533 Tremors
In the cosmos, Grand Emperor Igneous was foraging for new substances.
Suddenly, terrifying fluctuations came from the cosmos. Even from afar, one could sense how intense these fluctuations were. It was clearly a battle between Grand Emperors.
"Grand Emperors are fighting? There's such a strong fluctuation. Which two Grand Emperors are fighting?"
Grand Emperor Igneous was a little surprised. Although there would be Grand Emperors participating in the third wave of the Big Bang, and there were quite a number of them this time, very few Grand Emperors would really fight it out.
After all, it was too difficult to defeat a Grand Emperor one-on-one, let alone kill them.
Grand Emperor Igneous did not pay much attention to it. What he cared about was new substances. As long as he could find new substances, preferably ones with Chaotic energy, he could increase his strength again.
Unfortunately, Lin Feng had obtained that giant flower containing Chaotic energy. He had even become a stepping stone to Lin Feng when ascending to the position of Grand Emperor.
However, Grand Emperor Igneous did not care too much about such things either. He was a Grand Emperor, and his life was infinite. It was just a minor setback for a time. If Lin Feng had the combat power of a Grand Emperor, he was a Grand Emperor, and was qualified to obtain the giant flower.
As for himself, he would keep searching. He would find something eventually.
Grand Emperor Igneous was rather open-minded. He did not expect that his matter would lead to great disaster.
Buzz.
Suddenly, there was a wail in the cosmos. The surrounding Laws were trembling, and even manifested.
"What's going on?"
Grand Emperor Igneous frowned. Then, after checking carefully, his heart skipped a beat.
The Law were wailing. A Grand Emperor had fallen!
"A Grand Emperor has fallen? Which Grand Emperor has fallen?"
The fall of a Grand Emperor was earth-shattering. Even the Laws would wail, and the cosmos would tremble. After so many years, very few Grand Emperors had fallen in the entire universe.
Although the competition for the Big Bang would be intense, and there was a possibility that even Grand Emperors and Divine Kings would fall, this was only the third wave of the Big Bang. Not many Grand Emperors would participate in the first place. How could a Grand Emperor already have fallen?
Although Grand Emperor Igneous was very shocked, he was also very confused. Which Grand Emperor had actually fallen? The battle must have been very intense. However, he was already ten light-years deep. The fluctuations were already very weak by the time they transmitted over.
"Looks like I have to be careful in the future. A Grand Emperor actually died as early as during the third wave of the Big Bang."
Grand Emperor Igneous became more vigilant and continued to search for new substances.
…
The fall of a Grand Emperor, the wailing of Laws, and the shaking of the cosmos sent fluctuations far and wide.
Those cultivators who went deep into the cosmic tide, or those who were planning to enter the cosmic tide, were all stunned and deeply shaken.
A Grand Emperor had fallen. This had happened during the Big Bang before, when even Divine Kings might fall, let alone a Grand Emperor. However, this was only the third wave of the Big Bang, and a Grand Emperor had already fallen. This was not a good sign.
"Which Grand Emperor is it?"
Countless cultivators were inquiring about it. The death of a Grand Emperor had caused a huge shock. Some timid cultivators were even considering retreating in advance.
At this moment, Betas, Venerable Starfall, and the Dark Venerable all looked at each other. They had personally witnessed the death of a Grand Emperor. It was originally just a guess, but it turned out to be the truth.
"Grand Emperor Guxi has fallen, and he was killed by Grand Emperor of Annihilation!"
"If I'm not wrong, what the Grand Emperor of Annihilation used was some kind of spatial combat body at the end. He used Spatial Sunder to sever Grand Emperor Guxi's combat body into countless pieces, then used the annihilative power of the Greater Annihilative Combat Body to annihilate it directly."
"The Tidal Combat Body, the Greater Annihilative Combat Body, and a spatial combat body in the end… Just how many combat bodies has the Grand Emperor of Annihilation cultivated? How many Laws has he comprehended?"
"It's a spatial combat body, and it's the Void Traversal Combat Body of the Divine Palace of Bemond! With the Void Traversal Combat Body and the Law of Space at the advanced planetary level, the Grand Emperor of Annihilation is already invincible. As long as space can't be completely sealed, even a Grand Emperor stronger than the Grand Emperor of Annihilation can't do anything to the Grand Emperor of Annihilation."
"This is Grand Emperor of Annihilation's true trump card…"
The three Quasi-emperors looked at each other, their hearts in turmoil. They could not calm down for a long time. Previously, when the Grand Emperor of Annihilation was only a Quasi-emperor, they had thought that they had already seen everything there was to Lin Feng. They did not expect that once Lin Feng underwent metamorphosis, he would immediately become on par with Grand Emperors.
After Lin Feng became the Grand Emperor of Annihilation, they thought that they had seen through Lin Feng again. However, they did not expect Lin Feng to use three combat bodies now, one of which was a spatial combat body. Moreover, he had joined forces with Grand Emperor Scorpius to kill Grand Emperor Guxi!
That was a dignified Grand Emperor, yet he was actually killed by Lin Feng, who had just obtained the combat power of a Grand Emperor. From a perspective of cultivation level, Lin Feng was only a Venerable. A Venerable had killed a Grand Emperor.
It was probably one of a kind, even in the universe.
From the beginning to the end, they had never seen through Lin Feng. It was as if Lin Feng would give them a "surprise" at any moment.
"Are we still going to participate in the third wave of the Big Bang?"
Betas developed the vague intention to quit. Strangely enough, the three of them became acquainted with each other after their fight, and had actually temporarily joined forces as they prepared to search for new substances in the third wave of the Big Bang.
But now, they saw Lin Feng join forces with Grand Emperor Scorpius to fight a great battle with Grand Emperor Guxi, and even kill him in the end.
With the death of a Grand Emperor, the three of them were also greatly shocked. They were really spooked.
"Forget it, the third wave of the Big Bang no longer our battlefield, let alone the fourth and fifth waves. I quit!"
Venerable Starfall was the first to express his intention of quitting. He did not want to fight for new substances anymore. The circumstances seemed to be very different from what he had imagined.
Betas also shook his head and said, "I'm quitting too. Even a Grand Emperor has fallen. I don't think I'm stronger than a Grand Emperor. I don't want to die now."
Although Betas was a behemoth, it was very prudent. It was precisely because of its prudence that it could survive until now, and was far stronger than other behemoths.
Only the Dark Venerable was left. He was silent for a long time. In the end, he turned around and left without saying anything.
After the three Quasi-emperors left, many other cultivators below the level of Grand Emperors also left. The death of a Grand Emperor had caused a huge shock to them. No matter how tempting and miraculous new substances might be, they did not want to take the risk anymore.
"The Grand Emperor of Annihilation has three combat bodies and three advanced Laws. How incredible! However, we have to be careful of Grand Emperor Igneous. He is close with Grand Emperor Guxi."
"I'll naturally be careful about Grand Emperor Igneous. However, how close can he be with Grand Emperor Guxi? Can he avenge Grand Emperor Guxi?"
A playful smile appeared on Lin Feng's lips. All those who could cultivate to the realm of Grand Emperors had experienced countless hardships and dangers. Who would put themselves in danger unless absolutely necessary?
Only Grand Emperor Guxi had always been known for his fiery temper. In the past, he had offended many Grand Emperors, yet he was still alive and kicking.
However, one would have to pay the price for some things eventually.
Today, Grand Emperor Guxi had died because of his fiery temper. If not for that fiery temper, how could Lin Feng have formed a grudge with Grand Emperor Guxi? How could Grand Emperor Guxi meet with such a terrible end?
It was not that retribution would not come, but that its time had yet to arrive! Grand Emperor Guxi deserved what he got today. The karma he invoked in the past was now repaid.
