Chapter 1391: Zhentian Coming Out (1/2)
Not everyone understood the undercurrents driving everything in the Bonesea. Some still couldn’t calm down and felt that something was amiss. Many began to think about leaving the area entirely.
“Meng Zhentian is leaving his cultivation.” To the dismay of the listeners, a certain piece of news spread through the continent. For many people, Zhentian was an unreachable character. Any news about him would spread like wildfire.
“Will Zhentian duel Li Qiye?” The charming spirits were the most excited with their eyes lighting up.
They couldn’t be blamed for having too much antic.i.p.ation. Li Qiye had been very fierce recently; he pushed down both the sea demons as well as their entire race, so they naturally wished that a charming spirit could take him down.
Many considered them to be the heaven’s favorites, so they had a sense of superiority and felt that they were stronger than the other races. Thus, the rise of a weak human left them with a sour taste!
A big shot from the previous generation commented: “It’ll come. Even if it isn’t today, them fighting is only a matter of time.”
Everyone who had experienced the previous battle knew that a fight between all the aspiring compet.i.tors would come regardless of how weak or powerful they were. There were only two results on this path for the throne; they would either become dried bones that pave the way or become the emperor.
The current situation was quite clear. Zhentian was an Era Evader, so he had an absolute advantage. There was no going back since he had come into being already, so he will fight to the very end!
At the same time, a monster like Li Qiye had never been afraid of anyone since he appeared at Heaven Spirit. Both G.o.ds and devils couldn’t deter someone as fierce as him who was destined to reach the end as well.
For the two of them, the result was either Li Qiye dying or Zhentian dying! Only one will remain standing.
“The charming spirits shall have an Immortal Emperor in this generation!” A charming spirit applauded his own race and Zhentian.
In fact, all the older characters from this race wanted for Zhentian to become emperor. They haven’t had one for a long time. If they still couldn’t produce one in the next one or two generations, they would no longer live up to their fame of being the heavens’ favorites. If he were to become emperor, it would justify their fame!
“The Heaven Suppressing Legion is searching for Li Qiye!” Another piece of news traveled across the continent amidst all the speculations.
“It’s coming now. The winner will finally be revealed.” Many trembled after receiving this information.
The changes in the Bonesea made people want to leave, but now, they decided to stick around and watch. No one could bear to leave when a fight for the throne was about to happen. They would feel regret for the rest of their lives!
Someone excitedly exclaimed: “This generation really is different. The Heaven’s Will has yet to appear, yet the candidates have begun fighting already. When the compet.i.tion formalizes, all the geniuses in the nine worlds will fight to the death!”
“His legion has finally found Li Qiye’s bones.h.i.+p, but Li Qiye isn’t there. Only the two schoolmasters from Void Imperfection are on board!” One more message arrived with haste.
“Don’t tell me Li Qiye is afraid?” People exchanged glances upon learning about his disappearance. A charming spirit even sneered.
A second message quickly spread right after: Liu Ruyan and Zhuo Jians.h.i.+ were fighting against Zhentian’s legion.
People rushed over in droves after hearing this in order to see how this storm would end. The fight was in full swing with both sides unwilling to be outdone.
At the same time, a carriage being pulled by a golden bird stopped outside of the battlefield right next to the other spectators.
The driver was the famous Crimsonflame Ancestor of the Treant Race, a Grand G.o.dking that had once deterred the entire world. Alas, he was now a simple driver and had a respectful expression on his face.
