The sixth heaven.
The Beast King's choice was completely different from that of the Western Emperor.
"What caused the Southern Emperor's crisis? I do not yet know. If a major problem arises, my sixth heaven is right next to the Southern Emperor's seventh heaven. At that time, I will also be plunged into a great crisis!"
The Beast King pondered, realizing that such a perilous situation did not warrant the deployment of its true form.
He thought for a moment, then condensed a clone, leaped out, broke away from where his main body was hidden, traversed the sixth heaven, and quickly descended.
The Southern Emperor is on the next floor!
The next moment, the Beast King's clone, like an eel, burrowed into the shattered heaven and earth above and quickly disappeared.
******
******
The seventh heaven.
"It's you?!" The Southern Emperor recognized the group of people who had attacked him; they were all familiar faces, people he had followed.
"I thought it was someone else, Dao Ancestor Cao Ya? He didn't come?" The Southern Emperor sneered. "With you broken eighth level cultivators, how could you be my match?"
Damn, that scared me to death!
The Southern Emperor secretly exhaled, grinned ferociously, and held his giant hammer, exuding a chilling murderous aura.
"Stop wasting words with him, attack!" Zhen Tianwang shouted, and suddenly charged out, his great path surging as he attacked the Southern Emperor.
"kill!!!"
"Haha, the Emperor himself, I've never killed one before. Today, I'll experience it for myself!"
The crowd laughed wildly, all giving their all in a fierce attack on the Southern Emperor.
Even if they were arrogant, they would never dare to be careless when facing the true form of an emperor.
Previously, due to the rift, the Southern Emperor suffered a backlash and was clearly injured. Everyone present was a seasoned veteran—perhaps except for Cang Mao?!—naturally, they seized this opportunity and launched a fierce attack, injuring the Southern Emperor once again. As a result, the Southern Emperor's clones in other locations also collapsed.
However, when the Southern Emperor looked closely and saw that it was Fang Ping, Cang Mao, and the others, he breathed a sigh of relief and realized that he had worried too much.
"A bunch of insects, breaking through the Eight Heavenly Kings, dare to dream of fighting against an emperor? What a fool's dream! I was only coughing up blood because of the rift and your sneak attack. Now, hehe, you will all die!" Nanhuang Han said in a sinister tone.
Boom!!!
The giant hammer swept across, striking with tremendous force.
Despite the combined efforts of Shi Po, Luan Tian Wang, Zhu Shen Shi, and Tian Gou, they were unable to stop the attack and were sent flying backward, spraying out large amounts of blood.
"Haha, I am the emperor, how can you weaklings stand against me?" The Southern Emperor laughed, seemingly insane, and swung his giant hammer again, but this time it was blocked.
"Hmm?" The Southern Emperor was taken aback, then his expression changed slightly as he looked at Fang Ping, the Heavenly King, and Shuxiang.
"Breaking through nine?!"
"Meow!" The blue cat cried out and bit the Southern Emperor, causing him to wince in pain and curse angrily.
"Damn stupid cat!" Nanhuang kicked out, sending the gray cat flying.
"So what if you break through nine? A true emperor is not someone a pseudo-emperor can match!" the Southern Emperor sneered. The giant hammer pressed down, shattering the void. Shuxiang, Zhentianwang, and Fangping, who were resisting the giant hammer, all had their bones creaking and blood seeping out, almost bursting into death.
The True Emperor's power is unparalleled in the Three Realms!
Have you forgotten about us?
"kill!!!!"
Zhang Tao, Wang Jinyang, Li Hansong, and Yao Chengjun also made their moves, each with their own unique skills and extraordinary combat abilities, which made even the Southern Emperor take notice.
"The current Human Emperor, as well as the reincarnations of the War Emperor, the Annihilation Emperor, and the Overlord Emperor, are indeed quite remarkable." The Southern Emperor still had the strength to spare, and he praised them, then smiled coldly, without any emotion, as if he were a supreme god looking down on the three realms of heaven and earth.
"Today, you will all die! Even if Cao Ya appears, I will not..." Nanhuang said indifferently, and struck out with another palm, stopping Zhang Tao and the others.
"Woof! A celestial dog is eating the sun!"
Just then, the Heavenly Dog roared, opened its huge mouth, and unleashed its power to devour the heavens and the earth. Everything in front of it, not only the Southern Emperor, but also the Origin Land, was being devoured by the Heavenly Dog!
The aura emanating from the Heavenly Dog suddenly surged dramatically, almost breaking through the ninth level, and even reaching the level of an Emperor!
The Southern Emperor's expression changed slightly. He smashed Fang Ping, Zhen Tianwang, and Shuxiang, the three great Nine-Breakers, away with one hammer. Then he slammed the hammer towards the Heavenly Dog. His divine power was violent, sweeping across the sky and the earth.
"I'll let you suck! I'll let you suck!" The Southern Emperor grinned, his primal force surging forth and pouring into the Heavenly Dog's gaping maw, threatening to burst it open.
After all, the Heavenly Dog has only broken through the eighth level, and even if it tries its best, there is still a limit.
"Meow!" Seeing this, the Azure Cat became anxious and suddenly flew out, displaying the power of Breaking Nine, knocking away the Southern Emperor's Giant Hammer and resolving the Heavenly Dog's crisis.
"Another one breaking nine? This silly cat can actually break nine?!" The Southern Emperor seemed to have a look of astonishment on his face.
Shi Po, Luan Tianwang, Zhu Shenshi, Fang Ping, Zhen Tianwang, Shu Xiang, as well as Zhang Tao, Wang Jinyang, Li Hansong, Yao Chengjun, and the others, were mostly quite surprised—except for Fang Ping!—but they didn't think too much about it, after all, Cang Mao was one of their comrades.
They did everything in their power to besiege and kill the Southern Emperor.
Several powerful Nine-level attackers faced off head-on, while the remaining Eight-level attackers engaged in guerrilla warfare. This made the Southern Emperor very uncomfortable, and he felt somewhat exhausted from running around.
Most importantly, Fang Ping and his group found their rhythm during the encirclement and began to refine the source land to improve their cultivation.
Upon seeing this, the Southern Emperor was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, appearing almost manic.
"What are you laughing at?" The Heavenly King frowned.
"I laugh at your foolishness! The Origin Land may be good, but it's nothing but a prison. We'd love to get out, yet you actually want to come in willingly? Even if you only refine a tiny part of the Origin Land, with your cultivation levels, it will be very difficult for you to get out." The Southern Emperor almost laughed until tears streamed down his face. He said, "Go ahead and refine it. I won't even bother to interfere, because before long, you too will be trapped in the Origin Land, becoming prisoners of the Origin Land just like us."
"Haha, that's a good thing. With more people trapped in the source area, the pressure on each person will be reduced accordingly."
The Southern Emperor's expression was complex.
The source is truly a magical place; those inside want to get out, and those outside want to get in.
"Don't waste words with him, kill him before the other emperors arrive!" Fang Ping shouted, sneering inwardly. The constraints of the Origin Land were not as severe for them as they were for emperors.
After all, their power is more complex. Even if the power of the source is refined by the new martial arts, it can still reduce some of the constraints and still barely gain freedom, just like the Earth Emperor whose cracks were repaired by the power of the War Emperor.
As for being completely unrestricted, like Cao Ya Daozu or Yang Shen, who could roam freely across the Three Realms, they had never considered that.
The cultivation of the new martial arts is no easy task. With great changes imminent, they no longer have time to prove their path through the new martial arts.
As long as it makes me stronger, what does it matter if there are some side effects or hidden dangers?
If they don't become stronger, death will be their only fate!
Which is more important? Everyone has their own judgment.
