Chapter 34 Battle Of The Semi-Grand Emperors


    The battle in the sky above the Ye family escalated further.


    The battle between two Ninth-grade Pre-Emperors and one Eighth-grade Pre-Emperor had escalated to a battle between two Semi-Grand Emperors and a Ninth-grade Pre-Emperor.


    A battle that involved two Semi-Grand Emperors was extremely rare in the history of the continent.


    The Supreme Grand Patriarch saw Patriarch Yuwen’s cultivation rising, but he didn’t stop him. Instead, he waited for him to become a Semi-Grand Emperor.


    Patriarch Yuwen looked at the Supreme Grand Patriarch and said, “Ye Zhen, great. The three of us won’t be able to live.”


    The Supreme Grand Patriarch laughed heartily, “Isn’t that great? It’s not bad to be able to take you two old dogs with me before I die.”


    “But other people are buried with humans, while I’m buried with two old dogs. It’s a bit of inauspicious,” the Supreme Grand


    Patriarch said.


    Patriarch Yuwen did not hold back either. “Ye Zhen, you used to be a genius. Judging from your aura of a Semi-Grand Emperor, I guess you can step into the Great Emperor realm without the blood essence of a Grand Emperor, right?”


    “How was it? Starting to regret it?”


    The Supreme Grand Patriarch said


    indifferently, “Regret? I’ve lived for tens of thousands of years, when have I ever regretted it? The only thing I regret is letting you kill the disciples of my family.”


    Patriarch Yuwen snorted and did not bother to explain.


    In the next moment, a ten thousand meters avatar appeared behind Patriarch Yuwen.


    The Infinite Dharma Wheel bearing the holy aura shot out countless rays of golden light towards the Supreme Grand Patriarch.


    When the Supreme Grand Elder saw that Patriarch Yuwen had made his move, he did not say anything more. The thunderclouds in the sky simply struck down lightning bolts. Patriarch Shentu did not back down either. Although he was only at the peak of the Ninth-grade Pre-Emperor after using his secret technique, he was not that weak.


    It was true that he couldn’t compare to a Semi-Grand Emperor, but it didn’t mean that a peak Ninth-grade Pre-Emperor couldn’t do anything to a Semi-Grand Emperor.


    Another blood-red giant blade crossed the sky and earth, charging towards the Supreme Grand Patriarch.


    A Semi-Grand Emperor working together with a peak-stage Ninth-grade Pre-Emperor was a huge threat to the Supreme Grand Patriarch.


    Moreover, the Supreme Grand Patriarch was


    the first to use the secret technique to increase his realm, and it had been a while since he used it.


    The increment gained from the secret technique started to fade, and the after-effect


    started to appear. The Supreme Grand Patriarch’s Semi-Grand Emperor realm started to fall..


    The situation began to reverse in an instant.


    Patriarch Yuwen and Patriarch Shentu had


    already begun to suppress the Supreme Grand


    Patriarch.


    “Good, good! Again, again! Old dog Yuwen, it’s great to have you die with me today!” the Supreme Grand Patriarch bellowed.


    Even though the after-effects were starting to appear, the Supreme Grand Patriarch was still


    looking fine.


    It was as if he was not affected by the after-effects. The lightning in his hand did not weaken at all as it continued to attack


    Patriarch Yuwen and Patriarch Shentu.


    “Ye Zhen, you’re still so stubborn, the after-effects of the secret technique should be in effect already by now,” Patriarch Yuwen


    said.


    Patriarch Shentu also said, “Ye Zhen! You’re indeed very strong, but this time, you’ve


    fought the two of us alone. Such a battle result is already extremely good! It’s time for


    the curtain call!”


    The Supreme Grand Patriarch snorted and


    said, “Curtain call? Even if I suffer from the after-effects, I won’t die before you! You two old dogs, hand over your life!”


    The Supreme Grand Patriarch’s body was surrounded by golden divine lightning as he charged towards the other two patriarchs. Patriarch Yuwen and Patriarch Shentu did not


    dodge. They waved their fists and hurled


    punches at him.


    Although the three of them had used secret


    techniques to increase their realms, they had


    not replenished their depleting spiritual


    energy.


    The three of them had begun to resolve in


    hand-to-hand combat.


    …


    The chief and the patriarch of the Lin family


    had been watching the battle above the Ye


    family. Chief Lin frowned and asked, “Patriarch, the three of them have used their secret techniques. The patriarch of the Ye and


    Yuwen families had even reached the Semi-Grand Emperor realm. When their cultivation levels drop, it will be the time for


    them to die.”


    “If the Ye family still has a backup plan, why


    would the patriarch of the Ye family use such a secret technique?”


    Patriarch Lin was also a little confused, “Let’s wait and see. The divination can’t be wrong. The Ye family must have a way to cure the after-effects.’


    “I don’t think there’s anyone other than the


    Grand Emperor who can cure the after-effects of secret technique. Moreover, only a Grand Emperor who is proficient in Medicinal Dao can cure it,” Chief Lin said.


    “According to what I know, there’s a Royal Sacred Land near the Ye family. Coincidentally, the Royal Saint Ruler is an expert in Medicinal Dao. Could he be the Ye family’s backup plan?”


    Patriarch Lin shook his head slightly and said,


    “If it’s the Royal Saint Ruler, I wouldn’t say


    such things. I’m afraid there’s someone else behind the Ye family.”


    Chief Lin sighed and continued to watch the battle of Semi-Grand Emperors as he was unable to meet his questions with answers.


    “Semi-Grand Emperor realm… That’s quite terrifying. The Ye and Yuwen family’s patriarchs are probably not far from the


    First-grade Grand Emperor realm,” Chief Lin sighed.


    Patriarch Lin agreed, “Patriarch Ye is indeed a


    genius. As for Patriarch Yuwen, he is still slightly inferior. If not for Patriarch Shentu’s interference, Patriarch Yuwen would definitely lose.”


    Amongst the Li family’s army, Chief Li noticed that the Supreme Grand Patriarch and Patriarch Yuwen used their respective secret


    technique.


    “Patriarch, the three of them have already used their secret techniques. Right now, they are already arrows at the end of their flight!” Chief Li said excitedly. Originally, due to Patriarch Yuwen and Patriarch Shentu, the Li family might only be


    able to loot a small portion of the Ye family’s resources, but now, once the battle between the three of them ended, regardless of the outcome, Patriarch Yuwen and Patriarch Shentu would be finished.


    At that time, if the Lin family did not make a


    move, the Li family could at least take over 80% of the Ye family’s resources. If they were lucky, they could even annex the Yuwen family and the Shentu family altogether. Even if the Lin family wanted a share of the


    profits, the Li family would also be able to obtain endless benefits.


    Sending troops to the Ye family was the wisest decision in ten thousand years. Patriarch Li’s face was ruddy, looking great.


    He said, “That’s right. The three of them used the secret technique. They are already dead. Our family will rise.”


    Taking over the resources of the Ye, Yuwen, and Shentu families would undoubtedly be a huge improvement for the Li family! Other than the Li family, some sects and


    families that were not part of the five major families, and even the rogue cultivators on the continent, began to show interest in the


    Ye family.


    All the sects with Grand Saints and Pre-Emperors also began to rush in the direction of the Ye family.


    Rogue cultivators who had reached the Saint


    stage and weren’t afraid of death also started


    to move towards the Ye family.


    They all wanted a share of the highly sought


    Ye family resources.


    They ought to gain benefits in the battle of Semi-Grand Emperors.
