Because the Jade Qing Empire and the Joyous Empire had the support of a large sect that was on par with the Heavenly Reaching School, the Heavenly Reaching Emperor had never thought of attacking these two empires. Instead, he had set his sights on the Blood Pool Empire and the Star Luo Empire because these two empires were established by individuals and did not have a large background.
However, the Star Luo Empire and the Blood Lake Empire's Patriarch were First Grade Great Golden Immortals after all. Although the Heaven Reaching Great Emperor was confident that he could defeat them, he would have to pay a considerable price to kill them. This would give others an opportunity to take advantage of him. Therefore, the Heaven Reaching Great Emperor wanted to watch the war between the Blood Lake Empire and the Star Luo Empire. He wanted to wait until the two empires suffered heavy losses, especially after the Star Luo Empire and the Blood Lake Patriarch died.
However, who would've thought that the Blood Pool Patriarch would be killed by Emperor Qin? Furthermore, the newly established New Qin Empire had allied with the Star Luo Empire and stopped waging war? This made the Heavenspan Emperor extremely furious, and he even wanted to attack the Star Luo Empire. However, he didn't do anything in the end because he was wary of the Jade Qing Empire and the Joyous Empire.
Although the Yu Qing Empire and the Huan Xin Empire now followed the Emperor Of Heaven's lead, the Heaven Reaching Great Emperor believed that if he was seriously injured, Arhat Joy and Yi Chenzi, who were smiling in front of him, would definitely stab him in the back. Therefore, the Heaven Reaching Great Emperor didn't attack.
However, when Li Tongtian was worrying about how to deal with the New Qin Empire and the Star Luo Empire, a person appeared and solved all the problems for him. This person was an envoy from the Heaven Reaching School. Although he was only a Tier 36 Nine Heaven Xuan Immortal, he was much stronger than Li Tongtian. As long as this person attacked, conquering the Star Luo Empire and the New Qin Empire wouldn't be a problem.
It was precisely because of this that Li Tongtian had decided to hold this Heavenspan Pageant. Aside from wanting to flaunt the might of the Heavenspan Empire, he also wanted to capture Qin Shi Huang and the Star Luo Empire's patriarch in one fell swoop. After that, he would be able to conquer the Star Luo Empire and the new Qin Empire with unstoppable force.
After Li Tongtian finished speaking, he looked at everyone's reaction. Yi Chenzi's reaction to Happy Arhat was already within Li Tongtian's expectations. Therefore, he didn't pay attention to them and focused on Emperor Qin and Star Luo's reaction. However, Li Tongtian discovered that Star Luo's Ancestor was actually looking at Emperor Qin. It seemed like he wanted to follow Emperor Qin's lead.
This made Li Tongtian furious, but he didn't show it. Instead, he looked at Emperor Qin. After hearing Li Tongtian's words, Emperor Qin looked at Li Tongtian's gaze and nodded slightly. Then, he said indifferently, "The guest will follow the host's wishes. Since you said it's time to begin, then let's begin!"
When Li Tongtian heard Emperor Qin's words, the anger in his heart surged. One had to know that even Yi Chenzi had to respectfully address Happy Arhat as Heavenspan Great Emperor. Yet, Emperor Qin had only used the word "you". How could Heavenspan Great Emperor accept this? When he saw Emperor Qin's indifferent appearance, Heavenspan Great Emperor's eyes were about to ignite with flames.
However, Li Tongtian suppressed his anger in the end. Then, he slowly said, "Since that's the case, then please go up to the Heavenspan Divine Platform. This Heavenspan Pageant will be held on the Heavenspan Divine Platform." After he finished speaking, he flipped his hand and a small jade platform appeared in his hand. Then, he threw it into the sky. Immediately, the jade platform turned into a white light and flew out of the Heavenspan Hall. Then, it landed on the ground with a rumble.
There was an extremely large square outside the Heavenly Connecting Hall, and the jade platform landed on this square. Moreover, the jade platform, which was less than a foot long, was actually so heavy. It landed on the ground with a loud rumble, and even the entire Imperial City shook, causing everyone's expression to change slightly.
In the past, the Heavenly Supreme Pageant had always been held in this plaza, and Li Tongtian had never displayed this Heavenly Supreme Divine Altar. However, this was the first time he had used this Heavenly Supreme Divine Altar. This made Happy Arhat, Yi Chenzi, and Old Ancestor Xing Luo, who had participated in the previous Heavenly Supreme Pageants, guess what Li Tongtian was trying to do.
Of course, this was the first time Old Ancestor Xing Luo, Yi Chenzi, Happy Arhat, and the others knew that Li Tongtian actually had such a treasure. In their opinion, the Heavenspan City was already Li Tongtian's strongest treasure. However, this jade platform seemed to be even more powerful than the Heavenspan City.
Among the people present, only Emperor Qin and Prime Minister Li Si were not affected by the appearance of the jade platform. They quietly looked at it. At this moment, the jade platform that was less than a foot long actually emitted a dazzling light. Then, it continued to expand. It became bigger and bigger, and in the blink of an eye, it reached the clouds.
Looking at the constantly expanding Heavenspan Divine Platform, Li Tongtian was extremely proud. This treasure naturally did not belong to him. It belonged to the Heavenspan Church's emissary. He had borrowed it to use. He was very satisfied with the shock caused by the Heavenspan Divine Platform. Of course, Li Tongtian's biggest goal was to lure Emperor Qin and Old Ancestor Xing Luo onto the platform. Then, he would kill them.
When the jade platform had expanded to a height of thirty thousand li, Li Tongtian said to everyone with a smile on his face. "Everyone, please. On this Heavenspan Divine Platform, this seat has already arranged a banquet to entertain everyone. However, this seat still has to remind you that this Heavenspan Divine Platform is not so easy to climb. If your strength is not enough, don't force yourself."
After saying that, Li Tongtian stretched his leg and walked up. Following Li Tongtian, Happy Arhat, Yi Chenzi, and the others from the two great empires also began to climb up the Heavenspan Divine Platform. Although they were all walking forward step by step, their speed was extremely fast.
Old Ancestor Xing Luo glanced at Emperor Qin. Seeing Emperor Qin nod his head, he followed Emperor Qin and Prime Minister Li Si towards the Heavenspan Divine Platform. When he began to climb up the Heavenspan Divine Platform, he understood the meaning behind Li Tongtian's words. As it turned out, the pressure on the Heavenspan Divine Platform would increase with every step.
And this Heavenspan Divine Platform was thirty thousand li high. If one wanted to climb to the top of this Heavenspan Divine Platform, how much pressure would they have to endure? Old Ancestor Xing Luo naturally did not care. With his cultivation and strength, this kind of pressure was simply nothing to him. However, it was extremely difficult for Xing Lun, Xing Yun, and the others from the Star Luo Empire to climb to the top.
However, Old Ancestor Xing Luo saw that Emperor Qin's expression did not change. His mood did not change at all as he continued to walk forward step by step. In the blink of an eye, he had already walked halfway. At this time, some people from the Happy Empire and Jade Qing Empire had already stopped here.
"Don't try to be brave. If you can't bear it, then just stay here." Emperor Qin said as he walked. Ling Yun, Red Firmament, and the others stopped when they heard this. With their current strength, they could only stop here. It was not impossible for them to continue, but they would be in danger of being injured. Emperor Qin felt this point, so he told them to stop here. Old Ancestor Xing Luo also hurriedly told the people from the Star Luo Empire to stop.
There was still half of the journey left. Emperor Qin, Prime Minister Li Si, and Old Ancestor Xing Luo continued to climb. At this time, Li Tongtian and the others had already reached the top. At the top was a platform with a radius of about ten feet. There were seats on all four sides of the platform, and it was the same in the center. The layout was the same as in the Heavenspan Great Hall. The only difference was that there was a jade pillar erected at each of the four corners of the platform.
There were four treasured swords hanging from these four jade pillars. None of them had a scabbard. These four treasured swords were respectively green, black, red, and blue. They flickered with their own light, and a faint pressure was emitted from these four treasured swords. It was clear that these four treasured swords were not ordinary.
Li Tongtian stood at the edge of the highest platform, looking down at Qin Shihuang, Prime Minister Li Si, and Old Ancestor Star Luo who were currently walking up step by step. Suddenly, with a thought, the pressure emitted by the jade platform increased by quite a bit, enveloping Qin Shihuang and the other two. This move was naturally to make Qin Shihuang and the other two look like fools.
However, other than Old Ancestor Xing Luo pausing for a moment, Qin Shihuang and Prime Minister Li Si didn't feel anything at all. Their footsteps didn't stop at all as they continued forward. As for Old Ancestor Xing Luo, he only paused for a moment before continuing to climb upwards.
Seeing this situation, Li Tongtian sneered in his heart. He urged the Heavenly Divine Altar to emit an even stronger pressure, enveloping Emperor Qin and Prime Minister Li Si. He didn't believe that the pressure emitted by the Heavenly Divine Altar wouldn't be able to embarrass Emperor Qin. However, unexpectedly, Emperor Qin and Prime Minister Li Si continued to climb up without feeling anything.
Originally, Happy Arhat and Yi Chenzi saw Li Tongtian's action and were waiting to see Emperor Qin and the others make a fool of themselves. They didn't expect to see Li Tongtian make a fool of himself. However, no matter who made a fool of themselves, they still saw it. Moreover, they were also surprised by the strength displayed by Emperor Qin and Prime Minister Li Si.
Facing the pressure emitted by Li Tongtian's Heavenly Divine Altar, although they could withstand it, it was impossible for them to not feel anything. Therefore, under such circumstances, it indirectly proved that Emperor Qin's strength was unfathomable. Wanting to deal with Emperor Qin wouldn't be easy.
Li Tongtian also thought of this point, but he didn't take it to heart. Although Emperor Qin's strength was unfathomable, but as long as Emperor Qin hadn't broken through to the realm of Nine Heavens Xuan Immortal, then with the existence of the Heavenly Divine Altar and the emissary of the Heavenly Divine Church, Emperor Qin and Old Ancestor Xing Luo would inevitably be beheaded.
