“Did you hear? A badly injured Saint came from the future and is now diving into the River of Time to find resources to recover!”
“You heard about that too?”
“Yeah, I heard it from another Fellow Daoist. What, you know about it too?”
“Who doesn’t? A badly injured Saint… they say their strength barely reaches the level of a Celestial Lord.”
“Right, I’ve already seen my fate. In the end, I still won’t become a Saint, but if I could capture a Saint and then become one myself, wouldn’t I be able to run out of the River of Time? At that point, I’d truly be a Saint!”
“If you really become a Saint, then of course you can transcend the River of Time!”
This kind of conversation was happening everywhere among various time periods, all fighting over resources.
The so-called fighting over resources refers to a once-mighty power on the brink of collapse; since defeat is inevitable, everyone rushes in.
For instance, the Ancient Heavenly Court!
Right now, the Ancient Heavenly Court was packed with powerful beings. Everyone knew it had the most treasures, considering this force had essentially unified this world in the past.
But the key was that if powerful beings from other eras could come, then those from the peak of the Ancient Heavenly Court’s power could come too.
So they fought!
Battle after battle erupted everywhere.
At various critical time points, it truly gathered a massive amount of Tianjiao.
If it were back when Lu Ye hadn’t crossed over, this situation would be akin to Genghis Khan battling Emperor Taizong of the Tang, or Lü Bu bravely facing three spears from Xiang Yu, or Yuwen Chengdu lining up to hack at Fan Kuai.
Chaos, absolute chaos.
In a certain treasure location.
An Li’s figure appeared; finally, there were no Celestial Lords here, making her a bit uncomfortable.
In her last life, An Li obviously didn’t participate in the battles in the River of Time, so her concept of how many powerful beings had come and gone throughout history was rather vague.
But now that she had seen it firsthand, An Li realized her perspective was rather limited.
Because there were indeed a lot of Celestial Lords and Great Emperors!
Numerous Celestial Lords were recorded in history, yet without much fame.
Much like the Primordial Dao Lord and the Forgetful Emotion Celestial Lord, in hundreds of thousands or even millions of years, people would definitely remember the Primordial Dao Lord more, while the Forgetful Emotion Celestial Lord would be forgotten.
Why?
First, because the Primordial Dao Lord was fierce in battle; second, because he loved to teach!
And the Forgetful Emotion Celestial Lord? A total couch potato, hardly said a word.
Under such circumstances, historical records would certainly note the Forgetful Emotion Celestial Lord, but only in passing.
Many Celestial Lords were actually in this situation.
An Li looked at a divine herb, its radiance enveloping the entire star in a mysterious domain.
This divine herb was called the Healing Herb. It had powerful effects for healing injuries or enhancing cultivation.
Most importantly, due to the existence of this herb, the entire star turned into a divine land.
Surrounding it were six Great Emperors facing off.
There were no Celestial Lords here, only Great Emperors!
An Li instantly took action, terrifying pressure descended, and six claws rapidly appeared in the void. She intended not only to seize the divine herb but to take this opportunity to devour all six Great Emperors in one bite.
Just as she struck.
Nearby Celestial Lords in the same time period sensed a shift.
It was a very clear sensation of location, like a dark spot appearing on a huge white sheet of paper.
Without a moment’s hesitation, all the Celestial Lords rushed toward An Li’s location.
After all, for a Celestial Lord, no opportunity could compare to that of becoming a Saint!
Charge!
An Li thought her prowess would easily crush these six Great Emperors.
But as soon as she struck, her expression changed.
All the Great Emperors felt a looming danger, with no hesitation, they instantly reached their peak.
It was just a matter of time in the River of Time, according to future events, they were all destined to die, so what did they have to fear?
Charge!
The claws shattered.
The six Great Emperors didn’t even exchange a glance and all charged at An Li.
First, they would team up to deal with the most dangerous opponent, and how to split the Healing Herb would be discussed afterward!
An Li gritted her teeth in anger.
This was the first time An Li directly faced a Great Emperor.
The battle power displayed by each Great Emperor was several times, if not dozens of times, stronger than her own back in the day.
How could this be possible?
Didn’t this mean her former self, thinking she was just a hair’s breadth away from becoming an Emperor, was actually miles away from succeeding?
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The Great Emperor’s Dao soldiers charged forward with the strength of the Dao.
An Li let out a loud shout, drawing upon the essence of the Dark Origin God while shattering all the attacks.
The Dark Origin God watched this scene, feeling heartbroken.
Because if he were to use so much essence, he could annihilate all six Great Emperors.
But here and now, An Li could only repel them.
She didn’t even manage to severely injure them.
“Weak! Absolutely too weak!”
The Dark Origin God couldn’t stop lamenting.
“Shut up!”
An Li fumed, berating the Dark Origin God.
“If I shut up, you’re still weak. Let you fight a bit longer, the essence from the herb would soon be less than what you’ve consumed! Didn’t you say you were a Great Emperor? Is this all you’ve got?”
“Die!”
An Li fiercely activated her great technique known as the Dark Night Obliteration Finger.
Yeah, Lu Ye taught her that in her previous life.
And wouldn’t you know it, this move sent all six Quasi-Emperors flying away.
“What a waste! What a waste!”
The Dark Origin God couldn’t help but sigh again.
An Li was no longer thinking of killing these six Great Emperors; instead, she reached for the divine star.
Just then, the aura of a Celestial Lord suddenly appeared.
“Indeed the aura of a Saint!”
The moment this Celestial Lord appeared, their eyes lit up with excitement.
They didn’t hold back at all, immediately burning their own essence, sending a gigantic golden ring toward An Li.
The world was imprisoned beneath the ring.
An Li’s expression changed dramatically.
Why did a Celestial Lord come here?
Not good!
But before An Li could curse in her heart, a second Celestial Lord appeared.
“A Saint? A badly injured Saint? Hahaha, die!”
An Li…
She couldn’t even handle one Celestial Lord, and now there were two.
However, her greed was enough that she still grabbed the divine star, making it and the Healing Herb disappear.
She broke free the moment she was imprisoned.
But that slight delay meant five Celestial Lords emerged.
“Kill!”
