The Immortal Manor Opens, and Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road

"Young master! You've finally arrived!"

"We have been waiting here for quite some time!"

Zi Wuji, and Yan Nantian clasped his hands in greeting; their posture was even more affectionate than when they were seeing their own father!

"Hiss--!"

A collective gasp filled the entire arena!

"I... I didn't see that wrong, did I?!"

"The Purple Star Immortal Emperor and the Great Yan Immortal Emperor... how could they be so humble towards that young man?!"

"Who exactly is he?! Could he be a prince of a superior immortal dynasty?! Or... the legendary holy son of Immortal Ancestor?!"

The Immortal Lord had spoken so rudely was now deathly pale with fright, wishing he could slap himself twice, and cowering in the crowd, trembling with fear.

Dongfang Yueming looked at the two familiar faces who were being overly solicitous and nodded slightly.

"Yes, it's here."

His gaze swept over the bronze immortal palace, sensing the faint golden aura emanating from it, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

"It seems the intelligence was accurate."

"Don't worry, young master!" Zi Wuji quickly assured him, "We have already arranged the quotas for entering the Immortal Abode. Whoever wants to enter will have to wait in line after you!"

Yan Nantian patted his chest and declared, "Anyone who dares to compete with the young master is going against the Great Yan!"

The two of them sang in unison, instantly establishing Dongfang Yueming's absolute dominance in the area.

Just when everyone thought that this mysterious young man would win first place without any doubt.

"Boom--!!!"

A terrifying roar, like a thunderclap, suddenly echoed from the heavens!

Immediately afterwards.

The Xukong... shattered!

A gigantic, purple-gold claw forcefully tore open the spatial barrier of the intermediate immortal realm!

Then, a terrifying warship, made entirely of purple-gold divine iron, tens of thousands of feet long, and Entanglement with billions of bolts of lightning, slowly emerged from the Xukong rift!

The warship was engraved with countless profound immortal runes, and the aura it emitted actually surpassed the fourth rank, reaching... the fifth rank!

A Tier 5 Immortal Artifact – [Lightning-Control Divine Boat]!

"Boom--!"

The moment the warships landed, an immense, domineering, and terrifying pressure swept across the entire area indiscriminately!

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"

Below, countless cultivators with lower cultivation levels were directly shaken by this oppressive force, causing them to spit out blood and kneel on the ground!

Even powerful Immortal Emperor like Zi Wuji and Yan Nantian were visibly shocked, forced to use their inner energy to resist.

"A... a fifth-tier immortal ship?!"

"This is... the power of a superior immortal dynasty?!"

On the warship, a cold and arrogant voice, like Tianlei, rolled down.

"This Myriad Phenomena Immortal Manor, my [Divine Firmament Sect] wants it."

"Get out, you bystanders!"

As the voice faded, a handsome young man dressed in a purple-gold robe with lightning patterns, his long hair flowing, and a lightning bolt mark between his brows appeared at the bow of the ship, surrounded by four unfathomable elders.

His gaze was disdainful, looking down upon all living beings as if they were ants.

Taiyi Immortal Dynasty, Divine Firmament Sect True Transmission - Lei Dongtian!

Cultivation level: Half-Step Immortal King!

Behind him were four elderly men who were none other than terrifying beings at the Immortal Emperor level!

"God... Divine Firmament Sect?!"

Zi Wuji and Yan Nantian exchanged a glance, both seeing the despair in each other's eyes.

The Taiyi Immortal Dynasty was a behemoth among the superior immortal dynasties! And the Divine Firmament Sect was the top sect among them, specializing in thunder magic and Wushuang in its domineering power!

Faced with such a behemoth, they didn't even have the right to resist!

"It's over..."

"This opportunity is probably out of the question."

Everyone present lowered their heads, preparing to leave.

However.

Amidst this retreating crowd, a figure in blue stood alone, motionless.

Dongfang Yueming looked up at the arrogant Lei Dongtian, then at the lightning patterns on his body, and a playful smile suddenly appeared on his lips.

"The Divine Firmament Sect? They play with lightning?"

"That's interesting."

"Roll!"

This single word, without employing any Divine Ability, carried the supreme will of Half-Step Immortal King, striking the hearts of everyone present like a heavy hammer.

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

"We can't afford to offend the Divine Firmament Sect!"

The various forces that had been crowding around the entrance to the Immortal Abode, trying to take advantage of the chaos, now looked like Rat seeing a cat, their faces pale as they scrambled to retreat to the outer perimeter.

Even the emperors of the middle-level immortal dynasties, Zi Wuji and Yan Nantian, had ashen faces and clenched fists, yet they had no choice but to lower their noble heads and slowly retreat with the crowd.

Circumstances are beyond our control.

Before the behemoth that is a superior immortal dynasty, the so-called Immortal Emperor is nothing more than a slightly larger ant.

In just a few breaths.

The once crowded entrance to the Void Rift Valley now has a large vacuum area.

However.

Amidst the chaotic receding tide, a figure in blue stood out conspicuously.

Instead of retreating, he stood quietly with his hands behind his back, no more than a hundred feet away from the gate of the [Myriad Phenomena Immortal Manor].

As the waves recede, the reefs stand out.

"Um?"

On the purple-gold warship, Lei Dongtian palace, paused slightly.

He slowly turned his head, and for the first time, his eyes, which were flowing with lightning, fell on a "native of the Lower Realm realm".

"Interesting."

Lei Dongtian's lips curled into a playful smile, but his eyes were icy cold.

"Can't you understand what I'm saying?"

Or... are you deaf?

Dongfang Yueming remained indifferent, his gaze fixed straight ahead, as if the towering fifth-tier immortal ship before him, and the arrogant Half-Step Immortal King, were nothing but air.

"Roads are for people to walk on."

If you can leave, why can't I?

"Presumptuous!"

Before Lei Dongtian could speak, the withered-faced old man in gray robes behind him was already furious.

"How dare an ant from a mere inferior immortal dynasty disrespect my young master?!"

"Since you don't want to leave, then stay here forever!"

This old man is one of the guardian elders of the Divine Firmament Sect, a genuine Early Immortal Emperor!

He didn't use his full strength at all, and even disdained to use Divine Ability.

He simply flicked his sleeve.

"Call--!"

A surge of violent, deep purple lightning immortal power instantly transformed into a gigantic lightning palm a hundred feet in size, carrying a terrifying force capable of shattering mountains, and swept towards Dongfang Yueming!

This attack, though casual, contained the laws of the Immortal Emperor, enough to turn an ordinary Immortal Lord Perfection of cultivation into mincemeat!

"It's over!"

The people in the distance felt a chill run down their spines.

However.

Faced with the gigantic hand of lightning hurtling towards him, Dongfang Yueming remained completely still, not even blinking.

He didn't summon Immortal Immortal Artifact, didn't unleash any laws, and didn't even... activate any protective immortal light!

He only trembled slightly at the moment the giant hand was about to strike him.

[Origin Immortal Body) ] - Shock!

"Buzz--!"

In that instant, a pure and ultimate physical energy, like an ancient Ferocious Beast awakening from its slumber, formed an invisible energy field on his body!

"Collapse!"

A dull, explosive sound!

The colossal, thunderous palm, upon touching this layer of energy, felt as if it had struck an unshakeable wall of divine iron!

There was no stalemate.

The giant lightning palm shattered instantly, turning into countless scattered arcs of electricity that flew in all directions!

Meanwhile, Dongfang Yueming, who was at the epicenter of the explosion, was dressed in a green robe that fluttered in the wind, his hair was lightly tossed about, and not even the hem of his clothes was torn in the slightest!

"What?!"

The gray-robed elder who had made the move suddenly showed a look of astonishment on his previously indifferent face.

"Pure physical energy?!"

"It actually shattered my casual attack?!"

Keep in mind that even if he only used 30% of his power, it was still an attack at the level of Immortal Emperor!

Could this kid's physical body be forged from fourth-tier immortal metal?!

"Huh?"

Lei Dongtian, who had been arrogant all along, now had an even stronger look of amusement in his eyes.

He turned around and looked directly at Dongfang Yueming, his gaze sharp as lightning, as if trying to see right through the young man in blue.

"A Immortal Lord Perfection at the peak of cultivation, yet his physical body is this powerful?"

"That's interesting..."

"It seems that even in this remote and impoverished place, a few small fry occasionally emerge."

He wasn't angry about his subordinates' failure; instead, he seemed to have discovered a new and interesting toy.

"Kid, your physical body is quite good. If you were to refine it into a Thunder Corpse Puppet, it would be a top-tier specimen."

"But..."

Lei Dongtian glanced at the slowly opening gate of the immortal mansion behind him, where the Five Elements Divine Light had begun to burst forth.

"I don't have time to play with you right now."

"You're lucky."

He glanced coldly at Dongfang Yueming, his gaze still one of condescending superiority.

"Once you enter the immortal abode, you'd better pray I don't run into you."

"Otherwise, I'll show you what... despair truly means."

After saying that, he waved his sleeve and, along with four guardian elders, transformed into a thick bolt of lightning, rushing into the immortal palace!

Now that the Immortal Abode has been opened, seizing treasures is the top priority; killing... is something that can be done at any time.

Watching the figures of the Divine Firmament Sect members disappear, Dongfang Yueming lightly flicked non-existent dust off his sleeves.

A cold, sharp smile curved at the corners of his lips.

"Bump into?"

"Rest assured."

Your luck... is definitely not going to be good.

He took a step forward, his figure as swift as lightning, and followed closely behind, rushing into that bizarre and dazzling door!
