Chapter 246 Kill 4 Immortal Lords First
Chapter 246 Kill 4 Immortal Lords First
A slender immortal lord with a pointed chin, high cheekbones, narrow forehead, and messy eyebrows was meditating and cultivating in his immortal palace when he suddenly sensed a dangerous aura.
The immortal opened his lifeless eyes, frowned, and muttered to himself, "Hmm?"
What happened just now?
It's as if something big is about to happen.
Just as this person was about to get up and leave his immortal palace to check, he suddenly shouted angrily, "Who dares to trespass on my immortal abode?"
Do you want to die?
As soon as he finished speaking, a sword light flashing with five colors appeared before him.
Upon seeing this, the immortal lord instinctively summoned his magical artifact to defend himself.
However, before this immortal lord could fully unleash his aura...
He then saw that the magical artifact he had just used for defense had been easily cleaved in two by the five-colored sword light.
Before he could utter a sound, the five-colored sword light struck him, splitting him in two.
In the final scene of this immortal lord, Zhu Chongjiu finally revealed his figure after the disappearance of the multicolored sword light.
Seeing that the immortal lord was completely dead, Zhu Chongjiu said disdainfully, "Killing you would only take the blink of an eye."
Besides, just by looking at you, I can tell why you don't fit in.
He really has a face that makes him look unapproachable!
After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu began to clean up the battlefield.
While looting the treasure, he exclaimed with great joy, "Haha!"
It's out! It's out!
"They must have moved all their assets here, right?"
While Zhu Chongjiu's side had already won the first battle and was plundering the treasures, a celestial soldier near the celestial palace of this celestial lord looked into the distance ahead and muttered to himself in confusion.
"Um?
Where is the immortal palace of the Earth Rat Immortal Lord?
It was still there when I came out just now.
How could such a grand celestial palace disappear in such a short time?
The celestial soldier scratched his head, puzzled for a moment, and then continued to mutter to himself, "Forget it, I'd better not report it and mind my own business."
This Earth Rat Immortal Lord is notorious for being unable to distinguish between good and evil, and for being capricious and unpredictable.
It's possible that the Immortal Lord has gone elsewhere and re-established his camp.
After saying this, the celestial soldier returned to his tent.
Half an hour later, Zhu Chongjiu had looted all of the Earth Rat Immortal Lord's belongings, along with the immortal palace that he had reduced to its original size, and threw them into his storage ring, handing them over to the ring steward (Rat Guardian) to begin sorting and classifying.
After doing all this, Zhu Chongjiu sensed the Immortal Clan army camp hundreds of thousands of miles away and thought to himself, "Before they discover me, I need to quickly choose my next target."
Otherwise, this tactic won't be so effective once they discover it.
After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu immediately selected another dead ghost and his figure disappeared from the spot in an instant.
When he reappeared, another celestial palace appeared alongside him.
Zhu Chongjiu followed the same method and finished another order half an hour later, his face slightly pale.
Looking at the greatsword in his hand, Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "With a light stroke of the greatsword, I can cut a gap in the Immortal Palace's barrier, so I don't need to use spiritual power in this regard."
However, casting the Five Elements Annihilation spell requires a considerable amount of spiritual power.
If it weren't for the suppressive effect of the Divine Tree Immortal Palace on the Immortal Lord, he would have only needed to use the Five Elements Annihilation twice, and even if he wasn't unconscious, he definitely wouldn't be able to get out of bed.
After speaking, Zhu Chongjiu checked the remaining spiritual energy in his dantian.
It is estimated that it can still support itself to release the Five Elements Annihilation three more times.
At that time, I will need to rest and recover.
If they manage to steal a chicken and lose the rice instead, they'll become a laughing stock in the entire metaverse.
During this period of self-reflection and self-mockery, Zhu Chongjiu managed to calm down for a moment.
After regaining his composure, he disappeared from the spot again.
And so, after finishing the fourth job, the moment Zhu Chongjiu stepped out of the Immortal Palace, his legs were already trembling, just like that middle-aged man who had a one-night stand with three beautiful women.
He was covered in sweat, and his face was deathly pale.
(Don't overthink it, everyone. When I said "middle-aged man playing mahjong with three beautiful women all night," I meant playing mahjong all night long. You can't stay up late anymore when you get to middle age; I'm one of them, staying up late makes me weak!)
Okay, now let's get back to the main topic.
At this moment, Zhu Chongjiu, with his hands on his knees and his body swaying like an old man, said unsteadily, "Although I can still unleash a Five Elements Annihilation attack even at the cost of minor injuries."
But if there is more than one person in the next celestial palace.
Even if it were just an ordinary celestial soldier, I'd probably struggle with it.
To be on the safe side, let's call it a day and fight again another day.
There's plenty of time anyway.
By constantly changing locations after each attack, Zhu Chongjiu successfully killed four immortal lords.
Although none of these are the most powerful in the Immortal Lord's team.
When Zhu Chongjiu reappeared in front of the children, Xiao Jin was the first to exclaim in surprise upon seeing his current state: "Brother Jiu, what have you been doing?"
"How did it get to this state in just over two hours?"
After saying this, Xiao Jin turned around and looked at Xiong Da, who had an anxious expression, and continued, "That is Ninth Brother's most loyal guard."
You'll have to keep an eye out for rare and precious herbs that can nourish the kidneys and replenish qi and blood for Ninth Brother in the future.
The food should ideally consist mainly of the kidneys of various masculine-attribute monsters.
Look how weak your Ninth Brother is!
After saying that, Xiao Jin turned around and shook his head helplessly, muttering to himself, "Only two hours, what a waste! All show and no substance!"
After hearing this, Zhu Chongjiu struggled to raise his head and watched Xiao Jin's departing figure.
With his last bit of strength, he flicked Xiao Jin on the forehead and then fainted amidst Xiao Jin's cry of pain.
When Zhu Chongjiu woke up, ten days had passed.
The first thing he did after waking up was to sense the situation within the immortal army.
The immortal army was tense and on high alert.
More than a hundred powerful immortal lords gathered together, seemingly discussing something.
Using his authority over the Wood Ancestor, Zhu Chongjiu overheard them talking about their doubts about the disappearance of four Immortal Lords in the past ten days through the surrounding plants and trees.
As Zhu Chongjiu was pondering the movements of the remaining hundred or so Immortal Lords, he saw more than twenty Immortal Lords returning from each of the four directions: east, west, south, and north.
Upon seeing the return of the Immortal Lord, several of the more than one hundred Immortal Lords who had been there earlier stepped forward and asked, "Did you find any clues on this trip?"
Upon hearing the immortal's words, the four immortals from the four directions stepped forward simultaneously and replied, "We found a clue, but it's of little use."
"Oh?
Tell me quickly!
Upon hearing this, the immortal immediately asked the four people.
The four of them then recounted their findings to the assembled immortal lords.
All they found was information about the immortal palace where the four missing immortal lords resided.
But it was completely empty, with only some remnants of the celestial palace remaining, and nothing else.
After hearing this, everyone asked in doubt: "Four directions, and they all disappeared at roughly the same distance from the army camp."
What exactly happened?
At this moment, a burly-looking immortal lord angrily said, "That damned Zhurong Tianguang, it's already this late, why isn't he awake yet?"
"We're not the commanders of an army, so why should we be in charge of these things?"
"Fellow immortal, be careful what you say!"
This situation is no longer simply a matter of Zhu Rong Tian Guang; this time, it concerns the lives of you and me, the Immortal Lords.
After hearing someone admonish him, the Rough and Mighty Immortal Lord fell silent and retreated behind the crowd.
After a moment, another immortal lord spoke up, asking the crowd with a question: "Do you think it could have been done by those human ants?"
No sooner had the immortal lord finished speaking than someone retorted, "Impossible!"
"Let alone him, a mere celestial general, even if you or I, or any one of us here, were to single out one of us, who could silently kill four celestial lords?"
Upon hearing this immortal lord's resounding analysis, many of the immortal lords present nodded in agreement.
Some even chimed in, saying, "Let alone whether those human ants can kill four immortal lords."
It's impossible for him to have lured four immortal lords to such a distance so quietly.
And there are four different directions.
At this point, the Immortal Clan army was actually unaware that Zhu Chongjiu had obtained the authority of the Wood Ancestor.
The giant trees, thousands of meters tall, that were originally used for fanning the air and then suddenly appeared and disappeared, were eventually believed to have been helped by the mastermind behind this world.
Despite their analysis, the group still couldn't come to a conclusion.
In the end, everyone agreed that it was done by the mastermind behind this world.
There is no other explanation!
Some people wanted to report this matter to the patriarch, but it was mostly suppressed.
The reason given is that the fate of the four missing immortal lords is still unknown.
It's even more uncertain whether they ran away on their own.
Let's wait and see, or wait until Zhu Rong Tian Guang wakes up.
Another reason is that the four who died were people who were not well-liked by the public.
While everyone seems to be desperately analyzing and searching for these people, they are actually just thinking about their own safety.
Upon seeing this, Zhu Chongjiu's initial tension completely subsided.
At the same time, he smirked wickedly and said, "That's for the best. I'll play along with you guys for a bit longer!"
