This Young Master is not Cannon Fodder

Silence descended onto the remains of the Fleeting Mist Sect. No one expected this turn of events. Before it was numerous Immortal Monarchs surrounding a single Immortal Monarch.

Now it was an Immortal Emperor facing off against a group of Immortal Monarchs.

The fluctuations rolled off Emperor Mirrorevil like concussive waves and battered the Immortal Monarchs surrounding him. Each crash caused slight tremors against their souls and caused them to see stars in their vision.

Now that Emperor Mirrorevil no longer hid his mastery and even the aura exuded from his soul became a passive attack. But the group of Immortal Monarchs soon discovered an inconsistency.

The fallen Monarch Warpath landed with a terrific explosion, causing a crater to form. Although he had returned to a mere two-meter height, his body weighed more than the densest metal of equal volume, and as such, the impact was cataclysmic.

A fair distance away, Monarch Allroot's body had ceased breathing and lost all signs of vitality. The soul was the basis of all life; a body without the soul would soon perish. His great vitally came from the Dao that his soul operated. Without his soul, his body died despite the vitality that remained even after death.

However, Monarch Warpath's body still had a hint of breath. Although weak, it persisted. If one observed closely, they could even detect that the breath was increasing in strength!

Monarch, no Emperor Mirrorevil's soul attack did not wholly extinguish Monarch Warpath's soul. His martial body was intact, and through his unique means, began to heal his weakened soul.

Bloodsoul Rebirth

A body is created from the blueprints within the cells of the body. This was something long known to martial cultivators who explored the mysteries of their bodies and altered it. When the body was injured, as long as you had the resources and energy, a body part, whether a patch of skin or an arm or leg, could be restored with enough time and resources.

Then what if someone added the blueprint of the soul into these cells? This was something many soul and martial cultivators tried to do, but the one who came closest was no doubt Monarch Warpath. As a result, he was the Monarch least afraid against Soul Monarchs.

But even he would perish to a Soul Emperor. Had it been a true Immortal Emperor, that is.

"Strange, Monarch Warpath still remains alive while Monarch Allroot has perished!"

"Look closely, although our souls are being pressured, it isn't from the might of an Immortal Emperor!"

"You're right!"

"Mirrorevil can truly be called an Immortal Emperor, from esoteric techniques he used, he must have already reached the Immortal Emperor level in Dao alone! But his cultivation base is still at the Seamless Immortal Realm!"

"Everyone attack him, we still have a chance!"

"Fool! Have you forgotten about Monarch Allroot!? Monarch Warpath may have survived due to his unique means, but what about us?"

"That was because they all attacked one on one! If we attack all at us, the power of his soul techniques will be diluted among us!"

"Can you truly take that gamble!?"

"Think clearly for a moment. If Mirrorevil ascended to become a full Immortal Emperor in both Dao and Cultivation, then we would be jumping into a pit of death. But he still hasn't transcended the Seamless Immortal Realm. Then why did he claim to be an Immortal Monarch and unleashed his soul pressure? It is to call and bluff! We won't have another chance like this!"

"You are right! Comrades, some of you may not have remembered the atrocities Mirrorevil committed, but those of us who have lived from then, do you still remember!? The terror that he brought forth. Before we take the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus, we must kill him! If that devil survives, even if we snatch the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus, he will surely bring disaster. The bloodbaths he committed are the proof!"

All this happened in an instant. By using their immortal senses to communicate with the other, the speed and information conveyed were far more than what mere words could do alone. The end result was a temporary coalition whose goal was to kill Emperor Mirrorevil before he could fully ascend to become a true Immortal Emperor and then snatch the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus.

A few Immortal Monarchs did not join and instead retreated towards the rear. At this moment, they realized Mengfei was still in the Huang Realm but had not taken any action even with Emperor Mirrorevil's reveal.

A few who thought themselves smart immediately tried to send a message to Mengfei using their immortal sense, but once they entered a certain radius, the immortal sense disappeared. No, it dissolved and merged with heaven and earth.

The Immortal Monarchs frowned but refrained from attempting to do anything else.

Monarch Yonderheart shook his head as he watched this. If Sword Empress Xi wanted to take action, she would've done so the moment Emperor Mirrorevil uprooted the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus or when he unleashed his attack that utilized his Emperor level Dao.

At this moment, a voice sounded in his head.

"Cloud Goddess?"

Monarch Yonderheart asked. He looked up into the sky and into the Vast Void. There was no hint of any of the three Immortal Emperor ranked experts after they left the Huang Realm.

"My cloud clone is hidden by Eternal Night Emperor's Heaven Covering Night Shroud. We have yet to finish our fight. At the same time, we cannot detect anything outside."

"Then, if I may ask, how did you contact me?"

"It's not my cloud clone that is contacting you but my Aspect. My true body is still in the Cloud Goddess Cult after all, but my connection with my cloud clone is muddled."

Aspect, it was similar to an Avatar. While an Avatar was created from splitting a portion of a cultivator's soul, an Aspect was created, converting someone into your copy. Naturally, depending on the talent and cultivation of that person, the Aspect created will vary wildly. But the greatest advantage was that it did not need you to split your soul.

But this was a technique that only Divinities possessed, and only someone who was wholly devoted and faithful to the Divinity was eligible to be converted into an Aspect.

Monarch Yonderheart sighed in amazement.

"Monarch Yonderheart, I am unsure of when I will be able to leave Eternal Night Emperor's Night Shroud. But the same could be said for Empress Voidink. However, I do not know why Eternal Night Emperor hasn't mentioned the matter of Mirrorevil. Perhaps he is confident in not letting Mirrorevil leave. That is why we must seize this chance!"

"Seize the chance? Unfortunately, my battle prowess isn't as excellent as my evasion skills."

Monarch Yonderheart creased his brows. He had come hoping only to try his chances. If he died, although his sect would cause a commotion, the Buzhou Immortal Sect and the six Vassal Sect would likely ignore it. In fact, they might even celebrate his demise. As such, he placed his first priority as staying alive, and his second priority as keeping the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus from the other forces of Heaven Continent.

"You only need to use your greatest skill and snatch the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus once I create the opening."

Monarch Yonderheart still wasn't convinced.

"Cloud Goddess, I am the only expert in the Dao of Space among the Anti-Heaven Alliance. I do not think I am able to make such a decision unless there is a trump card that can make up for all that."

"My Aspect's strength is equal to that of an Immortal Monarch. However, for a short amount of time, I can unleash strength equal to an Immortal Emperor. The price would be the disintegration of this Aspect."

Monarch Yonderheart's eyes lightened up at the Cloud Goddess's words.

"Then what about Sword Empress Xi?"

"She will not easily move. Her current state of being is special right now."

"Then...how should we split the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus?"

There was only one Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus. Before the plan could be carried out, how to distribute the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus was a must. The Cloud Goddess didn't even take a moment to reply.

"I will take the core, seeds, and four petals. You will be given five of the petals."

"Impossible. That is far too less. The risk I'm taking is tremendous as the greatest expert in the Dao of Space in the Anti-Heaven Alliance. I need nine petals and half the seeds!"

Like this, the two haggled over the exact distribution before they both agreed. Rather than a transaction for the whole Anti-Heaven Alliance, this was closer to a transaction between the individuals known as Cloud Goddess and Monarch Yonderheart.

The Immortal Monarchs surrounding Emperor Mirrorevil all had pale faces. Their conjectures were true. Emperor Mirrorevil wasn't capable of slaying so many Immortal Monarchs at once with his current cultivation base. But that did not make this battle any easier.

Wounds riddled Emperor Mirrorevil, but the Immortal Monarchs were not much better. Their faces were pale, and their chest tightened with each passing second.

While they prevented Emperor Mirrorevil from feeling, he had deployed a wide domain that continuously drained their souls of its strength. Now the group was attacking even more wildly and in desperation than before. Retreating and giving up might have seemed like an option, but there was more fear in the retaliation of Emperor Mirrorevil, who was once known as a Junior Devil Immortal.

At this moment, a black streak crashed into Emperor Mirrorevil's domain. The black streak was the Cloud Goddess's Aspect. The whole body was black as if formed by miasma itself, not a single part was another color.

But the greatest shock was the aura it exuded—a divine and holy aura incompatible with the black miasma. And it was an aura that surpassed the Pseudo Emperor strength that Emperor Mirrorevil had.

"Cloud Goddess!"

Many people realized the identity of her Aspect. They had hundreds of questions, such as why she was here, how she came here, where were Eternal Night Emperor and Empress Voidink? But their reactions weren't slow as they all retreated from Emperor Mirrorevil's domain.

The Cloud Goddess was an Immortal Emperor level experts for a long time, nothing like Emperor Mirrorevil.

Emperor Mirrorevil, who was no longer surrounded by the Immortal Monarchs, found himself in even greater peril as he continuously unleashed soul attacks after soul attacks. But the Cloud Goddess's Aspect just ignored it and allowed it to batter her without care.

Emperor Mirrorevil frowned. Even if the Cloud Goddess had proclaimed her fame for years, his attacks should not be so meaningless against her.

The battle raged, and the Cloud Goddess hand latched onto Emperor Mirroevil's right hand. Her form began to grow blurry as black miasma clouds corroded Emperor Mirrorevil's arm.

Emperor Mirrorevil's body changed and became reflective, like mirrors. This was a martial body he cultivated, Glass Soul Body. It didn't have any outstanding defense or attacks but was a support type martial body that increased the power of his soul attack.

With a chop, Emperor Mirrorevil used his right hand to sever his left that was holding onto the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus. There was no blood from the stump, and instead, an ethereal silver stream merged. His severed left arm and hand soon also shattered into a million tiny pieces.

Light brighter than the solar star erupted and assaulted the Cloud Goddess's Aspect. Even she would not be able to ignore an attack that Emperor Mirroreviled evoked from sacrificing his left arm. But she didn't care and rammed head onto the attack.

When the attack disappeared, the Cloud Goddess's Aspect's right arm and part of her torso were missing. But she didn't care as she used her remaining arm and caught the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus.

Just as Emperor Mirrorevil was about to charge towards the Cloud Goddess's Aspect, she threw the treasure in her hand towards the distant where no Immortals were near, stunning everyone. Even Emperor Mirrorevil was stunned.

But at this moment, a black hole in the fabric of reality appeared. From within stretched out Monarch Yonderheart's hand and caught the Sovereign Nine Yin Lotus.

From within the hole, Monarch Yonderheart showed a pleased expression and was just about to retract his arm, but he felt his body ignore his command. Even as he panicked, the pleased smile on his face still remained as he walked out of the hole and just stood there in the air.

Mengfei's eyelids trembled before she opened her eyes, not half-lidded like before but fully open.

A ghostly figure materialized behind Monarch Yonderheart, and behind that ghostly figure, a four-story red pagoda appeared.

The figure wore red robes and half white hair with a single horn growing out from his forehead. He looked lightly at Monarch Yonderheart, but Monarch Yonderheart felt his heart chill as his thoughts began to grow dark.

Under the shocked gazes of all the Immortals present, a gigantic red dolphin with a horn atop its forehead emerged from Monarch Yonderheart. The dolphin then flew into the Soul Pagoda while Monarch Soulfish threw the soulless body inside as well.

The Immortal felt as if someone had bludgeoned their minds with a hammer. This scene played out eerily similar to a scene moments ago—the scene of Emperor Mirrorevil exterminating Monarch Allroots's soul and nearly eradicating Monarch Warpath's soul.

Don't tell them that Monarch Soulfish was also actually Emperor Soulfish!?
