Chapter 945: Chapter 22: Another Fall and the Space-time Ring
Wang Sheng originally thought that the Oath Secret Treasure of the Shattered Star Sacred Land only involved time, but he didn’t expect that it could very likely be a treasure that involved time and space together.
This kind of treasure was extremely suitable for him, so he naturally could not let it go easily.
Thus, just when the Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor and the Shattered Star Sacred Land were on the verge of a clash, ready to unleash a world-shaking battle, he suddenly appeared between both sides.
“Who?”
Both the Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor and the Shattered Star Sacred Land people tensed up.
A third-party force intervening at this moment, they doubted that it came with good intentions.
Especially the people on the side of the Shattered Star Sacred Land.
They knew the treasure’s ability to lock space, and even the Holy Master found it troublesome to enter.
Yet here it was being breached carelessly, certainly by a formidable figure.
The Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor looked at the person who suddenly appeared and quickly discovered that the person’s gaze wasn’t directed at him, realizing that he wasn’t the target.
On the other side, Yuanhua also sensed it naturally.
“You came for us, didn’t you? What do you want?”
Yuanhua was more aware of how troublesome Wang Sheng was.
While they were in the midst of hunting the Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor, unless absolutely necessary, he didn’t wish to create a needless conflict.
Wang Sheng made no effort to conceal his intentions, stating directly: “It’s simple, I want your Oath Secret Treasure, the one locking space and its accompanying counterpart.”
Upon hearing his intentions, Yuanhua’s expression darkened, his voice carrying a chill as he said, “Do you think we can’t spare the effort, coming to loot in a perilous time?”
“Am I being that unclear?” Wang Sheng feigned surprise, his appearance at this time was indeed an act of looting; he wouldn’t have shown up if it was just the Oath Secret Treasure related to time but would have directly seized it without negotiation.
Before Yuanhua could respond to Wang Sheng’s provocation, another Saint Emperor from the Shattered Star Sacred Land couldn’t hold back.
“Humph, threatening the Shattered Star Sacred Land, where do you get such courage!”
After saying that, he launched an attack without hesitation.
A strike from a Saint Emperor could shatter stars.
The terrifying force surged towards Wang Sheng.
Yuanhua did not stop it; despite sensing Wang Sheng’s terrifying power, it remained unverified.
The Saint Emperor’s attack was also his silent consent.
Facing the fearsome attack, Wang Sheng’s expression remained unchanged as he threw a punch.
In an instant, he suppressed the Saint Emperor’s attack from the Shattered Star Sacred Land and even casually countered it back.
“Pft—”
The Shattered Star Sacred Land’s Saint Emperor spat a mouthful of blood after receiving Wang Sheng’s punch.
Seeing this, the others from the Shattered Star Sacred Land reacted as if facing a formidable foe.
With one strike, the Saint Emperor was injured.
This level of power was likely comparable to the Holy Master.
After the strike, Wang Sheng looked at them, saying, “If I weren’t strong, would I be here? Now, what’s your choice?”
He was openly threatening, without any disguise.
The Saint Emperors of the Shattered Star Sacred Land grew even more tense.
This was different from the Qiong Hua Saint Emperor and the Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor.
Not only was it a completely intact Saint Emperor, but the power was also comparable to the Holy Master.
If it truly came to a fight, even resolving it would likely result in significant casualties among them.
Their plan was nearing success, and they didn’t want more casualties.
The atmosphere was more tense than before.
The Shattered Star Saint Master Yuanhua fell into deep thought instead of immediately speaking.
After a long while, he closed his eyes and slowly spoke: “You can have it.”
Wang Sheng, hearing this, smiled and said, “That’s settled then!”
“But you’ll have to wait until we’re finished with our matters,” Yuanhua added.
“No problem, but I want to see the complete treasure, don’t deceive me; I’m well-versed in these secret treasures, there must be another half,” Wang Sheng demanded his conditions in return.
He needed to see the complete Oath Secret Treasure.
This time, Yuanhua did not hesitate and said, “Hong Yun.”
Wang Sheng raised his eyebrow; he hadn’t expected it to really be in Hong Yun’s possession.
Soon, Hong Yun stepped forward and took out a ring.
Wang Sheng unrestrainedly sensed it.
Hong Yun couldn’t stop him.
Soon, Wang Sheng confirmed its authenticity.
He sensed the same source energy from the ring in Hong Yun’s hand as that which restricts Xing Yuan’s power.
Wang Sheng nodded in acknowledgment.
Yuanhua remained expressionless and asked, “So, will you now step aside?”
“Of course.” Wang Sheng directly moved aside, then looked at the Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor, “Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor must be anxious too, right?”
The Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor already knew Wang Sheng was a peer-level expert to Yuanhua, thus showing great respect to Wang Sheng: “Can’t hide it from you, senior.”
He didn’t hide his own intentions but chose to wait, for this final battle.
After answering Wang Sheng, the Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor looked at the Shattered Star Sacred Land’s people and said: “Yuanhua, dare to fight alone?”
Wang Sheng was a bit surprised; he sensed the Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor’s aura continuously rising.
The words carried sword intent.
If Yuanhua did not accept, it might even affect his future cultivation path.
He could sense it, and Yuanhua naturally could too.
“I’ve underestimated you, Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor, such self-enhancement, even without our intervention, you would die.”
“But there is also the possibility of stepping into an entire new realm.” The Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor showed no concern for death, “Originally, I didn’t have this opportunity, but with your appearance, it gave me a glimmer of hope.”
“Hope you don’t end up breaking your sword,” Yuanhua doubted the Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor’s success.
He knew clearly how difficult a breakthrough would be.
However—
“Since you wish to fight, I’ll give you the chance. If you succeed, avenge as you like; if you fail, your body will be mine.”
“Deal!” Even knowing that he couldn’t preserve his body after death, the Heavenly Sword Saint Emperor didn’t hesitate for a second.
