Chapter 1093: Northbound (2/2)
“Kingdom of the Emperors?” The girls were intrigued by this t.i.tle. Li Shuangyan murmured: “What a domineering t.i.tle!”
“Because it really is that domineering!” Li Qiye leisurely responded: “At the Imperial Border, it can be considered the number one empire. No other kingdom can compare to it!”
“Number one!” Mei Suyao was surprised: “I’ve never seen any writings about this kind of empire in my sect.”
“Because your Eternal River School doesn’t know about it.” Li Qiye smiled: “Right now, there are three strong empires known to others, but there is still one that has slumbered for millions of years. It is understandable that no one knows about it.”
Mei Suyao pondered for a bit before stating: “Our records claim that once an empire reaches a certain level of power, they would embark on the Expedition Path.”
“I understand what you are saying.” Li Qiye gently nodded: “Your sect is correct about this. However, there are always exceptions. The Kingdom of Emperors isn’t the number one power throughout the history of the Imperial Border, but it is definitely among the top five. However, all the other extremely strong empires have embarked on the expedition while they remained here until now.”
“Are they sealed in this frozen world?” Bai Jianzhen, who was very sparing with her words, still asked.
Li Qiye glanced at this place and murmured: “Yes, right inside this frozen world.”
They continued forward and eventually stopped before a vast snow-capped mountain. It towered into the sky with no end in sight. It was practically piercing through the firmament.
Li Qiye stood before a straight cliff covered in ice. The ice slowly melted and revealed an inexplicable formation array underground.
“Buzz!” Several universal laws flew out from Li Qiye’s forehead and activated the formation.
“Boom!” An imperial momentum gushed up into the sky like a geyser in a ferocious and endless manner.
Li Qiye was like a whale drinking water. In just a split second, he immediately swallowed all of the momentum, resulting in a humming sound.
Blinding imperial lights emanated from his back. At this second, his appearance didn’t change, but something about his aura definitely did.
He resembled an Imperial King that sat above the nine layers of the heavens. Behind him were countless existences floating and prostrating. Among them were unreachable deities, but regardless of their own prestige, all were on their knees.
Such an image was too shocking. It was even more moving than the aura of Heaven Relinquish.
The girls couldn’t help but tremble while standing in front of Li Qiye who had transformed into an Imperial King. His powerful imperial momentum was too oppressive and gave others the urge to kneel.
At this time, he put on an imperial armor. It was the one given to him by the Eternal River ancestor, the same one that he had lost back then.
After adorning this outfit, only his eyes were visible, the rest of his body was wrapped in this imperial armor. [1. This might be the picture, I could be wrong. /images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSs9pgReNPKi17JnrkiQzlOLKVX5vPlerKom43_gIAO3UzSTGBH]
Not only was his aura heavenly and oppressive, others felt that he had become an emperor of war that had carried out expeditions all over the world!
‘The War Emperor fighting against myriad realms, he alone is invincible!’ This was the feeling that the girls got while looking at him right now.
“It looks like you were possessed by a War Emperor.” Chen Baojiao commented.
“I’m not possessed.” Li Qiye smiled with an invincible imperial momentum: “I am the War Emperor, the supreme grand ruler of the Kingdom of Emperors!”
With this declaration, his eyes turned serious. His entire being became extremely profound. Anyone would s.h.i.+ver if they looked at Li Qiye right now.
“Clank—” The sound of something heavy moving came about. When Li Qiye made a mudra with his hands and spewed out an eternal mantra, the entire snowy mountain slowly collapsed. A huge gate appeared before them.
At this time, the girls found out that this huge mountain wasn’t actually a mountain, it was a gigantic imperial citadel. However, it was sealed below the snow, so no one could see it fully.
He slowly walked into the city, his every step containing a particular rhythm. His steps slowly woke the entire city. The huge gate closed behind them to block off all prying eyes.
