Chapter 1517 - One Slap, and Immortals Kneel
Chapter 1517 - One Slap, and Immortals Kneel
The tall, stalwart man convulsed and cried out in agony on the ground.
Meanwhile, Su Yi’s words filled the air with an additional austere, murderous intent!
“If we let a thug like you go, what face will our Falling Cloud Immortal Sect have left?” A colorfully dressed woman stepped forth, holding a jade bottle aloft. She said coldly, “Everyone, let’s work together to capture him!”
“Got it!”
The Falling Cloud Immortal Sect experts gathered nearby all took action. There were over a hundred of them, and they attacked in waves, sweeping in like the tides. Soon, Su Yi was thoroughly surrounded on all sides.
All of them took out their treasures, and all of them seethed with murderous intent.
Terrifying pressure of the Immortal Dao blanketed heaven and earth and permeated the air.
Even Luo Yunzhong and the Emissaries’ of Welcoming’s expressions shifted.
This was turning into a major incident!
Yu Chen, Qin Suxin, and the others gasped.
Over a hundred immortals had taken action. The scale of this battle was unquestionably terrifying. Even just watching from afar made them gasp.
“You’re throwing your lives away.” Su Yi’s gaze was cold and sharp as he led Sword Immortal Qingshi ahead, entirely unperturbed.
“Get him!”
Bellows shook the heavens as over a hundred immortals attacked together, unleashing their treasures upon Su Yi without the slightest hesitation.
There was no doubt about it. After witnessing Su Yi’s terrifying strength, they dared not hold back. They’d chosen to attack with all their might.
Boom!
The sky shook, dispersing the clouds on all sides.
Resplendent immortal light rumbled and boomed throughout heaven and earth.
That terrifying current of destructive power enveloped the place Su Yi stood completely!
A hint of disdain rose unbidden to Su Yi’s face.
Back in the Manifesting Mortality Realm, he would've had to risk it all to break through such an encirclement.
But he’d already reached the pinnacle of Manifesting Truth, and over the past six months, he’d continuously steadied his Dao Heart and cultivation. He could step into the Manifesting Void Realm with ease whenever he wanted to!
Although a joint attack like this put pressure on him, he didn’t sense any sort of lethal threat.
“Break!”
A soft voice rang out.
Su Yi’s blue robes billowed around him as he took to the skies. His right hand suddenly slapped the air.
Like a lord slapping the table with justified fury!
Boom!
Immeasurably tyrannical sword force burst from Su Yi’s hand.
Heaven and earth abruptly stilled.
The violently swaying space, the shattering skies, the stinging, misty light... all froze in place, as if everything were restricted, unable to budge.
Even the hundred-plus immortal treasures descending upon him shook and let out ear-piercing wails.
A moment later—
A rapid-fire series of explosions rang out, like the beating of a drum.

Over a hundred immortal treasures exploded into pieces, shattering like glass. Countless colorful fragments scattered in all directions.
And a terrifying sword force descended. The hundred-plus immortals were like little boats swept up into a tidal wave. The impact sent them flying in different directions.
Blood splattered the air, and agonized cries rang out.
Suddenly, no one remained standing around Su Yi except for Sword Immortal Immortal Qingshi!
“This...” Everyone present was astonished. Without exception, their eyes widened, and they found themselves at a loss for words.
One palm strike, and he’d forced immortals to their knees!
The crowd practically thought they were dreaming. This completely overturned their perception of cultivation.
Who could have imagined that a cultivator fresh out of the Human Realm and yet to reach Cloud Soaring could have done this?
“Too strong...” Even Yu Chen’s Dao Heart trembled. Waves of astonishment coursed through him as he completely lost his cool.
The other new ascendants gazed upon Su Yi as if he were a god!
Luo Yunzhong and the other Emissaries of Welcoming looked at each other in astonishment too.
Even Sword Immortal Qingshi, who understood Su Yi better than the rest, was dazed upon witnessing this. He murmured to himself, So, Fellow Daoist Su is already this strong!
“That kid... he....” The man in Confucian robes who’d secretly conversed with Su Yi earlier practically jumped to his feet. He couldn’t even find words to express his emotions.
......
The peak of White Deer Mountain.
Beneath an ancient pine tree.
“Word has already leaked. The top immortal factions had already commanded their top experts in the Jing Province to rush to White Deer Mountain’s Ascension Ground.” freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
“Their higher-ups are rushing to the Jing Province as we speak!”
“When you receive this message, bring the ascendants back to your Falling Cloud Immortal Sect immediately!”
“Remember, you must be quick!”
“If this mission fails, we’ll hold your Falling Cloud Immortal Sect accountable!”
...Liu Yunjing had only just received this message, and his expression was unprecedentedly solemn.
A year ago, the Church of the Pure One started making arrangements to seal off all information regarding the Jing Province’s Ascension Ground. I wouldn’t have thought it’d leak nonetheless... Liu Yunjing exclaimed inwardly.
He suddenly realized that the situation was increasingly urgent.
But he was still confused. Just why did the top immortal factions attach such importance to these new ascendants?
Why go so far as to compete over them with the Church of the Pure One?
He soon reached a conclusion. “There’s got to be something going on here! Perhaps, there’s someone among the ascendants’ ranks they’re dead-set on finding!”
Liu Yunjing rose, then turned and shot toward the Ascension Ground. He dared not delay, so he planned to lead the ascendants away immediately, as well as the Emissaries of Welcoming!
But before he got far, agonized cries shook the heavens. They emanated from the Ascension Ground.
“Did something happen?” Liu Yunjing’s heart clenched, and his expression shifted. He’d only just received word from a prominent member of the Church of the Pure One that if this mission failed, they’d hold the Falling Cloud Immortal Sect responsible.
The blink of an eye later, something unexpected happened in the Ascension Ground. How could Liu Yunjing not panic?
He flew with all his might, and within a few moments, he’d reached the Immortal Transformation Pool.
There, he saw his fallen subordinates all over the place, as well as the departing forms of Su Yi and Sword Immortal Qingshi.
It wasn’t an external enemy? Liu Yunjing was stunned. And here he’d thought experts of other factions had shown up to fight over the ascendants. Now, it seemed obvious that that wasn’t the case.
As his thoughts raced, Liu Yunjing locked firmly onto Su Yi and Sword Immortal Qingshi. He said icily, “Stop right there!”
His voice boomed like lightning throughout heaven and earth. Terrifying pressure enveloped the entire area.
This was the might of a Void Realm True Immortal!
Luo Yunzhong and the other Emissaries of Welcoming couldn’t help but sweat on Su Yi’s behalf.
Void Realm True Immortals were top experts by the standards of the Jing Province, second only to Immortal Lords!
And Liu Yunjing was the seventh elder of the Falling Cloud Immortal Sect. He’d been famous for a long time!
Even the sects behind Luo Yunzhong and the other Emissaries of Welcoming wouldn’t have dared treat such a Void Realm True Immortal with disrespect!
This was the suppression of a high cultivation base.
Su Yi stopped in place, then looked askance at the airborne Liu Yunjing. “Early-stage Void Realm cultivation? At least for now, you’re worthy of being my opponent.”
When he looked at Liu Yunjing, he sensed a threat!
But this didn’t scare him. No, it thrilled him; he was like a predator rejoicing at the sight of prey.
Earlier, his inability to gauge his own strength had given him a real headache. This was perhaps an opportunity!
When they heard Su Yi’s words, the crowd’s eyelids twitched. This guy is brazen enough to clash with a Void Realm True Immortal?!
Liu Yunjing was startled too, and he furrowed his brow. “Were you the one who defeated the members of my Falling Cloud Immortal Sect?”
Su Yi nodded. “That’s right.”
Liu Yunjing was inwardly startled, and he found this hard to believe. “Who can tell me how a new ascendant like him pulled that off?”
One of the sprawled-out Falling Cloud Immortal Sect experts said in a quavering voice, “Seventh Elder, he just pressed his palm down and forced us all to the ground. He even destroyed all of our immortal treasures!”
The other defeated Falling Cloud Immortal Sect experts all lowered their heads in shame.
Liu Yunjing was completely gobsmacked. One palm strike, and he suppressed over a hundred Universe Realm Immortals?
“Are you... serious?” Liu Yunjing couldn’t help but ask.
There was no doubt about it. This Void Realm True Immortal found all of this difficult to accept.
“Your Excellency Liu, that is indeed the case. However, our young friend didn’t start this conflict. He was just trying to visit White Deer Cliff to alleviate his boredom,” said Luo Yunzhong. The other Emissaries of Welcoming nodded along.
He was both answering Liu Yunjing’s question and speaking up on Su Yi’s behalf.
Liu Yunjing’s frown deepened. He was now fully aware that something strange was afoot, and the way he looked at Su Yi changed completely.
“How about it? Want to duel me?” asked Su Yi.
The crowd exchanged glances. They were practically startled out of their wits. Since when did cultivators fresh out of the Human Realm propose duels with Void Realm True Immortals?
“No wonder he turned up his nose at my offer...” The man in Confucian robes watched, his expression shifting and uncertain. He suddenly realized that during his earlier secret conversation with Su Yi, he’d come across as nothing more than a clown!
Liu Yunjing sank into silence.
After a while, he took a deep breath and said, “We’ve come here on orders, not to cause problems for you. We humbly request your patience. Please, don’t make this difficult for us.”
As he spoke, he clasped his fist and inclined his head in apparent apology.
This scene left everyone stunned. A Void Realm True Immortal dares not agree to a duel with a new ascendant?
But some people realized that Liu Yunjing wasn’t afraid of Su Yi. No, he was concerned about something else.
Su Yi was instantly disappointed. “If you don’t want to fight, get out of my way.”
With that, he continued leading Sword Immortal Qingshi away.
“Wait!” Liu Yunjing said hurriedly.
“You want to stop me?” Su Yi raised his eyebrows.
Liu Yunjing shook his head. “You don’t know this, but unpredictable peril is soon to befall this Ascension Ground. If you want to leave, why not leave with me? When we reach the Falling Cloud Immortal Sect, I assure you we’ll treat you as our distinguished guest.”
He swept his gaze across Yu Chen and the others, then said, “That goes for all of you too. It’s only by coming with us that you can escape disaster.”
The crowd’s expressions shifted; they could smell the danger in the air.
“Your Excellency Liu, what exactly is going on?” Luo Yunzhong couldn’t help but ask.
Liu Yunjing hesitated, then said, “Some immortal factions have sent their top experts in the Jing Province our way. Their goal is to seize the cultivators who just arrived from the Human Realm!”
The atmosphere was instantly tense and stifled.
Yu Chen, Qin Suxin, and the others could tell that the situation was becoming all the more perilous!
Su Yi narrowed his eyes. If Liu Yunjing was telling the truth, he had reason to believe that all of this was targeting him!
