Chapter 819: Suppressing the Nine Emperors, the Divine Court Submits

Lin Xuan stood with his hands behind his back above the Divine Court, his Lun Hui Dharma Form spanning the Void, blotting out the sky and sun. The Gate of Lun Hui slowly rotated behind him, emitting a terrifying power that devoured all things. The space of the entire Divine Court twisted and deformed under this force; the Defense Arrays of countless divine palaces activated automatically, yet they remained teetering on the brink of collapse.

The nine Great Divine Emperors charged out from the Myriad Worlds Pagoda, each erupting with the aura of the peak Supreme Realm. The nine strands of pressure intertwined to form an invisible canopy, attempting to suppress Lin Xuan's aura. However, Lin Xuan merely smiled faintly, and with a slight tremor of his Lun Hui power, that canopy shattered like a mirror.

"Are you all the nine Great Divine Emperors of the Divine Court?" Lin Xuan's voice was as calm as water, yet it reached everyone's ears clearly. "I thought you might be stronger; now it seems, you are nothing more than this."

The Divine Emperor Cangtian's expression turned gloomy, a flash of anger crossing his eyes. As the Great Divine Emperor of the Divine Court, he had ruled the myriad worlds for hundreds of thousands of years; when had he ever suffered such humiliation? But he quickly suppressed his anger and calmly sized up Lin Xuan. This youth could break into the Divine Court alone; he was definitely no reckless fool. The power of that tremor just now had already demonstrated strength surpassing that of an ordinary Supreme Realm expert.

"Great Emperor of Lun Hui, you have great courage." The Divine Emperor Cangtian spoke slowly, his voice filled with scrutiny. "You killed three of our Divine Court's Supremes, and now you have broken into the Divine Court alone. Is this extreme confidence, or extreme stupidity?"

Lin Xuan chuckled: "I never do things I am not certain of. I have come today to tell you a principle." His gaze suddenly turned cold, and his Lun Hui Dharma Form instantly surged to a million zhang, the terrifying pressure bearing down on the nine Great Divine Emperors like the sky collapsing. "In these myriad worlds, it is not the Divine Court alone that has the final say!"

As his words fell, Lin Xuan struck first. He raised a finger, and the Gate of the Hell Path opened wide. Countless wronged souls and fierce ghosts surged out, condensing into a pitch-black torrent that headed straight for the nine Great Divine Emperors. Every one of these wronged souls had been a powerhouse in the past; after death, they were trapped in the Hell Path, their resentment soaring to the heavens. Now summoned by Lin Xuan, their power was earth-shattering.

"Form the array!" At the command of the Divine Emperor Cangtian, the nine Great Divine Emperors acted simultaneously. Each occupied a position, their auras connecting to form a massive divine array. The divine array activated, and nine pillars of light shot into the sky, intertwining into a golden net that intercepted all the surging wronged souls.

"The Nine Heavens Profound Yellow Array, it truly lives up to its reputation." Lin Xuan nodded in approval, but there was not a hint of fear in his eyes. "It is a pity that before my Lun Hui, any array is but a delusion."

He pressed his palms together, and the power of the Six Paths of Lun Hui erupted simultaneously. The Heavenly Dao released righteous energy, the Human Path manifested the Qi Luck of billions of living beings, the Asura Path erupted with endless killing intent, the Animal Path manifested the might of ten thousand beasts, the Hungry Ghost Path emitted a greedy devouring force, and the Hell Path brought down boundless karmic fire. The six powers merged perfectly, transforming into a black-and-white divine light that slammed into the Nine Heavens Profound Yellow Array.

Boom—!

The earth-shattering sound of the collision resounded throughout the entire Divine Court. The Nine Heavens Profound Yellow Array trembled violently, and countless cracks appeared on the golden light net. The nine Great Divine Emperors groaned in unison, blood spilling from the corners of their mouths. They were horrified to discover that the strength of this Great Emperor of Lun Hui was actually so great; under a single strike, the array set up by the nine of them combined had nearly collapsed.

"Impossible!" the Divine Emperor Baihu roared, "He is only at the late stage of the Sovereign Realm; how could he have this kind of power?"

"He has already stepped half a foot into the Emperor Venerable Realm." The Divine Emperor Cangtian said in a deep voice, his eyes full of gravity. "This Law of Lun Hui is too special; it can bridge the chasm between realms. If he is allowed to break through completely, the consequences will be unthinkable."

Lin Xuan sneered: "Consequences? After today, the Divine Court will understand a principle. The Lun Hui Empire is not something you can manipulate as you please!"

He struck again. This time, it was not a simple crushing of power, but the manifestation of the true mysteries of the Law of Lun Hui. Countless phantoms appeared in the Void; each phantom was an independent world, a complete cycle of reincarnation. The nine Great Divine Emperors were terrified to discover that their divine souls were being forcibly dragged into those reincarnation worlds.

The Divine Emperor Cangtian turned into a mortal within the reincarnation, experiencing birth, aging, illness, and death. He watched himself change from a high-spirited youth into a decrepit old man, finally drawing his last breath on a sickbed. That sense of powerlessness made this Great Divine Emperor who ruled the myriad worlds experience despair for the first time.

The Divine Emperor Xuanming fell into the Hungry Ghost Path, tormented by a hunger that could never be satisfied. Any food that entered his mouth turned into flames, scorching his internal organs. This pain was more terrifying than death, causing him to let out shrill screams.

The Divine Emperor Zhuque was trapped in the Asura Path, endless fighting wearing down his will. Every death led to resurrection, and every resurrection required continued fighting, without end.

The other Divine Emperors also fell into the torment of reincarnation, unable to extricate themselves. The cultivators of the entire Divine Court were stunned; they had never imagined that the nine Great Divine Emperors, working together, would be suppressed to such an extent by one person.

Just then, a long sigh suddenly came from the depths of the Myriad Worlds Pagoda. The voice was ancient and majestic, as if it had existed since the beginning of time. Immediately after, a figure slowly walked out from the top of the pagoda. It was a white-haired old man wearing a simple, ancient robe, looking completely unremarkable. But the moment he appeared, the nine Great Divine Emperors woke up from the reincarnation illusions simultaneously, their faces filled with awe.

"Greetings, Divine Ancestor!" the nine Great Divine Emperors bowed in unison, their voices trembling.

This old man was the true controller of the Divine Court, the only powerhouse in the Emperor Venerable Realm—the Divine Ancestor Cangqiong. He had been in seclusion for tens of thousands of years, but today he was forced to come out of seclusion by Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed, feeling unprecedented pressure. The aura on this old man was unfathomable, far exceeding that of the nine Great Divine Emperors. That was the true might of an Emperor Venerable, capable of dominating everything and creating all things.

"Young man, you are very good." The Divine Ancestor Cangqiong looked at Lin Xuan, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes. "To suppress the nine Great Supremes with the body of a late-stage Sovereign, you are the first person in history."

Lin Xuan cupped his hands: "Senior is too kind. I have come today not to fight the Divine Court to the death, but simply to seek justice."

"Justice?" The Divine Ancestor Cangqiong laughed, "You killed three of my Divine Court's Supremes, and now you have attacked my door, yet you still want to seek justice?"

"It was they who attacked the Lun Hui Empire first." Lin Xuan said calmly, "I established the empire without infringing on the interests of the Divine Court. It was the Divine Court that sent divine envoys to oppress us and sent Supremes to suppress us. I was merely forced to fight back."

The Divine Ancestor Cangqiong was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly: "What you say makes sense. The Divine Court has been too overbearing." He turned to look at the nine Great Divine Emperors, "Remember, after today, the Lun Hui Empire and the Divine Court shall treat each other as equals; there shall be no more disputes."

Once these words were spoken, the expressions of the nine Great Divine Emperors changed drastically, yet they dared not disobey. Lin Xuan revealed a satisfied smile; he knew that after today's battle, the Lun Hui Empire had truly gained a firm foothold in the myriad worlds.
