Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor

"Darn Human Clan, take my fist!"

Yama, finding his giant axe ineffective against Li Chen, was shocked and swung his fist furiously, unleashing a Black Tiger Heart Stealing blow towards Li Chen's chest.

However, when his fist struck Li Chen, it was as if it hit a metal steel plate, even making a crisp sound.

"Damn it, how can your physical body be so strong?"

Yama was so shocked that his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. His punch carried the weight of a hundred thousand pounds, enough to instantly kill a giant elephant. Yet, this little Foundation Establishment Cultivator took his punch as if nothing had happened. This was truly inconceivable, completely beyond his imagination.

Li Chen dusted off his slightly wrinkled clothes with a mocking tone, scornfully taunting.

"Haven't you eaten? That's all the force you have?"

Yama, infuriated, thrashed like a North-east Blind Bear, pounding on his own chest loudly with a 'thump thump' sound.

Li Chen's gaze was icy, and he fiercely shouted:

"Now, why don't you take a punch from me?"

Before his words fell, his knuckles cracked, wrapped in a whirl of thunder and lightning.

"Thunderbolt Fist!"

Yama was petrified, instinctively throwing a punch to block.

"Boom!"

With Li Chen's punch, it was like thunder exploding, instantly piercing through Yama's chest, leaving a horrifying bloody hole.

Yama's eyes bulged like copper bells, their life fading in an instant. He looked down at his bloody chest, let out a hopeless scream, and then fell to the ground with a thud.

With Clan Leader Yama dead, the Mammoth Tribe immediately fell into chaos, as if they were dragons without a head.

However, they did not crumble because of this; after all, the Totem Mammoth Giant Beast had not abandoned them, nor the Mammoth Tribe.

As long as they could save the Totem, there was still a chance for their tribe to turn the tide!

Thus, since Clan Leader Yama was killed by a punch from Li Chen, these brave warriors of the Mammoth Tribe, each one like moths to a flame, rushed forward in a frenzy.

Fortunately, the defensive formation laid out by Li Chen was strong enough to withstand their waves of fierce attacks.

However, their fearlessness in face of death also exceeded Li Chen's expectations.

And Li Chen's defensive formation was hastily built, with many flaws and vulnerabilities.

These gaps and vulnerabilities were initially negligible, but under the relentless attacks of hundreds and thousands of Mammoth Tribe's brave warriors, they grew wider and wider. It was like a ship battered by the stormy Pacific Ocean, already trembling in the wind and rain, on the brink of capsize.

"Chen, they're about to break through. What do we do?"

Lian Hongshang's pretty face turned slightly pale, her clear eyes filled with worried ripples.

Li Chen gently took Lian Hongshang's somewhat icy hand, smiled at her, and said, "It's fine, they are just a bunch of ants. Let me deal with them!"

Lian Hongshang gazed at Li Chen with affectionate eyes, her eyes smiling as she vigorously nodded her head.

"Alright, but be careful!"

Li Chen smiled, said nothing more, and strode forward.

"Whoosh!"

The Seven-star Dragon Abyss hung in mid-air, its blade emitting a chilling cold light, making people shiver without the cold.

"Whoever is not afraid of death, come at me!"

Li Chen shouted loudly, then fiercely raised his sword, swinging it in the air and whisking forth a myriad of radiance.

In that moment, his entire body seemed to merge with the Seven-star Dragon Abyss in his hands.

"Three Thousand Sword Formation, rise!"

Without the Dragon Soul as the Formation Eye, Li Chen used his body as a sword to support the operation of the entire Sword Formation.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

In an instant, three thousand Magic Swords burst forth from the ground like eagles striking the sky.

"Puchi!"

"Puchi!"

"Puchi!"

...

A group of Barbarian warriors were focused solely on Li Chen and failed to notice what was beneath their feet. Completely undefended, they were stabbed through, their blood gushing out and dyeing the entire sky red.

Li Chen, incarnated as the Death God, turned the Seven-star Dragon Abyss into a scythe that brought death and slaughter wherever it went.

In no time, the Barbarian warriors fell like chopped-down saplings, corpses sprawled everywhere, with blood forming rivers.

Every sight was a purgatory of the Human World.

With this Sword Array, Li Chen deterred the entire field, plunging the Mammoth Tribe into utter chaos like a collapsing mountain.

And this became the last straw that broke the Mammoth Giant Beast.

Though firmly entwined by Jiao Long and unable to escape, being a genuine fifth-level Demon Beast made it no easy feat for Jiao Long to devour.

With one punch, Li Chen killed the Clan Leader Yama and took control of the Sword Array, securing victory and instilling a mortal fear of death into the once invincible Mammoth Giant Beast.

Just as it relaxed its guard, Jiao Long suddenly tightened its body and coiled around it fiercely, suffocating the beast and denying it any chance of self-destruction.

Seizing the opportunity, Jiao Long opened its massive maw and began the true performance of a python swallowing an elephant!

Such a terrifying scene shocked all the Barbarians from all tribes to their cores, making them kneel in worship.

Under the covert manipulation of Li Chen and Lian Hongshang, the Azure Dragon Tribe swept through the Barbaric North like a hot knife through butter.

The remnants of the Four Great Tribes—the Divine Turtle Tribe, the Mammoth Tribe, the Fierce Tiger Tribe, and the Black Wolf Tribe—all merged into the Azure Dragon Tribe. Many other medium and small tribes also succumbed to the wind of change and came to submit.

As a result, the Azure Dragon Tribe became a super tribe virtually overnight, with a vast territory spanning thousands of miles and a total population approaching one million.

And Jiao Long became the unique Totem of the super tribe, its status unassailably high.

Li Chen and Lian Hongshang thus became the left and right Divine Envoys of this second-rate being.

To this, Li Chen felt somewhat depressed. He was clearly the master of Jiao Long, but now his status had been ironically reversed.

"Chen, now that the Azure Dragon Tribe has unified the Barbaric North, where should we go next? Are we going to stay here forever?"

Lian Hongshang blinked her big eyes and turned to Li Chen.

Seeing some disarray in Lian Hongshang's hair, Li Chen used his fingers as a comb, tidying it for her simply.

"Hongshang, where do you want to go?"

"Wherever you go, I'll go!"

Lian Hongshang smiled sweetly, completely embodying the devoted and supportive wife.

The power structures of the Barbaric North had been essentially consolidated by him.

The Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures amassed by the five tribes over hundreds of years had also all fallen into his hands. There was no longer any significance in staying here.

Moreover, as he knew, the Barbaric land was divided into five major regions, with the Northern Territory being nothing more than an abandoned homeland to the Barbarians.

At the very center of the Barbaric land lies the Barbaric Divine Domain, the origin and the most formidable territory of the entire Barbarian race. More than half of the Barbaric Thirteen Super Tribes, seven to be exact, are located there.

Then there's the Southern Barbaric Wilderness, bordering the Demon Clan and serving as the second holy land of the Barbarians.

Thirdly, there are the Eastern and Western Barbaric Wildernesses, whose forces are roughly equal. To the east of the Eastern Wilderness is the sea, and to the west of the Western Wilderness is a desert.

Last is the Northern Territory, the ancient battlefield of the Human Clan vs. Barbarians, which is separated from the three huge Immortal Islands—Penglai, Yingzhou, and Taoist Abbot—only by Dragon River, too close for comfort, as it's often subject to attacks by the Human Clan's masters.

Therefore, over the three thousand years since the great war, many Barbarian tribes have successively migrated southward. Otherwise, it would not be the turn for medium and small tribes such as the Divine Turtle and Azure Dragon to dominate and reign supreme in a corner of the Northern Territory.

Even after being consolidated, the Azure Dragon Tribe could not rival the Barbarian Thirteen Super Tribes and could at best be considered a second-rate tribe.

Clearly, Li Chen had no intentions of becoming the overlord of the entire Barbaric land. With the current state of the Azure Dragon Tribe, it could only reign supreme in this weakest Northern Territory and did not possess the power to continue expanding southward.

At least, not for now.

After a moment of contemplation, Li Chen planned to pick a day to leave the Barbaric North and head for Penglai Immortal Island!

After hearing Li Chen's thoughts, Lian Hongshang nodded in agreement.

But then she suddenly thought of a critical question.

What about Jiao Long? Should they bring it along?

This second-rate being was now the common Totem worshipped by millions of Barbarians across all tribes in the Northern Territory.

If Li Chen took it with him, it would inevitably lead to strong opposition from the Barbarians.

If not handled carefully, it could even lead to a fallout, nullifying all previous efforts and leaving all work unfinished...
