Emperor’s Domination

>

Waves of light continued to emanate from the golden egg, one stronger than the previous.

The valley shook violently; the statues in the valley released runes and started chanting.
They seemed to be coming back to life and placed their palms together.

The characters and words gathered in the sky and issued loud explosions.
The accumulation of sound waves descended to stop the golden egg.

The latter had no fear at all; its divine lights rushed towards the sky like swords in an attempt to take down the sound waves.

The two sides began a fierce contest, ravaging the valley.
Boulders and peaks exploded; cracks emanated across the valley.
Everything seemed to be collapsing. 

“What evil thing is inside that egg, it can stop the Buddhist power too.” The spectators realized that this egg was far beyond their station.

“The seal of the valley served to suppress the egg, not to protect it.” One teacher from Duality murmured.

In the beginning, everyone assumed that the seal was there to stop people from coming in and taking the egg.
This was absolutely incorrect.

Meanwhile, Li Qiye watched with a smile and didn’t help either side.

Eventually, the egg finally cracked completely.
The light emanating from it became blinding to all spectators. 

“Boom!” This seemed like the end of the world, at least for the valley.
Mud and debris engulfed the area.

Once people could see again, there was only a bottomless abyss where the valley used to be.
The statues and the egg were nowhere to be found.
The thing looked like the jaw of a terrible monster, ready to devour anything that got close.

This development took the crowd by surprise.
Virtually everyone here was ready to pay any price for that egg.
Now, no one got it.
They wasted their trip and effort.

“All of this for nothing.” One teacher laughed and shook his head: “This is the best result anyway, no one won.”

“Let’s go.” The oldest teacher ordered and took the students away.

“Young Noble Li, visit our academy when you have time.” Yang Ling waved towards Li Qiye before leaving.

Li Qiye smiled back and didn’t say anything.

The students left along with the lucky survivors.
South Peak Marquis also brought his clan members away.

No one wanted to provoke Li Qiye at the moment, not even those who had seniors and friends dead in the valley.

Only Li Qiye was left in this area but this didn’t last long.
In the next second, a figure flashed into existence, standing next to him.
