Chapter 1822 - 1638: Emperor’s Son’s Challenge Letter—Who Dares to Fight?
"You’re overthinking it. Back on the Fifth Trial Continent, I heard that your Alien Emperor’s Son of the Dark Prison was defeated under His Highness the Combat Saint King’s hand. Now that another Emperor’s son has come, I’m afraid he’ll just repeat the same mistake." Chu Shuangyu was absolutely "lifting the pot’s lid," dragging up old humiliations.
"You—"
Ban Gu’s anger ran cold. This was absolutely the greatest shame of the Alien Race—an堂堂 Emperor’s son actually lost under the hand of their mortal enemy from the Sealing Universe, the Combat Saint King.
Yet anyone knew that in that battle the Dark Prison had already displayed its strongest combat power. It wasn’t that he wasn’t strong enough; in fact, no matter which other Emperor’s son or daughter came instead, they wouldn’t have performed better than Dark Prison.
It was just that the power the Combat Saint King showed far exceeded anyone’s expectations, which made the Alien Race incomparably fearful of him, afraid he would become a second Wuxiang King.
But now that he has achieved Chaos Young Supreme, he truly is no different from a second Wuxiang King.
"Both sides, stop talking about this topic. Whether the Alien Emperor’s Son can return is still an unknown number." The Sun King immediately turned and said lightly, "It has no practical meaning at all. Let’s get back to the topic of the Combat Saint King."
"Yes, we agree." The Moon Palace Immortal Couple said.
"You all—" Ban Gu was enraged, but Shengtian, Hu Xue, and the other Young Supremes were the same. As for the Alien Emperor’s Son’s return, they were at best half-believing.
"The Combat Saint King can indeed deal with the Primordial Emperor’s Son. I also heard that he’s right here on the Pill Emperor Star, and not long ago he even struck out to suppress and kill a Peak Heavenly King. But where is he now?" A Young Supreme opened his mouth, yet no one knew where the Combat Saint King currently was.
The scene fell completely silent. No one knew.
"Two Fellow Daoists, you’re from the Moon Palace as well—don’t you know?" Another Young Supreme looked at the Moon Palace Immortal Couple and asked this way.
Hearing this, the two glanced at each other and could only give a bitter smile and shake their heads. "Although the Combat Saint King is the master of our Moon Palace, he is far too ethereal and traceless, and his cultivation is unfathomable. How could the likes of us easily find him?"
"Unless several Hall Masters personally come, I’m afraid only then could they find the Combat Saint King."
Under the Yao Tian Building, Ye Chen couldn’t help but show a faint smile.
Indeed, if the Goddess, Yii Wu, Chen’er and the others came, there would be no need to look for him at all—he would appear on his own.
But right now he was more inclined to observe this great era from the shadows and seize a suitable opportunity to make a move.
The storms over the Pill Emperor Star were roiling through all the heavens, the influence immense. This was still not the time for him to step out.
Boom—
All of a sudden, the entire Yao Tian Building violently shook, startling all the Ancient Road Heavenly talents inside, and fully alarming the fifteen Ancient Road Young Supremes on the top floor.
"What happened?"
"Is someone attacking the Yao Tian Building?"
"Could it be that people from the Primordial Emperor Clan have come?"
Many Heavenly Pride rushed out, and even the group of Young Supremes on the top floor did the same.
But when they came outside the building, they saw an Emperor Clan’s Genius appear. His figure was tall and slender, clad in Immortal Divine Armor. Thunderous booms rumbled from within his body, and from time to time ear-splitting howls rang out. That was the sound of blood surging and scouring his blood vessels—his Blood Qi was at a boiling peak.
Without a doubt, this was a Supreme Emperor Clan Young Supreme.
He stood there in midair, hands clasped behind his back, expression extremely cold, looking down on everyone from on high.
"Wanyan Gudong!"
Among the many Heavenly Pride who rushed out, someone naturally recognized the newcomer’s identity. It was shockingly one of the Five Young Supreme of the Primordial Emperor Clan. For him to actually come here now left quite a few people stunned.
Could it be that this Wanyan Gudong intended to challenge all of the Ancient Road Heavenly talents alone?
"Wanyan Gudong, you dare to come alone?" In the crowd, Shengtian spoke. Though his entire person appeared exceedingly holy, his tone was also icily cold.
The Sun King spoke as well, saying, "Wanyan Gudong, you may be a Young Supreme, but coming alone like this—are you trying to imitate your clan’s Emperor’s Son, single-handedly challenging all of us Ancient Road Heavenly talents?"
The other Ancient Road Young Supremes also looked at Wanyan Gudong with cold eyes. They all stood on the opposing side; if not for feeling that so many against just one would be bullying, they would have already made a move.
After all, they too were Young Supremes, with pride of their own, disdaining to bully the few with the many.
Naturally, when it came to an Emperor’s Son Heavenly Pride, that was another matter entirely.
Wanyan Gudong stood in the Changkong, and said coldly, "You’re overthinking it. I’m not interested, nor am I stupid enough to single-handedly take on so many of you Young Supremes. Unless it were my clan’s Emperor’s Little Ancestor. This time, I came under the Emperor’s Little Ancestor’s commission, specifically to deliver a Challenge Letter to you."
"A Challenge Letter?"
"That’s right." Wanyan Gudong flicked his sleeve, and at once a streak of flowing light shot into the sky, rushing to a stop before the Yao Tian Building.
They saw that it was a ball of light, about the size of a human head, suspended above the Yao Tian Building. It poured out ten thousand strands of Dao Light, like ten thousand Dao descending. A terrifying Qi Mechanism was arriving, suppressing this stretch of heaven and earth.
The many Ancient Road Heavenly talents on the Yao Tian Building instantly couldn’t help but all change color, as if bearing an Immortal Divine Mountain. Their bodies were completely unable to move forward.
Among them, the fifteen Young Supremes also felt an immense pressure as they gazed up at the light cluster in the Heavenly Dome.
"This Emperor’s Son Challenge Letter, I ask all of you to accept it." Wanyan Gudong stood with his hands clasped behind his back, the corner of his mouth lifting into a cold smile as he leisurely regarded these Ultimate Ancient Road Young Supremes.
Yet let alone the many Ancient Road Heavenly talents, even the fifteen Young Supremes all felt a terrifying pressure. The void had congealed severalfold, and mighty as they were, they found it hard to traverse it for a time.
"What now, could it be that you don’t dare accept it?" Wanyan Gudong spoke again, yet no matter how one heard it, there was a hint of ridicule in his tone.
"Damn it, this Primordial Emperor Clan clearly wants to make us Ancient Road Heavenly talents lose face."
The many Ancient Road Heavenly talents all understood: the Primordial Emperor Clan’s Challenge Letter had come not only to challenge, but to give them, these Ancient Road Heavenly talents, a slap in the face before the eyes of the world.
"Hmph!"
Naturally, not one of these Ancient Road Young Supremes was easy to deal with. Their entire bodies shook as they erupted with Supreme Dao Power, resisting.
Though the Emperor’s Son Challenge Letter shone with ten thousand layers of radiance, it still could not stop them. Among them, the Sun King stepped forward first, bearing immense pressure, his face turning slightly pale, yet he still managed to seize the Challenge Letter.
Boom—
All of a sudden, the light cluster blossomed with an even more terrifying pressure, like a million great mountains pressing down together. The void collapsed in all directions, the Sun King’s bones crackling nonstop, even his Sun Holy Light on the verge of shattering as he was about to fall from the sky.
"This is bad!"
Not only the Sun King—other Ancient Road Heavenly talents all changed color. They had not expected the Primordial Emperor to be so fearsome. It was only a single Challenge Letter, yet it actually forced the Sun King’s Protective Divine Light to the brink of collapse, about to send him plummeting from the heavens.
Especially before the eyes of so many spectators—he would utterly lose all face.
"Hehe, this Challenge Letter from our Clan’s Emperor’s Little Ancestor is not something you lot can easily take." Wanyan Gudong let out a cold chuckle.
Yet just as the Sun King was about to fall, a faint, nearly indiscernible ray of light suddenly shot into his body.
In that instant, all his pressure vanished. The Primordial Emperor’s Challenge Letter no longer placed any burden on him. Within his body, a similarly vast and torrential Dao Power began to run, filling him with delight, yet also puzzlement—just who was the august being that had made a move?
"Don’t panic. Take the Challenge Letter and have a look."
A gentle voice transmitted over, carrying a somewhat familiar feeling.
The Sun King was stunned, then immediately understood who it was, secretly transmitting in surprised joy: "Saint King Martial Uncle, is that you?"
Indeed, it was Ye Chen who had acted.
Moreover, Ye Chen and the Sun God hailed from the same Sealing Universe and had old ties. The Sun King was the Sun God’s disciple, so addressing him as Martial Uncle was not inappropriate.
In secret, Ye Chen transmitted, "It’s me. Take the Challenge Letter without worry and look at its contents."
Hearing this, knowing the invincible Combat Saint King was hidden in the dark, the Sun King’s heart instantly settled.
It was as though with this Saint King Martial Uncle here, there was nothing to fear.
For he knew full well how terrifying this Combat Saint King Martial Uncle was—he would not be weaker than the Primordial Emperor. Now, having received his power’s support and dispelled the mighty force contained in the Primordial Emperor’s Challenge Letter, he rose back into the air and pressed his hand on the light cluster.
Hum—
The light cluster abruptly dispersed, leaving only a single Gold-plated Challenge Letter slowly descending, still circulating with a terrifying Qi Mechanism.
"What!?"
All those present stared, dumbfounded, Wanyan Gudong in particular. He had clearly seen the Sun King unable to withstand it and about to fall just moments ago. Yet now his expression was calm as he easily received and took the Challenge Letter.
How could he possibly have done that?
Wanyan Gudong did not believe the Sun King capable. This Challenge Letter had been personally written by the Emperor’s son, containing a portion of his spiritual energy. Even an ordinary Great Power Level Young Supreme would find it unbearable; the Sun King naturally shouldn’t be able to do it.
"What exactly happened? Just now we saw the Sun King about to reach his limit. Why in the blink of an eye can he not only bear it, but even take the Challenge Letter? Incredible!"
"The Sun King shouldn’t be able to withstand it. Just what happened?"
Shengtian, the Moon Palace Immortal Couple, Ban Gu, Yuan Tianzi, Hu Xue and other Young Supremes were all baffled.
No matter how they racked their brains, they could not imagine that in the dark, the Combat Saint King they had been speculating about all along had been hiding there the whole time.
The Sun King ignored the others’ doubts. The Challenge Letter fell into his palm, seemingly thin, yet heavy as a Divine Mountain, making his expression solemn as he pinched his fingers and opened it.
Rumble—
A sharp, frigid Combat Energy blasted out, tearing open the Changkong. If not for the Combat Saint King’s power guarding him, the Sun King felt even his body would have been on the verge of splitting apart, for this Combat Energy was in no way weaker than the radiance that had originally shrouded the Challenge Letter.
The Primordial Emperor was even stronger and more terrifying than imagined.
On the Challenge Letter, a line of razor-edged characters leapt into view—
Ten days from now, atop Huading Mountain—who dares fight?
