Chapter 382: The Main God Space (38)

Su Chen watched Burial True Immortal Monarch attempt to summon his former Dao and did not intervene.

From what he knew of Burial True Immortal Monarch, if there had been any chance, the man would have returned to the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain long ago to reclaim his old path.

The fact that Burial True Immortal Monarch had not returned and instead struggled through the mortal world to forge a new path suggested only one possibility.

Someone else had already claimed the path he once walked. Such situations were not uncommon among True Immortals. Those who proved their Dao and became immortals opened a position on that path and became its pioneer. The path would then persist throughout the myriad heavens.

Yet there was one detail: once the original True Immortal lost himself or was killed by a great enemy, the immortal position would become vacant. During that time, any being who cultivated that path had a chance to claim it.

At first, the position might not recognize these new candidates. But as the original creator remained out of contact, the position would gradually select suitable successors. A new True Immortal would emerge to occupy that immortal path. Naturally, the current holder would never willingly surrender the hard-won position. Even if the original creator returned, they would kill him without hesitation until his true spirit sank completely into reincarnation and dissipated, or until he forged a second immortal path.

Of course, some immortal positions remained loyal. Even after losing contact with their creator, they would select no successor. In such cases, the path would gradually fade without new inheritors, becoming a severed Dao that vanished from the myriad heavens.

Burial True Immortal Monarch clearly belonged to the former group. His connection to his old immortal position had grown weaker until it was completely severed. When he looked back, someone else had already claimed it. He had no choice but to walk a second path.

Now that he had revealed his identity and tried to summon his former position, the current master of that immortal seat would not relinquish it so easily.

No, he would not.

Burial True Immortal Monarch's face turned deathly pale as he suffered a heavy blow.

"Burial True Immortal Position, the one I created... Even if you no longer recognize me, why will you not lend me even a trace of power?"

Burial True Immortal Monarch seethed with hatred. He hated the heartless immortal position, but he hated the current True Immortal who occupied the Burial True position even more.

In an eternal space hidden within the river of time, an existence lightly suppressed the restless power within his body. He glanced in the direction of Burial True Immortal Monarch.

"Useless."

He had not expected Burial True Immortal Monarch to lose in this struggle for immortality.

At the same time, a terrifying gaze shot over from another direction.

"You Transmigrator Alliance have grown bold indeed... You dare scheme against my Main God Space!"

With Burial True Immortal Monarch's exposure, his entire past was traced back and laid bare before the eyes of the True Immortals.

All the old secrets could no longer be hidden.

The hand of the Transmigrator Alliance had been behind Burial True Immortal Monarch.

The True Immortal who occupied the Burial True path smiled when his intentions were exposed. "Burial True is not a member of my Transmigrator Alliance. Do not slander us. This matter has nothing to do with the Transmigrator Alliance."

He denied it outright. Although anyone with eyes could see the Transmigrator Alliance's schemes behind Burial True Immortal Monarch, that lord had hidden everything well. Even if others could tell, the lack of concrete evidence made it useless.

The True Immortal from the Main God Space burned with anger. If Burial True Immortal Monarch had succeeded in proving his Dao and obtaining the Main God Space origin, it would have been disastrous for them.

After all, they all relied upon the "Main God." But this was not the time to dwell on it. The battle in the lower realm was about to reach its conclusion, and they had their own opponents to face.

The eternal space trembled with surging auras.

A war far beyond mortal comprehension fully erupted.

True Immortal against True Immortal.

Inside the strange space, the Lord of Scourge watched the Fourth Scourge legions crumble. His expression remained calm and indifferent as he gazed at Su Chen's figure.

"I should have killed you back then."

The thought pierced through endless spacetime and years, locking onto Su Chen at the center of the battlefield.

Su Chen heard the calm yet killing-intent-filled voice echo in his mind. He knew the source of that supreme voice belonged to none other than the Lord of Scourge behind the Fourth Scourge.

"You no longer have the chance."

Su Chen replied indifferently.

As soon as the words left his mouth, he completely refined Burial True Immortal Monarch. The Fourth Scourge legions were entirely wiped out by his hand, and most of the myriad heavens camp's powerhouses had also fallen. Only those who had not participated in the battle survived.

In the unseen depths, Su Chen received a bestowal. No, two bestowals.

These gifts from the unseen were exactly what the top forces of the myriad heavens had been scheming for.

The Northern Nether Demonic Dao... and the origin Dao immortal of the Main God Space. In this moment, he proved dual immortal positions at once.

...

At this very moment, inside the strange space.

As the Lord of Scourge finished speaking, the sky above the strange space suddenly melted like ice and snow. Four indescribably majestic beings of infinite power descended. Spacetime dimmed, and the flow of years narrowed to a single line. Only the Dao radiance circulating around those four figures remained, eclipsing every other concept of existence.

Immortal Kings! Four Immortal Kings!

They had arrived at the same time. Their mere existence was beyond common reason. Any being beneath the immortal level would be completely assimilated by their paths with just a single glance.

The Heavenly Gang Immortal King. The Nine Skies Thunder Commanding True King. The Supreme Severing Fortune Immortal King. The Six Paths Void Immortal King.

"You arrived quite quickly," the Lord of Scourge sneered. "Are you afraid I will reclaim my former position and settle accounts with the forces behind you?"

The Nine Skies Thunder Commanding True King spoke calmly. "The Lord of Scourge truly has impressive methods. Even in that great war, you managed to escape by shedding your shell. As for settling accounts with the forces behind us, you must be joking. Since you fell once, you can naturally fall a second or third time..."

As he spoke, the Dao of thunder across the myriad heavens stirred. Wherever he stood became the site of a great tribulation.

Facing the confident Nine Skies Thunder Commanding True King, the Lord of Scourge's eyes filled with mockery. "A force like the Palace of Kings dares to speak so arrogantly. If I were at my full strength, the Fourth Scourge would have razed your Palace of Kings to the ground long ago."

The Nine Skies Thunder Commanding True King showed no anger. In his eyes, the Lord of Scourge was already trapped.

The Heavenly Gang Immortal King leaned forward and glanced into the distance toward Su Chen's location.

The Supreme Severing Fortune Immortal King shot the Heavenly Gang Immortal King an expressionless look. The Heavenly Gang Immortal King calmly withdrew his gaze.

"Lord of Scourge, as long as you separate the origin of the Fourth Scourge, we will not trouble you," said the Six Paths Void Immortal King. His indistinct face had six different auras revolving behind him, manifesting all phenomena of the myriad heavens. Those phenomena appeared hazy, void, and even reverted to the most primordial state of the myriad heavens.

The Lord of Scourge's aura surged as his dimension rose higher.

"Do you four minor Immortal Kings truly believe you have me cornered?"

At that moment, the Lord of Scourge's cultivation reached the Immortal King realm. He had secretly kept a hidden card all along.
