Emperor’s Domination

“From the conversation so far, if I don’t agree, it will appear as if I’m afraid and weak.” Li Qiye said.

“Of course not, we can’t gauge your power accurately.” Sixth-sense said.

“Very well, I want to see how far you all can go after reaching the shore.” Li Qiye agreed.

“Thank you for agreeing. We shall meet again.” Sixth-sense bowed and said, pouring Li Qiye a full cup of tea.

“Indeed.” Li Qiye drank the cup.

Before Sixth-sense left, he told Light God: “We will require your assistance when the time comes, please do everything you can then.”

“Thank you for the high evaluation but I’m too weak to do anything.” Light God couldn’t agree because he couldn’t participate in a contest between immortals. Just one move would reduce him to ashes.

“He’s inviting Bao Pu, not you.” Li Qiye smiled and said.

Light God shuddered, feeling as if someone else could break out of his body at any second and take over. He didn’t know what tricks Bao Pu had left within.

“Friend, I am me, not Bao Pu. I’m afraid you will be disappointed.” He took a deep breath and said.

“Xian Chengtian said that when the time is right, you will be useful. I’m sure he’s not wrong.” Sixth-sense said with a smile.

“Absolutely not.” He refused.

“Brother, we will meet again.” Sixth-sense ignored his response and bowed before leaving.

Watching Sixth-sense’s departing figure gave him the creeps since the guy was so sure of his inevitable destiny.

“Will I accept the invitation?” He asked Li Qiye.

“He can invite all he wants, but accepting is Bao Pu’s matter. Of course, the outcome is still up to you.” Li Qiye said.

“Will Bao Pu accept?” He asked.

“Not even worth debating, of course he will.” Li Qiye said.

“Why is that?” He asked.

“Because he has no other choice. Now is the time to pick a side and he can’t pick mine. Xian Chengtian is gone, he can’t get to Zhan Sansheng, so he has to pick the two redemption grounds.” Li Qiye elaborated.

“So it’s a matter of time for me.” He couldn’t help looking behind as if someone else was there.

“None of this matters, only you. If you can protect your dao heart, Bao Pu won’t be able to take over. The way out is in your grasp.” Li Qiye said.

He took another look at the dao law given to him by Li Qiye. Although danger was inevitable, he still had a chance.

“Senior, why don’t you kill me? That would rid you of one problem.” He asked.

“You’re misreading the situation.” Li Qiye shook his head: “First, you don’t deserve death so why would I kill you? Moreover, Bao Pu is not a problem for me. He’s not comparable to the ancient immortals of the redemption grounds, just a broken immortal with a long way to go.”

“…” He was at a loss for words. A broken immortal was still stronger than an overlord. However, Li Qiye didn’t give a damn. The difference between them was clear.

“Boom!” World City shook violently due to an eruption of a terrible power.

“Rumble!” The nine peaks in the center couldn’t endure any longer.

“What’s going on?” Everyone in World City became frightened.

“World Seal wants to break out.” A primal ancestor said.

“Wasn’t it dormant after First Vine’s passing?” A big shot had no idea what would happen next.

“Boom!” One peak shattered from the shockwaves, leaving a gap.

A tsunami of the temporal affinity rushed out and drowned World City.

“Damn!” Emperors and desolate gods tried to run. Alas, they weren’t faster than time.

Fortunately, the temporal flood caused stagnation instead of flow, immobilizing instead of aging them.

Everyone’s mind was lucid yet their movements slowed down infinitely. Stronger existences could still move and struggle. However, weaker beings had no chance.

“What’s that?!” Those far away witnessed the breaking of the nine peaks.

A boundless light engulfed the sky and pulsed outward. The day turned into night with radiant stars, allowing full visibility.
