Chapter 1720: Departing (2/2)

“The Bi’an Beastworld!” Someone recognized this world and immediately shouted.

“One of the six Ancestral Earths! Shouldn’t it be in Stone Medicine, why is it here now?” People were perplexed at this sudden appearance. The great powers in Mortal Emperor became increasingly vigilant.

“This might be bad, another invasion?” A sect master became worried.

After the Soaring Immortal’s invasion, many great powers were still in anxiety. Some even planned for the worst and became prepared to fight against the beast world.

Fortunately, the beast world didn’t show any aggression after appearing. Everyone became relieved.

In the faraway immortal mine, the skinny crystal fowl woke up. It stood by the entrance and looked out at the direction of the beast world and murmured: “The tenth world… only emperors can go up there all along but now, the Dark Crow is bringing so many people, what is he going to do about the spatio-temporal barrier. Only an Epoch Wheel is capable of doing this but does such a thing still exist? Not even the Heavenly Corpse Burial Ground has one so what will the Dark Crow do?”

Even the crystal fowl couldn’t predict what Li Qiye will do to break the world barrier. However, he must be confident if he dared to bring so many people to the tenth world.

Because of this, the fowl said with a tinge of emotion: “This d.a.m.ned crow has too many unbelievable methods. So heaven-defying, after generations of planning and acc.u.mulation, no one can stop him outside of the high heaven. No wonder why even the corpse burial ground conceded. That’s some determination, daring to destroy that burial ground if it dared to oppose him. It’s a good thing we didn’t try to fight him or our mine would have been flipped over too. Both the chicken and the egg would have been broken at that point.”

It continued lamenting: “Being free must be nice. The beastworld has finally waited till this moment to settle the scores. It’s a shame that we’re still stuck here in the darkness. I guess we can only hope for the crow’s victory since the villainous heaven won’t spare us.”

Who didn’t want freedom in this world? However, their mine didn’t have any choice. It was either to hide in the immortal mine or face extinction.

In the past when the young nine sea kings snuck out, it naturally knew but turned a blind eye. It could understand the young ones’ desire to see the outside world. He was also aware of their struggle. Even if they were to sever their bloodline, the villainous heaven still wouldn’t spare them. The mark left by the heaven was impossible to be destroyed. Even a blood severing could only hide them temporarily.

Only by destroying the villainous heaven would the seal be destroyed as well. Of course, they didn’t have this opportunity. Thus, the fowl placed all hope on Li Qiye. He was the only one who had a chance for victory.

The fowl was truly envious of the beast world. Though both of them were Ancestral Earths, they were different in nature and this had decided their fate. The beast world could see the sunlight again while the mine couldn’t.

The beast world didn’t suffer the same seal from the villainous heaven. Thus, as long as the villainous heaven continued to exist, the mine wouldn’t have their freedom.

“d.a.m.ned crow, you were a blood-sucking vermin but you need to stay alive. Do it.” The fowl spoke: “You are shouldering the hope of so many to break the eternal chains. Their freedom depends on you. If you fail, how many more cycles and epochs will it take? Few people could make it to that step and even fewer had any chance of victory. In this epoch, you’re the only one. Don’t disappoint me since I have gambled everything on you.”

The fowl became absent-minded. After a while, it shook its head and was between laughters and tears: “How strange, an old geezer like me still gets so sentimental.”

1. This t.i.tle used to be Eternal Prime Emperor, but now that I think about it, Prime Emperor is more concise, it means he’s already the best of them all. The Eternal part seems unnecessary and only sounds better in Chinese. Let me know.
