1568 The Escaped Immortal's True Appearance

However, as much as Kelan wanted Yuan to defeat the Immortal, he still expected Yuan to lose the fight.

"Although you've been doing good so far, the Immortal still has one more trick up their sleeve. This trick is what differentiates and truly separates mortals and immortals." Kelan muttered after seeing how much Yuan was dominating the Immortal.

'This is outrageous! Why does such a mortal exist in a place like the Fourth Heaven?! If only I weren't injured by the pursuers,I could've killed him in seconds instead of being ridiculed like this!' The Immortal cursed inwardly.

They had been chased nonstop since escaping the Nine Heavens Eternal Grotto and were injured in the process. If it weren't for their injury, Yuan wouldn't have been able to push the Immortal so far.

'This mortal… should not exist! His existence is extremely dangerous! Even if I have to sacrifice my life in the process, I will get rid of him!'

Several hours later, the Immortal's aura suddenly changed, causing their surroundings to freeze.

From spiritual energy to the Purple Sea, everything was still, as though time itself had frozen.

'This pressure!' Yuan halted his movements after sensing this familiar aura.

He excitedly smiled and said, "It's about time you use Immortal Qi. I was wondering when you'd use it."

"I hate to admit this, but to force an immortal like me to use Immortal Qi on you, a mortal, is an unprecedented feat that I must respect."

As the immortal spoke, the mist around them began dissipating, revealing their true appearance for the first time.

Yuan's eyes widened with surprise when he saw the Immortal, who was much smaller than he'd anticipated.

"A child?" Yuan muttered in a daze as his gaze stared at the little boy floating before him.

The Immortal's true form was revealed to be that of a small boy, seemingly no older than ten years. Of course, the immortal wasn't a real child but merely bore the appearance of one. Adding to the strangeness, a short white tail protruded from his back.

"As a show of respect, I shall fight you in my true form," said the Immortal.

"You… you're not human?" Yuan asked him with a strange frown.

"Do I look human to you? I am of the proud Misty Fox race." The Immortal responded in a boastful tone.

"Haa…" Yuan sighed with a genuinely disappointed look on his face. He'd gone out of his way to fight this immortal because he thought they were human.

However, now that the Immortal is revealed to be a beast, it would no longer count toward his Unique Quest, even if he were to defeat the Immortal.

The Immortal misunderstood Yuan's reason for disappointment and roared, "Are you looking down on me because of my appearance?! This is why I refuse to show myself!"

Despite saying such words, the Immortal had to reveal himself mainly due to his injury. Concealing himself required a significant amount of energy, and he wouldn't be able to maintain it for much longer if he also had to use Immortal Qi on top of that in such a state.
