Yang Qi and the other two had no idea that the Quetzalcoatl Palace had already set their sights on them. At this moment, they had just moved away from the battlefield where the fighting had taken place, and had been carefully erasing all traces of themselves along the way.
Emperor Wu Shi looked at Yang Qi and Emperor Ji Yan in front of him and said slowly, "We have traveled through time and space many times and erased all traces along the way. It should not be easy for the strong men from Quetzalcoatl Palace to track us."
Hearing this, Yang Qi and Emperor Ji Yan nodded slightly. In addition to being powerful, Emperor Wu Shi's method of erasing traces is also extremely impressive. After all, Emperor Wu Shi encountered many dangers during his growth. Many times, he faced opponents whose strength far exceeded his. At this time, he was no match for them in a head-on fight and could only escape. If you want to escape from the hands of a strong man, in addition to escaping on the spot, the most important thing is not to be tracked by the enemy, otherwise even if you escape once by chance, you will not be so lucky the second time.
Therefore, Emperor Wu Shi is also very experienced in erasing traces, even better than Emperor Yang Qi and Emperor Ji Yan.
"This time, I was negligent. I didn't expect that the low-level Martial Emperors I killed earlier had a late-stage Nine-Star Martial Emperor behind them, which almost put us in danger." Emperor Ji Yan paused for a moment and continued, "Although the crisis has been temporarily resolved, the Feathered Serpent Palace will definitely not let it go."
“Fellow Daoist Ji Yan, there is no need to blame yourself. Emperor Teng Zhong and the cultivator who fell before are father and son. No matter how careful you are, you will be exposed once the other party gets close to you.” Yang Qi spoke to comfort him.
This was not Yang Qi comforting Emperor Ji Yan, but he knew clearly that the induction of the father-son relationship was quite sharp, not only the induction of cause and effect, but also the induction of blood. Under the double induction, even if Emperor Ji Yan was careful, as long as the distance between the two sides was shortened, he would be sensed by Emperor Teng Zhong.
Therefore, Emperor Ji Yan really cannot be blamed for this matter. If it was Yang Qi or even Emperor Wu Shi who took action, the result would probably be the same, and it would still attract Emperor Teng Zhong.
Emperor Wu Shi looked at Emperor Ji Yan and slowly said, "Daoyou Ji Yan, what are your plans next?"
Emperor Ji Yan is more familiar with the Tianhai Realm, and is also very clear about the strength of the Quetzalcoatl Palace. Now the Quetzalcoatl Palace will definitely search for them everywhere. In this case, it is obviously more suitable for Emperor Ji Yan to decide the next course of action than for Yang Qi and Emperor Wu Shi, two outsiders.
"Originally, I suggested going to the area controlled by Quetzalcoatl Palace, hoping to catch Quetzalcoatl off guard and avoid exposing us too early. However, after what happened this time, I'm afraid we won't be able to hide for long in the area controlled by Quetzalcoatl Palace." Emperor Ji Yan paused for a moment and continued, "I think that we should quickly investigate some relatively dangerous areas, check the locations selected by other practitioners, and then leave this area and go to the areas controlled by the other two major forces."
Hearing what Emperor Ji Yan said, Yang Qi and Emperor Wu Shi looked at each other and nodded. Although the Quetzalcoatl Palace would definitely search for them with all their might because of the killing of Emperor Teng Zhong, they had already wiped out the remaining traces, so they didn't have to worry about being found by the practitioners of the Quetzalcoatl Palace in the short term.
In this way, they did not need to leave this area in a hurry. After all, the appearance of Emperor Tengzhong was completely unexpected. If they left this area directly at this time, they would have to readjust their plans, wasting a lot of time and energy. Besides, with the strength of the three of them, even if they really faced the top leaders of Quetzalcoatl Palace, they would be able to survive, so they did not need to worry too much about their own safety.
"In that case, let's continue according to our previous plan." Emperor Wu Shi said in a deep voice.
Immediately, the three of them traveled through time and space again and went to another relatively dangerous place to investigate. While Yang Qi and the other two continued to act, the strong men of the Quetzalcoatl Palace had already arrived at the place where Emperor Teng Zhong fell.
Emperor Tengfeng carefully surveyed the battlefield, then frowned slightly and said, "In addition to Emperor Tengzhong's aura, there are three other auras. Judging from the remaining might, one seems to have the aura of a peak Martial Emperor, and another seems to have the aura of an early Nine-Star Martial Emperor."
The traces of the battlefield had long been deliberately erased by Emperor Wu Shi and his two companions, but the battlefield was quite large and the residual aura was very complex, making it impossible to completely erase them. After careful sensing, Emperor Teng Feng still discovered some useful information.
"Could it be that a strong man at the peak level of Martial Emperor has taken action?" Emperor Tengshan's expression changed slightly.
The three late-stage Nine-star Martial Emperors were not a big problem. After all, Emperor Tengfeng, the peak Martial Emperor, had already made his move. Even if he directly dealt with the three late-stage Nine-star Martial Emperors, it would not be difficult. But if it came to the peak Martial Emperors, the situation would be different. A peak Martial Emperor plus two or three late-stage Nine-star Martial Emperors, even Emperor Tengshan, two deputy palace masters, and even Emperor Tengfeng might not be able to stop them.
“He should not be at the peak of Martial Emperor. He is just a Nine-Star Martial Emperor in the late stage who can burst out the power of the peak level of Martial Emperor. Because of the remaining original fluctuations at the scene, he has not reached the peak level of Martial Emperor.” Emperor Tengfeng shook his head slightly.
There is a basic threshold for the origin that can be mobilized by the peak Martial Emperor, but the fluctuations of the origin left at the scene obviously did not reach the level that the peak Martial Emperor cultivator could mobilize. In other words, the cultivator who took action was most likely not a peak Martial Emperor cultivator. After all, he had already exposed his peak Martial Emperor strength, so there was no need to hide the fact that he was a peak Martial Emperor cultivator.
Besides, Emperor Teng Zhong's own strength is not weak. He can distinguish between a peak Martial Emperor and a late Nine-Star Martial Emperor. Even if the peak Martial Emperor practitioner used some means to hide his aura, it would be impossible to hide it from a veteran strongman like Emperor Teng Zhong.
Hearing the words of Emperor Tengfeng, Emperor Tengshan and the other two beside him couldn't help but nodded slightly.
"Senior Tengfeng, what's going on with the aura of the early Nine-Star Martial Emperor?" Emperor Tengshan looked at Emperor Tengfeng and said.
They could understand that there were no cultivators at the peak of the Martial Emperor level, but what about the aura of the early Nine-Star Martial Emperor among the residual aura? A battle that could kill Emperor Teng Zhong was not something that a cultivator at the early Nine-Star Martial Emperor could participate in. If such a cultivator participated in it, even if Emperor Teng Zhong was no match for the enemy, it would definitely not be difficult to kill a cultivator at the early Nine-Star Martial Emperor under the enemy's attack.
