What Immortal King Take My Punch

【“Waaah—”】

【A violent wind howled through the surroundings, leaving behind a piercing wail.】

【The gale pinned everyone in place, leaving them unable to move.】

【These winds came from the enormous face atop the clouds in the sky.】

【“This is the Hurricane Domain. The one up there is the Chief Arbiter of the Interstellar Enforcement Bureau—a member of the Sacred Dragon Clan, Feng Ling, the Hurricane Immortal King!”】

【The wind whipping around you stung your face like blades scraping across your skin.】

【You were a cultivator in the Heaven-Ascending realm, and thanks to the enhancements from your various traits, your physical strength far surpassed that of others at the same level.】

【Even so, these seemingly ordinary gusts were actually capable of injuring you.】

【It was easy to imagine just how terrifying the power of the Immortal King standing above the clouds—his true form nowhere to be seen—truly was.】

【He Xiangdong made a decisive choice.】

【“Mr. Chen, take Zhong Yanqing and go! I believe that with your abilities, you can break through!”】

【You nodded heavily, grabbed A-Dou, and unleashed your full power.】

【Roaring Samadhi True Flames coiled around you and A-Dou like a divine dragon protecting you.】

【The flames confronted the murderous gale around you, forming a windless eye at the center of the storm.】

【The Thunder-Chasing Lightning Boots beneath your feet erupted with countless bolts of lightning. They struck the ground with tremendous force, launching you into the air.】

【“Quantum Ghoststep! Full power!!”】

【Divine power surged from your Origin Core like a breached dam, and you unleashed Quantum Ghoststep with an intensity you had never reached before.】

【You pushed both speed and misdirection to their absolute limits.】

【Looking around, there were you everywhere.】

【Yet not one of them was the real you!】

【“Child’s play!”】

【The enormous face in the clouds glared viciously, and dark tornadoes rose from the ground in every direction.】

【These tornadoes effortlessly shredded mountains and forests, turning everything into hazy gray ashes.】

【Together, they formed a killing formation that sealed off your path and shattered every illusion created by your divine technique.】

【One of the dark tornadoes struck your true body head-on, sending you and A-Dou tumbling to the ground.】

【Before you could catch your breath, two enormous hands made of wind reached out—one seized you, while the other grabbed A-Dou.】

【“Uncle Chen!”】

【The hand holding A-Dou began pulling him toward the sky.】

【A-Dou tried to escape using the Purple-Gold Cloudwalking Boots beneath his feet, only to realize that the enemy had somehow already removed them and thrown them onto the ground.】

【Bound by the giant hand of wind, you found yourself unable to move for the moment. But you sensed something stirring inside the Pot-Heaven Space.】

【The Hao Sun Ring!】

【You immediately circulated your divine power and opened the Pot-Heaven Space.】

【“Whoosh!!”】

【The Hao Sun Ring shot out and flew into A-Dou’s hand.】

【“You alien bastards! Don’t push us too far!!”】

【A-Dou roared and hurled the Hao Sun Ring with all his strength.】

【The mighty power of the Heavenly Emperor erupted forth. Its incomparable light and heat crushed the gale!】

【Yet the Hurricane Immortal King merely answered with a cold laugh.】

【“The Red Heaven Emperor may have been powerful, but he has long since become a pile of dead ashes. How can a dead man’s possession contend with the living? Stand down!!”】

【The enormous face vanished from the sky.】

【The white clouds turned black and transformed into a vortex.】

【“Rumble…”】

【It was actually the sound of the wind moving, like a million iron cavalrymen charging across the land.】

【The light and heat radiating from the Hao Sun Ring quickly fell into a disadvantage, suppressed by the even more powerful force of the wind.】

【“A-Dou!!”】

【The enormous hand formed from wind was dragging A-Dou toward the heavens.】

【The Sacred Dragon Society’s objective remained the capture of the Destined One alive.】

【Seeing that A-Dou was about to be taken alive, you struggled with every ounce of strength you had, but the pressure of the surrounding wind was simply too difficult to resist.】

【This was not merely the suppression of realm, the power of divine abilities, or the crushing force of immortal power.】

【This was a domain!】

【You had already been enveloped by the power of the Hurricane Immortal King’s domain.】

【Within an Immortal King’s domain, one was naturally weakened by a significant degree, unless one possessed a domain capable of standing against it.】

【Moreover, if the power you used was countered by the opponent’s domain, it would be rendered completely useless.】

【There were no numbers involved. It was pure mechanics.】

【Yet under these very circumstances, you saw two figures charge into the sky.】

【“Strategist He, Brother Lin!”】

【The two of them had actually managed to take flight within the Immortal King’s domain!】

【Ji Wuqing was utterly stunned.】

【Ji Wuqing was hailed as the greatest human genius the Vermilion Purple Star had seen in a thousand years. Yet from the moment the Immortal King appeared, she had been unable to move at all, powerless to do anything.】

【But He Xiangdong and Lin the Strongman, whose displayed strength was even lower than Ji Wuqing’s, had managed to charge into the heavens at this very moment!】

【You were deeply shaken.】

【“What terrifying willpower…”】

【This was not a matter of cultivation.】

【Their willpower was forcing their bodies to surpass their limits!】

【The two of them fought their way through the gale and reached the air above. Each of them grabbed one of A-Dou’s legs.】

【The wind around A-Dou intensified explosively, becoming countless razor-sharp blades. In the blink of an eye, the gale shredded He Xiangdong and the other man until they were covered in wounds and drenched in blood.】

【No matter how badly they were injured, neither of them let go.】

【A-Dou slowly shook his head.】

【“Stop this, Strategist He! Uncle Lin! Let go, let go!!”】

【He Xiangdong’s face had already been mutilated by the wind blades, but he gave a tragic smile.】

【“Let my broken body… illuminate the world… Pass the torch from generation to generation… Let it never go out… Protecting you is our responsibility!”】

【Lin the Strongman’s hands revealed stark white bones, yet he still gripped A-Dou tightly. Then he threw back his head and laughed at the sky.】

【“Let our bodies become fuel for the torch; face death as though returning home!! Hurricane Immortal King! Sacred Dragon Society! All you alien races! One day, someone will shatter you and drag you down from your altar!”】

【On the ground, Ji Wuqing was already crying. She hated herself for being powerless to help.】

【“Move! Move! Damn this body! Move!!”】

【“Boom!!!”】

【The explosion beside her startled Ji Wuqing.】

【She hadn’t moved—but you had!】

【Ji Wuqing noticed that your face had changed. Your red hair was gone, and your appearance had become slightly less striking, though you were still handsome.】

【You once again removed all disguises and activated the trait “Live Uprightly”!】

【The effects of all your traits increased by 200%, allowing you to break through the Immortal King’s suppression. You stomped down with one foot and shot into the sky like a missile.】

【“What the hell is an Immortal King?! Take my punch!!!”】

【An infinitely dazzling radiance erupted from your body, and countless strands of immortal aura furiously converged around you.】

【“Lightspeed Fist!!!”】

【Rising from below, you concentrated all the gathered energy into a single point and blasted your fist into the heavens.】

【The power of this strike was unprecedented!】

【A beam of light pierced through heaven and earth, sweeping away the gale and dark clouds and briefly revealing a clear sky above.】

【“Rumble!!!”】

【The Lightspeed Fist struck its target beyond the atmosphere.】

【To those watching from afar, it looked as though a small sun had appeared in the sky.】

【Concentric shock waves spread outward from that small sun at an astonishing speed, sweeping in every direction.】

Wherever it passed, even though it was far above the ground, the lingering force of its power still swept up buildings, trees, turf, soil, and everything else below, whipping up countless storms.
