Master of the Demon Emperor-Chapter 745: Ancestor Royal Power
After entering The Gate of Misfortune, Su Yie was overwhelmed by a blinding light, while at the same time he felt his flesh being squeezed by the forces of time and space, which was quite uncomfortable.
Shi Er was still holding onto his wrist, preventing him from being sucked away by the power of time and space.
About ten breaths passed.
It made Su Yie feel as though he had endured years of torment.
When the surrounding forces of time and space dissipated, his vision also returned.
What came into his view was a set of ghastly white bones, he was not frightened, but his brows furrowed instead.
Looking along his gaze, the boundless void ahead was strewn with the skeletons of various creatures, interspersed with meteoroids in shades of white and black.
Dead silence!
Completely devoid of life!
Su Yie subconsciously swept his Divine Sense around, extending it to its utmost with the cultivation of the Supreme Lord of Infinity, but he failed to find any trace of living beings, not even planets.
Shi Er spoke up, "This is the space-time within The Gate of Misfortune. I have been here before, and I almost fell victim to the attack of Three Thousand Royal Power."
Bringing up this matter, he couldn't help grinding his teeth, his eyes full of murderous intent.
Su Yie asked, "Does this space-time also have many divisions? Does Three Thousand Royal Power each control a piece of space-time?"
Even Emperor Su's Sect did not have a detailed understanding of the internal space-time of The Gate of Misfortune or The Gate of the Great Dao.
Hongmeng Chaos's perception of The Gate of the Great Dao was danger, while the impression from the Origin Plane was opportunity, with none able to fully comprehend everything within The Gate of the Great Dao.
Even Shi Er had many places he had not visited.
Shi Er pondered, "Perhaps so, I am not clear on it either, we best make haste."
Su Yie flipped his right hand, revealing a bead in his palm.
It appeared like a glass marble, the size of a pigeon's egg, with a thread of light inside; it was a wisp of Su Lingding's wraith.
As soon as the Soul Bead appeared, it began to tremble.
Su Yie could feel the direction it was guiding him, and he immediately flew off.
Shi Er closely followed him.
The two flew without revealing their aura, their speed reaching Su Yie's limit.
They flew for half an hour, yet with the speed of the Supreme Lord of Infinity, they still had not reached their destination.
Fortunately, they encountered neither Three Thousand Royal Power.
Nor any of the Royal Soldiers.
Shi Er muttered, "This is really strange, when I came here before, they swooped over like they were insane. Why is it so quiet this time?"
Su Yie's lips curled up as he said, "Maybe I have better character than you?"
Shi Er gave him a disdainful look and said, "Are you even human? You're a Demon! And I'm not human either!"
Su Yie couldn't be bothered to argue with him, it was pointless.
They continued moving forward.
They flew for another hour or so.
They passed through space-time one after another, each universe filled with innumerable skeletons, all entwined by the causality of space-time, some had wandered into The Gate of Misfortune by mistake, others had been captured by Three Thousand Royal Power.
It was a veritable purgatory.
Suddenly, Shi Er stopped Su Yie, his face grim, "Danger ahead!"
Danger?
Su Yie narrowed his eyes, why hadn't he sensed it?
Just then, a strong unease surged from the bottom of his heart.
He inwardly gasped.
Could it be that Shi Er's senses were sharper than his Great Celestial Devouring Technique?
But that was to be expected, Shi Er was far stronger than him.
All around was a dim expanse of void, and this area's bones and meteorites, relatively speaking, were fewer. The space rippled, like the surface of a lake struck by many stones.
Figures clad in Bone-Plated Iron Armor tore through the space, stepping out slowly.
There were as many as five thousand!
They were ten zhang tall, their bodies charred black like mummified corpses, their lower halves resembling equine bodies, with iron armors adorned with bones like knights from Hell.
Each held a white bone greatsword, circling in layer upon layer, surrounding Su Yie and his companion.
"Royal Soldiers!"
Shi Er let out a cold snort, and with a wave of his right hand, five thousand Royal Soldiers instantly shattered to pieces, vanishing into dust and smoke.
It all happened too fast for Su Yie to react.
He had thought there would be an intense battle!
How could it have ended so swiftly!
However, he noticed that Shi Er's face remained dark and grim.
One after another, the Royal Soldiers reappeared, tearing through space, utterly unrestrained, like thousands upon thousands of horses stampeding forward.
Five thousand!
Fifty thousand!
Five hundred thousand!
Five million!
Fifty million!
The densely packed Royal Soldiers spread across space-time, surrounding Su Yie and his company without leaving any gaps!
Su Yie's eyelids twitched. These Royal Soldiers looked exactly alike, but their strength varied. The weakest were just at the Realm of the Supreme Great Dao, while the strongest far surpassed Su Yie, with some comparable to Hongmeng Divine Spirits!
"Shi Er! You dare to barge into The Gate of Misfortune again! Truly seeking death!"
A furious shout came, and following the direction of the sound, Su Yie saw a monarch.
This monarch was a hundred zhang tall, dressed in a black robe, with blood-red hair dancing wildly, a face as gaunt as a skull, fierce and savage eyes, and an intimidating presence.
Shi Er gave him a glance and said, "And what are you?"
"I am Bloodkill Monarch!"
The monarch roared furiously, outraged that Shi Er did not recognize him!
Shi Er scoffed with disdain, his figure flickered and turned into a black tornado, with Su Yie at the eye of the storm, rapidly expanding and ravaging the Royal Soldiers.
The Bloodkill Monarch was shocked. Without needing his command, fifty million Royal Soldiers rushed towards Shi Er, like carps crossing the river, a magnificent sight.
"Hahahaha! You ants! All of you shall be devoured by me!"
Shi Er laughed wildly, unbridled and inexorable.
Su Yie looked up, watching the Royal Soldiers being swept up into the tornado, and pondered seriously.
He couldn't see the shapes of the Royal Soldiers at all, much less locate Shi Er.
Such unimaginable power left him in awe.
"No wonder this fellow could easily massacre the Origin Plane in the future. If this is unleashed, who could withstand it?"
Su Yie sighed inwardly. Seeing Shi Er fighting on his behalf, he also felt some emotion.
But in his previous life, Emperor Su had given him a task, which was to overcome Shi Er and wash away the shame of defeat.
"Shi Er! How can you possibly..."
Bloodkill Monarch screamed in horror, but before he could finish, his voice abruptly stopped.
Fifty million Royal Soldiers, along with the Bloodkill Monarch, were all utterly annihilated!
The storm ceased, and Shi Er appeared beside him, casually saying, "Let's go."
Su Yie nodded and continued forward.
Shi Er followed closely behind.
As Su Yie flew, he asked, "How many Royal Soldiers are there exactly?"
Shi Er replied, "Three Thousand Royal Power is undying, thus the Royal Soldiers are endless."
"To be precise, as long as the progenitor monarch of Royal Power remains indestructible, the Three Thousand Royal Power and the Royal Soldiers will continue to be born ceaselessly."
The progenitor monarch of Royal Power!
Su Yie frowned and asked again, "Compared with the progenitor monarch of Royal Power, who is stronger?"
Shi Er pondered and said, "Not sure. A long time ago, when I was still weak, even the fifth-ranked monarch seemed far less formidable, and it is said that all the monarchs together were no match for the progenitor monarch of Royal Power."
Su Yie's frown deepened.
There was a tinge of doubt in Shi Er's tone!
Could the progenitor monarch of Royal Power really be that powerful?
Su Yie thought sinisterly. If he could forcibly invite the progenitor monarch of Royal Power and then erase him, would The Gate of Misfortune collapse as a result?
