Chapter 4868: Dilemma
Calculating the time, it had been tens of thousands of years since the Lords of Death had entered the Primitive Abyss. With the talent of a Great Emperor, coupled with the vitality of this place, they naturally became human again.
There were a total of seven Great Emperors that had appeared on the battlefield at this moment, and they had all advanced further, advancing into the fourth tier.
After advancing to the fourth tier, it was as if these Great Emperors had been reborn. Their battle prowess was not much weaker than veteran Great Emperors like the Battle Saint Emperor.
Thus, with these seven Great Emperors holding the main force back, the old Divine Beast would be able to spare even more energy to break through the Cave of Death.
"So far, why has only the old Divine Beast grasped three elements, while the other Great Emperors only have one element?" Ling Han asked curiously.
Theoretically speaking, the Battle Saint Emperor and the others had already been here for hundreds of billions of years, so they should have long since grasped all three of the fundamental elements.
The Battle Saint Emperor shook his head, and said, "The four elements are one and the same, and they repel each other. It’s impossible to grasp two or more at the same time."
"But how could the old Divine Beast do that?" Ling Han asked.
"This is also what I want to know," the Battle Saint Emperor said. "Later, when we found out about you, we asked around, and thought that this was also the key to the old Divine Beast being able to create the 36 Divine Beasts."
The old Divine Beast was so capable, that it could suppress all the Great Emperors?
Those who could become Emperor were the most outstanding existences. Whether it was willpower, toughness, or comprehension ability, all of them were top-notch. Only one could appear in a single era.
And now, there was an old Divine Beast that had completely crushed all the other Great Emperors, leaving them in the dust.
Ling Han found this inconceivable.
What secrets were the old Divine Beast hiding?
In the past, this old Divine Beast had even barged into the Divine Beast Graveyard. After that, the corpses of the Divine Beasts had disappeared, so why did he want those corpses?
This was something that only the old Divine Beast knew, and he obviously could not possibly tell this to a wide audience.
"Don’t worry about this. Let’s fight first," the Battle Saint Emperor roared, and was the first to charge into the battle.
Buddha Doga laughed loudly, and also charged over.
Ling Han’s fighting spirit was ignited. With a battle cry, he charged towards the Blood Demon Ancestor.
"It’s you!" When the Blood Demon Ancestor saw Ling Han, her killing intent immediately blazed.
Ling Han smiled calmly, and said, "Now you all know that I have not deceived you. On the contrary, the one who has deceived you is that old Divine Beast!" ṚΑ𐌽ỒβĘṩ
The Blood Demon Ancestor did not speak. After coming to the Imperial Island, they naturally knew that they had been deceived for a long time.
However, now that things had come to this, there was no way back for them. They could only follow the old Divine Beast all the way to the end.
According to the words of the old Divine Beast, after opening the Cave of Death, the four elements would cause a great collision, and it would be easy to grasp them again.
Thus, when the time came, the Great Emperors would be able to grasp all four of the key elements, and even manifest the key elements.
What did this signify?
Every Great Emperor could transform into a universe that could accommodate all things in the world, and become a true ruler, indestructible for all eternity.
"Ling Han, now that we have dealt with the hidden danger, and grasped the essence of life, let us battle again, and see if I will kill you!" The Blood Demon Ancestor ignored his words, and directly charged over.
Hong! Hong! Hong!
She was now in the fourth tier, and even if she hadn’t grasped the essence of life to the extreme, her battle prowess was much stronger than before.
More importantly, she no longer had any worries, and could attack to her heart’s content.
Ling Han merely smiled. In truth, he had advanced into fourth tier earlier than the other. Furthermore, he had grasped another nine-star Regulation, so his comprehension of the element of life was even deeper.
Moreover, Ling Han had cultivated to the pinnacle level of every major tier before, so what Great Emperor could compare to him?
Who was afraid of whom?
Ling Han shot out a punch. Peng, the Blood Demon Ancestor couldn’t block it at all, and her whole body was sent flying backwards.
Right now, he already possessed the strength to crush those at the early stage of the fourth tier.
"Ling Han!" More Lords of Death flew over, launching attacks at him.
"Defeated opponents!" Ling Han said calmly. He swung his fists repeatedly. Peng, peng, peng! Even if the seven Lords of Death joined forces, so what? They could only be sent flying everywhere by his attacks.
However, this place was filled with vitality, and these Great Emperors had also grasped the foundations of this universe. They only had to extract a bit of it to heal themselves, and they would naturally recover immediately.
—Otherwise, the Battle Saint Emperor and the others would have long since been eliminated by the old Divine Beast.
There were only two ways to completely kill these Great Emperors that had grasped the essence of life.
Firstly, he had to cultivate the essence of death.
The second option was for them to leave this island.
At present, the Great Emperors could only use the essence of life, and once they left this island, without a large amount of essence of life, they would not be able to revive themselves either.
Thus, Ling Han faced the attacks of the seven Lords of Death. Though he had an advantage in terms of battle prowess, he was still unable to eliminate them.
Previously, it was the old Divine Beast’s battle prowess that was overwhelming, and the Great Emperors could only drag things out. Now, it was the other way round. Wanting to destroy the Lords of Death?
It would be difficult!
After Ling Han battled for several days, he withdrew from the battle.
A battle like this was too meaningless. Furthermore, even if he killed all the Lords of Death, so what? Would he be able to stop the old Divine Beast?
Only by grasping more key elements could he truly stand against the old Divine Beast. frёeweovel_coɱ
Ling Han was definitely not the only one who had thought of this. However, just as the Battle Saint Emperor had said, the four fundamentals were the foundations that formed heaven and earth. No Great Emperor could cultivate two or more.
Aside from the old Divine Beast.
With Ling Han’s personality, he naturally had to give it a try.
He was still in the Cave of Life, and first raised his grasp of the essence of life to the extreme.
This took him 700,000 years, and he finally reached the consummate level of the fourth tier.
At this time, Ding Shu and the other Genesis World Masters successfully broke through to Emperor Tier.
Very good, they finally had strong reinforcements on their side.
It could be imagined that even more Great Emperors would appear in the future, joining the team that was fighting against the old Divine Beast.
Ling Han left the Cave of Life. This time, he went to the Cave of Destruction.
He had grasped Destructive Energy, so the second type of foundation stone of heaven and earth that he wanted to grasp was naturally the element of destruction.
Sitting down on his knees, Ling Han began to appreciate the element of destruction.
However, there was already one Element of Life in his body, and this was filled with repulsion towards the other three Elements. Thus, Ling Han had just come into contact with the Element of Destruction, when he was barraged by the Element of Life, and was completely unable to comprehend.
The essence of destruction was no weaker than the essence of life, but now, the power of the essence of life was endless, while the essence of destruction had to start from zero, so how could it resist the essence of life?
Thus, the Battle Saint Emperor said that any Great Emperor would only be able to grasp one key element, and could not cultivate two or more at the same time.
After hundreds of millions of years, all the Great Emperors were only in the fourth tier, and this was clear proof.
Ling Han suddenly stopped, a deep frown on his face.
Could it be that it was really impossible?
Although the old Divine Beast’s progress was slow, there would eventually come a day when he would open the Cave of Death and grasp the key element of death, achieving his goal.
Thus, even if the empress and the others had all become Emperors, that would only push back the day that this day would come slightly. It was still impossible to stop it entirely.
Ling Han was definitely unwilling to wait for death.
He possessed Destructive Energy, so he should have a chance!
