Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 1570: Pursuit and Assassination

Oh, the Forbidden Land?

Seeing that Immortal King Zi Feng was rushing straight towards the Forbidden Land, Shi Hao immediately knew what the other’s plan was.

Indeed, only the Forbidden Land might save Immortal King Zi Feng’s life.

The Forbidden Land is fraught with danger, even Immortal Venerable wouldn’t dare claim they could easily traverse it.

Therefore, using the terrain there could indeed help shake off Shi Hao’s pursuit.

If things went wrong, it might even lead to Shi Hao’s defeat.

After all, even Immortal Venerable could be slain in there, so it would be no surprise if Shi Hao were heavily injured or even died.

Shi Hao gave a faint smile; surely, Immortal King Zi Feng didn’t know that he had not only entered the Forbidden Land several times but had also reached its very center, only not traversed the final muddy path. Otherwise, Immortal King Zi Feng might reconsider the idea of entering the Forbidden Land.

But, to take a step back, the Forbidden Land was Immortal King Zi Feng’s last hope; otherwise... where else could he go?

Shi Hao wasn’t in a hurry; a few days later, he caught up with Immortal King Zi Feng.

This inevitably led to a battle, and Immortal King Zi Feng was once again heavily wounded by Shi Hao.

Shi Hao did not deliver a killing blow, allowing Immortal King Zi Feng to escape.

In the past, you relentlessly hunted me; how could I let you die so easily?

Sometimes, Shi Hao did have a petty side.

Immortal King Zi Feng truly wanted a death match with Shi Hao; after all, he was an Immortal King, and every one of them who reached this point was a king amongst men of their time.

But he quickly suppressed such impulses.

If there were going to be a final battle, it should happen within the Forbidden Land.

If they fought here, he would surely die, but within the Forbidden Land, he might drag Shi Hao down with him or even counter-kill him.

As an Immortal King, he could certainly endure.

Otherwise, how else would he have had the chance to become an Immortal King in the first place?

One fleeing, one pursuing, they crossed one Immortal Realm after another, not far from the Forbidden Land.

This pursuit slowly spread throughout the Immortal Realm.

Impossible!

When the news came, everyone’s first reaction was that it was absurd that Shi Hao could chase a Seven-Star Immortal King into fleeing to the Forbidden Land?

Wasn’t it a huge joke?

Yes, Shi Hao was extraordinary, but he had just stepped into the realm of Immortal King and could defeat a Seven-Star Immortal King?

Moreover, Immortal King Zi Feng possessed an Immortal King Artifact, with a Seven-Star Immortal King plus an Immortal King Artifact, that’s a Nine-Star combat power!

Just ask, who in the world could suppress a Nine-Star Immortal King combat power?

Only an Immortal Venerable.

So, how was this possible?

Yet, this was personally confirmed by Ice River Immortal King, so could it be false?

Below the level of Immortal King, no one was willing to accept this reality, only believing it to be a fabrication, but at the level of the Immortal King, everyone was shocked.

——Shi Hao had a Five-Star Immortal King combat power when he was a quasi-Immortal King, and now that he had stepped into the realm of Immortal King, instantly pushing his combat power to Nine Stars, though a bit exaggerated, was not impossible.

Amazing, truly amazing, this era is going to witness an unparalleled prodigy.

After spending two months, Immortal King Zi Feng finally fled into the Forbidden Land.

The Domain Wall, difficult for Jade Immortals to breach, could always reveal a weak spot upon careful searching, thus digging out a passage. However, for Immortal Kings, the Domain Wall was a joke; a mere collision would create a hole, allowing easy passage.

Upon entering the Forbidden Land, Immortal King Zi Feng continued forward. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Evidently, the outer area couldn’t stop Shi Hao.

To trap someone stronger than oneself, of course, one must first place themselves in danger.

He fled relentlessly, occasionally caught up by Shi Hao, resulting in fierce battles, leaving him constantly wounded.

Shi Hao was very measured; after heavily injuring his opponent, he would stop and retreat, giving Immortal King Zi Feng a sliver of hope, so he wouldn’t self-destruct in anger.

He didn’t pursue too closely, as hunting was also a pleasure; otherwise, playing with Immortal King Zi Feng for a year would be quite dull, wouldn’t it?

Now, Immortal King Zi Feng had already run quite far; Shi Hao finally launched his pursuit.

He tracked Immortal King Zi Feng’s lingering aura, utilizing instantaneous movement, bizarre and unmatched.

Huh?

He suddenly paused because he discovered an Immortal Elixir.

Immortal King Zi Feng... could wait for now. In the Forbidden Land, the value of discovered Immortal Elixirs was absolutely astonishing.

Shi Hao changed direction; after a few instances of instantaneous movement, he discovered the Immortal Elixir.

But, he was not alone here.

There were others, two of them.

"Shi, Shi Hao?" The two also turned around, revealing expressions of shock upon seeing Shi Hao.

How could they see him here?

Wasn’t this the territory marked by Immortal Venerable, where outsiders shouldn’t be able to enter?

What was going on?

Shi Hao merely smiled; speaking of which, these two had been his companions for a time.

——Wu Mingjun and Ruan Zhixiong, descendants of the Bei Miao Sect of Immortal Venerable Beimiao.

"Haha, how about you two let me have this Immortal Elixir?" Shi Hao said with a laugh.

"Shi Hao, do you know where this place is?" Wu Mingjun said coldly; this Immortal Elixir was no ordinary product, it was an Immortal King level Great Medicine, and it wasn’t meant for the two of them, it was designated by a great figure long ago.

The two of them were here merely because the Immortal Elixir was about to mature, and they were needed to guard it, for there were some mystical creatures here; although not powerful, even Immortal Kings couldn’t detect their aura and could only see them with the naked eye.

So, they took on the task, guarding the Immortal Elixir to prevent it from being gnawed by these creatures, and later, they had to harvest the Immortal Elixir and deliver it to the prominent figure.

Daring to claim this important person’s possession, would Shi Hao dare?

Stepping back, this was also a possession of the Bei Miao Sect, something that Shi Hao shouldn’t covet in any way.

Shi Hao was surprised: "This is the Forbidden Land, of course I know."

"Hmph, this is the territory of our Bei Miao Sect, this Immortal Elixir also belongs to us, so if you dare have designs on it, you would be making an enemy of the Bei Miao Sect!" Ruan Zhixiong also coldly said, "You’re just a minor Jade Immortal, don’t be too presumptuous!"

Shi Hao was puzzled: "How long have you been here?"

How long?

A very, very long time!

After being eliminated from the training camp, they were punished to guard the Immortal Elixir here, no choice, for they had disgraced the Bei Miao Sect.

"Why do you ask?" Wu Mingjun said.

Shi Hao sighed: "You’ve been out of touch with the world for too long and have no idea how strong I am now, do you?"

How strong could you be?

More than a hundred years ago, you were a Jade Immortal, now at most Nine-Star, after all, the transition to a quasi-Immortal King is extremely difficult; being stuck for even a few thousand years is not uncommon.

Shi Hao smiled faintly, reaching out to grasp that Great Medicine.

"Presumptuous!" Wu and Ruan joined forces, hurriedly launching an attack on Shi Hao.
