The Evergreen Immortal Emperor didn’t know that he hasn’t seen the full extent of Qin Wentian’s true strength yet. He held back when he killed the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor and the others. If he displayed a strength that was too powerful, there would most probably be many people who would choose to turtle and hide away. This was why Qin Wentian had only displayed a strength that a peak-stage immortal emperor was capable of. The Southern Phoenix Matriarch and the others knew of Qin Wentian’s intentions, they didn’t say anything. Back then, there were simply too many major powers who wanted to hunt Qin Wentian down. These people who just died were merely the tip of the iceberg.
After the Ying Clan was annihilated, the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire, the Skymist Immortal Emperor, the Paragon Sword Emperor, the Taihua Immortal Lord and the others joined forces to destroy the Evergreen Immortal Empire but they were all completely exterminated. Such a piece of shocking news naturally couldn’t be hidden for long. Very swiftly, it circulated to the various peak powers of the immortal realms.
How had the Southern Phoenix Clan and the Evergreen Immortal Empire accomplished that? The news that was circulated out stated that back then in the past, when over half of the peak powers of the immortal realms gathered to hunt Qin Wentian, that supreme genius down, he actually didn’t die and had returned here alive. He also brought a group of immortal emperors that acted as his troops, dominating everything. His current cultivation base was at the peak-stage of the immortal emperor realm and he had transcendent combat prowess, effortlessly crushing even a character like the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor.
It was precisely because of Qin Wentian’s return that the Ying Clan was annihilated and the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire’s immortal emperors all died, alongside with the Skymist Immortal Emperor, the Paragon Sword Emperor and the Taihua Immortal Lord. These people were all leaders of their respective powers. Since they died, their subordinates, if there were any remaining, would naturally be dispersed as well because all their leaders had already been killed by Qin Wentian.
Countless people were shocked by this news. Qin Wentian had returned and became a killing god, seeking revenge.
No one suspected the authenticity of this matter. It was impossible to mask the fact that Qin Wentian has returned. He must have had a miraculous encounter and survived, possibly being sent to the other immortal realms before coming back here when he grew strong enough. Since he could already kill immortal emperors when he was at the immortal king realm, now that he was at the peak-stage of the immortal emperor realm, who in this world would be able to obstruct him?
After that, the Evergreen Immortal Empire and the Southern Phoenix Clan took the initiative to send out more news. If those major powers who participated in the war earlier all took the initiative to head to the Evergreen Immortal Empire and commit suicide, Qin Wentian was willing not to implicate their clans in his revenge.
There were also voices saying that those years ago, the death of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor’s son and the Violet Emperor’s nephew were all orchestrated by Qin Wentian. He wanted these two old dogs to take the initiative to head to the Evergreen Immortal Empire to die and he can let them die straightforwardly if they did so. As for Old Devil Duo Tian, he protected Eastern Sage and had once launched a sneak attack at Qin Wentian at the Demon God Mountain. Old Devil Duo Tian was to obediently crawl his way over to the Evergreen Immortal Empire and cripple his own cultivation. If he did that, Qin Wentian was willing to spare his dog life.
A single stone caused a thousand-story wave. A storm was rising in the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms.
Countless people found it hard to sleep, their hearts were filled with trepidation and an intense sense of terror.
Qin Wentian returned in such a domineering manner, helping the Southern Phoenix Clan to annihilate the ancient Ying Clan and aiding the Evergreen Immortal Empire to exterminate the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire, as well as the Skymist Immortal Emperor and the others. He even brought an army of immortal emperors back. Who would be able to block him from taking revenge?
That supreme unrivaled genius, he has returned. He used such an iron-blooded method to announce his return, telling the two peak-stage immortal emperors, Eastern Sage and the Violet Emperor to go to the Evergreen Immortal Empire to commit suicide. He also wanted the participants from the major powers those years ago to do the same.
There was only a single thing worthy of everyone’s focus right now in the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms. That focal point was none other than Qin Wentian.
There were those youngsters below the age of two hundred that didn’t know who Qin Wentian was. Hence, their elders all started to tell them about the legendary genius from those years ago. For a period of time, countless experts of the younger generation all looked up with respect to Qin Wentian, treating him like a symbol of faith, taking him as their target to surpass. In their eyes, Qin Wentian would even dare to tell the sun and moon to swap themselves, he could do anything.
In the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms, it was unknown how many people couldn’t eat or rest in peace after they heard the news.
In a mysterious mountain range of the immortal realms, a black-colored mist permeated the area. In the depths of this mountain range, an ancient looking palace could be seen. At this moment, a few figures soared through the air, directly landing in the palace’s courtyard.
“Ridiculous, that old fox is so crafty. To think that we actually failed to kill him.” The Violet Emperor icily spoke. This time, he, Old Devil Duo Tian and Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor acted together. They were three peak-stage immortal emperors and had joined forces to deal with a single man, yet they still failed to kill their target. Although they heavily injured their target, their target still managed to escape after all.
And the person they were targeting, was none other than their old opponent, Emperor Yu.
During these years, Emperor Yu was like a specter that kept haunting them. Eastern Sage had almost died quite a few times in Emperor Yu’s hands. This old fellow even pursued them to their headquarters and killed many people before vanishing without a trace. To them, Emperor Yu was nothing but trouble.
At this moment, a black-robed figure rushed in with great speed. He immediately bowed when he saw the three peak-stage emperors. “Master, Violet Emperor, Senior Eastern Sage.”
“What is it that made you so panicky.” Old Devil Duo Tian asked.
“Master, have you heard the news about the Evergreen Immortal Empire and the Southern Phoenix Clan?” That black-robed man asked.
“I initially wanted to go along with Nine-Emperors, Skymist and the rest to destroy the Evergreen Immortal Empire but was obstructed by that old thief Emperor Yu. I’ve been trying to hunt Yu down during these few days. Why? Don’t tell me that the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire and Ying Clan had failed to take down their targets?” Old Devil Duo Tian asked.
“Earlier, I was worried that Master had something important to handle outside and hence, I didn’t dare to disturb. But now that Master is back, this disciple immediately rushed here because I have an important matter to report to Master. The Ying Clan and the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire have been completely destroyed along with their allies, including the Skymist Immortal Emperor, the Taihua Immortal Lord, the Paragon Sword Emperor…” The black-robed man continued.
“What?” A terrifying aura gushed forth from Old Devil Duo Tian. The eyes of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor and the Violet Emperor gleamed with a fearsome glow as they stared at him.
“What’s going on?” Old Devil Duo Tian was as expected of a peak-level character, he instantly calmed down and asked.
“Qin Wentian has returned.” That black-robed man bowed.
“What did you say?” A cold intent radiated from the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor. “Qin Wentian?”
“Insolence. Qin Wentian was killed a hundred plus years ago. Are you telling me that he came back from hell?” The Violet Emperor also coldly spoke.
“Qin Wentian didn’t die. He has truly returned and even brought an army of immortal emperors back, helping the Southern Phoenix Clan to destroy the Ying Clan, and helping the Evergreen Immortal Empire to vanquished their foes. And…” The black-robed man hesitated, staring at the three of them.
“And what? Speak.” Old Devil Duo Tian spoke.
“This disciple doesn’t dare to.” The black-robed expert lowered his head.
“Just speak, I’ll pardon you.” Old Devil Duo Tian radiated an intense imposingness. That disciple trembled with trepidation, “And, Qin Wentian insulted senior Violet Emperor and Eastern Sage, saying that the deaths of Dongsheng Ting and Violet Emperor’s nephew in the past were orchestrated by him. He wants the two seniors to go to the Evergreen Immortal Empire to commit suicide and Master, if you go there and cripple your own cultivation base, he would spare your dog li…”
Upon feeling the immense pressure the three peak-stage emperors were radiating, the black-robed man no longer dared to continued speaking. Old Devil Duo Tian turned and glanced at the Violet Emperor and Eastern Sage. “That brat you guys wanted to kill truly has an extremely tough life. He actually didn’t die?”
“Impossible. Back then, everyone was present. He was truly killed, it is impossible for him to have survived.” The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor still didn’t believe it. However, he understood that this disciple wouldn’t dare to lie to them, let alone lying to his master Old Devil Duo Tian.
…
In the saint hall of the Sacred Sun Sect, many experts were paying their respects to their clan leader. However, the expression of the Sacred Sun Sect Leader now was extremely unsightly to behold. Back then, the Sacred Sun Sect had also joined in to kill Qin Wentian. And now, to think that Qin Wentian was actually still alive. This definitely wasn’t good news to them. What was even more terrifying was that Qin Wentian was not only incomparably strong himself, he even had an army of immortal emperors serving under him.
“Continue to monitor the situation in the Evergreen Immortal Empire and the Southern Phoenix Clan. Also, communicate with the other major powers who participated in the war against Qin Wentian back then to discuss a strategy.” The Sacred Sun Sect Leader gave the order, wanting ally with those other major powers once again. From this, it could be seen how highly he regarded this matter. He couldn’t not regard it highly because the Ying Clan and the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire were both destroyed. Not unless he had a death wish.
The elder of the Phoeroc Race, Ye Jiamo, was extremely enraged after he learned of this news. That heaven-devouring beast they were hunting was not dead yet and now, he even learned about the news of Qin Wentian being alive. Since Qin Wentian was still alive, he will simply make sure he dies one more time. Jia Yemo instantly contacted the Sun Gold Race, the Heavenhold Race, the void beast race and the White Tiger Race. Right now, these demonic races were all peak powers each governing an area. If they joined forces, their strength would naturally be extremely terrifying.
The Jiang Clan learned of the news the earliest. Because, they were also located in the southern regions, the same as the Southern Phoenix Clan and the Ying Clan. They would naturally pay attention to the battle of the other two peak powers. Hence, when the Ying Clan was destroyed, the Jiang Clan instantly felt that something was strange and they launched an investigation. After that, they almost instantly learned about the news that Qin Wentian has returned.
Right now in the great hall of the Jiang Clan, a group of immortal emperors stood together. An elder of the Jiang Clan glanced at them and asked, “What do you all think?”
“It’s good that Qin Wentian is still alive, we can let them fight and injure each other. In any case, our Jiang Clan won’t be participating in the crazy battles.” Jiang Zihua laughed, his deep eyes seemed capable of seeing through everything.
“Elder brother is right. Our Jiang Clan only needs to watch and act at the last moment, unifying the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms. It would be best if we can somehow make Qin Wentian and the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect clash.” Jiang Ziyu also agreed. Right now, Jiang Ziyu was already an initial-stage immortal emperor.
“Mhm, let’s watch and see for now.” The elder of the Jiang Clan nodded.
….
As for the other buddha-aligned power, the Askheart Temple, the monks there usually wouldn’t be bothered about external things. But now, someone was asking a Reverend who was seated inside a buddha hall this question, “Abbot, back then Qin Wentian was clearly killed. How did he come back alive again? Could it be because of reincarnation? But even if he reincarnated, it shouldn’t be so fast, right?”
The Reverend still had his eyes closed, as though he wasn’t surprised by this question at all. He calmly replied, “Sir Qin has fate with the buddha-path and the karma between has yet to conclude, he naturally wouldn’t die. Long ago, I’ve already said that the karma they planted then, would definitely have to be sowed some day. And now, retribution is coming for them.”
…
Right now inside the Senluo Great Hall of the Senluo Immortal Empire, the scene was different. The Senluo Immortal Emperor was as imposing as ever but right now, he was actually standing beside the throne. The throne wasn’t empty, someone else was currently sitting on it. The people below all knelt and paid their respects as they bowed, “We respectfully welcome the arrival of the esteemed envoy.”
“Mhm, the expert on the throne was extremely terrifying. His eyes swept through everyone, causing their hearts to be filled with trepidation. Even immortal emperors didn’t dare to incline their heads.”
“You guys have developed here for so many years but the Senluo Immortal Empire only has this much strength in the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms? This seat is seriously too disappointed. I heard that just a group of immortal emperors have already made all of you so afraid that you don’t even dare to fight. With such cowardice, how can our clan rule over Azure Mystic?” That envoy coldly spoke, his tone tinged with a heavy arrogance but no one present dared to refute it.
“Esteemed envoy, the combat prowess of that person is extremely high. In the past, he could already kill immortal emperors when he was just at the immortal king realm.” Someone below spoke.
“No matter how strong he is, he is ultimately an immortal emperor. For immortal emperors, they are like ants before this seat. Go and send someone and spread the word, tell him to scram over the Senluo Immortal Empire to beg for my mercy, Qin Wentian has to submit.” That envoy spoke, like he was talking about an extremely ordinary matter!
