Chapter 1617: Celestial Demonic Emperor Dies

Under their joint assault, the Violet-Eyed Emperor’s corpse puppet was continuously weakened despite its disabling purple sonic heavenly rule.

Finally, when most of the scales had fallen off, a colossal blast of heavenly rule power managed to singe off a piece of the beast corpse puppet’s flesh.

It bellowed in anger, shaking the entire hall with its voice.

It continued to fire jets of purple light around, but Wu Yu and the demonic emperors dodged. As they wore it down enough, its attacks became correspondingly weaker as well.

A glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel. They were more relaxed now. They just had to keep it up and the beast corpse puppet would be beaten.

But just at this critical juncture, the beast corpse puppet’s violet eyes shot out two beams of purple light. They moved with blistering speed, covering ground in an instant to land squarely on Celestial Meteor, who was a goodly distance away.

Celestial Meteor was skewered clean through, and he exploded along with the void!

Celestial Demonic Emperor did not even have time to react. He had just unleashed his heavenly rule power, and was preparing for the next. But suddenly, these two beams had cut him down thoroughly.

By the time the others reacted, Celestial Demonic Emperor’s body had already disappeared, eradicated thoroughly alongside the void it had occupied. Of course, Celestial Demonic Emperor ceased to exist alongside it.

Celestial Meteor obviously prioritized his own safety, and then spent his spare energy attacking. However, this sudden and violent attack had been more than he had prepared for.

The two bursts of purple light from his eyes could have killed any of them. Perhaps even the Somersault Cloud might not have been quick enough to save Wu Yu.

It had been a random stray beam, that had not been targeted at anybody.

And these two beams of deadly light had drained the last of its energy. Spent, the beast was open to a succession of attacks by the three remaining demonic emperors, as well as Wu Yu and Wu Jun. It was cut down and blown up.

Wu Yu reacted quickly. While the three demonic emperors were still reeling from the loss of Celestial Meteor, he quickly moved to the side and the corpse puppet and harvested it.

This was an eternal demon emperor corpse, even if it was a corpse puppet. They had already torn it to pieces, but this was already a more whole form compared to the blood or Black Sea Grand Emperor tentacle or Apocalyptic Chaos Demon head that Wu Yu had devoured before!

If he could devour it all, it would definitely be of great help to Wu Yu’s cultivation realm. He could more stably beat a 9-heavens demon king.

The remaining three demonic emperors stared spitefully at Wu Yu, regretting that they themselves had not thought of the same thing.

However, the loss of Celestial Meteor had indeed shocked them.

He was one of the stronger ones amongst their number, and had always moved with caution. To think that he would die in an accident here, and not even a scrap of his body left......

It sent a cold shiver down their spines.

The Eternal Emperor Tomb was such a dangerous place. Wu Yu had killed Unending Crepuscular Sea, and now Celestial Meteor was dead . The three of them were also limping from injuries, especially Olden Golden Mountain.

Which meant that the demonic emperors had less than half their initial strength remaining.

In contrast, it was Wu Yu and Wu Jun who were quite well-off. Wu Yu himself had even grown stronger, thanks to the chronowarp heavenly rule he had picked up in the chamber.

Now Wu Yu and Wu Jun were not afraid of facing the three.

Of course, Wu Yu could not go wipe them out immediately either. They had only made it into the front hall. There were more halls awaiting them, and definitely more unimaginable dangers.

If not for the six of them teaming up, they would have paid an even higher price when taking down the Violet-Eyed Emperor.

Therefore, they needed each other for now.

As Wu Yu walked away with the corpse, the three demonic emperors obviously argued. They could not allow him to just waltz away with it.

"That corpse belongs to all of us. Hand it over!" Dignified Lava Beast snapped angrily.

Perpetual World Tree nodded gravely. "Indeed. We can divide it up, and perhaps someone can grow strong enough to increase his cultivation realm. It increases our chances of survival!"


The three demonic emperors surrounded Wu Yu urgently, trying to bully him into giving it up.

However, Wu Yu would not hand over what he had already managed to secure. Even if he took it out, they would not dare to devour it on the spot.

Who knew what the others might do while one was devouring and vulnerable?

If they were snuck up on while cultivating, the consequences would be disastrous.

Therefore, Wu Yu said coolly: "We can divide up the corpse evenly later. Even if I take it out now, you wouldn’t dare to devour it on the spot, would you? Besides, devouring an eternal demon emperor corpse could take tens of thousands of years. Something could happen at any time."

The Eternal Emperor Tomb and Graveguarding Palace were just too unpredictable.

They had only been in here for a few short decades, and so much had already happened!

In this place, danger could appear at any time, from any place. If they devoured an eternal demon emperor corpse here, they would be dead many times over.

Wu Yu’s words gave them pause, and they had to concede the truth of it. They definitely could not cultivate here.

But they still wanted to hold a piece of the eternal demon emperor corpse to feel better.

However, Wu Yu would not back down. "If you each hold a part and die along the way, wouldn’t it be wasted? Best keep it on me. In any case, you lot still have a bronze pendant, don’t you?"

Wu Jun backed him up as well. "Indeed. By the time we need the pendant, it might well be in a safe place. At that time, you hand over the pendant, and we hand over the corpse. Fair deal, isn’t it?"

The three demonic emperors were not happy about this. They had also helped to take down Violet-Eyed Emperor’s corpse puppet,and one of them had even died in the process. They would not be content walking away empty-handed.

But they couldn’t do anything to Wu Yu either!

Here in Graveguarding Palace, Wu Yu could run to his heart’s content, and they couldn’t catch him.

If they could not even keep him pinned in a place as confined as white jade platform, then this was an even less likely stage.

Therefore, they could only give up on their demands, unwilling as they were.

Dignified Lava Beast snarled: "Then see that you keep your word. Otherwise, we will never hand over the bronze pendant!"

With this ultimatum, there was nothing else to be said about the eternal demon emperor corpse.

Wu Yu could not possibly devour now either. If he did, Wu Jun could not stand up against them alone. Even if Wu Yu devoured quickly, it was not something he could finish in a jiffy.

"The door behind us has already closed."

Wu Jun noted. Their faces tightened.

The entrance closed. This meant that they were again being led on, deeper.

What in the world was the Graveguarding Palace?

They could not even leave if they wanted to now. There was only one way onwards.

"Let’s go then. Change waits for no man."

Wu Yu prompted the demonic emperors. Keeping their distance, both parties moved deeper into the Graveguarding Palace.

The front hall of Graveguarding Palace was so vast that they took many days of travel just to reach the next black door.

Like the previous one, this one was also ajar. The Violet-Eyed Emperor corpse puppet had been guarding the front hall. And on this door, bloody words were again written: "Graveguarding Palace, Middle Hall!"

This meant that there was probably still a back hall afterwards.

"Let’s go then."

Wu Yu’s 1 million doppelgangers could not be used yet. The purple sonic heavenly rule had not yet worn off, and they would only be able to use their heavenly rule powers after some time.

However, this was not that big a problem, especially when compared to unknown dangers that might pop up if they lingered.

Clearly, the Graveguarding Palace’s designer intended for those within to keep moving forward, if the sealed door behind them was anything to go by. It was always a wise decision to follow the designer’s will.

The five remaining members moved through the door.

If they were given a choice, three demonic emperors would have preferred to leave this place immediately. But unfortunately no such choice was available, and they had no option but to tough it out.
