"Not only the
"Could it be... could it be that the three great demon clans have already allied themselves with the Immortal Execution Archipelago?" Staring at the figures in the sky, Dongxue was greatly shocked. Her petite body was trembling uncontrollably at this moment—it was clear just how terrified she was.
"Isn't it obvious? The three great demon clans have always kept a low profile and never participated in conflicts between humans. For them to mobilize so many expert demon warriors to come here today—they've clearly brought out their full force."
"No need to think further—they've definitely allied with the Immortal Execution Archipelago. It seems this time, our enemies have truly come with ill intent." Though Xiayu wasn't as shaken as Dongxue, her delicate brows were tightly furrowed, her eyes filled with unease.
"It's you—they must have come to capture you! Get out there quickly and don't drag us down with you!" Hearing this, Dongxue grew even more terrified and immediately pointed the finger at
"Sister Dongxue, now is not the time for internal strife. Besides, Master is right up on the Immortal Peaks. Even if they have us outnumbered, we need not necessarily fear them. There's no need to be so on edge." Seeing this, Qiuzhu spoke up to mediate.
"Sister Qiuzhu is right. What is to be done, Master will decide for herself. Since when did you need to stick your nose into it?" Chunwu also let out a cold snort and rebuked her.
"You—" Dongxue was quite furious at Chunwu's words, but her current fear far outweighed her anger, so she didn't bother arguing. Instead, she kept glancing back over her shoulder, hoping the Ethereal Fairy would appear soon.
Because the army outside was far too powerful. Not only were they numerous, but every last one was an expert martial cultivator—tens of millions of them, packed so densely they blotted out the sky. The sight was truly terrifying.
Even the people here had all seen their share of grand spectacles, but none had ever witnessed a formation like this. To say they weren't afraid would be an outright lie.
The Immortal Execution Archipelago was now recognized as the foremost power in the Eastern Sea.
As for the three great demon clans—though they had always kept a low profile, rarely interacting with humanity and remaining confined to their own territories, virtually cut off from the rest of the world—their strength was unquestionable. Now that the Immortal Execution Archipelago had allied with the three great demon clans and come together as one, who could possibly stand against them? Even if the Piaomiao Immortal Peaks' protective formation was sturdy and their strength formidable, no one here could feel confident.
Though some might put on a brave face, nearly everyone's heart was pounding. Fear and unease were the emotions churning within them all.
As for Dongxue's hostility toward him, Chu Feng paid it no mind—he simply had no time to spare. He was carefully observing the army that had descended upon the Piaomiao Immortal Peaks, assessing their combat strength.
The Immortal Execution Archipelago had brought five Martial Kings.
One of them was the
There was another who, like the Sixth Immortal, was a first-rank Martial King. Chu Feng had never seen this one before, but from the strength of his aura, he believed this was likely the
Back in the Abyss of Sin, Chunwu had received intelligence that the Immortal Execution Archipelago had sent three Martial Kings, one of whom was the Seventh Immortal. But for reasons unknown, the Seventh Immortal hadn't appeared that day, which was precisely what had allowed the battle to drag on long enough for Chu Feng to ultimately activate the grand formation and secure victory for the Remnant Night Demon Sect. And now, he was finally seeing the face of this Seventh Immortal.
On either side of the Sixth and Seventh Immortals stood two elderly men wearing the robes of the Immortal Execution Archipelago. They were both quite advanced in age, but their cultivation was far beyond the first rank—both were second-rank Martial Kings.
Though they were second-rank Martial Kings, their auras felt somewhat weaker than that of the Third Immortal, who had fought against Xue Xiyue at the ruins of the Burning Heaven Holy Sect. So Chu Feng deduced that these two were most likely the
Of the original Nine Immortals, only seven remained, and four of them had appeared today.
Why four? Because the remaining Martial King of the Immortal Execution Archipelago was clearly not one of the Nine Immortals.
This elder also had white hair, but his face was completely without wrinkles, giving him an exceptionally vigorous appearance. His attire was also distinct from the others. Though somewhat different, the Immortal Execution Archipelago's emblem was still embroidered upon his robes. In particular, the crown atop his head bore a striking resemblance to a royal crown, also emblazoned with the archipelago's insignia.
Most importantly, this elder's aura was extremely powerful—even stronger than Youming Deng's. Since he wasn't concealing his presence at the moment, Chu Feng could clearly discern that this man's strength far surpassed those four Immortals—he was a fifth-rank Martial King.
Such formidable strength, combined with that unique and noble attire, the imposing royal crown, and the reverent attitude of every member of the Immortal Execution Archipelago—Chu Feng didn't need to guess who this was.
He could only be
In addition to the people from the Immortal Execution Archipelago, quite a few experts from the three great demon clans had also arrived.
The two
As for the Rock Beast Clan and the Blood Qilin Demon Fish Clan, they had actually sent even more Martial Kings than the Blazing Phoenix Clan and the Immortal Execution Archipelago—six each.
Moreover, two of those from each clan were also fourth-rank Martial Kings, and their unique, noble attire—distinct from that of the other clan members—made it clear that the clan leaders of these two great demon clans had also come in person.
The Immortal Execution Archipelago and the three great demon clans—their most powerful figures had all arrived. This lineup was already terrifying enough.
But Chu Feng noticed something else. Among the vast army, there was yet another figure—someone who made him feel even more uneasy.
It was a young man, standing behind the gathered Martial Kings, beside Murong Xun. His position wasn't particularly conspicuous, but this unknown young man utterly outshone the distinguished Young Island Master of the Immortal Execution Archipelago, making him look absolutely worthless by comparison.
This young man was definitely under thirty years of age—even younger than Murong Xun.
Not only was he tall and well-built, he was also quite handsome. Those sharp, sword-like eyebrows exuded an imposing vitality that far surpassed Murong Xun's.
Most importantly, though this young man's aura was concealed, Chu Feng still managed to detect that he was a fourth-rank Martial King—and his aura was even thicker and more powerful than that of the three great demon clan leaders. To possess such cultivation at such a young age was truly unimaginable.
