Chapter 488 Should we call in reinforcements? (Part 2)

Not only the Holy Lord of the Ji family, but also the Holy Lord of Yaoguang and Nangong Zheng beside him froze with their smiles, nodding in agreement repeatedly, afraid that this fool who didn't know his own mortality would drag them down with him.

This sight surprised the Holy Lord of the Myriad Beginnings, who seemed not to have expected these three to be so wary of the Immortal Palace.

The other holy lords, as well as the young disciples brought by each family, were also extremely surprised by the reaction of the three great beings.

These people had little contact with the Immortal Palace, and had only heard of its powerful figures. They had never seen them appear or make a move, so they did not have an accurate understanding of them.

This is not surprising, after all, the Celestial Palace was only recently created and had no prior reputation.

It's like a super power that suddenly pops out of a stone. Even if there are rumors that a saint is in charge, you should still be skeptical before you see it with your own eyes, right?
The Holy Lord of the Beginning had this mindset.

When he arrived in the Northern Region, Fairy Yuyao, who had previously supported Ye Fan, had already left. Therefore, he only saw Ye Fan, under the name of the Immortal Palace, amassing wealth and harvesting divine sources in his own stone workshop without any protectors.

To be honest, with such an arrogant attitude, any other force would have been slapped to death by the Holy Lord of Myriad Beginnings long ago.

But this guy was fearless and arrogant. Many holy lords said that the immortal palace behind him was not to be trifled with. The Holy Lord of the Myriad Beginnings was new to the area and did not know the situation, so he could only swallow this bitter pill and keep it to himself for half a year before finally venting his anger.

In comparison, the Holy Lord of the Ji Family, the Holy Lord of Yao Guang, and Nangong Zheng are completely different.

They had not only met Fairy Yuyao, but had even had close contact with the mysterious and unpredictable True Lord of the Universe. They knew just how terrifying the Immortal Palace's foundation was, so naturally they would not make the same mistake as the Holy Lord of Myriad Beginnings.

As for why they didn't remind the other holy masters...

The reason is simple, just three words—why?
The various holy lands are competitors, not strategic allies. Even if the three of them are well aware of the power of the Immortal Palace, they have no obligation to solemnly remind other forces.

Moreover, by taking advantage of this information gap, one might be able to either drive one wolf into devouring another, or sit back and watch the tigers fight.

Don't believe me? Look, there are some fools who have taken the bait.
Despite the surprised or disdainful gazes of the crowd, the three leaders of the Ji family remained unmoved.

The Holy Lord of Yaoguang smiled slightly and said leisurely, "As the saying goes, if you do not take what Heaven has given you, you will suffer the consequences!"

"With the divine medicine before us, we cannot back down. However, this is merely a struggle for interests, unrelated to personal grudges. As a member of the Immortal Palace, Saint Ye must understand this principle!"

Nangong Zheng nodded in agreement, saying, "Brother Li is absolutely right!"

"Hmph!" Ji Ziyue snorted lightly, "That sounds nice, but in the end you just want to steal the treasure, don't you?"

The Holy Lord of the Ji family frowned and said, "Ziyue, how dare you interrupt when the lord is speaking? Get out of here!"

Ji Ziyue wrinkled her delicate nose and said with dissatisfaction, "Grandpa Holy Lord!"

Before the grandfather and grandson could finish speaking, the Holy Prince from Ye Fan's side sneered, his entire body radiating golden light as he rose into the air. His eyes, seemingly bursting with torchlight, swept over the crowd in the cave and said:
"Further words are useless. Since we've come for this miraculous medicine, let's see who's the best!"

"Good good!"

The Holy Lord of Yaoguang laughed loudly and praised, "As expected of the Fighting Holy Ape, you truly possess the heroic spirit to fight against heaven and earth!"

The Holy Lord of Myriad Beginnings said coldly, "Previously, the Immortal Palace valued talent and wanted to take you into their ranks. We spared your life in the Holy City out of respect for the Immortal Palace, but this time, it won't be so simple!"

"Oh?"

Before the Holy Prince could speak, Ye Fan glanced at him and said calmly, "Holy Lord Wan Chu, did I hear you correctly? Didn't you just suspect that all the saints of my Immortal Palace had perished?"

"Why are you suddenly changing your tune and starting to give face to my Celestial Palace?"

"Yes, yes!" Xiao Yan and the other disciples of the Immortal Palace chimed in, teasing, "Myriad Beginnings Saint Lord, why are you so deferential at first and so obsequious later?"

"..."

The Holy Lord of the Myriad Beginnings was speechless for a moment. He wasn't stupid. Seeing how eager the Holy Lord of the Ji Family was to distance himself from him, he naturally understood that the true nature of the Immortal Palace was far more complex than he had seen in the past six months.

Even so, faced with the mockery of these junior immortals, the Holy Lord of Myriad Beginnings couldn't help but feel enraged and snorted coldly:

"You're all sharp-tongued, I hope you'll still be laughing later—let's get down to business!"

Before he finished speaking, the Holy Lord of Myriad Beginnings immediately shattered the void and rushed towards the Holy Prince.

The Holy Prince remained fearless, rapidly circulating the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Technique. In the blink of an eye, nine divine lights flashed across his body, and his golden hair stood up like steel needles, each strand sparkling like lightning, shining brilliantly!

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the golden fist shattered the dragon's aura and, carrying boundless battle intent, blasted the Myriad Beginning Saint Lord away.

Caught off guard, the Holy Lord of the Beginning was sent flying backwards for a hundred meters before regaining his footing and staring at the monkey in astonishment.

"what?!"

"Another improvement?"

"How long has it been?!"

Before he finished speaking, two more Holy Lords attacked the Holy Prince.

They had all witnessed the ferocity of this ancient royal family member and the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Technique at the Holy City Stone Archway, so they naturally dared not be careless. Therefore, they used their respective holy lands' famous fighting techniques as soon as they made their move.

"boom!"

In an instant, two beams of divine power, one gold and one red, shot out.

"Well done!"

The Holy Prince laughed heartily, and with a wave of his right hand, a blood-red weapon appeared. He held it in his hand, and it manifested a series of phantom battlefield scenes of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

"It's that vicious soldier!"

The holy lords all wore solemn expressions.

They recognized the blood-stained halberd as the very weapon Ye Fan had once cut out, the very weapon that had killed the ancient royal family!
With this formidable weapon in hand, the Holy Prince was like a tiger with wings, his fighting spirit soaring to the heavens. His eyes flashed with golden light, and with a roar, he charged towards the two divine powers that were tearing through the void.

With a single strike, the two divine lights, one golden and one red, shattered violently.

The Holy Prince, wielding the Blood Spear, channeled his Heavenly Power, using the spear as a long staff, and laughing as he swung it at the two Holy Lords.

"boom!"

The dragon's energy exploded, and the space hummed.

The combined power of the nine divine powers, amplified by the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Technique, erupted with a force far exceeding their respective realms, sending the two Holy Lords who had joined forces to fight the enemy flying.

"Monkey King is mighty!"

Led by Xiao Yan, many disciples of the Immortal Palace burst into laughter and cheers.

Ye Fan floated calmly in the air, a smile appearing on his face as he looked at the Holy Prince who was displaying great power in front of him.

When he first appeared in the world, the Holy Prince had already reached the level of Immortal Two. Now that he has entered the Immortal Palace and obtained the opportunities of the heavens, his cultivation has naturally advanced further and is not far from Immortal Three!
That's why Ye Fan didn't rush to call back Fairy Yaochi to take charge.

Anyway, the story is still in its early stages, and the leading figures of the major forces are only at the level of the Holy Lord.

With the Holy Prince's current strength, plus the added benefit of various treasures in the Heavenly City, he is more than capable of dealing with them!
but……

Ye Fan turned his gaze to the other Holy Lords who had not yet made any move, and couldn't help but frown.

The fighting prowess of the Holy Ape is beyond doubt, but it cannot withstand the overwhelming numbers of the enemy. If these people swarm in, the Holy Prince will eventually be at a disadvantage in the encirclement.

Fortunately, the other party also understood this principle, so they did not act rashly.

After all, their goal was not to defeat the Immortal Palace, but to obtain the True Dragon Immortal Elixir.

Even if they still have to make a move in the end, they must first assess the situation and ensure that they gain the upper hand in the subsequent battle for the divine medicine.

Thinking about this, Ye Fan pondered for a moment, hesitating whether to call for reinforcements now.

The Holy Lord of the Purple Mansion noticed his expression and immediately smiled slightly, saying leisurely, "It is said that the Immortal Palace only accepts geniuses as disciples. You have always prided yourselves on being no less than others, so why don't you hurry up and go and learn from us?"

"Yes!"

Two disciples of the Purple Mansion, one male and one female, respectfully cupped their hands in greeting.

The man was wearing a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat, and had a strange black gourd on his back.

The woman was dressed in purple, with an exquisite face and flowing long hair. Her whole body was surrounded by purple aura, as if she were one with heaven and earth, exuding a transcendent feeling of being without joy or sorrow, without waves or waves.

Without a doubt, these two are the Holy Son and Holy Daughter of the Purple Mansion!

Seeing that the two Purple Mansion prodigies were both looking at Ye Fan, the surrounding Holy Lords' eyes lit up. They immediately smiled and said, following suit, that they should hand over Ye Fan and the others to their own juniors, so that the Immortal Palace experts would not say that they were bullying the younger ones in the future.

And so, the many prodigies from the holy lands accepted the order and looked intently at Ye Fan.

The people from the Celestial Palace were equally unyielding, releasing their auras and glaring back.

Xiao Yan turned his head, looked at Ye Fan, and chuckled:
"Old Ye, what do you mean?"

"..."

Ye Fan glanced at the unresponsive black jade pendant in his hand, pondered for a moment, then put it away. Instead, he mobilized his divine power, his entire body radiating brilliant golden light. He calmly raised his head and said:

"What else can I say... let's fight first!"

"Good good!"

Tu Fei laughed loudly: "I'm going to snatch a saintess back today no matter what!"

The Black Emperor also roared, arrogantly declaring that he wanted to take a holy son or holy daughter as his pet.

Upon hearing the arrogant words of the man and the dog, the faces of all the holy sons and daughters darkened.

"How brave!"

"I hope your abilities are as strong as you say!"

"Stop talking nonsense, come on!"

Xiao Yan laughed loudly, and flames rose all over his body, condensing into a bluish-purple Dou Qi armor on his body.

Tu Fei, Jiang Huai Ren, Li Hei Shui, Ji Zi Yue, and others on the side did the same, shouting loudly and using their own methods to meet the outstanding young generation.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Amidst deafening roars, Ye Fan and his companions clashed with numerous holy sons and daughters. Various divine power fluctuations intertwined within this underground space, stirring up dragon energy and tearing apart the void.

However, no matter how intense the battle became, both sides tacitly remained near the ground and did not interfere with the battle between the powerful beings.

"Buzz!"

The Holy Prince's eyes shone with golden light, and he held a blood-red halberd. With each swing, it seemed as if he could shatter the void, causing the surrounding Holy Lords and powerful beings to retreat in shock.

"This monkey is getting stronger and stronger!"

The Holy Lord of Yao Guang hovered in the air, his expression solemn, and said, "In just half a year, he has been able to improve to this level. If left unchecked, he will probably be able to advance to the next level in no time!"

"Let it run rampant?"

The Holy Lord of the Ji family glanced at him with surprise, as if asking, "You're not planning to deal with this monkey, are you?"

The Holy Lord of Yaoguang understood his meaning and immediately shook his head, saying, "Of course not!"

"That's good!"

The Holy Lord of the Ji family nodded, turned to look at the Holy Prince, and sighed, "This monkey comes from an ancient royal family with powerful bloodlines and astonishing strength. Even disregarding the Immortal Palace, he has already become a force to be reckoned with. How can he be so easily dealt with?"

In my opinion, it's still better to—

Before the words were finished, a streak of light flew past the two of them and manifested the appearance of the Holy Lord of Myriad Beginnings not far away.

He gritted his teeth and stared at the monkey that was displaying its power. Just as he was about to go forward and start over, he saw the Holy Lord of the Ji family and the Holy Lord of Yaoguang still leisurely watching the show not far away.

Seeing this, the Holy Lord of the Myriad Beginnings was immediately enraged and couldn't help but glare at the two of them, saying:
"Brother Ji, Brother Li, are you not going to make a move?"

"Fellow Taoist, don't be anxious!"

The Holy Lord of the Ji family said solemnly, "This place has a peculiar terrain and is extremely dangerous. The people from the Immortal Palace arrived here ahead of time, but they are still staying. There must be a reason behind this that you and I do not know."

"Brother Li and I are searching for the reason. Once we understand everything, we will lend a helping hand!"

The Holy Lord of the Myriad Beginnings could not believe such nonsense, and immediately glared at him, saying, "You—"

"puff--"

Before the words were finished, a streak of green light flew past the three of them.

The Holy Lord of the Myriad Beginnings frowned, glanced at the azure light below, and then his expression changed drastically.

Following his gaze, one could see a figure gushing blood from within the blue light.

His right arm was broken, his chest was caved in, his whole body was covered in blood, and his face was ashen. He was completely disarmed and in a sorry state.

"This is... the Holy Son of Ten Thousand Beginnings?"

The Holy Lord of the Ji Family and the Holy Lord of Yao Guang looked surprised.

The Holy Lord of the Myriad Beginnings had a grim expression. With a wave of his hand, he summoned the heavily injured Holy Son of the Myriad Beginnings and transferred some divine power to him before turning his gaze to the battlefield below.

As expected, the battle below was a one-sided rout.

However, those who were crushed were not the disciples of the Immortal Palace as they had expected, but the young prodigies and holy sons and daughters of various holy lands!

It's not that the disciples of the Immortal Palace are so talented or have such overwhelming cultivation levels, but rather that they are all incredibly wealthy. Just looking at the magical treasures and Dao weapons they possess, it's fair to say that each of them enjoys the treatment of a Holy Son!

Especially Ye Fan, who wielded a black and gold sword with dragon patterns, wore a Xuanhuang essence armor, had a Dao diagram above his head, and summoned a large cauldron. His whole body shimmered with precious light, dazzling and blinding.

With such luxurious equipment, the Holy Body of the fifth level of the Dao Palace displayed unparalleled combat power.

With a swing of his dragon-patterned black and gold sword, streaks of black and yellow sword energy swept out, tearing through the dragon energy and shattering the void.

No matter what robes, armor, or protective skills they wore, they were all utterly destroyed.

With a loud shout, the Holy Son of the Purple Mansion pulled out the wooden stopper from the black gourd, and immediately a torrent of black water poured out, rushing towards Ye Fan and the others like a burst dam.

This black water is called the Heavenly Yin Absolute Water; it pollutes everything and is extremely vicious.

If the victim has no means of countermeasures, they will perish on the spot. Even divine weapons will be corroded by this water and instantly turn into black mist and disappear into the sky.

Faced with such terrifying black water, Ye Fan remained fearless.

He parted the black water with a single sword stroke, then summoned a large cauldron, from which countless threads descended, enveloping his entire body.

Protected by the Cauldron of the Mother Qi of All Things, Ye Fan was impervious to all magic. He neither dodged nor avoided the impact of the black water, but instead slashed upwards with his sword at the Purple Mansion Saint Son who was holding the gourd.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the Purple Mansion Saint Son was sent flying backward, spitting out blood just like the Myriad Beginning Saint Son before him.

If he hadn't been quick-witted and used a gourd cork as a hammer to withstand the sword strike, his fate would probably have been even more tragic than that of the Holy Son of Ten Thousand Beginnings!

"That's it?!"

Ye Fan laughed loudly, his whole body glowing with divine light, and turned to attack the other Saint Son level figures.

Seeing this, everyone, including the Holy Lord of the Myriad Beginnings, had grim expressions. They never expected that this ancient waste body could actually defeat the Four Extremes with the cultivation of the fifth level of the Dao Palace!

Moreover, the other disciples of the Immortal Palace also demonstrated extremely strong combat power.

Xiao Yan has already advanced to the Dou Zong realm. In addition to the strange fire and beast fire he devoured, he also asked Han Li to collect many spiritual fires. His Burning Technique skill is truly astonishing.

Even against a Saint Son at the Fourth Extreme Realm, he could contend with him by fusing with a different kind of fire.

Tu Fei and other descendants of the Great Bandits were already outstanding among the younger generation. Now, after coming into contact with the City of All Heavens and obtaining various powerful magical artifacts and treasures, they have entered the first tier in one fell swoop, standing shoulder to shoulder with the great holy sons.

Looking up from above, one could see their overwhelming arrogance as they unleashed all sorts of strange and unusual treasures to defend themselves.

Some wore custom-made armor painted in jet black, some wielded purple high-energy particle longswords, and others rode on rainbow light, controlling thousands of flying swords to bombard the enemy continuously...

Even more extreme, Tu Fei, the first of the descendants of the Great Bandit to enter the City of Heavens, actually piloted a fifty-meter-tall mecha, laughing loudly in the mecha's cabin while charging forward with a replica of the Devouring Demon Jar on his head.

Of course, compared to the people mentioned above, the most visually striking one is Ji Ziyue, who comes from the Ji family.

The girl appeared atop Ao Bing's head at some point, standing between two prominent silver dragon horns. With a wave of her hand, she could harness the power of heaven and earth for her own use, continuously unleashing various powerful spells.

From a distance, it looked like a mobile artillery platform, blasting the disciples from the opposing factions into a chaotic and disarrayed flight.

Seeing their disciples being chased and brutally beaten by Ye Fan and his group, some of the Holy Lords who had noticed this scene finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"Be bold!"

Enraged, the Holy Lord of the Purple Mansion intervened, rescuing the Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion who was shrouded in thousands of qi needles. Then, he struck Ji Ziyue with a backhand, who had just released the spell 'Azure Phoenix Feather Penetration'.

Upon seeing this, Ao Bing and Ji Ziyue were immediately startled.

The former hurriedly swam away to avoid the attack, while the latter formed hand seals, gathering the surrounding dragon energy and rushing it towards the palm print.

At the same time, the Holy Lord of the Ji family's expression darkened, and divine light burst forth from his body, clearly indicating that he intended to lend a helping hand.

But before he could make a move, the golden dragon hiding on Ao Bing's back sensed the danger, immediately curled up, and let out a terrified and mournful dragon roar.

"hold head high--"

In an instant, the myriad dragon energies that filled the underground space erupted.

The Holy Lord of the Purple Mansion's expression changed drastically, and an ominous premonition rose in his heart for no reason.

Without the slightest hesitation, he quickly withdrew his hand and stepped back.

Just as he retreated violently, a brilliant light shone from the center of the Myriad Dragon Nest, and a vermilion ancient coffin slowly emerged, rising rumblingly from beneath the divine source where the divine medicine was rooted.

It is located in the center of the Myriad Dragon Nest, floating among the fragments of divine source.

The moment it appeared, a terrifying, suffocating pressure surged forth, causing any creature that came into contact with it to tremble with fear, as if its flesh and bones were about to be crushed.

"It's the coffin of the ruthless person's fourth incarnation!"

Ye Fan and Xiao Yan were startled and quickly retreated, shouting sharply:

"Everyone come back!"

"..."

The disciples of the Immortal Palace snapped out of their shock and flew towards Ye Fan and Ao Bing without hesitation.

Even the Holy Prince, who was engaged in a great battle among the Holy Lords, ceased fighting. With a wave of his blood-stained spear, he swept aside the crowd and turned to fly towards Ye Fan.

Meanwhile, everyone present was still in shock at the vermilion coffin.

Just as they were feeling a chill run down their spines and their hair stood on end, the ground around the coffin suddenly began to shake violently.

The next second, the earth cracked and fissures appeared. A primordial creature with overwhelming demonic energy rushed out and, with a wave of its hands, tore several young disciples who had not had time to escape to pieces.

"An ancient creature?!"

The eyes of the holy lords widened in shock, their faces filled with horror.

Even the Holy Lord of the Ji family and the Holy Lord of Yaoguang couldn't help but widen their eyes, seemingly not expecting that their casual excuse would actually come true!
"Roar!"

Before they could react further, the ancient creature below roared, its demonic energy surging forth as it swung its black-glowing claws at the group.

The holy lords suddenly came to their senses, their expressions becoming solemn, and they took action to meet the ancient creature with overwhelming demonic energy.

"hiss--"

"This ancient creature seems rather powerful!"

Xiao Yan gasped, then couldn't help but nudge Ye Fan's arm and whispered:
"The situation is getting out of control... Old Ye, should we call in some reinforcements?"

"..."

Ye Fan glanced at him, sighed, and said, "Is it possible that I already made the decision?"
