Chapter 1264: Emperor Clans’s Trump Card
As Lu Xuan spoke, he ripped open the void with both hands. A giant crack that was thousands of kilometers long appeared in the s.p.a.ce, above the Heavenly Court.
Instantly, the s.p.a.ce rippled and shook the entire Heavenly Court.
“What is that? A s.p.a.ce crack?”
“Enemy attack!”
“An enemy invasion!”
Instantly, all the Immortal Kings and Great Golden Immortals in the Heavenly Court were alarmed. They thought that an external enemy had invaded and directly charged into the headquarters of the Heavenly Court from the Endless World.
Although doing so was no different from courting death, there was still a possibility.
However, when they saw a figure in an imperial robe standing above the rift, who else could it be but Lu Xuan.
After that, they saw that the Ancestral Land of a family was on the other side of the crack.
Did any of the Immortal Kings who were familiar with it recognize this place?
“Isn’t that the Ancestral Land of the Dongfang Family?”
An Immortal King spoke. The origin of that place; he suddenly seemed to have thought of something and instantly shut his mouth.
It wasn’t just him. Almost everyone had thought of this at the first instant. During this period, Emperor Clan’s soft resistance to Lu Xuan’s rule clearly showed that they didn’t give any face to him. Among them, Dongfang Family was the leader.
The Dongfang Family was a family that produced Imperial Emperors. They were ranked first among the ten great Imperial Emperors and were known as the Dongfang Heavenly Emperor.
To dare to use the name of the Heavenly Emperor and not be killed, one could imagine how powerful this Dongfang Heavenly Emperor was.
Even people claimed that among the Imperial Emperors of the World Of Realms, even if Dongfang Heavenly Emperor was not ranked first, he was still a powerful existence that could be ranked in the top few.
To rank so high among the Imperial Emperors of the World Of Realms, one could imagine how powerful he was. He was far more powerful than the Golden Dragon Emperor and the Golden Lion Emperor that Lu Xuan had killed previously.
They were not on the same level at all. During ancient times, he was also a famous Battle G.o.d-level figure in the Heavenly Court. To cut through several worlds by himself was not a joke.
Hence, among the many Emperor Clans, the Dongfang Family was the leader!
Now, the Clan Leaders of the various Family Clans had all gathered at the Dongfang Family. This was something that everyone knew. Everyone was waiting for Lu Xuan’s att.i.tude.
Did he mutually agree that the Emperor Clans were independent, or would he kill them and become enemies with the Emperor Clans?
Now, it was finally time for a direct confrontation!
On the other side of the crack, numerous figures soared into the air in the Dongfang Family’s ancestral land. Each of them was a mighty Immortal King, and they were as brilliant as shooting stars.
Even if they were facing Lu Xuan, they still dared to confront him from afar.
“Not just the Dongfang Family, but also the Chen Family, Li Family, Sacred Beast Sect, and many other Emperor Clans!” An Immortal King recognized these figures. Each and every one of them was highly famous.
Perhaps these people weren’t Lu Xuan’s match even if they added up. However, the family behind them, as well as the Imperial Emperors who stood behind them, were the actual terrifying pressure.
“Emperor Lu has arrived. Excuse us for not welcoming you in time!”
The Clan Leader of the Dongfang Family, Immortal King Dongfang, held his hand and bowed in the void as he spoke.
In the face of an Imperial Emperor, no one could be disrespectful. Even the Clan Leader of the Dongfang Family was no exception.
Otherwise, even the Dongfang Heavenly Emperor would not support him.
The dignity of an Imperial Emperor was not to be insulted.
“I wonder why Emperor Lu is here?” Immortal King Dongfang asked.
“I’m sure you all know why I’m here!” Lu Xuan said, “I’ll get straight to the point. As the saying goes, one would not visit the three treasures palace for no reason. I’m here for an answer. Hand over the name list of experts above the Golden Immortal Realm and submit to the Heavenly Court. Otherwise, die!”
When Lu Xuan said the word ‘Die,’ everyone felt a chill on their backs. It was as if the word had taken away all the vitality in the world in an instant.
The words of an Imperial Emperor Expert were just that terrifying.
“This is something that we can never do. I hope that Emperor Lu won’t force us. In the future, won’t Emperor Lu also have to form an Emperor Clan? Why does the matter need to go to such an extent?” Immortal King Dongfang said. “May Emperor Lu give some face on account of our family’s Great Ancestor!”
“Give some face to your Great Ancestor?” Lu Xuan’s lips curled into a cold smile. “If the Dongfang Heavenly Emperor were here, I wouldn’t mind giving him some face. However, if it’s just a few of you, you are not qualified to make me give you all a face. Today, I want a result. Hand it over or not?”
Lu Xuan could see through their intentions. They were trying to use the power of their Geat Ancestors and force Lu Xuan to back off?
However, it was a pity that Lu Xuan was not the kind of person who would be easily swayed!
Even if he faced an Imperial Emperor like Dongfang Heavenly Emperor, who was definitely one of the top three powerful Imperial Emperors, he was not afraid.
Not to mention that Dongfang Heavenly Emperor could not return now. Even if he could return, he would not be afraid. At the very least, he would be able to protect himself.
After some time, after he digested the Creator’s Divine Pill, his cultivation base would only be higher than the Dongfang Heavenly Emperor, and he would become the number one expert in the world. There wouldn’t be anything to be afraid of.
“Then don’t blame us for being impolite. Emperor Lu, please!”
The Immortal King Dongfang gritted his teeth as he spoke. To say such words in front of an Imperial Emperors undoubtedly took a lot of courage.
As he spoke, Immortal King Dongfang formed a hand seal. A powerful incense burning gushed forth, creating a middle-aged man in imperial robes in the air.
The moment this middle-aged man appeared, his aura shook the entire world. The whole void was under his control.
“Dongfang Heavenly Emperor, it’s the Dongfang Heavenly Emperor!”
Many people exclaimed in shock. This was the imprint of the Dongfang Heavenly Emperor. Although it was only an imprint, under the support of the incense burning will, it possessed a terrifying aura comparable to an Imperial Emperor.
Following that, after the Dongfang Heavenly Emperor, a few more phantoms appeared. Each of them possessed an immense pressure comparable to that of an Imperial Emperor. It was extremely terrifying.
Everyone saw it clearly. They even stopped breathing. Those phantoms each had an extremely excellent reputation — the ten great Imperial Emperors.
These were a few of the ten great Imperial Emperors. Their imprints in the Heavenly Path had been activated by the incense’s willpower.
They had resurrected entirely!
This was clearly the method used by these Emperor Clans to contend against Lu Xuan. And this Heavenly Emperor Dongfang was clearly much more powerful than the Rock Emperor. The Rock Emperor was most at the middle stage of the Imperial Emperor Realm, but the Heavenly Emperor Dongfang had already half a foot into the Celestial Lord Realm expert. He could also be ranked in the top three experts on the Celestial Lord’s waiting list.
They were not even on the same level!
The most apparent difference was that after the Rock Emperor’s mark was revived, even with the blessing of the incense stick’s willpower, it was only infinitely close to the combat strength of an Imperial Emperor.
On the other hand, the Heavenly Emperor Dongfang’s revived mark was the genuine combat strength of an Imperial Emperor.
Although it was only at the initial stage of the Imperial Emperor Realm, there was still a fundamental difference from the Rock Emperor’s mark.
They can’t possibly be compared.
