1263 - The door opens
Chapter 1263, The door opens
For the next few days, the Sky Emperor had tried all kinds of methods to break through the door of the Light Palace to no success.
In the space-time torrent, his power was no longer suppressed.
Even as a soul he could fight against a present age Martial Emperor, but couldn’t open this door.
This was maddening.
He was aware of the origin of the Light Palace, and that it did not belong to this world. It was also a coincidence that the Divine Light Emperor got this treasure. But even the Divine Light Emperor should not have the ability to modify the Light Palace. However, he was still unable to open the door despite following the previous methods. Thinking it over and over, there was only one possibility, that is, when the Divine Light Emperor taught him the laws of the palace control, he did not pass everything to him, and instead had some reservations.
This made the Sky Emperor realize that it was quite possible that, for a long period of time before the war, the Divine Light Emperor did not fully trust him.
This discovery made him feel indignant and angry.
“From the beginning, you didn't trust me... then you can't blame me for my betrayal at the last minute.” The Sky Emperor's face was gloomier than ever before.
His logic was strange.
And the sovereigns of the Dark Realm next to him, after coming to the time-space torrent, although still situated on a rotating platform, unable to sublimate, there wasn't any kind of natural repression here like that in the Vast Thousand Domains. Their strength had recovered greatly, but in front of the raging Sky Emperor, they still couldn’t help but tremble with fear. For a long period of time, they had become accustomed to being dominated by the Sky Emperor, and had long lost their dignity and honour.
“Attack together to refine it for me.”
The Sky Emperor came up with a solution.
The full operation of the Light Palace requires a great deal of energy.
Since the Light Palace was activated to this degree, he was certain that it was because the Empress of the Seven Fingers Race was pouring power into the core of the Light Palace. However, she had just become Emperor, thus with her strength being consumed greatly by the Light Palace, how much longer could she withstand? Sooner or later she will be exhausted, and even if she had the support of Wen Wan and other people, they could only delay them for a period of time. In order to find Lan Tian, the Sky Emperor had been searching for countless years. There was no harm in waiting for a few more days, right?
Moreover, it was impossible for the Light Palace to run away. With just enough grinding, everything would be in his hands soon.
When the Sky Emperor thought of this, a sinister smile came onto his face.
He taught a set of formation techniques to the dozen sovereigns of the Dark Realm so that they could work together to bring out the strongest combination power, and then bombard the silver door of the Light Palace in order to consume its protective power.
How terrifying was the combined attack of dozens of sovereigns of the past.
The beams of light, which contained the power of destruction, bombarded the door of the palace, and like raindrops rippling on pond water surface, the door began to move rapidly.
The Sky Emperor, on the other hand, stood to one side, resumed his indifference, and began to observe and command.
Time passed by.
In the blink of an eye, one month of time had passed.
The ripples on the silver door of the Light Palace were still rapidly flashing, and there did not seem to be any noticeable change.
But the Sky Emperor could sense that the protective power of the palace was deteriorating little by little.
It made him very satisfied.
“Continue,” he said with a cold smile.
Although the dozens of sovereigns of the Dark Realm had consumed a great deal of energy, but under the majesty of the Sky Emperor, they constantly continued to operate the formation without pausing, bombarding the silver door together.
Everything had faded in the space-time torrent.
The Light Palace, like a ship that had lost its control, was flowing in the middle of the current, with no direction, no destination.
Time flew by.
In a blink of an eye, half a year was gone.
The ripples on the silver door of the Light Palace were getting lighter and weaker.
A smile began to form on the Sky Emperor's face.
“In at most three months, the Empress of the Seven Fingers Race won’t be able to support any longer.”
He had already predicted the exact time of the opening of the palace door.
He was very patient like a man fishing on a platform. The more he was closer to the critical moment, the more he was in no hurry.
He had already waited for countless eras, why worry about the last little time.
He simply considered it as the last calmness and enjoyment before the arrival of the most brilliant and dazzling inside.
It can be imagined that the people in the Light Palace were already on the verge of madness, right?
Another month passed by.
“Two months away...” The Sky Emperor once again agreed with his previous judgment that the silver door of the palace had deteriorated exactly as he had expected, and that everything was within calculation, without any error.
However, it was at this point that, all of a sudden, an unexpected change occurred.
A majestic power, like a cosmic star, burst out of the silver door.
The dozen sovereigns of the Dark Realm, who were bombarding the door with all their strength, unable to defend themselves, were blasted out, like gourds rolling down the steps, injured and spurting out jets of blood...
Huh?
What happened?
The Sky Emperor did not care to look at his subordinates at all, but instinctively turned to the silver door of the palace.
The silver door was slowly opening.
It was a slender figure, glowing with silvery light, as though reborn from the blazing silver flames. He was handsome and tall, Emperor qi curling around his body, and his posture resembled a divine sword. Silhouetted against the light, he was slowly walking out of the door of the Light Palace
“We meet again.”
To the Sky Emperor, this clear voice was incredibly familiar.
……
……
North of the defensive line of the northwest great wall of the Dark Realm.
Millions of kilometers into the depths of the Chaos Domain, Ye Qingyu and Song Xiaojun came to an ancient mountain castle.
Countless Invaders were frantically attacking the castle.
Ye Qingyu's face revealed an unprecedented surprised expression.
Because he could already sense that the yuan qi and marital arts aura coming from the castle was those of Bai Yuanxing and the others. In the great wide world, there was no one more familiar with the characteristics of the [Heavenly Blind Way] more than Ye Qingyu. Moreover, it was only Bai Yuanxing and the others who had cultivated this before. He would absolutely not be wrong on this.
“Go over and look.”
Ye Qingyu and Song Xiaojun came to the castle.
The ancient castle was constructed from a rare strange coloured boulder, as if carved out little by little from a huge, complete mountain. Moreover, the exterior appearance was somewhat terrifying. It looked like a giant skull, with the three doors resembling the mouth and eyes, while the nostrils were the small windows of the three doors. From each of these three doors was a young figure, constantly launching attacks to defend against the Invaders. The familiar martial arts yuan qi aura that Ye Qingyu sensed before was coming from these young figures.
On closer inspection, he found that these young figures were some young boys and girls who seemed to be in a difficult situation. Their clothes were ragged and were clad in some unknown ancient armour, rusty and incomplete, like they were picked up from an ancient battlefield. At first glance they looked like a group of savages, but their strength was not weak in the slightest. All three were basically at the peak of the Saint realm, and their movements were disciplined and orderly. The three people cooperated to form a battle formation and tightly guarded the three doors. Not even a Great Saint expert could invade the castle.
And the military battle formation the three people adopted was what Ye Qingyu had taught to Bai Yuanxing, Li Ying and Li Qi.
Seeing this, Ye Qingyu was completely certain that the young boys and girls in this castle were the young boys and girls who Ye Qingyu sent to the Immortal God Emperor Sect of the Clear River Domain for training. Although he did not know why these young talents were in the Chaos Domain, but that was unimportant. He had finally found them.
“Fight off these Invaders first.”
Ye Qingyu, with one thought, filled the air with sword intent, like clouds being rolled up by the wind. The Invaders within thousands of kilometers of the ancient castle were instantly slashed to dust by the ubiquitous Emperor sword intent, before they dissipated with the wind. All of the roaring and howling were gone in an instant, and the fierce and vicious scene before seemed like an illusion.
The power of an Emperor, in this moment, was displayed without restraint.
And in the castle, the young boys and girls who were fighting to the death were shocked by this sudden change.
“What happened?” A youngster in a rusty iron armour looked out of the gate.
Another beautiful girl in a relatively intact bronze armour said blankly, “It... seems like we won? The beasts are gone all of a sudden, like they were blown away... Anyway, I can't see any shadow of the beasts, I also can’t see any blood on the ground and the body of the beasts...”
“Strange!” A tall, braver youngster, clasping a bone shield and a broken iron spear, came out of the gate, jumped to a rock and looked up and down, before he cheered, “The beasts are really gone, there isn’t even a shadow... it's safe.”
After some confirmation, many young boys and girls came out of the castle.
They were led by a handsome-looking young man with a hint of craftiness, and although not the tallest, he was well built and was considered as the absolutely strongest among the young boys and girls. The aura that exuded from his body was already of the Quasi-emperor realm. He seemed to be the leader of the group of youngsters. After surveying around for a while, he said strangely, “Doesn't seem right. The beasts have also retreated before but they had never retreated that far, and were always basically within three or four thousand meters. Why is it that this time there isn't a trace of them within tens of thousands of meters? This is too bizarre. Just now there seemed to be a force that instantly killed all of the beasts...”
