Shrouding the Heavens: The Ruthless Heavenly Emperor

At this moment, his long hair disappeared, turning into a white, side-parted style that reached his eyelashes, and his sword-like eyebrows made him look somewhat cold.

The black robe he once wore has been transformed into a black battle suit, exuding a strong sense of technology, as if it were forged from meteorite iron and shimmering with a metallic luster.

As he walked down the street, various dreamlike streams of light shone on him, and at that moment, not many people noticed him.

Because in the eternal kingdom, there is no shortage of handsome people.

After walking for about two hours, he arrived at a huge platform. The platform was made of iron refined from meteorites, and starlight could be faintly seen emanating from it.

The platform is huge, at least the size of five or six football fields, and there is a huge pillar in the square with a giant screen on top of it.

At this moment, here

A lot of people came, and all sorts of noise and commotion filled the air, just like a vegetable market.

Although Xu Changqing couldn't understand what they were saying, people think while they speak, so he used his divine sense to instantly grasp the meaning of their words.

"As expected of a powerful figure from the starry sky, even Qi Pei was defeated. He used a second-tier precious medicine, yet he was still defeated. It's unbelievable."

"Look at what you're saying. If he wasn't strong, how could that slave have dared to enter the ancient road alone and even chase us all the way to our star field?"

"The show is about to begin. I heard that this time, a peerless genius has come to challenge this genius from beyond the stars."

"It's a pity we can only watch from the square. If I had the Gold Shard, I could have gone to see their battle in person."

The various discussions kept spreading, which was quite irritating.

Xu Changqing had no expression on his face, but he was also a little curious, so he followed some people onto the platform.

On the platform, several soldiers clad in silver armor were stationed. Behind them was a black hole, its edges seemingly surrounded by silver iron, with various patterns and flowing light swirling around it.

One by one, the creatures lined up again. One creature, covered in machinery, swaggered out and threw out five stones of different colors, which the soldiers then put in.

Seeing this, Xu Changqing took out five different minerals that emitted different substances and handed them to the soldiers. As expected, they successfully entered the cave.

A few days ago, the three women had a lot of these stones on them. According to them, these stones contained the power and laws of the five elements.

Collecting this stone allows one to extract its substances and laws, which are then mixed with the Destiny Stone to form a precious elixir for body refinement.

But it doesn't seem to work for him, so it's better to spend the money.

Upon entering the passage, I found it to be a golden metallic road, and I followed the creatures ahead.

After a while, they finally heard a commotion, and with a flash of light, a huge arena appeared before them.

It was a circular arena, surrounded by seats, with a huge screen on each opposite side.

At this moment, there are no fewer than 100,000 people here, but for this place, 100,000 people are equivalent to only 10 people.

Xu Changqing casually found a seat, touched the chair beneath him, and gently turned it, discovering that there were Saint-level runes slowly shimmering inside.

“A powerful expert has set up an array here to block the energy waves from spreading from the center of the arena, so it’s absolutely safe to sit here,” Xu Changqing thought to himself.

It's just unknown what level of expert set it up.

And so, Xu Changqing began to close his eyes and recuperate, awaiting the arrival of the great battle.

After what seemed like an eternity, many people gradually entered, and soon the place was packed.

Sitting to his right was an exceptionally handsome man, and to his left was a stunningly beautiful woman with wine-red hair that swayed gently in the breeze.

Xu Changqing took a closer look and immediately realized that these two were no ordinary people; however, he decided not to provoke them.

the best.

Soon, he discovered that his place was full of young people, with no middle-aged people at all; the middle-aged people were all on the side.

This struck him as very strange.

"Brother Daoist, do you think Qianlong can win?" Suddenly, Xu Changqing noticed someone asking him a question. He turned his head and saw that it was the handsome man.

This is a man with long, flowing hair, dressed in a blue robe, looking like an ancient person. His first impression is that he is sunny, handsome, and cheerful.

Xu Changqing shook his head and said indifferently, "I don't know."

However, he was thinking of someone.

In his memory, there was also a man named Qianlong.

He was the Holy Son of the Qiankun Holy Land, and he was originally on the opposite side because the Qiankun Holy Land and the Piaomiao Holy Land had been linked by marriage for generations.

His ex-wife, as a saintess, was naturally the wife of the Holy Son of Qiankun, but she had a child with him, so Xu Changqing was resented by Qianlong.

He caused him a lot of trouble back then, but in the end, when he was at the second level of the Immortal Realm, he was defeated by the Zhan Tian Dynasty.

"Brother Dao, why don't you make a guess?" the handsome man said with a slight smile.

He discovered that Xu Changqing was no ordinary person; just by sitting there, he exuded a sense of oppression, not intentionally, but through his unintentional actions.

For example, he saw Xu Changqing, who was propping his head up with his hand, yawning and ignoring everyone around him. You should know that everyone who can reach this position is a master among the younger generation.

Moreover, this is the best viewing spot, specifically provided for the younger generation.

Those who can look down on the younger generation are either truly powerful or arrogant.

However, he had no intention of harming Xu Changqing; he simply wanted to make his acquaintance with him.

"Too lazy to guess," Xu Changqing said rather boredly. What was there to guess? The great battle was about to begin.

"Dang Dang Dang"

At that moment, several bells rang, signaling the start of the great battle.

boom!

As soon as the bell stopped ringing, a dull sound came from the scene. An iron gate under the arena slowly opened, and several people dragged cages into the arena.

"Please welcome Qianlong from the Burial Emperor Star. He has now fought 2,999 battles and won them all!"

"However, this time, his opponent is a special person, a peerless genius who is famous throughout our Eternal Kingdom. I wonder if he can maintain his winning streak and enter the three thousand-win range."

As soon as the referee finished speaking, the cage was slowly pushed out from the dark corner, and inside the cage was a young man.

He had long, black hair that was disheveled. He kept his head down, his hair covering his entire face. He wore a dirty robe, which was covered in stains and blood.

Upon hearing the name Qianlong from the Burial Emperor Star, Xu Changqing was certain that it was someone he knew, though Qianlong looked quite disheveled.

Seeing this scene, he felt very calm. It was just a little disheveled; he had experienced much worse than this before.

If someone gives up or degenerates because they are enslaved, they are not worthy of being their own opponent.

Now, Qianlong is also at the level of a half-saint.

Suddenly, the person inside the iron cage raised their head, revealing a tired eye, and looked sharply at Xu Changqing in the seat with a surprised expression.

He sensed an extremely familiar yet strange aura; it was a contradictory feeling.

His physique and talent were amazing; even if Xu Changqing concealed his aura, he could still sense it.

However, he did not speak, but only glanced at Xu Changqing a few times before lowering his head again.

At this moment, he was filled with mixed feelings. His old enemy had reappeared, but he no longer harbored the hatred he once had. All he felt was the joy and dismay of seeing his old friend.

Having traveled through the starry sky for many years, he was captured and brought here. Every day, he was either having his blood drawn or being tortured like a prodigy. He had become numb.

He no longer harbored any hostility towards Xu Changqing. On the day he was defeated, all his hatred vanished, leaving only a questioning of life.

Chapter 17 The First Person of the Eternal Kingdom

"Next up, please welcome our challenger, Lin Qianyu!" The referee's voice echoed throughout the arena.

As soon as the words were spoken, the crowd froze for a moment, then erupted into a raucous cheer, which, like a tsunami, filled the entire arena.

"It's Lin Qianyu. She went into seclusion for a hundred years in Sendai. When she came out of seclusion again, she had already reached the level of a half-saint. No one in the younger generation of the Eternal Starfield is her match."

"To see her even once would be worth dying for, after all, she is the most beautiful woman in the Eternal Kingdom."

"Lin Qianyu fell into the secret realm of a great emperor when she was young, received the baptism of the strongest precious liquid, and obtained the great emperor's inheritance. I don't know if it's true or not."

Upon hearing the name, the crowd erupted in cheers, with countless people displaying expressions of fervent admiration.

Xu Changqing remained completely calm. In the Eternal Star Domain, there have been two Great Emperors: one was an unknown Great Emperor, and the other was the Dao Yan Great Emperor.

It's a pity that Dao Yi wasn't a strong figure of his time; otherwise, this life would have been quite interesting.

Xu Changqing felt a little regretful that he couldn't spend his life with many of the emperor's sons, but spending his life with the Ruthless Great Emperor was not bad either.

"Zheng!"

A soft chime rang out, and the clear blue sky instantly darkened. Then, a beam of light ripped through the sky, parting the clouds. Lightning crackled, stars fell, and all sorts of terrifying phenomena unfolded.

A figure dressed in a black robe appeared below the clouds, standing silently in mid-air, the howling wind causing her robe to flutter loudly.

This is an exquisitely beautiful woman.

Her long black hair was tied into a ponytail, reaching her waist.

Her exquisitely beautiful face was free of any makeup, her delicate skin was fair and smooth like a peeled egg, and her large, bright eyes seemed to hold the essence of a clear spring.

Her slender figure, with a prominent bust and shapely hips, was covered by a black robe that extended down to her ankles, revealing a pair of delicate, pink feet.

Most strikingly, she held a long knife in her delicate hand, a knife much longer than herself.

It was a Miao sword, but it was a full 1.8 meters long, taller than her by a head.

Just by standing in mid-air, everyone present could feel a sharp, piercing blade intent that stung their skin and gleamed with a cold light.

“It’s her.” The man sitting next to Xu Changqing murmured softly, his tone revealing helplessness and bitterness.

click!

Inside the arena, several soldiers opened the cage and released Qianlong.

Qianlong's messy black hair was draped over his chest, and his breathing was a little rapid. He lowered his head and silently walked to the center of the arena.

Lin Qianyu looked calmly at Qianlong, her delicate face expressionless. Her ponytail swayed gently behind her as she stepped down into the air.

With each step taken, the void rippled like blue waves on a calm surface of water.

“You’re radiating an aura of despair,” Lin Qianyu asked, standing about five meters away from Qianlong.

Her voice was beautiful, with a subtle magnetism; it wasn't the delicate kind, but rather the kind that sounded like a queen.

Qianlong neither shook his head nor nodded; he stood motionless, as if dead.
