The light emitted by the auspicious beast was dazzling but gentle.

Those who saw it found it very pleasing to the eyes and felt very comfortable.

When the auspicious beast came to a stop above the Evil Sky Pavilion, it spun a few times before it let out a soft cry.

Then, rain of light began to fall on Golden Court Mountain.

The flowers, plants, and trees on the mountain grew at a speed visible to the naked eye. Everything was filled with vitality, and they were lush. At the same time, vitality energy began to surge.

The ten Templars looked at the rain of light in amazement.

After 15 minutes, the auspicious beast finally flew down to the Evil Sky Pavilion.

The Templars looked at each other.

"The Unholy One was the Master of Grand Mystic Mountain, after all. Many spiritual beasts at the Nine Peaks Mountain were raised by him. It's not surprising that such a spiritual beast follows him. There's no need to be so surprised," Nan Ping said.

The other nine Templars nodded in agreement.

Nan Ping took another step forward before he said again, "The Sacred Temple's Nan Ping requests an audience with the Unholy One."

This time, Nan Ping imbued a little Primal Qi into his voice, making sure it spread to every corner of Golden Court Mountain.

After a moment, Princess Yong Ning flew up into the air. She bowed and said, "Everyone, please return. Senior Ji is currently in seclusion. It's not convenient for him to receive guests."

Nan Ping sized up the woman in front of him. The difference between their strength allowed him to quickly discern that she was not powerful. In fact, she was extremely weak. He felt it was extremely strange. In the past, the Unholy One, who roamed the world, was extremely powerful. Even the guards guarding the great entrance of Grand Mystic Mountain were top-notch experts. However, now, he had fallen into such a state.

Nonetheless, Nan Ping maintained a polite smile on his face as he cupped his fists together and said, "I'm from the Sacred Temple. I'm here under the orders of Great Emperor Ming Xin to meet the Unholy One."

In other words, Ming Xin sent us here, and no one could go against Ming Xin's will.

Alas, in Princess Yong Ning's eyes, Great Yan's Evil Sky Pavilion was the strongest. She said, "I'm sorry. Everyone, please leave."

"..."

Nan Ping frowned.

The other nine Templars were also unhappy.

They had to meet the Unholy One, after all. However, considering how powerful he was, they did not dare to act rashly and could only be patient.

Nan Ping said, "Please inform him about our arrival. This is the Great Emperor's decree. It concerns the safety of the world…"

"This…" Princess Yong Ning wavered.

At this time, Jiang Aijian's voice rang from below, "She's said that he won't be meeting anyone. Are you deaf?"

The Templars looked down and saw Jiang Aijian flying up on a longsword in a leisurely manner. They thought, 'Finally, an expert.'

Nan Jing said, "I'm only following orders."

Jiang Aijian said, "We're also following orders. Senior Ji has said that no matter who comes, he's not to be disturbed. Who do you think you are to act so atrociously here?"

In other words, where did they get the courage to act so atrociously in front of the Unholy One?

"..."

The ten Templars were rendered speechless by Jiang Aijian's words.

At this moment, Nan Ping remembered their purpose of coming to the Evil Sky Pavilion was to show off their power. With the effect of the Scales of Justice, they could wield the power between heaven and earth and stand shoulder to shoulder with divine emperors. It was the power that everyone yearned for. This kind of opportunity only came once in a lifetime, how could they let it go to waste and return empty-handed?

Nan Ping straightened his back and looked at Jiang Aijian disdainfully as he said, "No one in this world can refuse the Sacred Temple."

Jiang Aijian frowned and said, "Even the Four Supremes of the Sacred Temple had to kneel before Senior Ji. Why did Ming Xin send you here to die? Why didn't he personally come?"

These words hit Nan Ping's vital points.

In fact, all of the Templars had wondered about this as well.

If Ming Xin wanted to test the Unholy One's power, he could have come himself. Why did he need to send them here? By sending a group of cannon fodders over only meant that he was not confident enough.

Over the past 100,000 years, there were many people who wished to be bestowed power from the Scales of Justice. However, they were also worried about the heavy burden that would come with such power. Just like now, the ten Templars had to face the most powerful cultivator of the ancient times, the Unholy One, in exchange for the power from the Scales of Justice.

After a moment, Nan Ping scoffed and asked, "What's your relationship with the Unholy One?"

Jiang Aijian said, "What does it have to do with you? You're really wasting time talking nonsense."

Buzz!

Nan Ping raised his hand, manifesting his lotus.

The green lotus was surrounded by 12 leaves. The lotus seat showed that all 36 Birth Charts had been activated. The light disks that surrounded the lotus were very eye-catching as well; there was one, two… six, seven, eight… nine…

Naturally, Nan Ping had intentionally revealed the light disks.

As expected, Jiang Aijian exclaimed in shock, "Divine emperor!"

This was the reaction Nan Ping wanted, but it was not enough.

Following that, the other nine Templars manifested their lotuses one after another. Each of their lotuses had nine light disks.

Jiang Aijian's worldview was instantly overturned. His eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets as he stared at the ten lotuses in a daze and said incoherently, "Ten… divine… emperors…"

Jiang Aijian and Si Wuya had once analyzed how difficult it would be to step into the realm of a divine emperor. Now that ten divine emperors appeared in front of him, how could he accept it?

Jiang Aijian gulped. Without caring about his image, he said, "It's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding…"

Seeing the change in Jiang Aijian, Nan Ping was pleased but also disdainful. He said commandingly, "Report our arrival."

Jiang Aijian shook his head helplessly. "That's the thing. Although you're divine emperors, you still have to follow the rules of the Evil Sky Pavilion now that you're here. Eh? Why are your light disks flickering? They look… a little weak… and fake?"

"..."

Nan Ping looked at Jiang Aijian unhappily. After all, he was not a divine emperor. It was only natural that the light disks were weak. Now that he was exposed, he also felt a little helpless. The other person really had a discerning eye. Nonetheless, he feigned calmness and said, "Tell the Unholy One to come out. We came because of an important matter."

At this moment, a streak of light flew over from the distant sky with loud swooshing noises.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound immediately.

When the streak of light drew closer, Jiang Aijian exclaimed in surprise, "Ji Liang?"

Whoosh!

The light Ji Liang's body emitted was like flames. It stopped above the Evil Sky Pavilion and spun a few times before vitality energy fell toward the eastern pavilion like a torrential rain.

…

At the same time, Lu Zhou, who was losing his lifespan, was surprised as well when he received the large amount of vitality energy.

…

One of the Templars said to Nan Ping, "That was Whitzard earlier, and now, it's Ji Liang. They aren't ordinary fierce beasts."

Nan Ping glared at the Templar and said, "Nonsense, why are you stating the obvious? how could I not know that? Maintain the dignity of a divine emperor!"

The other nine Templars straightened their backs immediately.

At this time…

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A huge creature pounced over from afar. Every time it landed, the ground and mountains would shake. When its head emerged from the clouds near the Evil Sky Pavilion, Jiang Aijian took the initiative to say, "This is Lu Wu."

Lu Wu opened its mouth, and white mist shot out, spreading in all directions. The white mist was filled with rich vitality energy and power. It nourished everything in Golden Court Mountain.

Soon after, Bi An, Qiong Qi, Ying Zhao, Cheng Huang, Di Jiang, Dang Kang, and Little Fire Phoenix arrived. They circled the sky above the Evil Sky Pavilion. They were brimming with rich vitality energy, and their bodies emitted an extraordinary aura.

Nan Ping's expression was calm, but his eyes could not hide his admiration as he said, "As expected of the Unholy One…"

One of the Templars said with a sigh, "These beasts are all top-notch. Their future is limitless. In comparison, the beasts at Nine Peaks Mountain have already lost their spiritual essence. Even the nine-winged divine dragon has lost its spiritual essence. Compared to these beasts that are filled with vitality, the nine-winged divine dragon is just like the setting sun. It's only a matter of time before it dies…"

The ten mounts stood quietly and obediently in the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Jiang Aijian spread his arms and said, "As you can see, it's not that I don't want to let you see Senior Ji. Even these mounts can't see him now…"

'Why does it seem like you're cursing us? Are we inferior to beasts?'

Nan Ping's patience was swiftly being eroded. He said in a deep voice, "We've been restraining ourselves. I hope you understand the meaning of these words."

"What? Do you want to force your way in?"

"If we do, what can you do to stop us?" Nan Ping retorted.

At this time, a furious voice rang from the western pavilion.

"Who is it?! So annoying!"

Swoosh!

A petite and exquisite young woman appeared in front of everyone. An angry expression could be seen on her face as she pointed at everyone with her jade-like finger at the ten Templars and said, "Get lost!"

Nan Ping frowned. He recognized the other party immediately. He asked, surprised, "The Scarlet Emperor's daughter? Why are you here?"

Princess Mulberry said, "You talk too much. I don't like you. If you don't leave now, I won't hold back."

"Even if the Scarlet Emperor were here, he wouldn't have the confidence to say such words."

Buzz!

Once again, the ten Templars brought their lotuses out. Their light disks were extremely eye-catching.

Upon seeing this, Princess Mulberry was startled. Nonetheless, she was unwilling to back down so she said, "Divine emperors? So what?"

"Princess Mulberry, this doesn't concern you. We're here to see the Unholy One, not to fight with the Scarlet Emperor."

In Templars' opinion, Princess Mulberry represented the Scarlet Emperor. If Princess Mulberry was affected, how could the Scarlet Emperor let the matter go?

At this time, Nan Ping said loudly, "Lord Unholy One, if you don't meet us juniors, then we'll have to come in and see you…"

At this moment, Lu Zhou's life was being replenished by the vitality energy. The range of the Pillar of Impermanence that had been sped up by 10,000 times was almost isolated from the outside world. It was only natural that there was no response.

Nan Ping felt strange. Under such circumstances where ten 'divine emperors' showed up, no matter who it was, they would still come out to have a look. However, there was no movement from the Evil Sky Pavilion at all. It was abnormally still and… empty. He could not help but wonder if the Unholy One was even here. He wondered if they had been scammed. After a moment, he raised his hand and said, "Descend."

"Understood."

The ten Templars flew down toward the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Princess Mulberry, Jiang Aijian, and Princess Yong Ning did not even have time to react before they were pushed away by a huge force. Faced with such force, words were useless.

Jiang Aijian looked in the direction of the eastern pavilion worriedly.

At this time, a beam of light suddenly shot up. It was blue and flashing with electric arcs. It broke through the clouds and shot into the sky.

Boom!

A very vivid blue circle of light rippled out high up in the sky.

"Retreat."

Nan Ping and the other nine Templars quickly retreated.

Nan Ping looked at the rippling circle of light, puzzled.

'What's this? Is someone activating a Great Birth Chart? Does the Unholy One still need to activate Birth Charts?!'

Nan Ping looked at the beam of light again before he said, "Go down and take a look. Don't let anyone stop you."

"Understood."

With that, the nine Templars flew toward the eastern pavilion.
