Chapter 772: The Strength of the Cosmos Edge (2/2)
Because of this, the strength of the Very High Heavens was gradually weakened and had lost about 90% of the territory it first owned. Now, it only had an ordinary city in the cosmos and even their original encampment was snatched away by others.
The Very High Heavens Cosmos Immortal City was now the only encampment they had left in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos.
Presently, an emotionless middle age man was seated on the main seat in the hall of the Very High Heavens Immortal City. Tens of people sat on either side of him and every one of them was brimming with energy. Even the weakest one among them was in the advanced Immortal Reverent Stage.
The middle age man was called Ping Lishang, the castellan of the Very High Heavens Cosmos Immortal City, and he was in the Great Circle of the Immortal Reverent Stage. Within the Very High Heavens itself, his status was only second to Dao Emperor Zi Changluo. Everyone was well aware that he worked solely for Zi Changluo and would listen to every order from him.
”Zai Yang, let me know the details of how the Heaven’s Beyond City Square was destroyed as well as the appearance of that Pill Emperor from human race,” Ping Lishang said with a tone as unfeeling as his face.
”Yes,” A slightly skinnier elder stood up with his fist clasped before saying, ”There was a Pill Emperor called Mo Wuji who set up a shophouse in the city square called the Mortal Pill House. He was a Tier 8 Pill Emperor and the pills he concocted was way cheaper than the Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion. This resulted in the unhappiness of the Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion who eventually reported to the Mifei Trade Union…”
”Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion has four Immortal Reverents and they still reported to their trade union?” A young female, who was seated beside Ping Lishang, asked doubtfully.
Zai Yang explained, ”Even though this Mo Wuji was a Tier 8 Pill Emperor, he should have obtained an extremely high quality legacy because he actually managed to get the Immortal Reverent Kuang Jin of the Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion to betray them and rumours were that he even managed to kill the bisexual Immortal Reverent Ji Qi. Min Cheng of the Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion had always been very cautious which was why he reported to the trade union.”
Ping Lishang nodded, ”I am aware of this so do continue.”
Despite the restrains of their powers in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, the Very High Heavens still had a shophouse of their own in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square. He had indeed heard of Mifei Trade Union sending an Immortal Emperor to the city square but he simply chose to ignore it. In his opinion, the Mortal Pill House was seeking death and the Immortal Emperor should have eliminated the Mortal Pill House.
”The Immortal Emperor sent by the Mifei Trade Union is called Dou Hong and the unexpected incident was how Dou Hong disappeared without a trace after reaching the Heaven’s Beyond City Square. He should have been killed by that Pill Emperor Mo…”
A voice interjected Zai Yang’s words, ”I know Dou Hong and that he was in the pinnacle of the elementary Immortal Emperor Stage. I believe that even the average intermediate Immortal Emperor might not be able to match him so how could like pill master like Mo Wuji kill him? Could Kuang Jin have helped after realising his emperor dao?”
Zai Yang continued, ”This was what I suspected previously but a few days later, rumours were spreading about how the Mifei Trade Union sent another three more Immortal Emperors, Ou Zhaohe, Ling Rong and De Pingsha to the city square. These three people surrounded the Mortal Pill House and the newly advanced Immortal Emperor Kuang Jin fled from the city square in fear just as the battle started. Mo Wuji alone fought three Immortal Emperors and even managed to kill Ou Zhaohe and Ling Rong when the defensive arrays exploded. Only De Pingsha managed to make it out alive as he escaped out into the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. This shows that the death of Dou Hong should have nothing to do with Kuang Jin.”
A deep breath of cold air was breathed in as everyone in the hall knew Ou Zhaohe and Ling Rong despite not knowing who Mo Wuji was.
Ou Zhaohe was an advanced Immortal Emperor and was a unique existence with unparalleled strength in the Cosmos Edge. On the other hand, Ling Rong was a cold blooded Immortal Emperor and was almost as strong as Ou Zhaohe. To die under the hands of a Pill Emperor of the Mortal Pill House, this was simply unbelievable.
Zai Yang’s voice could be heard again, ”The Heaven’s Beyond City Square was destroyed by that single war but that Mo Wuji had disappeared.Presently at the Cosmos Edge, members of the city square is squaring off with the Mifei Trade Union in terms of the compensation which Mifei Trade Union should pay for the destruction of the city square.”
”Do you have any image of that Mo Wuji?” Ping Lisha’ tone became even deeper.
Zai Yang’s raised his hand to draw an image of a blue robe youth for everyone to view.
A golden robe man seated in the corner of the hall clenched his fist tightly at the sight of the image. In less than a breath’s worth of time, he managed to conceal all his anger and emotions.
”Has anyone seen this man before?” Ping Lishang scanned through the crowd of people in the hall.
No one stood up to say anything as it was evident no one knew Mo Wuji.
”Since no one recognise him, this meeting shall end here. Sun Lin, follow me to the Heaven’s Beyond Immortal Alliance,” Ping Lisha stood up and said.
”Yes,” The person standing up was a female seated beside Ping Lisha and she was the same person who asked why the Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion reported to the trade union.
Experts in the hall started to stand up as everyone was aware that Ping Lisha was going to request for the help of the Heaven’s Beyond Immortal Alliance to fight for an encampment in the Cosmos Edge. The human race which the Very High Heavens represented had an encampment in the Cosmos Edge but as the race got stronger while the Very High Heavens got weaker, they were eventually chased out of the Cosmos Edge.
Without a foothold in the Cosmos Edge, one would eventually be chased out of the heart of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos.
