Perfect Double Agent

Chapter 400 Heroes of Ancient Times

That evening, people came to the palace from time to time, making the place very lively.

The aroma of wine and meat filled the air, along with the medicinal fragrance of fruit, and the entire mountaintop was bathed in the glow of the sunset.

Most of the people here are very powerful, but Bai Ye and Xiao Tianwang don't recognize any of them.

"I'm Xiang Feng, you did a great job."

This was a gaunt old man with shoulder-length gray hair and a short stature, resembling an elderly neighbor.

But as soon as he said that, Lan'er was shocked and her eyes showed surprise. She transmitted her voice to Bai Ye and said, "He was an amazing genius from a million years ago, known as the seed of the supreme. In that era, there were only two or three people who could compete with him. He was also the first closed-door disciple of the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy. He can be considered the senior brother of everyone in the Holy Academy!"

This status is undoubtedly astonishing; ranking among the top three in a single era is something not everyone can achieve.

Xiang Feng raised his glass to Bai Ye, drank it all in one gulp, and said, "You have upheld the dignity of our realm. Tomorrow it is our turn to take the stage."

“That’s true. How can we let a junior shine all the way ahead? It would make us seem too cowardly. No matter how difficult it gets, we are still the seniors and will stand up for you.”

Another person arrived, very ordinary and reserved, like an ordinary old man in the world, with yellowish skin and a slightly sickly appearance, as if he were suffering from a serious illness.

"Senior brother..." The little king recognized the person and was very surprised and excited. He took the initiative to get up and pour wine.

"This is our legendary senior brother Chu Shanhe from our Immortal Academy, who once created a legend..." The Little Heavenly King didn't go into too much detail, mainly because there were too many hidden stories behind it.

Chu Shanhe patted the young king on the shoulder and sat down beside him, much to Xiang Feng's surprise.

"Legend has it that you died?"

"Rumor has it that you are dead too. I want to die, but God won't take me..." Chu Shanhe's face was full of desolation, and his eyes were very dark.

"Senior brother." Bai Ye raised his glass and offered a toast, clearly recognizing the man.

Chu Shanhe was a powerful and brilliant hero who rose to prominence 500,000 years ago. He was exceptionally talented and shone brightly in that era, like a comet streaking across the sky. He was known for his overwhelming power and his ability to dominate all others. He and another woman were known as the two peerless beauties.

That person was his Daoist partner. Together they reigned supreme for an era, creating a beautiful tale that was the envy of many.

Perhaps it was the heavens being jealous of talent, or perhaps it was the fearlessness of youth, but in order to obtain a Celestial King's artifact left behind by a Celestial King, Chu Shanhe, at the height of his power, along with his Daoist partner and the six young supreme beings of the time, explored a deserted area in the Nine Heavens. As a result, everyone else died, including his Daoist partner who was just as stunning as him.

It was because of that incident that the man completely lost his ambition. Even his body was affected by the black and white light of life and death in the forbidden zone, and he never recovered.

Even Bai Ye couldn't help but glance at the sickly old man who coughed up blood after just one sip of wine.

"Senior brother, you're still not fully recovered..." the Little Heavenly King gently advised.

"Hahaha, it's nothing. I can not only drink, I can also fight... cough cough..." Chu Shanhe's face turned red, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, staining the jade cup red, but he didn't care. Instead, he was very excited.

"Young man, your health is the most important thing. We may have to fight tomorrow," Xiang Feng said with a smile, without much emotion.

"That's for sure, but it seems not many of your fellow disciples have come. Are they all in seclusion...?"

This was an old man with a full head of slightly curly, red hair, as red as fire. He came from a family of immortals and belonged to the lineage of the Great Burning Heaven Technique. He was also the person Yin Ling often talked about. Although Bai Ye was seeing him for the first time, he had seen Yin Ling's portrait before and recognized him.

The other party had also cultivated in the Immortal Academy. Two hundred thousand years ago, he swept across an era and was invincible. His Great Burning Heaven Technique had an absolute advantage against foreign lands, and he was brought here this time as well.

However, Bai Ye knew this person not because of Yin Ling, but because the Crimson-Haired Divine Lord was a descendant of a foreign land, adopted by the Longevity Clan and treated as their own son.

"Indeed, not many people came..." Even though Xiang Feng had lived for millions of years, he felt a pang of embarrassment.

The entire circle consisted of members from the Immortal Academy, except for him, who was the only one from the Holy Academy. Anyone else would have been completely stunned, especially since the Holy Academy and the Immortal Academy represented two different paths that had been competing with each other since ancient times. Yet, in this generation, not a single member from the Holy Academy had come.

"Today, let's set aside our family backgrounds and personal grudges, and drink." Bai Ye took the initiative to raise his glass.

Some people are not afraid of death; their blood is still hot. But some people are different. There are such people everywhere. You can't expect everyone to risk their lives, but to stand up is courage.

On the distant mountaintop, the three deans seemed to be petrified, sitting cross-legged motionless, quietly watching the opposite mountain peak.

No one dares to underestimate the alien realm. Just on the other side of the passage, there is more than one immortal, not to mention the immortal king who has never been mobilized. When the army arrives, even the younger generation will likely have no chance to grow.

However, what they feared most often came to pass.

Within the fissure behind the Five Fingers Abyss, the alien creatures, who had been relatively still, suddenly roared in unison, their voices excited and resounding, shaking the heavens and earth.

"Welcome back, my lord!"

"what?!"

The three elders stood up in unison, looking in horror at the crack. Faintly visible on an altar, two enormous eyeballs were looking back. One was tens of thousands of feet long and carried a wisp of life, while the other, though only a few thousand feet long, was stained with five-colored blood.

"The Immortal King... My realm has a crippled king?!"

This was horrifying; the two eyeballs merely glanced at the scene before disappearing into the black mist, respectfully surrounded by several ancient figures.

"We've been tricked! Quickly investigate and see what major events happened in this generation back then!"

All the important figures were shocked. Although they had long suspected that the other party might have other motives, no one expected that it would involve a king!

The group on the distant mountaintop were also astonished. Perhaps the only one who remained calm was Bai Ye. He still had two inside him, and if he weren't looking for the key, he would most likely have gone back to the Three Kings.

The two kings are still figuring out where the key is.

Bai Ye wasn't sure if it actually existed. The only thing he knew was that the rotten wooden box wasn't a key and was still at the burial site. However, the kings from other realms had deduced the so-called key before the Immortal Ancient Era, and the possibility of their deduction being wrong was unlikely. The item most likely existed, but whether it referred to the Creation or something else was hard to say.

"We've found it. After the great war ended back then, the alien realm seems to have encountered unimaginable resistance in this world, possibly related to the tremors a few days ago!"

An elder from the Great Crimson Heaven spoke, his gaze fixed on the chaotic region at the border.

"A king encountered resistance? And almost died in this realm..." For a moment, everyone's gaze deepened.

"Could it be that there are still Immortal King-level combatants in our realm?"

Logically, the ancient war between immortals and gods has ended, with immortals dying and kings falling. Who could possibly stop the advance of an immortal king?

For a moment, many people became excited.

However, this was destined to be disappointing. There were kings in the heavens, and quite a few at that, but almost none of them were willing to help.

Chapter 401 Mo Xian

The next day.

The army's banners fluttered, and ahead, a surging black mist had already obscured the Five Fingers Abyss, and even the creatures within that black mist were multiplying.

"What, are you going to send your so-called little immortal king again? A realm can only rely on one person. Even if he manages to hold it up, what can he do? Wu Zhong was terrifying back then, but he still died in the end!" The alien supreme spoke, his voice icy cold.

"Are you scared?!" someone shouted.

"Fear? What a joke! Which of the heroes of our realm didn't crawl out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood? They are not afraid of battle, nor are they afraid of fighting. The strong will only inspire their fighting spirit. If they can't get past their own mental barriers and are afraid before the battle even starts, what kind of path are they pursuing!" A Supreme Being sneered and waved his hand, and someone stepped out.

"I have cultivated the Dao for twenty-two years, and the ancient immortal techniques have just been mastered. I crave a defeat!"

He was an extremely handsome young man with a diamond-shaped scale between his eyebrows. His stride was majestic and awe-inspiring, and he exuded an incredibly rich aura of immortality, like a banished celestial being walking among mortals.

This was simply astonishing. Three flowers of the Great Dao bloomed on his head, entered his body, and then emerged from his head again, transforming into flowers of the Great Dao once more, endlessly nourishing his body in a continuous cycle.

But he spoke in ancient, immortal language, and more importantly, he was not afraid of the suppression of this world.

"The beings of my realm..."

The entire Nine Heavens were in an uproar. That person was too young. Although he was not as powerful as the Little Immortal King, he was two years younger than the Little Immortal King.

"Traitor! You actually pledge allegiance to the enemy, you are unworthy of being a son!" someone immediately cursed.

"This is my first time in this world, so how can I be accused of rebellion? No one has looked down on my identity; they have all taught me with care. Our world values ​​talent, regardless of background. Little Immortal King, you shouldn't let yourself sink into depravity. This world will only lower your standards." The young man looked at Bai Ye and spoke.

"There are many people like me in my world, and there are also those who are jointly trained with the heirs of the imperial family."

"Master, I'll go!" Little Heavenly King said.

"The younger generation is not in a hurry." The Grand Elder remained silent. The other party was doing it on purpose, but fortunately, his Little Immortal King remained unmoved.

But, should he really go? At this moment, even he had his own selfish motives. But the first battle had to be won. Among the younger generation, only this disciple could hold his own. In the end, he nodded and did not stop him.

"Brother Dao, cover for me!" The Little Heavenly King remained serene as he strode forward.

In an instant, the heavens and earth trembled, and immortal light spread in all directions. Both were young people and peerless experts of this realm. The fierce competition made the older generation secretly anxious, because the other party was really strong.

"Ye'er, what do you think..." the First Elder asked solemnly.

Bai Ye sat atop the golden bull, his eyes one black and one white. Inside, two figures moved swiftly, unleashing their full range of techniques, locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle, as if they were deducing a scenario.

"It's a 50/50 chance, Lan'er isn't wild enough."

Everyone around frowned. They all understood what the Little Immortal King meant: he wasn't ruthless enough. Most of the seedlings in this realm were well protected. They would go into seclusion for several years at a time and occasionally go on training. Although they didn't lack combat experience, they did lack the ruthlessness and ferocity of creatures from other realms.

One hundred rounds... two hundred rounds... three hundred rounds!

The two were still locked in a fierce battle, their spirits undiminished and their fighting will only intensifying. They disregarded their injuries and spared no effort in their fight, determined to win the battle quickly.

No one expected that a random person from that realm would make the Little Heavenly King of the Immortal Academy fight so hard.

"boom!"

A figure was forced back, its celestial light dazzling and coalescing into a celestial sword, enveloping its entire body's essence and spirit, forming a deadly strike that would decide the outcome in an instant.

The same was true on the other side. Blood and qi surged from the top of his head, and his fighting spirit materialized, merging with the rhombus-shaped mark and bursting forth with white light, instantly colliding with the immortal sword.

At that moment, that area was dazzling and incomparably brilliant, with the roar of the Nine Nether Beasts, the flight of the Heavenly Phoenix, and beams of white light shooting out.

"Pfft!"

The young superstar had a gaping hole the size of a bowl pierced through his chest, revealing both the front and back, and his neck was almost torn apart.

But in his hands, a celestial sword cleaved open the opponent's head, and nine dragon bodies bit into the opponent's body.

With a bang, blood rained down, bones flew everywhere, and a seed flew away, leaving the entire world in silence.

The young king is back, causing the elder's tightly clenched hands to involuntarily loosen.

"Brother Dao." The Little Heavenly King smiled, his face was very pale, but his spirit and energy were extremely refined.

"Well done, Lan'er." Bai Ye patted his shoulder, not with force, but it made the little king gasp, feeling as if his bones were about to break.

But this was not the end. Someone else stepped up. It was a duel that had taken millions of years to complete, and the person who was going to fight was someone that Bai Ye and the Little Heavenly King both knew: Xiang Feng, whom they had drunk with the night before.

The alien being who fought was a creature that resembled a human, with a row of nine vertical eyes on its forehead. It was cold and powerful, wielding the Nine Heavens Divine Communication at will, and was actually suppressing Xiang Feng in the fight.

Fifty...one hundred...one hundred and seventy-nine...

"Pfft!"

Xiang Feng's skull was shattered by a single claw, and his primordial spirit was unable to escape, resulting in his instant death.

This was undoubtedly astonishing, shaking the entire Nine Heavens faction. Even the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy couldn't help but tremble. That was his first disciple, like his eldest son, yet he had been killed right before his eyes.

The corpse was carelessly tossed aside, and the other party showed no hesitation, turning around and disappearing into the black mist. However, the other party used the magic of this realm throughout the entire process.
