"Am I standing against everyone?"
Chen Qingyu chuckled upon hearing Emperor Huan Liang Jingtiao's words:
I'm afraid that's not necessarily true.
As he spoke, he glanced at the Great Emperor Wanxing to the side, raising an eyebrow:
"Sixth Senior Brother, what do you say?"
In a short time:
All the Half-Step Heavenly Lord present turned their gazes toward Great Emperor Wanxing.
Everyone knows very well:
The choice made by the Great Emperor Wanxing will directly influence, and even determine, the course of this battle and its ultimate outcome.
"..."
Great Emperor Wanxing remained silent for a long while before looking at Chen Qingyu, a complex expression on his face:
"Junior brother, I... I..."
He opened and closed his lips a few times, but he couldn't say anything more.
"Oh..."
Emperor Huan sneered and said slowly:
" Chen Qingyu!"
"Are you in such a hurry to force your senior brother to make a decision? Is this how you should act as a junior brother?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu's expression turned cold:
" Liang Jingtiao, when did it become your place to interrupt when we, the fellow disciples, are talking?"
Upon hearing this, the Emperor Huan scoffed:
" Chen Qingyu! You really think the Great Emperor Wanxing has gone mad and would support you?"
"Keep dreaming!"
"If he joins forces with us, we still have a one-in-three chance to collect Five Great Divine Artifacts and ascend to the Heavenly Lord."
"If he supports you, it's tantamount to giving up the chance to win the favor, severing his own path to Heavenly Lord, and cutting off his only chance of survival."
Upon hearing Great Emperor Wanxing gritted his teeth but remained silent.
He was born a million years ago. After being accepted as the sixth personal disciple by the Supreme Star Venerable, he has been striving towards the Realm of the Heavenly Lord.
As Liang Jingtiao of Emperor Huan said:
His Lifespan was almost over, and because he was Half-Step Heavenly Lord, he could not enjoy the " Gift of Eternal Life," and many methods of prolonging life were ineffective for him.
If he cannot seize the Five Great Divine Artifacts and obtain the "gift" to become Heavenly Lord, then he is destined to die young.
However, the idea of him joining forces with the Great Emperor Dongxu, the Emperor Huan, and others to fight against his junior brother, a situation he found difficult to accept, was also hard for him to accept.
No one could make this decision for him; only he could make it.
"Senior brother..."
Seeing the conflicted and struggling expression on the face of the Great Emperor Wanxing, Chen Qingyu smiled slightly and said gently:
"I understand you."
" The Realm of Heaven-Reaching is not only your lifelong pursuit and aspiration, but also your only hope."
"It's not just about ideals, it's about life and death."
"Since there can only be one winner, you certainly have the right to fight for yourself, and no one can use that to criticize you."
"Therefore, you don't need to feel awkward. Even if you choose to stand against me, I won't hold a grudge, much less cause a rift in our relationship."
He paused for a moment, then continued with a smile:
"To be honest, I've always wanted to learn from my senior brother, but I've never had the chance."
"Now, this is a good opportunity."
Hearing his words:
Great Emperor Wanxing took a deep breath, lowered his head, and sighed heavily.
"I'm sorry, junior brother..."
The white-haired old man and the dignified empress behind him changed their expressions slightly.
The Great Emperor Dongxu, the Emperor Huan, the Dark Emperor, and others, who were not far away, had smiles on their faces.
"It's alright, senior brother."
Chen Qingyu smiled, not caring.
He had long been prepared to fight against eleven Half-Step Heavenly Lord alone.
If his sixth senior brother hadn't been among these people, he wouldn't have bothered to speak; he would have already taken action.
No, what I mean is...
Great Emperor Wanxing raised his head and said solemnly:
"Your wish to fight me is likely to be dashed!"
As soon as he finished speaking:
He suddenly flicked his sleeve, and the " Five-Colored Heaven Altar " behind him rapidly shrank, transforming into a streak of light that shot towards Chen Qingyu.
"Junior brother! Catch!"
The unexpected happened, and everyone was stunned!
"Hahaha..."
Chen Qingyu was the first to react. He laughed loudly, suddenly stretched out his palm, and his Divine Power surged forth as he grabbed at the " Five-Colored Heaven Altar ".
"Okay! Senior brother!!"
"Not good!!"
The Great Emperor Dongxu, the Emperor Huan, and others immediately changed their expressions drastically!
They never expected that Great Emperor Wanxing would make such a choice in the end—to grant his junior brother's wish!
Chen Qingyu is not the Heavenly Emperor Chen of yesteryear. With his terrifying strength, he can completely control two or even three supreme artifacts at the same time!
Once he obtains the " Five-Colored Heaven Altar," everything will be over!
At the critical moment:
"Boom!" "Boom!"
The Great Emperor Dongxu and the Emperor Huan each unleashed the power of the " All-Heaven Creation Gate " and the " Qianyuan Spirit-Illuminating Mirror," sweeping towards the " Five-Colored Heaven Altar."
" Great Emperor Wanxing! You've gone mad!!"
As the Emperor Huan harnessed the power of his divine weapon, he screamed:
Do you know what you're doing?
"Of course I know!"
After making his choice, the Great Emperor Wanxing relaxed completely and casually said:
Even if I join forces with you and manage to defeat my junior brother by sheer luck, I will still have to fight for that slim chance of victory.
"They say it's a one-in-three chance, but are the other Half-Step Heavenly Lord just fools who will watch us decide the winner?"
"Instead of gambling on this small opportunity, let's do someone a favor and keep the benefits within the family..."
As he spoke, he shrugged and laughed nonchalantly:
"Of all the hardships throughout history, death is the only hurdle."
"I've lived a glorious and fulfilling life for millions of years, and that's enough!"
The Great Emperor Dongxu, enraged, roared repeatedly:
" Great Emperor Wanxing! You're a complete idiot!"
"Boom!" "Boom!"
The torrent formed by the power of space and the primordial energy completely blocked the power of the " All-Heaven Creation Gate " and the " Qianyuan Spirit-Illuminating Mirror ".
Just this one delay:
"Whoosh!"
The Five-Colored Heaven Altar was completely in Chen Qingyu's hands.
Without hesitation, Chen Qingyu immediately probed into the " Five-Colored Heaven Altar " with his divine sense and began refining it.
When the Great Emperor Wanxing threw out the " Five-Colored Heaven Altar," he had already dissolved his own divine imprint, allowing him to complete the refining in an instant.
The next moment:
"Boom!"
Five-colored divine light rose behind him, transforming into an overwhelming torrent, radiating the power and aura of heaven.
"It's over..."
The Great Emperor Dongxu, the Emperor Huan, and others turned deathly pale upon witnessing this scene, their eyes filled with despair.
The defection of the Great Emperor Wanxing has completely turned the tide of the battle.
Nowadays:
Chen Qingyu wielded three of the Five Great Divine Artifacts, giving him an unparalleled advantage; they had no hope of turning the tide.
No one expected that they would lose before the final battle even began!
"Hahaha..."
Chen Qingyu's laughter reverberated through the Milky Way. Standing with his hands behind his back, he said loudly:
" The Great Emperor Dongxu! The Emperor Huan!"
"Now that things have come to this, why don't you surrender?!"
