NOVPUBChapter 1024: Chapter 124 Attacking the Divine Land from the Other Shore Chapter 1024: Chapter 124 Attacking the Divine Land from the Other Shore The Heavenly Emperor felt melancholic.
Although he called himself a failure, he was not willing to give up. With his strength, as soon as he could leave this universe, he would immediately achieve the realm of the Sovereign!
“Since the Divine Emperor has already become the dominant force of this era, he must also be clear about the existence of gods. The god did not die; his power merged into this universe. Some people think he is a failure, but he did more than I did, succeeding halfway.”
The Heavenly Emperor said.
“In another way, he intends to take control of the reincarnation of the universe, becoming the Sovereign of the heavens.”
Chu Yuan and the Heavenly Emperor both knew this.
“True, sadly, I never had the chance to confront the god. Each era can only have one strongest, just as the Divine Emperor is in front of me, yet I cannot fight the Heavenly Emperor. This era no longer belongs to me.”
It was the Heavenly Emperor’s regret that he could not fight the Divine Emperor.
He and Chu Yuan were sitting opposite each other in the Imperial Palace, both engaging in conversation, exchanging experiences and knowledge. They were profoundly enlightened, lamenting that if times were different, they would have been each other’s greatest opponents.
“The Divine Emperor.”
Suddenly, a few more people arrived at the Imperial Palace, all of them shaking the universe and ruling an era. Now, they came only to meet Chu Yuan.
“The Sovereign of this era is indeed extraordinary.”
An elder spoke, dressed very neatly and appearing ordinary, yet his was the power of the great Dao simplified.
“The Lord of All Laws.”
Chu Yuan looked at the elder, then turned to a young man in white, like a gorgeous young noble from the secular world, “If I’m not mistaken, you are the Demon Lord, the creator of the ancient demon forbidden land.”
“I am indeed the Demon Lord.”
The Demon Lord smiled, “Let me introduce, this is the Sword Master, and this is Lord Ouyang. We cannot visit the Divine Capital, so we can only meet here in the Imperial Palace and discuss with the Divine Emperor.”
The suppression they suffered was too strong; they could barely move in the Reincarnation Realm.
The arrival of Chu Yuan brought them here too.
“Please, take a seat.”
The Heavenly Emperor said.
They were all trapped in this universe, unable to freely wield their power, hence there was no fighting spirit. Their relations were quite good on ordinary days.
They empathized with each other’s plight and had no conflicts of interest.
“I really envy the Divine Emperor, who can still use his power.”
Lord Ouyang said, “Sadly, it only lasts for nine cycles of universe reincarnation, and no one has been able to break this curse.”
“In extremely ancient times, the universe was not so oppressive. Supreme beings could leave, but it was the change in the Heavenly Dao of the universe. The last to leave was the Demon Lord. I came after the Demon Lord, missing by just a little, trapped here.”
The Lord of All Laws was very ancient, older than anyone present.
He said, “The later it gets, the harder it is. The current suppression is already at a peak, which goes without me saying, the Divine Emperor can also feel it. The god is truly mighty, intending to transform into the universe, a different kind of control. However, once the god’s plan succeeds, it means our doom.”
Speaking of strength, they all hoped someone could break the cycle, but for their own sake, they wished no one could break it.
“It’s all doom, there’s no difference,” Lord Ouyang said.
“There are countless paths to cultivation, but the ultimate goal is only one, invincibility.”
Chu Yuan spoke calmly. This time, several ancient beings had come, and through their conversations, he had learned many secrets of the universe not recorded in the annals of history.
“Indeed, invincibility!”
The eyes of the Heavenly Emperor burst forth with golden flames.
“Who knew the Divine Emperor would do this? With the Divine Emperor’s ambition, he wouldn’t just accept his fate.”
Although Chu Yuan was sitting calmly with them, everyone knew he was a ruthless leader.
“You already know, don’t you?” Chu Yuan said, “But I won’t choose the same path as the Divine, my pursuit is for even greater invincibility. The Divine Path isn’t suitable for me, and I have also foreseen that the Divine will be my opponent.”
“If the Heavenly Emperor chooses to do that, the Divine really will be the greatest opponent.”
Everyone was intelligent, and some things didn’t need to be explicitly stated.
“If the Divine Emperor chooses to force open the skies and break the Reincarnation Realm, we might even have the opportunity to leave the universe in that split thousandth of a moment!”
They all longed to leave this universe and pursue even stronger powers, the many cycles of helplessness had nearly crushed their ambitions.
“But it’s difficult, more difficult than the Divine’s Path. If it weren’t for the Divine’s schemes, it might have been easier, but his actions only make the paths of others more arduous, even waiting for this opportunity himself!”
The Sovereign of all laws saw through everything.
Their eyes flickered—if Chu Yuan managed to force open the skies and succeeded, they too might have the chance to leave.
But the path chosen by the Divine left no paths for others, blocking their way of leaving.
In that case, they might choose to help the martial Divine Emperor.
“No matter how difficult, I must go forth, for I have no other choice.”
Chu Yuan’s meeting with them was an exchange of thoughts.
“Indeed, we have no choice, the Divine has blocked all other paths.”
The Demon Lord said, “There is another with boundless ambition, that is the Divine Boat Beyond. Although none of us have ever met its master, we all know his power is immense, terrifyingly so. Seated on the Divine Boat, he disregards the great calamities of the universe.”
“The Divine Boat Beyond, that is a hidden danger, and I will not leave this threat behind at the last moment.”
Chu Yuan said, “The Divine Boat Beyond has existed for so many years, doing so many outrageous acts, and indeed, the time has come for it to be settled and to disappear.”
“The Divine Emperor intends to deal with the Divine Boat Beyond!”
Lord Ouyang said, “If the Divine Emperor asks us where the Divine Boat Beyond is, we also wouldn’t know, if we did, we would have dealt with them in our time.”
“I also want to settle them, but I searched through nine universal cycles and still couldn’t find their trace.”
The Heavenly Emperor shook his head.
“They can hide from anyone, but they cannot hide from me.”
Chu Yuan spoke slowly, “It was pleasant talking with you all, and I have learned much more. I have only one thing to say to you all, only by cooperating with me do you have a chance to leave the universe.”
His words were light, as if he already knew the whereabouts of the Divine Boat Beyond, and settling them was a trivial and easy matter.
He left the Reincarnation Realm, leaving only the Heavenly Emperor and the others.
“Is the martial Divine Emperor warning us? Not to cause trouble at the critical moment and to cooperate with him in the end?”
Lord Ouyang said.
“Probably,” the Sovereign of all laws said, “He puts a lot of pressure on me, his power is indeed very strong. But his words also offer us hope and opportunity. However, I can’t understand how he’s planning to settle the Divine Boat Beyond.”
“Did you forget? During his grand battle when he was transforming, the Divine Boat Beyond was supposed to join the battle but mysteriously disappeared.”
The Demon Lord suddenly reminded.
“It is indeed very strange, not exploiting the chaos for gain.”
The Heavenly Emperor nodded, his eyes sparking, and suddenly said, “Wait, could it be that the disappearance of the Divine Boat Beyond wasn’t accidental? Was it the martial Divine Emperor’s doing, preventing them from joining the battle, as he already knew their whereabouts!”
