Chapter 2507: Chapter 2507: Iron Fan
The eight top powers are embroiled in an internal conflict, causing chaos in the Immortal Realm.
This is precisely what Fang Bai hoped to see.
Only in this way can he seize advantages for himself in the midst of the chaos, thus creating favorable conditions and making full preparations for finding the Immortals from the Lower Realm, gathering the surviving disciples of the Emperor’s Palace, rebuilding the Emperor’s Palace, and taking revenge on the eight top-tier Immortal Emperors.
Fang Bai is not worried that the chaos in the Immortal Realm will be difficult to resolve in the future.
In his view, the current order of the Immortal Realm has long since collapsed, so it’s better to let it completely break down; rebuilding will be easier that way.
The saying "destruction precedes creation" exactly applies here.
Currently, among the eight top powers, each has an Immortal King or Immortal Emperor fallen at Fang Bai’s hands, dragged successfully into the turmoil by Fang Bai. Only the forces of the Red Lotus Immortal Emperor and the Flying Swan Immortal Emperor remain uninvolved.
This time, Fang Bai plans to impersonate a subordinate of the Red Lotus Immortal Emperor to slay the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor, a disciple under the Flying Swan Immortal Emperor.
The Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor is one of the most cherished disciples of the Flying Swan Immortal Emperor. If he falls, it will surely enrage the Flying Swan Immortal Emperor, which might lead to a conflict between the two top powers.
Now, Fang Bai’s cultivation level has reached the Half-Step Immortal Emperor Realm, and his combat prowess can rival that of an Intermediate-level Immortal Emperor such as the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor.
Thus, after concealing his presence, the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor is completely unaware of being tracked by Fang Bai.
The Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor had engaged in a lengthy battle with another expert of the Immortal Emperor Realm and, although he emerged victorious, he exhausted a significant amount of immortal power.
Therefore, after returning to his Immortal Residence, he activated an Isolation Formation to meditate and restore his strength.
By midnight, most immortals in the Demon-Slaying Immortal City had entered a state of cultivation. Fang Bai, hidden and lurking near the Immortal Residence of the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor, quietly released a wisp of his aura.
This wisp of aura was quickly detected by the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor.
"There’s an Emperor’s Palace disciple nearby!"
The Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor’s white eyebrows raised as he instantly broke free from his cultivation state, rushing toward the direction from which the aura emanated.
Simultaneously, Fang Bai’s figure turned into a stream of light, flying out of the Demon-Slaying Immortal City.
"Remnants of the Emperor’s Palace, where do you think you’re going?"
The Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor shouted, and auspicious clouds formed beneath his feet as he employed the art of flight, pursuing Fang Bai.
The disciples of the Flying Swan Palace cultivate the Wind System Immortal Technique Secrets; their flight techniques are highly advanced.
From the escaping aura of the Emperor’s Palace disciple, the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor knew that his cultivation level was Half-Step Immortal Emperor and thought to himself, if mere Half-Step Immortal Emperor manages to escape from me, I might as well reverse my title.
The two immortals, one pursuing and the other fleeing, left the Demon-Slaying Immortal City in an instant, reaching a thousand miles away.
The Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor put aside his contempt, and his expression grew serious.
He never imagined that an Emperor’s Palace disciple with only a Half-Step Immortal Emperor cultivation could fly with such great skill; even after chasing a thousand miles, he still hadn’t closed the distance.
The Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor thought that the Emperor’s Palace disciple must have cultivated some extremely advanced wind system secret technique.
"No matter how powerful you are, you won’t escape the palm of my hand!"
The Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor fully unleashed his wind system secret technique, his speed increased by several notches.
He absolutely couldn’t believe that a Half-Step Immortal Emperor Realm disciple from the Emperor’s Palace could be faster than himself, an Intermediate-level expert who specifically cultivates wind system immortal techniques.
Even in terms of comparing immortal power, a Half-Step Immortal Emperor Realm immortal can’t match an Intermediate-level Immortal Emperor expert.
Indeed, after flying several thousand miles and reaching the sky over a mountain area, the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor could clearly sense that the aura of the fleeing Emperor’s Palace disciple ahead was significantly weaker, evidently due to huge immortal power consumption.
Meanwhile, the distance between them was closing rapidly.
The corners of the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor’s mouth twitched slightly, revealing a disdainful smile.
"You can go to hell now!"
When Fang Bai was still a thousand feet away, the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor’s eyes gleamed as he struck with his right hand like a blade toward the void.
With his slashing motion, the void trembled violently, and a massive blade forged of Wind Immortal Qi whistled forth, shooting towards Fang Bai like lightning.
Fang Bai suddenly turned around, Wind Immortal Qi surging around him, and simultaneously unleashed a wind blade.
The speed at which he gathered Wind Immortal Qi and the power of the wind blade he unleashed both surpassed those of the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor.
"This... how is this possible? Could it be that he possesses a Dual Attribute Innate Spiritual Root?"
Seeing Fang Bai’s maneuver, the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor was shocked.
Earlier, seeing the Fire Immortal Qi around Fang Bai, he thought this was a disciple of the Emperor’s Palace cultivating fire system immortal laws. He never expected Fang Bai to suddenly unleash a wind system secret technique, and judging by the control over Wind Immortal Qi, it was even stronger than his own.
This left the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor, who had cultivated wind system immortal laws for tens of thousands of years, feeling incredulous and unable to believe it.
"Buzz!"
The two massive wind blades forged of Wind Immortal Qi collided in the void between the two immortals, making a dull sound that instantly darkened the space.
The powerful Immortal Qi shockwave, centered at the collision point, transformed into an astonishing wave, sweeping towards the four directions.
The wind blade unleashed by Fang Bai smashed through the wind blade of the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor with unstoppable momentum, maintaining its force, reaching right in front of the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor.
The Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor shouted, clapping his palms together, two waves surged out, enveloping Fang Bai’s wind blade and neutralizing it.
Although Fang Bai’s strike posed no substantial threat to the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor, it did frighten him into a cold sweat.
"How does a mere Half-Step Immortal Emperor possess such an astonishing combat ability?"
The Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor fixed his eyes on Fang Bai, considering him a formidable opponent he had rarely met in his life.
"Clang!"
With a resonant clang, the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor summoned an iron fan and casually tossed it into the air.
The iron fan, initially three feet in size, expanded rapidly with the wind, turning into a structure several dozens of feet large, flapping toward Fang Bai.
This iron fan is an Upper-grade Immortal Emperor Level Immortal Artifact; it was found by the Flying Swan Immortal Emperor in a Secret Realm and bestowed upon the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor, becoming his personal Immortal Artifact.
With this iron fan, the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor roamed the Immortal Realm, experiencing countless battles large and small, always coming out unscathed.
When he wielded the iron fan, the force of the wind it generated was as fierce as the gales blowing through Endless Space; immortals of equal cultivation level, without a powerful Immortal Artifact for protection, could scarcely withstand it.
The gales howled, and the wind’s force was knife-like.
The windstorm generated by the iron fan was like an invisible tidal wave that covered the sky and rushed towards Fang Bai.
In the blink of an eye, the void shook, dark clouds filled the sky, and the world turned dark.
At this moment, Fang Bai stood in the void, watching the incoming invisible waves, and felt like a lone boat in the sea, watching the overwhelming waves about to swallow him whole.
"This time, let’s see how you block this!"
The Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor grinned savagely, looking at Fang Bai as he was about to be engulfed by the windstorm.
The gales blew, completely engulfing Fang Bai’s form.
"The power of an Upper-grade Immortal Emperor Level Immortal Artifact is not something a mere Half-Step Immortal Emperor can withstand. This time, that Emperor’s Palace disciple will definitely be torn to shreds by the intense gales from the iron fan! Haha..."
Imagining the tragic scene of Fang Bai’s demise, the Wind Eagle Immortal Emperor couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
