Chapter 1258: Chapter 789: The Intruder Chapter 1258: Chapter 789: The Intruder “Why do you say that?”
Hearing the elder’s response, the creature wearing the Purple Gold Crown couldn’t help but ask in surprise.
It had been a long ti since it had exhibited such emotion.
“Our opponent is not ordinary. He was able to rise against the currents in the Age of Doom and achieve the status of a Quasi-Emperor. His will and thods are not to be underestimated,” Emperor Cang slowly said. “Moreover, if he truly intends to hide, where in this vast universe could not serve as his sanctuary? The Boundary Sea, vast as it is, is not an absolute safe haven.”
Upon these words, a flash of unusual light passed through the creature’s purple eyes, clearly agreeing with Emperor Cang’s analysis. However, it imdiately continued, “Precisely because of this, we need to be even more cautious with our strategizing. If we can induce him to step into a trap of his own accord, perhaps we can avoid a lot of trouble.”
“A trap?” Emperor Cang’s eyebrows raised slightly, obviously intrigued by the suggestion. “How do you plan to set it up?”
“Entice him to go to the Boundary Sea on his own…”
“Only there can you and I truly appear.”
“Even if the opponent is outstanding, under our combined efforts, escape from certain death will be difficult. If absolutely necessary, we can awaken the Feather Emperor from his slumber. No Quasi-Emperor can survive the assault of three Quasi-Emperors. The one before didn’t manage it, and none will in the future.”
“I’m afraid that will be difficult to achieve,” Emperor Cang shook his head.
“Why do you say so?”
“My projection fought with him briefly, but he didn’t pursue. This indicates that he is very cautious. Anyone else who had discovered the source would find it impossible to remain indifferent!”
The creature wearing the Purple Gold Crown fell silent for a mont before speaking, “But what if we do the opposite of what he expects, and create an opportunity that seems harmless but is actually fraught with lethal danger? For example, a clue to a Secret Realm that he believes sufficient to help him break through to the true Emperor Realm.”
“No matter how cautious he is, he should be unable to resist the temptation of the Emperor Realm!”
“That might be worth a try,” Emperor Cang nodded.
“But aside from this, we should make so other preparations…”
“Oh? Like what?”
The creature with the Purple Gold Crown furrowed its brows, clearly surprised by Emperor Cang’s attitude.
“Find out his true strength.”
“Emperor Cang, when did you beco so rciful and cautious?” The creature wearing the Purple Gold Crown asked with slight astonishnt.
They only needed to lure him into the Boundary Sea, and then join forces to suppress him. That would be enough.
After all, what is the use in knowing the details of a dead man?
“It is not rcy, but wisdom,” Emperor Cang said, shaking his head lightly.
Although it was only a probing skirmish, with my True Body not arriving, one must understand that the Black Shadow I sent embodied nearly eighty percent of my power. It was indeed entangled for a long ti, and those Immortal Kings were indeed formidable, but realistically, it should not have drained so much of my strength.
The Black Shadow, almost at its full state, was directly shattered by that great hand, and the overwhelming force of the blow was beyond my comprehension.
After all, we are Quasi-Emperors. At this level, victory or defeat is not readily decided. Even if it were to take hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years, it would not be surprising.
The Quasi-Emperor who once stepped into the dam battled with us for over three million years, and it was only after we joined hands that we were able to suppress him, and then it took nearly half an era to erode his Primordial Spirit completely.
Yet the Fire of his Yuan Spirit still burns deep within the dam to this day.
Victory and defeat are not so easily attained.
Yet that seemingly mundane palm strike invoked in the thought of an insurmountable force.
“Emperor Hong, the Feather Emperor is still in slumber; with just your strength and mine, I fear we cannot suppress the Emperor from the Immortal Domain!” Emperor Cang said slowly.
His tone was mild, as if stating an established fact, and at the sa ti, it revealed the identity of the creature wearing the Purple Gold Crown.
Emperor Hong, the creator of the Origin Ancient Device from the Alien Territory and the Burial Domain.
The elder’s voice fell, and Emperor Hong couldn’t help but frown.
His expression didn’t show too obvious a change, but he was clearly puzzled.
As everyone knows, to reach the Quasi-Emperor level, all are among the few beings that have risen from countless eras, all exalted existences, unbeatable in the past eras.
Indeed.
While they couldn’t suppress their peers in single combat, in a two against one scenario, even the surprising Quasi-Emperor of yesteryear was suppressed.
“It’s different; this one is stronger!”
Emperor Cang shook his head, not waiting for Emperor Hong to speak before continuing.
Emperor Hong fell silent, his gaze opening and closing amidst the purple aura, processing this unbelievable information.
But he understood Emperor Cang, who would never speak without reason.
Combining this with the recent attack on the Immortal Domain, it seems likely that the forr had suffered a major setback there.
The Immortal Domain truly deserves to be the largest main domain of All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, now even guarded by a being of Quasi-Emperor level.
However, this ant that it was even more imperative to suppress the opposition.
Those who follow different paths cannot make plans together; keeping the opposition around would eventually beco a catastrophe.
“Right, what about the intruder?”
Emperor Hong suddenly changed the subject, asking.
“The intruder is still hiding in the Ancient Land, enveloped by the Fire of Yuan Spirit of that past Quasi-Emperor, unapproachable!”
The Fire of Yuan Spirit at a Quasi-Emperor level is almost like a normal cultivator’s self-destruction.
To any cultivator, no matter their realm, the Primordial Spirit is of utmost importance; it is both the source of power and foundation, and the keystone and bridge that connects to the Heavenly Road.
After reaching a certain level of strength, the physical body becos disposable; as long as the Primordial Spirit remains, even if the body is lted into slag, it can be restored in an instant.
Therefore.
Burning one’s Primordial Spirit should be considered the strongest thod at the Quasi-Emperor level.
Extinguishing it is beyond external thods; one can only wait for the Primordial Spirit to be completely burned out before the Fire of Yuan Spirit fades into darkness.
Thus, even the Three Dark Emperors dare not approach the Fire of Yuan Spirit of Quasi-Emperor level lightly; a single touch could cause severe damage to their foundation, although not an outright disaster—it’s a consequence they truly do not wish to face.
However, once the Primordial Spirit is ignited by the Heavenly Dao, the being itself would be silenced completely; thus, the Fire of Yuan Spirit does not attack actively but serves as a passive defense.
“It has been burning for so many great eras, counting the days, it should be about to extinguish!”
Emperor Cang spoke in a heavy tone.
“That one is also an oddity, throughout endless years, not only is he the first to seek the Ultimate Ancient Land, but he has also obtained the inheritance and divine protection of a Quasi-Emperor. Unless there are accidents, he should step into the Quasi-Emperor Realm, then it will be the day to sacrifice him.”
Emperor Hong’s brows relaxed.
Becoming an Emperor, so what? It was just right to sacrifice him.
