Chapter 3207: The Only Way Out
“Worried about what?”
Lin Xuanji asked instinctively.
Old Xuan remained silent.
The others exchanged glances in confusion as well.
Although Great Emperor Desolate Martial and Great Empress Blood b.u.t.terfly were dead, given the strength of Tianhuang World, Great Wilderness World, Sword World and Sanguine Ape World, no matter how strong the Sect Master of the Academy was, these worlds could fight him if they joined forces.
Only Immortal Queen Ling Long said slowly, “Him becoming a Great Emperor!”
The expressions of everyone present changed when they heard that!
“Impossible!”
Lin Xuanji jumped up and frowned. “It’s as difficult as ascending to the heavens to become a Great Emperor. Throughout history, there have only been a few people…”
At that point, Lin Xuanji could not continue.
He realized that this generation was different from the past few eras.
In this generation, the Heavenly Court was shattered. Without the seal of the Nine Heavens, the cultivation environment of the medium chiliocosm was flipped upside down. In fact, it was comparable to a rebirth of the medium chiliocosm.
Furthermore, there were endless treasures and opportunities acc.u.mulated by the Heavenly Court for several eras!
It would not be surprising if someone became a Great Emperor again.
“I don’t think so.”
Yun Ting frowned. “The Sect Master of the Academy’s cultivation has stagnated at the Grotto-heaven realm for at least 100,000 years. It’s clear that his talent is not top-notch. Does he have a chance of becoming a Great Emperor?”
Yun Ting was indeed qualified when it came to determining cultivation talent.
Apart from Su Zimo, there were not many people who could surpa.s.s his cultivation speed.
“There can only be one Great Emperor in the medium chiliocosm. Any Emperor has a chance, including him of course.”
Old Xuan said, “In addition, your understanding of cultivation talent is a little one-sided. The speed of your cultivation is only a manifestation of your cultivation talent but not everything.”
“Before Great Empress Blood b.u.t.terfly reached the Grotto-heaven realm, she was unknown. In fact, she only attracted the Five of Nine Perfected One Heavenly Tribulation. According to the understanding of ordinary people, such talent is probably at rock bottom. But what happened after that?”
Everyone knew that later on, the Blood b.u.t.terfly became a legend!
Old Xuan said, “Actually, no matter how talented a person is, their achievements will be limited if they only cultivate in seclusion without any fortuitous encounters.”
“The reason why his cultivation did not increase much over the years was because he had been cautious and did not obtain any opportunities.”
Yun Ting was silent.
In reality, in the cultivation environment of the medium chiliocosm, it was normal for King experts to stagnate for 100,000 years or even hundreds of thousands of years.
Even for him, without any opportunities or fortuitous encounters, it was impossible for his cultivation realm to advance by leaps and bounds just by cultivating in seclusion.
Back at the Divine Firmament Immortal Meet, he lost to Su Zimo and chose to leave the Heavenly World resolutely because he realized his bottleneck.
The reason why he headed to the Sword World was also to search for greater opportunities!
“Actually, the Sect Master of the Academy’s combat strength is extremely strong among his peers. At the very least, I’m far from being his match. I witnessed it when I received the inheritance of Great Empress Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden back then.”
Immortal Queen Ling Long said, “However, for hundreds of thousands of years, the Sect Master of the Academy rarely attacked and his presence is very low. Even in the Heavenly World, there are not many experts who pay attention to him.”
Apart from Old Xuan, the only person present who had seen the true methods of the Sect Master of the Academy was Immortal Queen Ling Long.
Immortal Queen Ling Long said, “He’s ambitious and good at manipulating social power. He can see through human nature, but he keeps a low profile, exercises patience and restrains his sharpness. It might even make you guys look down on him unconsciously.”
“When you look down on him, you’ll be careless and relax, paying the price.”
” That’ s also why he’ s smart.”
Even Yang Ruoxu, who was from Heaven and Earth Academy, broke out in a cold sweat when he heard that.
He had cultivated in the academy for many years. At that moment, he realized that he knew nothing about the Sect Master!
Feng Cantian sighed. “Sometimes, I have to admit that in this cruel and dark world, people like the Sect Master of the Academy will often become the final winner.”
For people like them, they cared about too many things and they had their own persistence and attachment towards people and relations.h.i.+ps.
As for the Sect Master of the Academy, he did not care about anything except himself.
In this generation, the Heavenly Court was shattered and an unprecedented situation appeared.
The Sect Master of the Academy’s patience had indeed reaped unimaginable rewards for him. Right now, timing, opportunities and luck were all on his side!
If he could take another step forward and become a Great Emperor, he would truly become the final winner that Feng Cantian mentioned!
It was also because Su Zimo saw that that he wanted to use himself as bait to lure the Sect Master of the Academy out in advance.
“The World Lord is worried about something else.”
Consort Yu, who was sitting at the side and had been quiet the entire time, suddenly said.
After the Heaven Conquest Battle, the h.e.l.l Army split into two.
Some stayed in Tianhuang World and continued to listen to Su Zimo’s orders. Consort Yu was one of them.
As for most living beings of h.e.l.l, they seemed to have sensed something and returned to the h.e.l.l World.
Consort Yu said, “Greater Avici was shattered and the Lord of h.e.l.l was reborn in the h.e.l.l Dao. I’m afraid it will be disadvantageous to the medium chiliocosm in the future.”
Empress Evil had only mentioned this to Su Zimo and no one else knew about it.
When they heard that, everyone’s hearts skipped a beat and their expressions changed starkly!
The Lord of h.e.l.l had revived!
Lin Lei asked, “Those Lords of the Heavenly Court are already dead. His greatest enemy, Great Emperor Infinite, has long died as well. Why would he still want to deal with the medium chiliocosm?”
Feng Cantian said, “Although Great Emperor Infinite is dead, his successor is still alive.”
Su Zimo’s two true bodies possessed the Prajna Nirvana Sutra and h.e.l.l Suppression Tripod. They even controlled Greater Avici and could be considered to have received the complete inheritance of Great Emperor Infinite.
Yaksha King Fear said, “The Lord of h.e.l.l is ferocious by nature and extremely bloodthirsty. Furthermore, he has been imprisoned by Great Emperor Infinite for so long and is enduring endless pain at all times. Now that he’s reborn, he’ll definitely take revenge or even be even more violent!”
Even ordinary people would have a drastic change in temperament after being imprisoned for so many years.
Furthermore, the Lord of h.e.l.l was a ferocious and bloodthirsty person to begin with. It was not surprising for him to vent his anger on all the living beings in the medium chiliocosm.
“Sigh.”
Old Xuan sighed with a worried expression.
The Lord of h.e.l.l was a Great Emperor-level expert!
Once he returned, no one in the medium chiliocosm would be his match!
Yaksha King Fear continued, “There’s also the Lord of the Netherworld. He might not be dead either.”
Everyone was shocked again!
The Lord of the Netherworld who wanted to bury the heavens and refine all living beings was not dead!
Although it was much easier for all living beings of the ten thousand races to cultivate in the medium chiliocosm, their overall strength was less than a hundred years ago.
That was because most Emperor experts of this generation chose to ascend to the major chiliocosm.
There were not many Emperors left.
As long as either the Lord of h.e.l.l or the Lord of the Netherworld was still alive, the medium chiliocosm would not be able to withstand it, let alone two terrifying existences like them!
Yaksha King Fear said, “I suggest that everyone ascend to the major chiliocosm as soon as possible after entering the Emperor realm. This might be our only way out.”
Everyone from Tianhuang Mainland shook their heads when they heard that.
They knew that there was a high chance that the medium chiliocosm would face a huge calamity. How could they abandon everything and ascend to the major chiliocosm?
Everyone who were gathered in this hall had something they held onto.
Yaksha King Fear did not persuade further.
After interacting with them for so many years, he had already understood the group of people around him.
These people were gradually changing him as well.
Perhaps, he would not leave either.
