Chapter 3030: Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden

“You attempted to.”

The Martial Dao Prime Body looked at the tomb keeper and said slowly, “Tens of thousands of years ago, a huge change happened in Avici. It shook and almost collapsed, causing the Hell Suppression Tripod and Mara Mask to fall into Tianhuang Mainland.”

“You were near Avici back then. So, I’m guessing that you had something to do with that unforeseen event?”

When he heard that, the tomb keeper’s long eyebrows twitched slightly.

The Martial Dao Prime Body continued, “Previously, I guessed that you were Great Emperor Heaven Burial because I thought that you wanted to save Emperor Bo Xun who was trapped inside, causing this unforeseen event and the upheaval in Avici.”

“However, from the looks of it, that commotion should be because you wanted to save the Lord of Hell in Greater Avici!”

Since Emperor Bo Xun was one of the three corpses of Great Emperor Heaven Burial, he would not be in any danger in Avici. Instead, he could use Avici to cultivate.

Even in the battle back then when Emperor Bo Xun fell into Avici, the Martial Dao Prime Body even suspected that he might have done it on purpose!

If the change in Avici was really caused by the tomb keeper, there was only one possibility—it was not because of Bo Xun.

It was for the sake of the Lord of Hell trapped in Greater Avici.

“That’s right.”

The tomb keeper was calm after being guessed by the Martial Dao Prime Body and nodded.

Thereafter, the tomb keeper lowered his gaze and glanced at the Hell Suppression Tripod that had fallen by his feet. With a gentle move of his finger, the Hell Suppression Tripod flew towards the Martial Dao Prime Body.

The force was not strong and it was clear he was returning it. The Martial Dao Prime Body received it casually.

Immediately after, the tomb keeper said casually, “I crushed this tripod back then. Now, it’s as good as new.”

Indeed!

Back when he heard Heavenly Wolf mention it, the Martial Dao Prime Body wondered if the Hell Suppression Tripod was shattered in the Infinite Era or in the unforeseen event tens of thousands of years ago.

Today, he had finally gotten confirmation from the tomb keeper’s words.

Even if Great Emperor Infinite was already dead, the strength of the Fiend Lord was evident from the fact that he could crush this Great Emperor Weapon with his bare hands!

The tomb keeper said, “Infinite is indeed extraordinary. Even after I crushed the Hell Suppression Tripod, I could not save the Lord of Hell.”

“Unless we possess the power to destroy Greater Avici, the two of them will be trapped inside forever.”

Even the Fiend Lord could not do anything!

He once said that he and those few from the Heavenly Court had cultivation realms above Great Emperors. However, due to the restriction of Heaven and Earth laws, they could only unleash the combat strength of Great Emperors in the medium chiliocosm.

If even the Fiend Lord could not do anything, there was probably no one in the medium chiliocosm who could save Great Emperor Flame Heaven and the Lord of Hell!

Great Emperor Infinite sacrificed himself and used his flesh to forge Avici to trap the two Great Emperors. This move was truly powerful.

The Martial Dao Prime Body said, “You pushed me to Hell because you wanted me to have a relationship with Hell. That way, I’ll naturally stand with you guys against the Heavenly Court.”

“That’s right.”

The tomb keeper was extremely calm and relatively frank. “I did have those thoughts when I pushed you into Hell.”

“However, I had another consideration.”

“Once the Heaven Conquest Battle starts again, the Hell Army will have no leader and no one can restrict them. If they enter the medium chiliocosm, it will be a huge disaster for the living beings here.”

“If you become the new Lord of Hell, you can control this Hell Army and restrain them. At the very least, you won’t let the calamity of the Infinite Era happen again.”

“I believe you won’t refuse.”

The tomb keeper was right.

He gave the Martial Dao Prime Body a reason that he could not reject.

If this Hell Army was uncontrolled or fell into the hands of some extremely vicious person, who knew how much calamity it would cause in the medium chiliocosm.

Actually, even if the tomb keeper did not take the initiative to rope him in, given Su Zimo’s character, he would still choose to conquer the Nine Heavens in the end.

It was the same for Die Yue as well.

This was also the same choice made by most ancient Great Emperors!

Right from the beginning, Die Yue rarely spoke.

At that moment, she seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked, “Is the legendary Great Empress Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden related to the Nine Heavens?”

The tomb keeper smiled when he heard that. “You’re very smart.”

“The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden was originally from the Nine Heavens.”

“Although she was born in the Heavenly Court, she did not agree with their actions. Therefore, she descended into the medium chiliocosm and became a Great Emperor. She joined forces with us and started the first Heaven Conquest Battle!”

So, that was the case.

The ancient Great Empress Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden was originally from the Nine Heavens.

In other words, the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden could have had better choices.

She was born in the Heavenly Court. As long as she stepped into the Emperor realm, she could choose to ascend to the major chiliocosm at any time. There was no need for her to do any of what she did.

However, she still chose another path that was extremely difficult and had a slim chance of survival!

There were several Heaven Conquest Battles, but none of them succeeded.

Even in this generation, the Martial Dao Prime Body was not confident of participating in the Heaven Conquest Battle.

The foundation of the Heavenly Court was far more terrifying than he had imagined!

The Great Emperors of the Heavenly Court were not something that the Great Emperors of the medium chiliocosm could compare to.

At the very least, those Great Emperors had endless lifespans and immortality.

As for Great Emperors who attained the Dao in the medium chiliocosm, after they died, they would truly die and have no chance of revival!

However, the Martial Dao Prime Body guessed that although the Fiend Lord and a few Great Emperors of the Heavenly Court were said to be immortal, they were not without weaknesses.

If they were really beaten until their souls dissipated, it should probably take a long time for them to be reborn and recover to their peak.

Otherwise, every Heaven Conquest Battle would not have to wait for an era to begin.

In this generation, although the Heavenly Court only had eight Great Emperors, the Fiend Lord was also missing the Lord of Hell.

Furthermore, it was still unknown who could become a Great Emperor in the medium chiliocosm.

The Great Emperor of the medium chiliocosm was extremely important to the Heaven Conquest Battle!

If the Great Emperor was on the side of the Fiend Lord, they might stand a chance in the Heaven Conquest Battle.

If the Great Emperor was on the side of the Heavenly Court, the Fiend Lord would still have no chance of winning.

The Martial Dao Prime Body pondered for a moment. “In this generation, the Heavenly Court has eight Great Emperors. How many do you have on your side? You, Brahma Ghost Mother who is in charge of the Ghost Dao, and Empress Evil who is in charge of the Beast Dao. Who else is there?”

“The Lord of the Netherworld, the legendary Great Emperor Feng Du? So, a total of four people?”

“Feng Du?”

When the tomb keeper heard that name, his white brows twitched slightly and his expression fluctuated before disappearing rapidly.

“Hmm?”

The abnormality that flashed across the tomb keeper’s face was quickly captured by the Martial Dao Prime Body. He immediately asked, “Isn’t the Lord of the Netherworld a Great Emperor?”

Be it the existence of the Netherworld or the Lord of the Netherworld, they were both rather mysterious.

He had only heard about the Netherworld and Great Emperor Feng Du from Yaksha King Fear as well.

However, with Yaksha King Fear’s identity and strength, he probably did not know much about the Netherworld and the information might not be accurate.
