High Martial Arts Era

Chapter 728 A Shocking Bounty (9K)

The Immortal Realm is extremely vast and expansive, with countless planets and continents inhabited by countless indigenous life forms, and alien life forms from other eternal ruins scattered everywhere.

The most powerful have always been the three immortal temples and 211 star cities.

Of the 211 star cities, most were established by the rulers, and theoretically, they could still be breached... but the three supreme star cities are absolutely invincible.

Before the supreme being vanished, they were known as cities that would never fall.

Absolute safety attracts a large number of powerful individuals. Not only do most of the Dark Domains belonging to the Supreme gather here, but also many ordinary forces from other Dark Domains, and even some peak Emperor Realm experts, are willing to come and submit.

The number of powerful individuals far exceeds that of ordinary star cities.

Furthermore, the space-time surrounding any Supreme Star City is considered a 'forbidden zone' for extraterrestrial life forms, which are generally unwilling to approach.

At this moment, in the heart of the Cold Journey Supreme Star City, within the 'Cold Journey Divine Palace', in an incomparably vast hall.

The Cold Nether God Emperor and the Flame Ruins Quasi-Saint have already arrived here.

Countless stars even floated in the hall.

"Whoosh~" A colossal creature covered in black scales slowly emerged, and as soon as it appeared, the entire hall seemed to fall into absolute darkness.

As darkness descended, the stars vanished instantly, only to revive again, only to be destroyed once more… This was an extremely bizarre and recurring cycle.

It was as if only this majestic black presence was eternal.

Compared to him, even the Cold Nether God Emperor and the Flame Ruins Quasi-Saint appeared weak.

"Lord of the Dark Furnace," said the Cold Nether God Emperor, bowing slightly.

"Senior Brother." The Quasi-Saint Yanxu also bowed his head.

The towering black figure before them was none other than the 'Dark Furnace Ruler,' one of the seven rulers of the Cold Journey Supreme Star City.

In terms of strength, he is not ranked first among the seven rulers.

However, in terms of status, he is the highest among the seven rulers.

Because he is the ruler of the Cold Journey Universe.

Just as Tianluo Star City has hundreds of Emperor Realm experts, but in critical moments, only the most core dozens of Emperor Realm experts in the Tianluo Universe can be relied upon... The same applies to Supreme Star City.

In the Cold Journey Supreme Star City, apart from the Emperor Realm puppets and native Emperor Realm beings, there have long been thousands of Emperor Realm beings residing here.

But at the very core are only the hundred or so Emperor Realm experts from the Cold Journey Universe... followed by the thousand or so Emperor Realm experts from the Third Dark Domain.

Finally, there are the Emperor-level powerhouses from other Dark Domains on the outer periphery; these are all vassals.

Of the seven rulers of the Cold Journey Supreme Star City, only two rulers came from the Cold Journey Universe... The Dark Furnace Ruler was one of them.

Moreover, the Dark Furnace Master is the personal disciple of the Cold Journey Supreme, so naturally he holds the highest position.

Normally, all matters, big and small, in the Cold Journey Supreme Star City are handled by the Dark Furnace Master... This time, the order to send the Cold Nether God Emperor to Tianluo Star City was given by him.

"Cold Netherworld, Fiery Ruins."

The towering black being looked down at the two, its voice deep: "I am roughly aware of the situation, but didn't I give the order? Even if the Quasi-Saint of Heart Source refused Master's invitation... I was supposed to try to avoid conflict, right? How did it come to this?"

"The Dark Furnace Overlord".

"We are indeed acting on your orders and do not wish to clash with the Quasi-Saint of Heart Source," the Cold Nether God Emperor said respectfully. "But that Chaos God Emperor is too ungrateful and keeps provoking us... For the sake of the dignity of Supreme Star City, we have no choice but to do this. We hope that the Sovereign will understand."

"This is the specific video footage of the exchange at that time. Please take a look, Your Majesty."

call!
The Cold Nether God Emperor waved his hand, and the images from that time immediately appeared... As time passed, the Dark Furnace Sovereign silently watched and pondered.

"Junior Brother Yanxu, what do you think?" The Dark Furnace Sovereign looked at Quasi-Saint Yanxu.

“The potential of the Quasi-Saint of the Heart Source is enormous, with a more than 90% probability of becoming a Ruler, and even a slight hope of becoming a Supreme. Logically, we should not have a conflict.” The Quasi-Saint of the Flame Ruins solemnly said, “But judging from the attitude of the Chaos God Emperor, he intends to be an enemy of my Supreme Star City… He should be eliminated as soon as possible.”

"Even if we cannot completely eradicate them, we should suppress them with all our might to prevent them from becoming a major enemy in the future."

His words were very clear.

Try not to offend them... but if they are already enemies, then you should act swiftly and decisively.

"Ah."

“I will consider it. You all go down first and prepare for the Abyss Sea Sacrifice trip.” The Dark Furnace Sovereign’s voice was neither happy nor sad: “Especially Junior Brother Yanxu, you have only cultivated for a million years and you have encountered this opportunity... This is your good fortune.”

"Strive to seize the opportunity."

"If we can break through to the Dominator level in one fell swoop, I believe Master will be delighted," said the Dark Furnace Dominator.

"Yes." Even the Quasi-Saint of Yanxu felt the pressure.

Being a supreme disciple is an honor, and one enjoys abundant cultivation resources, but it also comes with great pressure.

The Supreme Being's requirement for his disciples is to become rulers.

Unfortunately, over the long years, even with the personal guidance of the Supreme Being, only three disciples have been able to meet the requirements, which shows how difficult it is to become a Sovereign... Among them, only the Dark Furnace Sovereign came from the Cold Journey Universe.

“Although Senior Brother Yu Yi and Senior Sister Lian Fu are also rulers, they did not come from the Hanxing Universe.” Yan Xu Quasi-Saint thought to himself, “As long as I become a ruler, in terms of status, I will be able to rank third in the entire Supreme Star City.”

of course.

Even the Quasi-Saint of Yanxu knew how difficult it was to become a ruler; one had to take the fourth step in both of the two top-tier eternal paths.

Most strong individuals are only proficient in one path that aligns with their inner selves. It is extremely difficult to open up a second top-tier, eternal path, and even more difficult to reach the fourth step.

Throughout countless ages, countless peak Emperor Realm experts across the universe have been trapped at this step.

Immediately.

With the departure of the Flame Ruins Quasi-Saint and the Cold Nether God Emperor, only that enormous dark figure remained in this vast temple.

He pointed towards the distant void.

hum~
An invisible fluctuation appeared, and quickly, a phantom image of a man dressed in magnificent robes, exuding an aura of nobility, emerged.

It was none other than the Heavenly Lord of Luo.

"Brother Anlu," the Heavenly Luo Sovereign smiled, "Long time no see. What brings you, the Supreme Star City Commander, to send me a message?"

“Brother Tianluo, you don’t need to change the subject.” The Dark Furnace Sovereign smiled calmly, “You should know that I sent Leng Ming to Tianluo Star City to inquire about the Abyss Sea Sacrifice.”

"know."

"My Tianluo Star City is an ally of the Cold Journey Supreme Star City, and naturally we will obey the Supreme's orders." The Tianluo Ruler smiled and said, "The Cloud Moon God Emperor should not have refused the Cold Nether God Emperor. The strongmen of my Tianluo Star City will act according to the Supreme's orders after entering the Abyss Sea Sacrifice."

"The Cloud Moon God Emperor did not refuse," said the Dark Furnace Sovereign. "But are you aware that your Chaos God Emperor dared to provoke my Supreme Star City?"

"Oh? The Chaos God Emperor? What is it? Let me ask the Cloud Moon God Emperor first." The Heavenly Luo Ruler looked puzzled.

It's as if they truly don't know.

Seeing this, the Dark Furnace Overlord said no more and quietly waited for the other party to perform.

After a while.

"I see." The Heavenly Lord seemed to realize this only then, and said with a regretful expression, "It was actually the Cold Journey Supreme who accepted the disciple. The Heart Source Quasi-Saint refused, which is a great opportunity for him and a loss for him."

"As for the Chaos God Emperor..."

"He can only be considered an ally of my Tianluo Yu Alliance, not one of my subordinates. He's always been like this, I'm used to it." The Tianluo Sovereign looked at the Dark Furnace Sovereign: "On his behalf, I apologize to you and to Supreme Star City. Can this matter be let go?"

The Dark Furnace Overlord also stared at the Heavenly Luo Overlord.

He heard it too.

The Heavenly Lord did not want to do everything in his power to protect the Chaos God Emperor, otherwise... he would not have defined the Chaos God Emperor as an 'ally'.

"Tianluo, you don't need to apologize to me."

“Since you know what happened, you know that what the Chaos God Emperor said was a provocation against the Supreme One, and he should be severely punished in principle.” The Dark Furnace Sovereign said calmly, “However, for your sake, I will give him a chance.”

"Have him come over now."

Tianluo sighed inwardly, realizing that his 'limited request' had not earned the true understanding of Anlu.

The other party still intends to pursue the matter.

But even the Heavenly Ruler was not surprised.

Since the Chaos God Emperor took the initiative to provoke the Supreme Star City, he would not help him bear the consequences... In the end, the Chaos God Emperor was indeed not under his command.

“Alright, I’ll have Chaos come over now,” said the Heavenly Lord.

call!
Soon, a golden-haired, black-armored phantom appeared beside the Heavenly Ruler, none other than the Chaos God Emperor who had condensed his avatar upon receiving the message.

"Lord Tianluo." The Chaos God Emperor bowed slightly, expressing his respect for the Lord of Star City.

"Hmm." Tianluo Dominator nodded, then pointed to the towering black figure on the other end of the projection: "Chaos, this is the Dark Furnace Dominator of Hanxing Supreme Star City. I have summoned you here in the hope of resolving your dispute with Hanxing Supreme Star City."

“Dark Furnace Overlord.” The Chaos God Emperor looked at the other party.

This was not the first time the two sides had met.

He had met the other person twice in the long years before, but both times it was by chance encounters while venturing into dangerous places, and they were not very familiar with each other.

"Tianluo, your ally is indeed arrogant," the Dark Furnace Overlord sneered. "He doesn't even bother to bow to me."

"Chaos." The Heavenly Lord frowned slightly.

"I will only bow to a ruler who is worthy of my respect," the Chaos God Emperor said calmly. "Though I am weak, not everyone is worthy of my respect."

Clearly, in his eyes, the Dark Furnace Overlord was not qualified to make him bow.

The Heavenly Lord sighed inwardly.

He could see that the Chaos God Emperor was determined to break with the Cold Journey Supreme Star City.

"Hahaha!"

"You really have guts!" The Dark Furnace Master's voice also changed, becoming quite cold: "Tian Luo, I was willing to give you face, but since he doesn't know what's good for him, there's nothing I can do."

The Chaos God Emperor watched coldly from the sidelines.

His temperament was such that once he learned that the mastermind behind it all was Supreme Hanxing, he had already made up his mind... If it weren't for this kind of temperament, he wouldn't have been able to cultivate to this level.

Just like in the Dream Universe, when the Abyss God Emperor rose to power, he was incredibly strong. However, because he couldn't stand the path the Abyss God Emperor was taking, the Chaos God Emperor kept fighting against him and constantly suppressed him.

"Dark Furnace".

The Lord of Tianluo spoke again, quite sincerely, saying, "Chaos is stubborn by nature, but it is ultimately an ally of my Tianluo Star City. There is actually no major conflict between you two... In fact, there is no need to start a war. Could you please stop here for my sake?"

The Chaos God Emperor was surprised. He never expected that even with his performance, the Heavenly Luo Ruler would speak again.

Logically speaking, the Heavenly Lord has already done enough.

Making such repeated requests is a loss of face for oneself.

The ruler, with such a noble status, is not someone who can usually achieve this level.

"Tianluo." The Dark Furnace Sovereign was also slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected the Tianluo Sovereign to speak in succession.

This puzzled him somewhat.

After a few seconds of silence.

“You’ve shown me this much, so I’ll give Chaos Palace one last chance.” The Dark Furnace Sovereign said slowly, “He’s provoking the Supreme Being, so the Chaos God Emperor must come to the Supreme Star City in person to apologize.”

"If he is willing to come, Supreme Star City will not pursue the matter further for your sake."

Tianluo, the ruler, looked at the Chaos God Emperor.

"Tianluo, I'm sorry." The Chaos God Emperor shook his head and said, "I don't trust them, so I won't go to Hanxing Supreme Star City."

The Lord of Tianluo was helpless.

The Supreme Star City of Cold Journey wants to maintain its dignity, so it's perfectly reasonable for it to request the Chaos God Emperor to personally go and apologize.

It's not wrong for the Chaos God Emperor not to go.

"ridiculous."

"I, Hanxing Supreme Star City, would not stoop to deceiving you. I have made a promise, and I will certainly keep it." The Dark Furnace Overlord's voice was icy: "But you have already missed your chance."

"There's no second chance."

“Even if you bow your head and beg for forgiveness now, my Cold Journey Supreme Star City will not forgive you, much less the Chaos Palace.” The Dark Furnace Overlord’s voice was icy.

He had made up his mind to take action against the Chaos Palace.

The reason for not issuing the order directly before was twofold: firstly, to consider the future potential of the Quasi-Saint Xinyuan, and secondly, to consider the attitude of the Heavenly Luo Overlord... The Supreme Star City is incredibly powerful, but it is not truly invincible.

It is also necessary to form alliances and cooperation.

If we take action against the forces under the Star City allies without warning, what will the many smaller forces belonging to the Cold Journey Supreme camp think?
But now, the Dark Furnace Overlord feels that he has enough reasons.

"Hahaha." The Chaos God Emperor laughed instead: "Dark Furnace, in your eyes, the promise of the Cold Journey Supreme Star City is very important."

"However, in my eyes, ever since Supreme Hanxing ambushed me and cut off my path to domination, Supreme Hanxing's promises to Star City have been utter garbage! Not even worth a single Eternal Crystal!"

“I still say the same thing.”

"My Chaos Divine Court has always been accustomed to freedom."

"We do not wish to be enemies with the Hanxingyu Alliance, but if the Hanxingyu Alliance insists on fighting, then my Chaos Divine Court will accompany you to the end." The Chaos God Emperor stared directly at the other party, showing no fear whatsoever.

However, his words startled both the Dark Furnace Sovereign and the Heavenly Luo Sovereign.

Did the Cold Journey Supreme launch a sneak attack?

"Insolence!" The Dark Furnace Sovereign's voice was filled with boundless killing intent: "Chaos, you truly seek death, daring to slander the Supreme One!"

"Humph!"

"So what if you're loud?" The Chaos God Emperor sneered. "Whether it's true or not, you can find out by asking Supreme Hanxing when you get back."

"Also, I'll tell you something else."

"From this day forward, my Chaos Palace is detached from Tianluo Star City, and everything I do is unrelated to Tianluo Star City." The Chaos God Emperor sneered, "Farewell!"

hum~
The phantom of the Chaos God Emperor completely dissipated, leaving only the thoughtful Tianluo Ruler and the furious Anlu Ruler.

"Tianluo, don't believe this nonsense from Chaos." The Dark Furnace Sovereign said in a low voice, "What kind of existence is a Supreme Being? Even if they were to take action, it would be open and aboveboard. Why would they sneak attack a peak Emperor Realm cultivator?"

"I know." Lord Tianlu nodded, seemingly believing him.

"Dark Furnace".

"I am powerless to intervene in this matter." The Heavenly Lord continued, "The Heavenly Lord Alliance will no longer interfere in your conflict with the Chaos Palace."

"Row."

“But I have a request.” The Dark Furnace Overlord said directly: “From now on, the strong people of Tianluo Star City must no longer contact the strong people of the Chaos Palace lineage, and must no longer engage in treasure trading or intelligence trading with them... You must also provide us with as much information as possible about the whereabouts of the strong people of the Chaos Palace lineage.”

“I can’t do that.” The Heavenly Lord shook his head and said, “I can only promise that Heavenly Luo Star City will no longer protect the Chaos Palace lineage of experts… and at the same time, I require members of the Heavenly Luo Universe Alliance not to engage in material transactions with members of the Chaos Palace.”

"The rest of the demands would be tantamount to betraying the Chaos Palace, which I cannot fulfill."

"If my Tianluo Star City does it, once it gets out..."

"With over eighty divine palaces and hundreds of emperors under my command, everyone is in danger," said the Heavenly Lord of Luo City frankly. As the lord of a star city, he also had his own bottom line.

"it is good."

"As long as you, Lord Tianluo, stop protecting the Chaos Palace lineage, that will suffice." Lord Anluo nodded, not expecting Lord Tianluo to actually fulfill his request.

After all.

Tianluo Star City is merely an ally of Hanxing Supreme Star City, not a subordinate... In fact, if the Tianluo Overlord insists on protecting the Chaos Palace lineage, Supreme Star City would probably have to carefully consider whether it is willing to go to war.

……

In the hall of Tianluo Star City, where the Tianluo Ruler resided, the light screen projection had just dissipated.

With a whoosh, a large amount of light and shadow converged, and the phantom of the Chaos God Emperor reappeared.

"Chaos, you heard my conversation with the Dark Furnace Overlord just now," the Heavenly Luo Overlord sighed softly. "This is all I can do."

"Tianluo, thank you," said the Chaos God Emperor.

He also understood that he had never joined the core of the Tianluo Alliance... It was already remarkable that the Tianluo Overlord had gone to such lengths for the Chaos Palace.

"No need for thanks. We've known each other for so long, and you've helped me a great deal," Lord Tianlu said with emotion. "I believe what you say."

The Chaos God Emperor smiled.

Whether the other party believes that they were ambushed by Hanxing Supreme is not important... Hanxing Supreme was able to ambush the Chaos God Emperor.

So why couldn't they launch a sneak attack on Tianluo Ruler?
All the Chaos God Emperor had to do was plant a seed of doubt in the other party's heart. "The Supreme Star Cities value their reputation immensely," said the Heavenly Luo Sovereign. "You have thoroughly enraged them today, and retaliation will come soon. You must be prepared... I suggest that your Chaos God Court should try to establish contact with the other two Supreme Star Cities."

“Chijun Supreme Star City has always been on good terms with the experts of my Eighth Dark Domain, so it is a good choice.”

"Although your Chaos Divine Court is not in danger of destruction."

"But if many Quasi-Saints and Emperors wish to continue their cultivation and exploration in the numerous Eternal Ruins... only a Supreme Being can contend with a Supreme Being," said the Heavenly Lord.

The Lord of Tianluo knew Hanxing Supreme Star City's style well; once he was determined to start a war, he certainly wouldn't hold back.

“Yes, I will discuss it with Xinmeng again,” said the Chaos God Emperor.

In their plan, although they had the idea of ​​forming alliances with other supreme forces, the prerequisite was that they themselves had enough strength.

If one lacks sufficient strength, there is no point in talking about cooperation; one is merely a vassal.

“That’s true. Xinmeng’s methods are mysterious. With him around, perhaps my worries are unnecessary.” Tianluo Sovereign shook his head slightly and said, “Alright, if your Chaos Divine Court needs any treasures that are inconvenient to purchase, you can send a message to me or Yunyue Divine Emperor.”

"As allies, we will still help you as much as possible behind the scenes."

"Thank you," the Chaos God Emperor said with a smile, before his avatar completely vanished.

From start to finish.

Neither the Heavenly Ruler nor the Chaos God Emperor nor Li Yuan mentioned stripping them of their guardian status... Nor did the Chaos God Emperor mention it.

Both sides had their own agendas.

Inside the main hall, only the Heavenly Lord remained.

"Did the Cold Journey Supreme really launch a sneak attack on the Chaos God Emperor and sever his path to domination?" Heavenly Luo Sovereign pondered.

He wasn't sure if it was true or not.

But it seems that only this reason can explain why the Chaos God Emperor completely turned against him.

"It's probably true." Sovereign Tianlu gently closed his eyes: "What's the reason? Could it be that the Chaos God Emperor is involved in some great secret? Is it related to eternity? Or a treasure above the level of a top-tier Emperor Weapon? Or even an Eternal Dao Weapon? Or even a Saint Weapon?"

In an instant, many thoughts arose in the mind of the Heavenly Lord.

But unconsciously, he became more wary of Han Xing Supreme.

"This struggle will probably continue indefinitely," the Heavenly Lord muttered to himself. "Heh, if the Quasi-Saint of Heart Source can truly become the Supreme in the end, that would be truly spectacular."

He carried too many responsibilities and the fates of too many people on his shoulders, so he could not allow the entire Tianluoyu Alliance to get involved in a war with Supreme Star City.

But the same thing.

He was also unwilling to completely offend the Chaos Divine Court... The Chaos Divine Court already had a mysterious Heart Dream God Emperor, whom he could never see through.

Now, there's another terrifying prodigy, Li Yuan.

Once Li Yuan withstands this storm and rises against all odds, both sides will be in the Eighth Dark Domain, which will be a disaster for the Tianluoyu Alliance in the future.

"It's good that you've risen to the rank of Quasi-Saint of the Heart Source."

"So be it if I perish."

"I, the Tianluo Alliance, will not participate in this storm," the Tianluo Overlord silently thought to himself, knowing that doing so would yield the least benefit.

But the risk is also minimal.

……

In the distant, frigid city of Supreme Star.

call!
The Dark Furnace Overlord ended his conversation with the Heavenly Luo Overlord, the light screen projection dissipated, and after a moment of contemplation, his giant hoof gently touched the void once more.

Quickly!

Buzzing sounds filled the air as endless light and shadow converged, forming two enormous and majestic phantoms.

A figure, bathed in endless light, with four blue wings growing from his back, though a phantom, was still incomparably holy, exuding a vast life force.

Another figure, dressed in a barely visible purple gauze dress, exuded allure. However, upon closer inspection, one could discover that countless mysterious Dao patterns, seemingly real yet illusory, appeared on her exposed arms, thighs, and the expanse of snow-white skin.

The two illusory figures, facing the Dark Furnace Overlord from afar, were clearly beings of the same level.

"Brother Anlu."

"Second Senior Brother." Both towering figures bowed slightly.

"Junior Brother Yu Yi, Junior Sister Lian Fu," the Dark Furnace Sovereign said with a smile. The two who came were also disciples of Supreme Han Xing.

The three of them were the only three disciples of the Supreme Star City, and also the three most powerful among the seven Supreme Star City rulers.

Within the Supreme Star City, any major events are usually decided after discussion among the three of them.

"We invited you here to discuss matters concerning the Chaos Palace," the Dark Furnace Sovereign stated directly.

Quickly, the Dark Furnace Overlord told the Feather Yi Overlord and the Lotus Talisman Overlord the whole story.

"A mere Chaos God Emperor dares to slander my master," the Lotus Symbol Sovereign said coldly. "He's incredibly audacious and deserves to die."

"First they rejected Master's good intentions, and then they provoked us repeatedly." Sovereign Yu Yi said in a low voice, "Now, that Quasi-Saint of the Heart Source has not yet become an Emperor, and the Chaos Palace is already acting like this... Once he becomes an Emperor, how arrogant will he become? We must suppress him."

Without any hindrance, the three rulers reached a consensus—to go to war.

"Alright, then let's proceed as usual."

“Suppress them from multiple angles.” The Dark Furnace Overlord said softly, “Within the Heart Dream Universe, the enemy who supports the Chaos Divine Court is the Cloud Scenery God Emperor. The Cloud Scenery God Emperor is suspected to have become the Abyss Overlord. The two sides are mortal enemies.”

"Although Emperor Yunjing is from the Abyss lineage, he has no conflict with my Hanxing Supreme Star City."

“Supporting him might have a surprising effect,” said the Dark Furnace Overlord.

Although the Abyss God Emperor uses the Abyss as his title, in reality, most powerful Emperors in the vast universe refer to him as the 'Cloud Scenery God Emperor'.

“In the Eighth Dark Domain, he incited the Sovereign-level forces to wage war against him… Tianluoyu Alliance is unlikely to attack, but there are still the Celestial Court and Tongtian Realm, two major forces.” Sovereign Yu Yi said, “The Celestial Court has a grudge against the Chaos Divine Court before, I will go and talk to the Celestial Emperor.”

"leftover."

"It's about suppressing the Chaos Palace among the many immortal realms," said Sovereign Yu Yi. "I will transmit the information about every Quasi-Saint of the Chaos Divine Court as soon as possible."

"Order my Hanxingyu Alliance to take action against all the Quasi-Saints in all the Eternal Ruins. Kill them one by one until the members of the Chaos Palace dare not show their faces."

Three major solutions.

The simultaneous encirclement and suppression from within the universe, the Dark Domain, and numerous eternal ruins... was designed to force the powerful figures of the Chaos Divine Court to remain hidden.

The growth of strong individuals requires a conducive external environment and constant trials and tribulations.

If the siege continues at Hanxing Supreme Star City, the growth of the next generation of powerful figures in the Chaos Divine Court will become even more difficult.

"The suppression of other powerful figures in the Chaos Divine Court is merely a supplementary measure."

"What's truly important is targeting the Heart Dream God Emperor, the Chaos God Emperor, and the Heart Source Quasi-Saint," the Dark Furnace Overlord said slowly, "especially the Heart Source Quasi-Saint."

"Next, we must do everything we can to find the whereabouts of the Quasi-Saint of Heart Source."

"Once we detect it, we will act immediately... using our secret treasures to try and annihilate his true form completely," the Dark Furnace Sovereign said slowly.

It is extremely difficult to completely annihilate a seventh-tier quasi-saint.

Especially for someone like Li Yuan, whose vitality is incredibly strong... but for a supreme power with a deep foundation, it is still possible to achieve this.

But all of this depends on finding Li Yuan's true identity.

As for the Heart Dream God Emperor and the Chaos God Emperor, they were not confident in completely annihilating them.

"Ah."

"Once found, our seven rulers will act immediately." Ruler Yu Yi and Ruler Lian Fu both nodded in agreement.

They are very experienced in dealing with the rise of such unparalleled geniuses.

Ideally, you should try to win them over and make use of them. If that fails, then try not to become enemies. But if you are destined to be enemies, then you should go all out to completely annihilate them before they grow stronger.

"Relying on the seven rulers is not enough. We must mobilize all the Emperor Realm experts to find his true form and even capture him directly."

"Ah."

"Many Emperor-level beings only nominally obey orders. To entice them, you must offer huge sums of money."

"The huge profits could even attract powerful figures from other major forces to take action."

soon.

As orders were issued, the massive Cold Journey Supreme Star City began to operate, and the news that the Cold Journey Universe Alliance had officially started its war against the Chaos Divine Court spread rapidly.

……

The news first spread within the Cold Journey Supreme Star City.

"The Chaos Palace? The Chaos Divine Court?"

"There are only three true God Emperors, and even with the God Realm puppets and native God Realm beings, there are only nine... What a weak force."

"You dare to wage war against my Supreme Star City?"

"It's just looking for death."

"The rewards are really high! Killing any of their Quasi-Saints will bring extra rewards, and if you can find the whereabouts of an Emperor Realm expert, the rewards will be even higher..." Millions of Quasi-Saints throughout the entire Cold Journey Supreme Star City were discussing this.

Many aspiring saints were tempted.

Soon after, a nearly explosive message was delivered directly by the Dark Furnace Overlord.

"Bounty offered!"

"A bounty has been placed on the Quasi-Saint of Heart Source."

"Find his true form and its whereabouts, reward 10 billion units of Eternal Crystals? Capture one of his true forms and successfully hand it over to the Dark Furnace Overlord, reward 3000 billion units of Eternal Crystals?"

"crazy!"

3000 billion cubic meters of Eternal Crystals? That's insane!

"real or fake?"

"It is true, of course. This was said by the Dark Furnace Overlord himself, and it is a promise made with the reputation of Supreme Star City. There is no doubt about it."

"3000 billion cubic meters of Eternal Crystals! Good heavens!" This explosive news spread rapidly throughout the entire Immortal World at an astonishing speed, more than ten or a hundred times faster than the news of Hanxing Supreme Star City's war against the Chaos Divine Court.

Money moves people's hearts.

For those at the Quasi-Saint or even Emperor level, ordinary treasures are simply not enough to tempt them... But the Eternal Crystal has a wide range of uses, including nurturing divine bodies and souls, expanding the inner universe, refining weapons, refining pills, and quickly restoring divine power.

Therefore, apart from the most precious treasures like top-tier imperial weapons, all other treasures can be obtained by spending enough Eternal Crystals.

The 3000 billion cubic meters of Eternal Crystal is an incredible fortune.

This is enough to drive most Emperor Realm cultivators crazy... It should be noted that although it is difficult to buy a high-grade Emperor Weapon that suits one's own needs, if enough Eternal Crystals are offered, generally 150 billion cubic Eternal Crystals can definitely be purchased.

and this.

That's enough to buy at least 20 top-grade imperial weapons!

……

In less than a day, this series of explosive news had spread throughout Tianluo Star City, becoming known to countless powerful figures in the city.

One of the tall buildings in the core area of ​​Xingcheng.

"3000 billion cubic meters of Eternal Crystals?" The Purple Fire God King was shocked and somewhat incredulous: "No matter what force, even a strongman from the Abyss lineage, as long as they can capture one of Junior Uncle's true forms and hand it over to the Han Xingyu Alliance, they will receive a reward?"

It's too exaggerated.

Even the Purple Fire God King was slightly tempted.

It's impossible not to be tempted.

Even for a seventh-order quasi-saint, this was still a fortune beyond his imagination.

"As expected of Supreme Star City, they are quite generous, much more than I expected." Emperor Yunyue was quite calm: "3000 billion cubic meters of Eternal Crystals? That's almost enough to exchange for a top-tier Emperor Weapon. It's enough to attract any peak Emperor Realm expert or even some Sovereigns to take action. It's quite worthy of your junior uncle's talent."

"Master."

"Aren't you surprised?" the Purple Fire God King couldn't help but say, "This is only one of Junior Uncle's true forms that has been captured."

"Haha."

“With the capabilities of Supreme Star City, if they can truly capture your junior uncle’s true form, then they can use some extremely special methods to completely annihilate him,” said the Cloud Moon God Emperor.

The Purple Fire God King was startled.

Completely annihilate him? In his mind, Li Yuan was equivalent to an Emperor Realm expert. Logically speaking, it would be almost impossible to completely annihilate an Emperor Realm expert.

“Even a ruler would find it difficult to do, but a supreme being can,” the Cloud Moon God Emperor said softly.

"Doesn't this mean that Junior Uncle is in great danger?" Purple Fire God King hurriedly asked.

"It's dangerous."

"Once this news spreads throughout the vast universe, many of those at the peak of the Emperor Realm and those who were originally unwilling to offend him will probably be willing to take action." Emperor Yunyue sighed, "The benefits are high enough that even if we fail, even if your junior uncle becomes a Supreme in the future, those at the peak of the Emperor Realm and those who were once Supreme will not be afraid of retaliation."

The Purple Fire God King nodded.

Without any benefit, these peak Emperor Realm and Sovereign Realm experts would naturally not easily offend a peerless genius.

But when the stakes are high enough, anything can happen.

not to mention!
Li Yuan is currently only a seventh-level Quasi-Saint, and it is still unknown whether he can become a Ruler in the future. Why would those at the peak of the Emperor Realm and Rulers be afraid of him?

"This is a huge storm."

"Just like your grandmaster back then, he fought a constant war with the Abyss lineage and was hunted down by the Abyss lineage's supreme beings and many sovereigns... In one life-or-death battle after another, he finally became a supreme being, and even swept across the eight great Abyss Demon Caves, becoming a force to be reckoned with in the universe." The Cloud Moon God Emperor said with some emotion, "Now, your junior uncle has also encountered a great calamity."

"It is a calamity."

"But it is also a trial! If he can overcome the tribulation, he will definitely become stronger." There was a hint of expectation in the eyes of the Cloud Moon God Emperor.

……

The news spread like wildfire. Although the Chaos Palace lineage had left Tianluo Star City, its thousands of Quasi-Saints had interacted with powerful figures from different forces over the long years, and naturally had countless channels of communication.

They received the news quickly as well.

"what?"

"A full-scale war? 3000 billion cubic Eternal Crystals? A bounty on a Quasi-Saint of Heart Source?" Quasi-Saint Longya, Quasi-Saint Huanxin, Quasi-Saint Dikun, and God King Dongmang all saw this bounty figure.

They all felt a little uneasy.

It's really incredible.

I'm afraid that even selling the entire Chaos Palace wouldn't be enough to raise such a huge fortune.

“Some of my friends have been sending me messages, both openly and secretly, asking about the whereabouts of the Quasi-Saint Xinyuan.”

"Me too."

"Some of them were even best friends... but they were all moved."

"crazy!"

"Such a large fortune, just the 10 billion cubic meters of Eternal Crystals whose exact whereabouts are confirmed, is already incredible." The many quasi-saints of the Chaos Palace lineage exchanged messages.

crazy!

They went completely mad. The Quasi-Saints of the Chaos Palace lineage no longer dared to easily trust their former friends.

……

While the outside world was in chaos, the secret chamber within the Emperor's Divine Palace remained completely quiet.

Li Yuan's many true forms have been quietly cultivating here, and he is getting closer and closer to completing the introductory chapter of the "Hundred Paths Sacred Body" body refining method.

"3000 billion cubic meters of Eternal Crystals?"

"As expected of Supreme Star City, they don't make a move unless they're absolutely ruthless!" Li Yuan muttered, a slight smile appearing on his face. "Little Tomb, am I worth that many Eternal Crystals?"

"This price is too tempting, I'd even consider selling myself."
