36: One word destroyed the Immortal Tomb

"It's over... it's all over..."

"Seven Fellow Daoists... just gone like that..."

The surviving Supremes were left with nothing but endless regret and fear in their hearts.

As for those Supremes who had been watching and hadn't rushed in, they were even more terrified to the point of Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering.

They were just a hair's breadth away from following in the footsteps of those seven!

"Wushi!"

A Divine Thought filled with fury came from the direction of the Immortal Tomb, "You knew it was a trap, so why didn't you warn us beforehand?! You're using a borrowed knife to kill!"

"Using a borrowed knife to kill?"

Great Emperor Wushi turned around, his gaze cold as he looked towards the Immortal Tomb. "Since when does this Emperor have an obligation to warn a bunch of trash like you?"

"You've lived for countless ages; don't you even have basic vigilance? Blinded by greed, you deserve this end!"

"Furthermore, this Emperor accepted your 'tickets' only to promise to bring you here. As for whether you can enter, that's your own business."

"Now, the door is closed. As for when it will open again, that depends on this Emperor's mood."

"All of you, shut up and wait obediently!"

His overbearing and unquestionable words left all the Supremes feeling angry but unable to speak out.

However, the Supreme within the Immortal Tomb was unwilling to swallow his pride like this.

"Wushi! You go too far! My Immortal Tomb—"

"Boom—!"

Before he could finish, a terrifying Bell Wave crossed the endless starry river and struck the Immortal Tomb directly!

"Dang—!"

The sound of the wushi bell echoed over the Immortal Tomb, making the entire ancient Restricted Zone tremble.

"Noisy."

Great Emperor Wushi's voice was cold as iron. "Since you want to die so badly, this Emperor will grant your wish. However, this Emperor is in a good mood today and doesn't want to do it personally."

He turned around, his gaze sweeping over the surviving Supremes and those watching from the shadows, and spoke slowly:

"Everyone, the Immortal Tomb failed to appreciate my favor and offended this Emperor. Now, I will give you a chance to make amends."

"Within three days, I want to see the Immortal Tomb vanish from this world."

"Whoever achieves this will be the first to enter the passage when it next opens."

"And those who can't..."

Great Emperor Wushi paused, a cruel smile curling his lips. "Then vanish along with the Immortal Tomb."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the Supremes were stunned.

Make them attack the Immortal Tomb? This... this was simply making them kill each other!

But they quickly realized that Wushi was asserting his authority while also cleaning out the disobedient troublemakers.

Moreover, the treasures and Immortal Source within the Immortal Tomb were a huge temptation for them... More importantly, they didn't dare to refuse.

"We... we are willing!"

A Supreme from the Sea of Reincarnation was the first to step forward, speaking through gritted teeth.

With the first, there came a second, a third... Soon, over a dozen Supremes expressed their willingness to act.

"Very well."

Great Emperor Wushi nodded with satisfaction, then took Ruthless Great Emperor's hand and turned to leave.

"In three days, this Emperor will come to inspect the results."

His figure vanished into the Void Realm, leaving the Supremes looking at each other in dismay.

After a moment of silence, one Supreme said through gritted teeth, "Everyone, things have come to this; we have no choice. The Immortal Tomb... must be destroyed!"

"Move!"

...Big Dipper Star Field, the various forces of the Human Race.

In the Ancient Desolate Ji Family, the divine light descending from the Void Mirror gradually receded.

Ji Haoyue stood upon the Ancestral Land, watching the auras of the Supremes gathering towards the Immortal Tomb in the sky, completely stunned.

"What... what's happening? Those Supremes... are they going to attack the Immortal Tomb?"

Ji Ziyue had learned everything from the Chat Group. Her face was pale, and her voice trembled, "Brother, it's Great Emperor Wushi's command... He ordered those Supremes to wipe out the Immortal Tomb..."

"What?!"

Ji Haoyue gasped.

Great Emperor Wushi had actually reached such a level of strength?

Not only did he slay the Undying Heavenly Emperor, but he could also drive other Supremes to attack a Restricted Zone?

This could no longer be described as "strong"; this was... an absolute Dominator!

In the Jiang Family, the spirit of the hengyu furnace also fell into deep thought.

"Fellow Daoist Wushi, you are using the hands of those Supremes to clear out all hidden threats... Brilliant, truly brilliant..."

In the Yaochi Holy Land, the empress pagoda vibrated gently, as if cheering for this guardian of the Human Race.

However, even more Human Race Cultivators were plunged into deep confusion.

"Wait... did I miss something? When did Great Emperor Wushi... become Ruthless Great Emperor's brother?"

"Exactly! I remember Ruthless Great Emperor was a figure from the desolate era, while Great Emperor Wushi is from the present. How could they be siblings?"

"Could there be... some secret behind this?"

The entire Big Dipper was discussing this shocking secret.

And at this moment, the Chat Group was also in an uproar.

[Ji Ziyue]: "Heavens... the Group Master is so Ruthless... directly making those Supremes kill each other..."

[Xiao Yan]: "This is true imperial strategy! Killing three birds with one stone! It asserts authority, cleans out troublemakers, and drains the strength of those Supremes. Simply perfect!"

[Luo Feng]: "I finally understand why the Group Master could become the greatest emperor of all time. This level of calculation and means is truly... terrifying to such an extent."

[Hengyu]: "However, this old man has a question... Fellow Daoist Wushi, are you and Fellow Daoist Ruthless really siblings? How... how is this possible?"

This question was also the doubt in the hearts of all group members.

Great Emperor Wushi looked at the messages in the group, remained silent for a moment, and then slowly typed.

[Great Emperor Wushi]: "This is a long story. But since you are all curious, I will explain it simply."

[Great Emperor Wushi]: "Ruthless's brother was snatched away when she was very young and refined into a Medicine Man. She spent her whole life searching for him but never succeeded."

[Great Emperor Wushi]: "As for me... I have a trace of her brother's aura on me. Perhaps it's a coincidence, or perhaps it's the arrangement of fate. She is certain it's me, and I am willing to take on this responsibility."

[Great Emperor Wushi]: "It's that simple."

A few simple sentences, yet they left everyone silent.

They could feel what a heavy emotion was contained within.

[The Only Honored One - Ruthless Great Emperor]: "Brother..."

Ruthless Great Emperor sent a message; only two words, yet everyone could feel that deep attachment.

[Black Emperor]: "Woof... this Emperor suddenly feels that witnessing this scene makes this life worthwhile..."

[Ye Fan]: "I... I think I understand something... Senior Ruthless, my blessings to you..."

While the atmosphere in the group was warm, in the distance, the fires of war had already ignited at the Immortal Tomb.

Over a dozen Supremes joined forces, erupting with power sufficient to make the entire star field tremble.

And the Supremes within the Immortal Tomb also resisted desperately.

This battle was destined to be recorded in history as the most tragic battle of Restricted Zones in all eternity!
