Free Web NovelChapter 2577: Chapter 2577: The Greater and Lesser Shaman
Immortals at the same realm battling each other face the constant and tireless puppet corpses, which hold an absolute advantage.
Thus, the two puppet corpses Fang Bai summoned, upon clashing with Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor, immediately secured a steady upper hand.
However, Fang Bai knew the proximity to Wuying Sect might result in disciples passing by at any moment, so before preparing to strike and kill Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor, he decided to act swiftly.
He retreated a thousand feet away, secretly gathering power, eyes slightly narrowed, capturing the flaws of Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor, searching for a chance for a lethal strike.
The two brothers, upon discovering Fang Bai was an Immortal Emperor Realm mid-tier expert, were shocked at his ability to suppress his cultivation level but still did not see him as a real opponent, thinking they could easily slay him.
Only when Fang Bai summoned two puppet corpses with high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm cultivation did they realize they underestimated this Remnant of Emperor’s Palace.
Even though the cultivation level of this Remnant of Emperor’s Palace wasn’t as high as the two brothers, being able to control such powerful puppet corpses was also a form of strength.
With two powerful puppet corpses on his side, it was no wonder the Remnant of Emperor’s Palace was not afraid of the two brothers.
The assault of the two puppet corpses was like a tide, firmly suppressing Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor, the brothers grew increasingly alarmed and had to exert their full strength to respond.
Originally thinking they were only ten thousand miles away from Wuying Sect, they planned to fight and move closer, then send a message for help. Unexpectedly, the two puppet corpses gave them no opportunity, entangling them tightly.
They believed their greatest opponent was the puppet corpses, investing their full energy into the battle, thus ignoring Fang Bai observing from a distance.
Little did they know Fang Bai had already summoned the Houyi Bow, like a death god clutching a scythe, his cold, merciless gaze fixed on them, ready to swing the scythe at any moment and take their lives.
A thousand breaths later, Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor were wounded to varying degrees, now filled with fear, losing their will to fight.
"If you are willing to let us go, we are willing to gift you our Space Immortal Rings!"
Wuheng Immortal Emperor knew continued fighting could lead to their demise and immediately softened toward Fang Bai.
As two elders with strength second only to the Sect Master within the sect, the cultivation resources in the Space Immortal Rings of Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor were valuable and abundant, but to save their lives, they had no choice but to begrudgingly part with them.
As long as the Remnant of Emperor’s Palace controlling the puppet corpses was willing to let them go, they would return to their sect at once and ask the Sect Master to personally strike to kill him.
"Oh, Space Immortal Ring huh..."
Fang Bai looked at Wuheng Immortal Emperor like he was a fool and coldly laughed, "Can’t I just take it after killing you?"
Wuheng Immortal Emperor’s expression froze, then shouted angrily, "Do you think you can kill us just with two puppet corpses?"
Fang Bai said, "You can always give it a try!"
Traceless Immortal Emperor said, "Push us too hard, and we’ll fight you to the death!"
Fang Bai said, "Is your so-called fight to the death referring to self-detonation? Heh, afraid you lack the courage!"
The more powerful the immortals, the more they cherish life, and unless pushed to a situation of absolute despair, they’d never resort to self-detonation.
Traceless Immortal Emperor snorted coldly, without response.
While the two brothers conversed with Fang Bai, the attacks from the puppet corpses did not cease.
Their battle power was already slightly inferior to the puppet corpses, and their distraction during the conversation only made it worse, adding more wounds to their bodies.
"Form the formation!"
Wuheng Immortal Emperor suddenly shouted, the two brothers shifted positions and in an instant formed a two-person joint attack formation.
Their formation was a life-saving secret technique that would not be employed unless forced by the puppet corpses to a desperate situation.
This formation, obtained a hundred years ago by chance during their Immortal Realm training, had been practiced to perfection. Once activated, its power was strong enough to kill same-realm experts within a hundred breaths.
Even when facing an attack from an Immortal Emperor Realm Peak expert, it could maintain an undefeated position for a considerable time.
Once they formed the formation, they immediately reversed the disadvantage and seized the advantage.
"Unless you show some skills, you won’t understand our prowess!"
"Once we handle these puppet corpses, we will take your life!"
Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor appeared triumphantly confident, their gaze at Fang Bai filled with smugness.
"Formations, huh... they can form one too!"
Fang Bai sneered at the formation formed by Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor.
With a change of thought, his Divine Sense extended outward, controlling the puppet corpses, which crossed their bodies to form an Immortal Array.
Once the formation was completed, Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor’s sights were transformed, as though seven or eight high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm experts were attacking them, the majesty overwhelming, like mountains collapsing and seas overturning.
The formation formed by the puppet corpses, named Twin Dragons Slaying Immortals Array, was an Emperor Rank Immortal Array, far superior to the one formed by Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor, akin to a grand wizard facing a lesser one.
Thus, even though Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor reversed their disadvantage within mere tens of breaths, they were quickly oppressed once again.
Moreover, this time, their predicament was worse than before.
When the Twin Dragons Slaying Immortals Array was executed, it carried an imperial aura that formed an immense invisible cage around Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor, slowing down their circulation of Immortal Law and execution of secret techniques.
And to Immortal Emperor Realm experts, such a flaw could be fatal.
Fang Bai raised his hand, drew the bow, and shot an arrow, all in one fluid motion.
"Whiz!"
The arrow’s sound abruptly echoed, as Fang Bai launched two consecutive arrows.
The two arrows carried the might of the Immortal Fire, infused with Fang Bai’s essence, energy, and spirit, surged through the air, piercing a thousand-foot space, passing through the shoulders of Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor.
Arrows shot from the Houyi Bow were extraordinarily powerful, and even the robust bodies and exceptional defenses of Immortal Emperor Realm experts like Wuheng Immortal Emperor and Traceless Immortal Emperor got half their sides shattered by the arrow impact.
Fortunately, such injuries for them, while severe, did not damage their Sea of Consciousness and Qi Sea, thus proving not to be lethal.
As long as they took an Immortal Pill, they could recover entirely within a few days so long as there were no external disturbances.
But would Fang Bai grant them the chance to heal?
Actually, those two arrows from Fang Bai could have directly slain the brothers, but considering the upcoming visit to Wuying Sect, having two extra puppet corpses would be more beneficial, so he decided to be merciful.
