The Human Emperor c1-2382

by Huangfu Qi (皇甫奇)

  I hope the Origin Immortal Lord will be okay.

  Wang Chong felt rather uneasy. This foe was extremely powerful and forceful, and he didn’t know whether the Origin Immortal Lord could deal with him.

  As this thought flitted through his mind, Wang Chong heard the Origin Immortal Lord’s voice. “Yellow Dragon, I won’t hand over the Doomsday Insignia! Just give up!”

  The thunderous voice of the Origin Immortal Lord sounded extremely cold and calm.

  Boom!

  A moment later, two energies that could make almost every martial artist of the current age pale in fear clashed like comets, their immense impact shaking the earth. Crash! Another large shower of rock fragments came from above.

  “Careful!” everyone called out in alarm.

  These rocks plummeting from high above were one thing, but they also had to consider the frightening power of True Lord Yellow Dragon and the Origin Immortal Lord. These rocks were being propelled by their power and were extremely threatening to all the martial artists present.

  Bang!

  The rocks howled downward like meteors.

  Bang! Bang! Bang! They pelted the layers of bronze slabs protruding from the rock walls.

  “Ah!”

  A martial artist who had been gripping the edge of a bronze slab was struck by a rock, and before he could react, he went down together with the bronze slab he gripped.

  Boomboomboom!

  More collisions rang out and the countless martial artists began to dodge and evade in panic.

  True Lord Yellow Dragon and the Origin Immortal Lord were simply too strong. Not even the bronze slabs were able to endure the impacts of the rocks, and simply snapped off at their bases.

  “Chong-er, careful!” the Demonic Emperor Old Man anxiously cried out from above.

  Wang Chong looked up and saw a large boulder that had to weigh at least ten thousand jin hurtling downward. Even before the boulder had descended, Wang Chong could sense the powerful gales cutting at his face.

  Boom!

  This boulder was about to smash the bronze plank that Wang Chong was on and all the other bronze planks in his vicinity into scrap metal.

  These two are too powerful!

  Wang Chong managed to barely dodge the massive boulder, but the explosive shockwave striking his Stellar Energy barrier still felt incredibly dangerous to Wang Chong.

  Great Yin Yang Art!

  As more and more stones came down, Wang Chong used one of his supreme techniques.

  The air howled as everything within a range of nearly one thousand feet around Wang Chong began to shift around.

  Each of these falling rocks had a frightening momentum behind it, and taking them head-on was no wise move. But Wang Chong could use the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art to alter their trajectories.

  Thunderous booms rang out, but Wang Chong had succeeded in guiding these falling stones to land in unoccupied areas.

  Roooar!

  But at this moment, a roar that was half-human and half-beast came from above.

  Before Wang Chong could react, a black figure as large as a hill came from above, and even before landing, it was already sending a massive black fist seething with energy at Wang Chong and the martial artists near him.

  Wang Chong seemed to be nothing more than an ant in front of this fist, not even taller than a single finger.

  “Young Patriarch, watch out!”

  The Origin Immortal Chief paled at this sight.

  The Yellow Scarf Warrior was completely different from before. A dreadful energy drawn from the deepest abyss was running through his body. Not even a revived first-generation successor would be any match for him.

  Boom! Boom!

  The giant fist of the Yellow Scarf Warrior instantly pulverized two nearby martial artists.

  Wang Chong had a slightly faster reaction and was able to lunge away while at the same time launching a counterattack.

  “Life Execution!”

  Sword Qi howled out from Wang Chong’s body in a massive pillar of energy, and it took only an instant to pierce through the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s body.

  But to Wang Chong’s surprise, this attack that not even the Goat Immortal had dared to take directly was just shrugged off by the Yellow Scarf Warrior.

  Not only that, he flew over, completely unaffected by the pull from the abyss, and attacked Wang Chong again.

  Wang Chong could clearly see the rocks in the surroundings flying to the Yellow Scarf Warrior and merging into his body, and he could also see the massive wound he had just inflicted beginning to rapidly close.

  Wang Chong’s destructive Sword Qi had been completely ineffective!

  But Wang Chong quickly understood what was going on.

  His body is wrapped in stone. If I don’t hit his actual body, I won’t be able to inflict very much damage, Wang Chong quietly said to himself.

  The ground that all of them had been standing on had crumbled, causing all of them to fall, and the pull from the abyss was ever-present. Every one of them could fall into danger at any moment.

  But the Yellow Scarf Warrior was different. This rocky environment was an exact match for his Earth Element arts. He could navigate this place like a fish in water, with even the pull from the abyss having little effect on him.

  As these thoughts flew through Wang Chong’s mind, Wang Chong shot backward like a bird, gracefully dodging the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s attack.

  At the same time, he sent a burst of tremendous Psychic Energy at the Yellow Scarf Warrior. There was no faster method of finding the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s real body than Psychic Energy.

  Wang Chong expected the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s real body to be easily distinguishable from the rock body, but reality took him completely by surprise.

  Wang Chong clearly sensed that every part of the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s from top to bottom was identical. It did not seem to be a body of rock, but of flesh and blood.

  It was impossible for his Psychic Energy to identify where the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s real body was located.

  “How could this be?”

  Wang Chong’s eyes widened as his face grimaced.

  He had battled with the bamboo hat leader in the Yellow Scarf Warrior form before, and it had never been like this. But in a flash, Wang Chong noticed something and coldly laughed.

  “Hmph, this alone still isn’t enough to deal with me!”

  A moment later, Wang Chong used his tangible Psychic Energy to fiercely collide with the bestial Yellow Scarf Warrior.

  Boom!

  Two immense streams of Psychic Energy collided in the air with little grace or skill, like two fists slamming into each other. Wang Chong’s mind was shaken by the immense impact, but the Yellow Scarf Warrior had fared little better.

  Awoooo! As Wang Chong’s Psychic Energy struck, a howl resounded. Wang Chong got a momentary glimpse of three figures emerging in the roiling black energy of the Yellow Scarf Warrior, their faces twisted as they howled in pain.

  And even more shocking was that Wang Chong found those three figures rather familiar. Though their faces were blurry and twisted in pain, he could still recognize some of their facial features.

  “Chong-er, be careful! That man put together the souls of the Goat, Deer, and Tiger Immortals and placed them into the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s body to create that thing!” the Demonic Emperor Old Man anxiously cried out.

  “What?!”

  Wang Chong was stunned.

  While in the Origin Immortal Palace, he had been unaware of what was going on outside, so he knew nothing about how True Lord Yellow Dragon had enslaved the souls of the three Immortals and remodeled the Yellow Scarf Warrior.

  Boom!

  At this moment, his surroundings darkened as another massive fist hurtled toward him. Wang Chong only had time to hurriedly muster his Stellar Energy and make a punch of his own.

  Wang Chong felt like he had tried to punch an entire mountain, and immediately saw stars. The bl
ood in his body seethed and he felt a sweetness at his tongue as he attempted to suppress the urge to vomit.

  This Yellow Scarf Warrior’s cultivation level was not that frightening, but his strength… Not even Wang Chong at his current level of power could do much to it.

  Boom! Wang Chong’s body seemed to freeze in the air for a moment before he was sent flying.

  Roooar!

  With one last glance, Wang Chong saw the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s enormous body standing on the wall, his feet merged with the rock. On his head, a black band covered in mysterious ancient symbols had appeared, and an immense pull originated from this band that drew back the souls of the Goat, Deer, and Tiger Immortals.

  Kaboom! An explosion came from the Yellow Scarf Warrior, and then countless pieces of stone and dirt flew through the air and began to merge with the Yellow Scarf Warrior.

  The Yellow Scarf Warrior’s body was already immense, but it was now stimulated by another power to grow even larger.

  Seventy meters! Eighty meters! Finally, at nearly one hundred meters, its intimidating and divine body stopped growing. Boom! Two more arms emerged from the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s shoulders.

  In the blink of an eye, the Yellow Scarf Warrior had transformed into some four-armed monster, a demonic god. And this was not merely an external transformation. The Yellow Scarf Warrior’s strength also swelled to a new and terrifying level.

  Whoosh!

  Black waves of Stellar Energy erupted from the four-armed Yellow Scarf Warrior, sweeping toward the surrounding martial artists.

  “Ah!”

  “Save me!”

  Those martial artists hiding out on the bronze slabs screamed as their bodies were rapidly petrified. Everyone struck by this energy was turned into black soil and then stone.

  “Everyone, together!”

  “What are you afraid of? Rather than just waiting here to die, we should work together and kill him!”

  Above the Yellow Scarf Warrior, several martial artists clinging to the rock walls angrily roared as they shot out from their perches and attacked.

  But the massive Yellow Scarf Warrior didn’t even glance at them, simply sending a black wave howling upward. The Stellar Energy erupting from their weapons turned black and then to stone along with their bodies, and they plummeted into the abyss.

  “Young Patriarch, be careful! This is the Earth Devil Art!” the Origin Immortal Chief called out from a distant stone wall, her voice brimming with panic.

  “Earth Devil Art?”

  Wang Chong’s eyes widened, but there was no time to think, as the roaring Yellow Scarf Warrior was once more throwing a punch at him. The assistance from True Lord Yellow Dragon had pushed the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s strength to new heights, even boosting its petrification abilities to new levels. In this precipitous environment, even Wang Chong was forced to avoid this kind of attack.

  Bang! Wang Chong drew back his hands, arched his body, and propelled himself toward a rock wall fifty to sixty meters away. Just when he was about to fall into the abyss, he hooked his arm around a bronze slab.

  The bronze slabs the Origin Immortal Chief had summoned were like a gift of charcoal in the middle of a blizzard to everyone here, proving to be of great assistance.

  “Number Seven, kill that brat! And kill everyone else here too!”

  True Lord Yellow Dragon’s voice resounded like thunder.

  Wang Chong’s heart trembled, and a moment later, the Yellow Scarf Warrior bellowed and began to chase Wang Chong. All the martial artists that entered its vision during this pursuit also fell victim to its attacks.

  Boomboomboom!

  Like a large and bulky machine, the Yellow Scarf Warrior moved down the walls, wrecking everything in its path, its frightening power obliterating all the bronze slabs it encountered.

  “Kill!”

  Some martial artists angrily bellowed as they shot forward and attacked the Yellow Scarf Warrior from various directions, hoping to use their agile bodies to attack this black demon god.

  Whoosh!

  At this moment, in a gust of strong wind, several figures landed in an area close to Wang Chong.

  “Alliance Lord Song!” Wang Chong instantly recognized one of these men.

  “It’s no good! We’re no match for this monster. Ordinary attacks are completely useless against it. Moreover, its rock hide is too thick, and the majority of the attacks can’t even get past it.”

  In another gust of wind, another figure rushed toward Wang Chong’s location.

  “Not only that, this old man fired a Soul-Snatching Needle into its body just now, but this scoundrel was completely fine. The Soul-Snatching Needles of the evil path are coated in a fierce poison that not even this old man would be able to endure… This scoundrel is no longer human!”

  Wang Chong looked over and found to his astonishment that it was the Black Yin Ancestor!

  The Black Yin Ancestor appeared rather embarrassed when he saw Wang Chong’s surprise glance, but he quickly changed subjects.

  “We already fought with it while you were inside the Origin Immortal Palace, but none of us were any match for it. I, Alliance Lord Song, Xie Guangting, and a few others all worked together, but we still couldn’t kill it.”

  “What?!”

  Wang Chong couldn’t help but tremble. The combined might of all these experts was immense, but not even they had been enough to kill the Yellow Scarf Warrior. This was simply too shocking.

  “Now is not the time to talk. This steep environment is not at all to our advantage. Our first task should be to get to the bottom of this abyss,” Song Yuanyi sternly replied.

  Righteous Alliance Vice Lord Xie Guangting came in from another direction and landed on a bronze slab.

  “I tried the passage, but even with my full strength, I couldn’t get through the seal. On the contrary, the repulsive power from the seal almost injured me! We can no longer use the passage!”

  Xie Guangting’s strength was acknowledged throughout the martial arts world and his Universe Sundering Art was unmatched when it came to sheer damaging power, something that even the Black Yin Ancestor and his peers had to admit. If not even Xie Guangting could break through that seal, the others didn’t even need to try.

  The mood turned strange, and everyone turned their eyes to Wang Chong.

  The Black Yin Ancestor and Song Yuanyi had been old enemies for decades, and the Five Ancestor Alliance and Righteous Alliance had many grudges between them. Even in this dangerous situation, the two of them found it hard to let go of their pride and sincerely cooperate.

  At a moment like this, a noble of the court like Wang Chong was a perfect intermediary.

  Moreover, Wang Chong had previously killed the Goat, Deer, and Tiger Immortals, and even entered the Origin Immortal Palace. At this time, he had come to be regarded as the strongest of the group and their leader.

  Boom!

  At this moment, the Yellow Scarf Warrior discovered the impromptu gathering down below and waved an arm, extracting a column of stone seventy to eighty meters long from the wall. With a shake of its hand, the Yellow Scarf Warrior turned the column into a whip and swung it.

  As it swung the whip, the Yellow Scarf Warrior attached its petrification power to it.

  There was a thunderous boom as the stone whip cracked down on the gathering site, sending shards of stone and bronze flying in every direction. Wang Chong, Song Yuanyi, Xie Guangting, and the Black Yin Ancestor immediately began to head deeper into the abyss.

  Rumble!

  Several more heaven-sundering booms came from above.

  The two god-like existences of the Origin Immortal Lord and True Lord Yellow Dragon were fiercely clashing, the golden waves of energy illuminating the place as brightly as day, plating the rocks and the bronze slabs protruding from the
m in a layer of gold.

  Crash! Crush! Another large sheet of rocks was knocked loose from the ceiling and sent down.

  The Yellow Scarf Warrior was a constant threat, but the ‘aftershocks’ of this battle between two supreme experts were even more dangerous, those falling rocks imbued with lethal force.

  “Let’s go!”

  Wang Chong led the group without hesitation into the abyss.

  But at this moment, as Wang Chong scanned the area, he widened his eyes in shock.

  The Origin Immortal Chief!

  He had spotted the familiar figure of the Origin Immortal Chief on a nearby bronze slab.

  She had apparently been caught up in the aftershocks of the previous battle, as her face was pale and her breathing ragged. Above her, rocks were raining down like meteors. The Origin Immortal Chief’s face was taut, and it was obvious that she could not block this wave of attacks.

  “Careful!”

  Wang Chong immediately started to go back up, braving the dangers of the falling stones to reach the Origin Immortal Chief.

  Boomboomboom!

  He moved like a lightning bolt, weaving his way through the rocks as he rapidly approached the Origin Immortal Chief.

  As he zigged and zagged, he waved his sword, sending dazzling white bolts of Sword Qi into the falling rocks, which were cut and crushed into smaller pieces.

  These stones all possessed immense power, so even Wang Chong’s God Demon Obliteration Sword Qi felt a powerful resistance as it cut through them.

  “Careful!”

  A large boulder was hurtling toward the Origin Immortal Chief’s position, and Wang Chong immediately shot forward, leaving a trail of afterimages in his wake. He grabbed the Origin Immortal Chief while at the same time sending a torrent of energy at the boulder.
