Chapter 1603: Grave of Lifeless Eternal Demon Emperor

Wu Yu immediately turned to it. He saw that it was Celestial

Demonic Emperor, in his true form as the Celestial Meteor. A
huge comet was streaking through the mists, purple light
trailing behind it. Clearly, he too had also discovered the
presence of the Grave of Lifeless Eternal Demon Emperor.
He and Wu Yu’s clone had spotted each other at the same time.
"You-!"
Celestial Meteor shouted. His first instinct was to attack, but he
soon realized that this was not the only Wu Yu. There were
many more identical Wu Yus all around him!
He then knew that these were but clones.
But even if they were clones, he did not intend to let them go.
The shining violet starlight streaked past them, sending purple
sword qi that cut Wu Yu’s clones to bits.
Soon enough, he was standing before Wu Yu’s recuperating
true form. He knew that Wu Yu was injured.
"Hahaha, to think you’re actually hurt here. Die!" Celestial
Meteor was in a good mood indeed. He immediately unleashed
his Starry Sword Hell heavenly rule that filled the air.
Wu Yu could not possibly take him on right now, and Starry
Sword Hell heavenly rule was one of Celestial Meteor’s
stronger moves. Even in a whole state, Wu Yu might be hurt by
this heavenly rule power, let alone after he was limping from
the Maelstrom Silver Dagger Sphere, and his defenses heavily
discounted.
Therefore, he used the Somersault Cloud to flee from the purple
sword qi, vanishing from sight.
As Wu Yu left, the Starry Sword Hell heavenly rule
automatically turned to the Maelstrom Silver Dagger Sphere
epochal immortal design. Before Celestial Demonic Emperor
could control it, the sword qi had rushed into the epochal
immortal design, triggering a storm of silver daggers.
The silver daggers surrounded Celestial Meteor, and attacked
him furiously. Celestial Meteor was immediately cut up badly
as well.
Clearly, not even a 9-heavens demon king like Celestial Meteor
could withstand the epochal immortal design’s silver daggers
or get near to the Grave of Lifeless Eternal Demon Emperor.
He immediately fled from the knives, and vanished into the
thick mists again.
Wu Yu could not catch him even if he tried. He could only give
up the chase, instead remaining to study the Grave of Lifeless
Eternal Demon Emperor’s epochal immortal design.
Wu Yu was currently wondering: Why would the Lifeless
Eternal Demon Emperor use an epochal immortal design to
protect himself?
Could it be that the Jade Emperor himself had set this epochal
immortal design?
After all, the Jade Emperor had created this epochal immortal
design for the 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King as well,
except that this one was way more savage.
If this epochal immortal design was really set by the Jade
Emperor, then what was the relationship between the Jade
Emperor and the Eternal Emperor Tomb?
Wu Yu could not guess the answer. Just like the Eternal
Emperor Tomb itself, the situation was hazy, and he was just
fumbling around in the dark.
He could only continue to study the grave. He had also made
two more unsuccessful attempts to break past the epochal
immortal design. The defense of the Maelstrom Silver Dagger
Sphere was one that he could not overcome for now.
After a month, he made his third attempt to enter. But at this
time, the entire Grave of Lifeless Eternal Demon Emperor and
the Maelstrom Silver Dagger Sphere had altogether vanished!
Wu Yu was completely nonplussed.
How could the entire damn grave have gone missing?
Could it have all been a mirage? Or perhaps, were the graves in
the Eternal Emperor Tomb constantly changing locations?
The mirage theory could not explain the epochal immortal
design well. If the graves were constantly moving, then it
would be much harder to crack them than he had imagined.
Wu Yu did not leave immediately, mapping out the possibilities
for now.
But at this time, he was surprised that Celestial Meteor had
returned. He had not only returned, but brought Dignified Lava
Beast with him. The two 9-heavens demon kings had come
together!
Celestial Demonic Emperor and Dignified Demonic Emperor
had both completely recovered from their wounds previously.
Wu Yu was definitely not their match.
Seeing that the Grave of Lifeless Eternal Demon Emperor had
vanished, both immediately turned suspicious eyes on Wu Yu.
Celestial Meteor raged: "Damn it! We were too late. The grave
is gone! The kid must have broken in and taken away the
eternal demon emperor corpse!"
As for the Dignified Lava Beast, he naturally would believe
Celestial Meteor’s words. Since Wu Yu was still sticking
around, then he had probably only just taken the eternal demon
emperor corpse.
Therefore, the two demonic emperors surrounded him.
They knew that Wu Yu could flee well, and they might not be
able to hold him. But for the eternal demon emperor grave, they
could not let him go. They would do their best to kill him.
Starry Sword Hell heavenly rule came at him again. Jets of
purple sword qi came whistling towards Wu Yu from the mists!
As for Dignified Lava Beast, he howled and called upon
Casting Heavenly Rule. A pillar of fire descended from the
skies on Wu Yu.
Against their powerful attacks, Wu Yu could not take it head
on. His only option was to flee. But he did not use the
Somersault Cloud to flee yet. Instead, he used Lawful
Embodiment of Heaven and Earth to shrink himself down, and
then dodged them with his enhanced speed.
Just as Wu Yu was about to leave, Dignified Lava Beast
suddenly shouted: "Punk, you dare to leave? If you leave, your
mystical dragon companion will die. Olden Demonic Emperor,
Perpetual Demonic Emperor, and Unending Demonic Emperor
have already captured him, and we’re waiting for you to join
him!"
Wu Yu frowned upon hearing this. He did not know if it were
true.
Celestial Demonic Emperor sniggered. "Go on then. Leave. See
how badly your mystical dragon friend gets tortured. Can you
bear to see him die because of you?"
The two applied considerable pressure on Wu Yu.
If what they said was true, then Wu Jun was in trouble indeed,
and required his help. If not, Wu Jun might well be tortured to
death.
In any case, he had not seen Wu Jun for a long time now, and
their words were plausible.

Wu Yu could not take the risk. He had to give them the benefit
of the doubt. In any case, they could not do anything to him as
long as he kept his distance. One flip with the Somersault Cloud
and he would be out.
"If what they said is real, then the scene of Wu Jun dying must
have been fake!"
This was good news for Wu Yu indeed. He still clearly felt
trauma from that memory.
If Wu Jun was not dead, then all was well.
Therefore, Wu Yu replied tersely: "Lead the way then. You
want the bronze pendants right?"
"Of course. But some time has passed, and we can’t be sure that
we can find them." Dignified Lava Beast said.
"We can only give you a rough direction."
Celestial Meteor said, pointing.
In that case, Wu Yu had no further need of the two. He left in a
flash. His clones could scout much better than their bumbling
guidance.
To think he had believed for a moment that they could show
him the way.
However, Wu Yu knew that he had to be quick. Each moment
he delayed could endanger Wu Jun’s life.
He immediately turned his 1 million doppelgangers loose,
scattering in all directions. He himself left on the Somersault
Cloud in the direction that the Celestial Meteor had indicated.
Both of the demonic emperors were taken aback at Wu Yu’s
audacity.
After a beat, Celestial Meteor laughed. "No matter. Even
without us two, they can’t do anything against those three
either. By the time we arrive, the key will certainly be in our
hands."
Dignified Lava Beast dipped his ponderous head in agreement,
and followed Celestial Meteor into the mists.
A few days later.
Wu Yu had searched as hard as he could for the location of the
other three demon kings, and one of his clones finally hit upon
it three days later.
Wu Jun was indeed captured by the other three. The coarse
branches of the Perpetual World Tree had completely bound
Wu Jun. Half of his Primordial Immortal Dragon body was also
sheathed in a golden metal, the other half frozen solid by the
Unending Crepuscular Sea. He looked to be in completely
agony.
Wu Yu’s clone immediately drew the attention of all three
demonic emperors.
All three turned to him, and demanded: "We can finally
negotiate properly! Hand over your bronze pendant, or the
mystical dragon dies!"
The three demonic emperors had teamed up to trap Wu Jun.
The situation looked hopeless, but Wu Yu could not allow Wu
Jun to be hurt!
Therefore, this was a negotiation that he had to see through. He
could well give up the pendant, but Wu Jun could not die.
Therefore, Wu Yu began negotiations immediately, calming
them down. His real body sped over to the location.
Chapter 1604: Pendant Swop
Wu Yu’s clone faced the three demonic emperors for now.
"Did you hear us? Hand over the bronze pendants, or your
mystical dragon friend gets it. And before that, we’ll torture
him until he’s begging for death as a mercy! Don’t doubt that
we can do it!" Olden Demonic Emperor threatened, gleaming
with a metallic luster. He was a striking sight amidst the mists.
At the same time, Wu Yu’s clone noticed that the metal
covering half of Wu Jun’s body was moving. The metal seemed
to be dissolving the Primordial Immortal Dragon’s body!
The pain must be indescribable. Olden Demonic Emperor
could control metals, and this sort of torture technique was like
dunking someone into molten metal. The pain was more than
even a 9-heavens immortal king could bear, and Wu Jun let out
an anguished cry.
Wu Yu could bear it no more. "Stop it!"
His clone shouted. But it was just a clone. It could not help Wu
Jun, and could only watch the torture with pained eyes.
Unending Crepuscular Sea laughed: "Watch carefully now.
This is your mystical dragon companion. If you want him to
live, hand over the bronze pendants. We won’t say it again!"
The icy water that covered half of Wu Jun’s body continued to
batter at him, the cold seeping into his bones. They froze him
down to the marrow, a chill so deep that Wu Jun himself
seemed to swoon.
Wu Jun was also held by the Perpetual World Tree’s branches,
and completely immobilized.
He was completely at their mercy, and escape by himself was
out of the question.
Seeing Wu Jun tortured thus before him, Wu Yu’s rage poured
out from his eyes, and his clone immediately demanded: "Stop
immediately, or you will not see the bronze pendants!"
This shout indeed gave them pause. The torture was halted,
although they still held him captive.
Perpetual Demonic Emperor said severely: "The bronze
pendants. Now. Hand over the bronze pendants, and we let him
go. A mutually beneficial situation!"
"This is just my clone. When my real body reaches, I’ll make
the trade."
Wu Yu’s clone had already calmed the situation down,
stopping the torture.
However, the trade still required more negotiations.
"I have two bronze pendants with me. How can I be sure you
will let him go if I give you both at once? I can’t trust you." Wu
Yu knew that they would not let him go first either. After all,
they knew about his ability to flee. They could not let him go
just like that.
Therefore, he had to hand over the bronze pendants first.
But if they decided to go back on their word, there was nothing
that Wu Yu could do either. They had to work this out.
"And what do you propose?"
Unending Demonic Emperor countered sharply, his frosty aura
snaking forth.
"I will give you one bronze pendant, and you release him. And
then I will give you the other. Do you accept?" Wu Yu’s clone
asked.
This was the only possible way. Neither would accept anything
else.
The three demonic emperors conferred briefly, and then
nodded. "Get your real body over quickly then. But we will
only trust you this once. If you are cheating us again, we will
give you no such chance the next time."
They too knew that it was unrealistic to demand both bronze
pendants from Wu Yu at the same time. They could only
reinforce things with this threat.
After all, if they were all to continue moving in Eternal
Emperor Tomb, who was to say that such a situation would not
occur again?
And if Wu Yu pulled a fast one and ran with Wu Jun and one
pendant, he had to consider the consequences if Wu Jun ever
fell into their hands again.
Of course, Wu Yu would not easily part from Wu Jun again
after this hard-won reunion. He had to be on guard at all times.
It was too dangerous for Wu Jun to be left alone.
"Deal."
Wu Yu’s clone agreed. His real body hurried over as quickly as
he could.
Three days later, his real body finally arrived. Seeing Wu Jun’s
gorily tortured figure with his own eyes caused a burning anger
to flare within his chest.
He could only quell it for now, vowing to himself that when the
opportunity came to kill them all, he would show no mercy.
"I’m here now. Which of you will take the bronze pendant?
Only one of you can come!"
Wu Yu called out from a distance away, trying to instigate
some strife.
This was a risky exchange. Neither side trusted the other. All
of them wanted the pendant. Although Wu Jun was the priority
for Wu Yu here, but if he could avoid handing over the bronze
pendants, he definitely would not.
The three had already discussed this. The first pendant would
be received by Olden Golden Mountain.
Both sides were playing this cautiously in the thick mists.
In the atmosphere of distrust, each step had to be taken
carefully, or they might well be deceived by the other.
Olden Golden Mountain’s towering, shimmering frame came
to stand before Wu Yu swiftly, and demanded in his ringing
voice: "And now, the pendant."
Wu Yu carefully took out one of the pendants.
He was watching Olden Golden Mountain like a hawk. If he
made any surprise move, Wu Yu would instantly flee. Even if
Wu Jun was still here, but there was still room to bargain as
long as he was alive. If both of them were trapped, then the
game was over.
Fortunately, Olden Golden Mountain had no intention of
attacking him for now. He took the bronze pendant and moved
back.
Olden Golden Mountain looked pleased to have one bronze
pendant in hand. After confirming that Wu Yu had not pulled
off anything strange on him, it was Unending Crepuscular
Sea’s turn to receive a pendant.
Very quickly, the Unending Crepuscular Sea’s icy aura had
breezed its way forth to Wu Yu.
"You’re a wise one. But I hope your wisdom continues. Hand
over the second bronze pendant." Unending Demonic Emperor
demanded in an icy tone.
"First you have to free my friend."
Wu Yu said unhurriedly, keeping a vigilant eye on Unending
Demonic Emperor. He added calmly: "One bronze pendant is
useless. You need two in order to open the eternal demon
emperor graves. All you have to do is free my friend, and the
chance to open the graves will be yours."

This was a complete lie, but they would not know. After all,
they thought that Wu Yu had already opened an eternal demon
emperor grave before, and therefore their heartbeats quickened.
All three were getting fidgety now. They had also heard that
Celestial Meteor had found an eternal demon emperor grave
recently, although he had been unable to open it. Could it be
that this immortal kid had already opened it?
They could not help but wonder. If they could open the eternal
demon emperor graves, they stood a great chance of rising to
the eternal demon immortality realm!
This would be a monumental breakthrough, and was an
irresistible temptation for them.
But they did not know that Wu Yu was lying to them.
This innocuous lie from Wu Yu shook their concentration
enough.
Initially, they had been reluctant to release Wu Jun before
obtaining the second pendant.
But these words from Wu Yu made Perpetual World Tree think
of f
After all, the Primordial Immortal Dragon was on its last legs
now. Even if they let him go, he could not get away quickly.
As long as they watched the Primordial Immortal Dragon
carefully, Wu Yu would definitely be forced to hand over the
second bronze pendant!
Therefore, they released Wu Jun.
Wu Jun, who had looked limp and lifeless on the ground,
suddenly burst with heavenly rule power as the vines released
him. He sped towards Wu Yu’s location!
This put a real scare into the three demonic emperors.
By the time they reacted, Wu Jun had already reached Wu Yu.
The decision was clear now. Wu Yu would not hand over the
second bronze pendant, even with the standing threat.
He quickly stashed the second bronze pendant, and then took
Wu Jun onto his Somersault Cloud. He flipped away!
Unending Crepuscular Sea had started forward, but was held
back by Wu Yu’s clones. Doppelganger heavenly rule flooded
the skies, and pushed Unending Crepuscular Sea back with
frightening strength.
Unending Demonic Emperor was forced back. By the time he
had overcome it, Wu Yu was long gone. He roared: "Scum, the
next time we meet I will smash you to pieces! There will be no
mercy!"
They had intended to walk away from this exchange with two
pendants, but now they only had one.
Although the truth might not be like Wu Yu had lied about -
where both had to be together for it to work - but it was
nevertheless an unsatisfactory outcome.
The three demonic emperors swore to each other that they
would not easily trust Wu Yu again the next time they caught
Wu Jun.
As for Wu Yu, he had led Wu Jun deep into the mists, to a
relatively safe place, and had begun to help him heal.
Wu Jun had expended enormous energy to flee to Wu Yu’s
side. His internal pathways were damaged, and he had to
properly rest.
"Wu Yu, I’m so sorry. I was caught by accident, and made you
lose a bronze pendant." Wu Jun was remorseful, even while he
hurt from the demonic emperors’ torture.
"Think nothing of it. You came here with me, and I cannot
possibly let you come to harm. Or I would be troubled! It’s just
one pendant. I still have one with me. We can just snatch it
back!" Wu Yu laughed, not too worried.
Seeing Wu Yu’s attitude, Wu Jun was reassured. He thought to
himself that he had seen Wu Yu right after all.
Chapter 1605: Demonic Emperors' Derby
Wu Yu had lost one bronze pendant this time, but had rescued
Wu Jun. Even if he was severely injured, it was nothing
permanent that time would not heal.
Of course, quite a bit of time would be needed. Especially
within Eternal Emperor Tomb, many things could happen in a
few years.
"The demonic emperors can’t make any inroads for now. Let’s
take the time to rest up." Wu Yu said. He called back his 1
million doppelgangers, only leaving a few outside to watch the
perimeter.
Once there was any danger, Wu Yu would be alerted
immediately.
Therefore, Wu Jun began to recuperate. He would not be able
to move much in the next few years.
Wu Yu guarded him as he conversed with those inside the
Floating Dreams Pagoda. They made speculations regarding
the Eternal Emperor Tomb.
Full Moon of Nanshan’s imagination was the most lively. He
was knowledgeable in illusory arts, and came alive in the mists
of the Eternal Emperor Tomb. He even managed to glean some
dao insights here, which helped him to refine his cultivation.
Full Moon of Nanshan believed that there might well be
nothing in Eternal Emperor Tomb besides the corpses of the
eternal demon emperors. This was already considered a huge
treasure for Wu Yu and the others.
Any immortal who was already at the immortal emperor realm
would find nothing useful here.
"It’s still unclear who made the Eternal Emperor Tomb. The
builder must have something to do with the annihilation of the
Demon Immortal Realm!" Full Moon of Nanshan asserted.
Ye Xixi mused: "It wouldn’t be the Jade Emperor, would it?
That Maelstrom Silver Dagger Sphere before was exactly the
same as in hell."
"We can’t confirm that it’s the Jade Emperor. After all, these
eternal immortal emperors would definitely dabble a little in
epochal immortal designs. But if the Jade Emperor has a hand
in this, if he actually turns out to be the mastermind behind the
genocide of eternal demon emperors, then the secrets here are
terrifying indeed." Wu Yu said, feeling a prickle run down his
spine.
The prospect of the Jade Emperor descending to personally end
the Demon Immortal Realm was a terrifying one. Why would
he do such a thing?
Of course, it was too early to point fingers at him. Except, the
number of people in the sky palaces or hells who could wipe
out all the immortals of Demon Immortal Realm were limited.
Or perhaps it was an internal conflict within Demon Immortal
Realm?
In that case, then how could it be that not even a single eternal
demon emperor was left......
Layers and layers of mysteries floated around in Wu Yu’s head.
He had no idea what the truth was.
All he could say for sure was that the Eternal Emperor Tomb
must be an important clue. If he could probe into the secret of
the Eternal Emperor Tomb, he might be able to find out the
truth.
Wu Jun continued to tend to his injuries, and Wu Yu
occasionally helped to speed it up.
10 years passed.
In this time, Wu Yu had not seen anybody come near their
location. He had found a well-concealed place.
"I’m fully recovered, finally. Wu Yu, let’s head out. Sorry to
have been a burden." Wu Jun felt bad. He knew that time was
of the essence here, but he had wasted 10 years of Wu Yu’s
time recuperating. The demonic emperors might already have
accomplished something.
"Uncle Wu, please think nothing of it." Wu Yu did not know
whether to laugh or cry, that Wu Jun himself was being so
courteous. It made Wu Yu a little embarrassed.
Wu Yu sent out his 1 million doppelgangers again, to search
teh area. He wanted to look for traces of the demonic emperors.
He had thought that they must have run far away in this period
of time. He fully expected to take a while to hunt them down.
But to his surprise, his clone found something after a mere
dozen days.
"Follow me!"
Wu Yu hurriedly headed for the clone’s location, at the same
time making it hide itself to observe.
Because the disturbance was so huge, Wu Yu’s clone did not
dare to go further ahead to see what was happening.
As Wu Yu and Wu Jun arrived, the two saw that all five
demonic emperors were gathered. Shockingly, there were 10
demonic emperor figures!
There were two each of Olden Demonic Emperor, Unending
Demonic Emperor, Perpetual Demonic Emperor, Celestial
Demonic Emperor, and Dignified Demonic Emperor!
A total of 10 demonic emperor figures. No wonder the
disturbance had been so huge.
"Must be one fake and one real?" Wu Jun immediately guessed.
"Indeed." Wu Yu nodded.
He used his Eyes of Fire and Gold to immediately tell which
were the five fakes. They appeared as nothing more than mist
before him.
The 10 demonic emperors created a huge din. No one could tell
who was real or fake. Each person only trusted themselves.
This chaos could well be advantageous for Wu Yu.
For now, all he wanted was his bronze pendant back. He did
not know who had it, but the disorder would create
opportunities for Wu Yu.
The thick mists held many secrets, and Wu Yu had no idea how
to access them for now. But he was sure that the two bronze
pendants would make themselves useful, and so he could not
afford to miss a chance to win them back.
"Let’s see what’s going on first." Wu Yu said to Wu Jun. He
pointed out the five fake demonic emperors, and then settled
back to watch.
Of course, he would not tell them which was real and which
was fake. Besides, they might not believe him either.
In the chaos, the five fake demonic emperors continued to sow
suspicions and fan the flames of violence.

"I, Unending Crepuscular Sea, am the real one! That "Unending

Demonic Emperor" over there, do you know about the shared
secret with Dignified Demonic Emperor? If you can’t say it out,
you’re a fake!"
Wu Yu could tell that it was the fake Unending Crepuscular
Sea accusing the real Unending Crepuscular Sea. His
declaration of a secret made the real Dignified Lava Beast start
to second guess himself.
He indeed had a secret with Dignified Demonic Emperor. They
had once found an eternal demon emperor corpse in a void
chasm in Demon Immortal Realm before. But when they went
back to take it, the void chasm had completely crumbled, and
the eternal demon emperor corpse lost.
He had never spoken about this secret before. Now that
Unending Crepuscular Sea had said this, it seemed like he was
definitely the real one.
The real Dignified Demonic Emperor immediately believed the
fake Unending Crepuscular Sea, and turned to the real one. "So
evidently you’re the fake. Die!"
It was hard enough to tell real from fake without the five fakes
blowing smoke everywhere. The trust between the five real
demonic emperors was already completely eroded, and they
started to doubt each other and turn to blows.
Dignified Demonic Emperor attacked Unending Crepuscular
Sea, while on the other side, the egging by the fakes had started
a fight with Celestial Meteor and Perpetual World Tree teaming
up against Olden Golden Mountain.
The fake Celestial Meteor and Perpetual World Tree were also
fighting Olden Golden Mountain.
Suddenly, all were fighting. Unending Crepuscular Sea and
Olden Golden Mountain were being targeted by all the other
demonic emperors, real and fake.
The two demonic emperors cried out: "We are the real ones!
Otherwise, why would the fakes come and attack us too?"
But their cries fell on deaf ears. The successful confusion from
before had already ruined their reputation.
Eight against two saw Olden Demonic Emperor and Unending
Demonic Emperor fall, heavily wounded, in short order.
But even so, the other three real demonic emperors were not in
a good state either. All five were in trouble now.
Wu Yu and Wu Jun continued to watch from the cover of the
mists.
Before too long, Unending Crepuscular Sea was again dealt a
punishing blow. In order to save his life, he had to escape, and
he vanished into the mists.
At this time, the other four real demonic emperors were not in
good shape, especially Olden Golden Mountain. He was only
slightly better off than Unending Crepuscular Sea.
Therefore, they agreed that there was no meaning in fighting
further, or risk killing each other off.
And yet, they still treasured the bronze pendant, and so they
were not willing to part just like that.
They had each applied their own seals on the bronze pendant.
Only with all five demonic emperors gathered could the seals
be lifted, and the bronze pendant used.
Therefore, they wanted to leave, but were unwilling to do so.
The five demonic emperors were in a dilemma now. The fake
demonic emperors had caused all sorts of trouble for them.
Neither did they have any way of identifying the real from fake.
They could only make guesses.
Now that Unending Crepuscular Sea had escaped, they had
calmed down and began planning.
Wu Yu was still trying to determine who held the bronze
pendant.
But before he found the answer, suddenly another Wu Yu and
Wu Jun appeared near them!
Chapter 1606: Prove Yourself!
Even Wu Yu himself jumped. To think that more fakes would
appear after the five fake demonic emperors.
Wu Yu had seen a fake Wu Jun before, but his Eyes of Fire and
Gold had sent that one packing.
And now another fake Wu Jun......
If Wu Yu did not have the Eyes of Fire and Gold, he would
indeed be doubting if the Wu Jun by his side was real.
Now the Wu Jun by his side also exclaimed at seeing the fake
Wu Yu and Wu Jun. "I almost doubted if you were real for a
moment, but I trust you."
This was pure faith. Wu Jun did not have the Eyes of Fire and
Gold to tell, but he had faith that the Wu Yu by his side was
real. They had spent an entire decade together, and that was
enough for him.
Would a fake spend 10 years with him to help him recuperate,
and not pull anything on him?
It looked like these fakes were up to no good. This too was
actually a good way of telling real from fake. A pity that the
demonic emperors were still in the thick of a messy argument.
The appearance of fake Wu Yu and Wu Jun made the situation
even more chaotic.
"You!"
Besides the injured Unending Demonic Emperor who fled, the
remaining nine demonic emperors all showed great surprise,
turning to face the fake Wu Yu and Wu Jun.
Wu Yu’s remaining bronze pendant was foremost on their
minds!
As Wu Yu fled with Wu Jun, they had searched high and low
for the pair, but had not found them in the last decade.
However, he was foremost in their minds. He had said that only
both bronze pendants together could create a unique effect, and
so they had no choice but to find him.
To think that now Wu Yu and Wu Jun would take the initiative
and come looking for them.
"What are you two doing here?" Olden Demonic Emperor’s
clear voice rang out, tinged with suspicion and wariness.
They were in a mess themselves, unable to distinguish real
demonic emperor from fake. If Wu Yu and Wu Jun took this
chance to create even more chaos, they might suffer badly!
But a glimmer of greed crossed his eyes at seeing Wu Yu. After
all, the remaining bronze pendant held great temptation for him.
If he could just get it, perhaps the entire Eternal Emperor Tomb
would be his to plunder.
Although the demonic emperors had nothing to show for it so
far, but they had not been here that long, had they?
Just a mere decade here. It was nothing to the centuries,
millennia, Yuan that they had spent outside. Time here was but
the merest breath in a very long life. They were not at all
worried. Especially when they had set their sights on something
important. Such as the bronze pendant that Wu Yu currently
held.
The remaining four demonic emperors and five fakes all looked
greedily at "Wu Yu" and "Wu Jun". It was all too obvious what
their intentions were.
However, fake Wu Yu and Wu Jun maintained their
composure. They seemed oblivious to the mood, and declared
confidently: "I can tell you apart - who is real and who is fake!"
This shocked all nine demonic emperors.
The four real ones were truly stunned, while the five fakes were
marvelous actors. No one could tell that their expressions were
not genuine.
Even before they could respond, the fake Wu Yu pointed to the
real Olden Demonic Emperor and said: "This Olden Demonic
Emperor is the real one!"
His words were met with an astonished silence.
The real Olden Demonic Emperor was gratified at being
acknowledged. But before he could so much as smile smugly,
the nearby demonic emperors immediately attacked him with
all sorts of painful heavenly rules!
Olden Demonic Emperor was pummeled like Unending
Demonic Emperor before him. He had already been injured
badly, and could not stand the concerted attacks of so many
demonic emperors.
He was indignant: "I’m the real Olden Demonic Emperor. Are
you all mad?!"
But as he shouted, he immediately realized that the one pointing
him out was Wu Yu. Wu Yu said that he was real - why the hell
would the other demonic emperors believe that?
At this time, both real and fake demonic emperor would attack
him.
Just as Olden Demonic Emperor cried out, all sorts of attacks
barraged him again. Even the fake Olden Golden Mountain was
attacking him, rubbing salt in the wound by using his own
heavenly rule against him.
In a desperate attempt to protect his life, he used his last resort,
turning into a beam of golden light and fleeing. He left a parting
shot: "You’ll regret not recognizing me!"
With this, Olden Golden Mountain turned to flee, vanishing
into the mists.
The remaining eight demonic emperors consisted five fakes
and three real ones, now that the real Unending Demonic
Emperor and Olden Demonic Emperor had fled. However, the
three real demonic emperors did not know that the two who had
fled were real. They were still under the impression that they
had rid themselves of two fakes.
From beside, Wu Yu frowned at this situation.
It seemed like the fake demonic emperors were trying to
separate the five demonic emperors. Wu Yu did not know why.
But his instinct told him that if he let these fake demonic
emperors and "Wu Yu" have their way, he might well be the
next one done in. Therefore, no matter what their purpose was,
he could not let this continue. It was time to throw a spanner
into the works.
These fakes in the Eternal Emperor Tomb were very disarming
indeed. Wu Yu felt that the key to a breakthrough might well
be through these fakes.
As Olden Demonic Emperor fled, Wu Yu came out with Wu
Jun before "Wu Yu" and "Wu Jun" could pull anything else off.
He was the one who understood the entire situation from
beginning to end.
As he stood out, there was astonishment all around.
Before anyone could speak, Wu Yu looked them all in the eye
and said: "You’ve all been tricked! The injured one who just
left was a real demonic emperor! The remaining Olden
Demonic Emperor and Unending Demonic Emperor are
fakes!"

"And them, of course they’re fake too. Of course, I can prove

this!" Wu Yu said, gesturing towards "Wu Yu" and "Wu Jun".
As Wu Yu stood up to say this, the remaining three demonic
emperors were naturally doubtful.
But hearing Wu Yu say that he could prove himself, they
decided to listen on.
"And how will you do so?" Perpetual World Tree asked. He
was still composed, even in the midst of a crazy situation.
Wu Yu looked at him and said: "No matter what I do, the fake
can do the same. There is just one thing that he definitely cannot
take out. And that is the bronze pendant!"
Saying this, Wu Yu immediately pulled out the bronze pendant.
In the misty gloom, the pendant did not react, but gleamed with
an enigmatic and ancient luster, as though it had mysteries yet
to be plunged.
Seeing the pendant, the remaining three real demonic emperors
finally believed Wu Yu.
As Wu Yu showed them the pendant, the three real demonic
emperors’ greed showed plainly on their faces. But this was not
the time to make a grab at it. If they did, the remaining eight
demonic emperors would end up in a big fight, and they might
not survive that.
"Now I believe that you are real. But there is no way to prove
if the rest of what you say is real." Celestial Meteor noted
coldly.
The only thing he believed in was that he himself was real.
Wu Yu had said that the two they had driven away were real.
He did not believe that.
Perpetual World Tree and Dignified Lava Beast were of the
same mind. Therefore, they were still hostile towards Wu Yu,
and the fake demonic emperors were still the same.
If Wu Yu had no way of proving real or fake to them, then they
could continue to cause trouble and achieve their goals.
But Wu Yu shook his head in response. "It doesn’t matter if
you don’t believe me. But since we’ve proved that I’m real, can
we join forces to defeat these two fakes first?"
He gestured towards "Wu Yu" and "Wu Jun", and said: "If you
are real demonic emperors, then help me kill these two. That
will prove that you are real!"
Wu Yu had already thought through this process. He definitely
would not put himself in harm’s way.
This sounded a reasonable offer to the three demonic emperors.
Just like Wu Yu, they suspected that all of these fakes were up
to no good. In comparison, the real Wu Yu seemed like the
lesser of the evils.
After all, these fakes were too bizarre, too dangerous!
At least they knew what Wu Yu was. An immortal from the sky
palaces, with the strength of a 9-heavens demon king.
But these fakes left them scratching their heads.
A person’s greatest fear was always the unknown, and 9-
heavens demon king were equally people-like in this regard.
Therefore, the three remaining real demonic emperors agreed
to Wu Yu’s proposal. They would first deal with the fake Wu
Yu and Wu Jun.
Just as this consensus was reached, the situation changed.
The fake demonic emperors and Wu Yu and Wu Jun all
vanished into the mists!
Chapter 1607: Black Sphere
The fake demonic emperors and Wu Yu and Wu Jun all
disappeared silently into the mists, as if they had never
appeared.
In a trice, only Wu Yu, Wu Jun, and the three real demonic
emperors were left looking at each other.
Wu Yu had not expected them to leave so suddenly as well.
Two against three demonic emperors was not good odds.
"The bronze pendant should be in one of these three’s
possession." Wu Jun guessed.
Wu Yu nodded. "I was thinking the same thing. But there are
three of them, and we can’t win the fight."
However, whether to fight or not was not just Wu Yu’s
decision.
With the imposters disappearing, the three real demonic
emperors quickly formed a secret pact, and then flew out to
surround the pair!
"Leave the bronze pendant behind." Dignified Lava Beast
growled in a low and threatening voice. Lava began to flow
from him, encircling Wu Yu.
Perpetual Demonic Emperor and Celestial Demonic Emperor
did likewise, surrounding him and using their heavenly rule
powers to lock him in!
Wu Yu could not possibly take them head on.
Frowning, he cast his gaze about, trying to identify who held
the bronze pendant. However, he could not tell.
And they were pressing to get his bronze pendant now.
"Let’s retreat first."
In that split second where the heavenly rule powers rushed
inwards, Wu Yu used Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and
Earth to shrink himself, and fled with Wu Jun out of the killing
zone.
In the fog, Wu Yu simply had to be in his smallest form, and
he would be impossible to find.
Besides, Wu Yu saw no need to move separately. He could just
follow behind them and see what they planned to do.
As Wu Yu slipped away, the attacks of all three connected with
nothing but mist.
"Gave us the slip again." Dignified Lava Beast gnashed his
teeth in frustration.
"Like a housefly, that one. Bang down and nothing’s there. A
real ghost." Celestial Demonic Emperor spit out. He too was
extremely irritated that a mere immortal could get away time
and again. It was infuriating.
But until now, they had yet to find a way to hold Wu Yu. The
only weakness that he had shown so far was Wu Jun.
"As long as we can get a hold of the mystical dragon, we can
threaten him." Dignified Lava Beast said. This was their only
way of getting the bronze pendant to date.
"That’s daydreaming, it is." Perpetual World Tree said icily.
"They are back together now, and won’t split up. If we couldn’t
even get them last time, it will be even more difficult this time.
Let’s just continue searching the mists. I don’t believe that we
can’t even get into one grave!"
"Perpetual Demonic Emperor, you look after the bronze
pendant first. We will search and also look for Olden Golden
Mountain and Unending Crepuscular Sea." Celestial Demonic
Emperor said steely.
Wu Yu was eavesdropping on all of this.
He now knew that the bronze pendant was with Perpetual
World Tree for now. And from their tone, it seemed like they
would only be able to remove the seal on the bronze pendant
when all five demonic emperors were together.
This was to safeguard against anyone making an individual
break for an eternal demon emperor grave.
Although they might present a united from before Wu Yu, but
in truth they had no one else’s interests but their own. They had
to create checks to ensure their own stake in things.
After the exchange was done, Dignified Demonic Emperor,
Perpetual Demonic Emperor, and Celestial Demonic Emperor
continued to search the mists.
Their small talk along the way told Wu Yu about their
movements up till now. They had searched for the last 10 years,
sometimes together, and sometimes apart. Most of the time,
they had come up with nothing, but they had encountered
eternal demon emperor graves three or four times.
However, just like with the Grave of Lifeless Eternal Demon
Emperor previously, they were all protected by the finest of
epochal immortal designs. They were thoroughly repelled, and
one bronze pendant was unable to do anything to help.
Next, they would find the other two demonic emperors and
quickly join forces. At the same time, they would be searching
for Wu Yu. Best if they could find Wu Jun alone.
However, they were oblivious to the fact that Wu Yu was
currently tailing them. Wu Jun was now in the Floating Dreams
Pagoda, continuing to rest. Since Wu Yu was simply following
them, there was nothing for Wu Jun to do.
Wu Yu wanted to see if there was any chance for him to get the
bronze pendant.
If he could just get it back, he would hold all the cards in Eternal
Emperor Tomb.
He continued in his Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth
form, shrunk to his minimum size. He was nigh invisible in the
thick fog. If not for the fact that the three would occasionally
make noise, Wu Yu himself would be hard-pressed to follow
their tail.
They continued to search the mists for anything at all.
Another few years passed, and the three had found nothing.
Along the way, they had only found mist and more mist. Of the
eternal demon emperor graves, Olden Demonic Emperor, or
Unending Demonic Emperor, they were nowhere to be seen.
The three demonic emperors were still quite calm. After all, a
few years was but a blink of an eye to them.
It was Wu Yu instead who was beginning to waver. He was
starting to doubt that following them was the wise choice.
Perhaps he was missing other opportunities.
"But if I leave now, it will not be easy to find them again. The
bronze pendant is still with them as well. best wait and see."
Wu Yu curbed his restlessness and stayed the course. Finally,
something special appeared before them after another three
years!

This was a mysterious black sphere, not like the epochal

immortal designs that had protected the eternal demon emperor
graves.
This mysterious black sphere was much bigger than the graves,
and they could not make out its sides in the misty gloom.
It had a strange golden shine to it that marked it no ordinary
object. It even exuded a faint threatening aura.
The three demonic emperors were curious, and gradually
inched closer to it. Wu Yu too also followed suit, and very
quickly sensed a faint danger.
The metallic surface of the black sphere was carved with many
ancient and arcane patterns, as though forming many great void
immortal designs of the finest quality.
The three demonic emperors and Wu Yu inched ever closer.
Because this black sphere was not protected by an epochal
immortal design, they sensed that it might be even more
dangerous than the eternal demon emperor graves, inherently.
The three demonic emperors made no reckless move. They did
not attack it, but first examined it thoroughly.
They were all completely engrossed in studying the black
sphere, and had completely let their guard down against Wu Yu
spying on them.
They constantly discussed their thoughts.
"Could this be the key to the entire Eternal Emperor Tomb? If
we break this, will the mists disappear, and reveal all of the
eternal demon emperor graves to us?" Dignified Lava Beast
said eagerly.
"We can’t even get into a single eternal demon emperor grave.
Let alone this strange black sphere...?" Celestial Meteor
snapped at them. He did not hold out high hopes regarding this
black sphere. After all, he too knew that with great opportunity
came great risk. And one had to be alive in order to enjoy
riches.
Therefore, he was not that absorbed in the black sphere, instead
turning his senses outwards against danger.
The black sphere floated silently in the mist, and there seemed
to be no other danger appearing. Only the golden patterns on
the surface of the sphere gleaming, in a somewhat wicked
manner.
After a while, Perpetual World Tree’s voice rang out, tinged
with caution and excitement: "Come over quick. There’s an
entrance here!"
The three demonic emperors quickly headed over.
Wu Yu was following behind as well, and he too spotted an
entrance to the black sphere. It was circular, like a mouth, and
pitch black inside.
There were a few bloody words scrawled across the entrance:
"Graveguarding Palace, No Living Beings Allowed"!
The raw scarlet scrawlings had a sinister air to them, that made
one’s flesh crawl.
Even the three demonic emperors had a bout of cold feet. They
stood before the black sphere, hesitating. This place was scary,
unnervingly scary. Who knew what they would meet within?
They might even die within.
"Nothing ventured, nothing gained, eh?" Dignified Lava Beast
led the way, only after a moment’s thought. To him, living a
little longer meant nothing if he could not reach eternal
immortal emperor level.
And having come all the way here, he might well be facing the
key to the entire Eternal Emperor Tomb. How could he back
away?
Chapter 1608: Graveguarding Palace
Dignified Lava Beast led the way, charging past the glaring red
reminder.
Trail blazed, Celestial Demonic Emperor and Perpetual
Demonic Emperor did not want to lose out, and followed his
lead in.
The three demonic emperors were in now.
Wu Yu and Wu Jun were hanging around in the mist outside,
staring at the red words and chewing it over.
"Let’s go in. Nothing much to be afraid about. They’ve already
gone in. If you ask me, this is some sort of test. Whoever can
pass it will win the rewards of the Eternal Emperor Tomb." Wu
Jun smiled.
The black sphere screamed danger, but this was no time to shirk
away. Might as well be optimistic about it.
A test. It was possible. Wu Yu nodded. "In we go, then."
They walked in together, to avoid any accident which might
pull them apart. The dangers of the Eternal Emperor Tomb
aside, the other demonic emperors were also a very real threat
that Wu Yu could not afford to overlook.
If Wu Jun fell into their hands, they were in trouble.
But as the two of them plunged into the sphere, Wu Yu found
that Wu Jun had vanished from his sight!
He frowned and whirled around. The entrance had disappeared
as well, and he was in complete darkness. He could not even
see anything with the Eyes of Fire and Gold.
He was in pitch darkness.
He yelled, but got no response. His eyes seemed to have lost all
meaning in this dark space. Even his voice carried far away into
the distance. He had no idea where the end of this black space
was.
To think that Wu Jun would be lost to him from the moment
they entered. Or perhaps this was something about the
Graveguarding Palace, that would break people up.
There was no way to leave either. Wu Yu could only begin to
search in this dark space, flying all around.
With darkness all around him, Wu Yu soon found that even his
sense of direction was hard to maintain. All he could do was to
fly forwards. In a mere few days, Wu Yu felt that he was losing
his mind.
The pure darkness was completely devoid of anything. No
matter what Wu Yu did, there was no reaction or response. He
felt like he was completely alone in this world.
After another few days, the darkness before his eyes finally
began to fade, and he found himself facing what seemed to be
a wall.
Wu Yu saw some candles a short ways away from him as well.
"This is a closed chamber?"
Wu Yu said alarmed, studying his circumstances.
He had been moving forward with great speed, covering
unknowable distances. And now when there was light, he found
himself surrounded by old walls. It was only a small chamber
that held him.
"I flew for so long, and it was just circles within this chamber?"
Wu Yu was completely bewildered, and he started to carefully
examine his surroundings.
The chamber looked small, but it was nothing simple.
Otherwise, it could not possibly have held him for so long.
He could see that the eight corners of this chamber were all lit
by candles, throwing light and shadows around the room. There
was a vaguely threatening air about them. Who knew how long
these candles had been here?
The chamber walls were built out of weathered and battered
bricks. They looked old, but they were no ordinary bricks.
Immortal designs were inscribed all over them, great void
immortal designs which Wu Yu did not know the use of. But
he knew at least not to touch them recklessly.
The chamber was not big, but exuded an oppressive and stifling
feel.
"See if I can open it first."
Besides the walls and candles, there was nothing in the
chamber. He could not possibly stay here.
Wu Yu considered, then selected a wall to attack.
"Violent Art!"
"Submerged Cloud Seal!"
Wu Yu’s buffs layered on top of each other, and his Submerged
Cloud Seal blasted the wall he had chosen.
After a deafening bang, Wu Yu’s eyes widened. The simple
looking wall had not even changed at all after his attack. Not
even an iota of dust had been shaken loose.
This old room was completely unchangeable. It flickered in the
candlelight.
"What in the world is this place?"
Wu Yu carefully looked at the wall he had attacked. The great
void immortal designs had not changed at all. It was as if his
attack had been nothing more than a puff of air.
Even a pinhead-sized area of the wall held millions of immortal
designs, and it was completely unshaken by Wu Yu’s attacks.
Wu Yu felt that perhaps not even eternal immortal emperors
would be able to break the chamber and leave. It seemed to be
a jail, and a jail that was designed for eternal immortal
emperors at that.
It was indeed difficult for Wu Yu to escape such a jail.
"I have to find out more about this place." Wu Yu sensed that
he was in a tough spot. If he could not leave, then everything
else was futile. The Eternal Emperor Tomb, eternal immortal
emperorhood, all of it was but a daydream.
He started to test out his strongest powers, and was still unable
to budge the wall even an inch. He forced himself to calm and
rest. He analyzed his situation, and again studied the chamber.
The candlelight flickered and swayed, casting his shadow on
the surrounding walls. Some of them were clearly outlined.
He began to think about this phenomenon. Could these candles
or shadows have something to do with the way out?
After all, there was nothing else in the chamber besides the
candles, the brick walls, and the shadows.

He turned his attention from the tangible to intangible.

At certain positions, Wu Yu’s shadows would overlap. And at
other times, he tried to walk close to one candle so his shadow
would cover the other candles......
Wu Yu tried all kinds of methods, and time ticked by. It seemed
to tick faster and faster.
A year, two years...
Five years, ten years...
No matter how much Wu Yu studied the candles and shadows,
he made no headway. The shadows followed him around, but
nothing else changed.
He felt trapped, fettered, and the feeling only intensified as
more and more time passed.
No matter what he tried, nothing worked.
He even tried attacking the candles, but they were
inextinguishable fires. Wu Yu’s gut told him that these candles
might be even harder to break than the walls.
Throughout, the people inside the Floating Dreams Pagoda
would also come and help Wu Yu.
Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi were both diligent about it.
They were also trapped with Wu Yu, and getting worried as
more time passed. They too were the bearers of elite immortals’
legacies. If they could not even reach eternal immortal emperor
realm, that was a shame indeed.
They too racked their brains, but their ideas were equally
ineffective.
In order to get out, Wu Yu had begun a careful inspection of
every inch of the walls. Perhaps the secret to getting out was
small but right in the open.
At this time, Wu Yu was beginning to feel that his chances of
getting out were dwindling by the moment. However, he
refused to give up.
"When we came in, wasn’t there a reminder? Graveguarding
Palace, Living Beings Not Allowed! This wouldn’t be a jail,
would it? One that is impossible to get out from." Ye Xixi
fretted.
"We might really be trapped for eternity here. How could
someone as handsome as me be so unlucky?" Full Moon of
Nanshan’s face was also full of uncharacteristic misery and
dejection.
Their reactions were understandable. They had probably been
trapped in here for 1000 years, with nothing changing at all,
and all of their ideas exhausted.
If this continued, they might simply expire here.
Ye Xixi mentioned a jail, and Wu Yu believed it. Eternal
Emperor Tomb and Graveguarding Palace looked like a final
resting place indeed. Perhaps it was a one-way journey here.
Wu Yu too was in misery. If he had no way to get out, wouldn’t
that be terrible?
All he had that was related to the Eternal Emperor Tomb was
the one remaining bronze pendant. But he had already tried it
before, to no effect.
He began to speculate - perhaps both pendants were needed to
work?
Wu Yu had no idea. If he had not lost the one bronze pendant
before, maybe he would be in a better situation. But he would
not blame Wu Jun, who he himself had dragged into this.
"1000 years have passed. What am I to do?"
The question was foremost in Wu Yu’s mind. He realized he
might die here, trapped!
Chapter 1609: Tedious Times
Although 1000 years had passed, Wu Yu was frustrated but not
despairing yet.
He continued to try ways and means of getting out. Day after
day, year after year, and still nothing was working.
Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi joined in the thinking
process, and also used their own techniques to try opening the
chamber.
In a flash, 10,000 years had passed. Wu Yu had already
examined every inch of the great void immortal designs, of
which there were millions in even an area the size of a pinhead.
Wu Yu had looked through every single one of them, and had
gotten nowhere with it.
These great void immortal designs were all used to strengthen
the brick walls, and revealed no way to break open a path. They
were a true prison.
He had lost count of how many times he had re-looked at those
immortal designs. He still had no clue of how to leave the
chamber.
He had tried everything that he could think of. As for the eight
candles, he had tried tens of thousands of ways to deal with
them, before finally giving up.
Sometimes, he would vent his pent up feelings by attacking the
walls violently.
He still held out a hope, no matter how small, that the walls
could only take so much damage before they would open a
path.
If Wu Jun was right that this was all a test, then perhaps it was
a test of perseverance and endurance.
But as more time passed, his despair started to grow.
10,000 years, 20,000 years......
Time continued to march relentlessly on. Being cooped up for
so long was affecting their mental state, Full Moon of Nanshan
and Ye Xixi included.
Wu Yu yearned for Luo Pin on the outside. The thought that he
would never see her again brought another violent rage to him,
which he transferred to the walls, to no effect.
Tedium begot desperation.
Wu Yu did not know how many times he had fallen into
despair. After each angry outburst, he sank into despair. He
would sit woodenly, mind blank, almost like a stone statue.
Before he knew it, 50,000 years had passed.
Wu Yu had forgotten how he had come to be here. He only
knew fear and misery. If only he had not come into the
Graveguarding Palace.
But there was no point crying over spilled milk. It would only
exacerbate his mental darkness.
Wu Yu felt like he was close to his limit, and his despair was
about to engineer his total collapse. He could not imagine the
rest of his life being spent here in the chamber, until he expired.
A tragic end.
Previously, Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi would still talk
and chat with Wu Yu, and discuss possible solutions. Verbal
consolation was available for whoever was in a slump.
But now, the three of them were all in abject states. A few loud
quarrels, and they now kept their distance from each other.
In such a state, they could not even focus on cultivation.
Jiu Ying was also in the Floating Dreams Pagoda. He had been
silent during this time as well. At first, he had been diligently
trying to catch up to their cultivation realm, but now he simply
sat quietly in the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
He harbored no resentment towards Wu Yu. After all, he would
have died to the Apocalyptic Chaos Demon without Wu Yu, or
at the hands of the Diabolical Dragon King.
However, he too was feeling discouraged. Wu Yu was in a
berserk state, and there was nothing he could do to improve the
situation.
Everyone, Wu Yu included, was forcefully repressing the
fevered frustration festering within themselves.
In 50,000 years, many things should have changed. And being
cooped up like this was not conducive to a good state of mind.
They occasionally tried to cultivate, but there was not much by
way of immortal qi in the chamber, and cultivating was not very
effective. They could only reinforce their current cultivation
realm, Mystiques, and heavenly rules.
Day after day, Wu Yu vented his frustration against the walls,
until finally he collapsed to the floor, staring up at the ceiling
in a daze.
He lay in a stupor for 1000 years, not talking to anyone,
contemplating his life.
He had been born a mortal, a starting point that was far, far too
low. Even after cultivating, he could only reach the most basic
martial realm.
Until he met the old man Sun Wudao, who had changed his life
and put him on a completely different path. And then the people
of Heavenly Sword Sect, who had also changed him
fundamentally. His new life had begun then.
While in the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wu Yu had been at the
lowest level in the world of cultivation, but those had been
some of his most fulfilled days. He had friends and family, and
was not always cultivating alone.
The stark contrast to his current isolation only made it even
more painful to think about.
In the Heavenly Sword Sect, a mere few years had passed, but
they had been colorful years. And now, 50,000 years had
passed, and nothing had happened.
He continued to drift through his memories, recalling details at
Shushan such as his time with Nangong Wei. From the
beginning, they had shared a special bond, but that young
Nangong Wei no longer existed.
After Shushan, he had slain Beishan Mo, one of the most
bittersweet fights of his life. He had conquered his own heart
devil, and paid the price by becoming Nangong Wei’s enemy.
Or perhaps, the Nangong Wei in Primordial Immortal Empire
had merely been getting her own abck at him? Until now, Wu
Yu still did not know if it had been Nangong Wei or Dancing
Flame Phoenix Lord.

After leaving Shushan, he recalled his journeys to Yan Huang

Imperial City. It was here that he had obtained his second body,
the Heaven Devouring Avatar, which had now fused into his
single body.
Without the Heaven Devouring Avatar, he would not have
come this far. Perhaps he would have gone down a different
path of dao.
Without the Heaven Devouring Avatar, he would already have
been killed and devoured by the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor,
everything that he had taken away. The Great Sage, Heaven’s
Equal’s legacy would have been stolen, and he would be a sorry
patch in the ground.
Thinking back to his struggles against Yan Huang Ancient
Emperor, Wu Yu recalled Luo Pin in those days.
He had laid eyes on her for the first time in Yan Huang Imperial
City, and their feelings had taken root. By the time they had
reunited after a long separation, she was already the Lord of the
Four Seas.
Their difficult times in Heaven Devouring Evil Residence had
established a firm bond, and later on Luo Pin had maintained
her feelings for him despite ascending to the sky palaces,
believing that he was the one for her.
As the memories came back to him, Wu Yu could not help but
sigh. Caught up in the present, he had forgotten how many
years he had already lived.
A mere few centuries in the mortal domain had been so
exciting. They had played a formative role in his life that the
millennia that came after did not change.
The fight with the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor had been a
push for him to enter the sky palaces.
Back then, he must have been a mere infant in the eyes of the
Yan Huang Ancient Emperor. An infant with a great treasure.
The ordinary folk of the Jambu Realm must have seemed like
ants to the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor back then. As long as
they could not reach immortalhood, they were doomed to die
in a few hundred years.
Those who could ascend from the mortal domain were few and
far between, especially from a humble realm like Jambu Realm.
It was luck that allowed Wu Yu to obtain the Great Sage,
Heaven’s Equal legacy, to arise from the sea of mediocrity.
When he reached the sky palaces, the way ahead had seemed
endless, and he had come so far since. And still, the memories
were not as deep as his time in the mortal realm.
"Such a thrilling life I have led so far. Could I really be
spending the rest of it here?"
Wu Yu dwelled on this for 1000 years. Within this time, he
continued to reset his mind and spirit, envisioning all of his
experiences as understandings of the passage of time.
Although the few centuries in the mortal domain had been
extremely short, but they composed an exciting chapter of his
life.
Although he had since cultivated for tens of thousands of years,
but in terms of his lifespan now, they were but akin to a mere
few years in a mortal’s lifespan.
Although the scale of time had expanded greatly, but nothing
had changed, fundamentally.
"These 50,000 years are but 5 years in a mortal’s life! No
wonder it’s said that ’A day in heaven is a thousand years on
earth!’ To those at the Great Void Immortal Realm, 1000 years
is but a day in a mortal’s life!
Wu Yu had never thought much about time so far, despite using
the marvelous properties of the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
But now, he began to think profoundly about time!
Chapter 1610: Chronowarp Heavenly Rule
Wu Yu himself was surprised that he was gaining new insights
about time amidst his despair, by turning to his memories.
His experience with time manipulation so far had largely been
limited to the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
Through his memory journey of a millennium, he gained new
insights and experiences, which was definitely a good sign. It
was enough to jumpstart his delving back into cultivation.
The passage of time was absolute, and yet it held a different
meaning for cultivators depending on their realm.
In the mortal realm, 100 years was a lifetime. Before ascending,
most had a few centuries. After ascending, one suddenly rose
to the five and six-digit marks......
Time would seem to pass faster, but to Wu Yu, it was all the
same. Except that they were refracted through the different
phases of his life.
10,000 years to an immortal felt the same as a few years to a
mortal. This was where time seemed to warp. As Wu Yu
grasped thihs point, he felt like he had begun to make progress
into the mysteries of time.
It was one of the most profound mysteries, and to be able to
understand it thoroughly was not easy. Otherwise everyone
would have made it part of their dao.
Fortunately, Wu Yu still had the Floating Dreams Pagoda for
reference. It was full of time manipulation power, and the way
it interacted with the flow of time was a constant fascination
for Wu Yu. He learned from it, deriving his own knowledge
about the power within.
It was a heavenly rule power, and Wu Yu’s sixth heavenly rule
power.
Wu Yu had assumed that he would first complete his Dao of
Big and Small from Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth,
or Dao of the Void from his Somersault Cloud Mystique. Yet
within this sealed chamber, he had actually found a new
approach to things.
Rather than harp on leaving this this place, perhaps the answer
would naturally present itself after he had mastered the
changing of time.
The most important thing was to reach a knowledge
breakthrough. He threw all his energies into it, constantly
comparing and analyzing the different passings of time during
his mortal days and immortal days, synthesizing patterns.
He realized that time was a notion that changed with his
lifespan. And when he was cultivating, tens of thousands of
years could seem like a few years. If he could somehow
replicate that special phenomenon in battle, would he not be
invincible?
If he could change time in battle, so that for each breath of time
his opponent had, he had ten, how many more moves could he
pull off?
He could send 10 Mystiques to deal with every move!
If he had such an ability, he would be invincible within his
cultivation realm. Challenging 9-heavens immortal kings
would also be a piece of cake.
Dao of Time Manipulation was Wu Yu’s main focus now. He
also studied the immortal designs of the Floating Dreams
Pagoda to further deepen his understanding.
As he continued to learn, he finally mastered all of the Floating
Dreams Pagoda’s immortal designs. A sudden epiphany struck
him, and a twisting ball of light appeared on his kingly
immortal spirit.
This twisting light seemed random and unordered, but actually
followed an enigmatic pattern. It represented the varying
speeds of time, and had coalesced into a heavenly rule. This
meant that Wu Yu had completed a new heavenly rule power:
chronowarp heavenly rule!
He had originally assumed that he would have to complete his
daos in order, but now the order was switched.
Having reached 6-heavens immortal king realm, he was
confident of taking on 9-heavens immortal kings and demon
kings easily.
After mastering chronowarp heavenly rule, Wu Yu’s fighting
power was unparalleled amongst those below the eternal
immortal emperor realm.
This was a metamorphic change. He was surprised at his ability
to make such progress within the confined chamber.
However, now that he had reached the 6-heavens immortal king
realm, he was in no hurry to leave the chamber. After this
revelation, he no longer minded the passing of time as much.
He could calibrate his attitude at will.
After learning chronowarp heavenly rule, he first tested it out.
He realized that he could use chronowarp heavenly rule to
create a chronowarp globe. Within it, he could manipulate the
speed of time, and it was effective against all under the eternal
immortal emperor realm.
With this, he could increase his own speed and reduce his
opponent’s, which could result in vastly different outcomes
during battle. Against any of the five demonic emperors, Wu
Yu was confident that this heavenly rule power would allow
him to triumph.
Only at the 6-heavens immortal king realm could Wu Yu
finally defeat 9-heavens immortal kings. This showed the
rapidly increasing difficulty of each tier.
At first, Wu Yu had only been a 1-heavens immortal king, and
he could already defeat a 6 or even 7-heavens demon king.
But now he had increased by 5 tiers, he could only beat a 9-
heavens immortal king, which meant that he had had to increase
two tiers in order to overcome one tier, subsequently.
In any case, he was here now. The Dao of Time Manipulation’s
completion was game-changing.
But this was not what Wu Yu was most overjoyed about.
Rather, after he completed chronowarp heavenly rule, he
realized that the room which trapped him was nothing more
than a time field!
Time here passed 10,000 times faster.
Although Wu Yu and the others had felt that 50,000 years had
passed, but in truth only 5 years had passed in reality. This little
bit of time meant that he was left largely unaffected.

After learning this, Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi were

crying with joy. They had thought that they would die of old
age here, but now Wu Yu’s breakthrough had seen the chamber
for what it truly was.
Especially now that Wu Yu had seen through the chamber’s
secret, it seemed possible that he could eventually find a way
to break it.
"Old Wu is always dependable. I always knew I made the right
choice to follow him! Hehe!" Full Moon of Nanshan regained
his usual jolliness. He had been pulling a long face up till now,
bemoaning about how the beauties of the world were lonesome
and needed his company.
"This means that the entire Eternal Emperor Tomb and
Graveguarding Palace were just a sort of test? Now that Big
brother Yu has passed the test, will he get a reward?" Ye Xixi
was interested in this, and she was looking forward to what
came next.
Full Moon of Nanshan patted her head and sighed: "Pity, pity.
This handsome prince was about to settle for living with you
for the rest of his life. Now it seems like this little girl won’t be
so lucky."
"Eurgh!"
Ye Xixi ducked away from his porky hand in disgust. "Drop
dead!"
Watching their banter lifted Wu Yu’s heart. They had all been
beaten down in the chamber, and now that they were out, they
had returned to normal.
After puzzling out the problem, Wu Yu wasted no time in
unraveling the immortal designs on the walls.
He had originally mistaken these immortal designs for
fortification designs. After learning chronowarp heavenly rule,
he saw that all of them were time accelerating immortal
designs, that sped up time within the chamber by 10,000 times.
He could deal with them now. All he needed was to attack them
with the chronowarp heavenly rule, and he could soften them.
After familiarizing himself with the usage, he began to attack
the time immortal designs with chronowarp heavenly rule.
These immortal designs had remained immovable under his
other attacks, but now they began to chip away.
From beyond the crack, a faint blue light shone through. This
was the first sign of something new in all this time. He was
gratified that he had finally found the way through.
"Follow me!"
Wu Yu broke out a path, and called Full Moon of Nanshan and
Ye Xixi back into the Floating Dreams Pagoda. Shrinking
himself with the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth, he
flew through the crack, taking them all with him.
If the Eternal Emperor Tomb truly had been a test, then Wu Yu
had passed the first trial.
But Wu Yu was curious. Would there be a second trial?
If the first trial had been this difficult, how much more
insurmountable would the second one be?
Very quickly, his vision was filled with blue light, until he had
thoroughly left the secret chamber. He found himself in a
transparent crystal coffin of light blue. Through the coffin, he
could see a stormy scene outside, where lightning and rains
crossed!
Chapter 1611: White Jade Platform
The pale blue transparent crystal coffin was very narrow, and
he was trapped inside. Looking back, he could not see the secret
chamber at all.
He tried to break the crystal coffin, but found the Submerged
Cloud Seal ineffective. Another trap.
On the bright side, at least he was not alone within this crystal
coffin.
Beside him were six other crystal coffins, making a total of
seven. They were all lined up on a white jade platform, a small
platform that seemed to be the only safe place in the void.
Beyond the white jade platform was a fearsome storm of
lightning and rain. It seemed clear that if Wu Yu went there, he
would be killed in a flash.
"They’re actually all within crystal coffins."
Wu Yu saw the other five demonic emperors and Wu Jun all
within crystal coffins.
Seeing Wu Jun unharmed made him breathe a sigh of relief.
The other five demonic emperors looked to be in roughly the
same state. Only Wu Yu was awake out of the seven coffins.
The rest seemed to be in a stupor.
The five demonic emperors were all in their human forms, lying
down. The white jade platform would not be able to hold their
true forms without exposing them to the storm outside.
"Perhaps they’re still in the chamber?" Wu Yu mused. It was
unknown.
But if he could not break the crystal coffin, then it hardly
mattered where the waiting game was held.
He was surprised that he had escaped from one trap only to be
in another trap. The only consolation was that the others were
similarly trapped.
He had seen three demonic emperors enter. This meant that the
other two must have come in earlier.
He relaxed a little. Perhaps they had to all wake up before the
next round would begin.
Of course, he did not relax too much. He continued to try
various ways of breaking out, and even pulled out the bronze
pendant. He only gave it up after three years, when he had tried
everything he had.
He was initially about to continue trying, but at this time
someone else had woken up. Unending Crepuscular Sea!
Ever since the last confusing fiasco featuring the five demonic
emperors and their fakes, Wu Yu had not seen Unending
Crepuscular Sea.
Three years after Wu Yu woke, Unending Crepuscular Sea also
came to in the crystal coffin. He looked around him to see the
others, and only Wu Yu awake!
In any case, he was open to talking with Wu Yu. Wu Yu
naturally wanted to talk to him as well. They might be enemies,
but under such circumstances sharing information was a
benefit.
They quickly discovered that they could not hear each other
across crystal coffins, but could only sign.
Seeing that there was no way to communicate with Wu Yu,
Unending Crepuscular Sea turned his attentions to breaking out
of the crystal coffin.
As for Wu Yu, he had already tried everything he could. He
was no longer impatient. While Unending Crepuscular Sea
made his futile attempts, Wu Yu continued to strengthen his
cultivation, honing his heavenly rule powers further.
He foresaw that the demonic emperors would probably wake
up sooner or later. And even if Wu Jun finally woke up as well,
it would still be 2 v 5.
It was a likely outcome, and not a favorable situation.
Especially on the white jade platform, no one knew what lay
beyond, and the storm seemed lethal indeed.
Wu Yu’s Somersault Cloud might well carry him into the
middle of the storm, and then he would be dead.
Therefore, Wu Yu was not intending to use the Somersault
Cloud unless under extreme circumstances. And yet, two on
five was not good odds.
Strength was all too important. Forget the Eternal Emperor
Tomb’s test, first Wu Yu had to consider how he would deal
with the five demonic emperors.
Another 10 years passed.
The five demonic emperors had all awakened. Soon after
Unending Crepuscular Sea was Perpetual World Tree, and then
Olden Golden Mountain, Celestial Meteor, and Dignified Lava
Beast awoke almost all at the same time.
With the five demonic emperors awake, the odds did not look
good for Wu Yu, even if they were all unable to converse.
Finally, only Wu Jun remained asleep. Wu Yu could tell from
the looks in their eyes that the demonic emperors fully intended
to kill Wu Yu as soon as possible.
The crystal coffins were yet to open, but once they did, Wu Yu
was in trouble.
The five demonic emperors locked on to Wu Yu like predators
on prey.
Wu Jun remained unconscious.
Wu Yu’s warning bells were ringing louder and louder. In these
last 10 years, he had already polished his sixth heavenly rule to
a high level, and could take on any one of the demonic
emperors easily.
But now he was faced with five.
Up till now, no one had found a way to open the crystal coffins.
It was part of the Graveguarding Palace’s design, and it was
impossible that they could get out of it.
Finally, two years after Dignified Lava Beast had awoken, Wu
Jun finally came to within the crystal coffin. All of a sudden,
the crystal coffins began to melt.
"It’s starting." Wu Yu warned. He saw that the other crystal
coffins were beginning to evaporate. At this rate, the crystal
coffins would vanish in less than a day’s time.
And at that time, it would be him and Wu Jun versus the five
demonic emperors.
Wu Jun was still disoriented as he woke, but there was probably
still a day’s time before the crystal coffins fully vanished. He
soon had a grasp fo the situation, and a sober expression
marked his understanding.
It was going to be a straight fight from hereon!
Wu Yu had expected something like this. Once everyone was
ready, the crystal coffin would have them kill each other.

Luckily, he had already made preparations.

As the seven crystal coffins on the white jade platform melted
at the same time, Wu Yu was constantly trying to break out of
it, but he could only leave after a day, when the coffins had
completely melted.
The other six burst out of the crystal coffins at the exact same
time, and the two sides were clearly divided on the white jade
platform.
One side was the five demonic emperors!
They could not revert into their true forms for now, but even in
human form they could easily suppress Wu Yu and Wu Jun.
On the other side was Wu Yu and Wu Jun. They occupied one
corner of the white jade platform for now, facing off against the
five demonic emperors.
They did not fight immediately. After all, this was a strange
place, and they were waiting to see what else might happen.
Everyone tread cautiously.
Wu Jun took the opportunity to ask Wu Yu: "How do you feel?
Can we take them?"
Wu Yu shook his head. "Not very confident, but there’s nothing
else to do but try. They can’t change to their true forms for now,
which means their maximum strength can’t be unleashed. Even
with five of them, they might not be able to take us down
quickly."
"I hope you’re right. Let’s go for it!"
Wu Jun nodded gravely. He sensed that Wu Yu had grown
much stronger. Clearly, he had made some sort of a
breakthrough within Graveguarding Palace. Perhaps they stood
a chance.
"Oh, the elements around the white jade platform should not be
touched at all costs. They are superb immortal kernels, and it’s
instant death to touch them!"
Wu Jun warned Wu Yu as he looked around. "That is the Soul
Eater Wind, which can swallow an immortal’s spirit and wipe
you from existence. That is the Death Valley Flame, its
destructive force is unparalleled. And the sleet is Eternal Night
Frost. Even an eternal immortal emperor would be frozen solid
upon touching it. Finally, that is Karma’s Lightning, which can
strike directly at your immortal spirit."
Having come from the sky palaces, Wu Jun could recognize
these things.
Wu Yu nodded. "Got it. No touchy touchy."
Otherwise he would be deady deady.
The situation was getting awkward. Everyone was on guard
against something else happening, but some time had passed
and nothing ellse was happening. The five demonic emperors
could wait no longer.
"Let’s take them down first, and talk later."
The five demonic emperors agreed, and headed for Wu Yu’s
corner.
Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The five elemental
heavenly rule powers came surging towards them. Luckily they
were not in their true forms, or Wu Yu would be reduced to
dust!
The fatal attacks were about to connect. At this crucial moment,
Wu Yu and Wu Jun could not afford to let it touch them. They
had to dodge preemptively.
Wu Jun was first to act. He used his Primordial Immortal
Dragon heavenly rule power to carry him to a different location.
Wu Yu was rather calm at this time, and he left a remnant
shadow in his original position as they left. He used Fulgurating
Shadows to create a small path through the void, and avoided
the attacks of the five.
Chapter 1612: The Instant Counter
The five demonic emperors’ first attack was completely evaded
by both Wu Yu and Wu Jun. They weren’t happy about that.
The demonic emperors were surprised when the pair appeared
at the other side of the white jade platform. They immediately
knew that Wu Yu had picked up another trick that could be used
to defend himself.
"But it’s impossible for them to escape for long within such a
small area. If we join forces, they’re not our match!" Dignified
Lava Beast crowed.
Previously, he had fought Wu Yu one on one before, but he had
not been able to keep up in the mists.
And if he was alone now, he might not dare to fight Wu Yu.
After all, defeat here meant death. There was no escape. Either
be killed, or be thrown out into the deadly elements.
Everyone could sense the wind, chill, fire, and lightning raging
around the white jade platform!
The attacks of the demonic emperors had missed, flying out of
the white jade platform and vanishing into the elements without
so much as a spark. The immortal kernels had completely
absorbed them.
"Keep it up! That punk can’t hide forever! Where’s he gonna
go? Out there?" Celestial Meteor bawled. All five again
attacked, their different elemental powers surging forth!
Wu Yu continued to keep calm, holding thoughts of survival
foremost in his mind.
"Chronowarp Globe!"
He used his sixth heavenly rule, chronowarp heavenly rule, and
extended it to cover the entire white jade platform, the five
demonic emperors included!
In the crystal coffin, he thought he had mastered it. But no
matter how much practice he had, it was ultimately different in
the heat of real battle.
However, the chronowarp globe extended out, and the
movements of the demonic emperors seemed to retard as they
turned to him. He had more breathing room to dodge now.
Wu Jun stuck close by, unaffected thanks to Wu Yu’s
manipulations. He could also feel the demonic emperors’
slowing.
He had no time to consider how this was happening, but
continued to dodge attacks alongside Wu Yu.
This was also a narrow miss, but better than the last time. They
were getting used to it now, but their opponents were adapting
accordingly as well.
"Dodging and dodging eh? Let’s see how you deal with this
one!" The five demonic emperors roared. Again they moved,
but now their attacks were focused in different directions, each
one taking up a section.
The five demonic emperors covered the entire white jade
platform with their attacks!
No matter where Wu Yu and Wu Jun dodged, they would
definitely have to tank one attack.
The two were forced towards the weakest attack.
It was a harrowing fight. Wu Yu had yet to make chronowarp
heavenly rule truly his own. It did not yet feel like an extension
of his body, and was clunky to wield.
On the narrow white jade platform, they dodged and weaved.
Sometimes they would tank one attack. Heavenly rule power
flew back and forth, and the pair were constantly on the back
foot against the concerted effort of the five.
If this situation kept up, they would soon be worn down and
killed!
Wu Yu was doing fine. With Fulgurating Shadows from his
Somersault Cloud, he could still hold on for a while, but Wu
Jun was tiring quickly. He did not have as many agility-based
techniques as Wu Yu had. He was starting to feel the strain of
tanking the blows as well.
"Into the Floating Dreams Pagoda first!"
Wu Yu made the decisive call to shelter Wu Jun within for now.
Wu Jun felt a pang of shame. He was supposed to be here to
help Wu Yu, but now Wu Yu had grown, and he was the
limiting factor.
However, there was nothing he could do about it. He was on
the verge of giving out, and was no help to Wu Yu. Might as
well stay safe inside the Floating Dreams Pagoda, and enable
Wu Yu to work his best magic.
Wu Jun leaped into the Floating Dreams Pagoda without
hesitation.
On the white jade platform, only Wu Yu was left, standing
against the five demonic emperors!
But at this time, Wu Yu was getting the hang of his chronowarp
heavenly rule.
He continued to watch the entire field. He knew that his
chances of winning were infinitesimally small. He had to finish
off one of them first, to break the field wide open.
But with the five united, Wu Yu was pressed too hard to attack
any one. If he forced the issue, the other four would end him.
"Seems like I’ll have to call on some other strength!"
Wu Yu continued to dodge with his Fulgurating Shadows, sped
up further by the chronowarp globe. He began to watch his
adversaries for weaknesses. The slightest slip up, and he would
pounce without mercy.
Although the demonic emperors felt victory was in their grasp,
but they proceeded cautiously, presenting a seamless offense
against Wu Yu.
United, there was vindictive triumph etched across their faces.
They had been tricked and snubbed by this kid for far too long.
Finally, this white jade platform was the stage where they
would take him down.
Oh how good they felt, seeing him flee desperately before
them!
Their synergy grew more and more sublime, and Wu Yu was
running out of space to dodge. Besides, they were getting used
to Fulgurating Shadows’ movement, and could restrict his
evasion to a certain extent.
They were already very close to ending this fight.
But at this crucial moment, Wu Yu realized that Unending
Demonic Emperor was standing in a dangerous place on the
edge of the white jade platform. A few more steps, and he
would be gone with the elements!
Unending Demonic Emperor had done so in order to coral Wu
Yu further. He would cut off a portion of Wu Yu’s escape route.
And yet, this was exactly what Wu Yu was waiting for.
"Die!"

The dodging and ducking Wu Yu chose this moment to bare

his fangs. He rushed towards Unending Demonic Emperor.
"Doppelganger heavenly rule!"
"Golden eyes heavenly rule!"
Wu Yu immediately used both heavenly rule powers in his
chronowarp globe. His clones flooded the entire white jade
platform, and they all used doppelganger heavenly rule at
Unending Demonic Emperor.
Because of how narrow the white jade platform was, the 1
million doppelgangers were unable to fully unleash their
doppelganger heavenly rule.
More crucially was golden eyes heavenly rule. Wu Yu had
trained golden eyes heavenly rule to perfection. His eyes
glowed with golden light, and he beamed it at Unending
Demonic Emperor!
Unending Demonic Emperor reacted quickly to Wu Yu’s
counter. But within the chronowarp globe, quickly was just a
beat slower than usual.
Besides, Wu Yu’s clones had occupied every single empty
space on the white jade platform. There was no space for
Unending Demonic Emperor to duck into.
In the end, Unending Demonic Emperor could only choose to
tank the blow!
"Crepuscular Sea heavenly rule!" Unending Demonic Emperor
had not used this move before. It was clearly his trump card.
Wave after wave of black energy rippled out from his body to
form a crepuscular sea. It swept out towards Wu Yu’s golden
eyes heavenly rule, and the two clashed in midair with a terrible
explosion!
The intensity of heavenly rule power on both sides was cranked
to a maximum. It was as strong as a 9-heavens immortal king
or demon king could produce.
This explosion sent shockwave after shockwave rippling out
across the white jade platform. It was so strong that Wu Yu
himself could not help but stagger a few zhang backwards.
The same for Unending Crepuscular Sea.
The interaction between their two heavenly rule powers blew
them all apart, and Unending Demonic Emperor was sent flying
out of the white jade platform.
Wu Yu’s clones had occupied the whole of the white jade
platform, and Unending Demonic Emperor had no immediate
place to return to!
He tumbled backwards, and was immediately surrounded by
the immortal kernels outside.
Soul Eater Wind, Death Valley Flame, Eternal Night Frost, and
Karma’s Lightning. They compounded and swarmed Unending
Demonic Emperor. In one vicious crackle, he was gone.
In one final desperate move, Unending Demonic Emperor had
transformed into his Unending Crepuscular Sea true form in his
final moment. But he had not yet completed his transformation
before the immortal kernels finished him off.
Unending Crepuscular Sea’s true form had only appeared for a
brief flash, and then he was devoured, gone for good.
Wu Yu was in danger as well. In order to deal with Unending
Demonic Emperor, he had to accept the attacks of all four other
demonic emperors.
Luckily, his Invincible Vajra Body was at the Eternal and
Indomitable Vajra Realm, or he would not have been much
better off than the Unending Demonic Emperor. Even so, he
was badly injured, although clearly doing much better
compared to the complete eradication he had dished out to
Unending Demonic Emperor.
Unending Demonic Emperor’s death cooled the other four
demonic emperors down immediately. They all repositioned,
afraid of making another dangerous move.
They were afraid that Wu Yu would do something reckless and
send them off the white jade platform!
