Chapter 750: Yun Jing, are you not going to scram?

"Xiao Mu, is there enough time to open the North River Supreme Hall?" Li Yuan was communicating with Xiao Mu through their souls.

Facing the ambush by the Abyss God Emperor, Li Yuan was not overly fearful; firstly, his strength had surged, giving him sufficient confidence to face the situation.

Secondly, he had enough trump cards at his disposal.

"There isn't enough time. I need sufficient time to open the Supreme Hall's gates using the Dao Seal secret technique... and the gates to the Hong Ying Supreme Hall have already closed," Xiao Mu replied hurriedly via telepathy. "Don't hesitate any longer; summon Yun Yu and the other eight."

"Although your physical body is comparable to an Imperial Weapon and your combat power has surged, you are, after all, only barely reaching the peak of the Emperor Realm... If you truly engage in close-quarters combat with a Sovereign, you could be killed in a few moves."

That Li Yuan could withstand a single domain-based ambush from a Sovereign had already left Xiao Mu astonished, but with Li Yuan's current strength, he was not yet capable of close-quarters combat against the Abyss God Emperor.

That would be underestimating a Sovereign-level powerhouse too much.

Unless it were someone like the Chaos God Emperor, who was already infinitely close to being a Sovereign... otherwise, a normal peak Emperor Realm expert would choose to flee frantically when facing a Sovereign.

"It seems I have no other choice." Li Yuan frowned slightly.

The nine Great Imperial Guards were each at the peak of the Emperor Realm; working together, they could completely entangle a Sovereign-level powerhouse... this was a major trump card.

A trump card should only be kept hidden; only when the enemy is unaware can it deliver a fatal blow at the critical moment.

Li Yuan had not expected to be forced to use the nine Great Imperial Guards so soon.

Of course, if it weren't for Li Yuan opening the Heart-Weapon Dao, which allowed for more perfect concealment of the aura of the nine Great Imperial Guards hiding within his Cave Heaven world... under normal circumstances, without a top-tier Imperial Weapon like the Ancient Universe Realm, it would be impossible to hide the aura of the nine Great Imperial Guards in front of a Sovereign.

It is very difficult for an Emperor Realm puppet following closely by one's side to escape the notice of other super-powerhouses, yet Li Yuan was someone who could achieve this on his own.

"It's a pity I don't have the Ancient Universe Realm," Li Yuan thought to himself. "Otherwise, by using the Ancient Universe Realm to flee, I would have had a complete chance of escaping from the Abyss God Emperor's hands."

Without the Ancient Universe Realm, Li Yuan's own escape capability was much weaker.

"Yun Yu, Yun Xin, prepare to strike." Li Yuan transmitted directly, while simultaneously staring fixedly at the Abyss God Emperor, preparing to erupt and defend himself.

It also takes a split second for the Imperial Guards to emerge from the Cave Heaven world.

Of course, Li Yuan did not believe the Abyss God Emperor could completely kill him in one move... just as a black battle blade had already appeared in the Abyss God Emperor's palm.

Just as a streak of dark blade light appeared.

Suddenly.

"Boom..."

The void trembled; the vast space-time originally controlled by the Abyss God Emperor was instantly torn apart, and immediately following this, a massive warship appeared out of thin air.

The warship spanned the heavens and earth, its aura ancient and vast.

"Hum~" A figure clad in crimson armor flew straight out of the warship. His body was towering, over ten million kilometers tall, not at all inferior to Li Yuan, his divine eyes cold and stern.

Without any aura of the Eternal Dao, he nevertheless radiated an incredible power, as if he were the incarnation of the entire heavens and earth, giving one a sense of invincibility.

"Yun Jing, leave immediately." The crimson-armored figure's voice was cold, echoing through the endless void.

"A Divine Guard of the Immortal Temple, do you dare to block me just because of who you are?" A trace of coldness flashed in the Abyss God Emperor's eyes, and the battle blade in his hand did not slow down in the slightest.

He slashed straight toward Li Yuan.

The power of this blade far exceeded his previous palm strike! That destructive aura made even Li Yuan feel a sense of dread.

Others might not dare to offend the Immortal Temple, but that did not include the Abyss God Emperor; after all, he was a powerhouse of the Abyss lineage and had not established an Abyss Demon Lair within the Immortal Heaven and Earth.

Having no desires, he naturally had no requests, and naturally had no fear.

"Whoosh!"

Seeing this, the crimson-armored figure did not speak; he simply raised his hand and slashed toward the Abyss God Emperor. It was likewise a giant palm strike cutting horizontally, its power surging violently, as if it would shatter the ancient blue sky.

"Hmm?"

"Something is wrong!" The Abyss God Emperor's heart shook violently; he felt that something was amiss. This palm strike arrived later but reached first, shattering the void layer by layer, directly blocking his battle blade.

And then!

Hard-carrying his full-force strike, it reversed all things and slashed back at him... This palm strike contained no aura of the Eternal Dao, yet its power was strong to the extreme; all Dao and Laws seemed to cease to exist under this palm.

"Bang!"

A terrifying strike, the giant palm shattered the heavens and earth. The earth-shattering collision caused countless palaces on the Supreme Star City continent to collapse, and even caused the continent itself to develop terrifying, visible cracks.

And the most miserable one was the Abyss God Emperor.

This palm strike came too fast; he took the blow head-on. His towering body could not help but fly backward. The blood mist that had originally shrouded his entire body was completely shaken away, and even his black robes developed numerous fine cracks, while the cracks on his divine body were shocking to behold.

Such injuries left him in disbelief.

His black robes were, after all, a high-grade Imperial Weapon he had refined with all his heart's blood. Although not a top-tier Imperial Weapon, its material defense was undoubtedly strong.

How could it have cracked?

The power of this palm strike far exceeded his own.

"You are not an ordinary Divine Guard of the Immortal Temple..." The Abyss God Emperor had just started to speak, but he had not yet had time to say anything else.

"Yun Jing, are you not going to scram?" The crimson-armored Divine Guard's expression was cold. He raised his hand again and slashed down with a palm, as if he intended to kill the Abyss God Emperor completely.

At this moment!

The crimson-armored Divine Guard's aura had grown to an incredible level, and strands of dazzling crimson light illuminated the entire galaxy.

This aura was simply incredibly tyrannical, far exceeding that of a normal Sovereign, making even Li Yuan hold his breath.

"Not good!"
