Chinese animation: Starting with Bad Guys

The next moment, his body radiated multicolored divine light once again, but this time it was no longer to fight against anyone, but to reveal his magnificent peacock form!

With wings spread wide, they blot out the sky!

Immediately, he transformed into a dazzling stream of five-colored light, and without any hesitation, he took the initiative and resolutely rushed into the Myriad Immortals Formation, where the battle cries shook the heavens and the murderous aura soared to the sky!

His choice is clear.

From this day forward, Kong Xuan, the son of Phoenix Ancestor and the first peacock of the creation of the world, officially came under Qin Chuan's command!

Chapter 27 The Fall of the Boundless Immortal

Within the Immortal Slaughtering Formation, malevolent energy surged, yet a strange silence descended upon it due to Zhunti's sudden disappearance.

The Taoist priest's face, which was already etched with sorrow, now looked even more bitter, as if it could drip bitter herbs.

He gazed at the void where Zhunti had disappeared, then looked at the composed Qin Chuan opposite him, and let out a long sigh, his voice filled with endless weariness and a hint of realization:

“Junior brother, oh junior brother… You’ve spent your life scheming and trying to guide those with ‘destined connections,’ but you never imagined that the mantis would stalk the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Today, you’ve been outmaneuvered to the core…”

He instantly realized that the Xuanming Black Hole was not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but a hidden trap that Qin Chuan had planted on Kong Xuan long ago!

From the moment Qin Chuan showed leniency towards Kong Xuan and even tried to recruit him, he probably already knew that Zhunti was "happy to see talent" and would definitely convert people. He set up this scheme and was just waiting for Zhunti to walk into it!

The thought of his junior brother being trapped in that strange black hole from which even saints could not easily escape made the Guide Daoist's heart tighten.

He and Zhunti were born together at the beginning of this world, sought the Dao together, established their sects and became saints together. Through countless years of support, their friendship has long surpassed that of ordinary fellow disciples.

He suppressed his anxiety, faced Qin Chuan, and spoke in an unprecedentedly gentle tone, even with a hint of pleading:

“Fellow Daoist Qin Chuan, my junior brother was reckless and offended you this time. If you are willing to show mercy and release Zhunti, our Western Sect is willing to immediately withdraw from this great calamity and no longer interfere in the affairs of the East. What do you say?”

In order to rescue Zhunti, he did not hesitate to give up his previous plan to recruit "three thousand mortals" and took the initiative to withdraw from this Investiture of the Gods calamity.

However, upon hearing this, Qin Chuan merely smiled slightly, shook his head, and spoke in a calm yet undeniable tone:

"Fellow Daoist Zhunti is unconventional and acts without restraint. It would be better for him to sit quietly in the Xuanming Black Cave for a while longer to temper his mind. Releasing him now may cause future troubles."

He knew that Zhunti was the most shameless and troublesome of the saints in this world. If he were to easily release him now that he had made this grudge, he would become like a maggot clinging to his bone, haunting him endlessly in the future.

Now that we've captured it, why should we let it return to the mountains?

Zhunti is definitely going to be imprisoned!

When the Guide heard Qin Chuan's almost mocking yet uncompromising refusal, a clear anger finally appeared on the perpetually sorrowful face of the Daoist!

The originally peaceful Buddhist light around him also faintly revealed a fierce and stern aura, like the wrathful eyes of a Vajra!

Since words are useless, then only... actions will tell!

"Hahahaha! Excellent! What a brilliant Xuanming Black Hole! What a brilliant way to lure the enemy into a trap!"

Upon seeing this, the Tongtian Sect Leader couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh heartily!

Looking at the predicament of losing a saint in an instant, he felt that most of the pent-up anger in his chest had dissipated.

"Before the battle even officially begins, the other side is already missing that scoundrel Zhunti! Now it's two against three, plus my Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, let's see how arrogant you can still be!"

He was in high spirits and felt that his chances of winning had greatly increased.

The laughter abruptly ceased. The Tongtian Sect Leader's eyes sharpened, and he said no more. He pressed his fingers together like a sword, gently placing them on the Qingping Sword, and uttered a low shout:

"Clang—!" The Zhuxian Sword rang out, tearing through the sky!

"Clang—!" The Immortal Slayer Sword roared, and the sea of ​​blood surged!

"Buzz—!" The Immortal-Trapping Sword trembled, and the void collapsed!

"Chih—!" The Immortal-Slaying Sword rang out, and all laws were annihilated!

Within the Immortal Slaughtering Formation, four terrifying sword cries, distinct yet equally capable of tearing apart the very soul of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, tolled simultaneously like death knells from the primordial era!

The four swords standing at the four gates of the formation, namely Zhuxian, Luxian, Xianxian, and Juexian, suddenly unleashed hundreds of millions of terrifying sword energies capable of slaughtering saints and destroying the Dao!

Sword energy stretched for billions of miles, weaving together to form a deathly domain that annihilated everything, firmly locking down the three saints, Jieyin, Taishang, and Yuanshi!

A murderous aura soared to the heavens, and the laws of nature collapsed!

The true power of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation was revealed at this moment!

The expressions of the three sages, Jieyin, Taishang, and Yuanshi, instantly became extremely solemn.

They knew better than anyone else that the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation could not be broken by anyone other than the Four Sages, and that was no exaggeration!

This formation is divided into four gates: Slaughter, Slaughter, Traps, and Annihilation. Each gate is guarded by an incomparably fierce sword. Only when four saints work together, each breaking through one gate and taking down the sword, can the formation be broken.

With one less person, this formation is almost impossible to break!

Laozi frowned slightly. Although he possessed the supreme divine power of "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones" and could create three clones with immense magical power, these clones were still just clones and not true Primordial Saints. They could not withstand the backlash from the main body of the Four Swords of Zhuxian and were completely unable to replace the fourth saint in breaking the formation.

For a moment, the three supreme saints were trapped by this number one killing formation in the primordial world, and did not know how to make a move!

"Since you are hesitant and unsure how to break the formation, then I will help you make up your minds!"

Seeing the three saints hesitate, the Tongtian Sect Leader laughed loudly, and the Qingping Sword in his hand suddenly trembled!

"BOOM—!!"

A magnificent sword light, embodying the Dao of Intercepting Heaven and containing the Tongtian Sect Master's pent-up anger and resentment towards the Chan Sect and unjust fate across countless time and space, erupted from the core of the Zhuxian Formation, tearing apart the boundless universe and ignoring the distance of time and space, directly slashing towards the Primordial Heavenly Venerable!

This sword strike seemed poised to settle an ancient feud!

"Tongtian! How dare you be so insolent!"

The Heavenly Venerable of Primordial Beginning's expression darkened, and the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi in his arms flew up automatically, radiating chaotic and mysterious light. As the Daoist rhyme flowed, it was neither fast nor slow, but it was extremely precise in the sky, blocking the Qingping Sword Light that was enough to reopen the world!

"clang--!!!!!"

A deafening roar, seemingly the creation of the world, which only a sage could fully perceive, erupted at the level of laws!

The entire world of gods and demons was violently shaken!

The four continents, countless blessed lands, immortal mountains and spiritual veins trembled wildly, and tiny cracks appeared in space, as if they were about to collapse completely at any moment!

Regardless of their location or cultivation level, all living beings felt immense terror at this moment, involuntarily looking towards the direction of the Immortal Slaughtering Formation, their souls filled with awe and fear of the supreme power!

Within the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, the disciples on both sides, who were fiercely fighting, were shaken by the aftershocks of this clash between sages, causing their minds to tremble, their blood to surge, and their vision to blur.

Looking at that immense power that could easily shake the universe and restore order, and then comparing it to the battles that they themselves fought with all their might, seemingly intense but confined to a small space, an unprecedented sense of powerlessness and frustration welled up in their hearts.

"The majesty of a sage... has reached such a level..."

"In the eyes of a sage, is our struggle like ants pecking at each other, utterly meaningless?"

For a moment, many people stopped what they were doing and fell into a deep confusion about their own path and the value of combat.

However, in that moment when everyone was stunned, a fierce killing intent suddenly erupted, like a spark on an ice field!

"Now!"

A fierce glint flashed in Nezha's eyes. He had been staring intently at Wuliang Xianweng, waiting for the moment when everyone would be stunned by the clash between the saints!

"You old bastard! Take this!"

The Hun Tian Ling (a magical ribbon) emerged like a crimson dragon from its cave, instantly tearing through the void and coiling towards the Boundless Immortal Elder!

At the same time, the Wind and Fire Wheels beneath his feet burst into flames, his figure flashed like lightning, and the Fire-Tipped Spear in his hand gathered all his magic power and boundless hatred, turning into a cold star that pierced straight into the back of the Boundless Immortal!

"Huh?! You brat, how dare you launch a sneak attack!"

The Boundless Immortal felt a chill run down his spine, instantly waking up in a rage:

"If I had known this would happen, I should have refined you along with Chen Tang Pass back then!"

His body was radiant with immortal light, and he was about to use his Great Luo power to defend himself when, unexpectedly, two more fierce and incomparable killing intents came from his left and right sides!

"You shameless old thief! Prepare to die! Pay for the lives of the innocent people of Chentang Pass!"

It was Jinzha and Muzha!

They also hated Wuliang Xianweng to the bone, and seeing that their third brother Nezha was the first to attack, they did not hesitate to immediately go all out!

The Wu Hook Twin Swords and the Demon-Subduing Pestle transformed into two golden rainbows, sealing off the Boundless Immortal's escape route!

"Master, don't panic! Your disciple is here!"

Upon seeing this, Crane Boy and Deer Boy immediately shouted and flashed to the left and right of Immortal Wuliang, pretending to help their master defend.

However, at the very moment of contact with Jinzha and Muzha's attacks, the jade ruler in Hetong's hand "accidentally" slipped, and the cloud beneath Lutong's feet "just happened" to dissipate, creating a barely perceptible yet fatal gap in their defenses!

"you……!"

The Boundless Immortal was startled, instantly realizing something was wrong!

But it was too late!

Just as the old power was gone and the new power had not yet been generated, and at the very moment he was "unintentionally" harmed by his disciple, the void around him rippled like water!

A golden divine light, as brilliant as the rising sun, suddenly shone from the void and instantly enveloped the Boundless Immortal!

Wuliang Immortal felt his whole body stiffen, as if he were bound by invisible shackles, and even the flow of his magic power stopped for a moment!

He looked up in horror and saw that not far away, Yang Jian's divine eye on his forehead was fully open, coldly staring at him!

"Yang Jian! You...!"

The Boundless Immortal Elder could hardly believe his eyes!

Why would this disciple, the head of the third generation of the Chan Sect, who was highly regarded by the Primordial Heavenly Lord and was only half a step away from becoming a Great Luo Immortal, attack him?!

However, his astonishment and questioning were forever frozen in that moment.

"Pfft—!"

Seizing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to immobilize him, Nezha's Fire-Tipped Spear pierced through his Dharma body without any hindrance!

The raging flames and destructive energy surged in instantly, frantically shattering his primordial spirit!

Immediately afterwards, Jinzha's Wu Hook Sword and Muzha's Demon-Subduing Pestle also crashed down, slamming heavily onto his immortal body!

"Do not--!!!"

The Boundless Immortal let out a desperate roar filled with resentment and disbelief. His Dharma body shattered inch by inch, and his primordial spirit, like a candle in the wind, quickly dimmed and disintegrated!

He died without understanding why Yang Jian had betrayed him, why his disciple had "failed," and why the assassination plot against him was so precise and deadly!

This once powerful and influential disciple of the Chan Sect, who refined demon cores and slaughtered countless lives, ultimately did not even have the chance to have his true spirit enshrined on the Investiture of the Gods list. He was completely annihilated, his body and soul dissipating into the rolling baleful aura of the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.
