Within the barrier, Yang Jian and the others were stunned. When they sensed the direction the newcomers were heading in, they instinctively moved aside and made way for Ye Zichen, who stood in their midst.
The stars kowtowed to the Emperor Star.
Gu Li stood in the darkness, his eyes filled with envy and bitterness. He was one of heaven's two chosen emperors, that much was true. However, from the looks of it, he hadn't touched even the slightest bit of the Emperor Star's fortune.
Now that the stars were kowtowing to Ye Zichen, it was a good comparison.
He'd been the one to open the God Emperor's Tomb, and he'd summoned the stars. However, the person they'd kowtowed to wasn't him, but Ye Zichen.
Disappointment was inevitable. After being chosen as one of heaven's two chosen emperors, Gu Li couldn't help but feel like he was the sole ruler of heaven and earth.
However, he wasn't the one to assist the Four Auxiliary Stars, and the Fated Stars never appeared by his side. It was as if he were invisible, and the Nirvana Stars had never shown him any favor.
Ever since then, he'd begun to suspect that he wouldn't be the one to truly receive the Emperor Star's fortune.
"Old man, it's not that I don't want to fight, it's that we're not fated to do so!"
Gu Li smiled bitterly. Outside, Gu Li had always wanted him to fight, to fight for the fortune of heaven and earth, to fight for that one position.
Unfortunately …..
The Myriad Stars had already made their choice!
"What are they doing?" Ye Zichen was astonished when he saw the Myriad Stars kowtow to him. He inexplicably felt a chill run down his spine. No wonder there'd always been strange activity in the Howling Gorge. Judging from the Myriad Stars' appearance, the Auxiliary Stars, the Fated Stars, and the Myriad Stars had all been buried here when the Master of the Second Era transformed into a star.
Somewhere.
No wonder the tomb had ended up here; it was all part of the Myriad Stars' plan.
In other words, they were standing on the Myriad Stars' graves?
The kowtowing lasted no more than a hundred breaths of time. Then, the Myriad Stars slowly vanished, followed by the women standing in front of them. Finally, the Four Auxiliary Stars.
The starlight dissipated, and the four Auxiliary Stars also disappeared.
However, the four Auxiliary Stars did not leave just like that. Instead, they flickered with light as they flew to the tomb's main entrance, landing in the four stone statues at the entrance.
The mountain-like tomb of the God Emperor rumbled, and countless rocks and dust fell from the top of the mountain.
The smoke became even more hazy under the illumination of the gradually dimming golden-red radiance.
At this moment, the main entrance of the tomb slowly opened. Even though it was a little dazzling outside, the light could not shine into the tomb at all. It was impossible to see what was inside the tomb with the naked eye.
"If you don't want Zhou Wu to see you here and expose your identity as the Emperor Star, then stay in the barrier."
By now, Gu Li had already appeared at the tomb's main entrance. An Lu and the two monarch-level attendants stood by his side. They entered the tomb without even looking back. Only then did Ye Zichen return to his senses and leave the barrier. Yang Jian and co. naturally followed closely behind him and stepped into the tomb.
The door of the tomb did not close. It was still wide open.
Not long after they entered, countless vortexes suddenly appeared in the sky.
Judging from their auras, any one of them was strong enough to destroy the entire lower plane with the wave of a hand.
When they sensed that someone of similar cultivation had appeared, they couldn't help but exchange glances. When they saw each other's faces clearly, some of them were astonished. Perhaps they were astonished at why this person had come.
Indeed, the tomb's appearance had brought quite a few reclusive old fellows into view.
Quite a few of them smiled or looked at each other with disgust.
However, they didn't interact much. After exchanging glances, they looked back at the tomb.
When they saw that the door was already open, they didn't hesitate at all. They dashed through it.
The God Emperor's tomb seemed to contain the entire world. Its doors were open to all visitors.
Several more tremors appeared in the void. This time, the people who stepped out were clearly of a much higher cultivation level than the people who had come before.
"Ocean Emperor!"
"Hermit Emperor!"
"Empress of the Fox Clan!"
"Xuan Ji, why are you here too?"
The newcomers were none other than Ye Zichen and the other great emperors of the Great Alliance. It was as if they'd agreed on this beforehand. They'd appeared one after the other, but only they knew better than anyone else that they'd never communicated with each other before this. The group chat didn't contain any information about them contacting each other.
It was all just a coincidence!
"Xue Yang, you bastard! Didn't you say you weren't coming?" Great Emperor Bi 'an pointed at Xue Yang and cursed. Although they hadn't contacted each other before this, they'd talked about the God Emperor's tomb a hundred years ago.
"Didn't you say you weren't interested in the tomb too?" roared Xue Yang, rolling his eyes.
"Big Sister Qingyan, why are you here too?" As the great emperors argued, Xuan Ji walked up to Su Qingyan and the head of the Fox Clan, Su Wan 'er. "If both of you come, what will happen to the Fox Clan?"
"Su Yan and Su Liu 'er are enough to support the entire clan," said Su Qingyan with a smile.
Su Yan had fused with the God of Life's godhead and become the God of Life. Su Liu 'er's Breath of Ice had improved tremendously, and she was now on par with Xuan Ji.
With the two of them overseeing the Fox Clan, they were as reassuring as the Fox Ancestor had been.
In the past, the Fox Clan had always relied on her and Su Wan 'er to support it. Now that they'd finally found two people capable of taking their place, the two sisters were relieved.
"I almost forgot about them," said Xuan Ji with a nod.
"Why are you here too? The way I see it, you shouldn't have any interest in this." The Jade Lake Palace Master suddenly walked up to them. The Great Emperors had already split into two factions.
The men's faction and the women's faction.
The Jade Lake Palace Master naturally came to Xuan Ji and the others.
"Of course I'm not interested. I'm here because someone told me to come," said Xuan Ji.
"You ran into that person too?" The Jade Lake Palace Master arched her brows. Little did she know, the Ocean Emperor and the other great emperors had hurried over. "Xuan Ji, you said someone told you to come?"
"That's right! Why? "Xuan Ji nodded.
"Me too!" Said the Ocean Emperor. "I ran into someone who told me to come here no matter what. He even told my true body to come here. That's why I sent my clone to the River Styx and my true body came here."
"Actually …. Us too," said Great Emperor Chao Feng, pointing at him and the Bi 'an Emperor.
"Me too!" said the Hermit Emperor.
