Chapter 117

their auras stirring the firmament!

Even the Emperor-level artifact, the Mountain and River Seal, was stained with this color.

"Kill!"

He roared in a low voice and charged forward!

Rumble!

The next instant,

the two sides engaged in battle.

Above the golden light,

dragon and phoenix danced, intertwining with each other, seemingly wanting to melt into one, their movements somewhat strange.

This was a dual-cultivation movement from the 108 Styles,

only it was being used in the battle formation at this moment,

and its power could be called peerless!

The light above the dragon and phoenix was incomparably dazzling.

Under Chu Long's control,

the golden dragon's huge claws waved, instantly annihilating the ultimate fist imprint Martial Emperor Batian had swung!

A heaven-shaking and earth-shattering explosion rang out,

and the entire Tianluo Domain seemed to be shaking.

Afterward, one claw descended,

and Martial Emperor Batian's body instantly exploded under the golden dragon's attack,

drops of blood as brilliant as gemstones spilling from the starry sky toward the earth,

as if heaven and earth were weeping blood!

At the same time,

the golden phoenix let out a bright phoenix cry,

its huge wings vibrating,

and billions of strands of golden light exploded out!

The Emperor-level artifact, the Mountain and River Seal, completely turned into nothingness under the golden light.

"Ah! Who on earth are you?"

Martial Emperor Taixuan's fist was peerless,

blowing up stars,

destroying the void,

and stars bloomed beside him as his pupils manifested,

deriving peerless Dao techniques,

but in the end, he could only watch helplessly as his arm dissipated bit by bit under the golden light!

He knew he had reached the end of his rope,

so he shouted loudly.

How he hoped to hear the other party say he came from the Qian Domain Chu family,

because only in this way

would he feel that he didn't die so unworthily!

After all, the Chu family had powerful existences capable of defeating the Changsheng-realm Holy Envoy,

so it would not be an exaggeration to cultivate some supreme genius!

"Who am I?"

"I am just a martial artist who has just broken through to Martial Emperor!"

"I came out of seclusion some time ago and heard that the Hell Gate had begun to lose control over the mortal world, so I thought I'd break through to Martial Emperor to see the specific situation!"

"I didn't expect that all along, your Hell Gate was just a facade!"

"Unable to even take down someone like me, an early-stage Martial Emperor, it seems your Hell Gate is truly no good!"

Chu Long said with disdain,

his voice very loud,

spreading throughout the cosmic starry sky,

as if he were deliberately telling certain people some things!

"You..."

Martial Emperor Taixuan widened his eyes,

and turned into ashes in his unwillingness!

He had ultimately failed to wait for the answer he wanted!

The golden light dissipated,

revealing the figures of Chu Long, Shen Biyao, and the others.

At this moment,

golden dragons coiled around Chu Long’s body,

while golden phoenixes circled the women,

their majestic divine might too intense to look upon directly!

"From now on, there will be more and more people in the mortal realm breaking through to the Martial Emperor realm; the Hell Gate's control should gradually diminish, right?"

Shen Biyao said with a smile.

Previously, she had heard them say they were under orders from their Sect Master to kill anyone who broke through to the Emperor level without the Hell Gate's approval!

Coupled with the recent disturbances the Chu family had caused in the mortal realm, it was not hard to guess that these people were specifically tasked with hunting down those who had secretly broken through to the Martial Emperor realm,

which was why she had told Chu Long

not to reveal his identity as a member of the Chu family just yet.

After all, the Chu family had the protection of the Beast God,

and if others knew they were from the Chu family,

they might still hesitate and not dare to break through.

But now,

that is truly hard to say!

As long as someone takes the lead,

others will begin to break this iron rule one after another!

In this way,

perhaps it will also share some of the pressure for the Chu family!

"You really are a clever little cutie. Tonight, you can choose any position for our dual cultivation; I will obey you unconditionally!"

Chu Long looked at Shen Biyao and said with a smile.

"Hmph, you had better take good care of Sister Yu first!"

"You only just won her over a few days ago, so you mustn't neglect her, or we won't let you off!"

Shen Biyao gave a light huff.

Wen Ruyu had not participated in the battle just now;

she had only just begun dual cultivation,

and did not yet understand anything about battle formations,

so when they took action,

Chu Long had used his methods to protect her.

"You all know how formidable my combat power is; Little Yu alone won't be able to hold out for long. How about we have a grand ensemble tonight?"

"Get lost!"

The women scolded in unison.

Chu Long felt helpless.

It seems that goal is still somewhat difficult to achieve!

He waved his palm,

and the Emperor-tier weapon "Chaos Starry Sky Lotus" that had fallen to the ground landed in his hand.

"An Emperor-tier weapon carrying the power of chaos; its might is truly formidable!"

Although he had pierced through its defense earlier,

this Emperor-tier weapon was not damaged!

"Does anyone here need it?"

Chu Long asked.

"No, your weapon is a long sword, so it is best for us to use long swords as well to match!"

Jiaoyue Ying and the others shook their heads.

Although they did not need to be proficient in any sword techniques while in the battle formation,

keeping their weapons consistent could unleash greater power.

However, because the family had a limited number of Sacred-tier weapons,

only a few of them possessed Sacred-tier long swords!

"Then hand it over to the family!"

"It's a pity about that flying wheel and the seal that possessed the power of the five elements; otherwise, we would have gained three Emperor-tier weapons this time!"

Chu Long sighed with regret,

though deep down he felt a sense of gratification.

In the past, they were always consuming the family's reserves, but now they finally had the ability to give back to the family!

In Nine Sacred City,

when everyone saw Chu Long and the others stepping down,

their breathing stopped,

even though the aura on their bodies was restrained and they did not emit the pressure of Emperor-level powerhouses!

Chu Long came before Wen Buqi again,

and said with a calm expression: "You just said you wanted the Great Luo Sacred Land to pay a visit to the forces behind me?"

"I think there's no need to visit the forces behind me. I, this Emperor, will go and visit your Great Luo Sacred Land right now! I would like to see just how powerful this background you are so proud of really is!"

"I wonder how many people will be left in your Sacred Land after I land this one slap!"

As soon as these words were spoken,

the legs of the surrounding Martial Saint ancestors of the Great Luo Sacred Land went weak,

and they almost collapsed on the spot!

"Senior, this junior was wrong. All the faults are mine, and it has nothing to do with the Great Luo Sacred Land!"

"No matter how you wish to punish me, I accept it, but please, Senior, show mercy and spare the Great Luo Sacred Land!"

Wen Buqi crawled on the ground, weeping and pleading.

As for Fu Ming,

his face was already deathly pale at this moment;

his previous hopes had been completely shattered along with the fall of the three Hell Gate Martial Emperors!

All that remained was the foul-smelling urine flowing between his legs, soaking the street floor!

"I'll give you one chance; do it yourselves!"

Chu Long said coldly.

As for forgiveness...

Heh,

they had set their sights on his own women, and he was supposed to forgive them?

Hearing this result,

Wen Buqi was stunned,

and let out a few foolish laughs.

He never expected that he, a dignified Martial Saint who had lived for tens of thousands of years, would fall today because of the person he was protecting.

This left him filled with unwillingness!

"No, no, no, I don't want to die!"

"I don't want to die!"

"I still have a bright future ahead of me; I still want to achieve the Martial Saint realm and break through to Martial Emperor to rule the world!"

Fu Ming struggled, wanting to get up and run away.

As a result,

Wen Buqi slapped him on the crown of his head, and his soul scattered on the spot.

"Remember to stay away from women in your next life!"

After saying this,

he slapped his own head and ended his life right there!

"Quite decisive, aren't you?"

Chu Long gave a soft laugh,

and led his group of wives and concubines toward the restaurant.

The surrounding Martial Saint ancestors of the Great Luo Sacred Land who were hiding in the crowd breathed a long sigh of relief.

Fortunately, this Martial Emperor was not a murderous person;

otherwise, their Great Luo Sacred Land would have suffered a great disaster today because of a Sacred Son!

But the next moment, they thought of another problem:

Could it be that the Hell Gate really couldn't suppress the mortal realm anymore?

Or were their Martial Emperors really as vulnerable as that Martial Emperor had said?

"I think it might be true. A Martial Emperor at the early stage, leading a group of Martial Saints, actually killed three Hell Gate Martial Emperors, including two at the Great Perfection of the Martial Emperor realm. Doesn't this prove that the Hell Gate Martial Emperors are just paper tigers?"

Someone whispered.

Logically speaking,

there is a world of difference between a Martial Saint and a Martial Emperor.

Unless some peerless monsters can fight across realms,

no matter how many Martial Saints there are, they cannot match a Martial Emperor, let alone one at the Great Perfection!

And it's not like those women are all peerless monsters, right?

Even taking a step back,

even if they were so-called peerless monsters,

it is impossible to kill a Martial Emperor at Great Perfection while only at the Martial Saint cultivation level!

The gap in realms is just too vast!

Moreover,

those Martial Saints were uneven in strength,

with some at the Great Perfection of the Martial Saint realm,

and others at the early stage.

How could such combat power kill a Martial Emperor?

At this moment,

all the Martial Saints in Nine Sacred City fell silent.

If this was really the case,

then perhaps they could try it too.

"Immediately order people to spread everything that happened here quickly, especially the fact that two Hell Gate Martial Emperors at Great Perfection were killed by a Martial Emperor at the early stage!"

A shrewd Martial Saint said in a deep voice.

Only by letting more people know,

and letting more people break through to the Martial Emperor realm,

could they better share the risks for themselves.
