Chapter 296 - Unveiled! (1/2)
”Who dares?!” Fei Jin Fang bellowed out in rage as his aura exploded on the spot, unleashing the might of a true Nascent Soul realm expert at the Pinnacle stage!
To think that someone dared to humiliate his Emperor like that when he was tasked to guard the Emperor's dignity and honor..
That was a direct slap to his face!
Unforgivable!!
Kacha! Kacha!
The ground quaked as the air seethed incessantly, while the floor tiles began to crack one after another!
The crowd that did not practice cultivation was immediately pressed onto the ground firmly by this invisible pressure, causing them to cry out in panic!
In fact, this pressure was so great that even cultivators alike found the air around them to be extremely heavy that it was hard for them to move, such that only those above the Core Formation realm could remain standing properly, albeit the overbearing sensation made their breathing a little haggard.
It was as the saying goes, ”When the weather is nice, everyone will smile. But when the sky is angry, even the earth will tremble!”
The Emperor extended his Soul Sense to scan everyone, and after finding that the location of the voice was not within the masses, his brows furrowed together.
”Who is out there? Come out.” the Emperor said with an indifferent voice, unleashing his own presence as well as he stood up from his throne.
Brrr!!
As of this moment, it was as if the previous peaceful atmosphere was suddenly turned into that of a battlefield during war!
Do you think that you can hide from me forever after mocking me like that?
The resounding laughter from before once again echoed in their surroundings.
”Hmph! Your filthy eyes are not worthy enough to bask upon my existence.” the voice said haughtily.
Hearing this, Fei Jin Fang gritted his teeth and bellowed out once more, ”Damn it! If you have the b*lls to say such garbage to the Emperor, why don't you show yourself you coward!”
”Come out you bastard!” the other Titled Knights in golden armors also roared out as they each brandished their silver sword, looking for the person that was courting death!
Each of them were peerless experts and talented geniuses with backstories that could be compiled into story books for the children, and they weren't afraid of anything that dared to sully the Emperor and the royal family!
The voice was about to boast once more but went silent for a while after his words were drowned amidst the constant curse and slur words being thrown out by Fei Jin Fang and the lot like a pack of barbaric savages and hoodlums.
Unable to hold himself any further, an annoyed snort could be heard.
”Ants, know your place!” the voice harrumphed.
BOOMM!!
As if the whole sky was falling apart, a tremendous aura poured down onto the masses below, causing everyone to spurt out blood!
Psshh!!
The felt as though they were being submerged into the extreme depths of the ocean, where the tremendous pressure caused their lungs to rupture and blood to seep out from their mouth!
Accompanied by this disdainful snort was an immeasureable force that pressed Fei Jin Fang and the other Titled Knights onto the ground, such that they could no longer stand on their two feet and was forced to kneel!
Crack!
”Arghh!!” Fei Jin Fang and his subordinates gritted their teeth as they felt a few of their ribs began to shatter one by one when they tried to forcefully stand up!
It felt as though a giant mountain was sitting right on top of their head, and no matter what means they used to stand up, they couldn't even budge an inch!
Seeing this, the Emperor widened his eyes in shock!
One has to know that Fei Jin Fang and his realm were both equal, and although he has more formidable skill arts to gain the upper hand in battle being the Emperor, in terms of presence, the other party was not any lesser than him!
Yet, Fei Jin Fang was still forced to kneel before the voice's presence!
What does this mean?
This means that the owner of the voice has an ever higher cultivation realm than them!
”It cannot be... an Immortal?” the Emperor thought in his mind as his face changed color.
Above the Nascent Soul realm Pinnacle stage was the Immortal Ascension realm, where one had successfully undo the first shackle of a mortal, thus known as the Escaping mortality realm!
”But how can that be? I thought that no Immortal should be able to exist on the Tian continent!” He thought with a grim expression.
According to Duan Li's hypothesis that he heard before, the Tian continent does not allow one to ascend beyond the Nascent Soul realm Pinnacle stage in their cultivation.
To do that, one has to go to another dimensional plane where the law does not apply, and the Eternal Maze was one of this place!
However, if Nascent Soul realm experts were to enter the Eternal Maze, then they would have to face insurmountable trial to ascend to immortality! Even if they were successful, unless one managed to cultivate all the way to the Omnipresence realm state, then one will never have the chance to step foot in the Tian continent again!
Upon recalling this, the Emperor's expression turned more pale.
This person must be of the Omnipresence realm state!
”Every single one of you is but an ant, if not for the laws in place, I would have massacred you all with a single breath of mine!” the voice spoke out with an overbearing tone.
”However, do not test my patience. Even the heavens will not be able to help you today should you continue to draw upon my wrath!” the voice continued.
While everyone was trying to find the source of the voice, Duan Li has already locked his eyes to the person in question.
It was the very same figure that was floating above them right now with his hands clasped behind his back!
His aura appeared to be extremely lofty and he donned a peculiar white robe, as if belonging to a certain bizarre cult somewhere.
