Chapter 940: Confrontation



Outside the mountain cave, a dashing Darkan Void realm expert, garbed in luxurious black silk with a green snake pattern, arrived at the scene with a cold expression.

"Is it here?"

"Yes, Your Majesty! The Pure Moon Palace's people are hiding inside of the hidden mountain cave."

The Void realm expert stared at the snowy mountain as the Void realm experts of the Martial Saint Hall, Medicine King Sect, and Heavenly Sword Manor bombarded it with spiritual attacks.

Surprisingly, the mountain suffered far less damage than imagined.

After all, the concentrated attacks of more than ten Void realm experts were more than enough to level multiple ordinary mountains. It was clear that the mountain peaks of Grand Misty Serpent's Coil were far sturdier than normal.

However, any knowledgeable cultivator from the Divine Serpent Empire wouldn't find this surprising.

The snowy mountains of the Grand Misty Serpent's Coil made up a part of the boundary of the Divine Serpent Fog Formation. It trapped all the fog and spirit energy within the Divine Serpent Empire, never allowing them to escape.

As such, the snowy mountains of the Grand Misty Serpent's Coil became denser under the effects of spirit energy ramming into it all year round.

After thousands of years of spirit energy washing, the mountain had become rather close to divine-grade material.

Nevertheless, despite being part of the pillars supporting the Divine Serpent Fog Formation, Emperor Carpus Evermore was not concerned about the extensive damage to the mountain peak.

Even if the entire upper half of the mountain were leveled, it would not affect the Divine Serpent Fog Formation.

However, it was a different story if the entire mountain disappeared. Although it wouldn't destroy the Divine Serpent Fog Formation, it would still weaken it.

"Continue the attacks. I wanted them completely crushed under the weight of the mountain. Since Pure Moon Palace has chosen their graves here, it would be impolite not to fulfill their wish."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

As the ten Void realm experts from the three major forces continued their onslaught, the weaker cultivators hunted for stragglers elsewhere.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

...

If Kemun personally acted first, would they even get a chance at some action?

Ever since they had advanced to the Transcendent rank, they had yet to find a worthy foe to test the extent of their draconic might.

"Ahem, Lord Kemun. We are here to save people, not start a..."

Before Astoria could finish her word, Kemun had already descended from the sky and landed on top of the damaged mountain. His overwhelming presence immediately forced the surrounding Void realm experts to retreat some distances.

"Hahaha, who will be my opponent? You can all come at me if you want," Kemun laughed boisterously.

Emperor Carpus stared at Kemun with gloom. He looked up at the group of Transcendent- rank dragons in the sky, and his gaze turned even gloomier.

"Your Excellency, you are trespassing on the territory of my Divine Serpent Empire. Please withdraw your forces," Emperor Carpus stated gravely.

"This..." Kemun paused slightly and glanced around. Shortly after, he looked back and said shamelessly, "I don't see the name of your Divine Serpent Empire written anywhere on this mountain. How do I know it's your mountain and not mine?"

Emperor Carpus's expression immediately turned ugly. Shameless people were hard to reason with, let alone a shameless dragon.

"This is a private matter between the Divine Serpent Empire and the Pure Moon Palace! It doesn't concern you! Please leave, Your Excellency! Otherwise, I will be forced to make you!"

Emperor Carpus threatened.

During this short exchange, Astoria and the Transcendent-rank red dragons had also descended on the mountain. Their arrival put tremendous pressure on the Void realm experts of the Martial Saint Hall, Medicine King Sect, and Heavenly Sword Manor.

After all, they may have been mobilized on Emperor Carpus's imperial order, but that didn't mean they were willing to die for him.

They were all selfish people with their own ambitions.

"Actually, this does concern us," Astoria interjected, saying, "The Pure Moon Palace has

expressed its intention to join the UN, and the UN has accepted. That makes the Pure Moon

Palace one of us."

"As such, what you are doing to the Pure Moon Palace is, in fact, an act of aggression against the UN. If you want to use force, we will respond in kind," Astoria stated.

"What did you say!?" Emperor Carpus glared at Astoria hatefully.
