This also marked a crucial turning point for him, thanks to the profound origin of the Extreme Dao. It led him to make significant changes in the path he was about to tread.
Senior!
Jian Wushuang was somewhat moved, unsure of what Shan Jun intended to do. However, he could sense that his journey toward perfecting his physical body was not going to be as easy as he had thought.
On the slopes of the Demon Sound Mountain.
Despite the eternal presence of the Eternal Tower, many Emperors were still injured. After all, they were besieged by hundreds of tier 4 Devouring Demons, a force no one could easily withstand.
Fengyu, if we cant figure out a solution soon, well have to retreat, Emperor Chishui couldnt help but speak up.
He had climbed halfway up the mountain, reaching almost his limit. It was incredibly challenging to go any further uphill.
Instead of fighting to the death with these creatures, he considered stepping back to contemplate the origin source more deeply, grabbing whatever benefits he could in the process.
However, Emperor Fengyu was different. She possessed the Eternal Treasure and could use it to ascend the mountain again.
But the problem lay with the countless Devouring Demons. She couldnt handle them alone; she needed the help of others.
Now, the two Emperors found themselves on opposing sides once again. Fengyus eyes turned icy cold. She snorted and said, This opportunity to observe the universes origin source up close is incredibly rare. Chishui, if youre afraid of death, you can retreat at any time. No one is stopping you here!
She spoke the truth. Although she needed others help, she didnt care about Crimson Water at all. But
now, not only did this guy want to retreat, he was also trying to persuade others to follow suit.
That was unacceptable!
Chishui pondered for a moment, his small eyes darting around.
Fengyu, you cant put it that way. Observing the universes origin source from such a close distance is a tremendous opportunity for all of us. We cant just give up easily. But being trapped by these evil alien beasts now, unable to ascend the mountain and unable to practice in peace, plus the injuries weve sustained This is not good for us!
The two of them continued to argue.
In their hearts, they were as clear as a mirror.
Fengyu wanted to use these people to help her reach the top. Redwater didnt want to see Fengyu grow stronger, and he certainly didnt want to be the one taken advantage of.
This left some others in a dilemma.
Especially the peak-level experts from other domains.
And there were some tier 3 Emperors too. Every one of them had experienced tremendous luck to reach this point. It wasnt easy for them, and they were reluctant to retreat.
However, they were weak, and not retreating was not an option either. If they insisted on fighting, the first to fall would be the tier 3 Emperors.
So, they thought, why not retreat to a safer place halfway up the mountain and cultivate there?
Despite being protected by a layer of light shield, Jian Wushuang couldnt help but feel a shiver.
Was this the might of a top Emperor?
Even a slight brush with this power would probably lead to her demise!
Such a terrifying presence was suppressed here on the mountaintop so casually.
The immense power of the Qishen Temple was beyond imagination.
Listen, you reptiles inside. If you want to ascend the mountain, leave behind ten percent of your origin source. I wont interfere. If you refuse, dont even think about staying on this mountainside! Shan Juns threatening tone was straightforward, leaving no room for negotiation.
Jian Wushuang couldnt help but sigh.
Strength truly meant confidence. If their strengths were equal, there might be political maneuvering, but when one side overwhelmingly dominated the other, the stronger party wouldnt bother with such tactics.
Theyd be direct.
No compromise meant get lost!
If he can do it, so can l! Jian Wushuang thought to himself.
If Shan Jun had this power now, he would have it in the future too.
Ten percent of the origin source from so many Emperors!
What a grand gift.bender
Inside the Eternal Tower, two factions emerged.
One supported Chishui, and the other, Fengyu.
These old rivals found themselves once again on opposing sides.
Chishui didnt believe, nor did he want to believe, Shan Juns words. But Fengyu was willing to take the risk.
If these Devouring Demons didnt obstruct her, she had a chance to reach the top.
For these Emperors, the biggest threat on Demon Sound Mount was the Devouring Demon Lord. Without these creatures blocking their way, most of the tier 4 Emperors had a chance to ascend.
The remaining major peak forces, lacking the Eternal Treasures, sided with Fengyu.
On Chishuis side were scattered cultivators and representatives of small forces.
Fengyu, do you take us for children? What kind of silly stunt are you trying to pull? If you actually trust what that Demon Lord says, you might as well trust me. 1 say you have the potential to be a great Emperor, mocked a follower of Chishui directly.
The several tier 4 Emperors below didnt dare to be so arrogant. After all, this was the Eternal Tower.
Even if Fengyu didnt dare to offend everyone and deal with them, she could still ask for their help. The situation couldnt be settled abruptly..
