Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 3744 Hunted

Chapter 3744  Hunted

The white-robed man panned his gaze.

"There is a small, independent realm known as the First Haven World, and many of you have more or less entered into a contract with the master of that realm."

"…" The Patriarchs of the many factions present lowered their heads further.

The likes of Earth Dragon Lower Realm's Realm Master and Fire Phoenix Lower Realm's Realm Master were also here, lowering their heads firmly as though they were deeply ashamed.

The white-robed man waved his hand lightly.

"I understand the intentions behind it was to uncover that person's legacy and transform their cultivation method to one that suits and pleases the heavens as we did with the Transcendent Cultivation System. However-"

"The heavens have deemed that there is no such use for this blasphemous cultivation method."

"…!"

"You have all wronged the very essence of this universe and are deserving of a thousand deaths!"

"O Supreme One! Mercy!"

"Please forgive us!"

"We will never do it again!"

The rulers of the various powers all dropped to their knees and began to kowtow. Their heads repeatedly hit the ground, which would shock anyone standing outside as these people were literally the rulers of the third layer of their Three-Layered Universe.

The rulers gathered here appeared to be pitiful. They knew the consequences of being stubborn today. It wouldn't mean their heads would come off, but it would literally mean the end of their realms.

They couldn't allow such a thing to pass.

Therefore, they willingly lowered their heads to be spared.

The diplomats from the Upper Realms behind them were also looking at them coldly, ready to lop off their heads.

The white-robed man raised his hand, indicating them for their to stay their hand.

"Though the heavens are fair and magnanimous, they may not have eyes and ears. They might not see your plight or heed your circumstances, but I will, and I have witnessed your determination in handing over your Legacy Treasures, which carry most of your factions' karmic luck and are used to bring this menace to an end."

"Yes!~~~"

Everyone roared, but they kept their heads lowered.

However, behind their fanatical expressions was a deep sense of loss.

Not only were they going to lose their powerful Legacy Treasures, but they were also going to lose the millions of years' worth of effort they put into entering a contract with an Anarchic Divergent, which was going to be all ruined, leaving them with nothing but loss.

Their investment all went down the drain.

However, such whimsical happenings were also a part of the cultivation world, so they tried to get into the good grace of the man before them, someone they would never see in their lifetime.

They were also excited to serve under him and bring glory to the human race!

The white-robed man turned to look at the Legacy Treasures and the karmic treasure placed at the center.

'Sigh… it seems like you can no longer escape from me.'

He raised his hand, holding a formation core. If it activated, then this formation was capable of unleashing a fatal karmic attack at the expense of the karmic luck of more than two hundred major powers in the third layer of the Three-Layered Universe, not to mention the sacrifice of the Legacy Treasures that were at the Empyrean or Autarch Grade.

He looked at the formation core and the karmic treasure, blinking as though he was tired.

'Why bother doing such a ridiculous thing such as the Candidacy while knowing it would entrap yourself into a sinking karmic quagmire between these powers and yourself, allowing you to be targeted by a powerful karmic attack such as this one?'

'Don't tell me you didn't expect these powers to unite under one banner and target you back? Don't tell me you didn't expect me to do this…?'

He stared straight, his gaze firm yet possessing a hint of sadness about what he was about to do.

In the end, he closed his eyes.

'Rest well, Davina Hyluan Atlas of the Chrono Reign Upper Realm and Void Autarch Upper Realm. Your legend will not be remembered by the living beings of this universe sooner or later, but I will never forget.'

When he opened his eyes, that hint of sadness was no longer there.

"Die, you evil plague of our beloved universe!" He uttered with a gentle fury.

The formation core in his hand began to glow, and the runes underneath the altar lit up, abruptly covering all the Legacy Artifacts in a resplendent ray of light from below.

*Pui!~*

At that moment, every person connected to those Legacy Treasures spat a mouthful of blood. They raised their heads forcefully, watching the Legacy Treasures shatter and disperse as though they didn't exist, only for the karmic treasure in the middle to shudder and scatter along with them.

However, they knew the Peak-Level Empyrean Grade Karmic Treasure, along with the karmic connection they all possessed with the target, was more than enough to deal a fatal blow of death, or at least, they speculated it was enough.

The grand hall went silent. There was no significant or special phenomenon happening, making many question if this was a success.

However, the Celestial Transcendent turned to look at them, cupping his hands.

"Everyone, the vile plague that corrupted our universe should no longer be present. That person's realm should soon appear somewhere in the universe. It doesn't matter if it doesn't reach our hands, but if it does and is present somewhere in our galaxy, make sure to treat it as a secret realm of the highest order comparable to the opening of certain dimensions."

"Yes!"

The factions present echoed at the top of their lungs, appearing fervent as they realized even if they didn't gain anything from their investment, the First Haven World and the space surrounding it should be no different than a fruit ripe for the taking.

It might induce a war of its own amidst them.

"But all is not over…"

The Celestial Transcendent continued to address, "What you're seeing here is one of my many avatars. I have returned to my Greater Realm as I have many matters to take care of, so I need you all to gather your elite forces and cooperate with Heaven's Warrior Elurro Coldwing in order to hunt down the massive threat known as the Divine Emperor of Death."

"Of course. Leave it to us, O Supreme One!~"

"Leave it to us!"

The rulers of the Lower Realms roared their hearts out, almost willing to do anything for this man who allowed them to stand tall amongst many powerful races in the Three-Layered Universe.
