The Immortal Emperor Returns Chapter 222 - Killing the Human King

Chapter 222 Killing the Human King

Chu Xun’s eyes were brimming with vigor, yet his expression remained indifferent.
A few figures appeared and their presence released such strong pressure that even the air seemed to screech.
Ge Wuwei, Fairy Xuan and many others immediately relaxed and looked joyous, because their back ups had arrived.
“Please have mercy, my friend.”
One person forged a giant hand that reached toward Cui Xingyi, trying to rescue him.
“Get out!”
Chu Xun swung his fist and smashed that giant hand.
“How dare you!”
Ge Yingtian shouted angrily. How could Chu Xun show no regard when four Human Kings arrived all at once?
Chu Xun looked extremely apathetic. He raised his hand and slammed it downward.
“Boom!”
The ground caved in and mud flew up by at least ten meters. Accompanied by a miserable scream, Cui Xingyi’s body was cut in half at the waist.
“You have crossed the line.”
Ge Yingtian was now furious!
Chu Xun squinted and beams of cold light radiated from his eyes.
He dashed toward Ge Yingtian the next moment.
Chu Xun’s fist attack was accompanied by a clap of thunder. It sounded as if the entire space was being torn open.
Ge Yingtian was furious that Chu Xun showed no respect for the four Human Kings and he even attacked him! The thought of it made his expression turn even uglier.
He suddenly reached out a hand and channeled Internal Breath all over his body. The air around him within a radius of a hundred meters exploded and a flame rose in his right palm. His surroundings heated up instantly. It looked as if he had gone berserk.
He was using the Flame Palm, which was a very aggressive martial skill.
“Die!”
With a strong killing intent in his eyes, Ge Yingtian attacked with a growl. A scary serpent covered in flames appeared and charged toward Chu Xun.
The burning serpent leaped into the air and there were crackles due to the extremely high heat.
Chu Xun remained calm and formed a signet with one hand.
Everyone felt the air suddenly becoming more turbulent and even the earth was shaking slightly.
“Swoosh!”
The sound of a phoenix cry that was sharp enough to shatter metals echoed in the sky. A gigantic phoenix flew across the sky leaving purple flames in its trail, as it looked down on everyone on the ground. With a flip of its wings, flames ignited the entire sky.
It was the Eternal Phoenix Scripture — Rise of the Phoenix!
The phoenix dashed toward the burning serpent with a destructive energy.
“Boom!”
Accompanied by a loud explosion, the flames soon grew out of control. Everyone could see clearly the burning serpent being torn into pieces and devoured by the phoenix.
The phoenix then charged toward Ge Yingtian, aiming to take his life.
Heat engulfed the surrounding area within a radius of hundreds of meters. Rocks turned into powder. Trees were reduced into ashes and cracks developed on the ground.
Everyone continued to step back.
Ge Yingtian’s eyes widened and his face became distorted in anger. He growled while channeling his Internal Breath and even the space around him started to shake and gusts of wind sprang up near him.
Ge Yingtian held his hands out in front of him and a terrifying power erupted from his body and the wind around him coalesced into a tornado.
The tornado was like an evil dragon that connected the sky and the ground. Dust and rocks were hurled through the air.
“Boom!”
The ground shook violently and dust covered the sun. The clash between the fire phoenix and the tornado created an even bigger storm that spread across the entire space and cracked the earth. It was like the end of the world.
Meanwhile, Chu Xun flashed across the sky like a streak of lightning. He held a fist signet and attacked Ge Yingtian.
“You asked for it!”
Ge Yingtian shouted furiously and counter attacked with his fists. His voice was like a thunderclap.
“Boom!”
Their fists were like two drums, creating a deafening noise upon clashing. Everyone felt their blood surging inside their bodies after feeling the shock. Ge Yingtian was knocked back, breaking a dozen giant trees in his path.
Chu Xun caught up with him like a streak of light and attacked again.
“Bang!”
Ge Yingtian continued growling and he flew backward at a greater speed. He eventually knocked into a mountain and the spot where he landed exploded immediately.
Chu Xun attacked with both his fists, where multiple groups of purple energy were channeled and then shot out.
“Boom! Boom!”
A series of even more terrifying explosions then took place.
Everyone was shocked and scared.
“Please have mercy!”
Another person arrived. He was an elder with an aura of overwhelming energy surrounding him. He was dressed in a black robe with a golden dragon embroidered on it.
His name was Wu Ming. He was a presbyter of Tianlong Fort, a First Grade Human King.
When Wu Ming raised a hand, a black chain appeared and ripped the air apart and then charged toward Chu Xun.
Chu Xun was stunned when he saw the golden dragon embroidery on his clothes. “I wonder if Emperor Ao will tear this old man into pieces if he ever sees this,” he thought.
However, he did not delay his action. He shot a group of purple energy toward the chain.
“Boom!”
The sky was lit up by a deafening explosion.
“You are asking to die!”
Chu Xun grew slightly angry and his eyes had a fierce look in them. He left Ge Yingtian and charged toward Wu Ming.
With the energy around his fist pulsing like the roaring thunder, Chu Xun attacked with the speed of light.
“Bang!”
The two of them kept fighting without any fancy moves. There was an outburst of energy every time their fists clashed. Rocks and trees nearby exploded immediately and the ground continued to crack.
Wu Ming was knocked into the air.
Chu Xun’s bones creaked loudly as streaks of golden light started flashing and a purple mist surrounded his body. The color purple was a symbol of prosperity, so Chu Xun resembled an emperor as he attacked Wu Ming again.
Wu Ming’s eyes were filled with disbelief. He entered the Human King Realm with outstanding pugilistic skills and there was no one who could beat him. However, he was knocked away by Chu Xun’s even tougher body.
With each step Chu Xun took, he was able to travel hundreds of meters. Since he would use the reaction force from the ground every time he landed, the ground would explode wherever he stepped.
“I know he is extremely tough, yet I never expected him to be so incredibly fast!” Wu Ming thought angrily.
“Boom!”
The space seemed to be torn apart by Chu Xun’s fist. His fist signet was as powerful as the raging thunder.
Wu Ming growled as he channeled his Internal Breath to his fists and attacked. Numerous fist signets forged with Internal Breath then shot out.
“Boom! Boom!”
There was another big explosion in the sky. Wu Ming used almost twenty punches to block Chu Xun’s one fist signet.
Chu Xun looked indifferent as ever. He formed another signet single-handedly.
The sky rumbled and the entire space trembled. An extremely strong energy from the origin of the universe burst forth, heralding destruction and desolation.
An ancient, mystical giant finger with purple mist surrounding it appeared and fell toward Wu Ming.
It was the Demon-slain Finger — scaring all the gods and ghosts by the third finger!
With the enhancement by Hong Meng Immortal Qi, the Demon-slain Finger had become twice as strong as before.
Wu Ming opened his eyes wide all of a sudden and his robe fluttered in the windless air. His Internal Energy surged violently, giving off a terrifying pressure into the surroundings.
He raised his palms and pushed toward the sky. His Internal Breath gushed out like a violent flood.
“Boom!”
A terrifying mushroom cloud rose in the sky. Mountains shook and giant rocks tumbled down.
Wu Ming was smashed into the ground by the giant finger. The ground exploded and mud was blown into the air.
Everyone felt their hands and feet turning cold as they trembled in fear. They all looked like a bunch of statues.
“Boom!”
A mountain hundreds of meters away was blown into pieces from the middle section. A figure dashed out of the debris; it was Ge Yingtian.
His hair was down to his shoulders and his clothes were shredded into pieces. His face was covered in scars and bruises and he was in a really bad state.
“Boom!”
The ground below Wu Ming exploded as he dashed toward Chu Xun as well, but he looked slightly better than Ge Yingtian.
Both their faces were distorted in anger and their eyes blazed furiously.
They were the most respectable Human Kings! How could they be so humiliated?
Chu Xun kept one hand behind his back. His clothes were fluttering in the wind and his eyes were as cold as the stars in the darkest night. He stared at both of them indifferently.
Ge Yingtian and Wu Ming were both shocked and mad. They looked at each other without saying a word, yet they both understood each other’s intention — they planned to kill Chu Xun together.
“Swoosh!”
Ge Yingtian and Wu Ming attacked at the same time.
“Die!”
A three-meter long claymore suddenly appeared in Ge Yingtian’s hand. He charged toward Chu Xun and there was a cold glow around the edge of the claymore.
A sword breaker appeared in Wu Ming’s hand. He swung it toward Chu Xun, creating sounds of explosion in his path.
They were wary of Chu Xun’s terrifying power, so they brought out the weapons that they had not used for more than ten years.
Instead of stepping back, Chu Xun charged forward with the speed of light and traveled a hundred meters in the blink of an eye. He then raised his fist and got ready to attack.
“How dare you!”
Ge Yingtian and Wu Ming shouted angrily.
“Boom!”
A giant hole appeared in the ground and flesh and blood were splattered all over the place. Cui Xingyi’s body was already broken in half, now his head was smashed by Chu Xun’s fist, killing him for sure.
Human Kings were extremely tough. Take Cui Xingyi for example, he was still alive even though his body was severely wounded and severed at the waist. However, now that his head was smashed into pieces, there was no way he could still stay alive.
Everyone was scared and amazed by Chu Xun, who killed a strong Human King in such a horrible way just like that.
Ge Yingtian and Wu Ming went completely mad with rage. It was humiliating for them to see Chu Xun killing Cui Xingyi in the midst of their combined attack.
“Boom!”
The two of them charged toward Chu Xun like two enraged beasts, leaving sounds of explosion in their wake.
Chu Xun looked at them coldly and turned away calmly. He punched outward and shot out a group of purple energy.
“Save me...” Qin Zhicheng screamed in fear as he felt as if his soul had left his body.
Meanwhile, he channeled his Internal Breath and used it to attack the purple energy ball, without any plan or pattern.
“Boom!”
Blood started dripping from the sky after a terrifying explosion.
Qin Zhicheng, a top warrior of his generation, was killed by Chu Xun’s fist.
Everyone was shocked and petrified.
Meanwhile, Ge Yingtian and Wu Ming charged toward Chu Xun again.
The air was filled with the chill from the claymore and the rumbling from the sword breaker. They charged over with tremendous strength and momentum.
Chu Xun stepped back and a golden club appeared in his hand. It looked like a baseball bat, was four to five meters long and there were rays of golden light flowing over its body.
“Swoosh!”
Chu Xun swung the golden club and the air exploded with a flash of golden light.
“Clang!”
The golden club hit the falling claymore and sparks flew all over the place, unleashing an incredible energy.
Ge Yingtian was knocked into the air along with his claymore.
“Clang!”
Chu Xun swung the club again and hit the sword breaker without any fancy moves. There was a heavy thud followed by a deafening explosion.
Wu Ming was knocked to the air as well. While he was growling, he smashed a giant rock which was at least ten meters wide into pieces.
Ge Yingtian and Wu Ming both gritted their teeth and the muscles on their faces twitched violently out of anger. They then looked at each other grimly.
Ge Yingtian tightened his grip on the claymore. Blood was trickling down the handle of the claymore, apparently he was injured. Under that huge impact earlier on, the area between his thumb and index finger had been ripped open.
Wu Ming did not fare any better, either. The fingers of his right hand were completely deformed. The same area on his hand had also been torn open and blood was gushing out of the wound.
Chu Xun stared at the golden club and moved his nice-looking lips slightly.
This was the tail bone of the Ancestral Dragon.
He wondered if Emperor Ao would kill him, should he ever find out that he used his father’s tailbone as a weapon.
“I should never use this whenever Emperor Ao is present,” he reminded himself.
Chu Xun shifted his eyes and moved. He swung the golden club and hurled it toward the two Human Kings.
The tailbone of the Ancestral Dragon glowed with a golden light. Its invisible pressure made everyone tremble in fear and it had the power to destroy everything. It was truly an amazing weapon.
“Boom!”
Ge Yingtian growled and tried to block the attack with his claymore, yet the claymore had multiple cracks after receiving a tough blow.
“Boom!”
The claymore shattered into pieces after receiving another blow from the club. Ge Yingtian was sent flying to the side as well. He screamed in pain, as both his arms were broken by the enormous impact.
Chu Xun swung the golden club over and over again, unleashing an imposing power that nothing could block. He seemed to be going berserk.
“Bang!”
Everyone felt their blood heating up after hearing another heavy blow.
Wu Ming screamed as well. He was knocked into the air and the sword breaker in his hand developed cracks on its body. It would definitely break after another attack.
Chu Xun traveled a hundred meters in a flash and caught up with Ge Yingtian immediately. He then swung the club again.
“Boom!”
A blood mist filled the air and was accompanied by Ge Yingtian’s miserable screams.
His legs were shattered by Chu Xun’s club.
“Oh my goodness...”
Wu Ming made a strange screech and it sounded like he was scared out of his wits. He threw away his sword breaker and started running away into the forest like a mad dog. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from everyone’s view.
Everyone was dumbfounded. “Did a Human King just run away from a fight?”
The elder from Tianlong Fort gave the most extreme reaction. He was stunned at first, then he started crying and shouted, “F**k you, Wu Ming!”
He then saw a purple energy ball flying toward him and the next thing he knew he had become a blood mist after hearing a loud “boom”.
“Boom!”
Another explosion was heard from afar and it was also followed by another blood mist. The other half of Ge Yingtian’s body was smashed by Chu Xun.
In the end, a respectable Human King was smashed into a blood mist that nourished the earth, by Chu Xun with a golden club.
