Ao Jun Shows His Might, Zhang Shu's Fierce Reputation!

True Immortal Guangning glanced at the surging Pure Yang energy beneath the earth. He then looked at Ao Jun before him, his demeanor humble yet unyielding. "The refinement of the treasure is open to discussion. It is certain that Divine Lord Guangyuan is here. In the world, besides Divine Lord Guangyuan of the Divine Censure Office, who else can make this 'Heavenly Pivot War God' willingly protect the Dharma outside?"

This thought came to mind.

True Immortal Guangning shook his head. "So be it. In that case, I'll just observe how things unfold."

Settle your mind.

True Immortal Guangning smiled at Ao Jun and said, "Since it is Divine Lord Guangyuan refining a treasure, how dare I disturb him?"

As he spoke, he stood to the side, neither leaving nor making any other move.

Ao Jun felt slightly displeased.

However, he also knew that with such a treasure before him, the fact that the True Immortal Guangning did not make a move was already a concession, and it would be unrealistic to expect him to drive him away.

So he ignored it.

Taking advantage of its location, the Mount Yu Sect sent True Immortal Guangning as the first to arrive.

Not long after.

From the east, Black Wind swept in again, and without stopping, it crashed down towards the source of Pure Yang beneath the earth.

Unlike the True Immortal Guangning, this person intends to forcibly seize the Immortal Artifact!

"How dare you!"

Enraged by this, Ao Jun immediately stepped forward and unleashed a divine light. The light was incredibly fast, striking directly into the Black Wind as soon as it appeared, ignoring Black Wind obstruction and hitting the figure in the center.

The Black Wind stopped.

True Immortal Guangning stared intently, "Blackfiend Old Devil!"

He was instantly enraged!

This Blackfiend Old Devil was born into the Spirit Communion Limitless Gate. He was ordered to gather the remnants of the Bloodspring Demon Sect, occupy the eastern border of the East Sinking Continent, and confront the Mount Yu Sect. His 'Blackfiend Soul-Severing Sand' was extremely powerful. The Mount Yu Tongxuan Ancestor was tricked and was hit by the Blackfiend Old Devil with this treasure, which caused him to lose a lot of his lifespan and die a few hundred years earlier.

The enmity between them was considerable.

Upon seeing the Blackfiend Old Devil appear, True Immortal Guangning glared and was about to step forward to fight.

But what I saw was—

The 'Heavenly Pivot War God' raised his hand and unleashed a divine light, ignoring the 'Blackfiend Soul-Severing Sand' that the Blackfiend Old Devil had used to protect himself, instantly striking the Blackfiend Old Devil so badly that he stood there dumbfounded.

The next moment.

Ao Jun lunged forward, thrusting out his red-tasseled spear.

Clang!

It struck the Blackfiend Old Devil between the eyebrows, producing a metallic clang, sending him flying a great distance, with even a trace of blood appearing between his eyebrows.

"The Soul-Severing Divine Radiance!"

True Immortal Guangning's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately stopped in his tracks. He had long heard of the powerful Divine Abilities of the 'Heavenly Pivot War God' of the East Submerging Continent, but had never seen him in person. He believed he had the strength to fight him.

But seeing it today, I realize how formidable it is.

"Divine light is sharp."

"The Blackfiend Old Devil has experienced several Windfire Tribulation, and has stayed in the Tribulation Transcendence Realm for 20,000 years. His strength is unfathomable, yet he could not withstand it."

True Immortal Guangning clicked his tongue in amazement.

According to his estimation, he was roughly equal to the Blackfiend Old Devil, or even inferior to him.

I was relieved that I hadn't made a move.

There was no time to think about it.

Let's look further ahead.

"What a bug!"

The Blackfiend Old Devil was prepared for the sneak attack, but he still fell for it and was subdued by Ao Jun's 'Soul-Severing Divine Radiance'. Fortunately, he had already survived several Windfire Tribulation, forging Ice Flesh and Jade Bones, making his physical body extremely strong.

Only with proper precautions could he withstand Ao Jun's shot.

However, this shot also caused him minor injuries.

He lost all face.

"Taste the power of my Soul-Slaying Sand!"

Shocked and furious, the Blackfiend Old Devil retreated rapidly. He reached for a yellow pouch at his waist, muttered incantations, and with a shake, released all the Blackfiend Soul-Severing Sand he had refined.

Waaaaah!

Immediately, dark clouds gathered, a thick fog descended, flying swords lost their luster, and thunder and fire were ineffective. A mass of black energy, spanning more than ten miles in radius, rushed towards Ao Jun like a whirlwind.

"A sinister magical Law Artifact, trying to make a fool of itself!"

Ao Jun roared and swept his red-tasseled spear across the ground. Like a rainbow after the rain, it stirred up gusts of wind that landed on the Soul-Sinking Sand, causing half of the black energy to dissipate.

At the same time, one hand forms a mudra.

The Six-Yang Azure-Spirit Demonbane Armor on his body radiated six kinds of sunlight, protecting Ao Jun as he crashed into the black mist. He rushed forward like lightning, sweeping his spear horizontally.

With a couple of turns, the dark clouds dispersed and the black mist vanished, completely erasing the treasure that the Blackfiend Old Devil had painstakingly crafted over many years, turning it into smoke and scattering away.

His cultivation of the 'Soul-Severing Divine Radiance' is many times more advanced than the Blackfiend Old Devil's Soul-Fallen Sand.

Its mysteries are easily seen through at a glance, and a few sweeps can instantly clear them away.

"Puff!"

With his divine Law Artifact destroyed, the Blackfiend Old Devil immediately coughed up a mouthful of black blood.

Countless years of hard work have vanished into thin air, and he is so enraged that he points at Ao Jun and opens his mouth to curse.

Ao Jun didn't care about any of that.

"Prepare to die!"

One shot after another was fired at the Blackfiend Old Devil.

Bang bang bang!

Bang bang bang!

Bang bang bang!

The Blackfiend Old Devil fought his way through, but his treasures were destroyed, and his other methods ultimately fell short. Ao Jun, on the other hand, had accumulated a wealth of combat experience fighting demons from all directions over the years.

It is utterly unstoppable.

One or two bullets landed on him, and the Blackfiend Old Devil remained unfazed. But when ten or a hundred bullets rained down like a storm of pear blossoms, even his Tribulation Transcendence body could not withstand it.

"Puff!"

He spat out another mouthful of blood, his injuries already quite severe. The Blackfiend Old Devil dared not continue, his black robe billowing as he instantly transformed into a streak of dark light, leaping out of the circle and ceasing his pursuit.

They vanished beyond the heavens and disappeared.

Before it disappeared, an angry voice could be heard. "Ao Jun, you destroyed my treasure today, you'll pay for this in the future!"

Ao Jun put away his gun and stood there.

He scoffed inwardly, completely ignoring the clamor. Over the years, he had slain countless demons, including many at the True Immortal level, and had offended many in the process. If he were afraid, how could he have earned such a formidable reputation as the 'Heavenly Pivot War God'?!

"Heavenly Pivot Marshal truly deserves the title of 'War God'."

"This Blackfiend Old Devil is quite a powerful figure. His 'Blackfiend Soul-Severing Sand' is extremely insidious and difficult to deal with. I didn't expect that he couldn't even last three or five rounds against the Marshal!"

True Immortal Guangning was astonished by Ao Jun's strength and couldn't help but praise him.

This comes from the bottom of my heart.

The Blackfiend Old Devil was incredibly powerful and relied on his insidious treasures to run rampant. Even the True Immortal Guangning dared not confront him directly. Back then, the True Immortal Tongxuan suffered a great loss at the hands of the Blackfiend Old Devil.

Result.

However, when it fell into Ao Jun's hands, it was dealt with as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.

True Immortal Guangning finally had a complete understanding of the strength of this 'Heavenly Pivot War God'.

"You flatter me, senior."

Ao Jun responded casually, but he was not at ease inside.

This calamity is no small matter.

True Immortal like the Blackfiend Old Devil are merely appetizers, utterly insignificant.

What's truly terrifying—

"He's Earth Immortal!"

The Earth Immortal, who overwhelmed Ancient Sorrow, was an unshakeable supreme power throughout the ages. Even True Immortal would not dare to show the slightest disrespect to him, let alone engage in combat.

Ao Jun felt heavy-hearted.

His gaze shifted, then suddenly turned to the south.

Two figures stood on the horizon to the south. Even though they were far apart, Ao Jun could see them clearly. One of them wore a white robe embroidered with Golden Lotus, with a beautiful figure and charming face. The other looked old and leaned on a Huoyun cane; she was an old woman with a hunched back.

"Golden Lotus Cult Master".

"Firecloud Old Mother".

Ao Jun snorted coldly in his heart.

One of these two is the leader of the Golden Lotus Heretical Cult in the East Submerging Continent, and the other is the leader of the Spirit Communion Limitless Gate, who is stationed in the East Submerging Continent and opposes his Heavenly Pivot Prefecture, the Firecloud Old Mother.

They are both located in the East Submerging Continent.

Ao Jun had countless dealings and battles with the two of them.

Upon seeing the two arrive together, Ao Jun's face immediately darkened.

But then the Golden Lotus Cult Master came closer, smiled at Ao Jun, and said in a coquettish voice, "The Heavenly Pivot War God is so majestic. Even Fellow Daoist Hei Sha could not withstand his sharpness. It seems that my trip with Firecloud Granny this time will be in vain."

The Firecloud Old Mother stood beside the Golden Lotus Cult Master, her wrinkled face smiling as she looked at Ao Jun.

Ao Jun is indeed powerful, but with Immortal Artifact before them, a battle to determine who is superior is inevitable. Ao Jun alone is far from enough to make these two great demons fear him to the point of backing down.

The Firecloud Old Mother gripped her Huoyun Cane tightly, while the Golden Lotus Cult Master secretly formed hand seals.

They were about to make their move.

Just then—

"Your Majesty is refining a treasure!"

"How dare you two demons act so presumptuously here?!"

Suddenly, a furious shout came from below, a familiar voice. The Firecloud Old Mother paused in her withered hand holding her cane, and looked down to see a general carrying a Scarlet Gourd striding towards her, landing beside Ao Jun.

"This is--"

When the True Immortal Guangning saw the newcomer, he couldn't help but frown. He searched his memory thoroughly but couldn't find a single piece of information about this person.

The Firecloud Old Mother' expression changed slightly, and she immediately stopped her attack, chuckling, "So Marshal Zhang Shu is also here. I almost acted rashly."

The Golden Lotus Cult Master, who had been secretly plotting and preparing to unleash her power, quickly concealed her intentions.

"Fire Crow Marshal!"

True Immortal Guangning was unaware of this, but she knew that the person before her was far more renowned than Ao Jun within a small circle. Many top True Immortal who roamed the heavens would find him troublesome.

She and the Firecloud Old Mother were stationed in the East Submerging Continent, fighting against one enemy with two against one, yet they rarely provoked the Heavenly Pivot Prefecture, precisely because they had witnessed Zhang Shu's prowess.

The Firecloud Old Mother had suffered greatly at Zhang Shu's hands, which is why she was so wary of him.

"Zhang Shu?"

"Azure-Spirit Prestige-Raising Five-Thunder Marshal?!"

When True Immortal Guangning heard Firecloud Old Mother speak, he immediately realized what was going on. Although he had never met Zhang Shu, nor had he ever heard of Zhang Shu's reputation for fighting against the top True Immortal in the heavens, he had heard of him before. He knew that Divine Lord Guangyuan of the Divine Censure Office had a loyal general who had broken through to become True Immortal long ago.

Then, the Divine Lord Guangyuan went to the Sorrow River Dragon Palace to obtain a first-rank divine position for this True Immortal subordinate.

This must be Zhang Shu.

Zhang Shu appeared.

The Golden Lotus Cult Master and the Firecloud Old Mother were both wary and dared not act recklessly. Guangyuan True Immortal's heart was filled with turmoil. "What a Five Thunder Marshal! These two demons were not afraid of the 'Heavenly Pivot War God,' but they are so wary of this one?"

Thoughts flow.

I dare not entertain even the slightest wild thought again.

Zhang Shu remained silent, his face cold. The Golden Lotus Cult Master and the Firecloud Old Mother exchanged a glance, each keeping quiet and not daring to make the first move. However, the aura below was growing increasingly powerful, brimming with Pure Yang energy, undoubtedly Immortal Artifact. Neither of them wanted to retreat easily, so they stood aside, waiting for their opportunity.

"Ignore it for now."

Ao Jun transmitted his voice.

Although the True Immortal who have arrived now have impressive titles, they are mere small fry compared to the Earth Immortal who are about to arrive. It's not worth using Immortal Artifact to deal with them, but not using Immortal Artifact would require a lot of effort. It's better to observe and wait, conserving strength and energy until the real threat arrives.

"Um."

Zhang Shu nodded slightly, also aware of the implications.

Then.

Above the clear sky.

Ao Jun and Zhang Shu.

Golden Lotus Cult Master, Firecloud Old Mother.

The True Immortal Guangning.

The three parties are separated, clearly distinct, which is a rare sight.

True Immortal gathered in the East Sinking Continent and East Submerging Continent.

As time goes by.

The True Immortal of the East Aspect Continent also arrived one after another. With Ao Jun and Zhang Shu as protectors, and having heard that there was also a Divine Lord Guangyuan inside, the True Immortal dared not make a move rashly. They could only watch as the energy beneath the earth was released and became increasingly powerful, and they waited for an opportunity to act.

In the blink of an eye.

Three days have passed.
