Chapter 2071: Firmament Supreme! (1/2)
The Sky Official knew that the Earth Official was not someone so easily slain.
”But the other side is no longer being just arrogant. Must we really sit here and pretend to ignore them?”
The Water Official was still seething with anger and killing intent.
”There's no rush. Venerable Firmament Supreme has sent word to restrain ourselves and give him one day. In just one day, he can come out and help us eradicate this foe,” the Sky Official said.
He had the highest status of the three officials, and he was in constant contact with Firmament Supreme.
The Water Official's eyes flashed with killing intent, his hands clenching and unclenching. But in the end, he chose to compromise.
He was the weakest of the three officials, even weaker than the Earth Official. If he left without the Sky Official's cooperation, he would be sending himself to his death.
”Ah!”
At this moment, the two of them suddenly heard a shrill scream from nearby.
This was clearly one of their subordinates.
The two of them paled.
”Bastard!”
The Water Official's robe rustled as he got to his feet, his fists clenching.
These scoundrels weren't just being cocky. They were essentially pushing right up to their faces.
It was outrageous to the extreme!
”Wait!”
Before he could leave, a slender and forceful hand pulled him back.
The Sky Official carefully listened, a grave look on his face.
”Be wary of tricks!”
His Psychic Energy flowed out, engulfing his surroundings, but he found no trace of the other party's energy.
The only energy signals for the surrounding one thousand feet were the unique energy signals of the men in black.
Bang!
Just when the Water Official was hesitating, a scream came from the distance, but this was a voice that both of them were familiar with.
”Black Fire!”
The Water Official trembled in shock.
Black Fire was a trusted subordinate of the three officials, one of the captains of the three-hundred-some men in black stationed here. Each of the captains was a peak Great General, nearing the Subtle realm.
The three officials guarded the golden palace, leaving many matters to the captains.
The Water Official had not expected the enemy to already be attacking Black Water and the others.
Bang!
The Water Official broke free of the Sky Official's grip and shot out through the door.
”Water Official!”
The Sky Official grimaced and instinctively rushed after him. The Water Official was weaker than the Earth Official, and carelessly going over was essentially suicide.
”Not good!”
The three officials had been tasked with one other important mission besides guarding the teleportation gate. This was to guard the massive formation that covered the surrounding seventy to eighty li.
The moment he left the hall, the Sky Official sensed another energy entering it.
And when he turned his head, in the light of the torches in the hall, he saw a black-robed figure appearing in the hall like a ghost.
As if noticing the Sky Official's gaze, that man turned around and eerily smiled at him.
”No!”
The Sky Official felt his heart seize up, and he now understood what was going on.
Luring the tiger from the mountain!
The enemy was not one person, and they had killed Black Fire precisely to lure the two of them out of the hall, so that…
They could gain access to the azure crystal that served as the core of the formation!
The Sky Official felt his heart stop when he saw that eerie smile.
Bang!
There was no time to react. In the hall, Divine Embryo 1 unleashed all of its Stellar Energy and punched at the azure crystal.
”No!”
The Sky Official's eyes flew open as he cried out and lunged into the hall, but it was too late.
