The Komodo beast is an extremely powerful group within the cosmic sea, one that the Ancient Emperor was naturally aware of long before.
“Having been away from the cosmic sea for so long, it’s time for me to take a stroll once this matter is settled,” the Ancient Emperor murmured, his gaze flickering with brilliance.
At this moment, deep within the remote cosmic sea, there lay a grand ethnic group.
This place is an ancient secret realm, filled with countless strong beings, akin to a deep abyss or purgatory.
These powerful figures exuded terrifying auras, with the rules of the cosmic sea refined within this secret realm, absorbed into their bodies.
Heaven Clan!
This is the core secret realm of the Heaven Clan.
In the depths of this secret realm, there stands an ancient palace, and at this moment, a booming voice resonated.
“Where are the law enforcement guards of the Heaven Clan?”
With the rumbling sound, a group of powerful figures donned in pitch-black armor, radiating terrifying imperial auras, rushed in and saluted before the great hall.
“May I ask why the clan elder has summoned us?”
The leading figure's gaze was cold and sharp, a terrifying colorful glow gathering in his brow, forming a multi-colored eye that radiated frightening divine light.
“Meng Tianhui, the aura of the Corpse Nation’s Lord has vanished. Investigate what has happened in the Corpse Nation. Why did the Lord of the Corpse Nation suddenly perish?” The booming voice continued.
“The Lord of the Corpse Nation?” The leading figure felt a surge of imperial energy and furrowed his brow. A book appeared in his hand, and he quickly flipped through it. Moments later, countless pieces of information flowed by, and he focused on one line, frowning as he said, “Elder, is it that early stage great emperor from the Southern Cosmic Sea?”
“Correct.” The aged voice continued, “Although this person is not from our Heaven Clan, he once accompanied the Holy Son Yu Tian in a secret realm, and secretly allied with the Holy Son. Over the years, he has provided our Heaven Clan with many vengeful spirits, making him an outer pawn for our clan.”
The Old Elder paused for a moment before speaking solemnly, “Though this person’s strength is average, our Heaven Clan must investigate clearly who dared to defy our clan’s authority. Or perhaps, is his demise related to our Heaven Clan or to the Holy Son Yu Tian?”
“This subordinate understands.”
The leading figure responded respectfully, his gaze cold and sharp.
An outer pawn who allied with their Heaven Clan was not a significant concern; he could easily be discarded as a piece. However, since this person once traveled with the Holy Son Yu Tian, that posed a problem.
The Holy Son Yu Tian is one of the most outstanding Heavenly Prodigies of their Heaven Clan in recent times, and one of the strongest who is most likely to take control of the Heaven Clan in the future.
Such a figure must be well protected, and in the cosmic sea, some top powers may use fate tracing methods to exert dark influence over certain strong beings. Since the Lord of the Corpse Nation had contact with the Holy Son, it’s possible that hostile forces against the Heaven Clan could target the Holy Son by seizing the fate line of the Lord of the Corpse Nation, tracing back to interfere with the Holy Son’s destiny.
“Moreover, a mercenary group from our Heaven Clan, the Heaven's Punishment Mercenary Group, seems to have gone missing in the Southern Cosmic Sea recently. You should investigate this matter as well.”
The aged voice continued.
“The Heaven's Punishment Mercenary Group?” The leading figure Meng Tianhui nodded, “Elder, rest assured. This matter concerns the Holy Son, I will personally take action to investigate, and we should have a reply soon.”
“That's good. I look forward to your news.”
The aged voice rumbled before falling silent, clearly sinking back into meditation.
“Let’s go, set off for the Southern Cosmic Sea.”
