"Venerable Knight Aldric," A green-white-robed fairy spoke, her voice melodious, "It is highly presumed that the Divine Emperor of Death has placed a powerful karmic veil or has someone who uses a powerful karmic veil to hide himself. Normal means to find Anarchic Divergents wouldn't work, and even special means are thwarted, which means we must go through each suspicious location by ourselves."
"What a good way of searching, Fairy Lussandra." Another Venerable Knight harrumphed, "I did it two days ago and ended up finding a hidden Void Calamity. I did it four days ago and ended up finding another Galaxy spy. I did it seven days ago and ended up finding the Verdant Vale Lower Realm's Realm Master, Thousand Windblades, is not even the son of the previous Verdant Vale Lower Realm Master. I find everything except that damned Anarchic Divergent!"
He growled, his mustache trembling as he roared in the end. His red hair flailed like a lion's mane.
"…" The others went speechless while Fairy Lussandra, the only female Venerable Knight here, didn't comment.
"Makes sense why he would stay there for a long time and rule with an iron fist, Venerable Knight Foredawn." Venerable Knight Aldric nodded.
"Enough chatter." A purple-haired man draped in a black robe opened his mouth as he kept his eyes closed, "Time is of the essence. We have seen many Anarchic Divergent become nearly unkillable the more we give them time. If it weren't for our seniors, we wouldn't have safeguarded our galaxy. We should not be complacent just because we singlehandedly executed a few Anarchic Divergents."
"…"
Once this man spoke, everyone turned silent.
Of the nine of them, he was the only one to kill three Anarchic Divergents singlehandedly. Two of them were eliminated in this galaxy and one in another galaxy while surviving the onslaught of the denizens of that galaxy.
He was extremely strong, and surprisingly, he sent his avatar like them after receiving an order from his respective organization. He was even titled among them by the Celestial Transcendent."Venerable Hollow Knight, Terralph. It's just a matter of time before we find the Divine Emperor of Death."
Venerable Knight Aldric addressed him, "Even if Mystic Diviners failed, I don't think we need to search for him by ourselves when every other Heaven's Warrior, Acolytes, and Honorary Warriors are working in tandem to find the Divine Emperor of Death. Sooner or later, he would be found."
"Indeed." Another Venerable Knight, who was draped in gray robes, commented.
He appeared to have aged a lot, like a mortal man in his sixties but was still imposing with sharp gray eyes and violet hair.
"There are over nine thousand Heaven's Warriors ready to be transported to any of the nine realms in one second using this Golden Pagoda. They have all descended to take part in this grand hunt. The moment we find the Divine Emperor of Death and besiege him from all sides, he will be finished. Not only do we have numbers, but we also have the force required to eliminate him, along with the nine of us here. Even if we don't measure up and lose somehow, we can at least take down his ceaselessly growing Divergent group."
"What Venerable Knight Walritch says makes sense." The Venerable Hollow Knight responded with a small nod.
"Our lives don't matter. If we fear for our lives, then more will lose their lives in the future. We cannot allow such a predicament to befall the Celestial Transcendent Galaxy when the nine of us have been deployed."
The eight other Venerable Knights nodded.
They talked for a bit more time about matters regarding the secret realm and the defenses placed there to eliminate the two Divergents who had entered inside. Defenses in the Verdant Vale Lower Realm being strengthened. Extending their search radius across the nine specified realms in case they were being fooled around and many other matters. ɽÂƝỒ฿ÊṢ
Finally, the time came as their figures flickered. The Golden Pagoda no longer held the energy to connect them together from a large distance and with incomparable security from being spied on.
Venerable Knight Walritch stood up, "If there isn't anything else, then let this meeting be adjourned, and we'll meet a month later to report on our findings. Even the smallest of matters can hold the slightest hint about his location, so pay attention."
"Yes~"
The other Venerable Knights echoed. It could be seen they respected Venerable Knight Walritch.
The Venerable Hollow Knight stood up and walked all the way back from the golden bridge he came from and stepped out.
There were also over a thousand Heaven's Warriors ready to head out and eliminate with a wave of his hand. Many more were gathering as time passed by since the other half was out searching. Still, the current garrison was alone a force to be reckoned with over seven hundred Peak Stage Sovereigns, two hundred Early Stage Autarchs, sixty Mid Stage Autarchs, and seven Late Stage Autarchs.
It was an incredible force that has gathered slowly over the last three months.
It was unknown how long they would stay, but if the hunt was over soon, they could all be rewarded.
"What did the Whispering Wildlands Realm Master say?"
A Heaven's Warriors rushed forward and cupped his hands towards the Venerable Hollow Knight.
"Reporting to the Venerable Hollow Knight, the Whispering Wildlands Realm Master still refuses to see us, citing seclusion as a reason. Instead, we still have their First and Second Grand Elders accommodating our requests and giving us a place to stay, which is acceptable but still rude as they are not using the full extent of their forces to search the realm."
"Well, they're said to be an independent ruler and operate from the shadows, so they are not overt. I arrived here just a few days ago, but I can sense their efficiency. Regardless, at this point, the only interesting location we haven't checked is the Whispering Wildlands Peninsula, isn't it?
The Venerable Hollow Knight raised his brow, his face full of suspicion.
"That is true. Although there are a few other places, they are sealed by Heaven's Warriors of previous generations. They connect toward unholy forces of the universe, so it is not recommended we break the seal in order to investigate. Other than that, the Whispering Wildlands Peninsula is pretty much the only huge place we haven't charted yet."
The Heaven's Warrior sighed, "However, I don't think we need to check since it is nearly impossible for any being to enter through the massive sky fortress, the cumulonimbus clouds, without the help from Realm Master himself."
"If you say so."
Venerable Hollow Knight frowned, "But keep an eye on their activities. Heresy against the heavens is the least of our worries right now, but it is entirely possible that they have been mind-controlled. Continue to request entry into the Whispering Wildlands Peninsula."
"Yes!"
"If they still don't allow us to enter, then we break in forcefully."
"Venerable Hollow Knight, it might become a problem."
"I don't think so." Venerable Hollow Knight's lips curled with derision, "By the way, didn't a Heaven's Warrior request for my presence yesterday."
"Yes, that was Fairy Runalise. She stayed for a few minutes before leaving."
"What did she say?"
Venerable Hollow Knight narrowed his eyes, his gaze keen and sharp.
