Chapter 671: Strange Golden Cicada, Myriad Demon Emperor Wizard Sovereign Emerges, Laozi Immortal

Hiss—

In the void, turbulent currents intertwined, a terrifying bloody smell spread and intertwined, a strong stench that almost overturned rivers and seas!

Li Che's eyes flickered with doubt and solemnity, and he couldn't help but look toward the direction where the Human Emperor Dihong and the Immortal Golden Cicada clashed in the void battlefield.

Although the Human Emperor Dihong's current strength is already far below its peak, due to the fall of the spirits of the Dihong Ancient Village, his people keep dwindling, and as one who follows the Human Emperor's path, he has suffered a huge blow and weakening.

That said, the Human Emperor Dihong who walked the Human Emperor's path is indeed ridiculously strong, having withstood eight generations of divine tides before weakening to his present state.

At his peak, the Human Emperor Dihong's strength could rival a half-step Sovereign, a true existence standing at the pinnacle of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

So, such an existence, even though it is now far inferior to its peak, surely cannot be slain by this newly risen Immortal Golden Cicada, a heavenly immortal, right?

And yet it was sliced into three pieces with a single strike—this is utterly absurd, completely abnormal!

How can the Immortal Golden Cicada be this strong?

Li Che furrowed his brows, a great doubt welling up in his heart.

In fact, it wasn't just Li Che who was shocked; all the heavenly immortals engaged in battle in the Taisu Heaven's space battlefield were plunged into astonishment.

How did the Immortal Golden Cicada manage that?

Human Emperor Dihong…… has he become this weak?!

The Taiyi Immortal layered countless shadows, intertwining demonic qi, and forcibly suppressed the Immortal Demon Emperor.

The Taiyi Immortal is an existence with sovereign-level strength, though not top-tier sovereign, yet the Immortal Demon Emperor cannot contend with it.

The Immortal Demon Emperor was like a ball, his skin split and flesh torn, his primordial power continually spilling out.

Everyone shifted their gaze, took a look, and couldn't help but sigh—this is the proper scene of a sovereign-level suppression over an ordinary heavenly immortal!

"Immortal Golden Cicada..."

"There's a problem!"

At this moment, every deity's mind surfaced this thought.

But the Immortal Golden Cicada had already broken through space and fled, its speed absurdly fast, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

Li Che narrowed his eyes, streams of light intertwining in his pupils, while the spacetime golden wheel dao fruit in his chest trembled slightly.

"It was the Buddha of Fixed Light who made a move, guiding the Immortal Golden Cicada to find an opportunity to retreat."

If the Buddha of Fixed Light had acted, then it would be normal.

As a rather mysterious Buddha within the Black Sumeru, he likewise possesses sovereign-level strength, so it's understandable that he could take away the Immortal Golden Cicada.

But……

Li Che still harbored doubts.

After all, slaying the Human Emperor Dihong is no easy feat; even if he has fallen to the level of a sovereign-level gatekeeper, wanting to cut him into three pieces, the Buddha of Fixed Light might not be able to do it.

Moreover, if the Buddha of Fixed Light truly unleashed such carnage, there would certainly be some disturbance.

Li Che had not sensed anything earlier, so his intuition told him it was definitely not the Buddha of Fixed Light's doing; the Immortal Golden Cicada that slew the Human Emperor Dihong is the real problem!

Boom——!!!

The Human Emperor Dihong's body, severed into three chunks, suddenly erupted with a terrifying qi-blood storm, reassembling itself.

His complexion turned extremely grim and pallid, his aura dropping considerably.

Li Che glanced at the Human Emperor Dihong.

The Human Emperor Dihong naturally sensed Li Che's gaze, instantly feeling a bit embarrassed.

As a sovereign-level heavenly immortal, he had specially picked the weakest opponent to detain, but instead the opponent cut him into three segments and even got away.

All that can be said……

Too embarrassing!

"The Immortal Golden Cicada is the problem, not this emperor!"

The Human Emperor Dihong could only blush as he explained in one sentence.

"Come help me."

The Taiyi Immortal sighed, unwilling to see his old friend so embarrassed and constrained; after all, the Human Emperor Dihong once stood at the peak, now fallen to the valley's bottom, yet he shouldn't become the object of everyone's mockery.

The Human Emperor Dihong immediately breathed a sigh of relief and then rushed to kill the Immortal Demon Emperor.

The Immortal Demon Emperor was already struggling against the Taiyi Immortal, his body drenched in blood; with the Human Emperor Dihong joining, the Immortal Demon Emperor's eyes turned blood-red as he let out a furious, anguished roar.

Bang——!!!

The Immortal Demon Emperor coughed up blood, the demonic qi on his body seeming about to dissipate, unable to sustain, on the verge of total collapse and scattering.

He kept coughing up blood, his complexion horribly grim!

He was both shocked and angry, never expecting that the King of Earth's Treasury could, in such a short time, grow to such heights, even gathering so many strong ones.

Most importantly, how could these two sovereign-level heavenly immortals of the Two Saints Ancient Village—the Human Emperor Dihong and the Taiyi Immortal—be on the side of the Prison Lotus faction?

This is totally unreasonable!

The Immortal Demon Emperor drenched in blood, his fury uncontainable.

Because the Human Emperor Dihong seemed to vent all the frustration and anger from being sliced into three by the Immortal Golden Cicada onto the Immortal Demon Emperor.

He coiled the Human Emperor's great sword in his hand, terrifying sword light spanning the heavens, then slashed down at the Immortal Demon Emperor, aiming to cut him into three pieces!

"Damn! Human Emperor Dihong, you shameless bastard!"

"If you've got the guts, go kill your way into Black Sumeru and find that Immortal Golden Cicada—what's the point of slashing me?"

The Immortal Demon Emperor roared in anger!

He kept coughing up blood, being hacked by the furious Human Emperor Dihong until his body was covered in wounds.

However, just as the Taiyi Immortal and the Human Emperor Dihong were about to end the Immortal Demon Emperor's life...

Suddenly.

Behind the Immortal Demon Emperor, the void seemed to collapse.

A tremendously thick snake tail, covered in scale-like plates, swept out suddenly, as if it were a divine whip that could lash apart heaven and earth.

The void kept collapsing, unable to bear the weight beneath the snake tail.

The Human Emperor's great sword, wielded by the Human Emperor, trembled instantly, with a clear clang, was swept away violently, like a meteor, slicing through the void.

And the Human Emperor, with his arms crossed before him, was also smashed and sank, his whole body shooting out.

Almost being lashed to explosion!

Such terrifying power is absolutely a top-tier existence among Imperial-level Eternal Immortals.

Li Che, who was suppressing the Eternal God Emperor, couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

Another situation?!

"Who is this?"

Li Che's eyes were cold.

The Eternal God Emperor, miserably suppressed by Li Che, had his eyes faintly light up.

I never expected that this existence would also choose to act at this moment; then there is still hope to break the situation!

"Witch Emperor!!!"

The Human Emperor's wounds healed; he raised his hand, aiming far off at the direction where the Human Emperor's great sword had been flung, the sword shot back and he grasped it again.

His eyes were filled with coldness and fury!

Being swept away by the Witch Emperor's tail, nearly blown apart—what humiliation!

Why is it always him who gets injured?!

Boom—

The void collapsed and shattered, as if an immensely rich aura of life and death surged forth, then transformed into a vast and pure demonic aura.

Amid the tremor of the demonic aura, it seemed as if an unparalleled ancient demon was roaring.

Li Che's gaze fell upon the collapsing void, and he saw a figure seated cross-legged upon a Yin-Yang Dao diagram.

That figure wore a Daoist robe, but his lower body was a long snake tail; his hair hung over his shoulders, his pupils dark as if reflecting the endless cosmos and starry sky.

"Witch Emperor!"

One of the Two Emperors of the Guigu Demon Lair… the Witch Emperor!

The Witch Emperor, standing equal to the Nuwa Emperor!

Even Li Che felt his heart tremble slightly at this moment, looking over in disbelief.

The Witch Emperor, that is an existence of the same rank as the Nuwa Emperor.

Not merely a strong Imperial-level, he can even be called a half-step Sovereign-level existence!

Li Che's eyes sank, he had overlooked the Witch Emperor…

This existence has always had a faint presence; even when he appeared in the Divine Craft Heaven and chose to open the Divine Craft Heaven, the Witch Emperor never stepped forward to say anything.

I never expected that he would act now, intending to rescue the Eternal Demon Emperor.

Thud thud thud—

In Li Che's chest, a terrifying vibrating sound like a shockwave continually washed over his body, making him tremble all over.

Li Che drew a deep breath, staring at the Witch Emperor seated cross-legged upon the Yin-Yang Dao diagram.

"The Myriad Demon Emperor Dao Fruit… at this moment, it has reacted."

"Witch Emperor… is he the lord of the Myriad Demon Emperor Dao Fruit?"

Li Che couldn't help but draw a deep breath, his mind also couldn't help but think.

This possibility is very great.

Because the Myriad Demon Emperor Dao Fruit has always been calm, with no movement, yet at this moment, due to the Witch Emperor's appearance, it produced such a violent reaction.

The Witch Emperor is highly likely to be the lord of the Myriad Demon Emperor Dao Fruit.

In other words, Li Che has again confirmed a lord of a Dao Fruit!

The lord of the Myriad Demon Emperor Dao Fruit, the Witch Emperor!

Boom—

Li Che's six blood-qi vortices behind him trembled, his whole body erupting in golden blood-qi; as the Thunder Magnetic Orbital Dao Fruit vibrated, countless lightning arcs turned into armor covering his body, and he struck toward the Eternal God Emperor.

Li Che ignored the Witch Emperor, intending to first deal with the Eternal God Emperor!

First, let's raise the Thunder Magnetic Orbital Dao Fruit to the ninth transformation!

Perhaps because the Immaculate Heart Dao Fruit successfully reached the ninth transformation, Li Che's will increased, so when facing a Dao Fruit lord directly, the Dao Fruit could sense and confirm the likelihood that the other is a Dao Fruit lord, greatly increasing that possibility.

Of course, this possibility is not 100%, because beings capable of reaching the level of a Dao Fruit lord are certainly not ordinary.

Not every Dao Fruit lord can necessarily be sensed.

Because the other party can actively shield their perception; when they have not yet revealed any power or ability related to the Dao Fruit, even a ninth-transformation Immaculate Heart Dao Fruit finds it hard to perceive their situation.

Li Che withdrew his mind, no longer paying attention to the Witch Emperor's battle.

Thud—!!!

Terrifying thunder ripple rings spread outward.

The Eternal God Emperor, bloodied all over, after a clash with Li Che, was forcibly suppressed; Li Che's killing intent grew ever stronger, continually rising.

The Eternal God Emperor felt his thunder power as if continually suppressed, completely overwhelmed by Li Che, like living in Li Che's shadow.

It seemed he shouldn't be the Thunder Lord; Li Che is!

"Who the hell are you?!"

The Eternal God Emperor, drenched in blood, stared fixedly at Li Che.

At this point, he had already sensed a foul odor; Li Che's body might conceal a tremendous secret.

"Ksitigarbha… who exactly are you?"

Is it really to end the existence of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths?

The Immortal God Emperor took a deep breath.

The plan of the three major divine gods' camp spirits lasted for the Eighth Generation God Tide, but in this generation's god tide, it completely collapsed, shattered into pieces.

All the culprits are this Earth Store King.

Where did this Earth Store King come from?

This Earth Store King even wants to walk the Martial Immortal Open Heaven Path, opening up the three great heavenly domains controlled by the Dark Heavenly Court.

You don't need to know...

The karma between us, knowing it is not good for you.

Li Che said.

After the words fell, full firepower.

The Heaven-Earth Eight Symbols Sword slashed out!

When the terrifying thunder erupted, like a star formed from thunder, unable to bear the load, it underwent the most terrifying explosion!

The energy ripples and shockwaves from the impact, like expanding circles of water, enveloped the entire void battlefield!

Whoosh—

Li Che hovered in the spatial battlefield, his qi and blood like golden flames, blazing fiercely.

The Immortal God Emperor was cut down by him; the power of the Heaven-Earth Eight Symbols Sword was extremely terrifying, even cutting down the Immortal God Emperor's immortal will together!

The Immortal God Emperor's primordial heavenly thunder exploded, yet it formed the most terrifying slaughter.

But although these primordial heavenly thunders were detonated by the Immortal God Emperor, intending to pull a mutual destruction, the Immortal God Emperor will ultimately be disappointed, because the current Li Che is a Magnetic Orbital Body Dao Fruit.

The Magnetic Orbital Body Dao Fruit, like a black hole, swallowed all the heavenly thunder primordials.

The Immortal God Emperor's will drifted in the void, slowly dissipating.

He bitterly smiled watching, like sand and stone disappearing.

He stared at Li Che, then exhaled, as if completely relaxing.

I saw it.

He deeply looked at Li Che.

On Li Che's body, he saw a fruit formed from intertwined lightning.

That fruit...

It gave him an intense feeling of familiarity.

That fruit is a product condensed from the primordial source of the Heavenly Dao!

What a pity...

Perhaps, this is the variable of the Eighth Generation God Tide.

Dark Heavenly Court... what a pity.

From now on.

No more Dark Heavenly Court.

With the fall of the Immortal God Emperor, it means the era of the Dark Heavenly Court is completely over.

Above the Endless Sea.

The Heaven-Passing God Emperor stood in the mouth of the Netherworld.

He stood with hands behind his back, his robes fluttering, hair strands hanging on his shoulders, each strand sharp like sword qi.

He gazed into the distance, looking at the great battle of the Tai Su Heaven Void Battlefield.

When the heavens and earth were dyed blood-red, when the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were bleeding, countless blood-colored thunderbolts surged forth.

The Heaven-Passing God Emperor let out a long sigh.

He looked into the distance, sitting calmly and leisurely, the Immortal Old Master shook his head.

The Immortal Old Master won't care much about his death; his thoughts are too deep, unfathomable, inscrutable.

The Dark Heavenly Court cannot rely on the Immortal Old Master.

Lost, all lost.

The divine gods' camp Dark Heavenly Court, in this generation's god tide, has been completely destroyed.

The Heaven-Passing God Emperor sighed.

Hum—

The Immortal God Emperor fell, the divine spirit's will vanished between heaven and earth.

And Li Che instantly felt the Magnetic Orbital Body Dao Fruit, at this moment like a black hole, after swallowing myriad heavenly thunder primordials, its maturity continuously soaring.

The speed of the dao fruit's maturity impact is extremely fast, almost can be said to be a soaring rise!

Instantly it broke through the barrier of the dao fruit's wall like.

Boom—

Li Che only felt, as if the evening drum and morning bell came from his ears.

In the buzzing of his mind, his aura rose step by step, the Magnetic Orbital Body Dao Fruit, charging through the eight metamorphoses to impact the nine metamorphoses dao fruit wall, like water flowing to the channel, he stepped into the nine metamorphoses.

He cut down the master of the Magnetic Orbital Body Dao Fruit, completing the transformation of the final metamorphosis of the dao fruit!

【Dao Fruit: Magnetic Orbital Body (Nine Metamorphoses, Perfection)】

Before his eyes, brilliant golden lightning intertwined and emerged.

Li Che felt as if his pores were struck by thunder power at this moment, suddenly opening, his powerful aura rising step by step, as if about to tear apart the heavens!

In a daze, Li Che seemed to see the Dao Tree space, seeing that tree shooting up into the clouds, constantly swaying.

Upon it, another nine-transformed Dao Fruit ripened, with a soft pop it fell from the Dao Tree, floating around it, emitting brilliant thunderlight, like stars!

Li Che stood rooted in place, his aura climbing steadily.

His eyes suddenly opened, as if rolling heavenly thunder flashed across.

Behind him, it seemed a thunder pool was turning, heavenly thunder power constantly swirling within, and Li Che's qi and blood seemed infused with thunder's might, under constant compression bursting forth with unprecedented terrifying power.

Even the void was collapsing, shattering!

……

……

"He grew stronger again..."

The Immortal Old Sovereign lifted the Diamond Pestle with his palm, his Daoist robe fluttering, his beard and hair flying.

He looked at Li Che, whose back bore a rotating thunder pool, with an extremely complex expression.

The Immortal God Emperor was beheaded.

That is, the master of the Dark Heavenly Court was beheaded, utterly collapsed; lacking the Immortal God Emperor, the Dark Heavenly Court ceased to exist.

Unless, one acknowledges Li Che, who commands heavenly thunder, as the martial immortal who opened the three great heavenly domains of the Dark Heavenly Court, to be its master, only then can the Dark Heavenly Court continue.

Qi Tian and the Third Prince joined forces to suppress the Immortal Old Sovereign's attacks.

The Immortal Old Sovereign incessantly threw out elixirs; each elixir jumped in the void, crackling, actually transforming into heavenly soldiers and generals.

Scatter elixirs to form soldiers!

Moreover, different elixirs can even transform into powerful beings of varying strength!

The Immortal Old Sovereign's beard and hair flew as he flicked his horsetail whisk; a wave of elixirs fell like rain, transforming into countless heavenly soldiers and generals, arrayed in formation, charging forth.

The two imperial-level powers of Qi Tian and the Third Prince were actually held off single-handedly by the Immortal Old Sovereign.

However, Qi Tian and the Third Prince are no longer what they once were; now the Hellish Qi Tian and Hellish Third Prince possess terrifyingly great strength.

The heavenly soldiers and generals transformed from elixirs were continually blown up and exploded.

The Immortal Old Sovereign narrowed his eyes.

He took out a black jade bottle from his sleeve.

He lightly sighed, pouring out two elixirs from it—one black, one white—which transformed into two heavenly generals.

Clad in black armor and white armor respectively, each commanded the heavenly soldiers and generals formed from scattering beans.

For a moment, Qi Tian and the Third Prince were indeed blocked.

After the Immortal Old Sovereign leisurely finished these, he then looked toward Li Che, his gaze deep and complex.

Facing the current situation, he did not overly worry or fret, as if everything lay within his control.

Even though the Immortal God Emperor had been beheaded by Li Che, the Immortal Old Sovereign remained calm, as if… it was meant to be.

Li Che, who was sensing the transformation of the nine-transformed Dao Fruit of the Thunder Magnetic Orb, suddenly opened his eyes.

As his head turned, lightning intertwined and flickered within his pupils; Li Che felt something and looked toward the Immortal Old Sovereign.

At the moment their gazes met.

Li Che's heart involuntarily jumped.

This familiar feeling…

Immortal Old Sovereign, could he also be a master of a Dao Fruit?!
