Chapter 1827: Immortal Envoy Expert

"Taken away by Teacher Kong?"

Zhang Xuan listened, his mind racing with excitement.

Able to plant talisman seeds in the father of Chenyong Emperor and others, his strength must have surpassed Blood Rebirth... For an expert of this level to be captured directly by Teacher Kong, just how strong was this Teacher of Ten Thousand Ages?

No wonder he could suppress the Spirit Race, keeping them from daring to move for tens of thousands of years. With such strength, indeed no one would dare resist.

"The talisman seeds are not terrifying. Even if these people are controlled and united, we can defeat them with all our might. But..."

Chenyong Emperor's eyes showed deep worry.

"You're worried about the origin of the talisman seeds?"

Zhang Xuan looked over.

This thing was manifested by the Immortal Envoy back then, indicating that ordinary Ancient Sages, even the three emperors, could not control it... Now he has taken it out and controlled these people. Where did it come from?

And what does it signify?

"Yes! The appearance of the talisman seeds means... the Immortal Envoy will also appear. This is a true Ancient Sage Fourth Heaven super expert, capable of shattering the void and emerging unscathed from spatial collapse... If such a person helps him, no matter how many of us there are, it will be useless!"

Chenyong Emperor said.

Ancient Sage Fourth Heaven and Third Heaven differ by only a minor realm, yet their life levels are completely different.

One can shatter the void and enter a higher plane, while the other can only remain here—this shows the gap.

Over tens of thousands of years, the Ancient Sages born among the Spirit Race and Human Race, though not as numerous as fish in a river, numbered at least hundreds or thousands... The strongest were comparable to him, at the peak of Blood Rebirth. Only Teacher Kong and the Ruthless One had reached the fourth realm.

No others, no matter how strong, could achieve it.

Precisely because the gap is so great, if such a person were to appear now, let alone seeking revenge, it would be hard to say whether they could even escape.

Reaching this realm cannot be countered by numbers alone.

"Don't worry for now. Since there are world rules restricting it, it won't be easy for him to descend. As long as we act quickly and kill the Spirit Emperor, there will be nothing to fear!"

The Ancient Sage Huoxu on the side snorted coldly.

He too feared the so-called Immortal Envoy expert, but... hadn't he appeared yet?

As long as he hadn't appeared, there was no need to worry. Once the Spirit Emperor was dead, who could do anything to them?

"Indeed!"

Understanding this reasoning, Chenyong Emperor's gaze turned solemn. He raised his hand, about to order everyone to attack together, when he saw Chenling Emperor looking over with a smile.

He had not stopped their telepathic conversation but had been watching all along.

He seemed already confident, as if deliberately letting panic spread among the enemy.

"Yong Emperor, do you know why you have fallen to this state?"

Chenling Emperor spoke.

Chenyong Emperor frowned.

"It's simple: you are not ruthless enough! Though my strength is inferior to yours, my heart is far more ruthless! I can sacrifice countless Spirit Race lives to heal my injuries, ally with the Human Race to besiege you, and even pledge my life and soul to another... all to make you die! But you cannot do that!"

Chenling Emperor sneered.

"You... what do you mean?" Chenyong Emperor's face darkened.

Sacrificing countless Spirit Race lives—he indeed could not do that. Allying with the Human Race to besiege his own race's emperor—he could not do that either...

He had his principles and could not be so ruthless...

He admitted these things, but what did he mean by pledging his life and soul?

"Nothing much. I just want to tell you... a true man must be ruthless. Since ancient times, those who achieve great things are not bound by trivialities. My heart is more ruthless than yours, so in the end, victory will be mine!"

With a laugh, Chenling Emperor waved his hand, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes: "Kill them all!"

"Yes!"

Whoosh!

The many Ancient Sages blocking the front, upon hearing the order, charged forward simultaneously, attacking Zhang Xuan and the others.

At the same time, Chenling Emperor pressed down with five fingers.

A tremendous pressure surged from his palm, and in an instant, the entire royal city under his control felt like the end of the world.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The many Saint Domain experts kneeling below had their heads explode simultaneously, blood splattering, flowing down the steps, dyeing the entire platform red again.

"You..."

Unexpectedly, this man was so ruthless, slaughtering tens of thousands of his own people again. Chenyong Emperor was going mad, his eyes reddening. Unable to hold back any longer, he charged straight at Chenling Emperor.

Though his injuries were severe, at this moment he could no longer care.

Only one thought filled his mind: either he dies, or... they die together!

Otherwise, under this man's leadership, the Spirit Race would only suffer devastation and might eventually face extinction...

"Your opponent is me!"

Whoosh!

Before he could reach the enemy, an Ancient Sage suddenly appeared before him. With a flick of his wrist, a long rod lashed straight at Chenyong Emperor.

It was one of the Ancient Sages infected with the talisman seeds.

This man's strength barely reached the Blood Rebirth realm, but Chenyong Emperor was already severely wounded. Fighting with all his might, the latter would find it difficult to win.

The rod moved like lightning, leaving afterimages in the air. The surrounding space rippled layer by layer, like a curtain being lifted by a pole.

Caught in the curtain's vortex, Chenyong Emperor's face grew paler, his breathing labored.

In the past, such a petty clown could be swatted away by the dozens with a single slap, but now he could only dodge passively. The thought alone was infuriating.

"Your Majesty, we will help you!"

Just as he was about to give in, a loud shout rang out, and he saw Yang Liu and the others leading countless soldiers below.

Boom!

Joining forces, their power shot straight into the sky, striking the Ancient Sage's long rod. The rod trembled and snapped in two.

The gap between an Ancient Sage and a Great Saint was immense, incomparable. Normally, they could not engage in battle.

But Liu Yang and the others, united in formation and coordinated with tens of thousands of soldiers, combined their strength enough to contend.

Many hands make light work. A truly united army that moves as one can intimidate even a Blood Rebirth expert.

However... if given enough time, a Blood Rebirth expert could kill the commander, rendering orders impossible and everything futile.

"Seeking death..."

Seeing his weapon broken by a group of Great Saints and Saint Domain experts, the Ancient Sage burned with rage. With a furious roar, he slapped his palm toward Liu Yang and the others.

If it hit, they would surely die!

"Hmph!"

Just as the palm force was about to reach Liu Yang, a cold snort rang out. A long spear appeared from nowhere.

Pfft!

The spear tip pierced through the palm, blood splattering down.

Then... expecting the opponent to charge and kill him, the Ancient Sage saw the young man holding the spear take out a jade bottle, bend over, and earnestly collect the dripping blood.

As he collected, he grew excited.

"..." The Ancient Sage.
