Chapter 663: The Descent of the True Immortal

Zhang Nuo looked at the imposing Garuda, yet in his heart, he felt doubt regarding his words. When he performed Thunder Escape, with the aid of the "Profound Yellow Rushing Thunder," his speed could be said to have reached the extreme. Could it be that Garuda possessed a flight technique even faster than his? Wouldn't that be a bit too heaven-defying?

Zhang Nuo only dared to think these things in his heart and did not dare to say them out loud. Seeing that he remained silent, Garuda seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, so he did not offer much explanation. With a slight opening of his mouth, a giant boat nearly a hundred zhang long appeared before the two of them!

This giant boat was entirely cyan in color, with Demonic Qi surging on its surface. Especially on the two sides of the flying boat, there were two strange humanoid monsters, each several zhang tall!

These beasts looked like two ferocious giant ghosts, with horns on their heads, gold rings in their ears, and an aura like that of an ox! The two monsters held the giant boat up with their hands, looking quite terrifying!

"This is the flight Magic Treasure I used when I was in the True Immortal Realm! Because my cultivation was severely damaged before, I had no way to use it, but after recovering my True Immortal body, I can drive it again!"

After Garuda finished speaking with a sigh, his figure drifted and landed on the cyan giant boat. Zhang Nuo and Jiemie exchanged a glance and followed closely behind!

As soon as the three of them stood on the giant boat, they heard Garuda say to the two humanoid monsters below:

"Let's go! We are going to the Underworld!"

As soon as his voice fell, the two monsters let out a low roar, and then, with their four hands supporting the giant boat, their figures moved and they flew away toward the front!

Only at this moment did Zhang Nuo feel that he was a frog at the bottom of a well! The speed of the giant boat was several times faster than the Thunder Escape he performed with all his might; it almost didn't even leave a residual shadow, and the scenery before his eyes faded away like a dream or an illusion! It was as if the place they were traveling through was a spatial passage!

At this speed, it would be completely in time to return to the Underworld before the spatial passage closed! With his hanging heart finally put to rest, Zhang Nuo looked again at Garuda, who had recovered his True Immortal strength! He felt that his figure had become increasingly tall, giving him a sense that made him look up in awe!

Is this the strength of a True Immortal? After entering the Great Accomplishment Stage, Zhang Nuo had always thought his strength was not weak, but compared to Garuda, it made him once again develop an urge to enter the True Immortal Realm!

In the Underworld, above the palace of the King of the Sixth City, Jiufang Yi and the others looked up at the passage in the sky, their hearts beating like drums! There was only one day left before the passage would close, yet Zhang Nuo still had not come out!

On the side of Zhuanlun Wang, the three of them all revealed sneers; even if a True Immortal really existed, it was hard to say whether Zhang Nuo could invite one! It looked like if the True Immortal could not be invited, Zhang Nuo would not be coming back either!

"Fellow Daoist Jiufang! You have placed all your hopes on the Human Emperor! This King thinks you are likely to be disappointed!"

Pingdeng Wang stood beside Zhuanlun Wang, looking at Jiufang Yi with a face full of schadenfreude!

Jiufang Yi did not answer, his face appearing slightly calm, but his heart was boiling! He watched the high sky with a heart suffering from torment, silently praying for Zhang Nuo to return quickly!

At this time, Lv Yuansheng had also recovered somewhat, though his weak body still carried a bit of haggardness, and that Great Luo Heavenly Eye had long since been covered by him! With his only remaining eye, he glanced at the three people of Zhuanlun Wang opposite!

Now, among the seven, only his strength was the weakest. Once the spatial passage closed and Zhang Nuo did not return, the first person to be attacked would be him! After all, the secret of his Great Luo Heavenly Eye was already known to everyone; such a rare treasure of heaven and earth would surely tempt the three people opposite!

He had already made the worst preparations in his heart; once the two sides started a war, he would rather destroy his own eye than leave it to Zhuanlun Wang and the others!

"Fellow Daoist Jiufang, do you still want to wait? Looking at the state of the passage, it cannot support itself for much longer! This King has a proposal; I wonder if you would agree?"

Zhuanlun Wang narrowed his eyes slightly, and two strange rays of light shot out from them.

"What proposal?"

Jiufang Yi asked with an unpleasant expression. Things had reached this point; whatever Zhuanlun Wang said would have an impact on his side!

"How about this: you also join our plan for the Underworld. As long as this matter succeeds, couldn't we enter the True Immortal Realm together? Why bother fighting each other to the death here?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the hearts of Jiufang Yi and the others were shaken simultaneously. What had they been cultivating so bitterly for? Wasn't it to be able to enter the True Immortal Realm? But looking across the many realms, those innocent lives would pay a heavy price for it!

"Zhuanlun Wang! Don't even dream of this! If we wanted to join forces with you, we wouldn't have reached this point today! Even if Zhang Nuo doesn't return, we will not consider your suggestion!"

Having flatly rejected Zhuanlun Wang's enticement, Jiufang Yi looked up toward the high sky again!

"Zhuanlun Wang, are you still obsessed and unrepentant even now? How could the Chaos Insect King be something you can drive? In the end, you will definitely play with fire and burn yourself!"

Yanluo Tianzi said with hatred.

"Yanluo! As one of the Ten Kings of the Underworld, don't you think about your own consequences? Jiufang Yi and the others can return to their realms, but what about you? You have to continue staying in the Underworld! Once the control of the Insect King succeeds, the first person to die will be you!"

Dushi Wang stepped forward, pointing at Yanluo Tianzi from afar and cursing angrily.

"You... you are truly unrepentant!"

Yanluo Tianzi was so angry that his whole body shook, and a ferocious killing intent appeared on his face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot!

If he hadn't still been holding onto a glimmer of hope, he probably would have attacked long ago!

Just as the two sides were engaged in a war of words, a ray of spiritual light suddenly flashed through the passage in the high sky, and then a cyan flying boat drilled out from it!

Immediately, everyone's gaze was attracted to it. They saw three people standing at the front of the flying boat. One of them was Zhang Nuo, and beside him stood a middle-aged man of about fifty years old, his body emitting a faint divine light, his pair of eyes as cold as ten-thousand-year black ice! It was none other than the True Immortal Garuda!

And beside Garuda stood Jiemie Heshang! The giant boat stopped slowly in mid-air. Garuda swept his gaze over the crowd below, and his eyes immediately fell upon Zhuanlun Wang!

This number one person of the Underworld felt his heart tighten instantly, an invisible pressure rising from the bottom of his heart, his face full of disbelief!

At this time, Zhang Nuo jumped off the flying boat and came directly to the front of Jiufang Yi!

"Fellow Daoist Jiufang, Zhang has not failed the heavy trust; the True Immortal has arrived!"

Hearing these words, everyone felt a simultaneous joy, but looking at Garuda's appearance, he was extremely fierce, which seemed to be very different from the True Immortal in legends!

At this time, Garuda also put away the giant boat and stood directly between Zhuanlun Wang and Jiufang Yi's group, his pair of eyes scanning back and forth!

"Are you really a True Immortal?"

Although Dushi Wang also felt Garuda's momentum, he still had doubts in his heart, so he asked it out loud! But after that, he realized what a great sin it was to offend a True Immortal!

"You dare to question my existence?"

Garuda's gaze condensed, and then his figure disappeared from the spot in a strange way. The next moment, he appeared silently in front of Dushi Wang, raised his hand, and gave him a strike on the face!

When the crisp sound of a slap was heard, Garuda's figure had already returned to the place where he had stood before!

Which of the people present was not a Great Accomplishment Stage existence? Yet their Divine Sense had not captured the scene just now at all, as if Garuda had been standing there the whole time, while Dushi Wang had received a heavy slap!

Even Zhuanlun Wang, who was standing beside Dushi Wang, did not notice it at all! Immediately, a chill rose in everyone's hearts! With such strange movement, if he wanted to kill any one of the people present, it would be as easy as reaching into a bag to take something!

Dushi Wang, who had been slapped heavily, had half of his face swollen high, and he stood in mid-air like a wooden statue, his heart still not having recovered from the blow just now!

As a Great Accomplishment Stage cultivator, being slapped—this was perhaps something that had never happened in many realms! In front of a True Immortal, are Great Accomplishment cultivators really this vulnerable?

"Who else among you questions my existence?"

Garuda's voice was flat, yet it contained a kind of dominance! Everyone's figure trembled, and they all silently lowered their heads, especially on Zhuanlun Wang's side, where the three were like defeated roosters, not even daring to breathe loudly!

"Since no one questions my existence, then take me to Fengdu Cheng!"

At this moment, Zhuanlun Wang's heart sank suddenly! Before, he had guessed that even if it were a True Immortal's cultivation, it would not be much higher than the Great Accomplishment Stage, but from the current situation, he was wrong!

A True Immortal was completely an existence that transcended the Great Accomplishment Stage; he had never thought that a True Immortal would be this terrifying!

Seeing that Zhuanlun Wang had not moved, Garuda's face sank, and then a Spiritual Pressure like a monstrous wave assaulted Zhuanlun Wang!

Only at this moment did Zhuanlun Wang realize, and he hurriedly said:

"This junior will take Senior to Fengdu Cheng right away!"

Seeing that the matter had been resolved so easily by Garuda, the heavy burden that had been weighing on the hearts of Jiufang Yi and the others finally lifted! At this moment, Zhang Nuo walked up to Lv Yuansheng and, looking at his weak body, asked with great concern:

"Fellow Daoist Lv, are you alright? Here are two Qi-Returning Powders; I hope they can be of help to you!"

After saying this, Zhang Nuo handed two Pills to Lv Yuansheng!

"Many thanks, Human Emperor!"

Taking the Pills, he swallowed them without a second thought. He had originally assumed they were just two ordinary Pills, but once the medicinal power dissolved, Lv Yuansheng suddenly felt that the missing Spirit Power in his body had seemingly been replenished by eighty percent in an instant!

"This... what kind of Pill is this? How can it have such a miraculous effect!"

He stared at Zhang Nuo with wide eyes! As a being at the Great Accomplishment Stage, there was no type of Pill he hadn't seen, but this was the first time Lv Yuansheng had ever consumed a Pill capable of restoring so much Spiritual Qi in an instant!

Zhang Nuo did not speak, merely glancing in the direction of Garuda. At the same time, Lv Yuansheng understood; this was a Pill refined by a True Immortal! No wonder it possessed such a miraculous effect!
