"Let's wait and see."
Green Lady frowned worriedly.
Su Ping could tell that she wasn't worried about the artifacts, but that the Twilight Deity King's body would be destroyed by the Ascendant State experts.
I've dug a hole for myself. Su Ping secretly smiled bitterly. He wouldn't have mentioned it if he had known. He would rather have asked Green Lady to take him somewhere else instead of watching the battle.
There were treasures everywhere in the divine residence. Su Ping wouldn't feel regretful even if he couldn't get the legacy. Robbing something right under the noses of three Ascendant State experts and claiming all the benefits was a stroke of luck that only the protagonists in novels could have. It was impossible in reality.
Su Ping couldn't abandon Green Lady since she wanted to watch. He could only sigh and keep watching.
Very soon, the battle up ahead changed. The formation that the artifacts were struggling to maintain had a flaw, and the three Ascendant State experts and their pets made a hole in it. Very soon, a divine sword that was covered in divine aura was dimmed by an Ascendant State expert and blown tens of thousands of meters away.
The three Ascendant State experts took advantage of the opportunity to pursue and attack, and the other divine artifacts were forced to retreat step by step. They were heavily damaged and overflowing with divine light.
"Senior Green Lady, let's retreat for now. I'm afraid you won't be able to escape if they notice us," Su Ping quickly persuaded her.
Green Lady knew that she had lost the battle. She heaved a sigh and said, "I have the Seven Realms Divine Concealment Technique that the Deity King taught me. Regular Golden Deities can't detect me … Fine, I'll take a look at the Heavenly Pit and then leave."
"Okay."
Su Ping was greatly relieved to see that she was finally persuaded.
Green Lady released a misty energy that enshrouded Su Ping, before she turned around and flew away.
When they turned around, the artifacts behind them were gradually knocked down and subdued by the three Ascendant State experts, who stored them in their small worlds.
Whoosh!
Su Ping's vision changed. The palace that was enshrouded in divine aura was gone, replaced by an ancient void battlefield.
Corpses were strewn all over the field, lying across the void as if they had been frozen in time.
Many of the corpses belonged to ancient deities who used to be the Twilight Deity King's subordinates. There were also a lot of giant beasts. Some of them were spiritual beasts that had been tamed and enslaved, and some were invading monsters.
Su Ping also saw the corpses of the Abyss Zerg.
This insectoid was extremely huge and was as tall as a two-story building. It was covered in a scarlet-golden armor. At this moment, its armor was shattered and its wings were broken.
Besides that, there were many broken Immortal Artifacts that were scattered all over the place. Some of the blades were broken, and some of the handles of the hammers were broken. It wasn't difficult to imagine how horrifying the battle that once erupted here was.
At the end of the battlefield, there was a figure.
The moment he saw this figure, Su Ping felt as if he had seen it for ten thousand years.
It was an extremely imposing and majestic giant. His figure was like a perfectly straight mountain peak. His feet were on the ground, and his head was on the sky. He used the supreme strength in his back to hold up the sky!
His head was lowered, and his hair was messy. His ancient armor was broken, with countless wounds on it.
Even though the giant didn't have any life energy, Su Ping felt that the giant was standing there, as if it were standing still in the river of time, immortal and indestructible!
Bang!
Su Ping felt his heart was pounding uncontrollably. It was the same feeling he had when he met the elder of the Golden Crows, or even stronger. The elder of the Golden Crows had restrained his energy when he was with Su Ping. On the other hand, even though the giant had passed away, the giant was still exuding a horrifying aura of a deity!
"Deity King …"
Green Lady trembled the moment she saw him, and tears flowed out of her eyes.
The countless wounds on his body pained her. She had charged forward in the battle, but was later summoned by the Deity King after she was wounded. She was ordered to stay in the Deity Pill Temple and wait for the result.
She had waited for thousands of years!
But as it turned out … he was already gone.
"You asked me to wait, and I did …" Green Lady bit her lips. Her cheeks were covered in tears, and her eyes were filled with infinite sorrow.
"You promised me that you would take me to the Deity Dawn Realm and eat the candied haws of the Thundercloud Realm …" Green Lady covered her chest and found it hard to breathe.
It was a kind of heartache that made her feel as if her heart was cramping!
All the nerves in her body seemed to have been affected, and she couldn't help but curl her limbs in pain!
Green Lady bent over and wept silently.
Su Ping was in a trance as he looked at the Pill Fairy, who had been transcendent and otherworldly a moment ago. He couldn't imagine how deep the bond of thousands of years must have been.
How painful would it be to part like this?!
However, he knew that it must have been engraved in her bones and even her soul!
Su Ping was silent and didn't comfort her. He knew that any words of comfort would be meaningless at such a moment.
The magnificent giant was exactly the Twilight Deity King, the master of this divine residence, and a supreme expert in the Celestial State!
Even though he had been dead for thousands of years, his magnificent aura couldn't be hidden!
Very soon, Su Ping noticed that some dark shadows were radiating from the void behind the Twilight Deity King. There seemed to be an enormous hole there.
Intrigued, Su Ping couldn't help but ask, "Is that a Heavenly Pit?"
Green Lady was too immersed in grief to hear Su Ping's question.
Su Ping didn't disturb her anymore. He looked around and aimed at the bodies of the Abyssal Bugs. He summoned the Abyssal Bug and said, "I remember that you like to kill your own kind, don't you? Let's have a taste."
The Abyssal Bug was shocked by the magnificent body of the Twilight Deity King the moment it came out. It wasn't relieved until it realized that he was already dead. Hearing what Su Ping said, it glanced at the bodies of its own kind and widened its eyes in disbelief.
Soon, the shock turned into ecstasy. It flashed and lunged at the nearest golden-shelled bug, gnawing at it.
It began to bite the insect's broken internal organs, but the internal organs of the insect's body were also extremely tough. It was very difficult for the Abyssal Green-shelled Insect to eat it. It was like chewing a piece of beef.
However, it was smart enough to swallow them without chewing too much. After all, its stomach acid was far more terrifying than its sharp teeth.
"Huh?"
Right then, Su Ping suddenly felt a strong force pushing toward him. He was startled and his hair stood on end. He hurriedly turned around, but he couldn't see anything.
"Senior, the three invaders are probably coming!"
Although he couldn't see them, Su Ping could guess who else could be so rampant in the divine residence except for the three Ascendant State experts.
They were like stars that caused a huge impetus when they moved, while he was just a speck of dust.
If it weren't for Green Lady's stealth technique, Su Ping would have been exposed to the three Ascendant State experts.
Hearing Su Ping's anxious telepathic message, Green Lady woke up from her sorrow. She changed her expression and made a decision within one ten-thousandth of a second.
Whoosh!
The Abyssal Bug that was gnawing on the golden-shelled bugs disappeared together with the corpses; it was multiple times faster than when Su Ping summoned it back!
In the meantime, she and Su Ping disappeared from the spot, then reappeared inside the broken body of a dragon.
Three seconds after they disappeared, a few people rushed over; they were none other than the three Ascendant State experts.
They were accompanied by their battle pets, but they had all recalled the support pets. Only the Ascendant State pets stayed with them in case of an ambush.
"Huh?"
The leader stopped at the edge of the battlefield and looked over the Void Battlefield that was littered with corpses. He frowned slightly. When he saw the towering figure at the end of the battlefield, his face couldn't help but change color. His eyes became much more dignified, but there was also a hint of surprise hidden in them.
The other two Ascendant State experts next to him reacted the same way. They looked at each other and saw that they were wary of each other.
After a quick glance, they determined that the ancient being was probably a real Celestial State expert that was beyond the Ascendant State!
"That ancient corpse must be the master of this divine residence."
"I didn't expect it to still be so intimidating after such a long time. It's truly indestructible!"
"That's the Celestial State … a level that we can never reach."
The three Ascendant State experts looked at the Twilight Deity King's body with mixed feelings.
Even someone as strong as him had died in the end.
"Guys, this is the body of a Celestial State expert, and it's well-preserved. There must be a lot of secrets hidden inside. Maybe we can see the secrets of the Celestial State through its internal structure. Why don't we divide it into three parts? That way, we won't have to fight each other!"
One of them, an old man with snow-white hair who looked very refined, said with a smile.
Another red-haired young man raised his eyebrows and said casually, "It's so well-preserved. Wouldn't it be a shame if we destroyed it? Why don't we check it out together? We'll decide how to split the spoils later. "
"That's a good idea."
A woman with blue hair agreed. Her skin was as fair as snow, and she looked down on everything in the world. However, her eyes were deep and profound, as if she had lived a long time.
After reaching a consensus, the three of them rushed to the Twilight Deity King's body without further delay.
They didn't try to hide their conversation. Perhaps they were too focused on the Twilight Deity King's body to pay attention to anything else. However, Su Ping heard what they said. They were all speaking in the Common Tongue of the Federation.
"…"
Su Ping had an indescribable feeling. The Twilight Deity King must have been one of the greatest heroes in the world when he was alive. Yet, his body was going to be divided after his death. How humiliating was that?
However, Su Ping couldn't say anything. After all, the three Ascendant State experts were there for treasure hunting.
"What are they talking about?" Green Lady turned around and looked at Su Ping.
She noticed the change in Su Ping's face and guessed that he could understand their language.
"Well …" Su Ping didn't know what to say. Considering Green Lady's feelings for the Twilight Deity King, she would probably burst into fury if she heard what the three Ascendant State experts said.
If she were to rush out in a fit of rage, not only would she not be able to run away, he would also be killed.
After all, the Ascendant State expert had allowed the small fries to enter because he knew that they could only pick up the garbage outside. Then, he would definitely be searched and killed after discovering that the small fries had gone to such a deep place!
"Well …"
While Su Ping was thinking about what to say, a deafening explosion burst out.
Su Ping and Green Lady looked at the same time, only to see divine light bursting out of the Twilight Deity King's chest. The broken armor that was full of wounds had reached its limit and was falling apart.
After a boom, a dragon roared and dashed out of the Deity King's broken chest, before it charged in again.
Su Ping was dumbfounded.
The three of them had reached a consensus so quickly that he thought that they would divide the loot peacefully. He didn't expect that a battle would break out the moment they entered the Deity King's body.
It was true that nobody could resist ultimate treasures, no matter how high their cultivation was.
Sometimes, temperament had nothing to do with cultivation, just like quality had nothing to do with wealth.
