Chapter 265 - 156: Myriad Immortals Bow in Homage to the Celestial Destiny Emperor

But facing this endless Sword Shadow, it was like stabbing at cotton—he couldn’t exert any force at all.

Moreover, a peculiar power within it was grinding away at his killing weapon, like a dull blade scraping against bone!

In an instant.

He felt as if he were being choked by the hand of heaven itself, completely unable to break free.

At the same time.

It was as if countless invisible sharp swords were severing his connection to the future, his True Form being worn away bit by bit!

A fatal sense of crisis suddenly washed over him.

"No! I clearly blocked the Immortal Emperor’s Law just now! My Law... condense! Condense for me!"

Ye Bufan roared as his vital energy and blood burned furiously, suffused with a destructive killing intent.

However.

No matter how hard he struggled, he could not break free from the imprisoning net of swords.

His Immortal Technique seemed to be completely crushed!

Just as he was about to be annihilated in both body and soul...

BUZZ!

Stars, filled with chaos, pierced through the Void and suddenly lit up the surroundings.

"My disciple has offended you, fellow Daoist. I will discipline him myself. I ask that you show mercy and spare his life!"

As the Stars lit up.

Ye Bufan felt the net of swords imprisoning him suddenly loosen.

Overjoyed, the boundless Blood Sea within him surged once more:

"Sect Leader, save me!"

Wang Xiao stared at the surrounding Stars, his brow tightening.

"You think you can make me release him with just a few words? You don’t have that kind of clout!"

CLANG!

The Celestial Destiny Sword swept out. Endless Sword Shadows raged in all directions, blasting toward the surrounding Stars.

In an instant.

The Stars shattered like fireworks.

The Law surrounding Ye Bufan was finally crushed. He was swept away by the sword light, his line of Destiny severed, and his body and soul annihilated!

The shattered Stars slowly coalesced into a face in the Void, its eyes flashing with a red glow.

"Fine. You are truly worthy of the name Celestial Destiny Emperor. I, Xu Mo, will remember what happened today. We will settle this on the Invincible Road!"

WHOOSH—

The shattered Stars melted into the Void, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

Wang Xiao’s eyes narrowed slightly.

This Xu Mo was the Sect Leader of the Chaotic Star Sect, a Holy Land in the North Sea Islands.

Judging from the Divine Techniques he had just displayed, this man’s mastery of the Great Dao was also exceptionally profound, no less than Mu Tiange’s.

’As expected, anyone who can establish a Holy Land has a few tricks up their sleeve.’

"It’s been forty years. You’ve grown even stronger, my Lord."

Shangguan Xiyue walked over, her beautiful eyes shimmering.

She had now achieved the rank of Earth Immortal and could be considered to stand at the apex of the Cultivation Immortality Realm.

Yet she only felt that the gap between herself and him was growing wider and wider!

"Ninth Brother, long time no see."

Liu Yuzhen looked at Wang Xiao with a complicated expression.

The Prince who was once cast into the Imperial Harem had now cultivated into a peerless expert who could casually slay someone with an Immortal Emperor’s Cultivation.

’How could she not feel emotional about it?!’

"Sixth Sister has also become an Earth Immortal. Congratulations," Wang Xiao said.

Liu Yuzhen gave a bitter smile.

In the Vast Immortal Sect, she was considered an ancestor-level figure, revered by tens of thousands.

But in front of her own Ninth Brother, she couldn’t muster the slightest bit of pride.

Just then.

The crowd of spectating Cultivators witnessed the scene in the Imperial City, and a storm raged in their hearts.

There was shock, horror, awe, and reverence—and more besides.

"Hiss... He killed Ye Bufan, who had merged three Techniques, with a single sword strike. That’s the Celestial Destiny Emperor for you!"

"He’s just too powerful! Even the Sect Leader of the Chaotic Star Sect made a move and failed to stop the Celestial Destiny Emperor. With this kind of strength, isn’t he the number one in the world right now?!"

"What Realm is the Celestial Destiny Emperor in now? Could he have already surpassed the Immortal Emperor Realm?!"

"It’s incomprehensible! I’m afraid only Mu Tiange, the Master of the Taiyi Holy Land, can contend with the Celestial Destiny Emperor!"

"The Celestial Gate is about to open. Will the Celestial Destiny Emperor be able to walk to the end of the Invincible Road this time?!"

One voice after another rose up.

「Not long after.」

A Cultivator from the crowd came forward, bowing low from a distance.

"Junior Ling Tianjue pays his respects to the Celestial Destiny Emperor. Congratulations on your triumphant return."

His age was likely much greater than Wang Xiao’s.

However, in the Cultivation Immortality Realm, titles were always based on strength; age was completely irrelevant.

The minds of the Cultivators, both in the sky and on the ground, began to race.

They certainly weren’t going to miss such a prime opportunity to make an impression.

One after another, Cultivators appeared and bowed low.

"Feng Yangqing of the Lingtian Sect pays his respects to the Celestial Destiny Emperor!"

"Zhang Zilong of the Feather Transformation Sect pays his respects to the Celestial Destiny Emperor!"

"Junior Yun Xiaoshu pays his respects to the Celestial Destiny Emperor!"

"..."

In an instant.

The sounds of worship echoed between heaven and earth, vast as a tidal wave, shaking the sky for a thousand li.

Among these Cultivators were those in the Spirit Embryo Realm, the True Form Realm, and even Immortal Kings and Earth Immortals. At this moment, all of them were bowing in profound worship!

This was a heartfelt reverence for the strong.

Shangguan Xiyue was moved and raised her head to look.

As far as the eye could see, ten thousand immortals were bowing their heads in unison, all worshipping the Celestial Destiny Emperor.

She couldn’t help but feel her heart surge with emotion.

’My Lord’s name... it will surely be praised for all eternity!’
