Chapter 5842: Peace?
Although this wasnât the real tree, it seemed enough for Li Qiye to dominate any individual overlord.
The presence of the five made emperors tremble. They were beings at a whole other level even for the strongest emperors, capable of deciding everyoneâs fate except Li Qiye. Because of this, they had reigned in the shadows. None could truly escape their will.
âDark Crow.â Primal Ancestor glared at Li Qiye.
The others looked as serious as could be due to the gravity of the situation. If they could kill Li Qiye, they would enjoy a delicious feast in both him and the current living beings. Losing meant potentially being devoured by Li Qiye and all of their past patience and efforts would be in vain.
Of course, they have yet to display their true strength. The thing on their mind right now was calculating and deducing Li Qiyeâs true strength.
âWasnât easy getting all of you to show up.â Li Qiye smiled.
âWe must show up for the peace of the world.â Dao Ancestor had a transcending appearance. Those who didnât know his past would think that he was a visiting immortal from another realm.
âOh, is that why youâre here?â Li Qiye chuckled.
âOf course.â Dao Ancestor always spoke calmly regardless of the situation.
âHahaha, I canât hold it.â Lord of Derivation, unlike the others, pointed at Dao Ancestor and laughed: âYou hairy old fool, Iâm impressed that you can say this crap with a straight face.â
Dao Ancestor glared at him in response.
âIâm impressed as well, for the peace of the world? The troubles in this world are mere waves on the river of time. Emperors can cause a few bigger ones, but true discord comes from supreme overlords and epoch lords.â Li Qiye nodded.
âThink of those who sacrificed their epochs to forge a weapon against the heaven only to fail. And letâs pretend thereâs someone with a dao heart strong enough to defeat the high heaven, whatâs next?â Li Qiye asked.
The group exchanged glances.
âGo on.â Stonesplitter said.
âWhat would you do if you could replace the high heaven?â Li Qiye asked.
The group hasnât quite thought about this because they merely focused on surviving, never taking a single risk.
âHahaha, I will do what the villainous heaven hasnât done, create the most evil and monstrous creature. Perhaps it will kill and replace me one day, wouldnât that be fun, hahaha...â Derivation laughed.
Listeners using the mirror were at a loss for words.
âI will surpass and do better.â Dao Ancestor said.
Li Qiye shook his head and said: âIn this hypothetical scenario, you cannot do better. Your dao heart and pursuit have determined your limit. A so-called high heaven made out of you is only a second-rate one. The current one is eternal and indestructible due to its indomitable dao heart, always the same after each reset.â
âDust to dust, everything is returned to the world.â Li Qiye said: âIt is greedless, something truly unique in history, and certainly worthy of its position. However, this doesnât change the fact that it has destroyed countless epochs and lives. Your group and mine are certainly sources of disasters, but we are just drops in the ocean, nothing compared to the villainous heaven.â
They didnât expect the conversation to flow like this.
âThen what weâve done isnât quite wrong.â Primal said coldly with a faint smile.
âHaha, right or wrong, who gives a damn? We are the lords of everything, let the ants live or kill them, whatâs not permissible?â Derivation laughed heartily.
