Chapter 819: Situation (2)

Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations

Every emperor’s armor had a unique ability in the hands of the Martial Emperor. Among them, the exclusive ability of the Martial Emperor’s Cape was to form a clone in every realm of martial arts. This clone was like another life of his, and he could not be recognized as a clone.

“In other words, Yan Huagu and I were wrong at the beginning. This demigod who has been hiding behind the scenes and hasn’t revealed himself is not the Martial Emperor’s main body after his rebirth, but a clone that the Martial Emperor had already formed back then. The Martial Emperor didn’t reveal this clone to the public, so no one knows that he actually still has a clone.”

Xiao Shi suddenly realized. He even felt that when the Great Wu Empire was strong, some of the demigods in the Great Wu Empire might be the Martial Emperor’s clones.

What Xiao Shi was puzzled about now was, since the Martial Emperor already had these clones, why was he still looking for a target to be reborn? To a certain extent, these clones were like independent individuals and lives. Even if the Martial Emperor, who was the main body, died, they would not die.

Even if the Martial Emperor died, he could also use these clones to continue trying to break through to the Martial God Realm.

“No. That’s not right! Although these clones are independent individuals and lives, they are completely controlled by the Martial Emperor. Their souls are connected to the Martial Emperor. Therefore, once the Martial Emperor dies under the calamity of the ninth realm, even if these clones don’t die, they will probably be severely injured. And it’s impossible for him to have the chance to break through to the Martial God Realm.”

No one knew about the clones better than him, apart from the Martial Emperor. After all, he had such a clone.

“If that’s the case, after the Martial Emperor died under the calamity of the ninth realm of the Martial Dao, his clones were also severely injured one after another. Perhaps most of the clones died with his main body at that time.

“There were still one or two clones that survived. However, because they were severely injured, they could only lie low and hide behind the scenes. They did not appear for so many years. If that’s the case, the soul that occupied the prince’s body previously must be one of the Martial Emperor’s clones. However, this clone’s body was destroyed and only its soul was left. Therefore, he needs to use the body of the prince to crack my Heavenly Dao!”

Xiao Shi completely understood. Previously, he had been wondering if the soul that occupied the body of the prince was the Martial Emperor. After all, apart from the Martial Emperor, he could not think of anyone else in the world who could occupy the body of the prince.

From the looks of it, everything was done by the Martial Emperor.

Xiao Shi’s expression turned solemn. He realized that the Martial Emperor’s main body was still hiding behind the scenes after his rebirth and had yet to appear. What was taking action now was only the avatar he had left behind back then.

“This clone should be his last clone. The biggest problem now is, how can I find the Martial Emperor’s original body after his rebirth?”

Xiao Shi felt that it was very likely that the Martial Emperor’s main body after his rebirth was not a demigod yet. He had not even become a Daolord or a Sage. This was because be it demigods, Daolords, or Sages, he could search through the rules of heaven and earth, Dao Stars, and domains. He only needed to investigate them one by one and it would be very easy to find him. After all, these would leave a deep mark in the Tianwu Continent.

But if it was someone below the Sage Realm, then there was no way to find it at all. With the Martial Emperor’s ability, even if his main body was only at the Martial Entry-Level after his rebirth, it wouldn’t affect him much. As long as he gathered all the rules of heaven and earth, he could instantly break through to the ninth realm of the Martial Entry-Level.

Finding the Martial Emperor’s original body after his rebirth in the Tianwu Continent was undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack. The only breakthrough point was that he knew the Martial Emperor’s current intention was to gather all the rules of the world.

“Now, the Martial Emperor already has two Heaven and Earth rules. The remaining three are in the hands of me, Demigod Xingkui, and Demigod Mu Wen. Since he wants to gather all the rules of heaven and earth, he will definitely attack us.

“In that case, rather than searching for him like a needle in a haystack, why don’t I wait for him to come to us? Now, he no longer has a clone or a fighter to do things for him. If he wants to deal with us, his reincarnated main body will definitely have to become a demigod to have such ability.”

Xiao Shi narrowed his eyes. He understood that what he had to do next was to quickly tell Demigods Xingkui and Mu Wen about the Martial Emperor and join forces with them. Although he had successfully killed the Martial Emperor’s demigod clone with his own strength, this also exposed his own strength. It would give the Martial Emperor a clear understanding of his strength. This was also his greatest disadvantage.

The Martial Emperor already knew him well enough. However, he knew nothing about the Martial Emperor’s original body after his rebirth. With the Martial Emperor’s shrewdness, if he did not have any means to deal with him, he would definitely not make a move easily.

Therefore, by the time the Martial Emperor attacked, he would definitely have a way to deal with him. Facing this king who controlled an era, an expert who could not even be killed by the calamity of the ninth realm of the Martial Dao,

Xiao Shi did not dare to underestimate or be careless at all. He had to join forces with Demigod Xingkui and Demigod Mu Wen to have a chance of winning.

“Or rather, if I can step into the ninth realm of the Martial Dao before the Martial Emperor takes action, I can also fight him.”

Xiao Shi’s eyes flickered. He knew that with his demigod cultivation, even if he joined forces with Demigod Xingkui and Demigod Mu Wen, they would at most be able to resist the Martial Emperor and not kill him.

If he wanted to kill the Martial Emperor, he had to at least have the strength of a ninth-level martial artist.

Otherwise, even if the three demigods joined forces to deal with the Martial Emperor, the Martial Emperor could choose to break through to the ninth realm immediately if he was no match for them.

At that time, the Martial Emperor would come and kill them.

The Martial Emperor’s concern now was mainly that he wanted to gather the five rules of heaven and earth to break through to the ninth realm. If he did not use these five Rules of Heaven and Earth to reach the ninth realm of the Martial Dao, what awaited him was also death.

Therefore, as long as the Martial Emperor was not forced to a dead end, he wouldn’t break through to the ninth realm so easily. His true goal was still the Martial God above the ninth realm of the Martial Dao, after all.

Just the cultivation of a demigod was only enough to protect himself. It was not enough to resolve the crisis. If he wanted to completely deal with the Martial Emperor, he had to break through to the ninth realm of the Martial Dao. However, it was clearly not easy to break through from a demigod to the ninth realm of martial arts.

Firstly, Xiao Shi knew very little about the ninth realm of the Martial Dao. He did not even know how to break through now.

Secondly, after Xiao Shi broke through to the ninth realm, he would also face the calamity of the ninth realm.

If he could not survive the calamity of the ninth realm of the Martial Dao, he would still die even if he killed the Martial Emperor.

The only thing that was more beneficial at the moment was that the Martial Emperor would not be able to immediately create a new era and a new dynasty to prevent a second ninth realm martial artist from appearing on the Tianwu Continent, even if the Martial Emperor broke through to the ninth realm.

Which meant, once the Martial Emperor became desperate and reached the ninth realm without gathering the five rules of heaven and earth, Xiao Shi did not have to worry that he would not have this chance after the other party reached the ninth realm.

“No matter what, I have to first understand the ninth realm of the Martial Dao. At the very least, I have to know how to break through this realm.”

He could ask the Martial Progenitor about the ninth realm of the Martial Dao. It just so happened that he urgently needed to open the passageway to the Beginner Martial Era.

Once the passage was opened, he would be able to contact the Martial Progenitor. At that time, he might be able to borrow some strength from the Martial Progenitor.
