Cao Ya intentionally provoked the monster, causing it to reveal a weakness or loophole.
The humanoid monster opposite them was covered in golden scales, with black blood dripping down its body, a foul stench emanating from it, and ominous substances surrounding it, making it extremely eerie.
Most importantly, this person's strength is extremely fierce. Based on Cao Ya's perception, he is not an ordinary Immortal King, but a top-tier Immortal King!
Even with his formidable fighting prowess, Cao Ya dared not be the slightest bit careless in the face of such a top-tier opponent.
He couldn't expect help from others. Ordinary True Immortals couldn't participate in the King's War, and many of the old Kings had formidable enemies. On many battlefields, their own strongmen were still at a disadvantage, waiting for others to provide support. Where would they find extra strength to help him?
"However, so what if I am a Supreme Immortal King? I have already reached the Universe Realm, the peak of True Immortal. Other extraordinary systems have also reached the True Immortal Realm. When all kinds of magical power are combined, I will break through to the initial stage of the sixth star, and I can compete with ordinary Immortal Kings and Supreme Immortal Kings!"
Cao Ya pondered for a moment, remaining calm in the face of danger. He maintained his supernatural powers of "three heads and six arms," unleashing various spells to invoke the rules of the Great Dao and destroy the ominous substance!
"You've got some skill!" the golden monster said indifferently, showing a kind of arrogant attitude.
The power of a supreme immortal king is beyond the comprehension of a true immortal.
He felt that the stronger Cao Ya was, the purer his soul was. If he were to devour him, it would surely benefit his cultivation and might even allow him to uncover the secrets of the giants!
Cao Ya's laws are profound and mysterious, and even the Golden Monster, a supreme Immortal King, has never grasped their essence.
Even with a single rule, one can only reach the True Immortal Realm at most, not the Great Dao at the Immortal King level. However, the Golden Monster was confident that once he mastered it, with the vision of a supreme Immortal King and a commanding perspective, he would surely achieve great success with ease!
It was precisely because the golden monster noticed Cao Ya's special nature that it specially came out to attack him!
It should be noted that there are quite a few awakened King Realm beings within the Soul River. The most powerful ones, such as the White Peacock and the White Raven, are fighting endlessly against Jiu Liu San, the Black Emperor, and Duan De!
The remaining monsters also had the Old King of the Mortal Realm as their adversaries, some superior and some inferior, their blood splattered, their energy boiling, and their souls trembling!
Indeed, some of these Celestial Kings have very powerful backgrounds and unfathomable origins. For example, the Black Emperor once followed the Three Heavenly Emperors and was well-versed in the Heavenly Emperors' profound arts. If one could devour him, not to mention becoming a Celestial King giant, even a supreme being in all the heavens would have a glimmer of hope!
But does the Golden Monster have the ability to defeat the Black Emperor?
After observing the situation in secret, the golden monster quickly locked its target on Cao Ya, not only because Cao Ya had killed more than ten evil insects.
The golden monsters don't care about creatures in the True Immortal Realm unless they are disciples or descendants!
So what if we're both from the same strange race? If it weren't for the strict orders from above, he would have actively devoured the true immortals within the River of Souls to make up for his own deficiencies, perfect his bloodline, and hopefully break through.
"You should be happy, Cao Ya, that you've contributed to my promotion!" The golden monster grinned menacingly, spewing black blood as it charged out!
"My contribution is to send you to your death!" Cao Ya said coldly. The sun rose into the sky, radiating black and gold light, which was extremely dazzling and eye-catching.
However, the golden monster opened its mouth and spewed out a foul-smelling black light, which instantly shrouded the sun, making it difficult to see. This showed the monster's immense power, truly befitting a supreme immortal king!
"What great sun? It's all just a small trick, not worth mentioning," the golden monster sneered.
The golden monster paid no attention to the strange phenomena that evolved from the "Great Sun Tathagata Fist". In comparison, he preferred various laws, as well as the meaning of reincarnation, the meaning of death of heaven and earth, sword intent, knife intent, etc.
After the monster finished speaking, it muttered incantations, as if chanting a spell. Suddenly, an ominous aura flowed out, capable of corrupting the Kingly Realm and causing it to fall!
Cao Ya's expression was serious. Facing such a powerful figure, he was extremely solemn and would go all out.
"Buzz..." The meaning of reincarnation, the death intent of heaven and earth, and other elements formed layer upon layer of protective barriers, protecting his soul and blocking out ominous substances, thus ensuring his safety.
Then, Cao Ya clapped his hands together, and divine light burst forth, directly piercing through the curse and forcefully descending upon the golden monster's head, causing it to scream and vomit blood!
Instantly, the monster's face contorted, and madness appeared in its eyes.
Despite the seemingly normal conversation and banter, these strange creatures, tainted by the ghostly mist and black blood, have been corrupted for countless years since birth. Their essence is actually extremely twisted, and even cultivators of lower realms could be corrupted by them!
If one is the supreme being of all heavens or the highest being of all heavens, with profound cultivation, perhaps one can maintain one's self and not be affected by power. But clearly, true immortals and immortal kings cannot do that!
Provoked, the golden monster went mad, its entire body shaking, its scales trembling, and countless white worms emerging and crawling on its body, forming mysterious patterns, like inscriptions, carrying the divine charm of the Great Dao, or like a celestial blade, sharp and intimidating, capable of piercing the sun and moon!
"Bang!" A sinister golden light burst forth from the monster's body, exuding an ominous aura and unparalleled dominance.
Cao Ya unleashed a variety of profound and mysterious sword strikes, his sharp sword light piercing through the golden light as he engaged in a fierce battle with the monster!
"Boom!"
!
The extremely fierce battle had far-reaching consequences. The roar of cosmic energy nearly shattered spacetime, disrupting order and rules. The battle burned the River of Souls, tearing apart any ominous matter!
Cao Ya clashed with the humanoid monster covered in golden scales, fighting fiercely without retreating, causing the void to collapse. All the boundless soul light here turned into ashes and dissipated into the sky!
Any dried corpse that gets close to this battlefield, even if it is at the Hunyuan Realm, will be melted by the power without making a sound!
Even ordinary immortal kings would change color, realizing they were no match for these two.
"I'm missing a suitable weapon!" Cao Ya lamented. In the Perfect World version of him, he possessed the six-star Heavenly Desolation Halberd, while in the Supreme Being version of him, he wielded the seven-star Reincarnation Seal!
Leaving aside seven-star divine weapons, if he could also possess a complete six-star royal-grade magical artifact...
Cao Ya figured that if his combat strength increased by 20% to 30%, he would be even more confident in killing the golden monster!
"But even without divine weapons and magical artifacts, I can still kill these strange creatures in the River of Souls!"
Cao Ya roared as he fought a bloody battle with his formidable enemy. His hair was disheveled, but his eyes were extremely sharp. His body was covered in blood, making him appear even more ferocious!
Such brutal battles were happening everywhere in the River of Souls, with blood of all colors rolling down, accompanied by immortal magic, igniting the rules of the heavens and shocking all realms!
The heavens of all realms suddenly roared for no reason. Many experts looked up and saw a long river of unknown origin. The dark mist had not dissipated for years. It was originally eternally silent, but at this moment, more than a hundred immortals rushed into this place and fought desperately with the dark cultivator!
Instantly, countless evolved beings were horrified. What was happening? Such a ferocious phenomenon had suddenly appeared...
Could that river be the legendary River of Souls?!
For those beings above the Immortal Path, they are qualified to know the secrets of the universe. They know that the strangeness is not an illusion, but a real race that has repeatedly caused world-ending disasters!
Regardless of their background, they all have some understanding of the situation; they are not completely ignorant.
Currently, the Great Underworld, the Misty Star Realm, the Fallen Immortal Realm, the Heavens, and even the Yang Realm, all the realms are feeling the impact of the Soul River War. The battle is too intense, with a large number of Immortal Kings and True Immortals fighting bloody battles. The symbols of rules are everywhere, and the unique nature of the Soul River region has made them even more apparent, causing a great shock throughout the universe!
"A powerful figure from a certain realm has stormed into the River of Souls? What audacity!"
"Judging from the Taoist practices of the immortals, they must be beings from the mortal realm. That place may be connected to the ancient Heavenly Emperor!"
"No wonder! His reputation in the mortal realm is known even to those of us in the great realms billions of light-years away."
Such dialogues appeared one after another in different worlds, and all the great cultivators in the heavens felt awe and admiration for the immortals in the mortal realm!
Not everyone has the courage and boldness to wield a sword against a strange creature before the end of an era!
Afterwards, they began preparations in earnest, in case the supernatural phenomenon fully revived, they needed a way out, otherwise they would be foolishly waiting to die.
Almost no one dared to imagine that the All-Heavens Faction could defeat the supernatural and dispel the darkness!
They shouldn't even dream about things that even the ancient Heavenly Emperor couldn't accomplish; running away is the priority!
Of course, some will back down, while others will be unwilling to give up. Even if failure is inevitable, so what?
Killing one dark creature is not a loss; killing two is a huge profit!
Like ants, they eke out a living, hiding and living in constant fear. But many people would rather die in battle than live like that!
"They should be able to escape unscathed, right?" In the mortal realm, experts from all sides whispered among themselves. Even though they had grudges against the immortals, they would not be happy to see the dark faction win.
The three overlords are also closely monitoring the situation, guarding against the fall of the immortals and the emergence of dark creatures that could prematurely destroy the mortal realm!
They haven't finished fighting for unification yet, how can they allow the end of this world!
"That's... the Dog Emperor? And Master Number Nine, Senior Cao Ya?" Chu Feng looked up and stared blankly.
Suddenly, the stone jar trembled slightly, as if something had changed. Chu Feng's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly tried to sense it, but found nothing.
"What's going on?" Chu Feng scratched his head, looking completely bewildered. Although he had carried this stone jar with him for many years, he knew absolutely nothing about it.
"Forget it, saving lives is the priority!" Chu Feng quickly put this question out of his mind.
Many of his relatives and friends in the underworld were reincarnated into the mortal world, but they could not control how they were reborn or what their family background was like in this life. Some of his old friends were in danger and their lives were hanging by a thread!
Chu Feng learned of the news and was determined to go to the rescue!
He had no idea what fear was!
With the First Mountain behind him and a Master Number Nine, Chu Feng's background is actually top-notch in the mortal realm!
Boom!
"
Within the River of Souls, the great battle continues. The reactions of the myriad realms are unknown to the heroes, and even if they did, they would not care.
Their goal was to pierce through the River of Souls and utterly defeat the strange creatures. Before entering, they were mentally prepared for a bloody battle. When the battle actually broke out, they were not flustered, and they would never back down!
On a corner of the River of Souls, Cao Ya was fighting against a golden monster of a supreme immortal king. He fought with all his might and actually suppressed the humanoid monster. With the body of a true immortal, he achieved this feat, which was unprecedented in history!
The golden monster's face was grim, and it went even crazier. Such a scene would be a huge shock and hard to accept for any Immortal King!
Which one of those who reached the pinnacle of the Way of the King was not a hero of their time?
He considered himself to be excellent in terms of talent, comprehension, and luck, so how could he tolerate being defeated by an evolved being of a lower level?
"ah!
"!" The golden monster roared, its golden light dazzling, yet accompanied by dark light. Ominous particles boiled, enveloping the void and permeating every corner of heaven and earth.
In this way, every time Cao Ya exhales or breathes, it will be contaminated with ominous substances.
The golden monster was determined that since it couldn't kill Cao Ya in a short time, it would change its strategy and slowly wear down this terrifying True Immortal!
This place is his home turf, and the unknown particles, while providing him with assistance, also limit Cao Ya's performance.
The golden monster didn't believe that Cao Ya's internal energy could sustain him for long in the most intense battles! He would inevitably have to absorb and expel the energy of heaven and earth to replenish what he had consumed.
If Cao Ya does this, it will play right into Cao Ya's hands. He will fall into the True Immortal realm, but due to his origins, he will be suppressed by a truly bizarre creature!
Moreover, they were no longer enemies at that time. Witnessing Cao Ya turn around and kill his comrades... the Golden Monster was quite looking forward to the reactions of the immortals, which would definitely be very interesting!
However, this monster underestimated Cao Ya; the surrounding aura of reincarnation blocked any contamination!
"My understanding of reincarnation primarily originates from my time as the [Supreme Being], where I comprehended the Seven-Star Reincarnation Seal. In addition, my time as the [Perfect World], where I cultivated the 'Six Paths Reincarnation Heavenly Art,' also yielded a certain level of mastery..."
"Although its bizarre and terrifying nature is so great that even a seven-star Immortal Emperor cannot escape it!"
"But that refers to the strongest true blood... a being at the Immortal King realm. The ominous particles he possesses are probably not just a weakened version!"
"Naturally, the reincarnation intent I activated can resist and protect myself, preventing me from falling!"
"Yes, we can't let our guard down. The Celestial King's ultimate move is still extremely terrifying!"
Cao Ya pondered, his magical powers are diverse, and he also has the reserves of the Niwan Palace World. In a simple contest of consumption, against just one golden monster... he really has nothing to fear!
Therefore, Cao Ya launched a fierce attack, completely ignoring the golden monster's schemes.
However, the actual development of events was quite unexpected, leaving many speechless.
"How is this possible?" The golden monster was taken aback, but then realized the key point and its pupils contracted.
"You possess the supreme inheritance of all the heavens?"
The monster sneered, "Throughout the long ages, I have heard the teachings of the supreme beings of the heavens many times. Am I any less capable than you?!"
"Boom!" However, the vast and profound laws descended, and the sword light flowed, shattering the demonic golden light that filled the sky, restricting the monster in all directions. No matter how much it roared, it could not break free!
Cao Ya's fierce performance also alarmed the other immortals, greatly boosting the morale of the mortal camp!
A true immortal from the mortal realm defying the Dark Immortal King—such a feat is astonishing!
"Useless thing, can't even deal with a True Immortal, truly disgracing our Soul River."
That white peacock had sharp eyes, filled with dissatisfaction towards the golden monster.
If it were him, he could slap Cao Ya to death without giving him any room to resist!
