Chapter 832: Sacrificial Tower
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
"This is a talisman." Night emperor flipped his hand and produced two triangular crystal like rocks with complex engravings on them. This was somewhat similar to the jadeite of earth.
"Once you send your spirit imprint in, you'll become its master." Night emperor said. "Only with this…can you enter the tower. Otherwise, you cant even get in."
"These engravings are infused with the space laws and water laws. Wow, how mysterious." Piercing Tiger emperor couldn't help but say as he received the talismans and examined them. Luo Feng sent a thread of spirit energy in and immediately placed his spirit imprint, it fused right into his skin.
The spirit imprint was an imprint of the soul, a mark of life.
Piercing Tiger kept his too.
"Alright, let's go." Night emperor said.
Xiu!
The three warriors from the human camp instantly vanished from the cave and appeared deep underground over a trillion km away.
...
Deep underground.
Luo Feng could feel the space warp, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared within a dark cave underground.
"This is…" Luo Feng looked at the huge object stuck in the ground before them. As the mud had covered part of it, he could only see a few hundred meters ahead. The huge construct had a round entrance that was completely shut. Even after trillions of years, it was still perfectly undamaged.
"Babata, scan it." Luo Feng said.
"I cannot detect it, and am only picking up the mud and stones within a 20km area."
"Ah? Even the mini scanner cannot detect it?" Luo Feng was shocked. He had long heard that the towers were undetectable, and even a knight's god energy couldn't detect it. However only after trying did he fully feel its power.
"It's right before me and yet my god energy cannot detect it." Piercing Tiger's voice was booming as it resounded about. "My god energy can only pick up the mud and rocks around, yet I can see it right before me."
"This is the mysterious Sacrificial tower."
Night emperor smiled, "Without being in front of it, even a knight cannot find it. This tower is the survival base the indigenous people used to flee in. Even though it is an important fleeing tool and yet it's so mysterious."
"Corpse!"
Luo Feng saw a corpse in the mud ahead. It was about 2.6 m tall, completely jade like, with 6 arms, bald and giving off terrifying energy. This was the energy of an undying, which was able to withstand trillions of years without any decay…naturally this was an undying.
"Quite some power, this undying energy has some pretty powerful god energy, he should be an emperor." Piercing Tiger walked over and glanced at it.
"It is an emperor." Night emperor looked at the body and smiled. "The tower was managed by six emperors when they were fleeing, they all had one talisman each."
"From the looks of it, he didn't suffer any pain when he died."
Luo Feng carefully examined the body too.
This body had a sense of anxiety, his eyes were wide open, yet he just died like that. It was almost like he experienced a very sudden death.
"He died very quickly. An emperor is very hard to kill, yet when he died, his armor was completely undamaged. It's obvious there wasn't even a battle." Night emperor said. "I think…a large group of knights from the four pinnacle races used their soul attacks and swept the entire main continent when they were forging the battlefield. Hence, all the life on the main continent…was completely annihilated, the six emperors were killed instantly too."
Luo Feng nodded.
...
Night emperor, Piercing Tiger and Luo feng stood outside the entrance.
"We'll wait patiently for the enemy to come." Night emperor said. "They should be here soon."
"Hm."
Luo Feng and Piercing Tiger sat crossed legged there and waited.
After awhile!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Three figure appeared.
"Night emperor, you sure got here fast." An ear piercing voice resounded. A 3 m tall completely black and gold scaled snake like creature with small eyes appeared. It's silver white lips opened as it let out an ear piercing laughter. "Cackle…These are the two you've got to help you?"
"This brute must be Piercing Tiger emperor."
"Hm, silver armor and wings…never seen before." It glanced at Luo Feng.
"Let me introduce you."
Night emperor's gaze landed on the three warriors from the enemy camp, "I am…Night emperor!"
"I am Piercing Tiger emperor." The powerful booming voice resounded from Piercing Tiger.
"I don't have an emperor title yet, I'm called Yang." Luo Feng looked at the three enemies.
There were three of them…
Luo Feng instantly recognized, that two of them were from the Qi Chang race, and another was from the renowned Gold Cang emperor of Yan ji main continent. He was well known, Luo Feng knew much about it. The other two however…Luo Feng didn't know anything, as he hadn't spent a lot of time on the main continent afterall.
Among the two Qi Chang warriors, one was close to 3m tall and the other was 1.6m.
"We've already introduced ourselves. Ice Blade, what about your side?" Night emperor roared.
"I'm called Ice Blade." The 3m tall Qi Chang warrior laughed weirdly.
"Purple Clock emperor." The 1.6m tall Qi Chang emperor, who seemed skinny spoke. But its voice was even more piercing.
"Gold Cang emperor." This huge beast, which was as tall as Piercing Tiger and had thunder engravings on his face. He stood there and glowed with electricity, his energy…pressured against the human camp. Piercing Tiger however gave off his own terrifying energy, the space seemed to almost fall apart.
There were two camps.
One was the humans, and the other the automaton. Naturally on their side…none of them were automaton race.
"Now that we have introduced each other..." Ice Blade said, "Let's go."
"Go." Night said too.
Gold Cang went along with Purple Clock and Ice Blade, while Luo Feng and Piercing Tiger went along with Night Emperor.
They all headed towards the entrance. It had been shut for a long time, however as Ice blade touched it, the seemingly solid and sturdy material became like a liquid and flowed, as Ice Blade walked in. Night emperor did the same. As for Luo Feng and the others, as this was the first time they entered, they were extremely cautious.
"How strange."
As Luo Feng touched it, the entrance door automatically flowed away, making him feel as though he was passing through water.
...
The six emperor level strength warriors stood within the huge 1km wide pathway, with the entrance behind them.
"Getting the treasure won't be easy."
Luo Feng looked at the three enemies. "That Ice Blade is a high emperor, his threat level isn't that huge. Gold Cang however is a well renowned warrior of the main continent…he should have the emperor limit strength."
"Yang, Night, this is going to be troublesome." Piercing Tiger communicated, "I didn't expect to meet Gold Cang here."
"Hmph." Night looked at Luo Feng and Piercing Tiger, saying, "That Ice Blade is weaker than me, he knew that without getting someone stronger, he wouldn't be able to get the treasure. According to the information I gathered, that Purple Clock…should be pinnacle emperor. And all of you already know Gold Cang, he is at Emperor limit."
"Emperor limit!"
The three of them felt stressed.
An emperor was sorted according to his strength, normally from low, high and pinnacle!
A low emperor's body normally reached around 10,000 sector lord's strength.
A high emperor reached around 30,000 sector lord's strength.
A pinnacle emperor however reached around 100,000 times the strength.
And 100,000 sector lord's strength…it was a human emperor's highest form. Without a miracle, it was impossible to breakthrough.
However, amongst the emperors, there were those with body amplification techniques, like the Golden horned beast had Deities of the world and Beast god transformation along with Strengthen, allowing its strength to amplify 20 times! True Yan had acquired the God general inheritance before. Naturally there were others that would have received them or had their own amplification techniques.
Body amplification was very hard!
Beast god transformation's first level was only two times.
Deities of the world was very powerful, it was a combination of the beast' swallow technique to amplify. Luo Feng's earth body…he only had the Beast god amplification. Hence he could only amplify its strength by very little,
It was extremely rare to be able to amplify even three to five times.
As for the god inheritance…
They were too rare!
Even knights were fighting for these slots. The Hong Alliance's large amount of warriors were all fighting for them too. To get one usually meant spending tens of billions of mixed elements and owing many favors. It wasn't something normal emperors could afford.
...
Hence, emperors were normally sorted into low, high and pinnacle.
Only very few had body amplification techniques and soul amplification techniques, or they created their own pinnacle techniques or had some miraculous encounters, allowing them to unleash emperor limit strength.
Above that!
With everything added together, only then can an emperor have the strength of a normal knight, like True Yan.
And Gold Cang belonged to that category!
"Emperor limit is just one level above us. Even though we are weaker, the difference isn't too huge." Night emperor said.
"Hm, leave Gold Cang to me." Piercing Tiger's eyes gleamed with fighting spirit.
Luo Feng looked at him.
Piercing Tiger was renowned for his strength and intrepid powers, he should be able to withstand Gold Cang.
"Actually we have an advantage within this tower, that's Yang." Night looked about. The circular pathway was huge, but it had countless ancient statues about that gave off law energies, "This tower is very mysterious. Its entire structure has god energy everywhere, almost like the space is on lockdown within! This is also the reason I cannot simply teleport into the tower."
Teleportation was very powerful.
One could teleport straight into a ship from outside. If the Sacrificial tower was made from normal material, Night emperor could teleport into the center easily.
"With the space lockdown, Yang's speed and dodging will become our greatest advantage. Plus Piercing Tiger and I are both emperor pinnacle. Even though that Gold Cang is emperor limit…we aren't too different in levels." Night said.
As they were discussing secretly.
The other group was doing the same.
After a few seconds.
"Let's enter the core region." Ice Blade said.
"Let's go." Night nodded.
