Chapter 1274 The War Emperor! (1)
“Junior brother!”
Song Yuan and the others felt conflicted as they saw their junior brother arrive.
They had seen how he clutched Kayafollet’s neck as if she were a lamb to be butchered. The girl was no match for Su Ping, even after receiving the legacy. That was the most likely reason for his survival.
They didn’t know how their junior had done it, and even suspected that Su Ping had been concealing his true level, an Ascendant who had just reached the Celestial State. Everything would make sense if that was the case.
“This place isn’t safe anymore. Senior brothers, come with me; let’s leave immediately,” said Su Ping in a hurry, not giving them any chance to ask questions.
Everybody was dazed. Song Yuan looked at the ancient corpse and asked, shocked and suspicious, “Is it because of that?”
They couldn’t see the ancient corpse clearly, but they could tell that a terrifying aura was being spread from that general direction. The likelihood of the corpse actually being reanimated was there.
After all, even Ye Chen-a mere Celestial – was already capable of resurrecting. They could only imagine the power of a universe dominator.
“Yes.” Su Ping nodded and waved a hand, creating a round force field with chaos power. He said, “I’m going to tear a way open through the wall of the universe and flash back to the Celestial Court. Senior brothers, please come in.”
Chunyu suddenly asked, “Junior brother, where’s Master?”
Su Ping clenched his fists, taken aback by the question. “They killed Master, but he left a clone waiting for us in the Celestial Court. I will help master in reforging a body and recover his Celestial cultivation!”
His declaration was done with determination; it also sounded like a promise to himself.
The expressions of his seniors changed when they heard Su Ping’s resolute voice. There was too much information packed in that sense; they also realized that their master could have died. However, it was terrifying to find that Su Ping would help him reforge his body.
Song Yuan wasted no time in talking, noticing Su Ping’s anxiety. “Let’s go back first.” The weird feeling caused by the ancient corpse made him uneasy, like having fallen into a snake pit.
The others remained silent, simply entering Su Ping’s force field.
A figure emerged in the void right then. He was none other than Chi Huo.
He looked around and saw Su Ping. He instantly flashed over and asked, “Brother Su, where are you going?”
“This place is dangerous. We’d better get out of here,” said Su Ping, “Look at the crack.”
Chi Huo looked quickly, momentarily stunned. Time and space were removed before his eyes, allowing him to see the ancient corpse with clarity. His expression changed in an instant; he then understood why he had that ominous feeling when he came out from the deeper spaces.
“What’s that?” Chi Huo was appalled. Is a creature trying to break in from beyond the crack?
He had learned a thing or two about the things found beyond the universe after researching countless relics and ancient books. He then thought of all sorts of terrible possibilities and his face blanched, clearly not expecting an even bigger disaster to happen.
“Hurry up, let’s go!” Chi Huo couldn’t help but roar. He looked at Su Ping and said, “Brother Su, let’s break the universe’s wall together and return to the Celestial Court!”
“Okay.”
Su Ping agreed, wanting to return Chi Huo’s generous aid in battle.
“I’ll go fetch my disciples. Be right back,” said Chi Huo in a hurry. He then disappeared.
Su Ping could only wait on the spot. He also activated his power to break the universe’s wall in advance, so that they could leave as soon as Chi Huo returned.
Song Yuan and the others were shocked by the way Chi Huo was addressing their junior. They knew that Su Ping was strong, having suppressed Kayafollet, but they never thought that the fiery-tempered Chi Huo would regard him as a peer.
This was a clear indicator; Chi Huo acknowledged that Su Ping was as strong as him!
Furthermore, they thought that the former had never been as courteous, even towards their master.
Roar!!
Exactly at that moment-a furious roar burst out without any warning. Everybody’s ears were split, and their souls were almost about to fly out of their bodies.
Su Ping was quite taken aback too. He hurriedly looked and then witnessed the most unbelievable scene. The now standing corpse was throwing a punch at the crack.
Countless stars seemed to be glittering on its fist, which contained a power that surpassed the might of any small universe!
The aftermath of such a strike was enough to make Su Ping feel that the universe was falling apart. His body instinctively detected the danger and unleashed more power.
A deafening roar burst out. The black hands grabbing onto the crack in the universe moved to intercept the corpse’s incoming fist, only to be smashed back into the crack.
“Is the ancient corpse really resurrecting?” Su Ping was shocked.
That creature was as strong as a God Emperor. He hadn’t detected any aura of vitality in that body; even its legacy had been given to Kayafollet. And yet, it was resurrecting?
Su Ping had spoken to God Emperors in the Archean Divinity before, the gap between his and their level was too massive for him to learn much about them.
Su Ping extended a hand and fetched Kayafollet’s head from the universe of chaos. He asked, “You received the legacy. You must know who the ancient corpse was, right?”
Kayafollet’s head was held in Su Ping’s hand. She felt conflicted, no longer resentful and angry with Su Ping’s interrogation.
She had a deep, first hand sense of Su Ping’s real power once inside the universe of chaos. He had only used but a tenth of his strength to suppress her!
