2228 Exhausted “Su Zimo, you truly don’t know what’s good for you!” Immortal Tai Hua’s expression was cold. Although he was a reincarnated Perfected Immortal, in his heart, Zither Immortal Meng Yao was also a fairy that could not be sullied! Even in his previous life, he would be respectful when he saw Zither Immortal Meng Yao. At least half of the cultivators in Flying Immortal Sect were in love with Fairy Meng Yao. However, not many people dared to reveal it. That was because in everyone’s hearts, they were not worthy! To think that Su Zimo would openly blaspheme Zither Immortal Meng Yao today. This had touched the tender spot in Immortal Tai Hua’s heart completely! “Su Zimo, let me tell you!” Immortal Tai Hua said slowly, “There are some people you can’t touch. Even if it’s blasphemy with words and gazes, it’s a sin!” “Is that so?” Su Zimo grinned with a cold gaze. “I have something you guys can’t touch too. If you do, you’ll have to die!” The moment he said that, Su Zimo’s gaze shone brightly as he channeled his Essence Spirit wildly. His vast spirit consciousness gathered and released an Essence Spirit secret skill! A palm-sized, seemingly ordinary scale floated out from his glabella slowly with a terrifying aura. The Reverse Scale! “Attack!” Immortal Tai Hua shouted. His glabella shone with a resplendent light and released his Essence Spirit secret skill as well, charging towards the Reverse Scale! The other four Earth Immortals of Flying Immortal Sect were initially condensing their divine powers and secret skills, prepared to release them. However, Su Zimo activated his Essence Spirit secret skill first. Helpless, the four of them could only condense their spirit consciousnesses and release their Essence Spirit secret skills. A fight between Essence Spirits was way too dangerous. Unless necessary, no one would use an Essence Spirit secret skill right away. For example, on the side of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and Flying Immortal Sect, even though they had suffered immense losses and were only left with six people, they had an absolute advantage in numbers. Therefore, they had never thought of using their Essence Spirit secret skills. When the Reverse Scale appeared, they could only use their Essence Spirit secret skills to defend! Tie Han narrowed his eyes slightly. In order to kill Su Zimo without fail, he had collected all the information about Su Zimo and studied it carefully. It was especially so for the battle at the Immortal Sect Selection a thousand years ago. According to his understanding, this Essence Spirit secret skill was extremely terrifying. If one’s Essence Spirit realm was not high enough, they must not touch it! Tie Han hesitated for a moment and did not activate his Essence Spirit secret skill. Right then, Immortal Tai Hua’s Essence Spirit secret skill collided with the Reverse Scale in silence. However, the space where the two Essence Spirit secret skills collided trembled violently and fluctuations that resembled water ripples spread in all directions! This was no ordinary Essence Spirit fight. The aftershock of the clash between two Essence Spirits at the Heaven Immortal realm could be imagined. Even the dozens of cultivators watching beside the Earth Ranking stele felt a chill in their consciousness. Many cultivators even retreated far away from the battlefield. Feng Yin no longer closed his eyes. Instead, he watched the battlefield intently, observing every single detail. He knew that no matter who the eventual victor was, that would be his greatest opponent! The moment Immortal Tai Hua’s Essence Spirit secret skill collided with the Reverse Scale, he suddenly felt a strong sense of danger. It was as though death was about to descend the next moment! Suddenly! A strange power appeared out of thin air in his consciousness and enveloped his weakened Essence Spirit. After releasing his supreme divine power and Essence Spirit secret skill, his Essence Spirit had already become extremely weak and could not defend against the invasion of that strange power! “This is bad!” Immortal Tai Hua’s expression changed starkly. Without hesitation, he channeled his Essence Spirit once more and a powerful energy fluctuation burst forth from his body! A tremendous lifeforce gushed out from Immortal Tai Hua’s body! It was the supreme divine power, Everlasting Vitality! At that critical moment of life and death, Immortal Tai Hua made use of the final bit of Essence Spirit power to release a second supreme divine power! Actually, this was his greatest reliance against Feng Yin. In his initial plan, the fight for the top of the Earth Ranking would be between him and Feng Yin. If the two of them fought to the end and their blood qi, Essence Spirit and Essence Qi were expended to their limits, he could release Everlasting Vitality to recover a large amount of blood qi and Essence Spirit and Essence Qi—there would be no doubt about the outcome of the battle. However, he had not expected that his greatest trump card would be used in advance. He had no other choice. Boom! ... In his consciousness, Immortal Tai Hua’s Essence Spirit released a terrifying spirit consciousness that dispersed the strange power derived from the Reverse Scale and escaped a calamity. “Don’t touch that scale!” Right then, as though he recalled something, Immortal Tai Hua roared and reminded. Unfortunately, it was too late. The Essence Spirit secret skills of the four Earth Immortals of Flying Immortal Sect struck the Reverse Scale one after another. To the four of them, most of the power of the Reverse Scale had already been blocked by Immortal Tai Hua. They felt that the Essence Spirit secret skills of the four of them were enough to crush the Reverse Scale before surging into Su Zimo’s consciousness to kill the Essence Spirit of the latter. However, when their Essence Spirit secret skills collided with the Reverse Scale, their expressions froze and their gazes dimmed as their lifeforce drained rapidly. The Reverse Scale could not hold on any longer and shattered. In the consciousnesses of the four Earth Immortals of Flying Immortal Sect, their Essence Spirits were destroyed as well! The four of them fell weakly to the ground despite being unharmed—they were already dead! ... An Essence Spirit secret skill killed four more people! In just a moment, Immortal Tai Hua and Tie Han were the only ones left after the 18 peak Earth Immortals joined forces! The encirclement was over! After releasing the Reverse Scale, Su Zimo’s figure swayed slightly as well. His face was pale and the light on his glabella turned extremely dim. Even everyone in the square could tell that Su Zimo’s Essence Spirit was exhausted, let alone the cultivators of Level 5. The power of his Essence Spirit and Essence Qi were depleted and he could not use all his divine powers, secret skills and immortal arts. This also meant that Su Zimo would be a fish on the chopping block and his life and death would be in the hands of others! “Sigh, what a pity.” Someone lamented with a look of pity. “The fact that he was able to survive till now against the encirclement of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and Flying Immortal Sect and even kill 16 peak Earth Immortals is enough for him to leave his name through the ages!” “That’s right. Given his combat strength, it’s no exaggeration to claim that he should be at the top of the Earth Ranking!” “However, throughout history, there have been countless paragons and monster incarnates who died prematurely. Who would remember them?” In the square, many cultivators looked at the figure in the Nine Heavens who was fighting alone and sighed. That figure looked a little lonely, pitiful and even tragic. Although Tie Han did not release his Essence Spirit secret skill, he sensed Su Zimo’s weakness and sped towards the latter in a flash! In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived before Su Zimo! He would definitely not miss such a rare and fleeting opportunity!
