, Chapter 6823: Illusion and Annihilation

Upon hearing this, Zhang Qingqing paused, then said, “It’s uncertain. If you’re lucky, other disciples might join the battle quickly. If you’re unlucky, it could take several months. You can try it; you can always withdraw before your opponent appears.”

Li Tianming nodded, “Understood.”

Zhang Qingqing added, “One more thing, once you use this privilege, because there are so few Golden Circle disciples under the Emperor’s command, the next Golden Circle disciple to step onto the stage is likely to automatically become your opponent.” “

So, how do I use this privilege?” Li Tianming asked, puzzled.

“As long as you become a disciple within the Golden Circle, this once-a-year opportunity is still available. Participate in the battle within the Golden Circle, and take a step forward when the golden light rises to trigger it,” Zhang Qingqing explained earnestly.

“Okay, I understand. Thank you for your explanation, Senior Sister Zhang. I’ll go try it now,” Li Tianming nodded.

After speaking, he turned and headed straight for the Golden Circle in the very center of the five-colored circle. After injecting the power of the God of the Universe into the battle token, a golden light barrier rose around him, completely engulfing him.

He took a step forward, stepping out of the golden light before it dissipated, and arrived at a slightly different place.

The scene before him changed, and Li Tianming found himself in a special Emperor’s Battle Arena. The array on this arena was noticeably more solid and larger.

Li Tianming waited listlessly for his opponent to appear, time slowly passing…

…

Meanwhile, in an exquisite private room within the Myriad Emperors Palace, adorned with iridescent, glass-like Dao minerals, sat a young boy and girl.

The boy had a handsome face, a high nose, and clear, bright eyes like a deep pool; his long, black hair stood on end. The girl’s eyes were like shimmering autumn water, full of affection, and as she spoke with the boy, two shallow dimples appeared on her lips.

If others saw them, they would surely exclaim that they were a perfect couple.

What was strange was that these two affectionate lovers looked remarkably alike.

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that apart from their clothing, their facial features were exactly the same!

Inside this exquisite private room was a video projection screen, like a giant floor-to-ceiling window. Viewers could freely choose any of the Emperor’s Battle Arena for the clearest and best viewing angle.

At this moment, the screen displayed Li Tianming, with his golden-black eyes, white hair, and imposing figure exuding imperial power.

He stood on the Emperor’s Battle Arena, quietly awaiting his opponent.

The young woman in the room, looking at the projection, said, “Isn’t this the disciple of that Li Tianming? I heard his backing is quite mysterious. Although it’s only a level nine star system, it almost wiped out a great imperial family.”

“How do you know this?” the young man asked coldly. The

young woman explained with interest, “The Heavenly Emperor Sect was all over the news recently. Of course I know. Although a small great imperial family isn’t much, like a grasshopper, compared to them, a level nine star system is like dust.”

“And yet, in the end, the dust killed the grasshopper in the struggle between the two forces. That’s quite unexpected.” At this point, the young woman let out a silvery laugh, seemingly finding it amusing.

The boy remained silent, offering no response.

The girl, however, didn’t pursue the topic further, instead staring intently at the emperor-like figure in the image, so different from the somewhat effeminate boy beside her, lost in thought.

After a moment, she parted her red lips slightly and said, “This Li Tianming is quite mysterious. It’s said he accomplished the feat of fighting the Golden Circle with the Earth Circle—something even the nine guardian imperial clans of the Heavenly Emperor Sect haven’t achieved.”

“What do you think of him?” the boy asked.

“He has a special aura, giving me the feeling of an Emperor-level cultivator, and he’s quite handsome,” the girl said, biting her lip.

“I’m talking about strength,” the boy said, his tone slightly cold.

The girl rolled her eyes. “How would I know about strength? I haven’t fought him. If you’re curious, go try it.” The

boy didn’t reply, turning and leaving the private room, descending to the Golden Circle at the very center of the five-colored circle, and unhesitatingly channeling the power of the God of the Universe into the battle token.

Several golden beams rose from beneath his feet, instantly transporting him before Li Tianming.

The entire process was fluid and incredibly swift. The young woman slightly opened her mouth and muttered to herself, “You really went…”

After saying that, she didn’t stay in the private room any longer and went directly to the foot of the Emperor’s Battle Platform, preparing to watch the battle up close.

Having not participated in the Ten Thousand Emperors Battle for hundreds of years, Li Tianming’s arrival had naturally attracted countless people’s attention.

Therefore, many were curious about who his opponent would be.

Finally, the golden light of the teleportation array rose before Li Tianming’s eyes.

He had finally awaited his opponent, and thought to himself, “They came quite quickly. Looks like I’m lucky; there are just the top hundred disciples within ten thousand years participating.”

However, as a golden light slowly disappeared, revealing the true face of the figure within, the Ten Thousand Emperors Palace erupted in chaos!

“It’s actually ‘Huansheng’! This is a genius from the ‘Huantian Emperor Clan’! A super genius ranked in the top twenty below the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking, already at the Dao Ancestor realm.”

“Li Tianming is doomed to lose this time. No matter how strong he is, he absolutely cannot defeat this opponent.”

“For most disciples of the Heavenly Emperor Sect, becoming a Young Emperor disciple is enough to strive for a lifetime, while becoming a Great Emperor disciple is the ultimate pursuit. For a super genius like Huansheng, becoming a Great Emperor disciple is just a transition.” “

After he grows up, he will inevitably become a pillar of the Heavenly Emperor Sect, just like his grandfather!”

The Emperor Battle Platform isolates the destruction of the battle but not the sound, so Li Tianming naturally heard the uproar.

He looked at the young man in front of him and felt a sense of familiarity.

“Huantian Emperor Clan? What does this have to do with the Huantian God Clan?” Li Tianming raised an eyebrow, feeling curious.

Aurora whispered in his ear, “The Illusionary Heavenly Emperor Clan is one of the nine guardian imperial clans under the Li Clan, meaning it’s practically one of the most profound families in the Heavenly Emperor Sect.”

She continued, “The Illusionary Heavenly Emperor Clan is indeed somewhat similar to the Illusionary Heavenly God Clan. They are both born as husband and wife, able to fight together, and of course, they are also Illusionary God cultivators.”

“Illusionary God cultivators?” Li Tianming’s heart stirred slightly.

“Since they are also born as husband and wife, why isn’t his ‘wife’ on the stage?” Li Tianming was slightly puzzled.

“According to the old rules, in the Illusionary Heavenly God Clan, husband and wife are considered a single combat unit, but in this outer universe… it seems that the Illusionary Heavenly Emperor Clan separates them.” Aurora said softly.

Li Tianming understood, then his gaze searched below the Emperor’s Battle Stage. Sure enough, he found a woman who looked almost exactly like Huan Sheng.

Aurora said, “The opponent in front of you is called Huan Sheng, and his ‘wife’ is called Huan Mie. Their grandfather is one of the Supreme Ancestors of the Heavenly Emperor Sect.”

Li Tianming asked in surprise, “So strong? Then they’re practically at the level to leave their legacy in the tower’s core.”

“Yes, and their talent is also very high. Sooner or later, they should become figures of that level as well,” Aurora added.

Hearing this, Li Tianming became even more determined. “High talent is good, otherwise, the fights won’t be as exciting!”

“One or two, it doesn’t really matter to me. I just need to win the battle.” Li Tianming drew his Eastern Emperor Sword and stared directly at his opponent.

However, the other party looked at Li Tianming coldly, making him feel a sense of hostility for no reason.

“Strange…” Li Tianming couldn’t help but mutter.

But since they hadn’t made enemies, he still clasped his hands in a normal manner and said, “Mu Yun Palace, Li Tianming, please enlighten me, Senior Brother.”

The handsome young man, Huan Sheng, remained indifferent and didn’t say a word.
