Although he had successfully killed the Martial Emperor, Xiao Shi did not relax. Instead, he felt his heart skip a beat. Instinct told him that something big would happen soon! “What did he do?!”
Xiao Shi’s expression was dark. Although he had already killed the Martial Emperor the moment he felt that something was wrong, it was obvious that his death could not stop all of this. Otherwise, the Martial Emperor wouldn’t have said it directly. Instead, he would have thought of a way to stall for time.
“From the looks of it, he’s obviously guiding me to kill him on purpose. In other words, this major event that’s about to happen is very likely to be formed with the Martial Emperor’s death. He deliberately provoked me to kill him so that he could use his own death to trigger this matter.”
Xiao Shi suddenly understood. A deep sense of uneasiness surged in his heart. Although he didn’t know what the Martial Emperor had done, he could more or less determine that since the Martial Emperor wanted to deal with him, he would definitely start with the calamity he was about to face.
After all, there was only one thing that could threaten him. There was only the calamity of the ninth realm of the Martial Dao.
“Could it be that he wants my calamity to descend early?” Xiao Shi guessed. Through his previous understanding of the ninth realm of the Martial Dao, he knew that usually, after stepping into the ninth realm of the Martial Dao, the calamity would not come immediately.
Every ninth-rank martial artist’s calamity came at a different time. Some were fast, some were slow. No matter how fast it was, it would take at least a hundred to two hundred years. If the Martial Emperor brought his calamity forward, then his situation was quite bad.
The probability of dying in the calamity was extremely high. Especially in Xiao Shi’s current state, once the calamity arrived at this time, he would definitely die. But there were no signs of a calamity yet. Usually, when the calamity was about to arrive, they would have a premonition.
If he could not feel anything, that meant that there was still a long time before the calamity arrived.
“If it weren’t for the fact that my calamity had arrived earlier, what would that be?” Xiao Shi fell into deep thought. No matter how he guessed, he did not have an accurate answer.
But he was certain that this matter must be related to the calamity. He shook his head. Xiao Shi put this doubt aside for the time being. No matter what he would face next, the most important thing now was to recover his origin.
This battle between him and the Martial Emperor was the most difficult battle he had ever had since he stepped into the Martial Dao. This battle was extremely tragic.
Although he had successfully killed the Martial Emperor, Xiao Shi had also paid a huge price. He needed to recover his Slaughter Origin as soon as possible. Otherwise, without an Origin, he would only have the strength of a demiG.o.d.
Apart from the Slaughter Origin being broken in this battle, he could also clearly sense that the Will of the Tianwu Continent was also hostile to him.
Although this hostility was not as strong as before, once the world’s will became hostile, that would definitely make the calamity he was about to face even more difficult. This was also the price Xiao Shi had to pay for using the killing intent of the world’s will as a ninth-stage divine power.
Since ancient times, no ninth-level martial artist had ever dared to use the world’s will as their divine power. If he rashly touched the world’s will, he would definitely attract trouble.
However, Xiao Shi did not regret this. If not for the final Tianwu Divine Kill, it would definitely be impossible for him to kill the Martial Emperor this time. Due to the fact that the recovery of the origin needed some time, Xiao Shi could only recover a small portion.
While he was recovering his origin, he checked the items dropped after killing the Martial Emperor. He was looking forward to the item that the Martial Emperor had dropped after his death.
On one hand, it was because of the Martial Emperor’s ident.i.ty. As the leader of an era, the items dropped by the Martial Emperor after his death were definitely not ordinary. On the other hand, the Martial Emperor’s cultivation was in the ninth realm. It was destined that the items he dropped after his death would at least be at the ninth realm.
Such an item happened to be what Xiao Shi urgently needed. Although he had successfully killed the Martial Emperor, he knew that he was facing an even greater calamity. Moreover, the crisis brought about by the calamity would be even more troublesome than the crisis brought about by the Martial Emperor.
What Xiao Shi needed the most now was powerful items. The items that dropped this time would be the most powerful item he had dropped in his life. Xiao Shi looked at the item in his hand with antic.i.p.ation and excitement in his heart. Information about the item appeared in his vision.
[Name: Divine Crown]
[Type: Crown]
[Grade: Divine Item]
[Introduction: ???]
[Remark: ???]
Xiao Shi frowned slightly. The information about this item exceeded his expectations. He did not expect that he could only see the name, type, and grade of this item. He could not see any other relevant information. “Do I have to become a Martial G.o.d to see the specific information of this item?”
Xiao Shi realized the reason why he could not see the information about this item. It was mainly because the grade of this item exceeded his current realm.
