I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

The Supreme Immortal Palace, one of the most colossal structures in the Sixth Realm, stands atop the sea of ​​clouds, shrouded in celestial mist and bathed in radiant light.

As usual, the disciples of the Immortal Palace were either practicing swordsmanship in the mountains or meditating in the palace, creating a peaceful scene.

At the top of the cliff, a fairy of unparalleled beauty sat quietly on a blue stone.

She wore a plain white dress, the hem of which fluttered lightly in the wind, like a celestial maiden descending to earth.

It was none other than the renowned fairy Wanwan.

Her eyes were slightly closed, and spiritual energy flowed around her, as if she had merged with heaven and earth.

Below the cliffs, the sea of ​​clouds surges and is illuminated by the glow of the sunset, creating a scene resembling a fairyland.

Suddenly, a dazzling divine light streaked across the sky at an incredible speed.

Within the divine light, a figure could be vaguely seen; it was none other than their Immortal Lord.

But at this moment, the Immortal Lord appeared extremely disheveled.

His robes were tattered, his divine light was dim, and a trace of blood still clung to the corner of his mouth.

His breathing was disordered, as if he had just experienced an earth-shattering battle.

The Immortal Lord's figure arrived in an instant, directly piercing through the mountain-protecting array and landing on the main peak of the Immortal Palace.

Wanwan suddenly opened her eyes, a look of shock flashing in them.

She had never seen the Immortal Lord look like this before; it was a look of near panic as if he were fleeing for his life.

Before the disciples could react, the Immortal Lord's voice resounded throughout the entire Immortal Palace.

"Activate the mountain-protecting formation! Everyone, return to your positions immediately!"

Before the words were even finished, countless dazzling pillars of light suddenly rose up around the Immortal Palace, shooting straight into the sky.

The beams of light intertwined, forming a massive barrier that enveloped the entire celestial palace.

Such a powerful protective array is only activated in times of life and death!

Wanwan felt a chill run down her spine, vaguely sensing an unprecedented crisis approaching.

She quickly stood up, transformed into a streak of light, and flew towards the main peak.

At the same time, disciples throughout the Immortal Palace awoke with alarm, and countless figures converged from all directions, their expressions solemn.

"What happened? Why is the Immortal Lord in such a panic?"

"The mountain-protecting formation has been activated! Could it be that a powerful enemy is attacking?"

"Even the Immortal Lord was injured, just what kind of being is this?"

The disciples began to discuss amongst themselves, and a sense of unease quickly spread.

Wanwan landed on the main peak and looked up at the sky.

In the distance, a sea of ​​clouds surged, and a terrifying aura was rapidly approaching.

The aura was so strong that it seemed to make even the heavens and earth tremble!

Suddenly, a deafening roar resounded.

Outside the mountain-protecting formation, a figure broke through the air and slowly appeared.

"It's him?!"

He was a young man with a handsome face, sharp eyebrows and eyes, yet he exuded a chilling aura of menace.

His eyes were as deep as an abyss, seemingly containing endless indifference and destruction.

"Shen Ming?" Wanwan's pupils shrank, and she exclaimed in shock.

She had considered the possibility of all the major religions and holy sites of the Sixth Realm uniting to attack the Immortal Palace.

There was also the possibility that the Celestial Palace had failed to capture a terrifying celestial spirit, leading to retaliation.

They even considered the possibility that a powerful enemy from the upper realm had descended.

Having experienced the last Holy Cliff Heavenly Gathering, the Upper Realm is no longer so unfamiliar to us.

But no one would have guessed it was Shen Ming.

It could make the Immortal Lord feel as if facing a formidable enemy, and gather all the power of the Immortal Palace.

Some disciples of the Immortal Palace even wore strange smiles, wondering if something had gone wrong.

The assassination plan was carried out in secret, so none of the Immortal Palace disciples knew that Shen Ming had returned.

I thought he was on the moon.

"Shen Ming! Show mercy when you can, why be so ruthless!"

What the disciples of the Immortal Palace found most unbelievable was that the Immortal Lord's voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

Anyone could tell that it was all bark and no bite, lacking any real substance.

But Shen Ming is clearly a single person.

“In that case, other giants have all said the same thing. You guys are all the same. When the same situation happens to you, you start crying and complaining,” Shen Ming said.

What ancient giant, what regional overlord, what invincible mindset, what the majesty of a superior?

In the face of death, all are equal.

This is based on experience gained from killing more than a dozen ancient giants.

To be honest, Shen Ming was a little annoyed.

Without a natal sword, the only option is to launch such a massive pursuit.

"Original Heaven Divine Eye, activate!"

Then, Shen Ming let out a low shout, his eyes sparkling like stars.

Everything within sight is visible.

The light from the Source Heaven Divine Eye swept across the Supreme Immortal Palace, penetrating layers of restrictions and reaching deep into the palace.

"It's just as I thought."

Shen Ming lowered his eyes and said coldly, "From today onwards, the Immortal Palace will cease to exist."

Upon hearing this, the Immortal Lord felt a deep sense of despair and helplessness.

The disciples of the Immortal Palace were both shocked and furious that this boy, who was even younger than them, dared to utter such arrogant words.

The Celestial Palace and the Holy Land of the Great Sect are different; they gather all the immortals and spirits in the lower realm and claim to be naturally close to them.

However, Shen Ming had dealt with them before and knew that wasn't the case.

Today, I have witnessed it with my own eyes.

Deep within the temple, celestial beings, born of heaven and earth, are chained to a sacred mountain by countless divine chains.

The next moment, he opened his left hand, and the Great Luo Palace in his palm slowly rotated.

Brilliant beams of light shot straight into the sky.

A clear and melodious phoenix cry could be faintly heard from within the pillar of light.

"Haven't you always wanted the Immortal Phoenix? Here you go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a giant phoenix emerged from the void.

Its entire body was engulfed in blazing flames, its wings were like gold, its eyes were like stars, and it exuded endless majesty and holiness.

The Immortal Phoenix's injuries have been fully healed.

In the lower realms, they are similarly suppressed, only able to exert the power of the human realm.

However, the Celestial Phoenix grew to the Divine Realm on the moon, becoming even stronger than Shen Ming.

The phoenix spread its wings, and flames swept across the heavens and earth, even causing the mountain-protecting formation to tremble slightly under its power.

"One minute," Shen Ming said.

The Immortal Phoenix was also obedient, not in a hurry to make a move, and hovered above his head.

The disciples of the Immortal Palace understood that this minute was given to them.

One minute later, those who choose to stay will be subjected to a merciless attack.

Most of the disciples of the Immortal Palace remained unmoved.

This is their immortal palace. In their conventional thinking, the location of a power's Daoist temple requires more than ten times the combat power to conquer.

Shen Ming is just shouting here all by himself; how can they believe him?

Of course, some alert disciples still remembered how the Immortal Lord had fled in such a sorry state.

Fairy Wanwan reviewed Shen Ming's various performances and guessed that he had already reached the cultivation level of an ancient giant.

"The fact that he was able to storm the Immortal Palace shows that the Immortal Lord can't do anything to him outside. On the contrary, if I stay here, the Immortal Lord might not be able to take care of me."

After weighing the pros and cons, Fairy Wanwan made a decisive move and left the Immortal Palace immediately.

Instantly, a chorus of curses erupted from the Immortal Palace.

Before this, there were rumors in the Immortal Palace that Wanwan was having an affair with the Holy Emperor, and now it seems to be true.

"time is limited."

Shen Ming spoke again, bringing them back to their senses.

With the final ten seconds countdown underway, the disciples of the Immortal Palace felt inexplicably tense, placing all their hopes on the Immortal Lord.

Soon, the ten-second countdown ended.

The immortal phoenix let out a long cry and flapped its wings as it rushed toward the immortal palace.
