Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor

The Blood-Drinking Mad Blade vanished into thin air, with no trace of its presence, leaving even the four great Immortal Emperors, including Kuron Immortal Emperor, puzzled.

However, being the supreme Emperor Realm experts of the Immortal Realm, they quickly deduced that there must be another Emperor Realm expert skilled in formations nearby who concealed the blade.

Thinking of formations, Kuron Immortal Emperor, Redflame Immortal Emperor, and Golden Eyes Immortal Emperor all turned their gaze toward Carefree Immortal Emperor.

Carefree Immortal Emperor frowned slightly, his gaze fixed on the spot where the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade disappeared, eyes flickering with contemplation.

"Carefree Immortal friend, have you discerned anything?"

Golden Eyes Immortal Emperor, with his impatient temperament, couldn’t help but ask when he saw Carefree Immortal Emperor remain silent for a long time.

Carefree Immortal Emperor ignored him and descended downward.

His landing point was precisely where Fang Bai had set up the Concealment Formation.

"Indeed, a Concealment Formation..."

A thousand years ago, Carefree Immortal Emperor was second only to the Emperor’s Palace Master in array mastery. Although Fang Bai set up an Emperor Rank Concealment Formation, his current cultivation level fell short compared to his past life, revealing flaws in the formation which Carefree Immortal Emperor quickly uncovered.

"This Concealment Formation is set with exceptional skill, beyond the capability of ordinary Emperor Realm experts... Who could this Immortal be?"

Carefree Immortal Emperor murmured to himself, quickly thinking of which Immortal Emperor in the present Immortal Realm might be adept in the Array Path.

"Could it be Thunderflame Immortal Emperor? I recall he had a good relationship with the Emperor’s Palace Master of old and learned some of the Array Path from him."

Redflame Empress remarked.

"It can’t be Thunderflame Immortal Emperor..."

Carefree Immortal Emperor shook his head, saying, "I once had dealings with Thunderflame Immortal Emperor. Though he learned some of the Array Path from the Emperor’s Palace Master, he was not proficient, and could never set up such an Emperor Realm Immortal Array."

As he spoke, he continuously cast formation symbols, attempting to unravel the Concealment Formation set by Fang Bai, only to find that its intricacy far exceeded his expectations, not as simple as it appeared.

His frown deepened, and suddenly his face changed slightly, exclaiming, "This formation... This formation..."

"What is it?"

Redflame Empress, never having seen Carefree Immortal Emperor so distraught, asked in surprise.

Carefree Immortal Emperor murmured, "This Concealment Formation must have been created by the Emperor’s Palace Master of old. Among various Concealment Formations in the Immortal Realm, it ranks supreme..."

Redflame Empress’s face also changed, her voice quivering, "How could it be him... He... He has been gone for a thousand years!"

Carefree Immortal Emperor glanced at her, took a deep breath, his expression quickly returning to normal, and then smiled self-deprecatingly, saying, "I was overthinking it... Indeed, this Concealment Formation before us was created by the Emperor’s Palace Master, but far less rigorous than what the Palace Master himself would set; otherwise, I wouldn’t have noticed it..."

Redflame Empress asked, "Do you mean..."

Carefree Immortal Emperor replied, "I surmise that the Immortal who set this formation should be a disciple of the Emperor’s Palace, most likely at the peak of the Immortal Emperor Realm..."

The three Emperor Realm experts, Redflame Empress, Kuron Immortal Emperor, and Golden Eyes Immortal Emperor, couldn’t help but glance at each other at this revelation.

If it were the once mighty Emperor’s Palace of a thousand years ago, these Immortal Emperors wouldn’t dare provoke it easily, but now that the Emperor’s Palace no longer exists and its hundred thousand disciples have been mostly wiped out by the pursuit of the top eight forces, they as Immortal Emperors have long since disregarded it.

What surprised them, though, was a disciple of the Emperor’s Palace daring to risk offending all four of the great Immortal Emperors to interfere in their affairs and seize the Emperor’s artifact.

"How outrageous! Those remnants of the Emperor’s Palace seem to have a death wish!"

Golden Eyes Immortal Emperor, arrogant by nature, had done many wicked deeds in the past. Later, he had an encounter with the traveling Emperor’s Palace Master of old who, although sparing his life, sternly admonished him.

At that time, the Emperor’s Palace Master’s power surpassed even the top eight Immortal Emperors, leaving Golden Eyes Immortal Emperor unable to contend. Anger was swallowed without a word, and his behavior became much more restrained, though he developed a hatred for the Emperor’s Palace in his heart.

However, after the Emperor’s Palace Master’s fall, his true nature resurfaced, and when encountering Emperor’s Palace disciples pursued by the top eight forces, he wouldn’t personally kill them but would inform the top eight of their whereabouts, causing many Emperor’s Palace disciples’ demise.

Now, with an Emperor’s Palace disciple intervening midway to seize the Emperor’s artifact coveted by the four great Immortal Emperors, his rage erupted, shouting threats and calling for blood.

"Of the thirty-six great generals of the ancient Emperor’s Palace, there were eighteen peak Immortal Emperor Realm experts. After the Emperor’s Palace’s fall, half of the eighteen such experts perished. I wonder which one seized the artifact..."

Kuron Immortal Emperor commented.

Golden Eyes Immortal Emperor retorted, "Does it matter which one? He’s seeking death, I’ll grant it to him!"

"No rush... No rush... Let me break this formation first..."

Carefree Immortal Emperor said, his palms weaving swiftly as he continuously cast symbols to unravel the seemingly intangible Concealment Formation.

Even though, in the eyes of Carefree Immortal Palace, the Concealment Formation wasn’t set personally by the Emperor’s Palace Master, it still took him nearly two hours to dismantle it.

Once the formation dissipated, a dense forest appeared before them, yet scanning with their Divine Sense revealed no trace of any Immortal presence within the woods.

"Used Earth Escaping Technique to flee..."

Carefree Immortal Emperor gazed at a spot within the woods that differed slightly from the surrounding terrain, smiling bitterly.

A peak Immortal Emperor Realm expert cannot tear through space, unable to traverse the Endless Space instantly to distances of a hundred thousand miles, so even in two hours, with full effort, they couldn’t have gone very far.

However, a peak Immortal Emperor Realm expert proficient in formations is very troublesome.

Carefree Immortal Emperor’s greatest concern was that the peak Immortal Emperor Realm expert might continuously set up similar Concealment Formations to confuse them during the escape, delaying their pursuit and seizing the opportunity to slip away easily.

By then, the four Immortal Emperors coveting the Blood Blade Imperial Artifact might very well end up with nothing, a wild goose chase.

"The Immortal shouldn’t have gotten too far, let’s split up to chase! Whoever catches up, the artifact is theirs! If that Immortal escapes... ha, none of us get it!"

Carefree Immortal Emperor decisively announced, then glanced around before flying toward the eastern skies.

The other three Immortal Emperors exchanged looks, then pursued in the south, west, and north directions respectively.

Just as Carefree Immortal Emperor anticipated, Fang Bai, during his escape, set up several Concealment Formations while leaving unique Emperor’s Palace disciple traces in various areas to confuse the four Immortal Emperors.

Although the four Immortal Emperors’ Divine Senses could cover tens of thousands of miles, Fang Bai was fleeing deep underground, concealing his aura, and proceeding cautiously, managing to evade their Divine Sense probes.

That day, he finally evaded the four Immortal Emperors’ pursuit, returned to the Immortal Palace beneath a lake with the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, and reunited with Tianzhi Immortal Emperor and other Emperor’s Palace disciples.
