Chapter 2068: Chapter 1214–1215: Scheming Overseas, Fire Emperor’s Final Move
“Bamboo Sword has been defeated!”
“Having stepped into the Supreme Overlord level, wielding the Wood God Shield, the Marquis Bamboo Sword has lost!”
“With his battle power plus the Wood God Shield, he could fully match a Five-Star Battle Power supreme strong, able to challenge a True Immortal, and yet he still lost?”
“Is the Fire Emperor’s strength really that strong? Or did those few old timers also lend a hand from behind the scenes?”
A divine hall shimmering with crimson radiance stood in the center of Fire Dawn Divine Island, wisps of immortal light flowing above it. Numerous strong figures from the Fire Dawn Empire lived above this divine island, and now these many strong figures had gathered together, each emanating fearsome power, their potent auras intimidating the Ten Directions.
Majestic thrones ascended into the air, with each throne occupied by a supreme strong of the Nine Realms of Spirit. Those without having reached the Ninth Layer had no qualification to set foot into this divine hall.
And at the highest, most central spot, there was a divine throne, akin to an ancient emperor, standing firm in the core of the hall. This was the present Emperor Monarch of Fire Dawn Empire, Emperor Huo Xi.
Unlike other existences, Emperor Huo Xi himself was the pioneer of the Fire Dawn Empire, a strong figure existing since Ancient times. Although he hadn’t stepped into the True Immortal Realm, he had, due to some special opportunities, prolonged his life more than thrice the time of ordinary supreme strong individuals, and now returning to Divine Land World, some strong figures believed he could live close to a hundred thousand years.
A hundred thousand years, such an extremely long period, is thrice the lifespan of the current supreme strong, likely only a True Immortal could exceed this lifespan.
And having survived for so long, even if his aptitude were mediocre, he could fully step into the True Immortal Realm by relying on resource accumulation.
Yet Emperor Huo Xi remains only at the Supreme Overlord Realm, having not stepped into True Immortal for so long, leaving many strong figures baffled. It’s important to note that his current lifespan has exceeded thirty thousand years, making him the oldest supreme strong native to the Divine Land World.
Some speculate that this is because he has no worries about lifespan, thus ambitiously solidifying his foundation, intending to authenticate multiple immortal paths together.
Only Emperor Huo Xi knows that it’s not just due to ambition to solidify his foundation to ascend in one leap, but also because his Taoist Heart is flawed,
Though a senior, his skills were not as good as others’, falling behind in the struggle back then, he had to distance himself from Central Earth Continent, eventually leading the Fire Dawn Clan to retreat overseas.
Even though Emperor Huo Xi established such a foundation, even though he won against his opponent back then, ultimately he fell under the Immortal Ascension Tribulation, yet the tribulation in Emperor Huo Xi’s heart still remains unresolved.
He has thought more than once, if it were himself who won back then, the current Fire Emperor should be himself, and not some so-called Emperor Huo Xi.
In the Red Emperor Lineage, the title of Fire Emperor is most noble and truly legitimate, the rest hardly count as anything.
Only when he truly becomes the clan leader of the Red Emperor Lineage, will that be the moment he ascends to True Immortal, perhaps at that time even the Taoist Monarch level is not beyond reach.
One figure after another emerged above the thrones, some resembling True Dragon traversing, some had Phoenixes singing in harmony, some with Golden Crow soaring, various wondrous environments highlighted the elegance of each strong figure.
After taking their seats, they all remained silent, their eyes fixed on Emperor Huo Xi at the core of the divine hall, waiting for this one’s words.
“Clang”
“Clang”
“Clang”
Three ringing bell sounds echoed within this immortal divine hall, when a few more figures appeared, new thrones continuously emerged in the divine hall, these thrones were also consecutively occupied by supreme strong ones, but if observed carefully, one would find that the auras of these strong ones were entirely different from those of Fire Dawn Empire’s many strong ones.
The Five Emperors’ descendants, they are the heirs of the Five Emperors. Although the Five Emperors didn’t purely represent the Five Elements, within their descendants’ bloodlines, the elements they each symbolize indeed are the mainstream.
The Fire Dawn Empire represents the Red Emperor’s Fire element, while the subsequent appearing other strong ones, they represent the Cui Lan Dynasty’s Green Emperor’s Wood element and the Chenyu Empire’s Yellow Emperor’s Earth element.
These are not the key, the most crucial part is in the core position of the divine hall, beside Emperor Huo Xi, two divine thrones rose together with two other figures appearing.
On the two divine thrones, appeared two strong figures not inferior to Emperor Huo Xi, the King of Chenyu draped in battle armor, his eyes shone vividly, earthy yellow light flowing within them, sturdy and assertive, this King of Chenyu has always been so assertive, even domineering.
Next to him, the Cui Lan Emperor’s physique was somewhat thin, resembling an elder at the end of his life, yet the occasionally flickering green light on him seemed to nurture the power of life and death, making one think twice before underestimating him.
The King of Chenyu from the Chenyu Empire, the Cui Lan Emperor from the Cui Lan Dynasty, along with the host of the divine hall, Emperor Huo Xi, these three supreme strong ones among the Five Emperors’ human descendants from overseas all gathered here, all because of the defeat of Marquis Bamboo Sword.
As for the descendants of White Emperor and Black Emperor, although they also established Imperial Dynasties across the overseas isles, those two forces rarely interacted with these three sides.
After all, the Five Emperors’ descendants is merely a generalized term, they only band together when facing the top immortal sects and contemporary human race, but internally there are many divisions, not truly united.
