Chapter 1566: Third on the Immortal Sovereign List

"This Xu Nian is indeed cunning, using doppelgangers to escape. In this way, the Abyss Demon can’t distinguish which one is his true self." Someone sneered.

"He’s too naive; how could an Emperor-level Abyss Demon be so easily deceived?"

Someone chuckled.

Others deeply agreed.

Emperor-level Abyss Demons are indeed very powerful.

"Buzz!"

Sure enough, on the screen, the Abyss Demon saw Xu Nian escape in ten directions.

Its body unexpectedly split into ten and respectively chased in ten directions.

"Haha, I said this Abyss Demon isn’t easy to deal with." One person laughed heartily.

People around showed helpless smiles.

This Xu Nian was indeed overconfident, thinking he could escape this way.

But the end result was still that he couldn’t escape the Abyss Demon’s pursuit.

"Slash!"

A Soil doppelganger was caught by the Abyss Demon, and a sharp claw ripped Xu Nian’s Soil doppelganger in half.

The Soil doppelganger turned into a lump of mud, falling to the ground instantly.

People around chuckled lightly.

This method is indeed not viable for escape.

"Slash!"

Another doppelganger was slain.

The same scenario appeared in all ten directions.

Xu Nian’s doppelgangers were being slain one by one.

It looked like only the last one was left.

"Haha, looks like Xu Nian will end this trial." Han Lin chuckled.

Yu Qing thought the same.

Clearly, they believed the last one was the true Xu Nian.

"Is junior brother going to end?" Zhao Qiong also lamented.

"I don’t think it’s that simple." Tong Yao smiled.

"Oh? Can junior brother still escape?" Zhao Qiong was puzzled.

At this speed, junior brother’s true self was sure to be caught.

Once caught, it’s impossible to resist the Abyss Demon’s attack.

The people around showed curious expressions.

"Slash!"

At this moment, the last Xu Nian was also caught by the Abyss Demon, penetrated by its sharp claw, ripped into two halves.

"Is it over?"

People around showed curious expressions.

However, Xu Nian’s name on the Sky-reaching Stele did not disappear, it remained solidly in sixth place.

"What’s going on?"

People around were puzzled.

Han Lin and Yu Qing frowned.

"Buzz!"

They saw that the ripped Xu Nian also turned into two lumps of soil.

"Damn! It was also a Soil doppelganger? Not one is his true form?"

"Then where is his true form?"

The crowd was suddenly hit by confusion.

Zhao Qiong and others were also surprised.

"Buzz!"

Just as everyone was puzzled.

In the ruins where Xu Nian originally was, a figure appeared silently and quickly dashed in another direction.

"Damn, this guy’s true form was hiding in the ruins, concealing his aura so even Immortal Emperor experts didn’t notice?"

"That’s so sneaky!"

...

Everyone was stunned by Xu Nian’s maneuver.

No one expected Xu Nian to have escaped with ten doppelgangers earlier, and none were his true form.

His true form was always hidden in the ruins.

After the Abyss Demon chased after the doppelgangers, his true form quietly left.

"Damn, this guy is so shameless!" Han Lin couldn’t help but curse.

"Yeah, utterly shameless!" Yu Qing followed angrily.

However, those around them looked at the two with bewilderment.

Though they thought Xu Nian’s tactic was cunning, it was perfectly logical, not shameless at all.

Suddenly they recalled Han Lin’s ordeal at Xu Nian’s hands and realized.

Both Han Lin and Yu Qing looked awkward.

"Indeed, our junior brother is remarkable." Zhao Qiong laughed proudly.

No one anticipated Xu Nian’s strategy to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

After all, from their view, Xu Nian’s act of escaping with ten doppelgangers clearly implied one was genuine.

But the true form was always in the ruins.

In the Sky-reaching World, Xu Nian transformed into flowing light and vanished.

By the time the Abyss Demon realized something was wrong and returned, Xu Nian had already escaped without a trace.

Using his Dan Sea Species Green Lotus cultivation technique, he could completely conceal his aura.

So even Immortal Emperor experts might not detect him.

"I escaped a disaster." Xu Nian slightly eased up, seeing no pursuit from the Abyss Demon.

Luckily, he had this Elemental Avatar secret technique, or else he truly wouldn’t know how to evade the pursuit of an Emperor-level Abyss Demon.

He certainly wasn’t its match.

Xu Nian looked at the information on his identity token.

Within this brief moment, the number of people decreased from one hundred to seventy.

This means thirty people lost their lives within this short time.

"Huh, a spatial barrier, seems this Sky-reaching World is truly shrinking." Xu Nian flew for a while but found himself at the world’s end.

The Sky-reaching World is continuously shrinking.

This implies their survival space will soon become smaller and smaller.

Then, the likelihood of encountering Emperor-level Abyss Demons will increase.

"Boom!"

At this moment, a loud boom echoed from afar.

Terrifying energy radiated towards this place.

"Such strong energy fluctuations, who is fighting with such mighty force?" Xu Nian asked, surprised.

This energy fluctuation contained very powerful Thunder Attribute Law Power.

This power is clearly stronger than his Melting Power.

"Let’s take a look!"

Xu Nian hurried towards the battlefield.

When he saw the battle ahead, he also showed a shocked expression.

A youth was fighting evenly against an Emperor-level Abyss Demon.

The crucial point is, this young man could hold his own with an Emperor-level Abyss Demon.

"So powerful, who is this person?" Xu Nian wondered.

Being able to fight evenly against an Emperor-level expert, especially for a youth whose cultivation is only at Immortal Sovereign Peak.

Such strength is absolutely terrifying.

It’s known that the gap between Immortal Sovereign Peak and Immortal Emperor is immense.

"Is he Huo Yun, the top scorer?" Xu Nian thought, then guessed his identity.

Huo Yun is the top scorer, the disciple of Fuhua Immortal Emperor.

He’s also ranked third on the Immortal Sovereign List.

Moreover, he’s now the number one among young elites of Shendang Mountain.

"Damn, Senior Brother Huo Yun actually tied with an Emperor-level Abyss Demon?"

"My God, that’s terrifying!"

"Wow, Brother Huo is so handsome!"

...

The outside world was also in a frenzy.

Seeing Huo Yun’s fight with the Abyss Demon left everyone speechless with astonishment.

This is the top battle power among the young generation of Shendang Mountain!

Simply too strong!
