Chapter 1392: Sons of the Eastern Sage
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
The war has already started, even if the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor knows that there are spies, there was already no time to ferret them out.
Also, leaving aside the issues of spies, that immortal king assassin used such a top-tier assassination technique that even the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor had no way to clearly sense him. When the assassin stepped into the void, the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor instantly knew that that immortal king had a unique law domain. When coupled with assassination techniques, that law domain was truly extremely terrifying.
That peak-stage immortal king proficient in the spiritual illusion attacks was killed so quickly in that short instant. Not only that, the assassin didn’t stop, he immediately entered the void once more and when he appeared again, a mid-stage immortal king was already killed by his sword. Fresh blood splattered across the sky and this scene made the immortal kings of the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect tremble from terror as they felt a chill in their hearts.
Not only do they have to battle, they still had to be on guard against such a powerful assassin. There was simply no way to give it their all on the battlefield. The pressure on the immortal kings of the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect were instantly lifted.
Swishing sounds rang out as two more immortal kings were assassinated. Not only for the immortal kings of the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect, even the assassin’s allies felt a shiver down their spines. Luckily, this assassin was on their side or they would truly be in an extremely miserable state. With such skill, even peak-stage immortal kings would find it tough to defend against it. There was no need to say anything about mid-stage and initial-stage immortal kings, they would all die with just a single strike.
“There are no powers among the eastern regions that can produce and nurture such a powerful assassin immortal king. The Southern Phoenix Clan cannot either.” The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor’s expression was extremely ugly to behold. The strength of a peak-stage immortal king assassin was fully displayed on the battlefield.
“Eastern Sage, I warned you before this that for immortal-king level battles, superiority in numbers cannot prove anything. An extremely powerful immortal king can easily control the situation.” The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord calmly spoke. “As for his origins, can the major sects only teach disciples based on fixed paths? Each individual has his own talent and comprehension. The path an individual should walk, should be dependant on him alone. Others can guide him and show him the way, but ultimately, it would still depend on the individual himself as to what path he wants to walk.”
“A total of four persons. You prepared four peak-stage immortal kings with unique abilities and there are so many immortal kings with masks on. I’m really very curious where do they come from?” The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor coldly spoke. The four he was referring to, other than Tuoba Saintsky who was in Qin Wentian’s battlefield, and other than that assassin hiding in the void, there were two other extremely powerful immortal kings at the other battlefields. The strength of those two was exceedingly strong. One emphasized on being the main attacker while the other could increase the combat strength of those around him, somewhat similar to one of the top-notch experts he prepared.
Given how strong these four are, in addition to those from the Battle Saint Tribe, they became the key figures of the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect and were existences who could determine whatever happens on the battlefields.
However, this was the battlefield for immortal kings. If they pay attention to the immortal-foundation level battles, although the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect had the advantage, both sides already had heavy casualties. If they continued on, nobody knew how many deaths there would be.
“Eastern Sage, why don’t you withdraw your troops? You wouldn’t be able to gain victory against my Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. If we continue fighting, even if the thirteen prefectures don’t have my Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect, your Eastern Sage Immortal Sect would be weakened by such a large extent that other major powers might covet the thirteen prefectures.” The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord spoke when he saw so many people dying with every instant. The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor had a gloomy expression on his face.
Withdrawing his troops? This time, his Eastern Sage Immortal Sect came here in such an impressive manner, confident in their victory for sure. Bringing with them their resolute belief, they wanted to eradicate the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect completely and reunify the thirteen prefectures.
If they retreat just like that like a cowardly rat, their attack this time around would fade to nothing but froth and shadows. There was no longer meaning in them taking back the five other prefectures. In addition, his Eastern Sage Immortal Sect would also become a joke in the immortal realms and the momentum would completely be with the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. In the future, for any clash they might have, they would no longer possess the initiative.
“The Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect has to be destroyed no matter what.” The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor coldly replied. The cruel war continued, and the four immortal king-level battles were fought in the air, with the immortal-foundation level being fought on the ground in the capital itself.
An immortal war has always been extremely cruel. It was unknown how many experts would fall. For those who struggled so hard to reach the immortal-foundation realm, they were nothing but cannon fodder in a war like this. For lofty immortal kings, they had a chance to die in battle as well simply because, this war, was orchestrated by immortal emperors.
In the air, another group of experts appeared. They directly went to the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor’s location as they all greeted, “Royal father!”
“You guys go choose your own battlefield.” The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor spoke. The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord glanced at these figures as he spoke, “Eastern Sage, you even dare to send all your sons to participate in this war? You truly want to leave no road for retreat, don’t you? Wanting victory at all costs. If your sons died in this war, wouldn’t you go crazy from anger?”
“Battles of life and death can be treated as a tempering exercise. What’s more is the fact that they won’t die so easily.” The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor coldly spoke. All his sons glanced at the battlefield as they advanced forward. Dongsheng Yin, as the eldest son of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor, was exceedingly powerful. He directly walked towards the battlefield Qin Wentian was in, intent on killing Tuoba Saintsky.
At this moment, Tuoba Saintsky was currently fighting against Paragon Golden Cauldron. Their battles were exceedingly intense. Dongsheng Yin arrived and instantly joined the fight, punching out his fist, causing demonic dragons to form as they lunged with ferocity towards Tuoba Saintsky.
Other than Dongsheng Yin, another son of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor walked to the same battlefield. Dongsheng Kun, he is also extremely powerful and is now at the mid-stage of the immortal king realm.
“Seems like the old dog Eastern Sage is truly going all out wanting to destroy the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect.” When he saw this scene, Qin Wentian’s expressions turned cold. Back then, he once killed the youngest son of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor, Dongsheng Ting, causing the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor to be extremely enraged. However, the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor had many children. His eldest son was especially powerful and has already reached the peak-stage of the immortal-king realm. In addition, he had emperor-ranked armor and weapons, and could truly be compared to an immortal king at the absolute pinnacle.
Qin Wentian now was killing initial-stage immortal kings and had already hunted down many. In such a chaotic battlefield, it was very easy for either side to hunt down their opponents as the immortal kings are all looking for enemies as the same level as them. Usually, higher-levelled immortal kings wouldn’t act against lower-levelled immortal kings because taking down an opponent on the same level as them was far more effective to gaining victory compared to wiping out a few low-levelled immortal kings.
At this moment, Qin Wentian could be seen using another strike to finish off an initial-stage immortal king. Dongsheng Kun came into the vicinity and glanced over. His eyes flickered with a cold light as he rushed towards Qin Wentian. Only a few moments passed before he stood right in front of Qin Wentian, blocking Qin Wentian from any further slaughter.
The eyes that were the only part of his countenance revealed from Qin Wentian’s mask, were gleaming with a cold light. A son of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor?
Dongsheng Kun released his law domain. As a mid-stage immortal king, although he was just in the early-phase, his law domain was already extremely terrifying. It contained the ability to rip everything to pieces. Sage light erupted around him as his bloodline power was activated. His aura was tyrannically powerful, unbelievably strong.
“Kill!” Dongsheng Kun coldly shouted. The violent ripping windstorm gushed towards Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian’s expression turned heavy. Runic light covered his body, his physique was as strong as a true fiendgod, unexcelled in this world. That ripping law-energy had no way to break apart the defensive law energy enveloping him.
This scene caused Dongsheng Kun to frowned. An initial-stage immortal king actually was able to block his law attack?
“RUMBLE!” A thunderous explosive noise filled the air. Dongsheng Kun raised his fist, flaring with sage light as his fists broke through space, sweeping through everything. The fist light was extremely blinding and was infused with the laceration-law attribute, capable of ripping everything apart.
This fist strike directly tore into the void. Qin Wentian had no way to react, he could only circulate his law energy wildly in response. Lifting his palm, he slammed out, forming a destructive palm imprint that came into contact with the fist strike. The impact forced Qin Wentian back several steps. Devil might churned wildly around him as a devil saber materialized in his hand.
“Mhm?” At this moment, Paragon Golden Cauldron glanced over. “Be careful, he is the man who came to challenge our Eastern Sage Immortal Sect’s armies before. His saber arts are extremely bizarre.”
Earlier, after getting information from Paragon Sky Roc, Paragon Golden Cauldron instantly understood that Qin Wentian’s group hasn’t merely challenged his army. He also went to challenge Paragon Sky Roc’s army. Hence, the people of the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect already knew of his existence. After all, this masked man was the one who killed Wang Yu, the personal disciple of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor.
“Chi…” Qin Wentian directly cleaved down with his saber. The entire area churned with devil might as his saber slashed out towards Dongsheng Kun.
Dongsheng Kun punched out with his fist as waves of brilliant light flooded the area, negating the saber strike.
Qin Wentian didn’t hesitate and continued slashing out with a second strike. The devil light in the area grew more violent. Clouds swirled about wildly amidst destructive might as well as a sharp saber intent.
“BOOM!” Dongsheng Kun stepped out with indomitable force, chaining his punches together, causing the space around him to rumble. A burst of sage light bloomed as his fist might grew even stronger.
Heaven collided with earth once more as the saber light was destroyed together with the fist light. The amount of power was simply shocking.
Boundless amounts of devil might infused Qin Wentian’s devil saber. With a thunderous strike, it’s overwhelming might swept over everything, wanting to kill Dongsheng Kun.
Dongsheng Kun seemed as though he wanted to see how strong Qin Wentian’s saber strike was exactly. He domineeringly took a step forward and howled in anger. His fist attacks stacked upon each other, breaking through everything, shattering the saber attack once more.
Qin Wentian inclined his head, his eyes flashed with a demonic light. An overwhelming supreme saber intent was formed from the devil might. This saber intent seemed to possess sentience and was humming malevolently.
“The fourth saber strike?” Dongsheng Kun coldly spoke. His fist shadows covered the sky as he unleashed his clan’s technique, the Sage Fist Art.
“DIE!” Qin Wentian roared. As his saber arced down the air, Dongsheng Kun only felt a destructive devil saber manifesting within his soul. After that, the humming devil saber directly streaked by, avoiding the fist shadows as it continued towards Dongsheng Kun.
“Careful!” The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor glanced over. In the next instant, a moment before the strike landed, an armor of darkness automatically appeared, covering Dongsheng Kun. This armor of darkness seemed to be made from dragon scales. It gleamed with a bright light, diffusing the attack power but the impact still sent Dongsheng Kun flying through the air!
