Overlord Immortal King!

This is a legend that has been passed down since ancient times. In this Martial Arts World, Earth has been in a closed state for many years. After so much evolution, only the three Ancient Martial Worlds remain. Hardly anyone knows this legend now. If the Ice and Fire Dragon hadn’t survived from ancient times, using its race’s unique secret technique to live to this day, it wouldn’t recall the legend. It was a legend that resounded through the entire Martial Arts World. Whether the Ancient Alien Race, Demon Clan, or Human Clan, everyone knew it. Even in today’s Martial Arts World, if not for the problems leading to Earth being completely shut off, in some long-standing Human Clan Cultivation Sects and Cultivation Families, there would still be elder figures who would continue this legend. This legend has always inspired the righteous practitioners of the Human Clan, driving them to advance with courage and protect the Human Clan, even at the cost of their lives.

Now, Ye Tianchen stands upon the Heavenly Vault with an overlord’s stance, exuding a domineering aura as if no one else is worthy. Perhaps his combat power isn’t the strongest, but his aura is invincible, unstoppable. Even if all the world’s strong gathered, he would not retreat. Such courage and spirit are not just for show, nor can they be faked.

The Ice and Fire Dragon, witnessing Ye Tianchen’s courage and spirit, couldn’t help but think of the Overlord Immortal King legend passed down since ancient times. He was the Human Clan’s first strong figure, not only reaching the Emperor Realm but also being the first to reach the Emperor Peak. He was far more powerful than the average Emperor, nearly reaching immortality. It’s said that the Overlord Immortal King sat in the Heavenly Vault, looking down at the entire Martial Arts World below while glimpsing heavenly secrets above. When an immortal descended, intending to take the Ancient Alien Race as mounts, the Demon Clan as servants, and enslave the Human Clan, the Overlord Immortal King killed the immortal in anger and shouted so loudly that it seemed to proclaim to the heavens that as long as he lived, this Martial Arts World would not be tampered with, not even by immortals. The Human Clan shall thrive. But one night, as the sky turned entirely purple, every strong being across the Martial Arts World sensed a hint of transcendence. It was the aura of the Overlord Immortal King, seemingly undergoing a transformation…

The Ancient Alien Race was shocked, the Demon Clan trembled, and Human Clan practitioners knelt on the ground. Throughout the Martial Arts World, on countless stars, a single name echoed loudly, “Overlord Immortal King.” Eventually, the Overlord Immortal King vanished. Many said he had transformed; some said he ascended to immortality. Where the “Overlord Immortal King” went, no one knows. Yet, even after tens of thousands of years, the Overlord Immortal King’s aura still affects the laws of this Martial Arts World, deterring the strong of the Ancient Alien Race and Demon Clan from acting rashly. He made the greatest contribution to the Human Clan’s survival.

“You punk, you almost deceived me. Who is the Overlord Immortal King? Respected by the Ancient Alien Race, Demon Clan, and Human Clan alike, reigning over the world. This Martial Arts World has birthed many legendary figures and world-governing Emperors, but reaching the Overlord Immortal King realm — he was the only one. You’re impossibly far from it, tens of thousands of miles away. Watch me kill you!” The Ice and Fire Dragon came to its senses, its eyes gathering an impenetrable power, attacking Ye Tianchen.

Boom!

Ye Tianchen shattered, his body completely destroyed, even his skull exploded. The gap in power between him and the Ice and Fire Dragon was immense. The Ice and Fire Dragon, having survived from ancient times, was an inherently powerful Demon Beast, and its race is among the most formidable in the Demon Clan. To say the Ice and Fire Dragon is not strong would be a joke.

“Boss… Ah, my poor boss, you just died like that, died to save me. I’m so moved… Rest assured, when I, Hu Gao, have cultivated for a million years and reached the Emperor Realm, I’ll avenge you and definitely slay this monstrosity!” Hu Gao, still sealed and immobile, shouted, saddened at seeing Ye Tianchen killed in an instant by the Ice and Fire Dragon.

The Ice and Fire Dragon frowned, eyeing the sky filled with Ye Tianchen’s body fragments, not eager to devour his flesh. Despite Ye Tianchen’s combat power being inferior to its own, this young Human Clan practitioner had still impressed it. In its heart, it was certain: if this boy grew up, even if he didn’t reach the Emperor Realm, he would at least become a king of a Star Domain.

“His body shattered, perfect for me to devour and absorb, so my injuries can heal. Once I’m healed, I’ll realize my goal — I’ll destroy Earth, a place I hate!” The Ice and Fire Dragon roared with a ferocious expression.

Despite his recklessness, Hu Gao was brought to reality. Ye Tianchen died saving him, ending in utter destruction. The Ice and Fire Dragon even plans to emerge and annihilate Earth, which would be a disaster. Hu Gao cursed, “You freakish dragon, ugly beast, you say you hate Earth. If you hadn’t hidden in this Cold Pond, you’d be dead long ago. Earth is your father, your mother, and now you want to kill them? Shameful, despicable, filthy, ungrateful…”

“Impudent child, don’t be in such a hurry. After I devour this prodigy’s flesh, I’ll come for you. Even if your flesh is almost useless to me, like waste, it could still serve some purpose.” The Ice and Fire Dragon sneered, opening its mouth to devour Ye Tianchen’s flesh.

“Seriously, how dare you call my body waste? My body is strong and powerful, my skin healthy and dark, my muscles robust and forceful. How can you belittle my body like this? You lived sealed for so long and even if you escape, you’ll be obliterated in an instant!” Hu Gao, out of options, could only shout insults to vent his pain.

Buzz!

Suddenly, the sky trembled, and a golden light shot into the Ice and Fire Dragon’s mouth, causing a spray of blood, piercing right through its mouth. Startled, the Ice and Fire Dragon quickly retreated, leaving Hu Gao stunned.

“This boy…” the Ice and Fire Dragon couldn’t help but say.

“Undying Golden Body—Regeneration Skill!”

Ye Tianchen’s voice echoed throughout the land, as every drop of blood scattered in the sky emitted a golden light. Even the Ice and Fire Dragon was startled, muttering to itself, “The Undying Golden Body Skill, you’ve actually cultivated it to the stage of Great Success. Even in the most devastating world-ending wars, with your flesh completely shattered, as long as there’s one drop of blood left, you can regenerate. This Martial Arts Divine Skill had lost its inheritance long ago. Let me scan your divine thought and obtain it.”

Puff!

A large mass of blistering flames surged from the Ice and Fire Dragon’s brow. When these flames erupted, they were just a small flicker, yet they ignited the entire sky, astonishingly powerful, as if capable of melting heaven and earth!

Hiss!

Hiss!

Hiss!

When the Ice and Fire Dragon spewed out this flame, Ye Tianchen’s flesh and blood scattered in the sky began to burn instantly, almost melting. This was the Ice and Fire Dragon’s counter to Ye Tianchen’s powerful ‘Undying Golden Body Skill,’ an absolute skill intended to melt all his flesh and blood before he could restructure his body, reducing it to nothing. In this way, no matter how formidable Ye Tianchen was, it would be impossible for him to use the ‘Undying Golden Body Skill’ to regenerate.

“Boss…” Hu Gao couldn’t help but shout loudly.

“Hmph, you are indeed powerful, but unfortunately, still not on my level. Even though the Human Clan has found a place to survive in the Martial Arts World, they are still too weak, completely incomparable to the Ancient Alien Race and the Demon Clan!” the Ice and Fire Dragon snorted coldly.

Swish!

Just as Ye Tianchen’s flesh and blood were about to be consumed entirely, a beam of light suddenly shot out from the direction of Sun Never Sets Mountain, instantly dispersing the flames of the Ice and Fire Dragon.

“Hmm?” The Ice and Fire Dragon narrowed its eyes in a ferocious and questioning manner, its eyes, with one side fire and the other ice, reflecting two different lights as it peered towards Sun Never Sets Mountain.

“Oppressing the young prodigies of the Human Clan in every generation suits you well!” an icy voice echoed from within Sun Never Sets Mountain.

“It’s you? Are you still within Sun Never Sets Mountain? You suppressed me back then, today I’ll annihilate you completely…”

The Ice and Fire Dragon seemed to go mad, roaring wildly, and rushed out from the Cold Pond, as if possessed, ignoring Ye Tianchen and Hu Gao entirely, charging directly towards Sun Never Sets Mountain.

Everything calmed down, as the Ice and Fire Dragon charged towards Sun Never Sets Mountain, and as it vanished, the seal on Hu Gao’s body was automatically lifted. It seemed the restriction had a range limit, otherwise Ye Tianchen really couldn’t have lifted the seal on Hu Gao. Ye Tianchen wasn’t dead; using the ultimate secret skill of the Undying Golden Body, he restructured his flesh anew. When he reappeared, he gazed deeply in the direction of Sun Never Sets Mountain, muttering to himself, “On Earth, there exist such hidden powers. How magnificent must this Martial Arts Great World be? I really wish to witness it. I must quickly attain the fragments of the Ancient Transmission Array and find a method for reassembly!” (To be continued.
