Chapter 2660: Qingyang Immortal Emperor’s Choice
Qingyang Immortal Emperor is undoubtedly a very clever immortal.
And clever immortals often think a lot.
Qingyang Immortal Emperor considers that if Wushuang Immortal Emperor were replaced with himself, upon discovering the corpse of the Emperor Realm Redflame Dragon, by personal motives, he might initially conceal this news and then think about how to claim the Emperor Realm Redflame Dragon corpse for himself, instead of Wushuang Immortal Emperor returning and telling the other immortals the news.
However, Wushuang Immortal Emperor did exactly that.
Thus, Qingyang Immortal Emperor finds Wushuang Immortal Emperor increasingly unreadable, wondering whether Wushuang Immortal Emperor is truly righteous, ready to share the benefits of the Emperor Realm dragon corpse with all immortals, or whether he has strong confidence in his own strength, not fearing any immortal would compete with him for benefits?
"The treasure of the Immortal Realm belongs to those who are destined for it. Since the Redflame Dragon corpse was discovered by Immortal Friend Wushuang, it should belong to him."
Qingyang Immortal Emperor paused briefly before speaking seriously.
Though he has personal desire and greed, he is ultimately not a ruthless and unscrupulous immortal. Previously, when Fang Bai discovered the large Immortal Stone Vein and shared it with them, it had somewhat moved him, so he did not want to fight Fang Bai to the death for the Emperor Realm Redflame Dragon corpse.
Moreover, in his eyes, although Wushuang Immortal Emperor’s realm and cultivation level are equivalent to his own, there seems to be a layer of fog covering him, making him unreadable, which adds a bit of dread to his heart.
He also speculates that Fang Bai returned to inform them of the news because he realized he could not obtain the Redflame Dragon corpse by his own strength, thus seeking their assistance.
If the five immortals join forces to obtain the Redflame Dragon corpse, then each immortal can rightfully receive a portion of the benefits.
Regardless, this is the goodwill released by Fang Bai. If they are oblivious and insist on seizing greater benefits, it would be a disgraceful behavior.
The words Qingyang Immortal Emperor said earlier, "Since the Redflame Dragon corpse was discovered by Wushuang Immortal Emperor, it should belong to Immortal Friend Wushuang," was actually a strategy of retreating for advance; he believes Fang Bai would never monopolize it.
Fang Bai smiled and said, "I have a method to obtain the Redflame Dragon corpse. However, once obtained, the Dragon Ball is mine, and I want thirty percent of the other parts of the dragon corpse. The remaining parts will be equally divided among you four. How about it?"
With these words from Fang Bai, Qingyang Immortal Emperor and the other four immortals looked at each other.
White-Haired Fairy naturally has no objections.
Fairy Qingxia and Spirit Thunder Immortal Emperor once again directed their gaze at Qingyang Immortal Emperor.
Qingyang Immortal Emperor furrowed his brow slightly, pondering without speaking.
Like Fang Bai, he most desires the Dragon Ball and then relying on the abundant immortal power contained in the Dragon Ball, to attack the Emperor Realm.
But after all, there is only one Dragon Ball, and it cannot be split into two, meaning among the five immortals, only one immortal can obtain it.
"Of course, if any of you have the ability to obtain the Redflame Dragon corpse, the Dragon Ball can also belong to you. But you should understand, although the Emperor Realm Redflame Dragon has fallen, it cannot be approached by ordinary immortals."
Fang Bai’s gaze swept over Qingyang Immortal Emperor, Fairy Qingxia, and Spirit Thunder Immortal Emperor and then said: "Therefore, I advise you: if you are not confident in withstanding the killing intent attack of the Emperor Realm expert, do not take risks lightly; otherwise, the possibility of falling is high."
The immortals, including Qingyang Immortal Emperor, know Fang Bai is not exaggerating.
Though their strength is of high rank at the Immortal Emperor Realm, and even at its peak, they can stand proudly above most immortals in the Immortal Realm, they are powerless against an Emperor Realm expert.
Even the killing intent of a fallen Emperor Realm expert is challenging for them to withstand.
Thus, after Fang Bai said that, several immortals including Qingyang Immortal Emperor fell silent.
"Immortal Friend Wushuang, are you truly confident in obtaining the Redflame Dragon corpse?"
A moment later, Qingyang Immortal Emperor asked.
Seeing Fang Bai nod with confidence, he exhaled lightly, smiled, and said: "In that case, we shall wait here for good news from Immortal Friend Wushuang."
The meaning of his words was now evident: he acknowledged Fang Bai’s proposed method of distributing the Redflame Dragon corpse.
Seeing Qingyang Immortal Emperor display a willingness to follow Fang Bai’s lead, White-Haired Fairy also sighed in relief and quickly exchanged a glance with Fang Bai.
They both feel Qingyang Immortal Emperor has self-awareness, knows how to advance and retreat, and is worthy of being drawn into alliance.
With Qingyang Immortal Emperor being this way, Fairy Qingxia and Spirit Thunder Immortal Emperor naturally have no objections.
"Once the killing intent of the Emperor Realm expert is released, it can cause this mountain range to collapse. Therefore, it would be better for all of you to leave this place temporarily to avoid being affected."
Fang Bai said, giving White-Haired Fairy a glance, then turned and headed towards the cave where the Redflame Dragon corpse was located.
"Wushuang Immortal Emperor is right; the killing intent of the Emperor Realm expert is something none of us can withstand, let’s leave here as soon as possible!"
White-Haired Fairy watched Fang Bai’s silhouette disappear, then sternly addressed Qingyang Immortal Emperor and the other immortals.
Thus, Qingyang Immortal Emperor, White-Haired Fairy, Fairy Qingxia, and Spirit Thunder Immortal Emperor ascended into the sky and within moments returned to the mountaintop outside, where they exited the concealment formation and flew into the ten-thousand-foot-high sky, focusing downward, monitoring the situation below.
Meanwhile, Fang Bai has once again appeared in the gigantic cave containing the Redflame Dragon corpse.
Fang Bai knows that to claim the Redflame Dragon corpse for himself, he must first exhaust the killing intent contained within its enormous body.
Therefore, Fang Bai once again summoned the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, intending to attack the Redflame Dragon’s corpse with it, thereby stimulating the killing intent it contains.
Simultaneously, Fang Bai also summoned and expanded the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron to shield himself against the strong impact that the Emperor Realm killing intent might exert on him.
Fang Bai understands that in the Nine Dragons Mountain Range, there are many immortals gathered; although this area is very remote and seldom visited by immortals, he must collect the Redflame Dragon corpse within the shortest possible time, otherwise if any immortal senses the commotion here and comes to investigate, conflict will be unavoidable.
Therefore, after making adequate preparations, Fang Bai swung the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, rapidly slashing out dozens of times in an instant.
Dozens of fierce blood rays aimed at the Redflame Dragon’s corpse.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh..."
The sound of dense air tearing rang out as the dozens of blood rays from the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade stimulated the counterattack of the dozens of Emperor Realm killing intents hidden within the Redflame Dragon corpse.
The killing intent from the Emperor Realm Redflame Dragon corpse was very perceptive; the killing intent it releases would target wherever the attack came from.
Hence, with Blood-Drinking Mad Blade in hand, Fang Bai became the target of those dozens of Emperor Realm killing intents.
Dozens of Emperor Realm killing intents, concentrated together to attack Fang Bai, the power was evident.
Fang Bai felt a force capable of destroying the heavens and earth, his scalp tingling as he swiftly hid inside the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron.
