Emperor’s Domination

Chapter 6014: He Who Receives A Gift Is Obliged

“Okay, go to sleep now.” Li Qiye smiled and patted the statue.

“Buzz.” The rays dispersed and the eye closed, assuming the appearance of an oval rock.

Sky Step King didn’t know what to say. He thought he was only carrying a strange statue at the start. It turned out to be such a terrifying artifact, causing him to break out in cold sweat.

He didn’t dare to move recklessly and activate the statue or it might end with his death.

The sky became clear again and everything was the same as before. Monsters were nowhere to be found while the terrains assumed their initial form. The massacre seemed to be nothing more than a dream.

However, remnant bits of flesh and streams of blood told a different tale. The survivors from Splendor shuddered while gazing at the carnage.

If they had been outside the barrier, they would have suffered the same fate. They stared at the statue, wondering what if it were to open its eye again.

Li Qiye raised his hand and plucked a flower hidden among the three treasuries. It was as white as snow and looked like a piece of carved jade around the size of a small bowl.

It emitted a sweet fragrance as refreshing as the sea breezes. Breathing it in made one feel rejuvenated and unclogged.

He handed it to Sky Step King and said: “Take this back since your progenitor needs it, it should heal the relevant injuries.”

Sky Step was stunned momentarily before bowing: “Thank you, Young Noble.”

This was the most precious flower in Splendor Square yet the manager didn’t say anything about Li Qiye’s decision.

“Sigh, get in.” He raised his hand again and the ring on his finger became resplendent.

Its light engulfed the area and caused the treasuries to shake violently before being dragged into the ring.

Inside were the most precious weapons, metals, and alchemy materials. All were contained within his ring now.

Nevertheless, the members of Splendor bowed to show their appreciation instead.

“Young Noble, we will not forget your deeds today.” The manager said.

“He who receives a gift is obliged, it is part of karma.” Li Qiye smiled and shook his head.

They had no problem with him taking the treasuries because the same outcome would have happened without interference. The only difference would be their death.

“Boom!” Suddenly, a black beam infused with lightning erupted over yonder for a few seconds before disappearing.

“Shit, the monarch!” Goldvase and the others became alarmed.

“What are you keeping in that immortal palace?” Minisun observed the horizon before asking, not knowing the source of the black beam.

She had never seen this type of affinity before. It carried the power of tribulation, curse, and absolute destruction. It erased existences including itself at the final moment.

“We do not know.” Goldvase smiled wryly and shook his head: “We didn’t take a good look before it destroyed our terra barrier.”

“Let’s go before it gets out of control.” Li Qiye sighed and said, having full knowledge of this matter.

This thing shouldn’t exist but unfortunately, someone didn’t heed the warnings. It was a miracle for them to last this long.

***

In the center of Splendor Terra was an immortal palace - the final stand of the area. This was the true target of the great powers and the three dynasties. The treasury here was on a different level compared to the three layers.

Rumor has it that in storage were wondrous mysteries and secrets. Some were related to the immortals.

Some believed Splendor Monarch built it using the most precious materials. However, another memorable legend stated otherwise - that it was left behind by an immortal after Heavenslay.

This immortal disappeared and left behind numerous special areas - mountains, palaces, ruins…

They were sought after by everyone for eras. Eventually, Splendor Monarch traveled the world to collect treasures and found this palace, pulling the entire area back. Therefore, chances were all of Splendor Terra belonged to the immortal once, not just the palace.

Back to the present, the palace was surrounded by cultivators from Witch King, Sky Tree, Phantom, Immortal Suppression, and many more.

The inspectors of Immortal Suppression and other legions of Phantom formed a perfect blockade.
