Chapter 362 Ninth-Grade Heavenly Immortal, Heavenly Immortal of the Ninth Grade

“Kill you, and no one can stop me!”

“This world can actually contain the existence of heavenly immortals—it’s the highest-grade mortal realm!”

“If I refine it, absorb the world’s root, then not only will I restore my peak battle power, but stepping into the mysterious immortal realm will be effortless!”

“You will become my nourishment!”

The True Immortal sneered coldly, extended a finger, opened a heavenly gate, and pointed it at “Su Bai.”

He intended to kill “Su Bai” with a single finger!!

He had absolute confidence—after all, he was a True Immortal!

Even in the Immortal Realm, becoming a True Immortal meant you were an absolute powerhouse!

A lord of a great city was nothing more than this!

And his opponent was merely a native of the mortal world!

Not only a mortal native— even under the True Immortal rank in the Immortal Realm, to him they were no more than ants!

That sense of superiority had penetrated his soul; there was no need to say more!!!

But very soon!

“Rumble!!!!”

一股足以毁天灭地、镇压九霄的恐怖气势猛然爆发而出!!!

“Pu-chi!”

The finger the True Immortal had extended shattered instantly!!!

Now that Su Bai’s True Self had emerged from seclusion, his Second True Form had naturally been elevated to the same power level as the True Self!

Before closing himself off, Su Bai’s strength could contend with two Supremes—indeed, the two Supremes of the Heavenly Palace!

After seclusion, Su Bai rose directly from a Heavenly Venerable around the Fourth Layer to a half-step Supreme realm!

His combat power far exceeded what a tenfold stacking would have produced before!

“Huh?!”

The True Immortal’s pupils contracted!!!

Su Bai’s strength exceeded his expectations!

“Sixth-rank celestial immortal?”

(Here, explain the division of the heavenly immortal realm in detail.

Becoming a true immortal who attains longevity is exceedingly difficult, and the conditions are extremely harsh; more on that later.

Coupled with the assistance of longevity qi, some heavenly immortals can live for millions of years and develop profound foundations, which leads to vast differences in strength among those in the heavenly immortal realm.

By strength, heavenly immortals are divided into nine grades.

Previously, Gao Pan was the most ordinary first-grade heavenly immortal; his power was only slightly stronger than a mortal world’s Supreme Being.

Mortals like emperors—such as the Sixth Patriarch War Emperor—when entering the Immortal Realm, possess the combat power of a third- to fourth-grade heavenly immortal; if they transform their immortal power, they can rise three more grades.

Between heavenly immortals, a one-grade difference creates suppression, two grades create crushing advantage, three grades lead to instant kill.)

Still, the True Immortal retained his invincible confidence!

“So what if he’s a sixth-grade heavenly immortal!”

“When I was at my peak, as a ninth-grade heavenly immortal, I could erase you with a snap of my fingers!”

“Even now, though not yet fully restored, killing you is a single hand’s work!”

The True Immortal barked coldly and thrust out his other palm!

Fingers forming a seal, he pressed down fiercely toward Su Bai.

One palm slammed!!!

In an instant, the sky collapsed and the earth caved; the firmament fractured!!!

He intended to crush this petty sixth-grade heavenly immortal!!!

However……….

A blade of extreme cold flickered, and a sword descended.

A brilliant sword light pierced the stars!

One stroke cleaved that giant palm in two.

“What?”

The True Immortal’s face contorted wildly!

Su Bai’s power was beyond his expectation!

In an instant, Su Bai’s strength had surged tenfold!

The Divine Forbidden Domain—tenfold power stacking!

“Eighth-grade peak heavenly immortal?”

The True Immortal’s eyes bulged, utterly incredulous!

How could he possibly possess the power of an eighth-grade heavenly immortal?

Was this really the combat strength a being from the lower realm should have?

After all, without the longevity qi within immortal crystals, below the True Immortal rank, no matter the realm, the longest lifespans only reached on the order of ten-odd thousand years!

Ten-odd thousand years—how could one cultivate up to the eighth-grade heavenly immortal realm in that span?

Which of those high heavenly immortals in the Immortal Realm wasn’t a million-year-old ancient monster built up by time?

“It seems you cannot leave this gate!”

Su Bai now noticed the limits binding the True Immortal and shook his head slightly.

“Hmph!!!”

The True Immortal snorted coldly and sneered, “That is this world’s resistance preventing me from entering!”

“Wait until I recover my peak strength; the world’s root is nothing—I’ll suppress it with a flick of my hand!”

“Since you have become an eighth-grade heavenly immortal, why not we have a nice talk?”

“If you surrender to me and help me refine this world, restoring my peak,”

“I can promise you immortal fate: admission into the Aoki Immortal Sect, immortal pills, even teaching you the supreme cultivation art to help you ascend the immortal path!”

“If you are unreasonable….”

The True Immortal threatened, trying to sway Su Bai into submission.

“Oh?”

A trace of derision curled Su Bai’s mouth; he looked at him as if at a fool.

“Do you think I’m as stupid as they are?”

Su Bai pointed to the Heavenly Palace—now the palace’s strong were all dead; only trembling weaklings remained.

“No, you’re wrong—you are not like them!”

“They are merely ants who don’t know their place, but you, my friend, are a true prodigy, a topmost unsurpassed talent even in the Hao Sea Immortal Realm!”

“A genius like you—how could I bear to kill you? I bring you into the sect, I myself gain supreme rewards; isn’t that a win-win?”

The True Immortal continued to cajole.

“Ha ha ha!”

“‘Win-win’?”

“Peel you alive, flay you, crush your bones to powder—that is the true greatest beauty of All Under Heaven!”

At those words, Su Bai couldn’t help but throw his head back and howl.

“Ask the billions of people under Heaven whether they want you dead!”

Rumble!!!

Heaven and earth shook; winds and clouds reversed.

At that moment, the whole world—countless living beings—raised the same cry.

“Kill!”

“Kill this damned True Immortal, rid the human race of his harm!!!”

Endless, boundless fury burned in every human heart.

For four thousand years, the people had suffered devastation!

All because of him!

Now the War Emperor, the Heavenly Lord and others have paid with death.

Now it is his turn!

“Heh heh, lowly land, antlike folk, you even dare to slay an immortal?”

“Overestimating yourselves!”

The True Immortal’s face darkened, a deadly chill flashing in his eyes, terror to the extreme.

“Antlike folk—do you even deserve the name?”

“Die!”

Su Bai sneered, took a step, and actually charged straight into that gate.

At the same time, his Second True Form merged with his True Self, his combat power doubling again!!!

Ninth-grade might!!

At this moment Su Bai indisputably possessed the tremendous power of a ninth-grade heavenly immortal!

“Courting death!”

Seeing this, the True Immortal’s expression changed abruptly!

The terrifying aura emanating from Su Bai made him tremble all over.

Almost instinctively, he immediately unleashed his immortal art and attacked Su Bai.

“Die for me!”

“Boom!!!”

The sky shattered, the void boiled!

This was a battle between ninth-grade heavenly immortals!!

Enemies of that tier—even in the Immortal Realm—possessed supreme might, able to suppress the void with a flick of a finger!

In this lower realm, where the rules were incomplete, that amounted to a dimensionality-reducing strike!

If not for the world’s root blocking them, the fight between the two could have destroyed the entire world in an instant!
