“Don’t look down on the Immortal Court,” Xuanwu said. “Our Five Element Annihilation isn’t only a material attack, but also a soul attack. The Nine Heavens Emperor must have killed himself to save his soul from our combined innate ability. Just because he perished doesn’t mean he won’t have a chance to revive himself. Although the cost is high, the Immortal Court is likely willing to pay such a price to revive such a genius.”

“No wonder,” Demon Emperor Blacktiger. “He must have erupted his technique to throw off the influence of our ability and then used some sort of special method on his soul. What I’m more curious about is why your innate ability faltered earlier, giving that human a chance to save himself.”

As someone who had undergone reincarnation countless times, Xuanwu had lived far longer than the three demon emperors combined. Naturally, he was a senior, but this didn’t stop Demon Emperor Blacktiger from passive-aggressively blaming Xuanwu. Neither Demon Emperor Redraco nor Demon Empress Bluefeather stopped him. Part of the reason was because Demon Emperor Blacktiger had a confrontational personality, and the other aspect was Xuanwu himself.

“It’s my fault,” Xuanwu said, not shirking the blame. “While I was casting my innate ability, my soul link fluctuated, distracting me.”

“Did something happen to that human?” Demon Emperor Redraco asked. Although Xuanwu said distracted, the effects should be far more serious than what he said. “Let me contact the Patriarch and see if any accidents happened. I can’t contact him?!”

Upon hearing this, both Demon Emperor Blacktiger and Demon Empress Bluefeather became solemn. They also attempted to contact the Void Continent, but they failed.

“Something happened,” Demon Empress Bluefeather said. No one who reached her level would be dumb, so she quickly deduced the cause and effect. “The humans must have attacked the Void Continent. Their current offensive is nothing more than a distraction. Divide and conquer, a classic tactic.”

“Damn humans, insidious and cunning,” Demon Emperor Blacktiger spat. “And that San Something. If he hadn’t forced you into a contract, would you have such a weakness and make such a mistake? If the humans attacked a hundred years later, we could have terminated that soul link and kill that damn sinner.”

“Now’s not that time to argue about trivial matters. Until the soul contract is destroyed, that San Jiuling must be protected,” Demon Emperor Redraco said. “End the innate ability. Since the Nine Heavens Emperor already committed suicide, there’s no point in wasting our energy. Since the humans dare to attack our headquarters, we must make them pay the price. Slaughter their monarchs!”

“Slaughter!”

“Slaughter!!”

“Slaughter!!!”

The four of them canceled their innate abilities at once and stared at the humans with malice. Even the seemingly gentle Xuanwu was no different. After all, the reason for his reincarnation was because the humans caused his fall.

The snowflakes controlled by Sword Empress Snowsword trembled. She turned toward the four demon emperors, and a drop of sweat slid down her pale skin. Aside from Xi Tianyi, only a few true immortals perished under the Five Element Annihilation. This was because of her foresight, but she would rather one hundred monarchs perish than Xi Tianyi falling—at least until Xi Tianyi severely injured the Four Divine Beasts.

In terms of value, ten immortal emperors might not amount to one Xi Tianyi. He had fully demonstrated his value in the few decades on the front line. The Numinous Sword Sect had always known that Xi Tianyi possessed an extravagant amount of qi reserves, but only in the past decade did they fully comprehend how monstrous it was.

Xi Tianyi’s potential and power made the Numinous Sword Sect wary of him. If the Demon Clan claimed they wanted to kill Xi Tianyi the most, the Numinous Sword Sect would definitely fight them for that claim.

Sword Empress Snowsword’s plan didn’t really throw Xi Tianyi under the bus, so to speak. Her plan was reasonable without any faults, but in her heart, she wanted him and the three demon emperors to perish together. If she could borrow the Demon Clan to get rid of this scourge for the Numinous Sword Sect, she was very willing, even if they had to pay a high price in the present. It was better than paying a higher price in the future.

Although Sword Empress Snowsword knew that the outcome would remain the same even if she changed the arrangements, she couldn’t help but regret it. After all, once Xi Tianyi perished, she was their next target. Still, that didn’t mean she would wait for death.

Instantly, the once gentle falling snow whirled and turned into a ferocious blizzard. The lethality of those small snowflakes directly rose to the monarch-level. Sword Empress Snowsword had the confidence that even an immortal sovereign couldn’t withstand the barrage of hundreds of thousands of snowflakes.

Unfortunately, she underestimated the fleshly power of demons.

Xuanwu paid no heed to the blizzard and broke through the domain. The snowflakes only left light marks, if any, on his body.

Among the four, the first to reach Sword Empress Snowsword was actually a turtle. Speed was not Xuanwu’s strong point, but through his many reincarnations and thick foundation, his weakest aspect surpassed many cultivators’ strongest aspect, like Demon Empress Bluefeather.

Unlike the Black Tortoise, Demon Empress Bluefeather ignited the feathers on her body and unleashed a domain of flames. The sweltering heat dissolved the sword empress’s snow domain and diminished its size. The demon empress would have used her realm artifact, but it was still recovering and using it would lengthen the time.

Demon Emperor Blacktiger directly slashed out with his claws upon reaching Sword Empress Snowsword. The claws on his right paw weren’t black like on his other limbs. Instead, it resembled a painting of a vast world filled with metal veins shaped into the form of a claw. This was his realm artifact, the Metal Source Talons.

How could Sword Empress Snowsword withstand such an assault?

Demon Empress Bluefeather’s flames countered her snowflake domain. In the contest of ice and fire, fire won, causing her strength to plummet. Xuanwu didn’t do anything extra. He just used his gigantic body to ram into her. Even so, it already caused massive damage to the sword empress.

Sword Empress Snowsword felt as if she just vomited half of her internal organs. Had she not condense an armor of ice, Xuanwu’s attack would have broken every bone in her body, but she wasn’t out of the danger yet. She suppressed her instinct to curl up and did her best to dodge.

“AHHH!” Sword Empress Snowsword screamed. She clutched what remained of her left arm. Of course, someone at her level wouldn’t scream in pain just from having her arm cut off. The reason for her scream was because of the part where the Metal Source Talons touched.

No blood leaked from her stump. Instead, tiny silver flakes fell off and metal spikes grew out. Sword Empress Snowsword could feel her left arm transforming from flesh into metal. She wanted to rip her arm out and prevent the spread, but Demon Emperor Redraco wouldn’t allow her the chance.

Demon Emperor Redraco’s two whiskers transformed into whips. Their tips pierced toward Sword Empress Snowsword, gleaming viciously.

Sword Empress Snowsword felt a hint of despair. Even if she dodged this attack, Demon Emperor Blacktiger’s claws awaited her. If she couldn’t dodge it, she would suffer lethal damage, and the end result would not change. A savage light entered her eyes. Since she was already doomed, then she must drag one of them down with her.

The sword empress’s aura erupted. Her ink black hair turned white, starting from the roots. It was a light and airy white that made each strand appear as if it was woven from fresh snow. Even her eyelashes turned white. Her skin turned crystalline and her eyes exuded infinite frost.

Her bare hands reached out and grabbed one of the whiskers. The other whisker struck true, but the sound of the impact resembled that of screeching metal. Aside from a light gash, Demon Emperor Redraco’s whisker did not injure her. More than that, the other whisker started to freeze over from where Sword Empress Snowsword grabbed.

Even on the other end, Demon Emperor Redraco could feel the chill creeping up his jaw. He grunted and pulled back, but Sword Empress Snowsword used that momentum to charge at him. Although he brought his realm artifact with him, Demon Emperor Redraco’s instincts told him that it would be terrible if he allowed her to come close.

Naturally, the other members of the Four Divine Beast also sensed this. Xuanwu rushed toward Sword Empress Snowsword. Demon Emperor Redraco may be afraid, but he had the strongest body out of all of them. Only a realm beast would have a stronger body, and only when he had not become a divinity.

Demon Empress Bluefeather unleashed her flames, but when they neared the sword empress, they froze directly. Not just her flames, but a frosty aura erupted from the white-haired immortal that caused time itself to slow down. Even Xuanwu resembled his namesake, as his speed slowed to a crawl.

Sword Empress Snowsword’s Law of Ice reached the level of a peak immortal sovereign. She could use her Law of Ice to replicate certain other laws, like the Law of Time. Unfortunately, it was only the last blazes of brilliance before going out.

Demon Emperor Blacktiger used all his might in an attempt to slash the sword empress with his Metal Source Talons, but it felt as if he was moving through a quagmire. Suddenly, alarm bells exploded in his mind. He used all his efforts to dodge. Unfortunately, Sword Empress Snowsword’s freezing caused him his movements to lag.

A humanoid figure formed out of black mist filled with countless motes of light appeared above Demon Emperor Blacktiger out of thin air. The humanoid figure raised a fist and smashed it into the demon tiger’s waist.

“AHHHH!” Demon Emperor Blacktiger released a pain cry, just like Sword Empress Snowsword had done before.

A black sphere erupted from the point of contact, one that expanded and swallowed Demon Emperor Blacktiger whole.

“You’re alive?!” Demon Emperor Redraco shouted in shock as the misty humanoid flew away.

The black mist around the figure dissipated slightly, revealing half a face and some purple robes. Tianyi didn’t say anything and raised his arm. Several Stellar Silences appeared, and he launched it at Demon Empress Bluefeather.

After his Constellation Cessation engulfed him, the effects of the Five Element Annihilation reached its lowest point, allowing him to teleport to the safety of his inner universe. Although it still caused great damage to him, at least his strongest conduit wasn’t completely annihilated .

Then, Tianyi waited patiently for a chance to strike back and get revenge. He knew that Demon Empress Bluefeather had strong recovery and survival abilities, so he didn’t target her. Demon Emperor Redraco had an armor realm artifact, so his chances of killing him were smaller than the demon empress. As for Xuanwu, Tianyi didn’t think an old monster like that didn’t have any trump cards. That only left Demon Emperor Blacktiger.

Although the demon tiger possessed a realm artifact, it was for offense, making him the easiest target.

What surprised him the most was Sword Empress Snowsword’s state. As someone who had fused the Law of Life and the Law of Death, he could feel the sword empress’s vitality disappearing at a rapid rate. Most likely, it was a forbidden technique that would increase her state at the cost of her life.

Not only would he kill one of the Four Divine Beasts, but an immortal emperor of the Numinous Sword Sect would also fall today.

What a good day!
