The Emperor's Fury-World-Ending Immortal Light!
Today, the gates of immortality open.
Streaks of Ascension Glow descended, and mortal emperors ascended to heaven atop these clouds—what a magnificent sight!
An extraordinary phenomenon was projected throughout the mortal realm.
Cultivators and mortals from all over the world could witness this grand occasion.
The notion that ascension is a trap has gained traction.
This ascension has attracted even more attention, with all cultivators eager to see what will happen.
Is the ascension trap real or fake?
The leaders of various forces and powerful cultivators, especially those with higher cultivation levels, were all watching the sky with increasing tension.
Watching the figures rise higher and higher in the rosy glow...
The Jiang Clan Territory.
Jiang Wuji and his clansmen, along with their 'allies,' watched this scene with bated breath.
Everyone was breathing heavily, their eyes glued to the screen.
"Whether we can turn things around or not depends on this!"
Jiang Wuji swallowed hard and shouted in his heart.
As long as Ye Qingge, Yuan Ruoyu, and the others ascend to immortality successfully, everything will be fine.
At present, the only regret is...
Lin Feng was not among the ascended emperors.
Jiang Wuji gritted his teeth and said, "What secret technique did he use to even evade the Heavenly Dao's perception of the Ascension Glow?!"
Just then...
A thin, blood-red line suddenly appeared in the sky above his head.
Divide the space in half.
Splash--
The blood-red line suddenly opened, revealing a huge eyeball with a deep, scarlet vortex in the pupil.
Unfathomable.
A tall figure dressed in strange clothes and wearing a mask walked out.
Jiang Wuji and the others were slightly startled, and then they all knelt down on the ground.
"Greetings, Venerable Heavenly Punishment!"
The figures shrouded in cloaks were both respectful and extremely surprised.
The Venerable Heavenly Punishment has never appeared so openly before.
Even their interactions are extremely private.
Why did it suddenly appear now?
What is your intention?
The Venerable Heavenly Punishment swept his gaze coldly over the scene, and a voice with overlapping tones came from beneath his mask:
"Rise, all of you! The Imperial Prison has been breached, and the Immortal Court is enraged!"
He paused, then continued, "From now on, I am ordered to oversee the ascensions. I want to see who dares to disobey!"
The words had barely left his mouth.
Jiang Wuji and the others were overjoyed; with this, everything would be foolproof.
They exchanged a glance, and both could see the joy in each other's eyes.
Jiang Wuji bowed deeply and said, "As long as Your Excellency gives the order, we are willing to follow you to the death!"
He paused, then added, "With a Venerable One personally overseeing things, I doubt anyone would dare to rebel!"
Before the Venerable Heavenly Punishment could speak, his gaze suddenly sharpened as he looked into the distance.
Boom!
A deafening sound rang out, followed by a terrifying commotion.
Jiang Wuji's expression changed drastically, and he looked over.
Then Ye Qingge suddenly attacked, unleashing her Dao Domain and shattering the Ascension Glow into pieces.
Ye Qingge, residing in the Dao Domain, brandished his long whip, looked up at the sky, and shouted:
"I don't have time to waste here. Use whatever means you have!"
Jiang Wuji's heart sank, and his expression gradually turned cold. However, seeing the Venerable Heavenly Punishment to the side, he felt a little more at ease.
At this moment!
Ye Xi, Yuan Ruoyu, Great Emperor Zhitong, and more than a dozen others also made their move.
They activated their Dao Domain and unleashed their supernatural powers.
He blasted away the Ascension Glow that enveloped him, and his figure hovered high in the sky.
The Ascension Glow resembles a kind of spatial supernatural power of guidance.
It wasn't particularly powerful; it wouldn't be difficult for a mortal emperor to dodge it or simply blast it away.
Of course, not everyone is willing to give up ascension.
This time, more than a dozen reclusive emperors were also chosen by the rosy dawn, but they hesitated and found it difficult to make a decision.
For them, cultivation is all about becoming an immortal.
Now that they've finally achieved the chance to ascend, asking them to give it up is a truly difficult decision.
The remaining dozen or so emperors looked at each other in bewilderment.
In the end, two more emperors steeled themselves and broke free from the shackles of the Ascension Glow.
The rest, however, flew higher and higher.
"I cultivate for the sake of immortality, for the sake of becoming an immortal!"
"No matter what, I will ascend to the Immortal Realm! You fools, stay in the mortal world and wait to die!"
"Give up ascension just because of a single word from the Immortal Great Emperor?"
"Impossible! Even if I die, I will die in the Immortal Realm."
"I'd rather believe in the Immortal Realm. By the time those fools see us pass through the Immortal Gate and enter the Immortal Realm, it will be too late for them to regret it."
Those who did not give up on ascending to become emperors, guided by the rosy clouds, rose higher and higher, approaching the Heavenly Gate.
They communicated with each other through telepathy.
The Venerable Heavenly Punishment watched this scene with an extremely cold and sinister gaze, but he did not make a move.
He's waiting!
Finally, after a few more moments...
The sky above was filled with ever-changing clouds, and the bright, dazzling light turned gloomy and dim.
A destructive pressure rolled down.
Ye Qingge and Qingdai exchanged a glance, their faces both showing seriousness.
All the emperors who had not yet ascended were on high alert!
They knew that with so many emperors resisting ascension this time, the Immortal Court would certainly not give up easily.
Ye Xi, on the other hand, appeared calm and composed.
Then, the sky changed again.
Beyond the heavens, in the Immortal Realm, figures clad in armor and exuding imposing power appeared.
They formed square formations, scattered in different locations, with banners fluttering in the wind.
Then, a middle-aged man with a solemn expression, wearing Purple Gold Crown, and exuding an imposing aura with every move, walked out from the depths of the immortal Immortal Realm.
Behind the middle-aged man, a vast expanse of celestial light shone like an ocean.
His eyes blazed with fury, and from the perspective of the Immortal Realm, he seemed to be shouting something, but to the mortals, nothing could be heard.
A few more moments passed.
The figure from the Immortal Realm vanished without a trace.
Are those all immortals?
The mortal cultivators who witnessed this scene were all extremely shocked, as many powerful cultivators had seen the opening of the Gate of the Immortal Realm before.
However, this was the first time I had ever seen the scenery beyond the Immortal Realm!
This time, they not only saw a corner of the Immortal Realm, but also the immortals within it.
Even Ye Xi and the others were somewhat shocked.
As for those emperors who continued to ascend, they were all smug and glad that they had made the right choice!
"Behind the door lies the Immortal Realm, where Immortal Realm reside!"
Where are the traps?
"Hmph, the Immortal Great Emperor just spouts nonsense because he's a little stronger. He's utterly clueless!"
These emperors who had not given up on ascending continued to fly towards the Heavenly Gate.
It's getting higher and higher.
The closer they got to that gate, the more excited they became.
Isn't all the Qi Refining and immortality for this very moment?
Just then, the portal that stood between the mortal and immortal realms once again burst forth with dazzling light.
This time, however, it was not the Ascension Glow.
Instead, it was a beam of World-Ending Immortal Light.
Instead, it was a radiance containing astonishing power that attacked those emperors who refused to ascend.
The punishment from the Immortal Realm has arrived!
Ye Xi stepped in front of the crowd, warning, "Be careful!"
Behind me.
All the emperors' expressions changed drastically. Although they were all prepared, they still felt the terrifying power contained in that beam of immortal light.
We remain on high alert!
The power contained within this World-Ending Immortal Light made them all feel an extreme sense of danger.
"Let's all join forces and defend!"
Yuan Ruoyu finished speaking, her Dao Domain unfolded, and terrifying magical power swept out, forming a protective barrier.
The others didn't hesitate at all!
The emperors activated their magic and summoned various defensive and life-saving treasures, forming a protective shield resembling a tortoise shell.
The group hid inside.
Sizzle--
Almost instantly, the World-Ending Immortal Light shone upon the defensive shield, followed by a deafening roar.
Immediately afterwards, a strange fluctuation of the Great Dao emanated from within the celestial light.
The Great Dao Laws of Yuan Ruoyu and others seemed to be corrupted, suppressed, and gradually dissolved.
"Not good!"
Yuan Ruoyu trembled, her expression changing once again.
On the other side, the Venerable Heavenly Punishment's pupils constricted sharply upon seeing this scene, and he sneered, "I knew it, the Immortal Court was prepared all along."
"This time, we must wipe out these traitors in one fell swoop!"
Jiang Wuji and the others were overjoyed and began to rub their hands together, ready to make their move at any moment.
At this moment, launch a surprise attack!
This is the perfect opportunity to capture Yuan Ruoyu and the others. Taking down more than ten Great Emperors at once would be a great achievement!
However, at that moment, the group froze again.
Suddenly, a figure soared into the sky, his Dao Domain unfolding around him, resembling a fairyland.
Immortal Mountain appeared beneath our feet.
Celestial palaces rise one after another, the Milky Way cascades down, rays of light shimmer, and celestial music drifts on the air.
Standing atop Immortal Mountain, wielding a long spear that gleamed with a cold light, Ye Xi charged straight toward the Heavenly Gate that stood in the void!
Wherever it passed, the World-Ending Immortal Light split apart like flowing water!
Unstoppable momentum!
This scene shocked the cultivators of the Nine Provinces. Was Ye Xi really this powerful?
Meanwhile, Venerable Heavenly Punishment and Jiang Wuji, among others, had ashen faces.
Silence remained for a long time.
