Those who had arrived earlier than Long Yu and Xi Yangwu had probably relied on luck. However, Long Yu didn't want to take the risk before he was certain of the other party's cultivation.
After all, although Long Yu had stepped into the late Emperor Realm, he still wasn't strong enough to fight against a Peak Emperor Realm or even an Emperor Realm martial cultivator.
As soon as Long Yu sensed that there were people in front of him, he immediately activated Balanced Control to hide himself and Xi Yangwu so that they wouldn't be discovered.
The two of them moved forward and soon discovered that there were two groups of martial cultivators in the main hall of the First Palace. There were four people in total and all of them were late Emperor Realm martial cultivators!
Among them, two middle-aged men were human martial cultivators while the other two young men were Yao cultivators. The two sides were facing each other near the Nine Serenities Crystal in the center of the main hall and seemed to be discussing something.
Long Yu and Xi Yangwu quietly approached. The four people didn't notice them at all. Soon, the two of them heard that the four people were discussing the ownership of the Nine Serenities Crystal in the center of the main hall.
The crystal that Nine Nether had condensed was a rhombus-shaped black crystal. In addition to being able to open the Final Profound Palace, absorbing the energy within could also allow a cultivator to fuse with their Shadow attribute divine runes. It was a type of fusion treasure, so it was also useful to ordinary Martial Cultivators.
"These two middle-aged men are elders of the Taiwu Empire, one of the six sects and ten countries. The two Yao cultivators are elders of another Yao cultivator sect of the six sects and ten countries. It seems that they don't have a good relationship … "
Long Yu narrowed his eyes and transmitted to Xi Yangwu.
Xi Yangwu's eyes lit up, "You want to split them up and deal with them separately? First join forces with the human martial cultivators and kill the two Yao cultivators? "
"Your plan is generally correct but there's one thing you're wrong about."
The corner of Long Yu's mouth curved slightly, "I don't want to deal with the Yao cultivators first. I want to deal with the two human martial cultivators first!"
In next to no time, Long Yu had figured out the entire plan and was prepared to carry it out. To him, even if the plan failed, it wouldn't be life-threatening. But once it succeeded, he would be able to easily obtain the crystal condensed by the Nine Hells and kill these four fellows before him!
The four people from the Tai Wu Empire and the demon cultivator sects were in a heated argument over the ownership of Nine Underworlds' condensed crystal. Suddenly, Long Yu's figure appeared at the side.
"Everyone, I didn't expect to meet you here …"
As soon as Long Yu appeared, his eyes were fixed on the two middle-aged men from the Grand Wu Empire. His eyes were filled with hatred. "Two Senior Demonic Cultivators, the people of the Grand Wu Empire have always been cunning. Why don't we join forces and get rid of them? As for the condensed crystal in the middle, it's useless to me. You all know that I've long since fused with the shadow-attribute divine runes! "
When Long Yu appeared, Xi Yangwu was naturally by his side as well. As soon as these words came out, all four people in the field were shocked!
No one doubted the truth of Long Yu's words because everyone knew that there was a deep hatred between Long Yu and the Grand Wu Empire. Moreover, in the competition between the strongest Martial Emperors, the power he had displayed was definitely the power of the shadow-attribute divine runes.
The two young Demonic Cultivators looked at each other and saw a hint of cunning in each other's eyes.
"We're evenly matched with these two fellows from the Grand Wu Empire. That's why we wanted to settle this peacefully … Now that Long Yu has come, this kid's strength isn't bad. If we join forces with him, we'll definitely be able to kill these two fellows from the Grand Wu Empire!"
One of the young Demonic Cultivators used a special method to silently transmit his words to the other young Demonic Cultivator's ears!
"That's right. As for this Long Yu, although he's very strong, it's definitely impossible for him to deal with us together. Let's first kill the two from the Grand Wu Empire with him, then we'll deal with this kid. That way, we'll be able to kill them all!"
The other young Demonic Cultivator conveyed this message. It could almost be said that the two young Demonic Cultivators and Long Yu had hit it off completely. They did not suspect Long Yu at all, nor were they worried that Long Yu would turn against them after killing the two from the Grand Wu Empire.
This was because their strength was definitely enough to completely suppress Long Yu. Moreover, everyone knew that Long Yu and the people from the Grand Wu Empire had a grudge against each other!
After all, they were existences in the Late-stage of the Martial Emperor Realm. These two Demonic Cultivators from a Demonic Cultivator Sect were still very strong. As long as Long Yu was holding them back, it would be a piece of cake for them to kill the two from the Grand Wu Empire.
"Kid, you're right. In that case, let's join forces to deal with the people from the Grand Wu Empire first. Later on, you'll have to give us the condensed crystal."
As soon as one of the young Demonic Cultivators finished speaking, he immediately transformed into his original form, which turned out to be a green lynx. His figure flashed and he activated the power of the Fiery Divine Runes. A circle of flames rose around him and trapped the entire area!
In the Secluded Palace where the Divine Runes of Space could not be used, it was very difficult for ordinary people to escape after being trapped by the Fiery Divine Runes. The only way out was to kill the person who had used the Fiery Divine Runes.
When the two from the Grand Wu Empire saw that Long Yu had joined forces with the two Demonic Cultivators, they immediately panicked. However, these two were not ordinary people. They had lived for one or two hundred years, so how could they not have some tricks up their sleeves?
"Long Yu, the Grand Wu Empire has suffered a lot in your hands, but you haven't suffered any losses. Why do you have to fight with us like this?"
One of the middle-aged men said in a low voice, "Why don't we join forces and kill these two Demonic Cultivators? As for the condensed crystal, we'll give it to you!"
As soon as these words came out, the two Demonic Cultivators immediately frowned.
Their strength was comparable to the two from the Grand Wu Empire. There was no doubt that as long as Long Yu was willing to help one side, that side would be able to tilt the scales in the direction of victory!
However, to the two Demonic Cultivators' relief, Long Yu directly rejected the Grand Wu Empire's offer!
"Haha, the Grand Wu Empire's Grand Wu Abyss once threatened me and wanted to take me into the Grand Wu Empire … Later, they sent dozens of Martial Emperor powerhouses to encircle me. If it weren't for the fact that I, Long Yu, have some tricks up my sleeves, I would have fallen into your hands long ago. I don't even know if I'm still alive or dead. I'm sure my fate would have been extremely miserable …"
Long Yu said coldly, "What else do I have to say to the Grand Wu Empire?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Long Yu opened his mouth and a Dragon's Breath of the Nine Underworlds shot towards one of the Grand Wu Empire's middle-aged men, exuding a terrifying aura of destruction!
The two Demonic Cultivators did not hesitate for long when they saw Long Yu attack. One of them, a Flaming Mountain Cat Demonic Cultivator, continuously unleashed his divine flame abilities. Although most of them were only Eighth or Ninth Heaven advanced divine abilities and not Imperial Path divine abilities, due to the Flaming Mountain Cat Demonic Cultivator's late-stage Martial Emperor cultivation base, the power displayed was extremely powerful. At the very least, it was a power that Long Yu could not face head-on for the time being.
Long Yu paid some attention to this. He needed to understand the fighting style of these two Demonic Cultivators and come up with a way to restrain them. Otherwise, once the two from the Grand Wu Empire died, the next to die would be Long Yu.
Although Long Yu had stepped into the late-stage Martial Emperor realm, there was still a considerable gap between him and a late-stage Martial Emperor realm expert. His basic strength alone was twenty to thirty times weaker than a late-stage Martial Emperor realm expert, which was very difficult to make up for with other factors.
Unless he grasped the weaknesses of these two Demonic Cultivators and killed them with a surprise attack, it would be very difficult to kill them. It should be known that the physical strength of a Demonic Cultivator was generally stronger than that of a human Martial Cultivator. It was already difficult to kill them. Moreover, in the Serene Palace, all Divine Texts of the Space Attribute could not be used. Of course, Long Yu could not use the Void Splitting Slash.
The other Demonic Cultivator mainly grasped the Divine Text of the Berserker Attribute. It turned out to be a Berserk Bull Demonic Cultivator. After transforming into its true form, it kept rampaging around, forcing the two from the Grand Wu Empire to constantly dodge.
If they were hit by this Berserk Bull, the bodies of the two from the Grand Wu Empire would definitely not be able to withstand it. At the very least, they would be severely injured!
The two men from the Extreme Wu Empire saw that the situation was getting out of hand, but they had no choice but to give up. Since the two demon cultivators were unable to kill them in such a short time, they might as well take this opportunity to kill Long Yu first!
As long as they killed Long Yu, the two of them would definitely not be at a disadvantage against the two Demonic Cultivators!
The two of them, one above and one below, flew swiftly towards Long Yu. One of them held a long staff in his hand. The long staff in his hand gave rise to a gust of wind and shadows of the staff flew towards Long Yu.
The other person held a longbow in his hand and constantly dodged the attacks of the Demonic Cultivators. At the same time, he suddenly shot three Flowing Light Arrows at Long Yu. These three arrows were aimed at Long Yu's heart, Dantian, and head. Moreover, these arrows could automatically track their targets.
Even though Long Yu had changed his position, these three arrows still shot towards Long Yu. They were like maggots attached to bones, like a shadow following the body, and their speed was extremely fast!
"Since I can't dodge them, I'll just have to take them head-on!"
Long Yu tried to dodge twice and found that he could not avoid them. He made up his mind, and dozens of Fallen Dark Stars quickly condensed and flew towards the weak points of the three arrows before exploding!
Immediately afterward, Long Yu condensed the Death Qi wrapped around his body and surrounded the three arrows. After being weakened by the Death Qi, the power of the three arrows was reduced by half again.
Finally, the Barrier of Death!
The three arrows directly penetrated Long Yu's Barrier of Death and shot at Long Yu's hands and left leg respectively. However, the three arrows, which had been weakened by layers upon layers, did not cause any damage to Long Yu!
On one hand, Yu Long's physique had been strengthened further after taking the Dragon Form Ancient Pill. On the other hand, the Fallen Dark Star had blasted the arrows' weak points and the Death Qi around him had weakened their attack by half, greatly reducing the power of the three arrows!
In the end, Long Yu actually withstood the direct attack of these three arrows. One had to know that these three arrows were the innate abilities of the Imperial Late-stage Martial Emperor Realm Elder from the Taiwu Empire. They were already high-level Martial Emperors!
"How is this possible?"
The middle-aged Imperial Elder from the Taiwu Empire who shot the arrows saw this and his expression changed drastically. He never thought that his Three Deadly Arrows would have no effect on Long Yu.
What kind of terrifying technique did Long Yu possess to be able to weaken his arrows to such an extent?
Right at this moment, the Nine Nether Aura emanated from Long Yu's body, "Origin Energy, Nine Nether Deterrence!"
