Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Even though he carefully backed away, trying his best to not expose himself, the five Imperial Emperors still noticed his movements. Their eyes instantly locked onto Zhong Yue and the pressure they emitted caused Zhong Yue to tense up in nervousness.

He was already being locked onto by these Imperial Emperors!

The gate was just behind him and with just a step, he would be freed from this situation!

But just this step was extremely precarious as one reckless move would cause him to be the target of a joint attack from Imperial Emperors!

And if that happened, an apocalypse would descend onto the Heaven Suppression Fortress!

After the struggles he went through in building Heaven Suppression Fortress, he just couldn’t bring himself to see it destroyed just like that!

Sweat started to drip down his forehead and he immediately notified Fu Qizhi and Fu Yanshan to back off along with the gods under his command.

Tensed!

An unbelievable tension!

The five Imperial Emperors’ presence were overwhelming and with them acknowledging each other as Dao brothers, their strength was undoubtedly powerful, hence, when their attention was focused onto Zhong Yue, the pressure they gave him was beyond imagination.

Previously, Zhong Yue only managed to cover the alluring scent with many layers of protection; first, he placed the Hundredth Reincarnated Amaryllis inside the Six Paths Bead that sealed Fu Shang away, then he used the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror as the second layer of protection and the copper lantern as the third.

Without the alluring scent, the five Imperial Emperors were still able to control themselves and refrain themselves from robbing Zhong Yue in public. But with the scent spread all over right now, the situation turned quickly turned sour.

“Mister Yi, after some considerations, I think its better that you hand over the saint herb right now.”

The “second brother” spoke in a sore and trembling tone, “Only the capable ones are qualified to possess such items and I’m afraid you are not capable enough…”

“This scent, I can see myself becoming a monarch after consuming it…”

An Imperial Emperor whose face was covered in divine rays walked on the Star River and approached Zhong Yue while murmuring, “The saint herb could help me realize my dream,! No matter how much I cultivated, I just couldn’t ascend to Heavenly Monarch and now, the chance to become one is right before me! Give me the herb right now!”

His voice emitted shockwaves and the Star River waved vigorously under the shockwaves.

Another Imperial Emperor covered in divine rays also murmured, “I, too, saw the vision you see. I saw myself becoming a Heavenly Monarch, gods bowing before me, worshipping me and bestowing me with glory and honor! And I, I will shine brightly and make a name for myself that will last for eternity…”

“I want it! Give it to me!” shouted the fifth Imperial Emperor as he walked towards Zhong Yue with his arms stretched out.

Zhong Yue moved an inch and right away, the presence of the Imperial Emperors squizzed the air around him and he didn’t dare to move recklessly anymore.

“I only have one and there are five of you.”

Zhong Yue forced out a smile, “How are you going to split it?”

“Hand it over first and we shall decide!” shouted the Imperial Emperors in sync.

Long Zhi’s nine faces were all twisted and she giggled, “Little Yi, we all know that you are a cunning and dangerous person. But I must say that you really are optimistic if you plan to form a crack in our relationships with each other! We’ve been through a lot, stood before the gate of death together and we’ve known each other for years! Just give us the saint herb right now!”

“Okay!”

Zhong Yue shouted suddenly and took out a divine cauldron, which emitted abnormally fragrant scent. Right away, the cauldron caught the Imperial Emperors’ attention and without a sign, Zhong Yue hurled it towards the Heavenly River as he shouted, “There you go!”

The Imperial Emperors acted instantly; they all charged towards the cauldron and one of them managed to grab onto the cauldron first but just as he wanted to keep it away, another few hands were also onto the cauldron.

Krong—

A serious of explosion occurred; the Imperial Emperors each launched an attack at each other and the impact from their clashes shattered the divine ray shrouding them, exposing their real appearances.

At the same time, Zhong Yue backed off immediately, charging right into the Star Gate. In the next moment, Zhong Yue got out of the Astral Door at the center of the Heaven Suppression Fortress and charged towards the ancient ship from the Dark Age.

Above the river, the five Imperial Emperors looked at each other, each with a gloomy expression and their hands were grabbing onto the cauldron firmly.

This cauldron was the Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace forged by Zhong Yue using the power of the gods and the 28 Heavens, which raised it to the level of a Deity Overlord but still, it was nothing more than a toy before these Imperial Emperors.

“Brothers and sisters.”

The “second brother” said in a seemingly sad tone, “I am already old and you are all still young. You can all wait but I can’t. I really need this herb to get into the Heavenly Monarch level.”

“Since you are already too old, you should take a rest and enjoy the rest of your life.”

Long Zhi burst out laughing, “I suppose this herb should be given to me!”

“Then get in line!”

The “fourth sister” smirked, “Sister, I am the one that needs this herb the most! Do you still remember that I once saved your life? You said you owe me one back then and now, it is your time to return the favor.”

The “fifth brother” then mockingly said, “So all those years we’ve been together means nothing in front of this herb? You’ve all disappointed me! If you still care about our relationship, then you should give this herb to me!”

“How can you be so selfish!”

“Seventh brother” shouted, “Respect your elders and love the youngers! I am the youngest here and the herb should be given to me! If you insist on fighting for the herb, then don’t blame me for fighting back!’

All of a sudden, amidst the quarrel, the “second brother” said softly, “Heh, what relationship? Is this relationship more important than your own life?”

Hearing this, the Imperial Emperors tightened their grip and without a sign, they attacked each other and their relationship that lasted for so long shattered right at this moment!

Rogue waves formed in the Star River and when the waves slammed onto the Heaven Suppression Fortress’ walls, the walls trembled before the waves but thank god for Zhong Yue’s order, there were no casualties as the gods had already retreated.

The five Imperial Emperors’ battle was much more intense than the one between Zhong Yue and Long Zhi. As their respective Imperial Emperor level divine weapons were unsheathed, they all each unleashed powerful attacks at each other. With a swing of the sword, the dimension was sliced apart and the stars died out with a simple wave. In just a moment, the five Imperial Emperors suffered a certain level of injuries at once and they were all covered in blood.

At this moment, they lost control over their rationality before the Hundredth Reincarnated Amaryllis’s scent. If they were not entirely lost in the Hundredth Reincarnated Amaryllis’s scent, they wouldn’t even be fighting each other to death just for a herb. However, the Hundredth Reincarnated Amaryllis had shown them what would possibly happen when they became Heavenly Monarchs, they could no longer see themselves stuck in the Imperial Emperor level and they would die for the Hundredth Reincarnated Amaryllis just to achieve what was shown to them. With that, their relationship was thrown into the drain and they were now unleashing deadly moves against each other!

…

Suddenly, the Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace was shattered by their raw strength and the Imperial Emperors were all stunned when they looked at the Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace’s pieces lying in their hands.

“I don’t have the saint herb!”

“Not here either!”

“No luck!”

…

Shock and raged seeped into the Imperial Emperors upon discovering that there was no saint herb but only some scent from the herb that lingered in the Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace as the herb was stored in it.

“How dare he trick us!”

The Imperial Emperors immediately charged towards the Heaven Suppression Fortress while the “second brother” smirked, “This brat! How dare he try to create conflict between us! Does he not know how strong our bond is!”

The “seventh brother” shouted, “Brat Yi! Our relationship is something you can never destroy! What you did only managed to provoke us even more and convince us to kill you!’

At the same time, just as Zhong Yue boarded the ancient ship, a cold chill traveled down his spine, “Your Majesty, you’re here?”

Behind him, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian looked at him with an eerie gaze, which caused Zhong Yue skin to rise with goosebumps all over!

Clearly, the scent also spread into the Xian Tian Palace, attracting Imperial Emperor Xian Tian to this place.

Without Fu Qizhi and Fu Yanshan, the two human Imperial Emperors’ noticing, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian snuck into the fortress and quickly appeared before Zhong Yue.

“Mister Yi, I can feel it……”

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s eyes were blurry right now and he dreamily murmured, “I saw myself sitting in the throne, the gods kneeling before me and the countless lives worshipping me out there… Mister Yi, you are my servant and you should be helping me loyally. So……”

His face twisted and greed filled his mind, “So you should give me the saint herb!”

His voice suddenly became extremely demonic as if there were two voices, “Give it to me!”

“I want to become the Heavenly Monarch!”

“I want to conquer the world, the countless races, and the universe! I want to become the ruler of everything!”

“Give the herb to me!”

Hearing this, Zhong Yue made up his decision and he turned around decisively. He raised his head, looked at this Imperial Emperor that suddenly turned into another man and said, “Ascending into the Heavenly Monarch is not hard for you to do, Your Majesty. Why do you want to go through so much trouble to rob me off my saint herb? I am now serving you loyally so that you can rule the universe but here you are, committing something so cold that will cost you my loyalty. Is this what a wise ruler should do? After robbing me of my saint herb, do you think I will still serve you loyally?”

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s eyes cleared out right away and he covered his face with his sleeves. He turned around and left the scene as he shouted, “Mister Yi! I’ve lost control of myself and I even thought of robbing you. Please forgive me!”

“Your Majesty, your friends! Please take them with you!”

Zhong Yue shouted but Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was already nowhere in sight.

“Imperial Emperor Xian Tian is indeed an impressive one but his Dao brothers and sisters are clearly much more inferior to him!”

Zhong Yue bit his lips and when he saw the five Imperial Emperors charging at him, he had goosebumps all over again and he immediately channeled the Innate Yi Dao into the ship.

Weng-

The ship stretched out its thousand pairs of wings, ascended into the skies and Zhong Yue suddenly feel someone standing on the other side of the ship. He was a little stunned and when he noticed it was Yin Fanxuan who was helping him activate the ship, he couldn’t help but shout at her angrily, “Leave this instance! It’s not safe here!”
