Chapter 2328 Deadly Siege at the Entrance

Just as Big Yellow was about to react, Lin Xun blinked at the dog to signal it to stop.

In order to follow the other party in secret, they had been using a stealth technique. This coupled with Big Yellow's power meant ordinary Emperor experts wouldn't be able to detect their presence at all.

Sure enough, the fast approaching group of rainbows, after getting on the Ancient Star Path, hurriedly flew off toward the distance.

At the same time, Martial Emperor Juexing, Battle Emperor Huntong, and Sword Emperor Hongni stopped moving and turned their heads in unison.

“Hello, Fellow Daoists from Panwu Dao Court.” Martial Emperor Juexing recognized the other party at a glance. His expression immediately relaxed into a smile.

The two groups then started exchanging pleasantries.

Before long, these Emperors from two great ancient courts started traveling together.

Watching this from the dark, Lin Xun and Big Yellow glanced at each other in relief and resumed tailing them.

The Ancient Star Path was long and winding, but teleportation was forbidden. Everyone had traveled for around six hours when they finally saw a massive nebula vortex above the void. It looked like the universe had opened its mouth wide.

Martial Emperor Juexing's party and the Emperors of Panwu Dao Court rushed into it one after another.

“Go,” urged Big Yellow who leapt into the vortex with Lin Xun.

At the end of this nebula vortex was the secret realm of the Flying Immortal River. Once they were in there, they only needed to follow along this river to enter the Kunlun Dominion.

Buzz!

The stars swirled in a circle after they got inside the nebula vortex. The next second, Lin Xun and Big Yellow found themselves in a vast world filled with chaos qi and steaming hazy light.

A thunderous, constant crashing noise of water resounded from far away. Looking in that direction, it was a hanging heavenly river on the horizon!

The neverending stream seemed to be coming from the sky, painting a spectacular sight.

When Big Yellow and Lin Xun arrived at the area, however, they were dumbfounded.

𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Every side had long been blocked off by people who appeared to be waiting to catch someone.

Those people were none other than the parties of Martial Emperor Juexing and Panwu Dao Court earlier!

We’ve been discovered!

Lin Xun and Big Yellow instantly realized their situation, and it surprised them for a moment before they regained their composure. The duo deactivated their stealth technique, revealing themselves.

Upon seeing them clearly, Martial Emperor Juexing and his two companions revealed looks of disbelief. “So it’s you two who have been tailing us!”

The next second, their eyes burned fervently. They had regretted missing out on a heavenly opportunity, but who would have thought that the target would come knocking on their door?!

“You recognize this man and dog?” asked a black-robed, black-haired elder of the Panwu Dao Court party. He was holding a copper mirror inscribed with arcane dao runes.

His group consisted of five Emperor experts, and he was the leader. Enveloped in strands of intimidating silver lightning, he looked majestic.

This elder was Battle Emperor Jingya, an eighth realm fossil of Panwu Dao Court.

Previously, he had relied on the copper mirror in his hand to detect Lin Xun and Big Yellow as they had been secretly following Martial Emperor Juexing's group.

However, out of worry that he would alert the prowlers, Battle Emperor Jingya had pretended like he hadn’t noticed anything. Instead, he had stopped Martial Emperor Juexing’s group and secretly informed them about this.

As a result, the newly formed group of Emperor experts had decided to set up an ambush near the entrance of the secret realm to catch the prowlers in one fell swoop.

“Of course we recognize him. If I’m not mistaken, then that man is...the nebula-famous Emperor Daoyuan, or we can call him the notorious remnant of Fangchun Mountain!” Martial Emperor Juexing hid nothing as his eyes locked onto Lin Xun like electricity.

Emperor Daoyuan!

Battle Emperor Jingya and the rest of his party grew restless. They revealed unusual expressions as the way they looked at Lin Xun changed, as if they hadn’t expected that the prey would be such a big fish.

Suddenly, Big Yellow grunted with displeasure.

I, the hallowed Roaring Battle Emperor, is right in front of them, but all they can see is Lin Xun and ignore me completely!

The dog’s cold grunt jolted the memory of an Emperor from Panwu Dao Court. This person exclaimed in surprise, “Is that dog...Roaring Battle Emperor who accompanied the Master of Copper Sparrow House in his conquests for many years!?”

The entire field glanced over, and some people uncontrollably paled.

Roaring Battle Emperor!

Who didn't know about the number one general under the Master of Copper Sparrow House?

It was just that none of them had related this stray yellow dog to the three majestic words of ‘Roaring Battle Emperor.’

This was simply unexpected.

“Looks like we'll have to get rid of this old dog first before we can capture Emperor Daoyuan.” Battle Emperor Jingya's eyes were ruthless.

In his memory, Roaring Battle Emperor wasn’t very scary and was at best a loyal dog of the Copper Sparrow House’s leader. Even though this dog had made quite a fiendish name in the nebula a long time ago, most of that notoriety was thanks to its master.

“Ha, hahaha...” Big Yellow burst out laughing in rage.

These old bastards... Are their eyes for decoration?!

“You know, they wouldn’t dare underestimate you like this if you reveal your true cultivation.” Even Lin Xun couldn't help but smile.

These old timers had no idea how powerful the current Big Yellow was.

“Showing my true might for these idiots? They aren’t worth it!” Big Yellow was scornful and prideful, with arrogance written all over its face.

Exchanging lighthearted jokes, the duo looked completely unperturbed and showed not the slightest bit of awareness of being prey. This stunned Martial Emperor Juexing, Battle Emperor Jingya, and the rest of their group.

The two of them are in the middle of such a desperate situation. How dare they still be so rampant?

“They clearly have something to rely on. We must not be careless. When we strike later, make sure to go all out,” advised Martial Emperor Juexing.

The others nodded. As Emperor experts, they would not lower their guard out of confidence.

Big Yellow smiled humorlessly. “Why strike later when I can grant you a dignified death now? If you slit your own throat right here and now, I promise to properly put each of you into a coffin, bury you, and set up a tombstone. You and how you died shall be remembered by the hundreds of millions of future generations.”

“Old dog, your master will be dead soon, and you still dare to clamor? Not scared that you’ll be slaughtered?” shouted the burly Battle Emperor Huntong.

“Wouldn’t that be great? We can make a dog stew,” another chimed in.

Despite the teasing provocation, the atmosphere in the field had already become oppressive and murderous. The verbal exchanges were actually an invisible test and confrontation.

“Is that so?” Big Yellow's eyes were ghostly. “Then I would like to see if you lot have the ability to make that happen!”

Swish!

The dog vanished and appeared in front of Battle Emperor Huntong in a split second.

“Scram!” roared Battle Emperor Huntong as his black armor erupted with a glow of earth-shaking energy. He made a seal gesture with his right hand and fiercely smashed it out.

Boom!

The void collapsed in a raging storm of light.

The palm strike was incomparably ferocious.

However, Big Yellow’s response was a snort. It lifted its paw and heavily pushed at the air, and the whole world seemed to crumble into a boundless torrent of destruction.

Battle Emperor Huntong's sturdy body was slapped to pieces of blood and gore by this paw strike, and his primordial spirit ground to bits. He died on the spot.

The bloody scene rattled everyone.

“That’s for buzzing in front of me. The little fly was simply tired of living,” Big Yellow disdainfully spat.

“Attack!”

Martial Emperor Juexing, Battle Emperor Jingya, and the others all revealed grave looks while their hearts were in turmoil. Knowing they couldn’t afford to hesitate, they immediately jumped into action.

“DIE!”

Treasure light roared and dao sounds reverberated as the seven Emperor experts from the two great courts of All-Demon and Panwu charged toward Big Yellow with their treasures and skills.

Anyone could see that the dog was the greatest threat here!

The area was instantly plunged into chaos and disintegration. A fight between Emperors was never something to scoff at, as they had the power to pluck the stars and take down the moon at every turn with world-destroying power.

In the center of this kind of siege, Big Yellow’s fur was glowing as it finally demonstrated the horrifying might of the Emperor Ancestor Stage.

It was clearly a dog, but it resembled a dao overlord. The sheer might it released put an overwhelming pressure on the region. Feeling this, the opponents stopped breathing, so panic-stricken that color was quickly drained from their faces.

“Damn it! This old dog has reached the Ancestor Stage!”

“We've been fooled. Run!”

Shouts and cries of utter shock and fear rang out. Not to mention a stray dog, even an ant could strike despair into any Emperor when it possessed the power of the Ancestor Stage!

“Run? Did I give you permission?” Big Yellow coldly snorted.

Its claws swatted horizontally at the air, sending out a dao light that was laced with the supreme might of an Ancestor. The light overbearingly blotted out the sky and earth.

Rumble!

One after another, the fleeing Emperors were slashed to death as if they were made of paper. Their corpses fell apart and evaporated in the boundless dao light that killed them.

A few moments later.

Martial Emperor Juexing, Battle Emperor Jingya, and the rest of their party had been slaughtered while in a state of shock.

From start to end, there had been no room for Lin Xun to intervene. He wanted to tell Big Yellow to leave one alive, but he had been a step too late to say it.

The smoke and dust dispersed, revealing a Big Yellow who seemed dissatisfied at the easy fight. It spat viciously, “Stupid idiots, that's what you get for bearding the lion!”

They had been dazzling, preeminent Great Emperors for a long time, worshiped by countless beings like gods.

However, in the eyes of an Emperor Ancestor like Big Yellow, they were just that pathetic!

Was it because they weren’t strong?

No.

It was because Big Yellow was much stronger than them!

“Let's go.” Lin Xun felt no emotions about this as he flew toward the Flying Immortal River.

Big Yellow collected the scattered spoils of war with a wave of its paw, then flew after him.

All that was left in the field was mangled flesh and blood.

The Flying Immortal River was expansive and magnificent, unfurling from the sky like a strip of stars from the nine heavens. The water was a blinding white, flashing with a divine glow.

Rumor had it that the river originated from a divine spring in the Kunlun Dominion. Its water was a perfect fusion of clear and turbid, allowing it to rapidly course through the void.

In order to enter the Kunlun Dominion, one must leap up and over the river, trace its trajectory to its source, and then enter.

Seeing the familiar Flying Immortal River, Lin Xun was taken back to the past when he had first come here.

At the time, he had only been a supreme Saint, accompanied by A’hu, Toady, A’lu, and Little Silver.

So many years had passed before this revisit. Now, he was already a supreme Great Emperor. The only thing missing was the companions from back then.

“I wonder where they are nowadays...” Lin Xun's eyes lost focus for a quick moment, but then he shook his head.

Together with Big Yellow, he leapt into the air and headed toward the zone of nothingness where the Flying Immortal River was dropping from.
