Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

The demonic qi was becoming increasingly dense, indicating that they were nearing the entrance to the Demon Realm and Immortal Realm. Chu Linfeng and his companions grew more cautious.

All the resentful spirits encountered were slain by Chu Linfeng. Although most of them were invisible, the sounds they made upon dying could be distinctly heard.

Everyone was curious about how Chu Linfeng could accurately kill those resentful spirits, not knowing the secret of his Eye of Ice and Fire, which he hadn’t shared.

After walking several miles without encountering more resentful spirits, Chu Linfeng said, ”The demonic qi is getting denser. I suggest we split up; it will be easier to search. If you discover Zuo Gufei, raise an alarm immediately. Given our speed, we should be able to gather quickly.”

”Lin Feng is right. Splitting up could be a good strategy. We don’t know if our assumption is correct; if Zuo Gufei isn’t here, it’ll be a real problem,” said Nangong Ming.

Subsequently, the four split up. Chu Linfeng walked straight along the path, while Nangong Ming and Grand Elder went left, and Qin Xiaojiao went right, all wielding weapons as this area was dangerous, potentially housing more strong adversaries like Zuo Gufei.

Some remnants from the Demon Realm might also appear here, as only demonic qi can sustain them, caution was necessary.

After walking roughly a hundred meters, Chu Linfeng used Light Transformation to turn invisible, enhancing his safety. Light Transformation’s invisibility doesn’t consume much Light Element, and he could sustain it for days with his current second-layer proficiency.

As time slowly passed, Chu Linfeng expanded his Divine Sense and truly encountered someone from the Demon Realm, though their strength was only at the early to middle stage Immortal Monarch level.

He didn’t immediately kill them, fearing the noise would alert others and make them flee, particularly if Zuo Gufei was really here.

The response depended on how many there were. He wouldn’t fear them if they involved Nangong Ming or Qin Xiaojiao; thus, Chu Linfeng held back, planning to deal with Zuo Gufei first before attending to those men later.

The demonic qi besieged Chu Linfeng with a sense of unease; it was unnatural for such dense demonic qi to appear in the Immortal Realm, indicating a large gap at the barrier entrance or that the entrance was about to be breached.

If the latter was true, it posed a great danger. He decided to investigate, promptly arriving at a cliff and noticing demonic qi continuously emanating outward.

The demonic qi of the Demon Realm resembles the Immortal Spirit Qi of the Immortal Realm — they don’t naturally cluster together. This phenomenon occurs because a massive suction force from a gap here draws in the demonic qi.

The width of the cliff was unknown, and the absence of a seal was peculiar. This should be the entrance from the Demon Realm to the Immortal Realm, yet no massive seal appeared; perhaps the seal had already been compromised, enabling direct access from the Demon Realm to the Immortal Realm.

After surveying with Divine Sense, there were no signs of life around, puzzling Chu Linfeng about his possibly erroneous assumption that Zuo Gufei would choose this location due to the dense demonic qi.

Suddenly, a mighty thunderous roar came from the right — the sound suggesting combat from high-level fighters. Chu Linfeng immediately thought of Zuo Gufei.

The right was the direction Qin Xiaojiao had taken; indeed, enemies seemed to collide unexpectedly. Chu Linfeng’s figure vanished as he instantly teleported, arriving in the blink of an eye, alongside Nangong Ming and Grand Elder.

However, being invisible, Nangong Ming wasn’t aware of Chu Linfeng’s arrival. Carefully watching, he saw Qin Xiaojiao battling a black-robed man exuding demonic qi, evidently from the Demon Realm.

While considered as someone from the Demon Realm, the black-robed man declared, ”I didn’t manage to kill you last time, Qin Xiaojiao. You’ve come to me of your own accord this time. Do you think that I cannot truly kill you?”

The words fell, and everyone was astonished — who else could he be but Zuo Gufei? They had indeed found him unexpectedly.

”Zuo Gufei, you’re certain to die today! Daring to practice demon techniques makes you a target for execution by anyone in the Immortal Realm. No wonder you didn’t dare go to Cold Sha Emperor Palace; seems you have some self-awareness,” Qin Xiaojiao retorted angrily.

Zuo Gufei glanced at Nangong Ming and Grand Elder, chuckling, ”Don’t think any of you can leave today. Did you truly assume I’m alone here? Two demon kings, show yourselves. These two are among the strongest sect masters in the Immortal Realm, and slaying them would be like taking out half of the Immortal Realm.

If the demonic army invades the Immortal Realm, the chances of victory would greatly increase; plus, there’s no escape for them if we team up.”

Then, two middle-aged men in black appeared amid spatial tremors, exuding the aura of late-stage Immortal Emperor Realm masters, creating a scene of evenly matched forces.

Qin Xiaojiao and Nangong Ming were startled, not by the appearance of two formidable opponents, but believing Chu Linfeng hadn’t shown up; his presence meant that even two more opponents would spell defeat for them.

Zuo Gufei laughed, ”You guys are too bold. In the Immortal Realm, I’m only wary of that kid Chu Linfeng. But since you didn’t bring him, you’re doomed to die today.”

Chu Linfeng, eager to speak, suppressed himself, instead preparing to launch a surprise attack on the demon king nearest to him, stealthily approaching while holding the Cyan Frost Divine Sword in one hand and the Sky Mirror in the other.

The Light Element concealed both weapons equally in invisibility, but with a skilled opponent, he moved cautiously to avoid exposing himself.

”Zuo Gufei, don’t rejoice too soon; even without Chu Linfeng’s presence, you’re still doomed. Coming here means I’m confident enough to deal with you. Mere demon kings are beneath my notice,” Nangong Ming declared.

Though puzzled by Chu Linfeng’s absence, suspecting he might be tangled with other demon realm men, no combat sounds made him doubt any escape attempt.

One demon king, angered at Nangong Ming’s disdain, growled, ”Let me see how mighty you are!”

Before the words fell, a sudden white light shot at him. The Sky Mirror’s beam inflicted heavy damage on demon realm foes, and simultaneously, a sharp sword qi, with the velocity of a thunderbolt, attacked his body...
