An era has passed, and another Immortal King has issued a decree... It's like a Lunhui, and who knows what the ending will be.

Faced with the Immortal King's decree, the Remnant Immortal took it very seriously. The Immortal Palace had already prepared a ceremony, setting up an altar, burning incense, and offering solemn prayers. Some even sprinkled water to purify the earth.

The so-called splashing of water was actually the primordial divine elixir. The moment it landed, colorful clouds surged, and lotus flowers bloomed in the Void, peaceful and sacred. Wisps of smoke rose, resonating with the Dao.

The Remnant Immortal knelt down, but this kneeling was before Immortal King, not before Human Dao Supreme, so the Remnant Immortal did not feel much humiliation.

The Immortal Domain is strictly hierarchical, even more so than the mortal realm. According to the Immortal King's decree, ordinary True Immortal must kneel in obeisance. True Immortal with the Immortal King's family behind them are ranked, and even those of lower rank cannot escape this grand ceremony.

(There are many intricacies involved here. For example, the Flawed Immortal King. In the eyes of True Immortal and human beings, this is undoubtedly Immortal King- level existence. However, in the eyes of stronger Immortal King, the former only has the title of king but not the substance of a king, and generally does not take such an existence seriously. The Immortal Domain Flawed Immortal King's Council of Kings.)

The Remnant Immortal had long lost his immortal status Lower Realm the Desolate Antiquity Domain and was no different from the beings of the Nine Heavens. Naturally, he had to kneel before the decree of the Immortal King.

"The sinful immortal humbly receives the king's decree!" The man in white knelt on both knees, awaiting the reading of the decree.

"Buzz!"

The decrees arose in a flurry, with Xian Dao runes gathering and surging. A mark could be seen solidifying in the Divine Radiance, as pure as Yue Hua, as radiant as the present moment, dazzling to the extreme.

In the increasingly imposing arena, Su Yu unfolded the decree, as if a Immortal King had bowed down upon him, majestic and sacred. The Daoist voice seemed to descend from the Thirty-Three Heavens, cold and piercing.

" Bronze Palace Immortal of the Desolate Antiquity Domain, you fled the battlefield during the Immortal Ancient Era. You should have been executed, but considering your arduous cultivation, you were banished to the mortal Lower Realm to help revive the Daoist traditions of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Unexpectedly, you, Remnant Immortal, have been tyrannical and greedy, defaming the descendants of those King, and were branded as Sin Blood. You besieged and killed Kun Peng, and your crimes are too numerous to list. You are hereby ordered to be imprisoned in the Immortal Domain for trial!"

In a sense, this was indeed a decree from the Immortal King.

His future self stands in the River of Time, truly a giant of the Immortal King Realm.

"How could this be... It's all over..."

Upon hearing this, the Remnant Immortal suddenly looked up, his face deathly pale, his heart turning ice-cold. His actions in this realm had actually been discovered by the king of the Immortal Domain.

The Nine Heavens Kings of the Immortal Ancient Era had many old friends in the Immortal Domain!

If they find out all this, I'm doomed. Perhaps they already know, otherwise why would Immortal King send an envoy? This is a certain death.

"No! Being imprisoned and sent back to the Immortal Domain means certain death. I cannot admit to these crimes."

The Remnant Immortal suddenly stood up, his breathing becoming much more rapid. In an instant, his thoughts raced. This time, it was only a seal of decree that had come, not Immortal King or a illusory god. He still had a chance.

"Who exactly wants to kill me and has reported this matter to the Immortal Domain?"

He was filled with anger and resentment, and then he shouted sharply, "How dare you! You dare to falsely convey the decree of the Immortal King!"

The Remnant Immortal acted swiftly, sparing no effort in unleashing his Xian Dao power, determined to eliminate the Supreme had delivered the decree as quickly as possible. With a deafening roar, a palm Shrouding the Heavens sky, causing mountains to crumble and seas to surge. Before him, vast stretches of mountains and rivers appeared, like a world within a world, attempting to trap the messenger who had delivered the decree.

"As expected of an immortal from the Desolate Antiquity Immortal Domain, that ancient Golden Crow was arrogant, and its descendants are just as arrogant." Su Yu laughed, wielding his dark battle halberd and slashing through the Void, piercing through the small world created by this secret technique camp. Then, he instantly attacked, aiming to sever the head of the Remnant Immortal.

He displayed the ultimate power, possessing both the Kun Peng and Immortal Phoenix Technique, making him virtually invincible in the Human Dao Domain.

Not only that, the decree was issued to suppress the Xian Dao formations in this area.

"The person behind you has a grudge against our ancestors."

With a loud roar, the Remnant Immortal's eyes widened in horror. He was shocked by the presumption of this Human Dao Supreme, who dared to so disrespect a Immortal King and actively forge a great karmic bond with his ancestor. It could be said that his soul name was already engraved on the Lunhui Stele.

This further demonstrates the immense power of the Immortal King behind them; otherwise, how could they dare to act this way?

How dare those ' Immortal King ' who are only at the level of Forbidden Zone Lords, or even ordinary Immortal King, so disrespect the master of the Desolate Antiquity Domain?

Facing the questioning from the Remnant Immortal, Su Yu's face was cold. " The Taiyang Immortal King of the Desolate Antiquity Domain?! My lineage has a great karmic connection with your ancestors, destined to be enemies."

"You slander this immortal with defamatory words; I'll capture you first!" the Supreme of the Immortal Palace roared, a magnificent Bronze Immortal Palace appearing behind him as he launched another attack.

Su Yu countered with the Dark Immortal Gold Halberd. Although the weapon was damaged, it still emitted an Xian Dao light under his control, capable of withstanding the laws of the Bronze Palace. This was because the damaged weapon came from a Quasi-King, a person of high status, and even its incompleteness did not diminish its divine status.

This Immortal of the Foreign Realm weapon also made the Remnant Immortal tremble; the blood of the Quasi-Immortal King of the Foreign Realm on it was still crimson, and it was surrounded by Wuliang killing light.

"Boom!"

Su Yu broke the seal, Six Paths of Lunhui Ancient Heavenly Art was activated within his body. The True Phoenix Precious Technique, Kun Peng Precious Technique, Demon Pu Technique, Willow Deity Technique Immortal Tribulation Sword Art, and Grass Character Sword Art were all activated at the same time, truly possessing the power to destroy heaven and earth. In an instant, he stood at the extreme realm and touched that barrier.

Since becoming Qin Hao's father, his condition has been improving. Before coming here, he had broken through the seal to the Supreme Realm. Although he was still shackled, he was able to unleash the ultimate divine power and was not afraid of the Remnant Immortal.

"Kill!"

Su Yu let out a roar, a sound that shook the universe. The Dark Immortal Gold Heavenly Halberd shone brightly as it cleaved down with force, the Dao waves like dark red ripples of ice and snow. The six-pointed dark bouquets fluttered and swayed like willow catkins, carrying a vast and Immortal Ancient killing intent, annihilating everything.

"No matter who's behind you, you're destined to die this time, descending to the Lower Realm alone!" On the other side, the Immortal Palace Remnant Immortal had fierce eyes, wielding a bronze palace and smashing it down. In an instant, immortal light soared into the Xian Dao, killing intent surged, extremely terrifying, causing the Sun-Moon, and stars to tremble, the Taiyang to fall, and the universe to become unstable!

"Boom!"

The green clouds surged, Bronze Immortal Palace shimmered with verdigris, covered with a massive amount of cursed power. This star field was directly destroyed. The immortal Xian Dao was boundless, and all the galaxies it passed through were severed. This scene was extremely terrifying.

Su Yu sprouted a pair of Undying Immortal Phoenix wings from his ribs, quickly dodging the Xian Dao attacks. Then, wielding the Heavenly Halberd, he unleashed world-destroying power, causing the area to completely collapse and crashing heavily onto the Bronze Immortal Palace.

With a deafening roar, numerous celestial bodies exploded and burned, causing a massive collapse of the starry sky!

At this moment, the world was astonished!

Throughout the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, all living beings looked up at the starry sky, utterly stunned. What had happened? In broad daylight, divine flames suddenly erupted, and celestial bodies appeared, only to explode and burn—it was truly astonishing.

In an instant, the two engaged in fierce combat, transforming into two bolts of lightning in the outer realms and plunging into the depths of the galaxy.

The more the Remnant Immortal fought, the more alarmed he became, sensing the overwhelming power of the Dao and knowing what it meant.

Extreme Dao Supreme highest realms are rare even in the vast Immortal Domain; they mostly come from powerful Immortal King families or are exceptionally talented individuals.

The fact that the other party dared to descend to the Lower Realm alone to issue an imperial decree shows they had the confidence to do so.

"Leave now. I will not hold a grudge between our two factions. I will create a forbidden zone and never interfere with this realm again." He couldn't help but roar. Such unrestrained use of immortal power might lead to his defeat soon, an outcome he could not accept.

"It's too late to say that now."

Su Yu's eyes remained calm. A pair of five-colored divine wings swept behind him, fluttering like Imperial Butterfly, once again avoiding the bronze rust patterns.

" The Sin Blood, the progenitor of the Primordial Imperial City, and the Kun Peng —they offended beings they shouldn't have back then, and these lineages are unlikely to have a good end. I was merely acting on someone's behalf. If the Immortal King behind you is truly powerful enough, then go and find those truly important figures," said the Remnant Xian Dao.

The intense battle took its toll on him; he gasped for breath, his chest heaving violently, unable to withstand the strain, and coughed up blood.

He was no longer at his peak and could hardly unleash his true power. He only wanted to rely on his higher cultivation level to take down this junior, but he was actually thwarted at this moment.

This young man is terrifying. Extreme Dao Supreme and possesses a Quasi-King artifact from the Foreign Realm. He's incredibly difficult to kill.

"Buzzing..."

The next moment, the Remnant Immortal unleashed his final attack. The Bronze Immortal Palace burst forth with a massive amount of light, all composed of Great Dao Runes, all of which were Xian Dao curses. The copper rust tore through the sky, falling like rain of light, densely packed, possessing a terrifying power.

The Remnant Immortal turned and left, because after unleashing this attack, his combat power was about to be depleted. The damage to his origin back then had not healed to this day.

He was depleted of blood and energy, and his spirit could not withstand any more strain.

The moment the bronze spell rain was unleashed, this entire starry sky exploded; it was terrifying, utterly destroyed.

The celestial bodies in this region were almost completely destroyed earlier, and now the impact is even wider, causing distant star fields to dim, with large stars burning and falling from the sky.

This is going to destroy the world!

But it still didn't work. Su Yu shook his True Phoenix Wings to avoid the attack and continued his pursuit. In terms of combat experience, the Remnant Immortal was not even as good as a Quasi-Emperor from later generations. He had not experienced much blood and fire. His only experience in the Primordial Ancient Realm was that he deserted. He did not dare to face the Immortal of the Foreign Realm from the Foreign Realm.

"Beheading!"

Su Yu stepped forward, and the stars shifted, creating a Chaos Great Dao beneath his feet. He moved too fast to allow the Remnant Immortal to escape.

At the same time, chains of order flew out from the Chaos Bell, like translucent True Dragon, with Dao traces rippled and emitted phoenix cries. Bathed in the holy light of Nirvana and accompanied by divine Divine Flame, they were dazzling and made the entire Void crystal clear, truly embodying the boundless Dao.

"Puff!"

As the Dark Immortal Gold Heavenly Halberd approached, it crashed into the Bronze Immortal Palace, scattering brilliant Mars. Even through the barrier of the immortal artifact, the Remnant Immortal could not withstand it, coughing up blood and staggering, clearly injured.

Undoubtedly, this was disastrous for the Remnant Immortal. His body was already exhausted; how could he withstand such a physical confrontation and such depletion?

"Come back to the Immortal Domain with me." Su Yu made his move, causing the heavens and earth to collapse and the earth to split. Dandelions all around him fluttered down, pure white and flawless, taking root in the Void. As they swayed, the voice of the Great Dao shook the world.

"The techniques of the Devil Sire Clan —you've even fought against the Supreme of the Demonic Pu Imperial Clan!"

The Remnant Immortal's voice trembled. This technique had stirred up his Immortal Ancient memories. There was Immortal of the Foreign Realm from the Demonic Pu Imperial Clan had devoured a True Immortal from the Immortal Domain right before his eyes. It was bloody and cruel, and the screams of that True Immortal were still hard to forget, making his heart tremble.

I guess so.

Su Yu smiled, revealing his snow-white teeth. He looked handsome, but in the eyes of the Remnant Immortal, he appeared extremely sinister.

The Pu Demon King king he suppressed was half-destroyed, and even with his life, he only had the strength of someone who had just entered the Supreme Realm. He was indeed the Supreme of the Demonic Pu Clan.

The next moment, the battle halberd, shrouded in the celestial patterns of the Great Dao, swept across, and the Bronze Immortal Palace roared. Su Yu abandoned his weapon, broke free, and unleashed a palm strike. In the blink of an eye, crimson clouds filled the sky, and a Heavenly Phoenix cried out, surrounded by blood-red Dao Fire, which rained down from the sky. The Remnant Immortal was continuously struck by the strange phenomena, his body flying through the air, coughing up blood in mid-air.

"Boom!"

A dandelion pierced through the Void, took root in the body of the Remnant Immortal, and frantically sucked his essence and blood, causing this Xian Dao being to let out a shrill scream.

He fought back desperately, trying to destroy the seed of the Willow Demon, but he couldn't stop it. He had suffered too many injuries in his early years, his body was withered, and he was now powerless to fight against the divine magic of the Foreign Realm Imperial Clan.

"Ah..."

Soon, faint Immortal Blood splattered, Remnant Immortal cried out in despair as the old wounds left from the Immortal Ancient Era were aggravated, causing him unbearable pain.

In the past, when he first entered the Kunpeng Nest, an unpredictable killing intent from Immortal King erupted, striking him and nearly causing him to explode, leaving his body covered in large cracks. Even after so many years, the laws still remain, and he is unable to completely heal his injuries.

As the Willow Demon was accomplished and the dust settled, the Demon Dandelion that had originally taken root on the Remnant Immortal's body began to multiply, using him as its fertile soil. The dandelions that bloomed from it became increasingly alluring, no longer pure white and translucent, but scarlet and deep red.

Compared to the Kun Peng Technique and the True Phoenix Technique, the Willow Demon is more domineering and more effective at restraining such a half- Remnant Immortal.

Because they themselves have weaknesses and are not flawless, they will be severely restrained when facing the Willow Demon.

The Remnant Immortal immortal was unwilling to accept his fate and continued to call upon the Bronze Immortal Palace, hoping that this divine artifact, which had accompanied him for two eras, could lead him to escape from danger.

But as the bronze palace shrank and fell into Su Yu's palm, the Remnant Immortal had no hope and couldn't help but beg for mercy, which was truly pitiful.

"Slow down, and stop your supernatural powers..."

He pleaded, now prostrating himself on the ground, his body covered in dandelions.

The founder of this Immortal Palace was heartbroken and filled with endless resentment. Xian Dao being begging for mercy from Human Dao Supreme —such a thing could happen in the world, it was infuriating.

What he found even more unbearable was that he failed to display his peak power, which was not the strength of True Immortal. He was captured by the Extreme Dao Supreme and would be escorted back to the Immortal Domain, his Lifetime reputation about to fall to dust.

"If I were at my peak, how could this junior be like this?" The Remnant Immortal was driven mad, his handsome face contorted, his brows twitching.

The next moment, a Demon Dandelion pierced his brow, attempting to drain his primordial spirit blood. This immediately caused the nobleman to scream, realizing the danger to his Life. He repeatedly begged Su Yu to stop, his limbs and bones enduring excruciating pain. This was nothing short of inhuman torture.

He didn't want to die a miserable death First Immortal back then; he was willing to sacrifice his dignity to survive.

"Ah... Celestial Messenger, the King's decree has ordered me to return. I beg you... to spare my life..." the Remnant Immortal uttered in anguish.

Su Yu remained expressionless, ignoring the cries of the Remnant Immortal.

Gradually, the howls of the Remnant Immortal weakened.

Immediately, a spiritual body flew out from Su Yu's Ten Grotto-Heaven, spreading out Kun Peng ripples, transforming into a young man in black robes and black hair. He truly possessed the demeanor of Kun Peng, but his pair of crimson eyes were too fierce, red as jewels and like blood-red suns, terrifying to the soul.
