Free Web NovelChapter 624: Chapter 622: How About Capturing Her for Me to Play With?
With two Immortal Seeds here, whether Xu Yang or Xiao Ming obtains them, either one could easily ascend to the rank of First-class Immortal General.
First-class Immortal General—right now, even among the veteran top elites like Xue Ming and the others, there are only a few who could reach this level.
As long as you step into this realm, you’re immediately among the very apex!
It’s easy to predict that as we go further up, even rarer treasures await at the mountain’s summit!
Only with such strength are you qualified to compete!
So, even if he has to break their agreement, Xiao Ming is willing to risk it!
After all, if Xu Yang seizes all the advantages here and becomes even stronger, he’ll be the first to reach First-class Immortal General.
The outcome waiting for him will definitely be nothing good.
BOOM!
A thunderous crash shook the entire area.
The Celestial Bridge flashed, then vanished!
Xiao Ming went all out; his Immortal Essence surged forth like a mighty river. With a flick of his sleeve, a splendid Spirit Sword appeared out of thin air, unleashing a world-shaking, awe-striking sword might, pressing down on the battlefield.
"Get the hell out of my way!"
Xiao Ming roared, slashing the sword light across the air. Dazzling lines of light interwove densely, seizing the soul with terror.
The sword light flew from his hand, stirring up a devastating storm of Sword Qi to envelop Xu Yang.
Meanwhile, he himself dashed like lightning toward the two corpses inside.
The Martial Artists pursuing below were dumbfounded at this scene.
Why did he attack so suddenly?
Men Long desperately pushed herself to accelerate further.
"Xiao Ming! Dream on if you want the Immortal Seed!"
A cold shout, carrying waves of heart-stirring pressure, suddenly swept over from behind.
Xiao Ming instinctively glanced sideways.
CRACK!
The Spirit Sword seemed struck by lightning, instantly shattering.
A wild, terrifying saber light exploded, shredding all the energy surges into tatters.
Xu Yang was like a furious and raging dragon, charging in unscathed!
He’s even stronger now!
Xiao Ming felt a shock in his heart but kept his face unmoved, both hands weaving seals like lightning.
Five Elemental Spirit Patterns surged forth, instantly transforming into a mighty cage behind him.
He only needed to stall Xu Yang for an instant—and the Immortal Seed would be his.
The facts proved him right—he really did succeed.
BOOM!
Xu Yang was blocked!
And Xiao Ming had already reached the corpses.
"Hahaha, the Immortal Seeds are mine now."
"Xu Yang, soon those hundred streams of Immortal Essence and three Immortal Elixirs will all be yours."
Compared to these two Immortal Seeds, the hundred streams of Immortal Essence and three Immortal Elixirs are simply nothing.
His words oozed with biting mockery.
"Oh really?"
A playful, derisive laugh abruptly sounded from ahead.
Xiao Ming’s eyes rounded in disbelief.
On the other side of the corpses, a shadowy figure—Xu Yang—appeared, his entire body shrouded in intense, ancient Evil Qi.
But Xu Yang had just broken through the cage. He was still behind him!
Two Xu Yangs!
The one before him was but an incarnation!
"Just a meager incarnation tries to stop me? You look down on me too much." Xiao Ming sneered.
"Explode!"
The incarnated Xu Yang suddenly gave a thunderous shout.
His body swelled, ancient Evil Qi on his skin erupting like a volcano, blazing and ferocious—and instantly detonated.
"Self-detonation?"
Xiao Ming’s eyes bulged, sucking in cold air. He never imagined Xu Yang could be so insane.
Even though it was only an incarnation, the might of that Evil Qi...
Gulp!
Xiao Ming swallowed his spit, instantly retreating without hesitation.
RUMBLE!
The incarnation and the ancient Evil Qi exploded together.
A shockwave swept outward.
Xiao Ming, who dodged, was suddenly stunned in place.
"So weak?"
This explosion’s power—compared to what he felt before—was worlds apart.
At most, it only matched a High-tier True Monarch!
Just then, a figure appeared beside the corpses.
It was, of course, Xu Yang’s external incarnation that exploded!
But before entering the Immortal Path, that incarnation had lost most of its function.
Hardly any way to improve, its foundation restricted!
Now that Xu Yang has crossed into the Immortal Path, it’s completely useless!
Might as well use it for a self-detonation to scare Xiao Ming—that’s its last bit of value.
And with ancient Evil Qi coating the surface, it never crossed Xiao Ming’s mind that this incarnation’s actual threat probably didn’t even match Jun Baimu’s.
"Xu Yang!!"
Xiao Ming’s eyes went bloodshot. He roared in fury, lunging like a madman.
BOOM!
CLANG!
The Celestial Refining Divine Tripod shook heaven and earth, unleashing a deafening roar; a torrent of ancient Evil Qi swirled straight down in front of Xiao Ming.
Xu Yang’s hands flashed out together.
BANG BANG!
The two corpses shattered, and two Immortal Seeds landed in his palms.
BOOM!
BAM!
The Divine Tripod rang out as Xiao Ming’s wild blows drove it back again and again.
But endless ancient Evil Qi slowed Xiao Ming’s speed tremendously.
Xu Yang already held the Immortal Seeds, and Xiao Ming still hadn’t broken through the Divine Tripod’s defense.
As for shattering the Divine Tripod? Impossible!
Xiao Ming simply couldn’t do anything to the tripod at all.
"Mr. Xiao, what generosity! Willingly handing over such precious Immortal Seeds—my thanks!"
Xu Yang flashed back to the distance, with a thought recalling the Divine Tripod, grinning widely at Xiao Ming.
"You..." Xiao Ming stared at the Immortal Seeds in Xu Yang’s hand, his eyes blazing red—hating him to the bone!
It wasn’t that Xu Yang’s strength had truly surpassed his.
It was that he’d been mercilessly played for a fool.
That incarnation was no true threat at all.
And yet, he’d been startled by it!
Otherwise, the Immortal Seeds would have been his.
"Xu Yang, hand over the Immortal Seeds!"
Xiao Ming stepped forward, aura surging like a rising tide.
In an instant, he was nearly breaching First-class Immortal General realm.
In his hand, a five-colored jade ruler slowly condensed. Radiant immortal brilliance shimmered over it, inhaling the surrounding immortal energy and emanating a soul-shaking, destructive might.
The invisible shock made the stone walls crack, and the immortal energy nearby surged and shattered in all directions!
Xu Yang’s eyes narrowed, feeling danger.
But he was utterly fearless.
Immortal Essence roared inside him, his aura unstoppable.
The Asura Blood Saber fell into his grasp, the Purest Essence Qi foundation revealed—a killing intent towering to the heavens.
"Now you want to fight me?"
"As you wish!"
Xu Yang grinned, cold and unflinching.
Xiao Ming’s eyes contracted.
Xu Yang was now nearly his equal.
He’d caught up at shocking speed.
Damn it!
If they fought now, he knew full well—the Immortal Seeds in Xu Yang’s hands would never be his.
Instead, time would just be wasted.
Whoosh!
A powerful cultivator approached from below, with several people following behind.
"Elder."
Xu Yang’s eyes lit up with a smile the instant he saw him.
It was a patriarch-elder of the War King’s Family, his aura staggering, clearly already at the rank of First-class Immortal General.
The Shi Family’s elder nodded with a smile, staring at Xiao Ming, eyes sharp as knives.
"Now is the perfect time to kill Xiao Ming!"
A killing intent brimmed from his body.
"I couldn’t agree more," Xu Yang laughed.
Xiao Ming’s expression shifted at once.
"Shi Lang, you’ve become too arrogant."
A cold snort broke in.
On the other side, a newcomer rushed forward, exuding a First-class Immortal General’s aura in opposition, coolly standing with Xiao Ming.
A strongman from the Five Elements Celestial Realm!
Seeing this, Xu Yang instantly knew—there would be no battle for now.
Xiao Ming took a deep breath, his face gloomy as he suddenly dispelled the jade ruler in his hand.
"Xu Yang, just you wait!"
Xiao Ming spat the threat, turning to leave at once.
"Hold it!"
Xu Yang called sharply.
Xiao Ming’s body paused, turning his head to glare at Xu Yang.
Xu Yang teased, "Xiao Ming, could it be you’ve forgotten our wager?"
"From the moment you made your move, you already lost!"
"..."
Muscles twitched violently on Xiao Ming’s face.
If he’d gotten the two Immortal Seeds, then the hundred streams of Immortal Essence and the three Immortal Elixirs would be nothing.
But now, with no Immortal Seeds and yet still required to give those up—it was salt in the wound!
"Xu Yang, don’t push it too far!" Xiao Ming held back his boiling rage.
Xu Yang laughed crisply, then suddenly noticed Men Long catching up and coming to stand beside Xiao Ming. A thought flashed in his mind and he said lightly, "If you really can’t afford to lose, that’s fine. Why not give me Men Long to play with instead? Then forget about the hundred streams of Immortal Essence and the three Immortal Elixirs."
At those words, everyone was stunned—all their gazes collected on Men Long, who was radiant and stunning.
Men Long’s delicate body trembled, lips parted in disbelief, completely bewildered.
