Chapter 452: Paying Respects to the Sovereign

Ultimately, Luoyu and Fire Cloud Emperor reported the news.

As the news spread, the experts of the Hunyuan Martial Saint Realm grew excited.

"Luoyu discovered a complete Ancestral Dragon corpse in the Solar System, within the Milky Way Galaxy of the Yangyuan Star Continent!"

"Haha, what a massive opportunity! The last time an Ancestral Dragon corpse was found was nine trillion years ago, right? It appeared outside our borders then. The Human Race, the Demon Race, the Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon clan... Countless experts from who knows how many races fought to the death over that corpse. Even many Emperors fell."

"This time, the Ancestral Dragon corpse has appeared right inside Human Race territory!"

"Quick, let's go!"

"Isn't the Solar System the territory of Li Yang, that genius from the Human Race's Eternal Saint Hall?"

"He's just a Star Lord Realm genius. Once we get the Ancestral Dragon corpse, it's ours. We can just give him a little compensation at most."

"Exactly. What's a mere Li Yang in the face of a treasure like this?"

One after another, experts from the Hunyuan Martial Saint Realm set out, speeding toward Earth!

...

「Two more weeks quickly passed.」

Li Yang, the Blade Slaughter Sect Master, and the others were waiting beside the encampment.

"Li Yang, Black Inference Emperor and the others are about to arrive. There shouldn't be any mishaps this time," the Blade Slaughter Sect Master said, looking at Li Yang with a smile.

"Fire Cloud Emperor still hasn't broken through the Array, so the Ancestral Dragon corpse is as good as ours."

Black Inference Emperor was arriving with numerous Emperors from the Human Race's Eternal Saint Hall. Actually, Luoyu and the others could have just as well reported to the higher-ups of the Hunyuan Martial Saint Realm and had them come to Earth.

That's why, for the past few days, the Blade Slaughter Sect Master had been worried that people from the Hunyuan Martial Saint Realm would arrive first.

Although this was Li Yang's territory, he was nothing in the face of the vast Hunyuan Martial Saint Realm. Confronted with such an incredible opportunity, no expert would give him a second thought.

"Teacher…"

Hearing the Blade Slaughter Sect Master's words, Li Yang was just about to say something when he suddenly froze.

WHOOSH!

In the void before him, figures appeared one after another.

Countless figures appeared, and the aura emanating from each one surpassed that of a Deity!

As soon as these figures appeared, the entire world seemed to tremble violently, as if it could collapse at any moment.

At the head of these figures was another silhouette, radiating an endless, oppressive might. Its form was blurry and its face indistinct, yet the entire world seemed to bow in submission before it.

'Black Inference Dominator!' Li Yang stared at the hazy figure, a sense of awe involuntarily welling up inside him.

'Aside from Black Inference Dominator, are all the others Emperors?'

Li Yang was inwardly shaken. Over seventy Emperors had arrived together. Each one was a being who reigned supreme across the Cosmos, and now they were all gathered here.

Before, the arrival of Fire Cloud Emperor alone had shocked Li Yang beyond belief!

And the strength of every single Emperor arriving now was no less than that of Fire Cloud Emperor!

One Dominator and over seventy Emperors. A force like this could probably annihilate the entire Thunder Spirit Race and the Time Divine Tree clan!

Li Yang watched in shock. On the other side, Fire Cloud Emperor, Luoyu, and the others were also waiting.

"In another hour, Blood Cold Dominator will arrive with the main force!" Fire Cloud Emperor said with a slight smile.

The Hunyuan Martial Saint Realm and the Human Race's Eternal Saint Hall are in different regions, so the travel time varies. The journey from the Hunyuan Martial Saint Realm to the Solar System should be several days faster than from the Eternal Saint Hall.

"Once the Ancestral Dragon corpse is taken away, it will be time to calculate our contribution points."

'Blood Cold Dominator…' Hearing the name, Luoyu's eyes filled with awe. Even Fire Cloud Emperor reacted the same way, his own eyes showing deep reverence.

The one Luoyu admired most, his ultimate backer, was Zun Lie Venerable. He was a top-tier expert among Emperors, capable of instantly killing his peers, and held an extremely high status within the Human Race!

But even so, Zun Lie Venerable still had to bow his head before a Dominator.

Dominators were the true pillars of the entire Human Race. Every single one of them held an exceptionally noble status!

"Ancestor," Luoyu couldn't help but ask, "has Ancestor Zun Lie found his opportunity to break through to the Dominator realm out there?"

Zun Lie Venerable didn't even come this time, despite the discovery of the Ancestral Dragon corpse, precisely because he was trying to break through to the Dominator realm!

Luoyu was filled with anticipation, hoping that Zun Lie Venerable would succeed.

The total number of Dominator-level experts in the entire Human Race was not large. If he succeeded, their Zun Lie Clan would truly have nothing to fear!

'A Dominator clan... that's what I've always dreamed of.'

"Difficult."

Hearing Luoyu's words, Fire Cloud Emperor shook his head and said, "The further you go, the harder the breakthrough bottlenecks become. Zun Lie Venerable has been stuck at the peak Emperor bottleneck for a million years and still can't break through. This bottleneck might persist forever, or it might be broken at some point. I've spoken with Zun Lie Venerable before, and he wasn't very confident."

Hearing this, Luoyu said with renewed hope, "Ancestor, our great ancestor, Zun Lie Venerable, will surely succeed! Our discovery of this Ancestral Dragon corpse is a clear sign that the Zun Lie Clan's destiny has arrived!"

The words had barely left his mouth when...

BOOM!

In the void, powerful figures appeared one after another, materializing out of thin air.

'Emperor-level experts?'

Staring at these numerous experts, Luoyu's words caught in his throat. He watched in shock as dozens of people materialized in the void, each one emanating an aura no weaker than Fire Cloud Emperor's.

Before he could even be shocked for a second, Luoyu's gaze shifted to the blurry figure in the lead.

Before that figure, those dozens of Emperors all seemed insignificant.

'Black Inference Dom... Dominator!' Luoyu froze, his eyes wide with disbelief.

His expression changed drastically, and his heart sank.

'How is this possible? Why are Black Inference Dominator and his experts here?'

A moment ago, he had subconsciously assumed it was the main force from their Hunyuan Martial Saint Realm.

However, the arriving force wasn't from their Hunyuan Martial Saint Realm—it was from the Human Race's Eternal Saint Hall!

The arrival of these experts made one thing clear: news of the Ancestral Dragon corpse within the sun had been leaked, and the people from the Human Race's Eternal Saint Hall had gotten here first.

And their early arrival meant the Ancestral Dragon corpse no longer had anything to do with them.

It wasn't just Luoyu. The expression on Fire Cloud Emperor's face, who stood beside him, changed drastically as well.

"Black Inference Dominator…"

His heart sank, but he didn't dare hesitate. He hurried forward and said with the utmost respect, "Greetings, Black Inference Dominator."

"Mm."

In the void, the towering, hazy figure spoke coldly, "Fire Cloud Emperor, this Solar System is the territory of my Saint Hall's genius, Li Yang. Withdraw."

Hearing Black Inference Dominator's command, Fire Cloud Emperor didn't dare voice any objection. He simply nodded and said, "Yes, Black Inference Dominator."

He then led an unwilling Luoyu and the others away.
