Chapter 1725: Received the News! The Shuang Mian Lord's Fury!
"Correct."
Mu Qingwan also nodded in agreement, then spoke:
"And with your current Invincible Eternal stage strength, Lei Shen,
after this, you should receive an invitation from the Yan Alliance."
"I see."
Xu Jingming nodded.
Looking at it this way, the Yan Alliance indeed has a certain restraining power over the human race's high-end combat strength.
With the Yan Alliance intervening, the Fen Tian Lord might have some reservations.
However......
"I still need to contact Teacher Shuang Mian."
Xu Jingming thought to himself.
But before that, I still have to get the things in hand.
Xu Jingming turned to look at the towering illusory figure of the Black Shi Zun in the distance.
"Lei Shen, do you still want to continue cracking the secret patterns?"
Seeing this, Mu Wanqing couldn't help but hesitate:
"This is too dangerous; the Fen Tian Lord could arrive at any moment. Why don't we withdraw first?"
"No need to crack them; just take them directly."
Xu Jingming shook his head: "The Realm Venerable inheritance is fake; the possession is real.
When Royce and the Yan Zhu God joined forces just now, I was preparing to act.
As a result, I was held up in my consciousness sea by the Black Shi Zun's remnant soul, and it took some effort to resolve him."
"What?!"
Chu Kuang and Mu Wanqing exclaimed simultaneously, their eyes widening.
"A Realm Venerable-level remnant soul? Resolved by you?!"
Chu Kuang's voice even trembled slightly.
That was a Realm Venerable-level remnant soul!
No matter how weak, it was still an existence at the Realm Venerable level!
Xu Jingming actually managed to resolve it?
This is simply inconceivable!
"Mm, so now this illusory figure is just an empty shell, with no threat whatsoever."
As Xu Jingming spoke, his figure flashed, flying to the side of the Black Shi Zun's illusory figure.
He raised his hand and waved; the Yao Ri Divine Thunder formed a large hand.
Directly taking down the second divine crystal and that heavy treasure armor.
Immediately after,
a thought moved in his mind, and gold-green thunder swept across the illusory figure.
Boom—
The towering Black Shi Zun illusory figure instantly collapsed, dissolving into sky-full light points that scattered.
The so-called 'Realm Venerable inheritance' thus thoroughly vanished like smoke and clouds.
"It actually really dissipated?"
Chu Kuang and Mu Wanqing looked at each other, both seeing the shock in the other's eyes.
That is to say, Su Chen didn't lie; he really exterminated a Realm Venerable-level remnant soul!
"What do we do now? Just flee directly?"
Chu Kuang quickly recovered and asked.
"No rush; I'll go to the virtual universe to find someone first."
Xu Jingming shook his head.
He had long witnessed the might of a Supreme Lord.
The entire Tai Chu Ancient Battlefield is only 20 light-years in range.
For a Supreme Lord, it is reachable in an instant.
No matter where we flee, we will be found by the Fen Tian Lord.
Since that's the case, better to first find Teacher Shuang Mian to discuss countermeasures.
"Good, then I'll also go to the virtual universe to contact the Yan Alliance!"
"I'm going with you!"
Chu Kuang and Mu Wanqing didn't hesitate at all, immediately connecting their consciousness to the virtual universe.
Xu Jingming also sat cross-legged, his consciousness sinking into the virtual universe.
Virtual Universe, Tian Feng Mountain summit, Shuang Mian Divine Palace.
Xu Jingming's figure, having contacted the Shuang Mian Lord, appeared outside the palace and walked in with quick steps.
Inside the grand hall, the Shuang Mian Lord was sitting on a throne condensed from starlight, leafing through an ancient book.
Today she wore a pale blue long dress.
The skirt spread out like flowing water, outlining a curvaceous figure.
A head of long hair hung down like a waterfall, the tips shimmering with a starlike luster.
Her countenance was peerlessly beautiful, her temperament cold and clear like the moon.
Yet it also carried an indescribable grace and dignity.
Even sitting quietly there, she was breathtakingly beautiful.
"Teacher, I have come."
Xu Jingming entered the palace and bowed respectfully.
"It is rare that you come to me of your own accord."
The Frost Crown Sovereign closed the ancient tome, the corner of her mouth lifting in a faint smile:
"Have you encountered any difficulties in your cultivation lately?"
Her voice was clear, cold, and pleasant, like an ice spring flowing, calming the heart and mind.
In the Frost Crown Sovereign's view, Xu Jingming was her most worry-free disciple.
Heaven-defying talent, astonishing comprehension—his cultivation never required her excessive concern.
Often, she merely needed to toss the secret manuals to Xu Jingming.
He would comprehend them on his own, even innovating upon them.
Therefore,
Among her several disciples, Xu Jingming was actually the one who saw her the least.
"Teacher.
My cultivation is fine, but I have encountered some troubles on my end.
The situation is as follows......"
Xu Jingming skipped the pleasantries and got straight to the point.
He briefly described the course of events.
Upon hearing that Xu Jingming, with the strength of the Seventh Tier of Immortality.
Crushed the Nightmare Candle God and blasted Royce to pieces.
A flicker of shock flashed through the Frost Crown Sovereign's ice-blue eyes.
Her previously lazy posture instantly straightened, and she exclaimed in disbelief:
"You have already broken through to the Seventh Tier of Immortality, and can sweep aside the invincible Immortality Tier?"
"Yes, after entering the extraterritorial battlefield, I gained some insights and broke through to the Seventh Tier of Immortality."
Xu Jingming nodded.
"This......"
The Frost Crown Sovereign fell into utter shock.
Because Xu Jingming had always been worry-free, she had not overly inquired about his cultivation progress.
But she never expected that in less than two and a half years, he would give her such a great surprise!
Not only had his own level soared to the Seventh Tier of Immortality, but even the invincible Immortality Tier was no match for him!
"What comes next?"
After a while, she finally reacted and asked in pursuit:
"What comes next is as follows......"
Xu Jingming then described the subsequent events once more.
And when she heard that Night Li had been trapped by the Dream-Binding Pearl, and Xu Jingming had taken revenge for Night Li.
Drawing the pursuit of the Blazing Heaven Sovereign——
"Boom!!!"
The smile on the Frost Crown Sovereign's face, which had appeared due to Xu Jingming's breakthrough, vanished instantly.
Replaced by an extreme, bone-chilling cold!
The temperature of the entire hall plummeted!
"Royce! The Blazing Heaven clan... good! Very good!"
The Frost Crown Sovereign slowly rose, her light blue robe stirring without wind.
Her exquisite face remained calm.
Yet in her ice-blue eyes, a fury capable of freezing the Milky Way surged!
"Teacher, should the rules of the Primordial Ancient Battlefield impose limits on the Supreme Sovereign?"
Xu Jingming said: "Even if the Blazing Heaven Sovereign comes.
His strength will be suppressed to the invincible Immortality Tier, and I should be able to handle it."
"You are thinking too simply."
The Frost Crown Sovereign shook her head, her voice icy:
"The rules of the Primordial Ancient Battlefield can indeed suppress a Sovereign-tier's strength to the invincible Immortality Tier.
But that applies only to ordinary Sovereigns.
The Blazing Heaven Sovereign is a Supreme Sovereign, standing at the peak of the Sovereign Tier!
His comprehension of the primal laws far surpasses that of ordinary beings!
The suppression of the ancient battlefield has limited effect on him.
He can at least unleash thirty to forty percent of his power!"
"Thirty to forty percent......"
Xu Jingming's heart sank.
Even one ten-thousandth of a Supreme Sovereign's strength is far beyond what the invincible Immortality Tier can match!
And yet thirty to forty percent remains.
That also meant that as long as he encountered the Firestorm Overlord, he would have virtually no power to resist.
"But you don't need to worry.
I'm setting out now, heading to the extraterritorial battlefield via Divine Kingdom teleportation.
At most one minute, and I'll be able to reach your side.
You just wait right there, don't leave.
If Firestorm dares to touch a single hair on your head, I'll make him pay with his life!"
By the end, the Frostcrown Overlord's voice already carried a bone-chilling killing intent.
Xu Jingming felt reassured at heart, and bowed, saying: "Yes, Teacher."
"Alright, you go back first. I'm setting out right now."
The Frostcrown Overlord waved a hand.
The figure gradually faded, disappearing in the virtual universe.
Xu Jingming's consciousness also returned to reality.
