Chapter 813: The Founding Ceremony, All Heavens Come to Pay Homage

The middle-aged man descended slowly, hovering above the Lun Hui Star Domain.

He looked down at the Lingxiao Hall below, his eyes filled with undisguised arrogance.

"Great Emperor Lun Hui, the Divine Envoy of the Divine Court has come under orders to proclaim the decree."

His voice was like a heavenly sound, shaking the entire star domain.

Every word contained the power of laws, making countless cultivators unable to resist the urge to kneel.

"Come out at once and kneel to welcome the divine oracle!"

He said this as if it were only natural, as if Lin Xuan, this powerhouse who had just conquered three great divine dynasties,

was in his eyes nothing more than an ant that needed to bow its head and obey.

Before the Lingxiao Hall, the nine great empresses were burning with rage.

Sima Xue stepped forward and said coldly, "Presumptuous!"

"His Majesty is the noble ruler of a nation; how could he kneel at will?"

"You Divine Envoy have quite the airs; do you think you can do whatever you want just because you are from a higher plane?"

Hearing this, a flash of disdain crossed the Divine Envoy's eyes.

"A mere newly ascended empire, and you dare to be presumptuous before the Divine Court?"

He raised his hand and pointed at Sima Xue.

"If not for the fact that you are a cultivator on the threshold of the Sovereign realm, this envoy could make your soul scatter with a single finger."

"I will give you one stick of incense's time."

"If Great Emperor Lun Hui does not come out to kneel and welcome me, this envoy will raze this star domain to the ground!"

He spoke with extreme arrogance, completely disregarding the Lun Hui Empire.

In his view, the Divine Court had ruled over the myriad worlds for countless years, and its authority could not be challenged.

Any force that dared to offend the Divine Court would only face destruction.

The nine great empresses were about to say something more when they suddenly heard a calm voice emanate from the Lingxiao Hall.

"The Divine Court?"

The voice was not loud, yet it reached everyone's ears clearly.

"I thought it was some remarkable existence; it turns out to be nothing but a group of self-important fellows."

As the words fell, Lin Xuan's figure slowly appeared on the terrace outside the hall.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his expression composed, his black dragon robe fluttering in the wind.

He looked at the Divine Envoy with calm eyes, as if looking at an insignificant character.

The Divine Envoy frowned.

He had not expected this Great Emperor Lun Hui to be so arrogant.

He did not even observe the basic etiquette of meeting a Divine Envoy of the Divine Court.

"Audacious!"

He shouted sternly, golden light erupting from his entire body.

"You do not kneel upon seeing a Divine Envoy; do you know your crime?"

A terrifying pressure descended from the sky, enveloping the entire Lun Hui Star Domain.

Countless cultivators could not withstand this pressure and knelt to the ground one after another.

Even the nine great empresses felt immense pressure, their faces turning pale.

The Divine Envoy sneered; he intended to use his pressure to forcibly compel Lin Xuan to kneel.

He would make this fellow who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth understand that the majesty of the Divine Court could not be offended.

However, the next moment, his smile froze.

Lin Xuan simply raised his hand and waved, casually unleashing a strand of Lun Hui power.

That power formed a massive barrier, blocking all the pressure entirely.

Not only that, the barrier expanded outward, protecting the entire Lun Hui Star Domain.

The cultivators who had been enduring the pressure suddenly felt it vanish and lifted their heads one after another.

They looked at the figure atop the Lingxiao Hall in shock, their eyes filled with adoration.

His Majesty is too strong!

Facing the pressure of a Divine Court Divine Envoy, he could resolve it so easily.

"Throwing your weight around on my territory."

Lin Xuan's voice remained calm, but a cold glint had already flashed in his eyes.

"Do you know your crime?"

The Divine Envoy's pupils constricted.

He had not expected his pressure to be resolved so easily.

One must know, he was an Eight-Winged Divine Envoy of the Divine Court, with a cultivation reaching the Half-Step Supreme realm.

Even an ordinary late-stage Sovereign would have to bow under his pressure.

Yet this Great Emperor Lun Hui was not only completely unaffected, but had turned the question back on him.

This made the Divine Envoy, who had been high and mighty for years, feel a surge of anger.

"Good, very good!"

He sneered repeatedly.

"It seems you prefer a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!"

"Today, this envoy will let you know the consequences of defying the Divine Court!"

Having said this, he raised his hand, intending to suppress him.

The eight pairs of wings behind him radiated blinding golden light, and every single feather transformed into a sharp sword.

Thousands of sword beams descended from the sky, each one containing the power of destruction.

This was a secret technique of the Divine Court—Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin.

Countless Sovereign-level powerhouses had died under this move.

A flash of cruelty crossed the Divine Envoy's eyes; he wanted to completely execute Lin Xuan to serve as a warning to others.

However, Lin Xuan was faster than him.

At the very moment the sword beams were about to fall, the Reincarnation Dharma Form suddenly appeared.

The ten-thousand-foot-tall Dharma Form stood between heaven and earth, and the six Gates of Reincarnation opened simultaneously.

A terrifying suction force emanated from the gates, instantly swallowing all the sword beams.

Not only that, but that suction force continued forward, directly enveloping the Divine Envoy.

"What?"

The Divine Envoy was shocked and turned pale.

He wanted to break free, only to find that the suction force was unimaginably powerful.

No matter how he struggled, he was being dragged bit by bit toward the Gate of Reincarnation.

"Just by you, you are worthy of being insolent in front of Me?"

Lin Xuan said coldly, raising a finger.

The portal of the Hell Path suddenly expanded, and the suction force increased several times over.

"Did the Divine Court send you because they look down on Me, or because they look down on yourself?"

The Divine Envoy was terrified.

He desperately urged the divine power within his body, and the eight pairs of wings behind him flapped frantically.

"Impossible! I am an Eight-Winged Divine Envoy of the Divine Court, my cultivation has reached the Half-Step Supreme Realm!"

"How could you possibly..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he was forcibly dragged into the Hell Path.

Instantly, shrill screams echoed through the clouds.

Inside the Hell Path, countless punishments descended simultaneously.

Mountains of blades, seas of fire, cauldrons of oil, prisons of ice...

The Divine Envoy suffered torture within, his screams becoming more shrill one after another.

His Half-Step Supreme Realm cultivation, which he was so proud of, was useless in the face of the punishments of the Hell Path.

The once high and mighty Divine Envoy of the Divine Court was now like the lowliest sinner, enduring endless agony.

Lin Xuan watched this scene indifferently, his expression without the slightest ripple.

He turned to Sima Xue and said, "Pass down the order."

"This Divine Envoy is a guest here with Me and is temporarily unable to return to report his mission."

"Additionally, send a message to the Divine Court."

A cold light flashed in his eyes.

"If they want the person, let the Master of the Divine Court come and take him personally."

"Otherwise, this Divine Envoy will remain in the Hell Path to properly experience what true torture is."

Sima Xue received the order and immediately arranged for people to pass it on.

The nine Great Empresses looked at Lin Xuan with even more adoration.

His Majesty is worthy of being His Majesty; he even dares to detain a Divine Envoy of the Divine Court.

Such courage is unparalleled in the world!

At this moment, Lin Xuan looked toward the depths of the Void.

He could feel that in that distant place, several powerful auras were watching this place.

"The Divine Court, huh..."

Lin Xuan said softly.

"I would like to see what kind of ability you actually have."

This news was like a storm, instantly sweeping across the entire Upper Plane.

Countless factions were shocked.

The Great Emperor of Reincarnation not only refused to give the Divine Court face, but even dared to detain a Divine Envoy.

This was simply an open provocation to the authority of the Divine Court of Ten Thousand Worlds!

The news of the Divine Envoy being detained was like a hurricane, sweeping across the entire Upper Plane.

Various factions reacted differently.

The white-robed old man of the Azure Cloud Star Domain gathered the Elders and sneered, "This Great Emperor of Reincarnation truly does not know whether he is living or dying."

"The Divine Court has ruled the ten thousand worlds for countless epochs; is this something he can provoke?"

"Just wait and see, when the thunderous wrath of the Divine Court descends, the Reincarnation Empire will surely be reduced to ashes."
