Chapter 1345: Heavenly Realm
Li Zhangsheng had great self-awareness; once his strength was severely diminished, there would definitely be many Strongers who would set their sights on him.
There was no helping it; Li Zhangsheng's performance was too monstrous, definitely worthy of being the number one monster in the history of the Fairy World. Everyone knew he harbored great secrets, and once his strength was severely damaged, those fellows would swarm over like sharks smelling blood, cruelly tearing him apart to feast.
This was an entirely foreseeable outcome; since his strength was inferior to others, he would adopt a more stable method.
Most importantly, Li Zhangsheng's progress was too fast, and he had repeatedly thwarted the Human Emperor's schemes; it was likely the Human Emperor was also willing to pay a price to finish him off.
Hmm, Li Zhangsheng did not want to give the Human Emperor such an opportunity, especially since the other party was an old schemer who had lived for nearly ten thousand years and possessed countless hidden cards.
First, he plotted against Wudi, then schemed against the Spirit Emperor and Wendi, and in the shadows, he had even allied with the Dragon Clan. If not for Li Zhangsheng's appearance disrupting his plans, the Human Emperor would likely be ruling half the land by now.
The next moment, 365 Star Banners appeared. These Star Banners could be said to be a single entity; as long as the Exotic Treasure Burial Technique was used once, they could all be ignited.
Of course, these Star Banners could also be ignited separately; how many were ignited depended entirely on Li Zhangsheng.
In order to stop the Human Emperor, Li Zhangsheng resolutely ignited all 365 Star Banners, including the Zifu Qizhen-level Taiyang Xing Banner and Taiyin Xing Banner.
There is no gain without sacrifice, and besides, Li Zhangsheng knew the methods and materials for refining the Taiyang Xing Banner and Taiyin Xing Banner; with the assistance of Wendi and Wudi, he believed these materials could be gathered in a short time.
In an instant, the 365 Star Banners seemed to be set ablaze, burning with raging starlight flames, their power surging by a large margin.
Among them, the power of the leading Taiyang Xing Banner and Taiyin Xing Banner even rivaled that of a Langhuan Supreme Treasure.
Even the ordinary Star Banners were close to reaching the level of a Lower-Grade World Wonder, and they were further suppressed at the eye of the array by an Eleven-Grade Star Palace Lotus Platform.
In terms of power, this combined Hunyuan Heluo Forbidden Array could fully compare to the eighth-level trial set up on the Star Palace Steps.
The problem was that the forbidden array on the Star Palace Steps had no one presiding over it, so it could not exert its full power and was easily found at its eye.
The 365 Star Banners vanished into the void, instantly taking effect.
The Human Emperor scrutinized the changes around him with a grave expression, and he could feel the space within the range becoming solidified. Although the Green Lotus Cloud Boundary Flag could still tear through space, it was difficult to do so at will.
Seeing that the figures of Li Zhangsheng and his Demon Pets had also disappeared, the Human Emperor held an additional precious mirror in his hand. It was mysterious yellow in color, and as it shone, the entire forbidden array showed signs of trembling.
"Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror!"
Li Zhangsheng's expression suddenly turned ugly. He recognized this precious mirror, for the Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror could be said to be world-famous.
While all were Merit Spirit Treasures, there were still distinctions in quality, mainly determined by the amount of Mysterious Yellow Merit Qi they contained.
Compared to the Mysterious Yellow Seal and the Gate of Light and Darkness, the Mysterious Yellow Merit Qi of the Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror was clearly more concentrated, just one step away from being a Merit Supreme Treasure.
Most importantly, the previous owner of the Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror was the famous Ancient Heavenly Emperor; for the Heavenly Realm at that time, it was definitely a treasure ranked in the top three.
Yet, such a heavy treasure was now held by the Human Emperor under the premise that the Heavenly Realm was sealed.
How the Human Emperor obtained the Heavenly Emperor's precious mirror, Li Zhangsheng did not know, but he knew things had become serious.
Besides being a defensive supreme treasure, the Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror also possessed a powerful restraining effect against forbidden arrays.
In the murals of Ziwei Palace, there was a scene of the Ancient Heavenly Emperor wielding the Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror. Using it, the Ancient Heavenly Emperor forcefully broke the Ten Thousand Kings Array presided over by the Mysterious Emperor. If the Mysterious Empress had not arrived in time, the Mysterious Emperor might have been in dire straits.
Both were Ten Thousand Kings Arrays, but the one presided over by Luo Yuanjun could not even be considered a poor man's version; it was far inferior to the one presided over by the Ancient Mysterious Emperor, which was composed of hundreds of kings, with the rest being at least Fifth-tier Beastmasters, and could even clash head-on with the Zhou Tian Star Dou Forbidden Array.
Yet, such a Ten Thousand Kings Array was broken by the Ancient Heavenly Emperor single-handedly. Apart from the Ancient Heavenly Emperor's super-strong personal strength, it also had a close relationship with the Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror.
From the feedback of his Mental Power, the light emitted by the Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror clearly exceeded that of the Gate of Light and Darkness; it had likely reached the level of a Supreme Langhuan Treasure.
This was also the first time Li Zhangsheng had seen a Supreme Langhuan Treasure, but unfortunately, it belonged to the enemy.
The next moment, the Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror flew up, shooting a bright beam of light from the Mirror.
Under the beam of light, the power generated by the forbidden array was disintegrating at a very fast speed, and the entire forbidden array shook more and more.
According to Li Zhangsheng's estimation, it would not be long before the entire forbidden array collapsed.
"Pity it's not night!"
Li Zhangsheng felt a bit regretful. If it were night, even if the Human Emperor possessed the Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror, the Hunyuan Heluo Forbidden Array could definitely have held on for quite some time.
Taking advantage of the fact that the forbidden array was still taking effect, Li Zhangsheng signaled his Demon Pets to do their best to harass the Human Emperor and his Demon Pets, while he himself waited for an opportunity to act.
Because Li Zhangsheng possessed the Purple Extreme Golden Palace Starry Sky Crown and the Future Sumeru Pill, the Human Emperor had to adopt a steady and solid tactical policy, not giving Li Zhangsheng any chance to exploit loopholes.
Soon, a minute passed. Under the targeting of the Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror, the entire forbidden array shook violently, as if it would shatter at any moment.
"Break!"
Li Zhangsheng pulled back, taking the opportunity to retrieve the Eleven-Grade Star Palace Lotus Platform. The 365 burning Star Banners shone brightly and exploded with a boom.
The Human Emperor sensed something was wrong and had to let the Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror protect him.
The Mysterious Yellow Precious Mirror was indeed worthy of being a Supreme Langhuan Treasure, as it stubbornly withstood this wave of self-detonation.
Taking advantage of this wave of self-detonation, Li Zhangsheng retreated rapidly for several miles before taking out a miniature palace, on which there was a Teleportation Array.
"Not good!"
By the time Li Zhangsheng activated the Teleportation Array, the Human Emperor felt a sense of unease. However, because the aftermath of the self-detonation had not yet dissipated, the Human Emperor could not immediately intercept him and could only make the Ruyi Spear grow larger and smash it toward Li Zhangsheng again.
"Go!"
Li Zhangsheng threw out a bead, which shattered and turned into a large light shield; it was the Taiyin Cold Light Miasma.
The Ruyi Spear swung over, pausing significantly the moment it touched the Taiyin Cold Light Miasma, finally breaking through it.
Taking advantage of this time, Li Zhangsheng had already retrieved his Demon Pets, stepped into the Teleportation Array, and disappeared.
The Human Emperor hurriedly stopped the Ruyi Spear to avoid shattering the Teleportation Array.
Given that he did not know the destination of the Teleportation Array, the Human Emperor could not help but hesitate; after all, this Teleportation Array could potentially transport him to some dangerous places that even he found troublesome.
