Escaping, definitely, he could run away, and he could even come back.

    However, doing so would also make him targeted by Nine-Star Pavilion Master Leng Yue, the veteran transmigrator.

    The most troublesome issue is not Wang Ping’s own safety; he isn’t particularly in danger.

    After all, he has too many ways to escape; even a quasi-immortal can’t capture him.

    The most troublesome issue lies with the forces or individuals associated with Wang Ping like Taiyi Emperor Palace.

    If Wang Ping runs away, these forces and persons related to him will definitely be implicated and utterly destroyed.

    By then, it would truly be Wang Ping’s fault.

    He owes them so much gratitude, yet not only did he fail to repay, he caused them to be annihilated. It’s a grave sin.

    But if he doesn’t run, unless he abandons the Essence Devouring Pearl, Wang Ping couldn’t think of a good solution.

    “It seems I can only abandon the Essence Devouring Pearl…”

    Wang Ping thought again and again, unable to come up with a perfect solution. He couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. The joy of becoming an emperor vanished in an instant.

    He was still too weak, unable to even protect an Essence Devouring Pearl and Taiyi Emperor Palace. He had no right to be proud here.

    “It’s just an Essence Devouring Pearl, nothing much. Once my strength improves further, I will surely reclaim what’s mine.”

    Wang Ping looked into the direction where the Essence Devouring Pearl was undergoing tribulation, eyes gleaming with cold light.

    No matter if it’s the quasi-immortals from the Immortal Palace, the Gu family, or those dark quasi-immortals, Wang Ping will not let any of them off. He will settle accounts with each one.

    Just as Wang Ping’s mind was racing with many thoughts, the tribulation for the Essence Devouring Pearl becoming an immortal artifact had truly begun, affecting the Large Universe.

    Though the tribulation area was just one star domain, the terrifying anomalies and tribulation aura covered most of the Large Universe, making many powerful cultivators feel suffocated.

    At this moment, all the emperors looked towards the Essence Devouring Pearl with gleaming eyes and excited looks.

    Even the quasi-immortals of the Immortal Palace and the Gu family were awakened, staring at the Essence Devouring Pearl, extremely covetous.

    The dark emperors and dark quasi-immortals from the Source of Darkness also began to stir restlessly.

    The entire Upper Realm started to grow chaotic.

    In the Time and Space Forbidden Domain, Nine-Star Pavilion Master Leng Yue looked towards the Essence Devouring Pearl with a calm expression, without the slightest ripple of emotion.

    As if an immortal artifact meant nothing to him.

    A few days later, the Immortal Artifact Tribulation completely passed. The Essence Devouring Pearl, as expected from the Life Simulator, successfully overcame the tribulation, becoming a genuine Immortal Artifact, an event that caused numerous celestial anomalies in the Upper Realm, as if celebrating the birth of this Immortal Artifact.

    At this moment, Wang Ping decisively severed his connection with the Essence Devouring Pearl and set it free.

    However, something unexpected happened.

    Because Wang Ping suddenly cut off the contract and freed it, the Essence Devouring Pearl was somewhat bewildered. Then it got anxious; without any sense of pride, it flew directly towards Wang Ping.

    Following a master with potential like Wang Ping has great prospects.

    As long as it followed Wang Ping, becoming a true immortal artifact wouldn’t be its limit. It might achieve even greater heights.

    Seeing the Essence Devouring Pearl flying towards him at a terrifying speed and arriving before him in no time, Wang Ping’s expression stiffened.

    “Master, I’ve become a true immortal artifact. I’m amazing, right…”

    The Essence Devouring Pearl, not realizing the severity of the situation, proudly radiated immortal light, showing off in front of Wang Ping.

    “You’ve got to be kidding me…”

    Wang Ping, looking at the flaunting Essence Devouring Pearl in front of him, almost spat blood in anger.

    For self-preservation and to protect Taiyi Emperor Palace and all those associated with him, he chose to give it up. Yet, this guy flew back itself, completely clinging to him.

    Such loyalty would undoubtedly be a good thing under normal circumstances, but right now, this behavior has completely ruined his plan.

    Now, the factions and beings related to him are in extreme danger.

    From now on, even if he continues to abandon the Essence Devouring Pearl to show his stance, it’ll be of no use.

    As long as those quasi-immortals know this thing is his, their first thought after seizing it will undoubtedly be to exterminate him.

    Otherwise, would they leave Wang Ping to fully grow and take revenge?

    Besides, his physique and cultivation level probably can’t be concealed anymore.

    In a short time, he has grown this much and obtained a true Chaos Body; what would those old monsters think?

    Wang Ping’s value is definitely higher than the Essence Devouring Pearl, infinitely higher.

    Especially Nine-Star Pavilion Master Leng Yue, the veteran transmigrator, is likely already planning how to deal with him.

    Now, even if Wang Ping acts like an ungrateful bastard, abandons Taiyi Emperor Palace and all who helped him, and runs away, the veteran transmigrator Nine-Star Pavilion Master Leng Yue will likely use all means to hunt him across the multiverse.

    As long as he’s willing to pay the price, he might really find him.

    After all, teleportation surely leaves spatial and temporal fluctuations, and Allheavens Playground must have locating tools.

    Therefore, being exposed to Nine-Star Pavilion Master Leng Yue and other multiverse factions, even if he runs away, he might not be entirely safe.

    Previously, he didn’t have the qualification to make people like Nine-Star Pavilion Master Leng Yue pay such a high price to hunt him down across the multiverse. But now, that might not be the case.

    “You wretched pearl.”

    Wang Ping ground his teeth in anger, wishing he could crush the Essence Devouring Pearl on the spot.

    At the same time, he deeply regretted his choice. Had he known this reward option held such a huge pitfall, he would never have chosen it.

    Ultimately, he was blinded by the allure of the Immortal Artifact and overestimated the upper limit of the capabilities of the unoptimized Life Simulator.

    “Master, how am I a wretched pearl? I am an Immortal Artifact.”

    The Essence Devouring Pearl retorted with some grievance when it heard Wang Ping curse at it.

    Wang Ping fell silent, his face twitching, and could only once again recognize it as his master.

    At this point, nothing could be done. All he could do was think of an escape plan.

    “Alpha, if I consume all my world origins, can I achieve Great Success with my Chaos Body or comprehend the Great Perfection of the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s true meaning?”

    Wang Ping took a deep breath and asked in his heart.

    “Achieving Great Success with your Chaos Body is far beyond the reach of your current world origins. However, comprehending the Great Perfection of the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s true meaning is possible. After all, you’re just lacking a breakthrough opportunity for the Great Perfection of the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s true meaning. Your sentiment from twenty millennia in previous simulations wasn’t wasted… However, it would still exhaust all your current world origins to gain that breakthrough opportunity. Honestly, it’s somewhat wasteful. The correct choice would be to abandon everything and flee immediately.”

    Alpha’s cold voice sounded.

    “I want to flee too but I’m not an ungrateful scoundrel.”

    Wang Ping smiled bitterly.

    “If I can comprehend the Great Perfection of the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s true meaning by consuming world origins, I have confidence in fighting quasi-immortals.”

    After a pause, Wang Ping said in a deep voice.

    Upgrading from ninety percent Chaos Heavenly Dao’s true meaning to Great Perfection is a qualitative leap.

    Especially since the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s true meaning is much stronger than other dao’s true meanings, the leap to Great Perfection brings a terrifying increase in combat power.

    At that time, Wang Ping would truly have confidence in fighting a quasi-immortal. If paired with the Essence Devouring Pearl, Wang Ping believed he could kill a quasi-immortal with his own strength.

    By then, he would no longer be a fish on the chopping block but a fierce predator. Anyone trying to snatch the Essence Devouring Pearl from him should be prepared to be counter-killed.

    As long as he showcased enough strength to intimidate these old monsters and had the ability to escape anytime, who would dare recklessly attack forces or beings related to him?

    Just as Wang Ping and Alpha were conversing, numerous Emperors and quasi-immortals looked towards Taiyi Emperor Palace, focusing on You.

    However, all the Emperors were very wary of Wang Ping and did not act rashly.

    After all, the strength you exhibited previously was immense, and you were suspected to be under the protection of Nine-Star Pavilion Master Leng Yue. If they attacked you, their own situations would become very perilous.

    Moreover, the Emperors had to admit one thing: even if they could defeat you and seize the Immortal Artifact, could they survive against invincible powerhouses like Nine-Star Pavilion Master Leng Yue who surpassed the Emperor level?

    With such a powerhouse present, they didn’t believe Leng Yue was the only one in the world who surpassed the Emperor level.

    Going forward, they planned to be mere observers, hoping to benefit opportunistically. Taking action would be courting death.

    As for the quasi-immortals from Immortal Palace and Gu family, they furrowed their brows, deeply astonished.

    As quasi-immortals, they differed from the Emperors and saw your cultivation changes clearly.

    Although they didn’t recognize your Chaos Body, your cultivation changes were shocking enough.

    After all, in such a short time, your cultivation had soared from the quasi-emperor’s Great Perfection directly to the Emperor’s Great Perfection. Such absurd cultivation speed left even them at a loss for words.

    You should know that these two quasi-immortals had spent over a million years to progress from the quasi-emperor’s Great Perfection to the Emperor’s Great Perfection.

    And you achieved it in less than a year. Such a gap couldn’t be described merely as exceptional talent.

    In the words of those extraterrestrial visitors, you were practically cheating.

    “Has an era passed, and have cultivators become so timid that they do not dare to seize an Immortal Artifact right before them?”

    While everyone harbored different thoughts, a cold voice came from the Source of Darkness.

    Subsequently, a figure emerged from the Source of Darkness.

    The figure’s pressure was immensely strong, his cultivation had reached the Emperor’s Great Perfection.

    Quickly, an Emperor recognized his identity.

    This figure was the Void Prison Emperor who had fallen into the Source of Darkness millions of years ago.

    This surprised the Emperors and current quasi-immortals.

    Though the Void Prison Emperor was powerful, in front of quasi-immortals who surpassed Emperors, he was insignificant and weak.

    But the Void Prison Emperor dared to mock Wang Ping and attempt to seize the Essence Devouring Pearl, implying his actions had a deeper meaning.

    This meant there was likely a quasi-immortal backing the Void Prison Emperor, probably a dark quasi-immortal urging him to act.

    Otherwise, he wouldn’t dare attempt to test Wang Ping and seize the Immortal Artifact at such a critical moment.

    After all, at this stage, no one was foolish; everyone understood the consequence of drawing unwanted attention.

    “Void Prison Emperor? His rank on the stele is not even above Void Profound Emperor’s. Just an ant.”

    Wang Ping ignored the Void Profound Emperor, speaking indifferently…

    As these words were spoken, the expressions of the other Emperors became strange…

    When did Wang Ping become so dismissive of Emperors? Not only did he dare to use the Void Profound Emperor as a unit of measurement for combat power, but he also mocked the Heavenly Prison Emperor for being inferior to the Void Profound Emperor…

    They admitted that Wang Ping was very strong, but his combat strength was still far from the top Emperors, let alone the level of an Emperor Lord…

    Although Wang Ping had now obtained an Immortal Artifact, which had undoubtedly boosted his combat power greatly, how much power could he exert from the artifact without having become an Emperor himself?
    With only a quasi-emperor cultivation level, even with the help of an Immortal Artifact, it would be very difficult to contend with an Emperor Lord…

    Because of this, they couldn’t understand Wang Ping’s extremely arrogant statement…

    Or maybe, Wang Ping was bluffing, pretending to be strong, and trying to intimidate powerful enemies with the name of the Nine-Star Pavilion Master…

    Just as the Emperors had their own thoughts, the expression of the Heavenly Prison Emperor also turned extremely cold, filled with killing intent. He spoke icily: ‘Very well, you are the first to dare to look down on this Emperor so much. In that case, you shall fall here.’

    With these words, the Heavenly Prison Emperor unleashed a Divine Ability, countless black chains appeared out of thin air, seemingly possessing the power to imprison everything…

    At the same time, a terrifying phantom of a prison appeared, seemingly containing hellish scenes…

    Seeing this, the expressions of all the Emperors became serious and wary…

    As an Emperor Lord, the Heavenly Prison Emperor’s combat strength was truly formidable. If the Emperors faced an Emperor Lord, they believed they would undoubtedly die, unable to withstand this strike…

    However, facing this terrifying Divine Ability, Wang Ping remained unmoved, calm and collected, stepping forward to shatter the Heavenly Prison Emperor’s Divine Ability…

    Just as Wang Ping was about to act, countless silver feathers appeared out of thin air, and the silhouette of Emperor Tianyu appeared in the starry sky, intending to take this strike on Wang Ping’s behalf…

    ‘Courting death.’

    Seeing this, the Heavenly Prison Emperor sneered, thinking that Emperor Tianyu was overestimating his abilities…

    The gap between a top-level emperor and an Emperor Lord was immense, and the result of Emperor Tianyu taking this strike would be his fall…

    Even if he survived by luck, he would be in a near-death state, his essence damaged, difficult to recover…

    ‘Senior Tianyu, it’s just an Emperor Lord, no need for you to act. I can handle it myself.’

    Seeing Emperor Tianyu suddenly appear, intending to take this strike for him, Wang Ping was touched, then smiled as he said this…

    As he spoke, Wang Ping no longer hid any of his strength, revealing his cultivation at the level of Great Perfection of the emperor realm…

    Simultaneously, ninety percent of the true meaning of Chaos Heavenly Dao was fully unleashed…

    Then, Wang Ping threw a punch, the Chaos Emperor Fist stirring up endless chaos energy, fiercely striking towards the Heavenly Prison…

    ‘Crack!’

    In an instant, the Heavenly Prison shattered, and Wang Ping’s Chaos Emperor Fist continued inexorably towards the Heavenly Prison Emperor…

    This left the Heavenly Prison Emperor’s face dramatically changing, never expecting Wang Ping to have the Great Perfection of the emperor realm cultivation and comprehending ninety percent of the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s true meaning…

    Such power completely surpassed him, and he sensed an imminent death…

    For this, the Heavenly Prison Emperor shouted: ‘Immortal Lord, save me!’

    However, his cry for help received no response, no one from the Source of Darkness came to his aid…

    ‘This Emperor is unwilling!’

    Seeing this, the Heavenly Prison Emperor’s face became fierce, trying to resist Wang Ping’s Chaos Emperor Fist with his own strength, but Wang Ping’s Chaos Emperor Fist was clearly beyond his capability to block…

    Thus, the Heavenly Prison Emperor was directly blasted apart by Wang Ping in a single punch, completely perishing…

    Seeing this scene, the Emperors fell silent, unable to believe Wang Ping had become this abnormal…

    Not only had his cultivation level skyrocketed to the Great Perfection of the emperor realm in a very short time, but he also defeated the Heavenly Prison Emperor in a single punch with ease, like crushing an ant…

    Such combat power, such feats, were truly too outrageous…

    For a moment, all the Emperors felt like frogs in a well, unable to understand this fantastical world…

    ‘Wang Ping, you…’

    Emperor Tianyu also stared blankly at Wang Ping, completely stunned…

    He had just returned from the Ghost Demon Sea shortly after discovering the celestial phenomenon in the Large Universe, and had witnessed Wang Ping being attacked…

    Therefore, he decided to intervene…

    He had not expected Wang Ping’s current strength to be so abnormal…

    ‘Devouring Body, terrifying… This kind of physique, could it really be born in this world? Or is it from the multiverse… No, it must come from the multiverse. Two hundred billion jin of top-grade divine sources, absorbed by Wang Ping, turned him into this powerful.’

    Emperor Tianyu came to his senses, thinking of the Devouring Body, more shocked and his eyes burning with desire…

    With Wang Ping, how could Taiyi Emperor Palace worry about not reaching the Immortal Domain…

    ‘Ninety percent of the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s true meaning… Truly terrifying. His power has completely surpassed the Emperor Lord’s, but he is still far from being a quasi-immortal. Even with the help of an Immortal Artifact, he is not my match and will be easily suppressed by me.’

    ‘Since his bottom was probed, there’s no need for scruples anymore.’

    Compared to the shock of the Emperors, the quasi-immortal hidden in the Source of Darkness was surprised but also felt reassured more than anything…

    For this reason, the dark quasi-immortals chose to emerge.

    In an instant, ten dark quasi-immortals appeared, and their overwhelming pressure swept across the Large Universe. Terrifying anomalous phenomena emerged one after another, causing all cultivators to be terrified to the extreme. Even great emperors were filled with dread.

    As for the quasi-immortals of the Immortal Palace and the Gu family, after recovering from the shock caused by Wang Ping, they fell silent, hesitating whether to make their appearance.

    On Wang Ping’s side, facing ten dark quasi-immortals, his expression remained unchanged, but his heart was extremely heavy.

    He knew clearly that if there was even a slight mistake, he could escape, but the Taiyi Emperor Palace and other forces would be doomed.

    “Alpha, consume all my world origins and let me comprehend the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Dao’s true meaning.”

    Wang Ping took a deep breath and silently said in his heart.

    “Ding, consuming all world origins, you have entered an ethereal state, and your comprehension has rapidly increased in a short period of time.”

    The voice of the System sounded.

    Then, Wang Ping felt himself entering a wonderful state. What was previously difficult to comprehend could now be easily understood, as if it had come naturally.

    This feeling was very marvelous, allowing Wang Ping to easily comprehend the Great Perfection of the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s true meaning.

    Although this was based on Wang Ping’s already sufficient foundation, it still showed how powerful this state was.

    “Is this what it feels like to pay to win? It truly is a delightful experience…”

    Soon, Wang Ping exited this ethereal state, but he was not regretful, only somewhat sentimental.

    Previously, he had always been reluctant to use world origins, but now he had indulged.

    However, it was considered a good use of resources when most needed. Frankly speaking, it was worth it!

    “Hand over the Immortal Artifact. This is not something an emperor can covet.”

    As Wang Ping was filled with emotions, the ten dark quasi-immortals confronted each other, but one of them looked down at Wang Ping and said arrogantly.

    “Covet? This is inherently mine, how can it be called coveting? On the contrary, for survival, you chose to fall into darkness, disgracing your title as quasi-immortals. Now, you speak of robbery so grandly, it is truly laughable.”

    Wang Ping looked at the dark quasi-immortal who spoke and mocked.

    These words caused the dark quasi-immortal to frown, and his eyes were filled with killing intent.

    Meanwhile, the great emperors of the Upper Realm, the quasi-immortals of the Gu family, and the quasi-immortals of the Immortal Palace were all amazed at Wang Ping’s toughness.

    This was in the face of quasi-immortals, and yet Wang Ping could still be so domineering and forceful, completely disregarding the quasi-immortals. Such boldness was truly admirable.

    “Hehe, Immortal Lord, he killed your subordinate and mocks you like this, can you still tolerate it?”

    At this moment, another quasi-immortal spoke, mocking the dark quasi-immortal who had spoken earlier, clearly trying to provoke the Immortal Lord to act and kill Wang Ping.

    The Immortal Lord frowned but still showed no intention of acting.

    “I see, so you are the Immortal Lord? The master of the Emperor of Hell. However, a quasi-immortal who can’t even protect his own subordinates dares to call himself the Immortal Lord, it’s truly laughable.”

    Wang Ping looked at the Immortal Lord and mocked.

    Since these dark quasi-immortals all had their own motives and didn’t want to be the first to act, Wang Ping could only provoke one into action.

    Otherwise, if these quasi-immortals chose to act together and first kill him, the holder of the Immortal Artifact, it would be truly troublesome.

    Even if Wang Ping was strong, it was impossible for him to battle ten dark quasi-immortals at once and win.

    “Youngster, you are too arrogant!”

    The Immortal Lord’s expression became extremely grim. Even he couldn’t endure such extreme mocking from Wang Ping.

    If their combat strength were equal, it would be okay to confront each other. However, he was much stronger than Wang Ping, and Wang Ping dared to mock him in front of so many quasi-immortals. This truly embarrassed him.

    Because of this, the furious Immortal Lord directly attacked Wang Ping, throwing a casual punch.

    This punch didn’t use any Divine Abilities; it was just a casual strike.

    However, this casual strike was enough to easily kill an emperor-level figure.

    Clearly, the Immortal Lord wanted to use this casual strike to kill Wang Ping and maintain his quasi-immortal dignity.

    “Heh, a casual strike? How arrogant. Immortal Lord, do you know that the last quasi-immortal who tried to kill me in this way is already dead?”

    Wang Ping sneered, not taking the Immortal Lord’s attack seriously.

    Then, Wang Ping no longer held back and directly revealed the Small Success of Chaos Body.

    As the Small Success of Chaos Body appeared, chaotic anomalies emerged, suppressing the phenomena caused by the emergence of the quasi-immortals, shocking everyone.

    The quasi-immortals present all had slight changes in their expressions, very surprised.

    After all, they hadn’t realized before that Wang Ping possessed the legendary Chaos Body, and it had clearly reached the Small Success domain.

    Only the Nine-Star Pavilion Master Leng Yue remained calm, showing no sign of surprise. He quietly watched from afar, staring at Wang Ping, not knowing what he was thinking.

    At this moment, after Wang Ping used the Small Success of Chaos Body, he launched the Chaos Emperor Fist again, blocking the Immortal Lord’s strike.

    “Immortal Lord, if this is all you’ve got, then you shall be the first quasi-immortal to die by my hand!”

    After blocking the Immortal Lord’s strike, Wang Ping shouted loudly and, under the astonished gazes of the crowd, actively charged towards the Immortal Lord.

    “So what if you have achieved the Small Chaos Body… Today, I will let you understand the vast difference between an Emperor and a quasi-immortal!”

    The Immortal Lord’s face turned grim. With a cold snort, he no longer held back. Unleashing his full strength, he displayed terrifying divine abilities. Immortal Light filled the sky, transforming into a swarm of terrifyingly powerful rare beasts, rushing toward Wang Ping to shred him completely.

    “Chaos Emperor Fist!”

    Facing these strange beasts, Wang Ping chose to strike. The Chaos Emperor Fist exploded with terrifying power, shattering many of the beasts.

    However, after these beasts were shattered, they reassembled again, as if possessing an immortal body, continuing to lunge toward Wang Ping.

    “It’s useless. Although you are strong, relying solely on your current strength to oppose me is still insufficient.”

    The Immortal Lord clasped his hands together, summoning even more beasts, and sneered.

    “Ninety percent of the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s True Meaning isn’t working… Then, what about the Great Perfection of the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s True Meaning?”

    With a cold expression, Wang Ping yelled and directly used the Great Perfection of the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s True Meaning. The Chaos Emperor Fist struck again, obliterating numerous beasts, truly showcasing his quasi-immortal combat power.

    This time, those beasts did not regenerate and were completely annihilated.

    Evidently, Wang Ping’s attack had surpassed the beasts’ damage threshold.

    “What!?”

    Upon seeing this, both the Immortal Lord and other quasi-immortals were shocked, their expressions changing drastically.

    None of them had anticipated that Wang Ping had already comprehended the Great Perfection of the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s True Meaning, displaying quasi-immortal combat power.

    With the cultivation at the Great Perfection of the Emperor realm, exerting quasi-immortal combat power was incredibly terrifying.

    After all, the higher one climbs in cultivation, the harder it is to surpass a level.

    Instances like an Emperor battling a quasi-immortal had only occurred during the most illustrious eras of the Upper Realm.

    Even in those ages, as recorded, only one or two monsters had accomplished such feats.

    In other words, Wang Ping’s current achievements had reached that level and might even surpass those few.

    Wang Ping had the qualifications to claim the title of the greatest across all ages.

    “I truly underestimated you.”

    The Immortal Lord’s face turned exceedingly unpleasant, and he spoke in a deep tone.

    Now, he somewhat regretted being the first to have an Emperor test Wang Ping’s strength.

    After all, who could have expected Wang Ping to be so monstrous?

    “However, do not think that just because you’ve touched the quasi-immortal combat power, you can oppose me. Quasi-immortals are not so easily defeated.”

    Subsequently, the Immortal Lord calmed his emotions, sneered coldly, and summoned even more beasts.

    Then, as he combined his hands, the beasts formed a mysterious connection centered around the Immortal Lord.

    “All Beasts Immortal Formation, activate! Ten Thousand Immortal Beasts, emerge!”

    The Immortal Lord shouted, and a beast exuding an immortal aura appeared before everyone.

    It was a beast with a tiger’s head, a snake’s tail, and phoenix wings.

    Though its appearance was odd, its power fluctuation was terrifying, causing all the quasi-immortals present to wear grave expressions.

    The Immortal Lord’s title was derived from his mastery of the Way of Ten Thousand Beasts, capable of summoning and controlling countless beasts.

    Now, his mastery had reached such a degree that people could mistake him for having summoned a genuine immortal beast.

    Although this beast, with an immortal aura, was far from a true immortal beast, its power was formidable enough to trouble an ordinary quasi-immortal.

    Not to mention, the presence of the Immortal Lord could not be ignored. Despite his mediocre combat power on his own, paired with the Ten Thousand Immortal Beast, he posed a significant threat to their enemies.

    “You picked the wrong opponent if you plan to use me as an example.”

    The Immortal Lord rode on the Ten Thousand Immortal Beast, sneering.

    Based on Wang Ping’s display, his prior actions were understandable, clearly intending to provoke the Immortal Lord and make an example of him.

    If Wang Ping had decisively slain the Immortal Lord, it would indeed make others wary of competing for the Immortal Artifact.

    “Picked the wrong opponent? No, I don’t care who it is. You just happen to be an eyesore, so you must die here.”

    Wang Ping’s robe fluttered, his expression cold. Despite the terrifying beast summoned by the Immortal Lord, he showed no trace of fear.

    Through the previous battle, Wang Ping had already realized his true power after comprehending the Great Perfection of the Chaos Heavenly Dao’s True Meaning.

    Now, he could battle a quasi-immortal head-on. With his talent’s enhancement, he was undoubtedly stronger than an ordinary quasi-immortal.

    Perhaps, only when facing a quasi-immortal like the Nine-Star Pavilion Master Leng Yue, who was a senior transmigrator, might he suffer a great loss.

    “Boy, your repeated contempt for me is unbelievably arrogant. Since that’s the case, I will shred your body and burn your soul for a million years.”

    The Immortal Lord roared in fury, riding the Immortal Beast and charging at Wang Ping.

    In response, Wang Ping snorted coldly and activated his Golden Talent: Multiple Symphony and seven-colored talent: Explosive Blade. Then, he unleashed the Chaos Emperor Fist.

    Luck seemed to favor Wang Ping, as this time, he triggered a ninefold critical hit effect!
