Chapter 1484: Entering Second Rank (II)
“Everyone, we are living through an eventful autumn! The battle of Red Moon Region has affected Skyward Region and the major world we reside on. All of us may find it hard to avoid being implicated in the days to come!” intoned the leader of Dragon Observatory. “A critical development is that some anomalies have taken place in the world recently. Everyone should’ve sensed them as well! This may be an omen... if that is the case, then Skyward will soon become the heart of attention from nearby regions!
“If a major world is truly going to give birth to a dao universe again... It is easy to foresee that whether it is seventh rank or even eighth rank exalted emperors, all of them might be tempted to claim it for themselves.
“It is mid ranks that are the main fighting force in the chaos at present.” There was no need to hide anything at this stage. The leader looked on solemnly. “Another critical point is that large numbers of sixth rank exalted emperors may seek to take advantage of this opportunity and ascend to seventh rank. They will truly be high rank exalted emperors that way!
“There are only four sixth ranks at Skyward at the moment, but that doesn’t mean there will continue to be only four!”
The group turned over his words. The two exalted emperors from other regions hesitated and looked at each other.
“Then we will be imposing on Fellow Daoist Dragon,” one of them said after prolonged silence. “We might be visiting Dragon Observatory for a few days.”
“Welcome!” The Dragon Observatory leader brightened. This was indeed his fortuitous opportunity! Two mid ranks had suddenly chosen to join his banner. While their inclusion wasn’t certain, it wasn’t likely that the two would leave if further trouble quickly developed.
That meant Dragon Observatory’s ranks had just swelled to eighteen exalted emperors—no, nineteen. He’d almost forgotten about one that’d just joined. The two new additions also had multiple exalted emperors who answered to him. They were only first or second rank, but still strong enough to be significant.
That would make for more than twenty exalted emperors fighting for Dragon Observatory. Even a mid world couldn't support so many.
The Dragon Observatory leader suddenly didn’t care about who was responsible for killing five exalted emperors. Their actions had created an opportunity for him.
The killer was likely a decrepit fifth rank! He could even utilize special methods to raise his battle strength to sixth rank. It was best to stay out of the way of someone like this. He could investigate further, but decided to set it aside after further thought.
The Dragon Observatory leader suddenly laughed and waved a hand, dismissing all of the water energy in the air and leaving behind only sword intent. The other exalted emperors raised their brows at this gesture.
