532: The Celestial Emperors joined forces to defeat them one by one!
Immediately after, Nine Heavens Immortal Emperor gave a cold snort.
"I think you're just making things up. A mere Cultivator in the Immortal Lord Realm dares to casually deduce the Karma of an Eerie Immortal Emperor?"
Nine Heavens Immortal Emperor had not participated in the last Three-Party Conference, so he did not know about Su Ming deducing the Eerie Immortal Emperor's affairs.
He assumed the previous eerie invasion had been discovered in advance by Jian Lingtian alone.
Consequently, Nine Heavens Immortal Emperor's words were ignored by everyone.
Even Su Ming paid him no mind, looking instead at the others.
"I have a special method of deduction that allows me to glimpse a corner of the future."
"As for whether you believe it or not, I can provide some details."
He paused, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.
"The location of that great war fifty years from now will still be Immortal Sword Manor."
Upon hearing this, Jian Lingtian's pupils constricted.
"Five Eerie Immortal Emperors from within the domain will appear first, coordinating with five Eerie Immortal Emperors from outside the domain to breach Immortal Sword Manor from both inside and out."
"Subsequently, the flames of war will spread across the entire Vast Immortal Domain."
"Ultimately, all six Immortal Emperors will die in battle, and the entire Vast Immortal Domain will fall."
The hall fell into a deathly silence.
Jian Lingtian's face turned ashen.
"You say the battlefield is at Immortal Sword Manor?"
"Correct."
Su Ming nodded.
"Moreover, those five Eerie Immortal Emperors within the domain know the layout of Immortal Sword Manor like the back of their hands; they have clearly infiltrated it long ago."
"Absurd!"
Jian Lingtian suddenly slammed the table and stood up.
"Immortal Sword Manor has a Legacy spanning hundreds of thousands of years. How could it be infiltrated by the eerie?"
If it were said that the Eerie Clan invaded the Vast Immortal Domain through Immortal Sword Manor, he might believe it.
But to say that Immortal Sword Manor had been infiltrated by the Eerie Clan—he wouldn't believe it even if it killed him.
Immortal Sword Manor didn't have many people to begin with, and he had raised every one of these Disciples since they were children.
In all the world, no one knew these people of Immortal Sword Manor better than he did.
Su Ming looked at him calmly.
"Senior Lingtian, you've misunderstood. The infiltration I'm referring to isn't by people inside Immortal Sword Manor, but by the Human Race within the Vast Immortal Domain."
Jian Lingtian was stunned for a moment, and the anger on his face gradually faded.
"In that case, it is indeed very possible."
In Jian Lingtian's view, only such a possibility could occur.
Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor spoke up.
"Everyone, now is not the time to argue over truth or falsehood."
"It is better to believe it might be true than to dismiss it."
"If what Young Friend Su says is true and we don't prepare now, fifty years from now will be a total catastrophe."
Immortal Emperor Cangqiong nodded.
"Saint Heaven is right."
"However, Young Friend Su, since you can deduce these things, can you deduce the identities of those five Eerie Immortal Emperors?"
Su Ming shook his head.
"Deduction has its limits. I can only see the results; I cannot see all the details clearly."
"However, we can analyze based on existing clues."
With a wave of his hand, a surge of immortal essence condensed into a light screen, upon which a map of the Vast Immortal Domain appeared.
"First, those capable of becoming an Eerie Immortal Emperor must be experts at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level."
"There are only a few known Quasi-Immortal Emperor level eerie beings on the surface of the Vast Immortal Domain."
Several points of light lit up on the screen.
"Secondly, the fact that these five Eerie Immortal Emperors can appear simultaneously fifty years from now suggests they are in contact with each other."
"Finally, they are extremely familiar with Immortal Sword Manor. They are either people from within Immortal Sword Manor or from a power closely related to it."
"Since the former possibility can now be ruled out, the traitor must be from the latter."
Su Ming's gaze fell on several regions on the map.
"Synthesizing these three points, I have three suspected targets."
"First, the Cangmang Dao Palace."
"Second, the Eerie Immortal Dynasty."
"Third, Sky City."
"As for the other two Eerie Immortal Emperors, I am not quite sure for now and need you Seniors to speculate."
The Immortal Emperors' faces turned as dark as water upon hearing this.
Jian Lingtian took a deep breath and then named a place.
"Black Sea."
As Jian Lingtian uttered those two words, the temperature in the hall plummeted.
"If there is any place in the Vast Immortal Domain where an Eerie Immortal Emperor might appear, the Black Sea is undoubtedly the most likely place."
Immortal Emperor Cangqiong paused and scanned the crowd.
"The Black Sea has had unusual movements over the years. I have kept it under surveillance, but have never been able to find the source."
"Looking at it now, an Eerie Immortal Emperor might indeed be hidden there."
At this point, Immortal Emperor Cangqiong's expression darkened.
"The Black Sea is only a million miles from Immortal Sword Manor. If an Eerie Immortal Emperor is indeed lurking there, they could certainly coordinate from within and without."
Su Ming's eyes flickered slightly.
The Black Sea... Just then, a place suddenly surfaced in his mind.
It was an exploration mission he had accepted when he first arrived at the Nine Heavens Immortal Sect.
At that time, the Nine Heavens Immortal Sect had sent people to the Gods Fall Abyss in the Eastern Underworld Sea to investigate the situation.
Su Ming had only scouted the periphery, yet he found the eerie presence there to be no less than any top-tier eerie power.
In some respects, it was even more terrifying than the current Eerie Immortal Dynasty.
He hadn't dared to explore the depths back then because his strength was insufficient.
But thinking about it now... at this thought, Su Ming suddenly spoke.
"Gods Fall Abyss."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at him.
"I have been to the Gods Fall Abyss in the Eastern Underworld Sea."
"It hides strength that is not inferior to the Cangmang Dao Palace or the Eerie Immortal Dynasty."
Jian Lingtian's pupils shrank.
"Gods Fall Abyss?"
Su Ming nodded.
"Furthermore, the Eastern Underworld Sea and the Black Sea echo each other from a distance. If these two places erupt simultaneously, it would be enough to form a pincer movement."
Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor sucked in a cold breath.
"Adding in the three major powers you mentioned earlier, that makes five sources of threat."
"It corresponds exactly to the five Eerie Immortal Emperors within the domain."
The hall was deathly silent.
Nine Heavens Immortal Emperor sneered.
"You make it sound plausible, but on what basis do you conclude that the Gods Fall Abyss has a problem? Just because you've been there?"
"If there really were an Eerie Immortal Emperor there, would you have been able to come out alive?"
Su Ming glanced at him and ignored him.
"Seniors, the issue now isn't whether to believe it, but how to verify it."
"We can send people to investigate the Black Sea and the Gods Fall Abyss. As for those three major powers..."
He paused.
"We need more covert methods, or perhaps you Seniors should go yourselves."
Jian Lingtian said in a heavy voice.
"Inappropriate!"
"This method of yours is inappropriate!"
"Since the other side has been lurking for so long, it shows they are extremely cautious. A forced investigation will only alert the enemy."
"It is better to do the opposite and strike directly at their doors."
Immortal Emperor Cangqiong's eyes lit up.
"This method is feasible."
"Once we go to investigate and word gets out, the Five Great Eerie Immortal Emperors will surely join forces instantly."
"At that time, it won't be so easy for us to eliminate them anymore."
Jian Lingtian and the others nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
However, within the crowd, Nine Heavens Immortal Emperor's expression shifted unpredictably.
Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor then spoke.
"Very well, we will pair up and first deal with the Eerie Immortal Dynasty, Sky City, and the Cangmang Dao Palace."
