Eternal Life as False Emperor

Zui Jiu transmitted a message to all the Golden Core Cultivators: "In a moment, I will take you away. Do not resist my divine power."

Hearing this news, all the Golden Core Cultivators secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

This battle had progressed to a point that was entirely unexpected, and they had long since wished to stop fighting.

Originally, they thought that with one Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator leading the team, plus twelve Golden Core Stage Cultivators, it was already an incredibly formidable force.

Even if they couldn’t walk horizontally across the land of the Nether Spirit Race, the forces that could rival them wouldn’t be too many.

Moreover, even if they had to retreat ten thousand steps, it wasn’t absolutely necessary to fight to the death.

Everyone was a Golden Core Cultivator, and after striving for so long, seeing the Dao almost within reach, who wouldn’t want to achieve divinity and step onto the true path to the heavens?

In this regard, the Nether Spirit Race cultivators had the same thought.

But what they hadn’t expected was that the situation would develop so far beyond their anticipation.

First, the opposing Divinity Transformation expert directly issued a kill order against a small fellow they had rescued.

This didn’t overly concern the Golden Core Cultivators.

Simply because none of them knew the true origins of Zheng Yi, and this guy wasn’t a member of the Canglan Realm Cultivator Sect.

When they came to rescue, this person wasn’t even on the must-save list.

If conditions allowed, the Golden Core Cultivators wouldn’t mind rescuing this human on the side.

But in an emergency, at worst, let the Nether Spirit Race kill the boy.

However, this boy astonishingly forced his way into the battle of these Golden Core Cultivators.

With a wave of taunting, he drove Huiyue Demon Monarch to madness, stepping directly into their encirclement.

He insanely ignored their attacks and resolutely attempted to kill this strange human cultivator.

Let alone Huiyue Demon Venerable, a few of them with less steadfast Dao Hearts were also driven to murderous impulse.

Truly, Zheng Yi’s mouth was too fearsome.

This brat seemed to be able to see into the deepest secrets people wished to hide, making one feel chills down their spine.

And the battle situation took a turn for the worse after Huiyue Demon Venerable’s death.

He was merely an early-stage Golden Core cultivator with seemingly not much power; how could he drive these Nether Spirit Race cultivators so insane?

The conversation between Resentment Book Demon Monarch and Zui Jiu wasn’t concealed from anyone.

But those humans involved in fierce battle didn’t hear their content.

If they knew that Huiyue Demon Venerable’s father was Azure Moon Flame Emperor, one of the three Enlightenment Masters of the Nether Spirit Race, they wouldn’t find it so strange.

If it were them, and the offspring of a human Enlightenment Master they protected was accidentally harmed to death...

Their reaction would likely mirror that of these Nether Spirit Race cultivators.

In any case, they were already without a way out; if a desperate struggle could avenge the victim...

The Enlightenment Master might only demand their lives as payment, without involving their families.

One party had resolved to perish, while the other was frightened by their resolve; the outcome of the battle was obvious.

Now that Zui Jiu was proposing to take them away, they were naturally overjoyed inwardly.

Zheng Yi had been observing the performances of these Golden Core experts.

One could say, aside from Master Qinghui of Yunling Temple and the Four Great Vajra, everyone’s hearts were unsettled.

After Zui Jiu transmitted his message, their restlessness increased.

Zheng Yi had completely seen through these Golden Core experts.

Apart from greater strength, their temperament was no different from ordinary cultivators.

In terms of temperament alone, the elite soldiers of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty were probably far superior to these Golden Core cultivators.

"Senior Zui Jiu, stabilize their minds; under no circumstances should the Nether Spirit Race spot any flaw."

Zui Jiu glanced at Zheng Yi with a thoughtful expression, secretly amazed: "What exactly is this kid? Why is his mind so meticulous?"

"Is it because he’s a key disciple groomed by his sect, making his mind so intricate?"

"Or are people like him common within his sect?"

The thought of such a possibility gave Zui Jiu an involuntary shudder.

He even faintly considered silencing him.

A Little Demon like Zheng Yi wasn’t much in small numbers.

But if there were many, the entire Canglan Realm might become chaotic because of them.

More importantly, what if the sect elders of Zheng Yi came to the Canglan Realm?

Not only would those people possess monstrous cunning but also terrifying strength.

Zheng Yi never expected that the frivolous Zui Jiu had considered so far ahead in a brief moment.

If he knew, he would certainly tell Zui Jiu he was overthinking; those things were merely made up by him.

Seeing Zui Jiu dazed and lost in thought, not knowing what he was thinking, Zheng Yi hurriedly reminded him: "Senior, the situation is urgent."

It was only then that Zui Jiu snapped back to reality, breaking out in a cold sweat.

In just that brief instant, he almost fell into the Demonic Path.

Quickly clearing his throat, he instructed: "Everyone, steady your minds; do not let those Nether Spirit guys spot the flaw."

Fortunately, Master Qinghui and the Four Great Vajra remained stable throughout.

The others hid behind them, constrained, making the Nether Spirit Race cultivators think they were merely scared.
