"Roar!"
The Soul Dragon Emperor roared, its eyes filled with rage. This creature was too inhumane...
The other party referring to it as "on the table" naturally meant it was to be served as food.
Seeing the Soul Dragon Emperor's mindset shift, Chen Shu immediately ordered his contracted spirits to engage.
The two sides clashed once more.
The Soul Dragon Emperor was already no match for Chen Shu, and with the added fear in its heart, it had lost all power to resist.
In the blink of an eye,
Its body was covered in wounds. The power of time and space continuously gnawed at its soul form, gradually leading it towards the path of death.
At this moment, the Soul Dragon Emperor pulled away again, letting out a fierce roar:
"You can't kill me!"
"Still talking tough?"
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow and said, "Don't you even look at what you've been beaten into?"
"If I were you, I'd be preparing to run."
The Soul Dragon Emperor's gaze was fierce, "The other Beast Emperors are about to arrive!"
"Then let them come."
Chen Shu shrugged, unfazed by the threat. Instead, he urged his contracted spirits to pursue.
The Soul Dragon Emperor wailed,
"It's true! I have roots from the Dark Nether Tree Emperor on me!"
With that, it opened its massive maw and spat out a black root, which emanated a mysterious power.
"It really does?"
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.
"The fall of the nine Great Fiends made us suspect the Heavenly Knights were responsible."
Seeing Chen Shu's reaction, the Soul Dragon Emperor quickly explained,
"To prevent us from being ambushed, the Dark Nether Tree Emperor gave each Beast Emperor a root. It sends a signal at regular intervals, and if there's no response, they'll know I'm in trouble!"
Initially, the Great Fiends claimed seventeen of them had fallen.
The New Era Beast Emperors had only killed eight high-level Great Fiends, so they naturally thought the other side was talking nonsense.
But the ones who eventually went to the starry sky truly did not include those nine Great Fiends.
Either they had genuinely fallen, or they had been abandoned,
But the former was more likely.
Coupled with the emergence of the Heavenly Knights, the New Era Beast Emperors instinctively believed the unfathomable Heavenly Knights had annihilated the nine Great Fiends.
The Dark Nether Tree Emperor's move was originally just a precaution against the Heavenly Knights, but who knew it would lead to Chen Shu...
"Oh."
Chen Shu simply nodded, then ordered his contracted spirits to attack fiercely again.
"I'm telling the truth!"
"I didn't say I didn't believe you."
"..."
Seeing this, the Soul Dragon Emperor's eyes finally filled with panic, and it roared,
"If they all descend, you'll be in danger!"
"Thanks for your concern. I can run anytime."
Chen Shu smiled faintly and said, "However, you've reminded me. I need to finish you off sooner."
With that, he took out three bottles of Beast Emperor Pills and threw them forward.
Over the past six months, although he hadn't found a suitable opportunity, he had made considerable preparations.
The most important Beast Emperor Pills, naturally, had been prepared in greater quantities.
Despite its panic, the Soul Dragon Emperor still uncritically swallowed the Beast Emperor Pills upon seeing them, immediately becoming even weaker.
"You're really going to kill me?"
At this moment, its voice trembled, and its eyes held a hint of dread.
"Nonsense."
Chen Shu crossed his arms and said, "You dared to try and destroy the restrooms of my Huaxia Academy. Your crime is unforgivable!"
"..."
The Soul Dragon Emperor, its face filled with fear, desperately stalled for time...
...
At the very moment the two sides were locked in battle,
The New Era Beast Emperors did indeed sense that something was wrong.
The roots provided by the Dark Nether Tree Emperor were like a global communicator. The communicator on the Soul Dragon Emperor's person losing signal was naturally highly suspicious.
Instantly, the various Beast Emperors gathered at the fastest speed.
"Did the Heavenly Knights make a move?"
The Sky Rabbit's eyes held a killing intent. After half a year, had they finally found the opponent's trace?
"Unclear."
The Dark Nether Tree Emperor hummed, "But the Soul Dragon Emperor has likely met with misfortune. There's been no response at all."
"Let's go and see!"
The Beast Emperors acted in unison, heading straight for the distant Divine Continent.
Soon,
They arrived at the Divine Continent, but looking at the surrounding environment, which appeared as usual, the Beast Emperors were stunned.
There was no sign of any great battle on the continent. The ferocious beasts crawling everywhere were also as usual, showing no anomalies.
The only difference was that the Soul Dragon Emperor had disappeared!
"What's going on..."
The Mermaid Beast Emperor's heart jolted, unable to comprehend the situation.
"Could it be that the Soul Dragon Emperor left on its own?"
"Impossible."
The Sky Rabbit shook its head, "It wouldn't leave without a word. Something must have happened."
"I've sensed something is amiss."
The Dark Nether Tree Emperor rooted itself into the Divine Continent and began to probe the entire continent.
"It might have fallen into some special domain."
The Nine Nether Python spoke, "Everyone, be careful."
At once, the Beast Emperors released their detection skills, searching for the Soul Dragon Emperor's trace.
Although the stealth of the space-time domain was extremely strong, with so many Beast Emperors searching with all their might, it couldn't remain hidden for long.
In less than fifteen minutes,
The Dark Nether Tree Emperor made a discovery. Its roots burrowed into various parts of the sky, finally pinpointing the approximate location of the space-time domain.
"Attack towards the location of my roots!"
With that, the Beast Emperors nodded and simultaneously unleashed their attacks towards the position indicated by the Dark Nether Tree Emperor.
Boom!
In an instant, their skills hit an invisible barrier, followed by the sound of space shattering.
As the space-time domain broke apart, they finally saw the Soul Dragon Emperor.
However, the Soul Dragon Emperor's condition was slightly poor at this moment.
Its body was fractured and lusterless. Its once vigorous soul power was like a candle in the wind.
Currently, its surroundings were shrouded in a layer of gray-white mist, permeated with terrifying space-time power.
As the Sky Rabbit's expression shifted, the gray-white mist instantly exploded.
"Not good!"
The other Beast Emperors, seeing this, were about to intervene, but it was too late.
The Sky Rabbit's killing move, [Extreme · Space-Time Annihilation], instantly extinguished the Soul Dragon Emperor's remaining life force.
The next second, the Sky Rabbit collected the Soul Dragon Emperor's entire body.
Concurrently, Chen Shu heard the sound of a completed achievement option in his mind.
His expression stirred, and he looked at the Beast Emperors with a smile, saying,
"As expected of a soul-attribute Beast Emperor, you're quite troublesome. You've finally seen through it."
"Since that's the case, I won't hide my identity anymore. You can await my elder brother, the Heavenly Knight, for reckoning..."
