Chapter 847 - 482: Immortal Sect Guardian

The extinguished flame was naturally the one formed from Ye Luo’s Nascent Soul.

After Emperor Fengdu’s Golem regained its footing, a look of shock and uncertainty flickered in its eyes, which had previously seemed capable of seeing through all things. But it had no time to puzzle over Ye Luo’s demise. Two more flames suddenly flickered weakly, like candles struggling against the wind.

"The Yama Underworld’s fated time is up!"

In a purgatory-like space elsewhere, a woman in a red dress clearly sensed something.

"Supreme Star Monarch, there’s no need to struggle in vain. So what if you brought in the Wuxiang Emperor? No one can change the outcome of the Underworld’s destruction now!"

Opposite the woman floated a handsome man with a youthful face, white hair, and a transcendent, immortal aura. The man, known as the Supreme Star Monarch, was currently filled with disbelief. "Impossible. How could this happen?"

According to his initial calculations, as long as Emperor Fengdu’s Golem revived and drew out the true strongest entity of the Underworld, the Yama Underworld wouldn’t be completely annihilated. Who would have thought that Emperor Fengdu’s Golem would run into problems before it could even fully awaken?

One must know that if something went wrong with the Golem, the true strongest entity of the Underworld wouldn’t be able to completely break free from its shackles. Even if it eventually escaped, its strength would likely be severely diminished compared to its peak. When that happened, it probably wouldn’t be able to withstand the suppression of the Celestial Dao Cauldron at all.

"Get lost. There’s no rush; it will be your Ninefold Celestial Court’s turn soon enough! And as for the Wuxiang Emperor, you needn’t be anxious either. Do you really think you’ve hidden the Dubhe Divine Domain flawlessly?" the woman in red sneered.

Hearing this, the Supreme Star Monarch slightly calmed his emotions before saying coldly, "Gu Zhaoyue, so what if the Underworld is destroyed? You all had better worry about Yan Canglan!"

"That’s none of your concern!"

Before her voice had faded, Gu Zhaoyue pointed her finger. Above in the sky, countless streams of starlight suddenly descended, each containing a different destructive Law.

The Supreme Star Monarch scoffed coldly. His figure rapidly blurred until he vanished completely. With Emperor Fengdu’s Golem encountering trouble, it was pointless for him to stay here and stall Gu Zhaoyue any longer. After all, even if she couldn’t personally visit the Underworld, the other Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect disciples who had entered were more than capable of destroying a malfunctioning Golem.

As for the Wuxiang Emperor she had mentioned, he hadn’t spoken a single word or shown himself from beginning to end. By now, he had already fled without the slightest hesitation.

Because the Wuxiang Emperor was far too insidious, Gu Zhaoyue waited in place for quite a while, unable to confirm whether that guy had truly left. In the end, however, she could no longer hold back and turned her head to cough up a mouthful of blood. Defending against both the Supreme Star Monarch and the Wuxiang Emperor by herself had ultimately been a bit too strenuous, but the main reason was that her previous injuries had not yet fully healed.

Compared to her situation, however, the several Supreme Elders of the Immortal Sect who were suppressing the deliberately released monsters in the abyss of the Underworld were actually in far more danger.

Fortunately, as of now, it was all worth it. The revival of Emperor Fengdu’s Golem had gone awry. The strongest entity in the Underworld could no longer hope to escape smoothly and could only be suppressed by the Celestial Dao Cauldron. This was truly a pleasant surprise.

Originally, Gu Zhaoyue had prepared herself mentally for the elite squad dispatched to the Underworld to lose at least half its members. These members were no cannon fodder; they were part of the Immortal Sect’s very foundation. If they suffered too many casualties, the subsequent assault on the Ninefold Celestial Court would only become even more difficult.

Inside the Rebirth Hall.

After Zou Feng transferred the fully brewed Poison of Reincarnation, he was utterly exhausted. Fabricating the Reincarnation World three consecutive times made his head feel like it could explode at any moment. Consequently, he didn’t dare attempt anything else and hurriedly focused on resting and recovering.

However, he was already pondering how to turn the act of fabricating Reincarnation Worlds into a part of his Cultivation, thereby allowing him to transfer the side effects away. With his current strength, achieving this shouldn’t be difficult in theory.

While resting, Zou Feng naturally didn’t forget to check the List of Gods.

Ye Luo’s name was completely gone. The names of the other two King Yans who had been inflicted with the Poison of Reincarnation had dimmed significantly, looking as if they could vanish at any moment. This was already quite a good outcome. At the very least, Ye Luo had kicked the bucket, and two other King Yans had their Nascent Souls severely wounded. Even if Emperor Fengdu’s Golem could still awaken, its strength would likely be drastically weakened.

Thinking of this, Zou Feng willed it and immediately tried using his mind to write the name ’Emperor Fengdu’ onto the List of Gods. After a flash of bright light, the name was actually inscribed successfully.

If Emperor Fengdu’s Golem could be put on the list, then everything that followed would become much more convenient. The one protecting the two Nascent Soul flames inflicted with the Poison of Reincarnation and keeping them Undying had to be Emperor Fengdu’s Golem.

He thought, "If I hit it with a side effect Critical Strike—not aiming to injure it, just to distract it for a moment so it can no longer protect those two Nascent Souls—wouldn’t I be able to..."

Zou Feng acted on his idea immediately. He currently still had quite a few stored side effects. Because he had suddenly comprehended the Poison of Reincarnation earlier, coupled with Ma Qianqin’s help, he had managed to take down Ye Luo relatively easily. Therefore, he hadn’t even had the chance to use his stockpile of side effects yet.

At this moment, Emperor Fengdu’s Golem had finally managed to stabilize those two flickering flames. Little did it expect a sudden, heavy blow to its head, as if it had been struck from behind with a club. Although this couldn’t cause any substantial injury, a momentary daze was unavoidable.
