Chapter 638: Possessing a Golden Immortal

Within the Spirit Emperor's hidden realm, the three Golden Immortals struck the twelve golden cultivators viciously, wounding them severely. They retreated as a red figure stepped into the formation, drawing everyone's attention.

"Your Majesty!" the twelve golden cultivators exclaimed in glee.

"Damn it, Xiao Nanfeng's back! Just what are those two Golden Immortals on the outside doing?!"

"Could something have gone wrong?"

"You won't be able to use that relic of yours if you lose your life! Come on, detonate it and let us out!"

The three Golden Immortals shouted at each other, seemingly exasperated—but that was only a ploy to cause their opponents to drop their guards. The three cultivators launched themselves at Xiao Nanfeng simultaneously.

"Protect His Majesty!" the twelve golden cultivators shouted.

They were all sent flying.

The red and blue spiritual moons rose into the air simultaneously and transformed. The red moon became the red rope king and shot toward a Golden Immortal, while the blue moon became a blue lotus and rushed after it.

Death chants emanated from the air, causing the three Golden Immortals to freeze in surprise.

"Death chants? How can this be? Isn't the Venerable Buddha dead?"

"We're Golden Immortals. Death chants won't be able to do anything against us."

"That's not true. These death chants seem stronger than the ones before."

The three Golden Immortals blanched.

The death chants were starting to take effect—until radiant light shone from their bodies and neutered some of their effects. The Golden Immortals shook their heads, growing clear-headed once more.

Just then, the red rope king, like a poisonous dragon, shot forth toward a Golden Immortal.

The Golden Immortal's eyes widened as she slapped at the dragon. The red rope king was sent flying back from one end, but the other end whipped around and caught the Golden Immortal's neck. Then, it drew taut.

The Golden Immortal yelped in agony as she scrambled to free herself, but was completely unable to do so.

The blue lotus flew toward her head.

"Be careful!" the other two Golden Immortals shouted.

However, with the twelve golden cultivators holding them back, they weren't able to make a move.

The stricken Golden Immortal intoned, "Divine light, protect me!"

Radiant golden light surged out of her body and arrested the red rope king's movements. Although she wasn't able to free herself from it, she had defended against its attacks for the time being.

Meanwhile, however, the blue lotus landed squarely above her head and began sending death chants deep into her mind and soul.

The blue lotus perfectly encapsulated the cultivation of the Past, Present, and Future Buddhas. It was a complete cursed spiritual avatar, and its death chants had been honed to an astounding degree. Although Xiao Nanfeng wasn't yet able to draw out all of its strength, such close contact between the blue lotus and a Golden Immortal would be devastating.

The Golden Immortal shrieked in pain. "You won't be able to suppress my consciousness. Break!"

The red rope king coiled taut around her neck once more, and the blue lotus possessed her. She suddenly stood immobile.

"Wake up! Wake up!" the other two Golden Immortals called out.

Just then, Xiao Nanfeng stepped forward and into the immobile Golden Immortal's mindscape.

The Golden Immortal's eyes opened wide, then suddenly shrank. She had awoken.

The blue lotus followed Xiao Nanfeng into the Golden Immortal's mindscape and continued to suppress her consciousness. The red rope king loosened its grip on her neck and flew into Xiao Nanfeng's body as well.

Just then, they could see a beam of blue light emerge from the forehead of the cultivator he was possessing.

They frowned in unease, but it was too late. Xiao Nanfeng's body had self-destructed.

A flaming tempest engulfed the three Golden Immortals. The detonation of a Golden Immortal was even more destructive than that of a Golden Immortal relic, especially at such close range.

"No!" the two Golden Immortals cried out.

Xiao Nanfeng had long since escaped. From a distance, in pristine condition, he looked toward the tempest he had unleashed.

After the fire and the wind dissipated, two charred, broken bodies were revealed in sight. The Golden Immortals lay paralyzed on the ground, vomiting out fresh blood, glancing at him with shock and disbelief.

How were they supposed to fight? Xiao Nanfeng could possess them and launch kamikaze attacks on them with their own bodies. If they were to keep fighting, they would surely perish.

"Emperor Xiao, I admit defeat. We shouldn't have attacked Yongding, and I am willing to furnish compensation for what I've done," a Golden Immortal called out.

"I'll surrender and provide compensation myself!" the other Golden Immortal added.

Xiao Nanfeng glanced coldly at the two cultivators as he considered how to deal with them. Was he to kill them directly as a warning to external forces, or to ransom them off for greater profit?

Just then, Ye Dafu stepped forward. He glanced at Xiao Nanfeng pleadingly. "Your Majesty, would you spare them?"

Xiao Nanfeng looked over at him. The twelve golden cultivators were all eyeing him, as though hoping that he would show clemency on the two Golden Immortals. He gave them all an odd look, having deduced what they were after.

"Very well. We'll keep them for the time being. Blue Lantern, can you seal them?" Xiao Nanfeng asked.

From outside the formation, Blue Lantern nodded. "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Then I'll leave them to you. Seal their cultivation first," Xiao Nanfeng commanded.

"Understood!" Blue Lantern nodded.

The two Golden Immortals exhaled in relief, glad that they had been saved from death.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" they exclaimed.

"Don't thank me. Thank them," Xiao Nanfeng replied, pointing at the twelve golden cultivators.

The two Golden Immortals bowed in gratitude. "Thank you, Sir Ye! Thank you, everyone!"

The twelve golden cultivators' eyes gleamed. Ye Dafu chuckled. "No need for courtesy. We feel a sense of attachment to the two of you, you see, and we'd love to develop closer bonds with you."

"Of course!" The two Golden Immortals would agree to anything as long as they could keep their lives.

Then, Blue Lantern invoked the Formation of the Complete Heavens, as well as the power inherent in the three Golden Immortal relics, and infused them into a Golden Immortal's body.

"Do not resist," he said. "I'm sealing your cultivation."

Though the Golden Immortal was worried, he didn't resist. His body was quickly surrounded with golden light. He shuddered as his cultivation was sealed.

Seeing that the first Golden Immortal was unharmed, the second one didn't resist. He allowed Blue Lantern to seal his cultivation as well.

"Blue Lantern, when will we be able to regain the use of these two masseuses?" Ye Dafu asked.

"Although their cultivation has been sealed, Golden Immortals can regain their strength quickly. They'll be back to normal in no time."

"Good, good! I'm looking forward to when they can massage us all again. Thank you for your help," Ye Dafu replied, beaming.

Blue Lantern nodded.

Not far away, the two Golden Immortals stilled. They glanced at each other and murmured, "Why is Ye Dafu calling us masseuses? What's he talking about?"

"I don't know either. I can't understand what they're saying!"
