Chapter 546: The Patience of Grand Emperor Igneous

“Divine King Bemond?”
Lin Feng was slightly stunned. He looked at the huge palm. Divine King Bemond had saved him?
“Divine King Qingguang, you’re a dignified Divine King, yet you attacked a junior. Aren’t you ashamed?”
“Hmph, Divine King Bemond, all these Grand Emperors are juniors. Why should I feel ashamed in a fair compet.i.tion for opportunities?”
“Divine King Qinguang, don’t you know that the Grand Emperor of Annihilation you wanted to kill is a disciple of my Divine Palace of Bemond?”
!!
“Oh? Your Divine Palace of Bemond really had a huge gain then. Forget it. Since Divine King Bemond has spoken, I won’t fight with these juniors.”
The cosmos fell silent. Then, the two huge palms disappeared, as if they had never existed. However, the shattered cosmos served as a constant reminder to all cultivators that everything that just happened was real.
“Lin Feng, leave quickly. It’s best if you leave the Big Bang. The range of this Big Bang is very wide. Many old fellows are here. Even if it’s the fifth wave of the Big Bang, the Divine Kings may interfere.”
Divine King Bemond’s voice suddenly entered Lin Feng’s ears. Lin Feng knew that Divine King Bemond had sent him a voice transmission to remind him of the danger here.
Actually, even without Divine King Bemond’s reminder, Lin Feng did not intend to continue partic.i.p.ating. It was too dangerous. Even without the Divine King, he was not a match for a top-notch Grand Emperor like Grand Emperor Universum, let alone when a Divine King interfered.
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
Lin Feng was also inwardly grateful. Divine King Bemond did not usually interfere, but once he did, it was critical. He had saved Lin Feng’s life.
Afterwards, Lin Feng no longer hesitated and warped s.p.a.ce to leave.
Swoosh.
Lin Feng warped a few times in succession before finally exiting the area of the fifth wave of the Big Bang. It was tens of thousands of light-years. Even if Lin Feng warped at full speed, he would still need to warp several times before he could leave completely.
“Grand Emperor of Annihilation, how are you?”
Seeing Lin Feng appear, Grand Emperor Scorpius hurriedly came to him.
“Just now, I saw a huge palm that almost enveloped half the wave area. It’s simply terrifying. A Divine King must have attacked, right?”
Lin Feng smiled weakly and nodded. “That’s right. A Divine King attacked. It’s Divine King Qingguang! Moreover, I was very unlucky. Divine King Qingguang’s goal was the new substance I obtained.”
“What?”
Scorpius was shocked. A Divine King had actually attacked Lin Feng, so how did Lin Feng escape? That palm just now was too terrifying. Even if Lin Feng used spatial warp, he could travel hundreds of light-years at a time at most, but that palm covered a terrifying range of thousands of light-years.
With a single palm strike, everything would be reduced to dust. Lin Feng had nowhere to run.
“It was Divine King Bemond of our Divine Palace of Bemond who helped. That’s how I survived.”
“Divine King Bemond?”
Grand Emperor Scorpius nodded. With Divine King Bemond’s interference, Lin Feng would naturally be safe.
“Fortunately, the Divine King was there. However, this place is too dangerous. Look, even the Grand Emperors have left one after another. The sixth, seventh, and up until the ninth wave will all be the battlefield of the Divine Kings.”
Actually, the battlefield of the Divine Kings would only start from the seventh wave onwards. After all, even the sixth wave could only cover an area of about 100,000 light-years. It could only accommodate one Divine King’s combat body completely.
However, the Divine Kings had already intervened in the fifth wave, let alone the sixth. The battlefield of the Grand Emperors had actually ended in advance.
“That’s right. Our battlefield is over. What are Grand Emperor Scorpius’s plans next?”
“Me? Of course I’ll return to the North River Galaxy to properly consume the spoils of war this time. After I’ve completely consumed them, my strength will definitely increase substantially!”
Grand Emperor Scorpius appeared very confident, but at the same time, he was very happy. His gains this time were indeed huge, mainly because he had joined forces with Lin Feng. Otherwise, he probably wouldn’t have gained much by himself.
“I’m going to return to the Divine Palace of Bemond first, but I still have to ask Grand Emperor Scorpius for a favor.”
“Grand Emperor of Annihilation, feel free to speak.”
“Grand Emperor Scorpius has many friends. Please help me to keep an eye out for Grand Emperor Igneous.”
Grand Emperor Igneous was a hidden threat. Just because he had disappeared without a trace now did not mean that he had really disappeared for good. He might be plotting something in secret.
Being targeted by a Grand Emperor while the other party hiding in the dark was not a good thing.
“No problem. Speaking of which, Grand Emperor Igneous probably hates me too. Of course we have to find him! Once I have any news on him, I’ll inform Grand Emperor of Annihilation immediately.”
Grand Emperor Scorpius also felt that Grand Emperor Igneous was very dangerous. He was hiding in the dark, and no one knew what Grand Emperor Igneous was plotting. If one became mortal enemies with a Grand Emperor, they had to kill him at all costs. Otherwise, if they had to always remain on guard, oversights were inevitable, and the consequences would be unthinkable.
“Thank you, Grand Emperor Scorpius!”
Lin Feng and Grand Emperor Scorpius looked at each other and smiled. Then, Grand Emperor Scorpius left.
Lin Feng glanced at the mighty tides of the Big Bang in the distance. The fifth wave of the Big Bang had not ended yet, but to Lin Feng, this Big Bang was actually already over.
As for the remaining battles in the Big Bang, no matter how precious the new substances were, they had nothing to do with Lin Feng anymore.
“Next time, if there’s a next time, I’ll sweep through all nine waves of the Big Bang!”
A bold thought flashed through Lin Feng’s mind. If he really waited until the next Big Bang, it would be billions of years.
Hence, Lin Feng’s Void Traversal Combat Body immediately traversed s.p.a.ce and warped towards the Bemond Galaxy.
…
In the cold and pitch-black cosmos, a huge planet spun slowly.
There was no other planet around this huge planet. It was just a lonely planet. It was cold, dark, and did not even have the aura of life.
Swoosh.
After an unknown period of time, a figure descended on the planet.
“Guxi, we suffered a crushing defeat this time. You even lost your life.”
This figure was Grand Emperor Igneous. He seemed to be reminiscing all the happenings in his friendship with Grand Emperor Guxi back then. It was rumored that the two of them were close. In reality, they had already known each other back when they had yet to become planetary lifeforms.
They roamed the universe together and metamorphosed into planetary lifeforms together. Guxi had a fiery temper and was p.r.o.ne to offending people. He had suffered many hardships in the past. However, Guxi appeared to be very lucky as well. He could often turn misfortunes into blessings and obtain many benefits.
In comparison, Grand Emperor Igneous was very ordinary. He cultivated quietly, and his speed was far slower than Grand Emperor Guxi. Grand Emperor Guxi gifted many of the resources he obtained to Grand Emperor Igneous.
Grand Emperor Igneous would never have attained his current achievements without Grand Emperor Guxi!
Unfortunately, Grand Emperor Guxi was dead. He had died at the hands of the Grand Emperor of Annihilation, Lin Feng.
“Guxi, I’ve long advised you to rein in your fiery temper, yet you never listened. I knew that this day would come sooner or later, but I’ll definitely avenge you. The Law of s.p.a.ce… I need an artifice that seals s.p.a.ce. I’m not strong enough either, so I’ll have to ask someone else to take action…”
Grand Emperor Igneous’s expression was composed. Even though Grand Emperor Guxi was dead, even though his lifelong friend of billions of years was dead, he was still very composed. Yet, there was a monstrous killing intent in his composure.
However, he was not in a hurry. The life of a Grand Emperor was infinite. He would not rush headlong into revenge. The pa.s.sage of time was long. He needed to plan slowly. Ten years, a hundred years, or even a thousand or ten thousand years were nothing.
Even if it took billions of years to make a plan, it was worth it as long as he could kill his enemy. Patience was the last thing Grand Emperor Igneous lacked!
