Chapter 652: The Imperial Robe Man Descends!

The great masters of the Nine Heavens Ten Lands, upon seeing that the Great Thousand Divine Universe Lord had descended, finally let out a long sigh of relief!

It's the Universe Lord!

Great! The Universe Lord has arrived!

My Nine Heavens Ten Lands are saved!

Countless Nine Heavens Living Beings erupted in excited cheers!

In that cheering, there was sheer gratitude and ecstatic joy of those who survived the calamity!

An old veteran who has guarded the Border Wasteland for endless years, now with tears streaming, trembled as he said:

"Universe Lord… you are the Great Thousand Divine Universe Lord of legend, the dragon that shows only its head and never its tail! In my old age, to finally see your true form, I can die without regret!"

A young Heavenly Pride, face blazing with zeal, shouted: "The supreme being who wields the Great Thousand Divine Universe in legend! The true pillar of the heavens for my Nine Heavens Ten Lands!"

A gravely wounded warrior, mustering his last strength to lift his head, gazed at that towering, endless, peerless figure, his eyes filled with hopeful light: "With the Universe Lord present… we… we will not lose…"

The Great Thousand Divine Universe Lord—this supreme being who governs the endless ages of the Great Thousand Divine Universe—holds an incomprehensible supreme reputation throughout the Nine Heavens Ten Lands!

He is universally acknowledged as one of the exceedingly few who have entered the Supreme Boundless Great Perfection Realm, a peerless existence!

Such beings, like the dragon that shows only its head and never its tail, have tracks that are utterly unpredictable!

They are also unsure whether this great master is actually present in the Nine Heavens Ten Lands at this very moment.

But it is evident—

The Great Thousand Divine Universe Lord is here!

And moreover, he descended at the most critical moment!

The Dao Ancestors Dao Zu, Kun Zu, and Ye Di, along with the other Heavenly Dao Supremes present, gazed at the Great Thousand Divine Universe Lord with endless solemnity and awe.

Their respect was unmasked.

Dao Zu Geshu Wuyou clasped his fists, bowed, and in a deep voice said, "I have seen the Universe Lord! To witness your true visage today is our fortune!"

Kun Zu Kunxu Cai likewise performed the salute, his voice ringing: "With the Universe Lord personally present, the petty scoundrels of the Other Shore are nothing to fear!"

Ye Di gave a slight nod, a trace of relief appearing on his aged face: "With the Universe Lord here, my Nine Heavens Ten Lands can be assured of safety."

This is the topmost great master of the Nine Heavens Ten Lands!

His strength far surpasses that of these Heavenly Dao Supremes!

Moreover, the Great Thousand Divine Universe he governs is terrifyingly profound, with countless masters!

There are also rumors—

The Great Thousand Divine Universe, in the unfathomable Primordial Age, seems to have had… a slight causality with a certain unspeakable being whose True Name is forbidden.

At this moment, the Great Thousand Divine Universe Lord stands proudly in the Void, exuding an unparalleled pressure that subdues the heavens!

His gaze, like twin suns, pierced layer upon layer of the Void, fixedly staring at the massive Nine Nether Beast!

Then—

They too stared intently at that Nine Nether Beast ahead, watching how the Great Thousand Divine Universe Lord would prepare to battle it.

However—

The Nine Nether Beast seemed to have no intention of fighting the Great Thousand Divine Universe Lord at all.

It simply—

bowed reverently!

The body, massive enough to block the sky and span the Star Domain, now behaved as docile as a puppy!

Its nine serpentine tails, once brandishing claws, now hung gently on the ground!

Those twin blood‑moon eyes, once flashing with madness and ferocity, now brimmed with awe and flattery!

It shrank rapidly!

Very quickly it returned to a normal size!

And when it became small—

A figure suddenly manifested on its body!

A young man in an imperial robe, emanating pure darkness and the will of Jiemie, appeared!

The young man sat upright on the Nine Nether Beast's back, surrounded by endless dark aura!

His features were indistinct, only a pair of black‑hole‑deep eyes could be vaguely seen!

In those eyes, not a hint of emotion, only endless darkness and dead silence!

Looking at it—

The imperial‑robed young man clearly treated the Nine Nether Beast as a mount!

And the Nine Nether Beast seemed willingly so!

From this moment, the beast's demeanor was evident!

It bowed reverently on the ground!

Its face was full of awe and flattery toward the imperial‑robed man!

Even—

Even its massive body still trembled slightly!

It was a submission and fear emanating from its very soul!

Where could any trace of the dignity of a Supreme Boundless Great Perfection remain?!

…

This scene—

Left countless Nine Heavens Living Beings shocked to the point of their scalp tingling!

"This... this..."

A living being murmured, and that voice was trembling:

"Supreme Boundless Great Perfection's Nine Nether Beast… it's actually just a mount?!"

"How could this be?!"

"Then who is that young man in the imperial robe… what kind of being is he?!"

The Heavenly Dao Supremes, their lips were trembling!

They murmured, and that voice was filled with extreme shock and disbelief:

"To treat a supreme existence of Supreme Boundless Great Perfection as a mount…"

"What kind of handiwork is this?!"

"This… how could this be?!"

Kun Zu's eyes widened to rolling circles, and his usually mountain‑steady face was now full of astonishment: "I have lived countless endless years, have seen innumerable great storms, yet… this scene, I have never seen, unheard of!"

Dao Zu was also pallid, his hand gripping the sword trembling slightly: "Supreme Boundless Great Perfection… that is a being worlds apart from us Heavenly Dao Supremes! It stands at the pinnacle of the Zhutian Wanjie as a colossus! Yet… it has fallen to become a mount?!"

Ye Di's aged face deepened in wrinkles, his voice hoarse and heavy: "This child… no, this beast… what kind of deity is it? Even the Supreme Boundless Great Perfection must bow and submit?"

Including Kun Zu, Ye Di, Dao Zu and the rest of the Heavenly Dao Supremes, they felt unable to comprehend everything before their eyes!

Treating a supreme existence of Supreme Boundless Great Perfection as a mount!

This is simply—

unheard of!

never seen before!

……

And the Lord of the Great Thousand Divine Universe—

upon seeing the young man in the imperial robe on this Nine Nether Beast—

his pupils suddenly contracted sharply!

His face was full of disbelief!

His body involuntarily stepped back several paces!

The retreating steps were heavy and staggered, causing the Void to ripple violently!

His breathing became rapid!

And then—

it turned into a dense solemnity!

As if facing a great enemy!

His voice trembled:

"You… you…"

"Could it be… that…"

"Other Shore World… the one of legend… Darkness Source Ancestor?!"

"The true source of the Other Shore World?!"

The words rang out—

The whole venue fell into death‑like silence again!

Darkness Source Ancestor?!

The true source of the Other Shore World?!

The Other Shore World, aside from the Ten Overlord Powers that tower above, overseeing the epochs' succession—

actually also harbors one that stands above all existence…

Source Ancestor?!

Kun Zu and Dao Zu were so shocked they could not speak!

They opened their mouths wide, yet no sound emerged!

They had no idea that the Other Shore even contained such a defying‑heaven existence!

Or rather—

With their cultivation strength, they still lack the qualification to grasp the inner workings of this level?!

This moment—

The Nine Heavens Ten Lands Heavenly Dao Supremes all realized—

This Ultimate Decisive Battle is unlike previous great wars!

It is far more catastrophic than earlier wars!

And the great beings involved are unprecedented!

They suddenly realized—

This is probably not only the Other Shore World's Ultimate Campaign!

But also—

The higher‑level matter that involves the Zhutian Wanjie—

The Ultimate Darkness of the No Return Path!

Realizing this, the gathering of Heavenly Dao Supremes all took a deep breath!

Their expressions grew even more solemn!

Even—

They bore a hint of despair!
