Chapter 1061: Chapter 1057: Seeking Guidance from a Senior
Upon closer inspection, the fallen leaves seemed to contain a world of their own, encompassing all things, astonishingly vast. At the moment they touched the ground, a tremendous killing intent was released.
Filling the heavens and earth.
Everyone’s expression changed dramatically. The Heaven Rank alien race that had rushed in quickly retreated, feeling a chill on their scalps. When they signed contracts with the Divine Clan, they glimpsed many truths.
There might be a true God oppressed here.
An unimaginable scene.
Now, the older generation of their clan’s strong are suffering calamities, all because of a disciple resembling Lingyun. Perhaps the God on the Old Kui Tree is about to take action.
He will absolutely not allow anyone to approach Lingyun, nor will he let anyone awaken Lingyun’s will.
The killing intent of the fallen leaves pierced through the void, causing many Heaven Rank experts to explode on the spot, their flesh and blood splattering in all directions.
Among them, a leaf flew towards Han Sanqian, carrying thousands of strands of killing intent, densely packed. Before it even got close, Han Sanqian seemed to see the scene of his own tragic death.
His face turned pale, his whole body trembling, and he cried out, "That is not my scripture, it’s really not mine, ah ah ah! I am not a disciple of Lingyun Emperor, I am a half-blood from the Eastern Mausoleum."
The sound was loud, transmitting from the great world to the other side of the arena.
Crash!
The fallen leaves covered him, and everyone thought Han Sanqian was doomed, there was no way he could escape.
The one guarding the Old Kui Tree was clearly not an ordinary strong being, he was very powerful, like a God overlooking the world.
However...
The Emperor’s scripture surrounding Han Sanqian began to blossom, and a golden "God" emerged from between his brows, maneuvers in its eyes, expanding with a slap.
With a rumbling sound, that hand entwined with golden light actually blocked the killing intent of the fallen leaves.
It was only a few inches tall, but the divine brilliance was endless. After a slap, it charged straight towards the Old Kui Tree without saying a word.
The next moment, the towering tree was covered by the aftermath of the battle, a vast expanse where no one could clearly see the combat scene, only able to sense the heart-wrenching power fluctuations.
Yue Wuxia knew, it was Pingping.
He used Han Sanqian to create a false image, but in truth, he was the one taking action, wielding the might of the Great Emperor to battle the God.
Rumble...
Sounds of thunder echoed, the dark green sky trembled repeatedly, the earth shook, even this great world rippled, seemingly unable to withstand such vibrations, about to disintegrate.
Everyone was stunned.
They didn’t know who was manipulating things in the dark, but... everyone saw that the small golden figure was emerging from between Han Sanqian’s brows.
Wrapping around the Emperor’s scripture, identical to the one on Han Sanqian.
So, Han Sanqian was taking action? Battling the one on the Old Kui Tree.
Crack!
Thick branches fell from the tree, stained with terrifying blood, concealing endless killing intent.
Clang!
The sound of a bell echoed, the power of sealing that suppressed this world shattered like a broken mirror.
Beneath the tree body.
The burly Lingyun slowly opened his eyes.
"He is alive again," an alien race exclaimed.
"How can he still be alive?"
Years have passed, the arena opened time and again, and several times the figure of Lingyun Emperor appeared, but he remained as still as a mountain, unmoving like a rock.
Many speculated that Lingyun Emperor had already fallen, and what appeared in the arena was the Emperor’s body, or perhaps... merely a remnant thought of Lingyun Emperor.
But now, Lingyun had come back to life, his vitality extremely vibrant, he looked up at the towering Old Kui Tree.
Chen Pingping’s God was battling the "God", the two evenly matched, neither able to subdue the other.
But for the "God", this was undoubtedly shocking.
He was not a complete "God", just a wisp of divine sense, but this wisp of divine sense was injected with the blood essence of the God, inheriting many aspects of the God to a great extent.
He also had mighty power.
Once such power is released, it can easily slay an Emperor Realm.
Why does it remain "evenly matched"?
Damn it!
The divine sense was furious, mighty power bursting forth like floodwaters from a collapsing dam, continuously released. At this moment... his expression was cold, killing intent boiling, wanting to destroy Chen Pingping with a single strike.
But below, Lingyun had awakened, watching the battlefield, like an abyss gazing at him.
The divine sense quivered within, recalling the great battles of the past, Lingyun was not an ordinary Emperor Realm, he had traversed the five internal organs, possessed divinity, even starting to condense a faint God Grid in his Sea of Consciousness.
If Lingyun made a move, coupled with this unknown interloper, his existence as a divine sense would certainly have no escape.
"Young man, you have stirred up big trouble," the divine sense said in a sinister tone, coldly watching Chen Pingping’s true form.
Chen Pingping remained silent.
These words reached Han Sanqian’s ears, which filled him with immense fear, trembling as he said, "Senior, it’s not related to me!"
The divine sense turned and fled into the void, disappearing without a trace.
The towering Old Kui Tree still stood, like a mountain unshakable, below it lay hundreds of branches and a heap of giant fallen leaves.
These branches and leaves emitted a faint glow, containing a certain divinity.
Yue Wuxia smiled and ran over, starting to gather what was left behind.
Chen Pingping looked back, and the next moment Han Sanqian fainted with a "poof" sound, as the great world was also enveloped by a layer of mist, completely isolating it from the outside world.
He walked towards Lingyun, "Greetings, Senior."
"You... are quite good," Lingyun turned around, a pure body with flashes of Power of the Great Tao continuously emanating, yet... he was not the true him.
Chen Pingping, as a Great Emperor, naturally knew.
So many years have passed, perhaps the real Lingyun had already fallen, perished on that path.
Now, the Lingyun Emperor was merely a remnant thought, suppressed in his own arena.
How tragic.
"Though not long since attaining the Great Tao, you possess the power to slay Gods, a hopeful sign for the Human Clan," Lingyun sighed.
If he knew Chen Pingping had once slain a God, how shocked would he be?
"I seek a path from Senior," Chen Pingping, despite being the Great Emperor of this era with many astonishing achievements, still maintained the attitude befitting a junior when facing predecessors.
Because he understood very well, without the sacrifices of the predecessors, there would be no current Human Clan.
Possibly, many years ago, the Human Clan would have already been annihilated.
Moreover, he sensed that the Lingyun in front of him, even as a remnant thought, emitted a faint mighty power.
Unbelievable.
Could it be that Lingyun Emperor was about to be enthroned as a God?
Had he reached that step?
Chen Pingping felt a sense of awe.
"What path do you intend to walk?" Lingyun asked with a smile.
"Divine Enthronement," was the straightforward reply.
"This path is not easy, you may die on the way."
"With predecessors paving the way, followers closely trail behind. If I cannot attain Divine Enthronement, I will emulate the seniors to leave hope for future generations," Chen Pingping said solemnly.
It was not that his resolve was extraordinary, but saying this resonated more with Lingyun Emperor.
These pioneers had sacrificed so much for the Human Clan, willing to give up everything to blaze a path for the clan.
As expected...
Hearing these words, Lingyun’s expression shifted slightly, then he fell silent.
Guidance!
Two differentiations, the first is to tell Chen Pingping the road ahead, letting him proceed on his own, the second is to give everything to open a path for Chen Pingping.
Since establishing the arena, he had seen countless Human Clan Great Emperors over the years.
Those Great Emperors were either ambitious, extraordinarily talented, or incredibly vigorous. They each had their unique traits, weaknesses, and strengths.
But without exception, they all lacked a certain level of awareness, solely focused on Divine Enthronement, invincible across the heavens and myriad realms, never contemplating their roots.
But Divine Enthronement is by no means an individual achievement, requiring too many things.
Therefore, Lingyun only provided the first path.
Without surprise, they all failed, falling on the path.
"If you perish, what will you leave for the Human Clan?" Lingyun asked.
This...
Chen Pingping felt a little guilty!
