Chapter 1272: Empyrean’s Death Shakes the World
When Black Ogre Emperor died, in the universe, a soul brand containing the essence of ghosts collapsed and turned into nothingness. Stars dropped down from the sky like meteors and fell towards Cangzhi Plane. Countless blood colored dark clouds gathered, and a rain of blood poured down from the sky. “An Empyrean died! Who was it?” In a strange river of time, Primal Chaos Mother Spider opened her eyes, erupted with countless runes, and look into the void. “An Empyrean died! Who the hell was it?” “Who died?” Old monsters sleeping in different space-times and different danger zones opened their eyes and perceived everything. “Black Ogre Emperor died!” “Firmament Holy Yang Feng killed an Empyrean!” “What a fierce character! Without that person having to step in, he was able to kill an Empyrean! How dreadful!” “To interfere with the main world ahead of time, that fool Black Ogre Emperor brought this upon himself.” “…” After obtaining information through various secret methods and fallbacks arranged in the world, the Empyreans hid themselves even better. “It’s not safe here anymore.” Primal Chaos Mother Spider’s figure blurred. She spat out countless threads and formed a huge cocoon. The cocoon blurred and disappeared. “Stars fall, blood pours down from the sky! An Empyrean died!” “The laws of heaven and earth have changed! An Empyrean of our universe died!” “These visions represent the fall of an Empyrean. Which Empyrean died?” “…” On Cangzhi Plane, powerhouses above the Warlock Monarch realm looked at the visions in the sky, and their complexion changed greatly. Stars fall, blood pours down from the sky, these are visions that will appear when an Empyrean dies. “An Empyrean died! Could it be Black Ogre Emperor?” “The Empyreans are sleeping in different places. Only Black Ogre Emperor showed himself! Was Black Ogre Emperor the one who died?!” “Did Firmament Holy kill Black Ogre Emperor!” “…” When the Holies and Great Holies around Godslayer Mountain saw the visions, they felt their blood run cold. “Black Ogre Emperor died!” “A road opened. However, it’s not of much significance.” “With Firmament Holy present, this era’s Empyrean throne is his for the taking!” “…” The seven quasi-Empyreans hidden in the void gazed at the visions with a dignified color their eyes. The quasi-Empyreans can sense that a path’s soul brand collapsed. Now others can be promoted to an Empyrean via that path again. Battered and bruised all over due to the siege of Cosmic Eyes Tiger Great Holy, Starmoon Sky Snake Great Holy, and Cyan Thunderbolt Great Holy, Babatarok spewed out a mouthful of blood, and then shouted at the top of his lungs, a ferocious look on his face: “How is it possible! My lord, how could my lord have died!” “Even if it’s an Empyrean, if they’re my older brother’s enemy, only death will await them!” Along with a melodious voice, three dragon heads emerged from the void, bit hard, and tore Babatarok into pieces. Three radiances shone, swept Babatarok’s torn body, and sealed it in jade boxes. Cosmic Eyes Tiger Great Holy and Cyan Thunderbolt Great Holy looked at the jade boxes in their hands with satisfaction in their eyes. The remains of a quasi-Empyrean are definitely a rare treasure of heaven and earth, a treasure among treasures. Whether it is used to refine secret treasures or top elixirs, it is a top material. It’s enough to tempt even quasi-Empyreans. Quasi-Empyrean rank powerhouses such as Cosmic Eyes Tiger Great Holy and Cyan Thunderbolt Great Holy can naturally sever a limb and squeeze out blood essence to refine secret treasures and precious elixirs. However, the cost involved is great, and the gains do not make up for the loss. “It’s over!” “From now on, this is Firmament Holy’s era!” “…” Along with flashes of light, the Holies and Great Holies gathered here turned into streams of light and disappeared. Bai Bingxian sighed: “From today on, no one in the whole universe will be able to compete with Firmament Holy anymore. The ninth human Warlock Emperor.” While remaining silent, Mofeceraja turned into a green radiance and disappeared. Cangzhi Plane, the magic network. “Firmament Holy returned, devoured Heaven’s Devourer Tyrant Dragon, defeated three quasi-Empyreans, and slayed Black Ogre Emperor, who is an ancient Empyrean!” An explosive piece of information spread through Cangzhi Plane’s magic network. “How is that possible? Heavens’ Devourer Tyrant Dragon is Eternal Sovereign age’s powerhouse second only to Empyreans. How could he be defeated?” “Firmament Holy has returned? Has came out from Eternal Ancient Road already? Even if he came out from Eternal Ancient Road, he may not be the opponent of three ancient quasi-Empyreans.” “This information is absolutely false. Ancient Empyreans are incomparably powerful and invincible. How could Yang Feng have killed one such being?” “But the information that Firmament Holy returned should be true!” “…” Discussions spread within the magic network. Few people believe that Yang Feng can defeat Heaven’s Devourer Tyrant Dragon, three quasi-Empyreans, and Black Ogre Emperor at a stretch. “Did Heavens Devourer Tyrant Dragon, three ancient quasi-Empyreans, and Black Ogre Emperor really die at Yang Feng’s hands?” “That’s right! I saw Heaven’s Devourer and three ancient quasi-Empyreans die at Yang Feng’s hands with my own eyes. He also killed Black Ogre Emperor’s avatar. Soon after, the visions of stars falling and blood pouring down from the sky appeared. If I’m not mistaken, Black Ogre Emperor’s death should be Yang Feng’s doing.” “How is that possible? Firmament Holy is just a Great Holy. No matter how strong he is, how could he slay an Empyrean?” “Firmament Holy can’t kill an Empyrean in top condition. But if it’s an Empyrean whose soul is close to decay, it’s another story. Firmament Holy must have found the hiding place of his true body, finally forcing him to step in. Consequently, his soul to decayed, and he died.” “Even if he was forced to step in, an Empyrean should be able to escape from Firmament Holy.” “That only shows that Firmament Holy’s terror exceeds our expectations by far.” “…” In the Holy Forum, where only Holies can participate, a group of Holies are secretly communicating. Many Holies who didn’t go Godslayer Mountain for various reasons listened to what happened. The Holies and Great Holies felt a chill go down their spine. Yang Feng’s terror is far beyond their imagination. “To have three quasi-Empyreans following him, he must be invincible in Eternal Ancient Road.” “Who has news regarding Eternal Ancient Road?” “You guys guessed right. Almost half of Eternal Ancient Road’s eternal empyrean races have signed a treaty with Firmament Holy and became his allies.” “Are you sure that they’re just allies and not subordinates?” “With Firmament Holy’s strength, what’s the difference between being ally or subordinate? It’s just a title, that’s all. Perhaps being ally is even worse than being subordinate.” “…” Eternal Ancient Road has appeared in the world of Warlocks and become another center second only to Cangzhi Plane. Many powerhouses returned from Eternal Ancient Road and brought back a lot of information about Eternal Ancient Road. Ever since Wall of Eternity shattered, half of Eternal Ancient Road’s eternal empyrean races have joined Yang Feng’s camp and became his subordinates and allies. Cosmic Eyes Tiger Great Holy threw in his lot with Yang Feng and became his subordinate. Cyan Thunderbolt great Holy chose to become Yang Feng’s ally. Yang Feng assimilated countless powerhouses of Eternal Ancient Road into his forces, which is why he didn’t appear at an earlier time. “Firmament Holy is already invincible! In this era, there’s no one who can match him anymore.” “Not necessarily. As long as he hasn’t advanced to an Empyrean, there is still a chance that someone will surpass him.” “That’s right! Back in the day, Star Lord was stifled by another! But in the end, he relied on a chance, ascended the Empyrean throne, and suppressed all enemies!” “…” The Holies and Great Holies discussed on the Holies Forum. Cangzhi Plane, outside Battle Demon Sect’s branch floating continent, there are countless robots flying in the air. One after another, stars are being seized from the starry sky by Battle Demon Sect’s powerhouses, and then transformed by engineering robots. In an interstellar port built outside the floating branch continent, there are countless warships moored. These warships are of different shapes and styles. The gate of a ship-type warship opened, and a man with a vertical eye on the forehead and extraordinary temperament slowly alighted. “I, Shi Yu, greet All-Eyes Great Holy!” The beautiful Shi Yu with extraordinary temperament came to the warship and said with a sweet smile, a fragrance wafting out from her. Behind Shi Yu, there are a dozen plus beautiful angel soldiers. All-Eyes Great Holy smiled and said, “Shi Yu Great Holy, where’s Firmament Holy?” Shi Yu said with a smile, “Firmament Holy is still practicing cultivation in seclusion. If it were anyone else, they wouldn’t be able to see him. But he ordered to take you to him if you came.” All-Eyes Great Holy’s eyes flashed with enigmatic slight, and he uttered unhurriedly, “Practicing cultivation in seclusion? Does he want to break through, take that step, and advance to a quasi-Empyrean? Or does he want to directly step into the Empyrean realm and become the ninth human Warlock Emperor?” In theory, pinnacle Great Holies can already advance to Empyreans. In fact, quasi-Empyreans are powerhouses that have taken half a step into the Empyrean realm. Among the eight human Warlock Emperors, Star Lord was a pinnacle Great Holy before he stepped into the Empyrean realm. Shi Yu smiled and avoided the topic: “Only big brother knows what he wants.” “What a sight!” As he wandered inside the interstellar port, All-Eyes Great Holy saw that there are powerhouses of countless races gathered here, making the interstellar port extreme bustling.
