Chapter 225

"How is this possible?"

Ye Mo the Great Emperor's heart shook with shock; within the Tian Yuan Diagram surged intricate and obscure Great Emperor Dao patterns, condensing the might of heaven and earth, as they forcibly refined Ye Mo's flesh and soul.

"Hiss!"

The Great Emperor Dao patterns on Ye Mo's body actually began to vanish!

He wanted to kill Ji Fuyao, but he simply could not get close!

Everyone was utterly shocked.

Tian Yuan Old Ancestor is too strong!

Even among Nine-Star Emperor Realm experts, there are differences!

Ye Mo the Great Emperor is merely an early-stage Nine-Star Emperor Realm expert, and with his qi and blood declining and his lifespan short, he is no match for Tian Yuan Old Ancestor!

At this moment.

Ye Mo the Great Emperor wore a ferocious expression, frantically activating the damaged ancient lamp; with a boom, the lamp's light blazed forth like a blazing sun, radiant beyond compare, directly igniting the Tian Yuan Diagram.

For a moment.

The Tian Yuan Diagram and the damaged ancient lamp, two Nine-Star Emperor Armaments, surged with Great Emperor Dao patterns, and their two mighty forces began to clash!

Ye Mo the Great Emperor coughed up blood continuously; he was nearing his limit, sacrificing his last vitality for a final battle!

"Boom!"

The damaged ancient lamp grew much dimmer, and only then did Ye Mo the Great Emperor's flesh break free from the Tian Yuan Diagram.

But the damaged ancient lamp was also suppressed by the Tian Yuan Diagram in the void, and the two Emperor Armaments stood opposed.

For a moment, above the void erupted a torrent of divine radiance, like fiery trees and silver blossoms, dyeing the heavens.

Ye Mo the Great Emperor bled continuously, his vital energy withering like rotting wood burning itself; he gave a grim, bitter smile: "Fellow Daoist Tian Yuan, do you really intend to exterminate me?"

Tian Yuan Old Ancestor snorted coldly: "Dare to act against my Dao Sect's disciple—this is the price!"

Ye Mo the Great Emperor's robes were torn to shreds by the shock; he raised his head and let out a long howl: "Tian Yuan, you bully too far! I'll fight you to the end!"

His voice fell!

Ye Mo the Great Emperor directly sacrificed his Dao foundation, pushing it to the ultimate sublimation; power surged within him, like a dead planet suddenly igniting, his momentum pressing straight toward Tian Yuan Old Ancestor.

Everyone was greatly startled and turned pale!

Nine-Star Great Emperor, ultimate sublimation!

This is Ye Mo the Great Emperor abandoning any path of survival and fighting desperately!

Tian Yuan Old Ancestor flicked his sleeve, and a heaven-reaching mighty force, like a rolling wave, lightly pushed Ji Fuyao and the others a hundred thousand li away.

"Fall back!!"

A battle of this level, even its aftershocks splashing out, could instantly slay a high-star Great Emperor!

Everyone was dumbfounded.

The Nine-Star Emperor Realm is too terrifying; it represents the limit of power in this heaven and earth!

Ye Mo the Great Emperor, knowing he could not escape death, was forced to sacrifice his Dao fruit and wage an ultimate battle.

In everyone's hearts rose a tremendous wave.

Ye Mo the Great Emperor's combat power temporarily rose to the mid-stage of the Nine-Star Emperor Realm!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Like two vast stars colliding, for a moment Ye Mo the Great Emperor and Tian Yuan Old Ancestor's two mighty forces surged and roared; terrifying shockwaves struck heaven and earth, the spectacle extraordinary, the terror boundless, the sky filled with the evolution of Great Emperor Dao patterns.

When they struck, each blow was a collision of ultimate lethal force, endless Dao patterns continually vanishing.

Suddenly, the void shattered and reformed infinitely, the earth cracking open into abysses tens of thousands of zhang deep!

The mountains and rivers of tens of li in Chen Prefecture were directly shattered!

Everyone saw and felt utterly terrified.

After the time it takes to burn an incense stick.

Ye Mo the Great Emperor was gradually unable to hold on!

After an hour.

Tian Yuan Old Ancestor smashed Ye Mo the Great Emperor's flesh with a single palm; imperial blood spurted, dyeing the heavens red!

Ye Mo the Great Emperor screamed miserably; finally his vitality dissipated and he fell dead!

He died.

Tian Yuan Old Ancestor reached out his big hand, seized the damaged ancient lamp and Ye Mo the Great Emperor's storage ring, erased Ye Mo the Great Emperor's seal restrictions, and stored them away.

Between heaven and earth, a deathly silence fell.

Everyone was somewhat dazed!

Another Nine-Star Great Emperor has fallen!

In this era, before the heavenly and earthly changes even began, several Nine-Star Great Emperors have already died—it can be called terrifying!

At this moment.

Tian Yuan Old Ancestor descended beside Ji Fuyao, seeing her inner world entwined with Dao Resonance, her foundation deep, and smiling said: "Fuyao, your master truly treats you well."

Ji Fuyao gave a graceful smile, bowed respectfully to Tian Yuan Old Ancestor: "Many thanks for your assistance, Old Ancestor."

Tian Yuan Old Ancestor nodded: "This time it seems a coincidence, but it is also your master's arrangement. The White-Robed Daoist is indeed unfathomable, utterly mysterious."

Ji Fuyao gave an enchanting smile: "My master is indeed very mysterious."

Tian Yuan Old Ancestor swept his wide sleeve, and an ancient spirit vessel appeared; looking at Ji Fuyao he said: "Fuyao, come with me back to the sect. Many people in Nan Huang are secretly watching you!"

Ji Fuyao tilted her snow-white neck slightly, shook her head, and said: "Old Ancestor, wait until I destroy the remaining Heavenly Net Palace before I return."

Tian Yuan Old Ancestor furrowed his brows slightly.

Is this the White-Robed Great Emperor's arrangement?

Ji Fuyao's eyes flickered, "Ancestor, rest assured, all of this is under Master's control."

Heavenly Origin Ancestor pondered for a moment, recalling this encounter, his heart felt another degree of awe toward the White-Robed Great Emperor's strength.

"Very well. I'll head back first."

In the shadows, Chen Zhangsheng stared, mouth agape.

He wished he could rush out directly and have Heavenly Origin Ancestor take Senior Sister away!

Senior Sister doesn't want to go back, Ancestor, can't you just use force?

This is a huge matter of life and death karma!

Chen Zhangsheng muttered, "True experts always ensure their own safety, rather than courting danger and throwing themselves into peril!"

Senior Sister, can we be a bit more steady?

The next instant.

"Crack!"

"Boom!"

Heavenly Origin Ancestor directly tore through the void, preparing to leave.

Before leaving, he glanced at the few chamber of commerce Great Emperors present, tossed out a spatial ring, and said, "Spread my words! Whoever dares to bully my Great Dao Sect disciples with superior strength, my Great Dao Sect will surely kill them!"

The voice fell!

Several chamber of commerce Great Emperors respectfully said, "Senior Heavenly Origin, we will announce it to all provinces."

Heavenly Origin Ancestor gave a faint nod, turned, and departed.

Chen Zhangsheng's face twitched.

Did the ancestor really just leave like that?

He was speechless.

Not long after.

Ji Fuyao gathered her subordinates and collected all the spoils on the field.

She summoned the Ancient Azure Spirit Vessel, pointed far into the distance, and said, "Continue onward!"

Toward the next hall of the Heavenly Net Palace!

"Depart!"

"Boom boom boom!"

Numerous spirit vessels of the Fuyao Dynasty tore through the void, ripped open the azure heavens, and shot forth.

Many cultivators of Liang Province wore looks of shock.

Ji Fuyao actually really didn't return to the Great Dao Sect, but instead intends to destroy the remaining halls!

……

Great Dao Sect, Xuan Qing Feng.

Lu Xuan leisurely lay on the Profound Ice Bed, reading storybook tales.

Just then, the System's voice sounded in his ear.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the disciple cultivation task: within three months, let Ji Fuyao reach the Saint King Realm!"

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining a vast amount of cultivation foundation!"

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining one Nine-Star Great Emperor Experience Card!"

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining one Derivation Law Jade Slip!"

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining the Extreme Dao Imperial Armament Spear, Howl Heaven!"

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining one Lower Origin Star Core!"

The voice fell!

A surge of immensely pure spiritual energy poured into Lu Xuan's body, like great rivers rushing forth.

Immensely refreshing, it made his mind and spirit sway.

Lu Xuan's cultivation skyrocketed, directly stepping into the late Four-Star Emperor Realm!

"Not bad, not bad. This time it's the Nine-Star Great Emperor Experience Card!"

With a thought, Lu Xuan's hand produced an immensely ancient jade slip, its Dao patterns flowing, filled with the aura of "Dao" and "Rhyme."

This object is precisely the Derivation Law Jade Slip!

The System introduced, "Once activated, it automatically derives techniques, completing the method up to the Nine-Star Emperor level!"

Lu Xuan understood.

This can be given to Ye Chen or Ji Fuyao to perfect the Heaven-Burning Decision or Wilderness Heaven Secret up to the Nine-Star Emperor level!

Unfortunately, there is only one!

Then, Lu Xuan took out the Extreme Dao Imperial Armament, the spear Howl Heaven, and examined it closely.

The Extreme Dao Imperial Armament surpasses even Nine-Star Imperial Armaments!

This spear forged from ten-thousand-year divine iron has its shaft inscribed with endless Dao patterns, like burning heaven, like splitting the sun, plus a wandering dragon pattern condensing terrifying slaughterous might, with spiritual fire power surging, immensely radiant.

Although many seal restrictions are placed on the spear, the Extreme Dao aura still leaks out.

"Boom!"

On Xuan Qing Feng, a spiritual fire storm gathered.

Chen Zhangsheng was startled, his gaze intense, looking toward Lu Xuan's cave dwelling, "It's actually an Extreme Dao Imperial Armament!"

Many spirit peaks of the Great Dao Sect were also startled; hidden figures like Ancient Azure Ancestor extended their divine senses to investigate Xuan Qing Feng.

The Extreme Dao aura is too overbearing, rending heaven and earth, terrifying beyond compare!

Lu Xuan pursed his lips, "Another spear? Give it to Fuyao."

He put the Sky-Howling Spear back into the system space.

Next, Lu Xuan took out the Lower Origin Star Core and began observing it.

It is a dim, black sphere, only fist-sized, its surface covered in dense Dao patterns, containing immeasurable power within!

Suddenly!

"Crack!"

"Boom—"

The instant the Lower Origin Star Core was taken from the system space, heaven and earth underwent an anomaly: the Void Rending, space twisted, and a terrifying heaven-and-earth apparition condensed in the firmament.

Lu Xuan blinked in surprise.

This thing is too heaven-defying!

Although it was sealed with endless seals and restrictions, merely a wisp of its aura leaking out was enough to cause heaven and earth to tremble.

It is a power that completely transcends the Emperor Realm!

It even faintly surpasses this heaven and earth.

Terrifying!

All the spiritual peaks of the Great Dao Sect were shaken, and many peak masters extended their divine senses into the depths of the Void.

Heaven and earth rumbled, as if giving birth to a consciousness that enveloped the Great Dao Sect above; that aura was icy cold, looking down upon all beings, illuminating heaven and earth, making all living creatures feel suffocated.

Suddenly, Lu Xuan felt that the heaven and earth of Nan Huang gave rise to a longing!

It is a feeling of hunger, an endless yearning!

The heaven and earth of Nan Huang sought to devour what Lu Xuan held in his hand!

Chen Zhangsheng stared dumbstruck and sent a mental transmission to Lu Xuan, "Master! What heaven-defying thing have you produced?"

…
