A golden Giant Octopus guarded the entrance to the inheritance site, and the powerhouses from both the Ancient Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Court did not resume their battle.
If True Lord Ningfeng's side and Gu Feng Great Emperor's side began fighting, the entrance to the inheritance site would inevitably be caught in the crossfire.
When that happened, the golden Giant Octopus would make its move!
Though the golden Giant Octopus appeared easy to talk to, anyone who attacked the entrance to the inheritance site—even if a stray ripple of energy landed near it—would incur the golden Giant Octopus's hostility!
When Lao Jun struck earlier, the Nine-Character Mantra had transformed into nine blazing suns and descended. Naturally, the golden Giant Octopus could not possibly go after a Supreme, so it had merely blocked the attack.
But if everyone present began fighting and the aftershocks affected the entrance to the inheritance site, then as the Sea King, the golden Giant Octopus would surely step in and clear the field!
Everyone present was suppressed by the power of the Annihilation Sea, their strength dropping by an entire major realm. Yet the golden Giant Octopus was wholly unaffected. Its strength could absolutely sweep through everyone present.
Before long, the Heavenly Court and the Ancient Immortal Realm each selected a group of outstanding God Emperor prodigies, one hundred from each side, to enter the inheritance site together.
Though both factions had many God Emperors, there was only one entrance. If they wanted every God Emperor to enter, who knew how much time it would take.
Thus, they intended to send in a group of powerful God Emperor prodigies. At the peak of the God Emperor realm, all of them possessed strength above their peers. Among top-tier races, they could be considered Heavenly Prides!
