<h4>Chapter 1207 - A True Martial Emperor Battle</h4>


    Trantor: Aran


    It was the sovereign of the Sky-reaching n.


    His aura was very simr to the Supreme Commander of the Sky-reaching n, so Ye Qingyu immediately identified him.


    Naturally, the Supreme Commander of the Dark Feather n had also apanied the sovereign of the Sky-reaching n.


    The third Martial Emperor was as burly as a mountain but his aura was rtively unfamiliar to Ye Qingyu. There were some simrities between his aura and the Supreme Commander of the Lofty Mountain n who he killed, but upon closer observation, there were stark differences in their aura as well, so he couldn''t identify him immediately.


    The moment the three Martial Emperors appeared, the situation immediately became extremely dangerous.


    Ye Qingyu could tell that the sovereign of the Sky-reaching n and the others were in peak condition and were no longer repressing their true cultivation, so they had already ascended to their Martial Emperor cultivation, so it was incredibly terrifying. They sealed the entire battlefield in space with their appearance and this was the same method that Ye Qingyu had used earlier to trap the other Quasi-emperors. It would take him a bit of time to break past this barrier that they had put in ce and obviously, the sovereign of the Sky-reaching n and the others were definitely not going to give Ye Qingyu the time and opportunity he needed to break free.


    "You guys have really gone all out in order to kill me and even ascended to your true Martial Emperor cultivation. Does this mean that you''ve already given up on the final goal that you''ve been striving for all these years?" Ye Qingyu quickly calmed down.


    The sovereign of the Sky-reaching nughed coldly and said derisively, "How would a puny Human Race underling like yourself who became an Emperor by chance understand the true resources of a Martial Emperor? We might have ascended to our full power today but we also have our own methods of preventing this from affecting our lifespan. Killing you wouldn''t affect our ultimate goals, so you should ept your fate quietly."


    "Ha ha, I told you that I''ll kill you one day and today is that day," the sovereign of the Dark Feather n said as he slowly approached Ye Qingyu.


    He was full of murderous intent toward Ye Qingyu and had been itching for a chance to kill him for the longest time.


    The third Martial Emperor who was as burly as a mountain did not say anything but his eyes shed with strong murderous spirit and hatred.


    Ye Qingyu gently squeezed Song Xiaojun''s hand and said, "Does this mean that you''ve already investigated my identity?"


    The sovereign of the Sky-reaching n scoffed coldly and said, "Didn''t you say that you didn''t like to waste time dwelling on meaningless words? Are you trying to buy time now?" Then, he could not hide the contempt on his face as he continued, "Since there''s no way you''d be able to walk out of this battlefield alive today, I guess it wouldn''t hurt to tell you the truth. That''s right, we''ve already figured out your identity the day after you became a Martial Emperor and all the sovereigns within the Royal City including the old man from the Sun n know who you are. Ha ha, the Dark Realm has reigned supreme over this area for millions of years and we''ll know everything that has happened within the Vast Thousand Domains. Although our ancient ancestors haveid down the rule that the experts of the Dark Realm may not enter the Vast Thousand Domains, this does not mean that we''re not aware of what is going on there. You''ve underestimated the power and control the sovereigns of the Dark Realm have over the Vast Thousand Domains. We did not kill you because we were merely biding our time."


    The sovereign of the Sky-reaching n and the others have been greatly oppressed by Ye Qingyu recently. After several exchanges of words between themselves and Ye Qingyu, they had been utterly humiliated. When was thest time he had suffered such humiliation since he became a Martial Emperor himself?


    Thus, the sovereign of the Sky-reaching n was naturally more talkative than the others.


    "We did not attack you because we were poorly prepared back then, but you continued to provoke us time and time again, as though you were tempting death. You barely know anything about us but yet you''ve naively believed that you have managed to corner us. Do you truly think that we wouldn''t be able to crush you?" the sovereign of the Dark Feather n vented, as though he wanted to get this off his chest. "We merelycked nutrition and didn''t have enough energy to deal with you back then. But today is the day that you''ll die."


    He wanted to vent his anger longed to see Ye Qingyu''s despairing expression because this young man was truly too arrogant.


    "What are we waiting for? Let''s kill him," the burly Martial Emperor who gave off abundant earth energy was clearly a Martial Emperor who had cultivated the martial way of the earth. He had never exchanged blows with Ye Qingyu, neither had he appeared before this and from the way he spoke, he sounded like he was just mechanically trying to carry out his mission.


    Those three Martial Emperors had already assumed that Ye Qingyu was doomed to die today.


    They closed in on him and their power of Emperor Daows and aura surged like boundless oceans and the space all around them waspletely sealed. They did not only use their own powers of Emperor Daows to seal this entire space but they had also used a powerful Emperor weapon to lock down the void and even froze time, as though this part of space had been extracted from its part of the world.


    They were admiring the expression on Ye Qingyu''s face before he died and wanted to see the arrogant peasant boy grovel and beg.


    However, Ye Qingyu remainedpletely calm.


    He did not panic and said calmly, "Very well. Since you''re so sure that you''ll be able to kill me today, could you answer one final question?"


    "Cut the crap. Die," the burly Martial Emperor said and seemed very anxious to attack.


    The sovereign of the Sky-reaching n chuckled loudly and said, "My friend, please wait. There''s no need to rush through things..." He looked at Ye Qingyu and said with a mockingugh, "Go on, what would you like to know? It would be better to remain silent if you''re going to beg for mercy. If you''re going to die, you should die with the dignity of a Martial Emperor. Moreover, even if you beg and grovel for mercy, ha ha ha, I will definitely not spare you either. Ha ha ha!"


    His mannerisms and attitude werepletely unbing of a Martial Emperor and he had lost hisposure.


    Ye Qingyu shook his head. He thought that the supreme prodigies of the past who had been hiding in darkness for such a long time like dark ghosts that they had be slightly psychopathic.


    "Are you here to kill me due to our personal grudges, or is there another reason for your actions today?" Ye Qingyu verbalized his doubts.


    He felt that things were definitely not as simple as they seemed.


    "You''ve provoked us, so you deserve death," the sovereign of the Dark Feather n said coldly.


    "Does this mean that this boils down to our personal grudges?" Ye Qingyu did not seem enraged by the contemptuous tone in the sovereign of the Dark Feather n''s voice.


    The sovereign of the Sky-reaching n took a deep breath and said, "If we spare you today, the entire Royal City will think that the Sky-reaching n, Dark Feather n, and Lofty Mountain n are pushovers."


    Ye Qingyu shook his head and said, "Honor and reputation, these are all excuses that you''re leveraging on to kill me. The deaths of your great-great-grandsons shouldn''t bother you and familial affection and honor mean very little to you right now. The n elders of the current generation are your great-great-grandsons with several dozen generations between yourselves and them, so your blood has already been diluted a long time ago. You only care about that thing and you would give up everything for that sharedmon goal. Even if you''ve discovered a method that would be able to allow you to ascend to your Martial Emperor cultivation without sacrificing your lifespan, you would not waste such a chance to deal with a puny character like myself. So, there has to be another reason behind your actions today."


    The sovereign of Sky-reaching n''s expression changed as he said, "You seem to think you know everything."


    Ye Qingyu burst outughing and said, "Ha ha, so I was right after all. You would only throw all caution to the wind to destroy something that threatens to topple the control you have over your ultimate goal since you are all such selfish and evil creatures... In other words, you... Oh wait, it should be all of you, I''m not sure how big this organization is, but I''m pretty sure that you have agreed that I''ll be a threat to your ultimate goals, so you havee today to kill me."


    The expressions of all three Martial Emperors changed slightly.


    "Die." the burly Martial Emperor whose figure was as muscr as mountains immediately attacked.


    The void shook and there was a series of crashing sounds as though mountain ranges had copsed. The power of Daows surged with a destructive force. This was the true power of a Martial Emperor and its power wasparable to Ye Qingyu''s. It was as though the entire space was disintegrating like a mountain range and threatened to kill all living creatures within it.


    "[Cloud Top Cauldron]!" Ye Qingyu yelled.


    The [Cloud Top Cauldron] immediately appeared and unleashed a matchless mist that glowed with Immortal light and this mist enveloped Song Xiaojun and the Celestial Phoenix Maiden whose cultivation had been sealed. As for Ye Qingyu, he held the [Blood Drinker Sword] in his hand and shed out with it. The sword will of the [Life Sword Mantra] burst forth and instantly destroyed the illusion of mountains disintegrating.


    At the same time, his sword will did not diminish in power and immediately transformed into a long silver dragon that was several hundred kiometers long. This silver dragon growled like a starry giant dragon and pounced at the burly Martial Emperor with its mouth wide open, as though it was about to swallow him whole.


    "Destroy!" the burly Martial Emperor yelled angrily and punched out his fists, smashing the long silver dragon into pieces.


    Silver light scattered and he emerged unscathed from this attack.


    However, he looked incredibly livid because it was obvious that his attack had been much weakerpared to Ye Qingyu''s.


    How could he ept this reality?


    He had already been a Martial Emperor for a long time and had reached this stage much earlier than Ye Qingyu and yet, he had now lost to a young punk who had only been a Martial Emperor for a short while and this left him feelingpletely humiliated. If he wanted to kill Ye Qingyu earlier because he did not like this young man, after they exchanged blows, he was more determined than ever to kill him.


    "Come on," he bellowed.


    The illusion appeared once more in the void.


    "Stand back. I''ll be the one to kill him."


    He waspletely enraged this time.


    Many rockys appeared in space.


    The cage that had beenid out earlier to trap Ye Qingyu within expanded in size under the control of the other two Martial Emperors. It quickly transformed into a huge ball-shaped cage with a radius of many thousands of kilometers and it was incredibly huge. They had to increase the size of this cage so that it could bear the brunt of the energy attacks of two Martial Emperors. Otherwise, Ye QIngyu might be able to use this energy to his advantage.


    The rocky howled and ripped apart the skies as they hurtled straight at Ye Qingyu.


    "Why did you have to get so angry? If we battle one-on-one, none of you will be my match. Your time in the spotlight has already passed... kill!" Ye Qingyu said.


    Then, his figure swiftly expanded and he transformed into a giant that stood in space. Thes were like little balls that floated beside him and he looked like he could crush them at any moment. His [Blood Drinker Sword] had also transformed into a sword that could rip the heavens apart and as Ye Qingyu flicked his wrist, countless rays of sword will from his [Life Sword Mantra] exploded from his huge silver sword to transform into a long silver dragon that released a mighty growl. This time, the silver dragon was sorge that its body covered the heavens and the sun and was at least several hundreds of thousands of kilometers long. It then opened its mouth to swallow thes that rushed toward him one at a time.


    The true Martial Emperor battle had begun at this moment.
