Unlocking The Easy Mode Of Cultivation After Getting Married - Chapter 597
Chapter 597: Chapter 597 Escape is Inevitable_1
“Since Senior has personally arrived, our Xiashou Star has thus fulfilled your commission, and once Senior captures the Phoenix Immortal, we will return to the Immortal World to report back to the Immortal King.”
The Kong-surnamed immortal clasped his hands together and said.
Even if the other party might be an avatar of the Immortal Master, he still maintained his pride and dignity.
He was representing Xiashou Star, which was under the Immortal King’s domain, while the other party was merely an avatar of a Demon Immortal Master.
There was also a possibility that the other party was simply an ordinary Demon Immortal, merely impersonating an avatar of the Immortal Master.
“To prevent her from escaping, you should open the Amulet Cover and strike together with this incarnation,” said the man in white.
“Senior, the three of us are already out of fighting strength, I’m afraid we won’t be able to assist Senior. Please forgive us,” the Kong-surnamed immortal responded without rashly opening the protective shield.
That was their last life-saving card, impervious to breach.
Once opened, it could no longer be used.
What if this man in white was not the intended savior but actually an accomplice of the Phoenix Immortal?
Even if the man in white truly was here to confront the Phoenix Immortal, they still couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t turn on them.
Although the Monster Immortal Realm is considered part of the whole vast Immortal World, it has always been rather insular, and it is not without its share of tyrannical and ruthless Demon Immortals.
Demon Immortals are not like those immortals in Bai Huatian who transformed from plants. Plant-transformed immortals are mostly of a gentle nature.
Most of the inhabitants in the Monster Immortal Realm are animal-transformed immortals, and those of violent disposition are not few. This was not in the Immortal World, where if anyone killed them here, no one would ever know.
“Fine,” the man in white said upon hearing the Kong-surnamed immortal speak thus and gave up on the idea of asking them to join the battle.
His hand suddenly moved, but he was not striking at the Phoenix Immortal, but rather… at an empty spot where no one stood.
From there, a figure was forced into visibility.
As this shadow revealed itself, the Phoenix Immortal’s expression changed once more.
The figure, naturally, was Qin Changqing.
The Phoenix Immortal hadn’t expected that Qin Changqing would be hiding so close by, and for such a long time.
But now, the murderous intent in her eyes towards Qin Changqing had diminished significantly.
Because her real nemesis had arrived.
“It’s him!”
Inside the shield, the Kong-surnamed immortal recognized Qin Changqing.
When he arrived, even though Qin Changqing took a step back, as an immortal with one glance, he memorized all the distinguished individuals present, even without trying.
He didn’t know who Qin Changqing was, for after his descent, he had only inquired about the situation of the Demon Cultivators.
But he was aware that Qin Changqing must be a powerful Tribulation Passing Stage expert from Ling Yu.
“When did he get here?”
The Kong-surnamed immortal didn’t know Qin Changqing’s strength, nor when he had slipped in stealthily.
From his perspective, a Tribulation Passing expert daring to wander onto the battlefield of immortals was utterly foolhardy.
A single glance from an immortal could cause a Tribulation Passing expert to die countless times over.
Yet just now, Qin Changqing had somehow evaded the strike from the man in white.
This caused the Kong-surnamed immortal to look at Qin Changqing with a slightly increased regard.
As for why Qin Changqing had only just been discovered, he simply assumed that Qin Changqing had just snuck over.
“A Separated Immortal?”
After scanning Qin Changqing, the man in white confirmed his identity.
Merely a Separated Immortal.
No matter what Qin Changqing’s intentions were, to him, they posed no threat. Being able to hide there, in his view, might simply be due to Qin Changqing having some special method.
At this moment, here, he had already become the absolute sovereign.
In control of the entire situation.
“Since you’re here, join in the fight against her,” said the man in white before suddenly launching an attack on the Phoenix Immortal.
Without a word, the Phoenix Immortal immediately transformed into a black phoenix.
Her wings flapped once, and she rushed outside.
But it was completely futile.
The figure in white had long been waiting there, and with a simple slap, sent the Phoenix Immortal flying backwards.
The next second, the figure in white appeared behind the Phoenix Immortal and slapped out again.
However, at that moment, black Phoenix Flames suddenly erupted from the Phoenix Immortal’s body.
“Trivial trickery!”
The man in white huffed, seeming to have anticipated this move from the Phoenix Immortal; a feather appeared in his hand.
The Phoenix Flames touched upon the feather, yet not even a single one could break through!
“This guy, he also has the Phoenix Bloodline!”
Qin Changqing thought to himself.
This man in white, he must also be from the Phoenix Clan.
“The male is named Feng and the female, Huang, which means the Phoenix Immortal was originally known as Jiu Huang.”
Many thoughts crossed Qin Changqing’s mind.
The Phoenix isn’t exclusive to females; the males are called Feng, and the females, Huang.
It’s just that, usually, the distinction isn’t made in their titles.
“Could it be that in the Phoenix Immortal’s dream, the source of her tragedy came from within the Phoenix Clan itself?”
Qin Changqing pondered.
It seemed very likely.
Although the man in white spoke very little and wasn’t like the typical villains in some TV dramas who deliberately explain themselves at length for the audience to understand the plot,
Qin Changqing, piecing together the various facts he had learned, already had his suspicions.
The prowess of the man in white was truly formidable. From the very start of their battle, the Phoenix Immortal was not only unable to defeat him but also had no means of escape.
From the strength he has displayed now, he is no less than at the mid-to-late phase of a Heavenly Immortal.
“Could this guy really be an avatara of an Immortal Master?”
Qin Changqing had a similar suspicion.
But he felt vaguely that it might not be so simple.
This trip to Xiashou Star, as it appears now, was taken on the commission of a Demon Immortal from the Monster Immortal Realm to deal with the Phoenix Immortal.
It seemed that the Demon Immortals from the Monster Immortal Realm were just using the immortals from Xiashou Star as scouts.
Now, the Demon Immortal has made a move himself.
Yet Qin Changqing inexplicably felt it was not as straightforward.
With such formidable strength, why would the Demon Immortal need the help of those three immortals?
As these thoughts spun in Qin Changqing’s head, the disadvantage of the Phoenix Immortal became more and more apparent.
She was completely overwhelmed.
Originally, after the intense clash with the three immortals, the Phoenix Immortal had already expended a great deal of her energy.
Now facing such a powerful man in white, she was utterly outmatched.
“Boom!”
At that moment, the Phoenix Immortal suddenly erupted with another wave of energy.
Immediately afterward, the illusion of the Devil Immortal appeared again on her body.
Good heavens!
The Devil Immortal Illusion was still there!
It seemed that this Devil Immortal Illusion was not a one-time thing; every time the Phoenix Immortal activated it, there was a price to pay and a cooldown period.
Seeing the Devil Immortal Illusion, the man in white’s complexion darkened. With a movement of his hand, he shot out a dense volley of feathers.
In an instant, the Phoenix Immortal was surrounded by countless feathers, which formed a huge cage, severing the connection between the Devil Immortal Illusion and the outside world.
“What are you waiting for, strike now, that’s a Semi-Saint Illusion. If she regains consciousness again, we’re all dead!”
The man in white shouted sharply.
Seeing that the Devil Immortal Illusion was about to solidify, the Kong-surnamed immortal, who had already experienced its might, no longer hesitated, broke the amulet cover, and attacked with the other two immortals at the same time.
But immediately, his expression drastically changed.
Because, just as they had broken the amulet cover, the man in white suddenly attacked them.
