Chapter 735: Chapter 298: You Are Too Weak, You Can’t Even Withstand a Single Blow from Me!
Half a day later.
Within the massive Qilin City.
A sea of people, a cacophony of voices.
Countless figures had already gathered.
The sun had just set, and it wasn’t truly the day of the decisive battle yet. The entire Qilin City was already full of countless masters, both from the Human Race and the Alien Race.
They had previously occupied advantageous positions just to witness the unparalleled duel between Jiang Shi and Emperor Great Heng!
Jiang Shi, the foremost human expert, was already renowned, everyone knew his approximate strength. Even experts like Lian Aotian and Jiao Yuan had been defeated miserably by him, naturally without further words.
Emperor Great Heng, on the other hand, was known by few.
This person had lived for several thousand years, with cultivation immeasurable, surviving from the peak period of the Dynasty to its period of decline, even forming alliances with the Alien Race in the early days of their emergence, betraying humanity.
No one could clarify the true extent of this Old Emperor’s power.
Some said he was half a step into Ancient Saints, others said he was at the Great Perfection of Nirvana.
Yet others said that the true emperor had long died, and the current emperor was merely a puppet of the Alien Race.
Such rumors made it difficult to distinguish truth from falsehood.
In summary, this duel had almost all the attention of the world drawn to it.
A towering tavern stood, filled with ancient styles and charm, having been previously booked by others, by other masters.
Inside the private room at the top of the tavern.
Several figures were gathered here.
They were Emperor Great Heng Zhao Minglong and his Crown Prince and trusted aides.
Besides them, there were six other Alien Race masters.
Each had an aura deep and unfathomable, resembling statues, faces stern, eyes cold and emitting an aura that made them impossible to gaze upon directly.
It’s as if these six figures were true gods of the world.
All humans, ghosts, demons, and buddhas, bowed before them.
"To think that the Gate of the Fallen Emperor actually appeared, it’s truly unexpected for this to happen at such a time. This is a tremendous opportunity, nothing could be more important than this matter. Our ancestors have already informed us that if signs of the Gate of the Fallen Emperor appear, we must immediately abandon everything at hand and hurry there as soon as possible. We cannot afford to waste time here - your duel with Jiang Shi must be postponed immediately!"
One of them, a terrifying being with a massive body that looked like a shark, spoke in a deep voice.
This was none other than Venerable Hu Sha, one of the six great experts from the Thousand Tribulations Sect!
A being at the Great Perfection of Nirvana.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Great Heng’s expression changed immediately, quickly looking towards the others.
Bai Men Daoist frowned, waved his hand, and said, "Don’t be hasty, Hu Sha. The Gate of the Fallen Emperor has only just begun to reveal itself. According to just arrived information, the exterior of the Gate of the Fallen Emperor is still covered with powerful restrictions that have not dissipated.
Even if we rush there now, we will get nothing, only idle waiting. Instead, it’s better to resolve Jiang Shi first and then head over there; it’s not even a matter of time. Don’t forget our goals - besides the Gate of the Fallen Emperor, there’s also the Thousand Demon Cave. The Thousand Demon Cave is of great importance and requires Jiang Shi’s blood."
"Yes, Bai Men is right, Hu Sha. No need to hurry for the moment. Anyway, the decisive battle is in half a day. Let’s wait a bit more. Once we seize Jiang Shi, we’ll immediately take the teleportation array to the East Sea, and it’ll be in time."
Beside him was a figure with a small body, dark skin, looking like a person with bat wings, speaking in a husky voice.
It was the Demon Bat, the strongest among the six great experts!
The other figures immediately spoke, expressing a similar viewpoint.
Venerable Hu Sha, the Alien Race expert, furrowed his brow, deliberating for a moment, and said in a deep tone, "Since you all think this way, I’ll listen to you for the moment, and wait half a day longer. Hopefully tomorrow morning, Jiang Shi won’t skip the appointment!"
"Regardless of whether he skips it, he is destined not to escape. Even if we don’t capture him this time, next time we will seize him directly!"
Daoist Bai Men said.
"Hm."
Venerable Hu Sha nodded indifferently.
On one side, Emperor Great Heng immediately sighed quietly in relief.
...
In another direction.
A terrifying figure, with a fat and robust body, sitting down measuring over eight meters tall, changed expression and trembled his fat with a sound, saying, "What did you say? The Gate of the Fallen Emperor has appeared?"
"Yes, Master Tong Lin, in the East Sea, without any prior indication, now the sea has stirred giant waves, imperial power has emerged, intertwining lights that are difficult to behold!"
An Alien Race individual spoke quickly.
"To appear at such a time?"
Master Tong Lin, with an extremely corpulent body and narrow small eyes, flickered quickly, and asked in a low tone, "What about the Thousand Tribulations Sect and Blood War Alliance, what are their movements?"
"The people of Blood War Alliance left as soon as they received the news; the Thousand Tribulations Sect has yet made a move!"
The Alien Race individual responded.
"The Thousand Tribulations Sect hasn’t acted immediately?"
Corpulent body Tong Lin’s mind quickly contemplated, with sharp brilliance in his small eyes, showing a sinister smile and said, "I see, they still want to capture Jiang Shi first before taking action. Now over there in the East Sea, the restrictions have not completely dissipated. Even if they rush there, it would just be wasted time. Very well, in that case, I’ll wait with the Thousand Tribulations Sect folks!"
"Master, we’re not acting immediately either?"
The Alien Race expert’s eyes flashed.
"Correct."
Tong Lin waved his large hand, grabbing hold of an unnamed bleeding giant beast in front of him, and continued to devour, saying, "Go inform the other two leaders, let them settle down and wait a while longer!"
