Although Mad Monk Daxing's words were a little exaggerated, the truth was not far off.
Profound Paradise had high hopes for the Martial Overlord and Celestial Dragon True Emperor. Whether or not Profound Paradise and Profound Heaven's Immortal Dao could survive depended on these two.
The divine intents of the Martial Monarch and Celestial Dragon True Emperor were in Devil King Xue He's grasp on the grotto's lifeline.
If Demon King Blood River directly killed the two avatars, Mysterious Paradise wouldn't be too worried. Losing an avatar might affect the Martial Emperor's true body to a certain extent, but it wouldn't be too big of an impact. The Martial Emperor and the Martial Emperor's true body would be able to withstand it.
However, Devil King Xue River didn't directly kill their avatars. Instead, he used his strange flame to refine their divine intents.
Although the Martial Emperor had long erased the secrets of his true body from his external incarnation, his external incarnation was, after all, born from his light bloodline and Heavenly Dragon Tyrant Body. Some secrets could not be completely erased. Moreover, the self-consciousness of the external incarnation was also a part of the true body's divine sense. Even if the memories of the true body's secrets were erased, it was still possible to deduce the secrets of the true body through divine sense.
Though the chances of this were low, it didn't mean that it was impossible.
This was what Profound Paradise was most afraid of.
If Devil Emperor Blood River were to directly refine the Divine Sense of Emperor Musashi and King Wu Zang, it would be a happy ending.
Even if Devil King Xue River were to use their divine intents to calculate the secrets of the two's true bodies, Profound Paradise would have to think of another way to deal with it.
However, Devil King Xue River didn't directly refine them. Instead, he used his strange flame to burn the two's divine intents. This was akin to boiling a frog in warm water. It was a painful torture for both the two's true bodies and the seniors in Profound Paradise.
This was akin to a prisoner being sentenced to death and brought to the execution ground. The executioner only held the butcher's knife to the prisoner's neck but didn't chop it down for a long time.
If the knife were to chop down, the prisoner's family would be filled with grief and despair. However, they could only resign themselves to fate.
If the knife didn't cut down for a long time, it would undoubtedly be a painful torture for the prisoner's family.
Right now, Emperor Musashi and Emperor Xue He were like criminals, Devil King Blood River was the executioner, and Mysterious Paradise was the family of the criminals.
Originally, when Emperor Musashi and Emperor Xue He had fallen into Demon Emperor Xue He's hands, Mystical Paradise was already prepared to give up on the two's avatars.
Helplessly.
The Devil Emperor Blood River was boiling a frog in warm water. He didn't directly kill it or refine it. Instead, he burned it with a strange flame on purpose.
It wasn't that the old seniors of Mysterious Paradise didn't know that Devil Emperor Blood River was using this method to force them to show themselves.
To tell the truth.
If it was possible, the seniors from Profound Paradise would have shown up when Heavenly Dragon True Emperor and Blood River were fighting. In fact, they should have shown up the moment the Devil King appeared.
The reason why the old seniors of the Mysterious Paradise did not show up was not because they did not want to or did not dare to, but because they could not.
They were not afraid of Devil Emperor Blood River.
Others might not know this.
Grand Monk Grand Traverser knew that the old seniors of Mysterious Paradise, especially the Mysterious Nine Immortals, had unfathomable cultivation. In a one-on-one fight, they might not be a match for Devil King Blood River. However, if they worked together, they would definitely be able to deal with Devil King Blood River. Even if they only summoned their nine avatars, it wouldn't be difficult for them to deal with Devil King Blood River's avatar.
Grand Traverser knew that the nine immortals were capable of this.
Unfortunately …
Devil King Blood River wasn't the only one here.
There was also Buddhist Emperor Miraculous Rulai.
From the very beginning, this fellow had been sitting cross-legged on the palm of the giant Buddha, acting as if this matter had nothing to do with him. It was really hard to fathom him.
However, if one thought that Rulai was someone who didn't mind watching a show, then they would be gravely mistaken.
Everyone knew that Miraculous Rulai coveted the Original Sin True Lord. Now that the Ancient Desolate Nine Palaces had appeared, Miraculous Rulai did not snatch the opportunity of Original Sin. Instead, he stayed here to watch the show. There had to be a reason behind this.
Either Marvelous Rulai wanted to use Mysterious Paradise to destroy Devil Emperor Blood River, or he wanted to use Devil Emperor Blood River to destroy Mysterious Paradise. Another possibility was that he wanted to wait for Mysterious Paradise and Devil Emperor Blood River to fight each other to the bitter end, and then reap the benefits.
Even more frightening was the number of Great Dao experts hibernating in the void of the Palace of Kan. Perhaps Lord Black Mountain of Demon Dao, Forefather Green Lamp of Ghost Dao, and even Grand Sun Glorious Emperor of Immortal Dao were lurking in the dark.
The nine palaces were filled with Rulai's avatars.
At the same time, the avatars of Grand Sun King, Lord Black Mountain, and Forefather Green Lamp were everywhere.
Even Mad Monk Daxing's avatars were all over the nine palaces. This was because he was also an avatar while his true body was always with Gu Qingfeng at the Li Palace.
In Mad Monk Daxing's opinion, once Devil King Blood River and Mysterious Paradise started fighting, it wouldn't just be a battle of avatars against avatars, but a battle of true bodies against true bodies. Everyone knew what kind of person Devil King Blood River was. Once he decided to attack, rivers of blood would flow. His true body would also appear to fight Mysterious Paradise with all his might. As long as Devil King Blood River's true body appeared, the Mysterious Nine Immortals of Mysterious Paradise would also go all out, including the legendary guardians of the immortal dao, Immortal Elder Tai Xuan and Immortal Elder Tai Miao, and Immortal Elder Xuan Tian.
When the time came.
Those experts of the grand dao hiding in the shadows wouldn't just watch from the shadows like they were now. They would definitely make a move.
After all, Mysterious Paradise was the guardian of the grand dao. If they could take advantage of this opportunity to destroy it, it would be good news for those who coveted Original Sin True Lord.
Moreover, Grand Sun King has been wanting to destroy Mysterious Paradise for the immortal dao for a long time now. If Devil King Blood River were to go to war with Mysterious Paradise, he wouldn't let go of such a great opportunity.
Most importantly, Mysterious Paradise groomed the Martial Monarch and Heavenly Dragon True Emperor. These two existences were a threat to those who coveted Original Sin True Lord as well as those who protected the grand dao.
Perhaps this was all part of someone's plan from the very beginning. They wanted to use Devil King Blood River to destroy Profound Grotto and eliminate the potential threat of Martial Monarch and Celestial Dragon True Emperor.
After careful consideration, this wasn't impossible.
At the very least, Mad Monk Daxing suspected that someone was behind today's events.
