Chapter 763: Zhong Shan vs. the Celestial Immortal

Although these individuals were weak compared to the vast might of the dynasties, the myriad secret techniques of the Grand Thousand World could hold unexpected dangers. It was time to slaughter.

However, Zhong Shan also knew that those who managed to escape Jian Ao's sword were not easy opponents.

The escaping strong cultivators glanced in horror at Jian Ao in the sky. Jian Ao was a monster. But as they looked back at the ground, an intense joy spread across their faces. They had made it down. Having escaped the monstrous celestial, what else was there to fear? The Small Thousand World was theirs to dominate.

"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"

A muffled sound echoed nearby, and everyone turned to see a lingering shadow. It was a man in a loose robe, smashing the head of a Grand Thousand World invader. The head exploded like a smashed watermelon. A strong cultivator who had just escaped Jian Ao was so easily killed?

The Grand Thousand World invaders didn't have time to react, but Li Si wouldn't wait. His body flashed with terrifying speed, and in an instant, he was upon the next strong cultivator.

"Slash!"

A single hand chop, and the person was split in two.

It was terrifying.

"A Xuanxian? He killed a Xuanxian with one blow?" someone exclaimed in horror.

The person who had exclaimed in fear suddenly realized that his shout had drawn Li Si's gaze. Li Si's eyes locked onto him.

"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"

On the other side, Zhong Shan's great sword also struck out with a thunderous roar.

Heavenly Slash! Thousand Waves!

Space shattered as an unparalleled strong cultivator fell under Zhong Shan's blade.

"He killed a Renxian?" another person shouted in terror.

Zhong Shan's killing speed was incredibly fast. In an instant, his sword slashed towards another target.

Zhong Shan and Li Si's decisive slaughter left the Grand Thousand World invaders trembling with fear.

Damn it, what kind of Small Thousand World was this? Were its people all this monstrous?

"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"

In the high sky, Jian Ao finally reached the entrance of the ascension channel, leaping into the Grand Thousand World.

The moment Jian Ao entered the Grand Thousand World, the ascension channel abruptly closed.

About fifty Grand Thousand World invaders were left.

A few figures darted in all directions the moment they entered the Small Thousand World. However, the others did not flee; instead, they surrounded Zhong Shan and Li Si, seemingly intent on showing these "barbarians" their true strength.

"Damn, the most cunning ones escaped!" Li Si frowned.

"Escaped?" Zhong Shan asked while engaging in battle with the strong cultivators, glancing towards Li Si.

Li Si had hidden his true capabilities well. Zhong Shan only noticed those figures leaving, but Li Si discerned their peculiarities.

"Forget it. If they escaped, so be it. But these remaining ones? Not a single one should get away!" Li Si declared.

"Understood!" Zhong Shan nodded.

"Emperor Zhong Shan, there are five Celestial Immortals among them. You handle two, and I'll take care of the rest!" Li Si said.

"Celestial Immortals?"

"Don't worry. These Celestial Immortals aren't that formidable, much like Sima Ce from the past. If you can't defeat them, just hold them off until I finish the others and come to assist you!" Li Si said sternly.

"Hahaha, not formidable? The mortals of this Small Thousand World are truly arrogant!" someone laughed loudly from above.

"Emperor Zhong Shan? An emperor of a dynasty? Hahaha, how amusing this Small Thousand World is!"

A group of strong cultivators surrounded Zhong Shan and Li Si. They seemed to have forgotten the massacre moments ago, emboldened after escaping Jian Ao's sword. Having faced such a monstrous celestial, what did they have to fear now? The Small Thousand World was theirs for the taking.

"Emperor Zhong Shan, see those two bare-chested men? Just hold them off; I'll take care of the others!" Li Si shouted.

Indeed, in the sky, two figures stood together, both burly and shirtless. One was golden-skinned, bald, and muscular, resembling a golden tumor. The other had fairer skin, a rugged beard, and a body covered in chest hair, looking extremely wild with a large axe on his shoulder.

The two were very noticeable, rugged, and barbaric. Their gazes towards Zhong Shan were filled with contempt.

"Tianji Realm Third Level? With that level of cultivation?" the bearded man sneered.

Many others noticed Zhong Shan's cultivation level too. Tianji Realm Third Level? How could he hope to hold off Celestial Immortals? Even though the Celestial Immortals' power was suppressed to the Tianji Realm Twelfth Level in the Small Thousand World, expecting someone at the Third Level to hold them off seemed ludicrous.

The Renxian Zhong Shan had killed earlier must have been severely injured for Zhong Shan to have succeeded.

After all, all fifty strong cultivators had been somewhat injured by Jian Ao.

Zhong Shan locked his gaze on the two and said to Li Si, "Prime Minister Li, don't worry. I'll handle these two; the rest are yours!"

"Good!" Li Si's lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile.

Zhong Shan stamped his foot and soared into the sky.

The other strong cultivators didn't interfere, as if the two burly men had enough status that no one else dared intrude on their fight.

Zhong Shan's great sword aimed at the heavens.

Seeing Zhong Shan's "ninth-grade treasure" sword, the two burly men sneered. Did he think such a mortal weapon could harm them? How presumptuous!

Heavenly Slash, Thousand Waves!

Zhong Shan slashed down fiercely, targeting the golden-skinned man.

As the sword descended, the void shattered, creating a massive black hole around Zhong Shan. The two strong cultivators were momentarily taken aback, sensing something unusual.

However, the golden-skinned man showed no fear and stood his ground, allowing Zhong Shan's sword to strike him.

"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"

Golden light radiated from the man's body as the sword collided with his head, producing a shower of sparks. Zhong Shan's strike had no effect; the man's body alone had blocked it.

"Is that all you've got?" the golden-skinned man mocked, his voice filled with scorn.

Zhong Shan's eyes narrowed. These Celestial Immortals were indeed formidable, even if suppressed. But he had a plan. He wasn't here to merely test his strength but to ensure none of them left alive.

He gripped his sword tighter, ready for the next move, while keeping an eye on the bearded man with the axe, who was already charging at him.

The battle was far from over, and Zhong Shan was determined to turn the tide.

"Damn it, is that really a mortal's strike? It stings!" The golden-skinned burly man quickly touched his head, noticing a sudden bump that had formed.

"Ha~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"

The surroundings suddenly changed as the golden-skinned man unfolded his "world." The sky turned crimson, and countless volcanoes erupted below—a volcanic world.

"Great swordsmanship! That bald-headed guy's strength lies entirely in his physical body. Even here in the Small Thousand World, his power is hardly diminished, yet you managed to hurt him?" the bearded burly man praised.

"I am the Emperor of Great Zheng. Would you consider joining my Great Zheng Empire?" Zhong Shan called out from the sky.

"Great Zheng Empire? An empire? Hahaha, we are here to assist our young master Kong Lietian. An empire? Do you think such a small empire can recruit us?" the bearded man laughed.

"All of you are here to assist Kong Lietian?" Zhong Shan's eyes narrowed.

"This ascension channel's exit is near our camp. Those who scattered upon entering the Small Thousand World are not with us. The fifty here, half of them are. Do you know our young master?" the bearded man asked.

A cold gleam flashed in Zhong Shan's eyes. "If that's the case, then you will all die together!"

As he spoke, the Baji Heaven Tail suddenly appeared beneath Zhong Shan, growing larger until it reached a hundred zhang in size. The red and black tails were particularly vibrant, exuding a violent aura.

The Baji Heaven Tail charged at the golden-skinned burly man, while Zhong Shan's sword aimed at the bearded man.

Heavenly Slash, Thousand Waves!

The massive strike was aimed straight at the bearded man.

The bearded man, realizing Zhong Shan might have a grudge against Kong Lietian, swung his giant axe down with a thunderous roar.

"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"

The bearded man's axe deflected the power of Zhong Shan's sword.

"Tianji Realm Third Level, with such power, is truly rare! But you've offended our young master, so you must die!" the bearded man growled.

Heavenly Slash! Thousand and One Waves!

Zhong Shan's sword's power surged as he struck again, his violent aura bearing down on the bearded man.

"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"

The bearded man blocked Zhong Shan's sword once more, looking at Zhong Shan in shock.

"Your cultivation is increasing. How is that possible? How can your cultivation increase?" the bearded man exclaimed in disbelief.

Heavenly Slash! Thousand and Two Waves!

Zhong Shan's strikes became more powerful and fluid. The energy from the Absolute Immortal Sword, consumed by the Baji Heaven Tail, was now being transferred to Zhong Shan, increasing his cultivation rapidly.

"Tianji Realm Fourth Level? Impossible! How can your cultivation suddenly rise to the Tianji Realm Fourth Level?" the bearded man shouted.

The golden-skinned man, on the other hand, was too preoccupied to notice Zhong Shan. The Baji Heaven Tail, with one tail emitting the aura of the Immortal Execution Sword and the other the aura of the Absolute Immortal Sword, exuded overwhelming power, striking fear into the golden-skinned man.

"Tianji Realm Fifth Level? Do you have a technique for concealing your cultivation?" the bearded man finally found a plausible explanation.

However, reaching the Tianji Realm Fifth Level was already his limit. From the peak of the Third Level to the beginning of the Fifth Level, Zhong Shan had ascended two levels. This was enough for him.

With his powerful sword, Zhong Shan struck the bearded man again.

Heavenly Slash, Thousand and Four Waves!

"Even if you concealed your cultivation, you're only at the Tianji Realm Fifth Level. You cannot defeat my 'Giant Spirit Axe'." The bearded man swung his giant axe.
