Chapter 905 - Dissension and Discord (1/2)

Even though he carefully backed away, trying his best to not expose himself, the five Imperial Emperors still noticed his movements. Their eyes instantly locked onto Zhong Yue and the pressure they emitted caused Zhong Yue to tense up in nervousness.

He was already being locked onto by these Imperial Emperors!

The gate was just behind him and with just a step, he would be freed from this situation!

But just this step was extremely precarious as one reckless move would cause him to be the target of a joint attack from Imperial Emperors!

And if that happened, an apocalypse would descend onto the Heaven Suppression Fortress!

After the struggles he went through in building Heaven Suppression Fortress, he just couldn't bring himself to see it destroyed just like that!

Sweat started to drip down his forehead and he immediately notified Fu Qizhi and Fu Yanshan to back off along with the gods under his command.

Tensed!

An unbelievable tension!

The five Imperial Emperors' presence were overwhelming and with them acknowledging each other as Dao brothers, their strength was undoubtedly powerful, hence, when their attention was focused onto Zhong Yue, the pressure they gave him was beyond imagination.

Previously, Zhong Yue only managed to cover the alluring scent with many layers of protection; first, he placed the Hundredth Reincarnated Amaryllis inside the Six Paths Bead that sealed Fu Shang away, then he used the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror as the second layer of protection and the copper lantern as the third.

Without the alluring scent, the five Imperial Emperors were still able to control themselves and refrain themselves from robbing Zhong Yue in public. But with the scent spread all over right now, the situation turned quickly turned sour.

"Mister Yi, after some considerations, I think its better that you hand over the saint herb right now."

The "second brother" spoke in a sore and trembling tone, "Only the capable ones are qualified to possess such items and I'm afraid you are not capable enough…."

"This scent, I can see myself becoming a monarch after consuming it…."

An Imperial Emperor whose face was covered in divine rays walked on the Star River and approached Zhong Yue while murmuring, "The saint herb could help me realize my dream,! No matter how much I cultivated, I just couldn't ascend to Heavenly Monarch and now, the chance to become one is right before me! Give me the herb right now!"

His voice emitted shockwaves and the Star River waved vigorously under the shockwaves.

Another Imperial Emperor covered in divine rays also murmured, "I, too, saw the vision you see. I saw myself becoming a Heavenly Monarch, gods bowing before me, worshipping me and bestowing me with glory and honor! And I, I will shine brightly and make a name for myself that will last for eternity…."

"I want it! Give it to me!" shouted the fifth Imperial Emperor as he walked towards Zhong Yue with his arms stretched out.

Zhong Yue moved an inch and right away, the presence of the Imperial Emperors squizzed the air around him and he didn't dare to move recklessly anymore.

"I only have one and there are five of you."

Zhong Yue forced out a smile, "How are you going to split it?"

"Hand it over first and we shall decide!" shouted the Imperial Emperors in sync.

Long Zhi's nine faces were all twisted and she giggled, "Little Yi, we all know that you are a cunning and dangerous person. But I must say that you really are optimistic if you plan to form a crack in our relationships with each other! We've been through a lot, stood before the gate of death together and we've known each other for years! Just give us the saint herb right now!"

"Okay!"

Zhong Yue shouted suddenly and took out a divine cauldron, which emitted abnormally fragrant scent. Right away, the cauldron caught the Imperial Emperors' attention and without a sign, Zhong Yue hurled it towards the Heavenly River as he shouted, "There you go!"

The Imperial Emperors acted instantly; they all charged towards the cauldron and one of them managed to grab onto the cauldron first but just as he wanted to keep it away, another few hands were also onto the cauldron.

Krong—

A serious of explosion occurred; the Imperial Emperors each launched an attack at each other and the impact from their clashes shattered the divine ray shrouding them, exposing their real appearances.

At the same time, Zhong Yue backed off immediately, charging right into the Star Gate. In the next moment, Zhong Yue got out of the Astral Door at the center of the Heaven Suppression Fortress and charged towards the ancient ship from the Dark Age.

Above the river, the five Imperial Emperors looked at each other, each with a gloomy expression and their hands were grabbing onto the cauldron firmly.

This cauldron was the Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace forged by Zhong Yue using the power of the gods and the 28 Heavens, which raised it to the level of a Deity Overlord but still, it was nothing more than a toy before these Imperial Emperors.

"Brothers and sisters."

The "second brother" said in a seemingly sad tone, "I am already old and you are all still young. You can all wait but I can't. I really need this herb to get into the Heavenly Monarch level."

"Since you are already too old, you should take a rest and enjoy the rest of your life."

Long Zhi burst out laughing, "I suppose this herb should be given to me!"

"Then get in line!"

The "fourth sister" smirked, "Sister, I am the one that needs this herb the most! Do you still remember that I once saved your life? You said you owe me one back then and now, it is your time to return the favor."
