Chapter 178

"Fuyao, let's go, go to Perishing Prefecture!" (with quotes)

But we need to keep the quotes? The source includes Chinese quotation marks 「」. Should we keep them? The instruction: translate faithfully, preserve punctuation? It didn't say to keep the Chinese quotes; we should translate the meaning, not keep the Chinese punctuation. Usually we replace with English quotes or none. Since they didn't specify, we can omit the Chinese quotes and just translate the content. We'll output without the Chinese quotes.

Thus line1: Fuyao, let's go, go to Perishing Prefecture!

But we need to keep the exclamation mark. So: Fuyao, let's go, go to Perishing Prefecture!

Line11: …… -> …… (ellipsis). We need to keep the ellipsis as is? The source has three dots. We'll output "……". Probably keep same.

: "Early Eight-star Great Emperor!" OK.

: "Lu Xuan felt his whole body filled with heaven-penetrating power, a terrifying aura poured out in all directions, his white robe billowed, his three thousand black hairs fluttered, a faint divine radiance enveloped his form, making him look like a deity descending!" OK.

We need to keep the exclamation.

: "In the next instant." OK.

: "Lu Xuan activated the Supreme Great Emperor Dao Pattern, a wondrously mysterious aura spread outward, enveloping Lu Xuan, Ji Fuyao, and Chen Zhangsheng." OK.

: "Know that Gu Lang Great Emperor's condition is that only Ji Fuyao alone may descend, otherwise the Ye Family will be exterminated!" OK.

: "In the dark, many Emperor Realm strongers already probed the land of Perishing Prefecture with their divine sense." OK.

: "At that moment, beside the large teleportation array of Perishing Prefecture, endless brilliant Dao patterns flowed, shining like stars." OK.

: "Gu Lang Great Emperor has already ordered many great emperors to stand by here!" OK.

: "In the pavilion beside the teleportation array, Gu Lang Great Emperor held a cup of spiritual tea and savored it slowly." OK.

: "He knew that after capturing Ji Fuyao, a bloody storm would inevitably follow." OK.

: "And those great emperors of Perishing Prefecture he can sacrifice!" OK.

: "As long as he can escape back to the headquarters of the Heavenly Net Palace, it will be a great merit!" OK.

: "Beside him, the Black-clad Great Emperor asked, 'Grand Elder, if Ji Fuyao does not come, what then?'" OK.

: "Gu Lang Great Emperor stroked his beard and smiled, confidently saying, 'Ji Fuyao will surely come! Given my understanding of her, this woman is strong-willed; in the battle three thousand years ago when the Fuyao Dynasty fell, she could have left on her own, but she did not abandon her subordinates, showing her nature! Rivers and mountains may change, but nature is hard to alter! With her stubborn character, she will come.'" OK.

: "The Black-clad Great Emperor asked, 'If Ji Fuyao comes with the White-robed Great Emperor, what then? Do we really have to kill those Ye Family people?'" OK.

: "Gu Lang Great Emperor shook his head, 'What if the White-robed Great Emperor comes? The Ye Family people not dying is what deters them! If the Ye Family people die, we will also die! This is a delicate balance. But the White-robed Great Emperor dares not gamble; he also fears mutual destruction with us!'" OK.

: "The Black-clad Great Emperor couldn't help but admire, 'Grand Elder, truly impressive!'" OK.

: "Just then." OK.

: '"Crack!"' OK.

: '"Boom!"' OK.

: "A terrifying Eight-star Great Emperor aura spread throughout Perishing Prefecture, like mountains overturning seas, an indescribable pressure filling heaven and earth." OK.

: "The Void shattered!" OK.

: "Space twisted!" OK.

: "In an instant, everyone in Perishing Prefecture looked in shock at the Void rift; the Emperor Realm strongers secretly observing the nearby prefectures were all greatly astonished." OK.

: "This aura is simply tremendous terror!" OK.

: "Amid countless gazes, Lu Xuan, in a white robe, slowly walked out of the Void rift with Ji Fuyao, his black hairs fluttering, his body enveloped by endless divine radiance, his face indistinct, mysterious and obscure Dao Resonance swirling around him, appearing divine and heaven-penetrating, like an Immortal Sovereign descending into the world!" OK.

: "Ji Fuyao's gaze extended, soon seeing the Ye Clan people imprisoned atop an Imperial Weapon, hundreds of miles of Ye Clan land seized, floating above the Void." OK.

: "She stood beside Lu Xuan and softly said, 'Master, the Ye Clan people are over there!'" OK.

: "Lu Xuan nodded lightly." OK.

: "Ji Fuyao felt that Lu Xuan at this moment was extremely terrifying." OK.

That is an intangible anger, not angry yet imposing, killing intent soaring to the heavens!

On Lu Xuan's other side was the hidden Chen Zhangsheng; the aura emanating from Lu Xuan made him feel palpitations.

That is a power he cannot see through; although only Eight-star Emperor Realm, it faintly transcends the shackles of the Nine-star Emperor Realm!

At this moment, the strongers of the various prefectures, upon seeing Lu Xuan appear, all exclaimed in surprise.

"White-robed Great Emperor!"

"White Emperor has descended!"

Everyone was greatly shocked, their hearts stirred by towering waves!

Who would have thought the White-robed Great Emperor would descend so quickly?!

After all, it's only been a moment since Gu Lang Great Emperor projected that threat image!

Now we need to ensure we used glossary names exactly: Ji Fuyao, Lu Xuan, Chen Zhangsheng, Above the Void, Dao Resonance. We used "Above the Void" in line48? Actually we used "above the Void". In line48 we wrote "floating above the Void". That matches glossary "Above the Void". Good.

We used "Dao Resonance" in line47: "mysterious and obscure Dao Resonance swirling around him". Good.

Now we need to output each line as 【N】 translation on a single line.

Invincible the Moment He Acts!

Then

Ji Fuyao's eyes flickered as she asked, "Master, what if those foreign and demon emperors descend upon the Black Flame Mountain Range?"

Lu Xuan said, "No problem, I still have arrangements."

After all, Chen Zhangsheng's puppet marionettes remain here.

If those foreign and demon emperors descend, they will surely not return!

Lu Xuan directly crushed that eight-star emperor experience card.

"Boom!"

Vast and boundless spiritual energy surged directly into Lu Xuan's body, and his cultivation began to skyrocket.

Four-star emperor!

Five-star emperor!

……

Early eight-star emperor!

Lu Xuan felt his entire body brimming with heaven-reaching power; a terrifying aura poured out in all directions, his white robes billowed, his three thousand strands of black hair fluttered, and a faint divine radiance enveloped his form, making him appear as if a deity had descended!

The next instant.

Lu Xuan activated the supreme emperor Dao pattern, and an incredibly profound aura spread outward, enveloping Lu Xuan, Ji Fuyao, and Chen Zhangsheng.

The three turned into a wisp of clear wind and vanished directly into the Black Flame Mountain Range.

Seeing this, Wang Man and the others said, "It seems the Black Flame Mountain Range still has a trump card from Peak Master Lu; we need not worry!"

Numerous imperial dragon guards all nodded.

In the shadows, Chen Zhangsheng's puppet clone shook its head slightly, "Hope those foreign and demon emperors do not descend upon the Black Flame Mountain Range, lest we provoke war."

……

Youzhou.

After the ancient emperor Gu Lang suppressed the Ye clan and projected their spiritual power image, it caused a sensation.

The powerful ones from the surrounding provinces of Youzhou were all utterly shocked.

Using the Ye family of Qingcheng as leverage to command Ji Fuyao!

Many powerful ones speculated whether Ji Fuyao would dare come to Youzhou.

Know that Gu Lang Emperor's condition is that only Ji Fuyao alone may descend; otherwise, the Ye clan will be exterminated!

In the dark, many emperor-realm experts have already extended their divine senses to probe the land of Youzhou.

At that moment, beside the grand teleportation formation in Youzhou, endless brilliant Dao patterns flowed, shining like stars.

Emperor Gu Lang has already ordered many emperors to stand by here!

In the pavilion beside the teleportation formation, Emperor Gu Lang held a cup of spiritual tea and savored it slowly.

He knew that after capturing Ji Fuyao, a bloody storm would inevitably follow.

And he could sacrifice these emperors of Youzhou!

As long as he can escape back to the headquarters of the Tianluo Palace, it will be a great achievement!

Beside him, the black-clad emperor asked, "Grand Elder, what if Ji Fuyao does not come?"

Emperor Gu Lang stroked his beard and smiled, full of confidence: "Ji Fuyao will surely come! Knowing her as I do, she is steadfast; in the war three thousand years ago when the Fuyao Dynasty fell, she could have left on her own, yet she did not abandon her subordinates, showing her nature! Rivers and mountains may change, but one's disposition is hard to alter! With her stubborn character, she will come."

The black-clad emperor asked, "What if Ji Fuyao descends with the white-robed emperor? Do we really have to kill those Ye clan people?"

Emperor Gu Lang shook his head: "What if the white-robed emperor comes? It is the Ye clan's survival that deters! If the Ye clan perishes, we too will die! This is a subtle balance. But the white-robed emperor dares not gamble; he also fears mutual destruction with us!"

The black-clad emperor couldn't help but admire, "Grand Elder, truly impressive!"

Just then.

"Crack!"

"Boom!"

An incredibly terrifying eight-star emperor aura spread throughout Youzhou, like mountains and seas overturning, an indescribable pressure filling heaven and earth.

The void shattered!

Space twisted!

In an instant, everyone in Youzhou stared in utter shock at the void rift, and the emperor-realm experts secretly observing from nearby provinces were all utterly astonished.

This aura is simply tremendous terror!

Amid countless gazes, Lu Xuan, clad in a white robe, slowly stepped out of the void rift with Ji Fuyao, his black hair fluttering, his body enveloped in endless divine radiance, his face indistinct, his surroundings suffused with mysterious and profound Dao Resonance, appearing heavenly and sublime, like an immortal descending to the world!

Ji Fuyao's gaze swept out, and she soon saw the Ye clan people imprisoned upon an imperial weapon, with hundreds of miles of Ye clan territory seized, floating above the void.

She stood beside Lu Xuan and whispered, "Master, the Ye clan people are over there!"

Lu Xuan nodded lightly.

Ji Fuyao felt that Lu Xuan at this moment was extremely terrifying.

It was an intangible fury, unangered yet imposing, with killing intent surging to the heavens!

On Lu Xuan's other side stood the hidden Chen Zhangsheng, and the aura emanating from Lu Xuan made him feel palpitations.

It was a power he could not fathom; although merely an eight-star emperor realm, it faintly transcended the shackles of the nine-star emperor realm!

At that moment, the powerful ones from the provinces saw Lu Xuan appear and all exclaimed in surprise.

"White-robed emperor!"

"The White Emperor has descended!"

Everyone was utterly shocked, their hearts stirred by towering waves!

Who could have imagined the white-robed emperor would descend so quickly?!

After all, only a moment had passed since Emperor Gu Lang projected his image as a threat!

Too fast!

Translation: "Too fast!" (or "It's too fast!"). Keep exclamation.

Moreover, isn't the White-robed Emperor a Seven Star Emperor?

Besides, isn't the White-robed Emperor a Seven Star Emperor?

When did he step into the Eight Star Emperor Realm!

When did he step into the Eight Star Emperor Realm!

At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and the many Emperors of the Yunzhou Heavenly Net Palace were equally shocked, standing frozen in place.

They never expected the White-robed Emperor to descend so abruptly!

Aren't you afraid they'll wipe out the Qingcheng Ye Clan outright!

Translation: "Aren't you afraid they'll directly exterminate the Qingcheng Ye clan?!"

At that moment.

Translation: "At this moment."

Lu Xuan hadn't even made a move yet, but his surroundings were filled with miraculous phenomena, like a deity walking the world, boundlessly terrifying; behind him, the heavens rumbled, rolling dark clouds gathered, the once clear sky turned utterly gloom, darkness shrouded Perishing Prefecture, oppressively heavy.

Let's craft: "Lu Xuan had not yet acted, yet his surrounding phenomena swirled like a deity manifest, terrifying and boundless; behind him, the heavens rumbled, rolling dark clouds rose continuously, the originally clear firmament turned extremely gloomy, darkness shrouded Yunzhou, oppressively heavy."

Throughout Perishing Prefecture, the wind wailed, and thunder began to stir in the depths of the void.

Translation: "All of Yunzhou, the wind wailed, and thunder began to tremble in the depths of the void."

Boom!

Translation: "Boom!"

Wave after wave of thunder shattered the darkness, with Lu Xuan standing firm amidst it, as if the sole sovereign!

Translation: "Wave after wave of thunder shattered the darkness, Lu Xuan stood firm within the thunder, as if the sole sovereign!"

Everyone felt their scalps tingle, their souls nearly fleeing!

Translation: "Everyone felt their scalps go numb, their souls nearly fleeing!"

In the next instant.

Translation: "In the next instant."

Lu Xuan directly struck out at this heaven and earth!

Translation: "Lu Xuan directly struck out at this heaven and earth!"

Killing intent fully revealed!

Translation: "Killer intent fully revealed!"

Towering power surged forth, like a storm gathering; the Heavenly Net Palace emperors on the ground felt like tiny boats on a vast sea, ready to capsize at any moment!

Translation: "Torrential power surged forth, like a storm gathering; the Emperors of the Heavenly Net Palace on the ground felt like boats on a vast sea, ready to capsize at any moment!"

Seeing this, the many Heavenly Net Palace emperors outside the transmission array cried out in fear.

Translation: "Seeing this, outside the teleportation array, the many Emperors of the Heavenly Net Palace cried out in terror."

"Grand Elder! Save me!"

Translation: "\"Grand Elder! Save me! \"" Keep quotes.

At that moment.

Translation: "At this moment."

Lu Xuan swept his sleeve, unleashing a terrifying, unparalleled power from within; the dreadful Eight-star Emperor aura permeated this heaven and earth, causing the Heavenly Net Palace emperors to lose their souls and sweat profusely.

Translation: "Lu Xuan swept his wide sleeve, and a terrifying, peerless power surged from within him; the dreadful Eight Star Emperor's might permeated this heaven and earth, those Heavenly Net Palace Emperors all had their souls nearly flee, drenched in sweat."

One star, one world!

Translation: "One star, one world!" Actually phrase maybe "One star, one world!" Keep.

This is the Eight-star Great Emperor!

Translation: "This is the Eight Star Emperor!"

Even without an invincible bearing, Lu Xuan still crushes all opposition!

Translation: "Even without an invincible bearing, Lu Xuan still crushes them!"

Lu Xuan directly slammed a palm down upon those Heavenly Net Palace emperors, like wind and clouds converging, like a vast wave pouring down; the lethal force of this palm far surpasses the realm of an Eight-star Great Emperor.

Translation: "Lu Xuan directly slammed a palm down upon those Heavenly Net Palace Emperors, as if winds and clouds converged, as if a vast surge poured forth; the killing power of this palm far surpassed the realm of an Eight Star Emperor."

Heaven and earth fell silent, reflecting the myriad heavens!

Translation: "Heaven and earth fell silent, illuminating all the heavens!"

"Stop!"

Translation: "\"Stop! \""

"If you dare to act, the Ye Clan people will all be buried here!"

Translation: "\"If you dare to act, the members of the Ye clan will all be buried here! \""

Suddenly, Gu Lang Great Emperor's voice echoed through the void.

Translation: "Suddenly, Gu Lang Emperor's voice echoed through the void."

A pavilion exploded apart, Gu Lang Great Emperor rose into the air in a gray robe, coldly gazing at Lu Xuan.

Translation: "A pavilion exploded apart, Gu Lang Emperor in a gray robe stepped into the air, coldly staring at Lu Xuan."

His expression was grim; he never expected the White-robed Emperor to descend so openly and aboveboard.

Translation: "His face was grim beyond measure; he never expected the White-robed Emperor to descend so openly."

Playing outside the rules!

Translation: "Playing outside the rules!"

Gu Lang Great Emperor held an ancient jade slip, his face icy, and said, "The Ye Clan people are now trapped in the extermination formation; if you continue to act, I need only crush the jade slip, and the Ye Clan people will all die!"

Translation: "Gu Lang Emperor held an ancient jade slip in his hand, his face icy cold, and said, 'The members of the Ye clan are now trapped in an extermination formation; if you continue to act, I need only crush the jade slip, and all the Ye clan will die!'"
