The Immortal Emperor Returns C439 – Tormented and Disfigured!

Not even a Human Immortal could walk in the air.

The new arrival, along with the pressure that he exerted, was terrifying. Everywhere that he passed, space would contort and wind would gather.

Moreover, he was shockingly fast. Initially a distant black dot, he appeared in the blink of an eye in front of the hand that overturned the boulder.

Everyone saw that it was a tall and slender man wearing a yellow robe with golden thread and a jade crown. His face was obscured by mist, preventing others from seeing his true appearance.

“Scum from the Immortals of Assembly, you have crossed the line.”

The man's voice was as majestic as the ringing of a great bell, sending shockwaves throughout the world. Even though he seemed so very small in front of the massive hand, his might was shocking.

“Insect-like creatures, it seems that you servants have completely betrayed your masters after a thousand years.”

A sharp rebuke emerged from within the vortex. Simultaneously, the massive hand extended a finger to crush the man. Every word and action was filled with contempt.

The man snorted. His aura surged like a big wave of a frantic sea. White light engulfed his surroundings and blocked the massive finger, preventing it from falling.

“It's not up to you to decide who the masters and the servants are.”

The man sounded apathetic as he gently raised his hand and twisted space.

Whoosh!

The vast expanse of white light began to spin into a tornado, entwining the massive finger.

Suddenly, a furious scream came from within the vortex.

Back on earth, everyone watching the battle through live broadcast widened their eyes at this. They felt cold all over.

The white light whirled around the massive finger at an incredible speed, lacerating the flesh on the finger and sending chunks of meat flying.

Breaking and snapping sounds continued.

The white light not only lacerated the flesh on the finger but ground its bones to powder in a flash as well.

Furious and panicked screams emerged from the vortex until one of the fingers on the massive hand completely disintegrated.

“Despicable slave, you dare hurt me.” A voice colored with disbelief came from the vortex.

“Who do you think you are to call yourself a master in front of me?”

The man's voice was brimming with ice. He raised his hand to grab yet another massive finger and twisted it forcefully.

The forefinger of the massive hand was twisted and knotted immediately, its flesh lacerated and bloody. Even its bone snapped in several parts from the force.

The gigantic hand was so strong that it could even crush the Nether Mountain, and yet two of its fingers were easily broken by the man's raise of a hand.

How horrifying! Even through the screen, the viewers of the live broadcast could feel their stomach churning.

“Insect, I'm going to kill you!” A deafening bellow came from the vortex.

The massive hand didn't seem to weaken after losing two fingers. It attacked with fury and slammed hard, wanting to crush the man into minced meat.

The elderly man looked at the descending hand and raised his own hand.

Whoosh!

A tremendous force began to spin around him. In the blink of an eye, the force transformed into a terrifying tornado.

The tornado, like an evil dragon descending upon the world, swept the massive hand along with its arm into its core.

“Ahh!” A panicked scream came from the vortex.

Rain of blood fell on the ground as the massive hand and arm were twisted by the tornado. Inch by inch, their flesh ruptured and turned into bloody mud.

Crack!

The arm emerging from the vortex was hundreds of feet long. It was so thick that not even five men would be able to surround it. And yet, the tornado managed to snap it off its elbow. The severed arm, along with its remaining three fingers and palm, had been reduced to powder.

Everyone was so shocked that their limbs turned cold. This was too horrifying. The massive hand possessed enough power to ruin the world, and yet the man easily snapped it in half.

Was this man trying to scare them to death? How could there be such a terrible existence on earth?

“Despicable slave, you dare hurt your master. I swear I'll behead you today.” The owner of the massive hand was going mad after losing half of his arm. Blood was gushing out of his wound, making for a frightening sight.

“You must have a death wish to call yourself a master in front of me.”

By the time everyone heard the man's icy voice, he had already skyrocketed into the air to go after the intact half of the arm. He made a slash high up in the sky, and a dangerous gleam that spanned ten meters flashed for a second.

Puff!

Blood spilled everywhere as the intact half of the arm was cut down. The man made it look as easy as if he was just cutting a radish.

“Ahh!” The owner of the arm cried in pain.

The man hovered in the air and twirled his hand, causing the severed arm to blow up into a bloody mist. His momentum was incredible.

“Who the hell are you? How can you have such strong cultivation?” asked the voice in the vortex. This time, he didn't dare to refer to himself as a master anymore.

“You're unworthy of that information. All you need to know is that the Assembly of Immortals can never step foot on earth anymore. Otherwise, every last one of them will be killed.” The man was very domineering.

Rumble!

A shockwave ripped through the air as the enormous vortex in the sky rapidly expanded. A head the size of a mountain poked out, and two eyes the size of lanterns stared coldly at the man in the yellow robe.

It was an utterly ordinary but frighteningly large face. It possessed a dreadful might that made everyone who looked at it shudder in fear.

“You're just an illusion. Put away your little tricks.”

The man was full of contempt. He raised his hand, conjuring a palm imprint that caused explosions in the air. In the blink of an eye, the palm imprint grew big enough to cover the sky and landed squarely on the enormous face.

Slam!

The slap resounded sharply and clearly in everyone's ears. When the massive palm imprint hit the enormous face, the impact warped its features and caused blood to spill from its mouth. Even its two front teeth, like two doors, were knocked out and fell from the sky. They crashed and produced two large dents on the ground.

“Ahh!” The enormous face screamed and grimaced in pain. Its facial features twisted horrendously.

The man swung his hand again, and the massive palm imprint whizzed out.

Slam!

This time, his slap produced a distinct crack of the bone. Blood splashed all over the enormous face.

The owner of the enormous face was truly afraid. It withdrew abruptly to hide inside the vortex.

“How can you run without paying the price?” The man was domineering. The enormous face had retreated inside the vortex but one-third of its arm was still outside.

The man flew upward and raised a hand to conjure another massive palm imprint. The palm imprint grabbed the damaged arm and pulled it down with force.

Puff!

Blood gushed out like a broken faucet, raining down upon the earth as if heaven was weeping. The man ripped the enormous arm off its shoulder. One could see that a thick, solid bloody tendon hanging off the ripped arm.

Boom!

The massive palm imprint tightened its grip, and the severed arm instantly turned into a bloody mist.

“Lowly insects! When the Assembly of Immortals arrives, they will purge you despicable servants with blood.” A ruthless voice came out of the gradually shrinking vortex.

“You can boast again when you actually come down here.” The man sounded detached, appearing contemptuous of the threat. He raised his hand again, and an explosion shook the air. A golden phantom dragon skyrocketed into the sky and charged into the vortex.

Boom!

The golden phantom dragon blew up. The rest could only hear the deafening explosion but not see it, for the vortex had completely vanished. The sky became sunny again but everyone could vividly hear a mournful scream just as the vortex disappeared.

Everyone looked at the tall and straight figure in the air. How strong! How domineering! The owner of the enormous face was undoubtedly a terrifying existence from the Assembly of Immortals, and even then, he was utterly bullied by this man. The man had easily ripped off his arm and tormented him into deformity.

While everyone was still reeling from shock and horror, the man descended on the ground. He raised his hand, summoning a whizzing gale that could blast even the heaviest of boulders away.

Suddenly, he stepped forward and raised his hand to send a heavy boulder away, revealing the person lying underneath.

Everyone could see that the person was Chu Xun the Devil.

His body was covered in blood and his eyes were tightly shut. No one knew if he was dead or alive. Even so, his body was intact.

This shocked everyone. As expected of Chu Xun the Devil! Even after taking such a strong hit, even after the Nether Mountain collapsed, his body was still intact. It was apparent how sturdy his body was.

The man carried Chu Xun the Devil, whose survival was still a mystery, and flew into the sky. They disappeared in just seconds.

It was the arrival of the man in the yellow robe that abruptly stopped the battle between the human warriors and the Lost Races warriors.

At this very moment, Luo Yuan noticed that the Lost Races were trying to slip away.

“Kill these bastards!”

Luo Yuan screamed and pounced at his enemies.

Yet another bloody battle began.

There weren't many from the Lost Races, and most were low-level Human Kings. They were so quickly massacred by the human warriors that they had to retreat little by little.

Kong Ying panicked when she saw this. She returned to her original form and flew into the sky.

The Winged race immediately followed suit after noticing her actions, flapping their wings as they took flight.

The Zombies and Draconians were left to suffer the human warriors' slaughter due to their inability to fly. Huge beasts collapsed one after another, leaving behind pools of blood.

“Despicable humans. We will remember this.” Kong Ying looked down at everyone with a grim expression.

“Damned bird. Come down if you dare. And the rest of you wenches, too. Come down if you have the balls!” Human warriors yelled at them.

“Lowly insects. Sooner or later, we will take revenge for today.” A cold-faced Kong Ying spread her wings and flew away.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, a white light attacked her at the speed of lightning.

Puff!

The white light perforated Kong Ying's neck, spilling blood everywhere. Her large body fell from the sky and fell so hard that the ground shuddered.

Everyone turned their heads and stared in shock.

They saw a woman with a grim expression on her pretty face. Dressed in white clothes, she looked like a goddess. She was so beautiful that it was almost unreal.

It was Jing Hong who had rushed here to help.

True Energy was surging around her. Pure ice lotuses were hovering in the air, blossoming gradually.

Jing Hong flicked her fingers, and the ice lotuses began to spin rapidly, shooting out blade-like ice leaves.

Puff! Puff!

Blood spilled everywhere as the Winged race screeched mournfully. The terrifying ice leaves perforated their throats, wings, and bodies.

The Wingeds screamed and fell from the sky one after another.

In no time at all, twenty or so Wingeds fell. None of them escaped Jing Hong's massacre.

“Where is Chu Xun?” Jing Hong asked one of the human warriors.

“Someone… someone saved and took him away.” The human warrior felt as if every last drop of blood inside of him froze under Jing Hong's gaze. He was so startled that his voice quivered.

“Who saved him?” Jing Hong asked.

The human warrior described the appearance of the man who saved Chu Xun the Devil.

Jing Hong immediately knew it was Emperor Ao.

She turned around, turned into a white light, and sped away.

Everyone at the scene exchanged looks. Why was everyone connected to Chu Xun the Devil so terrifying?

Emperor Ao took Chu Xun away by air, traveling like a meteor streaking across the sky.

Rumble!

Suddenly, an explosion went off in the air. Thick dark clouds began to gather above Emperor Ao.

His expression changed ever so slightly. To think that the Law of the World detected him after just four hours, and celestial calamity was about to befall him.

Emperor Ao increased his speed sharply. He knew that he must return to Dragon's Back before celestial calamity struck. He could take it, but Chu Xun couldn't. A single punishing bolt of lightning would reduce Chu Xun to dust in his current state.

He made a mistake in his judgment this time. He didn't think it would attract the arrival of an Earth Immortal. Fortunately, the Earth Immortal was bound by rules and couldn't come down to earth. Otherwise, a calamity would await them. Besides him, no one on earth was capable of fighting an Earth Immortal.

Chu Xun was the unlucky one. He nearly died today.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Dark clouds continued to gather as lightning sizzled in the background.

Celestial calamity was brewing in the background. It seemed like it was almost done and about to land on Emperor Ao.

Fortunately, Emperor Ao was fast enough. Every step he took carried him tens of thousands of meters away. He was able to carry Chu Xun to Dragon's Back a second before thunder calamity fell.

If celestial calamity struck, Emperor Ao could withstand four punishing lightning bolts with his current cultivation. However, Chu Xun might die with just one. Moreover, one bolt of lightning was strong enough to destroy most of the capital city.

He couldn't help but sigh in relief at successfully evading the celestial calamity.
