Chapter 1019: Chapter 1018: The Mysterious Gate

The expression on Emperor Longfeng’s face was extremely grim. To know, only Edison Yates knew the exact whereabouts of Delilah Ferguson, so after inquiring Edison Yates, one could then determine the cause and location of Delilah Ferguson’s death.

But now, what does a death of someone named Yates mean? Could it be possible that this Yates was Edison Yates!

The Bone Dragon is a skeletal dragon, a dragon without blood, flesh, or heart—in plain terms, it’s a zombie dragon.

Just as humans have zombies, the Lopez Clan also has zombie dragons. Although these Bone Dragons aren’t considered particularly powerful, they are hardy, resistant to blades and gunfire, immune to fire and water, and so on. Ordinary weapons and Divine Skills are simply not enough to subdue a Bone Dragon.

This also resulted in nearly a hundred people surrounding and fighting the Bone Dragon, but they couldn’t really do much to it, and occasionally the Bone Dragon would kill someone.

However, Emperor Longfeng had also realized that the Bone Dragons in the Earth Palace were merely guardians. Behind the Earth Palace was a massive door, and the Bone Dragons were placed there to prevent people from entering.

"Hmph—" Suddenly, just as the senior powerhouses from the Campbell Sect, Carefree Palace, Green Spirit Sect, and the Baiyun Sanctuary were skirmishing around, Emperor Longfeng let out a grunt and then stepped into the Earth Palace!

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—" All those entangled with the Bone Dragon immediately retreated, each to their respective safe areas, while everyone’s eyes similarly turned towards Emperor Longfeng!

They all felt the overwhelming strength of the newcomer, a power they couldn’t even begin to fathom!

Dillon Meskill was a member of the Meskill family, accustomed to grand scenes and had seen Immortal Emperor level beings, so when he saw this person appear, his scalp tingled with shock. Although he was haughty, in front of such an Immortal Emperor, he was less than nothing!

"Element World’s Meskill Clan’s Dillon Meskill pays respects to the Great Emperor!" The man was indeed clever, being the first to kneel down to Emperor Longfeng.

That’s right, kneel down.

After all, the other party was a Great Emperor. To kneel before someone of such stature wasn’t considered extremely subservient or demeaning.

"What? A Great Emperor?"

"An Immortal Emperor?"

"My God!"

Everyone’s minds buzzed with shock. Immortal Emperors were the strongest beings across the Three Realms of Middle Yuan, Upper Yuan, and Immortal Realm. Although Immortal Emperors were categorized into nine ranks, any Immortal Emperor was a rare and overwhelming presence capable of sweeping away everything.

Compared to an Immortal Emperor, their Sects might be top-tier super Sects in the Element World, but if an Immortal Emperor wished to annihilate them, it would be a simple flip of the hand, and afterwards, no one would dare seek revenge.

Who would dare to seek vengeance against an Immortal Emperor?

"Paying respects to the Great Emperor..." Many people knew that Dillon Meskill would not make a mistake. There were Immortal Emperors among the ancestors of the Meskill Clan, even in the Immortal Realm.

The Four Great Sects all knelt down in a rustle.

And that Bone Dragon continued to guard in front of the huge gate, emitting low growls.

"Who is Edison Yates?" Emperor Longfeng seemed not to care about the Bone Dragon in front of him, but instead immediately asked about Edison Yates.

"Uh..." Many from the Campbell Sect were stunned for a moment, then Dillon Meskill quietly replied, "Responding to the Great Emperor, Edison Yates was swallowed by the Bone Dragon before..."

Emperor Longfeng sighed in his heart, realizing he was a step too late. Of course, it could also be the will of heaven playing a trick, deliberately preventing him from finding out the cause of his daughter’s death.

"Then, who knows where Delilah Ferguson went? And who was she with?"

"This... Edison Yates should have known, but he’s dead now..." Everyone was at a loss for words. How could the timing be so coincidental? The Great Emperor was searching for the whereabouts of Delilah Ferguson, yet Edison Yates had just died!

"Hmph!" Emperor Longfeng, upon receiving no response, suddenly let out an angry hum. A profound pressure fiercely enveloped everyone present!

"I am Emperor Jiang Haiquan, known as Longfeng. Now, I give you all a chance to live. My daughter, Delilah Ferguson, died within this Spirit Realm, but where her remains lie and the cause of her death are unknown. Therefore, what you need to do now is trace my daughter’s steps, find out her cause of death, and if you cannot ascertain it within a year, then stay here forever!"

"Scram!"

After the Great Emperor Changfeng had spoken, it seemed he wanted to show off in front of the crowd, to intimidate these little figures who had not seen much of the world. With just one pointed finger, he pressed towards the enormous bone dragon.

Everyone watched in astonishment as the bone dragon, which also seemed to have been frightened, mustered the courage to roar and bite toward the hand of the Great Emperor Changfeng as it approached.

Alas, just as it began to move, the Great Emperor Changfeng’s finger pressed onto its heavenly spirit spot, and then... crack, crack, crack, crack, crack... the bone dragon started to shatter rhythmically from head to tail!

In just a single breath, the enormous bone dragon turned to dust amidst pitiful screams.

Indeed, the masters from The Four Great Sects, all above the Golden Immortal rank, had joined hands to attack the bone dragon for days, yet they had found no solution; but with one move from the Great Emperor Changfeng, the bone dragon was directly reduced to powder!

This is the might of the true strong, the Supreme Emperor, crushing everything.

"So powerful~"

"When an emperor is enraged, all beings submit!"

"With one motion of the emperor’s finger, the evil dragon offers up its head."

"This is the supreme Immortal Emperor, the Great Emperor!"

"What a pity, this treasure house shall have no more connection with us..."

Everyone inwardly sighed. They had been dueling with the bone dragon in hopes of entering the grand doors behind, but now, the Great Emperor Changfeng had ordered them to "scram", and sought for them to locate the trail of his deceased daughter?

Was it to ascertain the cause of death, to see where she had died?

They also knew that the Great Emperor Changfeng was definitely not joking; if they could not find out, they feared they would all die, and even if they managed to escape the Spirit Realm back to their Sects, those Sects would be destroyed just the same. No one could save them.

"Not scramming yet?" the Great Emperor Changfeng said coldly after killing the bone dragon.

"Yes, yes, yes..." Everyone nodded repeatedly, then all flew up, rushing quickly out of the Earth Palace.

And just after everyone had left, the Great Emperor Changfeng finally took a deep breath, his eyebrows lifting high. For he had not expected that there would be ancient relics within this Spirit Realm!

Correct, the grand door guarded by the bone dragon was clearly imbued with a majestic, solemn, and primitive aura of Divine Spiritual Energy.

Thus, there must be a great discovery behind that door, or even a great treasure!

"Hoo~" The Great Emperor Changfeng exhaled softly, muttering, "All the qualifications for becoming a god cannot be exchanged for my daughter’s life. Had I known, I should have brought her up by my side!" He now felt some regret. He might have had many children, but Delilah Ferguson was extraordinary among them.

Each descendant’s genetic heritage was different, and among all his children, only this daughter, born from a one-night affair, had the purest bloodline, possibly inheriting more than ninety percent of his own. Therefore, Delilah Ferguson’s talent for cultivation was exceptional, making progress with half the effort, and becoming an Immortal Emperor in the future was not a difficult task.

He had the highest hopes for her.

Only to lament that, in just a short sixteen years, Delilah Ferguson had died, a case of the heavens envying the gifted!

He sighed again, shaking his head and proceeded towards the grand door, using his Divine Sense to feel around for a moment. Finding no great danger, he placed his palms on the two doors and tried to push open!

However... Just as his palms rested on the two grand doors, they rippled like water waves, trembling, and beneath each of his palms, a spinning black hole appeared, each exuding an irresistible suction force!

The Great Emperor Changfeng felt inexplicable terror, his body firmly sucked in, and when he tried to break free, he could not escape.

"No good, it’s going to rip me in half!" No longer hesitating, his body shook, and he suddenly retracted one hand; then his body was sucked into the black hole under the other hand.

The grand doors became calm, as if nothing had happened at all.
