Eternal Heavenly Emperor

Chapter 566: Desperate Situation



The Dragon Crown Prince, facing three on one, gradually gained the upper hand, suppressing the three divine artifacts. His combat power was indeed astonishingly strong, causing everyone from the He Family to watch in amazement. It was truly incredible.

Meanwhile, aboard the skyship, many followers of the alien race repeatedly cheered; they were all followers of the Dragon Crown Prince. The more powerful the figure they followed, the more honored they felt.

After dealing with Chu Hao, they would cross the Star Universe to that uninhabited star, and then begin a long journey across the Star Sea, looking for planets rich in spiritual energy, since breakthroughs in martial arts required the support of spiritual energy. Relying solely on spirit stones was too great a consumption for anyone to sustain.

Following such a powerful Heaven Talented like the Dragon Crown Prince, they naturally could also shine in the Martial Arts World.

Their cheers grew louder, while the voices from the He Family grew weaker, for the Dragon Crown Prince became increasingly dominant, fully suppressing the three divine artifacts. Moreover, the artifacts had limited activation time if they revived autonomously, so even if the Dragon Crown Prince was just on the defensive now, he just needed to outlast the power of the artifacts to win.

The Dragon Crown Prince fought more valiantly as the battle went on. Before this, he had only been in reclusive cultivation and had never fought against Emperor Level power. But now, as the battle with the three artifacts dragged on, his mastery over the Laws grew more proficient.

The Gold Series Laws flowed in his hands, expanding the Field Domain, turning into countless purple-gold divine dragons that continuously struck the three divine artifacts, their collisions sparking the fires of the grand path.

Such a battle was even beyond He Lingtian, who could do nothing but land on the ground and watch from a distance.

He frowned; this was not a good sign.

If this had been a few months earlier, the He Family had over a dozen divine artifacts. Activating these artifacts together could definitely match the Dragon Crown Prince, or at least force him away. This was the foundation of the He Family.

But now, ninety percent of the He Family had already relocated to the New Continent, taking most of the divine artifacts with them. Thus, the current He Family was experiencing its weakest period in history, not even capable of stopping a War God.

"Bring Chu Hao, that coward, out here. I have no interest in slaughtering the weak," the Dragon Crown Prince said lightly, yet his every move was powerfully oppressive, fully suppressing the three divine artifacts.

He was aiming for Chu Hao!

He Lingtian coldly said, "You should know, this is the He Family! You come here, to show off your strength? The He Family has never feared death. Kill if you wish, but don't forget, my He Family still has many members and over a dozen divine artifacts at the New Continent, more than enough to suppress you."

The Dragon Crown Prince laughed out loud, "You think I wouldn't dare to act? What if I slaughter everyone here? With my strength, even if I'm attacked by over a dozen divine artifacts, escaping would be easy."

His expression darkened, "If you don't want to die alongside Chu Hao, let him come out this instant!"

Boom, he unleashed his divine might, sending the three divine artifacts flying one by one, demonstrating his superior combat power.

The faces of the He Family were grim. Though the three divine artifacts flew back and continued to battle with the Dragon Crown Prince, it was clear they were no match, being overwhelmed was only a matter of time.

The Dragon Crown Prince wasn't just boasting. An increased number of divine artifacts could indeed suppress a War God, provided that the War God foolishly continued to fight. If the War God wanted to escape, it would be a simple matter.

Otherwise, the Sky Martial Star would have revered divine artifacts as supreme, not War Gods.

What to do?

An escape path had appeared; all Star Masters had fled, and most War Gods had gone to the New Continent, joining efforts to transform that planet. Who now on the Sky Martial Star could restrain the Dragon Crown Prince?

"I admire those who are unyielding until death, so after I slaughter all of you, I will build a large tomb for you, and bury everyone together. Let's see, 'The Tomb of Valiant Warriors of the He Family' sounds good, don't you think?" The Dragon Crown Prince was more composed than ever, almost completely suppressing the three divine artifacts.

"No!" Gao Zhen immediately screamed, "Chu Hao is not here, he is in—"

"Shut up!" He Lingtian immediately shouted.

"Oh?" The Dragon Crown Prince smiled, "Where is Chu Hao? Tell me, and I promise I'll just clap my hands and leave."

"You promise?" Gao Zhen said with a tremulous voice, not looking at He Lingtian's expression, afraid she might change her mind.

"Gao Zhen, don't do something foolish!" He Lingtian said, his expression rather contorted.

"I promise!" The Dragon Crown Prince said with a beaming smile.

"Chu Hao is in—"

Bang!

Just as Gao Zhen began to speak, she displayed a look of disbelief, glancing down at the Sharp Sword that had pierced her chest, then looked up at He Lingtian with a complex gaze, reached out attempting to touch his face, but her hand just fell limply.

He Lingtian sheathed his sword, his face filled with sorrow.

He was flirtatious, he was affectionate, but he truly cared for each woman. To personally kill the woman he loved, his heart now felt as dead as ever. But as a former Family Head of the He Family, as a member of the He Family, he absolutely could not let the Dragon Crown Prince know Chu Hao's whereabouts.

"Mother! Mother!" He Shilong seemed to go mad, screaming relentlessly. He rushed over, pushing He Lingtian away, crying, "You killed Mother, why did you kill Mother!"

He Lingtian's face was filled with bitterness, "As a member of the He Family—"

"From now on, I am not your son, my last name isn't He, it's Gao!" He Shilong roared, then looked up to the sky and said, "Chu Hao is in the north of the Extreme Flame Sea, where there is a huge medicine field."

"Monster!" He Lingtian bellowed, raising his right hand high, ready to strike He Shilong.

"Hit me!" He Shilong thrust out his chest, "Kill me, just like you just killed mother!"

"You!" He Lingtian raised his hand even higher, but ultimately couldn't bring himself to strike, and after a while, he lowered it, showing a defeated expression, seeming to age decades in a moment and starting to cough incessantly.

"Family Head, sir!" The crowd hurried forward to persuade him, Gao Zhen indeed didn't matter much, but He Shilong was the legitimate eldest son of the He Family, actually holding a position higher than Chu Hao in the eyes of many in the Pro-emperor faction.

"Hahahaha, I didn't expect to see such a good show," the Dragon Crown Prince laughed. Then with another punch, he sent the three Divine Artifacts flying again, "Forget it, I won't play with you anymore. After I've killed Chu Hao, I'll come back to watch the fun."

He turned around and returned to the Skyship, issuing an order, "Go!"

The Skyship immediately turned and headed towards the northern part of the Extreme Flame Sea.

"Shilong, your mother, sigh!" He Lingtian forced himself to cheer up, "I'm going to find Chu Hao right now, tell him to leave the Sky Martial Star immediately. As long as he goes to the New Continent, the Dragon Crown Prince will definitely not be able to harm him. You should also leave immediately, once the Dragon Crown Prince realizes he's been deceived, he will definitely come back!"

Having spoken, he soared up and flew towards the south of the Extreme Flame Sea.

"Eldest Young Master!" The He Family members all knelt down, He Shilong had just disclosed false information. In reality, Chu Hao was in the south of the Extreme Flame Sea. Even under such circumstances, He Shilong did not betray Chu Hao, earning immense respect for his character.

Bearing his sorrow, He Shilong picked up Gao Zhen's corpse and said, "Father was right, we must leave immediately. Otherwise, we'll all die!"

"Yes, Eldest Young Master!" The He Family members all nodded in agreement.

...

He Lingtian flew through the air at an astonishing speed, reaching Xiaocao's medicine garden in just over ten minutes, took one step down and immediately said, "Chu Hao, the Dragon Crown Prince is here, leave quickly!"

Su Wanyue, Gu Qingcheng, and the other women ran out, all looking pale.

The Dragon Crown Prince has arrived?

"Chu Hao is still in seclusion, now is not a good time to disturb him!" Su Wanyue immediately said.

"No matter, even if he goes into demonic frenzy, it's better than being killed by the Dragon Crown Prince. Plus, as long as he's alive, there's still hope," He Lingtian said.

Su Wanyue and the women were not people of hesitation, they immediately nodded.

"I'll go!" Su Wanyue said, as she and Chu Hao represented Yin and Yang, and her waking him would likely cause him the least harm.

"Heh, let me do it," a man's voice rang out.

The faces of everyone immediately turned ugly.

The Dragon Crown Prince!

A man descended from the sky, hands behind his back, a mocking smile on his face, "He Lingtian, you and your son, thinking I didn't see through you?"

They had been duped!

The Dragon Crown Prince had pretended to be fooled, but in fact, he had followed He Lingtian straight here, finding Chu Hao even faster.

Taking a deep breath, He Lingtian spoke without turning back, "You guys take Chu Hao and go, I'll hold him off!"

"Hahahaha, what a joke, a mere War Emperor, how could you hold me off?" the Dragon Crown Prince said with a face full of disdain, "Don't bother, it's futile. This entire area is controlled by my Field Domain, here, I am god!"

"Little Gray!" Xiaocao cried out lightly, and with a boom, the ground trembled, and a vine shot out from the underground like a long spear, shooting towards the Dragon Crown Prince.

"Hmm?" the Dragon Crown Prince showed a hint of surprise, "Is this the Heaven Connecting Vine? Legend has it that the Heaven Connecting Vine can connect two planets, a Cosmic Level existence, and it's unexpected to find one here."

He flicked his fingers, snap, and the vine was sent flying—the Grey Vine was only at the Third Tier War Emperor level, not even a match for He Lingtian, how could it stop the Dragon Crown Prince?

Snap, snap, snap, the Grey Vine continued to attack, the Dragon Crown Prince initially flicked his fingers, but then couldn't even be bothered to flick anymore, just stood with his hands behind his back. However, with his Field Domain open, he dominated this piece of heaven and earth, what use was a Grey Vine's attack?

"How much longer must this farce continue?" the Dragon Crown Prince said coolly, he wasn't in a hurry to kill Chu Hao, as he was already within his grasp. So what if Chu Hao could elevate to War God in such a short time?

Impossible, the information he had received was that Chu Hao was aiming for War Emperor.

Even if Chu Hao succeeded, what would a First Tier War Emperor do against a Fist Tier War God? Ha, isn't that a joke? War Emperor is just Upper Three Realms, but War God is War God, a completely different level!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote on qidian.com.
