Chapter 1458: Chapter 1406 – Chapter 1407: Offensive and Defensive Alliance – Must Be Rescued Chapter 1458: Chapter 1406 – Chapter 1407: Offensive and Defensive Alliance – Must Be Rescued The intervention of a Great Ancient Emperor was bound to shake the heavens and the earth, especially since the Ancient Sun Emperor had lashed out in a fury moments ago, sparing no effort at all. The terrifying might caused the firmament to tremble, naturally drawing the attention of many formidable beings.
If the move of the Ancient Sun Emperor had only attracted the notice of beings at the level of the other Great Ancient Emperors, then when the Southern Dipper Grand Array began, the vast and majestic starlight descending from the sky turned the daylight sky into a canvas of starlight, a sight that any powerful being could witness.
Especially when some realized that the source of this grand spectacle was the Sun Divine Palace, they immediately realized it was the Ancient Sun Emperor who was involved. Someone had arrived at the Sun Divine Palace and was engaged in a fierce battle with him.
Considering the Emperor Monarch's missive they were all currently contending over, and this particular battle, they instantly understood that this was a calculated move, a scheme targeting the Ancient Sun Emperor.
What surprised many powerful beings was that they could only sense the power of the Ancient Sun Emperor alone at the level of the Great Ancient Emperors; no other might of that caliber could be detected.
This left them puzzled; if there wasn't an opponent at the level of a Great Ancient Emperor, then what exactly had happened to provoke such fury in the Ancient Sun Emperor?
Moreover, if such a scheme was hatched without the might of a Great Ancient Emperor, did they truly intend to challenge a Great Ancient Emperor with the audacity of a Supreme King? This was madness, the immediate reaction in the minds of those Great Ancient Emperors.
But as they continued to scrutinize the adversary trading blows with the Ancient Sun Emperor, they could be certain, despite the formidable presence unleashed, that this was not a Great Ancient Emperor-tier being.
There were indeed madmen daring to challenge a Great Ancient Emperor, even one as powerful and yet un-deposed.
Instantly, these Great Ancient Emperors began to abandon the contest over the Emperor Monarch's missive and rushed toward the direction of the Sun Divine Palace instead.
To them, the issue with the Emperor Monarch's missive wouldn't see results in short order; thus, instead of wasting time here, it made more sense to head straight to the Sun Divine Palace to find out who dared to undertake such a lunatic act.
Of course, these Great Ancient Emperors were divided into different camps, each with distinct objectives, like those belonging to the Ancient Sun Emperor's faction, whose primary goal now was to mount a rescue.
No matter the origin or the madness of the challenger, the very fact that they dared to appear here to issue a challenge proved that they had aces up their sleeves, deeming themselves capable of threatening the Ancient Sun Emperor.
Had the Ancient Sun Emperor been at the peak of his prime, they wouldn't have any worries, believing that he could face any challenge and crush any adversary.
However, the Ancient Sun Emperor wasn't at his peak now; fearing the worst-case scenario – if the unthinkable occurred and they lost such a mighty figure – that would undoubtedly be a significant loss for their camp and would affect their faction's status.
You must understand, their faction wasn't at a great advantage to begin with, and they needed to face not only the rebellious Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder but also their backers, the formidable beings of the Divine Land World – their true opponents.
Although the people of the Divine Land World had not yet taken action, this did not mean they wouldn't, a situation they feared the most.
However, for these beings, the glimmer of hope was that the True Immortals seemed to be deliberately holding back, apparently using this as a military exercise, which undeniably gave them ample time to strengthen themselves.
Without a doubt, this was contempt: their numerous powerful beings, their mighty world, were trivial in the eyes of the enemy, used merely as a training ground to hone their successors.
But although being underestimated this way was a great humiliation, with the pressure of life-and-death crisis bearing down, what was a bit of pride worth? As long as they could secure the final victory, all sacrifices would be worthwhile.
Undoubtedly, in this situation, the forces of their alliance were all meaningful; not a single loss could be afforded. This was why they had changed their previous stance, willing to support the Ancient Sun Emperor in repressing the Great Yin Emperor, achieving the Great Yin-Yang Path, for they were in dire need of a top-tier mighty being.
If another mighty being emerged, like the supreme powerhouse Longevity Taoist Monarch of the Divine Land World…
No, they didn't even need one as powerful; they just needed such a being to reach the level of the Divinely Transformed Incarnation of the Longevity Taoist Monarch, the Emperor of the South Pole Eternal Life. Their status would change, and the scene would be drastically different.
At the very least, the emergence of such a powerhouse meant they could hold an equal dialogue with the formidable beings of the Divine Land World, potentially preserving their own world.
Even if they ultimately couldn't contend with these powerful beings of the Divine Land World in the future, having a top-notch figure would ensure a much higher status than the current, at the very least proving their might against the strong of the Divine Land World.
This was the innermost true thought of many strong beings in the Ancient Sun Emperor's faction; their outward resistance was not truly a desire for mutual destruction.
