一下子就弄进去岳的身体

Still, his appreciation was only that. He would not be merciful to his enemies. Especially if they come from the Buzhou Immortal Sect.

Even he had to admit that the Buzhou Immortal Sect was a hard nut to crack. Even when he was incognito inside, he couldn’t learn anything that was too important. Originally, he could act wantonly due to his identity as the grand elder’s son. But thousands of years ago, she suddenly vanished without a trace. Without Empress Xi’s protection, he became more and more of an eyesore, and the people who had enmity with him couldn’t sit still any longer.

Since that was the case, he planned to make a splash before leaving. Especially that annoying Redseal.

Xi Longtian first visited Lovespot and killed him. Although the boy wasn’t exactly a clone, he could still absorb the latter as nutrients thanks to the unique nature of his conception. The latter’s death naturally aroused Redseal’s killing intent.

When the elder rushed to him, Xi Longtian unleashed his strongest attack, nearly killing the elder instantaneously. It surprised him a bit, and made him marvel at the Buzhou Immortal Sect’s foundation, but that didn’t prevent him from finishing off the injured elder.

He knew that he was on a time limit the moment he killed Lovespot, so after killing Redseal, he wanted to destroy as much as possible before fleeing, but he never expected to be stopped. He had never taken the sect master of the Buzhou Immortal Sect seriously, but he never expected the latter to have mastered five worldly laws.

Sect Master Xia could fight him on even ground, but neither opponent could kill the other in a short amount of time. Knowing that he was in limited time, Xi Longtian fled before long. If Sect Master Xia activated the formation and boosted his own powers, he would likely be suppressed if not killed. That’s not mentioning the other immortal elders, especially Empress Voidink.

After that point, the Buzhou Immortal Sect chased after him, but Xi Longtian repelled and even killed his pursuers. After a while, the Buzhou Immortal Sect gave up and posted a bounty on his head. The bounty couldn’t kill him, only disgust him with all the incessant flies buzzing around him.

Although it puzzled him why Empress Voidink didn’t also attempt to kill him, it gave him some guesses as to what happened to the Buzhou Immortal Sect’s immortal emperors. He wasn’t the only one as the Anti-Heaven Alliance started to pressure the hegemonic force.

With his old enemy no longer able to do anything to him, Xi Longtian appeared in the Xi Dynasty, which he had secretly controlled years ago. The Xi Dynasty became a forbidden zone with no trace of members of the Buzhou Immortal Sect. Of course, spies were inevitable. No matter how many he uprooted and killed, they would never disappear, a cancer.

Originally, Xi Longtian thought that he would not see another member of the Buzhou Immortal Sect until after the Anti-Heaven Alliance started a war against the hegemonic force.

Xi Longtian wasn’t blind. Although he had no definite proof, the Buzhou Immortal Court had definitely weakened.

The first sign was the disappearance of his body’s mother, Empress Xi. The Buzhou Immortal Sect did its best to hide the news, but as the youngest and most talented immortal empress, other forces would always pay attention. They noticed something was wrong when she didn’t show herself after a long time. Although immortal emperors often cultivated in seclusion for decades, if not centuries. Empress Xi was young and had not adjusted to the long life of an immortal, so she appeared more frequently than the Buzhou Immortal Sect’s two other immortal emperors.

Eventually, a hostile force probed the Buzhou Immortal Sect and discovered that not only was Empress Xi missing, but so was Empress Voidink. This ignited the Anti-Heaven Alliance’s ambition and the Eight Pillar Sect’s hostility. This was when the Buzhou Immortal Sect was at its weakest. Even if they couldn’t destroy it, they could force the sect to plummet in power for the foreseeable future.

It was not like the Buzhou Immortal Sect had not done the same thing to the Eight Pillar Sect before.

While others salivated at what they could do because of the two sudden disappearance of the two missing empresses, Xi Longtian had a different consideration. He wasn’t joyful like the other forces. As a former half-step immortal sovereign, he knew the existence of alternate selves, and by extension, timelines.

Although it wasn’t always the prime timeline version that always absorbed the alternate timeline versions of themselves, it was undeniable that the prime timeline version held the upper hand. Because two immortal empresses suddenly disappeared without warning, Xi Longtian couldn’t help but be suspicious.

Currently, he wanted to find if Empress Xi or Empress Voidink had been secretly dealt with or were hiding. If they really disappeared into thin air, then the most likely case was that they were absorbed by their alternate selves.

The sudden absorption didn’t mean that they were absorbed by the prime timeline version, but it was a hint that the timeline was on the weaker side. The weaker the timeline was, the more quickly it would reach destruction.

This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.

Xi Longtian knew he was on a deadline, if that was the case. He had absolute strength in himself and believed his alternate selves could reach the peak of whichever timeline they were in. However, that didn’t mean he would be willingly absorbed or even wait for the universe’s destruction. He had grand ambitions.

So what if he was not in the prime timeline? He would reach the peak power of his timeline and enter the prime timeline. No one, not even his other selves could stop him! Certainly not these wet-behind-the-ears whelps!

Xi Longtian left his throne and flew forward in an arc. His motion was smooth and clean. There were no extraneous movements, and his simple movements exuded a sense of beauty, as if it was a worldly law.

Zi Zun and Xia Yushan only had time to cross their arms and raise their sword sheaths when the Dragon Emperor’s palm reached them. The air exploded as palm slammed into the arms and wooden sheaths.

“Not a bad reaction,” Xi Longtian said. His gaze was still condescending, as if it didn’t matter that the two blocked his attacks.

“You only got a jump on us because you suddenly attacked us,” Xia Yushan said. An audible sharpness rang from his sword as he unsheathed it. “It won’t happen again.”

Xi Longtian laughed. “You’re still so childish. This is why I hate coddled cultivators from sects like you. You should have expected me to attack the moment you declared your hostility to me. That’s ignoring the fact that I released my aura.”

Xia Yushan snorted, not replying.

In the short time the two exchanged words, Zi Zun had transformed. It wasn’t that noticeable, but his hair had turned golden. It became spiky and upright with small flashes of lightning arcing around his body.

“Oh, is that the legendary Thunder Duke’s Lightning Incarnation Technique?” Xi Longtian asked. Even though he felt Zi Zun’s power increase, he wasn’t worried at all. “But is that all? From the rumors, I thought it would be more powerf—”

While still speaking, Zi Zun appeared in front of Xi Longtian in a flash, his fist mere centimeters from colliding into Xi Longtian’s face. The expected sensation of hitting flesh did not travel up Zi Zun’s arm, making him narrow his eyes.

“I see. Even if I dodge your fist by a hair’s breadth, I will still be affected by the lightning field around your body,” said Xi Longtian, who had tilted his head.

Zi Zun snorted and continued to attack. Unleashing punches so fast, he appeared to have a thousand arms punching simultaneously. Yet, Xi Longtian was weaving through his attacks with a much slower movement speed. His hands also struck out, deflecting and blocking the attacks. It looked as if Zi Zun was deliberately missing his punches.

“Let me help you, Brother Zi!” Xia Yushan said. He appeared behind Xi Longtian and unleashed his sword. Pincered by two immortal monarchs, he didn’t believe that Xi Longtian could continue to dodge forever. When Xia Yushan saw Xi Longtian’s hand moving to block his sword, a hint of excitement appeared in his eyes.

However, the scene he expected to see did not appear.

After grabbing Xia Yushan’s sword, Xi Longtian’s hands blurred and struck Zi Zun’s chest, knocking him backward. “An emperor artifact, your master sure is willing? No wonder you dare to attack me.”

“Let go!” Xia Yushan shouted. It felt like an iron vice had clamped around his sword, making him unable to budge. Upon seeing no resistance, he controlled the Law of Metal and caused the emperor artifact sword to resonate.

Not even Xi Longtian dared to casually grab an unleashed emperor artifact, so he let go. After letting go, his hand blurred again and slapped Xia Yushan away.

Xia Yushan suppressed a pained groan. More importantly, he felt as if his immortal body had destabilized for a moment. A drop of sweat slipped down his forehead. If his immortal body became permanently destabilized, it would collapse, and he would become a rootless soul.

However, he did not back away. He gripped his sword harder and the fighting intent in his eyes became stronger. He knew that Xi Longtian’s greatest expertise was his saber techniques. Although he hadn’t brought it out yet, it didn’t mean he and Zi Zun had brought out their hidden cards, either.

At this moment, Zi Zun’s transformation increased. Light emanated from his skin, and his eyes turned pure gold. Lightning would flash from his eyes occasionally. He stared at Xi Longtian and a lightning bolt spewed out of his eyes toward the reborn Dragon Emperor.

Xi Longtian casually slapped it away. “I hope you weren’t banking on that paltry trick defeating me, or else—”

Once again, Zi Zun appeared in front of Xi Longtian when he had not finished speaking. Xi Longtian grunted and his hands flashed forward, blocking and deflecting Zi Zun’s blows. Zi Zun’s speed had increased again, making it almost impossible for him to dodge as easily as before. Furthermore, each time his hands interacted with Zi Zun, lightning would zap him and attempt to bore into his body.

While he was dealing with Zi Zun, Xia Yushan attacked. Although nothing seemed to have changed, there was a metallic sheen on his exposed skin.

Even Xi Longtian had to admit he couldn’t deal with the two casually, but only that. He would only need to take it a bit more seriously.

His hands sped up, and he unleashed a powerful straight punch. Zi Zun crossed his arms, but due to the speed, it appeared as if hundreds of arms appeared in front of him to block the punch. The other hundred continued to assault Xi Longtian.

Xi Longtian paid no heed. His punch broke through the blockade of arms and struck Zi Zun’s chest, forming a hole. However, he frowned.

Zi Zun’s chest, which had a hole in it, did not leak any blood. There were no bones, blood, or organs, only lightning.

“You transformed yourself into lightning?” Xi Longtian asked.

Zi Zun said nothing. While the hole in his chest naturally closed, his punches were about to land on Xi Longtian. Behind him, Xia Yushan’s sword was about to slash him.

In response, Xi Longtian’s eyes changed. Literally. His eyes, including his sclera, became pitch black and emanated an aura of destruction. He swirled around to face Xia Yushan, ignoring the indignant Zi Zun. His hand, which held nothing, swung toward Xia Yushan.

Moments before Xia Yushan’s sword connected, a blade saber appeared in his hand and clashed against the sword. Zi Zun’s punches also reached Xi Longtian, but the moment they landed on his body, they disintegrated into stumps. A destructive force destroyed his punches the moment he connected.

Xia Yushan felt his hands become numb from the clash of sword and saber. He tried to hold his ground, but he was launched into the wall. Zi Zun also attempted to retreat at this time, but faster than his body could move, Xi Longtian turned around and sliced his body in half.

“Brother Zi!”
