Too Wasteful, Swan Song! No one knew who it was, but someone trembled as they forced out a single word.
This word, like a curse, struck straight at the hearts of every Immortal King.
"Emperor!"
This was a true Emperor!
He had crossed endless chaos, crossed endless time, and descended here in person!
That realization plunged every Immortal King into utter terror.
An Emperor had actually come in person!
"Ah—!!!"
One Immortal King could no longer endure that overwhelming terror and let out a heart-rending scream.
He whirled around and, without hesitation, leaped beyond the Emperor's might shrouding the Samsara Ferry, hurling himself toward the endless sword light!

Sizzle—
His body, Immortal Soul, and consciousness seemed to melt into the sword light in an instant, utterly vanishing!
An Immortal King had fallen just like that!

The man in gray slowly raised his right hand and lightly tapped with a fingertip.
Buzz—!
Myriad streams of radiance flowed.
A gentle force appeared out of nowhere around that Immortal King's body, as though an invisible power had pierced through time and reincarnation, forcibly dragging him back and slamming him heavily onto the deck of the Samsara Ferry.
The man in gray withdrew his finger and spoke calmly. His voice remained as even as ever, yet carried an unquestionable majesty.
"To die here would be far too wasteful."
The moment his words fell.
Boom—!!!
The vast world of sword light collapsed with a thunderous crash!
Endless golden radiance receded like a tide. The motionless sword lights instantly vanished without a trace.
Time, which had been frozen, began to flow once more.
Endless currents of chaos surged in.
Lu Qingyun and the Immortal Kings were stunned for a moment,
