More than a month passed.
At the connection point between the Purple Profound Realm and the Tianyuan Realm, wars frequently erupted.
Many people crossed the boundary. Among them were many living beings who had descended from the Earth Immortal Realm, traveling countless millions of li from the Purple Profound Realm to the Tianyuan Realm.
Each of these people had their own methods. They had learned of the news that a Quasi-Emperor had achieved Emperorship in the Xuanmo Starfield some time ago.
One person achieving Emperorship—this was no small news. It was enough to cause a huge wave. As long as one connected this to the time of Fang Han's descent to the lower realm, it wasn't hard to deduce the connection between the person who achieved Emperorship in the Xuanmo Starfield and Fang Han.
At this time, many people rushed to the Tianyuan Realm.
Wanting to find out just who it was that achieved Emperorship in the Purple Profound Realm.
But to their surprise, after asking around in the Tianyuan Realm for a long time, some ordinary cultivators had no idea who had crossed the boundary and achieved Emperorship in the Purple Profound Realm.
Most cultivators, upon learning that someone from their own world had actually achieved Emperorship in another world, were all extremely excited. They even turned around and asked if they knew who it was.
This left many people from the Earth Immortal Realm stunned.
What in the world was going on? Someone from your world achieved Emperorship in the Purple Profound Realm, and you, the living beings of the Tianyuan Realm, didn't get the news immediately? You don't even know you have one more Great Emperor?
This couldn't be blamed on them.
After Meng Qingzhi achieved Emperorship, he was not as high-profile as the Dragon Emperor. He merely brought Fang Han quietly to Great Desolate City, watched Fang Han buy news from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, then returned to the Purple Profound Realm to stir up trouble.
The time he spent in the Tianyuan Realm after achieving Emperorship added up to less than two shichen. He hadn't moved about in the Tianyuan Realm. If anyone in the outside world knew Meng Qingzhi had achieved Emperorship, it would be a ghost.
…
"The one who achieved Emperorship, who is it?"
Inside a magnificent jade chariot, the man in white robes sat, frowning. He held a Jade Slip, which recorded a leaderboard named the Emperor-Ascendant Leaderboard.
As the ancient saying goes, "In every realm, follow the laws of Heaven and Earth."
After coming to the Tianyuan Realm, they hadn't found out much else, but the three words "Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets" were thundering in their ears. This Emperor-Ascendant Leaderboard was in almost everyone's hands. It was hard for them not to know about it.
On the Emperor-Ascendant Leaderboard, only the Dragon Emperor, ranked fourth, had surpassed the three before him and achieved Emperorship first. The list then automatically filled in, and another Quasi-Emperor moved up.
The Dragon Emperor had indeed achieved Emperorship in the Purple Profound Realm. But his location of achieving Emperorship was no secret in the Purple Profound Realm either; it wasn't in the Xuanmo Starfield at all.
This meant there was another existence, whose name was not on the Emperor-Ascendant Leaderboard, who had surpassed all other Quasi-Emperors. Under everyone's noses, he had suddenly emerged and achieved Emperorship!
If they couldn't find this person, then finding Fang Han would be nothing more than a fool's dream.
"Sacred Son."
The middle-aged Quasi-Emperor next to the man in white robes was also holding a Jade Slip. He lowered his head in thought. "Do you think the existence who fought the Great Emperor of Fuyun Mountain earlier could be related to Fang Han?"
"The aura of the Fang Clan's cultivation method was leaking from his body. That's impossible to hide. Once he made a move, all his trump cards were exposed."
"Of course... one cannot rule out that the Great Emperor, who acted deliberately, used a Fang Clan divine ability to confuse us."
"You suspect that person is Fang Han?" the man in white robes said coldly.
This speculation was absurd. No matter how heaven-defying Fang Han was, could he suddenly achieve Emperorship? That was preposterous.
"No."
The middle-aged Quasi-Emperor shook his head. "I suspect he has an unclear relationship with the Fang Clan. After all, the moment he acted, he targeted Fuyun Mountain, Dunshi Immortal Palace, and Taixu Mountain. It's hard to say there isn't something fishy going on!"
In the Earth Immortal Realm, everyone knew the powers that annihilated the Fang Clan were a coalition of three parties, led by Fuyun Mountain, which buried the entire Fang Clan. Of the hundreds of thousands of Fang clansmen, only Fang Han and his Dao Protector escaped with their lives.
Now, in the Purple Profound Realm, a Great Emperor of unknown identity, leaking the aura of a Fang Clan cultivation method, was targeting these three powers. It was hard not to overthink it.
Tok! Tok! Tok!
The man in white robes put away the Jade Slip, his expression pensive. He tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest, his eyes half-closed, and said slowly, "You mean to say, Fang Han likely did not fall into the hands of the one who achieved Emperorship in the Xuanmo Starfield... but fell into the hands of another Great Emperor?"
"That possibility cannot be ruled out!" the middle-aged Quasi-Emperor said gravely.
"Imitating a cultivation method's aura is too simple for a Great Emperor. As long as Fang Han handed over a part of the Fang Clan's cultivation method, a Great Emperor could learn it quickly. This is the benefit of a high cultivation point. With a powerful foundation, learning some basic divine abilities requires only a glance to fully comprehend. And the power unleashed might even be more profound than that of the person who created the cultivation method!"
"If that's the case, things have become complicated," the man in white robes muttered to himself.
The strength of that Great Emperor from Fuyun Mountain was not weak. Among all Great Emperors, he was a top-tier figure. Even if he encountered an irresistible existence, he should have been able to last for some time, not lose so miserably.
But the result was that he lost, and he lost badly.
He didn't even last a single shichen before being nailed dead in the void.
From this, one could see the strength of the Great Emperor who acted. Among the Great Emperors, he had likely already reached the extreme!
What's even more terrifying... is that the Great Emperor of Fuyun Mountain, clearly knowing he was no match, still did not choose to flee!
Why?
Was the Fuyun Mountain Great Emperor an idiot? Knowing he couldn't win but still fighting to the death?
That was obviously impossible!
"If the Fuyun Mountain Great Emperor's mind wasn't muddled, then it must be that he couldn't escape at all!
"And an existence that can stop a Great Emperor must also be a Great Emperor!
"In other words, there was another Great Emperor in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity!
"A mere Fang Han, with the Fang Clan already annihilated, can still involve two Great Emperors. It's truly spine-chilling."
"How on earth did Fang Han do it?" the man in white robes thought.
If it were him, he asked himself, he probably couldn't have achieved this. It was too terrifying. He had only been in the lower realm for ten days, yet he had already roped in two Great Emperors.
Could it be he gave away his inheritance? That was the only possibility that could make two Great Emperors disregard everything to oppose three massive powers, even knowing those powers had backing in the Earth Immortal Realm.
"Sacred Son, the inheritance in Fang Han's hands, could it be..." The middle-aged Quasi-Emperor's face was grim.
Clearly, he and his Sacred Son had thought of the same thing.
"He would never hand over his own inheritance. That is his everything. Without the inheritance, he loses even the last chance to turn the tables!"
The man in white robes stood up, his eyes opening, a cold glint flashing through. He looked outside the chariot and said decisively, "There must be a secret hidden here that we don't know!"
"But..."
The middle-aged Quasi-Emperor said helplessly, "This matter involves two Great Emperors. I'm afraid with our current strength, we simply cannot contend with them!"
If the spatial passage was still intact, never mind two Great Emperors—even if twenty Great Emperors stood before him, he would dare to challenge them. After all, Yuxu Palace stood behind him, and Yuxu Palace had a supreme True Immortal presiding over it.
But now the spatial passage was gone. Yuxu Palace was just an empty name.
If they really confronted two Great Emperors, their end would be tragic. Those two dared to move against Fuyun Mountain, Dunshi Immortal Palace, and Taixu Mountain. Would they care about one more Yuxu Palace?
"Doesn't this realm have a Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets?"
In the man in white robes' hand, a Jade Slip rose, glowing softly. Its contents appeared in the void. This was another leaderboard—the Myriad Races' Prodigy Leaderboard.
"An all-knowing existence... he should know Fang Han's whereabouts, right?" the man in white robes said softly.
Relying on themselves to track Fang Han's whereabouts, they probably wouldn't have any leads even after several hundred or several thousand years.
Now, a ready-made opportunity had presented itself.
Only someone whose brain wasn't working right would not use it.
