Chapter 2543 Descent of Apocalypse!
The Martial Dao Prime Body summoned the h.e.l.l Suppression Tripod, prepared to break through the void and leave with Demoness Ji.
Given the capabilities of the Fiend Emperor, the two of them could not hide for long.
If he was discovered by Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao, even if the Martial Dao Prime Body could break through the void, he might not be able to return to Avici under the watch of the latter.
Given the power that the Fiend Emperor had just displayed, the Martial Dao Prime Body had no doubt that once the two of them were discovered, even if he entered the spatial tunnel, Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao would be able to sever it and capture the two of them!
Right then, Demoness Ji suddenly said, "I seem to remember!"
"What?" The Martial Dao Prime Body asked instinctively.
Demoness Ji said sternly, "This tomb beneath Fiend Emperor Apocalypse should be the tomb of a Great Emperor!"
The Martial Dao Prime Body"s heart skipped a beat.
Prior to this, who would have thought that there was a tomb of a Great Emperor hidden beneath the tomb of Fiend Emperor Apocalypse in the depths of Bei Yin Mountain!
However, on second thought, only a Great Emperor could afford to have a thousand Emperor tombs buried with him!
However, he did not know what sort of an existence this Great Emperor was in the past to be so terrifying as to kill so many Emperors.
"Who is this Great Emperor?"
The Martial Dao Prime Body asked.
Demoness Ji pursed her lips slightly and hesitated, as though she was wary of something.
Right then, a loud bang sounded from the tomb of the Fiend Emperor above. Immediately after, a flare surged into the skies and charged towards Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao who was in the clouds with a resplendent glow!
The flare emitted a scorching and terrifying aura and the power it released could go against the might of a Fiend Emperor!
The majestic power even tore the void apart, leaving clear cracks!
"Hmph, how dare you act so brazenly without an owner!"
Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao harrumphed coldly and a saber shrouded by fiend qi suddenly appeared in his palm. It descended from the skies and seemed to split the firmaments into two!
Clang!
Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao"s black saber struck the flare and revealed its true form—it was the Flames of War Spear!
As for Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao, his body shuddered after being struck by the Flames of War Spear. He appeared and stood in midair with a hint of shock in his eyes.
Boom!
The Flames of War Spear fell to the ground and pierced through it, causing spiderweb-like cracks to appear in its surroundings as the ground shook.
The flames on the spear intensified!
In the flames, the Flames of War Spear was burned red and almost transparent as its aura rose continuously!
The Martial Dao Prime Body and Demoness Ji exchanged glances and were shocked.
To think that this Emperor weapon would release such a terrifying power the moment it was born after being buried for tens of millions of years.
Hidden s.p.a.ce and the other Fiend Kings watching below were shocked as well.
They could not interfere in a battle of such level!
"How is that possible?"
Although Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao was expressionless, his heart stirred.
It was just an Emperor weapon. Even if the spirit consciousness within was not destroyed, it could not release such power with no one controlling it!
"Your master has already died for tens of millions of years. How dare a single weapon like you try to violate my might?!"
Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao glared at the battle spear that burned with raging flames on the ground and hollered, "I"m here! Hurry and submit!"
"Everywhere Flames of War goes, the territory shall belong to me!"
Suddenly!
A deep voice sounded from the ruins of the Fiend Emperor"s tomb. It contained endless might that could not be disobeyed!
Demoness Ji"s heart skipped a beat as she suddenly said, "Those were the words of Fiend Emperor Apocalypse in the past. How could…"
Demoness Ji did not continue and did not dare to continue thinking.
When he heard that, Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao had a grim expression as he glared at the ruins of the Fiend Emperor"s tomb and said coldly, "Stop pretending. Who are you? Why don"t you show yourself?!"
Back then, every time Fiend Emperor Apocalypse conquered a territory, he would throw the Flames of War Spear out first.
The living beings in the territory only had two choices—submit or escape.
If anyone dared to resist, the Destruction Axe would descend alongside a calamity. Countless living beings would be slaughtered and blood would flow like rivers!
Indeed, that action earlier on was in the style of Fiend Emperor Apocalypse. However, unless he witnessed it personally, Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao would not believe that Fiend Emperor Apocalypse could survive till now!
The lifespans of Emperors and Great Emperors were 10 million years.
Even for the one named Great Emperor Longevity, he could not survive for tens of millions of years!
"You merely cultivated half of my fiend sutra and yet you dare to bark in front of me?"
The deep voice sounded from the ruins of the tomb once more.
That statement revealed a greater piece of information that was even more terrifying!
The Apocalyptic Fiend Sutra was created by the person who spoke.
In that case, the ident.i.ty of the owner of the voice was obvious!
When Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao heard that, he felt a little guilty and glared at the ruins with a bewildered expression.
Bang! Boom!
In the ruins of the tomb, countless boulders were sent flying as a tall and burly figure stood up slowly. His black hair danced and his eyes were bloodshot as he wielded a gigantic black axe.
Although that figure stood in the ruins of the tomb, its aura was even more domineering and terrifying than Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao who was in the skies!
n.o.body had seen the appearance of Fiend Emperor Apocalypse before. However, when many people saw that figure, they were certain that it was the ruthless person from tens of millions of years ago—Fiend Emperor Apocalypse himself!
The Martial Dao Prime Body had also seen the black fiend diagram before. The figure drawn on the fiend diagram was almost identical to Fiend Emperor Apocalypse before him!
How was that possible?
Fiend Emperor Apocalypse was not dead?
A Fiend Emperor who should have died a long time ago had reappeared in the world tens of millions of years later!
All the living beings in the vicinity of Bei Yin Mountain were stunned on the spot by the aura emanated by Fiend Emperor Apocalypse and did not dare to move!
At that moment, any activity could lead to death!
The world seemed to have gone silent and the air froze, as though it had stopped.
In the Great Emperor"s tomb, the Martial Dao Prime Body finally understood something.
There was a reason why the Fiend Kings could not release their Grotto-heavens after entering the Fiend Cave.
That was because Fiend Emperor Apocalypse was not dead at all. The Fiend Cave that they entered was actually a world conjured by Fiend Emperor Apocalypse!
How could the Grotto-heavens of Fiend Kings be released in the world of a Fiend Emperor?
As for him and Demoness Ji, they returned to normal after falling into the tomb beneath the chamber and could release divine powers and secret skills. It was also because the tomb they were in right now was the tomb of a Great Emperor!
Although the world of a Fiend Emperor was strong, its power could not cover the tomb of a Great Emperor.
In the skies, Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao looked down at the figure in the ruins of the tomb.
At that moment, he seemed to have an illusion that the person below was looking down at him with a cold gaze!
He still could not believe it!
Fiend Emperor Apocalypse was still alive and had lived for tens of millions of years!
Fiend Emperor Ling Xiao was certain of one thing. Even if Fiend Emperor Apocalypse was still alive, he was not at the level of a Great Emperor.
Once one became a Great Emperor, all the Emperors of the upper world would obtain a mysterious connection.
