Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor-Chapter 1106 - 1116: The True Powerhouses

"The Upper Earth Immortal Realm is beyond our imagination. The Demon Emperor has been in seclusion for years, and everyone thought he was indulging in a life of leisure. Unexpectedly, he has mastered the Slaughter Sword Dao. It seems that below the top masters of Earth Immortal Realm Perfection in Sword Immortal City, another Great Buddha has emerged."

Ye Wu's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. From her eyes, one could see a hint of longing, but more of it was apprehension.

The top experts in Sword Immortal City are just so many.

Each time a master comprehends the True Sword Dao, it means the balance of power will shift.

"Ye Wu, how strong are those at the Perfect Level Earth Immortal? Are there many experts of this level in Sword Immortal City?" Chu Feng couldn't help but ask.

He harbors great ambitions, not only to unify the Divine Martial Continent but also to one day take control of Sword Immortal City.

Knowing more about his opponents early on would greatly benefit him.

"There are no more than five known masters of Earth Immortal Realm Perfection. There may be some discrepancies because some Earth Immortals are very low-key. Even if they've cultivated to the Perfection Realm, they won't publicize it. As for how powerful the masters of Earth Immortal Realm Perfection are, that's a foolish question. Each one is an invincible presence, truly unbeatable, and no one can rival them."

When Ye Wu mentioned the Earth Immortal Realm Perfection, her face was full of awe and admiration.

Before such beings, any thought of resistance simply could not arise.

"Moreover, the number of Upper Earth Immortals in Sword Immortal City is not small. However, those who can comprehend the True Sword Dao are very few. Even if they only comprehend the First Level of the True Sword Dao, that would be enough to look down upon ordinary Upper Earth Immortals. In fact, such beings can even have a certain say in front of strong masters of Earth Immortal Realm Perfection."

From Ye Wu's words, it's not hard to discern that Upper Earth Immortals who comprehend the True Sword Dao hold a very high status.

One could understand their combat power like this.

Weaker than the Great Perfection level, stronger than ordinary Upper Earth Immortals.

In fact, Chu Feng suspected that experts who comprehended the True Sword Dao could already threaten Earth Immortals of the Perfection Realm. Otherwise, they wouldn't have any say.

The Demon Emperor displayed immense strength, easily repelling Chief Clerk Feihong, feeling quite proud of himself.

"Listen up, on this venture to the Immortal Tomb to seek treasure, I must be prioritized to obtain the treasures inside. No one is allowed to compete with me, or don't blame me for being ruthless with the sword. I'll let you in on something—I've even killed all my wives and concubines to master the Slaughter Sword Dao."

This really scared everyone.

To kill one's wife for enlightenment is only a mythical story.

No one expected someone to truly do such a thing for the True Slaughter Sword Dao.

And the Demon Emperor succeeded.

The Demon Emperor himself mentioned it in an unbelievably calm tone. His indifference to life had reached a horrifying level.

Chief Clerk Feihong was furious, his face darkened, but lacking the strength, he could only swallow his anger, unable to refute.

Ye Yanying's specific strength is unknown, but his demeanor is quite amiable.

He seemed indifferent to the Demon Emperor's outrageous demands.

Was it his merchant nature, or was there another reason?

"The Slaughter Sword Dao is indeed formidable, ranking among the top ten in the Three Thousand Sword Dao. I, as a humble scholar, would like to experience it firsthand. Please, Fellow Taoist Chang, enlighten me!" Qin Jian, the Scholar, is truly extraordinary.

His conduct is both righteous and unrestrained, carrying the elegance of a scholar.

His strength is equally unfathomable.

Last time, during an auction, he faced difficulty and was mocked by Young Master Jin Ling. He retorted, saying even Jin Ling's father wouldn't dare be so rude to him.

One could infer that Scholar Qin Jian's strength, even if not at the Great Perfection level, could at least contend with the Sword Immortal City Lord.

"Behold the sword!" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

The Demon Emperor's style is domineering, without any empty words, directly making his move.

With a simple sword strike.

There was no earth-shattering momentum, even described as quiet and silent.

This time, Chu Feng finally saw clearly.

When the Demon Emperor swung his sword, a nearly transparent fine sword light slashed out from the tip.

"Ding~!"

Scholar Qin Jian plucked a string, then released it.

A wave of sound spread around.

Boom, boom, boom!

In the empty space between Scholar Qin Jian and the Demon Emperor, an intense and dense sound of explosions was heard.

One wielded the Sound Wave Sword Dao, the other the Slaughter Sword Dao, each with strengths and weaknesses.

"Having long heard of Fellow Taoist Qin Jian's great reputation, I found today that it is well-deserved. The Sound Wave Sword Dao, as it turns out, is not a bit weaker than the Slaughter Sword Dao. It has truly opened my eyes,"

said the Demon Emperor as he continued to swing his sword repeatedly.

"Ding ding ding!"

Scholar Qin Jian rapidly played the zither in his hand. Waves of sound continued to collide with the opponent's Slaughter Sword Dao, and the two seemed to be evenly matched, their strengths should be similar.

"Let's stop here. Continuing to fight would only waste Sword Essence. Right now, it's more important to obtain the treasures within the Immortal Tomb."

The Demon Emperor was the first to cease battle, looking at Scholar Qin Jian with eyes full of admiration.

Treating him completely as an equal.

Earlier, when looking at Chief Clerk Feihong, he didn't have this expression. Rather, he was arrogant and full of disdain.

This is the difference between being strong and not strong.

"I, as a scholar, don't mind. Each will rely on their own skill to seize the treasures. If Fellow Taoist Chang doesn't mind, you can join us. I believe with a year's careful preparation, plus my experience, we can surely traverse Naihe Bridge this time."

Scholar Qin Jian smiled calmly, indifferent.

Anyone could feel Scholar Qin Jian's confidence in his own great strength, as well as his detached and carefree nature.

"It's great to have strength!"

Chu Feng watched this unprecedented battle of the strong, gaining a lot and feeling deeply.

Chief Clerk Feihong had been very aggressive throughout, showing little respect for Lower and Middle Earth Immortals, let alone Supreme Sword God Level—he showed outright disdain.

He didn't even consider them as people.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the Demon Emperor appeared, it immediately revealed his true self.

On the contrary, the low-profile Scholar Qin Jian possessed immense strength. Even the Demon Emperor admired him greatly.

Relatively speaking, Chu Feng preferred Scholar Qin Jian's personality more.

He personally bore some resemblance to Scholar Qin Jian.

"I'm delighted to join your team. Just afraid some might be unwilling," Blind Chang hinted, rolling his pupil-less white eyes, looking at Chief Clerk Feihong.

Chu Feng really wondered if Blind Chang was truly blind.

"Hmph, quit the sarcasm. Another pawn to use as cannon fodder is most welcome," retorted Chief Clerk Feihong, having lost face and suffered, looking rather displeased.

With the current trend, his opposition meant nothing.

Since entering the Immortal Tomb, his leading role had silently changed.
