(Chapter 439 onward: Immortal Emperor breaks through apocalypse in a frozen world)
Li Mu cultivated for tens of thousands of years, finally becoming the number one Immortal Emperor in the Imm...
After hearing what Liu Zhen said, no immortal remained calm anymore and they all flew towards the jade slips.
As soon as a few quick-moving immortals grabbed the jade slips, the people behind them cast spells on them, and the situation got out of control for a moment.
"Fellow Taoists, calm down! Don't be provoked by Liu Zhen!" Some weaker immortals advised.
However, those veteran immortals who were at the top of the immortal ranks were unmoved, especially the immortal who had made the decision to call on everyone to deal with Liu Zhen first. He snatched three jade slips and turned around to flee, not even caring about his fellow Taoist friends.
Before long, the nine jade slips were divided up, and the three immortals who had snatched the jade slips all escaped.
They didn't care whether Liu Zhen was trying to sow discord or not, and they didn't care whether Lingxiao Sect had made any announcements or not. Now that they had obtained the qualification to ascend, what other matters had to do with them?
Among them, more than ten immortals were unwilling to give up and chased after them.
The remaining 20 or so immortals surrounded Lingxiao Sect with unfriendly looks on their faces.
"You must have more jade slips. If you want to live, you'd better hand them over honestly!" A slightly fat middle-aged immortal said viciously to Li Mingxuan.
The other immortals also showed their magical weapons and were ready to attack. As long as Li Mingxuan dared to answer "no", they would attack without hesitation.
This is their last hope, they will not allow themselves to hear the sound of their dreams being shattered, even if it is the truth!
Li Mingxuan said in a deep voice: "Everyone, we just agreed that you will let us go if we hand over the secret method."
"Stop talking nonsense, tell these words to those people who got the jade slips!"
Upon hearing this, Li Mingxuan exchanged a glance with the people around him, then removed the protective formation on the flying boat, flew forward, stood in the air, and said coldly to the cultivators in the Sanxian camp: "Since you don't talk about morality, then let's fight!"
At the same time, more than 40 cultivators in the late stage of tribulation and above, including Chen Xiuhua, Chen Wen, and Li Zhenghao, also stepped forward and offered their magic weapons.
More than half of them are cultivators at the peak of tribulation. Relying on the absolute crushing advantages of their cultivation methods and weapons, they may be able to defeat the more than 20 immortals on the opposite side who had lost the previous battle.
"Hmph! A group of mortals dare to kill immortals?" A cultivator in the middle stage of the immortal realm snorted coldly, and then slashed at Li Mingxuan and others with a sword through the air.
Facing the opponent's sword, Li Mingxuan used his flying sword to block it, and then said to everyone in Lingxiao Sect: "Quickly decide the battle to prevent those cultivators who are chasing the jade slip from returning!"
…………
Two hours later, the scattered immortals were defeated and fled, and the Lingxiao Sect did not gain much. In this battle, 7 disciples in the late stage of the Tribulation Crossing died, and 3 monks in the peak stage of the Tribulation Crossing died. Among them, the 7 monks in the late stage of the Tribulation Crossing died. They were natives of Xuantian Continent, and two of the three monks were brought from other continents by Li Mingxuan and others, and the other one was a grandson of Chen Wu. The rest were also injured.
In addition, a flying boat was destroyed because the protective formation was broken, and none of the 300,000 monks were spared.
For a moment, everyone in Lingxiao Sect felt extremely heavy.
"Everyone, now is not the time to be sad. Let's leave quickly!" Yin Linyuan spoke up to break the silence.
Everyone nodded helplessly upon hearing this, and then the 11 flying boats started again.
"Brother Chen Wu, please accept my condolences!" Looking at the dazed Chen Wu, Yin Zhilong patted Chen Wu on the shoulder and comforted him.
Chen Wu cupped his hands to show his gratitude.
"Hey~, brother Chen Wu, don't be discouraged. Maybe Li Mu will have a solution." Yin Zhilong said.
Chen Wu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You and I have been practicing for a long time. It is unthinkable to revive a person. The path of practice is cruel and sacrifice is inevitable. Si Luo has lived for nearly 4,000 years, including the 3,000 years of seclusion in the Heaven-Swallowing Tower. It is enough. This is his destiny."
Yin Zhilong wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't open his mouth. He patted Chen Wu's shoulder again, and then quietly retreated. He had to go to other flying boats to take charge.
Their fleet has left the nearshore area and started to enter the deep sea area, which also means that they have entered the territory of sea beasts, so everyone has to be alert.
At the bow of a flying boat, Chen Xiuhua looked at the calm sea and frowned, "Something is wrong."
"Well, it's too peaceful, too peaceful to be normal." Li Mingxuan said solemnly. They had crossed the East China Sea to and from the Nebula Continent more than once in the past few years. When they passed through the deep sea area, there were no sea beasts roaring and huge waves. However, this time, they used their spiritual sense to check and did not see any sea beasts.
"Notify everyone to be careful." Chen Xiuhua said.
After saying this, he explained the situation to everyone.
At this moment, the sea level on all sides of the fleet suddenly rose up, forming a sky-high wall, standing in front of the fleet, tightly surrounding the flying boat fleet flying in the sky.
"Little boys of Lingxiao Sect, today is the day you will die!"
More than 30 figures appeared around the fleet in an instant, with unfriendly looks on their faces.
"How dare they chase us to the deep sea?" Everyone from Lingxiao Sect said in horror. The area of the Xuantian Star Sea is much larger than the land, and the resources are innumerable. This has made the power of sea beasts much stronger than the human race on several continents. Fortunately, these sea beasts have no interest in land, and humans naturally dare not cause trouble in the deep sea, which is why the two races have always lived in peace.
At this time, so many immortals actually appeared in the deep sea area in a high-profile manner. Aren’t they afraid of provoking a war between the two races?
When everyone was puzzled, the sea surface churned again, and huge monsters emerged from the sea.
"Oh my god! What kind of monster is this?"
"A sea beast, a sea beast of the Sanxian level! They actually cooperated with the sea beast!"
"Mingxuan, what should we do?"
Li Mingxuan smiled bitterly, this time he was really in a dead end.
"Don't be impulsive, don't you just want the secret method for immortals to ascend to heaven? We will give it to you! In fact, we already have the original version of the secret method and can make a copy of it at will. There is no need for fighting and killing!" Zhang Jingxuan poked his head out of the flying boat cabin and shouted to the immortals.
"Junior brother, you..." Zhao Dongsheng frowned.
"You're almost dead, why do you still keep this secret method? Have you forgotten the teachings of our sect leader? In the path of cultivation, saving your life is the kingly way, and other material things are nothing but clouds!" Zhang Jingxuan explained.
"Oh~" Zhao Dongsheng sighed and silently stepped aside.
"Haha, okay! We, the sea beast clan, have no conflicts with you humans. If you voluntarily hand over the secret method, we will no longer be involved in this matter." A sea beast immortal with a snake body and a human head laughed.
"Fellow Daoist, please do not be fooled. These villains are extremely cunning and never tell the truth. Previously, we had internal conflicts because of their instigation, which caused them to escape here. In my opinion, we have to kill them and scare them, then they will voluntarily hand over the secret method." A wandering immortal of the human race said.
