"So that's how it is!" The Final Monster said coldly, "I hope you can still rember those words of yours later!"
Although the Final Monster didn't know why the Taichu Immortal was so confident, he still didn't feel any sense of alarm. You have to know, the very first ti the Final Monster t the Taichu Immortal, he was able to pierce several holes straight through his body, let alone now!
Sure, they say "a scholar should be treated with new respect after three days apart," but at their level, never mind three days, even if thirty years passed, when they t again there wouldn't be any major difference between them. Unless they attained enlightennt and directly advanced into the Taichu Realm, otherwise their strength wouldn't change in any way!
What's more, when the Final Monster previously went to the Taichu Sect to deliver a ssage, the Spiritual Power fluctuations the Taichu Immortal emitted, in the Final Monster's perception, hadn't changed at all—not even the slightest bit of growth.
So the Final Monster really couldn't bring himself to be wary of the Taichu Immortal. After all, this was a loser he could put several big holes through just by getting a bit serious.
At this mont the Taichu Immortal was watching the Final Monster warily, because this was already the final battle. As for whether it was truly the final battle—until the last mont, no one knew. But they were all treating it as the final battle and would fight it as such.
And the Taichu Immortal also knew the Final Monster's abilities: he could directly open a hole in your body. That kind of ability, no matter when, was sothing you should be on guard against!
"No need to be that tense. I won't pierce you through in an instant. After all, you can be considered the only enemy who can actually fight . If I kill you off too early, how boring would this world be?" The Final Monster slowly walked to stand before the Taichu Immortal as he spoke.
The Taichu Immortal stared coldly at the Final Monster, then said, "Hmph! Although right now I am the only enemy who can still fight you, let tell you this: our cultivation world is different from you monsters. Our people will grow up very quickly, and then they'll be able to easily wipe you out.
If you don't die today, very soon you'll beco rats on a city street, with everyone shouting to hit you."
In truth, the Taichu Immortal was just saying that. He wanted to do his utmost to kill this Final Monster. The rules on the Final Monster's body were far too many. If he really let him live, then as long as he didn't run into the Taichu Immortal, no matter whom he encountered, he'd be able to slaughter his way through. And even when it was himself, he had to be extrely careful, because once this Final Monster got serious, even he might not be able to retreat intact!
That very first ti, the Taichu Immortal had always kept it engraved in his heart. The several holes in his body had healed, but those lessons hadn't healed; they were still carved into his heart.
"Grow up, huh? Heh, it's not that I'm looking down on you. I was newly created, so I don't know the details of the last war, but I do know that in the last war, your cultivation world's younger generation was almost entirely wiped out, leaving only the old ones behind!
And now five hundred years have passed. This so-called 'growth' of yours amounts to having so disciples under you who can't even reach the Thousand Source Realm? Take a careful look. Aside from the two I know of, what other disciples in your ranks have reached the Thousand Source Realm?" the Final Monster said with a cold snort.
When the Taichu Immortal heard this, his heart dimd sowhat. After all, ever since the last war, the entire cultivation world had never recovered, falling into a slump. In five hundred years, all they'd managed was to have those surviving disciples move into the Elder Hall. As for the newly recruited disciples, aside from Yun Tian and Ye Tianfan, not a single one had advanced to the Thousand Source Realm!
And now, the only disciple whose advancent speed was like flying was taking an extrely risky approach to deal with this Final Monster.
But honestly, this kind of mission simply wouldn't work without bringing Ye Tianfan along. Ye Tianfan's Illusionary Fla was just too perfectly tailored to counter the Final Monster, while no one else had any thod of restraining him!
"Say, what are you even fighting over in this image battle? I told you before, as long as you defect to our side, then immortality, all sorts of Immortal Techniques, Infinite Resurrection—they're all waiting for you. But you lot are so pigheaded, insisting on fighting to the death. Tell , what are you even after?" The Final Monster, sowhat puzzled, sat down in front of the Taichu Immortal.
When the Taichu Immortal saw the Final Monster sit down, he also sat down. Even though this behavior was extrely dangerous, the Taichu Immortal believed that this Final Monster wasn't so lacking in class that he would insist on killing him here.
Of course, even if the Final Monster really did want to launch a sneak attack on the Taichu Immortal, he wasn't afraid. The Taichu Immortal had three talismans on him, and one of them could spring out at a critical mont to block that fatal blow for him.
So although the Taichu Immortal was still wary of the Final Monster, he no longer took it so much to heart. He just occasionally kept his sword at the ready, that was all!
And the Final Monster, seeing the Taichu Immortal still sowhat on guard, didn't say anything. In his view, it didn't matter whether you were wary of him or not. No matter how cautious you were, you still couldn't stop his "Pierce All Things." Besides, he had rules even more powerful than Pierce All Things. If they could actually force him to use that rule, then they could be said to have died a worthy death!
The Taichu Immortal smiled and said, "We're doing it for the world!"
"For the world? Why bother doing it for the world? Isn't doing it for yourselves better?" The Final Monster asked, sowhat puzzled. In his worldview, this world followed the law of the jungle: if he couldn't beat you, he'd listen to you; but if he surpassed you, he would kill you without hesitation!
"For ourselves? Ha~" When the Taichu Immortal heard this, he imdiately laughed, then said, "A beast is a beast. We Cultivators don't cultivate for our own immortality. We cultivate for the world's immortality. We're just pioneers, that's all—pioneers who stand in front to block all disasters for the common people, just so they can live ordinary, peaceful lives."
Hearing the Taichu Immortal insult him, the Final Monster didn't get angry. He only smiled faintly and said, "You know, I used to be an ordinary commoner. But why did I never feel that you were blocking disasters for us? On the contrary, I feel that many disasters only ca about because of the battles between you Cultivators."
When the Taichu Immortal heard this, he fell silent. After all, what the Final Monster said was true. If you didn't count them, the Cultivators, then for those ordinary commoners, the dangers they encountered were few and far between; it was even possible they might never run into danger at all!
