Chapter 379: The Manro Empress, Man And Wife Become Enemies
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
This was a desert that stretched far beyond one’s vision. The endless sea of sand gave off an aura of desolation, dead silence, and sweltering heat and stretched on to the end of the skies.
The Great Pompeii Desert!
This was the biggest desert in the Earth Divine Realm and the whole wide universe!
None could compare to it!
A ten-colored “sun” hung high above the Great Pompeii Desert.
The sun radiated an infinite number of multi-colored rays of light that fell upon the land, dyeing the boundless yellow sea of sand in colors and turning it into a sea of colored lights.
The people living in the desert were the first to notice the natural phenomenon. Among them, the strongest faction to have occupied the Great Pompeii Desert for years on end was the Desert Manro Nagas.
The Desert Manro Nagas were half-human and half-snake. They had a human’s upper torso but a snake’s lower body. Due to being extraordinarily gifted and having a strong reproductive ability and owing to the Great Pompeii Desert’s naturally favorable living environment, Desert Manro Nagas tribes could be found all over the desert.
Apart from that, as innumerable desert divine beasts inhabited the Great Pompeii Desert, the desert was also heaven for the adventurers. Every year, innumerable adventurers ventured to the Great Pompeii Desert to hunt divine beasts and earn Divinity Crystals.
Thus, the multi-colored sun immediately caught the attention of the Desert Manro Nagas and innumerable adventurers the moment it appeared. They came from various corners of the desert and converged in hopes of getting a glimpse of the truth behind the multi-colored sun.
Unfortunately, the closer they went to the multi-colored sun, the stronger the force of its presence. Many deities had no choice but to give up mid-way, and only the strong could continue to forge ahead.
Toward the end, the only ones that could truly go near the multi-colored sun were the elder-class high-level higher deities. Everyone else was powerless to do so despite their desire to.
“A Chief God divine core!”
“It’s definitely a Chief God divine core’s aura!”
A gorgeous, sensual beauty with a golden snake tail arrived at the bottom, gazing at the multi-colored sun hanging high in the sky with white-hot fervency in her beautiful eyes.
She was the Manro Empress, the empress of the Desert Manro Nagas, and also the most powerful among them. She was far stronger than a high-level higher deity and was infinitely close to becoming a Great Perfection deity.
Behind her were two elderly Nagas, one an old man and the other an old lady. They were elders of the Desert Manro Nagas and had come along to protect the Manro Empress.
“Once I assimilate that Chief God divine core, I shall rise to become a lofty Chief God in a single step! I’ll be able to lead us, the Desert Manro Nagas, out of the Great Pompeii Desert and make a thorough emergence!
“Mine! The divine core is mine!”
Whoosh!
Unable to suppress the greed and desire in her heart any longer, the Manro Empress turned into a beam of light that shot straight toward the multi-colored sun. In spite of that, there was someone else that moved even faster than she did.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
At practically almost the same time, two other light beams also shot simultaneously toward the sun in the sky.
The sight of the other two made the Manro Empress fuming mad. She snapped, “The audacity of you, elders! How dare you snatch what belongs to me!”
That’s right!
The ones trying to get ahead of the Manro Empress were none other than the two elders whom she had brought with her!
Never had the Manro Empress ever imagined that those two old farts that usually obeyed her every order and were incredibly loyal to her would betray her in this instant!
This greatly infuriated the Manro Empress.
Boom!
The Manro Empress displayed her full power, and her speed abruptly went through a sharp increase. She instantly caught up to the two elders and stood in their way with an icy-cold expression.
“How dare you betray me! You should die for that!”
The two Naga elders’ expressions changed greatly upon sensing the cold, sharp killing intent around the Manro Empress. They said, “Please pardon us, Your Majesty! We were just trying to fetch the divine core for Your Majesty!”
“That’s right, Your Majesty. We’re loyal and devoted to you and have never once thought of betraying you. Your Majesty, I hope you can look into the matter and show understanding for our difficulties!”
“What empty rhetoric! Do you really think I’ll believe that?” scoffed the Manro Empress with an icy look on her face as she raised her palm, ready to kill the duo.
Unexpectedly, the Naga old man suddenly shouted, “Wait a moment, Your Majesty! Someone’s rushing toward the Chief God divine core!”
“What?”
The look on the Manro Empress’ pretty face changed drastically, and she hastily turned to look at the multi-colored sun.
“Die!”
A savage look came over the Naga old man’s countenance, and his fist went smashing out. A murderous gleam similarly surfaced in the Naga old woman’s eyes, and she threw a punch with everything she had at the Manro Empress.
The pair attacked with incredible swiftness. Even though the Manro Empress was a notch stronger than the two of them, she was still caught off-guard and fell for their tricks.
Boom!
Boom!
The two punches struck the Manro Empress, causing her to cough up a mouthful of blood. She let out a tragic cry as the attacks sent her flying like a broken kite.
The two elders exchanged a look after they sent the Manro Empress flying, and then they shot toward the multi-colored sun once more.
“Traitors! Goddamn traitors!”
The Manro Empress coughed up another few mouthfuls of blood as she steadied herself. Her features were all contorted as she watched the two elders in the sky, the look on her face as if she wanted to tear them into halves with her own hands or shoot those two motherf*ckers down with a gun from 800 miles away.
They were getting nearer and nearer! Nearer and nearer!
As super experts, the two Naga elders gritted their teeth and tried their best to endure the terrifying pressure given off by the multi-colored sun as they went nearer and nearer to it.
At last, only a short few meters stood between them and the sun!
The two elderly Nagas could already see the irregularly-shaped Chief God divine core, as well as the multi-colored patterns characteristic of a Chief God divine core on its surface. The two elderly Nagas’ hearts started to pound intensely for a moment there.
A stone’s throw away!
This was truly what “a stone’s throw away” was!
They were only a step away from becoming a supreme Chief God and rising to become one of the greatest existences in the Earth Divine Realm and even the whole wide universe!
“It’s mine!!”
The two of them shouted in their minds and used every last ounce of strength they had to grab at the divine core. In that instant, they had even forgotten about each other’s existence. The only thing they had in their eyes was the divine core itself!
Thud!
The two of them caught hold of the Chief God divine core at the same time. A warm and soft sensation spread throughout their palms, causing their hearts to tremble. Catching hold of the Chief God divine core was tantamount to catching hold of everything in the world!
The true blue meaning of “everything”!
“I’m about to become a Chief God!”
“I’m about to become a Chief God!”
The two of them were so excited that they were beside themselves with delight. They then applied force at the same time, both wanting to pull the Chief God divine core to themselves—only to discover that they couldn’t move the divine core at all. It was only then that they noticed each other’s presence.
“Old woman, hurry and let go!” The Naga old man shouted, “The Chief God divine core is mine!”
“What nonsense! The Chief God divine core is mine! Mine!” The Naga old woman remained firm. “You’re the one that should be letting go! I’m the one that’s going to become a Chief God!”
“Old woman, I’ve yielded to you my whole life. Can’t you yield to me this one time today?”
The Naga old man had a hint of pleading in his eyes as he said, “The Chief God divine core has created too great a commotion. Numerous experts must be hurrying here right now. We don’t have much time anymore. Hurry and let go!”
“Hmph! Since you’ve already yielded to me your whole life, what’s the harm in yielding to me one more time?”
The Naga old woman let out an icy snort. Then, her voice suddenly turned exceptionally gentle as she said, “Old man, why don’t you think about whether there’s any difference as to whether it’s you or I that become a Chief God? Besides, I can swear a divine oath that I’ll never leave you and will always protect you even if I become a Chief God!”
“Old woman, I’ll never leave you, either, I swear!”
The Naga old man said anxiously, “Large numbers of experts are about to rush here now. We don’t have much time anymore! Are you going to watch as the Chief God divine core ends up in someone else’s hands?”
“I’m not letting go! The Chief God divine core is min—”
“Alright, you guys. Make way, please!”
