Rumble!

As the Heavenly Emperor departed the Origin Source and Immortal Source, the Origin Source and Immortal Source shook violently for a while before finally settling down!

Human Emperor, Western Emperor, Northern Emperor, Southern Emperor, and Beast Emperor clearly sensed that the Immortal Source and Origin Source were now ownerless.

They could refine the Immortal Source and Origin Source at any time, become their new masters, control the lifelines of all the Origin martial artists in the Three Realms, and make those martial artists fill the pits for them!

Spirit Emperor merely wore a mocking expression, completely unconcerned with the Origin Source and Immortal Source.

The powerful figures across the Three Realms also looked unsettled, staring fixedly at the Immortal Source.

King Gen, King Xun, King Gan, and the others clenched their teeth, deeply unwilling to accept this!

They wanted to seize the Origin Source, too, but they couldn't break through the Ninth Heaven and enter it!

Apart from the Emperors, only Heaven Suppressing King had the ability to break through the Ninth Heaven and compete with the other Emperors for control of the Origin Source and Immortal Source.

But Heaven Suppressing King had already transcended and would never compete for control of the Origin Source.

On Heaven Sealing Island,

Feng's expression was utterly gloomy as he looked up at the Sky Screen, his eyes dark and unreadable.

Just moments ago, three of his disciples had perished. Ba Wang and Dou Tian had died in an instant!

"Heaven Fighting Emperor, was this your doing?"

Feng crushed the cup in his hand and gave a self-mocking smile.

He had clearly declared that he was giving up the title of Emperor, yet he had still killed Feng's disciples.

Extreme Dao Heavenly Emperor... Was it really impossible to provoke the Four Emperors?

"Heaven Fighting Emperor is still alive. Have Zhan, Mie, and Ba been completely annihilated?" Feng's expression shifted.

At present, it was certain that among the Four Emperors, only Heaven Fighting Emperor was definitely alive. Zhan, Mie, and Ba were nowhere to be found.

But among Feng's disciples, Di Zhan had been the first to perish.

Could Earth Emperor have done it?

Feng took a deep breath, suppressing the unwillingness in his heart.

In the Human Realm,

Heaven Suppressing King's expression was grave. "The Heavenly Emperor has escaped. The Origin Source is ownerless. I'm afraid a battle among the Emperors is about to break out!"

At this, Zhang Tao gazed up at the sky, feeling helpless.

If humanity could seize the Origin Source, then perhaps humanity's Origin problem could be solved.

Unfortunately, humanity had no Emperor!

The struggle for the Origin Source's master was destined to have nothing to do with them.

In the Origin Source,

"The Heavenly Emperor has escaped!"

Human Emperor's eyes flickered as he warily watched Northern Emperor, Southern Emperor, and Western Emperor.

If he refined the Immortal Source and Origin Source, he might well be able to follow the Heavenly Emperor's example, sacrificing the Origin martial artists of the Three Realms in exchange for ten thousand years of transcendence!

Western Emperor's expression changed drastically. The struggle among the Emperors had begun!

Southern Emperor and Northern Emperor's eyes were feverish. If they refined the Immortal Source and Origin Source, they would become the masters of the Origin, able to use others to fill the pits in exchange for their own transcendence!

Beast Emperor had similar ideas and was itching to act.

"Roar!"

The next moment, Beast Emperor let out a furious roar. His dragon body covered the heavens and earth as he suddenly strode toward the core of the Origin Source!

"Beast, you dare!"

Northern Emperor roared in fury and threw a punch, shattering Beast Emperor's dragon tail. Then he tore through the void and prepared to enter the core of the Origin Source at once.

Just as the others were about to enter the core of the Origin Source as well, Human Emperor, Western Emperor, and Southern Emperor's expressions changed dramatically. They immediately withdrew from the contest and gathered together.

A fist that could annihilate heaven and earth shattered the void and struck Northern Emperor directly!

Rumble!

The entire Origin Source trembled violently!

Darkness instantly shrouded the Three Realms, boundless and endless!

A gigantic figure suddenly appeared in the void.

In an instant, the figure collapsed!

A mechanical voice resounded throughout the Three Realms!

"Northern Emperor, Xuan, has fallen!"

The earth split apart, the sky cracked open, and blood rain poured down.

Throughout the Three Realms, countless people's Origin Great Paths began to tremble, and they coughed up blood!

A True Emperor had fallen!

The Three Realms sank into boundless darkness. Only the Sky Screen still shone with golden light!

"An Emperor... has fallen!"

"Why did Northern Emperor suddenly fall?"

"Is he dead?"

Yue Ling let out a bitter laugh.

"..."

At that moment, the Three Realms were shocked, gripped by fear and unease!

Why had an Emperor fallen in an instant?

"The Heavenly Emperor! It must have been the Heavenly Emperor!"

"Heavenly Emperor, why did you kill Huang!"

In the Origin Source, Human Emperor, Western Emperor, Southern Emperor, and the others stared at the Heavenly Emperor in disbelief as he held Northern Emperor's Dao Fruit.

The Heavenly Emperor had already transcended. Why was he still striking them down so mercilessly?

"Heavenly Emperor, what are you doing?"

God Emperor, Heaven Fighting Emperor, Eastern Emperor, and Earth Emperor instantly entered the Origin Source, staring coldly at the Heavenly Emperor.

"Nothing. Xuan was simply the most suitable."

The Heavenly Emperor gave a calm, indifferent smile and casually tossed the Dao Fruit into the First Heaven guarded by Spirit Emperor.

The Dao Fruit shattered, and the crack in the First Heaven guarded by Spirit Emperor closed completely!

Spirit Emperor gazed at the Heavenly Emperor with sorrow in her eyes, then suddenly gave a bitter laugh.

She knew the Heavenly Emperor was making sure she owed him.

"Heavenly Emperor!"

God Emperor, Heaven Fighting Emperor, and the others narrowed their eyes!

The Heavenly Emperor had actually killed Northern Emperor just to free Spirit Emperor from the Origin Source!

Eastern Emperor's gaze was complicated. The Heavenly Emperor's actions today would completely shatter the balance among the Emperors!

Human Emperor, Southern Emperor, and Beast Emperor were full of uncertainty. The Heavenly Emperor had begun to frighten them.

Today, the Heavenly Emperor had killed Northern Emperor for Spirit Emperor. Tomorrow, he could kill another Emperor!

Even though the Heavenly Emperor could use the Sky Screen's reward to give Spirit Emperor the True Source she needed to transcend, he had still chosen to kill Northern Emperor. Such wanton behavior made them deeply uneasy!

Western Emperor was so envious his teeth hurt. Why couldn't he have a master who would help him escape, too?

"This Emperor is taking Ling away from the Origin Source. Hao, are you going to stop me?" The Heavenly Emperor looked indifferently at Eastern Emperor.

Eastern Emperor's gaze sharpened, and he smiled. "Heavenly Emperor, you're too arrogant."

"You killed Ling's kin, yet you still want to be her benefactor... You're shameless!"

Eastern Emperor stepped forward and took out his divine weapon.

God Emperor and Heaven Fighting Emperor smiled faintly and stepped forward together.

"We'd very much like to find out whether you can still fight the three of us without the Origin Source and Immortal Source empowering you, Heavenly Emperor."

"Haha, this Emperor would also like to test the Heavenly Emperor's strength!" Earth Emperor laughed heartily and stepped forward as well.

Earlier, the Heavenly Emperor had wounded him and driven him away. Now he was going to even the score!

Human Emperor, Southern Emperor, and Beast Emperor tactfully moved away from them, afraid of getting caught in the crossfire.

Western Emperor had long since fled back to the Eighth Heaven he guarded.

He didn't dare seize control of the Origin Source while God Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor were fighting, either. He would easily become the target of their combined attacks.

The Heavenly Emperor sneered, his expression turning gloomy.

He swept his gaze over God Emperor, Heaven Fighting Emperor, Eastern Emperor, and Earth Emperor, then said coldly:

"Since you want to fight, I'll grant your wish!"

Although his strength had declined somewhat, he still did not fear God Emperor and the others.

He would have felt uneasy if Yang God were there as well.

But God Emperor and the other three could neither defeat him nor kill him!

Spirit Emperor stared coldly at the Heavenly Emperor and said icily, "Heavenly Emperor, even now, do you still expect me to follow you?"

"The Sky Screen has exposed that you wiped out my tribe and that you're responsible for my father's blood feud!"

The Heavenly Emperor smiled faintly. "Because you owe me."

He had saved the Original Martial Spirit Tribe!

He had saved her father, her people, and even Spirit Emperor herself!

Spirit Emperor was his true disciple, the only female Emperor he had personally trained from the ground up!

"Hahahaha! I still owe you?"

Spirit Emperor stared fixedly at the Sky Screen and laughed bitterly.

"Heavenly Emperor, why did you wipe out my people, kill my father, and force me to join the battle over the Great Dao!"

"For these past thirty thousand years, I've given everything I had to help you. I repaid my debt long ago!"

"You're the one! You're the one who owes me!"

The Heavenly Emperor gazed silently at Spirit Emperor without a word.

At the same time,

The golden light on the Sky Screen began to shine once more!
