Chapter 966: A Boundless Immortal Slaughters All

Liu Miaoyin's strength shocked the Void Saint.

"How have you grown so much stronger so quickly?" the Void Saint roared in disbelief.

Although he was still slightly stronger, Liu Miaoyin's formidable combat experience had almost completely closed the gap between them, making it appear as if they were evenly matched.

He shuddered. There was bitter enmity between him and Liu Miaoyin now. His opponent had grown sharply in strength within a matter of days. If he allowed her to grow further, their positions might be reversed.

"I have to finish Liu Miaoyin today. She has to die," the Void Saint hissed to himself.

He allowed Liu Miaoyin to strike him as he punched at the entrance to the wild wastes hidden realm. With a resounding boom, Liu Miaoyin's seal shattered.

"You fools, what are you waiting for? Go and kill Xiao Nanfeng!" the Void Saint commanded.

"You're asking to die!" Liu Miaoyin thundered. She shot forward in an attempt to prevent others from entering the hidden realm, but the Void Saint himself clung to her stubbornly and refused to let her leave. "You won't be able to leave until you finish me off. I'm your opponent now!"

He wanted to take advantage of Xiao Nanfeng's death to distract Liu Miaoyin and create an opening for himself.

In the distance, Chu Tianban and his group tensed. One of them asked, "Has the saint noticed us?"

Chu Tianban took a deep breath as he glanced at the portal into the wild wastes hidden realm. "We're going in!"

"What? Really?" one cultivator asked in worry.

"It's a rare opportunity. Why not cooperate with the saint this once?"

"But what about the heavenly restrictions within the hidden realm?"

"Something must have happened in there. The Void Saint wouldn't have told us to head in otherwise. Let's go, now!" Chu Tianban declared.

The group nodded. They shot into the sky following Chu Tianban.

Meanwhile, within the wild wastes hidden realm, a sudden chime resonated from Xiao Nanfeng's body. Golden ripples expanded in all directions. A vast aura erupted from his body, creating a storm that swept through the area.

"Xiao Nanfeng's advancing into a Boundless Immortal!" the cultivators rushing in from the outside cried out.

Xiao Nanfeng slowly opened his eyes with a flicker of irritation. He had already absorbed and digested all the heavenly energy half a day earlier. His golden sapling had grown several times larger, and he had been ready to break through then and there. At that moment, however, he had suddenly entered a profound state of enlightenment.

The battle that was taking place outside the wild wastes hidden realm had awoken him from his enlightenment, and he was forced to focus on breaking through instead.

"The first stage of the Boundless Immortal realm..." Xiao Nanfeng felt the power coursing through his body as he slowly stood up.

Meanwhile, Chu Tianban and his group had all made it into the hidden realm. They nervously scanned their surroundings and exhaled in relief as they realized that the oppressive heavenly restrictions had been lifted. They glared at Xiao Nanfeng with killing intent.

"Xiao Nanfeng, this time, I'll personally send you to your death. You won't escape!" Chu Tianban sneered.

"Do you have more of those suncrows?" Xiao Nanfeng asked.

Chu Tianban felt a surge of rage.

"How dare you bring up those suncrows? You bastard! After I kill you, I'll burn your soul in solarfire for eternity! I'll make you wish you were dead!" Chu Tianban roared, then turned to his subordinates. "Kill him!"

His subordinates charged toward Xiao Nanfeng.

"No suncrows, then? Well, I've got some for you." Xiao Nanfeng smiled.

With a wave of his hand, ten golden crows suddenly emerged from his body with an earth-shaking screech.

"Xiao Nanfeng, I am under the protection of Crown Prince Banruo! If you kill me, the Crown Prince will hunt you down!"

"You're precisely who I'm intending to kill," Xiao Nanfeng replied icily as he swung his blade once more.

"No!" Chu Tianban's scream was cut short.

With a flash of blue light, Chu Tianban was split in two. He died on the spot as his blood rained down from the sky.

Chu Tianban's remaining subordinates fell into despair. Severely wounded, they were no match for the ten golden crows and were quickly annihilated.

"You trash!" The Void Saint's enraged voice could be heard from the outside.

Meanwhile, Liu Miaoyin, still locked in battle against the saint, let out a sigh of relief.

Clearly, both she and the Void Saint had been paying attention to the fight within the hidden realm. Now that the dust had settled and the Void Saint's forces had been obliterated, he was seething. Meanwhile, Liu Miaoyin no longer had to worry about Xiao Nanfeng. She refocused on her fight.

Xiao Nanfeng recalled his ten golden crows and turned to Blue Lantern, who had just woken up.

Blue Lantern opened his eyes. He was shocked to see the bodies of Chu Tianban and his subordinates strewn about, but refrained from asking questions immediately.

"Blue Latnern, are you alright? Were you hurt by the aftermath of the attack?"

"Thanks to Your Majesty, I'm alright. I was fortunate to have received the inheritance of my sect's founder." Blue Lantern bowed in gratitude.

"That's wonderful news," Xiao Nanfeng replied with a smile.

The two flew to the entrance of the hidden realm, which had been damaged by the Void Saint and could no longer close properly.

Together, they looked toward the fighting occurring in the distance.

"Senior Liu has grown far stronger than before," Blue Lantern remarked in surprise.

"Unfortunately, she hasn't had enough time to grow further. She's still slightly weaker than the Void Saint. At this rate, things will go poorly for her. The Void Saint knows this, which is why he's refusing to back down. We need to lure them to Dajing's capital so Miaoyin can draw on her imperial might." Xiao Nanfeng frowned.

"To Dajing's capital? I might have an idea," Blue Lantern said.

"What's your plan?"

"The wild wastes hidden realm is the pinnacle of my sect founder's craft. I've inherited his legacy, and can relocate the entrance of the hidden realm anywhere in the world."

"Oh?" Xiao Nanfeng's expression lit up.

"All I need to do is set up a marker in advance."

"Do so immediately. I'll bring the formation marker to Dajing's capital and lure the saint into our trap," Xiao Nanfeng said.

"Understood!" Blue Lantern replied.

After discussing the details, Blue Lantern handed Xiao Nanfeng a transparent compass.

Xiao Nanfeng took the compass and soared into the sky, heading straight for Dajing's capital. With a whoosh, he disappeared over the horizon.

"Haha, Liu Miaoyin, did you see that? Xiao Nanfeng abandoned you and ran away. How pitiful! Why don't you become my woman instead?" The Void Saint cackled.

"Foolish scum!" Liu Miaoyin snorted coldly, launching another fierce attack.

She guessed that Xiao Nanfeng had something in mind.
