Chapter 23: True and Fake

Demon race, you dare to betray the six paths with the human race; do you know what the consequences will be?

The Flow of Water grasped the whisk and launched an assault, tearing apart the void, while the Great Emperor-level conflict threatened to shatter the heavens and earth, utterly incapable of bearing the strain.

Below the Flow of Water's feet, countless humans and immortals exploded, turning into dust because they could not withstand the aftershocks of his divine abilities.

You are truly vicious! You don't even spare your own race!

If you tried to control those aftershocks, you could, but the Flow of Water clearly didn't want to. Other than reincarnation experts and above, everyone else was just an ant, dying without regret in his eyes.

Heaven and earth are heartless, treating all things as ants. Having cultivated to the level of the Great Emperor, how can you still have a bit of human kindness?

Flow of Water struck out a giant palm print towards Nathan; the whisk hairs in his hand simultaneously shot out like the tentacles of an octopus, constantly forcing him to retreat.

Fuck your head! If so, you are a dog; your parents are dogs; and your ancestors of eighteen generations are also dogs!

The Fire Blade swung wildly in the air. Nathan fought non-stop while cursing, causing the monks below to widen their eyes, unable to believe that these were words coming from the mouth of a supreme Nether King.

Hell, you are a great emperor, but your words and actions are so unrestrained that today the flow of water will subdue you!

The power of Flow of Water was undeniable, and the mere sight of the Emperor's cherished whisk was enough to make Nathan nervous. The reason was easy to understand because, even in the dream, Flow of Water's combat level was at the Emperor realm, while Nathan was only at Qi Condensation. When fighting, he had to carry Faye in his arms. Now, despite his best efforts, his only success was in preserving his life.

This stinky Taoist priest with a feather duster is really hard to deal with.

Nathan was silent; the more he fought, the more he fell into a disadvantageous position. If a Qi Condensation-level cultivator could defeat an Emperor-level cultivator, then the world would be in chaos.

Faye trembled and said,

Let me go, Nether King; then I can deal with him with all my heart. I understand the Nether King's heart; Faye will die without regret or resentment!

Nathan sighed and did not reply, his left hand hugging Faye's waist even tighter.

Hell, give your life up!

Flow of Water rode the clouds and rushed forward. A green gourd suddenly appeared, emitting an extremely strong suction force, wanting to suck Nathan in.

This time, I didn't expect the Brahma Heaven of the immortal world to be so powerful...

Nathan's expression was solemn; he barely managed to escape from the gourd with all his spiritual power before the dust whisk struck, leaving him without time to use his divine ability.

Just when he thought he would die here, Kaden's voice suddenly appeared from afar:

Who has the courage to harass my younger brother?

Nathan was unaware that he had become the little brother of this individual, as his face was as black as coal. But in terms of status among the Ten Great Kings, Jiang San is truly above Hell.

Jiang San, you came at the right time. Today, my goal is to personally capture the two Hell Kings and return them to the immortal world with military status!

Then let's see if you have this ability! Four-Faced Eight-Armed!

Kaden shouted loudly, eight arms suddenly grew from his waist, and three more heads appeared on his neck. His appearance was strange, but his aura was extremely powerful.

Jiang San Nether King assumed this true form, positioning his right foot on the head of the Great Self-Existing Heaven and his left foot on the body of the Heavenly Flying Demon, both of whom were renowned Great Emperors of the immortal and demon worlds. Although he did not kill them, his strength was completely overwhelming, worthy of the title of King among Great Emperors.

With Kaden joining the battle, Nathan felt more at ease. He began to test the Flow of Water with a variety of attacks and magical powers.

Hell's path was the path of fire and the path of time. The path of fire had reached its zenith, whereas the path of time was still at its pinnacle. Nathan's use of the path of fire would engulf the entire place in karmic fire, burning countless immortal soldiers in the process. Nathan did not underestimate the path of time, even at its peak, as each cut erased the enemy's years. Even as powerful as the Flow of Water was, it was still a bit unbearable.

I'll burn your feather duster to a crisp!

Nathan shouted loudly: The karmic fire covered Flow of Water's feather duster, burning it to the point where only a pale white bone remained. The flow of water changed color and tried to retract the bone, but Kaden clung to it and wouldn't let go.

Haha, the mighty Brahma of the Immortal Realm is so stingy, using dog bones and chicken feathers to make an Emperor's treasure...

Hell, you are the Great Emperor, but your tongue is so vulgar. Don't you feel ashamed?

The flow of water began to lose its composure a little.

What is shame? Can you eat it? The stinky Taoist took the initiative!

Nathan laughed heartily, holding Faye in his left hand and the Fire Flame Saber in his right hand, then slashing down with the Time Slash, taking away the Flow of Water's ten thousand years of life.

Even though your strength is strong, your combat experience is far inferior to mine. Since when has Bright Realm become so weak?

Despite suffering losses continuously, Flow of Water still easily overturned the boat in the ditch, turning back to counterattack, causing the two of them to cough up blood.

Indeed, sustaining injuries in the secret realm will impact the soul!

The two of them simultaneously discovered that their previous guess was correct.

Today, the Flow of Water will single-handedly destroy the two great Nether Kings of Bright Realm!

Flow of Water, despite her disheveled hair and extreme struggle, was on the verge of victory.

- Humph!

At the most intense moment of the battle, a "hmmm" suddenly echoed in the air.

- Seed Seal!

The Laughing Slayer, dressed in cold black, appeared. In this secret realm, his identity was The Warrior's Path, the leader of the Ten Great Kings, and his terror was almost comparable to the Alaca.

The water flow underwent a color change and emitted a loud shout.

The Warrior's Path: You are a half-step world Lord, and you come here to attack me? Shameless!

The Laughing Slayer did not say a word; his hands continuously formed seals, causing the Flow of Water to spit out nine mouthfuls of fresh blood. Obviously, with the three Nether Kings teaming up to attack a Brahma, any disparity in combat experience could be overcome.

I, Nathan, am holding a beauty in one arm and can kill you with my other hand. You disgusting Taoist!

Faye, nestled in Nathan's arms, blushed upon hearing that. For some reason, being next to him made her feel extremely warm.

Hell, you're so shameless; the three of you clearly surrounded me!

The flow of water's anger surged through her heart, and she spat out another mouthful of blood. Kaden was surprised.

Your curse skills are so profound that you can seriously injure a Great Emperor.

The ancients employed their own stick to strike their own backs, while I, Hell, employed the dog bone of Flow of Water to strike him on his own back.

Holding the white bone of the destroyed whisk and hitting Flow of Water's back, Nathan laughed loudly again.

Hell, you motherfucker...

Even the highly respected and virtuous Brahma couldn't help but curse loudly. However, Flow of Water was left stunned and on the verge of fainting when she saw Nathan retreat, pointing his finger directly at his face and uttering the words:

You're so shameless; I've already respected your age, given you a hand, and treated you with courtesy, yet you have no shame and continue to curse my mother.

I hate...

Flow of Water raised his head and roared. He was so indignant that he wanted to self-destruct. But after calming down, he turned into a white smoke and ran away; even the three Nether Kings, using all their strength, couldn't stop him.

Nathan looked at The Laughing Slayer and nodded.

Thank you!

The Laughing Slayer's face was still as cold as ice, and his expression was indifferent, as if nothing in this world could make him feel interesting.

Don't thank me! In ancient times, the Great Emperors were too powerful. If we fought alone, we would surely die. Only by joining forces can we use the Great Emperor in the dream as a whetstone to test our magical abilities!

Kaden said excitedly:

The Laughing Slayer's idea is very good, so for now, let's join forces and fight those Emperors. Once we've finished, we'll divide and fairly compete for the inheritance...

Nathan was holding Faye in his arms when the Laughing Slayer glanced at her.

This is a dream, but you are still as attached to it as Quentin. It really disappoints me.

Kaden fearfully lowered her head as the leader of the Ten Great Kings stared at her, but Nathan's arm, which was hugging her waist, suddenly tightened, forcing her to raise her head again.

How can you compare? Quentin is infatuated with lust, and while I have beauty in my arms stepping on the mortal world, my heroic demeanor is unmatched.

The Laughing Slayer did not respond, so he kept quiet, turned around, and flew straight to the forbidden area of the immortal race, intending to find the Great Emperor to fight.

Kaden and Nathan also quickly flew after him.

The three of them fought the Great Emperor of the immortal race for seven whole days, and their combat experience improved a lot.

Kaden was righteous and majestic; his sword energy was soaring through the heavens and earth.

The Laughing Slayer was cold and silent, his hands continuously striking out unparalleled, powerful hand seals.

Nathan alone held the beauty in his arms; his gestures were unrestrained and arrogant, and the Fire Blade swept across the forbidden area of the immortal race.

It's over, and unexpectedly, the three of us joined hands to kill a Brahma!

Kaden was extremely excited; they were just juniors of Qi Condensation, and although they fought in large numbers against small numbers, such a feat was already very terrifying.

Farewell; the next time we meet, we will be mortal enemies!

The Laughing Slayer coldly left. This person almost never showed any emotion, which made the person on the opposite side feel cold.

Brother Nathan, I'm going back to seclusion. In a few days, it will be time to pay respect to the Demon Lord. See you then!

Everyone left, leaving only Nathan and Faye behind.

Releasing Faye, he raised his hand to his mouth and coughed.

Alright, everyone has parted ways; you and I should also part ways!

Faye was stunned; her eyes were red.

The Nether King doesn't need Faye anymore.

Nathan sighed:

If you don't walk on your own, how can you become a strong person? Being with me will only make you dependent; from now on, you will be free. I brought you to engage in a battle with the Great Emperor of the Immortal Clan to help you overcome your inferiority complex, so please don't let my heart suffer...

Nether King...

Faye gazed at him for an extended period, tears streaming down her cheeks, before finally uttering:

The six realms are extremely dangerous, and the path to cultivation is full of thorns. If one day Faye falls into reincarnation without seeing the Nether King for the last time...

Nathan smiled, suddenly holding Faye's soft hand and turning her palm over.

This is?

Looking at the red flower mark gradually appearing in her palm, Faye asked in surprise.

This is the rhododendron flower from my hometown. I really like this flower because it symbolizes memories. If we really have the chance to meet again, just seeing this flower mark will make me immediately recognize her.

Although Nathan said so, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. This was clearly a dream, but he was too absorbed in it. Saying goodbye to an illusory character, he felt a sense of loss and sadness in his heart.

Thank you, Nether King. If I accidentally fall into reincarnation, I will still come to see you in the next life.

For the first time, a bright smile appeared on Faye's lips. Then she turned away, and after a while, she completely disappeared from Nathan's sight.

He stood still in mid-air, his expression blank.

Is it fake? But why are the feelings real?

There was no response; perhaps we should wait until the end of this secret realm and locate young Steven to ask him for the details.
