"Elder sis…"
As the Immortal Emperors hurriedly tried to make sense of the situation while the life tablets of their disciples still kept cracking, a white-robed woman stepped forward.
She was none other than Rea Tyriel.
Rea Tyriel was one of the only few youths who were present here.
She was here to accompany her elder sister Raelyn Tyriel. Still, she stayed in the battleship for a long time before finally deciding to go see her one last time, but it was already too late as the participants seemed to have entered the secret realm.
Due to her identity of being an immortal inheritor of the Lunar Crow Clan, she didn't have the opportunity to enter this secret realm, but at this moment, with her elder sister in danger, she clenched her teeth and turned into a ray of golden-black light.
*Whoosh!~*
"Rea! Don't!"
The Tyriel Family's Patriarch shouted at his daughter, intending to stop her, but he was already too late, causing Rea Tyriel to pass through the barrier.
*Bang!~*
But the moment she passed through the spatial vortex, even causing it to ripple as though it was swallowing her as it did for the participants, her figure reappeared, spitting a mouthful of blood as she returned flying through the air before her father caught her.
"Rea!"
Tyriel Family's Patriarch coddled his daughter in his arms as he looked at her right arm appear swollen and red as though she rammed into something, breaking her bones, yet he knew the impact of it caused her internals to rupture a bit as it sent her flying as he checked her with worry.
"What? How come she couldn't pass through?"
"No, she passed through, but it seemed like something repelled her back…"
The others speculated, appearing confused, while Rea Tyriel clenched her teeth and tried to stand up.
"Barrier… there's a powerful barrier set up on the other side…"
"…!?"
Rea Tyriel's words caused the others to become shocked.
"What are you saying? Are you sure that you hit a barrier and not a path that was segregated into two as you hit the wall in the center?"
Patriarch Asta Rubyshroud asked while the others had similar questions.
If there had been a barrier, why weren't their youngsters affected? Wouldn't they have already been sent back by the barrier as they spit a mouthful of blood?
"You imbecile-"
"And no one's there…"
Tyriel Family's Patriarch had just clenched his teeth with fury when Rea Tyriele spoke up, interrupting her father as she had a solemn expression on her face.
"… not even the last person who entered…"
"…!"
The hearts of the Immortal Emperors shook. There was no one near the entrance?
Some Patriarchs shuddered as they personally told their disciples to remain near the secret entrance to allow the strong ones to pave the path for them so that they could obtain hidden treasures or entrap them and plunder from them.
After all, this was how it would go, even if they didn't want to.
However, this wasn't in their plans.
How come no one was near the entrance? Not even the aboriginals? Things instantly became a hundred times creepier for them.
In the next few minutes, they sent a few youths to check the secret realm, but they learned that Rea Tyriel was right. The entrance was indeed sealed, disallowing any of them to pass.
Their expressions turned ugly as the vexing sounds of life tablets cracking echoed incessantly like it was from their nightmares. Some of them even barred their fangs against Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus, but he was ultimately protected by the Dragon, Phoenix, and Kirin Alliances, stating this wasn't the time to bother about fighting amongst each other but to be saving their disciples.
"Begone!"
Abruptly, an Old Ancestor from the Fire Dragon Family roared, causing the others to feel their scalps turn numb as they hurriedly moved away from the entrance. Even the Tyriel Family's Patriarch moved out of the way with his daughter.
Level Eight Immortal Emperor Stage undulations overflowed, causing the underground cave to shudder as blazing fires swept above, forming the head of a giant dragon, its expression full of savagery.
The Immortal Emperors became shocked at this scene as they saw the Fire Dragon Clan's Old Ancestor practically sacrifice his decrepit human life that was already spent to unleash an attack at the spatial vortex, which already caused Immortal Emperors to explode, at least according to Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus.
They looked at him for confirmation, but the Fire Dragon Clan's Old Ancestor unleashed his technique, causing the tyrannical dragon head made up of fire dragon's flames to open its jaws and crash into the spatial vortex, causing the sound to momentarily disappear and a flash of light to blind everyone.
*BOOOM!~*
Tens of thick barriers appeared around the spatial vortex, enduring and trapping the explosion inside as the Old Ancestors figured that this would increase the attack's prowess while protecting the underground cave at the same time.
After some time, the explosion finally receded while the Fire Dragon Clan's Old Ancestor was still alive, but one could see that he used his full power to attack the spatial vortex. But even then, their expressions became more unsightly as they saw that the spatial vortex didn't even let out a ripple at the remnant flames still clinging onto the mystical fabric of the spatial vortex.
It didn't even let the attack pass through, making them reel in disbelief at its endurance.
That was an attack at the Level Nine Immortal Emperor Stage! Its prowess was even boosted by compression! For it to not work, should they call experts above the Old Ancestors?
They were too stunned to speak or process what their next move should be.
*Kacha!~*
ƥandasnovel.com "Dammit…!"
Patriarch Killian Zenflame roared as he saw that two of these five youths' life tablets also broke. He really wanted to roar that it was the Emperor of Death, but at this point, he didn't think that he would be that kind of madman, moving on to offend all the powers present here.
After all, wouldn't he have to return here? If it was found out that he killed them all, then he should understand that his life was forfeit as the powers wouldn't allow this kind of tyranny to exist in a normal person, much less within an Anarchic Divergent.
They would do anything and everything to root that kind of person out, even if they were not evil.
"…"
Patriarch Killian Zenflame's eyes flashed, wanting to take advantage of this opportunity to seal Davis's fate.
"Shut up!"
However, even before he could speak, Patriarch Soaren Goldsun pointed at him, causing him to be stumped and furious, but before he could even retaliate, Patriarch Soaren Goldsun appeared grim as he turned to look at the others.
"Everyone, the situation has turned dire, but the rate of deaths has considerably dropped per minute. I think our youths have managed to successfully escape whatever is hunting them down..."
"…"
The other Patriarchs turned to look at him, a few amazed that the madman could remain calm in this situation. Learning from him, they clenched their teeth and began to discuss if there was any way possible to send reinforcements but simply came to the conclusion that they could only believe in their disciples to survive and come back.
On the other side of the entrance to the secret realm, the two siblings appeared at the gate again, narrowing their gazes.
"It's no use attacking the barrier unless you're a strong Mid-Stage Immortal Emperor. Isn't that right, brother?"
The white-robed woman giggled, causing the man to heave a gentle sigh.
"I didn't expect these people to escape my Mirage Leap Web Formation. These ants are a bit more powerful than expected."
"Sounds like we have to traverse thousands of kilometers to track and hunt them down, but I think they might come across others in the meantime. That's problematic… but these ants don't know the location of this secret realm, so I think those idiots wouldn't be able to find this treasure trove as well."
"What use is hiding this spatial vortex if we can't enter the world inside? Besides, the likelihood of the other side being occupied by Immortal Emperor experts has increased, ready to subjugate or exterminate any lifeform entering through this spatial tunnel."
"…"
The little sister frowned before she shook her head, "It doesn't matter. This entrance to this world is just icing on the cake, but we should also understand that this is a death trap with little chance of us surviving. Therefore, I think we should remember what we are originally here for and prepare for it rather than wasting time on these ants. Let's just go for the strong ones and extract information from them before deciding whether it is really worth it or not."
"Finally, you said something smart, little Lyra."
"Do you want to die, Lest Mistwalker!?"
"Ahaha!~"
Lest Mistwalker laughed out loud while Lyra Mistwalker's furious expression faded, replaced with solemness.
"But… let's avoid that person called the Emperor of Death."
"Right. We could take care of him, but we don't want anything to do with an Anarchic Divergent of that level…"
Lest Mistwalker also turned solemn.
After having soulscoured many people, even though it was scrambled a lot due to the difference in their soul cultivations, he came to understand that this Anarchic Divergent called the Emperor of Death definitely wasn't simple!
"There's a chance… this realm would meet its fate faster than we expected very soon..."
He uttered, the both of them disappearing into the misty space.
