Xiuxian: But It's Not a Game

Chapter 301 Earth Immortal Takes Action, Immortal's Edict

Twelve seconds later, the time field ended, and the time power that had frozen everything disappeared.

The moment the power of time disappeared, time flowed again, and the golden body and Buddhist kingdom of the Buddhist master who made the first move turned into gray powder and collapsed. The more than one thousand years of time span caused his complete demise.

At the same time, five other experts unleashed terrifying damage exceeding 100 million in the instant time flowed, instantly shattering the five of them, along with their treasures, into pieces.

"Is this...the Time Realm?"

The two surviving experts were shocked, as if they had seen a ghost.

The surrounding spectators stared wide-eyed, speechless.

Only the four surviving disciples of major sects reacted quickly. Upon seeing Su Yu's movement, they immediately surrendered without hesitation.

"Xuanzhen Daozi's cultivation is superb; we are completely humbled!"

Su Yu paused, grinned, and asked:

"So, do you still submit?"

"Impressed!"

"Then what should you do?"

"We'll leave right away."

"That's it?"

The four exchanged a glance, and one of them gritted his teeth and said:
"I am willing to offer one million gold coins as an apology."

The other three quickly added:

"I am also willing to offer one million gold coins as an apology."

Su Yu nodded and said in a deep voice:
"Note that this is not an apology, but compensation for the deaths of our members."

"I will remember you. You can pay within a month. You can leave now."

The group quickly clasped their hands in greeting, turned around, and left.

They were genuinely terrified, especially the two who were lucky enough to survive within the time dimension.

As the realm of time unfolded, their thoughts were directly frozen in time, their memories remaining fixed before the battle, and the twelve seconds frozen in time did not exist in their memories.

In the blink of an eye, six out of ten people suddenly died. Who wouldn't be afraid?
Not only them, but half of the many spectators around them were already starting to back down, because his performance just now was just too exaggerated.

Su Yu keenly sensed the crowd's emotions and shouted loudly:
"I'm giving you one last chance. If you withdraw now, it will be as if nothing happened!"

With a wave of his hand, he condensed his magic into an hourglass that hung in the air, with sand slowly flowing down inside.

The immense pressure from instantly killing six master-level experts caused morale to visibly plummet. Coupled with the high probability of losing the battle, these factors combined led to a rapid decline in morale among those who were either too timid or too old to participate.

With someone taking the lead, others will naturally follow, and more and more people will choose to withdraw and not participate in this battle.

Some skilled players from other parts of Blue Mountain Island, secretly aided by powerful guilds, were still hesitant, quietly asking their guild leaders, who were hidden among the spectators:
"President, what should we do? Should we continue?"

Many high-ranking members of the guilds who watched the entire battle sighed inwardly and replied:

"Let's retreat. With such a super expert here, the guild alliance is unlikely to be able to defeat them. The rise of the Thousand Star Palace is unstoppable."

In less than a minute, most of the several thousand rogue cultivators recruited by the guild alliance had left, and no amount of promises from Kong Luoshu and Zhang Bonan could stop the experts from withdrawing.

"It's over!"

After a brief silence, Kong Luoshu suddenly stood up and said to Zhang Bonan:
"We can't wait any longer; it's time to ask our elders to take action."

Zhang Bonan paused for a moment, then nodded, and the two got up and left.

A moment later, Kong Luoshu arrived at the rear chamber of the Flying Star Ship, bowed to the four figures at the head of the table, and said in a deep voice:
"Disciple Kong Luoshu requests the elders to make a move!"

The figure in the center stood up, and a loud voice rang in Kong Luoshu's ears:

"I have brought with me a celestial talisman from our sect's treasured collection for this battle, which can easily kill him."

"In addition, the sect leader has made an agreement with the fellow disciples of the Divine Boat Sect, and they will also bring one over."

“If the power of an immortal kills them, even if they can be resurrected, they will be severely weakened and will not dare to show themselves casually. You can take this opportunity to launch a major attack and defeat them in one fell swoop.”

Kong Luoshu understood. The elder meant that killing someone with the immortal talisman would result in extremely high casualties, so high that Su Yu dared not risk appearing again.

He didn't know how severe the death penalty would be if he were killed by the immortal talisman, but since even the Earth Immortal Elder said that he would suffer a great loss of vital energy, he would lose at least several decades of lifespan. After dying twice, Su Yu would definitely not dare to continue taking the risk.

It's important to understand that while the lifespan lost due to death can be recovered through various life-extending treasures, not all lost lifespan can be regained.

There are many special injuries that result in the loss of lifespan up to the maximum, which cannot be recovered even after using life-extending rare and precious materials.

Kong Luoshu returned to the command room full of confidence and soon saw Zhang Bonan, who was equally confident. The two looked at each other and nodded.

"Contact those supporters who haven't left yet and tell them to calm down; there's a big show to watch later."

"In addition, we should contact those who left earlier and try to persuade some to stay, otherwise even if we defeat Su Yu, we will have difficulty defeating the Thousand Star Palace army."

The two guild alliance leaders were full of confidence and began to issue orders.

On the battlefield, half of the guild alliance's supporters had already withdrawn, and the Thousand Star Palace had gained an absolute numerical advantage in terms of loose immortals, especially top-level experts, with the guild alliance having almost no members left.

Su Yu glanced back at the hourglass. Even though he had deliberately doubled the time, it had already reached its end.

"So be it."

With a thought, he reached out and shouted:

"Continue the attack."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt an extremely dangerous sensation rushing towards him, making his scalp tingle and his hair stand on end.

A strong sense of danger prompted him to immediately summon the Azure Cloud Canopy, but he still felt no sense of peace.

"Even the Azure Cloud Canopy couldn't withstand it?"

With 50 million defense and 75% damage reduction, the Qingyun Treasure Canopy can withstand a terrifying burst of up to 200 million damage.

Even this couldn't withstand it.
Su Yu's first reaction was that an immortal had intervened, his second reaction was that a demonic immortal from the demonic sect had intervened, and his third reaction was to activate the great supernatural power of Supreme Dragon Transformation with a thought.

With a deafening roar, crimson light exploded, and a crimson dragon, thirty-three kilometers long, appeared between heaven and earth.

"Wow!"

"A true dragon with a level 298 mythical template?"

Not only were the players shocked, but even the two factions of Earth Immortals who were hiding in the background and activating the Immortal Talisman were extremely surprised.

Such talent!

The two factions of earth immortals were somewhat guilty, but by this time the immortal talisman had already been activated and the arrow was nocked; it was too late to regret it.

At the same time, Xuanwei Daoist behind him immediately stood up after seeing Su Yu transform into a dragon and said with a solemn expression:
"The disciple's grand-disciple suddenly transformed into a dragon; someone must have launched a sneak attack."

The Floating Mountain Immortals, including Old Ancestor Youlong, all stood up. With a single step, they vanished from sight, reappearing on the battlefield. Their first instinct was to look towards the rear of the guild alliance, and they angrily rebuked them:

"You audacious Flying Star Divine Boat Sect! You dignified Earth Immortals dare to ambush our sect's Daoist disciple! You are courting death!"

Several Earth Immortals immediately took action. With a wave of their sleeves, the void within a radius of several kilometers in the direction of the Guild Alliance sank. At least seventy to eighty thousand Qi Refining players within were instantly crushed into a bloody mist without any power to resist, revealing eight figures surrounded by spiritual light behind them. "Damn it, so many Earth Immortals, run!"

The few dozen surviving rogue immortals turned and ran without saying a word. Soon, only more than ten earth immortals from both sides and the locked-on red dragon remained in the vast area.

After his master made his move, Su Yu saw eight Earth Immortals from the two factions hiding behind him, preparing to launch a sneak attack. Each faction had one Earth Immortal, and in their hands, a talisman surrounded by spiritual runes was radiating a heart-palpitating aura.

"How brave!"

Xuanwei Daoist immediately reached out and pressed down, and with some unknown supernatural power, the space within a radius of more than seventy kilometers began to distort and deform.

However, the opposing side was not to be outdone. The two factions quickly assigned tasks, with two Flying Stars and three Shenzhou Sect members, a total of five Earth Immortals, to fight against the Five Elders of Suspended Sky.

One Earth Immortal from each of the two sects continued to activate the Immortal Talisman, while another Earth Immortal from the Flying Star Sect faced the Crimson Dragon.

"As expected, they were well-prepared."

The Crimson Dragon snorted coldly, extended its dragon claws, and with a swift stroke of its sharp, crimson nails, it opened a huge passage. A jade dragon emerged from it, followed by a giant five-colored divine ox, upon which flew a stunningly beautiful woman sat atop the divine saddle on the ox's back.

As soon as Canghai appeared, countless eyes fell on her.

While ordinary players might simply find the woman beautiful, the immortals felt a chill run down their spines as they looked at her.

"Where did he get so many Earth Immortal helpers?"

The two factions of Earth Immortals were on the verge of collapse, especially the Flying Star Sect Earth Immortal who had come to intercept the Crimson Dragon. When Cang Hai looked over, a chill rose from the bottom of his heart and rushed straight to his mind.

"Danger!"

Without hesitation, he transformed into the form of an Earth Immortal and summoned a ninth-tier defensive magic treasure, which he then suspended above his head.

As soon as the magic weapon was unfurled, a blue ball of light flew out from Canghai's hand, hurtling towards him like a meteor.

Wherever the meteor went, space was distorted and twisted, leaving a long, distorted trail in the void.

"Can't stop it!"

"They can't escape either."

He immediately realized the situation and activated his protective qi and various defensive techniques.

All the methods were used in an instant, and the ball of light had already struck in the next instant.

"boom!"

The protective magic treasure shattered on the spot, and the protective aura and various defensive secrets crumbled like paper in an instant. An invisible force struck the Earth Immortal's Dharma Image, and the invisible power twisted and deformed the Earth Immortal's Dharma Image.

One second later
"Boom!"

The Earth Immortal's Dharma form was crushed and collapsed by the Sea-Suppressing Pearl, and the Earth Immortal's primordial spirit was powerless to resist under the innate immortal treasure and was destroyed in one fell swoop.

With a single strike, he instantly killed a mortal immortal.

Ignoring the shock around him, Canghai reached out and recalled the Zhenhai Pearl. Instead of attacking again, he looked up at the successfully activated Immortal Talisman. Above the Earth Immortal's head, a pillar of light shot into the sky and exploded into an enormous halo. A figure of light, whose appearance was indistinct, stood within the halo.

From the moment they activated the Immortal Edict to Su Yu transforming into a dragon and Cang Hai instantly killing a terrestrial immortal, only five or six seconds passed.

Before he could grieve for the fall of his fellow disciple, the Flying Star Sect Earth Immortal raised his hand as if it were a massive weight, his fingers trembling as he pointed at Su Yu. The luminous figure in the air looked up, drew his sword, and slashed at the Crimson Dragon.

In an instant, a terrifying sword aura that filled the entire field of vision rushed towards the Crimson Dragon.

The speed was so fast that it was already there in the blink of an eye, and he was struck before he could react.

"Roar!"

A thousand-foot sword aura swept across, cleaving the enormous crimson dragon in two from its waist, unleashing a terrifying damage of up to 5 million.

"Holy crap, that's some terrifying damage."

Fortunately, I reached level 298, and the Supreme Dragon's HP exceeded 600 million, otherwise...
"This is definitely not an ordinary immortal."

Although Su Yu had never seen a true immortal make a move, he knew that the combat power of a celestial immortal wouldn't be this outrageous. A casual sword strike could deal 500 million damage, which was simply too exaggerated.

"Not dead yet?"

Seeing that the half-red dragon was still full of life, the Flying Star Sect Earth Immortal was extremely surprised. He gritted his teeth and once again activated the Immortal Talisman for the final strike. The luminous figure in the air once again casually slashed down with his sword, and then collapsed and disappeared.

But before he could make a move, Su Yu had already canceled the Supreme Dragon Transformation.

It was unstoppable. The Immortal's Edict unleashed a staggering 500 million power, and the Supreme Dragon Transformation had 100 million remaining health. Not only would the Crimson Dragon be killed, but its true form would also be annihilated.

More importantly, he had a strong premonition that if the Crimson Dragon was killed, the Supreme Dragon Transformation might have unpredictable consequences.

His great supernatural power is different from the Heavenly Ghost Transformation. When a Heavenly Ghost Transformation dies, it will revert to its original form, and after a period of time, it can transform back into a Heavenly Ghost.

However, the Supreme Dragon Transformation is essentially a transformation built around the skeleton of a real dragon. Once the dragon dies in battle, the dragon bone will be destroyed, and the technique will be rendered useless unless a new dragon bone is found and refined again.

However, the new Supreme Dragon Transformation will be affected by the new dragon bones, and its template, level, and dragon species will all change.

If an ordinary Azure Dragon skeleton were used instead, the next Supreme Dragon Transformation might only be a level 200 peerless template Azure Dragon, and even the Heavenly Dao Divine Power of Shifting Stars and Changing Constellations would disappear, never to regain its current power.

The immortal talisman unleashed a sword aura that instantly pierced the crimson dragon, aiming directly at Su Yu's true form, which had just appeared.

"bingo!"

The immortal from the Flying Star Sect was overjoyed, but his joy vanished in less than a tenth of a second:

"what?"

The immortal sword energy struck Su Yu, passing right through him as if it had only struck a phantom.

"Treading through time!"

Su Yu directly activated his trump card, the Time Divine Power, and entered the River of Time. For the next five seconds, he was invincible and even the power of immortals could not touch him.

The Flying Star Sect's Earth Immortal's heart sank, and he immediately transmitted his voice to the Divine Boat Sect's Earth Immortal not far away:

"What are you waiting for?"

The Earth Immortal of Shenzhou Sect nodded in acknowledgment and immediately activated the Immortal Talisman. The summoned immortal pointed a finger, and the space within a hundred meters centered on Su Yu suddenly sank. In an instant, unimaginable magical power blasted everything in this space into dust.

Everyone's vision went black; their eyesight was crushed.

One second later, the space returned to normal, and Su Yu remained motionless.

"Two seconds left."

Su Yu looked up, a smile appearing on her face.

Not only did it block three attacks in a row, but after entering the River of Time, the cooldown time of all skills and techniques was refreshed, including the Supreme Dragon Transformation.

To his surprise, even the severe injuries he suffered before transforming into a dragon were refreshed in this state, and he was restored to his best condition, so he could immediately transform back into his complete state.

"So!"

He looked up at the dim immortal talisman in the hand of the Earth Immortal of the Divine Boat Sect in the distance, a slight smile playing on his lips:

"Any other moves? If not, it's my turn."
