Chapter 2582: Why Leave?
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
In the starry sky, more than two thousand stars, including Guzhou Star, kept moving under the siege of the Taiyi Stars Grand Array. Their speed was almost as fast as the speed of one from the True G.o.d Realm.
Under the fierce attack, the powerful strength made it impossible for those stars to stabilize.
Rumble~~~
The deafening attacks rang constantly, spreading across galaxies in all directions.
The strong fighters from the three major Tribes together with the Heavenly Palace formed a dozen Integrated Arrays, constantly attacking the Taiyi Stars Grand Array.
Super strong fighters, such as the Gu Sha Demon Emperor and the Immortal Emperor, fought individually.
Under these powerful attacks, the Taiyi Stars Grand Array kept shaking as its power was being consumed continuously.
However, judging from the current situation, the large formation would not be broken within three to five days.
In the far end of s.p.a.ce, other forces were watching from a distance.
The Sky Tyrant Tribe, the Cosmic Tribe, and even the Dragon Tribe were scattered everywhere as each kept watch on the development.
“Emperor, this Su Mo is most wicked. He has enslaved our people. Do we really just stand by and watch?”
A group of a dozen strong fighters of the Sky Tyrant Tribe stood far away as they watched the battle unfold. Young Master Ba Yun spoke of the injustice as he stood behind the Sky Tyrant Emperor.
The Sky Tyrant Emperor was the authority figure of the Sky Tyrant Court. He looked like a middle-aged man at five feet tall and with a strong body, and he wore a short black garment made of animal skin, showing off his muscular body.
His face was covered with steel, needle-like beard hairs, making him look more like a hunter than an emperor.
“They have lifted their Slavery Seal. I considered that as giving me their due respect, so we shall not intervene in this matter!” said the Sky Tyrant Emperor. When they came to this universe, they learned that the Sky Tyrants in the G.o.d’s Path used to be slaves of the Firmament Palace.
This incident also made him angry but, considering the overall situation, he did not act rashly.
Initially, he wanted to give Di Yihun a hand too, otherwise he would not have allowed disciples of the Sky Tyrant Tribe to fight against Su Mo during the Thousand Selection fight. But after listening to the Chaotic Lord, he chose to remain neutral.
A while ago, the Chaotic Lord had paid him a personal visit. They discussed in secret and he was eventually convinced.
“Su Mo’s quite lucky. If it weren’t for the Chaotic Tribe’s full protection, he’d be long dead!” Young Master Ba Yun said gloomily. He was rooting for Di Yihun, but the emperor chose to watch by the sidelines, and there was nothing he could do about it.
“Perhaps Su Mo can turn this around. Let’s wait and see!” said the Sky Tyrant Emperor.
On the other side of s.p.a.ce were the Dragon Tribe. The dozen or so were led by Tun Xu Dragon Emperor.
Other than him, other higher echelons of the Dragon Tribe included Grand Elder Long Chang, Second Elder Long Bai, and Long Teng.
“Dragon Emperor, if we don’t intervene, the Chaotic Tribe might not last a few more days!” said Long Chang. He knew about Su Mo’s capabilities and naturally inclined to help him, but the Tun Xu Dragon Emperor disagreed.
“Long Chang, what benefits have Su Mo promised you to earn your confidence?” Dressed in a golden imperial robe, Tun Xu Dragon Emperor stood with his hands behind his back, looking as cold as frost.
He could tell Long Chang had changed a lot during this short period of time. His skills must have improved.
But Long Chang was an Advanced Supreme Being whose training was not weaker than his, so he was unable to make out the truth.
“None at all. It’s just that Su Mo’s potential is far greater than Di Yihun’s. There’s no harm in helping him!” Long Chang shook his head. Of course he would not sell out Su Mo to the Dragon Emperor.
“Is that so?” the Tun Xu Dragon Emperor’s eyes glimmered with a flash of coldness. He did not believe Long Chang at all.
That was because Long Chang was Similar to Ren De and the Ultimate Supreme Being. They were all quite close to Su Mo. The other two had shown an improvement in their skills, which meant Long Chang would as well. Su Mo had to be the reason behind this.
“If you don’t help Su Mo now, don’t regret later!” Long Chang sighed. His skills now was no longer weaker than that of the Dragon Emperor, but he still could not command the Dragon Tribe. He could only sigh at the Emperor’s decision.
“Needless to say, if Su Mo shows much more potential than Di Yihun in the days to come, I’ll gladly a.s.sist him!” the Tun Xu Dragon Emperor said.
Long Chang could only nod to the Emperor’s words. He stopped arguing.
Long Teng remained silent as his peered at the Tun Xu Dragon Emperor with little expression on his face.
Had Su Mo not shown enough potential yet?
The Emperor was obviously looking for excuses and never truly wanted to help Su Mo.
In this regard, Long Teng would not fight for it, because it was useless anyway. He had already discussed with Longchang. If the large array was broken through, Longchang would rescue Su Mo immediately, or at least prevent the three major Tribes from capturing him.
Rumble~~~
The booming roar kept ringing in the sky like it could go on forever. The three major Tribes were really attacking with great force.
They knew clearly that the Taiyi Stars Grand Array would not last long. They gave it a week before the two thousand stars would run out of Purple Energy.
By then, the support of external forces alone would not be enough to maintain the power of the large array.
So, all they had to do was carry on. It was only a matter of time for the Taiyi Stars Grand Array to break.
Right then, the Netherworld Emperor stopped what he was doing. With a flip of his palm, he retrieved a Communication Seal.
With his divine thoughts, he listened to the message, and then he glared.
Swoos.h.!.+
In a flash, he appeared before the Immortal Emperor, and conveyed a message to Gu Sha Demon Emperor at the same time.
When Gu Sha Demon Emperor heard that, he shrank in size and flew towards the other two.
“What?” he questioned doubtfully.
“The s.p.a.ce-Time City has been found!” the Netherworld Emperor told them with his mind. This was major news, so he dared not speak out loud.
“Oh, where?” Gu Sha Demon Emperor asked, his dark demonic eyes flaring.
“At the marginal zone of the G.o.d Region, in a galaxy not far away from the Dark Region,” the Netherworld Emperor replied.
“We must get it. But what about here? Do we continue our attack or retreat for now?” the Immortal Emperor paused and messaged the two. Since the s.p.a.ce-Time City had been found, there was actually no need to fight the Chaotic Tribe anymore.
After all, with the s.p.a.ce-Time City and no shortage of resources, Di Yihun would become an Advanced Supreme Being, or even a Xeon, very quickly. So, they really did not have to keep fighting the Chaotic Tribe.
Once Di Yihun became more powerful, all would be resolved.
“I think we should retreat and get the s.p.a.ce-Time City first!” the Netherworld Emperor sent another message. The s.p.a.ce-Time City was of utmost importance. Not only could it change the flow of time but, more importantly, it was the way out of the Wasteland, though it was not guaranteed.
“If we retreat, the Chaotic Lord might find out and compete for the s.p.a.ce-Time City!”
Gu Sha Demon Emperor paused, then he glanced at the Netherworld Emperor and said, “How’s this? Helan Yu and I shall go retrieve the s.p.a.ce-Time City, while you and the others stay here and attack the array.”
Helan Yu was the Immortal Emperor’s real name.
“That’s good!” the two nodded. So the two of them would head out to get the s.p.a.ce-Time City, while the others stayed there to hold up the Chaotic Tribe.
As for why two people were required for this mission, that was because they feared other forces, such as the Dragon Tribe or the Sky Tyrant Tribe, could have discovered the s.p.a.ce-Time City as well. One person alone could not possibly deal with all of them.
And so, Gu Sha Demon Emperor and the Immortal Emperor quickly left their location and sped towards the G.o.d Region.
The other strong fighters of the three major Tribes and the Heavenly Palace were curious to see them leave.
“They’ll be back soon, but we have to keep attacking the array!” the Netherworld Emperor called out, and then he continued his violent attacks.
The people had questions but they refrained from asking as they continued their attacks.
Without Gu Sha Demon Emperor and the Immortal Emperor, their attack power dwindled. They could no longer shake up the Taiyi Stars Grand Array.
“Strange!” On Guzhou Star, those of the Firmament Palace, the Chaotic Tribe, the Human Palace, and even the Ultimate Supreme Being Palace found the situation quite odd. They wondered why Gu Sha Demon Emperor and the Immortal Emperor had suddenly left.
Su Mo opened his eyes and gazed at the starry sky. He might have been training, but he had always been keeping an eye on the outside world.
Swoos.h.!.+
In a flash, the Chaotic Lord appeared next to him.
He did not have to support the Taiyi Stars Grand Array anymore, because Gu Sha Demon Emperor and the Immortal Emperor had left. The rest who stayed could not possibly break through.
“Sir, what’s the meaning of this?” Su Mo asked. Gu Sha Demon Emperor and the Immortal Emperor could not have left without reason. Something must have happened.
“Not sure!” the Chaotic Lord shook his head. For a moment, he did not know what had caused the two to leave in a rush.
“Since they’ve gone, it’s time for us to strike!” Su Mo said. He believed that, with their current strength, they were definitely not weaker than those outside.
Now was the time to retaliate and defeat them.
“Alright, then I’ll go for the kill, and let blood rain from the sky!” the Chaotic Lord’s eyes grew cold. With his current strength, almost no one could stop him.
Before fusing with the Unbeatable Power Primordial Spirit, only Gu Sha Demon Emperor in the entire Wasteland could compete with him. Now that he had improved a lot, and Gu Sha Demon Emperor was out of the picture, even the number of Supreme Beings left behind would face utter defeat.
“All the best to you!” Su Mo nodded.
