Chapter 270

Questioned by a large black dog, that ancestor king's face turned green; with his status, when had he ever experienced such a thing?

Don't act rashly, beneath his neck lies the Great Emperor Killing Formation.

That ancient king was about to make a move, but was blocked by the Twin Kings; since the Black Emperor appeared, they have been staring fixedly at that silver plate, deeply wary.

Great Emperor Killing Formation...

Hearing this, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air, even those ancient royal clans were no exception.

Just hanging the Great Emperor Killing Formation below his neck, this level of extravagance could leave any faction speechless, simply overbearing beyond measure!

And this is also a major reason for the Black Emperor's bravery; at worst, he could throw out the Great Emperor Killing Formation and then make a swift escape.

Others may fear you, but this emperor is not afraid! You come out shouting, isn't it because you all firmly believe the Beginningless Great Emperor has already passed away? I now responsibly tell you, the Great Emperor has not passed away!

As soon as the Black Emperor spoke these words, the Jade Pool trembled, emotions surged, unable to stay calm!

These words came from the mouth of the great black dog that had followed the Beginningless Great Emperor, obviously making them highly credible.

Impossible, the Beginningless already passed away tens of thousands of years ago!

An ancestor king loudly objected, they had reason to suspect this was merely a fabrication by the human race to intimidate them.

Tch, believe it or not, anyway this emperor responsibly tells you, at today's gathering you won't gain any advantage.

The Black Emperor spoke with solemn confidence, his tone extremely certain, really not sounding like he was spouting nonsense.

Those who should have come have mostly arrived.

Suddenly, a voice sounded; outside the Jade Pool, a tunnel tore through the void, and a figure stepped out from within.

In the next moment, various omens appeared: heavenly auspiciousness descended, earthly immortal lotuses surged, the four auspicious beasts—true dragon coiling, immortal phoenix spreading wings—harmonized around him, while myriad chaotic mists entwined.

Yang Zhu's body was crystalline, his breath inwardly restrained, wearing a black robe that fluttered, he stood calmly; his black hair flowed like a waterfall, each strand crystalline, emitting a divine radiance.

He walked step by step, revealing no divine power within, yet with each footfall came the resonant toll of the Great Dao's heavenly tone, stirring the hearts and minds of all present.

Boom—

Myriad thunders rumbled, as if in submission, even the stars in the heavens fell down, clinging to his side.

The order of heaven and earth flickered, illuminating the nine heavens, myriad auspicious colors poured down, flooding this place in a expanse of peace and sanctity.

It's him... the Holy Body Dao Embryo!

It is our human race's Holy Body Dao Embryo, he has finally returned! Back then he surpassed the younger generation of the Eastern Wasteland; now returning, he will surely suppress the Heavenly Prince and the Huang Xu Dao and others!

Upon seeing Yang Zhu, everyone was immensely excited; since the ancient clans emerged, the human race has suffered continual defeats, and the younger generation has had none who could rival the Heavenly Prince and his ilk.

A feeling of despair and suffocation that cannot be dispelled; at this moment we need someone to step forward.

And Yang Zhu, this number one evildoer who dominates the five regions, is the best choice!

This is... the aura of the Beginningless Great Emperor!

On the Towering Heaven Dao Platform, a group of ancestor kings, upon sensing a wisp of aura emanating from Yang Zhu's body, all turned to stone, a fear rising from the depths of their souls.

Even after becoming ancestor kings, able to command a clan, the fear of that bloodline cannot be erased! 'Imperial Son!'

The Black Emperor shouted, transforming into a streak of black light that leapt to Yang Zhu's side, accompanying him left and right.

……

Before the crowd could recover from their excitement, the Black Emperor's single word 'Imperial Son' silenced the previously bustling divine land to the point where a pin drop could be heard.

The Beginningless Imperial Son is here; I'll see how you make a ruckus, then I'll suppress you all!

The Black Emperor's confidence now grew even stronger, almost pointing at that group of ancestor kings as he shouted.

Within the Jade Pool's immortal soil lay a deathlike silence; everyone was stunned into a daze, unable to recover for a long while.

Yet some, unknowingly, had already reddened their eye sockets, not even realizing it themselves.

The Queen Mother of the West has seen the Imperial Son.

Above the Jade Pool, the Queen Mother of the West led a group of Grand Elders floating down, then they all knelt together.

Seeing this, many realized clearly that the people of the Jade Pool Holy Land had long known Yang Zhu's identity.

We have seen the Beginningless Imperial Son!

The birth of the human race's Imperial Son must be a manifestation of the Beginningless Great Emperor!

The sound of kowtowing echoed without end; countless myriad races on the field, over ninety percent, all bowed their heads to the ground.

Soon, all the humans present knelt and kowtowed together, respectful and sincere, their hearts feeling like surging ten-thousand-zhang waves, unable to calm; even those ancient royal clans softened their bodies and instinctively knelt, unable to resist in the slightest.

In the field, only a few stubborn ancient creatures with bluish-gray faces remained; they still refused to admit, nor dared to admit...

Great Emperor, we knew you would never stand idly by, you would manifest divine traces upon the world...

The birth of the human race's Imperial Son will surely suppress all evil and again protect your people from oppression.

Especially the older generation of strong ones, at this moment hot tears burst from their eyes, old tears flowing freely, excited to the point of being unable to control themselves, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

When the myriad ancient races emerged, they pressed the human race unable to breathe; looking across the vast human race, those able to contend with them were few and far between.

Now the birth of the human race's Imperial Son is undoubtedly a world-shaking news, certain to sweep every corner of the cosmos! No need for many words, the two words 'Imperial Son' alone can quell all chaos; moreover, he is the Beginningless Great Emperor famed as invincible!

You are the Heavenly Prince?

Yang Zhu swept his gaze around, his eyes landing on the Heavenly Prince and Gu Yuan; these two were among the few who had not knelt.

Yes.

The Heavenly Prince's face grew solemn; from Yang Zhu he felt an unprecedented crisis, even as strong as he himself, his heart could not help but pound wildly.

Whether bloodline, aura, fighting spirit, or Dao heart, it seems... far beyond what he can match.

Your father has decent talent, but you are lacking; you don't even qualify to be my opponent.

Yang Zhu's eyes were calm, just as he had expected; the Heavenly Prince had talent but an unstable Dao heart, ultimately unable to achieve anything.

Familiar? Forged in reference to your father's Heavenly Blade.

The Chaos Heavenly Blade appeared, firmly grasped by Yang Zhu, its aura almost instantly soaring to the extreme.

Ten-thousand-zhang divine light illuminated the nine heavens, an unmatched killing intent burst forth, even the firmament was torn open into a huge abyss, as if it might collapse at any moment.

The translucent blade radiated holy light, dripping down misty chaotic fog; the killing intent bursting forth made one's primordial spirit feel as if it would explode.

Even that group of ancestor kings felt a shudder of fear; the snow‑white, translucent heavenly blade actually bore the laws of a Great Emperor, terrifying beyond compare.

«Run, Heavenly Prince! »

Someone shouted loudly; hearing it, the Heavenly Prince did not hesitate, transforming into a streak of five‑colored divine light and fleeing toward the horizon.

If it were anyone else, he would be confident of killing them, but now the opponent is the Wushi Emperor's son, and his Dao heart wavered. The five‑colored divine light surged from within the Heavenly Prince like an erupting sea, endless, with intricate runes flashing, dazzling and blinding.

«Cry! »

A phoenix's cry shook the heavens; endless divine radiance condensed into a five‑colored divine phoenix, brilliant and blazing, flowing with holy light.

The divine phoenix enveloped the Heavenly Prince, its speed increasing again, and in an instant it streaked beyond a thousand li.

«Is this a blood‑line anomaly? »

As the words fell, purple‑gold blood energy boiled, and an aura capable of making heaven and earth tremble seeped out.

Behind Yang Zhu, a vast ocean of chaotic laws appeared, accompanied by a rush of «hualala» sounds.

The waves, formed from condensed Great Dao runes, surged and rolled; even the spray were fragments of the Great Dao, crystal clear, and the surrounding void was tinged with a divine glow.

These were already stunning enough, but if one looked further ahead, they would surely be shocked speechless.

At the edge of the law‑sea stood a figure with his back to all beings, his posture divine and unmatched throughout ages, like the god of this world, bearing an aura of «I am invincible! » «Dang dang dang…»

Above his head hung a great chaotic bell, billions of chaotic mists surging, nearly submerging him; the bell tolled slowly, its sound carrying across ten thousand li of mountains and rivers! «The emperor‑son's apparition… actually bears the likeness of the Wushi Great Emperor! »

An imperial might swept down, striking every heart; many were stunned, eyes wide, frozen in place.

«The Saint Body Dao‑womb is unique through the ages; to transform oneself into an apparition is truly shocking. »

The white‑clad god king's pupils flashed with strange color; he too was astonished by the sight, unable to stay calm.

Regarding the Wushi Great Emperor, he harbored a special feeling; years ago he entered the Purple Mountain, confronting various ancient holy spirits, and in the end was forced into a stone wall.

Imprisoned for four thousand years!

During that time he nearly perished, but at each critical moment someone secretly aided him, allowing him to prolong his life.

Moreover, in that process that person constantly honed himself, enabling him to break through so swiftly.

Later he learned that person's name was Gu Tianshu, a subordinate of the Wushi Great Emperor, tasked with guarding the Purple Mountain for the emperor.

The sea of laws surged, immeasurable fragments of the Great Dao coalescing onto the heavenly blade, its aura growing ever more terrifying, exuding a sharp killing intent.

«Boom! »

Yang Zhu, backed by the apparition, raised the heavenly blade; at that instant myriad Dao fell silent, and as his arm came down, a ten‑thousand‑zhang divine light slashed down!

«Not good…»

The Heavenly Prince had already fled tens of thousands of li, yet a single glance back filled him with such terrifying aura that his hairs stood on end.

The proud sons of the Eastern Wasteland, aside from being inferior in cultivation and talent, also feared his identity and dared not strike a killing blow.

But the Wushi Emperor's son is different; he dares to strike with the intent to kill himself!

Among them, the ancient holy spirits' faces darkened; if anyone else attacked they would surely intervene, but since it is the Wushi Emperor's son, they do not know what to do.

One side is divine bloodline, the other a supreme existence that must lurk even in life‑forbidden zones; neither is something they can provoke.

All ancient beings, including the ancestor kings, for a moment none dared to resist, choosing cold indifference.

«Divine Phoenix Prelude, begin! »

The Heavenly Prince spat out a mouthful of essence blood, which turned into a vast ocean that submerged what lay behind him.

The five‑colored divine light surged, shining brightly, transforming into endless heavenly tones that echoed, madly rushing toward the rear to resist Yang Zhu's attack.

«Hum! »

With a claw of his palm, a hidden strange small world within his body appeared; he flung it out, and it swiftly became a confined space, firmly sealing this area.

This was left to him by the Immortal Heavenly Emperor, capable of blocking any attack below a saint! The Heavenly Prince did not cease, employing every life‑saving Shen Gong at his disposal.

«Is it useful? »

Yang Zhu sneered, activating the Lin and Jie secrets simultaneously; in the blink of an eye he entered Shen Jin Yu, and his power surged tenfold! Now his aura could rival a half‑saint, terrifying and boundless; a casual move shook and shattered this heaven and earth! In an instant, the heavenly blade and my attack became even more horrifying, terrifying and boundless, capable of destroying everything in the world! As the Front Word Secret revolved, Yang Zhu's brow flashed and a divine light shot out, forming a heavenly Dao divine sword that pierced the void and severed that small world.

Even the runes evolved from the Divine Phoenix Prelude could not withstand it, being obliterated into dust.

«Hiss…»

When the heavenly blade was still tens of li away, its terrifying might already pressed down; even as strong as the Heavenly Prince, his body split open with bloody streaks, dyeing his five‑colored treasure robes red.

All life‑saving techniques and treasures were unleashed, yet the moment they touched the heavenly blade they were worn away, unable to resist even an instant.

«Heavenly Prince, retreat—I'll help you! »

Finally, another half‑saint acted—a descendant of the Immortal Heavenly Emperor's retinue; even in death he would protect and comfort the Heavenly Prince.

«Pfft! »

Yet he still underestimated Yang Zhu's full‑force blow; blocking before the heavenly blade's might, he was instantly cleaved, body and spirit destroyed!

A half‑saint reduced to ashes in a moment—this result shocked the world!

«Bang…»

The chaotic heavenly blade swept across, destroying everything with ease; even the traces of the Dao were worn away, and finally the Heavenly Prince, in his unwilling gaze, was cut into a mist of blood.

Even his primordial spirit could not escape, being crushed into a gorgeous rain of light that drifted away on the wind…

«Is this what divine bloodline is? »

The black robe rustled, Yang Zhu's eyes like cold lightning, his gaze holding chaotic mist, as if the universe were just opening, enacting a world.

He seemed the master of this heaven and earth, looking down upon where the Heavenly Prince fell; the entire arena fell silent, all stunned by the sight.

The Wushi Emperor's son struck, and with one blow subdued and killed the Heavenly Prince who claimed to be of divine bloodline; from this day forth the five realms will surely tremble! «Hum hum…»

The heavenly blade seemed elated, emitting a faint hum as it circled Yang Zhu, sinking and floating, having acquired something akin to human emotion.

«Damn, what bullshit divine bloodline, just self‑praise; the Wushi Great Emperor proved the Dao and attained the throne in five hundred years—look across all emperors and ancient sovereigns through the ages, who has such ability? Even this Immortal Divine Phoenix bloodline dares to compare with the Saint Body Dao‑womb? »

The Black Emperor showed no mercy, openly condemning the Immortal Divine Phoenix bloodline; he felt no goodwill toward the Immortal Heavenly Emperor or the ancient clans.

"What…… five hundred years to prove the Dao?!"

"Indeed, he's a monster among monsters; five hundred years…… I'm afraid many people can't even reach the level of a great expert!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall was stunned; everyone knows that the Beginningless Great Emperor is invincible under heaven and earth, yet they never knew that he, relying solely on five hundred years, had already proven the Dao and become emperor.

"You dare say that humanity has no qualification to stand equal with you?"

Yang Zhu step by step walked toward the Tongtian Dao Platform, his eyes calm, his divine power within vast like the sea, emitting an awe-inspiring majesty that could make one glance sideways, heart trembling with fear.

The Black Emperor then raised his huge disclosure, looking very smug, following behind the imperial son.

"Ha, forefather king? I was born a sage, and in those dust-sealed days I reached the sage realm nine more times, only to be beheaded nine times in a row."

Upon Yang Zhu's words, people's pupils shrank, their hearts extremely shocked, they even held their breath, unable to believe! Born a sage, and again beheaded nine times in a row, it's simply unheard of, never before in ancient or modern times, not even enough to be described as shocking! (It broke again, this time…… everyone please scold lightly……)(End of chapter)
