Chapter 849: Chapter 849: Defeat the Protagonist of Heaven and Earth

After Taishang Laojun flew back, Qin Jun hurriedly asked, "Laojun, are you injured?"

The powerhouses of King Yan Palace also looked at Taishang Laojun with awe, as he was a terrifying powerhouse who could do battle with the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny.

"I’m fine," Taishang Laojun said with a slight smile, then turned to look at the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny in the high sky, and chuckled, "This person must be a favored prodigy."

A favored prodigy!

Being called a favored prodigy by Taishang Laojun showed his high estimation of the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny.

Qin Jun was even more confused. Who had won and who had lost?

Could it be that they fought to a draw?

Seeing the expressions of both Taishang Laojun and the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny, they seemed quite pleased, could it be...

Cough cough...

Qin Jun quickly cast aside his stray thoughts and looked up at the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny.

Positioned above the clouds, the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny looked down upon the world like a deity, and with a light laugh he said, "Taishang Laojun, I’ve remembered this name. You are very impressive, next time let’s have a hearty battle beyond the heavens!"

After speaking, the figure of the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny dissipated on the spot.

This left countless beings looking at each other in bewilderment. Who had won?

Taishang Laojun shook his head with a smile, addressing Qin Jun’s puzzled gaze, he softly said, "At this moment, I am no match for him."

No match?

Qin Jun took a sharp breath. Was the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny that strong?

Surpassing the late stage of the Daluo Initial Immortal Realm?

Such strength could easily snuff out that immortal, Chu Juhuai. How illogical!

For a moment, Qin Jun fell into deep thought, realizing he could not see through this world.

Taishang Laojun, however, was quite open about it. Although the two hadn’t truly determined who was superior, he understood that if they really fought, the loser would definitely be him.

"There’s no need to be discouraged, Laojun, your true strength far surpasses his," Qin Jun consoled.

The Taishang Laojun summoned by the system wasn’t at his peak condition, or else he could teach the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny a lesson in minutes.

But this battle made Qin Jun deeply realize just how strong the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny was.

Randeng could easily dominate the second-strongest of this era, the Nether Emperor, while Randeng was easily killed by Taishang Laojun, and now Taishang Laojun himself admitted he was no match for the first of this era, the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny.

No wonder everyone mentioned the Nether Emperor and the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny with such certainty that the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny was the strongest.

This guy had already dominated this realm.

"Tsk tsk, I didn’t expect that in the world today there would be such a favored prodigy; it’s a pity I am not in the same era as him," Ji Yongsheng suddenly sighed in Qin Jun’s mind.

"Who?"

"The Emperor of Heavenly Destiny!"

Ji Yongsheng, not knowing the true identity of Taishang Laojun, now admired the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny even more.

The fact that the proud Ji Yongsheng and Taishang Laojun both spoke highly of him showed just how incredible the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny was.

"Hmph, I will eventually step on the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny!" Qin Jun hummed internally, somewhat unhappy.

"Ding! Triggered main task — Defeat the Protagonist of Heaven and Earth! Task details: Since the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny is the Protagonist of Heaven and Earth in this world, if the host wants to step on him, it will provoke a struggle of fate. If the host can personally defeat the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny, they will receive one God and Demon summoning opportunity, one peak God and Demon opportunity, one God and Demon instance opportunity, and one random lottery draw!"

The system notification suddenly sounded, startling Qin Jun.

The Protagonist of Heaven and Earth?

Qin Jun clicked his tongue in secret, no wonder the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny was so formidable.

The so-called Protagonist of Heaven and Earth is a favored prodigy protected by the qi movement of heaven and earth. In novels, that would definitely be the protagonist who instantly dominates everything and ascends to the highest supreme position.

Liu Ruolai is the child of fate, favored by destiny, and is one who can also be a protagonist.

"Wait, personally defeat?"

Qin Jun suddenly focused on this keyword of the main task. Was it setting the pace for Qin Jun to challenge the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny alone?

"Yes, if one can defeat the protagonist of heaven and earth in single combat, there is a chance to steal their qi movement." the system replied.

Qin Jun suddenly understood, and rather than being flustered, he felt somewhat expectant.

As Emperor Di, he did not need to take action himself; in most wars, he would have his subordinates march into battle, while he was in control of the overall situation. However, he also harbored a heart that refused to remain idle.

At the thought of personally defeating the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny, Qin Jun felt a bit eager.

Although there was a vast gap in strength between him and the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny, his breakthrough speed was fast. He had climbed from a mortal to the Golden Immortal Realm in just one year. Looking around the world, who could match his speed of ascension?

"Hmph, Emperor of Heavenly Destiny, wait for Your Majesty to defeat you!"

While Qin Jun was lost in his whirlwind thoughts, the Nether Emperor also departed.

But his vanishing silhouette seemed incredibly desolate, as he was the biggest loser in this battle.

Being the second strongest in the current era, he was still unable to do anything about Randeng, the master of the sword, and the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord.

After today, he feared it would be very difficult for him to hold onto his position as the second sovereign lord.

"Clean up the battlefield, bury all the dead brothers. It seems we will need to relocate King Yan City." Qin Jun turned around and said, after this battle, King Yan Palace had lost millions of soldiers, an exact number was hard to estimate.

"Yes!"

The Zhenwu Emperor and others bowed with their fists clasped in response.

With the Netherworld army withdrawing, no matter the process, ultimately, it was deemed that King Yan Palace had prevailed. Even the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny had not defeated the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord of King Yan Palace, so naturally, their subordinates were very delighted.

The beings who had been watching the battle from afar also began to leave, all of them buzzing with excitement, feeling a sense of achievement just talking about this battle.

"King Yan Palace is on the rise!"

"Absolutely, after today, the second sovereign lord is definitely the Yan Emperor!"

"Poor Nether Emperor, the Netherworld army is terribly strong, but King Yan Palace is even stronger."

"The forces were uneven, but in terms of high-end power, King Yan Palace was stronger."

"I just want to know, who won and who lost between the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny and the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord."

The creatures were beyond excited, eager to spread the news immediately.

A storm that would sweep across the entire world was about to come.

"Ding! Side quest completed——Defeat the land of Netherworld! You have obtained one God and Demon summon opportunity and one God and Demon peak opportunity!"

While Qin Jun was chatting leisurely with the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord, the system notification sounded, making him smile wryly.

Defeating the land of Netherworld?

Hardly!

Qin Jun knew in his heart that his ambition was greater; he intended to conquer the Netherworld.

In the distance, the master of the sword gave Qin Jun a deep glance and ultimately chose to leave.

Watching his retreating figure, Qin Jun stroked his chin in contemplation; setting aside the previous interruption of the battle, he very much wanted to recruit the master of the sword.

"Are you interested in that man?" the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord asked.

"Mhm, Elder Lord, what do you think of him?" Qin Jun nodded and asked with a smile.

"A very decent sword cultivator, worth drawing over." The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord stroked his beard, suddenly looking forward to what they would see and experience following Qin Jun. Perhaps that indefinable destiny was waiting just for him.

Having reached the Luoshi Immortal Realm, if one wished to advance one’s cultivation through hard practice alone, it was very difficult.

Only by seeking opportunities could one possibly make a breakthrough.

"Elder Lord, how would you like to accompany me by my side in the future? To be frank with you, I have a master under my command who is not inferior to you. If you two meet, perhaps you could gain something." Qin Jun extended his invitation.

The master he mentioned was naturally Patriarch Bodhi.

Patriarch Bodhi had memories from a previous life, but Qin Jun believed that Patriarch Bodhi would not gossip to try to help the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord recover his memories. Even if he wanted to, he would be unable to do so.

At the same time, having two extremely powerful beings together might act as a check on one another.
