Chapter 2625: Leave Your Life Here
"Aoyue Immortal Emperor..."
Tianzhi Immortal Emperor looked at the giant man a hundred feet away, a sharp light bursting in his eyes, fury rising in his chest, and his fists clenched tightly.
It was this giant man, honored as the "Aoyue Immortal Emperor," who heavily injured a disciple of the Emperor’s Palace trapped in the Carefree Valley, leaving his life hanging by a thread and his fate unknown.
"A blood debt must be repaid with blood!"
Before coming to Carefree Valley, Fang Bai said this in a deep voice, also declaring the death sentence for Aoyue Immortal Emperor.
Just now, Aoyue Immortal Emperor was meditating in Carefree Valley when he suddenly sensed two unfamiliar auras breaking in, flying towards Carefree Valley. Moreover, this was a combination of an Immortal Emperor Realm Peak expert and a Mid-level Immortal Emperor Realm expert. He was shocked, immediately gathering a group of subordinates to meet them.
"Which immortals are you?"
Sensing the fury and killing qi from Tianzhi Immortal Emperor’s body, Aoyue Immortal Emperor instantly became vigilant, realizing that the other party was an enemy, not a friend.
The dozen or so immortals around Aoyue Immortal Emperor moved in an interlocking formation, already surrounding Fang Bai and Tianzhi Immortal Emperor, blocking all their escape routes.
Carefree Valley is a hidden place, imprisoning nearly two hundred disciples of the Emperor’s Palace. If the events here were to leak out, it would not only cause strong dissatisfaction among the eight top forces but also thoroughly offend the Emperor’s Palace disciples scattered throughout the Immortal Realm, dealing a huge blow to the reputation of the Carefree Immortal Emperor.
Therefore, Aoyue Immortal Emperor decided that under any circumstances, he could not let these two immortals in front of him go.
"Leave Aoyue Immortal Emperor to you, I’ll handle the rest!"
"Alright!"
Neither Fang Bai nor Tianzhi Immortal Emperor paid any attention to Aoyue Immortal Emperor. One summoned an Immortal Artifact, hurling it at Aoyue Immortal Emperor, while the other launched heavy fist shadows, simultaneously attacking the other dozen immortals.
The one launching heavy fist shadows was Fang Bai.
To rescue the disciples of the Emperor’s Palace imprisoned in Carefree Valley as quickly as possible, he made no reservations with this strike.
Among the dozen immortals of the Carefree Palace, aside from Aoyue Immortal Emperor, the rest were composed of initial and mid-level Immortal Emperor Realm experts. Although their overall strength was formidable, Fang Bai, with his ability to challenge across levels, unleashed a full-force strike with tremendous power, forcing those dozen immortals back instantly.
Laughing heartily, Fang Bai, moving like lightning, broke through the encirclement of the dozen immortals and fled towards Carefree Valley.
"Chase! Stop him!"
Aoyue Immortal Emperor was entangled by Tianzhi Immortal Emperor and couldn’t break free. In a fit of rage, he shouted loudly.
Seeing Fang Bai heading towards Carefree Valley, he knew that these two suddenly intruding immortals were there for the Emperor’s Palace disciples imprisoned inside.
From this, he also deduced that these two immortals must either be part of the eight top forces or Emperor’s Palace disciples.
Only these two forces would have the motive to break into Carefree Valley.
A dozen immortals immediately transformed into streaks of light, chasing after Fang Bai, leaving Aoyue Immortal Emperor to battle Tianzhi Immortal Emperor.
"Tian... Tianzhi Immortal Emperor! It’s you!"
When Aoyue Immortal Emperor clearly saw the Immortal Artifact summoned by Tianzhi Immortal Emperor, his eyes widened suddenly, filled with disbelief.
In the past, while traveling the Immortal Realm, Aoyue Immortal Emperor had met Tianzhi Immortal Emperor several times, so they were somewhat familiar with each other, which is why he recognized that Immortal Artifact.
Moreover, when Tianzhi Immortal Emperor summoned the Immortal Artifact to attack, the aura unique to an Emperor’s Palace disciple emanated from his body. Therefore, even though Tianzhi Immortal Emperor did not reveal his true face at this moment, Aoyue Immortal Emperor instantly guessed his identity.
"Heh..."
Tianzhi Immortal Emperor sneered coldly, his face twisted, speaking no words, and the momentum of his attack intensified.
Ever since knowing about the imprisonment of a large number of Emperor’s Palace disciples in Carefree Valley, he had hated everyone in the Carefree Palace, enduring for many years in Bluewater Immortal City, just waiting for a chance to rescue his fellow disciples.
Aoyue Immortal Emperor was responsible for guarding Carefree Valley and heavily injuring the Emperor’s Palace disciples. Upon hearing this, Tianzhi Immortal Emperor had long listed him as a sworn enemy to be killed in the future. Now that they met, he vented all his fury onto him.
Though Tianzhi Immortal Emperor’s realm and cultivation level were comparable to Aoyue Immortal Emperor’s, the Immortal Technique Secrets of the Emperor’s Palace were more powerful. Coupled with the fact that the Immortal Artifact Tianzhi Immortal Emperor used was crafted and refined by Fang Bai, he had the upper hand in combat power.
Aoyue Immortal Emperor’s concern was Fang Bai’s side; once those Emperor’s Palace disciples were rescued, the Carefree Immortal Emperor would never spare him upon return.
He wanted to break free and stop Fang Bai, but was suppressed firmly by Tianzhi Immortal Emperor. Furthermore, distracted, he almost got hit by the Immortal Artifact, breaking out into a cold sweat.
"Tianzhi Immortal Emperor... I will never make peace with you... I will tear you limb from limb... I... ah..."
Seeing Fang Bai rushing into Carefree Valley, Aoyue Immortal Emperor was both angry and anxious, his eyes blood-red, and he cried out loudly.
"Aoyue old man, for injuring my Emperor’s Palace disciples, leave your life here!"
Tianzhi Immortal Emperor, his face stern, eyes flashing with cold light, slammed down the Immortal Artifact, while simultaneously unleashing a Meteor Shower Fist.
......
Carefree Valley covers an area of a hundred Baili, with a dozen large and small Immortal Halls built in an orderly manner.
The central Immortal Hall, covering an area of ten Baili, is the largest but occupies the lowest terrain.
The rest of the dozen or so Immortal Halls are built in a ring around the valley, forming an encircling force around the central Immortal Hall.
If an Array Master were here, they would find that the central Immortal Hall is isolated from the outside by several layers of formations. Unless proficient in formations, the immortals inside the hall could not take a single step out without breaking these formations one by one.
Fang Bai’s figure landed inside Carefree Valley, his gaze immediately fixed on the central Immortal Hall. His Divine Sense penetrated through the layers of formations, sensing nearly two hundred auras belonging solely to the Emperor’s Palace disciples.
"They should all be here..."
Fang Bai murmured, about to step forward to break the formation and enter.
At this moment, a dozen immortals from Carefree Palace landed around him, once again surrounding him.
"Leave no one alive!"
Fang Bai said coldly, without pausing, continuing forward.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
The sound of wind sharply whistling, as Wuheng, Wuji, Wuyin, and Wuzong—the four High Rank Immortal Emperor Realm experts turned into Puppet Corpses by Fang Bai—appeared around him out of thin air, and then launched attacks on the somewhat stunned immortals of Carefree Palace.
The four High Rank Immortal Emperor Realm experts turned into Puppet Corpses, facing the dozen initial and mid-level Immortal Emperor Realm experts, held an overwhelming advantage. Amidst the rising and falling screams, several Carefree Palace immortals were slain and perished, and the rest, seeing the situation turning unfavorable, fled, trying to escape.
However, this array had been altered by Fang Bai and was no longer the Immortal Array they were familiar with. They couldn’t decipher it, so where could they escape?
Before a hundred breaths passed, the dozen Carefree Palace immortals fleeing in all directions were all slain by the four Puppet Corpses.
By this time, Fang Bai had also broken the several layers of formations outside the central Immortal Hall in the valley, standing before its gates.
Fang Bai took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement, his hands pushing forward in a virtual gesture. An immortal power pushed the hall doors open, and then he stepped inside.
