Four Imperial Weapons
The Holy Spirit Quasi-Emperor, the Tengshe Quasi-Emperor, and the three Great Sage Saints wielding Ancient Emperor Weapon who had fled were all shaken to their core. Their high-profile actions were a form of Intimidation, telling everyone that there were three Imperial Weapon and two Quasi-Emperor here. Under such circumstances, who would dare to make a move?
The light from the three Ancient Emperor Weapon merged into one, protecting everyone. Only then did they turn to look in the direction of the attackers.
"What?! It's you! You actually broke through to Quasi-Emperor!"
"You're the Overlord? How is that possible? Quasi-Emperor who's not even two hundred years old? How is that possible?"
The moment they saw Zhou Tong clearly, everyone was shocked.
Both the Holy Spirit Lineage and the Tengshe Lineage have extremely profound foundations; not to mention the Golden Clan, the Myriad Dragon Nest, and the Blood Phoenix Mountain, which have produced Ancient Emperor.
Their racial records all reveal the same thing: there has never been Quasi-Emperor under five hundred years old. Although not explicitly recorded, numerous examples of Quasi-Emperor illustrate this point.
But now, what have they seen?!
A Quasi-Emperor is less than two hundred years old?
This is more than half the age of anyone they knew on record!
"No, he hasn't truly overcome that hurdle yet, he hasn't undergone tribulation, so he can't be considered a formal Quasi-Emperor!" At this moment, a Quasi-Emperor from the Holy Spirit Lineage spoke up. This wasn't a Stone Man, but a Divine Tiger. Its body was covered with dense stripes, stone scales, and flesh and blood, and it had a fierce appearance.
At this moment, its terrifying crimson eyes were fixed on Zhou Tong, its body radiating brilliant Dao principles, and wisps of black mist swirled around it, as if it were about to pounce at any moment.
"That's right, he's not a formal Quasi-Emperor yet..." the Tengshe Quasi-Emperor beside him also spoke up.
This was a Quasi-Emperor looked to be around fifty years old, with a head full of golden hair flying wildly, and eyes as cold and sinister as two ice cellars.
Upon seeing these two Quasi-Emperor, Zhou Tong was somewhat surprised, never expecting it to be these two.
That tiger is the same Holy Spirit who stole the Sacred Spirit Stone Token and learned the Heaven Mending Technique in the original story; but logically speaking, the Sacred Spirit Stone Token wasn't his, so he shouldn't be Quasi-Emperor yet. How did he manage to advance to the Quasi-Emperor level?
However, the reason for Tengshe's failure is understandable. In the original story, he was about to break through to the Quasi-Emperor. However, at the most crucial moment of his breakthrough, he was disturbed by the Holy Imperial Son wielding the Immortal Iron Staff, thus causing his seclusion to fail.
Now, because of his own actions, the Holy Imperial Son embarked on the Ancient Starry Road ahead of time, thus avoiding him and allowing the Tengshe to advance to Quasi-Emperor status without any interference.
"Without passing the Heavenly Tribulation, you are not a complete Quasi-Emperor. How foolish! If you had passed the Quasi-Emperor Heavenly Tribulation before coming, you might have had a chance of winning. But coming here now is tantamount to courting death!" The Tengshe Quasi-Emperor said with murderous intent.
"You few Quasi-Emperor who have risen through the ranks are not qualified to speak to me like this!" Zhou Tong strode forward and suddenly attacked.
"Clang!"
With a sword cry, the mountains and rivers lost their color. A dark red sword light flew out from Zhou Tong's palm, its Killing Intent spanning billions of miles. The sinister killing intent enveloped the entire Divine Domain, and wisps of imperial aura permeated the air, making Stone Tiger and Tengshe Quasi-Emperor feel a chill down their spines.
A dark red immortal sword appeared in Zhou Tong's palm, its blade adorned with a series of terrifying Divine Diagram being slain.
It is the Immortal Slaying Sword!
"How is this possible? This Killing Sword should be in the Celestial Venerable Wheel Sea, why is it in your hands?" the Great Sage of Myriad Dragon Nest exclaimed. Logically speaking, this sword should not be here.
In an instant, the faces of the Great Sage from Myriad Dragon Nest, the Golden Clan, and Blood Phoenix Mountain turned pale.
This Killing Sword is here, which means the other three swords may also be in the opponent's hands. Add to that the Array Diagram and the Overlord's Quasi-Emperor cultivation... it would take at least four Imperial Weapon to break him!
Now that the two Quasi-Emperor still possess three Imperial Weapon, it is absolutely impossible for them to break the formation.
"Retreat!!"
"The Overlord has advanced to the Quasi-Emperor level and wields the Lingbao Array Diagram. He is invincible and has no hope of conquering the Divine Domain."
"That's right. Before the princes and princesses reach the Quasi-Emperor, we must not provoke the Divine Domain."
The three Great Sage were in perfect unison and immediately activated their Ancient Emperor Weapon to break through the Void the Great and escape.
They have been studying the Divine Domain for decades and have been constantly gathering intelligence over the years, so their understanding of the Divine Domain far surpasses that of these two Quasi-Emperor who have just arrived here.
Seeing that the situation was not good, they immediately prepared to make a runaway.
"Boom!"
However, at this moment, the five continents below the Divine Domain, which resembled the five internal organs of the human body and belonged to the Five Elements, suddenly erupted, emitting powerful essence with wisps of the aura of Great Emperor, surging like the ocean and sweeping across the Life Ancient Star on the God's Other Shore.
What's going on?
The three Great Sage, who were trying to escape using their Imperial Weapon, suddenly sensed something was wrong. The Five Elements Essence was too violent, and the terrifying aura of the Great Emperor was spreading, causing their Imperial Weapon to begin to glow and resist on their own, surging with waves of Killing Intent. This prevented them from escaping immediately.
These five continents were transformed from the five internal organs of Lingbao Heavenly Venerate. This is the true Emperor Corpse. Even though it has now been transformed into continents, its divine power remains undiminished!
"The riots on the Five Elements Continent started a few years earlier than expected. It seems that Dao Yi has made his move."
Zhou Tong knew very well that only Dao Yi could have such an arrangement in the Divine Domain.
Dao Yi spared no effort to mobilize the Five Elements essence of the Five Elements Continent in order to destroy the Divine Domain. At the same time, he used the Five Elements essence of the Lingbao Heavenly Venerate Dao Palace to force all the Imperial Weapon to deal with him.
"Clang!!"
Just as everyone was stunned, another beam of azure light shot into the sky. An Ancient Emperor Weapon, unknown to anyone, was stimulated by the chaotic Five Elements elements and began to emit its own light.
"That's... the Kirin Staff, there's no mistake, it must be the Kirin Staff!" the Great Sage Blood Phoenix Mountain exclaimed.
"Damn the Fire Qilin Cave Clan! They arrived here long ago, yet not a single word was leaked. They must be trying to reap the benefits without lifting a finger," the Golden Clan Great Sage cursed inwardly.
"However, now that the four Ancient Emperor Weapon are gathered together, and with the two Quasi-Emperor joining forces, perhaps we can break through the Divine Domain today. The Overlord is not invincible; he is so arrogant that he did not even undergo the Quasi-Emperor tribulation. The day will end the Overlord." The Great Sage of the Myriad Dragon Nest also transmitted their voices, wanting to join forces to deal with Zhou Tong.
"Yan Qi Yanqi, please come over. We must slay the Overlord here today, or none of our princes will have any hope of attaining the Dao!" The Great Sage of Blood Phoenix Mountain immediately transmitted his voice to the Fire Qilin Cave.
The response from Fire Qilin Cave was also swift—
"Clang!!"
A dazzling blue light flew over, and the Great Saint Yan Qi, wielding the Kirin Staff, appeared around them.
"Today, let's join forces and slay the Overlord!" Yan Qi roared in a deep voice as soon as he appeared.
"I don't have time to deal with you right now, get out of here!" Zhou Tong casually tossed out the Lingbao Heavenly Venerate's Array Diagram and Killing Sword at the same time.
"With four Ancient Emperor Weapon gathered together, plus the presence of two Great Emperor, even the Heavenly Venerable Killing Formation cannot save you! Kill!!" The Great Sage of the Golden Clan roared, wielding his Golden Mace and unleashing countless strands of Golden Immortal Light.
Zhou Tong casually used the Array Diagram to block the Golden Immortal Light, then threw it away. Instantly, the Array Diagram flew into the sky, and the supreme divine light soared into the vast star field; four Killing Sword hung down in the east, south, west and north, guarding the four gates.
As soon as the sword formation appeared, it immediately enveloped the four Ancient Emperor Weapon — the Kirin Staff, the Phoenix-Winged Golden Halberd, the Golden Mace, and the Myriad Dragon Bell— isolating them from the outside world.
The four sword gates surged and churned, constantly compressing into the Array Diagram. Each strike unleashed thousands upon thousands of rays of light, each powerful enough to kill a Great Sage —absolutely terrifying!
