"It was him!"
Guomuboer was unaware that when he saw Lin Yun's figure, among the group of powerful ghost cultivators, the Martial Emperor gasped inwardly and thought to himself.
Who would have thought that the one who broke through the new heavens of the Netherworld was actually a living being?
Similarly, he didn't expect it either!
Therefore, he never thought of this little creature!
Superior Saint King Realm... Peak Saint King Realm... Inferior Saint King Realm!
Unexpectedly, it was this very young creature who broke through the new heavens of the Netherworld, and now he has even broken through to the Lower Saint King realm!
“When he was at the Upper Saint King level, he could quickly kill a mid-level Saint King Ghost Cultivator. Now that he has broken through to the Lower Saint King level, he probably has the strength of an Invincible Saint King. If I were to face him, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to do anything about it…” The Martial Emperor frowned slightly.
He naturally wanted to kill his opponent, but he knew he couldn't do anything to him, so he wasn't in a hurry to make the first move!
Perhaps, he could rely on the Three-Eyed Emperor and Ao Di's group of top-tier ghost cultivators...
Thinking this, Emperor Wu glanced at the three-eyed emperor, Emperor Ao, and other powerful ghost cultivators around him.
At this moment, not only the Three-Eyed Emperor and Emperor Ao, but also many other powerful ghost cultivators did not make a move. Not every ghost cultivator is so reckless, especially those who have cultivated to their level.
"Emperor Wu, do you know the other party's identity?" Just then, the Three-Eyed Emperor seemed to sense Emperor Wu's mental fluctuations, turned his head to look at Emperor Wu, and asked.
"Emperor Wu, do you know the other party?" Upon hearing the Three-Eyed Emperor's words, Emperor Ao immediately turned his head to look at Emperor Wu and asked.
If Emperor Wu knew the other party's identity, he might have been able to learn about the other party's background from Emperor Wu. For some reason, he vaguely sensed that the other party was not simple, and that was why he did not rush to make a move.
"I don't know him!" Emperor Wu said expressionlessly.
In fact, after the opponent passed through the thirty-fifth heaven and arrived at the thirty-sixth heaven, if Emperor Ao and the Three-Eyed Emperor had noticed, they could probably have sensed some of the opponent's strength. Especially Emperor Ao, since the opponent almost killed a mid-level Saint King Ghost Cultivator in the thirty-fifth heaven. If Emperor Ao had noticed the whole situation at that time, he should have been even clearer about the strength of this young man.
Unfortunately, it was clear that Ao Di only knew that the one who seriously injured the mid-level Saint King ghost cultivator was a living being, and did not know that it was this young being. The Three-Eyed Emperor also did not notice the other party's information.
Therefore, he would be even less likely to tell Ao Di and the Three-Eyed Emperor what he knew, as it would not benefit him. If he could trick the Three-Eyed Emperor, Ao Di, and a group of top ghost cultivators into attacking the other party first, that would be even better!
If the other party were a ghost cultivator, this group of ghost cultivators might not have attacked him. Unfortunately... the other party is a living being, and living beings and ghost cultivators are naturally opposed!
Since the other party has ventured deep into the Netherworld and reached the highest heavens, it would be a disservice to their identity as ghost cultivators not to capture them!
"However, Three-Eyed Emperor and Emperor Ao, aren't you going to make a move? The opponent has broken through three new layers of the Netherworld in succession. If you kill him, the Netherworld's source power that he just obtained will fall into your hands!" Thinking this, before Three-Eyed Emperor and Emperor Ao could ask anything else, Emperor Wu immediately asked back.
"This is the primordial power of our Netherworld, and it absolutely cannot fall into the hands of a single living being!" Emperor Wu then added.
He was getting anxious. If the Three-Eyed Emperor and Emperor Ao didn't act quickly, and that young creature displayed his powerful strength, the Three-Eyed Emperor and Emperor Ao might not act so easily.
At that time, it would be much more difficult for him to use the Three-Eyed Emperor, Ao Di, or other powerful ghost cultivators as the vanguard.
The Three-Eyed Emperor frowned slightly, making no move. It wasn't that he didn't want to deal with the being that had broken the new heaven of the Netherworld, but rather that he vaguely sensed something was off about the Martial Emperor's behavior. As far as he knew, the Martial Emperor's personality wasn't like this. Perhaps there was something strange about it.
"Heh! Since you've said so, Emperor Wu, then I won't hold back!" Emperor Ao couldn't help but sneer and said.
"boom!"
Before he could finish speaking, Ao Di unleashed a terrifying aura and soared into the sky.
At this moment, those ordinary Saint King-level ghost cultivators were about to rush to that living being's side. Even if that living being had some tricks up his sleeve, he would have to use them when he arrived.
At that time, he saw through the methods this young creature possessed, and while weakening some of the creature's abilities, he could also suppress it in one fell swoop.
His strength is unlike that of ordinary Saint King ghost cultivators. Once he kills this young man, even if several ghost cultivators join forces, none of them would dare to say they can suppress him. He is confident that he can escape.
At that time, he obtained the primal power of the thirty-seventh, thirty-eighth, and thirty-ninth heavens of the Netherworld, and his strength would advance further in the near future. Even the Three-Eyed Emperor and the Martial Emperor would not be his match.
His strength might even surpass that of the other ghost cultivators among the Nine Emperors by a large margin, making him the true number one ghost cultivator in the Netherworld!
Even if the legendary Blood Emperor were to reappear, no matter how much he has improved, he would still be no match for him!
Thinking this, Ao Di couldn't help but feel a little excited.
He didn't take this young creature seriously. Although he believed that the other party was not an ordinary being, since he could break through the third level of the Netherworld, he was still only at the lower level of Saint King. Moreover, the other party's strength would be greatly suppressed in the Netherworld. No matter how strong he was, how strong could he be?
His strength is at the Invincible Saint King level. Even an ordinary peak Saint King can be killed by him when he goes all out. If the opponent's strength is not that of a peak Saint King, he is even more confident that he can kill them within a few moves!
Letting those ordinary Saint King ghost cultivators wear down the opponent's abilities is already showing them enough respect!
It's good that the Three-Eyed Emperor and the Martial Emperor didn't make a move, which saves them from having any top-tier ghost cultivators vying for this great opportunity. Once they've already seized it, it will be too late for them to regret it!
"Ao Di has made his move!"
Seeing Ao Di make a move, Emperor Wu's heart tightened. He stared intently at Ao Di as he rushed out, and his fists clenched involuntarily.
This young creature is extremely powerful. In the end, he only deduced this. He only saw the result of how this young creature quickly killed a mid-level Saint King Ghost Cultivator, not the process. What if the young creature used a special method to almost kill the mid-level Saint King Ghost Cultivator? What if his true strength wasn't that great...? Ao Di gained a huge advantage by rushing over here!
Thinking this, Emperor Wu couldn't help but feel impatient. The next moment, he couldn't hold back any longer and rushed forward!
The opportunity was too great; even if there was only the slightest chance, he couldn't just give it up to Emperor Ao!
"Hmm? Even the Martial Emperor couldn't resist making a move? Unfortunately, he's too late! I'll kill this brat before he gets here!" In the distance, Ao Di, who was rushing forward, noticed this scene and smiled coldly to himself.
He had been feeling a little nervous, but seeing this scene, he felt completely relieved. Now, he had only one goal: to rush to that young man's side and use all his strength to defeat him.
He would win once he reached that little monster.
"Quickly! Make your move!"
"Emperor Ao and Emperor Wu have already made their move. If we don't act soon, we won't even get a taste of the soup!"
"Hopefully that brat can hold out long enough so we'll have a chance to kill him!"
"Charge! Charge! Charge!"
Seeing this, even the powerful ghost cultivators who had been holding their heads steady all brightened up and spoke quickly, their voices urgent.
"Could it be that I sensed something wrong earlier? Or perhaps, Emperor Wu was using a feint earlier? Hmm... given his personality, it's not impossible for him to do something like that. And then, when he saw Emperor Ao make his move, he panicked?"
On the other side, the Three-Eyed Emperor frowned slightly upon seeing this scene, and then seemed to be deep in thought.
The other powerful ghost cultivators have all made their moves, so perhaps it's time for him to make his too... What the Martial Emperor said earlier was true: the new heaven of their Netherworld, the source power of the Netherworld, absolutely cannot be obtained by any living being. Since that living being is bound to perish at the hands of them, ghost cultivators, then he should naturally compete for it as well.
"Um?"
However, just as the Three-Eyed Emperor was about to make a move, he suddenly noticed a figure. The figure was as steady as a mountain, motionless, and stood out among the ghost cultivators who were all eager to make their move.
That ghost cultivator was none other than the Lord of the Twenty-Seventh Heaven, Guomuboer.
The Three-Eyed Emperor's heart stirred, and he immediately suppressed the thought of taking action.
If he remembered correctly, the other party was a ghost cultivator who seemed to know the cultivator who broke through the new heaven of the Netherworld.
The Lord of the Twenty-Seventh Heaven, a mid-level Saint King, is quite powerful. It's normal that he knew about some things early on. The fact that such a powerful figure didn't take action or want to get involved suggests that there might be other hidden reasons behind this matter.
He didn't believe that Guomuboer was a self-aware ghost cultivator who didn't think he could outmaneuver the many ghost cultivators present. He thought that a mid-level Saint King ghost cultivator, a ghost cultivator at the twenty-seventh level, might be able to take advantage of the chaos in this scene.
The other party could become the master of the twenty-seventh heaven, and was one of the top beings back then. The Three-Eyed Emperor did not believe that the other party lacked such courage; otherwise, the other party would not have reached this point.
Looking at Guomuboer's expression now, there is no envy, no jealousy, no ambition... Instead, there seems to be a trace of pity, even a trace of unease, which is even more abnormal.
Speaking of Guomuboer...
On the other side, Guomuboer stared in disbelief at the scene before him.
Even the Martial Emperor, the Ao Emperor, and many powerful ghost cultivators at the peak Saint King and superior Saint King levels, as well as the lords of various heavens, have all taken action, and this matter is getting bigger and bigger.
He didn't say anything...
But things have escalated to this point. Perhaps if he had revealed his identity as the reincarnation of the Blood Emperor earlier, things wouldn't have turned out this way? And so many powerful ghost cultivators wouldn't have attacked the Blood Emperor.
Guomuboer couldn't help but think this.
Thinking this, he couldn't help but feel uneasy. What if the Blood Emperor blamed him after he defeated these powerful ghost cultivators?
Yes, he didn't think much of these powerful ghost cultivators at all!
Unlike the Martial Emperor, he had personally experienced the strength of the Blood Emperor's reincarnation. Although the Blood Emperor's reincarnation was not very strong at the time, it was still comparable to a peak Saint King Ghost Cultivator. Now, it has broken through to the Lower Saint King realm!
The gap between the Upper Saint King realm and the Lower Saint King realm is enormous. In addition, the Blood Emperor broke through the thirty-seventh to thirty-ninth heavens in succession, and at once obtained the Netherworld Origin Power bestowed by the heavens and earth for breaking through the three high heavens!
At the very least, he possesses the strength of an invincible holy king, or even more than an ordinary invincible holy king. The Martial Emperor and the Ao Emperor are also referred to as invincible holy kings by many ghost cultivators in the Netherworld, but he does not believe that the strength of the Martial Emperor and the Ao Emperor is comparable to that of the current Blood Emperor!
The title "Invincible Saint King" is relative to many ordinary peak Saint Kings, and they are not necessarily truly invincible. As far as he knows, the top-ranked among the Nine Emperors, such as the Three-Eyed Emperor, the Martial Emperor, and the Ao Emperor, are all called Invincible Saint Kings, but in reality, their strength varies.
If the Blood Emperor is also an invincible Saint King, Guomuboer believes that he would surpass invincible Saint Kings such as the Martial Emperor, the Ao Emperor, and even the Three-Eyed Emperor.
Perhaps Emperor Wu and Emperor Ao can save their lives, but it's hard to say about ordinary peak Saint Kings and late-stage Saint Kings. Basically, it depends on the Blood Emperor's mood. Whoever he wants to kill will definitely die.
As for those ordinary lower-level Saint Kings and middle-level Saint King ghost cultivators, needless to say, if the Blood Emperor were to exert his power, he would definitely kill a large number of them.
Guomuboer shook his head inwardly.
Perhaps, even the Blood Emperor himself wouldn't blame himself...
Soon, Guomuboer thought again.
But then he recalled some of the Blood Emperor's past deeds, and his previous encounter with the Blood Emperor. The Blood Emperor's weapon was incredibly powerful, seemingly possessing the ability to make the Blood Emperor grow stronger the more he fought...
Therefore, if the Blood Emperor were to kill some powerful ghost cultivators, his strength might become even greater!
In that case, it might not be a bad thing for the Blood Emperor if these ghost cultivators went to attack him!
Thinking this way, Guomuboer gradually calmed down and looked at the ghost cultivators who rushed forward, feeling a pang of pity.
These powerful ghost cultivators, blinded by greed and only thinking about great opportunities, probably don't realize that they are actually dealing with an unparalleled powerhouse.
call!
These thoughts only flashed through Guomuboer's mind for a moment. Just as he continued to think about them, a figure suddenly appeared not far in front of him.
"Guomuboer, why don't you go and kill that creature?" a faint voice rang out.
Guomuboer was startled and quickly turned around to look in the direction from which the sound came. He saw that not far ahead, the Three-Eyed Emperor was standing there, watching him leisurely.
“Three…Three-Eyed Emperor…” Guomuboer stammered.
Although he became famous earlier than the Three-Eyed Emperor, this is a very realistic world. Now, his strength is far inferior to that of the Three-Eyed Emperor. Before the reincarnation of the Blood Emperor reappeared in the Netherworld, the Three-Eyed Emperor was almost the de facto number one ghost cultivator in the Netherworld.
The Lord of the Thirty-Sixth Heaven was also the Lord of the Highest Heaven in the Underworld at that time.
Even if the Three-Eyed Emperor wanted to kill him, as the Lord of the Twenty-Seventh Heaven and a ghost cultivator possessing the power of the Netherworld's origin, he might not be able to stop him.
At this moment, seeing the Three-Eyed Emperor ask him a very sensitive question, he naturally became very nervous.
Why didn't the Three-Eyed Emperor rush forward...?
Just now, he was worried that so many powerful ghost cultivators would rush up to attack Lin Yun, fearing that he would take responsibility. At this moment, Guomuboer was secretly groaning in his heart.
"Do you know that being?" the Three-Eyed Emperor asked again.
"No...no no...I don't know him..." Guomuboer quickly denied.
The Three-Eyed Emperor's question was very problematic. As a ghost cultivator from the Netherworld, it was not a problem for him to recognize some living beings. However, the Three-Eyed Emperor's meaning was clearly not that.
This question seems to suggest that he colluded with living beings to frame the ghost cultivator.
In particular, he knew that the being was the reincarnation of the Blood Emperor, with unparalleled strength. This time, it would probably kill at least many Saint King-level ghost cultivators. How could he dare to take the blame?
Finally, if the identity of the Blood Emperor's reincarnation is revealed, that would be fine. But if it isn't, he'll be in deep trouble. How will he find a place in the Netherworld?
Therefore, he quickly denied it.
But... does he really not recognize the other person?
Of course not, therefore, his mental fluctuations were somewhat abnormal when he spoke at this moment!
Who is the Three-Eyed Emperor? Where is this? This is the Thirty-Sixth Heaven! The Three-Eyed Emperor is the Lord of the Thirty-Sixth Heaven! Guomuboer's mental fluctuations were immediately detected by him!
“You’re lying…” The Three-Eyed Emperor said, his eyes narrowing slightly.
“Three-Eyed Emperor, I…” Guomuboer was almost crying, filled with regret. If he had known this would happen, he would have left the Thirty-Sixth Heaven immediately. Why did he get involved in this?
However... the reason he didn't leave earlier was that, in case these ghost cultivators clashed with the Blood Emperor, and the Blood Emperor killed a large number of high-level ghost cultivators, he might be able to take the opportunity to make a small fortune.
Moreover, the thirty-seventh, thirty-eighth, and thirty-ninth heavens have just opened, and a large amount of pure Yin-attribute heaven and earth power has gathered here. If he stays here for a short time, it will be equivalent to the results of his cultivation over ten thousand, a million, or even ten million years. How could he let it go?
As the saying goes, "Man dies for wealth, birds die for food," and that's exactly the case!
He stayed here for his own benefit, and now he's facing this crisis too!
“Three-Eyed Emperor, I do know the other party, but…” In the end, Guomuboer gritted his teeth and said.
He decided to reveal the Blood Emperor's identity.
Whether the Blood Emperor will pursue him is a matter for the future and is unknown. However, if he does not reveal the Blood Emperor's identity or try to deceive the Three-Eyed Emperor, his life or death may be hanging in the balance right now!
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Boom!"
However, at that moment, the powerful ghost cultivators over there had already clashed with Lin Yun. Lin Yun, who was meditating cross-legged in the void with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes. Lightning seemed to flash from the depths of his eyes, and a blood sword instantly appeared in his hand. The next moment, he slashed at the ghost cultivators.
The attack speed of those powerful ghost cultivators was very fast, but Lin Yun's attack speed was even faster. Soon, the two attacks collided, immediately creating a tremendous noise.
The first to confront Lin Yun were those ordinary Saint King ghost cultivators.
"Boom... Boom... Bang... Bang... Bang..."
As Lin Yun attacked, the attacks of many ordinary Saint King Ghost Cultivators were annihilated as easily as dry leaves. Then, the massive attack landed on those ordinary Saint King Ghost Cultivators, and their bodies exploded one by one.
