Chapter 54: Gai Jiuyou Proves the Dao in the Nine Nether, Slaying a Supreme Being on the Path to Becoming an Emperor!

Boom!

At this moment, as the Emperor War erupted.

Although it was not a true Emperor War, one had already attained the Dao in an alternative manner, while the other was a former Emperor and Sovereign; this was already no less than a true Emperor War!

Therefore, the ferocity of this battle directly stunned the audiences of the Myriad Worlds, who never expected it to be so terrifying!

And this

gave them a new understanding of the powerful cultivators of the Xuanhuan realm!

However, when the Lord of the Divine Ruins, having reached the ultimate sublimation and returned to his peak, displayed the might of an unblemished Emperor again, it left the audiences of the Myriad Worlds dumbfounded, having completely failed to anticipate such a situation.

After all...

in their view, an Emperor who had severed himself with a single strike should have fallen from the Emperor realm; how could he possibly break through the Emperor realm?

Furthermore, upon witnessing the true might of the Unblemished Emperor, even powerful beings like the Top-tier Star Gods and the Gods of Destruction felt their hearts tremble; such combat power already threatened them!

Dragon Ball World.

"Damn, is he that strong?!"

On the Planet of the God of Destruction, Beerus's expression was somewhat grim. "This powerful aura, though I am very reluctant to admit it, has already reached my level!"

As the strongest God of Destruction...

Beerus's power was beyond question!

But now, facing the Lord of the Divine Ruins in his state of ultimate sublimation, he had clearly lost his usual calmness.

For no other reason, because the Unblemished Emperor was too strong; his aura was already no less than his own. If one added his hexagonal attributes, would he not be able to suppress him at will?

"Damn, although these Supreme Beings severed themselves with a single strike, they still have methods to restore their former peak strength!"

Beside him, Sun Wukong's expression was somewhat grim. "In that case, isn't Gai Gai Jiuyou in danger?"

Originally, he thought Gai Gai Jiuyou should have been safe, since he was steadily suppressing the Lord of the Divine Ruins, but now that this situation had arisen, he was no longer confident.

After all, this aura was far stronger than before; one could say they were completely on different levels!

"Perhaps..."

"But Gai Gai Jiuyou should be able to hold on,"

regarding this, the Angel Whis remained calm. "Moreover, it is likely that restoring strength will require paying a price!"

In Whis's view, being able to restore peak combat power at any time after severing oneself with a single strike, without any price at all, was in his eyes an utterly impossible thing!

Regarding this, the subtitles provided an explanation:

【Ultimate Sublimation】

【This is the final desperate measure of the Supreme Beings of the Forbidden Zones; under normal circumstances, they do not do this】

【But if they encounter a life-or-death crisis or a powerful opponent, they will do so when they have no choice, as this allows them to restore their peak state】

【And Ultimate Sublimation also requires paying a heavy price; typically, even if a Supreme Being who has undergone Ultimate Sublimation does not die in battle, they will later perish from the backlash, thus they only do this when risking their lives!】

【However, there are exceptions to everything; if their foundation is deep enough, it is also possible to survive after Ultimate Sublimation】

【It is just that such cases are extremely rare!】

"Good heavens, so that's how it is!"

"I didn't expect the Supreme Beings of the Forbidden Zones to have such means; if anyone forces these people to risk their lives, can these Supreme Beings each restore their peak era to fight desperately?"

"Fortunately, Ultimate Sublimation also requires paying a price; it is just unknown whether Gai Gai Jiuyou can hold on?"

"I reckon he can't hold on; after all, this is a true Emperor, and once Ultimate Sublimation is triggered, it is destined to be a fight to the death; it seems they will destroy each other!"

"Under such circumstances, even Emperors, Top-tier Star Gods, and Gods of Destruction would probably not want to provoke them!"

At this moment, the audiences of the Myriad Worlds understood.

So the Supreme Beings of the Forbidden Zones had such means, able to undergo Ultimate Sublimation and restore their peak at critical moments!

But fortunately, the price of such means is cruel; therefore, the audiences of the Myriad Worlds felt somewhat relieved, after all, even if Gai Gai Jiuyou couldn't hold on, at least he could trade one for one!

A Leaf Shrouds the Heavens World.

"Tsk, I didn't expect an old and frail Quasi-Emperor to force the Lord of the Divine Ruins into Ultimate Sublimation!"

"Interesting, this Gai Gai Jiuyou indeed has some skills; no wonder he almost attained the Dao under the suppression of the Green Emperor's Daoist Laws back then; he truly has extraordinary merits!"

In the Life Forbidden Zones, many Supreme Beings of the Forbidden Zones were equally surprised, not expecting the Lord of the Divine Ruins to be forced to such a degree, risking his life with Ultimate Sublimation.

"Hmph, if not for some unforeseen change in the future that severely injured me, how would I need Ultimate Sublimation?"

Regarding this, the Lord of the Divine Ruins was somewhat angry. "Moreover, it ends here; under my Ultimate Sublimation, I am absolutely not someone that Gai Gai Jiuyou can resist!"

In the view of the Lord of the Divine Ruins...

Gai Gai Jiuyou was indeed strong, but not strong enough to suppress him, let alone rival his peak era self; therefore, he had confidence!

Confidence that he would soon kill Gai Gai Jiuyou, and his future self would surely survive!

Regarding this...

the many Supreme Beings did not refute.

Obviously, in their view, what the Lord of the Divine Ruins said made sense, because an Emperor is ultimately an Emperor!

However...

whether it was the audiences of the Myriad Worlds, the Gods of Destruction, the Star Gods, or the Supreme Beings, they all underestimated Gai Gai Jiuyou.
