Chapter 561: The Storm Is Here (2/2)
The person inside the ancestral mountain didn’t show their face, but they already exuded a terrifying aura throughout the Water Realm. Everyone felt that there was an invincible existence inside. It was as if when this person looked down below his feet, the world would seem incredibly insignificant.
When this person’s words came out, everyone quivered in fear. Even the expressions of the ancestors from the great powers changed. This person’s breath even caused them to feel some pressure.
One of the ancestors exclaimed: “This is a legendary master! I wonder which ancestor from the Myriad Bones Throne came?”
This powerful aura caused everyone to be nervous. If this person took action, then no one would be able to stop him.
The old voice from the ancestral mountain was extremely tyrannical and didn’t put anyone in his eyes. “Li Qiye must die. If your Thousand Carp River wishes to stop us, then we’ll annihilate all of you!”
The ghost race became extremely excited. If it wasn’t for Di Zuo’s solemn expression, many of them would have jumped up and cheered.
One of them had a dark smile as he spoke: “The Myriad Bones Ancestor has spoken. Li Qiye will die for sure. Not even G.o.ds or immortals will be able to save him now!”
A wary ancestor gently sighed and said: “Whoever came amongst the Myriad Bones Ancestors is definitely a legendary master.”
The Myriad Bones Throne was a sect with three emperors. To the ancestors from the great powers, any of their ancestors would be enough to cause dread.
Behind Di Zuo was the backing of an ancestor, so the ghost race was quite optimistic. This was also the backing of the entire ghost race since the Myriad Bones Ancestor made his stance on the situation clear.
They a.s.sumed that Li Qiye would be dead for sure since he wouldn’t be able to stop a monstrous existence like the throne of bones.
“Kill Li Qiye! Let him atone with blood!” A ghost cultivator couldn’t help but shout: “There will be no good ending for someone who opposes the ghost race!”
“Hahaha, it’s not only Li Qiye, even the Thousand Carp River is scheming against the ghost race, so destroy the river sect as well!” A great ghost added fuel to the fire with a devious grin.
“I feel the same way. Leaving the Thousand Carp River alive is the same as raising a tiger in one’s house. How about everyone work together to attack the Thousand Carp River?” A royal lord added with a chuckle.
The royal lords and ghost kings didn’t dare to say it directly to the Myriad Bones Ancestor, so they hid in the crowd and fanned the flames.
Not to mention the large amount of treasures that the river sect was carrying right now, the Thousand Carp Lake alone had been l.u.s.ted after for countless years by the other great powers.
If the Myriad Bones Throne declared war against the river sect, then these great powers would escalate the situation and use this chance to take advantage of the turmoil.
Daoist Bao Gui was not surprised by the ghost race’s comments or the Myriad Bones Throne’s words. He clasped his hands together towards the Ancestral Mountain and said: “Dear Senior from the Myriad Bones Throne, I am a junior so I cannot decide on this grand matter. Senior can directly talk to our ancestor.” The Thousand Carp River’s elders then personally raised a divine coffin. This divine coffin was made from the best materials and was surrounded by Blood Era Stones that were stacked around it.
The quant.i.ty of this heap of Blood Era Stones on top of the coffin proved that the person inside had a great status. They were powerful to the point where they required many stones in order to seal time.
“Hmph! I wonder which ancestor from your Thousand Carp River came? How should I address you?” The ancestor inside the Ancestral Mountain still didn’t show his face, but he carried an imperious tone nevertheless.
He had the power and qualifications to speak in this manner. He was already a heaven-defying expert, and the world referred to people of his level as legendary masters.
The divine coffin sealed by many Blood Era Stones did not open its lid, and the ancestor inside did not come into being. A feeble voice came out from within: “I do not remember my own name.” The voice was not very loud, it sounded like a dying person speaking their last words: “Too much time has pa.s.sed, and I do not remember mundane matters anymore. I only remember that in that year, the world wanted to call me a G.o.d-Monarch, but I felt that my insignificant self was not worthy of the t.i.tle. Each time I remember the imperial presence of my ancestor, I felt so trivial that I didn’t dare to accept the t.i.tle of G.o.d-Monarch for the throne. If the world asks for my name, then you can call me the Azure G.o.d-Monarch.”
This whispering voice uttered shocking words. Those who knew the inside story were completely dumbfounded. The young cultivators who didn’t know who the Azure G.o.d-Monarch was asked: “Who is this Azure G.o.d-Monarch?”
