Chapter 257 A Sensation In The Yuankun Domain! The Eight Great Sovereigns Are On The Verge Of Saber-
Chapter 257: Shocking the Yuan Kun Domain! The Tense Eight Supreme Beings! I Just Want to Quietly Be a Mediocre Cultivator
At this moment, countless gazes from all over the Yuan Kun Domain were cast towards the Tai Bai Divine Continent.
The battle in the White Emperor City, although lasting only a short moment, had alarmed the entire Yuan Kun Domain.
So many immortal soldiers were revived and engaged in a full-scale battle, including three True Immortal weapons. The terrifying power shook every corner of the Yuan Kun Domain.
"They're here again?"
"What exactly happened?"
"Hiss~ It seems like the White Emperor City has been attacked again."
"For decades, the Yuan Kun Domain has experienced multiple battles of this magnitude. It's a turbulent time."
"Who is attacking the White Emperor City? Even the Tai Bai Immortal Territory is about to be shattered."
Among the various forces, the Saints, quasi-emperors, and even the Great Emperors looked towards the direction of the White Emperor City with shock on their faces.
Especially those divine continents near the Tai Bai Divine Continent, due to their close proximity, when the power of the battle swept over, it made everyone's scalp tingle, feeling like they would die the next moment.
Fortunately, the aftermath swept across the sky and did not affect the various divine continents. Otherwise, there would have been a great loss of life.
Countless Holy Abyss Realm experts, quasi-emperors, and even two Heavenly Sovereign Realm Great Emperors under the jurisdiction of the White Emperor City were rushing towards the Tai Bai Immortal Territory.
No matter what they thought, they had to hurry over to protect the Emperor. Once the White Emperor died, the entire White Emperor City would fall apart, and this powerful force would cease to exist.
Without the White Emperor City, even the status of a Heavenly Sovereign Realm Great Emperor would be greatly reduced. The position of a normal Heavenly Sovereign Realm power and a Heavenly Sovereign Realm Great Emperor in a powerful force differed greatly in terms of resources, not to mention other cultivators.
At this moment, all the cultivators in the White Emperor City were in a very bad mood, feeling that their luck was not good.
In just over twenty years, the White Emperor City had encountered three calamities. It should be noted that in the Yuan Kun Domain, there had only been three True Immortal-level battles in these years, and each time the White Emperor City was involved.
The first time was when a mysterious expert attacked the five major powerful forces. The Western Heaven Palace and the Bu Tian Sect suffered some losses, but the White Emperor City, apart from the White Emperor being injured, did not suffer any other losses.
The second time was the battle in the Qian Primordial Spirit Province two years ago. The White Emperor took most of the foundation of the White Emperor City to participate in the battle and was blown up on the spot.
During the White Emperor City's weak defense, five unknown Supreme Beings invaded the Tai Bai Immortal Territory and looted it, causing heavy losses and severe damage to the vitality of the White Emperor City.
The third time was this time, when a powerful expert broke into the Tai Bai Immortal Territory and engaged in a fierce battle with the White Emperor. The outcome was unknown.
However, many experts in the White Emperor City had a bad premonition. The White Emperor City only had one True Immortal weapon, but the previous fluctuations indicated that the intruder had two True Immortal weapons or that two Supreme Beings had joined forces to break in.
But at this moment, the other eight Supreme Beings of the Yuan Kun Domain had arrived, so the identity of the intruder who entered the Tai Bai Immortal Territory could be basically determined.
The Great Emperor of Eternal Life in Chengsheng Mountain!
Can the White Emperor really stop him?
Many powerful beings are uncertain, as the White Emperor was once killed by the Great Emperor of Eternal Life in their previous battle.
In the Tai Bai Immortal Realm.
The Empress Huanyue, Empress Yuanchu, Great Emperor Tianji, Leader of the Heaven-Repairing Sect, Emperor of the Sun, Master of the Western Heaven Palace, Supreme of the Qin Family, and Supreme of the Jiang Family, these eight supremes arrived almost simultaneously.
When they saw the devastated and chaotic Tai Bai Immortal Realm, the expressions of the eight supremes varied, but they all felt a strong sense of fear in their hearts.
Han Li is so reckless!
Just because he had a grudge with the White Emperor, he directly charged into the Tai Bai Immortal Realm, causing this situation. It seems that the White Emperor also died here.
They don't like people like Han Li who don't follow the rules, even if their strength is strong. Some supremes have already thought about joining forces to kill and destroy the newly risen number one force in the Yuan Kun Domain, and then kill the Great Emperor of Eternal Life, Han Li.
They can't help but think this way. Today, Han Li dared to enter the Tai Bai Immortal Realm and kill the White Emperor, so tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, he will dare to intrude into the territories of other powerful forces and kill them too.
Regardless of whether they have a grudge with the White Emperor or not, at this moment, they all have a feeling of sorrow for the same kind. They are brewing killing intent one by one.
But before they join forces to kill in Chengsheng Mountain, they have one more thing to do, which is to take over the "inheritance" of the White Emperor City.
Since the White Emperor is dead, this powerful force of the White Emperor City should be divided among them.
After dividing the inheritance of the White Emperor City, they will go and kill Han Li, and incidentally divide Chengsheng Mountain.
Some supremes suddenly realized that this seems to be a good idea. At least the outcome is greatly beneficial to them, and they can reap all the benefits.
With the White Emperor City gone, the White Emperor dead, and Han Li and Chengsheng Mountain, the number one force in the Yuan Kun Domain, gone, there are only eight powerful forces left in the Yuan Kun Domain, and they can gain great benefits.
"Is the White Emperor really dead?"
The Great Emperor Tianji was the first to speak, breaking the silence.
"They're all dead." Empress Yuanchu, clad in silver armor and holding a halberd, said calmly.
"He should be truly dead, otherwise he would have appeared long ago." The Leader of the Heaven-Repairing Sect smiled meaningfully.
Supreme of the Jiang Family frowned slightly and said, "Do you think there's a possibility that the White Emperor is not in the Tai Bai Immortal Realm and has luckily escaped this disaster?"
The Master of the Western Heaven Palace shook his head calmly and said, "Didn't you feel that the White Emperor's Dao principles were shattered? They were scattered all over the Tai Bai Immortal Realm, almost completely annihilated."
"Since the White Emperor is dead, let's divide the spoils first," Empress Huanyue said directly.
The death of the White Emperor is just that, even if we go to settle the score with Han Li, it is not for the sake of avenging the White Emperor, but for their own safety.
With these words, silence fell over the scene once again. The Supreme Beings exchanged glances and saw the vigilance in each other's eyes.
The legacy of the White Emperor City is too rich. Even though immortal medicines, immortal qi, immortal stones, and other immortal resources have been plundered by Han Li, the immortal scriptures and immortal-level martial arts are still there, making it a great treasure trove.
Moreover, what they value more are the immortal soldiers of the White Emperor City, the True Immortal Martial Palace, and the other six Celestial Immortal soldiers.
Obtaining a Celestial Immortal soldier can enhance the strength of a powerful force to some extent, but if they can seize the Martial Palace, the force to which the winner belongs will become the new number one force in the Yuan Kun Domain.
The Supreme Beings saw from the eyes of the other Supreme Beings that everyone was determined to obtain the Martial Palace. Even if their relationship was good, even if they were allies, they would not give up a True Immortal soldier.
"It seems that Han Li took away the fortuitous immortal lotus and seems to have taken away a Celestial Immortal soldier," Sun Emperor Jun said after thinking for a moment and spoke first.
Supreme Qin nodded slightly but didn't pay much attention. His gaze swept around, passing over the seven Supreme Beings, before saying indifferently:
"I only want the Martial Palace. Apart from that, you can divide everything else from the White Emperor City. Does anyone have any objections?"
He was already the number one powerhouse in the Yuan Kun Domain, with unfathomable strength. It was rumored that he had already stepped into the realm of Battle Immortal with one foot.
If he could obtain the Martial Palace, from then on, no one in the endless Yuan Kun Domain would be able to threaten him.
Faced with the overbearing aura of Supreme Qin, all seven Supreme Beings sneered, releasing their own overwhelming aura to counter him.
Normally, they would give Supreme Qin some face, but in the face of the Martial Palace, this True Immortal soldier, they didn't care whether he was the number one powerhouse in the Yuan Kun Domain or not.
As long as they obtained the Martial Palace, they themselves would be the number one powerhouse in the Yuan Kun Domain, and the force to which they belonged would also become the number one force in the Yuan Kun Domain.
The Lord of the Western Heaven smiled and said, "Qin Changsheng, do you think we will let you?"
"Then I, the Lord of the Heavenly Repair Sect, only want the Martial Palace, and you can have everything else," the Lord of the Heavenly Repair Sect followed suit.
"The things I value have never been given away without a fight," Empress Huanyue said calmly but with a domineering tone, causing the brows of the Supreme Beings to furrow slightly.
Excluding external items like the immortal soldiers, in terms of strength alone, Empress Huanyue can rank in the top three among them, and even has the possibility of contending for the first place with Supreme Qin.
Empress Yuanchu glanced at her and said coldly, "I want the Martial Palace."
Sun Emperor Jun looked left and right, wanting to make such a domineering declaration, but in the end, he sighed inwardly and remained silent.
In terms of strength, he was almost at the bottom among the Supreme Beings, just slightly stronger than Emperor Tianji. They were all at the peak of the Heavenly Sovereign Realm, but there was a considerable difference in their combat power.
In terms of power, his Sun Dynasty is almost at the bottom among the strongest forces, so he doesn't have the confidence to say such things.
Moreover, he doesn't even have an ally.
The Sacred Mountain can barely be considered a half ally, but his ninth daughter is still there, most likely going to marry Han Li. However, both Han Li and the Sacred Mountain are struggling to protect themselves, so he doesn't dare to get involved.
"Then let's rely on our own abilities."
The Supreme of the Qin Family had no expression on his face, standing with his hands behind his back under the sky, his gaze slightly lowered as if he wanted to look down on the other supremes.
"It's just right for me to see if you have made any progress in your abilities."
Watching the tense scene, the Great Emperor of Heavenly Mechanism let out a bitter laugh. He didn't want to compete for anything.
Although he also coveted the Immortal Palace of Martial Immortals, he knew that he didn't have much chance of getting it. Similar to the Sun Emperor, he didn't like fighting and killing.
The gaze of the Great Emperor of Heavenly Mechanism swept over the other supremes and looked towards the Martial Immortal Palace and the other four Celestial Immortal weapons. He decided to give up and first obtain one Celestial Immortal weapon.
"I won't compete for the Martial Immortal Palace. I'll take one Celestial Immortal weapon. Huh? The White Emperor isn't dead?"
The Great Emperor of Heavenly Mechanism withdrew his gaze and spoke carefully, suddenly pausing, his tone filled with surprise.
In that instant when the Great Emperor of Heavenly Mechanism noticed, the Supreme of the Qin Family, the Empress of the Phoenix Moon, the Empress of the Primordial Beginning, and the Lord of the Western Heaven Palace, and many other supremes also noticed, their faces showing astonishment.
The White Emperor had come back to life again!
Looking at the slowly condensing and reappearing White Emperor, the eight supremes had an inexplicable expression in their eyes as they coldly watched.
No one wanted the White Emperor to come back to life.
They had hoped that the White Emperor had really died at the hands of Han Li, so they could divide the inheritance of the White Emperor City among themselves, even if it meant fighting fiercely.
Unfortunately, the White Emperor didn't die after all. He miraculously survived, or perhaps the Immortal Emperor of Longevity didn't intend to kill the White Emperor at all, probably just came to plunder the Tai Bai Immortal Realm.
Although they were extremely displeased, the supremes felt relieved in their hearts. It seemed that the Immortal Emperor of Longevity was not crazy, at least he had some restraint.
"What a pity."
The Empress of the Phoenix Moon and the Empress of the Primordial Beginning exchanged a glance, both understanding each other's regret.
If the White Emperor had really died, they could have pushed the eight major forces to join forces and collectively attack the Sacred Mountain, killing that cunning bastard Han Li.
It would be best to snatch back the fragmented soul, but even if they couldn't, it didn't matter. If the soul died, they would recover in no time and still be able to enter the realm of Immortal War in a perfect state.
In the center of the Tai Bai Immortal Realm, the Martial Immortal Palace was filled with immortal light, helping the White Emperor gather the scattered flesh and blood, and even the countless fragments of the Primordial Spirit were returning one after another.
The true spirit of the White Emperor flew out from the Martial Immortal Palace and took over his physical body, reconnecting with the physical body, Primordial Spirit, and the martial path.
Everything went smoothly.
The successfully resurrected White Emperor breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at the eight supremes around him with a cold expression, showing no gratitude.
He knew very well that these eight supremes were the ones who least wanted him to come back to life. If it weren't for the protection of the Martial Immortal Palace and the five Celestial Immortal weapons, these eight supremes would have directly attacked and killed him, blaming Han Li.
"Please leave," the White Emperor said expressionlessly.
The eight supremes, including Empress Huangyue, Empress Yuanchu, Supreme Qin, and the Lord of the Western Heaven, looked at the White Emperor and then at the five immortal weapons above his head, sighing inwardly.
They had considered killing the White Emperor while they had the chance, but they didn't act because they lacked unity. If some of them made a move, others might intervene, and they would end up offending the White Emperor for no reason.
Not all the supremes wanted the White Emperor to die again after his resurrection. For example, the Divine Emperor of Heavenly Calculation and the Sun Emperor were among those who preferred the White Emperor to stay alive. If the White Emperor remained alive, he would continue to rule over the White Emperor City, and the Martial Immortal Palace would not fall into the hands of other supremes. The gap between them would not be significant.
With the Sacred Mountain of Chengsheng already on their heads, no one wanted another person to ride on top of them, especially if they were familiar competitors.
Next, the eight supremes left one after another.
Supremes like the Sun Emperor, the Divine Emperor of Heavenly Calculation, and the Supreme of the Jiang Family politely exchanged a few words before leaving. Empress Huangyue and Empress Yuanchu left directly with a cold snort, while Supreme Qin left most decisively.
"Congratulations, White Friend, on your resurrection. I hope such a tragic event won't happen again."
"White Emperor, we came to help you. Why do you have to be cold towards us? If you want revenge, go find Han Li."
The Lord of the Western Heaven and the Lord of the Butian Sect left with a few insincere words and a hint of unwillingness.
Throughout the whole process, the White Emperor remained expressionless. Even when the two supremes mocked him to his face, he didn't say a word.
After all the supremes had left, the White Emperor looked at the devastated Taibai Immortal Realm, his eyes filled with anger that could destroy the world, but he still didn't speak.
This time was too dangerous. He almost died, died in his own lair.
Having obtained the core fragment of the Creation Jade Talisman and about to obtain another fragment, as well as the body of Empress Qin Shiyin, he thought he had a firm grasp and could easily control Qin Shiyin. The White Emperor became somewhat arrogant.
He never expected that Qin Shiyin would actually collude with his mortal enemy Han Li. Qin Shiyin had no previous connection with Han Li.
And yet, Han Li actually agreed to help Qin Shiyin come after him. Wasn't he afraid that it was a trap?
The White Emperor couldn't understand this, and what he couldn't understand even more was that Qin Shiyin would rather choose Han Li than him. Was he really inferior to Han Li?
She would rather let a stranger take her than let him have her.
In just a few decades, Zi Miaozhen betrayed him, Empress Huanyue looked down on him, and Qin Shiyin also betrayed him. His dignity and reputation were repeatedly damaged.
In the eyes of Bai Di, this was a great humiliation. However, Bai Di did not make a fuss. All his dissatisfaction, anger, and resentment were deeply hidden in the depths of his heart.
He fell into Han Li's hands once again, which was a huge blow to Bai Di. But, he learned from his mistakes! In the past, he did not study the Gu Dao deeply enough and was not cautious enough, which led to such a disaster. This bloody lesson made Bai Di fully understand.
He decided to quietly become a practitioner of Gu Dao from now on. He must be extremely careful in everything he does and must have full confidence. He must not repeat the same mistakes, and he no longer had the capital to make a comeback.
As long as he could survive, there would always be a chance for revenge. He set a small goal: to survive for ten thousand years, and if that didn't work, he would survive for a hundred thousand years, a million years, or even tens of millions of years.
During this period, he would quietly and low-key search for clues about the True Immortal soldiers and slowly accumulate his strength. Even if Han Li wanted to kill him again, he wouldn't dare to do so. That would make him a target of everyone and be killed by all the supremes working together.
No matter how strong Han Li was, he couldn't withstand the combined strength of all the supremes. Even if Han Li cultivated to the True Immortal realm, as long as he didn't have the battle power of a Golden Immortal and didn't have a Golden Immortal soldier, he wouldn't dare to break the bottom line in the Yuan Kun Domain.
For example, today, Han Li didn't dare to kill him, he could only snatch and run away. However, Bai Di didn't know that he planned to accumulate his strength for millions of years before dealing with Han Li, but Han Li didn't plan to give him that much time.
According to Han Li's estimation, at most another thirty years, and if everything went smoothly, within twenty years or even ten years, he would have the invincible strength in the Yuan Kun Domain.
That would be the time for settlement. Now, he was just letting Bai Di live a little longer. Just as Bai Di was repentant and decided to quietly become a practitioner of Gu Dao, many cultivators from Bai Di City finally arrived.
Upon entering the Tai Bai Immortal Realm, the faces of all the cultivators turned pale. The Tai Bai Immortal Realm was in ruins, almost completely destroyed. Was it looted by thieves?
When they saw Bai Di in the center and the five immortal weapons, many cultivators breathed a sigh of relief. Bai Di was not dead, otherwise Bai Di City would truly be lost.
"Pay respects to the Crown of Bai Di!"
"Under the Crown of Bai Di, what happened?"
"Did Han Li come to attack?"
The powerful individuals in the White Emperor City were all talking at once, their moods far from pleasant.
The Taibai Immortal Realm had already been plundered by the Five Supreme Beings, suffering heavy losses. Now, it had been plundered by Han Li as well, leaving it almost empty. Did they still have any cultivation resources for the future?
After asking a few questions, many cultivators fell silent, perhaps thinking that it would be better if the White Emperor were dead.
With the inheritance of the White Emperor City being divided, they could choose to join other powerful forces and avoid their current predicament.
With the White Emperor still alive and in control of the Celestial Immortal soldiers and True Immortal soldiers, no one dared to openly rebel.
The White Emperor's gaze swept over the many cultivators, fully aware of their thoughts, but he didn't say anything. Times had changed.
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Gentlemen, we are the only ones left in the White Emperor City. I hope you will join forces with me so that we can rise again."
As he spoke, the White Emperor bowed to the many White Emperor City cultivators.
He wouldn't have done this before. In the past, he was arrogant and would only come and go at his command, not caring much.
Now, all the immortal resources of the White Emperor City, as well as most of the imperial-level resources, had been taken by Han Li. Even the Heaven-defying Immortal Lotus, the Heaven-defying Pool, and a Celestial Immortal soldier had been snatched away by Han Li.
If he hadn't hidden some of the true spirits in the core of the Martial Immortal Palace in advance to prevent accidents, he would have truly died.
The many cultivators of the White Emperor City looked at this scene in a daze, then excitement appeared on their faces, regardless of whether it was true or not, they all shouted together.
"We pledge to follow the White Emperor to the death!"
The news of the battle in the White Emperor City quickly spread throughout the endless Yuan Kun Domain, tarnishing the reputation of the White Emperor City and causing it to fall into complete silence, while the Chengsheng Mountain once again became famous, shaking the endless Yuan Kun Domain.
At this time, in the Qian Primordial Spirit Province, the Penglai Immortal Sect.
On the Penglai Immortal Mountain, two figures stood on a cliff, looking towards the East Sea and having a secret conversation.
These two figures were the masters of the Penglai Immortal Sect, Guanhai Old Dao and the third palm teacher of Baiyujing, Lu Zhen.
"Master, are you really not going to do anything about Senior Sister Qing Shuang?" Lu Zhen asked angrily.
Ling Qing Shuang was his moonlight, and he had always been worried. Since he found out that Ling Qing Shuang had been captured by Han Li and became Han Li's Dao companion, he had been very sad.
Lu Zhen had gone to the master, asking him to intercede, even if it was just to let him see Senior Sister Qing Shuang.
But Baiyujing Daojun refused him and even confined Lu Zhen, not allowing him to take a step out of Baiyujing.
Of course, Daojun knew Lu Zhen's situation, but he didn't dare to go find Han Li. Han Li's strength was getting stronger and stronger, and the influence of Chengsheng Mountain was growing, becoming the number one in Yuan Kun Domain. Baiyujing couldn't afford to provoke him.
Lu Zhen had no choice but to pretend to give up. Recently, Daojun had released him, so Lu Zhen went straight to the Penglai Immortal Sect.
He wanted to coax Guanhai Old Dao to take action. He knew that there was no hope of rescuing Senior Sister Qing Shuang, but he still wanted to see her and ask how she was doing recently.
Actually, he could go himself, but for various reasons, he didn't dare to.
"Lu Zhen, give up." Guanhai Old Dao shook his head.
He had already discussed this with Baiyujing Daojun and reached a consensus with the masters of other holy sites. They must not provoke Han Li and Chengsheng Mountain.
"Can't I just see her once?" Lu Zhen roared.
He couldn't wait any longer. If he waited any longer, his Senior Sister Qing Shuang would probably change from ooo to OOO.
"Then go by yourself. My Penglai Immortal Sect won't accompany you." Guanhai Old Dao said coldly, issuing an order to leave.
Now Chengsheng Mountain was too powerful, the number one in Yuan Kun Domain, and it was a good thing for Ling Qing Shuang to be in Chengsheng Mountain. The Penglai Immortal Sect might be able to benefit from it and revive itself.
He had already been to Chengsheng Mountain once, met Ling Qing Shuang, and even met Ling Qing Shuang's children, but he couldn't tell Lu Zhen about it.
Otherwise, Lu Zhen would probably go crazy.
Just as Lu Zhen was about to leave, he and Guanhai Old Dao looked towards the sky, in the direction of the Tai Bai Divine Continent.
"The fluctuation of the True Immortal soldiers." Guanhai Old Dao said with an extremely solemn expression.
Lu Zhen nodded and didn't leave for the time being, waiting for news. There must have been a major change in Yuan Kun Domain.
Sure enough, they didn't have to wait long. A piece of news spread rapidly. When Lu Zhen and Guanhai Old Dao learned of it, they fell silent.
Guanhai Old Dao sighed and patted Lu Zhen's shoulder before disappearing from the cliff.
After this battle, Chengsheng Mountain became even stronger, and no one dared to provoke it in Yuan Kun Domain.
Lu Zhen clenched his fists tightly, but in the end, he let go. He felt like a deflated balloon, leaving the Penglai Immortal Sect in a daze.
He stepped on his divine sword and didn't plan to return to Baiyujing. He took out a wine jug and kept pouring it into his mouth, wanting to drown his sorrows in alcohol.
However, drowning his sorrows only made him more sorrowful.
Lu Zhen disappeared from the Qian Primordial Spirit Province and didn't reappear until tens of thousands of years later, when he had become the Immortal of Wine and Sword.
