Chapter 1162: 953 Chapter Another 200 Years_2 Chapter 1162: 953 Chapter Another 200 Years_2 “Boom—”
Just at that moment, a tremor passed through the entire space as waves of vast and pure energy quickly infiltrated from the High Level Layered Heaven to the thirty-sixth Layered Heaven. The thirty-sixth Layered Heaven itself also began to manifest a massive amount of pure yin energy, and the entire space started to undergo rapid changes.
“Could it be… that the New Layered Heaven has been broken through?”
“The forty-first Layered Heaven has been broken through as well? Who did it? Could it be the Tri-Eyed Emperor?”
Emperor Wu and Emperor Proud looked up toward the direction of the higher heavens, both of them shocked.
They subconsciously thought of the Tri-Eyed Emperor, because the Blood Emperor had previously broken through too many new heavens; the difficulty of breaking another New Layered Heaven had increased significantly. It really might not be so quick for someone to possess the strength to break through another New Layered Heaven again.
Moreover, their own strength and status had not been far from that of the Tri-Eyed Emperor before. During this period, they had heard that the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s power had grown massively. They were filled with envy and were constantly worried that the Tri-Eyed Emperor might possess the strength to break through the New Layered Heaven. Once broken, the gap between their strengths would widen significantly, and by then, catching up with the other would be exceedingly difficult.
Hence, upon witnessing the possible breaking of the forty-first Layered Heaven, their thoughts instinctively turned to whether it was the work of the Tri-Eyed Emperor.
“The forty-first Layered Heaven has been broken through?”
“A vast pure yin energy has been born into the world, hurry and cultivate!”
The Ghost Practitioners practicing in other parts of the thirty-sixth Layered Heaven were also shaken, and soon, some of them spoke with excitement and thrill.
Compared to Emperor Wu and Emperor Proud, these Ghost Practitioners had much less ambition. Not to mention the formidable power of the Blood Emperor himself, but he had also gathered many Ghost Practitioners of strong talent and potential. In the recent past, they had witnessed the power and rapid progress of these Ghost Practitioners and had been greatly disheartened.
The Ghost Practitioners with the greatest hope of breaking through a new heaven were naturally the Blood Emperor and the strong Ghost Practitioners he had gathered.
They had long since given up on any hope of breaking through a New Layered Heaven themselves.
Now, they only hoped that the New Layered Heavens would be broken through sooner, one after another, and that the environment of the Netherworld would improve rapidly, allowing them to quickly enhance their power with this great trend.
Otherwise, just as before, billions of years could pass without a single New Layered Heaven being broken through in the Netherworld, and their power would hardly improve over a long span of time. Missing the prime time for cultivation, their accomplishments in this life would be limited.
Originally, the thirty-sixth Layered Heaven was the highest of the Netherworld, and they had not even been eligible to cultivate in the thirty-sixth Layered Heaven, often only being allowed to practice below the twenty-eighth Layered Heaven. Not only was there a great gap in the environment, but there was also a significant discrepancy in time flow. Now that they could practice in the thirty-sixth Layered Heaven, they were already quite content.
Of course, there were some Ghost Practitioners who were extremely envious of those left behind by the Blood Emperor. While they could only practice in the thirty-sixth Layered Heaven, those Ghost Practitioners could cultivate in the fortieth Layered Heaven, which was a huge difference.
“I must practice diligently, strive to enhance my strength, and with the help of this great trend… aspire to attain the power to break through a New Layered Heaven. When that time comes, I must show the Blood Emperor just how poor his judgment was, having overlooked me…”
“Once I reach the power to break through a New Layered Heaven, I will surely look down upon all beings…”
Some Ghost Practitioners vowed in secret.
Afterward, they no longer pondered but buried themselves in their cultivation.
With a New Layered Heaven broken through and an outpouring of vast pure energy emerging, it was a rare opportunity that they could not afford to miss.
Soon, Emperor Wu and Emperor Proud also immersed themselves in cultivation.
Six days later… the tide of pure energy that was born into the world slowly receded…
Some Ghost Practitioners subsequently ceased their practices.
Among these were Emperor Wu and Emperor Proud. Emperor Wu shook his head in regret and said, “The flow of time between the thirty-sixth and thirty-seventh Layered Heavens differs by tenfold. If we were able to cultivate in the thirty-seventh Layered Heaven, we could have had over sixty days in such a cultivation environment…”
“Indeed, we don’t need to be in the fortieth Layered Heaven, just being in the thirty-seventh Layered Heaven would suffice!” Emperor Proud also said with a frown.
Continuing this way, they would be increasingly surpassed by the strong Ghost Practitioners left behind by the Blood Emperor. By then, not only would the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s strength far exceed theirs, but their own strength might even fall behind other Ghost Practitioners.
With this thought, they felt even more dejected.
“Cultivating, always cultivating. I told you to collect heavenly treasures, why aren’t you putting in the effort? So many Ghost Practitioners have gathered those treasures, so why haven’t you collected any?”
“Hurry and go collect the heavenly treasures I spoke of. You have ten more years. If you haven’t collected them by then, be prepared to never ascend to Eternal Life!”
It was at this moment that they looked up and saw their subordinates who had come to deliver heavenly treasures. Before, when the New Layered Heaven had just been broken and great changes took place in the world, they were eager to utilize the trend for their cultivation and had thus paid no attention to their subordinates.
On the other hand, in the face of such a grand opportunity, driving away these subordinates didn’t seem appropriate either.
As they plunged into their cultivation, these subordinates naturally wouldn’t miss the opportunity and found a discreet spot nearby to begin their own practice.
But now, thinking that they could have had over sixty days to practice but ended up with just over six days, and seeing their subordinates, Emperor Wu and Emperor Proud became even more irritable and scolded fiercely.
“Boom!”
“Bang! Bang!”
In the midst of their speaking, they even unleashed their mighty Domain Power, oppressing their subordinates and causing them to suffer heavy injuries.
