Chapter 562: Azure God-Monarch (1/2)
Chapter 562: Azure G.o.d-Monarch
“A G.o.d-Monarch!” Some didn’t know who the Azure G.o.d-Monarch was, but this t.i.tle alone demanded respect and fear.
When a Virtuous Paragon began on the Path of the Grand Era, they still would not be considered powerful relative to the others in this realm. Only when they were able to erect their own countries or be bestowed a divine t.i.tle would they be considered formidable. However, if they were bestowed the t.i.tle of G.o.d-Monarch, then it would be even more amazing. These were great and terrifying Virtuous Paragons, so the world called them G.o.d-Monarchs.
Many people took a deep breath at this time; they felt as if they were inside a glacier. A person who was called a G.o.d-Monarch was actually lying inside the divine coffin — this was plenty enough to influence the outcome.
Even legendary masters had to be wary and retreat before such experts. Only generals under an Immortal Emperor would be able to compete against such an existence.
The royal lords and ghost kings who added oil to the fire were now s.h.i.+vering and almost wet themselves.
They tried to urge the throne of bones to destroy the Thousand Carp River, but now there was a G.o.d-Monarch at this place. Such an existence could destroy a sect or a country as if it was child’s play.
The ancestor inside the Ancestral Mountain went quiet for a moment before slowly speaking: “Excuse me, so it is the Sacred Ancestor. Who would expect that the inheritor of Immortal Emperor Qian Li was still in this world.”
At this time, even this legendary master had to withdraw his arrogance. Although he could sweep through all the ancestors of the great powers, he was still far too lacking compared to an existence of the G.o.d-Monarch level.
“The Sacred Ancestor of the Thousand Carp River is still alive? This is a mythical figure!” An ancestor remembered an old fossil-level character.
Another ancestor quivered and gasped: “The Azure G.o.d-Monarch is the Sacred Ancestor of the river sect. Legends state that he was the grand-disciple of Immortal Emperor Qian Li. The tales say that when the Sacred Ancestor was very young, he was personally taught by the emperor. During his teen years, he was brought along by the emperor as a leader of the cavalry in his army.”
“He was taught by Immortal Emperor Qian Li?” A group shuddered with fear after hearing this news.
This was indeed an old man that had lived for many years, an existence that once carried out military expeditions for the emperor. No matter what battle records he had, his existence itself was enough to show the Sacred Ancestor’s power.
The crowd trembled while thinking that such a heaven-defying existence was actually inside a divine coffin not too far away from them.
“No matter what, we demand justice since he killed our Myriad Bones Throne’s daughter-in-law!” The ancestor inside the ancestral mountain deepened his voice.
At this point, everyone held their breaths. No one could interrupt a conversation between these leaders. The ghost race didn’t dare to say a word or try to escalate this situation any further. They already removed any thoughts of taking advantage of the Thousand Carp River at this time.
Who would dare to scheme when there was a G.o.d-Monarch lying right there? Unless they were tired of living, no one would do so.
“How could there be enmity without a fateful causation? Love and hate, grat.i.tude and grudges, everything has a beginning and an end.” The feeble voice came from the coffin once more: “Let the youth settle their own matters, let their fists speak for justice. Victory or defeat will be decided by themselves; the loser can only lament their lack of skills!”
The Sacred Ancestor’s stance was very clear, and that was to let Li Qiye and Di Zuo fight without any interference from the Myriad Bones Throne. The outcome would be decided by their own strength and fortune.
The ancestor in the mountain went quiet for a bit before answering with a deep tone: “Very well, we’ll decide it like that!” He chose to proceed with a one-on-one because he had complete confidence in Di Zuo.
After the Myriad Bones Ancestor confirmed the situation, Di Zuo stood out and coldly spoke: “Come out and fight to the death!”
“It is a shame that you must fight. Well then, let’s fight.” Li Qiye replied and looked at Di Zuo with a smile.
He stepped in the air to fly to the sky. While watching Li Qiye ascend, Lan Yunzhu eagerly waited to spectate this battle. She was not worried at all about him since she had absolute confidence in Li Qiye. She knew that even Di Zuo wouldn’t do and that Li Qiye’s victory was a.s.sured.
Di Zuo quickly followed suit and stood proudly on top of the nine heavens. The two of them confronted each other with sharp glares.
“Boom!” With a blast, a surge of imperial aura pierced the firmament. With more explosions, three more imperial auras shot up to the sky as an endless radiance spread right behind Di Zuo like a fan.
