After considering these calculations, the choices made by the Human Emperor are no longer surprising. This includes Wang Long's previous rejection of Shunshen's proposal, which was also based on these considerations.
Upon clarifying the specific areas where the Human Emperor encountered the Toxic Corpses, it was discovered that they were heading straight for one of the main strongholds of the Evil Extermination Sect, Giant Sun Mountain City.
Rejecting Wang Long's speculation, it is feared that the forces behind them can no longer contain their desire to initiate their covert plans, which is why they sent out a few to test their reactions. If they could gain sufficient benefits from negotiations, then avoiding conflict would be ideal. There is no need for them to completely eradicate Wang Long and the Human Emperor; killing them would only provoke anger in the current world and signify their absolute unwillingness and fear, leading them to fight against the Third Realm until the very end.
After all, their primary enemy is still the divine race. This time, targeting Wang Long is also aimed at taking down Giant Sun Mountain City, potentially even alarming the leader of the God-Slaying Sect! With so many experts among them, if even the Evil Extermination Sect cannot find a way to counteract the poisonous mist created by these Toxic Corpses, what force in the world could possibly stop them?
Meanwhile, aside from guessing the targets of those Toxic Corpses, Shunshen was also deeply shocked by the extent of damage inflicted on Feather City.
Although they had made some preparations during the previous battle in Feather City, experiencing it firsthand truly revealed how ruthless those from the Third Realm were!
"Are you also here for that divine sword?" Upon hearing them mention that this sword could clear away the terrifying poisonous mist, the Human Emperor raised an eyebrow and did not hide his intentions at all.
"Uh, you're here to compete for this divine sword too? What for?" Wang Long looked at the Human Emperor in confusion. Hadn't Shunshen mentioned before that this divine sword could only be used to clear away these poisonous mists now? The Spiritual Essence on it had already dissipated significantly and could no longer be used as a weapon?
"What I seek is that it is a Divine Weapon," replied the Human Emperor coldly. "You say that there is little spiritual essence left in that divine sword, but what I know is that its power is astonishing. Even among the divine race, few can wield its power without harming their own side. That is why they ultimately decided to bury it here. Your excuse for seeking it is truly laughable."
"You don't recognize a good person's intentions!" Shunshen calmly responded to the Human Emperor's accusation with a smile. "Since you say so, may I ask who made such an evaluation of this divine sword?"
"Uh, I have promised that person I would never disclose this matter! So do not think about any underhanded tactics."
"It doesn't seem like a good time for us to fight, regardless of the power of the Divine Weapon. At least for some, if we start battling among ourselves, it would play right into the hands of our opponents."
Both sides maintained their tacit understanding, leaving each other some space and not giving the other side a chance to fight desperately. A new alliance was formed just like that.
It was evident that the Third Realm had a natural sensitivity towards the weapon that was stored on Feather Peak, which possessed immense power and was specifically designed to counter their new Toxic Corpses.
Not only did they deal with a group of Third Realm experts when they first encountered the Human Emperor, but they also ran into two more groups along the way.
One must remember that this place is the heartland of the divine race. Even though it had just been ravaged by the Demon Clan, such actions would be completely out of character for the Third Realm, known for its low profile, unless there was a special reason behind it.
For the subsequent two smaller groups of experts, Wang Long and his companions did not hold back and directly cooperated with the Human Emperor to easily resolve the situation.
However, this seemed to have stirred up a hornet's nest.
Although Wang Long believed he had not done anything wrong, after dealing with these two groups, he realized they had already fallen into a tight encirclement. He even wondered if Cai Burin's information about the Third Realm being "few in number but powerful" was some sort of joke directed at him!
As he followed Shunshen deeper into the heartland, Wang Long remained vigilant about his surroundings to avoid being ambushed by Third Realm members. If they were delayed even slightly, everyone in the mountainous area would rush in and tear them apart.
Moreover, as they moved closer to Feather Peak's center, he could increasingly sense the brutality of the previous war between gods and demons and the miraculous environment formed here.
"We're almost there," he said after passing another scouting team from the Third Realm. The three arrived at an area filled with green vines.
"What a pity. If we could have arrived a little later, certain individuals would have willingly provided cover for us from behind, allowing us to retrieve that divine sword with ease."
"That is indeed not bad, but unfortunately, there is no time to waste right now, and I can still endure avoiding those Third Realm warriors."
Wang Long made this joke to provoke the Human Emperor. With his proud nature, facing those Third Realm Warriors who were not even worth his attention, he felt an almost burning anger to rush out and fight all the Third Realm experts. If it weren't for the fact that they could deduce his and Shunshen's location and direction from where the Human Emperor appeared, Wang Long might have actually tried to urge him on a bit more to make him charge out.
"Alright, you two stop arguing for now. This is the Human Emperor, right? I still need to confirm one last thing: you won't regret this decision, will you?"
The Human Emperor knew what he was asking and nodded solemnly, "The significance of the divine realm is not something we need to discuss right now. The Third Realm has already become our common enemy. If they also create a large number of Toxic Corpses in this world, we will suffer heavy losses. Therefore, after obtaining the divine sword, I will hand it over to you to deal with those Toxic Corpses. Whether I can reclaim this divine sword from Wang Long in the future will depend on my own abilities as the Human Emperor!"
"Hehe, indeed a remarkable figure. Among our divine race, it is still possible to find a few experts stronger than both of you, but when it comes to ambition, intelligence, and decisiveness, few can match you. Well then, let's go in immediately. However, you must be cautious; since this is where our divine race seals the divine sword, there are bound to be some traps. You two stay close to me and do not wander off randomly; otherwise, it could easily lead to trouble."
Wang Long and the Human Emperor exchanged glances. As they faced the dense vines without knowing how to enter, they saw Shunshen forming seals with his hands that shot directly into the vines. To their surprise, those previously heavy vines began to part on their own, slowly revealing a light wall in front of them.
"What is this?" "Starry Illusion Wall." Shunshen said with a very serious expression, "Once you two enter, be extremely cautious. In the realm of the Starry Illusion Wall, there are illusions everywhere that can catch you off guard. Once inside, just remember one thing: stay behind me at all times and do not entertain any extra thoughts; otherwise, you may never escape in your lifetime."
The Human Emperor acknowledged with a sound. He was well aware of Shunshen's current strength; since even he was so tense, it was clear how dangerous it was inside.
