World's Strongest Martial Warrior

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaoqing's eyes narrowed in contemplation.    

The Evergreen Immortal Palace and the Past Life Immortal Palace had enlisted a Primordial Chaos Immortal Venerable known as Red Flame, who had surprisingly wounded a senior Primordial Chaos Immortal from the Longevity Immortal Palace.    

Had it not been for the timely intervention of Chasing Sun Immortal Venerable, the Longevity Immortal Palace might have been decimated by the combined forces of the Evergreen and Past Life Immortal Palaces.    

Even with Chasing Sun Immortal Venerable's assistance, they managed only a safe retreat. For now, the Longevity Immortal Palace had no choice but to take refuge within the heavily fortified palace that she had secured.    

It stood to reason that...    

Now would be the opportune moment for the Evergreen Immortal Palace and the Past Life Immortal Palace to obliterate the Longevity Immortal Palace once and for all. So why would Lu Changqing choose this critical juncture to leave?    

"Could it be that... Big Brother Peter Parker has returned?"    

A sudden realization sparked a gleam in Lu Xiaoqing's eyes.    

Decades earlier, when the Immortal Palace was under siege by the Evergreen and Past Life Immortal Palaces, it was Peter Parker who came to her aid, turning the tide in their favor.    

Yet...    

At that time, Peter Parker had been exiled from the Longevity Immortal Domain by a clone of Lu Changqing.    

Despite this, Lu Xiaoqing never wavered in her belief that Peter Parker would come back.    

Lu Changqing's abrupt departure from the Evergreen Immortal Palace suggested that something significant had transpired within its walls.    

And the most likely catalyst for such a disturbance was the return of Peter Parker to the Longevity Immortal Domain.    

With this thought, a fierce determination glinted in Lu Xiaoqing's eyes.    

The circumstances surrounding Lu Changqing's exit presented a golden opportunity for the Immortal Courts—one that Lu Xiaoqing was not about to let slip by.    

"Summon all the elders of the Longevity Immortal Palace to the main hall for an immediate meeting."    

No sooner had Lu Xiaoqing issued the command than she transformed into a streak of green light, disappearing without a trace.    

...    

Green Wood Immortal Mountain.    

After vanquishing Lu Changqing's clone and laying waste to the realm of the Longevity Immortal Palace, Peter Parker did not rush to depart. Instead, he lingered, a silent sentinel in the skies above Greenwood Immortal Mountain.    

Aware that Lu Changqing's true form would undoubtedly sense the demise of his clone, he knew all he had to do was wait for Lu Changqing's return. Eliminating Lu Changqing would halve the threat posed by the Longevity Palace. Then, he could join forces with Lu Xiaoqing to topple the Longevity Immortal Palace and resolve the crisis in the Longevity Immortal Realm. Despite Lu Changqing's formidable power, he was now capable of contending with the Chaos Origin Immortal Venerable. With his own strength and the aid of the Immortal King Corpse Puppet, the troubles in the Longevity Immortal Domain would soon be over.    

Peter Parker's vigil was brief. In the time it takes an incense stick to burn, a figure pierced through the spatial zone, confronting Peter Parker. The newcomer's arrival unleashed an overwhelming immortal aura that enveloped the surroundings.    

Peter Parker greeted the figure with a slight smile. "Lu Changqing, you've finally come back. I've been waiting for you for quite some time."    

"Peter Parker, it really is you!" Lu Changqing looked up, his gaze filled with a storm of rage and murderous intent directed at Peter Parker. The instant he felt his clone's destruction, Lu Changqing had suspected this elusive foe. Yet, what he hadn't anticipated was the astonishing growth of this young upstart, who in mere decades had gained the strength to annihilate his clone and lay waste to the Evergreen Immortal Palace.    

Peter Parker had previously infiltrated the palace, looting it and leaving it in ruins. Now, by destroying his clone, Peter Parker had obliterated the palace entirely, erasing all of Lu Changqing's laborious efforts. His fury was undeniable.    

"Peter Parker, you've obliterated my clone and my palace. I will not rest until you are dead!" Lu Changqing's roar thundered across the cosmos. He then slowly raised his hand, and with a mere gesture, the energies of heaven and earth within thousands of miles began to converge into his palm.    

The mere sight of that palm sent a shiver of fear through the crowd below. Immortal Supremacy Primordius truly lived up to his reputation as the last of the three Immortal Venerables—his power was indeed formidable. Should Lu Changqing's palm make contact, anything it touched would likely be reduced to nothingness in an instant.    

Yet, as Lu Changqing unleashed his devastating attack, Peter Parker remained unflustered. His eyes blazed with a fierce determination, and in his grip, a broken sword materialized.    

"Lu Changqing, if I can destroy your clone, I can certainly defeat you," Peter declared. "You may be a respected elder of the Longevity Immortal Palace, but you've chosen the path of a traitor. Today, I shall assist the Longevity Immortal King in purging the sect!"    

With those words, Peter swung his sword, sending tremors through the heavens and the earth. A dazzling beam of light erupted from the broken blade, piercing the sky. It sliced through the void in a flash, colliding with Lu Changqing's descending palm.    

Boom!    

The impact was cataclysmic, as if heralding the apocalypse. A vast black hole ripped through the fabric of space.    

Despite the ferocity of their clash, the two combatants in the void remained unaffected. Lu Changqing, undeterred, moved his palm once more, and in the blink of an eye, nine palm prints emerged, each one drawing upon the surging power of the cosmos.    

The next moment, at Lu Changqing's command, the nine palm prints rocketed towards Peter Parker with an explosive force.    

Peter, however, was the picture of composure. With a casual wave of his hand, a figure burst through the spatial divide, charging at the nine palm prints with an awe-inspiring might. This figure was none other than the Immortal King Corpse Puppet.    

As an expert of the Immortal King Realm, the Corpse Puppet's strength had grown in tandem with Peter's own advancements. With Peter's cultivation now at the quasi-primordial epoch Immortal Venerable level, the Corpse Puppet's power had surged, matching the formidable might it was renowned for.    

Peter was acutely aware that Lu Changqing was no ordinary Chaos Origin Immortal Sovereign. He was a seasoned warrior, with a cultivation base that had reached the late stages, if not the very pinnacle, of the Chaos Origin Immortal realm.    

Having reached the pinnacle of the Primordial Immortal realm and mastered the Chaos Origin Law, his combat prowess was on par with any standard Chaos Origin Immortal Venerable. Yet, even with such formidable abilities, he found it challenging to overpower a being like Lu Changqing using only his own strength.    

Acknowledging this, Peter Parker didn't hesitate to summon the Immortal King Corpse Puppet. Realizing he couldn't handle the fight solo, he opted for a two-on-one strategy with the Corpse Puppet by his side.    

The Corpse Puppet, whose fighting capabilities rivaled those of a Chaos Origin Immortal Sovereign, would certainly make it significantly easier to subdue Lu Changqing.    

Boom! Boom! Boom! The Corpse Puppet sliced through the opposition effortlessly, like a hot knife through butter. Nine massive palm prints disintegrated with a crash, leaving chaos in the surrounding void.    

"Could this puppet truly possess strength comparable to the Immortal Supremacy Primordius?" Lu Changqing's gaze intensified as he watched the figure that demolished his nine palm prints, his expression growing increasingly grim.
