Chapter 399: – The Three Races Scheme, the Battle for the Top Three Begins

The whole palace shook instantly as the Demon Emperor's roar rang out.

It shook as if the earth were moving and mountains swaying, rumbling violently.

The surging demonic qi spread like raging rivers across heaven and earth.

Beside them, the God Emperor and Immortal Emperor snapped their eyes open, their gazes full of displeasure.

"Demon Emperor, what are you trying to do!"

The Immortal Emperor barked angrily, speaking with dissatisfaction.

A tremendous killing aura emanated from the Demon Emperor, affecting even the surrounding space.

It trembled continuously.

The God Emperor also furrowed his brows slightly, clearly displeased with the Demon Emperor's actions.

He said in a deep voice, "Demon Emperor, now is not the time for you to throw a tantrum; we must seize the moment, for once the Qiankun Cave Heaven opens, there will truly be no time left!"

The Demon Emperor's body trembled slightly as he turned around; his scarlet eyes blazed like molten lava from the depths of hell.

"My disciple... is dead!"

"If it were you, could you swallow this anger?"

The Demon Emperor roared, emitting a deafening howl.

The God Emperor and Immortal Emperor stared, somewhat surprised, but soon a flicker of joy crossed their eyes.

The Demon Emperor's disciple's death was, for them, also a good thing.

Don't look at how harmonious the Three Races are now; their relationship is entirely due to the presence of the Human Race, which makes them so harmonious.

Once the Human Race falls, the Three Races could turn hostile in the blink of an eye.

The Demon Emperor's disciple is his heir, just like the God Race's little prince and the Immortal Race's princess.

In the future, they could all inherit their legacies.

The Demon Emperor's disciple's death was, naturally, also good news for the God Emperor and Immortal Emperor.

Of course, such a thing could not be openly expressed.

The God Emperor frowned and spoke in a deep voice.

"Your disciple fell? That shouldn't be; if I recall correctly, your disciple should be participating in the Myriad Races Grand Competition right now!"

"Moreover, the Heavenly Demon King is stationed there, a Five Steps Enfeoffed King; even among humans, protecting him would be easy!"

As the God Emperor spoke, his brows twitched slightly and he took out a jade slip.

He affixed the jade slip to his ear and listened.

The next moment, the God Emperor's face darkened.

Beside him, the Immortal Emperor sensed something amiss and quickly asked.

"What happened? Could the Myriad Races Grand Competition have run into trouble?"

The God Emperor's face grew grim, and he spoke in a deep voice.

"The Slay Dragon King slew the Heavenly Demon King, and Mojie died at the hands of the Slay Dragon King's disciple, Su Yu!"

"Su Yu? That little brat who forged an Arhat Golden Body? How long has it been, and he's already reached this level!"

The Immortal Emperor exclaimed in shock.

As for Su Yu, he had naturally heard of him.

After all, Su Yu's title of third on the Earth Ranking was something he had personally placed.

But he hadn't taken Su Yu seriously.

After all, even a Myriad Race's talent, no matter how strong, is nothing more than the Transcendent Realm.

And he had already reached the Imperial Realm, so he naturally wouldn't regard it highly.

So, hearing news of Su Yu now naturally shocked him greatly.

The God Emperor's face grew slightly solemn.

Su Yu he had even seen before; back when he was at Mie Long Cheng, he could have taken advantage of the Slay Dragon King's lapse.

He could have killed Su Yu outright, but he ultimately gave up.

After all, Su Yu back then was merely a Flying Heaven Realm kid.

And at that time he was already a Half-Imperial Realm cultivator, whether out of pride or contempt.

He still did not act.

Who would have thought that, in less than a year, that ant of a Flying Heaven Realm cultivator would have grown to this extent?

The Demon Emperor's face twisted slightly.

The Demon Race's participants in this Myriad Races Grand Competition were all wiped out.

Not only did his own disciple fall in the competition, but even the Heavenly Demon King, a Five Steps Enfeoffed King, met the same fate.

This left even the Demon Emperor, who had entered the Imperial Realm, finding it hard to accept.

Just as the Demon Emperor was about to erupt, the Immortal Emperor's voice sounded.

"Demon Emperor, now is not the time for you to lose your temper. We have reached a critical juncture; whether we can seize the initiative in the Qiankun Cave Heaven depends on this opportunity!"

"Once we find a way to surpass the Imperial Realm, let alone a mere heir, we could even achieve immortality!"

"By then, wiping out the Human Race will be a snap, and we could even forge an even more glorious future!"

The Immortal Emperor stared fixedly at the Demon Emperor.

Now the three of us are like grasshoppers on a rope; if one falls behind, all our prior efforts could be wasted.

He did not want to see the Demon Emperor leave at this moment.

Hearing the Immortal Emperor's words, the Demon Emperor's face showed a conflicted expression.

He understood the Immortal Emperor's meaning well, but he was just unhappy.

It's displeasing that one's own clansmen, even disciples, would actually just fall among the Human Race like that.

The Divine Emperor also spoke at this time.

"Divine Emperor, now is not the time to lose your temper; after the Heaven-Earth Cave Heaven ends, when our power greatly increases, even if we wipe out the entire Human Race, we can bury your disciple with us."

"But now... it's not possible!"

The Divine Emperor stared fixedly at the Demon Emperor.

Faced with the two's persuasion, the Demon Emperor was extremely displeased, but in the end could only obediently calm down.

As the Divine Emperor and Immortal Emperor said, now is not the time to be angry with the Human Race.

Seeing the Demon Emperor become calm again, the Immortal Emperor and Divine Emperor exchanged a glance, then closed their eyes.

A profound fluctuation emanated from within the three of them, spreading out.

At the same time, Mie Long Cheng.

Along with Su Yu's destruction of the Demon Race's heaven's pride.

Finally, the top three rankings were completely determined.

Divine Race, Immortal Race, Human Race!

As for the Demon Race, they directly fell to sixth place.

Only two heaven's pride remained of the Demon Race, and they no longer had any thought of competing.

As for fourth and fifth place, they were decided between the Phoenix Clan and the Tiger Clan.

The Heaven Sword King stood in the void, his gaze lightly falling upon the Divine Race and Immortal Race.

"The top three battle begins..."

"In the group battle, whichever race still has a heaven's pride standing on the plaza at the end, that race will be this time's first place!"

"The first race to be completely eliminated will be third place!"

Upon hearing this, many Human Race Kings furrowed their brows slightly.

Because, this competition system is extremely unfair to the Human Race.

However, there's no way around it; in the Myriad Races Grand Competition, the top three matches have always been like this over the years.

However, the Human Race being able to enter the top three is still an unprecedented first.

As the Heaven Sword King's voice fell, in the room where the Divine Race, Immortal Race, and Human Race's heaven's pride were located.

One by one, the heaven's pride stood up and walked toward the plaza.
