2131 A Fat Pawn

More than a hundred Execution Guards were annihilated and Coiling Dragon Mountain Range was already noisy.

Many cultivators discussed fervently with flushed faces.

This battle had an extremely strong impact on many cultivators.

Prior to this, who would have believed that a Grade 6 Earth Immortal would dare to attack and kill Execution Guards?

Who would believe that a Grade 6 Earth Immortal could bury more than a hundred Execution Guards?

This battle was even more intense and shocking than the Immortal Sect Selection that had lasted for almost a year!

This was a direct challenge to the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom!

This was a head-on declaration of war against Prince Yuan Zuo!

Some people gloated and concluded that Su Zimo was definitely doomed.

Some people were disdainful. Su Zimo's actions were like striking a stone with an egg. If he wanted to fight against the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom, it was akin to an ant trying to shake a tree.

Some people felt pity that such a paragon was about to die before he could truly grow.

Within the carriage.

The girl gradually composed herself. "Su Zimo is indeed very powerful and can even defeat Prince Yun Lei. However, he's still not a match for Prince Yun Ting."

"Before Prince Yun Ting entered seclusion this time round, he was already a Grade 9 Earth Immortal. If he can come out of seclusion this time round, there's a high chance he can break through to the Heaven Immortal realm!"

"That's different,"

The plain-robed woman shook her head. "Apart from his talent, the reason why Yun Ting's cultivation speed is so shocking is because he's focused on cultivating the Dao of the sword and won't be distracted."

"However, Su Zimo's knowledge is extremely varied. From his attack earlier on, we can tell that he has dabbled in the methods and secret skills of immortals, Buddhas, fiends and even some demons. In fact, he has a deep understanding of them!"

"That's too difficult! You have to understand that a person's energy is limited. It's difficult to cultivate many different Dharmic Daos to their peak and it will take ten or a hundred times more time to raise one's cultivation realm."

"It's understandable for this person to cultivate the Dharmic Daos of the immortal, Buddhist and fiends. However, it's truly impressive that he's able to cultivate the secret skills of the demon race to such an extent."

"Even now, I'm curious as to what physique he has,"

The plain-robed woman praised Su Zimo immensely through her words.

"However, I feel that Su Zimo definitely can't compare to Prince Yun Ting given the methods he displayed!"

The girl said, "Prince Yun Ting has obtained two more inheritances over the years and is much stronger than before!"

"How do you know that he has no other methods?"

The plain-robed woman asked with a fake smile.

"Ah!"

The girl was stunned for a moment. "This person still has more trump cards? That's impossible, right?"

The plain-robed woman smiled faintly. "Everything else aside, have you seen him use any Dharmic treasures?"

"This..."

The girl hesitated for a moment and said sheepishly, "Perhaps he doesn't have any Dharmic treasures?"

The plain-robed woman looked at the figure in the valley and remained silent for a moment before saying slowly, "From what I know, he has an incredible Dharmic treasure with an extremely powerful background!"

"This person is unfathomable. Even I can't see through him. He might be Yun Ting's greatest opponent in the future."

...

In the valley.

Right in front of many cultivators, Su Zimo cleaned up the battlefield and put away the storage bags of the Execution Guards.

There might not be any supreme treasures in the storage bags of the Execution Guards. However, there were many cultivation resources like Essence Spirit Stones and Major Essence Condensation Pills.

Su Zimo had just experienced a huge battle and seemed to be exhausted. However, no one dared to fight him for any items.

Even an existence like Prince Yun Lei did not want to have a conflict with Su Zimo.

After tidying up the battlefield, Su Zimo turned to leave and many cultivators avoided him hurriedly.

Only Princess Scarlet Rainbow rode on her flying sword and arrived before Su Zimo, blocking his path forward.

"Hey,"

Princess Scarlet Rainbow raised her head slightly. "Since you're so powerful, I guess it'll be rough on you if you have to be my guard. How about this, I'll invite you as a guest who will stay by my side. There will be no hierarchy between us."

"Furthermore, I can share many of my cultivation resources with you. How about that?"

Su Zimo raised his head and glanced at Princess Scarlet Rainbow indifferently, asking, "I killed so many Execution Guards and destroyed one of Yuan Zuo's clones. Right now, he's waiting outside to kill me. Can you protect me?"

"I..."

Princess Scarlet Rainbow was momentarily speechless.

Although she was a princess of the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom, she was only an Earth Immortal after all.

Her status among the princes and princesses of the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom was not too high. It was not to the extent where she could go against Prince Yuan Zuo because of an outsider.

Su Zimo had long expected this outcome and was not surprised. He circled around Princess Scarlet Rainbow and continued forward.

Princess Scarlet Rainbow pouted her red lips and looked at Su Zimo's back view huffily, feeling aggrieved.

It was not because she was afraid of Prince Yuan Zuo or because she did not want to protect Su Zimo.

However, right now, she truly did not command enough power in the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom to fight against a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal expert like Yuan Zuo.

The reason why she took part in the Immortal Sect Selection this time round was also because she wanted to make use of the four immortal sects to achieve a meteoric rise in status!

As Su Zimo advanced, he thought about what might happen after the Immortal Sect Selection ended.

There were five more days before the selection ended.

At that time, he would have to face the enraged Prince Yuan Zuo!

Even Su Zimo could not be sure what would happen then.

His choice was also a gamble that the four immortal sects were not afraid of offending the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom.

As long as an immortal sect was willing to take him in, he could resolve the crisis five days later.

Of course, the most important thing for him right now was to gather enough Coiling Dragon Badges.

He had more than 1,200 Coiling Dragon Badges with him.

If he wanted to secure a spot in the top hundred, he would have to gather 1,800.

Four hours later.

On a mountain peak, Lie Feng led more than a hundred cultivators to rest and recuperate.

"Boss Lie Feng, I heard that the Execution Guards went over that side to kill someone called Su Zimo. Many cultivators went over to watch the battle,"

Someone said.

Lie Feng acknowledged and did not reply.

When another person heard that, he came over and asked, "Boss, why don't we take a look over there and watch the show?"

"Watch the show?"

Lie Feng sneered, "I reckon that Prince Yun Lei, Princess Scarlet Rainbow and all the ruthless people in the valley must have gone over for such a huge commotion! Aren't you afraid of losing our lives if we go and watch the show now?"

"You are right, boss,"

Immediately, a cultivator flattered with a smile.

"Eh?"

Right then, the cultivator pointed not far away and said, "Boss, look! A Grade 6 Earth Immortal is coming over! He's alone!"

"That sickly invalid?"

Suddenly, Lie Feng was invigorated as he bolted upright and looked over.

He had been brooding with pent-up anger when he thought about how he lost that sickly invalid earlier on.

"It's not the same person. However, this person must be a juicy piece of meat to be able to last until now. Shall we attack?" The person licked his lips with a searing gaze.

"Is there a need to ask?"

Lie Feng waved it off. "I'll leave this person to you guys. You guys can split the Coiling Dragon Badges you snatch among yourselves. I've got enough of them."
