Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 717: Chapter 60: So What If He’s the South Abyss Demon Emperor!

Yet in the next moment, he was stunned; his Instant Teleportation Technique had actually failed.

He saw, a thousand feet above them, a palm-sized cyan jade cup was hovering in the air,

emitting a faint spirit light.

"Void Treasure!"

The Thousand Crabs Demon Emperor was greatly shocked in his heart, as he had now lost his physical body, he was no longer a match for Zhou Xun,

and coupled with the failure of his Instant Teleportation Technique, even fleeing seemed hopeless. He could only fly away quickly, hoping to escape the area covered by the jade cup as soon as possible.

However, Zhou Xun’s escape speed made him reveal a sense of despair.

Zhou Xun’s thunder wings, with a span of four to five feet, unfurled behind him, with a single flap closing the distance between them,

with only one or two breaths needed to catch up to him.

Just as despair filled his heart, a black light beam came from afar, crossing space, and instantly appeared in front of Zhou Xun.

The earlier scene of the Thousand Crabs Demon Emperor’s defeat naturally fell into the eyes of the distant South Abyss Demon Emperor,

seeing his great general being beaten so miserably, even with his life at risk,

he unhesitatingly extended his assistance,

forming a seal with his hands and pointing at himself. His black horns shone with light between his brows,

and his Lifebound Divine Technique "Black Obsidian Profound Light" instantly activated, striking towards Zhou Xun.

Seeing this extremely familiar light beam, Zhou Xun instantly recognized it,

when he had just broken through to Nascent Soul, fighting that Black Island Demon Emperor, this divine technique was also unleashed,

but compared to the one before him now, its might was less than two-tenths of this one.

"South Abyss Demon Emperor!"

Zhou Xun was extremely angry in his heart, as the Thousand Crabs Demon Emperor was already within reach, yet he had to cease his actions,

focusing his efforts to defend against this strike!

With his body rapidly retreating, he pointed at himself,

instantly conjuring one thunder shield after another in front of him, with runes flickering upon them, indicating their extraordinary defense.

Just as the thunder shield took form,

"Boom!"

The black light beam collided with the shield, shattering it instantly, then the second, the third...

A full thirteen thunder shields, plus the Tier Four Middle-Grade Defense Talisman activated by Zhou Xun in time, barely managed to block this beam.

"As expected of the South Abyss Demon Emperor!"

At this moment, Zhou Xun glanced at the distant massive Ink Flood Dragon, a trace of apprehension on his face.

That strike just now required every means at his disposal for Zhou Xun to deflect it.

And at this time, the Thousand Crabs Demon Emperor took advantage of Zhou Xun’s defensive gap, accelerated his escape speed, and instantly left the cyan jade cup’s coverage range, and then used the Instant Teleportation Technique,

disappearing after a few flashes.

Failing by a margin, he almost managed to kill him!

Zhou Xun felt a sense of regret in his heart.

But this also successfully made him recognize his own strength,

still slightly lacking compared to a true Great Cultivator, but compared to those at the peak of Middle-Stage Nascent Soul,

Zhou Xun was a notch stronger.

"However, it’s not without some gain!"

Zhou Xun set his sights on that giant crab! With a flick of his hand, the huge body of the Thousand Crabs Demon Emperor floated to Zhou Xun’s presence.

With a hand seal, pointing towards it,

instantly, a pair of enormous pale golden pincers, and a set of green-brown battle armor, floated in place.

These were treasures refined by the Thousand Crabs Demon Emperor using parts of his body,

judging from the faint spiritual power waves they emitted, they were indeed at the High-Grade level.

Just those massive pincers, a light snip, and they would cut through the thunder chain transformed by his thunder seed, showcasing their extraordinary power,

as for that battle armor, it was astonishing in its defense, comparable even to his Profound Thunder Shield,

coupled with those eight long legs and the flesh imbued with Undying Immortality, it indeed counted as a major haul.

With a wave of his hand, he stored them in his storage bag,

by which time, victory and defeat were also determined between True Monarch Yama and the South Abyss Demon Emperor,

the immense black flood dragon, hundreds of feet long, now had its scale armor shattered, blood flowing freely, and even its aura had become extremely erratic,

"Well, well, well, worthy indeed of being Central Continent’s First Cultivator, I, Moh Mou, am impressed, today you won, we shall retreat!"

The South Abyss Demon Emperor spoke,

He had always heard about how powerful True Monarch Yama’s strength was, standing out even among Great Cultivators,

He had originally been skeptical, even until he was at a disadvantage last time, he remained unconvinced,

Only in today’s battle did he realize these words were no mere rumors,

He even had a feeling that if the battle continued, he might have a risk of falling.

Thinking of this, his heart couldn’t help but tremble with fear.

"Brother Moh, this defense line we’ve broken through, if we retreat now, it will be hard to take it back in the future!"

The cold-faced middle-aged man with double horns spoke.

"Yes, we..." the other banshee also began to speak, but was interrupted,

"No need to elaborate, this action is led by me, retreat!"

The South Abyss Demon Emperor stopped the two from speaking further, directly issuing the command.

In terms of numbers, the Demon Race indeed held a numerical advantage, yet above Tier Four, the gap between both sides wasn’t as significant,

And at the Tier Four High-Grade level, they weren’t opponents at all,

If they stayed here constantly, one or two out of the three of them would inevitably fall, by then even the defense line would be indefensible,

Rather, it would be best to retreat early!

True Monarch Yama felt the same way, with his presence, they could win the battles of top-level cultivators, but Human Race Cultivators in the Core Formation Stage or below would likely suffer heavy losses,

This led to an agreement with the South Abyss Demon Emperor for a single decisive battle, the loser retreats!

With the South Abyss Demon Emperor’s command, the demon army retreated like a tide, and True Monarch Yama watched the departing demons with a solemn expression.

At that moment, Zhou Xun approached True Monarch Yama and cupped his hands, saying, "Daoist Brother Yu, the demon race has finally retreated!"
