Imperial God Emperor

Chapter 748 - Guardians

Translator: Aran

Since leaving Heaven Wasteland Domain, what Ye Qingyu had experienced so far could be said to be very strange. He had seen countless experts, but never a Saint-level existence.

At that moment the dark green figure in the Void that spoke was exuding an aura that was too powerful. The fluctuation of power around him contained the power of heaven. Although he was clearly situated in this world, he seemed to be in his own domain, very different from the surroundings and extremely bizarre.

From the description on some ancient records, experts with that kind of aura were sure to have knocked on the Immortal gate, transcended from worldliness, and entered the boundary of Saints.

He had overcome all worldly thoughts and entered Sainthood.

Ye Qingyu did not think that the storm on Taowu Mountain Range would attract Saint-level experts. Before the dark green flame light figure spoke, it had not caught Ye Qingyu's attention. But now the more he looked at the figure, the more frightened he was.

“That person is a guardian elder of the Jade Pearl Sect, a thousand-year-old monster, but that old monster is not the most terrifying. Do you see the woman next to him? She is the Saintess of Jade Pearl, a ruthless woman,” Fatty Shen Yan uttered in hushed tones to Ye Qingyu.

He lowered his voice to one that was very quiet, and there was a strong grudging tone in his words, as if he had suffered personally in the hands of the Jade Pearl Saintess.

Ye Qingyu cast a glance at this and followed his gaze. Sure enough, next to the dark green suspected Saint-level expert there was a graceful and curved figure of a woman.

The woman was dressed in a pure and snow-white long dress, without the slightest impurity or dirt on it, and a jade green sword scabbard hung at her slender waist. Her long black hair was draped over her back like a flowing waterfall, down to the calf, and her face was covered with a white gauzy cloth. Vaguely her strikingly beautiful face could be seen under the gauze, adding a more elegant and mysterious air. Her exposed ear and neck were as soft and fair as white jade. She was a real beauty with flesh of ice and bones of jade, untainted by even a speck of dust, radiated an elegant demeanour and without the slightest flaw.

The woman stood in mid-air with her white dress swaying gently. Her black hair was glistening, which exuded an indescribable elegance, like a fairy of the winter palace, aloof from the world and extremely cold and lofty.

“The Saintess of Jade Pearl really is of unparalleled manner and beauty.”

Ye Qingyu was also astonished.

That moment of astonishment sent Ye Qingyu's heart rippling.

The woman, whether in appearance or temperament, was indeed worthy of being called Saintess. Even the peerless geniuses painstakingly cultivated by the Jade Pearl Sect, including the dark green flame martial Saint, evidently also could not take away the slightest of brilliance from her.

“My Sinful Pit wants one of the six Doors of Life,” another voice sounded.

The person who spoke was a youngster who looked to be in his teens, clad in a large black robe, with his yellowish disheveled hair draped across his shoulders, and did not seem to care about his appearance. His figure was skinny and his arms were crossed at his chest. His fingers were as dark as a bird's claw, and the smile on his face seemed to be full of ridicule and disdain for the world.

Behind the youngster was a blood red brilliance, inside of which could vaguely be seen a tall and thin figure. Although the appearance was unclear, the aura exuded was not in the slightest inferior to the Saint of the Jade Pearl Sect.

“That is the Young Lord of the Sinful Pit, the blood-coloured shadows behind him are his guardians, and also the people in charge of the Sinful Pit. These two guys are crazy. It's best not to mess with them.” The bald fatty Sheng Yan moved closer again.

“You seem like you know everything?” Ye Qingyu glanced at him.

The fatty smiled, and spoke without modesty, “That is true, nothing can hide from me....”

“Who are you?” Ye Qingyu casually asked.

Fatty was about to answer then suddenly reacted and his tone changed all of a sudden, “Big brother, you’re trying to find out something from me.”

“Is there something you can't say to anyone?” Ye Qingyu shot a glance at him, then his eyes shifted and quietly continued watching the groups of people around him.

In addition to the people of the Jade Pearl Sect and the Sinful Pit, there were several other forces that occupied an absolute advantageous position on the Fierce Beast Peak from the Doors of Darkness, among them Lu Li and Yang Wanqu were also present.

Sheng Yan saw that Ye Qingyu did not pay any attention to him, smiled, and came closer again. “You are looking at Tian Gian Sect's Lu Li and the Black Moon Palace's Yang Wanqu. You do not have to worry about these two trashes. They can't set off any waves. Their strength is not good enough. They were chased by the Celestial Phoenix Maiden like dogs and were almost killed. At the last moment, the Third Prince of the Kaiyang Imperial Court saved both of them since they were acquaintances.”

Ye Qingyu nodded.

His gaze swept across Lu Li and Yang Wanqu and stopped at a tall, burly young man standing in front of the two.

The young man's face was like copper, eyes bright as stars and eyebrows like swords that reached his temples. His whole body was protected by a golden battle armour, which was marked with sun formation seals. The rays of light were so bright that it was like the scorching sun and could not be looked at from a close distance. He wore a golden dragon helmet and golden battle boots, and two golden double-pointed coiled dragon spears were slung across his back. His appearance and manner of dressing was like a martial arts general from a story, emitting a flame-like aura all over.

The golden sun-armoured youngster presumably was the Third Prince of the Kaiyang Imperial Court who killed the three great elders of the Quicksand Valley.

He really was a peerless genius of his generation.

And thousands of meters left of the Third Prince of the Kaiyang Imperial Court, there was a tall, slender female war goddess, bathed in purple flames, standing opposite him.

This was a mysterious woman. Clad in a purple gold Phoenix battle outfit, and with a Phoenix mask covering her face. She possessed a unique and powerful aura that was completely opposite of the pure and cold aura of the Saintess of Jade Pearl. She was like an unsheathed divine sword, radiating that wild and powerful aura to its fullest and without restraint.

Most of all, the Phoenix mask on her face was glowing with a kind of evil brilliance, like a real living Phoenix face, concealing her power. It made others unable to see through and understand her.

Without the need to guess, Ye Qingyu already knew that the female war goddess was the legendary Celestial Phoenix Maiden.

Another strong and headstrong peerless talent.

And behind the Celestial Phoenix Maiden, there was a ball of purple flames half a meter in diameter that was blazing, revealing an aura that was comparable to that of the guardians of the Sinful Pit and the Jade Pearl Sect. Evidently it was another important figure.

In addition, Ye Qingyu also saw the people of the Black Demon Abyss. A number of Black Demon Abyss elders were surrounding a little girl who looked only twelve or thirteen years old. She must be the legendary Little Princess of the Black Demon Race.

“My Sky Meteor Sect will also take up one.” In the north-west direction, a middle-aged man dressed in a dark yellow robe spoke all of a sudden. He was another Saint-level expert, exuding an aura that was as powerful and majestic as the stars of the Ninth Heaven.

And standing beside him was a hooked nose young man. His face was fair and clear, eyes narrow and long, brows thick like swords, and he was clad in a bright yellow armour. With an icy cold expression on his face he was looking straight at the dark Doors of Life in the sky, seemingly unconcerned with what was happening around him.

These great forces had begun to negotiate.

Ye Qingyu stopped for a moment, and began to understand that the Doors of Darkness will only remain open for three days, and each door will at most allow only three people to pass. In other words, only eighteen people could pass through the six dark Doors of Life. As a result, these major forces were bargaining and fighting for their places.

Those who were not strong enough at this point seemed very embarrassed.

In the meantime, there was an elder of a demon clan called the Shocking Sky Court, who was directly killed by a guardian of the Sinful Pit when he opened his mouth. His blood sprayed across the sky and he was eliminated right away.

The other sects and experts, upon seeing the scene, were both shocked and angry. But they also dared not to say a word.

Ye Qingyu watched for a while and suddenly felt bored.

He turned to the bald fatty, asking, “Since you know so much, can you tell me what to do now to get the Black Demon Herb from the hands of these great forces?”

By now, Ye Qingyu had completely given up the idea of snatching the herb from the great forces.

At the moment, every descendant of the great forces who was in possession of Black Demon Herb was surrounded by a Saint-level guardian. If he were to go against them, then there was no difference to throwing away his life. He had no choice but to think of other ways.

“Big Brother, why do you always have to mention the Black Demon Herb?” Sheng Yan was a little puzzled, “With your strength, it is just a matter of time before you get your hands on Black Demon Herb. There is no need to be impatient. The most important thing now is the great opportunity before you, if you and I join forces...”

Ye Qingyu interrupted him, “Because what I lack most right now is time.”

“This...” Sheng Yan gave a bitter smile. “I have no other way.”

Ye Qingyu really wanted to kick the fatty over when he heard this, but at that moment, changes happened again.

The pulling force above the Taowu Mountain Range vanished all of a sudden.

The blood, bones and corpses that were drawn into the air were suddenly hurled back to the ground like rain.

In the Void.

Within the six Doors of Darkness, the space-time vortex continued. But vaguely, there was a silver brilliance infiltrating the thick ink-like darkness. The terrifying destructive power seemed to be gradually stopping like an ocean surface calming down after a storm. Each Door of Darkness had become gentler.

“The opportunity is here. The Doors of Life has appeared.” There was a tremble in the excited voice of the bald fatty.

Ye Qingyu glanced at him and really didn't understand why the fatty was so excited. With his strength, was he thinking of entering one of the doors? The most likely outcome of that course of action was that before he even came near one, he would be torn apart by the experts of the major forces.

And at the same time, following the appearance of the Doors of Life, the atmosphere on the originally silent Fierce Beast Peak grew strange.

A frenzy of madness was quietly beginning to fluctuate around——
