Chapter 523: Elder-Immortal
It was that critical moment in which Yang Qi was using his energy arts to link his nascent divinity with the Chiliocosm Mirror itself. Unfortunately, it was a moment of extreme weakness for him in which he could suffer dismal failure.
And it was also when a beam of divine light appeared, accompanied by laughter that filled all of heaven and earth.
"So, someone is trying to take the Chiliocosm Mirror? Who might it be? You pieces of trash have been here for months, but don't have a thing to show for it. I've been watching you, just waiting for the right moment to strike and enslave the lot of you. Who would have guessed that you would actually succeed with the mirror? Well, whoever’s inside is about to be transformed into the mirror's spirit automaton and remain in there for all eternity."
An old man appeared overhead, clad in black clothing and holding a steel pitchfork. He had a long, narrow face with square pupils in his eyes, and from the way he moved it seemed like he might be capable of passing in and out of various aspects of space-time, making it impossible to lock on to his aura.
"Elder-Immortal Hyperfiend," Eldest Brother said, flying up into the air and clenching his hands into fists. "Sun Moon God Art: Cyclical Grand Brightness!"
Eldest Brother knew that this was one of the most powerful entities to have ever been trapped in the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart. He was Elder-Immortal Hyperfiend, a person who could destroy worlds and create planes, an expert whose magical laws of the dao of immortals would make him invincible in the mortal world.
He had benefited greatly over his years in the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart. For example, his weapon was a devil item that had supposedly been forged by an actual devil-god in hell. It was called the Myriad Fiends Pitchfork, and was equivalent to an immortal item from an immortal world.
King Immortal-Slayer and his sworn siblings hadn’t created the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart just to fight the legion of gods. They had also waged war on the fiend-devils of hell, and the Myriad Fiends Pitchfork had been used to slaughter even preeminent devil dictators. The devil dictators of hell were similar to immortals: powerful entities in the Demolishing level who could create immortal items.
Elder-Immortal Hyperfiend was an evil person who cultivated both wicked and righteous energy arts. After acquiring the Myriad Fiends Pitchfork he became stronger than ever, to the point where he could dominate all heaven and earth. Now here he was, hoping to break through the line of defense, defeat Yang Qi, and take the Chiliocosm Mirror.
"You scum think you can stop me? Before I got trapped in the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart, I was a powerful immortal who slaughtered people wantonly in the immortal worlds. In fact, I came here to hide so that I wouldn’t be tracked down and held accountable for my crimes! You people who haven’t ascended, and have no magical laws from the immortal worlds, are essentially trash. I can hardly think of a funnier joke in the world than the idea of you trying to fight me."
With that, Elder-Immortal Hyperfiend lunged forward and stabbed his Myriad Fiends Pitchfork toward the spell formation, causing a deafening rumbling sound to echo out.
Eldest Brother was sent staggering backward as a result.
"Dammit! Why did this old monster have to show up? An immortal?" Not pausing for a moment, Eldest Brother shot back up into the air and unleashed a fist strike, sending beams of godlight rocketing upward to meet the Myriad Fiends Pitchfork.
