Chapter 478: I Can Control It_1
The sound reached the trio's secret hideaway.
Elder Cliffside exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be possible that the Martial Emperor Dawu already knows the location of our hideaway?"
"Impossible!" Elder Cyan shook her head violently, "My siblings and I spent countless years building this refuge, and have hidden it within the very origin of the void. How could the Martial Emperor possibly find it?"
However, they saw through their hideaway that the real body of the Martial Emperor had not arrived yet, instead a massive mana hand was slamming into the void.
The void quivered, their hideaway shook violently. The three elders of the sea and mountains knew they could no longer hide, they emerged from the hideaway to see a divine light radiating from the distance.
"Emperor Dawu, we are deeply honored by your visit from afar. We, the three elders from the sea and mountains, have come to receive you!"
Elder Seascape was the calmest as he watched the front.
The Divine Army arrived first, with an overwhelming and murderous momentum!
"Dawu's Divine Army!"
The pupils of the three elders of the sea and mountains shrank rapidly.
They had heard of the Divine Army. Its members were all exceptionally strong, with the weakest among them displaying supernatural powers. Their vast number, counted in tens of thousands, was terrifying.
"Presumptuous! The Emperor has arrived and you're in the territory of Dawu. Why aren't you kneeling to welcome him?"
The Celestial God Tianhong rebuked sharply.
"You! A lowly Celestial God! I would annihilate you in the blink of an eye and you dare to be insolent before me!"
Elder Cliffside flew into a rage.
When had a Celestial God ever been this presumptuous before a Heavenly God?
Among the three elders, Elder Seascape was the calmest, Elder Cliffside the most volatile, and Elder Cyan the wisest.
Elder Cyan immediately said, "Since his Majesty is here, we should indeed welcome him. However, since we are not subjects of Dawu, we cannot honor him with the etiquettes of our subjects."
"None of you three elders make a move."
The ancient battle chariot of the Emperor crossed the sky, and the specter of the Heavenly Emperor appeared.
Sitting atop it was a powerful presence, ruling over the world. With an indifferent gaze, he was looking at the three elders.
"Emperor Dawu!"
The hearts of the three elders trembled violently as they looked at the Martial Emperor. After all, rumors had it that he was capable of slaying the Heavenly Gods.
But were these rumors true or false?
Honestly, they could hardly believe them.
"This is Dawu's supreme ruler!"
The people on Seascape Island, watching this majestic figure, were overwhelmed by an oppressive aura that left them breathless.
"Your Majesty, what brings you here today?"
Seeing the presence on the chariot, Elder Seascape did not dare to be careless.
"Did you receive my decree?" Chu Yuan suddenly asked.
Elder Seascape hesitated, then promptly replied, "We did."
"Having received it, why did you not report to the Imperial City? Does my decree fail to order you around, or should I personally invite you?"
Chu Yuan's voice was nonchalant yet filled with an unquestionable sense of dominion.
As Elder Cliffside was about to speak up, Elder Seascape interrupted, staying calm, "Your Majesty, we three elders of Seascape have created our dwelling on the sea for millions of years. We are not Dawu's subjects, so naturally, we do not need to follow your orders. However, if Your Majesty wishes to recruit us three as Guest Elders, we could consider it."
His intentions were quite simple.
Obedience was out of the question and they would need to consider becoming Guest Elders based on their own moods.
"Martial Emperor, your presumption has gone too far."
Elder Cliffside said coldly, "You can't cover the sun with one hand."
"Let me cover the sun for you!"
Amid the glory of the gods, the three elders of Seascape were stunned. They looked up to see the revelatory spectacle of countless gods. The original sky was gone, replaced by the supreme sky of Dawu, a symbol of faith in humanity.
"Wherever my grand army reaches is Dawu's imperial territory. The land your dwellings occupy is mine. Since you three elders have founded sects on my land, you must be governed by the Imperial Dynasty."
The voice was domineering, allowing no room for dispute. The three elders felt their temples throb.
"Martial Emperor, don't be too oppressive!" Elder Seascape's face turned sour.
This Martial Emperor was too domineering and unreasonable.
"If the Elemental Sect can't control you, I can."

Chu Yuan was overbearing. He grabbed with one hand, and the brilliant mana directly blasted at the strongest Elder Seascape.
Talking big was of no use, strength was the most important.
"Martial Emperor, today I will see for myself how powerful you really are!"
Rumours had made the Martial Emperor seem extremely powerful, but he was somewhat skeptical. Seeing this hand grabbing at him, Elder Seascape made his move, creating Infinite Seas with one slap that caused boundless seawater to roll up, suddenly pressing down on Chu Yuan.
Rolling divine light!
In an instant, Elder Seascape found Chu Yuan's power to be as vast as the earth and sky, unstoppable. His move was smashed into it, and he himself was caught in a torrent, being hit from all sides and about to be blown away.
The Great Cut Technique!
Chu Yuan used the Great Cut Technique, and dark light lines crisscrossed, slashing on Elder Seascape.
The mana of the quadruple Void God of Elder Seascape could not resist, and he was slashed and sent flying. A deep gash appeared on his chest.
"Big Brother!"
Elders Cliffside and Cyan were shocked.
"I'm fine!"
Elder Seascape looked at the bloodstain on his chest with lingering fear. He had, of course, recognized that move. It was the Great Cut Technique that cut through the void.
"Big Brother, if the three of us join forces, I don't believe that this Martial Emperor is so powerful that we can't resist!"
Elder Cliffside let out a howl, striking out fiercely with palm prints that could shake the heavens. The earth was torn asunder as if a column holding up the sky had been crushed. The entire infinite sky seemed to be pulled down.
Elder Cyan's eyes flashed, and a dry wooden crutch appeared in her hand.
"Withering Glow!"
A dark light shot out.
This Withering Glow could weaken one's opponent's mana, as if plants had withered in winter.
However, the sight of the trio joining forces didn't alter Chu Yuan's expression in the least. Operating the ancient imperial battle chariot, he cast the Great Thunder Technique with his left hand and the Great Combat Technique with his right, defeating the forces of Elder Cliffside and Elder Cyan one after the other.
His momentum surged to its peak!
"This Martial Emperor is formidable, we can't be complacent!"
Elder Seascape warned, and being the most powerful, he launched an attack.
With one palm, countless strange phenomena appeared, and many mountain shadows overlapped, giving off a heavy atmosphere as they pressed down on Chu Yuan.
"Big Brother's power is close to breaking through to the fifth level of the Void God!" Elder Cyan secretly noted.
Her dry wooden crutch suddenly changed color, becoming lush green, and countless orchids appeared, forming a field exclusive to the Void Gods.
Elder Cliffside also made his move.
When the three of them combined forces, their power was vast and unending, creating a force far greater than their own capabilities.
"Martial Emperor, back down! You can't break our power!"
Elder Seascape roared.
"The Glory of the Gods!"
"The Brilliance of the Instant!"
Under the glory of the gods, Chu Yuan transformed into a brilliant glow, like a strike of an instantaneous meteor. Glory and brilliance reflected upon each other, the most dazzling force directly striking the three elders.
Splat!
Despite their combined strength, this force shattered their defenses in an instant. On suffering the backlash, the three elders were thrown back, spitting out blood dramatically.
The three elders couldn't handle them well, even when they combined their strengths.
Elder Cliffside and Elder Cyan suddenly watched in horror as a beam of light struck, crying out, "Big Brother, be careful!"
Bang!
In the instant their thoughts fluttered, this brilliant force had already hit Elder Seascape's body.
