Chapter 675: Chapter 434: The Traitor_2

The most important thing is, the Holy Emperor of Luyi has been in retreat recently, which raises the question, why would this invite the Supreme’s killing intent?

Just when everyone was puzzled.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

In an instant, no fewer than five explosive sounds echoed.

The dead shared common traits, one of which was that they were all Saint Emperors, and furthermore, they were all killed by a Supreme.

Beyond that, there were no apparent connections.

At least none that could be seen on the surface.

This undoubtedly caused many Saint Emperors to panic.

They had no choice but to be afraid!

They were terrified that the Supreme was attacking indiscriminately—if it were to happen to them, they’d undoubtedly perish instantly. Who would want their endless years of effort to come to nothing?

However, before they could react, a series of crimson lights shone over the Pure Land.

A streak of light flashed by, and likewise, a Saint Emperor fell.

Compared to All Heavens, the number of Saint Emperors who perished on the Pure Land was even greater, totaling thirteen.

This was also no small loss for the Pure Land.

"Qu Chen, what are you doing? Why suddenly lash out with such deadly force?" the Supremes of the Pure Land were very confused.

And among these Saint Emperors, some were subordinates they favored, and even their own blood offspring.

If Qu Chen couldn’t provide a reasonable explanation, the Pure Land might also disintegrate due to disloyalty.

"They’re all traitors, all hidden agents lurking in the Pure Land," Qu Chen said.

As his words fell, all the Supremes of the Pure Land were astonished.

At this moment, a Supreme spoke up, "How do you know this? Why be so impulsive? My descendant, the Daylily Holy Emperor, is a rare genius occurring once every billion years, with the potential to challenge for the title of Supreme. I need evidence!"

The Supreme who had just spoken was none other than Sky Voyage Supreme, who previously seized treasures at the Mountain of Inheritance.

Now, he was somewhat dissatisfied with Qu Chen’s actions.

Although everyone is an ant beneath the Supreme, cultivating a quality Saint Emperor also requires a lot of effort.

Moreover, these Supremes also value lineage, as they want their descendants to excel and be able to assist them.

"The Respected Daoist came to me just now, asking us to gather our consciousness, which you all saw. The reason he asked you to slice off a bit of your consciousness was to root out the traitors," Qu Chen said.

What remained in the Pure Land was his true body, while only an avatar had been present at the Origin of Ten Thousand Realms.

"Look!" Qu Chen waved his hand.

Following that, a cluster of light appeared.

Inside it, scenes emerged, belonging to a fraction of the Daylily Holy Emperor’s consciousness.

"This consciousness... doesn’t have anything..."

Sky Voyage was about to say there was nothing wrong with this consciousness.

But just then, within that small bundle of consciousness, a faintly visible black chain emerged.

Seeing this, all the Supremes of the Pure Land fell silent.

They all recognized this black chain, as it was the most common restriction used by the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning to bind and control the powerful.

Because of the existence of this chain, they could never find any information after identifying a traitor.

This obscure chain provided conclusive proof that the Daylily Holy Emperor was a traitor.

"The Respected Daoist found me earlier and said that gathering consciousness would reveal the traitors. Now it seems to be true. The twelve Saint Emperors I just killed were all traitors!" Qu Chen’s voice grew increasingly stern.

Since the Epoch calamity until now, some traitors had indeed been rooted out within the Pure Land.

When the Qingyun List was published in the chaos, some exposed Saint Kings were already slain.

In addition, there was the master of the Hundred Arts, Saint Emperor Lan Xuan, and even Supreme Wen Heng was a traitor.

But it was unexpected that after killing so many, there were still so many hidden within the Pure Land.

After a long while.

"The rebellious Saint Emperors have been eradicated, but what about the Supremes..." Sky Voyage pondered.

In this moment, the expressions of the Supremes in the Pure Land suddenly stiffened.

There weren’t many Supremes in the Pure Land to begin with, totaling only seven in all.

Wen Heng was already gone.

Now among the Supremes left, there were Qu Chen, Sky Voyage, Zhifang, a giant shark, Tianchen, and one known as Supreme Yuan He.

Of these six Supremes, Supreme Yuan He had the lowest profile, or to say, appeared the least and was the most enigmatic.

But that didn’t mean he was the weakest.

After Wen Heng was exposed as a traitor, Qu Chen speculated that there must be another traitor lurking among them!

"The Supreme is still unaware," Qu Chen said, and then he fell silent.

But the aura of Blood Fiend on him was about to burst to the limit.

He had always harbored a deep hatred for traitors.

When Wen Heng, the Supreme, and Lan Xuan, the Saint Emperor, betrayed them, Qu Chen wished he could have slain them himself.

The many powerful beings on the Pure Land were remnants of numerous shattered Epochs.

All were wretched souls, each with their own goals, ambitions, and seeing some of them fall from grace, Qu Chen was not only pained but even more so filled with rage.

Elsewhere, chaos erupted among the Secret Forces.

The majority of fear engendered by the Secret Forces arose from the traitors hidden within the chaos of the Myriad Realms and the Pure Land.

These traitors could transmit real-time intelligence and, if used properly, could strike a deadly blow to the chaos of the Myriad Realms and the Pure Land.

"Why? These members at the rank of General weren’t they concealed very covertly? The majority haven’t even been activated, so why have they been so swiftly uncovered and killed?" The Lord of Silence was far from calm.

"It’s that consciousness aggregate. It seems those people didn’t just want to block our entry but more so to root out the traitors," said the Master of the Tower of Time.

"Is this... a warning from the Ancestor of Early Dawn to me?" Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning spoke coldly.

At this moment, he seemed to recall something, his eyes filled with resentment.

Towards the name "Ancestor of Early Dawn," the Lord of Silence and the Master of the Tower of Time had always been puzzled but dared not inquire with the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning.

All they knew was that the Ancestor of Early Dawn is the Supreme of the Dao Realm and that their adult Patron bore great enmity towards this Ancestor of Early Dawn—nothing more.

"A rank of King is not so easily scrutinized, but it’s just a pity for Jiang Yi..." The Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning’s profound gaze was cast towards the chaos of the Myriad Realms.

At this moment, he was still unsure about acting against the Epoch of the Myriad Realms,

because he dared not bet, not willing to wager if at this time the Ancestor of Early Dawn was lying in wait for him to make a move.

His fellow disciple, always outwardly claiming to be inferior to himself, always playing the role of a victim.

But what about the reality?

This individual was the most dangerous.

Spouting these high-sounding speeches, yet his actions and behavior are even less satisfactory than his own.

Reviving the Master—who has always been his excuse.

On the surface, it was clear that he wished to consume our teacher’s remains to successfully step onto the Great Path.

But the Ancestor of Early Dawn, he certainly held greater schemes.

Qing Lan was deceived by him, otherwise, he would not have met such a terrible fate.

If he could kill the Ancestor of Early Dawn, the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning would not hesitate at all.

At this very moment, the Origin of the Myriad Realms, after muttering several names, fell into silence; but this silence was soon broken.

After a while, the Origin of the Myriad Realms uttered four words.

"Golden Holy Emperor!!!"

Upon hearing this name, all the Supremes’ expressions changed as they turned to look at the Origin of the Myriad Realms in unison.

Golden Holy Emperor?

Within the chaos, there are the Guardians of the Five Elements, who are proclaimed as the protectors of All Heavens.

These Guardians are actually appointed by the Origin of the Myriad Realms; they can inherit the power of the Origin and possess tremendous strength.

In their prime, the Guardians of All Heavens could even match the Pseudo-Supremes and put up a fight against the Supremes.

There were even rumors that the united force of the Guardians of the Five Elements could seal away a Supreme, which was why the Supremes had always been wary of them.

However, there was a price to pay.

While the Guardians of the Five Elements gained immense power, they were also subjected to the backlash of that mighty force.

Every time they utilized the power of the Origin of the Myriad Realms, their own primordial essence would be damaged.

The previous Realm Lord of the Flame Realm was mighty, ranking high among the Saint Emperors and capable of resisting a Supreme at his peak.

But though he enjoyed the power of a Saint Emperor, he did not receive the lifespan of one and eventually met the end of his life, becoming a sky full of stars that illuminated All Heavens.

Most importantly, the selection of each Guardian of the Five Elements was extremely strict.

They not only needed the approval of the previous Guardian but also the acknowledgment of other Guardians.

And the Golden Holy Emperor is currently the strongest and most ancient among the five Guardians.

He had fought for the Myriad Realms during the previous Epoch, his achievements were outstanding and he was adored by many powerful beings of All Heavens.

Even the other four Guardians greatly respected him and would heed his words and commands.

The betrayal of such an existence caught even the Origin Supremes off guard.

"The Guardians of the Five Elements, associated with the Origin of the Myriad Realms, presume themselves to be the enforcers of the Myriad Realms, and they hold immense authority; if Gold has truly rebelled..." the voice of the Origin Supreme spoke up.

In an instant, shock appeared on the faces of all Supremes.
