I, the Human Emperor, Madly Writing Books to Create Emperors

But now, if they sought death, he could hardly be blamed for showing no mercy!

"Your opponent is me!" Jiang Chen thrust his sword to intercept Di Jun, a murderous glint in his eyes.

At this moment, his bearing was utterly transformed.

His entire being grew profoundly unfathomable.

Though he bore a youthful countenance, he exuded the supreme aura of one who could swallow the cosmos and sweep across the Primordial World.

"You alone cannot stop me!" Di Jun sneered, intending to casually eliminate those clamorous Human Race beings and sever humanity's path once and for all!

Jiang Chen stood firm before Di Jun, utterly unafraid!

He intoned aloud:

"Primordial Dao Law! Let all karmic ties of the world fall upon me!"

"Self-Transformation and Freedom! Self-Transformation for All Ages!"

Jiang Chen raised his head and puffed out his chest, divine might descending upon the mortal realm. His gaze toward Di Jun seemed capable of tearing heaven and earth asunder and restarting Chaos!

Boom~~~

A thunderous roar echoed as a divine radiance descended from the Heavenly Dao, stunning the ages and illuminating endless time!

Boom!

A pressure so overwhelming that it forced all to kneel surged from Jiang Chen outward across the Primordial World!

"A... a Sage!!!" Di Jiang and the other Ancestral Witches stared dumbly in Jiang Chen's direction, doubting their own senses.

That pressure from such immense power made them feel an urge to prostrate themselves.

"Impossible!!!" Zhurong and Gong Gong cried out in shock. Jiang Chen's sudden transformation overturned everything they knew!

Everyone was stunned, especially the beings of the Demon Race!

Demon Emperor Di Jun's form stiffened. He turned his head rigidly to look at Jiang Chen, his invincible demeanor receding.

A Sage!

How could this be!

How could there be a Sage!

How could the Human Race produce a Sage!

Since being born from the Sun Star, aside from facing the few Sages of the Primordial World, Di Jun had never regarded anyone with such gravity.

And this was a member of the Human Race—the very race the Demon Race had once treated as ants!

"Such immense karma! Human Race! Do you seek to bring utter annihilation upon yourselves?!" Di Jun finally perceived the outcome of this surge in cultivation. Though his heart trembled, he kept shouting.

"Let all karma fall upon me!"

"The Demon Race slaughters my Human Race kin and devours them as blood food! Today, I shall become the reckoner and settle this account thoroughly!"

Jiang Chen stood proud and aloof, supremely transcendent.

The Self-Transformation and Freedom of the Primordial Dao Law could actually grant him Sage-level cultivation.

Sage-level cultivation—that was crossing a Heavenly Chasm and burying a great abyss.

The cost of rising from Primordial Unity Golden Immortal to Sage was not to be underestimated!

If he did not make good use of it now, activating it again later would cost far more.

"Taiyi!" Di Jun was nearly driven mad!

He had never imagined that the Human Race ants he once scorned could produce a Sage!

Though this Sage was bizarre, his aura less stable than a true Sage's, suppressing him—or even killing him—was still a trivial matter!

Fortunately, he still had his ultimate protective treasure!

He called out to Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

He would refine the Eastern Emperor Bell of the Demon Race and endure until Jiang Chen fell from that mysterious state!

Boom!

Jiang Chen struck!

A single sword stroke severed time itself, its light soaring to the heavens, stunning the world!

One slash cut away Di Jun's protective fortune.

That was the supreme fortune the Demon Race had fused into their lord.

And now, Jiang Chen had severed it with a single blow! Cut it off!

"Hiss!" Di Jun sucked in a cold breath. This was too terrifying!

That was the fortune of the Demon Race, one of the two mightiest races in the Primordial World, and now a chunk had been shaved off?

How could this be allowed?

"River Diagram and Luo Book!" Di Jun no longer held back. He immediately summoned the supreme-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the River Diagram and Luo Book, to shield himself.

He had to wait until the Eastern Emperor arrived with the Eastern Emperor Bell; otherwise, beneath the level of a Sage, he would absolutely have no chance of escaping death!

The human lad before him—that was a Sage-level cultivation!

"Even the River Diagram and Luo Book have appeared! This Human race is truly uncanny!" Di Jiang led Houtu back to the Chaos Outer Heavens, not daring to stand within the battlefield of Sages!

A Sage, with a single thought, could sever the rules and Dao techniques!

One who was not a Sage could never comprehend that kind of power!

Throughout all of Primordial Wilderness, only a handful of things could allow those beneath Sagehood to withstand a Sage's single strike.

The God-Slaying Spear, the Houtian Merit Supreme Treasure Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, and the three items among the Xiantian Supreme Treasures.

Beyond these, everything beneath a Sage was nothing but ants.

"That Human... has he truly Attained Dao?"

Zhurong stood in the Chaos Outer Heavens, staring at Jiang Chen, his face full of shock, his heart pounding.

"It's not Attaining Dao. It's a mysterious Dao technique that forcibly elevates one's realm," Di Jiang replied.

"But that's Sage-level cultivation! Does such a Dao technique exist in the Primordial Wilderness?" Gong Gong asked in confusion.

A Sage and one beneath a Sage were two completely different concepts—an insurmountable Heavenly Chasm that could never be crossed!

"Hard to say. When Demon Ancestor Luohu once wielded the God-Slaying Spear, he was nearly undefeatable. It's not unreasonable for such a Dao technique to appear when fighting a Sage."

"I observe that the Dao technique this child is using bears an immense karmic burden—the price paid is far too great."

"Did it have to come to this? Has the Demon Emperor Di Jun never reflected on his own faults..." Houtu's voice trailed off in a sorrowful sigh.

Too many had died among both the Wu Clan and the Human race.

As Jiang Chen had said before, thirty years on the east side of the river, thirty years on the west—do not bully the poor of Humanity.

Now that the Human race had a cultivator of Sage-level strength emerge, even if it was only a fleeting brilliance, it was enough to make the Demon Clan bleed heavily.

"I suspect this state won't last long. Let's watch and wait for now... This Human has exceeded all our expectations."

Di Jiang and the other Ancestral Witches shifted their gazes toward the summit of Shouyang Mountain.

Jiang Chen's White Robe rustled, and the Holy Sword of Slaughter in his hand emitted a cold, sharp light.

He intended to keep Di Jun here!

"Cough, cough..." Xuanyuan Shi, Shennong Shi, and Suiren Shi felt an overwhelming Sage aura.

A trace of their original essence slowly began to recover!

Just now, Jiang Chen had used Sage-level Mana to restore them, pulling them back from the brink of certain death!

"The Human Emperor!!" Xuanyuan Shi's face was filled with terror!

He stared at Jiang Chen, who had risen to Sage-level cultivation, his entire body trembling.

He knew all too well the aftereffects of the Great Law of Self-Transformation and Freedom.

Even merely ascending to the Great Luo Realm had cost him his life.

Though he had awakened now, his body was ravaged by boundless karmic backlash, and even his supreme bones were broken!

"Our Human race finally produced a guide, one who explored a great path leading to the Path of Transcendence! And now, after this ultimate sublimation, he is about to fall—how utterly tragic!"

Xuanyuan Shi roared with all his remaining strength.

"Lord Taiqing the Sage! We beg you to take pity on the Human race, to leave us a single spark of incense! The Human Emperor must not walk the path of annihilation!"

"Lord Taiqing the Sage! Empress Nuwa! We are willing to offer worship for lifetimes upon lifetimes, begging only that you two Sages preserve the hope of our Human race. Stop this calamity from unfolding!"

"The Human Emperor!"

Laments rose from all sides. They did not want to see Jiang Chen die after his ultimate sublimation to slay the Demon Emperor Di Jun.
