was startled and furious, but he was not panicked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Precisely because of the pressure brought by the Jade Kun  Emperor, he had spent these days in relentless cultivation and contemplation for one purpose: to resist an Emperor and survive under the hands of an Emperor-level powerhouse!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, Emperor-level powerhouses were mysterious and terrifying, but fortunately, his meeting half a month ago with his Master, Fenghua Emperor, and Duyue Emperor, gave Xu Jin deep insight into Emperor-level powerhouses and precious experience fighting them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though it wasn’t a life-or-death struggle, he had already experienced it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So now, facing an Emperor’s ambush, Xu Jin was utterly calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Zhu Linxiao was not panicked, for she had already faced an Emperor-level powerhouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, Xu Jin activated Time Acceleration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though slightly delayed, the twelvefold Time Acceleration still granted him a sliver of precious time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the instant the eight Life-Linked Guardian Artifacts surfaced, the Chaotic Fish Scale Armor, Ice-Sealed Lotus Platform, and Silver River three Life-Linked Guardian Artifacts blazed with starlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three defensive Rule Arts—Void Cage, Ten Thousand Mountain Abyss, and Reverse Flow—were cast in rapid triple succession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because it was an ambush, he could only stack three defensive Rule Arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But thanks to Time Acceleration, the nine defensive Rule Arts appeared nearly simultaneously, instantly shielding Xu Jin and Zhu Linxiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost at the same instant, the Silver Thread Strangle, fully unleashed by the ambushers’ Silverwing Clan Spatial Emperor, silently slashed through—colliding with Xu Jin’s defensive Rule Arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jin knew well the nature of the Silver Thread Strangle: it delivered multiple consecutive strikes in a single instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what Xu Jin did not know was how many times an Emperor could unleash it in one instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The silver light of the Silver Thread Strangle flashed repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first strike instantly annihilated two of Xu Jin’s defensive Rule Arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the second, third, fourth, and fifth strikes, all nine of Xu Jin’s Rule Arts had been obliterated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The terrifying part was, there was a sixth strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the instant the sixth strike erupted, the Chaotic Starlight flickered faintly—Xu Jin had already activated the Chaotic Cloud Tower to shield them both.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The silver light flashed violently, but the Chaotic Cloud Tower’s Chaotic Starlight merely flickered and held firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Chaotic Cloud Tower did not even tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Xu Jin exhaled in relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Master’s evaluation—“The power of an Emperor Artifact”—was no exaggeration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Chaotic Cloud Tower was now his greatest assurance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the void before him, the Silverwing Clan Spatial Emperor, Yin Zheng, whose eyes revealed surprise upon appearing, quickly understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To withstand his full strike without invoking his Emperor Forbidden Domain—truly formidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But also expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without such strength, his Silverwing Clan’s dozen or so True Juniors would not have fallen to this boy, let alone the Sacred Ancestor’s direct bloodline, Yin Lin, whom this boy had slain!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, the Sacred Ancestor would not have sent one of his own Emperors to act personally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a human prodigy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But today, he would die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant, as a silver orb appeared and trembled above his head, he immediately activated his Emperor Forbidden Domain—the invisible, intangible spatial primordial Dao in the void suddenly boiled violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was his Spatial Emperor Artifact’s Forbidden Domain!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, with a thought, he merged the Silver Thread Strangle into the spatial primordial Dao and struck Xu Jin again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he did not know was that Xu Jin had already changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earlier, caught off guard, Xu Jin had been too pressed for time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, with twelvefold Time Acceleration—even a single instant granted him twelve instants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jin’s first instinct was to flee—to use Spatial Teleportation and rendezvous with Bai Changshan, who could certainly oppose this foe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his spiritual sense sensed the space around him suddenly boiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, it gave Xu Jin an inexplicable sense of deprivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He instinctively felt his Spatial Teleportation Star Art could no longer be used.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a thought, he shifted to full defense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, he had far more time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He activated six Life-Linked Guardian Artifacts at once—this time, he deployed a different set of Rule Art combos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Partly offensive, partly defensive!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thunder Pulp, Azure Vortex, Wind Vortex of Xun, Ice Sickness, Ten Thousand Mountain Abyss, Void Cage—twenty-two linked Rule Arts of various elements: attack first, then defend!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, twenty-two Rule Arts emerged with minuscule time gaps, colliding with the Silverwing Clan Spatial Emperor’s Silver Thread Strangle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But suddenly, Xu Jin’s eyes darkened with gravity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Void Cage had failed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His triple Void Cage had failed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is this the Emperor’s Forbidden Domain?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twenty-two became eighteen, but Xu Jin still felt confident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, the Emperor’s Forbidden Domain’s power exceeded Xu Jin’s expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, two Rule Arts could withstand one strike—but now, it took four!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four Rule Arts were needed to resist or shatter a single Silver Thread Strangle strike!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the fifth strike could be blocked, all of Xu Jin’s Rule Arts were worn away!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the silver starlight descended, the Chaotic Cloud Tower atop Xu Jin’s head blazed again, absorbing the blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spatial Emperor Yin Zheng’s gaze sharpened as he stared at the small tower above Xu Jin, his expression startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could it be that the Dao-Enlightened Emperor granted him this life-saving Emperor Artifact? Then I must end this swiftly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, a silver vortex formed above Xu Jin’s head and descended upon him like a hood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The silver vortex appeared exquisitely beautiful, but Xu Jin knew well—each strand of silver was devouring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If even a single thread of that silver vortex touched him, his body would be shattered into nothingness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, Xu Jin unleashed his full force of Rule Art combos to resist it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It only slowed the vortex’s descent—ultimately, only the Chaotic Cloud Tower blazed with starlight, spewing forth chaotic energy to staunchly hold back the ever-descending silver vortex.\u003C\u002Fp>",988,"2026-06-19T23:56:35.933Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","df4b1a9de313e81cbd016a537fd48926652c74d1cd96c3f40e3b1c973cb67dd0","the-star-martial-era-chapter-939","the-star-martial-era-chapter-937",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-star-martial-era-cover.jpg"]
