First Immortal of the Sword

Chapter 1427 - Executing Immortals

Lie Wenzhong was dead!

It happened in a flash. Su Yi had exploded him to death in a single punch!

Three immortal revenants leaped in to save him, but not even they could save Lie Wenzhong’s life! But what startled the crowd most of all was that even now, no one could tell just what Su Yi’s cultivation boundary was.

All of this completely overturned their imagination. Prior to this, everyone had been certain that Su Yi dared come here to get even because he was relying on some killer weapon or powerful backer. The only possibility they’d never considered was that Su Yi would be so strong on his own!

Too terrifying!

It wasn’t just the distant onlookers. Even the immortal revenants were shocked ,and they found this difficult to accept.

A mere Cosmic Enlightenment World King! Even if he’s already stepped onto the Path of Transcendence, he’s still a full major realm away from immortal revenants, at the very least!

A young “World King” was able to kill immortal revenants. Who could possibly have accepted this?

This was absolutely unprecedented!

Su Yi’s tall, upright figure appeared amidst the dust and smoke. Even after killing Lie Wenzhong, he didn’t have so much as a hair out of place.

“So... that’s all immortal revenants amount to,” murmured Su Yi. His gaze was clear, his expression composed.

Even as he spoke, he stepped through the air and advanced upon the two men and one woman who’d tried to intercept him. After their attempt to save Lie Wenzhong, Su Yi naturally wouldn’t be polite.

“Die!” A man in imperial robes activated a Daoist seal and attacked Su Yi.

Meanwhile, a middle-aged man in purple and a colorfully dressed woman activated a treasure pagoda and a jade fan, then joined the man in imperial robes in surrounding Su Yi.

Boom!

Heaven and earth shook, and immortal light swept outward. The battle raged with increasing intensity.

After Lie Wenzhong’s example, none of the three immortal revenants dared to hold back. All of them unleashed the strongest methods at their disposal.

But Su Yi was still fighting barehanded!

He charged into the fray like a martial god of the mundane world, so forceful and tyrannical as to make even immortal treasures tremble. The three immortal revenants’ offensive soon broke.

Even one against three, he wasn’t at all at a disadvantage!

His majestic bearing triggered yet another uproar. All of the onlookers were astonished.

“Brother Luo, lead a group to help take him down. We’ll hold up the rear!” Feng Jinghai said gravely.

“Got it!” A Daoist in old-fashioned hemp clothing stepped forth. His hair and beard were unkempt, and he gripped a blood-red sword. His aura was austere and ferocious.

Luo Changyun, a sword immortal of the Profound Divinity Sword House!

He led a full five immortal revenants with him into battle. Together, they charged into the fray.

Now, nine immortal revenants had joined forces. Just how much power did that represent?

Boom!!

All types of immortal treasure shot into the air, scattering immortal light and displaying all manner of terrifying, unrivaled powers. Every last one of them descended upon Su Yi.

The dome of heaven caved in, and the skies were thrown into chaos.

The surrounding mountains and rivers collapsed, reduced to powder.

Without exception, the distant onlookers scampered away in panic, fleeing further away.

In the blink of an eye, Su Yi’s offensive had been suppressed, and he was now thoroughly surrounded. All he could do was passively defend himself!

“It took nine immortals working together to suppress Su Yi. If I wasn't here to see it with my own eyes, I could never believe something this preposterous!” someone exclaimed.

Numerous onlookers looked conflicted. They were overcome with astonishment.

“In ancient times, you could have searched everything both above and below the heavens, and you still wouldn’t have found anyone like him....” someone murmured.

“But today, he’ll still die beyond a shadow of a doubt!”

“Didn’t you notice? These are still dozens of immortal revenants who’ve yet to take action!”

...As the sounds of discussion filled the air, a yellow dog snorted disdainfully. “What a pack of fools. That kid hasn’t even drawn his sword yet!”

It wasn’t the only one to notice this. Feng Jinghai and the other immortal revenants noticed this too, and their brows tightly furrowed.

“Fellow Daoist Lu, lead a group to reinforce them. We have to suppress that whelp completely. We cannot give him the chance to struggle any further!” Feng Jinghai solemnly issued orders.

“Very well!” A youthful-looking man in white nodded his agreement. He was tall and thin, with a majestic, contemptuous bearing. His name was Lu Dongqiu, and he was among the greatest of the gathered immortal revenants.

He then proceeded to lead three immortal revenants into the fray.

All of a sudden, there were a full thirteen immortal revenants on the battlefield!

And Su Yi’s predicament was increasingly perilous.

“Dammit! How fucking shameless!” Mo Xinglin couldn’t help but curse.

“If they had any shame, would they have joined forces like this in the first place?” the dog said plainly. “But this only makes it all the more obvious how strong that punk is, don’t you think?”

Here, the dog suddenly cleared its throat, faced the distant immortals, and roared, “Hey you, the guys at the back, don’t just stand there! Attack all at once! Hurry up and beat that punk Su Yi to death!”

Its voice spread throughout the entire area.

Mo Xinglin facepalmed, a bitter smile on his face. If I didn’t know better, I’d assume Xing Que had some kind of deep-seated grudge against Su Yi.

Feng Jinghai didn’t move. There was far too much strangeness surrounding Su Yi, and it was hard to discern his true strength. Thus, they had to take things slowly and steadily!

Boom!

The battle raged with ever greater intensity.

Thirteen immortal revenants had joined forces, and their combined strength was far too terrifying. Su Yi was now under unprecedented pressure.

But this was exactly what he most wanted to see.

Clang!

The hum of a sword rang out as the Sword of the Human Realm landed in Su Yi’s grip.

Its simple, unadorned, deep blue blade now shone with stingingly bright light. Its hum swept forth like a wave, and its sword force shot into the heavens!

Everyone suddenly felt as if Su Yi were now an entirely different person.

Power coursed within him like the wind, rumbling like thunder. Every inch of his skin flowed with chaotic power, like an infernal abyss full of profundities upon profundities.

Before, he showed no sign of a cultivation base whatsoever.

But now, his majestic aura soared! He was like the sovereign of ten thousand Daos. His entire body overflowed with sword intent, bearing down on his surroundings and making both heaven and earth tremble.

We’ve finally forced him to draw his sword! Good! Feng Jinghai thought to himself.

But when that terrifying aura rose around Su Yi, Feng Jinghai couldn’t disguise his astonishment. Has he stepped onto the Path of Transcendence? But even if he did, how can a Nascent Divinity cultivator possibly have such heaven-defying power!?

Meanwhile, the thirteen immortal revenants’ surrounding Su Yi were visibly stunned. Their hearts shook.

There was no need for a discussion. All of them stepped up their offensive, attacking like mad in an attempt to suppress Su Yi’s bluster.

Boom!

All types of immortal treasures rumbled and boomed, and all manner of wondrous and profound immortal magics burst forth. Currents of destructive power blanketed heaven and earth and swept toward Su Yi.

The depths of Su Yi’s gaze shone with a hint of disdain. His opponents were gradually feeling out his abilities, but wasn’t he doing the same to them? Now, he’d roughly grasped their strength, so there was no longer any need to hold back!

“Break!” Su Yi shouted, leaped into the sky, and swung his sword.

Boom!

It was as if the sun were descending from beyond the nine heavens. Endless, tyrannical sword intent burst forth, crushing everything in its path. Nothing could stand in its way.

And when this slash landed, the immortals’ encirclement broke!

“This is bad!”

“How is this...”

Luo Changyun, Lu Dongqiu, and the other immortals were forced back. All of their faces filled with disbelief.

Just like that, their encirclement had broken. And after Su Yi broke through, he didn’t hesitate in the slightest to strike like lightning.

Boom!

The Sword of the Human Realm swept outward. Terrifying sword intent shattered the sky, slaying the wielder of the Daoist seal, the man in imperial robes, on the spot.

Crisp and direct!

Su Yi seized the opportunity to strike nine times in a single breath. Every slash was full of wondrous profundities, and each was starkly different.

One was like the river of stars pouring down from the nine heavens, blanketing the earth.

One was like divine flame refining the firmament, covering the sky and obscuring the sun.

One was like an immortal beating a divine drum with unrivaled forcefulness.

...

Streak after streak of sword qi shot across the battlefield, throwing the entire stretch of heaven and earth into chaos. It was a vision of collapse and devastation, like the descent of the apocalypse.

“No——!”

An immortal shrieked in terror as his treasure was sent flying. Boundless sword intent engulfed him, instantly reducing him to powder.

Bang!!!

A deafening impact rang out, and the colorfully dressed woman holding the fan suddenly split into pieces, as if horses were tugging her head and limbs in five different directions. She died instantly.

Meanwhile, another three immortals perished.

One was sliced to ribbons by the sword intent filling the sky. One was cleaved in twain, and another was stabbed through the head. Sword qi had torn a hole right through the immortal light defending him!

In the blink of an eye, six immortal revenants had died brutally. This bloody spectacle left everyone present astonished and rooted to the spot.

They would never have guessed that Su Yi would become so terrifying after drawing his sword. He was completely different from before!

Six of the thirteen immortal revenants had died in a flash. Although seven yet lived, all of them had taken varying degrees of injuries.

This was what it meant for your sword to suppress the entire battlefield!

The distant onlookers were all quivering from head to toe.

Too strong!

Perhaps he’d stepped onto the Path of Transcendence, perhaps not. Either way, here he was, killing immortals in rapid succession!

No wonder that tribulation was so calamitous and strange, as if someone had violated a taboo. No wonder even I felt terror and dread. The Path of Transcendence this kid has stepped onto is far too terrifying. Otherwise, how could he possibly possess such heaven-defying combat prowess?

The dog’s heart shook. It recalled the night Su Yi broke through, and how strange his tribulation had been. It was already starting to understand.

“Is Fellow Daoist Su... perhaps the reincarnation of an Immortal Lord?” Mo Xinglin looked dazed. He was so stunned that he completely forgot himself.

“The reincarnation of an Immortal Lord?” The dog suddenly recalled someone Daoist Master Red Cloud had brought up.

The Sword Fanatic!

He was once one of the ten Immortal Lords of the Central Immortal Palace, and he was considered the greatest legend of the sword in the Immortal Realm!

“Quick, attack together!” Feng Jinghai bellowed, no longer able to remain seated.

They’d never even considered the possibility that Su Yi would be this strong on his own!

Seeing Su Yi cut down immortals in rapid succession startled Feng Jinghai and the others into action. How could they dare remain uninvolved now?

“Kill him!”

“Don’t hold anything back! Take him down!”

......

The immortal revenants attacked en masse, their lineup enormous and grand. Their immortal might shook the heavens, and each activated their treasures as they charged into the fray.

Their force and momentum alone were enough to make everything within an eight-thousand-mile radius tremble. Heaven and earth changed color.

The distant onlookers once again retreated further away.

This time, even the yellow dog’s expression was uncharacteristically solemn. There are quite a few tough customers mixed in with these immortal revenants!

Mo Xinglin’s heart was on tenterhooks, and he instinctively blurted, “Your Excellency, if something really happens to Fellow Daoist Su, will you step in?”

The dog didn’t even pause to think. “Of course! Am I really supposed to stay out of this just because he said so? I’d have to be an idiot to do something like that!”

“....” Mo Xinglin didn’t quite know how to respond.
