Matei Divine cast him a disdainful glance. "People often say the guardian god of Star Soul Continent, the Ten Directions Divine Emperor, is so powerful, so virtuous, protecting peace in all directions. Hmph, in this god's eyes, he's merely all show!"
"..." The assembled deities were speechless.
Matei Divine continued his reprimand, "If the ten of you had truly united earlier, with no ulterior motives, to suppress, even forcibly crush the sun, you wouldn't be in such a passive, even helpless, situation now, requiring this god to personally intervene."
Snow Emperor spoke deferentially, "Matei Divine, your teachings are correct. We implore you, for the sake of all beings, to save them. Otherwise, it will be a purgatory."
With the demonic star burned to ashes and its soul returned to its origins, Matei Divine turned to Ming Zhi Tian. "I see your immortal spiritual energy is surging. Are you interested in joining forces with this god to resist?"
Ming Zhi Tian nodded. "It is Ming Zhi Tian's fortune to partner with Senior."
"Hmph." Matei Divine immediately unleashed the Five Elements Nine Divine Dragon Roar, gathering his power.
Ming Zhi Tian raised his swordless hand, first consolidating his defenses. "Ascension Eternal! Purple Qi Comes From The East!"
He then summoned two primordial spirit avatars, aiming their accumulated power at the sun's light and unleashing a fierce blow! "Sweeping Across The Nine Provinces! Azure Dragon Heavenly Roar!"
The ten blood demons and the two primordial spirit avatars continuously channeled immortal spiritual energy into Ming Zhi Tian!
Matei Divine followed with a crushing blow of five cannon-like forces! The spatial magnetic field crackled and hissed!
He didn't forget to look at Ming Zhi Tian. "Borrowing the gravity of all things? This god is pleased that you have awakened to this."
Ming Zhi Tian smiled slightly, diligently facing the sun's light without any slackening. "Senior is too kind."
Matei Divine and Ming Zhi Tian, working in unison, broke through the sun's light at 100% intensity!!
Soon, the sun's light, reaching hundreds of millions of degrees, gradually disappeared. The sun retreated! Leaving behind scattered fragments of its fiery disc.
The two exchanged glances. That was heat of billions of degrees; who dared to touch it?
Ming Zhi Tian activated his Immortal Pupil Eye, and the Hand of the Heavenly Puppet attached itself to his right hand. He then picked up the scattered fragments of the fiery disc, reaching billions of degrees, and stored them in the void.
Ming Zhi Tian felt this miraculous object could help him return to the Ancient Cultivation Realm. He then turned to Matei Divine. "If I may be so bold, young one?"
Matei Divine smiled faintly. "Since this fortune is fated to be yours, then take it."
Ming Zhi Tian cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, then bowed deeply. "Thank you, Senior."
Seeing this, the Nine Directions Divine Emperors were displeased. They had worked hard for so long, contributing from 10% to 80% of the sun's divine heat. Now, Ming Zhi Tian, having contributed only a little, had managed to obtain fragments from the sun. How could this be tolerated?
Light Emperor bowed to Matei Divine, completely disregarding Ming Zhi Tian. "Lord Matei Divine, we may not have achieved much, but we have certainly toiled. If we hadn't suppressed the sun's light, would he have had the chance to snatch the leftovers? Surely, something of equivalent value should be exchanged, right?"
Before Matei Divine could speak, Ming Zhi Tian retorted, "Negotiating with me? You lot, are you worthy?"
Dark Emperor pointed angrily, "Ming Zhi Tian! Facing us, the Ten Directions Divine Emperors, you dare to be so arrogant. Have you no fear of death!"
Ming Zhi Tian didn't even deign to look at him. "Hasn't one already died?"
Wind Emperor raged, "You scoundrel! If we don't teach you a lesson today, you'll never know our might!"
Matei Divine shook his head helplessly. These nine were playing with fire. He knew well that Ming Zhi Tian harbored too many secrets within him. He had already sensed it when they were jointly resisting the sun's light. If Ming Zhi Tian were to attack him, even with the sacred weapon Five Elements Nine Divine Dragon Roar in hand, he admitted he wouldn't have absolute confidence in victory.
