Episode 18 – Chapter 12 – Taking a Step Back
On the enormous Exalted Celestial Mountain, the current state of the Godkings was somewhat laughable. Sixteen Godkings formed a great formation array and stood before the Relief Sculpture Tunnel. There were also several Godkings with weaker strength that were hiding within the Relief Sculpture Tunnel. They feared that Luo Fan would come and kill them.
As for Jiang Lan, Zuo Qiulin, Yi Feng and close to ten other powerful Godkings, they were gathered together. They did not fear Luo Fan coming to kill them. Luo Fan did not possess the ability to instantly kill Jiang Lan and them. Moreover … behind Jiang Lan, Yi Feng and them was Qin Yu. He was also the person that Luo Fan feared the most.
When facing the Eight Great Sage Emperors, Luo Fan could escape with his speed.
However, when facing Qin Yu?
He would rather offend the Eight Great Sage Emperors than easily offend Qin Yu. This was the plan that Luo Fan had made in his heart. It wasn't that he feared Qin Yu. Instead, it was that he did not possess sufficient certainty in defeating Qin Yu.
One must not do things that one did not possess certainty in. Unless one was at the end of the rope and had to risk one's life!
*****
A misty cyan light illuminated the entire Exalted Celestial Mountain.
The Eight Great Sage Emperors and the Asura Godking Luo Fan all used their Divine Awareness to carefully observe the origin of the cyan light. However, as they followed the direction of the cyan light, they discovered that the origin was actually the floating slate. Merely, their Divine Awareness was unable to reach the floating slate. Thus, they did not know what sort of change had occurred to the floating slate.
"Everyone, let's stop for now. What do you all think?" The Asura Godking Luo Fan turned around and looked to the Eight Great Sage Emperors.
The Eight Great Sage Emperors looked to each other. There was a trace of anger in their eyes.
"If it wasn't for the fact that this Luo Fan possessed the Blood Ruler 'Life Breaker,' his speed would definitely not be able to surpass ours. He would also not be able to escape with his speed!" Zhou Huo, Jiang Fan and them all felt that this was unfair.
The Eight Great Sage Emperors were actually unable to catch Luo Fan when they attacked together.
Although their combined attack was powerful, Luo Fan's Time Stop, first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure and the defensive Spiritual Treasure on his body. Was more than enough to save his life.
"If this Luo Fan were to go all out …" Jiang Fan's heart trembled.
It was impossible for them to instantly kill Luo Fan. If Luo Fan and kill Luo and kill Luo Fan, then the Eight Great Sage Emperors would be killed Luo Fan would Three.
Three or four of them had died. Furthermore, it was up to Luo Fan to decide who would die!
The Eight Great Sage Emperors did not wish to die. They did not wish to risk their lives against Luo Fan.
"Luo Fan, if you have something to say, then say it quickly." Zhou Huo said in a clear voice. At the same time, the Eight Great Sage Emperors all stopped their attacks.
The corners of Luo Fan's mouth unconsciously curled into a smile.
It was exactly as planned.
"Let's not talk about our matters in a hurry. Right now, the floating stone slab seems to have undergone some changes. Let's go check out the floating slate first. After that, we can discuss our matter. What do you think? "As Luo Fan spoke, he gently swayed the Blood Ruler in his hand. It was as though he was prepared to attack at any moment.
The Eight Great Sage Emperors cursed in their hearts.
The Asura Godking who had comprehended 'Time Stop' was already frightening enough. That Chehou Yuan had actually given the Blood Ruler 'Life Breaker', which possessed astonishing offensive power, to the Asura Godking. Wasn't this like adding wings to a tiger?
"Alright, then we'll do as you say. Let's go see what exactly happened to the floating slate. After that, we will settle the matter between you and us Eight Great Sage Emperors. "Zhou Huo said coldly.
Luo Fan lightly smiled. After that, he waved his sleeve and turned into a ray of light, flying toward the summit of the Exalted Celestial Mountain. The Eight Great Sage Emperors glanced at each other. They all nodded in their hearts. After that, they also flew toward the summit of the Exalted Celestial Mountain.
"Let's also go and check it out." Yi Feng who had been watching the entire time also said with a smile.
Zuo Qiulin, Jiang Lan and the other relatively powerful Godkings all nodded. This group of people also turned into rays of light and flew toward the summit of the Exalted Celestial Mountain. As for the sixteen Godkings outside of the Relief Sculpture Tunnel, they did not dare to leave. They were afraid that Luo Fan would flee instead.
*****
On the grassland of the Purple Mystic Mansion's lakeside in the Fog City. Qin Yu and them were currently watching everything that had happened on the Exalted Celestial Mountain on the water screen.
"Eight Godkings. In merely a short period of time, eight Godkings have actually died. This Asura Godking is truly …" At this moment, Kuroh was still speechless. They had clearly seen the Asura Godking's massacre earlier.
In merely a short period of time, eight Godkings had died.
"This is merely the beginning." Qin Yu said with a light smile.
Qin Yu was able to see very clearly that although eight Godkings had died in succession earlier, it did not affect the other Godkings at all. This was especially true for the Eight Great Sage Emperors, they practically did not have any reaction at all. For those weak Godkings to attempt in vain to get their hands on the Exalted Celestial's Spiritual Treasure, who could they blame for their deaths?
"Floating slate?" Qin Yu's Spatial Energy covered the entire Exalted Celestial Mountain. Thus, he was naturally able to hear the conversation between Luo Fan and them.
Merely, the Spiritual Treasure Origin Cauldron and the Floating Slate were things that Qin Yu's Spatial Energy was unable to touch. As for what was written on the Floating Slate, Qin Yu also did not know.
The scene on the water screen changed. Many Godkings had flown to the summit of the Exalted Celestial Mountain. They were all looking at the Floating Slate that was emitting a boundless cyan light. Merely, Qin Yu was only able to simulate a single Floating Slate. As for what was written on the Floating Slate, Qin Yu was also unable to determine.
"Seeing the shocked expressions of Luo Fan, Jiang Fan and them, the content on the Floating Slate ought to have changed." Qin Yu guessed in his heart.
In the past, the Floating Slate was inscribed with seven rules. What about now? Exactly what was the content on the Floating Slate that could cause Luo Fan and them to be so shocked?
"Big brother, what is written on that Floating Slate?" Kuroh asked.
Qin Yu shook his head. "I also do not know."
"Dad, you can't see it either?" Qin Si's adorable brows were creased.
Qin Yu stroked Qin Si's little head. He smiled and said. "Little Si, dad is not omnipotent. The creator of the Exalted Celestial Mountain was stronger than your dad. "
Upon thinking of the creator of the Exalted Celestial Mountain, Qin Yu involuntarily thought of Lin Meng. Qin Yu was unable to completely understand the strength of this Lin Meng. However, the small portion of Lin Meng's strength that he had managed to sense was already enough to cause Qin Yu's heart to tremble.
Qin Yu's gaze turned to the water screen.
"What exactly is written on that floating stone slab?" Qin Yu frowned. Soon after, he began to carefully listen to the conversation between Luo Fan, the Eight Great Sage Emperors and them. Only by listening to their conversation would he be able to determine what exactly was written on the Floating Slate.
… …
Luo Fan, Zhou Huo, Jiang Fan and them, the Eight Great Sage Emperors, Zuo Qiulin, Yi Feng, Jiang Lan and them, An Xun, Sun Lian and Liu Lian, the three Godkings of the Asura Sea. This group of people all raised their heads to look at the Floating Slate.
Several lines of golden words appeared on the Floating Slate …
"The Exalted Celestial's Spiritual Treasure that the Spiritual Treasure Origin Cauldron is nurtured this time around is called the Living World Seal.
The Living World Seal is separated into three parts. They are respectively the Blue Sky Seal, Back Earth Seal and All People Seal. The Blue Sky Seal and the Back Earth Seal possess similar strength. Among the three seals, the All People Seal contains the most temporal laws and is the strongest! When someone obtains the three seals and fuses them into the Living World Seal. This person will become the new Exalted Celestial! "
These simple lines of words had caused Luo Fan and them to be suddenly enlightened.
"Blue Sky Seal, Back Earth Seal, All People Seal …" Luo Fan muttered in a low voice. His eyes were flickering with light. After knowing the strength of the three seals, he was able to change his plan.
At this moment, Jiang Fan was secretly delighted.
"It's exactly the same as I had imagined. The strongest and most important seal is indeed the last part, the All People Seal! With the Thunder Punishment Exalted Celestial acting, this All People Seal is mine! "
Jiang Fan was filled with confidence.
Even an Asura Godking was able to cause the Eight Great Sage Emperors to be in such a sorry state. If the Thunder Punishment Exalted Celestial were to act, who would be able to withstand him? The All People Seal would definitely belong to him, Jiang Fan.
"Haha …"
Suddenly, a loud and clear laughter resounded through the entire Exalted Celestial Mountain. Even the sixteen Godkings that were blocking the Relief Sculpture Tunnel started to extend their Divine Awareness to observe exactly what had happened.
"Zhou Huo, Jiang Fan, I also understand very well the request that the eight of you have for me. However, it is also impossible for me to give up the Back Earth Seal and All People Seal. However, if I were to truly risk my life against you all, I, Luo Fan, know my own capabilities. If I were to escape, I would not be able to escape. However, at the very least, half of you eight Sage Emperors would have to die. Do you all agree to this? "Luo Fan looked to the Eight Great Sage Emperors with a smile.
Jiang Fan, Zhou Huo and them were silent. Jiang Fan merely nodded his head to express his approval.
There was no doubt about this!
"You all said that I would not fight for the Back Earth Seal and All People Seal on the day they appear. This request is truly too harsh. How about this … from today until the birth of the new Exalted Celestial, I would not take a single step onto the Exalted Celestial Mountain. What do you all think? "Luo Fan looked to the Eight Great Sage Emperors with a smile on his face.
The Eight Great Sage Emperors were startled.
In an instant, the Eight Great Sage Emperors understood Luo Fan's intention.
After this Luo Fan obtained the Blue Sky Seal, he would not take a single step onto the Exalted Celestial Mountain before the birth of the new Exalted Celestial. Although he would not step onto the Exalted Celestial Mountain, Luo Fan could still wait outside the Relief Sculpture Tunnel.
"Waiting outside the Exalted Celestial Mountain is not that easy. This Luo Fan is not Qin Yu and cannot use Spatial Freezing. As long as I step out of the Relief Sculpture Tunnel and immediately use teleportation, I would still have a chance to escape. "Jiang Fan thought in his heart.
The other Sage Emperors were also considering Luo Fan's proposal.
As for Luo Fan, he looked to the Eight Great Sage Emperors with a smile on his face. He was quietly waiting for the Eight Great Sage Emperors' reply.
