Chapter 1456: Chapter 1404 – Chapter 1405 Southern Dipper Grand Array Chapter 1456: Chapter 1404 – Chapter 1405 Southern Dipper Grand Array This power was a part of what restrained the Ancient Sun Emperor, its presence thoroughly eroded the splendid radiance of the great sun, seemingly adding a few imperfections, yet it was precisely because of this hint of imperfection that further progress became possible.
“The Emperor thought it was some Great Ancient Emperor that had come, but it turns out it's just a group of you ants,” the Ancient Sun Emperor's gaze was contemptuous, his tone filled with arrogance.
He had originally thought that the Emperor Monarch's missive had attracted everyone's attention, buying himself sufficient time, but what he had not expected was that a Great Ancient Emperor would actually resist the temptation of the Emperor Monarch's missive, which supplemented one's own foundation, and instead seek to put him to death.
The moment the Sun Divine Palace was attacked, he had thought it was the doing of a Great Emperor, which undeniably gave him a shock, as his condition was not at its peak, but upon emerging, he realized he had been overly worried.
Among the Great Ancient Emperors, there indeed were those adept at hiding their tracks, but within the bounds of the Sun Divine Palace, this was his home field; no Great Ancient Emperor could conceal themselves.
Therefore, the one who dared strike against him had only one answer, the assailant had yet to step into the Great Ancient Emperor Realm.
“Are Great Ancient Emperors so arrogant?” A voice rang out, followed by the appearance of Star Lord Due.
With the appearance of Star Lord Due, the other numerous Star Lords also materialized, specifically the three other Star Lords of the Five Elements aside from the Fire Virtue Star Lord and the Wood Virtue Star Lord, plus another six from their Southern Dipper, a total of nine Star Lords.
Nine Star Lords, each one having stepped into the tier of Supreme Overlords, even with Yi Suan's forte in deducing the Path of Heavenly Secrets, not adept in slaughter from the previous tier of Supreme Overlords, they were easily capable of suppressing any Supreme King of the same realm in this world.
The nine Star Lords stood each in their corner of the sky, taking positions in the formation of the Three Talents and the Six Harmonies, also subtly aligning with the positions of the Nine Palaces; it was evident a formation had been arranged. The emerging aura, intangible though it was, made even the void tremble, even Great Ancient Emperor-level powerhouses felt a sensation of suffocation.
“You!” A cold light flickered in the eyes of the Ancient Sun Emperor, although he was not a master of the Array, as a top-tier powerhouse, he had an extraordinary sense of danger.
Before these individuals manifested themselves, he had sensed several Supreme King-level powerhouses, but had not taken them to heart, considering his Authority had not yet waned, so a challenge from any below his tier was of no concern.
However, now that these nine had appeared and taken their positions with connected and complementing auras, the force they presented took even him by surprise, sniffing out a scent of danger.
“Ancient Sun Emperor, today will be the day you die!” Great White Star Lord's eyes were filled with murderous intent, he said coldly.
Strictly speaking, he bore no grudges against the Ancient Sun Emperor, the two had never encountered any conflicts, or even met or had any interaction.
Nevertheless, it did not prevent Great White Star Lord from harboring a desire to kill the Ancient Sun Emperor, because the opponent had become the whetstone selected for sharpening his sword, the fuel for his advancement, hence, even without any past acquaintance or debt of gratitude, he was resolutely prepared to wield his sword.
Such is the way of the Swordsman, such is the way of a Swordsman born in the Sword Sect.
In the world of the Divine Land, Cultivators stemming from any Sect bear the attributes of their origins: the effortless naturalness of the Taoist School, the stubborn preaching of the Buddhism School, the mania and ruthlessness of the Demonic Way, and the Sword Sect's extreme indifference.
Some say the Sword Sect has no sane people, they appear on the Righteous Path, but in truth they are no different from the Demonic Way, even more heartless, because while the Demonic Way's ruthlessness stems from interest, often times the Swordsman's is for the so-called 'Sword Heart'.
The actions of the Sword Sect's Swordsmen abide by their innermost feelings, not seeking anything else. Where the Sword Heart points, so too does the sword edge.
They can coexist peacefully with anyone, yet they can draw their sword on anyone if the Sword Heart wills it, using this as a means to hone their Sword Path, even if it means death at the hands of a stronger foe.
At this moment, Great White Star Lord was doing exactly that, having designated the opponent as a sharpening stone, the eventual outcome would be either slaying the Ancient Sun Emperor to achieve Sword Heart Clarity or both sword and man would perish.
“You are the subordinates of the Emperor of Longevity, the Star Lords of the heavenly gate, unimaginable that you're really so arrogant as to challenge the Emperor, truly seeking death!” the Ancient Sun Emperor roared with anger upon hearing this.
Even though he had never met them and didn't recognize all the powerhouses who descended upon the Divine Continent World, he had heard of the first batch of Star Lords under the command of the Emperor of Longevity.
The Ancient Sun Emperor was also no stranger to Cultivators following the Extreme Path Cultivation, not just present in the Divine Continent World but also in their realm, where many Martial Artists lingered on the edge of life and death, using the crisis as a spark to unlock their potential, seeking a breakthrough.
Now that these Star Lords had come together, their intentions were clear; they were using him as a sharpening stone for their Cultivation, attempting to Certify their Tao.
Yet, such a challenge represented glory for a challenger, even in death it symbolized courage.
But for the challenged, it was an immense humiliation, no powerhouse wanted to be someone else's stepping stone or be background fodder, singled out by an inferior Cultivator as someone a tier below yet still with a chance of victory, was an immense disrespect.
