Chapter 421: The Heaven Immortals' Assault

Upon seeing the cursed effigies charging over, Xiao Nanfeng smiled. "Let me test out the strength of my Immortal body, then."

His ten golden crows shot out of his body, each now massive in size. Their gold-burnished feathers were like divine armaments that slew all the cursed effigies at the front.

"These golden crows are all Earth Immortals. They're incredibly strong!"

"He's an Earth Immortal too. Quick, we have to attack!"

The cursed effigies continued to charge toward Xiao Nanfeng.

An ox-headed humanoid managed to block a golden crow's attack.

"An Earth Immortal cursed effigy?" Xiao Nanfeng narrowed his eyes.

The next moment, amidst heated fighting, more Earth Immortal cursed effigies emerged to block the golden crows' attacks. The remaining cursed effigies attacked Xiao Nanfeng.

Xiao Nanfeng shot forward, drawing his divine undying blade.

With one slash, he bisected an Earth Immortal.

"What incredible power. We have to attack together!" the cursed effigies exclaimed.

"Kill!" Xiao Nanfeng roared, slashing madly around him with his blade.

His fighting spirit soared as he cut apart all foes who stood in his way, but there were quite a few Earth Immortal cursed effigies left. He was bound to miss one sooner or later; an Earth Immortal cursed effigy's sword struck his back.

The cursed effigy's Immortal sword shattered.

"What? How can this Immortal body be so potent?!" the cursed effigy exclaimed.

Xiao Nanfeng retaliated and cut him in half.

Xiao Nanfeng, outnumbered one to a hundred, nevertheless seemed to have the advantage. Fragments of cursed effigies dissolved all around him.

The blood peach tree suddenly appeared, its roots stabbing into the cursed effigies that Xiao Nanfeng took down. Some cursed effigies pursued it, but it was faster than they were.

"He's too strong. Inform the king immediately!"

"This peach tree cursed effigy's trying to absorb my cursed spiritual power!"

"Damn it, we have to flee!"

"Why? Am I not enough for you?" the white-robed man retorted coldly.

"They aren't here?"

"With me around, what's the point of having them come? His Highness is interested in your copper blade, your imperial seal, and your Yanluo Court. All I have to do is hand him those three treasures. The rest of the secrets on your body—they'll be mine." The white-robed man smiled.

His body flickered out of sight as he struck at Xiao Nanfeng again.

Xiao Nanfeng grimaced as he defended with his blade, but he was sent flying once again. His divine undying blade slipped out of his grip and far from reach.

Xiao Nanfeng smashed into the ground. He simply couldn't defend against a Human Immortal's strength.

"It looks like I've been too careful. You can't use that blade attack that killed Yin without any preparation, can you? How will you be able to resist without that blade? An Earth Immortal simply can't defeat a Heaven Immortal." The white-robed man laughed as he shot over.

He attacked swiftly, not giving Xiao Nanfeng any opportunity to rest. He again appeared before Xiao Nanfeng and unleashed a palm strike, sending him flying.

Xiao Nanfeng crashed into the ground for a third time. A plume of dust formed all around him. The only reason he hadn't been injured, even against a Heaven Immortal, was because of the strength of the Immortal body that he had cultivated.

"Your Immortal body really is strong—but soon it'll be mine. I have a spiritual cultivation technique designed specifically for interrogation. You'll beg me to kill you by the time I'm done with you. I'll make you reveal all your secrets, haha!"

Xiao Nanfeng was sent flying time and again. The cultivators of the alliance, hidden in the distance, fretted.

"Is that a Heaven Immortal? He's simply too strong!"

"He's striking rapidly at City Lord Xiao, as though worried that he might be able to counterattack."

"What should we do?"

The cultivators watched on anxiously.

Although Xiao Nanfeng was sent flying time and again, he was largely uninjured. Even so, he would have to do something about it quickly. Strong though the Imposing Avatar of Rulai was, essentially all its potency was in defense at the moment.

Xiao Nanfeng crashed into the ruins of a mountain.

"Xiao Nanfeng, it looks like you don't have any trump cards up your sleeve. I'll claim your soul for myself, then!" The white-robed man laughed as he shot into the ruins.

Just then, a huge howl came from within, so loud that it shattered the boulders and rock fragments in the vicinity and formed a tempest. The white-robed man was sent flying far faster than when he entered.

He spat out a mouthful of blood in mid-air as he stabilized himself, glancing at the dust emerging from the ruins in shock. "Impossible. Who are you?!"

From within the ruins emerged a dragon-headed humanoid dressed in an emperor's clothes, a crown on his head. A domineering aura suffused the air around him. He was the one who had sent the white-robed man flying.

"That's the Dragon Yanluo's cursed spiritual avatar!" one cultivator shouted from the forest in the distance.
