# Chapter 1479: Gathering of Powerhouses

"Those who were killed first were all Martial Emperors who were ambushed!" The crowd's expressions were grim, especially those Martial Emperors. They had never imagined that Martial Emperors they had schemed against would fall so easily. No one felt joy at this moment, only a sense of sorrow for their own kind.

Moreover, they had begun hunting Martial Emperors who hadn't been ambushed. The first to bear the brunt was Yu Emperor.

"Three Martial Emperor powerhouses!" Yu Emperor's face stiffened. The people approaching him included three Martial Emperor powerhouses. Such a lineup was terrifying. Furthermore, two more Martial Emperors were standing by, as if ready to strike down anyone who dared to interfere with their battle.

In total, five Martial Emperors were preparing to eliminate Yu Emperor and his group. The other two Martial Emperors were on the other side, currently targeting Sikong Martial Emperor. Another Martial Emperor was still fighting Yan Emperor. Yan Emperor's strength was formidable, but he increasingly felt powerless, as if he might collapse and be destroyed at any moment.

"I never thought I, Yan Emperor, would fall here!" A look of grief and indignation appeared in Yan Emperor's eyes. He couldn't escape death today. The other emperors were still protecting themselves, or rather, they dared not act. Poisoned, their strength was weakened, and they had lost that sense of control. Now, their thoughts were more focused on how to leave this place.

Although those Martial Emperors were following the Mid-rank Emperor's orders to deal with Yu Emperor, who knew if they would be the next targets if they made a move? Besides, that Mid-rank Emperor hadn't made his move yet!

And who exactly were the people in the shadows?

"Speed it up!" A cold voice rang out from the Mid-rank Emperor's mouth. Instantly, the three Martial Emperors' bodies vanished.

"Boom!" The moment the enemy moved, Yu Emperor stomped the ground, and his body was instantly buried by the earth, carrying Lin Feng and the others away. Yu Emperor, who was skilled in Earth Law, undoubtedly had a natural advantage when standing on the ground.

"Chi, chi..." The earth shattered. A Martial Emperor used a terrifying Void Sword to tear the ground apart, creating horrifying cracks. The extremely hard ground was so fragile before a Martial Emperor. The ground split apart, forming cliffs and precipices, a shocking sight.

The three Martial Emperors' figures disappeared, charging into the earth cliffs, directly smashing into them.

"Boom!" When Yu Emperor's body reappeared, he was covered in a suit of earth-yellow armor. Lin Feng and the others were the same. Yu Emperor had used the power of Law to condense a set of Earth Armor for all of them; otherwise, they couldn't withstand the aftershocks.

"Illusion!" A voice suddenly rang out. The power of Illusion Law spread through the void. Suddenly, Lin Feng found himself separated from his teacher and the others, each in an independent space. In the eyes of others, they were cut off by an illusory wall.

"You two go deal with that Martial Emperor. I'll kill the others!" A voice rang out. Then, two people headed toward Yu Emperor, while the speaker stepped toward Lin Feng and the other three.

"Chi..." At that moment, a surge of overwhelming Killing Law intent swept over him, causing his steps to pause slightly.

"Move!" The Mid-rank Emperor standing there coldly shouted. The Martial Emperor, who had paused for a moment, took another step forward, advancing toward Lin Feng.

"Whoosh!" A terrifying oppressive force pressed down on Lin Feng, making his whole body tighten, as if he were suffocating. Although he was already at the Sixth Layer of Venerable Martial Realm Peak, when truly facing a Martial Emperor, he still felt insignificant. This was the gap in cultivation level. Martial Emperors weren't omnipotent; they could die too, but only when facing those stronger than themselves. Once a Martial Emperor faced a Venerable Martial cultivator, they possessed absolute power, controlling their lives. Lin Feng now felt a sense of being controlled by others.

The man extended his hand and then suddenly clenched it. Lin Feng felt as if he were being forcibly grabbed, controlled by the power of Law.

"Die!"

An icy killing intent spat from the man's mouth. Lin Feng felt like he was suffocating, his face pale. Facing a Martial Emperor's Law power, he had no ability to resist. This was absolute suppression.

"No..." Surging Sword Intent and rolling demonic energy erupted from Lin Feng's body. How could he allow himself to be killed like this? The demonic light grew stronger and stronger. Just as the power of Void Law was about to tear his body apart, suddenly, a Sword Intent that pierced the heavens descended. Lin Feng felt as if the oppressive Space Law attack had been severed, forcibly cut through by that heaven-piercing sword energy.

"Who!" The Martial Emperor who wanted to kill Lin Feng shot a sharp cold light from his eyes. Who had severed the power of Law?

In the distance, an oppressive force so strong it was suffocating rolled in. It was sword energy, lawless sword energy, like a sword tsunami surging from ancient times, growing more terrifying by the moment.

"Dong!"

A crisp footstep pulsed within the heaven-piercing sword energy. This light step directly entered the hearts of the crowd. A simple step seemed to resonate with heaven and earth.

"Which powerhouse has arrived now?"

The crowd's hearts trembled violently. This aura was enough to shake anyone. Everyone's gaze involuntarily turned toward the staircase outside the Heavenly Gate in the distance.

"Dong!" Another light sound. Then, on the last step of the hundred-thousand-step staircase, a figure slowly materialized. Appearing there was an aged old man, his face wrinkled, full of the marks of time. However, his eyes were filled with overwhelming sharpness. As he slowly walked toward the Heavenly Gate, he seemed to look down upon all heavens.

"So strong!" Everyone's hearts trembled. The Martial Emperor who wanted to kill Lin Feng stiffened when he saw this aged figure. The other party was preventing him from killing Lin Feng. With such a terrifying powerhouse protecting him, he couldn't kill Lin Feng.

The Mid-rank Emperor's gaze also froze, his expression unpleasant.

"It's him!" Qi Emperor's expression shifted as he stared at the approaching old man. The old man's long beard fluttered in the wind. Though he appeared aged, his back was ramrod straight. He had seen this old man before, at the Sword Pavilion, when he went to retrieve the Skyless Sword!

"This matter seems to have nothing to do with you, sir!" At this moment, the Mid-rank Emperor looked at the old man and asked.

"You've gone too far," the old man said softly, as if implying something.

The Mid-rank Emperor's eyes grew sharper and sharper. However, the peerless killing aura locking onto him was still present. He couldn't move recklessly. Facing an opponent of this level, he had to go all out and couldn't afford to be distracted.

"Whoosh!" In the void, another figure stepped forward, his aura vast and powerful, killing intent filling heaven and earth, extremely terrifying.

"Mid-rank Emperor!" The crowd's expressions froze. Another terrifying Mid-rank Emperor powerhouse. When his eyes swept over the crowd, everyone felt a chill.

"My partner, clean them up!" The locked-on Mid-rank Emperor said coldly with a laugh.

"Alright!" A hoarse voice came from the newly appeared man's mouth, killing intent strong. However, at that moment, sounds of "pu pu" rang out continuously. Figures wearing identical outfits appeared in the void. They seemed to have materialized out of thin air, and each wore a bamboo hat, their faces unidentifiable.

"You're too impatient." The person on the north side had the longest bamboo hat, covering half his body. A low voice came from his mouth, carrying a hint of calmness.

"Watchers, eighteen of them!" The crowd's expressions stiffened. How could there be eighteen of them? And each one had a powerful aura.

Lin Feng was also stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared in his eyes. He thought to himself, "It seems my thinking was too simple. As long as one puts on that outfit and wears that bamboo hat, anyone could become a Watcher. How could the number of Watchers be limited!"

The members of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance also stiffened, coldness in their eyes.

"Watcher Father!" The Mid-rank Emperor who had just appeared looked at the Watcher whose bamboo hat covered half his body and said softly, "It seems you've prepared thoroughly."

"If I hadn't prepared thoroughly, how could I deal with you?" Watcher Father replied calmly, then waved his hand. The Watchers produced dazzling arrows in their hands, each locking onto the Emperor-Slaying Alliance powerhouses below.

The other party didn't respond to his words. The newly appeared Mid-rank Emperor's gaze fell on the aged old man in the distance. Besides the old man, the number of Mid-rank Emperors was two against two. Only the old man was a variable.

"I hope you won't get involved," the man said to the old man.

"I'm just here to protect a few people. The grudges between you have nothing to do with this old man," the old man said calmly, as if seeing through the changes of the world.

"Thank you, sir," the man said calmly, then looked at Watcher Father again: "I still have more Martial Emperors on my side."

"Do you really think the Martial Emperors of the Eight Wastelands Realm and the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms can only be slaughtered?" Watcher Father spoke calmly to the other party. Below, the Watchers and the Emperor-Slaying Alliance had begun their clash.

"Roar..." A rolling roar shook heaven and earth. A sky-covering staff shadow appeared in the sky. Great Ape Emperor went berserk, transforming into a giant ape, his pitch-black body like an iron tower, holding a thick black staff. He swung it fiercely at a member of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance. With a booming explosion, the man tried to dodge but couldn't escape the staff shadow's coverage, being smashed to death by the staff.

"He still has such terrifying power?" The crowd's expressions stiffened. What a ferocious and violent Great Ape Emperor.

"Are you all just going to wait to die?" Great Ape Emperor's bell-like giant eyes swept over the crowd, his voice rolling, as if trying to wake them up.

Many Martial Emperor powerhouses' hearts were stirred. They began to release their powerful auras. With the help of the Watchers and other powerhouses, it wouldn't be so easy for the Emperor-Slaying Alliance to hunt them.
