"Swish!"
Amidst the howling wind and flashing black light, the immortal whose hand was engulfed in white fla let out a miserable scream, as his entire arm was severed at the shoulder, causing blood to gush out imdiately.
The one who struck was Lei Yi Immortal King.
In his hand, at so unknown point, appeared a five-foot-long black blade. It was this very blade that sliced through like lightning, easily severing the immortal’s arm.
Although immortals can regenerate severed limbs, full recovery takes ti and it does affect combat power to so extent.
Even so, none of the four major experts from Thunder Palace, including the immortal with the severed arm, complained about Lei Yi Immortal King; instead, they felt relieved.
Because they all knew if not for Lei Yi Immortal King’s tily intervention, the white fla could have quickly spread over the immortal’s entire body, resulting in endless pain and death.
However, this incident left Lei Yi Immortal King and the other four immortals from Thunder Palace greatly shaken, with a sense of pessimism and despair looming in their hearts.
"You must need a substantial amount of cultivation resources to enhance your strength after rebirth, right? If you spare us, we’re willing to give you all our cultivation resources..."
Lei Yi Immortal King suddenly spoke, and seeing Fang Bai unresponsive, he continued, "Moreover, we know the precise locations of several large Immortal Stone veins. If you spare us, we’ll tell you as well."
He knew that when War Emperor was alive, he was a very proud and powerful expert, and after rebirth, his cultivation level was quite low. He must be eager to restore his peak strength from years past to take revenge on the Eight Immortal Emperors.
To rapidly enhance his cultivation level and restore power, he would need an imnse amount of cultivation resources. Fang Bai, currently at the second-tier Immortal Venerable Realm, finds it hard to acquire too many cultivation resources at once, so Lei Yi Immortal King used this to entice Fang Bai.
"I can swear: Once we leave this formation, we’ll imdiately depart from Ice Fire Island and never return. If I break this oath, may I be struck by five thunders, utterly disintegrated!"
Fearing Fang Bai might not believe him, Lei Yi Immortal King raised his head to the sky, flicked a drop of essence blood, and sincerely made a toxic oath.
The five thunders is considered one of the most severe punishnts in the Immortal Realm; if soone swears such an oath with their essence blood, they will be monitored by the Heavenly Dao. If they break it, divine thunder will strike, leading to total annihilation.
Even in his past life, Fang Bai wouldn’t dare casually make such an oath because no peak Immortal Emperor could withstand the descending divine thunder.
Unmoved, Fang Bai sneered, "What a joke! If I need cultivation resources, I can find them myself without your help."
Lei Yi Immortal King was stunned, and then he rembered the forr Invincible War Emperor was boundless in mana, capable of burrowing through the earth and sea, virtually omnipotent. It was said he had traveled countless treasure and perilous lands across the nine Heavenly Domains of the Immortal Realm. If anyone knew where to find cultivation resources, it would be him.
If he truly lacked cultivation resources, he could easily find them himself, rendering his offer redundant.
"If you kill us, Thunder Palace will definitely sense it. Our Palace Master will be enraged and dispatch a hundred thousand disciples across the Immortal Realm to find you! Once you’re discovered, death is certain! Don’t forget, you’re not the invincible War Emperor anymore, just a second-tier Immortal Venerable Realm little immortal!"
Failing to entice, Lei Yi Immortal King shifted to threats.
In the Immortal Realm, every disciple of any Immortal Sect or School leaves a Soul Lamp in their Soul Hall of their sect. If the Soul Lamp goes out, it ans the disciple has fallen.
If Fang Bai were to vanquish Lei Yi Immortal King and the other four immortals from Thunder Palace, the disciples overseeing the Soul Hall miles away would notice their Soul Lamps extinguishing and inform the Palace Master.
Both Thunder Immortal Emperor and Fang Bai were fiercely protective Immortal Emperors. If Thunder Immortal Emperor learns about the demise of Lei Yi Immortal King and others, he would definitely send nurous Thunder Palace disciples, tracing the aura of Lei Yi Immortal King and the other four all the way here.
While Fang Bai could erase traces of himself and the five Thunder Palace immortals on Ice Fire Island, the aura they left while flying here would be difficult to eliminate.
This ans that once Thunder Palace disciples learn of Lei Yi Immortal King’s demise, they will inevitably find their way here, possibly unmasking the existence of Ice Fire Island.
A hundred miles might seem distant, but if Thunder Palace’s disciples first use a teleportation array to reach Suru Temple, then track the aura here from there, it wouldn’t take long.
Therefore, Fang Bai decided to swiftly deal with Lei Yi Immortal King and the other four immortals, ticulously erasing all evidence here to leave Thunder Palace with no clues to continue tracking.
With his current strength, encountering an Immortal King Realm expert would make self-preservation difficult, and he wished to avoid an early confrontation with Thunder Palace’s forces.
"A second-tier Immortal Venerable Realm little immortal can still take you down!"
Fang Bai approached the Ice Profound Fire, circulated the Nine Revolutions True Fire Art, his eyes shimring with light as he slowly brought his left palm closer, soon establishing a connection with the extre cold Immortal Fire, forming a mutual understanding.
Fang Bai had subdued the Ice Profound Fire in his forr life and gifted it to the Fiery Emperor. Now that the Fiery Emperor had fallen, rendering the Ice Profound Fire ownerless, subduing it again posed no difficulty for Fang Bai.
"Now, let you experience the true power of the Yin-Yang Profound Fire Formation!"
His gaze as cold as the chilling aura released by the Ice Profound Fire, Fang Bai lightly shouted, summoning the Red Silkworm Immortal Fire from his body, and simultaneously thrusting forward with both palms, causing the Ice Profound Fire and Red Silkworm Immortal Fire to release polar opposite auras of extre heat and cold, which continuously infused into the Yin-Yang Profound Fire Formation.
The Yin-Yang Profound Fire Formation rapidly circulated under the stimulus of the two Immortal Fires’ powers, conjuring giant serpentine red and white fire dragons within the formation, which spiraled and clawed around Lei Yi Immortal King and the other four immortals, incessantly spewing flas at them.
The blending of the extrely cold and hot Immortal Fires, weaving into a red and white interwoven sea of flas, consistently squeezed the space around Lei Yi Immortal King and the four other immortals, forcing them to huddle back-to-back and jointly fend off the invading Immortal Fire.
They incessantly unleashed thunder attacks to try and vanquish the two roaming fire dragons, but the mont their thunder erged, it would be devoured by the surrounding sea of flas, to little effect.
Instead, the thunder domain they established around themselves temporarily isolated the pressing sea of flas.
However, this stalemate was extrely exhausting on their immortal power, and after an indeterminate length of ti, the five immortals from Thunder Palace began feeling their exhausting immortal force becoming insufficient to keep the sea of flas at bay. The biting extre cold and scorching heat alternately assaulted them, almost devouring their bodies, filling them with despair.
