Despite being faint, this aura, just a strand of a quasi-emperor’s, was enough to induce terror and stir a sense of reverence, making people feel inclined to kneel in welcome.

Rustle…

Within the black hole, a golden scroll suddenly emerged, radiating a brilliant light. This scroll fluttered in the wind, positioned at the top-most part of the main hall.

An unknown material was used to produce the scroll, and it was saturated with dense Dao rhythms. Every single character on it felt as though it was elucidating the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

Boom!

The scroll suddenly vibrated. An intense light instantly pierced the sky. This divine light pressured the entire main hall, causing it to shudder. “Quasi-emperor’s edict!” an elderly person murmured.

“Quasi-emperor’s edict?” Su Chen looked up at the floating scroll, repeating the phrase in a low voice.

The radiant golden aura on the scroll had gradually begun to recede, though its divine charm remained. Each character on the scroll was remarkably distinct. It detailed all the regions where dark creatures had appeared during this period.

Predictably, this would be the main act of this Prodigy Gathering.

The only regrettable part was that dark creatures in certain areas had already been earmarked, and assigned to select powers. Other factions, who might have envied the dark creatures’ Black Blood Stones, had to weigh their ability to provoke a quasi-emperor.

After all, in this era without any great emperors, a quasi-emperor was the most powerful.

“The dark creatures in the Rosy Clouds Holy Land’s territory have been allocated to the Dasui Empire, as expected,” someone commented. “I wonder which quasi-emperor made this call…”

If this was the decision of a human quasi-emperor, then this quasi-emperor was somewhat shortsighted. It could easily lead to conflicts among different factions, as everyone yearned for the Black Blood Stones. These stones could cause one to be reborn with just a drop of blood. If they handed them over to other factions so simply, what would the Rosy Clouds Holy Land think?

It became even more intriguing if this was a game played by a quasi-emperor from the Demon Race. This action was akin to inciting infighting among the humans.

“Hmm?” Su Chen looked closely along the scroll. When he saw the final part of it, his expression turned cold.

“The Demon Slaying Altar!”

Staring at the golden scroll, Su Chen murmured, “They’ve actually designated the Demon Slaying Altar to our Great Mystery Sacred Sect. They really think highly of our sect!”

“The Demon Slaying Altar?” Sui Shang, standing next to Su Chen, also noted the dark creatures that the Great Mystery Sacred Sect needed to confront. He slightly raised his eyebrows.

The Demon Slaying Altar was a location with an ancient origin. In ancient times, this region was routinely used to bury dark creatures. As the dark creatures buried here were overwhelmingly powerful, their lingering obsessions never dissipated, transforming into countless other kinds of dark creatures. These creatures lacked form, only knew destruction, and could influence an individual’s inner thoughts, somewhat similar to inner demons.

The Demon Slaying Altar was hence horrifying.

This place had become a forbidden territory over time, not opened to participants in the previous Prodigy Gathering. It was only cleansed by a quasi-emperor. The Demon Slaying Altar posed a significant risk.

Even offering the assistance of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect with this task was tantamount to delivering them to their death.

“Fellow Daoist Su Chen,” Sui Shang started, looking at the golden scroll slightly shaking his head. “It seems that someone has already collaborated with a quasi-emperor.”

This dangerous location, the Demon Slaying Altar, ought to be daunting for any single power. At least, the cooperation of three or more powers should be needed. Yet, the quasi-emperor’s edict only mandated the Great Mystery Sacred Sect.

If there were no hidden agendas in all of this, who would believe it? After all, everyone present was no fool.

“Is the quasi-emperor from the Qin family the one who called for the Prodigy Gathering?” Su Chen’s expression slightly darkened as he asked.

“No,” Sui Shang shook his head slightly and thought carefully for a moment before responding, “From what I know, the human quasi-emperors convening the Prodigy Gathering this time all come from the Emperor’s Mountain. As for which clan the quasi-emperor of the Demon Race is from, I’m not quite sure. And, as far as I know, there seems to be more than one quasi-emperor from the Demon Race. They attach great importance to this Prodigy Gathering. In reality, it’s mainly because there are too many dark creatures appearing on the Demon Race’s side. In comparison to the Demon Race, the situation within the human territory is already relatively good. After all, we haven’t seen dark creatures beyond the Saint Realm for a long time.”

“Emperor’s Mountain?” Su Chen carefully recalled this in his mind. He had some impression of this power. But it was just an impression. This power was very mysterious, belonging to the type of semi-hidden force. This force had a very long history, and it was said that they had several Great Emperor Realm powerhouses in their history. Nowadays, their heritage should be on par with the Qin family.

As for what Sui Shang had just mentioned, that there were no dark creatures beyond the Saint Realm within the human territory, Su Chen only smiled lightly.

He didn’t believe it. After all, there were powerful dark creatures within the Dashang Empire. But, this information was still speculation. Su Chen couldn’t confirm it at the moment. Moreover, there were powerful individuals from the Dashang Empire present in this hall.

If Su Chen were to step forward and accuse them now. Without sufficient evidence, he wouldn’t be able to prove anything. It might even backfire on him. After all, ever since Su Chen entered, people from Dashang had been closely monitoring him.

“That’s right. This is indeed a mystery,” Sui Shang assented, nodding gravely. “But a quasi-emperor’s will is inviolable. If the Great Mystery Sacred Sect requires any assistance, do not hesitate to inform us.”

Although many people present could see that there was something suspicious about this scroll, this scroll came from the hands of a quasi-emperor. If there were no Quasi-Emperor Realm powerhouses backing it, no one would dare to defy its contents.

With the Great Mystery Sacred Sect’s background, even if they couldn’t kill the dark creatures in the Demon Slaying Altar, they would still have to go there with gritted teeth.

Sui Shang speaking up at this moment was like a timely help for the Great Mystery Sacred Sect.

“Thank you, Shang King,” Su Chen said, nodding slightly and expressing his gratitude..
