Entry: I Secretly Cultivate Immortality in the Martial Arts World

294: Chapter 295 The Three Returns!The fallen Demon Emperor Geng Kui still had many promises and ambitions with the Nether Emperor and the Hunyuan Demon Emperor that had yet to be realized.

There were also many secrets planned during his sixty thousand years of imprisonment in the Chaos Secret Realm that had yet to be revealed.

The Nether Emperor also had hidden trump cards and back-up plans accumulated while guarding the Nether Domain that he had not yet deployed.

But none of that mattered anymore.

When a person dies, their light goes out.

The same was true for the fall of an Immortal Emperor.

Their ambitions, secrets, plans, and obsessions all vanished into nothingness along with the dissipation of their Divine Souls.

A deathly silence fell over the battlefield.

Emperor Cang was stunned.

Emperor Haotian was stunned.

The Five Ancestors of Buddhism were also stunned.

Immortal Venerable Chenyue was likewise deeply moved.

She remembered clearly that the last time Long Da took action, killing Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu within three breaths, it had already been earth-shaking.

But that time, Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu had been besieged by Emperor Cang and Emperor Haotian for a long time, was heavily injured, and his Luck was severely damaged before Long Da caught a flaw and killed him in one blow.

But these three today—

The Nether Emperor, at full status.

Demon Emperor Geng Kui, at full status.

Hunyuan Demon Emperor, at full status.

Three Peak powerhouses of the Immortal Emperor level were turned to ashes by the same axe in the same instant.

What kind of concept was this?

Immortal Venerable Chenyue took a deep breath, suppressing the shock surging in her heart.

Was this the true strength of the Master of the Heavenly Court?

She had long known Long Da was strong, strong enough to join forces with her to resist seven Immortal Emperors without falling into a disadvantage.

But she had never imagined Long Da was actually strong to this extent.

Killing three Emperors in one strike.

After the heaven-opening axe slashed the three great Immortal Emperors, it turned into a streak of dark golden light and returned to Long Da’s palm.

Long Da gripped the axe handle, his figure swaying slightly.

His expression remained unchanged, but his aura was clearly several degrees weaker than before.

The consumption of fully activating the Sky-Opening Strike was simply too great.

Seventy percent of his immortal essence was gone, and his Luck had also suffered quite a bit, not to mention that the backlash from a trace of the Sky-Opening Axe Intent was currently clashing everywhere inside his body.

He took a deep breath, took the heaven-opening axe into his body to nurture it, and swept his gaze across the battlefield.

Emperor Cang finally snapped out of his shock at this moment.

He looked at the three pools of dissipating traces on the ground, then looked at the low-spirited Long Da. His eyes darted around, and he suddenly began to laugh.

“Hahahaha!”

Emperor Cang’s laughter was loud and clear, as if the person who had just been beaten by the Nether Emperor until he spat blood repeatedly wasn’t him.

“Fellow Daoist Long Da has such good methods! Such good Divine Abilities! Killing three Emperors in one strike—such a feat is unheard of since the dawn of the Immortal Realm!”

He cupped his hands toward Long Da in a salute. His posture was respectful, but his tone was neither hot nor cold.

“On behalf of all living beings in the Immortal Realm, this Emperor thanks Fellow Daoist Long Da for stepping in to resolve the crisis. Without that axe of yours, this Emperor, Emperor Haotian, and the various members of the Buddhist Sect would likely have lost our lives to those three thieves.”

Hearing this, Emperor Haotian frowned slightly, glanced at Emperor Cang, but did not speak.

Among the Five Ancestors of Buddhism, Buddha Datongguang pressed his palms together and said in a low voice, “Amitabha. The Buddhist Sect shall remember Benefactor Long Da’s life-saving grace.”

Long Da glanced at him, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Emperor Cang changed the subject, saying, “Fellow Daoist Long Da’s Divine Abilities are peerless; this Emperor admires you immensely. However...”

He paused, his gaze sizing up Long Da, his smile deepening.

“However, that axe of yours just now must have been quite a drain, right? This Emperor observes your aura and it seems a bit... low?”

Emperor Cang spoke politely, but his meaning was already more than obvious.

Long Da was weak now; it was the perfect time to strike.

Emperor Cang had calculated it clearly in his heart.

Long Da’s strength was too great. If they waited for him to recover, all of them combined would be no match for him.

If he didn’t take advantage of his weakness to kill him today, then another day would be his own time of death.

As for life-saving grace or the favor of resolving the crisis, in the face of life and death, it was nothing more than a joke.

Emperor Cang looked at Long Da with a smile and added, “Fellow Daoist Long Da, this Emperor has an uncalled-for request.”

“For a person of your strength to remain in the Immortal Realm makes this Emperor lose sleep and appetite. How about... this Emperor sees you off on your way?”

As he spoke, he flipped his hand, and the Earth-Covering Seal was sacrificed. Mysterious yellow light filled the air as it slowly pressed down toward Long Da.

The movement was not fast, seemingly a probe.

But the killing intent was already exposed.

Emperor Haotian remained silent for a moment, then also raised his Golden Halberd and the Haotian Imperial Seal.

He was not one to return kindness with enmity, but Emperor Cang was right.

Long Da was too strong.

Strong to the point of despair.

If they didn’t take this opportunity to eliminate him, then in the future, the Immortal Court, Divine Court, and Buddhist Sect would all be swallowed by the Heavenly Court.

Buddha Datongguang chanted a Buddhist name in a low voice, and the other four Buddhas also remained silent.

They did not take action, but they did not stop it either.

Seeing this, Immortal Venerable Chenyue raised an eyebrow.

Her figure blocked the way in front of Long Da, her immortal essence surging as her cold gaze swept over Emperor Cang and Emperor Haotian.

“Emperor Cang, Emperor Haotian, is this how you treat your savior?”

Emperor Cang smiled. “Fellow Daoist Chenyue, you and Long Da were always on the same side; calling him a savior is laughable. This Emperor advises you not to poke your nose into other people’s business. You are still injured; you are no match for this Emperor.”

Immortal Venerable Chenyue snorted coldly, advancing instead of retreating.

“Fellow Daoist Long Da just saved us, and you turn around to kill him. How is such behavior different from a beast?”

A moon-white longsword condensed in her hand, the sword light clear and cold as she pointed it at Emperor Cang.

“To kill him, you must pass me first.”

Looking at Immortal Venerable Chenyue’s back blocking the way in front of him, Long Da felt a slight warmth in his heart.

Speaking of which, he already knew Immortal Venerable Chenyue’s background inside out.

His true body, Gu Yan, had a Disciple named Shen Qingyi, who had excellent Aptitude and whose cultivation was progressing daily.

And Immortal Venerable Chenyue was exactly Shen Qingyi’s younger sister.

To call her a sister was actually because the two were originally one entity.

The reasons behind this were complex, involving an ancient secret method that could divide one soul and one spirit into two bodies, each cultivating separately, to be unified when the time was ripe or to remain independent.

Shen Qingyi and Immortal Venerable Chenyue shared this kind of relationship.

Thoughts turned in Long Da’s mind.

Once his true body absorbed the Immortal Realm and integrated it into the system of the Supreme Creation Daluo Grotto-Heaven, he would let Shen Qingyi and Immortal Venerable Chenyue reunite.

As for whether the two would merge into one in the future or each cultivate their own Dao, that would depend on their own choices.

Long Da suppressed these thoughts for the time being, looked at Immortal Venerable Chenyue, and smiled slightly.

“Fellow Daoist Chenyue, there is no need for this.”

“This old man hasn’t reached the point where he needs a woman to stand in front of him.”

Immortal Venerable Chenyue was startled.

Long Da took a deep breath and slowly stood up straight.

He closed his eyes and opened his arms slightly, as if embracing the heavens and earth.

The next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and shouted loudly.

“Return of the Three Qis!”
