Chapter 1474: The Heavenly Empress's Remains (Second update, requesting everything)

~8 min read 1,562 words

Pop—

Dihuan continued to launch offensives, but they were resolved by the combined efforts of Day and Night.

Spatial explosion!

At this moment, the Eight-Clawed Golden Dragon immediately unleashed a Bloodline Inheritance Skill derived from the Ancestral Dragon, and a massive amount of spatial power was channeled from its Dragon Claw into the body of the Four-Clawed White Dragon.

The Four-Clawed White Dragon's Longyan suddenly widened, its pupils filled with bloodshot veins symbolizing agony; feeling as if its insides were being sliced by knives, it could not help but let out a mournful Dragon Roar.

During this process, the Four-Clawed White Dragon's dragon body rapidly swelled like a balloon, eventually exploding with a boom and snapping directly into two pieces.

This was only because the Four-Clawed White Dragon's body was sufficiently tough; otherwise, it would likely have been blasted into countless segments.

Because he was entangled by Li Zhangsheng, the Blood Emperor was ultimately a step too late and could only watch his Emperor-rank Four-Clawed White Dragon die miserably.

Following the fall of the Emperor-rank Four-Clawed White Dragon, the situation changed abruptly; missing one Emperor-rank Demon Pet caused the Blood Emperor's strength to drop by approximately twenty percent.

Twenty percent might not seem like much, but for a Stronger of this level, every bit of strength is crucial; furthermore, the Blood Emperor's strength was already inferior to Li Zhangsheng's, and now that the gap had suddenly widened, the situation could be considered quite unfavorable for him.

Naturally, the Blood Emperor was unwilling to stubbornly continue clashing with Li Zhangsheng; he knew very well that if he continued, not only would his losses increase, but he would also be in mortal danger.

However, before the Blood Emperor could take action, the Human Emperor had already fled a step earlier.

While dealing with Ning Bizhen and the two Dragon Kings, the Human Emperor had consistently kept a portion of his attention focused on Li Zhangsheng and the Blood Emperor.

The moment the Blood Emperor's Emperor-rank Four-Clawed White Dragon fell, the Human Emperor secretly thought things were looking bad and initiated a strategic retreat first; after recalling his Demon Pets and Divine Power avatar, he unfurled the Green Lotus Cloud Boundary Flag and vanished without a trace by shattering the void.

From beginning to end, adhering to the principle of "let the fellow Daoist die, not me," the Human Emperor never had any intention of rescuing the Blood Emperor.

Of course, this was mainly because the Human Emperor felt the Blood Emperor would not die, and at most, his losses would simply be heavier.

"The Human Emperor is truly unreliable..."

Seeing the Human Emperor flee alone without even a word of greeting, the Blood Emperor cursed incessantly in his heart and wanted to recall his Demon Pets and ride Dihuan to escape.

Naturally, Li Zhangsheng would not let the Blood Emperor escape easily; even if he could not keep the Blood Emperor, he had to try his best to increase his losses so that it would be easier when they encountered each other again in the future.

After a few breaths, the Blood Emperor rode Dihuan and shattered the void to leave, leaving two more corpses behind on the spot.

Li Zhangsheng did not pursue; it was mainly difficult to chase, and unless he could restrict the use of spatial treasures and spatial Demon Pets, it would only be a futile effort.

The Zhou Tian Star Dou Forbidden Array would be feasible, but the opponent was not an idiot; unless there were special circumstances, they would never voluntarily enter the array.

In this struggle, the Human Emperor suffered no losses, while only the Blood Emperor lost one Emperor-rank and two Demon Emperor-rank pets, which could be called a heavy loss.

In this way, both the Human Emperor and the Blood Emperor were left with only one Emperor-rank Demon Pet each.

Li Zhangsheng's side also suffered no losses, mainly because this battle ended too quickly.

"Let's go!"

Li Zhangsheng took the lead and flew toward the central area of Yaochi; the Star Emperor Inheritance naturally contained basic information about Yaochi.

Yaochi is quite special; apart from the Heavenly Emperor, it usually forbids any male or masculine creatures from entering, almost equivalent to the harem of a secular emperor, and is managed by the Heavenly Empress.

Even the Star Emperor had never entered Yaochi and only knew some basic data; fortunately, Li Zhangsheng had also received the Heavenly Emperor Inheritance—besides the Heavenly Empress, who could know Yaochi better than the Heavenly Emperor?

However, the Heavenly Emperor Inheritance had only been received recently, and Li Zhangsheng had not yet looked through it much; it would take some time to finish reading the data on Yaochi.

While digesting this information, Li Zhangsheng brought Ning Bizhen and the Four Seas Dragon Kings to the central area of Yaochi.

This place was covered with expansive garden-style buildings, planted everywhere with Pan Peach Trees, which were basically all medium to superior quality Spirit Roots, with the main effect of prolonging life.

Like the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, this building was also surrounded by a powerful Forbidden Array.

Judging from the Heavenly Emperor's inheritance, this was the Heavenly River Returning to Ruins Forbidden Array, which was not much inferior to the Blood River Forbidden Array and was a famous illusion array of the Heavenly Court.

The Heavenly River Returning to Ruins Forbidden Array belonged to the star-type Forbidden Arrays; it was not a Forbidden Array specifically researched by the Star Emperor, but was realized by the Heavenly Emperor and Heavenly Empress while observing the Zhou Tian Star Dou.

This could be said to be derived from the Zhou Tian Star Dou Forbidden Array, yet it was also seemingly similar but different.

Once one fell into the Heavenly River Returning to Ruins Forbidden Array, one would be trapped in an illusion and unable to extricate oneself, giving one the feeling of being "inch by inch" yet worlds apart, and eventually, one might be aged to death alive.

Due to the assistance of the entire Yaochi, the power of the Heavenly River Returning to Ruins Array could be said to have reached its limit.

However, this was still within the scope of Li Zhangsheng's ability to handle.

Li Zhangsheng possessed the River Chart and Luo Book, so breaking the Heavenly River Returning to Ruins Array was not difficult; the key was that Li Zhangsheng had obtained the Heavenly Emperor Inheritance, so there was no need to break the array at all.

Spending a few minutes, Li Zhangsheng digested the reality of the Heavenly River Returning to Ruins Array within the Heavenly Emperor Inheritance.

Li Zhangsheng did not bring the others and entered the array alone.

In an instant, the stars shifted, and it was as if everyone had appeared in the Milky Way, with an incomparably wide Heavenly River stretching out before them.

Li Zhangsheng observed for a few moments, the River Chart and Luo Book appearing above his head to distinguish the direction, and began to walk and stop within the Forbidden Array.

In just a few breaths' time, the scene before his eyes changed abruptly, and Li Zhangsheng had successfully entered the garden-style building.

Soon, Li Zhangsheng found the hub controlling the Heavenly River Returning to Ruins Array inside the building.

After Li Zhangsheng shut it down, the Heavenly River Returning to Ruins Array automatically hid itself, allowing others to enter and exit freely.

Ning Bizhen and the Four Seas Dragon Kings immediately reunited with Li Zhangsheng; the group did not go to look at the Pan Peach Trees in the garden—although these Pan Peach Trees were not bad, they were not held in high regard by them.

Li Zhangsheng familiarly found the Heavenly Empress's residence, which was also the most conspicuous place among the garden-style buildings.

The Heavenly Empress's residence also contained some Forbidden Arrays, but Li Zhangsheng was like he was in his own home, using the Heavenly Emperor's memories time and again to easily pass through and temporarily deactivate them.

The reason he did not destroy them was mainly because Li Zhangsheng felt he would use them in the future.

To become the Sovereign of the Three Realms, the Heavenly Court could not be left out; furthermore, the Heavenly Court had infinite resources, so naturally, Li Zhangsheng had no reason to let them go.

From the very beginning, he had wanted to take the Heavenly Court as his own.

Not long after, the group arrived at the depths of the Heavenly Empress's residence.

The layout here was relatively similar to the Heavenly Emperor's sleeping quarters; at the end of a long staircase, a beautiful woman with a solemn expression was sitting on a phoenix chair, supporting her head with one hand, looking as if she were fast asleep.

Li Zhangsheng could feel that this beautiful woman had long since lost her vitality.

Without a doubt, this was the Heavenly Empress's remains!

The Heavenly Empress wore a phoenix crown and phoenix hairpins, was dressed in Nishang Yuyi, wore a bracelet on her left wrist, held an Inheritance Jade Slip and a phoenix-headed cane in her right hand, and also had a ring on her index finger.

Additionally, in her arms, there was a rabbit that looked as if it had been carved from a single piece of flawless jade.
