"Dreaming of defying heaven? No one has ever done it. The Eastern Emperor is bound to regret this!"
"Indeed. Just look at Gai Jiuyou. The Azure Emperor suppressed him for so long that he was nearly ruined completely. Only today did he have the chance to make up for that regret and truly become a Great Emperor."
"His path has been too smooth. In the end, he is simply too young and hotheaded!"
Meanwhile, within the various Life Forbidden Zones.
They had failed to stop Gai Jiuyou from attaining the Dao.
Although those Supremes felt some regret.
They could not help feeling a measure of relief as well.
Their reluctance to emerge was certainly partly because they did not want to waste their precious vitality.
More importantly, however, they had seen how heaven-defying the Eastern Emperor was and believed that even if the Carefree Heavenly Venerate underwent ultimate sublimation and returned to his peak, he might not be able to slay him.
After all, while his true body was undergoing the tribulation, the Eastern Emperor had only deployed his Dao Body. He had not even brought out Lingbao Heavenly Venerable's Killing Formation, yet the Carefree Heavenly Venerate had been unable to suppress him and had instead fought him to a standstill.
Even if the Dao Body could only exist for a limited time, should a life-threatening crisis arise, the Eastern Emperor was arrogant but not stupid. How could he possibly refrain from using Lingbao Heavenly Venerable's Killing Formation?
One could imagine what would happen if the Eastern Emperor himself personally presided over it.
It would be almost equivalent to a Flawless Great Emperor personally directing it, and the killing formation would then become terrifying beyond measure.
The Number One Killing Formation of All Time was not merely an empty title.
