Yuhua acted decisively and efficiently.
In Sword Domain, there was only one Eighth-tier Great Emperor.
Here, however, they had a total of four Great Emperors.
The Sword Master, fighting on home turf, might be able to contend against two opponents, but as long as Yuhua was present, he alone could suppress the enemy.
Such was the might of Emperor Yuhua.
This person, the strongest below Ninth-tier, felt no pressure even when facing the Sword Master on his home ground.
"Yes."
Everyone retreated quickly.
The crisis in Sword Domain was an opportunity for Shenxiao.
...
Chiyang Domain.
A figure, like a phantom, entered Chiyang Domain.
This person headed straight for the central Chiyang Realm, and no one blocked their path.
Within the Chiyang Realm, as radiant as a great sun, a Great Emperor emerged to personally greet this figure.
After a brief exchange, the phantom-like figure departed swiftly.
Almost simultaneously, Sword Domain also received a phantom-like visitor.
Just like in Chiyang Domain, after a short conversation, the visitor left.
Silently, without anyone noticing.
...
In the distant Dragon Phoenix Domain.
The body of the Dragon King spanned across the heavens and earth.
When the phantom-like figure approached, the Dragon King merely cast a glance, which dispersed the mist around the phantom, revealing its true appearance.
"Greetings, Dragon King."
The visitor's demeanor was respectful, bowing before the Dragon King.
"Why have you come?" the Dragon King asked.
A smile played on the man's lips. "To discuss a transaction with you, Dragon King."
"Oh?"
The Dragon King smiled faintly. "You, of all people, are worthy of making a transaction with me?"
"Dragon King, please be patient."
The visitor seemed confident and spoke softly about the proposed transaction.
His words were rapid, completing the narration in less than a minute.
"Oh?"
The Dragon King's eyebrows twitched. "If what you say is true, I might find myself interested."
"Very well, I agree."
A smile spread across the visitor's face. "Pleasure doing business with you."
"You are not welcome to stay."
The Dragon King's expression was cold.
This person was not worthy of him personally escorting them out.
...
The Realm of Life and Death.
At this moment, Chen Fan was drifting in the River of Yin and Yang.
The Chaos was vast, and the Great Dao of Yin and Yang permeated the entire Chaos, with pervasive Yin and Yang energy acting as his eyes and ears.
He had never experienced such a sensation; the entire Chaos seemed to be laid bare before him.
Chen Fan was overjoyed by comprehending the entire Chaos.
He could even clearly feel his own continuous growth.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, a violent fluctuation of Chaos rippled through heaven and earth.
Rounds of great suns pierced through the Chaos.
However, the aura of these great suns was very subtle; if not for the profound nature of his Yin and Yang Great Dao, it would have been difficult to detect.
He looked over curiously.
Abruptly, a powerful will surged towards him.
"Who dares to spy on this Emperor?" a furious roar shattered the prying gaze.
The rounds of great suns simultaneously turned towards the largest, most colossal sun in the center. "Realm Master, what is it?"
"Someone is probing."
Emperor Chiyang's expression was grave.
Upon hearing this, the others nearby immediately changed color.
Someone was probing?
One of them frowned. "Could the plan have been discovered?"
...
The scene fell into silence for a moment.
After a while, a voice emanated from the largest great sun. "No, the one probing is very weak. If they were an enemy, why would they send someone so weak?"
"Perhaps it's some powerful Chaos wanderer. Of course, even if the plan is discovered, we cannot turn back now."
"Understood."
From the other great suns, no one spoke.
A group of great sun-like orbs continued to traverse the Chaos.
Yet, the figure within the largest great sun harbored a hint of doubt. "Why do I feel a sense of yearning?"
A feeling that was difficult to articulate.
That fleeting gaze gave him a sense of urgency, as if the person possessed something he desperately needed.
"What is it?"
Before him, a silver space boot appeared. "Is it you?"
The only possibility.
...
The Realm of Life and Death.
"Gasp."
Chen Fan, who was in the midst of his enlightenment, suddenly opened his eyes and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
"Emperor Chiyang."
His eyes were filled with terror.
So powerful.
Just a distant gaze was enough for the other party to detect him, and a sharp roar shattered his prying vision.
Eighth-tier, is this the might of Eighth-tier?
It was unimaginable; the difference from Seventh-tier was immense.
Whoosh.
Elder Demon Chu quickly approached.
Seeing the City Lord spitting blood, a flicker of surprise crossed his eyes. "City Lord, what is this..."
"...I may have encountered Emperor Chiyang."
Emperor Chiyang, a name known throughout the Thunder Domain.
His voice was not intentionally concealed.
As soon as his words fell, figures rapidly approached.
Immortal Emperor, Qisha, Emperor Yu, Overlord, Zhao Kai, Xi Qiu...
In a short moment, more than ten people had gathered before him.
All their gazes were fixed on Chen Fan with shock.
"City Lord."
Emperor Yu's eyes were extremely solemn. "You just said you encountered Emperor Chiyang?"
"That's right."
Chen Fan nodded. "Besides him, I can't think of anyone else."
He then recounted his recent experience.
"Then it could only be Emperor Chiyang."
Qisha had fully integrated into the Realm of Life and Death.
In the past month, his cultivation had returned to its peak.
He now spoke, "A group of Great Emperors did not detect it, but only one person did. That can only be Emperor Chiyang."
"But... why would Emperor Chiyang appear in the Chaos? As a Realm Master, he generally wouldn't leave his world easily."
"And according to what the City Lord said, Chiyang Domain seemed to be mobilizing its entire force, with almost all Great Emperors dispatched."
"Where are they going?" asked Immortal Emperor.
The crowd exchanged glances, all pondering the actions of Chiyang Domain.
"Is it possible... they are planning to attack Sword Domain?"
Xi Qiu, standing at the back of the crowd, spoke gravely. "Based on what the City Lord said, the direction they are heading should be Sword Domain. Could Chiyang Domain be attacking Sword Domain?"
"No."
Qisha retorted. "Currently, Shenxiao Domain is weak, and both Sword Domain and Chiyang Domain should be attacking Shenxiao Domain."
"In the Chaos, two worlds of similar strength would not easily go to war. Even if they did, they would target the weaker ones first."
"Exactly."
Chen Fan agreed with this point. "Attacking Shenxiao Domain is the optimal choice. In that case, Chiyang Domain's movements are questionable."
"Shenxiao Domain has drawn Great Emperors from beyond the domain into the Thunder Domain."
Qisha continued. "Under these circumstances, it is even more unlikely for Sword Domain and Chiyang Domain to fight each other. And the joint offensive by these two domains now, besides seeking revenge, has another reason."
"What reason?"
Everyone looked at Qisha.
Qisha said grimly, "The Great Dao power of the Great Bright Domain."
"Hmm?"
The crowd was puzzled.
As an old Heavenly Emperor who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, Qisha clearly possessed much hidden information.
Before Qisha could speak, Emperor Yu said, "Thunder Domain is adjacent to Great Bright Domain. The enmity between the two domains dates back to the era of Thunder Master. In short, if people from Great Bright Domain enter Thunder Domain, they will be struck by lightning."
"If people from Thunder Domain enter Great Bright Domain, they will also encounter calamity."
"Unless they are shielded by the power of the other party's Great Dao universe."
