Those near the two emperors felt an intense chill that caused frost to grow on their skin. Being struck by two Blizzard Heart Secret Arts is enough to bring down any Paramount Cultivators to their knees.
It is so powerful that not even the White Emperor who created the Secret Art could withstand it.
A red glint of light flashed across the Black Emperor's eyes. They will be defeated soon, and most combat arts, high-grade artefacts, weapons, talismans are worthless in this battle. He had never felt so impotent in his life.
He made a decision quickly and turned his face towards the Crimson Emperor who is still engaged with Kairos and Tommy.
Despite being stronger, Rurik could not gain an advantage and could barely keep the fight at even odds.
Those who know about the Origin Cultivation Method can tell that the two boys were using Soul Perception to keep up with the vast combat experience the Crimson Emperor has, but the Black Emperor could not believe his eyes.
"Rurik Slavik, it's time for me to devour you," the Black Emperor said emotionlessly.
Almost magically, the Crimson Emperor who heard these frightening words dropped his hands in mid-battle.
He mechanically ran over moving like a mannequin while ignoring Kairos and Tommy but his expression was one of pure terror.
"Stop him," Kairos yelled with great urgency, and everyone tried to impede Rurik's movement with attacks or binding techniques but to stop a Paramount Cultivator is tough even for other Paramount Cultivators.
While he went towards the Black Emperor, Rurik screamed as if his tongue no longer worked properly.
"Whot's hopponing to moooo!"
The Black Emperor lifted up a palm and an orb of pure darkness appeared with purple lightning snakes lingering around it. The Crimson Emperor felt an incredible suction force before his entire body was pulled over.
In the matter of moments, the Crimson Emperor were consumed by the black sphere and completely disappeared as though he had never existed.
There was a fearful hash in the place as everyone looked at the Black Emperor as if he was a monster.
"The Darkness Seed...," the Thief King muttered in disbelief, "I had always thought this evil technique only a hearsay."
Lord Yue's expression turned grave, making him even more frightening if that was possible, "If the Darkness Seed is real, then this means, you are the Great Khan, Yesugei-in Temujin?"
The eyes of everyone turned sharp. This man here, the Black Emperor, is the supreme leader of the north. The one who conquered and subsequently holds control over all of Frosthral.
If they could take him down, this war could end.
However, the next moment, the Black Emperor laughed as though he didn't mind that they found out his identity.
It wasn't surprising either as his Ki rapidly climbed up, becoming 10 Paramount Units in seconds and continued increasing. In his eyes, his enemies are quickly becoming harmless... trivial.
Of course, no matter how much his Ki compresses and become denser, the Black Emperor wouldn't be able to turn into an immortal. It isn't the amount of energy one refined that mattered but the type. Just like, no matter how much normal food one eats, one could not turn into a cultivator, but it might be possible from just eating one spirit fruit. After all, it is a process to turn into a higher class of lifeform.
Even so, he had the right to look down at them.
The Black Emperor watched them like a calculative predator, "You are too optimistic. In mere minutes I will become an existence so great that you can only bow down before me."
