Chapter 1840: Offsite assistance

Translator: GodBrandy Editor: Kurisu

It was in such good condition that it had discovered the person approaching them one step earlier than Scarlet Heaven.

As soon as Scarlet Heaven Sword finished speaking, a man wearing a royal robe appeared beside Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven. The man was holding a pagoda, and when he came into view, he was smiling while looking at Daoist Priest Scarlet with a hint of compassion in his eyes.

Scarlet Heaven Sword said softly, “Be careful, Scarlet Heaven. This guy looks quite strong.”

“I know,” Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven replied. Judging from the other party’s aura, he did indeed seem to be quite powerful.

Since he’s wearing a royal robe, he must be related to the Ancient Heavenly City. Could he be an incarnation of the Heavenly Emperor?

“At this time, it would be great if we had the Expert’s Appraisal,” Scarlet Heaven Sword suddenly said. “That way, we could immediately confirm whether or not the other party is truly a peerless expert.”

What’s the Expert’s Appraisal? I’ve never heard of such a technique in my life.

[The Great Southern Emperor of the Heavenly City greets fellow daoists.] At this moment, the man with the pagoda in his hand spoke out. He spoke without moving his lips, directly transmitting his voice through the air.

Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven greeted the other party in return. “I’m Scarlet Heaven.”

In addition to the Heavenly Emperor, the Ancient Heavenly City also had several Immortal-level existences. Among them, the most well-known were the Heavenly City’s Four Great Emperors of the Cardinal Directions. Each of these great emperors was a top-tier powerhouse.

Currently, the Great Northern Emperor had managed to get a new lease on life, and the same seemed true for the Great Western Emperor.

However, compared to the two of them, there hadn’t been any news of the Great Southern Emperor and the Great Eastern Emperor ever since the collapse of the Heavenly City.

Scarlet Heaven did not expect that he would come to meet one of the great emperors in this place.

He’s a truly powerful existence.?As he thought of this, Scarlet Heaven tightened his grip on his life-bound sword, experiencing a hot-bloodedness he hadn’t felt for a long time.

When it came to peak existences, there was no need for nonsense. After they declared their identities, what came next was a battle between Immortals.

The Great Southern Emperor stretched and raised his hand, and layers of dazzling light appeared on the pagoda. The treasure light shone brightly in all directions, and it was so powerful that it even suppressed spatial energy.

Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven slowly raised his sword, holding it level in the air. The blade was completely encased in violent sword intent that felt as if it would easily tear the sky apart.

Even before they properly clashed, merely the confrontation between two Immortals could change the color of the world. Every ordinary thing that was within the area of their confrontation would be reduced to nothing.

For some reason, Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven suddenly had a very strong feeling of deja vu.

He felt as if his confrontation with the Great Southern Emperor had already happened in the past.

However, Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven didn’t have time to dwell on such thoughts at the moment.

The Great Southern Emperor made his move, and the treasure light from his pagoda shot up, turning into a dazzling buddhist halo.

Was this great emperor a Buddhist Immortal?

And so, the battle between the two Immortals began!

Meanwhile, over in the main world, Song Shuhang stopped using the ?Saber-Nurturing Technique? and asked, “Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, you still need me to continue?”

“Slow down first. My main body and Scarlet Heaven have encountered a powerful enemy. At this time, we shouldn’t cause Scarlet Heaven any trouble,” Scarlet Heaven Sword’s scabbard said with a tinge of regret in its tone.

Song Shuhang’s two-handed ?Saber-Nurturing Technique? is just so refreshing. If I have a chance, I have to experience it again.

Song Shuhang asked, “A powerful enemy? Where did they come from?”

Scarlet Heaven Sword’s scabbard replied, “It’s the Ancient Heavenly City’s Great Southern Emperor.”

Song Shuhang’s heart thumped. Afterward, he sent his consciousness into the Inner World and contacted Senior Turtle. “Senior Turtle~”

Inside the Inner World, Senior Turtle was lying upside down with all four of its legs up in the air. While it was in such a position, Lady Onion was pouring water into its shell.

“What are you doing?” Song Shuhang looked confused.

Senior Turtle replied, “I want to see if I can raise fish in my turtle shell.”

Senior, are you really that bored?

Senior Turtle asked, “Is something up?”

Song Shuhang nodded. “Senior Turtle, do you know anything about the Great Southern Emperor? For example, his weaknesses?”

If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear a hundred battles.

As the beloved pet of the Great Northern Emperor, Senior Turtle should know a little bit about the Great Southern Emperor, right? After all, they’re both great emperors of the four cardinal directions.

After thinking for a short moment, Senior Turtle said, “The Great Southern Emperor? Oh, that guy is very sinister. On the surface, he looks like a good person, disguised as a buddhist cultivator. However, his path to immortality is related to ‘temptation’. When fighting against him, you should never listen to him. Just focus on the battle and don’t bother with any nonsense.”

Song Shuhang asked, “Thank you, Senior Turtle. Is there anything else you know about him?”

At the same time, Song Shuhang quickly passed the information he got from Senior Turtle to Scarlet Heaven Sword’s scabbard so that it could then be passed over to Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven.

One should never look down on offsite assistance, as it could be the deciding factor in many matters.

“Also, if I remember correctly, he should have a pagoda with him. On each floor of the pagoda, there is a charge of a full-powered attack from the Heavenly Emperor. I just don’t know if his pagoda is still of any use after all this time. Nevertheless, back then, he had a lot of those charges stored inside, so it’s best to watch out for that. In the past, among the four great emperors, he was a strong supporter of the Heavenly Emperor.” Senior Turtle pondered. “I don’t remember anything else. After all, an existence at the level of my master has next to no weaknesses.”

For existences of their level, if they did have a weakness, they would quickly deal with it. Sometimes, their rumored weakness was their strongest trump card.

Song Shuhang said, “Thank you, Senior Turtle. This piece of information came just at the right time!”

Senior Turtle suddenly remembered the list of big shots Song Shuhang had fought against in recent times, asking nervously, “Wait a minute... Why are you suddenly asking about the Great Southern Emperor? Don’t tell me that you’ve gotten in a fight with him?”

Song Shuhang said, “No, Senior Turtle, don’t worry. It’s Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven who is fighting against the Great Southern Emperor. Right now, I’m just relaying some information about the Great Southern Emperor, and providing off-site support to Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven.”

Senior Turtle said, “Oh, that’s good then. The Great Southern Emperor is quite difficult to deal with, and you would probably never have a peaceful day if you made him your enemy.”

Song Shuhang laughed. “Don’t worry, Senior Turtle. I actually have a pretty good grasp of my own capabilities. I do my best to avoid big shots like him if I can.”

Right after saying that, Song Shuhang relayed the information about the Great Southern Emperor’s ‘pagoda’ to Scarlet Heaven Sword’s scabbard.

This was all he could do for Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven.

“Alright, have you had enough rest?” Song Shuhang called out to the Ancient Heavenly City’s fragment.

The fragment shouted happily, “Yup~ Profound Sage Tyrannical Song, let’s continue!”

Song Shuhang laughed and landed on it again.

As soon as he did, he began using the two-handed ?Saber-Nurturing Technique? once more.

The Ancient Heavenly City’s fragment exclaimed, “It’s actually faster, stronger, and more comfortable than the last time. It’s truly a great fortune of mine to have been able to meet Profound Sage Tyrannical Song after exiting the ground!”

In the air, Senior White’s clone said softly, “Such a terrifying secret technique.”

With Song Shuhang’s hard work, the fragment finally shrunk to a small enough size. “Life is wonderful!”

“Great! Okay, you can head in now.” Song Shuhang opened the Inner World, and sent the fragment inside.

Inside the Inner World.

Song Shuhang, Senior White’s clone, Su Clan’s Sixteen, Senior Turtle, Lady Onion, the puppet maiden, Fairy Creation, the virtuous lamia, Pavilion Master Chu’s consciousness, and Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword’s scabbard all gathered at the entrance of the new fragment of the Heavenly City.

Song Shuhang called out, “Okay, you can open the cover.”

Heavenly Court Fragment said, “Sure, Profound Sage Tyrannical Song.”

It slowly opened its defensive cover, revealing a well-preserved temple-shaped palace.

“The Southern Autumn Temple.... F*ck, and you’re saying that you weren’t fighting the Great Southern Emperor?” Senior Turtle said. “You even moved his old home here!”
