Yet before the absolute power of the Chaos Bell, all resistance seemed so futile!
“Pfft!”
“Pfft!”
“Pfft!”
As the bell wave swept past, the black demonic shield offered up by one Immortal King shattered in an instant, and his true body was shaken into a mist of blood along with it!
Like wheat being cut down!
With only a single sweep of the bell wave, the two Immortal Kings at the very front were instantly annihilated in both body and soul!
Not even the slightest remnant was left behind!
Silence!
Deathly silence!
Whether in the Immortal Realm or the Foreign Realm, every being who witnessed this scene seemed to have been seized by the throat, unable to utter a single sound!
One strike!
Only one strike!
And he had slain two Immortal Kings?!
What terrifying strength was this?!
Was this truly power an Immortal King could possess?!
The kings of the Immortal Realm were dumbstruck, looking at Lu Xuan as though they were gazing upon a living legend. The complicated feelings they had harbored before had long since been replaced by boundless shock.
The remaining Immortal Kings of the Foreign Realm were even more frightened out of their wits. Their offensive came to a complete halt, and they involuntarily retreated, their gazes toward Lu Xuan filled with endless terror.
This fellow was several times more terrifying than the legends said!
King Chi and Wushang’s expressions darkened to the extreme, stormy waves surging in their hearts.
They finally understood why Ao Sheng and the other two had fallen into this man’s hands!
The might of this mysterious ancient bell had completely exceeded their understanding!
“Who exactly are you?!”
King Chi’s voice carried a trace of dryness.
Even a giant-level powerhouse could not slay two great Immortal Kings with a single strike.
One had to know that experts at the level of Immortal Kings were forces that could not be ignored in any ancient realm!
Yet now, they had been killed by Lu Xuan so easily!
Lu Xuan did not answer. He merely slowly raised his hand. The Chaos Bell rotated slightly in his palm, emanating fluctuations that made one’s heart tremble even more.
His gaze locked onto King Chi and Wushang, whose faces looked unsightly.
“Now, it is your turn.”
His calm words carried a pressure heavier than countless bolts of thunder, crashing down upon the two giants of the Foreign Realm!
The balance of the battlefield was instantly reversed with Lu Xuan’s arrival, with the ringing of the Chaos Bell!
Carrying the might of the Chaos Bell, Lu Xuan slew two great Immortal Kings in a single strike, shocking the entire battlefield into submission.
Even King Chi and Wushang, these two giants of the Foreign Realm, felt unprecedented pressure.
The morale of the Immortal Realm’s kings soared, while the army of the Foreign Realm wavered, their offensive faltering.
“That Golden Crow Immortal King cannot be opposed by force! We must invite that one to act!”
King Chi and Wushang exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in the other’s eyes.
They had originally thought that with two giants and thirty Immortal Kings, they would be enough to sweep across the Immortal Realm’s border pass.
They had never expected Lu Xuan to appear out of nowhere, so terrifying that he completely disrupted their plans.
Wushang abruptly crushed a dark rune hidden in his palm.
The instant that rune shattered, a secret fluctuation that transcended the limits of spacetime silently transmitted toward the depths of the infinitely distant Realm Sea!
“Fellow Daoists, please meet your tribulation!”
Lu Xuan was just about to activate the Chaos Bell to suppress King Chi and Wushang, eliminating future troubles forever.
However, the instant his aura locked onto the two of them, his heart suddenly jolted!
An aura far more terrifying than King Chi and Wushang descended without warning from the direction of the Realm Sea!
“Hmm?”
Lu Xuan’s gaze hardened. For the first time, a solemn expression appeared on his face. He abandoned his attack and instead looked toward that stretch of void.
It was not only him. The Spacetime Immortal King, the Nirvana Immortal King, and even all the Immortal Kings from both sides sensed a pressure that made their souls tremble rapidly approaching!
“That is… the aura of the Realm Sea!”
The Spacetime Immortal King’s expression changed drastically. He had studied spacetime for years and understood the dangers of the Realm Sea better than anyone.
“And there is another… powerful killing intent I have never felt before!”
The Nirvana Immortal King’s surrounding Dao charm of annihilation began to ripple slightly.
Under the gazes of countless horrified eyes, within the chaotic void where the Realm Sea and the borderlands of the Immortal Realm met, a fine crack silently appeared.
Immediately after, a figure stepped out from within that crack.
The newcomer was not especially tall; his build was no different from that of a human.
He wore a simple gray cloth robe, and his features were ordinary, even somewhat plain.
But as he stood there, he seemed like a supreme, murderous blade that had severed epochs and slaughtered myriad worlds!
There was no dazzling divine radiance around him, nor any majestic aura released outward. There was only a blade intent restrained to the extreme, yet it made the surrounding laws of the Great Dao actively retreat and caused spacetime itself to congeal!
That blade intent was no illusion. It had condensed into substance, forming a faint halo of emperor light around him!
An Emperor-Light Immortal King!
This was an ancient existence who had returned from the Realm Sea, a supreme giant who truly stood within an even higher domain!
The reinforcement secretly invited by the Foreign Realm—the Blade King!
“Blade King!”
When King Chi and Wushang saw this person, their hearts relaxed, yet their apprehension deepened at the same time.
To invite this existence, their Foreign Realm had paid an unimaginable price.
Their original intention had only been to hold off
The Blade King’s gaze calmly swept over the tragic battlefield, passing over the terrified kings of the Immortal Realm.
Finally, it landed on Lu Xuan, who held the Chaos Bell.
In his eyes, still as an ancient well, a faint ripple finally appeared.
“An interesting bell.”
The Blade King spoke, his voice hoarse, yet carrying a decisive, ironclad texture.
“This king has drifted through the Realm Sea for endless ages, yet has never seen such an artifact. You are the master of this bell?”
Lu Xuan sensed the blade intent on the other party, condensed to the utmost limit, as well as that faint halo of emperor light, and battle intent rose in his heart.
This was the first opponent he had encountered since descending into this realm who could make him feel a genuine threat!
Previously, Lu Xuan had remained in the Golden Crow Clan’s forbidden ground, comprehending and receiving the Eastern Emperor’s inheritance while striving to gain the Eastern Emperor Bell’s recognition.
This was his first time encountering an opponent like this!
“So what if I am?”
Lu Xuan’s tone remained calm, but the magical power within his body was already circulating at full force. The Chaos Bell trembled slightly, linked with his aura, emanating an increasingly heavy Xuanhuang qi.
“Hand over this bell, and this king may spare your life.”
The Blade King’s words were simple and direct, carrying a tyranny that brooked no doubt, as if he were stating an established fact.
He had taken a fancy to the Chaos Bell!
“You want it?”
The corner of Lu Xuan’s mouth curved slightly.
“Then that depends on whether you have the ability!”
“Stubborn fool.”
The Blade King said no more. Pressing his fingers together like a blade, he lightly slashed through the air toward Lu Xuan!
There was no earth-shaking momentum, no dazzling saber light.
Only a trace so fine it was almost invisible instantly crossed spacetime and appeared before Lu Xuan!
This strike was aimed neither at the physical body nor at the primordial spirit, but directly at the root of the Great Dao!
It slashed at the connection between Lu Xuan and the Chaos Bell!
It slashed at the Dao foundation of his existence!
Lu Xuan’s pupils contracted slightly. He felt an unprecedented crisis!
This strike could not be dodged, could not be blocked, because what it severed was a concept, a connection!
“Dong——!!!”
At the critical moment, the Chaos Bell rang out on its own!
