"Um..."
After a moment of contemplation, the Void King Emptiness glanced at the numerous Emperor Venerable and slowly spoke:
"As everyone knows, the internal spatial structure of the Divine Throne is extremely complex, with nested layers, and even I cannot see the whole picture."
"Especially the fifth floor, I can't even sense where I am."
"The mysterious disappearance of Quasi-Emperor Taiyu and Dongfang Jinglong was clearly premeditated... I suspect they probably went to the fifth level."
These words shocked everyone.
"The fifth floor?!"
The Great Emperor Hunyuan's expression changed, and he pressed for an answer:
Are you sure?
Void King's face was somewhat gloomy, and he said in a muffled voice:
"Although I'm reluctant to admit it, this is probably the most likely explanation."
"They haven't left the Divine Throne, nor are they on the fourth or first three levels, and it's impossible for them to be hiding right under the noses of so many of us."
"The only place to go is the fifth level of the Divine Throne!"
His tone clearly revealed annoyance and a hint of envy.
You must know, that's the fifth level of the Divine Throne!
Legend has it that the lineage of Great Emperor Kunyu and his most precious treasures are stored on the fifth floor, a place that no one has been able to reach for millions of years.
His lifelong wish was to reach the fifth level and obtain the secrets to achieving the Third Divine Realm.
But now--
But someone beat him to it!
With the disappearance of Dongfang Jinglong, his wish seemed even more distant and hopeless.
"Damn it..."
Upon hearing the words of the Quasi-Emperor Void King, many Emperor Venerable' expressions turned ugly, their hearts filled with sourness and resentment.
If it weren't for an unexpected event--
At this very moment, they should be the ones on the fifth floor.
Those two scoundrels!
The old man in the golden robe gritted his teeth and said:
"I propose that we immediately issue arrest warrants for Quasi-Emperor Taiyu and Dongfang Jinglong, targeting the five major alliances and even the entire Myriad Dharma Dao Domain."
"I refuse to believe that those two scoundrels can hide on the fifth floor forever and refuse to come out."
"Once they come out, they'll definitely reveal their whereabouts. Then we'll join forces to suppress and subdue them, forcing them to reveal the secret to the fifth level!"
Upon hearing Emperor Venerable nodded in agreement.
Of course, none of the Emperor Venerable mentioned it, tacitly refraining from mentioning it, in case those two emerged from the fifth level with a surge in strength, or if the King of Creation regained his power.
This outcome was so bad that no one wanted to even consider it.
"Oh, right, there's one more thing..."
Void King's expression shifted slightly. He turned to look at the Great Emperor Hunyuan and said:
"If I remember correctly, Brother Hunyuan once said that the Quasi-Emperor Taiyu was brought into the fourth level by your alliance's Emperor Venerable Qinglu."
"And that Quasi-Emperor Taiyu had clearly long ago colluded with Dongfang Jinglong, working together in wicked ways!"
"Where is the Emperor Venerable Qinglu now?"
The Great Emperor Hunyuan frowned and said in a deep voice:
"I don't know where Emperor Venerable Qinglu has gone."
"I tried sending her a message, but it went unanswered... I'm afraid she has temporarily left Kunyu Continent and entered the Sea of Chaos, and I can't contact her anymore."
"As for the reason, I don't know."
As he spoke, he stared at the Quasi-Emperor Void King and said bluntly:
"As for what the Void King said, it's probably too arbitrary."
"We cannot assume that my elders were involved in this matter simply because of Quasi-Emperor Taiyu."
"If we follow your line of reasoning, wouldn't I, as the leader of the Holy Protection Alliance, also be a suspect?"
Upon hearing this, the old man in the golden robe beside him spoke with a forced smile:
"That's not necessarily true."
"If she is not a suspect, why would she be in such a hurry to escape from the Kunyu Continent?"
"Snort!"
The Great Emperor Hunyuan snorted coldly and asked in return:
"Then your Red Sea Alliance's Quasi-Emperor Formless did not participate in the Gate of Sealing operation, and his whereabouts are currently unknown."
"Could he also be a suspect? Going further, could you, as the alliance leader, also be a suspect?"
"You..."
A hint of annoyance flashed across the old man's face, and he was about to speak in rebuttal when...
"Alright, alright..."
Another powerful Emperor Venerable stepped in to smooth things over, saying:
"Now is not the time to start a conflict."
His gaze swept over the numerous Emperor Venerable, and he slowly said:
"In this upheaval at the Gate of Sealing, all five of our alliances suffered heavy losses, with more than twenty Emperor Venerable perishing."
"Such a big matter deserves an explanation."
"I suggest we first handle the alliance's affairs and issue the wanted notices, while keeping a close eye on the movements of the Divine Throne, to see when that Quasi-Emperor Taiyu and Dongfang Jinglong will appear."
Hearing his words:
The numerous Emperor Venerable exchanged glances and nodded in silence.
Things have come to this point--
Even if they joined forces and managed to overturn the entire order of the Myriad Dharma Dao Domain, there was no better way.
Beyond the Kunyu Continent lies the Sea of Chaos.
"Call..."
Emperor Venerable Qinglu let out a long breath, his expression much more relaxed:
"We finally escaped."
After leaving the Divine Throne:
Without pausing, the two of them traversed the void and crossed the entire Kunyu Continent, hiding in the Sea of Chaos.
Only at this stage can we be considered basically safe.
Even though the various dangers in the Sea of Chaos are almost negligible to the Emperor Venerable, the chaotic Law of Space still provide the best cover.
Even for Quasi-Emperor Void King, it would be difficult to effectively track them under such circumstances.
" Qinglu, you don't need to be so nervous."
The Emperor Venerable Baihua smiled and said softly:
"The attention of those Emperor Venerable is probably all drawn to Quasi-Emperor Taiyu and Dongfang Jinglong."
"My presence hasn't been exposed, so it's unlikely they'll come after us anytime soon."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Venerable Qinglu sighed.
"It's better to be safe than sorry."
"You've been trapped for hundreds of thousands of years, and you've finally gained your freedom. It's best to be cautious."
Upon hearing this, the Emperor Venerable Baihua said softly:
"Actually, these past hundreds of thousands of years have been like a hazy, unconscious sleep for me, and now I've just woken up."
A trace of sorrow appeared in Emperor Venerable Qinglu's eyes as he whispered:
"But the lifespan you've lost is real!"
"The scene of the three of us sisters, full of youthful vigor and dominating Kunyu, is still vivid in my memory, as if it were yesterday."
"But in the blink of an eye, Ziyuan died. When we met again, we were both very old, like two old women..."
As she spoke, her tone grew increasingly somber:
"Over the years, my cultivation in the outside world has improved considerably, and my lifespan has also increased somewhat."
"But you truly don't have much Lifespan..."
The thought that her best friend, who had finally regained her freedom, would not live much longer filled her with extreme sorrow.
"Etc!"
The Emperor Venerable Baihua suddenly changed his expression and interrupted her:
Something's not right...
A hint of shock and unease flickered in her eyes:
"My Lifespan... seems to have only lasted a little over ten thousand years?!"
