Boom!
As they collided, the very fabric of space seemed to unravel and stitch itself back together incessantly.
Yet, neither Ling Yangcheng nor Lei Tianchun showed any hesitation. They unleashed a barrage of Immortal Arts, their powers clashing without respite.
In an instant, they had soared a hundred thousand feet into the heavens. The cataclysmic impact of their Immortal Energies plunged the surrounding thousand miles into utter turmoil.
Amidst this epic confrontation between Ling Yangcheng and Lei Tianchun, Cang Shi made his entrance into the void, advancing slowly toward the Sky-Breaking Immortal Sect.
With each step, his presence intensified, draining the color from the faces of many within the Sky-Breaking Immortal Sect.
Ultimately, even the Gold Immortals of the Heaven-Cleaving Immortal Sect felt suffocated by the weight of his aura.
Ling Zhong, the formidable Great Elder of the Heaven-Cleaving Immortal Sect and a third-grade Golden Immortal, summoned his full strength to counter the overwhelming presence. Fixing his gaze on Cang Shi, he demanded, "You're not allied with the Wind Lightning Immortal Sect. Who are you, really?"
Cang Shi replied coolly, "I am Cang Shi, from the Cangshan Immortal Sect."
A member of the Cang Mountain Immortal Sect!
Ling Zhong's face contorted with shock.
In that moment, he pieced together the puzzle. The Wind and Thunder Immortal Sect's boldness in targeting the Heavenly Immortal Sect was underpinned by support from the Green Mountain Immortal Sect's experts.
Already a notch above the Sky Immortal Sect, the Wind Lightning Immortal Sect's alliance with a formidable Cangshan Immortal Sect warrior spelled imminent peril for the Sky Immortal Sect.
Taking a deep breath, Ling Zhong bowed respectfully to Cang Shi. "Esteemed Daoist Cang Shi, the Sky-Breaking Immortal Sect has never crossed paths with the Green Mountain Immortal Sect. I implore you, do not meddle in the affairs between the Sky-Breaking Immortal Sect and the Wind Thunder Immortal Sect."
"I have no interest in meddling with your squabbles," Cang Shi stated, shaking his head. "However, Lei Tianchun made me an offer I couldn't refuse. My presence here today is simply to collect payment for averting a crisis on behalf of others."
Elder Ling Zhong's eyes blazed with intensity as he retorted icily, "So, you're set on interfering with today's affairs?"
"Let's skip the pointless chatter," Cang Shi replied dismissively, fixing Ling Zhong with a detached gaze. "If you value your life, there might still be time to surrender peacefully."
"Our Heaven-Cleaving Immortal Sect has never harbored cowards since its inception!" Ling Zhong declared, his slightly stooped figure suddenly stretching taller, his third-tier Golden Immortal power surging forth in full force.
Boom!
A colossal golden palm, spanning ten thousand feet, plummeted from the heavens like a meteorite, bearing down on Cang Shi. Even before it made contact, its formidable presence caused the space above Cang Shi to warp and collapse.
"You're out of your league!" Cang Shi's aura, a pale yellow immortal light, flared dramatically as he lunged forward. His fist, mighty as a towering mountain, hurtled towards the immense golden palm.
Boom!
Fist met palm in a cataclysmic clash.
In that moment, a cacophony of explosions echoed through the air. Energy streams ripped through the fabric of space, radiating outward in every direction.
"Puchi!"
Ling Zhong's frame shook violently, a sweet taste rising in his throat. Blood gushed from his mouth as he was sent hurtling backward, his figure a blur against the sky.
"Grand Elder!"
A second-tier Golden Immortal from the Heaven Breaking Immortal Sect swiftly rose to assist, absorbing some of the impact. Only then did Ling Zhong manage to regain his composure.
Ling Zhong lifted his head to meet Cang Shi's gaze across from him, his complexion ashen.
Peak fourth-tier Golden Immortal!
To Ling Zhong, this adversary from the Cangshan Immortal Sect stood at the pinnacle of the Fourth Grade Golden Immortals.
Within the ranks of the Heaven Breaking Immortal Sect, no one could rival their prowess, save for Sect Master Ling Yangcheng. With Ling Yangcheng now thoroughly engaged by Lei Tianchun, the sect was left vulnerable. What means did they have to fend off the formidable adversary before them?
"Grand Elder, this opponent is formidable. Allow me to assist you," offered a Second Stage Golden Immortal Realm Elder, his gaze locked onto Cang Shi with a grave expression.
"It's futile," Ling Zhong responded, shaking his head with a wry smile. "I fear our Heaven Breaking Immortal Sect is doomed today. We must instruct our disciples to scatter and flee for their lives."
The might of this Fourth Grade Golden Immortal from the Cangshan Immortal Sect was overwhelming. Even the combined efforts of the Heaven Breaking Immortal Sect's Golden Immortals would likely fall short against his strength.
And that wasn't all...
Looming behind Cang Shi were the covetous Golden Immortals of the Wind Lightning Immortal Sect.
In this battle, the Heaven-Cleaving Immortal Sect stood no chance.
"Cease your struggles. There is no hope for you. Surrender peacefully," Cang Shi's detached voice echoed once more.
"Quickly, obey my command!" Ling Zhong bellowed to the Tier Two Golden Immortal at his side. Without hesitation, he summoned the power of a Golden Immortal within him and launched an attack on Cang Shi.
"You're seeking your own demise!" Cang Shi's face grew icy as he conjured a heavy sword crafted from dark metal into his grasp.
With a firm grip on the sword, he unleashed a slash. The pale yellow light of the blade surged with the wind, morphing into a colossal mountain, ethereal yet imposing, bearing down on Cang Shi.
In that instant, the vast expanse of three thousand zhang, shrouded by the mountain's presence, seemed to succumb to a standstill under its overwhelming force.
Ling Zhong's form appeared to be suspended in the void, immobilized. Powerless, he could only watch the mountain's relentless descent.
"Grand Elder!" The onlookers from the Heaven-Cleaving Immortal Sect blanched at the sight, overcome with a sense of loss as profound as if they had been orphaned.
"He's completely outclassed."
In that moment, Ling Zhong let out a wry laugh within himself, resigning to his fate with closed eyes.
But then...
Just when Ling Zhong was certain of his impending doom, the crushing immortal mountain that loomed over him didn't make impact as he had anticipated.
After what felt like an eternity,
Ling Zhong couldn't resist any longer; he opened his eyes. Looking up, he was met with a sight that took his breath away.
Hovering above him was a young man clad in black, materializing as if from thin air.
The man in black stood with an air of confidence, hands casually resting behind him. Behind him, a colossal chaotic sword shadow loomed, akin to a mighty pillar supporting the heavens, holding back the descending immortal mountain.
"Jiang... Peter Parker?"
Staring at the familiar figure in black, Ling Zhong's eyes glazed over in disbelief.
Cang Shi, from the Cangshan Immortal Sect, was a formidable Fourth Grade Golden Immortal.
Despite Ling Zhong's own Third Grade Golden Immortal prowess, he stood no chance against such a foe. Yet, Peter Parker had thwarted Cang Shi's strike with merely a Heavenly Immortal's level of power!
Ling Zhong had seen Peter Parker's fearsome abilities on several occasions, but he had never imagined that Peter Parker's combat power could be so astounding.
A Heavenly Immortal going toe-to-toe with a Fourth Grade Golden Immortal!
How could this be possible?
