Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City

For Ye Ling, now that all of his life's essence sources had completely appeared, it signified that the strong entity was ready to close the net.

The preparations for closing the net had been made, which also meant that the final battle was about to unfold.

And Steward, too, was no longer prepared to hide anything. At this time, all the golden light had been reduced to the last one, signaling the end of the game.

"Haha! I, the Pharaoh, have finally obtained this treasure. With my breakthrough to the next realm, I will be invincible in the world!"

The Pharaoh roared, his Scepter now drenched with blood, the thick scent of blood enveloping it.

Not just the Pharaoh, five of the Guardians had also obtained four pieces, and the remaining two had been seized by two hidden powerhouses. With that, all the golden light had been taken.

At this moment, Old Sterr smiled coldly, "Ye Ling, what you really should consider is whether to stay with the Sterr Family, or face the same fate as them."

Having spoken, Old Sterr slowly descended. Ye Ling smiled lightly, the old fox was finally showing his true face.

"Gentlemen, didn't we agree to leave four pieces for my Sterr Family? You've taken all the treasures for yourselves, isn't that a bit untrustworthy?"

Old Sterr chuckled. The other powerhouses who had obtained the treasures burst into loud laughter. From over fifty people, only less than twenty remained, the strongest of all.

They had survived a fierce battle to obtain these treasures, and now Old Sterr's words only made them laugh even harder.

"Haha! Old Sterr, aren't you being too fanciful? Could it be that you think this young man from Huaxia can really suppress us?"

"Perhaps before, we would have felt the pressure, but now, sorry to say!"

Boom! A series of earth-shaking auras soared into the sky as the powerhouses who had obtained the treasures broke through strongly, excitement flashing across their faces.

Each of them was a prominent figure from the Western Continent, absolute powerhouses. They had been blocked by a single realm for who knows how many years, but now, they had finally broken through.

The power brought by strength plunged them into a state of intoxication, a sensation that was incredibly addicting, a kind of indescribable comfort.

As the powerhouses one by one made their breakthroughs, they became even more frenzied, looking at Ye Ling and Old Sterr with disdain.

"I'm sorry, Old Sterr, your Sterr Family has contributed such a precious treasure to us. We don't have much to thank you with, so just a word of thanks, eh?"

"Haha! Yes, indeed. Rest assured, if the Sterr Family ever needs something, we'll definitely lend a hand when convenient."

All the powerhouses who had obtained the treasures laughed uproariously, while those who hadn't were gritting their teeth in anger and frustration, features dark with fury.

Among them was Emperor Yasi, his gaze icily fixed on a wild man with disheveled hair beside him, his eyes even containing a hint of wariness.

This bastard was too strong, making him feel almost incapable of retaliation, and the other brothers were still contending for their own treasures, unable to pay him any heed.

Thus, among the five Guardians, only Emperor Yasi had not secured a treasure, which irritated him.

"You all have statuses to keep. Words spoken are like water poured out, isn't your dishonorable behavior contrary to your positions?"

Old Sterr chuckled lightly, seemingly not the least bit afraid, instead his smile was cryptic.

"Tsk, tsk, old man! We give you face by calling you Old Sterr, without giving you face, I'd just call you Dead Sterr!"

Roar! A powerhouse who had broken through to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage charged at Old Sterr like a madman. His smile was ferocious, with thunder flickering in his palm, appearing and disappearing, brimming with terrifying might.

The other strong contenders were staring intently at Ye Ling, eager to see if he would dare to make a forceful move under the vigilance of so many powerful figures.

Once Ye Ling made his move, half of the strong ones here would probably take action instantly, those who had been oppressed by Ye Ling before their breakthrough, each and every one of them thought of slaying this bastard by their own hands.

To their disappointment, Ye Ling remained unmoved, even wearing a calm expression with a smile that nevertheless carried a chill of eeriness.

"Steward! Die!"

The strong one roared, yet the Steward burst into loud laughter, pointing a single finger to the sky, and suddenly, a terrifying power burst forth instantly, enveloping the entire heavens and earth.

Boom! A thunderous noise echoed, dominating this realm, while the strong one who had approached the Steward suddenly collapsed, his body limp and devoid of strength, all his power gone.

"This! This is impossible! What kind of trick have you used against me?" The strong one who had clearly reached the Transcendence Tribulation Stage exclaimed in shock. His power was already unparalleled before his breakthrough; after transcending, he stood at the pinnacle of humanity.

And now, he was completely suppressed by the Steward's mere finger?

All the strong ones felt a shiver in their hearts, a bad premonition rising; across them, the Steward's smile remained.

"You greedy wretches, telling lies will incur punishment, do you know that?"

"The treasures of the Sterr Family are not for anyone to take at will, and clearly, you do not possess the qualifications."

After the Steward finished speaking, he lightly pointed his finger towards those who had taken away the treasures; suddenly, those who were touched by the Steward felt an invincible, bizarre power forcibly stripping away the strength within their bodies.

"What! What is this! Bastard!"

"Impossible! Steward! You bastard, what exactly are you doing! Stop it right now!"

All who had obtained the treasures screamed in agony, collapsing to the ground, while the Pharaoh and several other strong ones at the half-step Tribulation Transcending level sat in anguish, desperately resisting the power eroding inside them.

"This power! What in the world is it!"

One by one, the strong ones gritted their teeth, their complexions as pale as paper, sweat pouring down their foreheads like rain.

And their realms, after just having broken through, plummeted instantly, falling back to their previous levels.

But the horror was not over yet; their realms were crazily dropping in this instant.

"No! This can't be!"

The Pharaoh roared, his life's power being stripped away at this moment. He yelled in defiance, almost as if driven mad.

The other strong ones too were in excruciating pain, having lived for several hundred years and endured all manner of horrors to reach this step, but now they watched helplessly as it all turned to ash.

At this time, Ye Ling shook his head and leaped down.

"You lot, a bunch of fools, can't you see yet? The Steward set a trap, and we all fell into it without exception."

"What treasure, what nonsense about breaking through realms, it's all fake, a group of fools."

Ye Ling shook his head and sighed bitterly.

"Why are you unharmed!"

The Pharaoh roared, and the Steward turned around, facing Ye Ling with a cold sneer.

"Dear Ye Ling, please state your choice, become part of the Sterr Family, or end up like them!"
