Global Martial Arts: Slaughter to Become Emperor

Chapter 628 The Heavenly Star Returns, the Heavenly Tomb Opens!

Within the Eighth Heaven, Tianchen slowly emerged from the spatial rift before him.

He waved his hand, assessed his own strength, and found that he was indeed only at the seventh level of the Breaking Seven Realms, not yet back to his peak.

Tianchen turned his gaze to the group outside. The first person he saw was Lu Hao, who was holding the Azure Cat. Tianchen hadn't sensed Lu Hao's presence at all. If he hadn't seen Lu Hao with his own eyes and hadn't just spoken with him, he would have doubted whether there was anyone in front of him at all. This Lu Hao was indeed extraordinary, and his strength might even be stronger than Tianchen's at his peak. Although Tianchen hadn't recovered his full strength, his eyes were still there, and he couldn't see anything. This person was indeed powerful. He then glanced at Tiangou and Shipo. Tiangou was different from before, looking more majestic and domineering. It seemed that after reaching the eighth level of the Breaking Realm, he had the strength and confidence to improve. Shipo, on the other hand, was still the same as before, without much change.

"Grand Steward, you've finally recovered! My life in the past was too hard. Big Dog and you both disappeared, and I could only survive by scavenging for garbage. Luckily, I met Fierce when I recovered, otherwise I might have been taken away by those bad guys outside by now."

Cangmao said with a wronged expression.

Lu Hao couldn't help but twitch his lips. This cat had never suffered before meeting him, okay? It was always Gong Juanzi who suffered. Gong Juanzi had her entire Kuocang Mountain eaten up by this cat, and this cat was still not satisfied. "Alright, I'm born now, and no one will dare to bully you anymore."

Tianchen knew about Cangmao's situation. Nine out of ten of its words were lies, and only one was half true. "Dog, you've grown up now—" Tianchen reached out to pet the dog's head, but the dog dodged him. After all, he was the Heavenly Emperor, not the dog of the past.

"Thank you for protecting Cangmao, Fellow Daoist Lu," Tianchen said, looking at Lu Hao. "Fellow Daoist Tianchen, I have a good relationship with Cangmao, and Cangmao has helped me a lot. So no matter what happens in the future, I will definitely protect Cangmao."

Lu Hao said with a smile, after all, Cangmao was his supplier of divine artifacts. If it weren't for Cangmao, how difficult would it be for him to find a divine artifact? Besides, Cangmao was his pet. It was so cute that no one could deal with it.

"Hey cat feeder, you're alive! That guy who died with you back then, has he come back to life too?"

The Heavenly Dog asked, "After all, Tianchen had already reached the limit of the Eighth Realm, making him the strongest person in the Three Realms below the Emperor and the Supreme Heavenly Emperor. Even with such power, he still perished in a battle against a beginner martial artist. This gives you an idea of ​​how powerful that beginner martial artist was. What if that opponent also recovers—"

"Won't."

Tianchen said calmly, "Back then, I shattered his physical body, crushed his divine consciousness, and erased his life imprint. Moreover, as you all know, that person was a beginner martial artist, without the convenient means of resurrection like the Origin Dao. And if he had resurrected, I would have been able to sense it. Now, I feel nothing at all; he is completely dead."

Shi Po, standing nearby, interjected, "Senior, if I may be so bold, it is said that you also perished completely back then. In that battle, all nine emperors were watching, and they were certain that you had truly fallen. Why have you been resurrected now, Senior?"

These people are different from Tianchen. Most of them were actually caught in the crossfire and died in battle back then. No one would check whether they were completely dead. Most of those who revived in the First Heaven were able to revive because their original world was still intact and not broken. That meant that their life imprint was still there.

As for him and the Heavenly Dog, they didn't die at all. They were in a state of suspended animation due to exhaustion of energy, and a trace of their consciousness was preserved deep within their golden bodies. But this one was different. He was truly and completely dead in the battle with that leader of the initial martial arts.

This was something that all nine emperors unanimously agreed upon.

"Perhaps someone didn't want me to die easily. Back then, someone must have preserved a trace of my life. In my final moments, I felt a trace of my origin being drawn to me. If I'm not mistaken, that's how I survived and was able to revive until now. Otherwise, I would have truly perished long ago."

Tianchen spoke slowly. After all, he had begun to recover in recent years and gradually regained some consciousness. He was thinking about the past and for a long time, wondering who had saved him at the last moment. After all, his relationship with the Ninth Emperor could only be described as having had some conversations.

"Made by the Nine Emperors?"

"I don't know————"

The Heavenly Dog snorted, "It might have been the Spirit Emperor who did it! He was afraid that if you really died, the fat cat would have no one to feed it, so he kept you to protect this stupid cat from now on."

"You're the stupid one, big dog. I'm the smartest cat."

Cangmao retorted angrily, but his angry expression only made him look cuter given his chubby face.

"Stupid cat, you're still a stupid cat. After all these years, you're still just an Emperor. If you had improved even a little bit, you wouldn't be like this now. With strength, you could eat whatever you want."

Tengu was speechless. He thought that Cangmao must have improved a bit over the years, but he didn't expect that the cat would just go to sleep and not improve at all.

"Increase your strength? What's the use of increasing your strength? Big Dog, you can't beat Fierce yet, so increasing your strength is useless. This cat already has Fierce..."

That's enough.

Cangmao said with a proud look, "As for it being shameful to suck up to someone's leg?"

What's shameful about that! This is a path to heaven, an opportunity that ordinary people can't even dream of. "The Spirit Emperor? That's possible. After all, the Spirit Emperor's favorite is Cangmao, and he's been the one to deal with Cangmao's troubles on many occasions."

Tianchen pondered, "After all, it's understandable that the Spirit Emperor would step in to save Cangmao's life for his future safety."

Meanwhile, Shi Po, looking infatuated, said, "That's right, Pang Ling is kind-hearted, he must have protected you."

"Neuropathy----"

Seeing Shi Po's infatuated expression, Tian Gou was furious. Back then, the two of them had been beaten by the Spirit Emperor quite a bit, and he had almost had his legs broken. This guy was only getting more excited. Wasn't he just plain crazy?

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Tiangou, now that Fellow Daoist Tianchen has come out, you lead the way. We'll go to the Heavenly Tomb. We'll move around outside the Heavenly Tomb first, and after you've recovered your combat strength, we'll explore inside and see if the people inside are still there. Then we'll discuss our strategy."

Lu Hao said that he was also very interested in the Heavenly Tomb, especially the beginner martial artists inside, and whether killing them would yield kill points.

Well, after all, he obtained his killing points by devouring the primordial stars of the Three Realms. Although beginner martial artists do not have primordial stars, they have already reached the eighth level, and their power cannot be ignored. As long as he gathers the missing 20 million killing points, he can begin to transform. Moreover, killing beginner martial artists will not cause any strange phenomena. After all, beginner martial artists are not tolerated by heaven and earth, so there would be no strange phenomena of their fall. As for the combined strength of the five beginner martial artists in the Heavenly Tomb, Lu Hao is not afraid at all. If he were not afraid that the current commotion would attract the attention of the Heavenly Emperor, he would have killed several Heavenly Kings to gather enough killing points long ago.
