Yuanjun's Fatal Tribulation, Myriad Immortals Besiege Kunlun

"Bihai Spirit Sealing Saliva?"

"And you think you're worthy of poisoning a Quasi-Saint?"

Queen Mother of the West scoffed mockingly at Bihai Yuanjun's poison.

As she spoke, Queen Mother of the West pressed down harder, crushing several more of Bihai Yuanjun's ribs. "Not to mention my Quasi-Saint cultivation, even the Plain Cloud Boundary Banner bestowed by the Dao Ancestor renders me immune to all techniques."

"Pfft..."

Crushed beneath Queen Mother of the West's tiger paw, Bihai Yuanjun spat out several more mouthfuls of blood.

Seeing that Bihai Yuanjun beside him had already suffered grave injuries, Ziyang Zhenren hurriedly said, "Senior Queen Mother of the West, please show mercy."

Queen Mother of the West glared with her tiger eyes. Knowing he was in the wrong, Ziyang Zhenren explained, "The two of us were at fault this time. Please consider that East King Duke and you were both personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor as leaders of the immortals. You must not damage the bond between you two."

"Hahaha!"

After hearing this, Queen Mother of the West threw back her head and laughed. Then, with a forceful press of her tiger paw, countless strands of Golden Metal Qi shredded Bihai Yuanjun's lower body to pieces.

"A bond? What bond do I have with him? You two harmed me today, and you still have the nerve to ask me for mercy?"

"If I do not go to East King Duke's Penglai Island and demand an explanation, how can I live up to my title as Head of Female Immortals?"

Watching her body be utterly destroyed, Bihai Yuanjun had long since lost her former vitality.

She cast Queen Mother of the West a faint look and said with difficulty, "Q-Queen Mother of the West, this matter... was... was my idea alone. His Majesty originally told the two of us to come discuss it with you. It was I..."

"It was I who liked King..."

Before Bihai Yuanjun could finish, Queen Mother of the West directly crushed her head beneath her tiger paw.

"Too much nonsense!"

Queen Mother of the West had no patience to listen to Bihai Yuanjun's words. With one forceful stomp, she crushed both her body and true spirit into pulp.

Then she coldly said to Ziyang Zhenren, "I will spare your life. Go back and tell East King Duke that one day, I will come to demand an explanation from him personally."

After saying that, Queen Mother of the West flashed back into her cave.

Ziyang Zhenren stared blankly at everything before him, unsure what to do for a moment.

"Why did it have to come to this?"

Although Ziyang Zhenren knew that Bihai Yuanjun had feelings for East King Duke, he also knew that East King Duke held affection for Bihai Yuanjun.

Otherwise, how could he have allowed Bihai Yuanjun to become an elder of the Immortal Court?

Yet there was no concept of Dao companions in this world. Neither of them had ever spoken their hearts to the other, leading to today's tragedy.

"Sigh..."

With a wave of his hand, Ziyang Zhenren collected Bihai Yuanjun's shattered remains, sighed, and departed.

When Nan Ji saw Queen Mother of the West emerge, he had initially thought his Duo Duo had grown up.

But once that familiar voice and familiar temperament appeared, who else could it have been but that irritable tigress from the back mountains of Kunlun?

Thus, as he watched Queen Mother of the West turn and return, Nan Ji found himself drenched in cold sweat.

Nan Ji secretly thought, Too ruthless. Those who know would say she is the Head of Female Immortals; those who do not might think she is some demonic fiend. Still, her fury at being poisoned is understandable.

Perhaps frightened by Queen Mother of the West, Nan Ji did not dare leave immediately.

He feared that Queen Mother of the West would mistake him for an accomplice and stomp him to death as well.

When Nan Ji nervously returned to Xuanqing Peak, he found the entire Kunlun Mountain shrouded in dark clouds, with thunder rumbling.

"Queen Mother of the West, come out and face this king!"

East King Duke's voice came from high above.

The moment Nan Ji heard it, he secretly thought, Why has East King Duke come to Kunlun?

As soon as East King Duke finished speaking, Nan Ji saw a streak of light shoot into the sky. When it came to a halt, it was Queen Mother of the West.

"East King Duke, I did not go to your Penglai Island, yet you came to Kunlun Mountain instead."

Queen Mother of the West immediately wanted to pounce on East King Duke.

But when she stretched her tiger paw forward, it was blocked by an invisible barrier of air.

"Hahaha! Queen Mother of the West, you slaughtered cultivators of my immortal estate for no reason. Today, I, East King Duke, have come to demand an explanation."

East King Duke's figure flickered in and out of sight amid the clouds as he spoke to Queen Mother of the West.

Queen Mother of the West immediately transformed into human form. With a wave of her arm, the Plain Cloud Boundary Banner appeared in her hand.

Grasping the great banner with both hands, she continuously swung it at the dark clouds where East King Duke stood. In an instant, dense white mist swept across the heavens toward the cloudbank he occupied.

Just as the white mist was about to reach the clouds, countless cultivators suddenly appeared within them.

They stood in groups of several, each forming different hand seals. Using the dark clouds as cover, they actually blocked Queen Mother of the West's attack.

"Hahaha! This is the Myriad Immortals Formation, set up by tens of thousands of cultivators from my immortal estate. I ask Fellow Daoist Queen Mother of the West to offer some guidance."

East King Duke stood amid the clouds and laughed loudly.

In the past, he naturally would not have dared to offend this Head of Female Immortals, who had also been personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor.

But now that Di Jun was suppressing him and he could not obtain the Ren Water Immortal Peach, he brought out the Myriad Immortals Formation he had kept hidden for so long.

This time, he was not merely avenging Bihai Yuanjun. More importantly, he wanted all the races of the Great Desolation to witness the terror of the Myriad Immortals Formation.

Thus, although East King Duke spoke politely, he continuously waved a command flag while standing within the dark clouds.

The independent cultivators of the East Sea Immortal Court immediately followed East King Duke's orders in an orderly fashion.

Countless cultivators instantly appeared amid the dark clouds, weaving through the cloud layers in formation while making different hand seals.

For a time, innumerable wind formations, fire formations, lightning formations, and sword formations appeared within the clouds. These formations then evolved into attacks of different attributes and rained down upon Queen Mother of the West.

Queen Mother of the West primarily cultivated her body, and aside from the Plain Cloud Boundary Banner, she possessed few offensive treasures.

Thus, she could only leap and dodge back and forth.

But with countless large formations nested within smaller ones, their offensive power far surpassed that of an ordinary Quasi-Saint. Queen Mother of the West was tormented into a wretched state.

"How utterly shameless!"

Queen Mother of the West's hair had already come undone. She panted heavily as she spoke.

"This is the strength of my immortal estate. What does Fellow Daoist Queen Mother of the West think?"

As East King Duke spoke, he infused his voice with magic power, causing his words to spread throughout the Great Desolation.

What he wanted was to use Queen Mother of the West to establish the Immortal Court's might.

"Tsk, truly shameless."

"You're a male cultivator leading tens of thousands of people against one female cultivator. How thick must your skin be?"

Nan Ji sat on the stone steps outside his Changsheng Hall and could not help grumbling.

Yet Nan Ji truly did not dare go up there. The Myriad Immortals Formation was no joke; one misstep and he would be dead.

But at that moment, Queen Mother of the West seemed unable to hold on much longer. Her leaps and evasions grew increasingly chaotic.

In the end, Queen Mother of the West slipped up and was struck by attacks from several hundred formations, crashing violently into a mountain wall of Kunlun Mountain.

Crackle~

One of the lightning formations unleashed a thunderbolt that directly destroyed the mountain path of Xuanqing Peak.

"Hiss... my Five-Colored Glazed Stone!" Nan Ji cried out in anguish at the sight.

Seeing this, East King Duke no longer concealed his intentions and directly gave the order, "Myriad Immortals, heed my command! Queen Mother of the West has defied the Dao Ancestor's decree and lacks the ability to lead the female immortals of the Great Desolation. Quickly set up the killing formation!"

This was also part of his plan.

The Dao Ancestor had once declared: East King Duke would be the Head of Male Immortals, and Queen Mother of the West would be the Head of Female Immortals.

Yet the Dao Ancestor had also permitted the establishment of the Demon Court. Therefore, he wanted Queen Mother of the West dead, so that he could rightfully command the female immortals.

And become the true emperor of the Great Desolation!

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

After hearing East King Duke's command, the Myriad Immortals shouted from within the clouds. Their voices converged into a great wave of sound that spread in every direction.

"This..."

Nan Ji found it somewhat unbearable to watch. He glanced toward the palace where his elders resided, but there was no response. He also knew that he had no chance of victory against the Myriad Immortals Formation.

Yet when he recalled how Queen Mother of the West had once swung Kunpeng around for him and helped him escape danger in the East Sea, it truly seemed unreasonable not to help her now.

At that very moment, a ripple of spatial law spread out, and Duo Duo Houtu was the first to emerge from it.

"Duo Duo?"

Nan Ji looked at the arriving Houtu in confusion.

Houtu wore an anxious expression as she shouted at Nan Ji, "Big brother, why are you still sitting here? She is Niu Niu!"
