Immortal of the Ages

Chapter 718: Mortal Dust Calamity Dragon!

Such was this Emperor of mortals and Immortals alike. Without another word, he struck decisively, targeting Yun Xiao first and foremost. Clearly, he knew who posed the greatest threat among his foes.

Yun Xiao suddenly felt an immense oppressive force crashing down on him, making his pupils contract in shock.

Before him, the sky seemed to split into two distinct halves. On the left shimmered the platinum-coloured Imperial Arts of the Celestial Court. On the right roared the tumultuous fury of a Sin of Heaven.

In him, the essence of righteousness and evil merged, creating a stunning visual impact.

"He possesses the Immortal Asylum, but he's not just the Immortal Asylum..." Yun Xiao was certain that, at this moment, the White Emperor was fully conscious and not merely a puppet.

With his right arm turned a sanguine red, the White Emperor grasped the crimson Immortal Asylum, while his left hand waved through the air, summoning four grand celestial treasures that arrayed above his head, radiating divine brilliance.

"The Seal of Heaven, Tower of Boundless Skies, Bell of Shattering Cosmos, and Scroll of Vermillion!" The millions of Immortals furrowed their brows, their hearts pounding.

These four celestial treasures were the foundation of the Celestial Court, a legacy passed down through the imperial lineage for eons. Each artifact was known for its ancient and storied past. Who among them would not recognize these?

They were all supreme celestial treasures of the Upper Divine Heaven grade!

In the presence of such supreme artifacts, celestial treasures like the Boundary Defining Divine Needle were mere trash.

BOOM! The golden celestial seal shaped like a giant dragon, the multicolored glass tower, the ancient white bell, and a scroll dark as obsidian illuminated the skies above the divine land of the Celestial Court.

The four supreme treasures drew together the auspicious energy of the Azure Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin, and Black Tortoise, like four guardian beasts defending the Heavenly Palace, their righteous divine might dominating all directions.

With the Immortal Asylum in one hand and the four grand celestial treasures in the other, the White Emperor was the epitome of a perfect celestial warrior... but he was not finished yet!

His most famed skill was not these artifacts, but his dual mastery of swords and sigils!

As the four celestial treasures unleashed their power, in the White Emperor's palm materialized a pure golden Sword Soul. This Sword Soul transformed into a Flying Sword, wrapped in what seemed like 100 five-clawed golden dragons. Each dragon was in fact a Sword Prison.

A hundred Sword Prisons! This was the true number one sword of the Celestial Court, the Soaring Sword Soul!

And the White Emperor was not done yet. In the center of his brow, a white Life Sigil formed, pure and radiant with sacred light. It blossomed into four divine flowers, which then adhered themselves to the four grand celestial treasures. Instantly, these artifacts were imbued with a sanctity that was unmistakably meant to drive out demons and evil.

This Supreme White Sigil, transformed into the four divine flowers, also contained 100 Rune Prisons, unmatched across the heavens.

"Supreme White Overpowers, Seals Heaven, Shatters Cosmos, Vermilion Scriptures of the Boundless Sky!"

This scripture described the revered White Emperor of Taiwei. As a Sword, Inscription, and Martial Immortal, he represented the pinnacle of the Celestial Court's power.

Before the scandal of the incense offerings was uncovered, he was the faith of mortals and Immortals alike.

Now, the White Emperor wielded the Immortal Asylum as well.

His actions, unveiled all at once, had a clear purpose: to swiftly cut through the chaos, annihilate the four challengers, reclaim his command over heaven and earth, and protect his dynasty and reign.

Of course, such fierce and decisive behavior was largely influenced by the Violence represented by the Yaksha Ancestor, a Sin of Heaven.

Though violent, the White Emperor's movements were methodical. He first used the Life Sigil to enhance the four celestial treasures, boosting their synergy and control.

Yet, in the next instant, instead of attacking Yun Xiao with these empowered tools, he used the Seal and Bell in one group, and the Scroll and Tower in another, targeting Yun Xiao’s allies behind him—Pale Revenant and the Great Mother.

These two female demons, though in human form, were mountainous beasts in essence, brimming with explosive power. The White Emperor was well aware of their threat.

BOOM! The golden Seal of Heaven transformed into a massive mountain, crushing down upon the Great Mother, while the Bell of Shattering Cosmos vibrated through space, creating rippling tears aimed at her visage.

Empowered by the Supreme White Sigil, these celestial treasures met the Great Mother with purifying, incinerating force, presenting a severe threat to corpse demons.

However, the Great Mother sensed the danger but did not experience it.

"Why?" she pondered briefly, then realized with a gleam of joy in her heart.

"Immortal Yun's purification has cleansed the corpse energy from my body. So, I have no corpse energy, only the pure power of a corpse demon!"

So, the Supreme White Sigil could no longer restrain her.

"Immortal Yun's purification brings transcendence and liberation, while the White Emperor’s purges with destruction and oppression."

Though a demon, the Great Mother could clearly feel the difference between the two. This distinction between Yun Xiao and the White Emperor was profound in her mind; the former inspired goodness, while the latter used righteousness and morality to oppress the weak for his own glory.

Feeling the warmth from Yun Xiao’s benevolence, her heart surged with boundless conviction. And as a mortal from the mortal realm and a once-hopeful ascender, it also harbored profound rage and intent to slay the White Emperor.

With a resounding boom, the Great Mother’s lithe eight-foot frame surged skyward, her fists pounding like giant beasts upon the Seal of Heaven, causing a shockwave explosion!

This punch marked the commencement of the final battle.

Meanwhile, Pale Revenant faced the Vermilion Scroll and the Tower of Boundless Skies, generating explosive shocks. Clearly more agile and fluid than the Great Mother, the little maid moved with grace and charm.

On the other hand, the Great Mother, whose towering legs stood taller than Pale Revenant, displayed pure raw power. She smashed the Bell of Shattering Cosmos, sending this celestial treasure soaring tens of thousands of meters into the air.

"The White Emperor clearly aims to use these four celestial treasures to suppress the corpse demons, preventing them from aiding me," Yun Xiao thought as the two corpse demons and the four celestial treasures battled fiercely, achieving the White Emperor’s purpose.

Without pausing, the White Emperor, holding the sanguine Immortal Asylum, took strides of 1,000 meters and smashed it down in front of Yun Xiao!

The Immortal Asylum emitted a piercing beastly roar, like a crimson world descending, shattering the cosmos and quaking the earth where it struck.

"Die!"

The voice mixed with imperial authority and beastly screams emanated from the White Emperor's half-human, half-monkey face, contorted in a savage grin right before Yun Xiao.

BOOM! Yun Xiao swiftly extended his hand and astonishingly caught the sanguine Immortal Asylum barehanded.

BOOM!

The ground beneath him shattered, creating endless web-like fissures.

The White Emperor’s face twisted in disbelief as he growled, "You can catch it barehanded?"

A pair of dull yellow eyes cracked open on Yun Xiao's face. The Nian sneered back at the White Emperor.

"Foolish monkey, do you think the Immortal Asylum belongs only to you? I have a part in it too!"

"What, you're still alive? Weren't you devoured, you starving dog?" The White Emperor sneered back, his right arm forcefully pulling the Immortal Asylum back from Yun Xiao's grasp.

This proved his stronger control over the Immortal Asylum.

However, as the White Emperor reclaimed the Immortal Asylum, Yun Xiao was not idle. His body surged with violet dragon patterns as the Prison Warden Sigil, in the Dao Dragon Form, enveloped him completely!

BOOM! The power of the Mortal Dust Devil Blood was also amplified by the Prison Warden Sigil

Mortal Dust Calamity Dragon!

Without a word, Yun Xiao pressed his palm against the White Emperor's face!

A crimson dragon head erupted from his palm, biting into the White Emperor's monkey face as the refining power of the Mortal Dust Blood Calamity surged, infiltrating the White Emperor’s forehead.

"KYAAAH!" The White Emperor let out a soul-tearing howl, filled with shock and disbelief.

BOOM! In a desperate move, he thrust Yun Xiao away with the Immortal Asylum, stumbling backward, shattering the ground for hundreds of meters!

RIP! In this violent separation, Yun Xiao tore off half of the White Emperor’s face!

The White Emperor held onto his bloodied face. Through the cracks between his fingers, the eyeball of the Yaksha Ancestor now appeared even more grotesquely visible, looking as though it would fall out of its socket.

He glared at Yun Xiao, a roar of rage escaping him, his murderous intent skyrocketing.

“The Yaksha Ancestor didn't escape the Immortal Asylum, it merely invaded the White Emperor’s body with its blood essence, and my Mortal Dust Blood Calamity can refine it.”
