Carney had disappeared. He had been transferred to Arthur's Small World for the purpose of healing. Meanwhile, a figure showed up right at the spot where he disappeared.
That was a burly old man with white hair.
Although he was old, he exuded an aura of confidence with unparalleled energy. As he stood there, his strong aura stood out so intensely that no one could move their eyes away from him. Langston, Calvin, and all spiritual emperors in the void became background in contrast to him.
Arthur, the Sky-breaking Emperor, for whom all creatures in the Western Land had a sense of respect, admiration, and even fear, could probably be qualified to be the strongest warrior in the Western Land.
As the previous chief of the Sky-breaking Dome, he was claimed himself as the Sky-breaking Emperor. It only meant that he was the most powerful warrior in the Western Land.
"I didn't expect the Sky-breaking Emperor to save Carney. He left a Space Sign on Carney's body so that he could take him away from Langston's Small World. After all, Langston is just a lower grade spiritual emperor," the warriors whispered.
"I don't think the Spirit Sect will let this go. It would be too shameful for them. Besides, the warriors from the Spirit Sect hate Carney so much because every time he made a breakthrough, he would always go to challenge the Spirit Sect!"
With Arthur's appearance, the two Dominant Top Elders of the Spirit Sect also arrived consecutively to each other.
The two old men who were dressed in burlap cloth emitted powerful energy comparable to that of Arthur.
One was the Mason, who was called the Spiritual Mountain Emperor, and the other was Easton, who was called the Spiritual Water Emperor.
"Mason," Arthur called out, "creating Space Signs such as this is one of my defense methods and is therefore not illegal in this competition." He looked at the two Dominant Top Elders with cold indifference.
"Arthur, you have your methods, but our Spirit Sect also have our rules. Since Carney and Kenney have signed a deathmatch contract, they should fight to the death," Mason stated.
"Now that your method has broken our rules, we must settle this."
"Is that so? How exactly should we settle this?" Arthur said frigidly.
"Of course we're going to have to take Carney away from you, and then let him continue the ultimate battle with Kenney." Mason responded.
"Well, Mason, I'm already here. So I'm sorry, but the battle has to be postponed." Arthur grew colder and more frigid as he sensed the hostility in Mason's tone. Arthur chuckled mirthlessly. "Did you think that you two would be able to take Carney away from me?
I'm not afraid of going against the so-called morality. You, the Spirit Sect have your rules, while I have my own methods. The law of this world is just as cruel as the law of the jungle. Today you will fail to stop me from saving Carney because you are not strong enough!"
The energy from his body suddenly surged out as soon as he finished his words.
All the warriors immediately retreated—they didn't want to be caught up in the oncoming fight and die in vain.
However, they didn't really think that the three strongest warriors would actually start fighting. Although the Sky-breaking Dome was the strongest force, the Spirit Sect was also powerful.
If a fight did break out, both sides would suffer great losses.
The three strongest warriors were hoping to avoid that result.
"Arthur, I have to admit that you are powerful and you are indeed qualified to be the first place in the Western Land. However, in my opinion, that doesn't mean you'll surely become the strongest one whom all of us would recognize to be. And today, to welcome your arrival, we have prepared an array at the level of the middle spiritual emperor, to be deployed especially for you," Mason said in a mocking tone.
The two Dominant Top Elders then knitted their hands together and gathered their strength.
