Chapter 1457: Battle of Quasi-Emperors

Draped in a sprinkle of auspicious light spilling from the sky above, the ancient palace looked like the residence of the gods!

But at this moment, there was a fierce battle in front of the stone steps.

Terrifying forces of dao laws manifested in brilliant strokes, and their thunderous rumbles stirred up the nine heavens.

Great Emperor Zhao Yuanji, the empress, Zhao Tailai, and the principal of Qinglu Academy were being surrounded by attacks.

Among their opponents were two groups of cultivators, one was the Brute Warriors led by Wu Jiuzhong and the other was the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races led by Gou Tianxing.

There was also a band of powerful creatures who had been hibernating in Mulberry Woodland, such as a flood-dragon that looked like it was made of green jade, a bronze ant as large as a calf

Each of them possessed the battle prowess of the Quasi-Emperor stage!

To be exact, those beneath the Quasi-Emperor stage werent qualified to participate in this earth-shattering fight.

Cough The empress trembled and coughed out a mouthful of blood, her face pale.

In the distance, Wu Jiuzhong wore a ruthless expression. Stop resisting, Zhao Yuanji, or your woman will die soon!

His voice thundered, causing the air to explode.

Wu Jiuzhong was clad in beast-hide armor. His hair and beard were sloppy. His skin was bronze in color with every inch imprinted with mysterious dao runes. His aura was terrifying and vast.

In his hands was a war spear made of white bone. Its momentum was so fierce that a casual strike had the power to destroy the world.

Previously, it was him who had injured the empress!

Hmph, well see who will die! said the empress with a cold snort.

Ridiculous. Since you insist on making the wrong decision, Ill fulfill it!

A teal-clad Gou Tianxing rushed in out of nowhere. He had the appearance of a handsome and refined young man, but his eyes were raging with an intimidating gleam.

Every step he took shattered the air. Streams of dao power condensed into a teal-green lotus. Enveloped in the flower, he looked like a dashing immortal.

However, his blows were vicious. Each one was accompanied with a rain of light that transformed into thousands of blade qi as they shot down from the sky.

This was an attack that could easily obliterate any Saint!

Zhao Tailai used everything he had to block it, but he was still shaken to the point that his blood was churning. He let out a muffled grunt as his face turned pale.

Are you people not ashamed?! The livid principal rushed over to help. With a long roar, his clothes fluttered as a sky-piercing aura erupted from his slender figure.

Youre talking about shame while were all competing for this great opportunity? Zhao Yuanji must die! declared Wu Jiuzhong ruthlessly.

As they talked, the intense exchange of attacks never stopped with the great emperors group being tightly surrounded by the rest.

Cut the crap and quickly kill him! spat the flood-dragon coldly. In its original form that was over a hundred feet long, it resembled the legendary Azure Dragon that could sink mountains and shatter air with a random strike.

On another side, the calf-sized, bronze ant was slashing its razor-sharp front limbs. It hadnt said a word since the beginning, but its attacks were the most vicious.

A bunch of despicable bastards think they can become Emperors? Delusional! cursed Zhao Tailai angrily.

But inwardly, he was anxious.

Their situation was precarious as they were all injured. At this rate, it was highly likely that they would all be wiped out here.

Dont waste your breath on them, Tailai. Lets fight to the end, and drag down as many as we can even if we die, said Zhao Yuanji calmly. His clothes fluttered wildly as his terrifying aura shocked the heavens.

As he took out a golden, square imperial jade seal, it radiated a might that could rule over the world.

His attack was calm and unhurried, seemingly not fierce enough, but he alone was blocking the attacks of multiple Quasi-Emperors!

Upon hearing Zhao Yuanjis declaration, the expressions of the opponents all changed as they felt chills running through their hearts. They then snorted derisively, but their expressions grew colder and colder.

Their attacks also became more and more powerful.

This time, they were determined to kill Zhao Yuanji at all costs!

The area rumbled as the battle reached a new intensity.

The sun and the moon were blotted out, and the world was plunged into darkness as the power of dao laws spread like a galaxy.

It was fortunate that this kind of battle was happening in the vicinity of the ancient palace. If placed in the outside world, then the destruction it could cause would simply be unimaginable.

After all, Quasi-Emperors were above Saint-Kings!

This kind of character could destroy a region with a flick of their finger, and the world would tilt and quake with a nod of their head. Alone, they could flatten a whole world!

And right now, a group of Quasi-Emperors were at war!

If Saints and Big Saints were present, it was not an exaggeration to say they wouldnt have a chance to survive the aftershocks of their clashes.

Even Saint-Kings would also be forced to retreat with serious injuries!

Pff

Before long, even someone as strong as Zhao Yuanji coughed up blood, staining his clothes red.

His expression remained composed, but inwardly, he sighed.

When his group had first arrived at this place, there had been no conflicts with the other cultivators. However, an accident had occurred when they were about to climb the stone steps.

He had attempted to use his dao power to communicate with the ancient palace in which lay the great opportunity, but who would have thought that it would trigger a shocking phenomenon.

Sounds of bell tolling had echoed from the palace and stirred the land, while the palace itself emitted fluctuations that miraculously harmonized with his breathing.

Zhao Yuanji had been amazed, incredulous, and exhilarated upon realizing that he had a very high hope of capturing this great opportunity.

But this had also evoked the hostility and killing intent of the other experts present!

Whether it was the brute warriors led by Wu Jiuzhong, or the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races led by Gou Tianxing, or even the terrifying creatures of Mulberry Woodland, they had all pointed their weapons at Zhao Yuanjis group.

The phenomenon had given Zhao Yuanji great hopes, but it had also brought a calamity upon his group.

No one could tolerate the grand opportunity falling into his hands!

Thus, the battle had erupted before they even set foot into the ancient palace.

Even Zhao Yuanji could hardly predict that his misfortune would lie in the blessings.

At this point, he no longer hoped to obtain the great opportunity. There was only one thought in his mind, and that was even if he was to die in battle, he had to drag a few down to the underworld with him!

He only regretted having involved the empress, Zhao Tailai, and the principal in this calamity.

This flooded his heart with endless guilt.

Dont feel bad, Yuanji. We all prepared to put our life at risk when we came to this place. Now that its come to this point, we may as well fight our hearts out and turn the world upside down! said the empress, as if she had read the emperors thoughts.

Hahahaha, of course! laughed Zhao Tailai loudly.

Thats how its supposed to be, the principal of Qinglu Academy also laughed.

Fight!

Their fighting spirit burned, almost intoxicating.

Zhao Yuanji also laughed. A glint of madness flashed in his eyes as he said, Then lets fight. We have lain low in the empire for too many years without a real good fight like this!

No longer held back by concerns, he completely let go.

Everyone knew that they had hit a dead end, even if they could kill all of their opponents.

Because in the distant shadows still lurked many powerful beings, watching their battle with cold eyes.

They seemed uninvolved, but they certainly wouldnt stand by and watch if Zhao Yuanji managed to win and survive!

Knowing that there was only one outcome for them, Zhao Yuanjis group no longer feared death!

Quick, we must use our full strength!

The opponents all looked grave, not daring to let their guard down for a second.

As Quasi-Emperors, they knew better than anyone else how threatening a Quasi-Emperor could be when one was being pushed to the brink of death!

Not to mention that there was more than one that they were facing.

The distant bystanders also became excited. They could see that this earth-shaking battle was nearing the end!

Bang!

Zhao Yuanji smacked the bronze ant flying, creating a palm-shaped dent on its huge body. The ant let out a painful scream.

But at the same time, he was injured by the attacks of the other opponents. He staggered, and blood seeped out from his lips.

Despicable trash, go to hell, all of you! roared Zhao Tailai, who appeared to have lost his sanity. He was a gruesome sight, with disheveled hair and countless wounds that did not stop bleeding.

But he was oblivious to this all, attacking recklessly.

The empress and the principal were no different. They constantly gained new injuries, but they neither retreated nor gave in.

Even the land wailed as it watched this tragic battle. It was as unbearable as it was astounding.

Under their desperate attacks, Wu Jiuzhong and the other Quasi-Emperors were also injured. This infuriated them, causing their expressions to become more gloomy.

They were also on high alert lest Zhao Yuanjis final desperate strike would fall on them. If that happened, then the consequences would be terrifying beyond measure.

Yuanji, IImay have to go first, said the empress suddenly. Her face was as white as a sheet as she faltered. Her plain clothes had been dyed red and were soaked with blood.

Zhao Yuanji stiffened. As an indescribable rage welled up in his heart, his eyes became bloodshot. In a flash, he placed himself in front of the empress. If youre going to leave, then well leave together!

Yes, go together! roared Zhao Tailai maniacally like a wild beast, his expression firm and his eyes crimson.

How fortunate I am to be able to die alongside you all, said the principal with a faint smile.

The four looked at each other and let out booming laughs that shook the clouds.

The expressions of Wu Jiuzhongs group were icy. Their attacks became more and more intense as they no longer tried to preserve their strength. Anyone knew that the power one erupted with in their final moments was always the most horrifying.

Although they scorned Zhao Yuanjis group for not knowing their limitations and fighting back, they did not dare to be careless.

Just at this moment, a voice suddenly rang out in the distance, Seniors, let me give you a hand!
