There was an endless debate within the Celestial Court.
âHurry up and get the Emperor to intervene. Li Qingshan canât die. Heâs the hope of the Celestial Court,â A Crimson Immortal roar.
âThe Ziwei Emperor has entered the endless void to enlightenment. We are unable to contact him,â The elderly from the Ziwei Emperor Clan said.
âWhat about the Jade Emperor?â Someone asked anxiously. For the sake of the future of the Celestial Court, they had to protect Li Qingshan.
âOur ancestor told us not to contact him as long as the Celestial Court isnât on the verge of destruction,â The descendants of the Jade Emperor said calmly.
When one of the Crimson Immortals saw this, his heart trembled, and he felt a chill run down his spine.
Could such a Celestial Court be saved?
He looked at Li Qingshan in the starry sky with a trace of pity in his eyes.
If this was in other forces, wouldnât the various Immortal Emperors join forces to protect him?
Only in the Celestial Court, the purportedly greatest power in the Immortal Plane, no one dared to save him.
While the Celestial Court was quarreling, Taoist Dragon, who was far away in the Changshen Emperor Clan, looked up at the starry sky with a dark face.
âWhat should we do? What should we do? How can we save brother-in-law?â Hua Xiangrong said anxiously. She was at a loss and didnât know what to do.
That was an Emperor.
Who can rival an Emperor?
Should they just watch as her brother-in-law faces death?
Hua Xiangrong turned to Taoist Dragon, who was standing beside her, and found that Taoist Dragon was frowning all the time, with a complicated look on his face.
âWhatâs wrong?â Hua Xiangrong asked.
âI will send you away first, then I will go to the starry sky to save Li Qingshan,â Taoist Dragon said in a low voice, then waved his hand and created a space channel in front of him.
âYouâre only at the first level of the Immortal King Realm, Ancient Immortal Realm. How are you going to save brother-in-law?â Hua Xiangrong looked at Taoist Dragon in confusion.
âYouâll know later.â Taoist Dragon reached out his hand and patted Hua Xiangrong, sending her into the space channel. The other end of the channel was far away from the Changsheng Emperor Clan, so Hua Xiangrong wouldnât be in danger.
At the other end of the channel, there were still a few people waiting for Hua
Xiangrong.
Then, Taoist Dragon looked at the starry sky and sighed, âI thought we could barely hold on and see the revival of the Celestial Court. But now, it seems that weâre out of time.â
In the starry sky, Li Qingshan was trapped in a region. The Emperorâs palm slowly gathered. It seemed that in the next moment, he would be completely crushed.
At the brink of death.
However, at this moment, a faint Immortal voice suddenly sounded. It was like a song and a cry, causing the starry sky to tremble.
An old man appeared under the starry sky filled with Emperor energy.
The old manâs face was full of wrinkles and his body was weak. At first glance, he was only at the first level of the Immortal King Realm, an Ancient Immortal.
However, upon closer inspection, this was just an illusion. In the old manâs body resided a deteriorated and fragmented soul, like a broken mirror pieced back together.
âTaoist Dragon!â Li Qingshan looked on in surprise at the critical moment.
âA mere Immortal King dares to save Li Qingshan?â A disdainful voice sounded in the starry sky. It rumbled. It was the voice of an Emperor.
Taoist Dragon came from a distance at a high speed. His body was glowing, and his face was calm.
However, with every step he took, the Great Path of Heaven and Earth resonated, and the stars in the sky trembled.
The light on his body grew brighter. During this process, the layer of Immortal King Realm on his surface faded away, revealing a withered body and a soul full of cracks.
Seeing this, Li Qingshan was extremely surprised. He didnât expect that Taoist Dragonâs inner core could be so desolate.
His withered body and cracked soul showed that Taoist Dragon must have experienced terrible things in the past.
âHuh, I actually misjudged you. Youâre the genius who nearly broke through to the Emperor Realm tens of thousands of years ago in the Celestial Court?â The giant starry hand that was slowly gathering suddenly stopped. It wasnât in a hurry to kill Li Qingshan. The voice of this Demon Clan Emperor came from the starry sky again. He recognized Taoist Dragon.
âTaoist Dragon almost broke through to Emperor Realm?â Li Qingshan was very surprised. He had known Taoist Dragon for so many years, but he had never heard of it.
âDemon Nine Heavens, release Li Qingshan,â Taoist Dragon said calmly.
âYouâre just a person who failed to break through to Emperor Realm. How dare you say such words in front of me?â Demon Nine Heavens was disdainful.
âThe Celestial Court is truly pathetic. Li Qingshan is such a genius, yet you, a loser, came to save him. Those two Emperors are living like cowards,â Demon Nine Heaven mocked with a sneer.
âDemon Nine Heavens, release Li Qingshan,â Taoist Dragon repeated.
âYou forcefully broke through to the Emperor Realm and suffered a backlash. Itâs already fortunate enough that you managed to salvage your life. Instead of continuing to linger and strive in your later years, you now forcefully ascend, wanting to return to your peak. But whatâs the use?
âYou havenât even broken through to Emperor Realm at your peak. What right do you have to say that in front of me?â Demon Nine Heavens said coldly.
âIn fact, I didnât fail to break through back then,â Taoist Dragon said suddenly.
âWhat do you mean?â Demon Nine Heavens said with a strange tone.
âBack then, I also stepped into the Emperor Realm!â Taoist Dragon declared firmly.
Boom!
The blood in his body flowed at this moment, and the sound was clear and audible. It was like a surging river like a raging ocean splitting the sky.
At this moment, Taoist Dragon had a shocking change. He kept walking forward, and every step he took seemed to be going against the flow of time.
In the river of time, Taoist Dragon walked, going upstream, and his body became young again, radiating vitality once more. The soul that had been stuck together gradually became smooth and rounded..
