Apex Novel
Clearly, they were shocked by the words of the Divine Pavilion Master.
The meaning behind those simple words couldn't be any clearer. The Divine Pavilion Master was actually trying to unify the Northern Region!
Over the past thousand years, there had been many ambitious experts of the Northern Region that had tried to accomplish such a grand ambition. However, all of them failed in the end. The reason was none other than the numerous experts of the Northern Region had risen together, yet it was difficult for an overlord that could truly deter the other top forces to appear.
But right now, could the Divine Pavilion Master be trying to become an Overlord that hadn't appeared for so many years?!
However, how could the leaders of the other top forces let him have his way?
After all, which one of these Earth Sovereigns wasn't prideful? So how could they abandon their pride and bow to the Divine Pavilion Master?
Naturally, if the Divine Pavilion Master could surpass them in terms of strength, perhaps the rulers of the other peak forces would reconsider. But right now, although the Divine Pavilion Master's strength had risen to the Quasi-Greater Earth Sovereign Realm, it still wasn't enough to intimidate the other Earth Sovereigns.
Furthermore, aside from the Quasi-Greater Earth Sovereign Realm like the Divine Pavilion Master, Mandala was also on the same level, with the grudges between the latter and the Divine Pavilion.
With the grudges between the latter and the Divine Pavilion Master, they definitely wouldn't allow the Divine Pavilion Master to do as he wished.
So the Divine Pavilion Master had suddenly revealed his thoughts at this moment.
The various forces felt that it was a little unimaginable. However, they could vaguely feel that something was amiss.
But vaguely, they had their guards up.
The five Earth Sovereigns' gazes lightly flickered as they exchanged their gazes, before looking at Mandala at the same time. Facing the powerful Divine Pavilion Master, they were a little fearful at this moment, so they did not dare to speak. On the contrary, they were hoping that Mandala could make a move first.
However, under their gazes, Mandala smiled indifferently.
Her golden pupils squinted as if she hadn't heard anything. There were many grudges between the peak forces in the Northern Region. Although she hated the Divine Pavilion Master, she naturally wouldn't stand up for those fellows for nothing.
When the five Earth Sovereigns saw Mandala's reaction, they were a little resentful, before the Myriad Saint Ancestor of the Myriad Saint Peak smiled with his eyes narrowed. "Great Havenlaw Ruler, this matter concerns the situation of the Northern Region, so I hope that you can express your opinion.
Thank you so much. "
His words clearly implied that he was pleading for Mandala to give in. Furthermore, he clearly understood that Mandala's strength had improved greatly after this Hunting War.
They had already surpassed them by a little. In the future, in the Northern Region, it seemed like their Ten Thousand Saint Mountain had to get closer to the Great Heaven Domain.
The expressions of the other Earth Sovereigns changed.
But in the end, they all agreed with the words of the Myriad Saint Ancestor. Only Liu Tiandao of the Sky Profound Palace had an unnatural expression.
In the past, there were many grudges between him and Mandala. But now that Mandala had gained the upper hand, he had no choice but to give in.
Thus, he had no choice but to give in.
When Mandala saw his response, she faintly smiled and calmly said, "The Divine Pavilion Master has such courage, which is truly admirable. But my Great Heaven Domain does not have such intentions, so you guys can look for someone else."
Seeing Mandala's attitude, the other Earth Sovereigns inwardly felt relieved. The Myriad Saint Ancestor, Demon Emperor and Sky Serpent Old Ghost had also nodded their heads in agreement.
Only Liu Tiandao did not give a definite answer. His gaze flickered and no one knew what he was thinking.
When Mu Chen and the rest saw this scene, they exchanged a look. This confrontation had already exceeded their limits, so no matter what they did, they couldn't change the situation. Thus, they could only watch the situation change.
"Haha. Looks like the few of you aren't interested in my suggestion."
The Divine Pavilion Master wasn't surprised to receive such a response. However, the profound smile on his face made the hearts of the Myriad Saint Ancestor and the rest tremble.
"Hmph. Isn't your Divine Pavilion a little too greedy? I can see that you guys want to devour us and dominate the Northern Region, right?"
The Demon Emperor of the Demon Gate had a prideful character. Although he was a little fearful of the Divine Pavilion Master, he did not take a step back and coldly said.
"But I have to say something impolite. I'm afraid that you're not qualified to dominate the Northern Region with your strength at the Quasi-Greater Earth Sovereign Realm!"
When he spoke, the Divine Pavilion Master squinted his eyes and gently smiled. "So you're thinking that my strength is too low and has yet to step into the Greater Earth Sovereign Realm?"
When the Rulers of the various peak forces heard his words, they did not comment.
When the Divine Pavilion Master saw this scene, a peculiar arc rose on the corner of his lips. In the next instant, his gaze suddenly turned sharp and his roar was akin to thunder as it rumbled between the heavens and earth, causing the heavens and earth to tremble and the experts of every force had a drastic change in their faces.
"Since that's the case, then I'll let you guys witness how difficult it is for me to break through to the Greater Earth Sovereign Realm!"
When he spoke, not only did the faces of the Myriad Saint Ancestor and the rest change, even Mandala had abruptly narrowed her eyes and shock could no longer be concealed on her face.
"What did he say?
He can still break through?! "
A commotion broke out as the Sleeping Emperor and the other two had disbelief written on their faces. The Spiritual Divine Liquid from before had already been exhausted by the Divine Pavilion Master. Unless he possessed another perfect Spiritual Divine Liquid, it was absolutely impossible for him to break through to the last step!
Mu Chen and Jiu You exchanged a glance and saw the shock in each other's eyes. After the shock, Mu Chen's face had also turned darker. Although the Divine Pavilion Master's words were unbelievable, he would definitely not speak nonsense at this moment. If that's the case, then he might really have other means to achieve it.
It was no wonder why he dared to speak such words, so he really had a hidden trump card.
Under all the shocked gazes in this region, the Divine Pavilion Master suddenly revealed an unusual smile as he spread his arms out. In that instant when he spread his arms out, his eyes had turned black and a dense black aura swept out. It was so dense that it covered the sun and even caused space to shatter.
The black aura was indescribably powerful. Furthermore, it seemed to contain a peculiar energy that was incompatible with this region. That energy was extremely cold, which made others feel a chill in their hearts.
The Divine Pavilion Master stood in the black aura and spread his arms out. He abruptly inhaled and the torrential black aura endlessly poured into his body through his nostrils.
Along with the influx of the black aura, the Divine Pavilion Master's hair had swiftly grown. Furthermore, the pressure emanating from his body had also skyrocketed at a shocking speed.
In just ten-odd breaths' time, the pressure had already exceeded Mandala, who was also a Quasi-Greater Earth Sovereign!
The faces of Mandala and the other Earth Sovereigns had completely turned unsightly as they looked at this scene with disbelief. Especially the peculiar black aura that even made them feel a chill.
"What is that black aura?!
Why is it incompatible with the Spiritual Energy in this region …? "
"Furthermore, it's so sinister … the corrosive power is extremely powerful!"
"But that energy is too powerful. It doesn't belong to the Divine Pavilion Master, so where did that fellow get it from?!"
The few Earth Sovereigns couldn't hold it back any longer as they conversed through voice transmissions filled with shock.
Mandala fixed her gaze on the Divine Pavilion Master, whose pressure had skyrocketed. A brief moment later, she seemed to have thought of something and abruptly inhaled a mouthful of chilled air, before she gritted her teeth. "That energy doesn't belong to the Great Thousand World, but the Fiend Clans!"
"Divine Pavilion Master, you're insane to even dare to touch that energy!"
"The energy of the Fiend Clans?"
Hearing her words, the other Earth Sovereigns had shock written on their faces. The Divine Pavilion Master was actually insane to even dare to absorb energy that didn't belong to the Great Thousand World?
"I got it!
That must be the energy left behind by the Skyeater Evil Emperor!
It's said that in that ancient war, the Skyeater Evil Emperor was obstructed by the Fourth Hall Master in the Fallen Battlefield, resulting in a heaven-shaking battle. After that battle, the Fourth Hall Master fell and the Skyeater Evil Emperor was sealed! "The Myriad Saint Ancestor roared with shock on his face. Clearly, he had guessed the ins and outs of the matter.
"This place was formed by the Fourth Palace Master's Sovereign Sea. If he wanted to seal it, then the bottom of the Sovereign Sea is the most likely location. Previously, the Divine Pavilion Master was sent to the bottom of the sea by the Spiritual Puppet and did not appear for a long time. I believe that he must have broken the seal at that time and obtained the energy left behind by the Skyeater Evil Emperor!"
When the Demon Emperor and the rest heard the Myriad Saint Ancestor's analysis, their hearts trembled and they finally understood why the Divine Pavilion Master would act so rashly at that time. So it turned out that he wasn't stupid, but he had purposely dived into the bottom of the sea to release the energy of the Skyeater Evil Emperor, which was sealed by the Fourth Palace Master.
Mandala's face was pale. She clearly did not expect that the Divine Pavilion Master would do such a thing under their noses.
"Haha, you guys finally understand …"
While the Earth Sovereigns were shocked, the Divine Pavilion Master, who was shrouded in the black aura, lightly smiled. However, his smile seemed to have turned more sinister at this moment.
He enjoyed the powerful energy surging in his body and smiled. "But you guys don't know that the Skyeater Evil Emperor has already been reduced to ashes after being sealed for tens of thousands of years. Only a strand of energy remains. Although that energy is sinister, it's not enough to corrode me. When I have completely devoured it, I will be able to take the final step and become a genuine Greater Earth Sovereign!"
As he spoke, the smile on the corner of his lips became even more sinister.
"And now … do you guys think that I have the strength to become the Overlord of the Northern Region?"
