Chapter 2801: Chapter 2802: Sumeru Divine Ring
Hearing these words, the King of Huainan fell silent; this overlord of an era now actually gave off a sense of a hero whose courage had run dry.
This made Ye Luo feel a bit uncomfortable as well. To be honest, what the King of Huainan had done simply couldn’t be judged with a crude "good" or "evil"! Though he was cruel and bloodthirsty, he had also protected the Third Faction! So calling him an overlord was the most fitting.
"Do you really think you’re certain you can kill me?" The King of Huainan suddenly cast the three of them a disdainful glance.
The three of them immediately sneered.
"Our Strength is about the same. With the three of us, how could we not be able to kill you!" one of the old men said.
Then, a towering aura erupted from the three of them.
They were indeed Martial Emperor Realm experts; the Strength of these three was absolutely not inferior to that of the King of Huainan.
"King of Huainan, accept your fate! Today, you and this young master of yours must die. We already know you left your funeral portrait to this bastard. Never thought your lifetime of renown would be completely ruined at the end like this!" an old man snorted coldly.
"Is that so? Then have you ever wondered why I dared come to Mount Wudang so brazenly? Normally, I’m extremely cautious. So why am I so abnormal this time? I know—you must think my time is almost up, that I don’t care about life or death anymore, right? To tell you the truth, that’s what I was thinking too!"
Hearing this last sentence from the King of Huainan, the faces of the three old men changed.
What did he mean, "that’s what I was thinking too"? It meant the King of Huainan had already grasped their thoughts! Which in turn meant everything was within his control.
A scheme within a scheme! Could it be the King of Huainan still had another card to play?
Ye Luo narrowed his eyes at once. The King of Huainan was by nature suspicious and had godlike schemes—no one could say for sure a miracle wouldn’t happen.
"Hmph, spare us the act. This is nothing but an empty city ruse. We’ve been monitoring those experts under your command for a long time. This time you came to Mount Wudang alone; we’ve already investigated it thoroughly. But I advise you not to waste your energy. This Formation won’t dissipate any time soon—it’s more than enough for us to kill you!" one of the old men said disdainfully.
"That’s right, King of Huainan, in the end we’re only enemies because of利益. When we were young, we fought side by side as well. We’re not heartless people. We’ll give you a choice: hand over your power, and we’ll give you and your son a quick death!" another old man said.
"A quick death?" The King of Huainan suddenly burst out laughing. "Fine, in that case, I’ll give you a quick one instead!"
With that, his aura erupted as well, faintly surpassing the three by a head. In the Demon Realm, the Strength of the King of Huainan was absolutely at the pinnacle.
"Hmph, is your confidence based purely on your Strength? Looks like your brain really is broken. Even if your Strength were a bit above ours, what could that change? It can’t change your ultimate fate of falling here—of course, that goes for this bastard of yours as well!" the old man said with open disdain.
At the words "bastard," a ferocious light suddenly burst forth from the King of Huainan’s eyes. Seeing this, the expressions on the three old men’s faces all changed.
"You really are courting death!"
With that, he pulled out a tiny ring from his robe; this ring was actually a few sizes smaller than a Qiankun Ring.
Neither Ye Luo nor Nameless had ever seen this kind of ring before; they both took it to be some powerful Magic Artifact.
After all, on someone like the King of Huainan, how could there be any ordinary items?
But the faces of those three old men had already changed drastically!
"It’s actually the Sumeru Divine Ring—never thought this divine item would be in your hands!" an old man cried out on the spot.
"You do have some insight. But now, no matter what you say, it’s too late!"
As he finished, a stream of pure Mana wrapped around the Sumeru Divine Ring, and then the ring flashed with a white light.
"This is... the power of space?" Ye Luo muttered to himself, immediately realizing what the Sumeru Divine Ring was.
This was actually a strange kind of storage space!
It was called strange because it could store living beings! Including Cultivators!
As everyone knew, while a Qiankun Ring could store items, it absolutely could not store Cultivators inside.
On this point alone, the Sumeru Divine Ring was defying the heavens!
For example, if the King of Huainan were leading troops on a surprise attack, he could place the army inside this Sumeru Divine Ring—he’d practically achieve a completely silent and traceless strike!
And it was said this Sumeru Divine Ring was refined using a Cultivator’s Divine Kingdom, making it incredibly precious!
After all, the failure rate of such refinement was very high, and a Cultivator’s Divine Kingdom was incomparably mysterious. Not every Cultivator could even give rise to a Divine Kingdom! This had nothing to do with realm or Strength. Take Ye Luo, for example: he possessed a Divine Kingdom even at a low realm, which was completely a matter of luck.
Of course, what truly terrified the three old men wasn’t the Sumeru Divine Ring itself. Though this item was precious to them, it wasn’t enough to make them panic—after all, the Sumeru Divine Ring had no offensive power.
What terrified them was what exactly was inside this Sumeru Divine Ring.
And soon, the King of Huainan gave them the answer!
A figure suddenly appeared from within the Sumeru Divine Ring. It was a middle-aged man whose aura was only at the Martial King Realm. Compared to ordinary Cultivators, this realm was already decent, but in front of the three old men, it wasn’t worth mentioning at all!
Even Ye Luo and Nameless were somewhat puzzled. Was this the helper the King of Huainan had brought? It seemed rather shabby.
Not to mention anything else—even if another Martial Emperor Realm expert appeared, it still wouldn’t change the predicament of the King of Huainan.
However, when the three old men saw this person, they all stepped back a few paces.
"The Demon Realm’s Sword Saint—you’re actually still alive!" an old man exclaimed.
"Oh? After all these years, there are still people who remember my name?" The middle-aged man looked at the three old men with interest.
Hearing his response, cold sweat began to roll down the foreheads of the three old men.
When they were young, they’d grown up hearing the legends of this Sword Saint. Even now, with their cultivation reaching the heavens, they still maintained a fear and respect for him.
You could say the Sword Saint was their idol.
Yet they also understood that now they stood on the opposite side of the Sword Saint, and their situation could only end in mutual destruction.
"Are you really making me act? This is your last chance!" The Sword Saint suddenly looked at the King of Huainan, then seemed to understand. "I see... never thought you’d walk ahead of me. Although you’re my junior, you and I can be considered kindred spirits. Enough, I’ll help you this once."
There was a hint of sadness in the Sword Saint’s tone.
Clearly, his relationship with the King of Huainan was anything but shallow.
