In the desolate wasteland, two figures were standing next to each other, facing a green-robed figure. It had already been thirty minutes since they started facing each other. However, they literally just face each other, no one was talking.

At this moment, it was a deafening silence. Even a needle could be heard if it fell to the ground. This silence could make anyone uncomfortable. But compared to these beings, it was not a problem at all.

Finally, the green-robed figure, who was the lady in the green garden, spoke with a firm yet charming voice, "So finally, the Ancient Ming Clan has finally made their move... and sent you two here, right?"

The two figures were, of course, Jyu Ming and Lai Ming.

Lai Ming answered, smiling, "Well, that may be the case."

"What may be the case?" The green-robed lady sneered, "That's precisely the case, isn't it? It seems that Zang Ming was already nearing his death."

"If you already know it, why bother asking?" Lai Ming did not remove his smile, "But what you said is true. After more than a million years of living, the First Ming Ancestor's vitality has withered."

"So you want the compass to prolong his life?" Farna, the green-robed lady, asked, "Even though you could prolong his life using the compass, it's not yet enough for him to become an Immortal Emperor."

"Fool." Jyu Ming suddenly interjected, "As a traitor, of course, you don't know a thing about what's the happenings inside our clan. Let me tell you, the First Ming Ancestor has finally become an Immortal Emperor for a long time now."

"What..." Farna's body shook. She did not expect that the First Ming Ancestor, Zang Ming, had become an Immortal Emperor already, "How is that possible...?"

Just think about it, Immortal Emperor is a realm after the Immortal Realm. However, Immortal Emperor Realm was unique, since reaching this realm meant that one had finally reached the path of godhood. Of course, it was just the beginning path. After all, Immortal Emperors were the only beings qualified to ascend to the higher worlds and continue their path of cultivation.

Furthermore, Immortal Emperor Realm did not have first to nine stages. This was the starting realm with sublevels of lower-level, middle-level, upper-level and peak-level instead of nine stages. However, breaking through from this realm was extremely difficult that even in the higher worlds. It might take tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands. This was possible. What's more, it's close to impossible to do a breakthrough in Grivexia. That's why Immortal Emperors ascend to the higher worlds to temper and increase their chance of breaking through.

Now, Farna discovered that the First Ming Ancestor has already become an Immortal Emperor. How terrifying was that? After all, in Grivexia, Immortal Emperors were the peak of existences. Furthermore, Immortal Emperors had a lifespan of 500,000 years! Of course, burying themselves underground with blood beads were exception and not included to the initial lifespan.

Seeing the shocked and a bit of terrified expression revealing in Farna's face, Jyu Ming could not help but be arrogant, "That's right. Our First Ming Ancestor is already an Immortal Emperor."

Farna bit her lip and did not talk for a while. She and Zang Ming were rivals when they were still at their prime. However, Farna was a genius with extreme astonishing talent in cultivating, while Zang Ming was not. She deduced that Zang Ming would never reach Immortal Emperor Realm even he became old. Who would have thought that he reached it? By this, she already knew how strong willpower Zang Ming had. For some reason, she could not help but be disappointed, not because of him, but of herself.

She also lived for a more than a million years already, however, she still could feel mundane feelings. She could only live this long because of the Immortal Green Garden. With her current cultivation, it was more than impossible to live this long. In fact, even Progenitor Gong, who was her disciple, managed to live for so long because of the garden too.

"Enough of chitchat." Lai Ming said, "Hand over the compass and we will not bother you or anyone in this world."

Farna composed herself and said, "I can't give that to you. That is given by my master and I promised that no one in your clan can steal it from me as long as I live. Even Zang Ming had no choice but to compromise!"

"Audacious! With your strength of the first stage of the Immortal Realm, do you think you can defeat us?" Jyu Ming said. Although he was no match to Farna, Lai Ming was not.

"How unfortunate..." Lai Ming sighed, "If you did not betray our clan just because of your foolish dream of creating your own world and sacrificing your cultivation, perhaps you already became an Immortal Emperor and ascended to the higher worlds. Too bad, really. Since you can't give the compass, then let me forcibly take it away from you!"

Boom!

Lai Ming showed released an oppressive aura directing towards Farna!

Thump Thump!

"Grug!" Farna coughed a mouthful of blood and knelt down. Just a single attack of an oppressive aura, she was already helpless, like a fish on the chopping board. As she expected, the enemies were way stronger than her! After all, Lai Ming was at the second stage of the Immortal Realm!

"Give it up. Surrender the compass and I will spare you." Lai Ming coldly said. In his heart, he was also satisfied. Who would have thought that he could defeat the unrivaled genius in the past who rivaled their First Ming Ancestor?

Farna was looking miserable right now. However, she was not planning on giving the compass to them!

Crack crack

Farna tore up space and was about to enter it to run away. However, how could Lai Ming, who understood this, let her?

"You can't run!"

However, Farna was fast enough to enter the space even injured which surprised Lai Ming.

"Lai Ming, she escaped!" Jyu Ming said worriedly.

Lai Ming did not get irritated about this, smiling, "Never thought that she could still pull a trick even with that injury, truly a genius. However, too bad that I already thought that she will do it. So I left a mark with her when I released my oppressive aura. In fact, I already know where she is."

He laughed sinisterly and continued, "Come on, Jyu Ming. Let's start the hunt."

After which, he tore up the void and locked the coordinates where Farna was. Disappearing from the desolate wasteland.
