Suspicion, Secret Weapon

The Scarlet Emperor paused for a moment, then sneered, "What else could it be? It must be that Yan Yang was too careless and was ambushed by that brat!"

"Impossible." The White Emperor, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke, his voice cold and clear. "Although Yan Yang is impulsive, he is experienced in combat and cannot be easily ambushed. Moreover, even if it were an ambush, the gap between the Early Dao Union Dao Union Perfection cannot be bridged by a sneak attack."

The Azure Emperor nodded and said, "The White Emperor is right. Yan Yang cultivates your Fire Element Origin Principle, and his strength is considered to be above average among those at the Dao Union Perfection."

Even if one of the three of us were to take action and try to kill Yan Yang, it would take considerable effort. How could we possibly kill an outsider in the Early Dao Union so easily?"

The Scarlet Emperor frowned and calmed down.

Upon closer reflection, he also felt that something was amiss.

"So what do you mean?" the Scarlet Emperor asked.

The Azure Emperor pondered for a moment, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. "I suspect it must be the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus's doing."

"Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus?!"

The Scarlet Emperor and the White Emperor's expressions changed simultaneously.

The four words "Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus" were like a curse, causing the three Dao Lords who had ruled the Primordial Beginning Dao Realm for three million years to feel deep fear and disgust.

Three million years ago, a Primordial Divine Light descended upon the chaos, evolving into the Primordial Beginning Dao Realm.

In the Primordial Divine Light, four beings were born: the Azure Emperor, the Scarlet Emperor, the White Emperor, and a Qinglian.

That Qinglian lotus was the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus.

It is the embodiment of the primordial life force of the Primordial Beginning Dao Realm, born from the same origin as the three Dao Lords, yet possessing a purer primordial power than the three Dao Lords.

In order to dominate the Primordial Beginning Dao Realm, the three Dao Lords joined forces to launch an attack on the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus.

After an earth-shattering battle, the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus was ultimately no match for the combined forces of the three Dao Lords. It was shattered into pieces, its origin damaged, and it disappeared without a trace.

However, all three Dao Lords knew that the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus had not truly died.

Its lotus seeds are scattered in every corner of the Primordial Beginning Dao Realm. As long as one lotus seed sprouts, it may be able to revive.

For millions of years, the three Dao Lords have been searching for the seeds of the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus, wanting to destroy it completely, but they have never succeeded.

"That's right, it must be the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus!" the Azure Emperor said with certainty. "Besides the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus, I can't think of anything else that could give a cultivator in the Early Dao Union Realm the strength to kill a cultivator in the Dao Union Perfection Realm."

The Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus contains the power of the Primordial Beginning Origin, which can greatly enhance a cultivator's cultivation level and combat strength.

The White Emperor nodded and said, "Moreover, the Taichu cave abode was created not long ago."

The reason why the True Person Taichu was our enemy back then was because he received help from the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus.

Although the three of us killed him and even destroyed the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus.

However, the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus may have left behind a seed, waiting for an opportunity to be reborn.

That wild boy most likely obtained the lotus seed of the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus in that cave abode, and used the seed to revive the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus, thus gaining its help.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have conquered the entire Eastern Domain so quickly and turned against my Holy Domain!

"That damned Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus!" the Scarlet Emperor gritted his teeth. "Three million years have passed, and it's still opposing us! We should have destroyed it completely back then, at any cost!"

The Azure Emperor's face also turned extremely gloomy. "The Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus has always been our greatest threat. If it is truly resurrected and helps that wild brat, then we will be in real danger."

"So what do we do now?" the Scarlet Emperor asked. "How about the three of us join forces and go straight to the Eastern Domain to wipe out that brat and the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus!"

We've destroyed the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus so many times, I refuse to believe we can't do it this time.

Moreover, it has just been resurrected and its strength is not at its peak, making this the best time to make a move!

"No," the Azure Emperor shook his head and said, "We cannot easily leave Primordial Beginning Divine Mountain. Primordial Beginning Divine Mountain is the core location of the Primordial Beginning Origin, and we must guard it at all times."

Once we leave, the Primordial Beginning Origin will be disturbed, and the entire Primordial Beginning Dao Realm will fall into chaos.

Don't forget, there are still a few guys in the Western Regions eyeing Primordial Beginning Divine Mountain covetously.

Once they find out the three of us left, they'll definitely take the opportunity to make their move, and that will be troublesome!

"Moreover..." White Emperor added, "We are still unsure whether the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus is truly in that wild boy's hands."

If this is just a trap, the three of us leaving Primordial Beginning Divine Mountain could very well fall into someone else's trap.

The Scarlet Emperor frowned and said, "This won't work, that won't work, are we just going to stand by and watch that wild brat grow powerful in the Eastern Domain?"

"Of course not." A ruthless glint flashed in the Azure Emperor's eyes. "To nip that brat and the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus in the bud, we have no choice but to use that secret weapon."

"A secret weapon?" The Scarlet Emperor and the White Emperor looked at the Azure Emperor at the same time, a hint of surprise flashing in their eyes.

"That's right, it's the Primordial Beginning Divine Punishment Cannon we forged three million years ago using a portion of the Primordial Beginning Origin's power," the Azure Emperor said slowly.

"This weapon is incredibly powerful. Once fired, it could destroy the entire Eastern Domain. Even with the help of the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus, that brat would absolutely not be able to withstand a single blow from the Primordial Beginning Divine Punishment Cannon."

The Scarlet Emperor's eyes lit up. "That's right! How could I have forgotten about this weapon! With the Primordial Beginning Divine Punishment Cannon, let alone a wild brat, even ten or a hundred of them could be easily blasted to pieces!"

The White Emperor hesitated. "However, activating the Primordial Beginning Divine Punishment Cannon requires a large amount of our three source power, and it will also take three months to recharge."

Our strength will be greatly reduced during these three months. And if anything unexpected happens during this time...

"There's no 'what if'," the Azure Emperor said decisively. "These are extraordinary times, and extraordinary measures must be taken."

Compared to the threat posed by the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus and the Wild Boy, expending a little bit of primordial power is nothing.

Moreover, as long as we can kill that brat and destroy the Primordial Beginning Azure Lotus, the entire Primordial Beginning Dao Realm will still be ours.

"At that time, we will have plenty of time to restore our original power."

The Scarlet Emperor also said, "White Emperor, don't hesitate any longer. The Azure Emperor is right. We can't wait any longer. If we wait any longer, that wild brat's strength will only grow stronger, and he'll be even more difficult to deal with then."

The White Emperor pondered for a moment, then finally nodded. "Alright, I agree. Let's use the Primordial Beginning Divine Punishment Cannon then."

Seeing that the two had agreed, the Azure Emperor smiled with satisfaction, "Alright, from today onwards, the three of us will take turns going into seclusion to recharge the Primordial Beginning Divine Punishment Cannon."

Three months later, bombard the Eastern Domain, blasting that brat and all the rebels to the heavens!

"Good!"

The Scarlet Emperor and the White Emperor responded simultaneously.

A chilling killing intent flashed in the eyes of the three Dao Lords simultaneously.

A catastrophe capable of destroying the entire Eastern Domain is quietly brewing.

At this time, Li Yunjing was completely unaware of this.
