“Oh? Emperor Golden Snake had been hiding his true power?”
This fact aroused the black-robed elder’s interest, but he was instantly stunned when he learned that Emperor Golden Snake had comprehended the Phantom Saber Principle and displayed the terrifying Triple Phantom Saber Moves .
“Phantom? Phantom Dao?”
“So he is the human emperor that Crystal-armored Monster Emperor has been looking for?”
The elder was so astonished that his glowing red eyes almost popped out of his head . He read through the report carefully once again and studied the profile of Emperor Golden Snake before finally coming to a conclusion .
“Although Emperor Golden Snake had comprehended the Phantom Dao, he hid it from the others and kept a low profile . It wasn’t until the life-death duel with Jian Wushuang that he was finally forced to expose these techniques . ” The elder’s eyes sparkled .
“Right!”
“Emperor Golden Snake is the only human expert who mastered the Phantom Dao, so he must be the one Crystal-armored Monster Emperor has been looking for .
“Finally, Crystal-armored Monster Emperor can get him!
“However, he is already dead . ” The elder pondered . “Whatever, it’s better to report the news to Crystal-armored Monster Emperor first . ”
The elder immediately sent a message to Crystal-armored Monster Emperor .
The Monster’s Territory was much more vast than the human’s territory .
In a certain part of the territory, there was a large ancient forest, which was home to a group of horrible monsters known as the Crystal-armored Monster Clan .
At the center of the forest, there was a cave mansion that led to the underground .
A sudden loud shout broke the silence inside the mansion .
“Haha, after searching for so many years, we have finally tracked down that damn human emperor!”
The voice was domineering, with a hit of joy and excitement mixed in . It was also so loud that it resounded through the area and disturbed the tranquility of the forest .
“I never thought that Emperor Golden Snake would be the man I was looking for since he was a nameless Divine Emperor . It’s been 40 years since he seized the compass by relying on his Phantom Dao .
“He knew I was looking for him, so he never displayed that technique to others during all these years .
“He remained hidden for so long, only to expose himself while facing a deadly situation, but he still died in the end . What a pity!
“Since he is dead, the compass must have fallen into the hands of Sword Emperor .
“Sword Emperor . ”
The muttering voice suddenly became excited .
“Tell them to kill Sword Emperor at all costs, then bring his body and Interspatial Ring back to me,” the voice ordered .
“That compass belongs to me alone . ”
Inside the monster spies’ information center, the black-robed elder had just received the order from Crystal-armored Monster Emperor .
“Sure enough, Crystal-armored Monster Emperor ordered to us to kill Sword Emperor, no matter the cost . ”
“However, Sword Emperor is a superior emperor and it will be hard for us to kill him with only the current force that is hidden in the Human Territory . ”
The elder was staring at the ground, lost in thought, but he quickly reached a decision and looked up . “It seems that we have to ask that lord for help . ”
Among the monster spies in Human Territory, some of them were powerful while some were weak .
The weak were the Demonic Beasts in the Saint Realm and Cloud Realm, but the most powerful ones could even fight against Divine Generals and Divine Emperors .
Some talented spies even managed to have a breakthrough in their cultivation after entering the Human Territory .
Among those spies, the most powerful one should be “Ji “, who had exceeded the power of a Rank Nine Monster and reached the level of a Monster King .
In the Monster-exterminating League, Monster Kings were supreme experts that were as powerful as Temple Masters .
“Master Ji . ” The black-robed elder went to a secret chamber and called out respectfully .
The chamber was closed all year round because the master spent most of his time cultivating and rarely came out .
“What’s the matter?” The master asked in a frigid voice .
“Crystal-armored Monster Emperor ordered us to kill a human emperor at all costs and take his body and Interspatial Ring back .
“However, this human emperor is a superior emperor that is extremely powerful . We can’t kill him on our own, so I came to ask you for help,” The elder answered .
As soon as the elder’s voice fell, the chamber opened and a hairy, black-skinned man came out . The man was over two meters tall and looked as strong as a brown bear . He was none other than Ji .
“You just said it was Crystal-armored Monster Emperor’s order?” Ji stared at the elder .
“Yes . ” The elder nodded . “I’ve just received the order, but you can verify it yourself . ”
Without hesitation, Ji sent a message to Crystal-armored Monster Emperor and quickly received a positive answer .
Even though he was Monster King and as powerful as a Human Temple Master, he was no match for Crystal-armored Monster Emperor, so he dared not go against the emperor’s order .
After all, Crystal-armored Monster Emperor was a true overlord among the monsters .
“Where is Sword Emperor?” Ji questioned .
“He is in the Holy Place,” said the elder .
“The Holy Place?” Ji shook his head . “The Holy Place is very important to the humans, so the number one expert, Temple Master Black Spirit, always keeps an eye on it . It’s also where the relic is stored, so I would only be seeking death if I went there to kill Sword Emperor . ”
“I understand . From now on, I’ll have someone waiting outside the Holy Place at all times,” said the elder, “As far as I know, Sword Emperor is an outsider who is only in the Saint Realm . He chose to stay and act as a Divine Emperor of the Monster-exterminating League, so he must be planning to improve himself with the league’s resources .
“To gain those resources he will need to hand over Monster Cores and to gain those cores he has to leave the Holy Place . Once he enters the military camp or our monster territory, we’ll have the perfect chance to kill him . ”
“Fine . When he leaves the Holy Place, make sure to inform me . ”
After saying this, Ji walked back into the chamber .
