Chapter 1297 - Chapter 1297 Chapter 538 Initial Fusion of Three Forces Yue

Chapter 1297: Chapter 538: Initial Fusion of Three Forces, Yue Guang’s Strike_2 Chapter 1297: Chapter 538: Initial Fusion of Three Forces, Yue Guang’s Strike_2 Now it was not Han Yi fighting against him, but the Ancient God Weapon striking at him.

However, how could that be possible?

How could a Profound Immortal possibly awaken an Ancient God Weapon?

Even if a Profound Immortal was completely drained of power, it would absolutely be impossible.

But the reality was before his eyes, the awakened Ancient God Weapon was already plummeting towards him.

Thinking of this, the Black Realm Star Lord no longer dared to be careless, he took out a transparent bead, and threw it forward. The bead disappeared from sight, and soon after, a dense fog emerged out of the void. The fog spread extremely quickly, and in less than a fraction of a moment, it spread to in front of Han Yi.

But at this moment, the Yue Guang Divine Spear was already smashing down ferociously, and the dense fog exploded abruptly.

The void trembled, and a cracking sound echoed.

A shout of alarm followed immediately.

“Damn it, my Mirage Dragon Mysterious Pearl.”

“How can it be so strong.”

“Hmph, boy, you wait to die.”

The exploded fog rapidly contracted and turned back into a transparent bead. However, the surface of the bead now had three cracks, with the largest one nearly splitting the bead in half.

The bead was clutched in the hand of the Black-Robed Star Lord as he turned to flee into the void. In less than an instant, his figure disappeared without a trace, and he deliberately erased all signs of his presence.

“Escaped?”

“Hmph!”

A deep and cold snort came from the void.

A Taoist walked forward.

After a glance around the scene, the Taoist flicked out a few strands of Immortal Power that pierced through the three Tian Gang Golden Immortals who neither got caught in the aftermath of Han Yi’s spear nor fled far away, grinding them into nothingness.

Then.

His gaze swept over to the Taoist Jin Ming, who was standing at a distance, with a face full of shock, then returned his gaze to the battered and pitiable Han Yi, where a trace of astonishment also emerged on his solemn face.

“Taizhen Ancient God?”

“This is indeed rare, the Immortal Realm has not seen a Taizhen Ancient God in many tens of thousands of years.”

“And to even have an Ancient God Weapon, this is truly a tremendous stroke of fate.”

“Worthy of being the top of the Xuan List, his strength is so impressive that even I find it astonishing.”

…

Elsewhere.

Sitting cross-legged in the void and reduced to a normal human because his Divine Power was insufficient, Han Yi suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his complexion pale, yet at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.

He had been saved.

That last strike had drained all the Divine Force from his body, and 90% of the Divine Power Crystals in his Divine Aperture World had been extracted, bringing him close to his limit. He was not going to be able to wield the Yue Guang Divine Spear a second time.

He was about to seek help from the Taiyuan Divine Blade in the Immortal Spirit Realm.

Unexpectedly, the tables had turned, and the Black Realm Star Lord, after being smashed by the Ancient God Weapon, even with his Mirage Dragon Mysterious Pearl damaged, had turned to flee.

Before he could even express his confusion, a second Immortal Monarch appeared before him.

Upon recognizing this Immortal Monarch, Han Yi finally relaxed.

This Immortal Monarch was not very famous and was nowhere near being ranked among the top ten Immortal Monarchs of the Age Candle, being just an ordinary Immortal Monarch, but his methods were not lacking. He was the Immortal Monarch stationed in the Immortal Castle Cluster in the Extreme North Void by the Age Candle Immortal Court.

His Tao Title was Dongming.

And Han Yi realized that the Black Realm Star Lord’s escape was not because the Mirage Dragon Mysterious Pearl had been destroyed by him, nor because of the Ancient God Weapon. It was because of the appearance of Immortal Monarch Dongming. If he had not fled then, escape would have become much more difficult.

With a thought, he channelled the few remaining Divine Power Crystals in his Divine Aperture World to retract the Yue Guang Divine Spear lying in the void into his Divine Aperture World.

This forced drawing of the Divine Power Crystals agitated his injuries, causing his complexion to become even paler and more blood to ooze from the corners of his mouth, but Han Yi did not care.

In the presence of an Immortal Monarch, putting away the Yue Guang Ancient God Weapon was Han Yi’s way of showing that the divine spear belonged to him. Even the Immortal Monarch could not take it away. If the Immortal Monarch tried to take it by force, it would mean making an enemy of him.

Immortal Monarch Dongming gave Han Yi a deep look, then turned and walked away, a voice trailing behind him.

“Han Yi, you owe me a favor.”

Han Yi, sitting in the void, struggled to his feet, and bowed in the direction of Immortal Monarch Dongming’s departure, saying, “Immortal Monarch Dongming, your timely rescue is deeply appreciated. Han Yi acknowledges this favor and will surely repay the Immortal Monarch in the future.”

The favor of an Immortal Monarch is not so easy to repay, nor is it something one would readily want to repay, but since the other party had indeed made a move and scared off the Black Realm Star Lord, owing him a favor was inevitable.

Moreover, Han Yi was not worried about the difficulty in returning the favor. Owing a favor also meant that there was now a connection between them. Should Han Yi encounter any problems in the future, he could also seek assistance from this Immortal Monarch.

One day, when he ascends to the Realm of Immortal Monarch, perhaps, the favor of Immortal Monarch Dongming will not be a big deal, easily repaid.

Han Yi fell back to sitting and couldn’t help but spit out another mouthful of blood.

He turned to look behind him, at Jin Ming Taoist standing in the Void, and said weakly,

“Brother Dao, give me a hand.”

In the distance.

Ever since the Black Realm Star Lord appeared and the three Tian Gang Killers trapped Jin Ming Taoist, he had been stunned by the rapidly changing situation that followed.

The three Tian Gang Killers dragging him, upon hearing the voice of the Black Realm Star Lord, withdrew a great distance like the other four Tian Gang Killers to serve as backup.

Although Jin Ming Taoist was freed from the trap, his face changed drastically, for he knew that a move from the Black Realm Star Lord was far beyond his power to resist, and beyond Han Yi’s as well.

Despite his multiple retreats, he had not found the path to becoming an Immortal Monarch and was without a single clue, increasingly aware, that though only a threshold separates Golden Immortal from Immortal Monarch, their difference is unimaginably vast.

An Immortal Monarch is already a high-ranking member of the Immortal Court, able to establish his own dojo and endure for countless tens of thousands of years, entirely different from a Golden Immortal.

His face changed drastically, resolved to stake his life on one final endeavor, but before he could rush out, Han Yi had already begun to transform.

Jin Ming Golden Immortal knew that Han Yi had the cultivation of a Primordial Realm Ancient God, something that for the major powers in the Immortal Realm was not difficult to enquire about.

Yet Han Yi’s displayed true form, a terrifying entity, far exceeded what Jin Ming Taoist knew of the Primordial Realm Ancient Gods, reaching the next level, for which he, with his cultivation level and authority, had too little information–knowing only a name, and nothing more.

Taizhen.

Taizhen Ancient God.

But although powerful, an Ancient God Taizhen could never match an Immortal Monarch.

Just as this thought emerged, Han Yi had already drawn an Ancient God Weapon emitting a terrifying aura.

This made Jin Ming Taoist rethink his previous notion.

He had seen Ancient God Weapons before, but they were all damaged, far inferior to the golden giant spear in Han Yi’s hand.

Then, in the next brief moment, he was so shocked that he began to doubt his own existence.

With a single strike of his spear, Han Yi nearly shattered the Xuanzhu Immortal Artifact of the Black Realm Star Lord, forcing the Star Lord to retreat.

That Xuanzhu was definitely a Seventh Order Immortal Artifact.

And Han Yi had managed to damage a Seventh Order Immortal Artifact and force back an Immortal Monarch, a scene unfolding right before his eyes.

A Profound Immortal shaking an Immortal Monarch.

Who would believe such a story if it were told?

But having witnessed it with his own eyes, Jin Ming Golden Immortal couldn’t deny the truth of it.

Then, before he could recover from the shock of this scene, Immortal Monarch Dongming appeared, frightening away the Black Realm Star Lord and flinging out strands of Immortal Power, crushing the slowest fleeing Tian Gang Golden Immortals.

He simply left behind a single sentence before turning to leave.

It was only after hearing Han Yi’s weak words that Jin Ming Taoist came to his senses, immediately moving forward, hastily took out an Immortal Pill, and administered it to Han Yi.

Han Yi was not without his own Immortal Pills; he had previously spent a large sum of Immortal Marks to purchase a great number of Immortal Pills, Immortal Talismans, and a one-time use Sixth Order Immortal Artifact.

But against an Immortal Monarch, Sixth Order Immortal Talismans and a one-time use Sixth Order Immortal Artifact were completely useless; he didn’t even bother to take them out.

And with the near exhaustion of his Immortal Power, Divine Force, and even demonic power, even opening his Immortal Spirit Realm and unleashing the Universe Immortal Tribulation was problematic.

Of course.

Desperate measures were still possible, but they would cause even greater damage to his body.

This injury could be described as severe; it would be hard to fully recover without decades or even hundreds of years.

Han Yi had this realization.

But to have survived an encounter with an Immortal Monarch was already an enormous stroke of luck, something no Immortal would believe if it were spoken of.

After taking the Immortal Pill, Jin Ming Taoist gathered Han Yi into the Immortal Spirit Realm and then hastened toward the Immortal Realm.

A few Tian Gang Killers had fled to the Black Realm, and with a Black Realm Star Lord still at large, they would only be truly safe once they reached the Age Candle Immortal Court.

Speaking of which.

This Immortal Fight, for Jin Ming Golden Immortal, couldn’t even be said to have caused him injury; he was merely trapped in an Immortal Array and, once he emerged, would be teleported back.

Once the Immortal Array dissipated, he witnessed a staggering series of shocking scenes.

As he traveled, a fact emerged which he found hard to believe yet was irrefutable.

Han Yi was stronger than him.

This…
