The three True Immortals, Blood Tooth, Ghostly Mist, and Blood Vortex, attempted to flee after realizing Jiang Fan's strength. Jiang Fan, however, unleashed the Human Emperor Sword's fifth ability, "Emperor's Judgment," a devastating technique that ignored all defenses and targeted the soul and origin. The Void Realm itself seemed to freeze as the attack descended, leaving the True Immortals powerless to resist.

The Judgment Light pierced his physical body, stabbing directly at the source of his Divine Soul. Blood Tooth Daoist’s soul let out an exceedingly piercing scream, but it was confined by the frozen space-time, unable to produce the slightest sound.

In just an instant, his soul was completely annihilated by the Judgment Light, leaving not even a single fragment of his shattered soul. His massive body, deprived of the support of his soul, began to rapidly wither, disintegrate, and ultimately turn into flying ash, purified by the golden light, dissipating into the heavens and earth.

Immediately following, two beams of Judgment Light burst forth simultaneously, shooting towards Ghostly Mist Daoist and Blood Vortex Daoist.

In the face of the Judgment Light, the ghostly mist surrounding Ghostly Mist Daoist was instantly purified completely. His body began to turn transparent as his soul was forcibly stripped from his body, emitting a silent wail under the burning of the golden light, extinguishing in an instant;

Blood Vortex Daoist’s body was penetrated by the Judgment Light, the evil power within instantly collapsed, and at the moment his soul was annihilated, the greed and ferocity in his eyes completely faded away, leaving only endless fear. Ultimately, his body and soul were both devoured and purified by the Judgment Light, leaving no trace behind.

The entire process lasted only a few brief moments.

When the last trace of evil aura was purified by the golden light, the stagnant space-time finally slowly revived. The fierce winds rose again, but without a trace of evil presence. The screams of the vengeful souls completely disappeared, and the demonic qi in the heavens and earth was cleared away. The azure spiritual light once again erupted from the source of the Void Realm, slowly enveloping the heavens and earth.

"Indeed, they are dead."

At this moment, Jiang Fan held the Human Emperor Sword, feeling his body infused with incredibly powerful energy.

It seemed as if he had already become a True Immortal.

With the augmentation of the Void Realm’s Heavenly Dao power, he truly felt invincible.

Even having unleashed such a terrible attack, he felt that his primordial magical power had not been much depleted.

Even if more True Immortals from the Ascension Immortal Realm were to come, he could still fight them.

"But they are True Immortals cultivating the Path of Greed."

"With their deaths, the power of the Path of Greed is slightly weakened."

Jiang Fan’s eyes gleamed with insight.

Now he finally understood how powerful the Immortal Race truly was.

The Immortal Race in the Immortal Realm consists of the Ten Longevity Clans, representing the ten great races of the Immortal Realm.

Or perhaps, the ten great Dao paths of the Immortal Realm.

The so-called Greed Race are Immortals who cultivate the Path of Greed; gathered together, they form the Greed Race.

These ten Dao paths span across the Immortal Realm, forming the Ten Longevity Clans.

The battle in the Ancient Era established the position of the Immortal Race, crushing other Dao paths.

Thus, the power of the Immortal Race increased geometrically.

Even with three True Immortals dead, it’s but a drop in the bucket for the Path of Greed.

But if this weakening continues bit by bit, perhaps eventually the power of the Path of Greed could truly be diminished.

"However, the Dao paths are actually mutually exclusive."

"This means there are internal conflicts within the Ten Longevity Clans."

"They cooperate but also compete with each other."

"That’s why these three True Immortals are from the Greed Race, not from the other Immortal Races."

"After all, everyone wants to become the sole Dao of this universe."

"If someone could achieve this, they could wholly control the entire universe."

Jiang Fan’s eyes sparkled.

After fighting these three True Immortals, he felt he understood more of the mysteries of Immortals.

No matter how much is said, there’s nothing like experiencing a battle firsthand.

"My heavens, to have killed three True Immortals from the Ascension Immortal Realm just like that."

"And they were True Immortals of the Immortal Race; it’s simply unbelievable."

"I remember, back in the day, to besiege a single True Immortal, who knows how many Mahayana cultivators had to die."

"But now, the master slays three True Immortals with just a few swings."

"It was as simple as chopping vegetables, truly too powerful."

The Demon-Vibrating Bell was dumbstruck, feeling very shocked at the sight before it.

It had now recovered its old memories, remembering scenes from the Ancient Era.

Back then, it was the magical treasure of the Nine Heavens Demon-Vanquishing Sect, fighting alongside many cultivators.

Not knowing how many demons it had slain in the past.

But it was severely injured while besieging a True Immortal from the Ascension Immortal Realm with other Mahayana cultivators.

In the end, that True Immortal unleashed terrifying Immortal Techniques, causing severe damage to itself, nearly splitting it into pieces.

A group of besieging Mahayana cultivators died in uncountable numbers.

Eventually, even the Nine Heavens Demon-Vanquishing Sect was wiped out.

Because of this, it lost many memories from the Ancient Era.

Who could have thought that such terrifying True Immortals from the Ascension Immortal Realm could be so easily slain by the current master.

And to have killed three at once.

If it had been during the Ancient Era, the cost would have been countless deaths of Mahayana cultivators to achieve success.

"It’s merely relying on the Human Emperor Sword and the power of the Void Realm’s source."

"This is nothing at all."

Jiang Fan chuckled, speaking very humbly.

He felt that he relied on external power to slay three True Immortals at the peak of their cultivation.

If it were actual strength, he might not have been able to achieve this.

"The master is truly too humble; such things are not so easily accomplished."

"I have seen many Celestial Mandate Children of the Void Realm before."

"But never have I seen anyone as powerful as the master."

"After all, to truly unleash the power of the Human Emperor Sword and activate the enormous source of the Void Realm isn’t something that can be done casually. Ordinary Mahayana cultivators couldn’t utilize even one ten-thousandth of the power."

The Human Emperor Sword spoke.

It knew best the legacy of peerless geniuses in the Void Realm.

Indeed, this time slaying three True Immortals, the power of the Void Realm’s Heavenly Dao was borrowed.

But ordinary cultivators, even with the support of Heavenly Dao power, couldn’t achieve such effortless mastery.

Because ordinary Mahayana cultivators simply couldn’t handle such terrifying power.

Even if they could handle it, they couldn’t utilize it with such ease.

Because regardless of the strength of the power, no matter how powerful the Immortal Artifact, it requires a cultivator to wield it.

Even if one’s weapon is a peerless treasure sword, the difference between its use by a child and a mighty general is like heavens and earth.

"So, does that mean the master, in the Void Realm, is an undefeatable existence?"

"Even if more True Immortals from the Immortal Realm descend, there is nothing to fear."

The Ten Thousand Transformations Immortal Cauldron spoke excitedly.

It was earlier terrified by these True Immortals, for their power was truly horrifying.

A single Immortal Technique could destroy an entire Great Thousand World, almost unbeatable.

But against the power of its master, they were still unequal, causing it to feel safe and secure.

"If always staying in the Mortal World, indeed, not much would need to be worried about."

"But in the Mortal World, there’s no chance to advance as a True Immortal."

"Ultimately, one would just die when life is exhausted, so ascending to the Immortal Realm is necessary."

"Otherwise, death is just a matter of time."

The Primordial Talisman Pen spoke solemnly.

It believed Jiang Fan couldn’t always remain in the Void Realm, and would eventually ascend to the Immortal Realm.

This is the destiny of the counterpart.

After all, staying in the Mortal World is merely slow death.

Bang~~

At this time, a message instantly entered deep within Jiang Fan’s sea of consciousness: "You encountered three True Immortals of the Greed Race and after desperate fighting, finally killed them. You’ve successfully passed a Life-and-Death Tribulation and gained a First-Grade Opportunity and three billion Luck Points."

Perceiving this message, Jiang Fan couldn’t help but smile slightly.

Finally, he had overcome this calamity.

He hadn’t expected that after slaying three True Immortals, he would acquire so many Luck Points.

Previously, after saving the Void Realm, he hadn’t received so much fortune.

This sufficiently proves the terrifying degree of the three Greed Race True Immortals.

If they weren’t slain, allowing them to do as they wish in the Mortal World, who knows what extent of slaughter would be caused and how much death and injury incurred.

In a way, he also saved countless living beings in the Mortal World.
