Chapter 900: Xiao Nanfeng's Rampage

The twelve golden cultivators' unique cultivation technique didn't shine in terms of offense, but rather defense.

Even when facing thrice their number of Golden Immortals, they were able to hold their ground. Though they were enjoying the savage beating, everyone else was certain that they were in dire straits.

"They won't be able to hold out any longer! Seniors, we have to activate the formation and save them," Blue Jade fretted.

Xiao Nanfeng shook his head. "Don't worry. Just focus on maintaining the integrity of this barrier and protecting Blue Lantern."

"But—" Blue Jade murmured.

"Don't worry, Blue Jade," Yu'er said.

Only then did Blue Jade and the others relent.

Just then, a Golden Immortal shouted from afar, "These are twelve of Xiao Nanfeng's subordinates. They're particularly difficult to deal with, and we certainly won't be able to kill them for the time being. We'll leave a group of cultivators to hold them back. The rest of you, follow me and attack! We have to prevent Blue Lantern from attuning to the bronze compass!"

The Golden Immortals nodded in assent. They barged forward, knocking aside the twelve golden cultivators. Twelve remained behind to take them on, while the remaining Golden Immortals shot toward the defensive formation.

"Protect the formation at any cost!" Blue Jade shouted.

By then, the Golden Immortals had closed in on them.

"Break!" someone shouted.

Twenty-four Golden Immortals struck the defensive formation simultaneously, causing it to shake violently from the assault.

"Damn it, there are too many of them!" Blue Jade shouted.

The twenty-four Golden Immortals were waving their arms and triggering offensive formations all around them. Tornadoes, meteors, and other disasters rained down on the valley.

"Emperor Xiao, we won't be able to defend the valley for long. Flee with Senior Brother!" Blue Jade shouted.

"There's no need. I'll defend the valley," Xiao Nanfeng said.

"What?" Blue Jade exclaimed, stupefied.

How would Xiao Nanfeng take on twenty-four Golden Immortals by himself?

"I'll join you," Yu'er said."

"Don't worry. Stay on guard here. I'll be able to finish off this rabble in no time."

"But—" Yu'er was still worried.

"If I falter, you can step in then. Conserve your energy in case anything unexpected happens," Xiao Nanfeng murmured.

"Fine—but be careful, alright?"

"Very well," Xiao Nanfeng said.

Xiao Nanfeng emerged from the barrier.

"It's Xiao Nanfeng! Watch out. There's something extraordinary about him," a Golden Immortal warned.

"So what? Everyone's a Golden Immortal in the wild wastes hidden realm. We have the numerical advantage. Kill him!" another Golden Immortal shouted.

Three Golden Immortals charged confidently at Xiao Nanfeng.

"Fools," Xiao Nanfeng said coldly. He drew his divine undying blade.

"Formation of the Flaming Sea!" a Golden Immortal intoned.

The three Golden Immortals activated a formation simultaneously, summoning a massive wave of flame to engulf Xiao Nanfeng.

"Be careful, Nanfeng!" Yu'er cried out.

"Damn it, that's the Formation of the Flaming Sea! It's a peak Golden Immortal formation! Be careful, Emperor Xiao!" Blue Jade called out.

The three Golden Immortals sneered, confident that this attack would grievously injure Xiao Nanfeng.

"Die!" Xiao Nanfeng roared, swinging his blade.

In the blink of an eye, only ten Golden Immortals remained.

The Golden Immortals hadn't understood the extent of Xiao Nanfeng's strength. How were they supposed to fight him now?

"Run!" someone shouted.

The Golden Immortals scattered.

Not far away, the Golden Immortals fighting against the golden cultivators watched on with disbelief.

They each took a blow from the golden cultivators as they turned to run.

"I knew His Majesty was incredible, but to think he could have killed fourteen Golden Immortals in an instant..." Ye Dafu sucked in a deep breath.

The golden cultivators swallowed a gulp of saliva. Thank goodness Xiao Nanfeng was on their side!

Xiao Nanfeng glanced coldly at the fleeing Golden Immortals. "Why run? Come on. I'll even give you a chance to erect a formation. There are so many more of you—what're you afraid of? I'll even call off Ye Dafu and the others. You can come at me together."

By then, the Golden Immortals were already flying swiftly away. They knew better than to fall for Xiao Nanfeng's trick.

Xiao Nanfeng wasn't in a rush himself. What he needed to do was stall until Blue Lantern attuned to the bronze compass; there was plenty of time to flush them out.

"Ye Dafu, deal with the aftermath," Xiao Nanfeng commanded.

"Understood!" Ye Dafu and the golden cultivators shot toward the Golden Immortals' corpses.

Some of the Golden Immortals were Immortal spirits, who could be made into pills.

Just as everyone thought that the crisis had been resolved, a flash of blue light shot straight toward Xiao Nanfeng.

"Be careful, Nanfeng!" Yu'er cried out.

"A Boundless Immortal? How can this be? Aren't Boundless Immortals supposed to be forbidden in this realm?"

The Boundless Immortal was, naturally, none other than Sage Qingyun. He had been planning to wait until both sides weakened each other, but there was no chance of that now.

Having learned his lesson, he didn't intend to give Xiao Nanfeng any time to prepare. He would cripple Xiao Nanfeng with one blow.

"Die!" Xiao Nanfeng thundered, slashing forward with his blade.

Sage Qingyun's punch struck the blade in a massive, fiery shockwave that sent Ye Dafu and the others flying.

Even his charge had been stopped by Xiao Nanfeng's swing. He gaped in disbelief. "What incredible strength."

While his punch shattered Xiao Nanfeng's sword technique, it failed to overpower Xiao Nanfeng. Sage Qingyun didn't dare hesitate. He flashed before Xiao Nanfeng to deliver another crushing punch.

Xiao Nanfeng's eyes turned cold. "Imposing Avatar of Rulai!"

Golden light radiated from Xiao Nanfeng's entire body as he braced against Sage Qingyun's incoming punch.

The punch landed on Xiao Nanfeng's golden body, unleashing a fiery shockwave that expanded in all directions.

Even Xiao Nanfeng was sent flying.

"Nanfeng!" Yu'er cried out.

"I'm fine. Stay in there."

Xiao Nanfeng quickly stabilized himself. He landed on the ground, his face calm, not visibly injured.

"What?" Yu'er exclaimed.

"He blocked a blow from a Boundless Immortal?"

"Impossible. Isn't he a Golden Immortal? How can a Golden Immortal's body withstand a Boundless Immortal's strike?"

"Is his physical body even stronger than that of those golden cultivators?!"

The Golden Immortals watching the fight gaped at each other.

Even the Fenghuang cultivators were caught by surprise. They still seemed stunned from the power that Xiao Nanfeng had revealed.

Even Sage Qingyun glanced subconsciously at his fist, as if he himself couldn't believe that his empowered punch had been useless against Xiao Nanfeng.
