Imperial God Emperor

1019 - Age of Imperial Warfare



Chapter 1019 Age of Imperial Warfare

 

The Young Lord of the Sinful Pit had been surprise attacked.

And by none other the [Fatally Beautiful Fairy], Jiang Xiaohan.

In the same fashion as the Greater One Spiritual Master’s method of devouring the essence, blood, and yuan qi of others, Jiang Xiaohan waved her hands, causing a crevice to form on each of her fine, soft palms before two giant creatures which resembled silver pythons burst out of them and bit the heavily-wounded Young Lord all over without giving him any room to struggle. Exerting great strength, they tore him into two pieces which they each swallowed one of.

The whole process was very much the picture of two pythons having a meal.

The difference from the Greater One Spiritual Master’s devouring ability was that Jiang Xiaohan could devour living beings and not just dead beings.

Moreover, she was devouring an expert of the Young Lord of the Sinful Pit’s ilk.

Although the Young Lord had been heavily wounded by Ye Qingyu’s [Great Light Dragon Punch], he remained capable of insta-killing a Great Saint. Under Jiang Xiaohan’s magical devouring power, however, he was like a prey being taken by a predator and could put up absolutely no resistance before completely vanishing from the face of this world.

It was at this moment that Ye Qingyu suddenly had an idea of where Jiang Xiaohan's peerless cultivation originated from.

“Hehe, today’s gains ain’t too bad. Thank you for assisting me, Third Deputy.”

A smile appeared on Jiang Xiaohan's delicate and beautiful face as she licked the corners of her mouth with her tongue just like a teenage girl would do after eating. Every one of her actions and expressions looked utmost enchanting and harmless, and even a tad regretful. Like a fading canvas, she gradually disappeared among the Void.

“Let’s battle again the next time we meet.”

Her voice reverberated among the Void.

Her vanishing technique was ingenious like no other.

Although Ye Qingyu wanted to stop her, he was unable to keep track of her movement and hold her back.

She thus vanished among the universe.

“This woman is frightening!”

“No matter how hard or crazy she’d worked, there’s no way she could’ve made such terrifying improvements in such a short time. While my own good fortune is already considered rare throughout all time, her increase in strength is something else. Perhaps it’s not just about the magical devouring technique. After all, the Greater One Spiritual Master’s foundation and martial accumulations were much deeper and older than hers, but his cultivation and battle strength are not up to hers… There must be bigger secrets about her.”

While thinking to himself, he issued a backpunch without turning his head.

In the distance, several surviving Dark Great Saints who had realized that the situation was becoming unfavorable and were thus fleeing frantically were instantly turned into muck by the [Great Light Dragon Punch].

The battle came to a complete end.

“It’s a pity that the Four Stars holy girl didn’t come. This woman of terrifying schemes would never appear in front of me without having absolute assurance. If she found out about my true cultivation through this battle, she’d definitely avoid me henceforth.”

Ye Qingyu was still thinking about the Four Stars holy girl.

He had long felt that this woman was a scourge whom he should have eliminated way back.

As he contemplated, his bodily yuan qi gradually regained calmness.

He withdrew from the five-inhibition state of the [Limitless Divine Way].

His spike in strength which enabled him to instantly suppress Jiang Xiaohan was naturally because he had worked up the [Limitless Divine Way].

Turning his body, he walked toward the fat man.

On the other side, Yang Wanqu was being so badly tortured by Li Shengyan that he was spitting bile.

As a result of some method being used by the plump elder, Yang Wanqu was wailing without end and completely resistanceless despite showing no apparent scars. At the same time, he disclosed everything he knew without concealing anything.

“To think this little fellow is a special envoy who used to command the Greater One army in the Clear River Domain.” Li Shengyan concluded his extortion and stood up. “Unfortunately, there’s still too little known… This fellow is useless now and may as well be killed. We still have other things we need to complete urgently.”

Hearing this, Yang Wanqu panickedly struggled and implored, “No, I beg you… I’ll do anything you say as long as you don’t kill me, I… I don’t want to die just yet.”

The plump fatty guffawed. “Rascal, weren’t you unafraid of death? Didn’t you hoot about going down with us? Why are you now as scared as a little kid, huh? Hahaha!” He recalled that while he was being tortured by Yang Wanqu, the latter had acted unafraid of death, yet was wailing like a dog now that the situation had reversed. By comparing the two scenes, he thus felt a great sense of achievement and delight.

The latter lowered his head and pleaded non-stop.

Ye Qingyu asked, “Since you’re a special envoy who once commanded the Greater One army, why don’t you tell us how you all breached the mountain gate of the Immortal God Emperor Sect during the battle that day?”

Hearing this question, Yang Wanqu immediately knew that he still had a little value and thus hurriedly replied without bargaining, “Alright, I’ll tell you everything… The Immortal God Emperor Sect indeed possesses a lot of intriguing and frightening tricks, and is protected by three pinnacle Great Saint old monsters who are said to be four thousand years old and nearing the end of their lifespans. These monsters have sealed themselves in divine-level origin crystals for a long time and only emerged during the battle that day. This kind of battle strength nearly destroyed our set-up, but unfortunately for them, it wasn’t enough...”

Hearing this, Ye Qingyu sighed inwardly.

He finally knew why Nan Tieyi and the Immortal God Emperor Sect were so confident about withstanding the Greater One army.

It turned out that this was because of three pinnacle Great Saint ancestors.

Under the conditions at that time, this kind of battle strength could indeed be considered unparalleled.

After all, for countless years, a Saint would already be considered a top-level being in the Clear River Domain, let alone a pinnacle Great Saint.

However, the Immortal God Emperor Sect was destined to be destroyed.

This was because they did not anticipate the descent of the Chaos Demon Emperor’s Reincarnation Hall on Divine Emperor Peak.

They more so did not predict that a Quasi-emperor would appear in the Wei River Mountain Range.

Against a Quasi-emperor, a pinnacle Great Saint would collapse at the first blow regardless of strength.

“Which Quasi-emperor was it that attacked that day?” Ye Qingyu asked.

After a brief hesitation, Yang Wanqu replied, “I’d heard that it was a newly-emerging Quasi-emperor of the Four Stars Sect.”

Ye Qingyu nodded.

This answer was what he expected.

The Four Star Sect’s wild ambitions could be seen from the holy girl’s way of doing things.

It must be known that the Four Stars holy girl had nearly wiped out all of the Heaven’s pridelings who had entered the Door of Darkness in the 18th district of the Black Demon Abyss, including the Little Princess of the Black Demon Race and the Celestial Phoenix Maiden. Without her protection, which he obtained by becoming her lackey while in the 18th district, Yang Wanqu would probably have become a pile of bones lying in the 18th district by now. His becoming of a special envoy who commanded the Greater One army was definitely aided by the holy girl’s influence. It was thereby possible to deduce that the Quasi-emperor involved was most likely to be an emerging Quasi-emperor from the Four Stars Sect.

The Four Stars Sect!

Ye Qingyu committed this name to his memory.

To think that this force, once a mainstay of the Human Race, has degenerated so badly.

This is so heart-wrenching.

By summing up news from various sources, it could be seen that this Human Race sect was already in cahoots with that [Camp] which was hiding in the dark.

“Hold it, elder bro. We don’t have the time to ask about these things. The situation is critical.” Seeing that Ye Qingyu appeared interested in getting to the bottom of the matter, Li Shengyan hurriedly stopped him. “Why don’t we set out first and ask along the way? I’d already asked enough earlier. We have to go help Ancestor, who may be in danger.”

[Quasi-emperor Xiaofei] is in danger?

Ye Qingyu was taken aback.

What exactly happened while I was self-isolating during this period of time?

The million-year-old soul told me to prepare to stage a rescue operation, could I already have missed out?

That would be problematic.

At that time, all he wanted to do was to break the seal of the pill furnace and obtain the precious treasure within so that he could put up some resistance when facing a Quasi-emperor. He did not expect that, within the sealed space of the [Cloud Top Cauldron], what he felt to be one or two days of time was actually several dozen days in the outer world. When he reemerged from within, he ran into the hunted plump fatty even before he had understood the situation.

“What exactly is going on?” he asked.

Looking worried, the fatty replied, “Something happened during this time. We’d better rush to Capital Sky Peak, where Ancestor and the Quasi-emperors of many races are gathered. An imperial battle has started. It will decide the fate of every race… Hurry, let’s get on the road and I’ll slowly explain things along the way.” Although he was usually merry and not too trustworthy, he was extremely attentive to anything related to Ancestor Xiaofei. Such devotion was indeed hard to find.

“But, even if we rush there, what difference can we make?” Ye Qingyu, who was still preoccupied with another matter, paused to form a plan before casually yet deliberately provoking the fatty by saying, “A battle among Quasi-emperors will destroy the world and perhaps even the entire domain. Both of us are but insignificant insects in front of Quasi-emperors, so what can we do by rushing there? We probably can’t change the situation.”

The fatty went into a momentary daze.

Straightening his neck, he then said, “This… No matter what, it would be fine by me to die fighting alongside a Human Race Quasi-emperor.”

After speaking, he thought for a while longer.

His expression suddenly became grave and serious like never before.

“No, wrong, I’m wrong… What you said makes a lot of sense… Yes, I understand now, you’re right that we’ll just be courting death by going. Why don’t I go alone while you stay behind… Indeed, you mustn’t go there in any case. Your talents are unparalleled and require nothing but time. If the Human Race was to be weakened as a result of today’s imperial battle, any chance of a future resurgence will rest on you… Dammit, I nearly made a huge mistake by asking you to follow me there.”

At this point, the fatty was visibly shaken while his complexion had become pale-white.

He apparently believed his idea to be very right, and was feeling near-uncontrollable bouts of fear having almost accidentally caused the death of the person who would lead the Human Race’s resurgence.

“Hahahaha...” Ye Qingyu guffawed.

He raised a hand and completely sealed Yang Wanqu within the [Cloud Top Cauldron], knowing that keeping the latter alive would be valuable if he was to deal with the Black Moon Immortal Palace and remove this cancerous force from the face of this world.

“Don’t talk nonsense, we shall go together.” He lifted the ffatty and soared into the air.

“But...” The latter still wanted to try convincing him.

He shook his head, saying, “You’re wrong. If the imperial battle this time will truly decide the fate of the Human Race, then we should fight alongside His Highness [Quasi-emperor Xiaofei] and live or die together with him. If we don’t win, darkness will shroud this world and the Vast Thousand Domains will degenerate into a playground for evil spirits. What chance of resurgence will there then be? Blood and fire have already befallen, and only the brave will prevail in this unavoidable confrontation. Even an inch of cowering will result in everlasting disastrous consequences. Let’s talk no more and prepare to battle.”

Ye Qingyu spoke these words with resolve and decisiveness, bringing to mind a divine sword unsheathing with a clanging noise and a long sword qi cry.

Although the fatty still wanted to say something, he was no longer able to disagree with Ye Qingyu.

“Alright, war or bust. We brothers shall go together!” Feeling that the blood all over his body was burning, he shouted, “Capital Sky Peak is in the Wei River Mountain Range to the southwest… Hahaha, who would’ve thought that I will actually be able to fight alongside Ancestor during this lifetime, and more so will be fighting alongside you, Elder Brother Ye Qingyu. Haha, I’m so fortunate!”

The duo turned into flowing light and traveled toward Capital Sky Peak at the fastest speed possible.

An age of imperial warfare had arrived, beginning with a magnificent prelude.
