Chapter 787 The Ancient Covenant!
The Immortal Palace Supreme was surrounded by Zhu Chen, Yang Qi, and the other two, finding himself in a dilemma.
His face was extremely gloomy at this moment, and his eyes were full of anger and resentment.
He never imagined that he, the supreme being of the Immortal Palace, standing at the very top of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, would be forced to this point by three juniors.
"Do you really intend to fight the Immortal Palace to the death?"
The Celestial Palace Supreme looked at Zhu Chen and spoke in a cold tone.
Zhu Chen smiled and said, "Sorry, but from the moment you killed the Peacock God, we have been sworn enemies. Isn't it ridiculous for you to say these things now?"
He was about to take action when a deep, muffled bell suddenly rang out from the sky.
"--clang!!!"
The bell's sound was deep and resonant, as if it came from eternity ago, piercing through time and space, and resounding deep within the soul of every person.
Everyone's eyes turned in the direction from which the bell rang.
In sight, a huge bronze bell suddenly descended from the sky, its radiance filling the heavens, like a bright moon falling to earth, enveloping the entire world in a soft silver light.
"—Whoa!!!"
As the bronze bell fell, the silver light enveloped the body of the Celestial Palace Supreme.
After being enveloped by the bronze bell, the Supreme Being of the Immortal Palace immediately relaxed, and a hint of relief at surviving a calamity flashed in his eyes.
On the bronze bell, a figure sat cross-legged.
It was an old man dressed in a black robe, with a withered face, like an old monk in meditation, surrounded by a faint aura of immortality, his aura unfathomable, as if he had been asleep for countless years.
But his appearance made everyone feel a strong pressure, as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on their hearts.
"That's... a remnant immortal from the Celestial Palace? Didn't he leave? Why is he back?"
"He's probably here for Zhu Chen..."
"This remnant immortal of the Immortal Palace is a survivor from the Immortal Ancient Era. Could it be that he intends to kill Zhu Chen here?"
"Zhu Chen and the others are in danger now. When a Remnant Immortal makes a move, even a Supreme-level figure would find it difficult to withstand him."
Qin Changsheng's face turned extremely ugly as he listened to the conversation of the cult leaders around him.
He thought that Zhu Chen and the other two had already secured victory in their siege of the Immortal Palace Supreme, but he never expected that the Remnant Immortal would appear at this moment.
Qin Changsheng hesitated for a moment, wanting to remind Zhu Chen, but found that he didn't even have the strength to speak.
The oppressive aura emanating from the remnant immortal made it incredibly difficult for him to even breathe.
"—Whoosh!!!"
However, at the same time that the remnant immortal appeared, the void opposite him suddenly began to distort violently.
Then, a giant eye appeared out of thin air, suspended in mid-air, like the pupil of a god, looking down over the entire earth.
"Those are eyes with double pupils!"
"Double pupils? Could it be that the legendary woman with double pupils has arrived?"
"Didn't she just leave? Why is she back?"
"It's probably because of the remnant immortal..."
"That's right, this woman with double pupils has a good relationship with Zhu Chen. Now that even the remnant immortals from the Immortal Palace have arrived, he's going to come and save the day too!"
Amidst the murmurs of the crowd, a figure of unparalleled elegance suddenly emerged from the double pupils of the eyes.
This person was none other than the woman with double pupils.
The woman with double pupils walked to the opposite side of the remnant immortal, stood with her hands behind her back, and began to confront him.
Although her cultivation level was not as high as that of the Remnant Immortal, with the blessing of the Ancient Double Pupil, her aura was now able to rival that of the Remnant Immortal.
The two stood dozens of feet apart, their eyes locked, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense. "Double-pupiled maiden, this matter is a feud between my Immortal Palace and Zhu Chen. I hope you will not interfere."
The immortal slowly opened his eyes, his gaze falling on the woman with double pupils, as if he had known all along that she was nearby.
The woman with double pupils looked at him, the corners of her mouth slightly upturned, revealing a half-smile: "What if I say no?"
The immortal did not speak, but slowly stretched out his hand and gently pointed forward.
"--boom!!!"
Suddenly, the bronze bell beneath him emitted a violent tremor.
The sound waves spread out and transformed into terrifying ripples, directly rushing towards the woman with double pupils.
The woman with double pupils remained expressionless, but her double pupils suddenly lit up, and two golden beams shot out from her eyes, directly meeting the ripple.
The beam of light collided with the ripples, bursting out with dazzling light.
The surrounding sect leaders all retreated, and even Qin Changsheng couldn't help but retreat a hundred feet away, fearing that he would be caught in the crossfire.
As the ripples subsided, the woman with double pupils swayed slightly and took two steps back.
Her face remained calm, but a fine bead of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Seeing this, the remnant immortal immediately said disdainfully, "Although your double pupils are powerful, your cultivation is not enough... You cannot stop me."
The woman with double pupils wiped the sweat from her forehead, a smile still playing on her lips: "Whether it can be blocked or not, we'll only know after we fight."
The remnant immortal did not speak again, but the bronze bell beneath him emitted a deep hum once more, ready to strike at any moment.
Zhu Chen looked at the woman with double pupils, a complex expression flashing in his eyes.
He hadn't expected that the woman with double pupils would return at this moment, and even block the remnant immortal for him.
"Woman with double pupils, what are you doing back here?"
Zhu Chen looked at the woman with double pupils and asked, "Could it be that you care about me? Don't want to see me get into trouble?"
The woman with double pupils said without turning her head, "Stop talking nonsense and do what you're supposed to do... Leave this to me."
"it is good."
Zhu Chen was silent for a moment, then nodded vigorously.
He turned back to look at the Celestial Palace Supreme, raising his battle halberd once more: "Your helpers are too busy to help you right now..."
The Celestial Palace Supreme had just breathed a sigh of relief, but now, seeing Zhu Chen approaching again, his expression turned grim once more.
"Supreme Lord of the Immortal Palace, your death is imminent."
Without saying a word, Zhu Chen swung his halberd and thrust it out.
Seeing this, the immortal beings and oxygen also joined in the effort.
Faced with the combined attack of the three, the Celestial Palace Supreme could only grit his teeth and fight back with all his might.
However, under the combined suppression of Yang Qi and the immortal beings, he no longer had much power to resist.
Seeing this, the remnant immortal's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he wanted to intervene, but the woman with double pupils had already blocked his way again: "Your opponent is me..."
The immortal looked at her, remained silent for a moment, and finally slowly withdrew his hand.
He did not choose to take action again.
Because he knew that with the woman with double pupils around, he couldn't help the Supreme Being of the Immortal Palace in a short time.
However, he had other ways to save his old subordinate.
He took a deep breath and then looked at Zhu Chen, saying, "Supreme-level cultivators are the highest beings in the divine realm. Now, the alien realm is eyeing the Imperial Pass covetously outside. The ancient covenant must continue to be upheld. If you kill the Immortal Palace Supreme here, causing the Imperial Pass to fall, then you will surely become a sinner in the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!"
