Terran Guardian - Chapter 4037

Chapter 4012: This Poor Taoist’s Dream

“Shen Changqing…”

Luo Xinghe’s expression turned slightly cold as he read the message.

However,

he did not act rashly.

Now was not the time for a life-or-death struggle. He would have

the opportunity to settle scores with him once he entered the Immortal City of Longevity.

For Luo Xinghe, comprehending the Great Dao of his predecessors was the priority now.

The Crimson Jade Dao Palace rarely opened, and he certainly could not miss it.

He knew that

the next time the Crimson Jade Dao Palace would open was unknown, and

besides,

he had no chance of entering the Crimson Jade Dao Palace again.

After all, the Great Tribulation was approaching, and he himself needed to break through to the Half-Saint Realm.

Once he entered the Half-Saint Realm, it would be difficult to enter the Crimson Jade Dao Palace again.

Therefore,

this trip to the Crimson Jade Dao Palace was the last one.

Luo Xinghe would certainly not miss such an opportunity.

Although the Taiyi Immortal Sect was a supreme power with a strong foundation, and he was a Dao Child of the Taiyi Immortal Sect, he did not lack resources for cultivation.

But in reality, it was not so.

The Taiyi Immortal Sect was very large, with numerous disciples.

As a Dao Child, one can certainly obtain a considerable amount of cultivation resources, but that’s all.

The resources a sect can provide are ultimately limited. To truly reach the Saint level, or even higher, one must seek more opportunities.

The Primordial Dao of the Crimson Jade Dao Palace is undoubtedly an unparalleled opportunity.

…

“Pfft!”

The blood light dissipated, and the figure of the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor reappeared. He spat out another mouthful of blood, his entire aura weakened and feeble.

“Shen Changqing—!!!”

His expression was ferocious, his eyes filled with resentment and a hint of fear that even the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor himself didn’t realize.

No matter what,

the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor hadn’t expected the gap between himself and Shen Changqing to be so vast.

The power of that axe strike had made him feel the breath of death.

Therefore,

the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor had to summon the Dao Venerable’s Shroud to survive.

But thinking of the lost Dao Venerable’s Shroud, his heart ached so much he could hardly breathe.

That was the Dao Venerable’s Shroud!

Even in the outside world, it was a supreme treasure.

Having barely managed to find this item, and before he could even enjoy it, it had fallen into Shen Changqing’s hands. How could the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor not be filled with rage?

Treasures are incredibly rare!

Especially treasures of this level, which are extremely rare.

Now that the Dao Venerable’s Shroud had fallen into Shen Changqing’s hands, his hard-earned treasure had been used to benefit someone else, and he was filled with resentment. However,

in that situation, if it weren’t for the Dao Venerable’s Shroud protecting him, he would have perished on the spot.

Compared to his life , the Dao Venerable’s Shroud was something he had to discard. However, this defeat only intensified the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor’s hatred for Shen Changqing. “This matter will not be over with you!” His eyes flashed with murderous intent, but he lacked the courage to turn back and settle scores with Shen Changqing. Both were among the top ten cultivators on the Immortal Emperor’s Stele, but the difference in their abilities was immense. The Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor knew very well that if he dared to turn back, he would surely face certain death. To truly settle scores with him was beyond his current strength. But just then, a figure slowly appeared before the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor. The latter’s expression changed slightly, his eyes turning icy. “Who!” “Fellow Daoist Nine Mountains, there’s no need to be nervous. I’ve come to cooperate with you!” The newcomer smiled slightly, speaking calmly and unhurriedly. Despite the oppressive aura of a peak Immortal Emperor, his expression remained unchanged. Upon hearing this, the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor’s eyes remained icy. “Cooperate?” “It seems I’ve never met you before!” As the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor spoke, he was secretly on high alert. The cultivator before him had arrived abruptly, and most importantly, he hadn’t sensed much of a fluctuation in aura. It was clear that the newcomer’s strength was definitely not simple. Although everyone’s strength within the Crimson Jade Dao Palace was limited to the peak Immortal Emperor realm, the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor naturally had nothing to fear. But— in this world, there are always some cultivators who can break the rules. Just like the power Shen Changqing had used earlier, which had definitely broken the limits of the Immortal Emperor realm. That bronze giant axe was not comparable to ordinary treasures. Therefore… Upon seeing an unfamiliar cultivator, the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor dared not be careless. In the past, he would never have been so cautious. But there was no other way. He had learned from his mistakes. Having suffered so many losses, he naturally needed to change. The newcomer smiled faintly: “Although we have never met, we share a common enemy, which is the basis for our cooperation!” “An enemy?” “That’s right! It’s the Xuan Tian Sword Master, Shen Changqing. I have long harbored grudges against him, and I imagine Fellow Daoist Nine Mountains wishes to kill him. But you also know that his strength is extraordinary; one person alone cannot contend with him. Only through our cooperation can we truly suppress him!” The newcomer stood with his hands behind his back, revealing his true purpose. Hearing his words, the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor’s expression shifted slightly. To be honest, from the moment the other party arrived and announced their intention to cooperate, he had a vague suspicion. As for what the man before him said, the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor believed him to some extent. Shen Changqing must have made many enemies to have reached this point. Moreover.

Even without enemies, the other party’s existence still threatened the other Immortal Emperors.

It was understandable that some cultivators wanted to join forces against him.

With this in mind,

Immortal Emperor Jiushan remained calm and asked indifferently, “I never cooperate with those who hide their true intentions. If you want to cooperate, first reveal your identity.

Furthermore, I also need to see if you have the strength to cooperate!”

“Of course!”

The man smiled slightly, but the next instant, a strong warning rose in Immortal Emperor Jiushan’s heart, causing him to instinctively retreat.

But the moment Immortal Emperor Jiushan retreated, a palm appeared in his face.

“Not good!”

Immortal Emperor Jiushan’s pupils contracted sharply; he hadn’t expected the other party’s movements to be so fast.

In a flash ,

Immortal Emperor Jiushan threw a punch.

Fist and palm collided.

Terrifying power erupted from both centers.

Immortal Emperor Jiushan felt an astonishing force from his fist, causing his arm to tremble violently, and his body to involuntarily retreat several steps.

Looking at the newcomer again, the other party had already returned to the original spot.

It was as if the scene just now was merely an illusion. The Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor was secretly shaken

by this . “Your strength is indeed remarkable!” He gave the other party a deep look. Although he was not at his peak, the fact that the other party could force him back with a single palm strike spoke volumes about his strength. “Is such strength worthy of your attention, fellow Daoist?” “Of course it is sufficient, but I still do not know your identity!” ” This humble Daoist is Huang Liang, merely a rogue cultivator!” The newcomer smiled faintly and directly stated his name. Upon hearing this name, the Nine Mountains Immortal Emperor frowned slightly, searching his mind for the other party’s name, but unfortunately, he found nothing.
