The number of Immortal Emperors within the Huang Realm did not exceed ten. They were the pinnacle of power among the forces of the Huang Realm. Should any force or sect develop an Immortal Emperor, they would automatically become a peak first-rate power.

But since the creation of the Huang Realm over three million years ago, there was less than ten. But now, within the span of a day, two new Immortal Emperors appeared, and it was two Soul Emperors at that. The Immortal Monarchs observing this all felt speechless at this sight.

Some of them were even over a million or two millions year old yet had never crossed the final step to become an Immortal Monarch. They felt their blood run cold as they recalled how easily Emperor Soulfish dispatched Monarch Yonderheart.

All of them had witnessed how the expert in the Dao of Space had exited out of his portal with a bewildered expression. Soon after, his soul was extracted easily. Not even his body was spared.

The Cloud Goddess's Aspect was unable to do anything either. She had expended the foundation of the Aspect's lifeforce and was slowly disappearing into the world. She faded away like morning fog.

All of the Immortal Monarchs began to retreat. This was no longer a battle they could intervene in. Aside from the three who left the realm, only the incomplete Emperor Mirrorevil and Sword Empress Xi could do anything in this battle between Emperors.

Emperor Soulfish frowned. His hand reached towards one of the petals of the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus.

A dot of light sprang into existence atop the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus. It was a caterpillar with a texture that resembled a floorboard, but its body was shiny as if it was made from crystal. Its translucent flesh revealed the innard organs that glowed with silvery-white light like the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus.

There were little bitemarks and even a few holes on the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus; the culprit was clear.

An invisible pressure descended onto the area and caused all the Immortal Monarchs to feel suffocated. It wasn't a physical feeling but rather one that their souls felt. If any of the True Immortals were here, they would have directly had their souls injured by the pressure alone. Nothing needed to be said for mortals.

"Spring Autumn Butterfly Larva..." The killing intent in Emperor Soulfish's voice reached the peak, and his hand continued forward to crush the insect that dared to nibble and take away the properties of the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus.

Under the pressure, the caterpillar seemed to wilt a bit as its body stiffened. It lost its grip and fell off the petal and started to plummet to the ground, but how could Immortal Soulfish allow the little thief to escape?

Unfortunately for him, it was at this moment that the Northern Region changed. It was still the Northern Region, yet not the Northern Region.

The Immortal Monarchs all felt the world changed, but only the surface level of change.

Emperor Soulfish felt his body become constricted as he was a mortal plunged into the abyss of the sea. Not just that, but his ability to absorb the spiritual qi of the realm and convert them into immortal qi disappear. He calmly turned to face the source of the change.

Standing in the air was Xi Mengfei. Her purple robes fluttered in the air, her long black hair danced with the wind, her very presence was like the god of the realm.

Emperor Soulfish gently moved the hand he was holding the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus. But the instant he moved, a black crystalline sword appeared in Mengfei's hand and stabbed towards him.

"We can talk. I have the million-year accumulations of the Begonia Tower. If you let me leave, I can give you anything you want." He opened his mouth to speak, but he felt his body become even more constricted. "We are both Immortal Emperors here. Nothing good will come out if we try to kill each other-"

"Shut up." Mengfei only said those to words. The black sword in her hand was black to the point that it appeared as if it was a hole in reality, but at the same time, it appeared perfectly translucent. "I told you, if you appeared before me, I will kill you."

Emperor Soulfish didn't say anymore. At this juncture, saying anything would be a waste of breath. However, he couldn't understand why a person like Sword Empress Xi would be so willing to fight for a parasite.

Yes, he viewed these otherworlders as parasites. They replaced the original children born and superimposed their existence upon a world that was not theirs, stealing the parents' love.

The longer the fight went, the more Emperor Soulfish found himself weakening. As a Soul Emperor, he originally should have many esoteric means to fight Sword Empress Xi, but his soul power had difficulty leaving his body. At the same time, he was protecting the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus. All this was not helped by the fact that he was a newly ascended Immortal Emperor. It was like Mengfei didn't care for the immeasurable treasure in his hand as long as she could kill him, further constraining him. He wanted to place the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus into the Begonia Pagoda and fight with his full strength, but Mengfei didn't have him much leeway. His spatial ring couldn't contain such a treasure and would actually harm it instead.

In addition, Mengfei had completely locked down and controlled the Northern Region.

There were Immortals who were able to discover some minor realms with cores; refine them and become Realm Lords. Although being a Realm Lord didn't necessarily increase their powers, but within the realm, they were like a god. It was also this unique power that allowed Realm Lords to be nearly unkillable within their realm.

Mengfei displayed her abilities and surpassed the state of Formation as the World. She had commandeered the Northern Region and temporarily placed it under her control and commanded it like a Realm Lord would.

Strange, according to the information collected, Sword Empress Xi should be more powerful than this. Although I am being suppressed by her formation, her sword arts should be more powerful than this.

As the fight went on, although Mengfei couldn't land a decisive blow on Emperor Soulfish, neither was he capable of leaving. As time dragged on, it would be more detrimental to him once the Eternal Night Emperor, Empress Voidink, and Cloud Goddess returned.

Every time the blade landed on his body, not only did his body receive an injury but his soul as well.

I've never heard of Sword Empress being able to use soul attack. Had it been anyone else, the pressure on them would be even more immense. Compared to physical injuries, soul injuries are worse by tenfold.

It was an unexpected piece of information. If word got out, then her place as the number one Immortal of the Huang Realm would be even more stable. However, Emperor Soulfish was clear that he couldn't delay his escape any longer.

Although he was an Immortal Emperor, he had just broken through not long ago.

Speaking of which, he should really thank Meng Jiang. Although she was the reason, he could not capture Tianyi, witnessing her technique that a mortal cultivator should not have possessed allowed him to gain a spark of inspiration. That spark allowed him to break through the bottleneck that had been plaguing him for years. Had he not broken through, the chances of him being able to snatch the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus decreased dramatically.

Even so, among Immortal Emperors, although he could not be called the weakest due to being a soul cultivator, he was still among the weaker ones. Against Mengfei, he had no confidence in fleeing without injury.

Sword Empress Xi's public title as the number one Immortal isn't for show. I've lived a hundred times longer, yet I've only now reached the Extremity Immortal Realm.

Emperor Mirrorevil, who had retreated from the battle between Mengfei and Emperor Soulfish, began to take action. His body began to turn into glass completely. His skin, muscle, veins, blood, organs, and bones all shone with reflected light. But before he could take action, he sensed three great presences appear above him.

Those three presences were naturally Empress Voidink, Eternal Night Emperor, and the Cloud Goddess.

The Cloud Goddess turned to look at Emperor Mirrorevil. Her eyes were emotionless, and not a hint of wrath existed in her body, but her killing intent was real. As the only Immortal Emperor level expert of the Anti-Heaven Alliance, how could she let the culprit who killed an Immortal Monarch of the alliance leave alive?

"Wait a moment Cloud Goddess." It was Eternal Night Emperor who chose to intervene at this moment.

"Eternal Night Emperor, I hope you aren't stopping me from killing Monarch Yonderheart's murderer because you admire his talent and potential." The Cloud Goddess's voice was clear and casual.

"Certainly not. I'm just informing Cloud Goddess that even if you manage to kill Emperor Mirrorevil, it would only slow him down." Eternal Night Emperor said. Both Zhang Cuiying and Cloud Goddess became confused at his words.

Eternal Night Monarch pointed at Emperor Soulfish, who was still entangled with Mengfei. "Emperor Mirrorevil doesn't exist. To be precise, it's just an alias for that guy's clone."

Eternal Night Monarch didn't bother to hide his voice, so all the Immoral Monarchs in the vicinity heard his words and became stunned. They could understand each word individually, but when pieced together, why they couldn't comprehend it?

Zhang Cuiying frowned when she heard it. "So the reason the Emperor Mirrorevil was active as a mortal and Emperor Soulfish became active when he ascended the Immortal Realm was because they were one?"

"I don't know. Usually, the aura of the soul doesn't change between the true body and the clone. But it seems that the young lad has some unique ability. Or perhaps it is a secret technique of Begonia Tower." Eternal Night Emperor said.

Zhang Cuiying looked over towards the unconcerned Cloud Goddess. The Cloud Goddess spoke. "Emperor Mirrorevil is selfish and demonic. Slaughtering countless mortals to further his path, the number of innocents who were subjected to calamity to him are innumerable. Friend from the Earth Continent and Empress Voidink, I ask you to aid me in exterminating this scourge."

"Naturally, as members of the orthodox path, preventing this Devil from causing any further damage to the world is our duty." Zhang Cuiying said.

"Although I am from the Earth Continent, matters concerning Immortal Emperors affect the whole realm. How can I shrink my duty?" Eternal Night Emperor said.

The three of them, who were said to be on opposing sides, shared a tactic smile before rushing towards Emperor Soulfish.

The Immortal Monarchs witnessed one of the rare occurrences of four Immortal Emperor level experts teaming up. All four of them were experts among the Immortal Emperor level experts, including Mengfei, the youngest of the four.

As the battle continued, Emperor Soulfish was blasted back from the combined assault. His robe was in near tatters, and his right arm was beyond mangled. In spite of all this, the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus clutched to his chest was undamaged. Even the Immortal Artifact Soul Pagoda behind him had had cracks all over it.

Beside him, his clone Mirrorevil was barely clinging onto a single breath. The clone's glass-like body had numerous fractures all over it.

"If you give up the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus, you may have a chance to flee." Zhang Cuiying said. Among the four of them, she was one most worried about the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus.

"Senior Voidink, you should be very clear. As long as a soul's remnant enters the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus, they will be able to reincarnate with the perfect body. You of all people should understand that this Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus is more important to me than my life!" Emperor Soulfish said, his eyes tranquil despite the unpleasant circumstance.

"You're right." Zhang Cuiying said. She pulled out a scroll longer than her arm and thicker than a tree trunk. She unfurled it, and inside there were numerous copies of a single figure. It depicted a man in shining silver armor and spear.

With a flick, the scroll unfurled until a clear line could be seen from the sky even from the ground. From the scroll, hundreds of soldiers began to pop out from it. Each of these silver soldiers had the aura of an Immortal. Finally, the ten-thousandth and last armored warrior appeared. It had a trident instead of a spear and a large red plume atop his helmet. Unlike the aura of True Immortals, the other soldiers exuded, he exuded the aura of an Immortal Monarch.

Voidink Scroll - Heavenly Immortal Soldiers

The spectating Immortal Monarchs once again found their mouths hanging open in shock.

Nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine True Immortal Soldiers and one Immortal Monarch General

No, ignoring that Empress Voidink was able to summon an Immortal Monarch from her scroll, just the sheer number of True Immortals was staggering. And judging by the size of the scroll, she wouldn't happen to have even more, right?

They couldn't help but question. Ten thousand Immortals was already a staggering amount, perhaps larger than the total number of Immortals in the Huang Realm.

But Eternal Night Emperor, Cloud Goddess, Xi Mengfei, and Emperor Soulfish didn't show any surprise. To experts of their level, being surrounded by ten thousand True Immortals was nothing fatal. They may not win against the sheer numbers, but leaving alive was easy. In addition, the scroll soldiers were imitations and incapable of unleashing the power of true Immortals.

The real problem was the formation they began to set up. If combined with Xi Mengfei's dominance of the Northern Region, then the chances of Emperor Soulfish escaping would practically be zero.

The next few actions, none of the Immortal Monarchs were able to comprehend clearly. Just as it seemed that Emperor Soulfish lost his mind and started an assault with his clone, a light brighter than anything they've witnessed before blinded them.

When they regained their sight, the strange feeling disappeared. Immortal Soulfish and his clone were nowhere to be seen. Neither were the other Immortal Emperors.
