Fake Heavenly Grave
"Master, what about the plan?" Lin Zi didn't even ask where the Spirit Emperor had been for the past two or three thousand years.
The first thing she asked the Spirit Emperor was about her plans before she left.
Because Richard was an outsider, she couldn't ask too many questions.
Furthermore, she herself didn't know much, only that her master had a scheme in place, even one involving her. However, she was willing to be used by her master, even if it might cost her her life.
"No need, the objective has been achieved, all the plans are no longer necessary," said the Spirit Emperor.
"Okay." Lin Zi nodded, then fell silent and quietly followed behind the Spirit Emperor.
Just like always in the Spirit Emperor Palace, she stood quietly in the corner.
"Alright, let's go. Go inside, or those people inside will tear your palace down," Richard said.
He then opened a passage leading directly into the Fake Heavenly Grave.
The Heaven-Trapping Bell that covered him couldn't stop him.
Although this cat bell is considered a pretty good Divine Artifact in this world, even the Heavenly King of this world can't easily break it.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been used by martial artists in the Human Realm as a protective shield for traps, preventing other martial artists from escaping.
"Oh dear, don't break my Heaven-Trapping Bell!" Cang Mao, distressed by the loss of her bell.
"Don't worry, the outer bell wasn't damaged," Richard said calmly.
After passing through the Heaven-Trapping Bell, the group headed straight into the depths of the world.
Richard even maliciously concealed the group's whereabouts completely, just to see what expressions the powerful figures from various factions would have when they saw the Spirit Emperor.
Especially those on the New Martial Humans' side, including Zhang Tao who set up the scheme, were curious to see what kind of expressions they would have.
People don't mind the trouble when they're doing bad things.
So Richard was very enthusiastic about doing this and didn't find it troublesome at all.
The Spirit Emperor noticed his subtle actions.
My image of Richard as a strongman is crumbling. I don't understand why he, who was so serious before, would now be so ruthless as to try and frighten the weak.
Or is this his true personality?
Are all the strong members of this group like this?
The three people and one cat traversed a large area until they reached the Spirit Emperor Palace before stopping.
They encountered other people along the way, of course, but Richard concealed their presence, and those people couldn't see them, still busy fighting amongst themselves.
Especially for martial artists in the Human Realm, they are besieged by various forces as soon as they show their faces. It's tragic, truly tragic.
This represents the most elite group in the Three Realms, who are now locked in a fierce battle within this small Fake Heavenly Grave battlefield.
The weakest here would be a Peak patriarch or True King of a dynasty outside.
Title True God, Saint, and Heavenly King emerged one after another.
None of these people gave up in their quest for the chance to become emperor.
Of course, those below the Heavenly King level shouldn't even think about it; the opportunity to become an emperor is impossible for them.
Even if it falls into their hands, they won't be able to use it.
Those powerful individuals may not be unaware of these things, but they won't be satisfied until they witness them firsthand.
In order to lure in various forces, Fang Ping, Cang Mao, and Zhang Tao used real bait.
Using the Heavenly Emperor Jade Seal and Origin Fragment, they forged Fake Heavenly Grave True Heavenly Tomb, and spread the message that "the Heavenly Tomb has been opened and contains the inheritance of the Heavenly Court and the opportunity of Immortal Source."
Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to fool those old guys who have lived for tens of thousands of years.
The Heavenly Emperor Seal's Seal was kept sealed away in the deepest part of the Spirit Emperor's Palace.
It has to be said, Cang Mao is truly a darling of the heavens. His luck is simply unparalleled.
Countless powerful figures perished when the ancient Heavenly Court fell, but this guy not only escaped unscathed, he also casually picked up a whole bunch of Divine Artifact Divine Artifact —probably twenty or thirty.
It picked up the Heavenly Emperor Seal casually at that time.
Upon seeing the Spirit Emperor Palace, the Cang Mao lifted its leg and walked inside. Its cat bed was still inside, and this time it planned to take its cat bed with it.
This was a nest specially made for it by the Spirit Emperor; it's no less impressive than Divine Artifact.
Its later cat bed was nowhere near as good as this one.
Ignoring the guys outside attacking the barrier, the Spirit Emperor casually put away his palace.
At this moment, Richard removed the Divine Power that was concealed on the bodies of the men.
The movements of the three people and the cat were revealed to this group of powerful individuals.
"Cang Mao."
The first thing they noticed was the big, fat cat, Cang Mao.
There's no way around it; it's so big and conspicuous just sitting here.
"Spirit Emperor ----" This time, the veteran actor Zhen Wuwukai, the Heavenly King, really couldn't hold back anymore.
This guy usually hides his true strength, and he's evenly matched with everyone. He's Peak matched with the top-level opponents, the Emperor Level opponents, the Saint -level opponents, and even the Heavenly King -level opponents.
But this guy's true strength is at the Break Eight, only one step away from Break Nine.
It even concealed a Initial Martial Body that Break Eight.
He is a disciple of Yang God, a true veteran.
He turned to look at Zhang Tao, his eyes conveying a clear message: Kid, is this part of your script too?
Zhang Tao was helpless. He was only a little over a hundred years old, still a young man compared to the others here. How could he possibly know the Spirit Emperor?
He could only look at Cang Mao; of the three people and one cat who had suddenly appeared, Cang Mao was the only one he recognized.
At the same time, he cursed Cang Mao in his heart, knowing that Cang Mao could hear him.
He needs to go and find out some information from Cang Mao first.
Then he got a good beating from Cang Mao in the Origin Dao.
This cat's strength is off; he's almost at the Heavenly King Level now. How could this cat possibly beat him?
Zhang Tao looked at Cang Mao with a puzzled expression.
The Cang Mao looked on with pride. "What are you looking at? You think I'm the same as before? I'm super strong now!"
However, Zhang Tao couldn't care less about the minor issue of Cang Mao's unusual strength right now.
"Cang Mao, tell me quickly, what's going on? Why has the Spirit Emperor appeared? And is the Human Realm alright? Is it just the Spirit Emperor who appeared, or have all the other emperors appeared?"
"I don't know. The Spirit Emperor just appeared out of nowhere and came directly to the Liar School to find me."
Nothing's happening in the Human Realm. We just came from the Human Realm.
Other emperors? I don't know, I haven't seen any other emperors."Cang Mao answered his questions one by one.
"What is the purpose of the Spirit Emperor's visit here? And who are those two people beside him?" Zhang Tao continued to ask.
"Let's take back the Spirit Emperor Palace."
The two over there, one is Lin Zi, the Spirit Emperor's disciple, who takes care of the cats.
Another one is Richard. The Spirit Emperor says he's her friend. He's very strong, even stronger than the Spirit Emperor. Don't mess with the Human Emperor.
He was a good person; he gave the cat lots of good food.
"That--"
"Ugh, Human Emperor, you're so annoying. I don't want to answer anymore." Before Zhang Tao could ask any more questions, Cang Mao unilaterally cut off the contact.
In the Real World, Zhang Tao covered his head; he had been kicked out by Cang Mao.
He glared fiercely at the Cang Mao, then cautiously looked at Richard, who appeared to be an ordinary person. He had assumed that the Spirit Emperor was the strongest of the three, but it turned out there was someone even stronger than the Spirit Emperor hidden here.
That wretched Cang Mao! He only revealed so little information; there's so much more he wants to know.
He hasn't gotten much useful information yet.
Not only did the Heavenly Suppressing King recognize the Spirit Emperor, but other high-ranking officials of the ancient Heavenly Court, such as the Gan King, the King Kun, the Yue Ling Xun King, the Tianji - Sea Suppressing Envoy, the son of the Western West Emperor, and the daughter of the North Emperor, also recognized her.
After all, these people held high status in ancient times and were able to see her frequently.
In an instant, everyone who recognized the Spirit Emperor's identity panicked.
Where is this? The Spirit Emperor's palace.
What are they doing? Attacking the Spirit Emperor's bedchamber.
In ancient times, this would have been a grave disrespect to the emperor, and being beaten to death by the Spirit Emperor would not have been unjust.
At the same time, he couldn't help but think to himself, "If you were here, you should have come out sooner. Why did you have to wait until we were almost breaking the barrier before you came out? Is the evidence conclusive?"
Look at the mess this has made.
"Your Spirit Emperor, has my father returned as well?" Tianji, no longer bothering to feign madness, hurriedly asked.
Yue Ling glanced at him. "You're quite the actor, aren't you? Keep pretending."
"And my father, the Emperor," she asked as well.
"Has my father returned as well?" the King Kun asked in return. Who doesn't have an emperor as a father?
"The West Emperor and the North Emperor haven't come out yet. As for the Earth Emperor? Hasn't he always been here?" The Spirit Emperor didn't answer. Given her personality, she would never have the patience to explain to these people. However, Richard kindly answered from the side.
As he spoke, he kept glancing at Hong Kun, the son of the Earth Emperor.
Speaking of which, the Earth Emperor was quite a character. He was the only one among the emperors who escaped the Origin Land ahead of time, and he even plotted to send all three of his sons to the emperor level.
Unfortunately, they ultimately failed to defeat the Heavenly Emperor.
They had no choice but to sacrifice their entire family's path and place their hopes on Fang Ping.
This is a truly ruthless character. Before Zhan Heavenly Emperor was surrounded and killed, he advised Zhan Heavenly Emperor not to hold back and even wanted to fight against Heavenly Emperor together with Zhan Heavenly Emperor.
Unfortunately, the Zhan Heavenly Emperor showed mercy to the other emperors who had been kind to him in his path to enlightenment. In the end, he was surrounded and killed on the spot by these emperors.
Left with no other choice, the Earth Emperor could only continue to endure and secretly plot.
He had actually been paying attention to Fang Ping all along, and he knew that Fang Ping was the backup plan of the Zhan Heavenly Emperor.
Richard casually dropped a bombshell that shocked everyone present.
What does this mean? The Earth Emperor has always been in the Three Realms?
In that instant, many powerful figures couldn't help but think of the Demon Emperor Dynasty from thousands of years ago. Back then, they had indeed sensed the aura of an emperor, so was that the Earth Emperor?
Tianji and Yue Ling were too preoccupied to ask about their father's condition.
If the Earth Emperor is always present in the Three Realms, doesn't that mean their actions are always under his Earth Emperor eye?
The mere thought sent chills down the spines of the powerful figures present.
Why doesn't the Earth Emperor ever show himself?
As for Zhang Tao, he focused all his attention on Heavenly Suppressing King, completely unaware of these ancient and prehistoric events.
They were completely unfamiliar with these emperors.
Only Old Ghost Zhen is good at hiding things and might know about these things.
Others, even the other Peak in Zhenxing City, were actually just figures from the sect era more than a thousand years ago.
As for people like Zhang Tao, Li Zhen, and Nan Yunyue, they are newcomers who have only reached the Peak their cultivation in recent decades.
"Why are you looking at me? If I knew, why would I still be guarding the Human Realm? I would have run away long ago," the Heavenly Suppressing King said irritably.
"Senior is joking. If my father were still alive, would I need to hide like this?" King Kun vehemently denied.
Wasn't this just asking for trouble? If it weren't for the fact that the Spirit Emperor was there, he might have actually attacked Richard to teach him a lesson about not being able to speak recklessly.
"Maybe." Richard didn't care whether he admitted it or not.
He only cares about revealing information; whether these people believe it or not is none of his business.
"Who knows what your family is thinking?" Zhang Tao retorted from the side. He wished he could tell the whole world that the Earth Emperor's family had grand ambitions, and that they should stop focusing on the Human Realm and start focusing on the Earth Emperor's family instead.
The Heavenly Suppressing King wished he could gag him with a cloth. Didn't he hear? The Earth Emperor has been here all along. Shouldn't he be a little more polite?
Zhang Tao didn't care at all. They were already enemies; would being polite make the Earth Emperor spare them?
Since I'm going to die anyway, I might as well end it quickly.
Indeed, Zhang Tao was somewhat desperate at this moment. Now that the Emperor had appeared, the situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable for the Human Realm.
It seems even the old ghost in the town can't hold on any longer.
Fang Ping had not yet grown up, and the Human Realm was utterly powerless against these emperors.
"Did Hong Yu really die back then?" someone suddenly asked.
Yue Ling looked at this person.
Hong Yu is the second son of the Earth Emperor and Hong Kun's younger brother. He is also Yue Ling's fiancé.
The brothers Hong Yu and Hong Kun were at odds, Yue Ling always suspected that his death was related to Hong Kun.
"Who knows? Why don't we hear what King Kun has to say?" Heavenly Suppressing King urged.
The others knew, of course, that this guy had ulterior motives, but they were genuinely curious about the circumstances surrounding Hong Yu's death.
"When the Demon Emperor Divine Court was established, that imperial aura was undeniable. King Kun, won't you explain where that imperial aura came from?" Gan King asked.
He is a true veteran powerhouse, the head of the Eight Kings, and he rose to power through his own strength, unlike King Kun who relied on his father to gain power.
"How would I know? If I had known, wouldn't I have gotten my hands on that thing long ago? Why would I have needed to snatch the Heavenly Emperor Seal?" King Kun was too lazy to explain.
He only knew that Old Deng had a plan, but he didn't know the details of Old Deng's plan at all, so what could he say?
Most importantly, you've probably forgotten that our lives are still in the hands of the Spirit Emperor.
"Your Spirit Emperor, our presumptuous attempt to spy on the Emperor Palace was a grave offense. We beg Your Spirit Emperor's forgiveness for the sake of my father."
He completely ignored these people and turned to the Spirit Emperor.
I got nothing this time, a wasted trip.
Now I only wish to leave safely; what does the Heavenly Emperor Seal? I don't want to think about it anymore.
The others weren't unaware of this, but they knew the Spirit Emperor had a bad temper, so they didn't even dare to beg for mercy and just waited for the Spirit Emperor's final Judgment.
Only a few descendants of emperors and those who Break Eight dare to ask a few questions.
Of course, if the Spirit Emperor wanted them dead, they would fight to the death.
Even if she dies, I'll try to break two of her teeth.
Other forms of apology are acceptable, but paying with one's life is not.
With one person taking the lead, others followed suit.
Yeah, why worry about all that? Let's just focus on staying alive first.
As for the Heavenly Emperor Seal and other good things, don't even think about it.
In the end, the Spirit Emperor did nothing to these powerful figures, and didn't even take the Heavenly Emperor Seal; he only took his own palace.
The materials used for the Heavenly Emperor Seal and the seals of the emperors were indeed very precious, but they were only of some use to the Heavenly King. For the emperors, they were of little use except as symbols of status.
The group of powerful individuals, who had been on tenterhooks, breathed a sigh of relief.
As the Spirit Emperor and his companions, along with the cat, departed, the powerful figures present exchanged glances, and one of them immediately lunged for the Heavenly Emperor Seal.
The Spirit Emperor might not be interested, but he is.
How could the others stand by and watch the Heavenly Emperor Seal be taken away? They all tried to stop it, and soon another chaotic battle broke out.
Regardless, let's get our hands on the Heavenly Emperor Seal first.
Emperors are beginning to emerge; they need to work even harder to improve their strength. Otherwise, their future will be uncertain.
