Chapter 1211: Chapter 292: Three Blossoms Bloom, the Ghost King Emerges

It seems these Immortal Venerates have quite a few tricks up their sleeves, but they guard against each other and cannot cooperate, making them as easy to kill as Ten Thousand Beasts.

However, to deal with the Immortal Venerates within the Immortal Realm, one must first deal with the person in front of them.

Ning Zheng’s gaze fell on the Immortal Vein Immortal Venerate before him, and he said flatly:

"Relying on repeated death and rebirth to shake off the black tribulation qi taint is indeed a clever method."

"But you should have realized the gap between us, haven’t you? You have been imprisoned for years; surrendering is not a bad choice."

Before Ning Zheng’s voice fell, the Immortal Vein Immortal Venerate struck again.

"I’ve never surrendered in my life!" He wrapped chains around his fists, his breath heavy, and suddenly attacked again,

"Even if imprisoned and having my bones dug out and marrow devoured for millions of years."

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the next second, his body was devoured by densely packed Shadow Crocodiles, reducing him to a skeleton, quickly fallen.

The overwhelming tribulation qi led him to death.

And the next instant, he was reborn, revived, returning to peak condition, leaping up from the Earth Vein of the Immortal Realm to continue punching!

Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!

His eyes were filled with arrogant killing intent, his movements unaffected by the previous death.

Just wielding fists.

Only wielding fists!

Meanwhile, his body was constantly evolving, adjusting Divine Techniques, transforming into an enveloping tribulation qi Divine Technique.

Just like the Embers Ning Zheng had seen before, adapting to the environment, changing his fundamental attributes.

The next moment, he seemed to transform into the End of the Dharma Immortal Venerate, spitting thick black calamity, like rings of gray smoke.

Whoosh!

He grinned, full of wildness, no longer fearing such karmic force infection, stepping onto Ning Zheng’s path.

"Step onto your path, surpass you!"

The Immortal Vein Immortal Venerate laughed heartily:

"This world is too lonely, let me prove the Way of [Tribulation] Immortal Venerate, let’s walk side by side!"

"I lost last time, but give me another chance, how can I lose again? I still have unfinished missions!"

Among the blasting dust, constant roarings emerged, his fists already condensed with black tribulation qi, his entire being turned into a black tribulation shadow.

But his mind grew unclear, shrouded in the thick tribulation smoke, his eyes brutal and cruel.

He couldn’t withstand disasters as well as Ning Zheng could, almost using his own life to resist the terrifying side effects!

Ning Zheng showed a hint of surprise, finding it interesting, "Are you dispersing my tribulation qi, sure you’re not helping me?"

"Kill!" The Immortal Vein Immortal Venerate laughed, "Both helping you and killing you! I don’t trust you! I only trust myself, dispersing your tribulation qi, I can have the chance to step onto your path! Replace you!"

A trace of brutality and bloodthirst appeared on his face, "If I don’t succeed, die under your hands, then I’ve helped you! I don’t know who you are, but it’s better than letting the era fall into those bastards’ hands!"

Roar!

He let out a low roar, the black tribulation qi between the two sides fiercely clashed, energy exploded, constant booming sounds of combat echoed.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The killing intent in the heavens seemed to solidify.

As if two World-Ending Demon Gods were fighting, stealing authority from each other, contending for this sole path.

And the terrifying calamity qi was distorting, erasing his consciousness, turning the Immortal Vein Immortal Venerate into a complete Demon Venerable.

His consciousness grew more frantic, blurry, neurotic, yet he seemed to hold onto one belief.

"Damn! How could I possibly fall here? I came from the Embers, I want to return to the Embers! I must become an Immortal Venerate in the [Future], stand at the world’s apex! Return to the [Past] to fulfill our dreams! Change the result of that battle!"

Beast-like roars filled every inch of the heavens.

The world trembled, the river of stars reversed, everyone in the surrounding worlds looked at this maniacal, frenzied person.

"Do you know what kind of pain I have endured? Skinning, tendon removal, bone cutting, all Immortal Stones from the All Heavens and Myriad Realms carved from me, I was in so much pain I wished to die!!!"

The earth shattered, the river of stars collapsed, bearing the lives of the Immortal Realm, the golden god wielding chains roared and wielded fists.

It seemed to completely tear the era apart, shaking the heavens and earth.

"Endured for so long!"

Immortal Vein Domain Immortal Venerate’s entire aura changed, bearing the Immortal Realm, he turned his shackles and chains into a long whip, lightly flicking, a dense, black tribulation qi aimed at Ning Zheng.

"Dragged for so long!"

Boom! Boom! Boom! Pure black palm crossed through heavy space, striking various realms, stirring the Star Sea, he suddenly punched, "Now the opportunity to become Celestial Phenomenon Immortal Venerate is in front of me, this is my only chance, I will never lose again!"

He leaped lightly, fiercely punched Ning Zheng in the face.

"Endure, endure! Endure! I can endure more than anyone, I’ve endured more calamities than anyone, I am the real..."

The next second, the world seemed to shatter, countless extreme pure black hatred burst from him, the greater calamity qi he held within.

Upon witnessing this scene, the gods of the Immortal Realm couldn’t help but change their expressions slightly.

"This lunatic." The Refining Cauldron Immortal Venerate said coldly, "Holy Spirit, aren’t you going to do something about this guy?"

The Holy Spirit Immortal Venerate replied indifferently, "How should I handle it? This is indeed the best way—to block his path, leaving them nowhere to go!"

"But absorbing the Tribulation Qi is one thing. Soon this Tribulation Qi will seep into the Immortal Realm behind him, seep into our place." Venerable Zhongluan sneered beside him.

"Then will you fight?" The Holy Spirit Immortal Venerate responded indifferently.

Venerable Zhongluan fell silent.

In this circumstance, all they needed was to persist.

Hold out until the prehistoric Three Immortal Venerates find out someone is blocking their way, and they can retreat to prehistoric refuge, and consider their options carefully.

Whether the Immortal Vein Immortal Venerate died or lived, it was none of their concern.

In the sky, rolling attacks continued to clash with each other.

Both sides continued to engage with each other relentlessly.

The Immortal Vein Immortal Venerate wasn’t like Ning Zheng who could suppress Tribulation Qi.

He could only endure it.

Revival after death, revival.

But gradually, he adapted to the Tribulation Qi and mastered the ways of utilizing it, increasing his combat power every moment.

The speed of the confrontation accelerated, the combat grew fiercer, drawing near to the speed of transcending the Tribulation Dao.

A feeling of oppression descended from the sky, crushing heavily on everyone’s hearts, as if entering a cemetery strewn with tombstones, carrying a weighty, suffocating sense of deathly silence.

In the next second, everyone felt a sudden unsettling sensation emanating from the body of the Immortal Vein Immortal Venerate.

Suddenly, the calamity surrounding the Immortal Vein Immortal Venerate vanished.

A complete Three Flowers emerged atop his head.

Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, I know who I am.

He transcended the Embers body, truly awakening as the Ghost King.

"Three flowers bloom, I know who I am."

"Finally!" He raised his hands, strands of black light refining and elevating in his hands, as though the world was collapsing, Hongmeng first opened, the first breath of the great Dao erupting between heaven and earth, reminiscent of the first peal of thunder, like firecrackers exploding.

"Excellent!"

"The real me has come alive; my life only holds one chance now."

His eyes were filled with cruelty, naked killing intent:

"I am no longer the Earth-bound Spirit, cannot revive from the Embers, cannot adapt to Tribulation Qi through repeated cycles of death and rebirth."

"Is the path through Tribulation Qi to rely on just one life now?"

The Immortal Vein Immortal Venerate laughed softly, "I’ve never been so close to achieving Dao. If I can achieve Dao, I can go back and help him."

Feeling the Tribulation Qi distorting his mind, he suddenly recalled his years as the leader of the Xians, during the dawn of the future, leading the other Xians in campaigns.

One Xian raised the sword of courage.

The second Xian embraced a corpse, donning a comrade’s medal.

The third Xian carried a companion’s corpse and embarked on a journey.

The fourth Xian taught him under the setting sun, proclaiming the final battle.

He, as the fifth leader, carried a companion’s corpse, facing the strongest opponent—a group from the ancient tombs of the Three Immortal Venerates, the foremost prodigies of past history.

No matter how strong the existence that emerged from the Xian corpses, how deep they were, it was no match for the strongest talents humanity amassed throughout history, exiled to this era.

They were defeated; everyone died.

Boom boom boom!!!

A storm of wild aura exudes an unstoppable, world-dominating grandeur.

His eyes were sharp as a hawk’s, as if the ancient ruler completely revived, descending upon this earthly world.

"Some monopolize the era to become superior beings, some sever the past to rid oneself of superior beings."

"As I once carried comrades, now, what am I carrying?"

"Carrying superior beings?"

Endless Tribulation Qi circled around his consciousness, infiltrating and polluting his soul, lamented thoughts and beliefs echoed in his heart, feeling himself being slowly killed.

"My only road to survival is proving the Dao before being killed by Tribulation Qi."

The eyes of the Immortal Vein Immortal Venerate revealed endless desolation,

Roar!

As the thought turned, the black flame on Immortal Vein Immortal Venerate’s body erupted completely, the vast and surging black Tribulation Qi continuously absorbed into his body.

"At every moment I endure pain and torment, now it’s just to embrace deeper torment..."

He became darker! More intense! More insane!

Every inch of his skin grew purely black, his flesh, bones, all decayed, he seemed to transform into a shadow of pure black brandishing chains.

Scorched black storms swirled upon him, a bloodthirsty smile cut across him, "Are you ready?"
