Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

The moment Qin Wentian acted, he vanquished several demon kings. That, in addition to his arrogant words, instantly caused the anger of several greater demons to stir as terrifying auras bore down on him with demonic qi permeating the atmosphere.

“You want to take all the demons from the Desolate Mountains as your enemy?” A supreme expert among the void beasts coldly spoke.

“Putting such a large hat on my head? All the demon races from the desolate mountains?” Qin Wentian laughed loudly, staring at his opponent. He then continued, “You demons surrounded the humans of my immortal realms, and in addition to what happened back in Gazing Emperor City, the demons from the desolate mountains have never placed us humans from the immortal realms in their eyes before. From your past actions when you lot invaded our world, are you guys not taking the humans of the immortal realms as your enemy?”

The demons all fell silent. That expert from the phoeroc race continued floating in the air, his lofty eyes staring fixedly at Qin Wentian. Not only him, the void beasts, the Heavenhold Race, and many other demons were staring at Qin Wentian with killing intent in their eyes.

It was just that the Saber-Sword Immortal King was too famous and that, coupled with the fact that he instantly killed several greater demons when he appeared, everyone was still shocked. Even for the violent demonic races, nobody dared to act recklessly.

Someone turned his gaze to that dazzling supreme greater demon sitting in the gold sun chariot. Bright light illuminated the area around him and he was also one of those characters who stood at the absolute peak in the City of Ancient Emperors. His strength was undoubtable, his combat prowess powerful enough to rival the heavens. A supreme character had appeared from humanity. In this place, only he and the nine-tailed fox maiden would be powerful enough to stand equal to this Saber-Sword Immortal King. However, the personality of the fox maiden was too cold, the probability of her entering combat wasn’t as high as the supreme greater demon from the gold sun race.

As for experts from the phoeroc race, they glanced towards an extremely powerful demon from their race. Although his fame wasn’t equal to the strongest phoeroc who was also in the City of Ancient Emperors, all the phoerocs knew how terrifying his strength was.

This powerful phoeroc narrowed his eyes, after that, he turned to Qin Wentian and loftiness could be seen brimming within his gaze.

“What do you guys think?” He didn’t act directly, but turned to the greater demons in the surroundings instead. In response, many of the greater demons unleashed their auras and killing intent, clearly wanting to kill this extremely arrogant Saber-Sword Immortal King.

“He insulted us demons from the desolate mountains and massacred our experts. He has to be killed.” A demon roared.

“Insulting demons, and you guys want to kill this seat? Fine, let’s see who dares to do it.” Qin Wentian swept his gaze at the demons in the surroundings. With this sentence, the entire space fell silent. Although demonic qi still permeated the atmosphere, he was still as confident as ever, almost to the point where one could say that he was brazen to the extreme.

The space fell to silence once again. However, the amount of demonic qi in the air didn’t lessen. The demons were exchanging mutual glances, as though planning for something.

“Bzz~” The wind gusted by as a void beast attacked. He shot through space and clawed out at Qin Wentian, instantly unleashing a powerful wave of spatial energy, wanting to kill his target. In an instant, the spatial energy transformed into a spatial prison that trapped Qin Wentian within. A moment later, many other greater demons started to move. Among them, there were several void beasts. The spatial energy radiating from them all converged together, strengthening the spatial prison holding Qin Wentian.

After that, the greater demons from the Heavenhold Race started to attack. They stomped the ground and transformed into gigantic versions of themselves, blasting out fist imprints that contained boundless might. There was also an expert from the phoeroc race who attacked. Spreading his wings wide, he arced through the air, moving towards Qin Wentian.

“Do you demons from the desolate mountains even know shame?!” Jun Mengchen roared. The world force around him radiated forth, showcasing his power.

“ROAR!” Little Rascal howled in anger, his golden eyes flickering with a terrifying coldness as a fearsome devouring vortex began to swallow the spatial energy inside the prison.

However, Qin Wentian was as calm as ever. He swept his gaze over, only to see many greater demons rushing at him unceasingly. Although his body was trapped by the prison, an arrogant calmness was clearly seen on his face.

With a sweep of his gaze, those demons rushing towards Qin Wentian felt the skies changing in an instant. This space they were in was different from the one they were at moments ago. They were all rushing towards Qin Wentian, but Qin Wentian simply stood there quietly, looking back at them. He seemed so near, but also seemed so far away.

“Illusionary space?” Many of the greater demons exchanged glances. How can this be, they were brought inside a world of illusions? Was this a law domain comprehended by the Saber-Sword Immortal King? It was rumored that back then when he slew the Yama King within nine breaths of time, illusionary arts were involved. Was this how the Yama King died back then?

Upon thinking of this, their hearts started pounding even more furiously. Fear began to appear in their hearts. After all, the Saber-Sword Immortal King was too famous, and this illusory space was extremely mysterious and profound.

“Bzz~” A void beast shuttled through space, arriving before Qin Wentian. His sharp claws extended outwards, wanting to tear Qin Wentian into pieces but he soon discovered that Qin Wentian’s figure completely vanished. They were still in the illusory world, unable to break out from it.

The body of an expert from the phoeroc race blazed with fire. He pointed his finger to the center of his forehead as his eyes gleamed with light. His consciousness returned to the external world, able to observe reality. But to his immense shock, he discovered that it was as though his consciousness was divided into two. One part of him was in reality, the other part was still inside the illusory world.

“This is a dreamscape, he wants me to sink into a dream he created.” Pacing to and fro at the boundary of reality and illusion. Fear rose in his heart when he actually discovered that he had no way to completely struggle free.

Inside the illusory space that was a dreamscape, many demons were already suffering from attacks. Countless Qin Wentians appeared in that space, staring calmly at them.

“What space is this?” A greater demon roared in rage.

“A space to bury all of you in.” Qin Wentian calmly replied. In an instant, the myriad law energies gushed forth, engulfing this entire space. How cold these people withstand Qin Wentian’s attack? All of them died within the space with no exceptions.

Hence, a shocking scene appeared in the external world. Those demonic beasts that rushed towards Qin Wentian all actually started to die as they approached him, even before reaching him. They simply roared, rushed forward, and dropped off dead.

“Saber-Sword Immortal King.” The crowd stared at the dying demons. The remaining demons turned sullen as the atmosphere fell silent.

Strong. Was this the strength of the Saber-Sword Immortal King? His illusionary arts have already reached such a transcendent state. There seemed to be no way to counter or break free from it by force. As long as Qin Wentian stood there, he was able to drag others within the illusory space he created and kill them cleanly.

The spatial prison around Qin Wentian vanished. He calmly stood there and coldly spoke, “Anyone else want to kill this seat?”

“There’s no way to kill him.” The spectators silently mused. Wanting to kill a character standing at the peak of the City of Ancient Emperors, numbers were useless in this case. Because, none of them would be able to withstand even a single one of their attacks.

The experts from that demon race, glanced up at the demonic figure from the golden sun race in the air that was more dazzling than the sun. Although there were many demons here, he was the only one that had the possibility of being able to deal with the Saber-Sword Immortal King.

“You should make your move.” A demonic beast spoke.

“In this place, you are the only one that can kill him.”

“Humans have insulted us demons from the desolate regions. We have to uphold our honor.”

From all directions, the greater demons stared at the figure sitting in the golden sun chariot, as though treating him as their hope.

The Saber-Sword Immortal King was too powerful, they couldn’t kill him. In fact, they weren’t even able to get near him. In addition, he had once used his prowess in the illusionary arts to kill the Yama King in nine breaths. Even these violent demonic beasts understood that it was impossible for them to kill him with their strength. If they stubbornly continued, they would only be courting death.

“Saber-Sword Immortal King.” At this moment, the supreme greater demon in the chariot finally spoke. The moment he opened his mouth, all the demons here were extremely excited, all of them hoping he would act and kill the Saber-Sword Immortal King.

Qin Wentian inclined his head and stared at the greater demon. This was a demonic beast of the gold sun race, that was rumored to be a super-variation race with the bloodlines of the sun crows and the golden demon race. They have the advantages of both bloodlines, regardless of attack or defense, they were both extremely strong and could even compare to the phoeroc race in terms of speed.

In Qin Wentian’s eyes, a towering battle intent could be seen. This character was a supreme greater demon, he wondered how this person would compare to the Yama King.

“Let the battle today end here.” Just when everyone thought another world-shaking grand battle would occur, the figure in the sun chariot suddenly said this. He then continued, “The demons from the desolate mountains have finally walked out from there after so long, it’s naturally impossible for us to retreat back there. In the future, the immortal realms shall be shared between humans and demons. This isn’t something a single battle here would be able to resolve it. Whether humans or demons are in the right, it’s useless to argue any further. Strength is the only path forward, only the strongest will have the authority to decide things.”

Qin Wentian quietly listened. He naturally understood that this was the truth. If the demons are stronger, humans would end up as slaves. If humans are stronger, demons would end up as slaves. This was the stark reality, the cruel truth of the world.

“We have yet to stand at the peak of the immortal realms, we can’t even decide the grand situation. But even so, right now in the City of Ancient Emperors, there are already quite a number of immortal kings that are qualified to stand at the absolute peak. I really want to see who is strong, and who is weak.” The supreme greater demon continued.

As the sound of his voice rang out, all the spectators were stunned. Could it be he wanted all the combatants to cease-fire as he fought one-on-one against Qin Wentian?

“I’ll gather all the experts at the absolute peak, regardless of those from the demonic races or those from humanity. We will fight against each other to see who is the true king of the City of Ancient Emperors.” The eyes of this supreme expert from the gold sun race were as bright as the sun, he stared at Qin Wentian and continued, “Saber-Sword Immortal King, when the time comes, please show up. This invitation is extended to the fox goddess and Jiang Zihua as well.”

The hearts of all the spectators trembled. Arranging a battle for the characters in the city of ancient emperors that stood at the absolute peak?

The beautiful eyes of the nine-tailed fox maiden shone with a bright light. But in truth, she also wanted to know who currently, was the strongest among them in the City of Ancient Emperors.

Jiang Zihua laughed, he glanced at the supreme greater demon on the chariot, “Sure. You should set the time and location.”

“We will forget everything that happened today. Not long after, I shall spread the information around the City of Ancient Emperors. Just wait for news.” That supreme greater demon spoke. As his voice rang out, sunlight flared and illuminated the surroundings. The war chariot let out a rumble and directly sped away.

When the other experts from the Sun Gold Race saw this scene, they too, departed respectively.
