Lingchao Supreme and Yuanyang Supreme led the many Supremes of Taiyan Holy Land and Ziyang Holy Land into the region ahead.
It looked like nothing more than a simple, empty expanse.
Moreover, they sensed nothing unusual.
The allied forces followed close behind them.
"Boom—"
But the moment they stepped into the region, the scene before their eyes suddenly changed!
A howling, sinister wind swept over an endless wilderness.
Across that wilderness stretched an unbroken sea of graves!
Broken steles, low mounds... At the far end of the region, dazzling immortal light shone like a road leading to the Immortal Realm, starkly contrasting with this desolate land.
"What's going on...? Why do I feel that this region is filled with chaotic Supreme auras... and even mixed with traces of immortal aura?"
Lingchao Supreme's expression changed dramatically.
A look of even greater alarm flashed through Yuanyang Supreme's eyes. "Could that legend actually be true...? The Supreme Being Graveyard before the Ascension Platform!"
"Those buried here are all dead Supremes. Some of them were even Quasi-Immortals!"
He spoke.
The many Supremes' expressions changed at once!
The Supreme Being Graveyard...
How terrifying...
"The forces behind us can't get in. It seems only those at the Supreme level or above can enter this region."
At that moment, Luoming spoke as well, looking back.
The countless allied troops had all been stopped.
Only a few Supremes from other factions had managed to follow them inside.
"Come on. We've made it this far; there's no turning back now. Let's go farther in and take a look!"
Lingchao Supreme spoke, his face set with determination.
Everyone nodded.
They continued onward.
"There's a killing intent!"
Suddenly, a Supreme's face changed dramatically as an inexplicable aura enveloped him and a strange beam of immortal light descended!
He let out a scream as his cultivation was cut away!
"No..."
In the blink of an eye, the immortal light faded. Yet the Supreme, who had been at the height of his power just moments before, had become a withered old man!
Not a trace of spiritual energy remained in his body.
"Immortal Tribulation Light... Even the slightest imperfection will make it cut you down to dust..."
The Supreme looked at the others with difficulty. The next moment, he suddenly shattered on the spot!
He turned into a pile of dirt!
Everyone's expressions changed dramatically!
Immortal Tribulation Light? It was terrifying...
Was this how the Supreme Being Graveyard had come to be...?
"Immortal Tribulation Light is the great trial for Supremes. Only those who can withstand a single strike of immortal light may reach the Ascension Platform and enter the Immortal Realm!"
"Otherwise, all their efforts come to nothing!"
Lingchao Supreme spoke gravely.
For a moment, many Supremes hesitated.
The death of that Supreme made them all wary.
That Supreme had been renowned, hailed as one of the Supremes most likely to become an Immortal, yet he had not lasted even a moment... How many among them could honestly say they were stronger than him?
"Ke ke..."
Just then, a sinister laugh rang out behind the many Supremes.
The laughter made everyone's expression change as a bone-chilling dread swept over them.
They turned to look, only to see that nine people had appeared in the desolate graveyard behind them!
At their head stood none other than "Yin Xiaokong" of Lie Huo Mountain!
A strange smile played at the corners of his mouth, while the eight elders behind him were all covered in black qi.
"Evil God..."
Lingchao Supreme and Yuanyang Supreme's expressions changed abruptly.
They recognized the true identities of the nine!
The terrifying aura of the Evil God...
In an instant, every Supreme went on high alert, bracing for battle!
"A pack of ignorant ants."
The Evil God, "Yin Xiaokong," swept them with a cold glance.
"You wish to tread the immortal path? Today, this god shall grant your wish."
"I shall borrow your Supreme paths to draw forth boundless Immortal Tribulation Light and clear the way for myself!"
He spoke in a low, cold voice. Suddenly, six arms and another head burst from his body!
Two heads and eight arms!
A sight of utter monstrosity!
"Appear!"
Boundless black clouds suddenly gathered over Lingchao Supreme and the others.
The clouds pressed down overhead, transforming into ghostly faces!
"He wants to devour us?!"
"Don't even think about it!"
"Even an Evil God has no right to run wild here!"
Lingchao Supreme and Yuanyang Supreme were the Holy Lords of their respective lands. Without the slightest hesitation, they summoned their Quasi-Immortal Artifacts!
"Taiyan Sacred Disk!"
Lingchao Supreme shouted as a wondrous stone disk blazed with divine light.
"Ziyang Immortal Spear!"
In Yuanyang Supreme's hands was a bloodstained spear. It surged with boundless might as it shot toward the vast black clouds!
"Everyone, attack together! Break the Evil God's assault!"
Luoming and the others roared as well.
In an instant, dozens of Supremes attacked together!
Nearly every Supreme in the Southern Domain had come today. Their combined assault shook the heavens.
Even though the Evil God's power was already close to that of an Immortal, his divine ability was nearly broken through by the combined might of two Quasi-Immortal Artifacts and dozens of Supremes.
But the Evil God, "Yin Xiaokong," merely sneered. He suddenly swept out a hand, and the boundless dark clouds vanished.
"Boom—"
Countless beams of Immortal Tribulation Light erupted from the Supreme Being Graveyard, slashing toward Lingchao Supreme and the others.
Mixed among them were two terrifying, three-colored beams of immortal light!
They had been drawn by the might of the Quasi-Immortal Artifacts—Immortal Tribulation Light meant for Quasi-Immortals.
"This is bad! The Evil God used us!"
"He forced us to attack and draw out the Immortal Tribulation Light, so it could destroy us..."
"And at the same time, he can seize the chance to reach the Ascension Platform!"
The many Supremes' expressions changed dramatically. Most of them lacked both the strength and the courage to face the Immortal Tribulation Light.
Worse still, two beams meant for Quasi-Immortals were now upon them.
"Enjoy your deaths..."
The Evil God sneered, turned into a wisp of green smoke, and drifted toward the Ascension Platform!
At that moment, the many Supremes were nearly in despair.
"Supremes, please enter the palace!"
Suddenly, a woman's shout rang out!
It was Huo Ling'er. She, Mu Qianning, and Yu Qishui had also entered the Supreme Being Graveyard.
Though they had yet to reach the Supreme level, the Supreme Being Graveyard could not stop them.
Feeling the terrifying power of the immortal light, Huo Ling'er wasted no time and released the Li Tian Divine Palace!
The grand palace appeared in an instant, vast and majestic.
An aura from primordial antiquity unfurled.
"This palace... is terrifying!"
"Come on, get inside at once!"
"Perhaps we can escape this calamity!"
Lingchao Supreme, Yuanyang Supreme, and the others hurried into the Li Tian Divine Palace.
Once inside, everyone was shaken.
"What kind of palace is this? Why do I feel... so insignificant?"
"It contains immortal laws, and Dao principles of fire are everywhere."
"This... could it be a true Immortal Artifact?"
Everyone was stunned.
Meanwhile, the Immortal Tribulation Light filling the sky crashed down upon the Li Tian Divine Palace.
Many Supremes had already closed their eyes, unable to bear watching what came next.
But the tremendous impact they had imagined never came. The countless beams of Immortal Tribulation Light vanished the instant they neared the Li Tian Divine Palace.
Like snowflakes melting the moment they drew near a blazing furnace.
Not even the slightest ripple appeared!
In an instant, the many Supremes were dumbfounded.
Th-this divine palace... just what kind of treasure was it?
Even the tribulation light that could destroy Quasi-Immortals couldn't harm this palace? How terrifying!
Could it be the dwelling of a Deity?
