Chapter 582: Nine Lives, Not Good

“According to reports, this person in his previous life was known as the Nine Lives Celestial Lord, a standout among the Celestial Lords and a supreme existence who crossed the Saint Tribulation. However, during the tribulation, he was betrayed by his beloved. Though he had eight beloveds, looking at how well he treated those women, it’s fair to call them his eight beloveds.”

“After being reborn, despite being a top-tier Celestial Lord, his cultivation speed can’t be called unprecedented throughout the ages, but his ability to fight within the same rank and leap beyond ranks truly has no precedent.”

“In his last life, the Sea of Blood Celestial Lord exhaustively ascended, trying to break through the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens’ law restrictions to no avail, which led to a significant decline in the Great Sage’s law. Meanwhile, we opened the dark chaos to harvest the lives of beings across the world, but we were stopped by this Lu Ye, most of us were slaughtered by Lu Ye.”

“It was like that in the past, and this time Lu Ye is even stronger, with the Heavenly Dao clearly on Lu Ye’s side. We foolishly thought we could replace the Heavenly Dao with the Darkness Origin, but no matter what, we have to face Lu Ye.”

“Fortunately, Lu Ye’s strength hasn’t reached an unprecedented level; he only possesses the fighting power of a Quasi-Emperor, so everything is still within our control.”

The Great Emperor of Covering Heaven briefly introduced the current situation’s background and then stepped back, sitting cross-legged.

I must say, the Great Emperor of Covering Heaven has been awake in the Darkness Origin for a long time and still makes good sense.

He rarely engaged in competition with others or liked the bloodshed, mainly because he had a limited lifespan, so he sought refuge in the Darkness Origin to slow down his aging.

He’s perceptive, has a good attitude, and is always willing to speak kindly to everyone.

He even made many friends; when he sent An Li into the Six Paths of Reincarnation, if he hadn’t brought An Li along, who knows if the Reincarnation Celestial Lord would truly be willing to chat with him.

“We need to break the Nine Heavens law and kill Lu Ye; these two matters need resolving,” the Sea of Blood Celestial Lord stated.

The crowd…

“May I ask, Celestial Lord, on which Heaven is Lu Ye?” a Great Emperor questioned.

“Seventh Heaven.”

The crowd…

Seventh Heaven? Isn’t that crossing the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens’ law? Who’s going to do that? To put it another way, who’s going to die? Even a Great Emperor would be useless dying there!

Only a Celestial Lord could die to weaken the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens’ law.

Would the Sea of Blood Celestial Lord die?

Definitely not!

So what’s the plan now?

“Since it’s in the Seventh Heaven, we can send Quasi-Emperors to trap and kill him!” a Great Emperor proposed.

The Darkness Origin couldn’t help but interject.

“I previously sent nine Quasi-Emperors at the moment he ascended to the Seventh Heaven, intending to ambush him, but all nine perished.”

“Hmm? He was able to kill Quasi-Emperors right after ascending?”

“It’s because he called many Quasi-Emperors to protect him.”

“Many Quasi-Emperors? Don’t we have a lot of Quasi-Emperors as well now? No matter how popular he is, how many Quasi-Emperors can he have?” the Soulborn Great Emperor said ominously.

“Over two hundred, I think…”

Soulborn Great Emperor???

“How many?”

“Over two hundred, that’s a lot; I didn’t count exactly but definitely many. Do we have enough?”

Soulborn Great Emperor…

“Why does he have so many Quasi-Emperors willing to follow him?”

The Darkness Origin was quite pleased by such a question.

“Because he helped a Quasi-Emperor successfully attain enlightenment, and that person became a Great Emperor.”

This statement made the Quasi-Emperors sitting on the outskirts instantly gleam with hope.

Huh?

“Nonsense, attaining enlightenment to become an Emperor is a personal endeavor. If one works hard enough, they can naturally achieve it; what does that have to do with him?” said the Soulborn Great Emperor.

“Well, I don’t know, but there really is a Great Emperor who successfully attained enlightenment in front of everyone, and before ascending, he almost bowed to Lu Ye in a disciple’s manner.”

The eyes of the Quasi-Emperors dimmed.

Almost uniformly turning cold.

Because even their most unchanging indifference couldn’t suppress the excitement on their faces.

“So now all the Quasi-Emperors in the Seventh Heaven are training with Lu Ye. Previously, when five Quasi-Emperors from the forbidden lands teamed up, their numbers reached three hundred, but they were defeated by this group of Great Emperors, resulting in over a hundred Quasi-Emperor casualties.”

The Soulborn Great Emperor had nothing to say.

What else can be said?

If three hundred Quasi-Emperors were crushed, what can this small number of old, weak, sick, and disabled in the Darkness Origin do?

For the first time, he felt the lower-tier forces in the Darkness Origin were so lacking.

“Keep brainstorming for strategies.” The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord called these people over to come up with strategies.

He couldn’t think of anything for now, so let’s think together.

Everyone wracked their brains.

Suddenly, a somewhat effeminate-looking Great Emperor’s expression changed.

“I’ve thought of a method, not sure if it’s viable.”

“Speak!”

The Illusion Shadow Great Emperor said in a soft tone, “Since the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens’ law can be weakened by the Celestial Lords, if we find a Celestial Lord and force him to unleash his full power in the Nine Heavens, could that weaken the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens’ laws?”

Several Great Emperors looked at the Illusion Shadow Great Emperor as if he were an idiot.

Are you joking? Is a Celestial Lord someone we can force?

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord, however, showed some interest.

“Go on.”

The Illusion Shadow Great Emperor, beaming with confidence, slowly uttered two words.

“Sky Stiff!”

As soon as those words were said, the Darkness Origin trembled violently.

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord looked at the Darkness Origin, “Why are you shaking?”

“I didn’t expect someone could be so clever. Right now, I should turn back into a human to make myself smarter!”

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord…

The Darkness Origin didn’t turn into Dark Yaner; otherwise, it would surely be shocked.

Not good!

Nine Lives is in trouble!

I need to find a chance to send a warning!

“So explain, what do you mean by Sky Stiff?”

The Illusion Shadow Great Emperor smiled confidently.

“Sky Stiff, a Celestial Lord who failed to live out a second life and turned into a decayed corpse, the Stiffness of the Celestial Lord.”

“Currently, the Sky Stiff has no consciousness, hidden in the Ancient Land of the Heavenly Corpse, waiting to be born with new wisdom.”

“If we can find the Ancient Land of the Heavenly Corpse, we can have the Sea of Blood Celestial Lord attack the Sky Stiff directly, provoke it into attacking the Nine Heavens, and the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens will naturally respond, weakening the law of the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens, right?”

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord’s eyes brightened slightly.

This idea…

Is really good!

If the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens’ law is diminished, wouldn’t it mean I could do whatever I want later?

“Nine Lives, are you there? Not good!”
