Entry: I Secretly Cultivate Immortality in the Martial Arts World

273: Chapter 273 You have committed three crimes, which are unforgivable. You shall be executed today!Just as the stalemate reached its peak, a streak of black and white light flew in from the horizon.

The light was incredibly fast, moving from far to near, reaching the edge of the battlefield in the blink of an eye.

The light dissipated, revealing a person and a dragon.

The dragon was black and white all over, tens of thousands of zhang long, with dual wings on its back and scales interlaced like a Taiji diagram.

A Golden Immortal cultivation level was not considered high on this battlefield where Immortal Emperors gathered, but as a mount, it was already extremely prestigious.

A person sat cross-legged on the dragon’s back.

This person had purple hair tied up with a golden crown, with a single strand hanging down from each temple.

A pair of dragon horns grew from his head; his expression was cold and stern, his eyes like lightning, and the Aura around him was as deep as an abyss.

The chaos set had transformed into a mysterious black imperial robe embroidered with the sun, moon, stars, mountains, and rivers. The patterns were complex but not cluttered, instead exuding a charm of the Great Dao being simple at its core.

As soon as he appeared, the gazes of all the Immortal Emperors present were drawn to him.

For no other reason than the fact that the breath this person emitted was actually at the Immortal Emperor level!

Furthermore, his depth could not be seen, and his Aura was not weaker than anyone present.

When did the Immortal Realm gain another Immortal Emperor?

Emperor Cang frowned, sizing up the newcomer; he was completely unfamiliar, someone he had never seen before.

Emperor Haotian’s eyes swept over him with a heavy gaze, his eyes full of surprise, also having no impression of him.

Daoist Lord Jiuyin had lived through eternal ages, his Lifespan a long river; he had met all the Immortal Emperors of the Immortal Realm, even if they weren’t close friends.

But the person before him had an ethereal and traceless Aura, and his face was extremely unfamiliar, completely outside of his knowledge.

The Thunder Emperor directly asked the question on everyone’s mind: ”Fellow Daoist, who are you?”

Countless gazes locked onto that figure in unison, waiting for an answer.

But Long Da was indifferent and aloof, completely ignoring everyone’s questioning.

His gaze fell upon that Three-Legged Golden Crow.

Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu, the Demon Emperor, also noticed this suddenly appearing stranger.

At this moment, tribulation qi had invaded his body and his hostility was surging; his mind had long been muddled and chaotic, and he only took the newcomer for another busybody trying to interfere.

The bird’s head suddenly reared up, hostility piercing the sky, as he shouted harshly, ”Where did you come from, you nameless nobody? I am here, and you dare come to join the commotion?”

”Scram! Otherwise, I will incinerate you along with them!”

When Long Da heard these arrogant words, his expression didn’t ripple in the slightest from beginning to end.

He sat calmly on Yao Xuan’s back, looking down at the Demon Emperor from above, and spoke slowly:

”Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu, you have ruled the Demon Court for billions of years, treating all spirits as food and the Human Race as straw dogs.”

”Within your territory, the Human Race is kept like livestock and enslaved by the Yao Race, slaughtered at will without mercy. This is your first great sin.”

”To vent your personal spite, you forcibly drew upon the Solar Origin True Fire, intending to burn the Immortal Realm to the ground. A single Immortal Realm is the place where countless beings at the peak of the Ten Thousand Worlds rely for survival, yet you insist on overturning the universe and incinerating all things. This is your second great sin.”

”With the status of an Immortal Emperor, you commit acts of madness. Possessing supreme power, you allowed your heart to be consumed by tribulation qi, sinking into madness. Instead of reflecting in silence, you indulge in slaughter and desire, bringing chaos to the heavens and misery to all living things. This is your third great sin.”

”With these three sins standing together, the principles of heaven cannot tolerate you.”

”I have descended today for no other reason than to suppress your sins and take your life.”

As soon as Long Da spoke, the entire world suddenly went silent.

Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu was first stunned, then erupted into a sharp, piercing, wild laugh: ”Hahahaha! Suppress my sins? With just you?”

”I have spanned eternity and experienced countless Immortal Tribulations and slaughters; among the Immortal Emperors of the Immortal Realm, no one has ever dared to speak such arrogant words before me!”

Daoist Lord Jiuyin’s brow furrowed slightly; he had lived so long and seen many arrogant people, but never one this arrogant.

Facing an Immortal Emperor who had already lost his mind and possessed a sky-toppling killing intent, to dare say to his face that he would take his life... he either possessed absolute strength that crushed everything, or he was even more mad than the Demon Emperor.

The Thunder Emperor was blunt: ”Fellow Daoist, Jinyu’s mind has been completely clouded by tribulation qi, and his killing intent is at its peak. Your words will only stimulate him further.”

The implication was: ’You should shut your damn mouth and stop adding fuel to the fire by provoking the maddened Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu.’

The Bamboo Staff Immortal Elder also advised: ”Fellow Daoist, it is not appropriate to add more chaos at this time.”

The Barbarian Ancestor Demon Emperor spoke up: ”This... uh, I wonder how I should address you, Fellow Daoist?”

Hearing this, Long Da seemed to remember that he had not announced his name since appearing.

Sitting on Yao Xuan’s back, his gaze swept across the Immortal Emperors present, and he said in a deep voice: ”I am the Master of the Heavenly Court, Nash Long Da.”

As his voice fell, the world went silent again for a moment.

A single thought flashed through the minds of all the Immortal Emperors: Nash Long Da?

This name was unheard of, never appearing in any ancient records or rumors of the Immortal Realm.

And the Heavenly Court? Since when did the Immortal Realm have a Heavenly Court?

Emperor Cang’s brow furrowed tightly.

He had operated in the Immortal Realm for untold millions of years; he knew the Immortal Court, Divine Court, Demon Court, Buddhist Sects, every major Sect, and hidden power like the back of his hand.

But the two words ’Heavenly Court’ were indeed something he had never heard.

Emperor Haotian was also completely bewildered.

The Thunder Emperor even directly mumbled: ”Nash... Long Da? Why does this name sound so strange?”

The Bamboo Staff Immortal Elder was polite, cupping his hands: ”So it is Fellow Daoist... Long Da. Forgive my lack of manners.”

Long Da, however, said no more.

He raised his hand, and the sky-rending blade unsheathed.

The blade was three feet long, mysterious black like ink, with a dark red blood groove.

The beast eye on it suddenly snapped open, and a malevolent Aura filled the surroundings.

Immediately after, the star-shattering hammer flew up from his waist, and the cloud-piercing spear transformed into silver light, circling his body.

The Soul-Extinguishing Thorn was hidden in his sleeve, ready but not yet fired.

The Heaven-Burning Seal flew out from his Dantian, hovering above his head as Nine Nether World-Burning Fire flickered on its surface.

Long Da didn’t waste words; he first activated the sky-rending blade and slashed toward the Demon Emperor, Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu.

A pitch-black blade light cut through the void, heading straight for the Three-Legged Golden Crow’s head.

Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu was furious and summoned the heaven-suppressing order to block in front of him.

The blade light struck the black ripples of the heaven-suppressing order, making a piercing metallic clashing sound before finally dissipating.

Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu sneered: ”That’s it?”

Long Da remained silent as the star-shattering hammer followed closely behind, smashing toward the heaven-suppressing order.

Where the hammer fell, the void collapsed, causing the black ripples to oscillate violently.

Although the heaven-suppressing order wasn’t broken, the Demon Emperor’s body trembled slightly.

At this moment, the cloud-piercing spear transformed into a silver light, fast as lightning, bypassing the heaven-suppressing order to stab directly at the Demon Emperor’s left wing.

The Demon Emperor flapped his wing to parry; the spear tip pierced into the feathers, and although it didn’t cause fundamental damage, it brought down several golden feathers.

Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu was enraged and shouted, ”You seek death!”

He immediately prepared to activate the Heaven-Burning Sun Wheel, with boundless Solar True Fire surging out to strike Long Da.

But before his mystical art could take shape, Long Da had already made a move.

The expressions of the surrounding Immortal Emperors changed drastically, and they hurriedly called out to stop him:

”Fellow Daoist Long Da, absolutely not!”

”Do not provoke him any further!”

”Watch out for that Solar True Fire!”

Everyone was full of dread, fearing that Long Da’s reckless actions would completely drive Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu insane, causing him to recklessly detonate the Solar Origin and drag down the entire Immortal Realm.

But no matter how much advice reached his ears, Long Da ignored it completely.

He had descended here today specifically to kill Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu.

Only by killing this monster could the Heavenly Court manifest powerfully in the Immortal Realm and gain fame in a single battle.

Only by killing this monster would the various ancient powers of the Immortal Realm truly take this newly emerged Heavenly Court seriously.

Long Da said loudly: ”Fellow Daoists, no need to panic.”

Before his voice finished, he reached out and pulled, taking off the mysterious black imperial robe formed by the chaos set.

The mysterious black robe left his body and transformed into a mass of deep black light that shot into the sky, suddenly spreading out in mid-air to form a boundless pitch-black canopy.

The hundreds of strands of Solar Star Origin True Fire that were spiraling downward were all steadily covered and isolated within this canopy.

The canopy was as black as ink, with countless stars flowing on its surface.

When the Solar True Fire fell upon this canopy, it was actually blocked.

Not only was it blocked, but the canopy remained motionless, without even a single wrinkle.

At this moment, the pupils of Emperor Cang, Emperor Haotian, Daoist Lord Jiuyin, the Thunder Emperor, and all the other Immortal Emperors shrank, their faces full of horror.

Just what kind of Heaven-Defying treasure was this?

Solar Origin True Fire was the core fire of the Sun Star, incomparably overbearing; a single strand was enough to incinerate an entire Immortal Domain.

And now, hanging in the sky were as many as several hundred strands.

Just now, the six Immortal Emperors working together could only barely trap a few strands, unable to extinguish them or force them back.

Yet this canopy transformed from an imperial robe could so effortlessly and firmly imprison the world-incinerating Solar Star Origin True Fire.

The Barbarian Ancestor Demon Emperor murmured: ”Heavenly Court... Nash Long Da... when did such a character appear in the Immortal Realm?”

Emperor Cang and Emperor Haotian looked at each other, both seeing deep wariness in the other’s eyes.

However, although the chaos set was strong, it was not omnipotent.

Long Da knew in his heart that this robe could block the Solar True Fire for a time, but not forever.

The temperature of those true fires was too high and their endurance too strong; the chaos set’s damage reduction ability would be continuously consumed before it.

Holding out for a few hours was no problem, but if the problem wasn’t solved at its root...

Meaning, if the Demon Emperor wasn’t killed, once the chaos set was burned through, everything would still be in vain.

Therefore, he had to settle the battle quickly.

Long Da no longer hesitated, and a vast and boundless Aura erupted from his body.

In his palm, five-colored brilliance flowed—green, red, yellow, white, and black—corresponding to the Five Elements of wood, fire, earth, metal, and water.

The five-colored brilliance intertwined and gradually condensed into a giant palm.

That palm covered the sky and the sun, and in the center of the palm, the phantom of a world was faintly visible.

It was precisely the Divine Ability: Five Elements Great Luo Heaven Immortal Kingdom in Palm!

The five-colored giant hand descended from the sky, grabbing toward the true body of the Demon Emperor Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu, the Three-Legged Golden Crow.

Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu was greatly shocked and activated the heaven-suppressing order to resist with all his might.

The Heaven-Burning Sun Wheel also flew back to his side, releasing endless true fire, wanting to burn through that five-colored giant hand.

But that five-colored giant hand had the Five Elements generating each other, endless and unceasing.

Solar True Fire belonged to fire, so within the five-colored hand, there was the red fire element power to contend with it.

The suppression power of the heaven-suppressing order was blocked by the thickness of the yellow earth element power.

The Demon Emperor’s attacks actually couldn’t shake this palm in the slightest.

The five-colored giant hand closed, tightly clutching the Three-Legged Golden Crow in its palm.

The Demon Emperor struggled, roared, spat true fire, and activated Spirit Treasures... but like a monkey pressed under the Five-Finger Mountain, he could not move.

This scene shocked all the Immortal Emperors present.

It also shocked the Golden Immortals and Immortal Kings throughout the Immortal Realm who were secretly spying on this great battle.

...

Extremely far from the battlefield, there was a desolate little Immortal Domain.

At this moment, in a corner of this Immortal Domain, a Three-Eyed One-Legged Bull Demon was lying prostrate on the ground, shivering.

He was not small in size, being a hundred zhang tall, pitch black all over, with his three eyes wide open and his single leg trembling slightly.

This demon was a powerful Immortal King under the Demon Court, the Three-Eyed One-Legged Bull Demon Immortal King.

His cultivation was not low, and he was well-ranked among the Immortal Kings of the Demon Court.

Ordinarily, he was a tyrannical lord, controlling the resources of several Middle Thousand Worlds.

At this moment, however, he was like a frightened mouse, curled up in a corner of the desolate Immortal Domain, watching that Immortal Emperor battle from afar through layers of void.

When that five-colored giant hand appeared and grabbed the Three-Legged Golden Crow, the Three-Eyed One-Legged Bull Demon Immortal King’s face turned pale in an instant.

He recognized that five-colored palm.

In the past, he had laid out a plan in the Spirit Realm, planting chess pieces, wanting to plunder the Luck of the Spirit Realm to nourish himself.

But later, all the chess pieces he had placed were destroyed.

He had investigated the matter at the time and eventually only found a few clues of that five-colored giant hand.

However, he could never see through the true identity behind the scenes, unable to even probe a fraction of the opponent’s background.

He had initially thought that the person who acted behind the scenes might also be an Immortal King.

Simply someone who didn’t follow the rules of martial virtue, secretly crossing realms to personally compete with him for territory.

At that time, he had secretly noted this old grudge, vowing in his heart that once he found out the other’s identity in the future, he would definitely go to their door to settle accounts and reclaim the humiliation of being intercepted.

But seeing this familiar five-colored giant palm again today, his mind suddenly shook violently, and he instantly realized the truth.

The person behind the scenes who had acted back then was not an Immortal King at all!

But a genuine Immortal Emperor powerhouse.

An existence who could easily suppress the true body of the Demon Emperor Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu with just one palm.

The Three-Eyed One-Legged Bull Demon Immortal King felt a chill all over his body.

He no longer hesitated, rolling on the spot and instantly manifesting his true body.

A towering single-legged giant bull appeared, its three vertical pupils full of extreme panic as it frantically scanned the surroundings.

He didn’t dare to stay here for even half a step longer.

Demon Court alliances, the Luck of the heavens, secret layouts—all were thrown to the back of his mind; no matter the plans, none were as important as his own life.

His single hoof suddenly smashed the void, and the giant bull exerted his life’s maximum speed, not looking back as he fled frantically toward the most remote, desolate, and ignored dead lands at the edge of the Immortal Realm.

He decided to find a place with no one, dig a hole, bury himself in it, and from then on be isolated from the world, never to emerge.

Never to ask about the conflicts of the heavens, only seeking to survive and save his life.

...

On the distant Immortal Emperor battlefield, the wind and clouds reversed, and immortal light shattered.

That five-colored giant palm firmly held Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu’s body; the Demon Emperor’s Solar True Fire burned frantically as he struggled and writhed.

But his entire Immortal Emperor power had already been imprisoned by the giant palm; his breath was failing, he was at the end of his rope, and he no longer had any of his previous arrogant and fierce might.

Long Da still stood steadily on Yao Xuan’s back, expressionless.

His five fingers slowly closed, and the five-colored giant hand tightened accordingly.

Crack! Crack!

Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu’s bones made cracking sounds, and golden blood seeped out from between his feathers.

Long Da raised his eyes, the depths of his gaze surging with the pride of looking down on the world: ”Your three sins stand together, your guilt is unpardonable, today you shall be executed.”

As his voice fell, the five-colored giant hand suddenly exerted force.
