Great Emperor Xuan Luo
"Do you know the identities of the Savage Axe Emperor and me?" Instead of immediately telling Zhuge Xiang why he interrupted his Duel with the Fish Blade Emperor, the White Bone Emperor asked.
"Savage Axe Emperor? Sorry, I don't know your relationship with him," Zhuge Xiang replied, shaking his head.
The Savage Axe Emperor was killed by him, and now the White Bone Emperor is asking about this. Could it be that his relationship with the Savage Axe Emperor was unusual, and that he has come to seek revenge?
"It seems you are indeed new to the Asura Path and don't quite understand the situation there," the White Bone Emperor said, seeing Zhuge Xiang shake his head as if he didn't know, with an expression that said, "I knew it."
"Huh? How did he know I just arrived in the Asura Path?" The words of the White Bone Emperor startled Zhuge Xiang. He looked at the White Bone Emperor in surprise. Judging from his words, he clearly already knew that Zhuge Xiang had just arrived in the Asura Path.
However, before Zhuge Xiang could even ask, the White Bone Emperor began to explain the situation within the Asura Path to Zhuge Xiang in a leisurely manner.
It turns out that there are Nine Great Emperor in the entire Asura Path. It can be said that the Nine Great Emperor in the Asura Path are like true monarchs, controlling the entire Asura Path world. The Five Emperors are subordinate to the five Great Emperors, each assisting their own Great Emperor in managing the affairs under their command.
If we consider the Nine Great Emperor as the rulers of nine kingdoms in the Asura Path, then the Five Emperors are the prime ministers under the five rulers. Therefore, although the names of the Five Emperors are very prestigious, they belong to different factions. As for the relationship between the Savage Axe Emperor and the White Bone Emperor, they are superior and subordinate.
If the Great Emperor is the monarch, then the Asura Emperor is the important minister. After all, there are only a few dozen Asura Emperor in the entire Asura Path. Divided among the Nine Great Emperor, each of them only has a handful of Asura Emperor at their disposal.
The Savage Axe Emperor and the White Bone Emperor belong to the same camp. Although both are important ministers under the Great Emperor, there is still a difference between the Emperor level and the King level.
"I see. The Nine Great Emperor are like nine monarchs." Zhuge Xiang nodded and said.
In the past few days, Zhuge Xiang and Mo Lingna have been traveling in the Asura Path and have gained some understanding of Asura Path affairs. However, this understanding is limited to the interpersonal relationships and spiritual outlook of the Asura Path. If it weren't for the White Bone Emperor's detailed explanation, Zhuge Xiang would have been completely unaware of the overall situation within the Asura Path. It turns out that the power structure of the Asura Path is like this.
"So, the Savage Axe Emperor and you are both under the same Great Emperor. Then, have you come to me today to seek revenge for the Savage Axe Emperor?" Having understood the situation in the Asura Path and the relationship between the White Bone Emperor and the Savage Axe Emperor, Zhuge Xiang asked.
Zhuge Xiang didn't quite believe this, but besides this explanation, he couldn't think of any other reason why the White Bone Emperor Zhuge Xiang seek him out, or even interrupt his Duel with the Fish Blade Emperor.
"Get revenge? Hahaha..." Upon hearing Zhuge Xiang's words, the White Bone Emperor shook his head as if he had heard something amusing and said, "In our Asura Path, there is no such thing as getting revenge. Whether you can defeat your opponent depends on yourself, and no one will ask for help. The grudge between you and the Savage Axe Emperor is perfectly normal in the Asura Path. If I had to get revenge for him every time, wouldn't I become his professional bodyguard?"
"Since that's not it, then why did you come to see me today?" Zhuge Xiang didn't doubt the White Bone Emperor's words, or rather, his answer was within Zhuge Xiang's expectations. But precisely because of this, Zhuge Xiang were not related, they were just strangers who met by chance, so why did the White Bone Emperor come to see him?
"Alright, I won't beat around the bush with you anymore." Seeing that Zhuge Xiang seemed to be losing patience, the White Bone Emperor didn't waste any more time and directly stated his reason. "I've come to see you today because of the Great Emperor's orders."
"The Great Emperor?" Zhuge Xiang was even more confused now. He didn't even recognize the White Bone Emperor, so how could the Great Emperor behind him know about him? And even send the White Bone Emperor specifically to find him?
"The title of the Great Emperor is Great Emperor Xuan Luo. Now you should know that, right?" Seeing the confused look in Zhuge Xiang's eyes, the White Bone Emperor spoke to Zhuge Xiang.
Although it was a question, his expression was one of certainty, as if he was certain that Zhuge Xiang would understand the whole story once he heard the name of the Great Emperor Xuan Luo.
"Great Emperor Xuan Luo?" Upon hearing this, Zhuge Xiang was slightly taken aback, then reacted, a look of joy appearing on his face. His gaze towards the White Bone Emperor softened, becoming less wary and more affectionate. How could Zhuge Xiang not know the name Xuanluo? The Founding Ancestor the Asura Sect was named "Xuanluo."
The Asura Sect has existed for thousands of years. According to the Asura Sect records, its Founding Ancestor, Xuanluo, fought against nine peerless experts in the final battle against the remaining powerhouses of the Six Nations. He perished, and a wisp of his battle spirit, drawn by the Asura Path, entered it. Unexpectedly, thousands of years later, Patriarch Xuanluo actually achieved the position of Great Emperor in the Asura Path?
Upon hearing the name Xuanluo, Zhuge Xiang finally understood. Great Emperor Xuan Luo, one of the Nine Great Emperor of the Asura Path, was the Founding Ancestor of the Asura Sect. It seemed that although the Asura Path was different from the Mortal Realm, the Asura Sect and the Patriarch Xuanluo could still maintain contact. Therefore, the Patriarch Xuanluo knew that he had come to the Asura Path, and thus sent the White Bone Emperor to find him.
"Actually, the Great Emperor sent me to find you because he has a task for you," the White Bone Emperor said, noticing the change in Zhuge Xiang's eyes and realizing that Zhuge Xiang had lowered his guard.
"I wonder what task the Patriarch has to entrust to me?" Zhuge Xiang asked upon hearing the White Bone Emperor's words. Since they were all family, there was no need for formalities, so Zhuge Xiang readily agreed.
"The Great Emperor has decreed that you will Winning the Championship in this Sacred War," the White Bone Emperor said, revealing the task that the Great Emperor Xuan Luo had given to Zhuge Xiang.
"What? Winning the Championship?" Upon hearing this, Zhuge Xiang exclaimed in a low voice. He never expected that the task given to him by Patriarch Xuanluo would be to Winning the Championship in this Sacred War.
Please, this Sacred War isn't just about the Asura King level; it's about all the powerful figures of the Asura Path gathering together. Although Zhuge Xiang is very confident in his strength, Winning the Championship is easier said than done. Not to mention Five Emperors like the Purple Emperor and the White Bone Emperor, even against someone like the Fish Blade Emperor, Zhuge Xiang doesn't have an absolute guarantee of victory.
"Let my husband Winning the Championship? Forget about Great Emperor Xuan Luo, do you think it's even possible?" Before Zhuge Xiang could speak, Mo Lingna couldn't hold back any longer and asked the White Bone Emperor, "Can Zhuge Xiang really win the Winning the Championship from so many Asura Emperors and the Five Emperors?"
Mo Lingna came to the Asura Path with Zhuge Xiang. Mo Lingna was well aware of Zhuge Xiang's thoughts. Although she and Zhuge Xiang participated in this Sacred War, they were not there to Winning the Championship.
Their only goal was to use this Sacred War as an opportunity to improve their strength in the life-or-death battle, nothing more. As for Winning the Championship? Mo Lingna and Zhuge Xiang had never even considered that.
"Indeed, with your current strength, Winning the Championship is impossible. Leaving aside the Thunder Flame Emperor, the leader of the Five Emperors, even I could defeat you," the White Bone Emperor said, not angry at Mo Lingna's words, but nodding in agreement. However, he then changed the subject, saying, "But since the Great Emperor has said this, he must have his reasons. Moreover, since the Great Emperor is allowing you to Winning the Championship, how could he not be helping you?"
As he spoke, the White Bone Emperor flipped his hand, and a jade scroll appeared in his palm. The scroll unfurled automatically, and an extremely Profound Mysteries Runes flew out from it, finally landing on Zhuge Xiang's arm, imprinting itself firmly on Zhuge Xiang's arm like a tattoo.
"What is this?" Zhuge Xiang asked, looking at the Profound Mysteries patterns that had appeared on his arm.
Although Zhuge Xiang couldn't understand the mysterious pattern, Zhuge Xiang could sense that it contained a powerful and domineering force, enough to easily destroy an Asura Emperor.
"This is the Eye of Judgment bestowed upon you by the Great Emperor. With a thought, you can unleash unparalleled power and activate the will of the Asura Path to judge the target before you. This strike would severely injure even beings like us at the Five Emperors level. This move can only be used once, so you must use it with caution." Looking at the tattoo-like pattern on Zhuge Xiang's arm, even the White Bone Emperor felt a deep sense of dread.
With the Eye of Judgment at his disposal, even though Zhuge Xiang's strength wasn't considered particularly formidable by the White Bone Emperor, the White Bone Emperor dared not underestimate him. He was well aware of the Eye of Judgment's power; it drew upon the will of the Asura Path to attack its target. Within the Asura Path, who could withstand such an attack?
"Just this one move?" Although he was very pleased with the Eye of Judgment, Zhuge Xiang curled his lips, looking very dissatisfied, and said, "In the Sacred War, there are many strong people gathered. There are four other Emperor-level experts like you. With just this one move, how could I possibly Winning the Championship?"
As he spoke, Zhuge Xiang's gaze swept over the White Bone Emperor, muttering to himself, "Besides this Eye of Judgment, is there any other help? For example, an incredibly powerful Cultivation Technique, or even ten or eight Immortal Artifact Demon Artifact?"
"You..." Looking at Zhuge Xiang's appearance and listening to his muttering, the White Bone Emperor was somewhat amused and exasperated. He said irritably, "Get lost! Immortal Demon Artifact Immortal Artifact Demon Artifact, ten or eight? Do you think they're like cabbages growing on the roadside? Even I, the White Immortal Artifact White Bone Emperor, only have one Demon Artifact." (To be continued...)
