Chapter 79

~16 min read 3,017 words

In the Void Great Emperor's twilight years, the Dark Turmoil reappears!

The world trembles in terror!

Indeed, this life's cruel situation has not changed.

It was merely delayed by ten thousand years or so thanks to the Dacheng Holy Body and the Void Great Emperor's world-suppression!

Because in this era, there are simply too many Ancient Venerables hibernating in the Forbidden Zones.

And after enduring life after life, they have already reached the limit where they desperately need to replenish their Life Essence.

Being able to delay until the Dacheng Holy Body perished and the Void Great Emperor entered his second life's twilight years — for the Universe's All Living Beings, this can already be called a stroke of luck amidst misfortune; otherwise who knows how many would have died long ago.

Of course, this surprise is limited only to ordinary cultivators.

The Holy Lords, Sect Masters, and such figures of the many great powers — all of them had psychological preparation; they have perused many Ancient Texts and have a certain understanding of this Great Universe's many great secrets.

And now all signs indicate.

In the Beidou Star's several great Life Forbidden Zones, there must still exist multiple Ancient Venerables at the level of the Cang Xu Supreme and the Candle Dragon Ancient Emperor — all self-sealed from endless years past!

And now, the Undying Mountain's two Supremes emerging together — they must have timed it for the Void Great Emperor's twilight years and failing body.

For a time, the Universe's every corner fell into a tense atmosphere.

Those able to hide in secret Small Worlds or Border Wilderness secret realms are, after all, only a portion of the great powers.

More people can only hold fast on their own Life Ancient Stars.

The Void Great Emperor has little lifespan left; he buried himself in the boundless Universe Starry Sky — has he already completely passed away?

In such a situation, many are helpless, only able to stay close beside their loved ones, reluctantly hiding in ancient caves or underground depths, hoping to survive the possible Dark Turmoil.

Facing two Forbidden Zone Supremes, no matter how many cultivators there are, they are useless — like ants facing an azure dragon!

And right at this moment.

"Ao hou......"

From the Divine Yi Ji Forbidden Zone comes another terrifying roar.

The ruins here are boundless; this was once the gods' paradise, yet now it is called the Divine Yi Ji, with a Supreme hibernating within.

Traces of the past are everywhere, Dao Marks cover the ground, and a massive Southern Heaven Gate towers — a relic of the Ancient Heavenly Court that fell here back then.

As a massive Demonic Cloud surges skyward, the Heavenly Principles of that place fall into disorder!

A massive Chariot rumbles into motion, Imperial Path Qi permeates, shaking the Beidou Great Domain, startling hearts like a surging boundless ocean!

People see, atop the Chariot sits a figure terrifying to the extreme, lightning arcs flashing around its body, Chaos Qi coiling, walking out from a cracked great tomb.

This moment.

From the Nine Heavens' Heavens above, lightning flashes and thunder roars, endless lightning arcs and electric light converge!

Sensitive cultivators perceive that these lightning arcs seem excited, even leaping with joy, as if welcoming their Owner's return.

In a trance, the entire Beidou Star Domain becomes a world of lightning, as if to destroy the world!

Which Ancient Venerable is this?!

To actually be able to stir such a terrifying Thunder Sea?

"Thunder Emperor!"

In the other Life Forbidden Zones, Supremes have long since awakened, letting out light sighs.

The Thunder Emperor, also titled Thunder God — this is an Ancient Emperor who proved the Dao through lightning.

Able to command the power of thunder laws, presiding over Thunder Tribulation slaughter — terrifying beyond compare.

He sits cross-legged on the ancient Chariot; his features cannot be seen clearly, only roughly a human form — but whether he is of the Human Clan is doubtful.

Behind him, an unadorned thunder sword hangs slanted, emitting a golden halo, profound and inexplicable — an Extreme Dao Imperial Weapon forged from Dao Tribulation Yellow Gold.

Obviously.

This is yet another Imperial Path Expert who walked to the extreme on the Universe's Great Dao, who once left illustrious fame in Ancient History, ruling the Heavens and Worlds' Ten Thousand Races for an era!

In a single day, Three Supremes emerge together!

With this, the Universe's All Living Beings are thoroughly panic-stricken!

Without a doubt, with such three terrifying Imperial Path Experts appearing — who can stop them?

It is bound to unleash a boundless blood calamity!

Who knows how many desperate cultivators laugh bitterly, or curse angrily, bitterly denouncing why such places as Life Forbidden Zones exist in the world!

Many have already made preparations — the moment a Supreme arrives at their Life Ancient Star, they will immediately self-detonate, even though this may be useless.

And fortunately.

The Three Supremes did not immediately massacre All Living Beings.

They take one step out, vanishing above the Beidou Star.

Starry Sky Depths.

A Spirit Coffin of the Ancient God travels through endless darkness and cold, unknown where it is headed, emitting a bleak and lonely aura.

Suddenly.

Hong long long!

As the Void is torn open, three tyrannical Supreme auras appear, surrounding the Spirit Coffin of the Ancient God.

"Void, you leave just like that? The account between you and me hasn't been settled yet......"

The Thunder Emperor waves his right hand lightly, an invisible ripple spreads, freezing the Spirit Coffin of the Ancient God in place.

In former years, his Imperial Son was one of the "Three Demons from Beyond the Domain"; he emerged to refine a Blood Pill for his Father Emperor, to replenish lifespan.

Yet he was killed by the Void Great Emperor's Divine General Mo Cang, borrowing a Great Emperor Forbidden Artifact.

This naturally filled the Thunder Emperor with boundless resentment; he did not hesitate to act across space, wanting to erase Mo Cang, but was stopped by the Void Great Emperor.

The grudge of killing his son — to a Taigu Emperor, this is a bizarre humiliation and a deep blood feud.

Now, the Thunder Emperor has finally waited for Gu Xuan to perish, the Void Emperor to grow old, and two Dao Friends from Busianshan to act together.

This is an excellent opportunity!

He not only wants to surround and kill the twilight-years Void Emperor, but also devour his heart's blood — both to replenish his own urgently needed life essence and to vent the resentment in his heart!

And for the two Supremes of Busianshan, the Cangxu Supreme and the Candle Dragon Ancient Emperor.

The Void Emperor has long been a thorn in their eyes as well.

Not to mention that over these twenty thousand-plus years, the Void Emperor has suppressed Busianshan so it cannot lift its head.

Just speaking of the past, he campaigned against Busianshan several times, trading injuries with the Supremes within, and had already forged a deep blood feud with the entire Busianshan.

"Just dying this simply? Wouldn't that be letting you off too easy!"

The Cangxu Supreme's gaze was indifferent, his whole body emitting an incomparably cold aura.

He opened his Divine Eye, and had already seen clearly that inside the Spirit Coffin of the Ancient God lay the Void Emperor's body — white-haired, aged and frail, utterly motionless.

And the other two Supremes had obviously also seen this scene.

Hum!

Beside the Cangxu Supreme, an Eternal Blue-Gold Ancient Blade appeared out of thin air, then shot forth in a streak.

Clang!

The Blue-Gold Ancient Blade seemed to transcend the limits of time and space; in an instant it arrived before the Spirit Coffin of the Ancient God, and with a single direct strike, knocked the coffin lid flying.

At the same time, the Candle Dragon Ancient Emperor also acted simultaneously.

A simple, unadorned Phoenix Blood Red Gold Great Cauldron, carrying boundless might, appeared in the air above the Spirit Coffin of the Ancient God, descending to suppress and kill!

The other direction.

The Thunder Emperor stood upon an ancient war chariot, black hair like a waterfall, eyes cold as blade edges; he sacrificed the lightning sword slanted at his back.

With a "hum", the lightning sword was incomparably sharp, carrying boundless killing lightning radiance, slashing toward the Void Emperor's head inside the ancient coffin.

For a moment.

The Three Supremes attacked with full force, intending to dismember the Void Emperor's body.

Among this, there was inevitably the meaning of venting anger.

And even so, it would not damage the essence blood within the Void Emperor's body; Supremes have methods to refine Great Emperor essence blood.

This moment.

Time seemed to have frozen, yet also seemed to have fallen into an instant of eternity.

Three Extreme Dao Imperial Weapons, carrying peerlessly sharp killing qi, were about to strike the Void Emperor's body.

This qi was too terrifying; a randomly overflowing ten-thousandth of a single strand could suppress and kill a Quasi-Emperor hundreds or thousands of times over, absolutely no survival.

And the Void Great Emperor at the center, white-haired and haggard, looked old beyond endurance, his physical body withered.

However.

An accident still occurred.

In the split second where not a hair's breadth of time remained, the Void Emperor sat up from within the coffin.

He opened his eyes, within them endless cold light.

Then.

Clang clang clang!

He swung the Void Emperor Fist, using his physical body to directly clash head-on against three Extreme Dao Imperial Weapons, knocking them all flying.

"Finally you've come after all; didn't let me wait in vain."

Though the Void Emperor is old, at this moment he erupted with a tyrannical and peerless Great Emperor pressure, in no way inferior to the qi of the three Supremes.

"Hmph!"

The Cangxu Supreme gave a cold snort, waved his right hand, recalled the Eternal Blue-Gold Ancient Blade, and gripped it in hand.

"Feigning death — so what? Today you will undoubtedly die."

The Thunder Emperor had likewise recalled the distant lightning sword; he stood upon the ancient war chariot, gaze incomparably gloomy.

His face did not show much surprise; obviously he had speculated on the Void Emperor's condition, and knew he was not so easily killed.

But he also saw that the Void Emperor was truly in the twilight of his Second Life, his lifespan indeed nearly exhausted.

"Undying matter... Void Emperor, you do have some tricks."

At the other end of the triangular formation, the Candle Dragon Ancient Emperor's eyes shot forth golden light, filled with a strange divine brilliance.

And within it, there was also a faint trace of greed.

He possesses a Source Heaven Divine Eye secret technique of Imperial Path level, able to see clearly the internal condition of peers at the same level.

Obviously.

He saw the small cluster of undying matter condensed within the Void Emperor's body, and that one plant of Ginseng Fruit Undying Medicine.

In fact.

If the Three Supremes had not come to disturb, the Void Emperor would very likely have been able to rely on the undying matter he had painstakingly accumulated to live out a Third Life.

Of course, the premise was to immerse himself within the Honghuang Ancient Star's Cheng Xian Chi, borrowing the aid of that ten-thousand-ages-rare Yun Xian Zhi Di.

But in today's cruel era, this idea of peacefully undergoing nirvana into the next life can only be an extravagant hope!

"He has Ginseng Fruit Undying Medicine inside his body, and has also condensed undying matter."

The Candle Dragon Ancient Emperor sent out a powerful Divine Sense, alerting the other two who came with him.

And in truth, although the Cangxu Supreme and the Thunder Emperor lacked this forbidden Divine Eye, they naturally perceived the strangeness on the Void Emperor as well.

This is picking up a treasure!

If they can kill the Void Emperor, and share his Great Emperor essence blood and undying matter, it will be a supreme great supplement for all three of their Immortal Platforms!

As for that one plant of Ginseng Fruit Tree, it is an unexpected delight.

"Are you seeking death? Though I am old, I am still a Current Era Great Emperor!"

The Void Great Emperor rose from the Spirit Coffin of the Ancient God.

And after the coffin lid was struck flying by the Eternal Blue-Gold Ancient Blade, it automatically flew back.

The Void Great Emperor stood thus upon the ancient coffin, confronting the Three Supremes.

Though his hair was white and his face full of wrinkles, he still emitted a tyrannical and peerless pressure; the might of a Current Era Great Emperor was thoroughly revealed without doubt.

"Big words without shame; you're already like this, yet still putting on your Great Emperor might?"

The Thunder Emperor coldly sneered, not leaving the slightest face; he harbored deep hatred for the Void Great Emperor.

Not only was there the enmity of killing his son, but the Void Great Emperor suppressing them for tens of thousands of years also caused him extreme resentment.

And all three truly perceived that the Void Great Emperor was indeed nearing the end of his years, with little lifespan left, and his cultivation level had even fallen.

Such a Great Emperor, no matter how overbearing in former years or how glorious his battle record, facing the three Imperial Path Experts joining forces, absolutely had no chance of victory.

Nothing to say.

Having reached their level of realm, any words were superfluous; only battle would decide right and wrong.

A great battle was on the verge of breaking out.

Boom!

The Thunder Emperor from the Divine Yi Ji was the first to launch a killing attack.

He used the Thunder Sword as his main body, mobilizing the endless thunder light between this heaven and earth, forming a vast and unmatched Thunder Pool above the Void Great Emperor's head.

This kind of might was not far off from a typical Dao-proving Thunder Tribulation!

The power of thunder and lightning originally had doubled killing effect on aged Supremes, because their Qi and Blood were depleted, and they feared this kind of Thunder Tribulation power the most.

And the Thunder Emperor, worthy of being a peerless powerhouse who proved the Dao through thunder and lightning, though he had performed Self-Severing, could still completely and unobstructedly control this heaven and earth Great Dao law to suppress and kill his enemy.

"Hah!"

With his one Dao Shout, that Thunder Pool instantly condensed, transforming into an incomparably terrifying giant Thunder Dragon, locking onto the Void Great Emperor atop the Spirit Coffin of the Ancient God, and hacking down fiercely!

A Supreme strike of this degree could absolutely injure a Current Era Great Emperor!

And on the other side, the two Supremes of Busianshan likewise attacked from the flanks.

The Cang Xu Supreme formed hand seals with both hands, murmuring in a low voice.

The blue-gold ancient blade in his hand flew up, incomparably sharp, capable of cutting through all things in the universe.

And the blade body carried strands of profound and unfathomable laws; that was the power of Return to Ruin; wherever it passed, the Ten Thousand Daos returned to dust, and spacetime itself collapsed.

And the Candle Dragon Ancient Emperor was not to be outdone either.

The Phoenix Blood Red Gold Great Cauldron atop his head had long since spun up into the air, its mouth inverted, carrying some bizarre power of time, suppressing down toward the Void Great Emperor.

This was an ancient Guai Shou from endless years ago who proved the Dao and became an Emperor; though its form differed slightly from a True Dragon, it still belonged to the dragon race, and its innate talent was extremely special, suspected of grasping a portion of the power of time.

And the effect of this strike of his also verified this point.

The Void Great Emperor's right arm was struck by this bizarre light of the Candle Dragon Ancient Emperor, instantly revealing several incomparably terrifying large holes.

The blood and bone within turned to ashes, submerged in fragments of time!

Causing a Current Era Great Emperor to suffer such damage, one can see how terrifying this strike was!

"Candle Dragon Ancient Emperor..."

At this moment, even the Supremes awakening in the Other Forbidden Zones were slightly amazed, harboring some dread toward this kind of attacking Dao.

For them, this was also absolutely a killing move that required cautious handling, capable of injuring them.

"Break!"

The Void Great Emperor shouted in anger, the Imperial Path laws within his body surging up, completely expelling the Candle Dragon Ancient Emperor's time decay Dao.

And in an instant afterward, his right arm recovered as before; this was the flawless Imperial Body of a Current Era Great Emperor, which could naturally achieve this.

Hum!

A crystal clear Void Mirror traversed the endless Xing Kong and arrived, appearing above the Void Great Emperor's head.

Pop pop!

Two beams of magnificent divine light shot out, directly striking the Eternal Blue-Gold Ancient Blade and the giant Thunder Dragon.

This piece of Xing Kong underwent a great destruction!

Countless Xing Chen turned to dust; nothing could remain.

But simultaneously.

The Void Great Emperor's face also turned slightly pale.

Obviously, contending with the full-power strikes of three same-level experts at the same time, he, already aged, still paid a price.

This was very subtle, but obviously noticed by the Three Supremes, because they were all existences of this cultivation level, difficult to escape their keen perception.

This kind of terrifying fluctuation was too violent, shaking the Eight Wastes of the Universe.

At this time, many major powers in the Outside World saw this scene through Source Heaven Law Formations, all trembling with fear.

The Void Great Emperor, already in his twilight years, simultaneously battling three Supremes — how long can his Qi and Blood persist?

And if he is defeated, perhaps all living beings will welcome a Supreme bloodbath?
