Chapter 22 Senior Li’s Mission_1

Translator: 549690339

The Saintess of the mighty Dragon Profound Sect was kneeling and begging for mercy at this moment.

The hearts of all were immensely complicated.

“This time, the Dragon Profound Sect has truly brought about a catastrophe!”

“Although they are a Supreme Level power, if an Immortal wrathful, they are nothing but dust!”

Many people were discussing in low voices.

The Dragon Profound Sect was strong, but this time, they had indeed kicked an iron plate.

Fire Spirit took a deep breath, slowly coming back to her senses, feeling as if she were in a dream.

Looking at the kneeling figures of these great powers…many of them were once existences that the Fire Country could not afford to provoke.

All this was due to Senior Li.

She glanced at Long Ziying with a flicker of coldness in her eyes.

“Self-destruct your cultivation and await punishment!”

She didn’t care how Long Ziying had just treated her, but she wouldn’t forget that the other party didn’t even regard Senior Li highly.

This, she could not tolerate!

Upon hearing this, Long Ziying’s face drastically changed.

To self-destruct one’s cultivation…

Her body was trembling, her heart struggling.

Once her cultivation was destroyed, it meant she would become a mortal.

For a Saintess of a Supreme Level power, this was simply unacceptable.

But, if she did not self-destruct her cultivation…

“When an Immortal rages, even Supremes must die.”

At this moment, Ling Xian spoke with a complex expression, as a reminder.

Immortal!

Long Ziying despaired.

She let out a miserable laugh and took out a Soul Severing Nail!

Then, she directly drove it into her own body!

Self-destruction of cultivation!

A sigh rose from the crowd!

“Off with you—”

Fire Spirit spoke, and Long Ziying, with a wry smile, retreated and left.

“Princess Ling’er, since that senior has taken action, we of the Taiyan Holy Land will by no means interfere!”

Ling Xian bowed to Fire Spirit and said, “We take our leave.”

Qing Luo of the Immortal Melody Pavilion did the same, bidding farewell with a bow.

Suddenly, many people began to leave.

With an entity transcending Supremes intervening, this place was no longer within anyone else’s reach.

There were also some powers waiting, though they dared not compete, they did want to see what was inside the Demon Venerable’s coffin.

Fire Spirit and the others turned to look at the Demon Venerable’s coffin.

Approaching the coffin, they saw that it contained nothing but a square block of wood.

On top of the block, there was a black flame!

“This is the Supreme Magical Treasure of Supreme Monarch Lihuo—Heavenly Fire Divine Town!”

Someone exclaimed in surprise.

“The Heavenly Fire Divine Town is said to be made of millennium Xuanhuo Wood, and even more so, it contains the life Dao of Supreme Monarch Lihuo!”

“With this object, one could almost recreate a Supreme.”

“However, this item has been invaded by demonic energy, and unless an Immortal intervenes, whoever uses it will die!”

The crowd buzzed with discussion.

“Sect Master, what do you think?”

Uncertain, Fire Spirit turned to ask Yu Qishui.

Yu Qishui pondered for a moment and said, “Senior Li bestowed the painting and led us here; it is probably for this very item!”

“We must retrieve it for Senior Li!”

Fire Spirit nodded.

She then stepped forward and took out the block of wood.

“Be careful, the demonic energy inside is intense; it is most likely the cause of Supreme Monarch Lihuo’s transformation into a demon and it could infect others at any time!”

An elder warned.

Fire Spirit, however, shook her head and said, “This item dares not act recklessly!”

Upon hearing this, everyone was momentarily stunned, then they understood—the terrifying painting was still with Fire Spirit; how could the demonic energy dare to disturb?

“Let’s go!”

Fire Spirit commanded!

…

Before long, Fire Spirit and the others had left the Secret Realm.

They returned to the Lihuo Sect first.

The reason being, Yu Qishui and the others feared someone might be tracking them; disturbing Senior Li would be a grave sin.

They waited at the Lihuo Sect.

…

Meanwhile, the news of the emergence of Supreme Monarch Lihuo’s Secret Realm in the Cangli Mountain Range spread rapidly throughout the Southern Territory.

When word got out that the Supreme Monarch Lihuo of yesteryear had turned into the Demon Venerable, destroying the Ancient Tuo Ya Zun of the Taiyan Holy Land and even forcing the Supreme of the Taiyan Holy Land to retreat, the entire Southern Territory was astounded.

The Taiyan Holy Land was one of the top forces in the entire Southern Territory.

Founded by an Immortal!

Moreover, such Sect Gates generally have channels to contact their ancient ancestors in the Immortal Realm.

Such a domineering force was suppressed by a single demon…

Yet, such a terrifying Demon Venerable was in the end subdued by a painting.

The news sent shockwaves throughout the Southern Territory.

“Could it be that there is an Immortal in our Southern Territory now?!”

“Definitely, it’s said that some Immortals with unpeaked cultivation may choose to cultivate in secret in the mortal world for a time, surely it’s such an entity.”

“But for a thousand years, no one has heard of anyone taking that step on the Immortal Path.”

The world was abuzz with the news.

Fire Spirit and the Lihuo Sect were thrust into the limelight.

All eyes in the Southern Territory were fixed on them!

Inside the Imperial Palace of the Fire Country.

“Your majesty, that wench must be responsible for Ming Xuan and Empress Xuan’s death; you must avenge them and kill that wench!”

A beautiful woman was crying out before the Fire Emperor!

The Fire Emperor, dressed in a luminous yellow robe, had an exceedingly grim expression.

“Shut your mouth!”

The Fire Emperor shouted angrily, “Do you want me dead too?! She has a being transcending Supremes standing behind her!”

The beautiful woman immediately fell silent.

“Guard, take my imperial decree, and invite Princess Ling’er back; I want to establish her as the next Empress of the Fire Country!”

The Fire Emperor’s gaze was somber.

The beautiful woman was as if struck by lightning…

…

Some time had passed.

Yu Qishui and the others finally confirmed that there was no one spying around.

In truth, this was just their unnecessary caution; who would dare spy on an Immortal? That would be courting disaster for their own Sect!
