Chapter 1155: Beneath the Darkness
Very soon.
Ji Lengyue returned, and she quickly organized the news about the Spider Emperor.
All information from the past ninety thousand years regarding the Spider Emperor's stay in the Xuanhuang Great World was compiled.
Amongst it was also the news about the Spider Emperor heading to the east of the East Desolate, guarding that place for thirty thousand years.
That was the era when the East Desolate Wolf was guarded by the Emperor General Spider.
Additionally, it was about the deeds of the Spider Emperor in the Xuanhuang Great World.
As one of the Double Emperors, directly under the command of Empress Changxi, the Emperor General Spider possessed unparalleled glory.
At the same time, the Emperor General Spider also possessed formidable power.
Although the Spider Emperor was the weakest amongst the Emperor Generals under Empress Changxi, he was still one of the top-tier powerhouses in All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds after Empress Changxi reached her peak.
What is an Emperor General?
That is a general under the Great Emperor!
Anyone with the title of an Emperor General, no matter how weak, is a paramount powerhouse that sweeps across the Eight Desolates!
Never underestimate the Emperor General Spider just because he is the weakest under Empress Changxi.
If you have such thoughts, you'll die not knowing how when facing the Emperor General Spider.
After receiving orders from the Double Emperors, the Emperor General Spider first guarded the east of the East Desolate for thirty thousand years, and then remained in the Xuanhuang Great World, appearing once at Double Emperor Mountain.
Afterward, he went to Dingzhou Continent, wandered over the ruins of the Nine Tripods Immortal Sect, as if searching for something.
Later, he came to the Central Earth Divine Continent of Daozhou, visiting the old site of the Purple Sun Ancient Sect.
After that, he rarely appeared.
Until twenty thousand years ago, the Emperor General Spider visited Kunlun Ruins on the Divine Continent to meet a mysterious figure.
Afterwards, he returned to his lair at the Pan Si Mountain Sky Spider Cave.
Since then, he has not shown himself again.
This is all the information regarding the Emperor General Spider from Floating Mountain.
"Why did he visit the old sites of the Purple Sun Ancient Sect and the Nine Tripods Immortal Sect…" Qiao Xinyu murmured, feeling a slight stir in her heart.
The Purple Sun Ancient Sect was destroyed by the Revenge Lineage Black Blade Sect over a hundred thousand years ago.
This event shook the entire Daozhou at the time.
The Nine Tripods Immortal Sect, one of Dingzhou's overlords, was also destroyed by the Revenge Lineage Black Blade Sect eighty thousand years ago.
This matter isn't a secret in the Xuanhuang Great World either.
Why would the Spider Emperor visit the old sites?
If one were to say the Spider Emperor went to reminisce about the Black Blade Sect's power, Qiao Xinyu definitely wouldn't believe it.
"Emperor Ye, there are no traces of the Spider Emperor at the Pan Si Mountain Sky Spider Cave," Yun Daoli suddenly felt something amiss, transmitting a message to Ye Xuan.
Just now, another member of the Void Sect in the Xuanhuang Great World sent a message to Yun Daoli.
It was precisely this message.
"Did he go straight to Pan Si Mountain?" Ye Xuan's brows furrowed sharply.
"What's wrong?" Yun Daoli instinctively asked.
"Go find him right away," Ye Xuan said solemnly.
Realizing the gravity of the situation, Yun Daoli had no time to ask questions. He immediately utilized the Void Technique and vanished from everyone's sight.
"Emperor Ye…" Qiao Xinyu was somewhat worried.
Ye Xuan raised his hand slightly, squinting, and said, "Don't worry too much; perhaps the Spider Emperor isn't there."
If the Spider Emperor was at Pan Si Mountain, and the Void Sect member went directly there, they would certainly encounter an ambush.
In that place, the Spider Emperor held absolute dominion.
Even members of the Void Sect would barely escape death.
Moreover, this would alert the enemy, causing the Spider Emperor to flee.
Fortunately, Ye Xuan had already set up traps in the Mountain God Realm early on.
If the Spider Emperor went elsewhere, he would inevitably contact the Feng brothers.
Then, Ye Xuan could trap him.
Now, he could only hope the Spider Emperor was not at Pan Si Mountain. That way, there would be no alert and no loss of combat power.
Don't ask why Ye Xuan didn't go with Yun Daoli.
Yun Daoli had only two possible outcomes: meeting his colleague unharmed or finding his colleague's corpse while the Spider Emperor had long gone.
As mentioned above, never underestimate an Emperor General, even the weakest one.
And no matter the outcome, it wouldn't affect Ye Xuan's scheme.
He had vowed.
To personally slay that wretch.
"You may step back for now; I will discuss the Dao Ding matter with your generation's Saint Master."
Ye Xuan waved his hand, dismissing Ji Lengyue.
Ji Lengyue complied and withdrew.
In the blink of an eye, only the Qiankun Ancestor and Qiao Xinyu remained by Ye Xuan's side.
With the two holding Master Huai and the White Fox King, they followed Ye Xuan, flying towards the Ji Family's important grounds.
......
This was a dim world, with grey matter floating all around.
In the middle, a large chunk of grey matter condensed to form a floating island.
On that island, people came and went.
These people were of various appearances, representing different races.
They all wore expressions of fanaticism on their faces.
But as time passed, the void constantly flickered, with people missing limbs appearing one after another.
Despite this, the fervor on their faces never diminished.
On a small mountain formed at the island's center, there was a Dark Divine Palace.
Currently, within the Dark Divine Palace, there were individuals cloaked in black robes and hats, each seated in their positions.
Four seats on the two sides were empty.
Additionally, the main seat was also unoccupied.
"Four were lost on the Daozhou side, and there were also issues with the plans on the Divine Continent side. The plan completely failed this time…" The second seat on the right was occupied by a three-meter-tall burly creature, speaking in a deep, resentful tone.
"The Evil Dragon in the Xuanhuang Great World has always been the most severely sealed. This result was somewhat anticipated." The first seat on the left, a person cloaked in black robe and hat, spoke in an aged voice.
"Anticipated? Do you know how long it takes to prepare for a plan?!" The burly creature was very agitated, speaking coldly: "And yet Daozhou, the weakest in power, lost four! You call this anticipated?!"
At these words, the Dark Divine Palace fell into silence.
This matter indeed exceeded their expectations.
"Calm down, no one wanted this. Let's report this to the Divine King first." The second position on the left said in a calm tone.
Buzz————
At this moment, a dark shadow suddenly surged on the main seat of the Dark Divine Palace.
Moments later.
A dark silhouette appeared on the main seat.
"Greetings, Divine King!"
Seeing the dark silhouette, everyone in the Dark Divine Palace was startled and immediately prostrated themselves on the ground.
"How is the plan proceeding?" The dark silhouette slowly spoke, with a voice akin to demonic echoes.
In response, the entire Dark Divine Palace was deathly silent.
Everyone felt a chill down their spine, cold sweat pouring.
"Hmm?" The dark silhouette elongated the last sound.
An indescribable authority spread out.
Everyone was terrified, and finally, the owner of the aged voice explained everything.
The dark silhouette, after hearing this, remained silent for a long time.
Moments later, the dark silhouette disappeared, but the words left behind echoed in everyone's ears.
"Gather all the Evil God Sect forces in the Xuanhuang Great World and launch a full-scale attack on Daozhou!"
"If you can't unseal the Evil Dragon of Daozhou, you all must die!"
