The Heaven-shattering: I and Wu Shi compete for the throne

Chapter 820 Situation

However, the Quasi-Immortal Emperor is too important, not only as a high-end combat force against the strange dark race, but also as a reserve force for the Immortal Emperor.

Only by cultivating enough quasi-Immortal Emperors can their side have a greater chance of giving birth to more Immortal Emperors.

Only by producing more Immortal Emperors can they truly fight against the strange and dark races in the future, instead of being harvested and sacrificed by the strange and dark races every epoch, whenever the Heavenly Realm develops to a certain extent.

Moreover, those Quasi-Immortal Emperors are willing to fight alongside them against the insurmountable and bizarre Dark Clan. If they do not revive them, many Quasi-Immortal Emperors will definitely have reservations, and the number of Quasi-Immortal Emperors who will fight alongside them against the bizarre Dark Clan will become increasingly smaller.

As they face the strange and dark race, their ability to resist will become weaker and weaker. When the strange and dark race holds a small sacrifice and they become their target, the possibility of resisting and escaping without becoming a sacrifice will be lower.

Therefore, even if it takes a great deal of effort to revive a fallen quasi-immortal emperor, the immortal emperor above the heavens must take action to revive the fallen quasi-immortal emperor.

However, he was certain that the quasi-immortal emperors who died at the end of the last era would all be resurrected, and that they had already been resurrected, but for other reasons.

Although not all the Quasi-Immortal Emperors who died at the end of the last era have appeared in this era.

However, the Quasi-Immortal Emperors who died in battle at the end of the previous era all reappeared to participate in battle at the end of the previous era, and this era is no exception.

This era is nearing its peak, and the eerie dark races will surely launch a dark upheaval and hold a minor sacrifice soon.

In order to cope with the great calamity at the end of the era, have more power to fight against the strange dark race, and escape better, those quasi-immortal emperors who died in battle must have been resurrected.

At the end of the last era, the Immortal Emperors and Quasi-Immortal Emperors who died in battle have been resurrected, but the True Immortals and Immortal Kings who died at the end of the last era were not so lucky.

Among them, those with high aptitude, comprehension, and potential who are expected to break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, those with extremely close relationships with Immortal Emperors or Quasi-Immortal Emperors, and those with special uses will be resurrected by the Immortal Emperor. The rest will be buried in the ancient history of time.

However, the heavens above are so vast and powerful that they naturally give birth to a massive number of powerful beings.

Although some precious lands are occupied by dark strongholds such as the River of Souls, the Burial Pit of the Heavenly Emperor, the Floating Soil of the Four Extremes, and the Ancient Underworld, it is not difficult to cultivate and give birth to hundreds of thousands of Immortal Kings and tens of millions of True Immortals in each era.

It's not just true immortals and immortal kings; dozens of quasi-immortal emperors are born in each era.

However, it is not so easy for an Immortal Emperor to be born. Not to mention one era, even several eras may not be enough for an Immortal Emperor to be born.

Furthermore, the current situation above Heaven is not peaceful; it is extremely turbulent.

Although the strange and dark race is extremely powerful and terrifying, possessing ten sacrificial ancestors and ten immortal emperors, he deduced that there are more than six hundred quasi-immortal emperors who have revealed themselves.

Even disregarding the Ten Great Ancestors of the Sacrificial Cultivation, the Ten Immortal Emperors, over six hundred Quasi-Immortal Emperors, plus the Dark Immortal Emperors and Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperors who can rapidly resurrect after death by borrowing the power of the highlands, would be enough to sweep across the Heavenly Realm, completely occupying and ruling it. However, the eerie dark race has no such intention. Perhaps they see the Heavenly Realm as a pasture to be harvested periodically, or perhaps they want to use the beings of the Heavenly Realm as a whetstone to hone their descendants and cultivate more powerful beings…

The mysterious dark race has not revealed its full strength. The existence of the mysterious dark progenitor is almost unknown, and it has not swept across the heavens to completely dominate them.

Instead, a small sacrifice is held every epoch, and a large sacrifice is held every ten epochs, to harvest the living beings above the heavens.

After the harvest, they will retreat on their own, not occupying dominion, leaving only a few seeds to multiply freely, to be harvested in the next era.

At the end of the last era, a strange and dark race wanted to hold a small sacrifice, defining the sacrificial area, which included most of the land above the heavens.

In order to avoid being sacrificed, the powerful beings above the heavens united to resist. Knowing that they were no match for the enemy and that they were soon at a disadvantage in the battle, after discussing the matter, some of the Immortal Emperors and Quasi-Immortal Emperors decided to stay behind to cover the retreat, while the remaining Immortal Emperors and Quasi-Immortal Emperors fled with a group of True Immortals and Immortal Kings.

After the strange dark race's small sacrifice, it left behind a land full of devastation. The quasi-immortal emperors and immortal emperors who had fled from the heavens saw the strange dark race retreat and, knowing from experience, knew that the strange dark race would not attack them again, so they returned.

While helping to revive the Quasi-Immortal Emperors and Immortal Emperors who died in the battle after it was interrupted, he also recovered from his own injuries and losses, recuperated and nurtured new powerhouses...

At the beginning of this era, the powerful members of the strange dark race ignored the return of the fleeing Quasi-Immortal Emperors and Immortal Emperors, allowing them to recover and develop.

Li Daoming was not surprised by this!
If nothing unexpected happens, the higher-ups of the strange dark race should be digesting the small sacrifice's gains at that time, and wouldn't have time to pay attention to the Immortal Emperor and Quasi-Immortal Emperor who returned from the heavens.

Moreover, the return of the Immortal Emperors and Quasi-Immortal Emperors above the heavens to resume development might just be exactly what the strange and dark races want, and they would be delighted to see it.

Because if the Immortal Emperors and Quasi-Immortal Emperors above the heavens do not return to develop, but instead hide away, given the special and powerful nature of the Immortal Emperors and Quasi-Immortal Emperors, and the vastness of the heavens, even if the strange and dark races are very powerful, it would be difficult to find them. Therefore, when the small sacrifice is held at the end of the era, it would naturally be difficult to kill and sacrifice a portion of them.

Moreover, after the small sacrifice, most of the creatures in the vast land above the heavens were bloodied and sacrificed, leaving only a few seeds with low cultivation. Without the efforts of the Immortal Emperors and Quasi-Immortal Emperors above the heavens to cultivate them, it is unknown how long it would take for them to multiply and develop. By the end of the era, the number and quality of the strong individuals that could be born would be far inferior to those who had been cultivated by the Immortal Emperors and Quasi-Immortal Emperors.

Therefore, the powerful members of the mysterious dark race would naturally not target Immortal Emperors or Quasi-Immortal Emperors who had returned after being defeated and fleeing.

Li Daoming estimated that the Quasi-Immortal Emperors and Immortal Emperors above the heavens were well aware of this, which is why they dared to return after the strange dark race retreated, unafraid of being surrounded and killed by the strange dark race again.

As for why the Quasi-Immortal Emperors and Immortal Emperors above the heavens, knowing that this was a scheme by a strange and dark race, would still comply? Why didn't they hide and develop in secret?
Because this was a calculated scheme by a sinister and dark race, they had no choice.

If they choose to develop in seclusion, they certainly won't be able to occupy a large territory. At most, they can open up a few great worlds in the chaos beyond the heavens, create some secret realms in the depths of spacetime above the heavens, set up magic arrays to conceal and block the secrets of heaven, and secretly cultivate more powerful people and work hard to cultivate.
