Chapter 5694: The Mortal World? Meaningless
“Because if you’re wrong, all of this would be for nothing.” The prime emperor added.
“I am positive. Purewood Divine Emperor, Immortal Monarch Yiye, and Inconcealable Ancient God must have reached the place and perhaps broken through the limit. Otherwise, their absence would not make sense.”
He continued: “If there had been any mishap or things turned out to be different than imagined, why would Puresun Dao Lord and the others go explore again? More importantly, why drove Immortal Emperor Fei Yang and Bu Zhan to close Immortal Dao City? They must be aiming to delve deeper as well.”
“Our speculations are similar, Brother. There is an ultimate fortune in Immortal Dao City, hence the disappearance of some of the greatest cultivators in history. Moreover, I’m certain that this is why Fei Yang and Bu Zhan abandon everything, they know the same secret.” Luminous finished.
“Indeed, it’s a possibility.” The emperor admitted having the same ideas.
“More than just a possibility, it is reality.” Luminous said: “Hmph, closing Immortal Dao City meant abandoning Dao City and all else. They have no intention of returning now and will continue delving deeper, searching for a way to break through, a secret capable of surpassing the dao limit.”
“If that’s the case, why didn’t the real masters of Celestial Court do anything? Bu Zhan and Fei Yang couldn’t have stopped them, not even Purewood Divine Emperor’s group back then.” The prime emperor asked.
“The answer is that they had qualms about taking actions, preferring to hide instead. Moreover, they do not need to break through because they already have, Immortal Dao City was not important. Plus, Celestial Court is an equivalent heavenly treasure, home for them for eras now. There’s no safer place.” Luminous responded.
“They told us nothing and abandoned you and me, to embark on the path of breaking the dao limit.” Luminous uttered with hatred: “I can understand why the others weren’t informed. Jadesword, Skysplitter, Six-finger, all new emperors with limited contribution, weren't qualified to enter Immortal Dao City. But what about us, and especially you, Brother?”
The prime emperor clenched his fists after hearing this.
Luminous went on: “Ever since your dao debut, you have fought Celestial Court countless times for Dao Domain. The very ground the city was built on was paved with the blood and skulls of your clan members, but how were you rewarded? Only abandonment.”
“As for me, I led The People against Celestial Court for eras. I reigned wisely, the reason for Dao City’s prosperity. Yet they found me unqualified as well.” He said.
“I, Luminous, never asked for anything. However, I have done so much so why am I not walking on the dao limit path? I am inferior to none!” He claimed: “If they do not give me the chance, then I shall seize it myself. Immortal Dao City, this heavenly treasure, shall be mine.”
“It doesn’t belong to us, just a place where we shall stay.” The prime emperor said after a long pause.
“Hah, Brother, you’re still so righteous?” Luminous said: “So what if they got there first? We all fought for The People, we deserve a share.”
“How long have you been scheming with Celestial Court?” The prime emperor asked.
Luminous only smiled and didn’t answer.
“Did you forget the role Celestial Court played in your destruction?” The prime emperor said.
“The past is the past, both The People and The Rac mean little to me, I realized this logic back in the upper continents.” Luminous sneered.
