Chapter 958: Chapter 906-Chapter 907 Strangling True Immortal Seedlings? Emergence!_2
When warriors meet on a narrow path, the brave one wins; faced with a dead end, he did not shrink back or hesitate, bursting forth with a power far surpassing his previous display.
“Hmm? Truly a prodigious talent, this sword strike has already touched upon the domain of the Immortal Path,” Blood Fiend Ancestor noted the prowess of the sword strike, admiration flickered through his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a chill, “However, Dragon Tiger Mountain already has an Ancestor Celestial Master who ascended to being a True Immortal; it does not need a second one, especially not now.”
He acknowledged that Bai Qicang had great talent, and based on their hand-to-hand combat, it was highly likely he could step onto the Immortal Path if he continued to refine his skills.
But Blood Fiend Ancestor was not willing to see him succeed because, in his view, Bai Qicang should not ascend to immortality, at least not presently.
The emergence of various True Immortals had actually formed a balance, and if Dragon Tiger Mountain produced another True Immortal, that balance would be broken, especially between the Demonic Way and the Righteous Path.
Boom!
The Sea of Blood surged even more violently, with giant waves thousands of feet high crashing down toward Bai Qicang. This time, Blood Fiend Ancestor was not holding back, no longer treating it as a mere jest like before.
Even if he did not kill Bai Qicang outright, he meant to severely injure him, to nip this True Immortal seedling of Dragon Tiger Mountain in the bud and at the very least prevent his adversary from having the chance to attain enlightenment in the short term, maintaining the balance of power between righteousness and demons of the human race.
“Many supreme strong beings joined forces to seize the Spirit Realm Cave Sky, walking the path of Earth Immortals together?”
“Zhu Houji found a top Spirit Realm Cave Sky left by the Ancient Human Race Ruler and used it to enter the Strongest Realm, but was thus besieged by many supreme strong beings, leading him to seek help from the Shenxiao Sect.”
“Pang Hong and Deer Elder went together, and they had you invite many powerhouses to make a move, using this opportunity to probe the attitudes and thoughts of these forces?”
“Though they have repelled many besieging powerhouses, the arrival of the demonic giant Blood Fiend Ancestor’s True Immortal avatar was provoked.”
“Bai Qicang, disciple of the Ancestor Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain, challenges the Blood Fiend Ancestor.”
…
When Pei Xuanjing had digested the gains from his recent life simulation, he did not continue to seclude himself but dispatched an avatar to leave the Shenxiao World Domain and descend upon Shenxiao Mountain.
After all, ever since his Ascension, he had been in seclusion; these hundred-odd years must have witnessed many changes and significant events in the world, so he wanted to understand what had transpired over this century.
What he did not anticipate was, just as his avatar descended upon Shenxiao Mountain, he happened upon Master Yu Zhenzi returning from his mission.
Master Yu Zhenzi was equally thrilled and excited to see Pei Xuanjing emerge from retreat; one reason being that it had been over a century since they last saw Pei Xuanjing, and another was that his appearance undoubtedly lifted a weight off their shoulders.
You see, even though Pang Hong’s mission to rescue Zhu Houji was meticulously planned and didn’t result in any significant accidents, Master Yu Zhenzi and the others knew there were still several lingering risks.
Without delving into details, the very fact that so many powerhouses had gathered was a force to be reckoned with in the world, but if they encountered the interference of a True Immortal avatar, what then?
Powerhouses, however formidable they might be, are still mortal beings, and when faced with the transcendent and indomitable existence of True Immortals, even the avatars of True Immortals could not necessarily be taken lightly.
It could be said that Pang Hong’s plan was sound, but everything hinged on True Immortals not intervening. Should a True Immortal emerge and decide to involve themselves in the affair, all his schemes would become fruitless and meaningless.
Even against the machinations of powerhouses, True Immortals possessed the ability to overturn the whole situation.
Thus, Master Yu Zhenzi was deeply concerned, and the subsequent news of Blood Fiend Ancestor’s avatar’s descent undoubtedly confirmed his worries.
He was about to convey that if the situation really became untenable, they should consider withdrawing; after all, as a sect with True Immortals to rely on, if they chose to step back, they definitely wouldn’t be too extreme.
As for the importance of this Spirit Realm Cave Sky, however extraordinary it might be, it pales in comparison to life itself, and survival is key. As long as they live and preserve themselves, opportunities are plentiful.
Of course, now that she saw her Sect Leader emerge from seclusion, all of Yu Zhenzi’s original worries disappeared without a trace, and even if the Blood Fiend Ancestor made a move, she suddenly felt as though it would be nothing to fret over.
This stemmed from her trust and admiration for her own Sect Leader. In the eyes of Yu Zhenzi and many other disciples of the Shenxiao Sect, their Sect Leader, True Monarch Shenxiao Pei Xuanjing, was an invincible existence, a being who could defeat any opponent.
“Sect Leader…” Yu Zhenzi did not hesitate to recount the entire course of events. From beginning to end, there was no concealment or omission, not even regarding their plans and calculations against Pang Hong. It was all laid out in great detail as she didn’t want to disrupt Pei Xuanjing’s judgment.
As for Pei Xuanjing, who originally wanted to understand the changes that had taken place in the world during the past hundred years or so, he did not expect to encounter this kind of situation right after coming out of seclusion. After listening to Yu Zhenzi’s account, he was no longer eager to find out about other matters.
“Well then, since the Blood Fiend Ancestor has made a move, I might as well join in the excitement.” A smile appeared on Pei Xuanjing’s face as he said, “Ever since ‘I’ ascended to True Immortal, ‘I’ have been wanting to find a Taoist friend to spar with.”
After he finished speaking, Pei Xuanjing’s avatar dissipated, and then he turned into a bolt of lightning and left Shenxiao Mountain.
…
Bai Qicang’s face was filled with shock; he originally thought that his all-out strike, even if it couldn’t win, should have been enough to injure the Blood Fiend Ancestor’s avatar and buy himself a slim chance of survival.
But when the Blood Fiend Ancestor struck again, he sharply realized the terror of a True Immortal. His everything was utterly insignificant in front of the opponent.
Even though Bai Qicang had already touched the domain of the Immortal Path, his sword strike was so insignificant in comparison to the boundless Sea of Blood that he couldn’t contend with it.
“Could it be that I am going to die here!” A chill couldn’t help but rise in Bai Qicang’s heart.
With his pride, he never imagined that he would have such thoughts.
No!
I will never admit defeat! Even in death, I am not willing to accept such an outcome.
He made up his mind, ready to burn his Primordial Spirit. Even facing death, he would fight desperately and not submit without a struggle.
At that moment, a gentle force descended from the sky, passing through the vast Sea of Blood; the terrifyingly tall Sea of Blood seemed to have no power to stop this force.
Soon after, a voice rang out, clearly reaching the ears of every cultivator around.
“There’s no need to bully the weak, Taoist friend.” Pei Xuanjing’s voice sounded, shortly followed by the appearance of his avatar in the midst of the boundless Sea of Blood. A gentle power protected Bai Qicang, withstanding the endless onslaught of the Sea of Blood, leaving the two of them unharmed.
“True Monarch Shenxiao!” The figure of the Blood Fiend Ancestor became distinguishable within the Sea of Blood, a fierce glint passing through his eyes as he said in a deep voice.
“To bully the weak, if this youngster dares challenge the Ancestor, he must be prepared to bear the consequences. The old Taoist from Dragon Tiger Mountain has not appeared yet, and you intervene—is it your intention to oppose the Ancestor?”
The Blood Fiend Ancestor’s expression was displeased as he questioned sharply, though, in his heart, he was also secretly weighing up whether to agree if Pei Xuanjing truly intended to save Bai Qicang.
Pei Xuanjing chuckled lightly, unfazed, and spoke gently, “Master Bai is a talented individual of the human race, with the potential to become immortal. If he were to fall here today, it would be a great loss to the human race. Why should the Ancestor lower himself to the level of a junior?”
Although Bai Qicang was much older than Pei Xuanjing by many years, age was trivial to cultivators who esteemed the accomplished, and since they were not from the same sect, Bai Qicang felt no discomfort being addressed as a junior by Pei Xuanjing, nor did the surrounding spectators find it inappropriate.
On the contrary, those watching felt admiration for True Monarch Shenxiao’s willingness to save Bai Qicang, praising his benevolence.

“Hehe, since the True Monarch has spoken, the Ancestor will give you this face,” the Blood Fiend Ancestor unexpectedly agreed after hearing Pei Xuanjing’s words.
This turn of events surprised many people, as the behavior of the Blood Fiend Ancestor in the world was notoriously inflexible.
