Asura Emperor Venerable
Chapter 621: Breaking the Siege

Chapter 621: Chapter 621: Breaking the Siege

Those who could appear here either created their own small world, like Shi Hao, or they were Heaven Building Ladder powerhouses.

Compared to the former, the latter was much more likely.

So, the probability that this woman in black was a Heaven Building Ladder powerhouse was greater.

However, judging from her voice, she seemed very young, and the skin on the wrist that she revealed was snow-white and smooth, not at all like that of someone who was elderly.

But under the protection of the domain, no one could see the flame of her life clearly, nor could they see her face through the veil, naturally making it impossible to gather more information about her.

Previously, the seven Almighties all showed expressions of surprise. They knew well how many Heaven Building Ladder powerhouses there were on Yunding Star, but this one before them... was completely unfamiliar, as if she had emerged out of thin air.

The key point was, the Sky Ladder powerhouses are the strongest in the Mortal Realm, so how could one possibly just pop up out of nowhere?

"How should I address fellow Daoist?" asked a Qing Yi-clad elder. He was tall and imposing, carrying himself with a dignified air and an overwhelming aura.

The woman in black huffed, "You are not worthy of knowing my name! Now all of you get lost, or else, I will slaughter you all!"

This statement almost made the seven Almighties burst into laughter.

The Sky Ladder represents the peak of this world, and to reach such heights, each one is a genius among geniuses, aren’t they?

Even if there’s a gap, it’s extremely small. It’s extraordinary and impressive to be able to face two opponents alone!

Now, here they were, seven of them, and the woman in black actually threatened to slaughter them all – wasn’t that a joke?

Do you think you’re Gu Shiyun?

Only Gu Tong had the right to make such claims, single-handedly suppressing the heads of all the Heaven Building Ladder powerhouses at that time, compelling the Myriad Sects to pay homage, with the Tianxia Sect bending before him in reverence.

But how many such powerhouses could there have been since ancient times and in the present?

If anything, the Stone Clan did have a little demon known for overpowering Brother Gu, but that was only hearsay. Until stepping onto the Sky Ladder, he wouldn’t even be qualified for them to glance at respectfully.

"Not leaving yet?" The woman in black clearly had a prickly personality. Seeing that the seven paid her no mind, she leapt straight into action, launching an attack.

How audacious she was, taking on seven at once!

Shi Hao and Shi Feng hastily retreated. To them, this was akin to deities clashing, and they had no wish to suffer undeserved calamities.

Fortunately, this was inside the Golden Dragon’s body; there were plenty of places to hide, and the obstacles were incredibly tough, capable of withstanding the full force of a Sky Ladder powerhouse’s strike without any difficulty, let alone some mere shockwaves.

Boom!

The fierce battle immediately erupted, with brilliant radiance that was startlingly dazzling, and the terrible explosions resembled the collapse of the Sun. Shi Hao was not even qualified to watch, and even Shi Feng could only steal an occasional glance before quickly ducking back into cover.

Looking directly was essentially courting blindness!

"The woman in black is actually gaining the upper hand!"

...

"One has fallen."

...

"Two have fallen."

...

Shi Feng continued to relay the situation of the battle, which made Shi Hao’s scalp tingle.

One against seven, and the woman in black was actually gaining the upper hand, even obtaining an overwhelming advantage.

Damn it, this was the Sky Ladder after all. At this realm, it’s virtually impossible for anyone to have gotten there by luck; they must be geniuses among geniuses.

Logically speaking, unless one was a freak like Gu Tong, then who would be weaker than one another?

Where did this woman come from? She was too terrifying.

It didn’t take much time before all seven Almighties were defeated.

However, although the woman in black spoke fiercely about slaughtering the seven Almighties and so on, she had only defeated them and didn’t truly intend to kill anyone.

In fact, it’s easier to defeat someone than to kill them. When Heaven Building Ladder powerhouses truly fight for their lives, it is an exceedingly terrifying affair.

Even so, the strength of the black-clothed woman was undoubtedly formidable, perhaps even terrifyingly so.

The seven Almighties couldn’t utter a word; the seven of them joined forces yet were defeated—it was too embarrassing!

The black-clothed woman set her sights on Shi Hao and Shi Feng and said, "You were the first to enter the Golden Dragon Corpse; did you find anything?"

If we’re talking about the first, that would definitely be the Purple Gold Rat, even though it’s not human.

Shi Hao thought to himself and then said with a smile, "Senior, we are of low strength, barely managing to enter this place; how could we possibly have found anything?"

The black-clothed woman snorted, "You look so handsome, but the words you speak cannot be trusted! Fine, I will capture you and directly search your memories!"

Shi Hao was startled; his secrets were too numerous, whether it was the legacy of Yuan Chengmie or matters regarding Su Manman, none could be known to outsiders.

There was no choice; he had to hide with his father in the Immortal Abode, even if it meant exposing their secrets.

"My beautiful lady, please show mercy!" A voice suddenly emerged, and then a carefree middle-aged man who appeared to be in his thirties came over.

What the hell!

The seven previous Almighties were all astonished; what has become of this world?

Yet another Heaven Building Ladder Almighty they had never seen or heard of before had arrived.

"Who are you?" the black-clothed woman asked.

"Gu Tong," the middle-aged man said with a smile.

Gu Tong?

Not only the black-clothed woman but also the other seven Almighties murmured the name, certain they had never heard of it.

But, the surname Gu?

Hiss, could it possibly be related to Gu Shiyun?

"What do you want?" the black-clothed woman asked.

"He’s my little brother; please don’t make things difficult for him," Gu Tong said, gesturing toward Shi Hao.

Shi Feng was surprised; Shi Hao actually knew such a big shot?

What kind of cultivation does his son have? His networking skills are too impressive.

Shi Hao was embarrassed since he was the one who had thick-skinnedly approached Brother Gu.

However, why would a Heaven Building Ladder Almighty look at him with such favor, and what was he really after?

He always talked about big issues, about the Immortal Path being severed and needing to be reinstated; could it be that he wasn’t just bluffing?

As for his impression of Gu Tong, Shi Hao always felt that the man liked to joke around and never seemed serious.

The black-clothed woman looked at Gu Tong coldly and said, "In this world, in the end, it’s strength that does the talking."

"Sigh, I’m not fond of fighting women, but for my little brother, I suppose I’ll have to exchange a few moves with you," Gu Tong declared rather pretentiously.

Shi Hao broke into a cold sweat; did Brother Gu really have to phrase it that suggestively?

The black-clothed woman leapt up and charged towards Gu Tong.

When Heaven Building Ladder Almighties clashed, those below them simply weren’t qualified to watch, let alone get involved. Gu Feng, like before, could only take a glance before retreating.

"A draw."

"Neither superior nor inferior!"

"Hiss!"

Although Gu Tong didn’t defeat the black-clothed woman, she had already proven her strength by crushing the combined effort of seven Heaven Building Ladder Almighties—how powerful was she?

This meant, Gu Tong was also powerful to such extent!

My God.

The seven Almighties were going crazy—where on earth had these two come from?
