227: God Corpse

The Endless Sea Region, Eleventh Domain.

After the three members of the Lu Family died, on the Lu Family Island, a group of people once again knelt before the idol of the Blood Slaughter Blade Emperor.

Inside the idol, roars filled with grief, indignation, malice, and hatred erupted.

"An Lan, how cruel you are. My two sons had already become Emperors. Their future achievements were limitless, and they might even have competed for the God Position."

"But everything is ruined. An Lan, you beast, you deceived everyone and set up such a massive hoax. You deserve ten thousand deaths."

"And that Ji Mo, you share responsibility for the deaths of my three sons. You deserve death even more."

The Blood Slaughter Blade Emperor's hatred soared to the heavens, and he roared maniacally.

He was not as grief-stricken over the death of the Third Elder; after all, he was an Imperial Rank expert whose talent was exhausted, and their relationship wasn't intimate. The Family could absorb the loss of one such person.

However, the death of his two sons who had achieved the Imperial Rank caused him immense heartache, which is why he displayed such fury.

Everyone beneath the idol trembled. Left with no choice, only the Lu Family's Grand Elder spoke:

"Patriarch, please do not be angry. This is a critical period for you to charge the God Realm. You must not let it affect your state of mind."

"There is also a piece of news you might find interesting. Treasure Gathering Pavilion has announced that they will soon auction a remnant corpse suspected to be God Rank, which we believe will aid your charge toward the God Rank."

"Hmm?" The Blood Slaughter Blade Emperor was greatly startled. "It should be impossible for a divine corpse to appear on this Plane. Is the news reliable?"

"It is news personally spread by the Treasure Gathering Pavilion. This remnant corpse was reportedly discovered in an ancient ruin, dating back at least tens of thousands or even millions of years.

The remnant corpse still contains faint Divine Rules. If it weren't for the attitude of the person who found this information at the ruin, the person who obtained the remnant corpse would not have put it up for auction."

"We must obtain it," the Blood Slaughter Blade Emperor roared, his emotions somewhat agitated,

"This must undoubtedly be from the Divine Antiquity. Although Imperial Rank experts are said to share the Lifespan of heaven and earth, they still have Lifespan limitations, so this remnant corpse absolutely cannot be Imperial Rank.

As long as I acquire this remnant corpse, I will definitely be able to Breakthrough to the God Rank. When that happens, I will lead our Lu Family into a higher Plane, Ascending the entire Family, and every member of our Lu Family can become a god!"

"Master, please let me handle this matter!" A burly man suddenly stood up from the back of the crowd.

This was the attendant who had followed the Blood Slaughter Blade Emperor since childhood. He was loyal and devoted, and was now an Imperial Rank Fifth Heaven expert.

"Good! Xiaohu, I'll leave this matter to you. No matter the cost, you must secure it. The Lu Family will give you full cooperation."

The Blood Slaughter Blade Emperor's meaning was self-evident: even if they had to seize it by force, they must obtain it.

"Xiaohu understands. Master, await my good news." The burly man named Xiaohu guaranteed with an oath.

Similar events were happening elsewhere. Various powers and Families were startled by this news; anything associated with the word 'God' was extraordinary.

The Endless Sea Region, Eighth Domain, Heavenly Punishment Army Headquarters.

Inside a palace, the Ice Emperor's main body had returned and was seated on the main seat.

Below him were several other Imperial Rank experts. One of them had an aura similar to the Ice Emperor, an Imperial Rank Sixth Heaven expert.

The remaining few were all around Imperial Rank First or Second Heaven.

They were also discussing matters concerning this auction. Everyone was determined to obtain that God Rank remnant body.

Just then, the Ice Emperor suddenly stood up, staring outside with a shocked expression.

In an instant, the Sun Emperor's figure appeared in the grand hall.

"Sun Emperor, you're actually still alive!" His tone was full of disbelief. Knowing the circumstances, since his Clone had died, the Sun Emperor should not have been able to hold on for much longer.

Upon hearing the question, the Sun Emperor recalled the events, still looking shaken.

Afterward, the Sun Emperor recounted his experiences in the ruin to these people.

"Are you saying An Lan used the altar to resurrect, fought a great battle with Ji Mo and the others, shattering the Formation, which allowed you to escape, and that An Lan was ultimately killed by Ji Mo?"

"Ji Mo actually knows a God Rank Sword Technique, and his strength can rival the Imperial Rank Late Stage!"

"Lord Ice Emperor, we must establish good relations with this person!"

"Yes, that's right. The fact that this young man produced a God Rank Sword Technique shows how highly the God Rank expert behind him regards him. We must establish good relations."

The Ice Emperor looked solemn. The existence of a God Rank expert was certainly something to take seriously.

"Sun Emperor, the Treasure Gathering Pavilion is auctioning a remnant corpse suspected to be God Rank this time. This remnant corpse was found in the Second Domain of the Endless Sea Region, so the auction will be held there. You will go with me this time.

"Alright." The Sun Emperor naturally wouldn't refuse; he was more eager to solidify his relationship with Ji Mo... Moon Island.

Ji Mo was still in secluded cultivation when a knock on the door interrupted him.

Needless to say, it must be that woman Yan Qingcheng again. Otherwise, no one would dare disturb him.

As soon as he opened the door, the woman rushed in.

"Young Master Ji Mo, huge news! Treasure Gathering Pavilion is going to auction a corpse suspected to belong to a God Rank expert in a few days."

He was startled. "Are you sure it's a God Rank corpse?"

Yan Qingcheng laughed awkwardly. "Young Master, it's suspected, suspected, not completely confirmed."

"The Treasure Gathering Pavilion is a major power spanning all twelve domains of the Endless Sea Region. If even they can't confirm it, it means it is very likely real."

"Young Master, do you want to go? I can guide you and accompany you. All the resources of the Moon Palace are available for you to use, but unfortunately, they won't be of much help to you, as that God Rank remnant corpse is too precious."

Just then, Elder Mu instantly teleported over.

"Kid, if it's a God Rank corpse, it will be extremely useful. Observing your Cultivation Technique, you can refine all resources. Even if you don't use it for anything else, refining it yourself will definitely boost your strength significantly."

"It seems we can't afford not to get involved in this auction."

Ji Mo suddenly asked, "Will the Lu Family go too?"

"Naturally, they will. Not just the Lu Family, but major Families and great Powers from all twelve domains of the Endless Sea Region will send representatives this time."

"Now we have even more reason to go. Qingcheng, pay attention to the time—the time for departure. Elder Mu and I will follow your team."

"Understood, Young Master. Qingcheng understands." Hearing Ji Mo call her Qingcheng, she was overjoyed.

Two days later,

A massive phoenix carriage soared up from Moon Island.

Outside the phoenix carriage were hundreds of Moon Palace elites, a few of whom were Saint Rank, while the rest were all at the Void Shattering Realm Peak.

The only thing they had in common was that they were all women, uniformly outstanding in appearance and graceful in figure.

Inside the phoenix carriage, Elder Mu casually leaned against the side, drinking wine.

Ji Mo also lacked any pretense of propriety, lying casually, while Yan Qingcheng simply squeezed into his arms.

He was currently troubled. This woman truly had no sense of shame, having abandoned all face; whenever she was with him, she would cling to him.
