Chapter 2597 Next

"Who's next?"

Standing on the Sword Discourse Arena, Su Zimo surveyed his surroundings with a burning gaze and a shuddering aura as he asked slowly.

The Heaven Immortals below did not dare to meet his gaze and averted it.

The Rank 1s of the three Immortal Domains who stood out earlier on fell silent as well with wary expressions and did not say anything.

Initially, Princess Lang Qianqian wanted to find an opportunity to fight Su Zimo once more. But now, she put that thought aside.

Even Ying Tian nearly died—who could guarantee that he could survive the battle?

Even if she managed to survive in the same manner as Ying Tian, she would have lost all face and the losses outweighed the gains.

Su Zimo was very satisfied with the reactions of the crowd below.

This was the effect he wanted when he attacked so ferociously earlier on!

Otherwise, it would be too troublesome if so many cultivators came to challenge him one after another.

Furthermore, before he attacked, he had already expected that someone would save Ying Tian.

Ying Tian's ident.i.ty was special after all. Immortal King Pu Xuan and Zen Master Hui Wen were hosting the Nine Firmament Meet and there was no way they would let the prince die in front of them.

Qin Ce of the Grand Firmament Immortal Domain glanced sideways. "Shadow, go!"

"Understood!"

An imperceptible figure behind Qin Ce hesitated for a moment before agreeing to it.

He had no name.

Everything he had was given to him by Qin Ce. Even his life did not belong to him and he was prepared to sacrifice himself for Qin Ce at any moment!

He was merely Qin Ce's shadow.

When Su Zimo saw that no one was going to fight, he was about to leave when a figure entered the Sword Discourse Arena. Many cultivators were invigorated.

"Mmm?"

Su Zimo frowned slightly. "There's still someone who dares to come?"

The person's face was covered and his body swayed slightly, as though he was one with the void around the Sword Discourse Arena. His entire body seemed hazy and blurry.

After Shadow went on stage, he attacked Su Zimo without saying anything!

Suddenly, he vanished. When he reappeared, he was already beside Su Zimo and stabbed towards the back of the latter's head!

s.h.i.+ng!

The sword qi tore through the void and let out a sharp sound.

Su Zimo's expression was calm and unmoved. In fact, he did not even attempt to dodge.

Before the sword qi even landed on Su Zimo, it dissipated rapidly and vanished.

Shadow's attack earlier on was merely a feint.

Even that seemingly corporeal sword qi was merely an illusion!

s.h.i.+ng!

Shadow appeared once more. This time round, he arrived beside Su Zimo and slashed through the air with a murderous intent!

Su Zimo did not even look at him and was still motionless.

The figure dissipated once more and vanished.

Shadow cultivated many Dharmic Daos, including the Dao of concealment, a.s.sa.s.sination and illusion. The current scene was the result of those Dharmic Daos combined together.

Although Su Zimo had never dabbled in those Dharmic Daos before, he relied on his spirit perception and was not disturbed at all.

Shadow's two attacks earlier on did not make him feel threatened.

Even after a few probing attempts, Shadow did not truly attack.

Swoos.h.!.+

Shadow appeared once more.

"Die!"

This time round, Shadow released an Essence Spirit secret skill at Su Zimo while s.h.i.+fting between illusion and reality.

What was initially a feint turned into a true a.s.sa.s.sination attempt instantly!

Su Zimo's expression turned cold.

Shadow was not here to spar at all.

In a Dharmic art fight between cultivators, he released his Essence Spirit secret skill right away—it was clear he was out to kill!

If he was not wrong, this person was ordered by Qin Ce to kill him and s.n.a.t.c.h the Jade Pure Jade Manual!

"Hmph!"

Su Zimo was a decisive person to begin with. Once he realized that, there was no way he would hold back.

He ignored Shadow's Essence Spirit secret skill and conjured a Dharmic seal, smas.h.i.+ng it towards the latter's head!

"Hom!"

At the same time, Su Zimo chanted Sanskrit.

Instantly, the Dharmic seal in his hands seemed to have transformed into a thick, majestic and unattainable mountain peak that crushed down with a shocking might!

"Oh?"

In the direction of the Pure Land of Bliss, the eyes of some Heavenly Kings of the Buddhist monasteries lit up when they saw the mountain peak.

The glint in s.h.i.+ Wunian's eyes intensified as he murmured, "To think that it's the secret skill of the Buddhist monasteries, the Great Mount Meru Seal. This lad indeed has the inheritance of the Buddhist monasteries!"

The Great Mount Meru Seal!

It was a one-sided defeat!

The Great Mount Meru Seal was heavy, steady and simple. It was the most effective against the illusory Dharmic Dao techniques Shadow utilized.

Back at the Divine Firmament Immortal Meet, even Yun Ting could not dispel that Dharmic seal right away and was disadvantaged.

It was even worse for Shadow!

Creak!

Shadow's sword was shattered by the Great Mount Meru Seal.

Poof!

Although more than half of the power was dissipated, the Great Mount Meru Seal still caused Shadow to spit out blood and he was sent flying.

Su Zimo's hand seals changed once more!

Before Shadow's figure landed, a ma.s.sive White Tiger appeared to the west of him. It roared and opened its b.l.o.o.d.y mouth, biting Shadow!

That bite and roar of the White Tiger had already killed Shadow!

It was one of Su Zimo's strongest killing techniques, White Tiger Corpse Collection!

Qin Ce's Shadow died on the spot and his Essence Spirit was destroyed!

"Amitabha."

Zen Master Hui Wen chanted a Buddhist proclamation softly with a look of pity.

This time round, neither Immortal King Pu Xuan nor he stood in to save Shadow.

After all, Shadow was just a servant under Qin Ce's lead. His status was worlds apart from the prince and was not worthy of the two of them making a move.

Beneath the Sword Discourse Arena, the crowd was in an uproar!

Su Zimo's counterattack was so ferocious that Qin Ce's Shadow was killed on the spot after two Dharmic arts!

At the same time, many cultivators felt relieved.

Thankfully, they did not head to the Sword Discourse Arena rashly earlier on. Otherwise, the corpse up there right now might have been one of them!

Qin Ce's expression darkened and his eyes shone with a cold glint.

"Interesting."

Suddenly, Qin Ce smiled and clapped his hands, saying meaningfully, "Su Zimo, you're very good. The road ahead is long, I'm sure we'll get to interact again."

Everyone could hear the threat in Qin Ce's words!

Qin Ce was a prince and had the potential of contending for the Supreme Perfected Immortal t.i.tle. He possessed the inheritance of the Grand Pure Jade Manual and was definitely bent on getting his hands on the Jade Pure Jade Manual!

Su Zimo ignored Qin Ce's threat and merely pointed at Shadow's corpse, saying coldly, "Take him away. Next."

Instantly, the discussions in the surrounding quietened down.

Su Zimo defeated two Grade 9 Heaven Immortals in succession and even Prince Ying Tian nearly died. Who would dare to head up and die?

Earlier on, a group of Heaven Immortals were eager to challenge Su Zimo.

But now, when Su Zimo stood on the Sword Discourse Arena and challenged the Heaven Immortal experts of the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain and Pure Land of Bliss, none of them dared to accept the challenge!

"Fufu…"

Su Zimo chuckled and leaped down from the Sword Discourse Arena, returning to the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain.

The Grand Elder of the academy was all smiles and looked satisfied.

In the two battles earlier on, not only did Su Zimo make a supreme reputation for himself and shock the crowd, the reputation of Heaven and Earth Academy benefited indirectly as well.

After this, there were some Heaven Immortals who went onto the arena to spar. However, everything seemed much blander compared to Su Zimo's battles earlier on.

The spar between the Heaven Immortals did not cause much of a stir and ended quickly.

Next was the main event of the Nine Firmament Meet, the fight for the Perfected Immortal Ranking and Arhat Ranking!
