Chapter 1191: Unsealing the Holy Demon Spear
After Emperor Shenwu obtained the Holy Demon Spear, he examined it carefully. Even though there was still a sealing talisman paper on the Holy Demon Spear, Emperor Shenwu could already feel the overwhelming evil qi emanating from it.
The Holy Demon Spear was extremely restless in Emperor Shenwu's hands, as if it were a baby seeing its mother.
Emperor Shenwu then broke the seal on the Holy Demon Spear. The instant the seal was lifted, a surge of blood qi from within the spear filled the entire room.
A terrifying pressure descended upon the Great Hall, and some Great Emperors with lower realms were directly pressed to the ground by the pressure of the Holy Demon Spear, unable to lift their heads.
Feeling the pressure emanating from the Holy Demon Spear, a slight smile crept onto Emperor Shenwu's face. This spear seemed tailored specifically for him.
The Holy Demon Spear's rank was Holy Tier, and it even approached the threshold of an Emperor Artifact. Just holding the Holy Demon Spear, Emperor Shenwu faintly sensed a trace of Origin Power.
However, it seemed the Holy Demon Spear had not yet tasted blood, and was not truly unsealed.
At this moment, Emperor Shenwu's gaze fell upon Emperor Tengyun in the Great Hall.
Emperor Shenwu immediately understood why Xuan Tian had Emperor Tengyun bring the Holy Demon Spear: during his reincarnation, Emperor Tengyun flaunted in the Shenyue Dynasty and had participated in actions against him.
Xuan Tian had Emperor Tengyun deliver the Holy Artifact as a scapegoat to be dealt with by the Shenyue Dynasty, and it so happened that the Holy Demon Spear needed blood to be unsealed.
Emperor Tengyun was still unaware of the impending danger. Seeing Emperor Shenwu obtain the Holy Demon Spear, he smiled with satisfaction, thinking the matter was settled, and then said, "Since the message has been delivered, I should also return."
Saying this, Emperor Tengyun prepared to rise and leave the Shenyue Dynasty. However, at that moment, Emperor Shenwu's pressure was suddenly released, and the Power of Slaughter immediately enveloped the entire Great Hall.
Seeing this scene, Emperor Tengyun was so frightened he did not dare move. He hurriedly said, "Your Majesty… what does this mean? Are you dissatisfied with this weapon?"
Emperor Shenwu said indifferently, "I am very satisfied with this Holy Artifact, but your Tower Master also sent me another gift."
Hearing this, Emperor Tengyun was confused, another gift?
What gift?
As the one delivering the gift, how could he not know there was another gift from their Tower Master?
Emperor Shenwu said, "And that is the offering to unseal this Holy Demon Spear."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Tengyun's face instantly turned pale. He immediately understood Emperor Shenwu's meaning, and why Xuan Tian had him, a Great Emperor who had been to the Shenyue Dynasty, deliver the gift again.
This was clearly to pin all that had happened in the Shenyue Dynasty on him, letting him be the scapegoat, thus providing both Emperor Shenwu and Xuan Tian a way to save face, while avoiding a fallout between the Shenyue Dynasty and the Tianji Pavilion.
After realizing this, Emperor Tengyun had no hesitation and transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards the door of the Great Hall.
Staying here meant certain death; escape was his only option now.
Seeing Emperor Tengyun flee, Emperor Shenwu's face remained expressionless. The space of the Emperor Star was sealed, and if Emperor Tengyun wanted to escape, he could only fly, unable to use Space Teleportation Skill.
As the ruler of the Shenyue Dynasty, it was effortless for Emperor Shenwu to eliminate a Great Emperor on the Emperor Star.
Just as Emperor Tengyun was about to escape the Imperial Palace, Emperor Shenwu infused the Holy Demon Spear with the Power of Slaughter, and the spear, tainted with this power, became extremely frenzied, its emitted pressure growing even more terrifying.
The Holy Demon Spear was now eager for action, desperately needing the blood of a Great Emperor to help it be completely unsealed.
Feeling the restlessness of the Holy Demon Spear, Emperor Shenwu did not hesitate, directly hurling the spear.
Infused with the Power of Slaughter, the Holy Demon Spear transformed into a Blood Dragon, racing towards Emperor Tengyun. Before Emperor Tengyun could escape the Imperial Capital, the Blood Dragon appeared behind him.
Emperor Tengyun, sensing the threat, turned around and saw the Holy Demon Spear thrusting forward. He hurriedly summoned his Law Manifestation, intending to block it.
However, the next moment, the Holy Demon Spear suddenly accelerated, piercing directly through his body.
Immediately, Emperor Tengyun felt a terrifying suction force drawing his blood and Divine Soul towards the Holy Demon Spear.
"No!!!"
With Emperor Tengyun's unwilling roar, his Divine Soul completely dissipated, and his blood was drained, leaving only a withered corpse.
Seeing what happened outside the Great Hall, the Great Emperors inside turned pale with fear.
At this time, Emperor Shenwu lifted his hand, and the Holy Demon Spear returned to him. Feeling the enhancement brought by the blood energy on the spear, Emperor Shenwu's desire for slaughter grew even stronger.
At this moment, Emperor Ye Hun reminded, "Your Majesty, Tianji Pavilion harbors malicious intent. We must carefully examine the weapon they sent."
They had been tricked by Tianji Pavilion before. If not for Emperor Shenwu's initial preparation with various reincarnation methods, he might have been doomed at the hands of Tianji Pavilion.
Now that Tianji Pavilion had sent another gift, no one knew if there was a curse on this Holy Artifact, and perhaps Tianji Pavilion had ulterior motives this time as well.
Emperor Shenwu replied, "I have already carefully examined it. This Holy Artifact is forged from the blood and Divine Souls of countless Quasi-Emperors. It may be difficult for a typical Great Emperor to control, but for me, it's perfect."
Seeing Emperor Shenwu have no doubts about the Holy Artifact, Emperor Ye Hun did not continue speaking.
Emperor Shenwu then said, "Since Tianji Pavilion has already offered an apology, let this matter rests. It's time I head to Tianji Pavilion to have a thorough discussion with Xuan Tian about Great Xia Empire."
Upon saying this, Emperor Shenwu's body vanished from the spot, and the assembled Great Emperors hurriedly said, "Farewell, Your Majesty!!!"
...
Meanwhile.
In the Great Xia Empire, Lingzhao Super Star Domain Group.
Within a certain star domain, Lu Chen's clone was sitting on a starship, patrolling.
At this moment, a flustered Great Emperor suddenly appeared in the distance.
That Great Emperor did not know Lu Chen was on the starship in front of him and hurriedly passed by, looking extremely anxious.
Lu Chen felt a tinge of curiosity; what could make this Great Emperor so frantic? He directly transmitted a message, "Wait a moment, why are you so flustered? What's happening outside?"
The "outside" Lu Chen referred to was naturally outside the Great Xia Empire.
Recognizing Lu Chen's voice, the Great Emperor paused, immediately stopped, and saluted the starship, saying, "Greetings, Heavenly Emperor!"
After the salute, the Great Emperor hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, outside, everyone is saying that Emperor Shenwu has been resurrected!!!"
Upon hearing this information, Lu Chen's mind froze.
Emperor Shenwu has been resurrected????
