Chapter 1873: Immortal Couple

Translator: Legge 

Su Zimo reached out and received the jade dagger.

“Mmm?”

The moment his palm touched the edge of the jade dagger, he felt a sharp pain and a wound appeared on his palm!

Impressive!

Su Zimo thought to himself.

Although he was a Grade 6 Black Immortal, the defense of this Green Lotus True Body was extremely strong. It was invulnerable to fire, water and weapons. Even a connate black-grade Dharmic treasure might not be able to hurt him.

To think that his palm would be injured just by touching the jade dagger gently!

The dagger was at least an earth-grade Dharmic treasure and its quality was definitely not low!

In that case, there was a high chance that the divine lights that burst forth from the abyss were all such divine weapons.

Su Zimo looked around. On both sides of the abyss, there were some cultivators who had yet to enter the abyss. Like him, they picked up various Dharmic treasures and checked them briefly before looking delighted, as though they had obtained an utmost treasure!

Just as Su Zimo was about to put away the jade dagger, a warning flashed in his mind!

A shuddering sharpness arrived instantly and stabbed towards the back of his head!

Before it truly arrived, he felt a sharp pain on his scalp!

“Not good!”

The attacker’s methods were extremely sharp and decisive. Even if he released other movement divine powers, it would be difficult for him to avoid this fatal killing move!

Without hesitation, Su Zimo channeled his Essence Spirit and released the True Dragon Nine Flashes!

Swish!

In a flash, Su Zimo vanished from the spot.

By the time Su Zimo reappeared, he was not far away and looked towards where he was initially.

A cultivator stood there. Although he was skinny and had shifty eyes, he exuded an extremely powerful aura!

That aura had far surpassed the Black Essence realm!

Earth Immortal!

“Eh?”

A look of surprise flashed through the skinny Earth Immortal’s eyes when he missed.

He had not expected that his sneak attack on a Grade 6 Black Immortal would fail!

Furthermore, he did not even see how the Grade 6 Black Immortal escaped from his killing move!

“Interesting,”

The skinny Earth Immortal turned around and glared at Su Zimo who was not far away. He extended his palm and chuckled. “Hand over that dagger! A Grade 6 Black Immortal like you is not worthy of possessing such a divine weapon!”

Frowning slightly, Su Zimo hesitated for a moment before tossing the jade dagger he had just obtained over.

The difference between them was too great.

Even if he used all his trump cards, he had no chance of winning!

In front of an Earth Immortal expert, it would be difficult for him to escape even if he released the Extreme Speed divine power of the Golden Roc—there was no need for him to offend this person over a Dharmic treasure.

Furthermore, there were many people here.

There was no benefit for him to have a conflict with this Earth Immortal!

“You’re wise,”

The skinny Earth Immortal received the jade dagger and took a look. With a delighted expression, he flipped his palm and kept the jade dagger.

Su Zimo retreated into the distance after tossing the jade dagger over.

“Hold on!”

The skinny Earth Immortal swayed and was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he blocked Su Zimo’s path and sneered, “Who allowed you to leave?”

“Exalted Immortal, there are even greater opportunities in the abyss. There’s no need for you to waste your time on a Black Immortal like me,”

Su Zimo’s heart sank but he tried his best to remain calm.

“Hmph!”

The skinny Earth Immortal smirked and released a tremendous spirit consciousness pressure that enveloped Su Zimo as he asked coldly, “What technique did you use to dodge my attack earlier on?”

Su Zimo felt as though he had fallen into a swamp and was under immense pressure!

The difference in strength between the two of them was way too great!

Su Zimo’s expression was cold and he said nothing.

“It’s fine if you don’t say it. I’ll search your soul and take a look personally!”

The skinny Earth Immortal’s eyes shone fiercely as he reached out and grabbed the top of Su Zimo’s head!

Against the might of the Earth Immortal’s spirit consciousness, Su Zimo had to circulate his blood qi and release all his trump cards if he wanted to break free!

However, that would expose the Green Lotus True Body.

Furthermore, even if he used all his trump cards, it would be difficult for him to escape from an Earth Immortal!

“Fellow Daoist, aren’t you going overboard?!”

Right then, a gentle voice sounded in midair not far away!

Immediately after, an even stronger spirit consciousness barged in and negated the skinny Earth Immortal’s spirit consciousness.

At the same time, the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi in front of Su Zimo fluctuated violently. In a short period of time, an Essence Qi blade was formed and slashed towards the skinny Earth Immortal.

“Mmm?”

The skinny Earth Immortal had a grim expression and a hint of fear flashed through his eyes, as though he did not dare to take it head-on. He retreated hurriedly and shouted softly, “Who is it?!”

Having escaped death, Su Zimo looked over as well.

Two figures stood in midair, a man and a woman.

The man had a mighty figure and his long hair draped over his shoulders. He was rather handsome but the most attractive thing was his deep and melancholic eyes, as though he had seen through the vicissitudes of life.

The woman had peerless features and skin that was fairer than snow. Her eyes were like water and her fingers were slender. She had a refined bearing and exuded an otherworldly aura!

Both of them wore white robes that were spotless. Standing together, they looked like an ethereal immortal couple.

“Who are you guys?”

The skinny Earth Immortal frowned slightly.

The melancholic man smiled. “Fellow Daoist, this Black Immortal has already handed that dagger to you. Why are you trying to kill him?”

“Hmph!”

The skinny Earth Immortal sneered, “So what if I want to kill him? A Black Immortal of the lower world is like an ant. So what if I trample him to death? Let me advise the two of you to mind your own business and not get yourself killed!”

As he said that, the skinny Earth Immortal touched the badge on his waist casually.

The melancholic man had an indifferent expression. “Four Corner Island is merely a black-grade sect. It’s nothing much in the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom.”

The badge on the skinny Earth Immortal’s waist was the sect badge of Four Corner Island.

Initially, he wanted to use his sect’s name to intimidate the two of them.

To think that the melancholic man was unmoved.

The skinny Earth Immortal was indignant. He hesitated for a moment and glared at Su Zimo before turning to leave, entering the abyss before long.

Su Zimo heaved out a sigh of relief.

Arriving before the couple, he bowed and cupped his fists in thanks. “Thank you for your help, Exalted Immortals. I won’t forget your lifesaving grace. How should I address you?”

“It’s nothing much,”

The melancholic man nodded slightly without saying anything.

Although it was nothing much, apart from the two of them, no one else would offend the skinny Earth Immortal because of a Black Immortal like Su Zimo!

The white-dressed woman looked at Su Zimo and asked, “Are you also here in the abyss to search for opportunities?”

“That’s right. I’m here to try my luck,”

Su Zimo did not hide anything.

The white-dressed woman said, “This abyss is extraordinary and alarmed many experts. Along the way, we encountered a few paragons on the Earth Ranking alone.”

“There are also some Heaven Immortal experts,”

The melancholic man continued with a grim expression.

The white-dressed woman said gently, “Given your cultivation, you’ll most likely die in the abyss. You should be careful.”

Although the white-dressed woman did not say it explicitly, she was reminding Su Zimo not to take the risk.

“Thank you for your reminder, Exalted Immortals,”

Su Zimo expressed his thanks once more.

The melancholic man and white-dressed woman nodded to Su Zimo before turning to leave, disappearing into the abyss without leaving any names.
