Chapter 2462 - 2462 Retreat

2462 Retreat

Apart from Su Zimo, no one else noticed anything unusual about Jue Wuying.

Jue Wuying cultivated many cultivation techniques and was able to conceal his aura to begin with.

Nobody expected that a supreme divine power of a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal would affect a Paradise Void Perfected Immortal.

At that moment, Jue Wuying’s heart was in turmoil!

His lifespan was 60,000 years short!

Initially, he was 380,000 years old and was still at his peak for a Perfected Immortal with a lifespan of 500,000 years.

However, in just a few breaths, he was already 440,000 years old!

Although his combat strength was still present and had almost not decreased, from that moment on, he was already past his peak and had begun declining.

Under normal circumstances, he could have avoided that golden arrow perfectly.

He was confident that his calculations were spot on!

However, it was because of the decrease in his lifespan that there was a deviation in his strength.

That was the reason why the golden arrow earlier on tore his bamboo hat.

Apart from Jue Wuying and Su Zimo, no one else knew what the slight deviations in his body earlier on meant.

“How is that possible?”

Jue Wuying could not believe it.

A supreme divine power released by a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal could affect his lifespan and even reduce it by more than 60,000 years?

Unless… that was not a supreme divine power at all, but a peerless divine power!

However, that did not make sense.

Peerless divine powers had extremely high requirements for the Essence Spirit. Even a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal would die on the spot before they even released it due to the toll on their Essence Spirit, let alone a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal!

Furthermore, how could a Heaven Immortal come into contact with peerless divine powers?

Peerless divine powers were comparable to Taboo Mystic Classics.

Most Perfected Immortals had difficulty coming into contact with it.

Even if they came into contact with it, it would be difficult for them to benefit from it even if they spent their entire lives, let alone comprehend and release it.

It was no exaggeration to say that if a Perfected Immortal expert could comprehend a peerless divine power, it was almost certain that he was the Supreme Perfected Immortal of the current era!

Although Jue Wuying was enraged that he lost 60,000 years of lifespan for no reason, he did not attack Su Zimo right away.

First, Su Zimo was already standing beside Painting Immortal Mo Qing.

Painting Immortal Mo Qing wielded the Divine Ghost Immortal Fiend Diagram and he no longer had any chances.

Second, the person who fired the arrow earlier on was the greatest threat to him!

Jue Wuying looked in the direction where the golden arrow came from and saw a group of hundreds of riders approaching slowly.

All of them wore battle armor and wielded spears. The tall horses they rode were extraordinary. They had powerful auras with flames on their hooves—it was clear that they were variant immortal beasts!

Their leader wore golden armor and was tall and burly. Even though he was riding on a horse, he was far superior to others.

He had handsome features and his eyes were blue as the sea. His sockets were slightly sunken, accentuating his deep gaze and high nose bridge.

Their leader was a God race being!

The God race being had a bag of golden arrows on his back and a golden halberd on his horse’s back, wielding a gigantic bow in his hands.

Although there were not many troops, they were disciplined and every single one of them exuded steely killing intent as though they were on the battlefield!

“It’s the Imperial Army of the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom.”

Yang Ruoxu whispered, “By the looks of it, they might be on our side. I wonder who invited these reinforcements.”

Su Zimo looked over. Through the figures of the Imperial Army, he could vaguely see that there seemed to be a carriage in the middle of the hundreds of Imperial Army soldiers but he could not see who was inside.

Yang Ruoxu said, “The God race being in the lead is Shu Gehan. For some unknown reason, he chose to join the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom and become the commander of the Imperial Army.”

“This person rarely attacks. However, it’s said that his combat strength should be ranked in the top five among the Perfected Immortals of the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain!”

“Only someone from the royal family of the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom with an extremely high status could have mobilized this person!”

When he heard that, Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat as he roughly guessed the identity of the person in the carriage.

Yang Ruoxu was puzzled. “I wonder who has the power to bring the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom into this.”

Su Zimo remained silent.

Only Mo Qing seemed to have sensed something and glanced at Su Zimo instinctively.

Yang Ruoxu pondered for a moment and glanced at Painting Immortal Mo Qing before sending a voice transmission to Su Zimo secretly, “It might be Senior Sister Mo Qing. She’s the only one who has such an influence.”

“So, it’s Commander Shu. I was wondering who could have shot that arrow with such strength.”

Jue Wuying looked at Shu Gehan who was not far away and asked slowly, “May I know why you’re here, Commander Shu?”

“I’m going to take those two away.”

Shu Gehan pointed to Feng Ziyi and Perfected Immortal Burial Night who were not far away and said.

“Don’t worry.”

Su Zimo sent a voice transmission to Feng Ziyi and Perfected Immortal Burial Night with his spirit consciousness, “The people from the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom have no ill intentions.”

“And if I don’t let them go?”

Jue Wuying raised his brow slightly.

Clang!

Suddenly, Shu Gehan slapped the metal spear in front of him and said expressionlessly, “You can try.”

Apart from Shu Gehan, there were less than ten Perfected Immortals on the side of the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom.

Even if Heaven and Earth Academy and the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom joined forces, they could not compare to the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom in terms of numbers.

However, if a huge battle were to break out, the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom would probably suffer immense losses and return in defeat!

Jue Wuying felt that he could only take on Shu Gehan at most. Even then, his chances of winning were not high.

If Fairy Mo Qing were to tear the Painting Book in her hands and release many powerful ferocious beasts and living beings, it would be difficult for the Perfected Immortals of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom to defend.

Also, in the middle of the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom’s Imperial Army, there was a mysterious carriage. It looked simple without any decorations and was extremely plain.

However, Jue Wuying checked multiple times in secret to see who was sitting inside but to no avail!

After his spirit consciousness entered the carriage, it vanished instantly like a clay ox entering the sea.

Unknowns were variables!

Jue Wuying did not dare to wage war rashly.

What he said earlier on was actually just to test the determination of the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom.

However, Shu Gehan’s unyielding attitude made him want to retreat.

Furthermore, his lifespan was inexplicably reduced by 60,000 years after he was struck by a supreme divine power of a Heaven Immortal.

He wanted to go back and check as soon as possible to see if there was anything wrong with his body and how he could recover his lost 60,000 years of lifespan.

Subconsciously, he was still unable to accept that the supreme divine power of a Heaven Immortal could reduce his lifespan by 60,000 years cleanly and cause irreparable damage.

“Since you insist, Commander Shu, I’ll give you some face.”

After a long silence, Jue Wuying said slowly, “However, let me remind you that the two people you’re choosing to protect are wanted criminals of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom.”

“I’m afraid you won’t be able to bear the responsibility if a conflict breaks out between our two Immortal Kingdoms because of this, Commander Shu!”

Shu Gehan was unmoved and replied indifferently, “You don’t have to worry for me.”

“Alright!”

Jue Wuying sneered, “I’ll definitely report everything that happened today when I return. Commander Shu, I’ll remember your arrow today. I hope that you’ll be careful when you head out in the future…”

Even Shu Gehan’s expression changed instinctively and he frowned at the threat of a top-tier assassin!

With that said, Jue Wuying disappeared from the spot in a flash.

The other Perfected Immortal experts of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom exchanged glances and could only return to the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom. The thousands of Execution Guards retreated rapidly like a tide.
