"I am the Holy Emperor, and I shall suppress all enemies!"
The Sun Emperor's answer was simple, yet extremely powerful.
The Supreme Being of Abandoned Heaven chuckled.
"Stubborn and unyielding! Look at your descendants! What have they become? Their lineage has been extinguished! Does such a Ziwei Star deserve your sacrifice? Is it worthy of your selfless dedication?" The Abandoned Heaven Supreme said disdainfully.
"That's so stupid!"
As the Supreme Being of Abandoned Heaven finished speaking, countless cultivators on Ziwei Star felt ashamed.
"Ha, a bunch of ants. When you were alive, they remembered your kindness when they needed you, but when you passed away, or when they no longer needed you, they forgot your existence in the blink of an eye," the Supreme Abandoned Heaven said coldly.
boom!
The Sun Emperor said nothing more, but simply swung his Imperial Fist. The stone tower trembled slightly, and billions of rays of light burst forth, as if hundreds of stars were exploding at the same time, with an awe-inspiring power.
Buzz...
Chains of divine law danced, piercing through the stars, showcasing the power of an ancient supreme being.
As emperors and sovereigns who have both attained enlightenment, the Supreme Being of Abandoned Heaven has the strongest confidence and naturally would not admit that other celestial beings, ancient emperors, and great emperors are stronger than himself.
Bang!
After exchanging two more blows, the Supreme Abandoned Heaven coughed up blood and retreated across a star field. His imperial aura spread out, devouring two stars before extinguishing them instantly. Billions of scorching energies surged into the Supreme Abandoned Heaven's body.
The Sun Emperor's figure also swayed.
Ultimately, this was just a human skin, not the emperor at his peak.
Tsk~
The skin cracked, revealing more bloodstains, a shocking sight.
"Fine, Sun Emperor, I'll give you face." The Supreme Abandoner of Heaven waved his hand, and royal blood dripped down, piercing through the starry sky.
After several moves, unable to remove the Sun Emperor's human skin, the Supreme Abandoner of Heaven decided to give up.
He didn't want to fight to the death with a mere human skin.
What a waste of divine power!
The universe is vast and there is no shortage of ancient stars. At worst, we can go to a few more places, exterminate 80% or 90% of all living beings, and then devour them to replenish the deficiencies in the Emperor's body.
Although he still exists in the world in his physical form, he severed his own life, losing his imperial status and lacking that invincible domineering aura.
The Sun Saint Emperor's human skin, bearing the Emperor's Mark, combined with the eruption of the Emperor Tower, temporarily granted him the power of an Emperor.
However, this cannot be considered a resurrection; it is merely a brief awakening with a trace of its former self. Once this trace is exhausted, it will return to nothingness.
"Sun Emperor, you shall remain on this star to protect them. But in your current state, how long can you safeguard them?"
"What you did is indeed admirable, but was it worth it for those people?"
The Supreme Being of Abandoned Heaven coldly asked a question, put away his imperial weapon, soared into the sky, disappeared into the dark void, and in the blink of an eye, he fled light-years away to another star field.
The Sun Emperor's magnanimity in protecting all living beings, even at the cost of his life, is something that even the fallen Supreme Being of Abandoned Heaven can only admire.
However, he did not think that the Sun Emperor's actions were worthwhile.
The fate of the solar lineage explains everything.
On that ancient star shrouded in purple mist, countless cultivators felt remorse and deep remorse. They had watched as the Sun lineage was wiped out and their lineage destroyed. But at this critical moment of life and death, who was it that answered their call, ultimately appearing in the world to protect them?
Even if all that's left is a human skin!
"Phew~~"
The mighty Sun Emperor, due to the depletion of his power, has a fading body, with his flesh, blood, and meridians appearing and disappearing intermittently, seemingly on the verge of collapse at any moment.
That facade alone is genuine.
The Imperial Tower floated beside him, surrounded by the Imperial Path, supporting the Sun Saint Emperor.
Dragging his nearly destroyed body, the Sun Emperor gazed at the Purple Star and noticed that the bodies of the billions of beings that had been devoured by the Abandoned Heaven Supreme had exploded, with blood and mud everywhere.
Instantly, tears of blood streamed from the eyes of the Sun Emperor.
His hair was gray, like that of an old man in his twilight years, frail and dying.
However, within the Sun Emperor's chest, there was a surge of energy. He struggled to support his frail body, and the imperial blood on his human skin glowed, revealing the Holy Emperor's Dao principles once again.
boom!
A dazzling radiance shone forth, piercing the sky and illuminating the darkness beyond.
"Sun Emperor, I think you've really gone mad!" The angry voice of the Abandoned Heaven Supreme echoed from the distant star field.
It turned out that although the Sun Emperor was about to dissipate, he stubbornly held on. The Imperial Tower emitted a dazzling light, flowing with the laws of the Sun Emperor, and together with the Human Emperor, they pursued and killed him.
As an ancient sage emperor, how could he allow the supreme being of the forbidden zone to wreak havoc on all living beings?
"Since you insist on seeking death, I will grant your wish." The Supreme Abandoned Heaven roared in anger, shaking the void and causing countless stars to explode.
Just then, with a whoosh, a divine light streaked across from the distant depths of the universe, combining with the Sun Saint Emperor and the Emperor Tower to deliver a heavy blow to the Abandoned Heaven Supreme.
"The Sun Emperor's Seal?!" The voice of the Abandoned Heaven Supreme changed from full of anger to coldness.
As a former ancient emperor, he was experienced in battle. At critical moments, his mind was as sharp as a knife, cutting off all distractions and maintaining a calm mindset to deal with the enemy.
"A human skin, two imperial artifacts... Ha, although they were forged by people of our caliber, they are ultimately no match for us without a master. When I shatter them, I will extract the essence of the imperial path to help me recover!" the Abandoned Heaven Supreme said coldly.
Originally, he didn't want to fight against beings of the same level; wouldn't it have been better to simply harvest all living beings at will?
It also saved energy.
However, the Sun Emperor Tower, the Moon Emperor Seal, and the Sun Saint Emperor transformed from human skin relentlessly pursued and entangled him.
The Supreme Being of Abandoned Heaven had no choice but to change his strategy.
"Buzz..."
The Supreme Being of Abandoned Heaven, the Great Seal of the Yin Human Emperor, merely trembled, and a faint, majestic phantom appeared in the starry sky.
That was the ancient Taiyin Holy Emperor!
He was on par with the Sun Emperor and was hailed as one of the two great human emperors!
However, that was merely the Emperor's Seal, a phantom image revealed after being activated according to the Holy Emperor's Laws, not the Holy Emperor's true form.
Even the human skin of the Sun Emperor cannot compare.
Furthermore, the Taiyin Emperor's Seal has a missing corner and is not in its complete state.
Of course, the Ancient Seal of the Human Emperor once dominated the nine heavens and ten earths. Even though it was incomplete, it was still incredibly powerful. Its imperial might was vast and pervasive, intimidating the six directions and eight wastelands. In many nearby star fields, such as the Ziwei Ancient Star, hundreds of millions of cultivators were excited.
"Two imperial artifacts, combined with the Holy Emperor, might be enough to stop the Abandoned Heaven Supreme!"
Countless cultivators prayed, excited and eager to ascend to heaven to pay homage to the two ancient holy emperors.
"Buzzing..."
The boundless power of faith, flowing endlessly and surging into the void, poured into the remnants of the Sun Emperor's body and the Great Seal of the Human Emperor, providing them with meager strength.
Even with the combined mental power of so many cultivators, the power of the ultimate path is not considered very abundant.
Unless, of course, there is an accumulation of tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years!
Peng!
The Sun Emperor wields his Imperial Fist, his aura engulfing the universe, invincible in heaven and earth, possessing a grandeur unmatched throughout history.
The stone tower roared, and countless rays of fire fell down, like the convergence of millions of stars. Its internal temperature was so high that it could burn the heavens and the earth.
At the same time, the ancient seal of the Taiyin Emperor was also fully revived, with dark light surging and coldness freezing the void.
rumble!
The Supreme Being of Abandoned Heaven remained calm and composed, his divine chains flying as he defended from both sides without leaving the slightest opening.
He was still his original form. Even though the cracks in the Sendai were widening, in terms of condition, he was still better than the Sun Emperor, the Stone Tower, and the Imperial Seal.
"You're just a human skin, I'll beat you to a pulp!"
"Since this supreme imperial weapon was forged by someone of our caliber, then we can destroy it!"
The Supreme Being of Abandoned Heaven fought to the point of madness, his chains of divine laws swirling, piercing through the sea of stars, and shaking all living beings.
The Sun Emperor's incompleteness made him increasingly illusory, yet he never retreated, relentlessly entangled with this Supreme Being who had abandoned the heavens.
The Imperial Tower and the Imperial Seal launched a frenzied attack, diverting the Supreme Being's energy and relieving pressure on the Sun Saint Emperor.
The two imperial weapons possessed spirits, respecting the Holy Emperor of the Sun and hating the now fallen Supreme Being of Abandoned Heaven.
In a sense, the so-called imperial weapons are a continuation of the lives of ancient emperors.
"Two ancient holy emperors..."
In another vast star field, Cao Ya was engaged in battle with the Stone Emperor and the Lord of Reincarnation, leaving him no time to intercept other supreme beings.
They could only sense the movement of the surrounding starry sky.
Cao Ya felt a deep respect for the Sun Emperor, the Stone Pagoda, and the ancient seal of the Moon Emperor.
In fact, the cultivation of this body originally came from the "Taiyin Sword Manual," which was created by the direct disciple of the Taiyin Human Emperor and passed down to later generations. Cao Ya obtained it by chance and embarked on the path of cultivation.
To be honest, he could be considered a descendant of the Taiyin Emperor.
"If the Holy Emperor were to be reborn, how could I possibly perish here?"
Cao Ya raised his head, his fighting spirit burning fiercely. He turned his Blue Gold Divine Sword, and in an instant, endless sword energy burst forth from all directions.
The Way Spreads Throughout the World!
"It's that trick again." The Stone Emperor frowned, brandishing the Heavenly Desolate Halberd. The Imperial Law surged, and a black dragon rose up, baring its fangs and claws, before vanishing along with countless strands of sword energy.
The Lord of Reincarnation made a hand seal, and divine light flowed from his cyan-gold battle armor, making his defensive capabilities unparalleled in the world.
The two supreme beings, along with the imperial weapons they forged at their peak, imbued with the Great Dao, are like a continuation of their lives. This one plus one is far greater than two.
Even if Cao Ya is very skilled, it is difficult for him to gain an advantage in a one-on-two situation. The situation is deadlocked, and neither side can achieve an overwhelming victory.
However, Cao Ya's performance has already shaken the world, leaving countless cultivators speechless.
It should be noted that the Great Accomplishment Holy Body on another battlefield was once famous throughout the ancient era, but even with all its might, it could only rival the Eternal Heavenly Venerable.
[I highly recommend Yeguo Reading; it's really good for tracking books. You can download it here: yeguoyuedu. Everyone should give it a try!]
Cao Ya's opponents are two supreme masters!
The crowd believed that Cao Ya could be called the Supreme One, a unique Daoist at the highest level. If he were to attain the Dao and merge with the Heavenly Heart Mark, he might become the strongest emperor in history.
No less than the Ruthless Great Emperor and the Beginningless Great Emperor!
"The Eternal Heavenly Venerable, the Stone Emperor, the Lord of Reincarnation, and the Abandoned Heaven Supreme are now being intercepted by the Great Accomplished Holy Body, the Remnant Cauldron of the Divine Organization, the Cao Ya Supreme, the Sun Holy Emperor's human skin and Imperial Tower, and the Taiyin Human Emperor's Imperial Artifact. These numerous powerful figures and divine objects are being brought down."
"But who can stop the Supreme Being of Light and Darkness, the Lord of the Divine Ruins?"
"The dark upheaval initiated by the two supreme beings is terrifying enough!"
...
All beings prayed, hoping that a new emperor-level being or entity would emerge to stop the last two supreme beings and quell the dark turmoil.
The Void Emperor, the Eternal Universe Emperor, the Amitabha Buddha Emperor, the Western Queen Mother, the Nine Li Emperor, the Supreme Emperor, the Dao Yan Emperor, and other ancient emperors were all prayed to by myriad spirits, their thoughts surging and drifting in the vast emptiness.
******
After leaving Earth, the Supreme Being of Light and Darkness traversed the starry sky, nearly annihilating two star regions, before arriving at the Ancestral Star of the Overlord Body.
Upon discovering this, the Supreme Being of Light and Darkness smiled faintly.
The Great Accomplishment Body is an unconventional path to enlightenment.
The Azure Heaven Tyrant Bloodline has been an archenemy of the Ancient Desolate Sacred Body lineage since ancient times, and has also produced many Great Accomplishment Tyrant Bodies. They once suppressed the dark turmoil and reshaped the order of heaven and earth.
However, unlike the Ancient Sacred Body, which has produced nine consecutive Great Sacred Bodies, it is unparalleled in the past, present, and future.
On the ancestral star of the Overlord Body, countless cultivators were filled with fear and unease.
In modern times, there is no one who has achieved the ultimate form of the Overlord Body.
"Who dares to harm my ancestral star?!" Suddenly, a roar erupted from the depths of the Overlord Ancestral Star. A powerful figure awoke, stepped out of the Divine Source, and stirred up the wind and clouds with his aura. He formed the Overlord Fist seal and forcefully bombarded the Light and Dark Supreme.
It was a fully-formed, supreme body, sealed within the divine source, having lived since the ancient times.
Immediately, cultivators from all directions were overjoyed.
Another supreme-level powerhouse has appeared, capable of stopping the Light and Dark Supreme!
"Those who attain enlightenment through alternative means, though slightly inferior to emperors and sovereigns, still have their advantages. Because they have not yet attained enlightenment, they have merged with the Heavenly Heart Mark and rely on the Divine Source to seal themselves, waiting for their chosen era to be reborn," the Supreme Being of Light and Darkness murmured.
I don't know if his tone was one of envy or disdain.
"However, your condition isn't much better than mine."
"The Great Completion of the Overlord Body, do you really intend to fight me with all your might?"
"Heh, I could kill you on the spot if I reached the pinnacle of my power. But if I'm fast enough, I can quickly revert to my self-inflicted wound state, unleash the Dark Turmoil once more, and devour the blood essence of all living beings, and still survive. As for you..."
The Supreme Being of Light and Darkness gave a cruel smile.
The threat was palpable.
It's also a sign of weakness, unwilling to fight this powerful, dominant body to the death.
Even for an unorthodox enlightened being, dealing with him right now shouldn't be a problem.
Only by achieving the ultimate sublimation and returning to the imperial status can one surpass the Great Accomplished Hegemon Body.
But the Supreme Being of Light and Darkness was unwilling to do so.
He had reached the pinnacle of sublimation, but the cost was too great. He feared he couldn't make up for it and would die, passing away peacefully under the starry sky.
The Great Accomplishment Overlord remained silent and did not answer.
However, after exchanging a few blows, the two stepped back and tacitly stopped fighting.
"That's wonderful." The Light and Dark Supreme said calmly, not targeting the Ancestral Star of the Overlord Body, but heading to other star regions.
The Great Accomplishment Overlord Body sensed its own aging; the battle with the Supreme Being had just taken a heavy toll.
He lowered his head, his cold eyes looking down at the ancestral star.
Countless cultivators felt as if their hearts were being squeezed, almost suffocating.
Finally, the Great Accomplishment Overlord Body did not target its own ancestral star, but instead imitated the Light and Dark Supreme and the Lord of the Divine Ruins, wreaking havoc on the universe and slaughtering all living beings in the myriad realms.
It draws upon the blood essence of all living beings to replenish its deficiencies and prolong its life at its peak.
Another supreme being has unleashed a dark upheaval.
This scene filled all the saints of the eight wastelands with despair.
The original Supreme Being of Light and Darkness and Lord of the Divine Ruins were enough to stir up darkness and cover all the heavens, and now, another Great Completion Overlord Body has emerged...
"Is there really no hope left?"
All the saints were on the verge of despair.
"Supreme Cao Ya, Great Completion Holy Body, they can still..."
Before he could finish speaking, the assembled heroes understood that this was asking too much of them.
They had already done everything in their power to hold off three supreme beings.
Demanding more is perhaps too harsh.
Cao Ya scanned the area with his divine sense, his brows furrowing.
"You dare to be distracted while fighting us?" The Stone Emperor's eyes turned sinister as he brought down his halberd, unleashing a barrage of dark light.
Cao Ya counterattacked, his sword flashing brilliantly. After a fierce clash, the stars trembled.
With his left hand, he formed a mudra called "Smiling While Picking a Flower," resisting the Lord of Reincarnation and breaking the laws of reincarnation.
The pressure on Cao Ya, who was fighting against two supreme beings who had once reached the pinnacle of the universe and become emperors, was greater than people could imagine!
"With them, perhaps I won't need to worry about the other battlefields." Cao Ya's divine sense swept across the void, and he felt reassured.
