Chapter 408: Hometown Is Still Hometown

After Lin Jiufeng killed the golden-haired Immortal Emperor, he looked at the other two Immortal Emperors.

His cold gaze scared the two of them.

If it were before, they wouldn’t be afraid at all.

But now, the most powerful of the three, the golden-haired Immortal Emperor, had already died. They were naturally afraid of Lin Jiufeng.

But this fear was hidden under the reputation of being Immortal Emperors.

They couldn’t let the people of the world, especially the people of the mortal realm, think that they were afraid.

As Immortal Emperor powerhouses of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age, they also had their own pride.

Boom!

But in the very next moment, Lin Jiufeng directly lifted his hand and raised the Immortal Slaying Sword. His aura was surging, and the might of a powerhouse erupted like the sea. The surging sword energy invisible tore apart the sky. At this moment, with the Yin-Yang Twin Fish above his head and holding the Immortal Slaying Sword, Lin Jiufeng was like a demonic god that looked down on the world and was supremely powerful.

All the powerhouses in the mortal realm gasped when they saw this scene.

Lin Jiufeng didn’t seem to be an Immortal King, but the most powerful existence in the world, making people unable to resist.

The two Immortal Emperors from the Seven Races of the Ancient Age also felt the same at this moment.

In their eyes, Lin Jiufeng was a behemoth.

Although the world was bright at this moment, in their world, Lin Jiufeng was immersed in darkness. His eyes were cold as if he came and went from hell. The deep coldness and intensity made people despair as if he wanted to drag them into endless hell.

“You are too domineering. You alone want to kill all of us. Do you really think that you are a supreme Immortal Emperor?” The Immortal Emperor who was shrouded in a black robe sneered. He was extremely indignant. Facing the powerful Lin Jiufeng, he had the heart to resist. The blood energy in his entire body was vast and mighty. His strength as an Immortal Emperor was displayed, causing the galaxy to tremble, the sun and moon to sway. The aura of a powerhouse completely erupted.

“No matter how powerful you are, the two of us can still fight against you if we join forces. You can’t protect this mortal realm,” the Immortal Emperor with the power of the curse said coldly.

“Whether you two can resist me or not isn’t determined by your mouths, but by your strength. As Immortal Emperors, this shouldn’t be the first time that you guys have participated in the plan to sweep through the mortal realm, right?” Lin Jiufeng’s eyes were deep. Although his words were calm, at this moment, his aura was surging. A terrifying aura spread out.

Boom!

Above his head, the Yin-Yang Twin Fish slowly rotated. His Daoist techniques were natural, and his aura was torrential. He intimidated the world, making the entire mortal realm submit to the Yin-Yang Twin Fish. It also made the two Immortal Emperors from the Seven Races of the Ancient Age feel fear and cold. They felt that the current Lin Jiufeng was like the most terrifying and evil Godfiend who had walked out of the distant mythical era.

“We naturally participated in the previous plan to wipe out the mortal realm. At that time, the mortal realm was still ruled by the Immortal Court. The God Race overestimated their capabilities and vainly tried to resist the Immortal Court and the Seven Races of the Ancient Age. In that battle, the Immortal Court perished with the God Race. The Seven Races of the Ancient Age were in charge of cleaning up the battlefield. At that time, I was the one who led the team to clean up the mortal realm.” The thin Immortal Emperor whose entire body flowed with the power of a curse said with a hoarse voice.

He was recalling the past. 20,000 years ago, the Seven Races of the Ancient Age were at their peak. They were hidden behind the Immortal Court and controlled the mortal realm. They weren’t as restrained as they were today, nor were they forcefully imprisoned for more than 10,000 years by an array formation. Back then, the Seven Races of the Ancient Age were high-spirited and had countless powerhouses. Even though people from various eras resisted them, the might of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age wasn’t affected.

Unlike today, after being sealed for more than 10,000 years, they lost their faith in being invincible. Moreover, the former powerhouses of the older generation of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age had gradually fallen into a deep sleep in these 10,000 plus years and didn’t wake up. The newly born Immortal Emperors had all just grown up 20,000 years ago.

The might of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age gradually disappeared with the slumber of the older generation.

Among the Seven Races of the Ancient Age, most of the King Lords had gone deep into the Wasteland to eliminate the rebels who had been left behind from the various eras. They didn’t have time to deal with the matters of the mortal realm anymore, so this group of Immortal Emperors who came here had not much experience at all.

As a result, these two Immortal Emperors were frightened by Lin Jiufeng.

Hearing the words of this Immortal Emperor, anger rose in Lin Jiufeng’s heart. He said coldly, “Since you guys have cleaned up the mortal realm 20,000 years ago, watch as I take off your head and apologize to the people of the God Race from 20,000 years ago.”

As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Jiufeng didn’t hesitate to directly activate the Yin-Yang Twin Fish on his head with the Immortal Slaying Sword. In an instant, he almost drained all the energy in the Yin-Yang Twin Fish.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Then, Lin Jiufeng slashed out with his sword. This strike was even stronger and terrifying than when he killed the golden-haired Immortal Emperor just now.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The two Immortal Emperors from the Seven Races of the Ancient Age also wanted to resist. The Immortal Emperor who was shrouded in darkness raised his hand and struck out a Limitless Purgatory. The black energy soared and spun into a realm of hell. He presided over it like a terrifying King of Hell judging Lin Jiufeng, wanting to send him to the 18 Levels of Hell and never come out.

But this limitless purgatory and King of Hell were nothing worth mentioning in front of Lin Jiufeng.

Not to mention that it was in front of the Immortal Slaying Sword.

Lin Jiufeng slashed through the sky with his sword and tore through the sky with an incomparably terrifying aura. He also tore apart this Limitless Purgatory and even tore apart this Immortal Emperor hidden in a black robe.

Crack!

The black robe of this Immortal Emperor was directly shattered, revealing his true body. He wasn’t a human, but a standing monkey. The hair on his body had dropped, making him look shriveled.

At this moment, all the bones in this monkey’s body were broken by Lin Jiufeng’s strike. At the same time, terrifying sword energy directly struck it, causing it to tumble countless times. Its entire body was irregular, and some places directly revealed its bones. Blood was flowing out, making it look terrifying.

And this was just on the outside. Its body was already filled with the sword energy of the Immortal Slaying Sword in Lin Jiufeng’s hand. It was destroying its tendons, dantian, and divine soul in all directions, causing it to be in so much pain that it wanted to die. It knew that it couldn’t control its body anymore and could only consciously know that it was already one step closer to death.

In the very next moment, Lin Jiufeng turned around and slashed with his sword. It transformed into layers of starlight that drooped down, forming a cage entangled by the interweaving sword energies. It instantly suppressed the shriveled Immortal Emperor whose entire body flowed with the power of curses, sealing him in the air.

“Your two friends have already gone on their way one after another. How do you want to die?” Lin Jiufeng was calm and collected. He stood in the air like a god that had transcended the nine heavens. His entire body bloomed with radiance, like glass, spotless.

“You can’t kill me. What I cultivate is the Great Dao of Curse. If you kill me, the power of the curse that I have cultivated in my entire life will entangle you. Your destiny will fall to the extreme. You will be slowly devoured by the curse and ultimately fall to death.” The shriveled Immortal Emperor who was filled with the power of the curse said faintly.

His combat strength wasn’t very strong, but he had the power of the curse that countless people were afraid of. Moreover, he had cultivated the power of the curse to the Immortal Emperor Realm. This was already an extremely terrifying thing that had rarely happened before. In the countless years of the past and present, there were definitely no more than seven people who achieved this.

Hence, he was very confident that Lin Jiufeng wouldn’t kill him.

No one was willing to bear the power of the curse because it would lower their ability to comprehend the Dao, the power of destiny, their cultivation states, and make them more probable to encounter dangerous enemies.

But Lin Jiufeng wasn’t afraid of any of these.

“I’m born powerful. I’m the ruler of the mortal realm, the nightmare of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age. I will break the shackles of this world. I will rebuild the glorious world of the ancient eras. To me, a mere curse is just another hurdle on the path of cultivation. Moreover, I’m invulnerable to all techniques and am eternal-lasting. Nothing in the world can stop my advancement. The power of the curse is just useless against me.” Lin Jiufeng was very confident and conceited. He waved his longsword and directly cut off the head of this Immortal Emperor who was imprisoned in the air and emitting curses.

The three Immortal Emperor assassins who invaded the mortal realm from the Seven Races of the Ancient Age all died.

The blood rain in the sky intensified. There was no smell of blood in the mortal realm. Instead, there was a refreshing fragrance. It was as if the mortal realm had been trapped in a fog for too long, and it was time to wash it up.

The washing this time was done with the blood of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age. It could be considered an explanation to the common people and countless powerhouses who had sacrificed themselves in the past few eras.

After killing the three Immortal Emperors, Lin Jiufeng also disappeared into the sky.

The entire mortal realm was cheering for him. Countless people were so excited that they felt like tearing off their clothes and running tens of kilometers to vent their excitement.

The mortal realm was once again protected by Great Emperor Jiufeng.

Although the people of the new generation had heard of Great Emperor Jiufeng’s might from the older generation, they didn’t have a direct feeling of his strength. At this moment, they saw with their own eyes Great Emperor Jiufeng’s might, instantly making the new generation become his loyal supporters.

But Lin Jiufeng didn’t need these.

After solving the invasion of the Immortal Emperors of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age, he disappeared into the sky and came to the side of a huge lake, thinking quietly.

As the huge lake approached, the waves were sparkling. On the surface of the water, there was a reflection of the sky that spread out. In the area near the forest, the fog was misty. On a closer look, the lake had a radius of thousands of miles. This place wasn’t far from the battlefield just now, so no living creature dared to barge in.

In the distance, the forest was dense. The ancient trees were green and full of life. There were broken cliff walls and a 10,000-meter waterfall. It smashed down with a rumbling sound, causing countless water droplets to splash.

Arriving at the stone wall of the broken cliff, Lin Jiufeng saw spirit medicines growing one after another. Hundred-year-old, thousand-year-old, and even a few ten-thousand-year-old spirit medicines grew quietly here, emitting strands of medicinal fragrance.

After the battle, Lin Jiufeng sat here and watched the lake quietly, thinking about what would happen next.

“I killed these three Immortal Emperors this time! Now, the Seven Races of the Ancient Race will definitely know that there is a power in the mortal realm that can kill Immortal Emperors. I’m unable to hide my existence anymore.”

“The trouble in the mortal realm hasn’t been resolved yet. The people of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age will also continue to attack the mortal realm. It’s just that they suffered a huge loss these two times.”

“But the foundation of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age is far from what the mortal realm can compare to. Ignoring the problem of those once-invincible powerhouses falling into a deep sleep and not waking up, just based on the fact that in the past 20,000 years, the strength that they have accumulated is far more than this. What I saw was just the tip of the iceberg. I didn’t see any more core secrets of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age, but I can guess that the Seven Races of the Ancient Age have an absolutely crushing attitude towards the mortal realm.”

Countless thoughts ran through Lin Jiufeng’s mind.

At this moment, he could be considered to be invincible in the mortal realm. But facing this behemoth, the Seven Races of the Ancient Age, his heart was still very anxious.

The true powerhouses of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age were currently in the Wasteland. If they killed the people in the Wasteland, there would be no way to turn the situation around in the mortal realm.

“I need to unite the forces of the mortal realm. I need to organize an effective counterattack. I need to nurture more geniuses. I need to start a protracted tug of war with the Seven Races of the Ancient Age,” Lin Jiufeng said softly.

This was his truest thought.

He was indeed very powerful. He could now fight against Immortal Emperors with the strength of a ninth heaven Immortal King. As long as the opponent wasn’t a terrifying powerhouse among the Immortal Emperors, they weren’t considered terrifying to Lin Jiufeng.

Hence, the birth of Lin Jiufeng was a great blessing to the mortal realm.

But the sorrow of the mortal realm was that Lin Jiufeng was the only one who could keep up with the pace of the recovery of spiritual energy and breakthrough in time. He was the only one who could seize the initiative in everything.

It was fortunate that the mortal had Lin Jiufeng. Unfortunately, there was only one Lin Jiufeng in the mortal realm!

Lin Jiufeng, who was sitting by the lake, had a strong body. His black hair scattered down, his eyes were deep, and his aura was extraordinary. He was elegant like an immortal. He stood up, and his slender body seemed to contain a power that could refine the entire universe.

In the very next moment, Lin Jiufeng entered the lake and washed his body with water.

He hadn’t bathed for a long time.

Although there wasn’t a need to shower with his cultivation base, the feeling of cleaning his body with spiritual energy was completely different from cleaning his body with cold water.

Moreover, along the way, from the beginning of the war in the imperial capital to the Death Realm, to the Spell Realm, and then to the mortal realm, Lin Jiufeng never slacked off at all. His mental spirit was very tense. Along the way, the battles never stopped. He was actually very tired, but he couldn’t find anyone to talk to.

At this moment, Lin Jiufeng washed away his exhaustion in the lake water and also washed away the curse of that Immortal Emperor. To Lin Jiufeng, he was really invulnerable to all spells and techniques.

After taking a shower, Lin Jiufeng stepped out of the water. Under the starlight, his body was radiant. His temperament was serene, peaceful, carefree, and aloof.

“It’s time to unite the power of the entire mortal realm.” Lin Jiufeng looked into the distance. He didn’t stay any longer and left with large strides. Every step he took covered thousands of miles of land that shrank beneath his feet.

The first people Lin Jiufeng found were the four Immortal Emperors of the mortal realm.

These four Immortal Emperors could be considered friends with Lin Jiufeng.

They were able to come to the mortal realm completely because Lin Jiufeng defeated the crocodile ancestor who was guarding the Well of Heaven Ascension. Only then did they have a chance to enter the mortal realm through the Well of Heaven Ascension.

The City Lord of the Giant City, the City Lord of the Beast King City, the City Lord of Asura City, and the City Lord of the Hundred Battles City.

The four of them were once the rulers of the Death Realm and enjoyed supreme power, but they didn’t fancy that little place in the Death Realm. They still yearned to enter the mortal realm.

Now, they had already completed their former dream. After entering the mortal realm, their flesh and blood were reborn. The former crystal skeleton had become the current Immortal Emperor. Although they had only entered the initial stage of the Immortal Emperor Realm, they were already much stronger than the Immortal Kings.

The first person Lin Jiufeng saw was the City Lord of the Hundred Battles City.

The former crystal skeleton had become the current elegant middle-aged man.

Upon seeing Lin Jiufeng, this City Lord of the Hundred Battles City was actually a little excited. He said, “Immortal King Lin, I didn’t expect that you would change so much after we parted in the Death Realm. It’s all thanks to you that the mortal realm can be preserved this time.”

“Relying on me alone won’t do, so are you willing to join me?” Lin Jiufeng asked.

The elegant middle-aged man said with a serious expression, “If I didn’t want to protect this mortal realm, I wouldn’t be so persistent in returning here.”

“Although 20,000 years have passed and everything in my memory, the people and things that I know have been diluted by time, the mortal realm is still the same mortal realm. My hometown is still my hometown. Although I’m not very powerful, as long my strength can cause a little influence, I will definitely not stand aside and watch,” the former City Lord of the Hundred Battles City said firmly at this moment.
