Immortality Starts With Diligence(Xianxia Litrpg)

623. Ambush of the Supreme

"Seven True Immortals and Martial Ancestors are trapped in the Yin-Yang Immortal Domain, facing imminent danger," Lin Fei's eyes turned icy. The Supreme from the Dark Demon Domain had personally intervened—how could they possibly relent easily?

In terms of strength, the entire Ancient Covenant, including Lin Fei, only comprised twelve True Immortals, nine Martial Ancestors, and three Hermits—a total of twenty-four powerhouses at the True Immortal level.

Now, with seven of them caught in a perilous situation, the situation was dire. True Immortals, though not facing death if their main combat avatars were destroyed, would find it difficult to regain their full strength quickly.

The three Martial Ancestors, lacking such avatars, faced even grimmer prospects—a Supreme could directly kill them. These three accounted for nearly an eighth of the Covenant's power—a crippling blow to the Ancient Covenant.

Moreover, these seven True Immortals and Martial Ancestors were on their mission to procure large quantities of dark demon life essences for Lin Fei. Their venture into the Yin-Yang Immortal Domain was a risky one, directly associated with aiding Lin Fei. Naturally, Lin Fei could not stand idly by.

With a swift movement, Lin Fei left the secret chamber and immediately sought out Azure Emperor Supreme.

"Azure Emperor Supreme, our seven True Immortals, and Martial Ancestors are in grave danger," Lin Fei reported urgently. "With a Supreme from the Dark Demon Domain acting against them, only you can save them. What are your thoughts?"

"Of course, we must rescue them," responded the Azure Emperor Supreme. "However, this time I should go alone. You are a particular thorn in the side of the Dark Demon Domain; it's too risky for you to venture there."

Azure Emperor Supreme was prepared to go alone, wishing to spare Lin Fei the danger. However, Lin Fei shook his head firmly, "That's impossible, I must go. Besides, I'm not without means to resist a Supreme. Even if I face one, I'm confident I can keep my life and retreat safely."

Lin Fei harbored a bold idea—he saw this as an opportunity. Since he was going to the Yin-Yang Immortal Domain, why not make the most of it?

His trip was not solely for rescue; it was also to collect more dark demon essences. With the highest concentration of dark demons in the Yin-Yang Immortal Domain, it was essential for him to go.

Moreover, this time was different from before. This time, Lin Fei was confident he could withstand a Supreme—at least, he could save his own life. Even if he encountered the Initial Demon Supreme again, he could still make an escape.

Seeing Lin Fei's resolute demeanor and recalling his previous escape from a Supreme, Azure Emperor Supreme no longer insisted. "Very well, we should not delay any longer. Let's depart now!"

The Azure Emperor was well aware of the dire situation. The three Martial Ancestors teetered on the brink of demise. Without any delay, they shattered the void and instantly disappeared into the void tunnel, leaving no trace behind.

...

In the Yin-Yang Immortal Domain, the situation was grim for the seven True Immortals and Martial Ancestors. The combat avatars of four True Immortals had been annihilated by the Supreme of the Dark Demon Domain.

Simultaneously, the bodies of the three Martial Ancestors had been largely obliterated. Moreover, the void was sealed. No matter their efforts, they could not break the void, much less enter the void tunnel.

Such was the power of the Supreme. It turned the very act of fleeing into a luxury for the True Immortals and Martial Ancestors.

"This time, even if we die, we must cause trouble for the Supreme of the Dark Demon Domain. Once the order is given, detonate all particles immediately, and ensure a severe blow to him!"

This was the result of a consultation among the three Martial Ancestors. They were prepared to perish together with their enemy. Even if they did not die, if they could severely injure the Supreme, their purpose would be achieved.

Regrettably, the Supreme of the Dark Demon Domain had already anticipated the intentions of the three Martial Ancestors. Thus, with a cold laugh, he said, "Hmph, you still wish to self-destruct? Useless, before me, even suicide is a luxury. Remember, I am the Supreme of the Dark Demon Domain, the Initial Demon Supreme!"

This Supreme was none other than the Initial Demon Supreme. Ever since he failed to defeat Lin Fei, allowing him to escape, the Initial Demon Supreme had personally taken action, continuously sweeping through the Yin-Yang Immortal Domain's True Immortals and Martial Ancestors.

For the Initial Demon Supreme, a being of such high stature, to sweep through the Yin-Yang Immortal Domain's True Immortals and Martial Ancestors was an overkill.

Certainly, he could sweep away all opposition! The seven True Immortals and Martial Ancestors of the Ancient Covenant had naturally been "marked" by the Initial Demon Supreme.

"So I hear you are from the Ancient Covenant? I wonder if Lin Fei will come to save you. I have been looking for him for a long time..."

The Initial Demon Supreme sneered.

"You..."

The seven True Immortals and Martial Ancestors tried to speak. However, they were completely suppressed by the terrifying authority of the Initial Demon Supreme, struggling to move, let alone speak.

The Initial Demon Supreme was also considered in his heart.

Would Lin Fei come after all? If not to lure Lin Fei here, he would have already killed these three Martial Ancestors. Otherwise, could they really send out a distress signal?

It was impossible. The reason he allowed the three Martial Ancestors to send out a distress signal. It was also a deliberate act by the Initial Demon Supreme. It was all to attract Lin Fei.

"Hum."

Suddenly, faint ripples of space appeared within the void. The seven True Immortals and Martial Ancestors widened their eyes, their faces etched with desperation as they shouted, "Do not come, for heaven's sake, do not come!"

They feared that Lin Fei would rush here regardless of the consequences, falling right into the trap. Yet, their cries were in vain.

The ripples in the void pulsed wider and more vigorously. Clearly, someone was traversing the spatial realms, approaching rapidly.

The Initial Demon Supreme's eyes gleamed. He stared intently at the space ripples and said coldly, "So you've come at last? This time, I will not let you escape again!"

The Initial Demon Supreme was almost certain that it was Lin Fei arriving.

"Whoosh."

As a figure emerged from the void tunnel, the Initial Demon Supreme took immediate action.

"Boom."

The Initial Demon Supreme held nothing back. His attack was with full force, ambushing the one traveling through the void.

"Bang."

However, when the two forces collided fiercely, they quickly separated, and evenly matched. The Initial Demon Supreme looked at his opponent in shock.

"Not Lin Fei? Are you... the Azure Emperor?"

The Initial Demon Supreme had evidently prepared well and was familiar with some of the Supremes in the Divine Realm. Moreover, he had previously encountered the Azure Emperor Supreme in Chaos.

"Whoosh."

Just then, a familiar figure appeared, making the Initial Demon Supreme's eyes turn bloodshot, almost to the point of madness. His gaze was fixed on the figure emerging from the void tunnel.

"Lin Fei! Unexpectedly, you have brought the Azure Emperor Supreme with you this time. But do you think that having a Supreme with you will save your life?"

The Initial Demon Supreme sneered. In truth, he had hardly exerted any effort against the seven True Immortals and Martial Ancestors just moments ago. But now, with Lin Fei present, the Initial Demon Supreme would spare no expense. He was determined to slay Lin Fei!

"Whoosh."

In the next moment, the Initial Demon Supreme charged at Lin Fei. The void was immediately sealed, preventing Lin Fei from escaping through it.

Moreover, the body of the Initial Demon Supreme swelled enormously, transforming into a colossal giant towering hundreds of thousands of meters, a terrifying figure that seemed to pierce the heavens!

"Lin Fei, meet your demise!"

The Initial Demon Supreme launched his fist. Instantly, the void shattered. Pure power surged tumultuously towards Lin Fei!
