Chapter 1225: White Emperor
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Nanfeng Guhong's words caused the expressions of many experts here to change. The Southern Phoenix Clan was one of the three ancient clans of the Southern Regions and has been established for countless years, with incomparably deep foundations.
If the Southern Phoenix Clan fully supported the Evergreen Immortal Empire, they would be able to send unending waves of support through the the teleportation array. Undoubtedly, if these enemies of the Evergreen Immortal Empire chose to fight here now, it would be extremely disadvantageous for them.
Hence, what Nanfeng Guhong said was very true. It wasn't that difficult if she wanted to make that White Tiger Demon Emperor remain here forever.
"I really want to see how you can make me remain behind." The White Tiger Demon Emperor let out a low roar as he reverted into his true form. At this instant, his baleful energy enveloped the atmosphere completely.
"Seems like there's no way to settle this peacefully today." The Skymist Immortal Emperor coldly spoke.
In truth, the situation now was something that the Skymist Immortal Emperor didn't expect. It was precisely because of how strong the Southern Phoenix Clan was that the White Tiger Race and the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire didn't choose to seek revenge. Hence, they decided to join forces and work together to take down the Evergreen Immortal Empire instead.
In actuality, they didn't have such a crazy thought before. But because of the opportunity presented from the adjudication ruling, they decided to use this chance to ally together.
From their predictions, Eastern Sage could deal with the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord, the Violet Emperor could deal with Matriarch Ji, while the Skymist Immortal Emperor and the Paragon Sword Emperor could join forces to fight against the Evergreen Immortal Emperor who can control the Eternal Evergreen Tree. If they were unable to, the Taihua Immortal Emperor could join them as well.
Other than this, the Sky Demon Palace Lord, the White Tiger Demon Emperor and an immortal emperor from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire was here as well. The number of immortal emperors on their side was already sufficient to sweep through the Evergreen Immortal Empire with impunity. If they acted carefully, they might even be able to kill the Evergreen Immortal Emperor.
Once they succeeded, the benefits naturally would be immense. The ancient treasure Eternal Evergreen Tree, the other emperor-ranked weapons, all the cultivation arts and innate techniques here, as well as the resources. All of them could completely devour this entire empire to enrich themselves.
As for the trigger points, they were none other than Qin Wentian and Qing`er. Actually, they were of secondary importance but the immortal emperors still needed an excuse to form an alliance. Now, if the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was defeated and they were captured, their fates could very well be imagined.
How could all these immortal emperors really gather here just because of two juniors? They were naturally here for the immense benefits they would gain after devouring the Evergreen Immortal Empire.
Also, even if they didn't manage to capture the two juniors, it was fine as well. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor wouldn't go too crazy and act against them even if his empire was swallowed whole unless one day, he grew strong enough to the extent where he could defeat peak-level emperors.
Hence, this emperor-ranked battle happened.
Right now, since the emperor-ranked battle has already erupted, how could one expect them to retreat with just a few words?
"Let's act." The Skymist Immortal Emperor spoke. In the air, the light from their constellations fell over their bodies, as the stars shimmered brilliantly. With a punch, points of astral light scattered, each manifesting into a divine elephant that rushed towards the Eternal Evergreen Tree.
Swishing sounds echoed out as the vines from the ancient tree squirmed from the impact. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor has already fused with the Eternal Evergreen Tree and on the trunk of the ancient tree, a pair of eyes could be seen, staring at the divine elephants rushing over.
The Paragon Sword Emperor acted once again. The Paragon Sword floated behind him as its sword light radiated out, extending towards all directions. Sword runes manifested in his surroundings, and yet another rain of swords shot down from the sky, wanting to destroy the Eternal Evergreen Tree.
The branches and vines of the gigantic ancient tree were cut and sliced apart everywhere as a rumbling sound shook the heavens and earth.
"BOOM~" The gigantic body of the White Tiger Demon Emperor directly rushed towards Nanfeng Guhong. Nanfeng Guhong stretched her hand out calmly as a fiery phoenix spear materialized within. In this instant, a gigantic phantom of a phoenix appeared behind her back. Astral light cascaded from the sky, forming a resonance with the phoenix spear as flames burst into being around it.
Nanfeng Guhong stepped forward, piercing out with the long spear that seemingly could penetrate through the world. The White Tiger Demon Emperor let out an earth-shattering roar as powerful layers of armor covered his body. The him right now was a true king among tigers.
Matriarch Ji's silhouette flashed as spatial fluctuations rocked the area. She directly appeared high up in the air, the Violet Emperor soared up as well, in the direction of Matriarch Ji. These two peak-level emperors also wanted to see exactly how strong each other was exactly.
The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor stepped towards the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord. The two of them once fought to a draw in the past. Now that they were once again on opposing sides of the battlefield, they naturally wanted to see who would be the victor now.
The Taihua Immortal Emperor glanced at the battlefield. The emperor diagram behind him manifested millions of troops that directly rushed out, shattering the vines from the ancient tree. War chariots then appeared, rushing towards the tree wanting nothing more than to destroy it.
"Let's finish Evergreen first." The Skymist Immortal Empire transmitted his voice to everyone. The Sky Demon Palace Lord also moved, directly rushing towards the Eternal Evergreen Tree.
The immortal emperors from Matriarch Ji's Sect and the Southern Phoenix Clan, also moved towards the enemy as battles erupted.
In an instant, the space of the battlefield expanded, encompassing an immensely vast territory.
Under the protection from the radiance of the Eternal Evergreen Tree, the ordinary people and weaker experts inclined their heads, staring at the sky, watching all the immortal emperors in battle. Their hearts were all trembling fiercely as they watched.
That immortal emperor from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire continued standing there. He glanced at the battlefield as a cold smile appeared in his eyes. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor who was borrowing the power of the Eternal Evergreen Tree, was currently fighting against four powerful immortal emperors as well as their emperor-ranked weapons and couldn't be distracted. That immortal emperor slowly walked forward, moving towards the direction of the ancient tree.
As he approached, the tree vines and branches swiped through the air, radiating a powerful destructive might. However, this immortal emperor's body shimmered with the light from the void and those attacks actually passed through his body before he materialized once again and continued on his way until he reached the area covered by the protective green light from the ancient tree.
Lowering his head, a cold sneer appeared on his face when he saw Qin Wentian and Qing`er.
When Qin Wentian inclined his head, he could see the immortal emperor coldly smiling at them. His expression drastically changed, if this person wanted to capture him and Qing`er, given the current situation, no one would be able to obstruct him.
That immortal emperor descended down, one of his legs had already passed through the protective green radiance.
But at this moment, a beam of light shot down from the heavens. That immortal emperor from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire instantly frowned, he could feel that he was being locked on. That beam of light was targeting him.
"BOOM!" He no longer descended but chose to instantly soar up into the air instead.
"Bzz~" The immortal emperor's body once again shone with the light from the void. It was like his entire person was in the void but when that beam of light landed, it actually caused the segment of the void where the immortal emperor was in to explode directly.
This beam of light was actually an arrow of extreme speed and power.
"Is he the Chasing Sun Immortal Emperor?" A thought appeared in the mind of the immortal emperor from the Nine-Emperor Immortal Empire. The terrifying destructive might dissipated but he groaned miserably as blood actually appeared on the corner of his lips, causing the hearts of those who saw it to tremble.
A single arrow actually injured an immortal emperor. How terrifying was this?
"Who are you?" The immortal emperor from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire stared up in the sky. He could sense a blurry figure standing in the air, enveloped by boundless astral light as a bow capable of shooting down suns could be seen in his hands.
"If this arrow targets the heaven chosens of the junior generations from your Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire, how many do you think I can kill?" A voice rang out, echoing through the area. "As an immortal emperor, you guys should have some pride. If anyone dares to act against any of the juniors again, I want to see how many heaven chosen juniors there are in your clans and sects for me to kill."
Those immortal emperors in combat felt their hearts turned cold as their expressions changed. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor actually still had forces hidden in reserve?
Also, it seemed that the other immortal emperor of the Evergreen Immortal Empire, the White Emperor, still hasn't appeared yet.
The White Emperor was rumored to be on equal standings as the Evergreen Immortal Emperor. But where was he now?
---------------
Eastern Sage Thirteen Prefectures, Eastern Prefecture, Eastern Sage Immortal Sect.
Right now, the interior of the sect was extremely quiet. However, many people were concerned about the results of the war that was going to erupt in the Evergreen Immortal Empire. This time around, the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor personally made a trip there. All of them were wondering what the end result would be.
However at this moment, outside the majestic immortal sect, a figure cloaked in white could be seen walking over gracefully. He had his hands clasped behind his back and stepped into the immortal sect in a leisurely manner, staring at the stars up in the sky.
"Sir, please halt." Numerous powerful auras gushed forth from within the sect as experts appeared in this air. However, the white-robed figure directly turned illusory, vanishing from their sight, continuing to enter the depths of the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect.
Numerous immortal king auras gushed forth. The immortal kings all showed up, surrounding this mysterious white-robed figure as they stared at him.
That white-robed figure glanced over as he asked, "Where is the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor?"
"His Majesty had some important stuff to settle and has set off to the Evergreen Immortal Empire. If senior wishes to meet with his Majesty, would you consider waiting in our immortal sect?" The experts here knew that this figure was immeasurably deep. They didn't dare to act rudely towards him.
"Oh, what is he planning to do there?" The white-robed figure's voice was as calm as ever, with no hints of fluctuations.
"This…" Everyone wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Let me tell you guys then. The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor went to the Evergreen Immortal Empire, wanting to destroy it." The white-robed figure slowly spoke, causing the hearts of the people here to tremble.
"This is his majesty's matters, all of us don't dare to ask about it. Senior, you came to our immortal sect today, why are you looking for his Majesty?" An expert probed.
"Why?" The white-robed figure turned his gaze towards the horizons as he muttered, "Eastern Sage has already formed an alliance with the Skymist Immortal Empire and the others, desiring to take a part of the Evergreen Immortal Empire's territory. The him now should currently be attacking the Evergreen Immortal Empire. Hence, I'm came here today to the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect."
"Senior, who are you exactly?" Everyone suddenly felt a sense of unease and danger.
"White Emperor!"
The white-robed figure turned his gaze onto all of them. In that instant, a terrifying light erupted forth from his eyes while the expressions of the experts here all turned ashen!
