269: Chapter 269 Treasure Land
"What do you mean? You don't want to hand over my Tian'er?" The Zerg Empress's voice couldn't help but grow tense.
Lin Bei smiled and shook his head. "I have a question I'd like you to clear up first!"
"Speak!" Although she was very reluctant, the Zerg Empress could only grit her teeth and open her mouth.
"As far as I know, the Nine Emperor Clans have a total of twelve Great Emperors. Aside from the nine over there pinning down the giant black tiger, there should be three more. Why are there only two of you here?"
Wei Zhentian had been watching from the sidelines, thinking about how to snatch the heavenly dream divine fruit, but upon hearing this, his whole body involuntarily trembled, and deep fear surfaced in his eyes.
The Zerg Empress was no better than him; she too fell into a memory, her pupils contracting sharply.
"Hmm?" Lin Bei's brow furrowed, seeing that this matter was not simple. "Speak! What happened?"
A sharp shout brought the two Great Emperors back to their senses.
The two looked at each other, the fear in their eyes still impossible to dispel.
After a few breaths, the Zerg Empress stabilized her emotions and looked at Lin Bei.
"The other Great Emperor of the Thunder Spirit Clan, Lei Weibing, is dead!"
"Dead? How did he die?" Lin Bei was somewhat surprised.
"Ten years ago! Not long after we arrived at the Dream Sea, everyone was still gathered together searching for the heavenly dream divine fruit..."
"One day, we found a valley!" Speaking to this point, the Zerg Empress's voice became somewhat strained. "A valley that looked completely ordinary!"
"Such valleys are countless within the Mist Sea, so none of us paid it any mind. The Thunder Spirit Clan's Great Emperor, Lei Weibing, was the first to enter to investigate, and as a result..."
The Zerg Empress couldn't help but swallow hard. "As a result, he turned into flying ash right before our eyes, bit by bit! No matter what methods we used, we couldn't save him!"
"The most terrifying thing was that from beginning to end, we never even discovered what kind of power caused his death..."
"There is actually such a treasure land?" After listening, Lin Bei couldn't help but cry out in wonder.
"Treasure land?" The Zerg Empress and Wei Zhentian were stunned, and even their fear dissipated quite a bit.
"But it's a pity that that Lei Weibing guy died..."
"Of course it's a pity, that was a Great Emperor!" Wei Zhentian shook his head with regret.
"Uh," a bashful expression appeared on Lin Bei's face, "I didn't mean it that way. What I find a pity is those one million yinming stones..."
After speaking, before the two Great Emperors could react, nine Phantom Clones directly rushed toward them.
"You go too far!" Wei Zhentian let out an angry roar, gripping his broken Emperor Weapon to launch an attack.
Unfortunately, the outcome was already decided!
The nine Phantom Clones each held an Emperor Weapon, and on top of that, Lin Bei's true body would use the Brick to launch sneak attacks from time to time.
In just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, several parts had already been dismantled from Wei Zhentian's body, and the Zerg Empress in her spider form had three of her spider legs broken.
"Good! Well hit! Break all eight legs of this Old Witch and see if she still dares to be so arrogant!" In the field, the most excited one was none other than Xiong Ermao.
"Big brother, I think following this big brother has a future! How about we..."
Xiong Damao was silent for a moment and slightly shook his head. "It's not right. His strength is indeed very high, and he has many strange methods, but going against the Nine Emperor Clans... I'm afraid it still won't end well!"
"Big brother, are the Nine Emperor Clans really that powerful?" Xiong Ermao scratched his head.
"Before, I also thought they were nothing special!" Xiong Damao's expression was solemn. "But I didn't expect them to actually possess such a powerful Formation!"
"I only took one look from afar, and my heart and soul trembled. I almost couldn't help but prostrate myself in worship..."
"Ah?" Xiong Ermao's large eyes widened. "That powerful? Then... then let's watch a bit longer..."
*Thud! Thud!* At this time, two muffled groans were heard as the Zerg Empress and Wei Zhentian finally fainted under the moral brick.
"These two guys are Great Emperors; it seems a bit unsafe to put them directly into the ten thousand demon tower?" After a bit of consideration, Lin Bei took out the hundred refinements immortal furnace.
Half an hour later, two immortal gold ropes burst out of the furnace!
"Not bad!" Taking the ropes, Lin Bei was quite satisfied. "Even someone in the Late Stage of the Great Emperor realm would probably find it hard to easily break free once bound!"
After tying up the two on the ground like dead dogs and throwing them into the ten thousand demon tower, he turned to look at the Xiong brothers. "What do you two plan to do?"
Xiong Damao quickly pulled Xiong Ermao back a step. "Lin... Fellow Daoist Lin, we two brothers love peace and have always lived without conflict with the world. We plan to find a new place to live in seclusion and Cultivate..."
"Oh?" Lin Bei gave him a half-smile. "Very well. In that case, I won't see you off!"
"No need to see us off, no need..." Xiong Damao pulled Xiong Ermao and turned to run.
"What's the deal? I don't eat people!" Lin Bei couldn't help but mutter in a low voice. "Though bear paws are something to consider..."
Ten thousand feet away, Xiong Damao's nearly hundred-foot-tall frame stumbled and almost fell headlong. His speed increased several-fold again, and he vanished over the horizon in an instant.
"Don't they say people eat bear hearts and leopard gall to be brave? Why are these two bears so cowardly?" Lin Bei shook his head and sighed.
The vortex caused by the heavenly dream divine tree continued, and the thick mist had already dissipated by nearly fifty percent.
He took one last look at the center of the vortex, and with a movement of his body, he disappeared from where he stood.
Several thousand miles away, the angry roars of the giant black tiger hadn't stopped for a moment.
It couldn't understand no matter how it tried, how these nine ants around it could possess such a powerful Formation.
According to its judgment, even in that dark world where it had previously been, those terrifying lunatics probably only had a few who could create this kind of Formation.
The nine Great Emperors of the Nine Emperor Clans were also in a difficult position now. They never expected the black tiger before them to be even more powerful than imagined. Even using this Formation, they could only barely suppress it and found it difficult to kill.
The commotion coming from the direction of the heavenly dream divine tree, as well as the vortex affecting the entire Dream Sea, made them even more anxious.
However, if they withdrew the Formation now to go and investigate, the black tiger before them would certainly take the opportunity to counterattack.
They couldn't forget the scene from before when this black tiger had swallowed an Emperor-level Vicious Beast in one bite.
"Everyone! What should we do? It's not a solution to keep going like this!" The Dwarf Race Great Emperor, Wu Dalang, looked at the other eight people with gritted teeth.
"In my opinion, if we withdraw the Formation instantly and retreat at the same time, this beast might not have time to move against us!" The Clan Chief of the Saiyan Race spoke in a deep voice.
"No!" The Zerg God-Devouring Insect Great Emperor immediately objected. "It's too dangerous! This Vicious Beast is capable of killing us instantly. Without the Formation, we have no power to resist at all!"
"Correct! I think we should hold on for a while longer. Perhaps this Vicious Beast has already been mostly worn down by us!" The Mechanical Race Great Emperor, Qin Tianzhu, spoke in agreement.
"Hmph!" The Holy Light Clan Great Emperor, Di Jia, gave a cold snort. "Don't think we don't know what you two are thinking!"
"Right now, only your two clans still have Great Emperors over by the heavenly dream divine tree. If the divine tree undergoes a change, naturally your two clans will have a greater chance of obtaining the heavenly dream divine fruit!"
"Heh... judging a gentleman's heart with a petty person's mind!" The God-Devouring Insect Great Emperor spoke with a cold laugh.
"This Emperor actually thinks Brother Holy Light has a point!" The Thunder Spirit Clan Great Emperor, Lei Dajun, had an expression that looked completely harmless.
"If Fellow Daoists Wei Zhentian and the Zerg Empress obtain the heavenly dream divine fruit, would they be willing to bring it out and share it equally with us?"
"What a joke!" The God-Devouring Insect Great Emperor glanced at him sideways. "A divine object like the heavenly dream divine fruit is extraordinary even to get one. Share it equally? How would you even divide it?"
"Then there's nothing more to say! Withdraw the Formation! Then let everyone's fate be left to heaven!" Lei Dajun looked at the other Great Emperors.
"Fine! Then withdraw the Formation!"
"I agree..."
...
Soon, except for the two Great Emperors from the Zerg and Mechanical Race, the other seven reached an agreement.
"Good! Then in three breaths, we will withdraw the Formation simultaneously!"
Just as the Dwarf Race Great Emperor finished speaking, suddenly, two bound figures landed beside them.
