Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1669 The Heavenly Court's Choice

Gu Linyu nodded and said, "Let me recover from my injuries first, damn it!"

Ye Qing nodded.

After settling down, Cao Luo frowned and said, "This is indeed a big problem. Now that I've removed the mark, I estimate that the Emperor of Cause and Effect can sense it!"

"Was your mark planted by the Emperor of Cause and Effect?" the big yellow dog asked.

Cao Luo nodded and said, "Yes!"

“When we get out, he definitely won’t let us go!” Cao Luo said. “We really need to find a way to leave this place, but this place is too strange. We’re allowed to enter, but not leave!”

"Kid!" the big yellow dog said, "This is somewhat similar to your sacred rice paddy!"

Ye Qing nodded and said, "It's somewhat similar, but also different. It seems that anyone can come in here, but no one is allowed to leave! As for the place where the Holy Rice Paddy is located, only I can enter!"

At this point, Ye Qing pondered and said, "Silly dog, we need to think about this carefully. If we are trapped here, is there any way to safely evacuate when we leave in the future?"

The big yellow dog pondered and said, "Actually, it's not entirely without a solution. The opening of this temple will inevitably attract all the experts above the Great Emperor level in the world. On the Heavenly Court side, the Radiant Emperor is dead, leaving only eight Great Emperors. And Gu Yanzhi is actually on our side. If Wang Miao also leaves at the last moment, the other side will only have seven Great Emperors!"

"On our side, if Zhang Tianlin, Tianjue, Wang Miao, Gu Yanzhi, and Yongle also have five Great Emperors, plus Xie Bi'an!" the big yellow dog said, "that's equivalent to having six, six against seven. But lacking authority and the Seven Secrets of the Universe, it's very difficult. However, if it's just about covering the retreat, there's still a chance!"

"The problem is that most people will likely choose to evacuate beforehand," the big yellow dog said. "As for if we get surrounded, I really can't think of a way to escape!"

"I'll think about it some more in the meantime!" said the big yellow dog.

Gu Linyu walked to the side and sat down cross-legged.

Ye Qing and Lin Qianyu sighed, and then Ye Qing asked thoughtfully, "Is there any way to stay in the temple a little longer?"

The big yellow dog shook its head again and said, "Don't even think about it. The temple has been opened countless times, and I've never heard of anyone being able to stay inside it."

"Don't think about it so much. You should focus on your cultivation first. Every bit of improvement is good!" the big yellow dog said. "We still need to figure out a way to get out of this awful place first!"

"Okay!" Ye Qing nodded.

He stopped thinking about it and sat down cross-legged!

……

Meanwhile, on the other side, in a desolate wilderness, the Emperor of Cause and Effect was calculating with his fingers as he moved forward!

After the battle of the Land of Fairness, he parted ways with the other emperors. At this time, he was with the Queen Mother of the West, using the Way of Deduction to seek some resources!

After a long while, his pupils suddenly contracted and he exclaimed, "Hmm!"

"What's wrong? What did you find?" the Queen Mother of the West asked with a delighted expression.

"Cao Luo's soul imprint has disappeared!" Emperor Karma said, his expression turning somewhat grim.

"Cao Luo?" The Queen Mother of the West frowned and asked, "Is it that little fellow with spatial abilities?"

"Yes!" Emperor of Cause and Effect nodded and said, "Could it be that he died here?"

The Queen Mother of the West's expression shifted slightly as she said, "It would be fine if he died here, but what I fear is that he found the Purifying God Seal and erased the soul imprint on his body!"

Emperor Causality's expression shifted slightly as he said, "I'm afraid we need to find Apocalypse first. If it's a soul imprint, we'll have to devise a different plan!"

……

Two days later!

At this moment, on a majestic mountaintop, the seven emperors of the Heavenly Court stood firmly.

Emperor Tianqi looked around, his brow furrowed, and said, "Could it be that Yaoguang really died at Ye Qing's hands?"

"Gu Yanzhi didn't come either!" Emperor Karma said. "It seems that Gu Yanzhi has finally made his choice!"

"Speak, what is it!" Emperor Tianqi said, looking at Emperor Yinhuang.

Emperor Karma briefly explained the matter, and after listening, the emperors all fell silent!

After a long silence, Emperor Xingyue spoke up: "This is a matter of great importance. If it really is the Purifying God Seal, then it will be a huge problem for us!"

“Let’s move it forward!” Just then, a man dressed in brightly colored clothes spoke up. It was the Ancient Emperor. He calmly said, “There are still several years before the temple ends. There’s no need for us to linger here. As long as this universe remains under our rule, we will have a chance to obtain something when the temple opens in the future!”

“But Cao Luo’s mark has truly been erased. Letting them leave with the Purifying God Seal will shake the very foundation of the Heavenly Court’s rule over the universe!” The Ancient Emperor said, “Compared to the fortuitous encounters we might find in the next few years, I think it is most important for us to go out and ambush them on the outskirts!”

"They probably don't expect us to choose to ambush them. They'll come out one after another, and we might be able to kill all the Great Emperors outside the temple!" the Ancient Emperor said. "Even if they all come out, we still have an absolute advantage in terms of divine artifacts, the number of Great Emperors, authority, and the Seven Secrets of the Universe!"

“Instead of letting Ye Qing and the others escape again, now that Ye Qing and his group have all reached the Venerable level, the consequences of them continuing to grow stronger would be unimaginable!” the Ancient Emperor said.

"Reconsideration!"

"Reconsideration!"

……

One voice after another rang out!

Emperor Tianqi remained silent for a long time, then took a deep breath and said, "In that case... then give the order for everyone to leave the temple in advance and set up a tight net around the temple! Wait for them to come out!"

……

Ye Qing was naturally unaware of the Heavenly Court's sudden change in plans!

He was meditating cross-legged at that moment!

To Ye Qing's surprise, capturing the rhythm of the Great Dao was surprisingly easy in this chaotic place.

Over the course of a few days, the intensity of his Dao rhythm actually increased significantly!
