Chapter 1227: Determining the Battlefield
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor had a heavy expression on his face. If he accepted the adjudication battle, it meant that he would have agreed to the consequences that would happen after. He was naturally unwilling to take the risk.

However, the immortal realms were cruel. The Skymist Immortal Empire had the agreement with those that defected from the Evergreen Immortal Empire back then. Joining forces with the powers of the Eastern Regions. Wanting to take this opportunity to finish the Evergreen Immortal Empire off once and for all.

The other major powers in the Eastern Regions naturally didn't want to miss out on such a great opportunity to further strengthen and enrich themselves, while getting rid of another peak power.

As for those in the Evergreen Immortal Emperor's alliance, other than Matriarch Ji who came here for the sake of Qing`er, the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord, Southern Phoenix Clan, and Emperor Yu were here because of Qin Wentian. If an emperor-ranked battle truly erupted, he had no idea how much effort these immortal emperors on his side would be willing to put in.

After all he, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor, also didn't have the qualifications to ask others to fight for him.

He naturally was very aware of all of this.

"Since Emperor Yu is the follower of Ancient Emperor Yi. I want to ask that if I agree to the adjudication battle, what would the rules be?" The Evergreen Immortal Emperor asked.

"Since it's an adjudication battle, we have to pick a location first. How about the Myriad Devil Islands? Each side would send a hundred experts to participate, setting 10 years as the limit. All sort of methods are allowed, and after ten years, let's see whichever side would have the most survivors. The side with the most survivors would naturally be the victor. How about it?"

Emperor Yu spoke, causing the expressions of everyone to change. He actually suggested the location to be the Myriad Devil Islands. How ruthless was this?

But of course, only with the location being in the Myriad Devil Islands, would the adjudication battle be fair. If not, if the location was anywhere in the immortal realms, these immortal emperors would surely have ways of influencing things. Only in the Myriad Devil Islands, could they not do so.

Immortal emperors were forbidden from entering that place. Only those at the immortal-foundation and immortal king realm, were allowed in there, unless one is a devil cultivator.

In fact, there were quite a few immortal cultivators among the junior generations who would head into the devil islands to train themselves. The Myriad Devil Islands wouldn't reject any immortal-foundation characters. In fact, there were many who decided to enter the devil path after they went in, choosing to join some of the major powers in the devil islands, becoming disciples of the devil sects and cultivating in the devil arts. All this was considered very normal.

Despite this, wanting to set the location in the Myriad Devil Islands was an extremely risky decision. Both sides had to be very careful in considering who to send in. Who would dare to send all the true elite juniors under them inside? If their juniors died there, it would truly be an extremely heavy loss for any sect or clan. Also, they could not interfere if the location was in the Myriad Devil Islands. In addition, the devil cultivators naturally wouldn't care what your status or identity was in the immortal realms, they wouldn't give face to the immortal emperors and would kill you ruthlessly regardless of what your background might be.

And even if these juniors were to die within, they could do nothing about it.

Emperor Yu's suggestion was truly ruthless indeed.

In addition, there was still another layer of meaning hidden in Emperor Yu's suggestion. He knew that the immortal emperors might equip the juniors they sent with some powerful weapons. But in a place like the Myriad Devil Islands, if you used that level of divine weapon or treasure, you would only die even sooner.

Naturally, even with setting the battlefield to be in the Myriad Devil Islands, there was no way to guarantee absolute fairness. Both parties could still send immortal kings into there to aid the battle. Hence, this battle wasn't merely the battle of the hundred sent within. In truth, it was to see which of the sides were better prepared and had better methods.

"Myriad Devil Islands." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor murmured. But at this moment, a voice was transmitted to him, "Accept it."

The eyes of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor flashed, staring at the bottom of the ancient tree. He only saw Qing`er's beautiful eyes looking at him. Her clear gaze contained an unbendable determination.

Clearly, Qing`er also understood that if an emperor-ranked battle took place, the impact of casualties on both sides would be unimaginable. Without the absolute certainty where one side could completely vanquish the other, both sides would still fight while reserving some strength. For example for the Evergreen Immortal Emperor and his allies, they could easily kill some low-level ordinary immortal emperors. But the moment they did so, the other party would definitely do the same as well.

For example the White Emperor went over to the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect but he didn't annihilate them. It was only because an immortal king blocked him so he decided to finish that man off. If he chose to annihilate the entire sect without first killing the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor, the revenge the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor would wrought in the future, would definitely cause the Evergreen Immortal Empire to be extremely miserable.

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor didn't fear anything. But what about Qing`er?

Right now, the Skymist Alliance could no longer destroy the Evergreen Immortal Empire. In that case, they had to suppress their desires and not make a move recklessly. Hence, both parties were seriously considering Emperor Yu's suggestion.

If one side had the overwhelming advantage, there would be no need for the adjudication battle in this case.

At this moment, Emperor Yu actually transmitted his voice to the Evergreen Immortal Emperor. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor blinked, but he soon regained his calm. He lifted his head and stared at the air before he spoke, "I agree, if my side is defeated in this adjudication battle, I will accept the consequences."

The expression of the Skymist Immortal Emperor turned heavy. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor actually agreed to it?

To them, this was similarly a difficult question. If they accept the adjudication battle, who should they send to the Myriad Devil Islands to participate in this?

"How about the Skymist Immortal Empire?" Emperor Yu turned his gaze over, staring at the Skymist Immortal Emperor as he asked.

"If the Skymist Immortal Empire doesn't agree to the battle, there's no meaning anymore to them invoking the adjudication rulings. And hence, the Evergreen Immortal Empire has no need to comply with it. If that's the case, we can continue commencing the emperor-ranked battle." Emperor Yu coldly spoke. His strength garnered respect, if he didn't unleash the arrow that could injure an immortal emperor, how could these people pay any attention to him? Most probably, they would think he didn't even have the qualifications to speak here.

It was just like back then in the past in the God Hand Mountain Manor, if Emperor Yu didn't unleash his strength, how could the Violet Emperor and Eastern Sage take him seriously?

"Fine." The Skymist Immortal Emperor nodded, finally choosing to compromise. Their so-called alliance was in fact not as solid as on the surface. Everyone who joined it did so purely because of the benefits. If a war truly broke out, nobody knew how many powers would pull out.

This time, their scheme to divide the Evergreen Immortal Empire has failed. In that case, they could only wait for other opportunities and first try to obtain victory in the adjudication battle.

"In that case three months from now, each side would select a hundred immortal-foundation juniors and we will meet at the entrance of the Myriad Devil Islands. Everyone, you all can feel free to return now." Emperor Yu's voice was as calm as ever. All the emperors here glanced at him, from today onwards, no one else would ever dare to underestimate this reclusive immortal emperor from the God Hand Mountain Manor.

His cultivation base might be extremely high.

For characters like Emperor Yu, nobody knew how many of them had chosen to live the life of a recluse in random corners of the immortal realms. Maybe, the beggar you saw on the street might be a supreme expert who had the power to dominate the heavens.

"Let's go, there's no more point in remaining here." The Skymist Immortal Emperor waved his hand. His divine elephant mount trumpeted as he soared through the skies.

The Paragon Sword Emperor and the others had looks of reluctance on their faces. They had already joined the Skymist Immortal Empire's alliance and had completely offended the Evergreen Immortal Empire, yet they failed to finish it in one attempt. The appearance of the Southern Phoenix Clan and Emperor Yu, caused all their plans to go awry.

"The Myriad Devil Islands?" The White Tiger Demon Emperor glanced below before he departed as well.

Very swiftly, all the immortal emperors vanished from the Evergreen Immortal Empire with flashes of light.

The gigantic ancient Eternal Evergreen Tree retracted its branches and vines at the speed of lightning. Not too long after, when the people in the imperial city gazed up into the air, everything returned to normal. The supreme experts at the emperor-level have all disappeared, the emperor-ranked battle came to an end.

The Eternal Evergreen Tree once again sank deep into the ground, disappearing from sight.

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor slowly soared through the air. He then clasped his hands towards Matriarch Ji, Emperor Yu, Nanfeng Guhong and the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord as he spoke, "Evergreen thanks all of you for coming here to assist me today."

"Evergreen, the adjudication battle would be extremely dangerous. Leaving aside their opponents, the place is set in the Myriad Devil Islands. We would have no control over there. What are your intentions?" Matriarch Ji asked as she stared at the Evergreen Immortal Emperor.

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor sighed, "That war in the past truly caused too much casualties to my empire. Not only did many experts die, some of the talented juniors were slaughtered as well. This is why the amount of talent in my empire now is so low. In any case, Qin Wentian since you are fond of Qing`er, this battle would affect her future. You don't wish for her to marry into the Skymist Immortal Empire, right?"

Qin Wentian inclined his head and stared at the Evergreen Immortal Emperor in the air. He was holding on to Qing`er's hands, and under the gazes of all the supreme experts, he was as calm as ever, indicating the resolution in his heart.

"I will head to the Myriad Devil Islands and fight for the sake of protecting Qing`er." Qin Wentian solemnly spoke.

"Good. The time limit for this battle is set at 10 years. If you can return alive and our side is victorious, I will betroth my daughter to you." Evergreen announced publicly, causing Qin Wentian's eyes to flash. Even Qing`er also froze when he heard that, her cool eyes gleaming with a strange light.

After that, they tightened their hold on each other hands, feeling the warmth of their palms in contact.

"I will send some of my disciples to participate." Matriarch Ji spoke.

"Master." Qing`er inclined her head to stare at Matriarch Ji.

"Qing`er, there's no need for you to feel guilty about what happened in the sacred academy. This time, the adjudication battle also didn't happen solely because of you. Your senior apprentice sisters, which will be heading over the Myriad Devil Islands with you, will take this as a tempering exercise. How could one become a supreme expert without facing countless situations of life and death? Let this be a form of training to you juniors." Matriarch Ji calmly spoke.

"My Southern Phoenix Clan will select and send some experts to join the battle." Nanfeng Guhong spoke.

"Many thanks senior." Qin Wentian bowed.

"I will also choose some people to participate in this together with Qin Wentian." The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord spoke, expressing his attitude.

"Since this is the case, everyone please head back to prepare. After three months, the location will be set at the entrance of the Myriad Devil Islands." Emperor Yu spoke. He then glanced at Qin Wentian and spoke, "Little fellow, do not let down the honor of the identity as Ancient Emperor Yi's successor."

"Yes, senior." Qin Wentian nodded. He understood that there was another layer of meaning to Emperor Yu's words.

In the ancient mountain, he didn't merely receive Emperor Yi's inheritance, he also gained the identity of the Saint Lord of the Battle Saint Tribe. As for Emperor Yu, he was also a member of that tribe.

"I will leave first." Emperor Yu's silhouette flashed, soaring up into the sky and disappearing in an instant.

Nanfeng Guhong deeply glanced at Qin Wentian. Back then, nobody knew exactly what happened within that ancient mountain. Emperor Yu was the servant of Ancient Emperor Yi and Qin Wentian was Yi's successor. But did the two of them merely have this bit of relationship?

For those experts who followed Qin Wentian, it was pretty obvious that they were from an ancient tribe. However, there wasn't such a powerful tribe in the entire immortal realms. In that case, where did they originate from?
