Emperor's Threshold
Cult Master Moller had already experienced Tang Miao's arrogance before, so he didn't react much.
After all, they do have the capability.
Whether it's the Heterodox Court or the Holy Court of Judgment, the only ones who could defeat Tang Miao in a one-on-one fight are probably those few big shots.
After all, he had experienced Tang Miao's strength firsthand last time.
The Judgment Mage behind him were also angry, but they were still somewhat afraid of the totem creature in front of them.
Even though everyone present was a fourth-tier super-level mage, it was precisely because of this that they could feel just how powerful the Totem Beast before them truly was...
"Let's go!" In the end, Cult Master Moller chose to ignore Tang Miao.
His decision relieved the subsequent Judgment Mage and the Heterodox Judgment Cult.
Now that the other party had left, Tang Miao naturally wouldn't cause trouble for no reason.
However, he was not in a hurry to return to China. Instead, he headed towards Greece.
Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've seen Asha Ruiya's. This little brat isn't like Ailin, who can be left alone and doesn't cause any trouble. She's the kind who can cause a ton of trouble.
So, after thinking it over, I figured I should go see her...
On the way to Greece, Apas emerged from the Contract Space looking sleepy.
"You served that fox?" Apas asked in an interrogative tone as soon as she came out.
"How could that be? I'm so strong, she must have been conquered by leaning against the wall," Tang Miao replied.
"You really have audacity." Apas's lips twitched slightly.
She really hadn't expected this man to be so bold!
They dare to touch Nine-tailed Fox, Emperor Level being? Aren't they afraid the other party will drain them dry??
"What's there to be afraid of when her strength is suppressed?" Tang Miao said dismissively.
"Don't you know that at her level, one can absorb your magical energy to restore oneself?" Apas asked again.
"Um??"
Tang Miao was no longer calm!
Besides, how the hell did he know about this!
"Why didn't you tell me sooner, you snake woman? Do you do this all the time?" Tang Miao asked Apas with a questioning look.
"Are you stupid! If I could do that, would you still be suppressing me like this?"
Apas rolled her eyes, then continued, "After reaching the Emperor realm, you gain some special abilities. I didn't know this before; I only learned it after this advancement."
Although the Medusa race cannot be called ancient creatures, their rank is among the top of tens of millions of Demon Beast. With each advancement in their realm, they awaken many memories.
Demon Beast are strange like that; they can learn about things they've never heard of before once they reach a certain level.
"Oh, so how is the Nine-tailed Fox recovering now? How long will it take her to regain her Emperor- level strength?" Tang Miao asked again.
Since it was the first time the Nine-tailed Fox didn't understand, I let it go.
However, the second time she insisted on having it, seemingly very greedy. Tang Miao had been suspicious then, but he never expected there to be such a hidden agenda.
"She has now recovered to the top level of a monarch, and is even almost back to the strength of a half-step Emperor," Apas replied.
"Holy crap!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Miao immediately sensed something was wrong!
This has only happened twice, and this damn fox has already regained so much strength. If it happens a few more times, or if we wait a year or two, won't I be finished?
"What are you afraid of? If you don't touch her now, it will take her five or six years to recover her Emperor strength," Apas continued.
"Um??"
To be honest, when he first heard that this dead fox was almost back to the power of a half-step Emperor, he was really afraid that in a year or two, the Nine-tailed Fox would recover its full strength.
Even he wasn't entirely confident that he could advance to the level of forbidden spells within a year or two.
"Haven't she already recovered to the level of a half-step Emperor? How come it took her so long to recover to the strength of Emperor?" Tang Miao asked, puzzled.
"Do you know that three to five top-tier Supreme Level monarchs are not as powerful as a single False Emperor, and similarly, three to five False Emperors are not as powerful as a single Emperor!"
"If reaching the Emperor Level were really that easy, what would be left for humanity in this world?" Apas rolled her eyes at Tang Miao.
It's not easy for humans to reach the level of forbidden spells, just as it's extremely difficult for Demon Beast to advance to the Emperor.
Among Demon Beast, the True Dragon race is quite capable of reaching the Emperor realm. However, regardless of which side the Dragon Clan belongs to, their reproductive ability is particularly weak.
The world is fair.
Humans can advance to the level of forbidden spells by using a large amount of resources and the Earth Core. Even if one's talent is insufficient, as long as there are enough resources, it is not a problem to create one.
Of course, even the world's richest person might not be able to possess resources of this caliber.
Because many things truly cannot be bought with money.
Demon Beast are different; once they reach the pinnacle of Supreme Monarch, it is extremely difficult for them to advance further.
False Emperor is a huge threshold, while a legitimate Emperor Level is an insurmountable mountain!
At this point, it's no longer just a matter of resources.
A strong bloodline is also required!
And an incredible opportunity!
Of course, any Demon Beast that crosses this threshold is absolutely powerful enough to sweep across an entire region. The strength of a mere beginner Emperor would require ten single-element Forbidden Curse Mage among human mages to fight against.
There is even a high possibility that sacrifices will be made.
Moreover, even so, it would likely only be able to injure or repel them, but killing them would still be quite difficult.
As for Middle Emperor, it would require three to four or more Forbidden Curse Mage from among the human Forbidden Curse Mage, and the number of them would need to be maintained at seven to eight, in order to barely contend with him.
Of course, it's not to say that a Forbidden Curse Mage cannot fight Emperor one-on-one. For example, with a powerful Heavenly Seed and the assistance of top-quality magical artifacts, vessels, and magical tools, a forbidden spell of three or four elements is enough to fight a low-level Emperor and remain undefeated.
With full mastery of forbidden spells and under certain conditions, one might be able to deal with Middle Emperor.
But that only applies if you don't get killed...
As for those who reach the level of Great Emperor, there has never been a precedent of them being killed throughout history. As for the Rooftop Emperor, the only possible instance of one falling was during a battle between Demon Beast...
Of course, humanity is not entirely without fighting capabilities.
For example, battle formations!
The combined power of a Forbidden Curse Mage, along with hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of other mages of the same lineage, would be absolutely devastating.
Tang Miao nodded, seemingly understanding, and upon reflection, it seemed that his current strength was actually the most realistic assessment.
After transforming into a demon, she did indeed easily possess power that many Great Demons could not. However, that power was merely a temporary burst of strength generated by the fusion of Demon Blood and the power of all of Apas's Contract Beast.
However, without the Demon Element, he could only reach the level of a mid-level Supreme Monarch at best.
This was even with his possession of Heavenly Seed lightning, ice, and fire powers, level nine spiritual power, the assistance of the Shadow Fiend clan from the Dark Plane, and the Magic Tool crafted from the Black Dragon Emperor's alien scales...
If you can't take a beating, what's the point of talking about stepping on a monarch?
