Chapter 167: Becoming a True Weapon Spirit

Just a glance made Chen Ansheng feel extremely uncomfortable.

The Immortal King was too powerful!

“No wonder my master Elder Ji, as a dual-aspect Celestial Immortal, could not defeat him and only managed to injure him!”

Chen Ansheng murmured to himself, realizing a truth: in the Immortal Realm, surpassing one major realm to kill an enemy was nearly impossible.

Let alone one major realm; even surpassing a minor realm to deal with an opponent required extraordinary means or weapons.

For instance, Chen Ansheng was currently at the initial stage of a True Immortal. To kill someone at the mid-stage of a True Immortal, he would at least need to truly become a cultivator of both techniques and martial arts.

If it was already difficult to surpass realms in the True Immortal stage, it would be even harder in the Mystic Immortal and Celestial Immortal stages. As for the Immortal King, without exceedingly heavenly means, even contemplating crossing realms was a folly.

“Stupid donkey, hurry up and run! He’s coming to kill you!”

Beside him, Zhong Li, who had also been shaken by the gaze of the Immortal King, finally awoke as she saw him move.

Run? Where to run?

Behind them, Saintess Ziyun had just engaged in combat with Lin Mansion Lord, and the battle was fierce. The aftermath of that fight was something Chen Ansheng could hardly endure.

“Master, this servant still has strength left. Please, allow me to battle that world-defying strongman!”

At that moment, a voice from the halberd spoke again—an Alien Immortal’s voice.

“Huh? It’s it!” Chen Ansheng was surprised; he had just let the soul of the Alien Immortal hide in the halberd, and now he was its master? What a bargain!

After a brief pause, Chen Ansheng replied, “What do you want me to do to assist you?”

The Alien Immortal’s soul replied respectfully, “Master only needs to focus your thoughts and merge my soul with the imperial rune on the divine weapon.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Ansheng’s spiritual thoughts surged and flowed into the halberd.

In his vision, the Alien Immortal’s soul was hovering above a stone plate with a “halberd”-shaped groove. The plate was engraved with dense, unknown mystic patterns that blocked it from entering the groove.

Seeing this, Chen Ansheng immediately understood: only when the Alien Immortal’s soul entered the “halberd” groove could it truly become a weapon spirit, merging with the halberd.

Understanding this, Chen Ansheng immediately used his Master’s thought to send the Alien Immortal’s soul into the groove below.

In an instant, mysterious patterns glowed, and countless golden runes flew out, wrapping the Alien Immortal’s soul. In a flash, the soul was transformed into the shape of a “halberd” by the runes.

In the next moment, the Alien Immortal’s soul successfully embedded itself into the groove, truly merging with the halberd and becoming a weapon spirit.

“Thank you, Master.” After expressing gratitude, the Alien Immortal weapon spirit continued, “Please accept the ‘Heavenly Gathering Divine Stone,’ and unfold the world of the heavens and earth, and this servant will be able to battle.”

Chen Ansheng was still puzzled about what the Heavenly Gathering Divine Stone was when a thumb-sized, dark green divine stone rapidly flew out from the halberd, hovering in front of him in the blink of an eye.

Chen Ansheng waved his hand to draw the divine stone to himself, holding it in his palm.

A torrent of information flooded into his mind, and he understood exactly what this Heavenly Gathering Divine Stone was.

This stone contained the laws and realms of the world where the Alien Immortal resided. As long as it was embedded into the “Dao Seed,” it could be controlled, allowing for the unfolding of an Alien World.

“So it turns out that the Alien World it previously unfolded was not due to its immense power, but because of this divine stone.”

Chen Ansheng had previously been puzzled as to why the Alien Immortal could still create an Alien World even while in a dormant state.

With this divine stone, he could now unfold the Alien World anytime and anywhere!

“Ant, you will pay a terrible price for everything you have done!”

From a distance, the Immortal King gazed at Chen Ansheng, a torrent of murderous intent surging forth.

Chen Ansheng felt the terrifying sound wave almost crush him.

Thus, without hesitation, he sent the Heavenly Gathering Divine Stone into his body, embedding it into the Dao Seed.

“Unfold the world!”

With a thought, Chen Ansheng unfolded an Alien World almost instantaneously.

However, this Alien World he unfolded only spanned about five hundred kilometers, much smaller than the one previously unfurled by the Alien Immortal.

“Master, retreat for now and let this servant protect you!”

Once the Alien World was opened, a layer of terrifying black mist swirled around the halberd, blocking the Immortal King from advancing.

“Good, good, good! Go all out and obliterate that fellow for me!”

Chen Ansheng replied.

“This servant obeys!”

“Roar!”

Accompanied by a sharp cry, the phantom of the Alien Immortal emerged from the halberd.

It waved its claws, and the halberd began to shrink, becoming the size that suited it perfectly.

“Kill!”

The phantom of the Alien Immortal, wielding the divine halberd, stood firm at the edge of the Alien World, blocking the charging Immortal King.

Seeing this, the Immortal King was furious.

If it hadn’t been for that strange halberd appearing just now, he would have long ago ensured the demise of this Alien Immortal!

“That ant is causing trouble again; it must die!”

Having fused with Dong Xingchang’s soul, the Immortal King naturally understood all the events that had transpired.

Since he fell into slumber, his servants had been killed!

Now that he was about to fully revive, he was sabotaged by an ant!

What was even harder for him to bear was that, due to this ant’s interference, he had to gnaw on his own beloved child!

Such myriad grievances were simply irreconcilable!

“Kill, kill, kill! This king will definitely tear you to pieces today!”

Boom!

The power of the Immortal King erupted, summoning a violent storm of space.

Feeling the incredibly violent force, Chen Ansheng wanted to flee, but he could not!

Because if he retreated, the Alien World would also shift, and without the Alien Immortal’s soul within it, he would be unable to exert any power.

Fortunately, as the storm swept toward them, the Alien Immortal’s soul began to protect its master, forming an extremely powerful defense shield that protected both Chen Ansheng and Zhong Li.

“That Alien Immortal is actually protecting us!”

Zhong Li was genuinely shocked. She had thought the Alien Immortal was dead, yet it had reemerged and was actively protecting her and Chen Ansheng.

“No way.”

Upon reflection, Zhong Li squinted at Chen Ansheng.

“Stupid donkey, that divine weapon is summoned by you, so it must have subdued the Alien Immortal’s soul. That’s why it’s protecting you and, by extension, me, right?”

Chen Ansheng did not deny it, laughing, “You truly are sharp; you figured it out!”

“Of course! Such an obvious thing, if I couldn’t see through it, wouldn’t I be even denser than you!” Zhong Li retorted angrily. “You idiot! With such a divine weapon, why didn’t you bring it out sooner? You made me suffer so much, almost losing my life!”

Chen Ansheng shrugged innocently, “I swear by heaven, I already told you to witness my great treasure; it’s your own twisted thoughts that refused to see it.”

Zhong Li was momentarily taken aback.

So this so-called great treasure of his was actually that divine halberd.

“Still blaming me? Who told you to describe it in such a disgusting way!”

Zhong Li shot Chen Ansheng a fierce glare.

Chen Ansheng lazily said, “Don’t quibble! Just tell me, is it big, is it mighty, is it powerful? Is it a treasure or not?”

Zhong Li: “…”

She truly wanted to strangle this stupid donkey.
