Chapter 823 823: Playing the Role of a Personal Grandmaster
All the demons were about to turn to stone.It wasn't until Brother Cheng led Cai Ying into the back hall that the demons outside finally erupted.
The Cyan Dragon Emperor was the first to express his mature opinion.
"This kid is getting cocky."
"His powerful strength has gone to his head, capturing the high ground of intelligence and leaving him dazed."
"I've heard that sometimes those muddle-headed rulers in small worlds make absurd decisions, and I think he shows signs of becoming such a ruler."
"It's a pitiful outcome of lacking foundation and accumulation, unlike us ancient creatures who tread step by step…"
The other Demon Emperors weren't as harsh with their words.
At most, they merely expressed confusion.
The White Tiger Emperor pondered for a long while and finally said blankly, "I totally can't understand what this is about."
The Ice Phoenix Emperor slowly remarked, "I also can't see the point, apart from sending that Little Sparrow Demon to its death."
The Kunpeng Emperor shook his head, "Maybe the Demon Lord is just desperately bored, looking for some fun."
The sparrow demons felt like they were at a funeral.
"It's over, is the Demon Lord really becoming a muddle-headed ruler?"
"Cai Ying is doomed…"
"Alas, we just saw Cai Ying for the last time."
Que Mi wiped the tears from the corner of his eye, "Everyone must remember her, as long as we remember, she will live forever in our hearts."
As the sparrow demons outside began preemptively mourning, Brother Cheng had already led Cai Ying to the back hall.
They were joined by Cang Ling and Miao Yu.
"What are you really up to this time?"
Fairy Miao's face was filled with strong incomprehension, "I really want to open that entrance, but not at the cost of the Little Sparrow Demon's life."
"I've told you she doesn't have to die; why won't you believe it?"
Brother Cheng shook his head helplessly, then looked to Cai Ying.
"You can transform into a human form, right?"
"You can't go roaming the Immortal and Demon Realms in your current form."
Even though Brother Cheng and Cang Ling were not releasing any strong person pressure, the little Seven-Colored Sparrow was still extremely nervous in front of two Great Emperors.
Upon hearing this, she quickly nodded.
Transforming into a human form was not a difficult task for the Demon Race.
Soon, a gleam of colorful light flashed, and a lovely young girl, looking about sixteen or seventeen, appeared before Sect Leader Jiang.
Brother Cheng, seeing this high-level beauty, was even more satisfied.
"Not bad, not bad!"
Cang Ling couldn't help but be a wet blanket.
"Even if she transforms, what's the use? Any Immortal with a higher realm than hers can instantly see she's a sparrow demon."
Miao Yu nodded, "Yes, trying to blend into the Immortal Realm this way is far too naive."
Just a casual glance allowed her to see the extremely obvious illusionary image of the Seven-Colored Sparrow on the girl.
With a bit more effort, she could even directly see through to her Demon Pill within.
"Is that so difficult?"
He'd dealt with so many Immortal Emperors and Demon Emperors; what kind of Immortal Treasure for concealment didn't he have?
After rummaging through his ring, he quickly found an Ultimate Level Immortal Treasure used for concealing aura—the Celestial Secret Cloud Pendant.
Though the earring couldn't hide her original realm, it perfectly matched her current form.
After hanging it on Cai Ying's left ear, Miao Yu and Cang Ling couldn't even spot a flaw, even when looking with Immortal Souls.
The Celestial Secret Cloud Pendant truly lived up to its Ultimate Level Immortal Treasure status, simulating the Immortal Soul, Daoist Heart, and Immortal Power fluctuations of a Celestial Immortal of the Human Race to match Cai Ying's current human form and realm.
It was just a façade, though.
"You're really lavish; this is an Ultimate Level Immortal Treasure!"
Even Immortal Emperors don't all possess Ultimate Level Immortal Treasures.
In Miao Yu's view, even if this Little Sparrow Demon could perfectly infiltrate the Immortal and Demon Realms, she wouldn't survive long.
Bear in mind, this is the Upper Immortal Realm.
A region where the average cultivation is above Profound Immortal.
The Upper Immortal Realm does have True and Celestial Immortals, but those are novices sheltered by Sect Clans yet to grow up.
What does this Little Sparrow Demon have? Venturing alone into the Immortal and Demon Realms is akin to a little white rabbit entering a wolf pack.
Not only would her life be forfeited, but the Ultimate Level Immortal Treasure would surely be lost too.
Why bother?
After completing her disguise, Brother Cheng pulled out a Tier Nine Immortal Sword.
He was about to hand it to Cai Ying when Miao Yu hurriedly stopped him.
"Do you want to cause her early demise?"
"What's wrong?"
Miao Yu was at a loss between laughter and tears, did this guy never have any training experience?
How did he survive when he was weak?
"A Celestial Immortal waving around a Tier Nine Immortal Sword over there won't last long before getting torn to pieces."
"Then Tier Eight will do."
"Tier Eight won't either!"
"Tier Seven! It can't go any lower than that, can the hero I've chosen really have no presence?"
Without any further argument, Brother Cheng found a Tier Seven Immortal Sword and handed it to Cai Ying.
Cai Ying felt rather moved.
Both hands held the sword flat, her adorable face was extremely serious.
"Thank you, Demon Lord, for bestowing the treasure!"
"May I ask when I depart?"
Brother Cheng laughed, shaking his head, "Did you really intend to rush over like this? Isn't that just a death sentence? Of course, I have protective measures."
Upon hearing this, the three females suddenly realized.
"So, you had a backup plan all along?"
"You should've said so earlier, making us worry for nothing."
Even before they finished speaking, Brother Cheng sat down cross-legged.
Then his Immortal Soul directly separated from his body and entered the sword scabbard of the Tier Seven Immortal Sword.
"Alright, all set."
His Immortal Soul's voice echoed from the sword scabbard.
"With me as your Personal Grandmaster, you'll be unstoppable in the Immortal and Demon Realms."
Cai Ying was both surprised and delighted, so the Demon Lord himself would be ensuring her safety on this mission, what is there to be afraid of?
However, Cang Ling and Miao Yu couldn't share the joy.
The two females' faces fell in unison.
"An out-of-body Immortal Soul is your brilliant strategy?"
"Have you lost your mind?"
"I haven't lost my mind, power not belonging to the Immortal Realm can't cross that line; my Profound Essence is in my body, now with the Immortal Soul out of body, I can't use the Profound Pattern Power anymore."
Brother Cheng explained smugly, "My Immortal Soul doesn't contain power not belonging to the Immortal Realm, so I can go beyond that line with her."
Currently, his body left behind was practically a living corpse, for it had lost its Immortal Soul.
This wasn't a Clone Technique but merely a basic Soul-Body Separation.
Cang Ling shook his head with a chuckle, "But you're incredibly weak now, even if you get past the line, what good would it do? Are you going to die?"
Miao Yu was also unable to comprehend, "An unanchored out-of-body Immortal Soul, it's nothing more than a rootless tree, its power will diminish drastically, by dozens of times over, and will weaken even further with time."
"Any random Immortal Emperor could easily kill you."
"Apart from going to your death, I see no point in this."
Brother Cheng thought they'd guessed right.
I'm indeed going to my death.
Even though the Profound Pattern is gone, and the power of the Immortal Soul has greatly diminished, the system still works!
With the Undying Skill and system skills, what can't be achieved?
This is a method even the Heavenly Dao cannot lock down!
"It's been ages since I used my old specialty; I'm getting rusty, time to practice!"
