Chapter 514

Translation text

The piercingly extreme sword qi instantly tore the heavens!

At this same moment, the countless immortal sword divine soldiers of the Upper Three Dao Regions again vied to cry out, bowing toward this!

"Extreme Dao Sword Intent, the Sword Way Faces the Emperor! I never expected to witness this twice in person today; my life is not wasted!"

"You say this sword of Senior Wine Sword Immortal can block the Feather Immortal Emperor? Before, this strongest sword easily cut down Mi Lao, who was also a quasi‑Immortal Emperor."

"Hard to say, you know that opposite is merely a phantom of the Immortal Emperor!"

This sword likewise stirred the hearts of countless cultivators, who began to speculate, for you know that throughout history, few have dared to draw a sword against an Immortal Emperor while possessing Immortal Emperor cultivation themselves!

"Huh? You little brat, truly beyond this Emperor's expectations."

The white phantom let out a soft "eh", yet the motion of his palm descending did not cease; though his expression could not be seen, his carefree, breezy aura never faded.

With a light pat, the heaven‑splitting sword strike that Zhao Fanchen of the Wine Sword Immortal had unleashed was easily dispelled.

It vanished completely between heaven and earth, causing not the slightest ripple.

"Hiss!" Zhao Fanchen only felt a tremendous force crushing straight toward him; with a bang! his whole body was blasted away, and the immortal sword in his hand was shaken off, falling to the mortal realm.

This sight shocked the eyes of countless onlookers; the quasi‑Immortal Emperor's strongest sword could not even block the Immortal Emperor phantom's light tap! They still underestimated the Immortal Emperor's might!

No! One can only say the Immortal Emperor's might is beyond imagination! Vast as the stars!

"Your sword can cleave heaven and earth, yet it cannot sever karma."

"It can split the firmament, yet it cannot break the bonds of time."

"Formless, traceless, invincible, lawless, heaven‑defying—that is the ultimate essence of the sword."

"All I can say is you still have a long road ahead."

The white phantom withdrew his hand and spoke softly; from his words one could see he greatly admired the Wine Sword Immortal.

The three casually spoken words struck Zhao Fanchen's ears, instantly deepening his understanding of the Sword Dao; the shackles hindering his progress began to loosen, for he truly yearned to advance!

"I have been taught," Zhao Fanchen said, clasping his hands.

"However, anyone who opposes my Azure Cloud Sect, even in death I will cut them down!"

His tone shifted; as his words fell, the immortal sword that had slipped from his grasp flew back into his hand, his expression fearless, sword pointed at the void!

"Fanchen, you and Changhong step back; let me handle this."

Liu MiaoMiao leapt forth, standing firm in the void; her ethereal immortal bearing was like a celestial maiden descending from the nine heavens, her peerless figure causing heaven and earth to lose their color.

"Hmm, the dual cultivation of alchemy and martial arts is supreme; you, little one, are not bad either—I never expected that at the end of the Star‑Era, the Upper Three Dao Regions would produce another Divine‑rank Grandmaster Alchemist of Great Perfection."

Above the firmament, the white phantom nodded; his calm words again caused an uproar.

Dual cultivation of alchemy and martial arts! Divine‑rank Grandmaster Alchemist of Great Perfection!

"Holy cow! Azure Cloud Immortal Sect is insanely overpowered! First came the Wine Sword Immortal with extreme Dao sword intent, now a Dual‑Cultivation Alchemist of Divine Rank, Great Perfection! What other secrets does this sect hold?"

"Isn't that nonsense? Even the Heaven‑Outside‑Heaven's Qingchen Immortal Sect backs them—how could they not be overpowered?"

Currently, the only known Divine‑rank Grandmaster Alchemist of Great Perfection in the Upper Three Dao Regions is the Elder Pavilion Master of the Divine Abyss Alchemy Pavilion, the leading figure of the region's foremost alchemical power.

The emergence of a Divine‑rank Dual‑Cultivation Alchemist can only imagine the huge stir it would cause in the alchemical world.

"Amazing is amazing, but… the Wine Sword Immortal senior is no match for even a single strike of the Immortal Emperor phantom…," many alchemy cultivators' eyes showed worry, for the Immortal Emperor is truly too strong, so strong that it despairs everyone!

"One who can cleave heaven and earth, command yin and yang, fear no karma, and transcend the bonds of time and space—the Chaos Immortal Emperor—I have long wished to behold."

Heavenly Mist Divine Lord Liu MiaoMiao lifted her gaze to the white phantom; battle intent rose in her eyes, facing the Immortal Emperor without fear.

"The Sect Master has bestowed upon me the supreme treasure; what do I have to fear?"

"Refine pills, refine tools, even refine heaven; refine earth, refine people, likewise refine immortals!"

"Heaven‑Refining Immortal Furnace, open!"

She formed seals with both hands, closed her eyes, and spoke in a deep voice.

As her words fell, a huge crimson‑azure alchemical furnace appeared out of thin air, rising upward!

The strange, obscure inscriptions etched on the furnace activated simultaneously, endless fiery‑red immortal light flashing across heaven and earth.

At the moment the furnace opened, a fire dragon forged from crimson flames shot up into the void, blazing and enveloping the entire Upper Three Dao Regions!

With a single thought, this crimson flame is enough to burn all things in the world!

"Huh? This is… an ultimate Immortal Emperor artifact! How could this be possible?"

Seeing this, the white phantom finally lost his composure; how could an ultimate Immortal Emperor artifact exist in the Upper Three Dao Regions? Such a thing is exceedingly rare even in the Thirty‑Three Heavens! The surprises the Azure Cloud Sect brings keep growing!

"Burn!" Liu MiaoMiao circulated her cultivation, controlling the Heaven‑Refining Furnace as it pressed forward.

Her quasi‑Immortal Emperor cultivation could only unleash one‑ten‑thousandth of the furnace's power, yet that fraction was enough! Unless the Immortal Emperor himself appears, no one can block it.

"It is this Emperor's miscalculation," the white phantom said, his voice light after a brief surprise, quickly regaining his calm demeanor.

Facing the oncoming Heaven‑Refining Furnace, he neither dodged nor fled, merely glanced back at the anxious‑looking Murong Xue and spoke calmly: "Xue'er, I have long warned you—what you sow you reap; before any act, consider clearly whether you can bear the consequences."

"Today the fruit you bear is your death; this incarnation of mine will dissipate, and I cannot save you."

Upon hearing this, Murong Xue stood stunned, then immediately knelt on the ground: "Father, Father! You surely have a way, right? Quickly take Xue'er away! Xue'er does not want to be burned to death!"

"The path of cause and effect is not as simple as you think," the white phantom shook his head and turned away: "The little sword‑playing brat, after today the karmic ties between my Murong ancient clan and your Azure Cloud Sect will be completely severed; this Emperor awaits the day you grow strong."

"And you…"

Before the white phantom could finish speaking, the fire dragon forged from crimson flames utterly devoured him and the Murong Xue behind him, instantly refining them into nothingness.

With that done, all between heaven and earth fell silent.

"Terrifying! Terrifying beyond words! Even the Immortal Emperor phantom has been refined! The Azure Cloud Immortal Sect is practically invincible!"

"My concern lies here: what did the Feather Immortal Emperor's last words mean? Karma is settled… could it be that the Murong ancient clan no longer harbors intent to act against the Azure Cloud Sect?"

"I'm not sure, but it looks like that."

Amid the sighs of countless cultivators, the great war between the Murong ancient clan and the Azure Cloud Immortal Sect drew its final curtain.

In this battle, Murong's little princess Murong Xue perished, the Immortal Emperor phantom was burned, the foremost dragon beneath the Immortal Emperor, Long Lao, departed, a quasi‑Immortal Emperor fell, tens of thousands of mighty ones were slain—one can say the Murong ancient clan suffered grievous losses.

And the great name of the Qingyun Immortal Sect once again shook the entire immortal realm, reaching the thirty-three heavens beyond the sky!
