Two Realms: I Will Become the Immortal Emperor

Chapter 366: Chapter 337: Battle the Golden Core

A dead silence fell over the city wall.

Hunted by seven Foundation Establishment Cultivators, they had all thought this Nameless Sword Cultivator was as good as dead.

But no one had expected that in the short time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, six of the assailants were already dead, leaving only Lu Kai lying there all alone. And as for the Nameless Sword Cultivator...

He hadn’t even taken a single step. He had done all this with just a wave of his hand.

"F-Fellow Daoist..."

Lu Kai’s face was deathly pale.

Suddenly, seeing Chen Che’s gaze fall upon him, he knelt without a moment’s hesitation and began to kowtow repeatedly.

"Senior, Senior... I was wrong! My Dao heart was clouded by dust, and I was led astray by others! That’s why I came here. I’ll never dare to do it again..."

BANG! BANG! BANG!

He slammed his head against the ground like a pestle grinding garlic, each impact making a dull thud.

"There’s a next time?"

Chen Che said softly.

The scene before him had utterly shattered Lu Kai’s courage, and hearing that voice only made him kowtow more frantically.

Seven Major Cultivators... how long had it been? And now he was the only one left. Regret flooded his heart. If he hadn’t succumbed to the temptations within Faqian City, how could he have fallen to such a state?

At this thought, he slammed his head down even faster. The ground began to dent, and blood streamed from his forehead, forming a puddle at his knees.

...

"..."

As a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Jin Wu’s vision was sharp enough to see the distant scene with perfect clarity.

On the city wall.

The other Cultivators also let out gasps of shock.

"They’re dead?"

"What kind of power is that...?"

"You can’t provoke someone like that. You just can’t."

This outcome was far beyond what anyone had expected.

Hearing the surrounding chatter, young Zhou Lian’s face lit up with joy. He didn’t understand the battle, but he knew that the senior who was going to take him away had won...

However.

Just as that sliver of a smile appeared, it froze solid on his face.

’Greed is a terrible thing!’

Amidst the discussions, Jin Wu cursed his luck. ’This man is not to be provoked! How did I let avarice cloud my judgment... With this level of power, he must be just one step away from Core Formation, right? I’d better not leave the city for the next few years. He probably already knows about my correspondence with Ding Peng... Huh!?’

Having inexplicably made such an enemy, Jin Wu was filled with unease, thinking he would have to be on his guard for the next few years. Just as he was about to return to his inn, a sudden breeze swept past him. A glance from the corner of his eye caught a figure brushing past his shoulder.

Suddenly, Jin Wu stopped in his tracks.

It wasn’t just him. The other Cultivators who had been about to disperse all stopped simultaneously. Their eyes were fixed on a single figure with flowing sleeves and a body suffused with Evil Qi, who passed straight through the city gate and strode outside.

"Bai..."

In the presence of a Golden Core True Master, even within Faqian City where killing was forbidden, the Low Tier Cultivators could not hide their awe.

Only after the figure had departed did the silent city wall erupt into a commotion.

"Is True Master Bai going to kill him too?"

"The two of them have a grudge?"

"It seems this kid put a price on Wanjia’s head at the Slaughter Tower. And just a moment ago, he slighted Senior Bai in Qianyuan Hall. Now this is going to be a good show..."

Listening to the discussions around him, Jin Wu was silent for a moment before turning his head to look into the distance. He said meaningfully, "Although the process had some slight changes, the final outcome remains exactly the same."

Beside him, Zhou Lian’s face turned ashen, completely drained of color.

...

"Senior..."

As Lu Kai desperately kowtowed, he heard no reply from Chen Che and was confused.

Suddenly, the hairs on his neck stood on end. He felt a great terror descend without warning. He didn’t dare look up, but he could feel a powerful aura, like Tai Mountain itself, pressing down before him.

Lu Kai couldn’t help but look up, stunned.

He discovered a middle-aged man suffused with Evil Qi had appeared before him. The man stood in the void as if weightless, his robes fluttering and his long hair whipping about like wild pythons. He looked down on them like a god or a demon.

A voice like a heavenly decree descended:

"Junior, what’s the rush? I remember you disrespecting me in Qianyuan Hall. Are you scared now?"

"This is?"

Lu Kai’s heart trembled. A thousand thoughts raced through his mind, and he instantly understood.

’The Golden Core True Master he provoked has come for revenge.’

With that thought, he stopped kowtowing and secretly raised his head to study Chen Che. To his surprise, Chen Che didn’t show the terror Lu Kai expected when facing a Golden Core True Master. Instead, he flicked his fingers, his expression as calm and nonchalant as ever.

"Face isn’t given by others; it’s earned by oneself! Aren’t you afraid that if you chase me like this, I still won’t give you any?"

"Haha..."

Bai Shibao let out a wild laugh, the fury in his eyes almost tangible.

"Junior, I really don’t know where you get this confidence. But you will regret trying so hard to provoke me. You’re not a Golden Core, so you have no idea how terrifying a Golden Core True Master can be. What’s more, I am a Beast Master!"

With that.

He waved his right hand. A Jade Ring on his finger flashed, and a Black-Scaled Demon Python flew out. The Demon Python was a good seventeen or eighteen zhang long, its body as thick as a pavilion, with gill-like spines growing from its cheeks.

With every breath it took, the gill-spines fanned out like giant fans, stirring up a foul stench and black mist.

BOOM—

The moment the Demon Python appeared, it was wreathed in black Demon Qi as it danced in the air.

Its massive body flickered in and out of sight within the black mist, exuding an intense pressure.

Lu Kai’s heart seized. Unable to suppress his terror any longer, he practically scrambled and rolled away. Chen Che didn’t spare him a single glance, and Bai Shibao merely shot a look from the corner of his eye, paying no mind to this ant.

His eyes darted around, and a faint smile played on his lips as he chuckled.

"Junior, how about it? Scared now, are you?"

"Yes, I’m terrified."

Chen Che nodded slightly, but his expression didn’t change in the slightest.

’This Black-Scaled Demon Python may look powerful, but its Innate bloodline is weak. Reaching the Golden Core Realm is its limit. If Little Chick were here, it probably wouldn’t last half the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.’

"You’re courting death—"

Bai Shibao’s gaze sharpened.

He had intended to toy with Chen Che for a bit, but the man’s attitude made it impossible for him to suppress his rage any longer. With a bare-handed wave, the Black-Scaled Demon Python roared. Its massive body twisted violently, and amidst the surging Demon Qi, its form instantly swelled several times over, growing to a size of forty to fifty zhang in a flash.

WHOOSH—

As its body surged forward, it kicked up a rolling demonic wind.

As its enormous body swept across the ground, it carved a deep trench in the earth with a deafening, crushing sound.

"ROAR!"

When it was three zhang away, the Demon Python suddenly opened its maw. Its serpentine mouth, filled with interlocking fangs like a dog’s teeth, looked as savage as that of an Ancient Fierce Beast.

Its throat was a bottomless abyss.

SWOOSH—

A strong wind billowed, and dust danced in the air.

In the crowd’s view, the space between the man and the python was completely enveloped by the Demon Python’s Demon Qi. As the python moved, the Demon Qi swirled into a vortex, distorting their vision.

This pounce was so swift and fierce that the hearts of many Foundation Establishment Cultivators on the wall sank.

If it were them, they would have no chance of survival.

Many of the Golden Core True Masters who had rushed over from Qianyuan Hall had sneers on their faces. For a dignified Golden Core True Master to strike so viciously, it was clear Bai Shibao had been thoroughly angered by this kid. But they all watched as if it were just a joke.

Chen Che stood his ground with the Sword Box on his back, looking up slightly. Before the Demon Python, he was like an ant, as insignificant as a weed beneath a towering tree. It seemed he would be crushed to dust in an instant.

"What a pity..."

Jin Wu clicked his tongue. He wasn’t lamenting who would win or lose, but rather the fact that if this person died at Bai Shibao’s hands, all of his possessions would have nothing to do with him.

Although Lu Kai was terrified, he couldn’t help but let the corner of his mouth lift in a slight smile. He wasn’t going to die today.

But before he could even feel relieved, the next scene struck him with horror!

The Black-Scaled Demon Python reached Chen Che in the blink of an eye.

And at that very moment, Chen Che slowly raised a hand. The Sword Box on his back trembled with a "VMMMM," and a flash of rainbow light shot out.

TING!

A soft chime rang out.

In the next instant, a tearing sound echoed between heaven and earth.

SCHLICK—

The rainbow light burst forth, like a rainbow piercing the sun, dazzling beyond compare. None of those present could imagine the terror of this single sword strike. They only felt that in an instant, everything in the Sword Rainbow’s path was split in two.

The black demonic wind suddenly split apart, like a curtain torn open to reveal the clear sky above.

"HSSSSS!"

The Demon Python let out a hiss, its scales standing on end all over its body.

SHRRRIP!

However, before it could react, amid a tremendous ripping sound, the Sword Rainbow, mixed with a bloody light, passed through the Demon Python’s body in a flash. The massive body of this Golden Core Demon Python was torn in two by the Sword Rainbow in a single moment.

The splattering blood, carried by the Sword Qi, was forcefully smeared into a bloodstain a hundred zhang long on the ground!

Then.

The Demon Python, sliced from head to tail, looked to the onlookers like a painting that had been torn down the middle.

"Golden Core?"

The city wall fell silent for a moment, then exploded with shouts:

"WHOA—"

"This kid... no, this Senior is actually a Golden Core True Master?"

"He hid it too well..."

Only another Golden Core can kill a Golden Core.

Jin Wu’s heart trembled violently.

His face turned deathly pale.

Normally, when Golden Core True Masters come to Faqian City, they don’t hide their Cultivation Realm to avoid trouble.

"This..."

Lu Kai was so frightened his liver and gallbladder were about to burst.

"Even if you are a Golden Core, you will die today... Kill him for me!"

Bai Shibao’s expression was grim as he roared in fury.

He had guessed that this person was trying every trick to provoke him, possibly to lure him out of the city; he had considered all sorts of possibilities. But he never expected that the other party was also a Golden Core True Master. And what’s more, he had killed one of his Golden Core Spirit Pets on the spot.

He spread his hands, and two Jade Bracelets on his wrists shone brightly, releasing several Great Demons.

Among them, a green and a red Giant Flood Dragon flew out, one after the other. These two Giant Flood Dragons were a size smaller than the previous Black-Scaled Python, but their auras were no weaker. The remaining five were Foundation Establishment Great Demons...

They coiled, soared, entwined, or stood erect, and in a mere instant, they had surrounded the area with Chen Che at its center.

A surging Demon Qi blotted out the sky for over a thousand zhang in every direction.

The moment they appeared, they lunged ferociously at Chen Che.

"Excellent timing!"

Chen Che roared with laughter, his robes billowing as his aura climbed higher and higher.
