The Heavenly Emperor had fallen.
The wind was howling and the sky was raining blood. The universe was moaning for the fall of the Heavenly Emperor through its own way.
Some of the people were crying while the others were excited.
Above the Tianyuan Sea.
“He’s dead?!” Riyue Changfeng found it hard to believe. “This shouldn’t be happening. Even if he can’t defeat him, I’m sure he’s fully capable of running away. How can he be killed so easily?”
“It’s because of the Great Demon Venerate. I’m sure no one can survive against the destructive power after burning so many small and middle chiliocosms. Besides, many of the Heavenly Emperor’s formations have been destroyed by someone as well,” Jiang Ming said. “The Heavenly Emperor is dead, but the Great Demon Venerate won’t live for long.”
“Yeah, you’re right.” Riyue Changfeng shook his head. “The Demon Slaying Order and the Heavenly Emperor’s last order aren’t enough to drive the Demon Venerate to the corner. Unfortunately, he has exhausted the origin of the Abyss as well as his own karma by destroying so many worlds. He’s at his most vulnerable state and now is the perfect moment to kill him. Those who have always wanted to get rid of him will definitely not let go of this chance. Besides, if they can kill him, they will be able to ascend to the throne of the Heavenly Emperor too.”
“There is no victor in this war,” Jiang Ming said, “Brother Riyue, I need to go back for a while!”
Riyue Changfeng frowned and he felt confused.
‘Why is he going back at a moment like this? Could it be that…’
The Tianyuan Realm.
After Jiang Ming had come back, he masked his presence and pulled out the Human Paths Record. He wrote the Heavenly Emperor Seal on it, and his eyes glowed.
“Found it!”
The Heavenly Emperor Seal.The supreme treasure of the Honggu World. It represented the Heavenly Court and it held endless power. It was able to mobilize the origin of the universe as well.
After learning the Heavenly Emperor’s situation, he knew that the Heavenly Emperor would not let go of this treasure.
However, the Heavenly Emperor Seal had been banished into the rift of time and space, and it seemed to Jiang Ming that this was part of the Heavenly Emperor’s plan.
He could go look for it if it had fallen into the rift of time and space. As for the Heavenly Emperor Sword and the Emperor Crown, they were thrown into the depths of time and space after the last hit.
Jiang Ming formed a clone and sent it toward them through the Human Paths Record.
The void was vast. No one knew where it started or ended. There was no order or laws in this place, and if one was not careful enough, they could be killed easily even if they were a Great Overarching Golden Immortal.
After the clone had appeared, he noticed the seal that was floating ahead of him.
The one that died was just a clone of the Heavenly Emperor. In other words, this treasure still had its owner, but now…
‘Jiang Ming’ looked at the Human Paths Record beside him and cast his special ability. After he had seized the Heavenly Emperor Seal, he pulled it into the Human Paths Record.
Without wasting a second, the clone went into the Human Paths Record and returned to the original Jiang Ming.
Very soon, a figure appeared.
“The Heavenly Emperor Seal is gone?”
This was none other than the original Heavenly Emperor.
He tried to look everywhere, but he could not find it.
“I’ve left an imprintment on the Heavenly Emperor Seal, so how could it get taken away by other people? Who took it away? A Saint Lord? Or is it Riyue Changfeng?” The Heavenly Emperor frowned.
In the next second, he had lost his connection with the Heavenly Emperor Sword and the Emperor Crown as well.
“Who set me up? Or there is an ancient being who coveted these three treasures and took them away?”
The Heavenly Emperor activated his divine eyes and looked into the void. However, nothing could be found.
“You’d better not get caught by me!” The Heavenly Emperor harrumphed coldly and left in a hurry.
He needed to get the three items back. He was going back first, and then he would look for them through a secret method.
“Well, this is what you get for winding the entire world around your little finger,” Jiang Ming chuckled after the clone had returned to him.
“Should I get the Blood Banner from the Great Demon Venerate next? That’s a Holy Weapon after all!” Jiang Ming fell into a contemplation.
After a long while, he decided not to get the Blood Banner from the Great Demon Venerate for now.
After all, he would become everyone’s target if he got the Blood Banner. This was not something he wanted.
He lifted his head and activated the Dharma Eyes.
The Great Demon Venerate appeared. The Blood Banner was fluttering on top of his head and he was holding his sword in his hand. He exuded an imposing aura, but his physical body was in a poor shape.
It looked as if he would collapse at any moment, but his injuries were healing at a rapid pace.
He was not as powerful as he used to be now. Most of his subordinates were dead. Other than the Black-Hearted Old Demon, he had only Venerable Chang Sheng left.
He brought with him 16 venerates, but he had only two now. Not only that, but both of them were seriously injured.
