327: Chapter 327 Remnant Treasure of the Heavenly Dao
Dongfang Lin stared with wide eyes; under the starlight palm, he had no power to resist and turned into ashes inch by inch.
"Hiss!" Seeing this, the surrounding army of Cultivators all gasped in unison.
"An... an Immortal died just like that?!"
"Did that palm come from an Immortal Emperor? By the way, what Realm is an Immortal Emperor?"
"Unbelievable, to think there are still such powerful Cultivators in the world!"
"Whoosh!" Seeing this, Lin Bei and Kunkun retreated even faster, quickly arriving beside the Lord of Sacred Heart Mansion.
"Senior, what is going on?" Lin Bei looked at the starlight palm. "Didn't you say it was impossible for an Immortal Emperor to come to the Ancient Desolate Continent?"
"Exactly, exactly!" Kunkun kept patting its chest with its wings. "You scared this bird to death! Old man, are you reliable or not?"
The Lord of Sacred Heart Mansion stared at the starlight palm, his expression solemn. "I didn't expect this Immortal Emperor to have such means!"
"If I am not mistaken, the Materials for that jade talisman just now were taken from a Heavenly Dao Remnant Treasure!"
"Heavenly Dao Remnant Treasure?" Lin Bei turned his head in confusion. "Senior, what is its background?"
"A Heavenly Dao Remnant Treasure is a strange treasure that flowed out from a mysterious place; it has the ability to break through the rules of Heaven and Earth!" the Lord of Sacred Heart Mansion explained.
"It is precisely by relying on this item that the Immortal Emperor was able to manifest a portion of his power to appear in the Ancient Desolate Continent!"
After the starlight palm casually slapped Dongfang Lin to death, it arrived before Dongfang Meng. "Do you know you were wrong?"
Facing the majesty of the Immortal Emperor, even as his own son, Dongfang Meng could not help but tremble. "Father Emperor, this child knows he was wrong! This child knows he was wrong!"
"Father Emperor! You may punish me as you wish after we return, but can you take us back to the Immortal Realm now?"
He did not know how long this palm before him could exist, so he could only muster the courage to say this, fearing that the sudden hope would be shattered once again.
"Return?" A cold snort came from within the starlight palm. "When did my Dongfang family produce a piece of trash like you? You only know how to run after suffering a loss?"
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Meng flushed, then immediately reacted, revealing an excited expression.
"Father Emperor! Are you going to avenge me?" He immediately reached out and pointed at Lin Bei. "Father Emperor! It is him! The Lord of the Heavenly Court! Everything that has happened to this child is caused by him!"
"The Lord of the Heavenly Court?" The voice within the starlight palm was slightly surprised. "To think there is someone in the Ancient Desolate Continent who is not afraid of death and dares to establish a Heavenly Court?"
Hearing this, Dongfang Meng immediately felt extremely aggrieved. "Father Emperor, you are right, he is truly not afraid of death! No, I should say he is truly afraid of not dying!"
"From the moment I met him, I witnessed him die seven or eight times with my own eyes, but each time he did not really die, and he became stronger the more he died..."
"Stronger the more he dies? Heh!" The starlight palm gave a contemptuous laugh. "It seems this person has mastered a relatively Advanced Rebirth Cultivation Technique, but! Before this Emperor, hmph!"
Before the words faded, the palm silently traversed space and appeared not far from Lin Bei.
As an Immortal Emperor, he naturally disdained sneak attacks, so he hovered in the air, facing the group of Heavenly Court Cultivators.
Although it was merely a hand, it felt like billions of mountains, pressing down so hard that everyone could barely breathe.
"This Emperor is the Immortal Emperor of the Immortal Realm, Dongfang Jiba! I will give you three breaths of time to prepare!"
"After three breaths, the Lord of the Heavenly Court shall die, and the Heavenly Court shall be destroyed!"
"The Lord of the Heavenly Court shall die! The Heavenly Court shall be destroyed!" These eight words resonated like thunder in the ears of every Cultivator.
If any Cultivator from the Ancient Desolate Continent had said these words, they would only have sneered at it.
But now, the person saying these words was an Immortal Emperor!
Although it was only a hand of an Immortal Emperor, it was still an existence capable of turning the Immortal Dongfang Lin into ashes with a wave.
"Heavens! Is the Heavenly Court going to be destroyed just like that?"
"You... do you think the former Heavenly Court might have also been, like now, by the Immortal Realm..."
"Shh! Silence, this kind of thing is not something we can discuss!"
On the entire battlefield, only one person behaved most strangely.
Within the Yinming Army, Long Jiba desperately retracted his head into his abdomen, almost curling himself into a ball.
"Damn it! With so many names in the world, why did this idiot Immortal Emperor have to have this name?"
"He shouldn't have the ability to know other people's names out of thin air, right? Can't see me, can't see me..."
While some Cultivators were discussing it, more Ancient Desolate Alliance Cultivators had anxious expressions and rushed toward the location of the young Prodigies of the Heavenly Court.
The hundred or so young Prodigies of the Heavenly Court watched them approach and naturally understood why they were coming.
At this moment, all the Prodigies made the same choice.
Hundreds of Saint Prodigies raised their hands in unison, erecting a barrier to prevent their own Seniors from approaching.
"Old Ancestor! No need to persuade me! As a member of the Heavenly Court, Zheng'er cannot withdraw at a time like this!"
"Father, this child has decided to live and die with the Heavenly Court!"
"Grandfather, please forgive this unfilial grandson, I cannot help you guard the Jiuli Imperial Dynasty anymore!"
The representatives of the major forces of the Ancient Desolate Continent stood before the barrier, watching the choices their children had made, and could only shake their heads and sigh.
"Enough! The sentimentality should end!" The starlight palm seemed devoid of emotion; facing such a scene, it remained completely unmoved.
"Boom!" Heaven and Earth shook violently. In an instant, the palm grew millions of times larger, slowly pressing down toward where Lin Bei was, encompassing the hundreds of Heavenly Court Cultivators behind him as well.
Lin Bei's body turned cold, his hair stood on end, and a crisis he had never felt before descended suddenly.
The giant hand was like a curtain of the sky, pressing down with specks of starlight; the space and time below were all confined, leaving no way to escape.
Beside him, the Fire Bird's feathers all stood up, resembling a flaming hedgehog, which looked quite comical.
Behind, Niu Ren, Feng Xiaoyao, Xia Mang, and other Heavenly Court Cultivators were in an even worse state.
Most of them were pale, with mouthfuls of blood constantly gushing out, but they were still gritting their teeth and persisting, unwilling to yield under this Heavenly Might.
"Senior, please take the people of the Heavenly Court and retreat first, I will delay it for a moment!"
Lin Bei took a deep breath and looked at the Lord of Sacred Heart Mansion. "I think this starlight palm should not be able to maintain itself for long!"
"Are you crazy, kid?" The Lord of Sacred Heart Mansion heard this, his eyes widening even more than Niu Ren's.
"Although this palm only has a small amount of the Immortal Emperor's power, it still possesses the strength of a Peak Immortal King; even a hundred of you would find it hard to block it for half a breath!"
"That's right, Boss!" Kunkun also hurriedly advised. "This is simply a mantis trying to block a pig!"
Lin Bei rolled his eyes at it. "That's called a mantis trying to block a chariot!"
"About the same..." The Fire Bird scratched its head. "Anyway, you'll die miserably!"
Lin Bei ignored it and turned to look at the Lord of Sacred Heart Mansion, a strange light in his eyes.
"Senior, you can see the strength of this palm at a glance, could it be that you can counter it?"
The Lord of Sacred Heart Mansion smiled slightly. "Without undoing the Seal, I cannot block it completely; I estimate I can at most block the palm and four of its fingers!"
"Holy monkey!" Kunkun was stunned. "Old man, you... you are actually this powerful?!"
"No... no, you mean this is even without you undoing the Seal?!"
Lin Bei reached out and pushed it aside. "If Senior were to undo the Seal, what would be the consequences?"
"It's hard to say..." The Lord of Sacred Heart Mansion shook his head gently. "It might be that nothing happens, or it might cause the Great Destruction to arrive even earlier!"
