A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 131

Chapter 131: Archenemy

“Damn it, why am I being chased right after I just reached the peak of Mortal World Immortal?”

Wu Yifan cursed silently as he looked back at the relentless Blood Puppet pursuing him.

He had initially thought that after breaking through to the Mortal World Immortal stage, along with his True Immortal body and the inheritance from the Red Stone Immortal Emperor, he could confidently take on a Golden Immortal. Moreover, the Red Stone Immortal Emperor had given him a large number of Immortal Artifacts, Talismans, and elixirs, so even against a Great Luo Golden Immortal, he could at least escape, if not fight.

However, hot on his heels was indeed a Blood Puppet at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level, which had previously been dispatched by Xue Yuan to capture Wu Yifan and bring him back.

The moment the opponent attacked, Wu Yifan sensed that he was no match, so he immediately made a clean getaway.

Thanks to the inheritance of the Red Stone Immortal Emperor, even though the opponent was at the peak of Great Luo Golden Immortal, they couldn’t catch up with him. But in the vast God Burial Valley, where could Wu Yifan escape to?

The Blood Puppet had thought it could catch Wu Yifan with a surprise attack, but unexpectedly, it was as if Wu Yifan had eyes in the back of his head, dodging its attack effortlessly.

Realizing that he couldn’t catch up to someone at the peak of Mortal World Immortal, the Blood Puppet knew that if this continued, Wu Yifan would likely escape, and it would face its master’s wrath.

Thus, without any hesitation, the Blood Puppet reported the situation back and closely followed Wu Yifan, provoking a rising sense of unease in him.

Meanwhile, in the Blood Soul Sect, Xue Yuan, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, filled with fury.

“What? That kid received an Immortal Emperor’s inheritance? You still can’t catch him? Wait, I’m on my way!”

Upon saying this, in the next moment, Xue Yuan vanished from the Blood Soul Sect and sped off in the direction indicated by the Blood Puppet, moving at a speed even faster than that of the Blood Puppet.

At the same time, Wu Yifan, who was being chased by the Blood Puppet, sensed an intense feeling of unease. As the Child of Destiny, he deeply trusted his sixth sense.

“This guy isn’t a fierce beast; he’s probably from the Blood Soul Sect. Now that I’ve obtained the Red Stone Immortal Emperor’s inheritance, he might have contacted strong members of the Blood Soul Sect. If the powerful members arrive, even with the inheritance, I might not be able to escape.”

Thinking this, Wu Yifan’s expression grew increasingly grim. After absorbing the inheritance, he was acutely aware of the Blood Soul Sect’s terrifying reputation. Although it had fallen from grace, a few Immortal Emperor-level experts still lay in slumber.

Among them, there were countless Immortal Venerables and Immortal Sovereigns. Now, even mentioning Immortal Kings, if one were to show up, Wu Yifan might not be able to escape at all.

Just as Wu Yifan was pondering his next step, a massive sense of crisis enveloped him. Almost instinctively, he dodged away from his original spot.

In an instant, a massive hand enveloped the area where Wu Yifan was located; had he not just moved away, he would have undoubtedly met his end.

“What an overwhelming pressure!”

Wu Yifan’s face changed dramatically as he sensed that this pressure far exceeded that of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, reaching at least the level of an Immortal King—no, at least that of an Immortal Sovereign.

“Oh, interesting. Truly remarkable for someone who has received the inheritance of an Immortal Emperor!”

As a voice echoed, Wu Yifan turned toward it and saw a young man clad in brilliantly bright red attire standing within the towering hand.

The look in the young man’s eyes was filled with surprise; it was clear he hadn’t expected Wu Yifan to evade an attack from someone at the peak of Immortal Venerable.

Wu Yifan stared at him, and the hair on his body stood on end as he sensed an aura emanating from the young man that he knew he could never overcome. It didn’t take long for Wu Yifan to recognize the young man’s identity, and his expression was filled with shock.

“You are Xue Yuan, the Holy Son of the Blood Soul Sect!”

“Oh, interesting. I didn’t expect you to recognize me. Since you know who I am, you should also understand my power. Submit to me as my servant, and I may let you live and grant you the opportunity to become an Immortal Venerable.”

Xue Yuan was slightly astonished but quickly adopted a haughty demeanor as he conferred this ‘favor’ upon Wu Yifan. In his eyes, joining the Blood Soul Sect was obviously Wu Yifan’s only chance of survival.

Despite Wu Yifan having received an Immortal Emperor’s inheritance, Xue Yuan believed that Wu Yifan had no chance of escaping.

At that moment, Wu Yifan’s heart sank as he never expected to be unlucky enough to be targeted by Xue Yuan.

Wu Yifan, naturally, had learned about Xue Yuan through the inheritance from the Red Stone Immortal Emperor, especially since Xue Yuan had shown dazzling prowess during the previous battles against the masters of the Upper Realm.

It could be said that Xue Yuan had single-handedly blocked nearly one-third of the Immortal Venerables from the Upper Realm, so upon seeing him, Wu Yifan knew he was likely doomed.

But that was only a likelihood; as long as the outcome was not yet determined, Wu Yifan was convinced that he still had a chance to survive.

“This is forcing my hand!”

Wu Yifan felt a pang as he hadn’t expected to have to use something from the inheritance of the Red Stone Immortal Emperor so soon.

As soon as Wu Yifan finished speaking, Xue Yuan’s heart sank, and nearly simultaneously, Wu Yifan pulled out a talisman containing a terrifying aura of power from the Storage Ring given by the Red Stone Immortal Emperor.

In the next moment, Wu Yifan directed his immortal energy into the talisman, and the sky above God Burial Valley began to tremble in response.

“Not good!”

Xue Yuan’s expression turned extremely grim as he swiftly recalled the Blood Puppet back into his body. He then summoned a massive cauldron emitting black smoke from his Storage Ring, placing it in front of himself as a shield.

Almost simultaneously, an ordinary-looking giant hand about a hundred meters in size was summoned from a spatial crack, swiftly striking toward Xue Yuan.

When it landed on the cauldron, there was no surprise; it directly sent Xue Yuan flying.

Wu Yifan saw this scene without any hesitation and turned to escape. He knew he could never defeat Xue Yuan, and only by fleeing could he have a chance at survival.

Sure enough, despite being sent flying, Xue Yuan only sustained minor injuries.

“Kid, you’re seeking death!”

Xue Yuan’s fury peaked at that moment. He hadn’t expected to be hurt after that battle, especially by someone at the peak of Mortal World Immortal. He regretted not taking lethal action upon first encountering Wu Yifan.

However, by the time Xue Yuan snapped back to reality, Wu Yifan had already vanished. But for Xue Yuan, this wasn’t a problem; he simply closed his eyes, and after just a breath, he spoke up.

“I found you!”
