"Heh heh, truly ignorant. Destroying a few Immortal Emperors of the Southern Domain is a small matter, but they dared to slay the Patrol Heavens Generals. This is simply playing with fire. The Great Han human race is still aiming to ascend to the Heavenly Court. Heh heh heh, the destruction of the human race is not far off." In the Eastern Domain of the Immortal Realm, at the Zhaoyao Palace, Emperor Tian Chi sat cross-legged, his expression cold and emotionless. On his right palm was an unhealed wound. A few days ago, the Zhaoyao Palace had pressured the Danxue Mountain, and he had lost a move to Emperor Tai Xu, suffering no small amount of pain.
"The Great Han human race is truly too monstrous, their speed of rise is too terrifying. On previous occasions, Danxue Mountain held them back. This time, they have offended supreme giant forces, and their luck should be at its end. Should we participate?" On the other side, Emperor Kuang Shen, with a triumphant smile, spoke in a rather cold tone filled with killing intent. A five-colored feather floated in his palm, emitting a powerful imperial aura.
"Destroying six third-class Patrol Heavens Generals is equivalent to challenging supreme giant forces. This time, Danxue Mountain likely won't stand up for the Great Han Holy Court. We don't need to get involved in this muddy water. With the supreme giant forces, and the Bomen Palace and Sun-Moon Heavenly Court in the Southern Domain, it's enough. We should focus and find a suitable time to uproot this tumor called Danxue Mountain," Emperor Zhaoyao said calmly. He raised his right palm towards the sky, and a phantom of a "xīng xīng" sat atop it, deducing his martial arts. Sixty-five imperial destinies pulsed with radiance behind him!
"What Zhaoyao said is indeed correct. The Great Han Holy Court is bound to be destroyed. With the Sky Horn Ant clan involved, even if we went, we wouldn't gain anything. There's no need to travel to the Southern Domain." Emperor Tian Chi lowered his head, remained silent for a long time, then spoke. His gaze shifted to the solemn-faced Emperor Kuang Shen. After a long while, Emperor Kuang Shen nodded and closed his eyes.
...
Southern Domain of the Immortal Realm.
Sun-Moon Heavenly Court, Shenyang Palace.
The Sun-Moon Heavenly Court, which once had four emperors appear, now had only Emperor Tai Yin, who controlled thirty-four imperial destinies, supporting this massive force. Emperor Tai Yin, sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, had a gloomy expression. Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and two streams of blood-red light shot into the sky.
Boom!
That area of space tore apart, and a powerful savage aura surged out. Two blood-red lights, like eyes, scanned the Shenyang Palace. Faintly, these two blood-red flashes seemed to indicate a massive figure approaching.
"Tai Yin, the Great Han has bullied you to your doorstep, yet you still have the inclination to sit in the Shenyang Palace and cultivate." The figure emerged from space. It was Emperor Zun Hai, the ruler of the Dao Hai Alliance. He had emerged from the ancient star path, looking at Emperor Tai Yin of the Sun-Moon Heavenly Court with a cold sneer. Around Emperor Zun Hai's waist hung an arm, devoid of blood and life.
"Zun Hai! Humph! Why aren't you properly hiding as a turtle in the ancient star path, and instead come to my Shenyang Palace?" Emperor Tai Yin looked at Emperor Zun Hai who had emerged from the ancient star path. Upon hearing Zun Hai's words, his face was filled with killing intent. He glanced at Emperor Zun Hai and then closed his eyes.
"Cheng Ze, since you're here, why are you still hiding in the depths of space?" Emperor Zun Hai turned his head and looked to the west. His eyes shifted slightly, and a terrifying blood-red aura seemed ready to roar out at any moment.
Boom!
The space targeted by Emperor Zun Hai suddenly cracked like glass. A relatively gentle aura, like that of Mother Earth, emanated with a soft radiance, enveloping the entire Shenyang Palace. Emperor Tai Yin, who had closed his eyes, slowly raised his head, opened his calm imperial eyes, and looked at the figure emerging from space.
"Cheng Ze!" Emperor Tai Yin spoke, his gaze sweeping over the figure.
Cheng Ze!
The second giant of the Bomen Palace, controlling thirty-two imperial destinies, a contemporary strong expert of Emperor Tai Yin. Their paths to cultivation were once filled with constant strife and deep enmity.
"Cheng Ze, why have you come here?" Emperor Tai Yin's expression changed slightly.
"Tai Yin, you are still so impetuous."
"The Great Han Holy Court, after all, is in our Southern Domain of the Immortal Realm. Decades ago, the Great Han ascended to become the fifth major power in the south, replacing the authority of Emperor Xu Wu."
"The strong prey on the weak! This matter, my Bomen Palace originally did not wish to interfere, but a few days ago, the Great Han Holy Court's killing intent was too heavy. They devoured the territory of the Dao Hai Alliance, annihilated several Immortal Emperors, and even Emperor Tian Bo of my Bomen Palace perished on the Great Han's border. Now that this matter has developed to this point, if my Bomen Palace does not step forward, will it not be laughed at by all races and beings in the world!" The gentle Emperor Cheng Ze spoke with a strong killing intent, which was completely out of sync with his demeanor, making him appear rather uncomfortable.
"Cheng Ze, I see you've come for that Kunpeng Body Art!" Emperor Tai Yin narrowed his eyes, sizing up Cheng Ze. This person appeared gentle and steady, but when he fought, he was ten thousand times more ruthless than himself, especially considering Cheng Ze's many sneaky tricks.
"Tai Yin, it seems you've been residing in Shenyang Palace for too long and are out of touch with worldly affairs." Emperor Zun Hai smiled slightly and spoke again. "The Sky Horn Ant clan has intervened. With them involved, do you think any of us three can keep that Kunpeng Body Art? Let alone the three of us, even Emperor Qian Men would fear to entertain such a thought!"
"Since that is the case, what does your Bomen Palace intend?" Emperor Tai Yin frowned slightly, looking at Emperor Cheng Ze and speaking. With the Sky Horn Ant clan intervening, the Kunpeng Body Art was likely out of the question. However, the Great Han was not simple either; the existence of several incredibly powerful beings suggested their cultivation methods, or perhaps their bloodlines, were extraordinary.
"I only want back the territory that belongs to my Dao Hai Alliance. I will not participate in anything else," Emperor Zun Hai stated.
"Since that is the case," Emperor Cheng Ze spoke. He looked at Emperor Tai Yin and said softly, "How about we split the territory of the Great Han Holy Court between our two factions? However, we cannot let Zun Hai come here for nothing. The resources from destroying the Great Han Holy Court will also have a share for you, Zun Hai!"
"What Cheng Ze said is good. The Dao Hai Alliance was annihilated by the Great Han Holy Court and suffered heavy losses. A bit more resources will help you establish yourself quickly." Emperor Tai Yin's eyes flickered slightly. Emperor Cheng Ze looked at Emperor Tai Yin with a smile, but in Emperor Zun Hai's eyes, it was extremely uncomfortable. The reason he only wanted back the territory of the Dao Hai Alliance was to weaken the vigilance of Tai Yin and himself.
Once the Great Han Holy Court was destroyed, only his Dao Hai Alliance, Bomen Palace, and Sun-Moon Heavenly Court would remain in the entire Southern Domain. With the Great Han out of the picture, it was likely they would target him next. Zun Hai forced a smile and remained silent. Emperor Cheng Ze glanced at Emperor Tai Yin, turned, and walked into the depths of space. Not long after, Emperor Zun Hai also departed. After the two Immortal Emperors left, Emperor Tai Yin's eyes were filled with killing intent, and the flashing red light turned towards the direction of the Bomen Palace.
