Rumble!

As the Heavenly Emperor broke free from the Origin Source and the Immortal Source, both the Origin Source and the Immortal Source shook violently for quite a while before finally settling down!

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

They could refine the Immortal Source and the Origin Source at any moment to become the new masters, seizing control over the lifelines of all origin martial artists in the Three Realms and forcing these martial artists to fill the pits for them!

Spirit Emperor, however, wore a mocking expression, completely indifferent to the matters of the Origin Source and the Immortal Source.

The various powerhouses of the Three Realms also had shifting expressions, staring fixedly at the Immortal Source.

King Gen, King Xun, and King Gan gritted their teeth, feeling extremely unwilling!

They also wanted to seize the Origin Source, but they could not break through the Nine Heavens to enter it!

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

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

On Heaven Sealing Island, Feng's expression was incredibly gloomy as he gazed at the Sky Screen, his eyes dark and uncertain.

Just moments ago, his three disciples had perished; Ba Wang and the Heaven Fighting Emperor had died in an instant!

Heaven Fighting Emperor, was it you?

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

He had clearly declared that he had renounced the title of Emperor, yet he had still killed his disciples.

Extreme Dao Heavenly Emperor... are the Four Emperors truly untouchable!

The Heaven Fighting Emperor is still alive, but have the Emperors Zhan, Mie, and Ba truly been extinguished? Feng's eyes flickered.

Currently, it could be confirmed that among the Four Emperors, only the Heaven Fighting Emperor was definitely alive; the whereabouts of the Emperors Zhan, Mie, and Ba were unknown.

Yet among his disciples, Di Zhan had been the first to fall.

Could it be that the Earth Emperor was the one who did 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 broken free, the Origin Source is ownerless, and a war of the Emperors is likely about to erupt!"

Hearing this, Zhang Tao stared at the firmament, feeling powerless despite his desire to act.

If the human race could seize the Origin Source, perhaps the origin problems of the human race could be resolved.

Unfortunately, the human race had no Emperor!

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

In the Origin Source, "The Heavenly Emperor has broken free!"

The Human Emperor's eyes flickered, and he watched the Northern Emperor, Southern Emperor, and Western Emperor with vigilance.

If he refined the Immortal Source and the Origin Source, he might be able to learn from the Heavenly Emperor and sacrifice the origin martial artists of the Three Realms to exchange for his own ten-thousand-year transcendence!

The Western Emperor's expression changed drastically; the strife belonging to the Emperors had begun!

The Southern Emperor and Northern Emperor had frantic looks in their eyes; by refining the Immortal Source and the Origin Source, they would become the masters of the origin and could force others to fill the pits to exchange for their own transcendence!

The Beast Emperor also had his own ideas and was itching to act.

"Roar!"

The next moment, the Beast Emperor let out a violent roar, his dragon body covering the heavens as he stomped fiercely toward the core of the Origin Source!

"Beast, you dare!"

The Northern Emperor was furious and threw a punch, shattering the Beast Emperor's dragon tail, while he himself tore through the void, preparing to step into the core of the Origin Source immediately.

Just as the others were also preparing to step into the core of the Origin Source, the expressions of the Human Emperor, Western Emperor, and Southern Emperor changed instantly, and they immediately withdrew from the struggle and gathered together.

A fist radiance that seemed to annihilate the heavens shattered the void and struck the Northern Emperor directly!

Boom!

The entire Origin Source trembled violently!

The Three Realms were instantly shrouded in darkness, an endless, boundless darkness!

A massive human 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 cracked, the firmament split open, and blood rained down in torrents.

Across the Three Realms, the origin daos of countless people began to tremble, and they spat out blood!

A True Emperor has fallen!

The Three Realms were plunged into boundless darkness, with only the Sky Screen still shining with golden light!

"An Emperor... has fallen!"

"How could the Northern Emperor suddenly fall!"

"Is he dead?"

Yue Ling let out a miserable laugh.

"..."

At this moment, the Three Realms were shocked, filled with terror and unease!

Why would an Emperor fall in an instant?

"Heavenly Emperor! It must be the work of the Heavenly Emperor!"

"Heavenly Emperor, why did you kill Huang!"

In the Origin Source, the Human Emperor, Western Emperor, and Southern Emperor looked on in disbelief at the Heavenly Emperor, who was clutching the Dao Fruit of the Northern Emperor.

The Heavenly Emperor had clearly already transcended, so why would he ruthlessly strike them down?

"Heavenly Emperor, what are you trying to do?"

The God Emperor, Heaven Fighting Emperor, Eastern Emperor, and Earth Emperor stepped into the Origin Source instantly, their gazes cold as they stared at the Heavenly Emperor.

"Nothing much, it's just that Xuan is more suitable."

The Heavenly Emperor smiled calmly and indifferently, tossing the Dao Fruit into the First Heaven suppressed by the Spirit Emperor.

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

The Spirit Emperor looked at the Heavenly Emperor with desolate eyes, then suddenly let out a shrill laugh.

She knew that the Heavenly Emperor intended for her to owe him.

"Heavenly Emperor!"

The eyes of the God Emperor and Heaven Fighting Emperor sharpened!

The Heavenly Emperor had actually killed the Northern Emperor just to let the Spirit Emperor escape the Origin Source!

The Eastern Emperor's gaze was complex; the Heavenly Emperor's actions today would completely shatter the balance between the Emperors!

The Human Emperor, Southern Emperor, and Beast Emperor were filled with suspicion and uncertainty; the Heavenly Emperor made them feel a sense of dread.

If the Heavenly Emperor could kill the Northern Emperor for the sake of the Spirit Emperor today, he could kill another Emperor tomorrow!

Even though the Heavenly Emperor possessed the true source from the Sky Screen rewards that could have helped the Spirit Emperor transcend, he chose to annihilate the Northern Emperor instead—such wanton behavior was deeply unsettling!

The Western Emperor, meanwhile, was so envious his teeth ached; why didn't he have a master to help him escape his predicament?

"This Emperor intends to take Ling away from the Origin Source. Hao, do you intend to stop me?" The Heavenly Emperor looked at the Eastern Emperor with a cold, indifferent gaze.

The Eastern Emperor's eyes turned sharp, and he laughed, "Heavenly Emperor, you are too arrogant."

"You killed Ling's clansmen, yet you still want to continue acting as her benefactor... you are too shameless!"

The Eastern Emperor stepped forward and drew his divine artifact.

The God Emperor and Heaven Fighting Emperor gave a faint smile and stepped forward in unison.

"We are very curious to see if you, Heavenly Emperor, can still fight the three of us without the support of the Origin Source and the Immortal Source."

"Haha, this Emperor also wants to measure the strength of the Heavenly Emperor!" The Earth Emperor laughed heartily and also took a step forward.

He had been wounded and forced to flee by the Heavenly Emperor before, and now he wanted to settle the score!

The Human Emperor, Southern Emperor, and Beast Emperor tacitly moved away from them, fearing they would be caught in the crossfire.

The Western Emperor had long since retreated to the Eighth Heaven he guarded.

He didn't dare to seize control of the Origin Source while the God Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor were at war; doing so would easily make him a target for everyone.

The Heavenly Emperor sneered, his expression turning gloomy.

He scanned the God Emperor, Heaven Fighting Emperor, Eastern Emperor, and Earth Emperor, saying coldly:

"Since you wish to fight, this Emperor shall grant your wish!"

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

He would only be uneasy if the Yang God were also present.

But the four of them alone could not defeat him, let alone kill him!

The Spirit Emperor stared at the Heavenly Emperor with a cold, aloof expression, saying, "Heavenly Emperor, now that things have come to this, do you still expect me to follow you?"

"The Sky Screen has already exposed that you wiped out my tribe and the blood feud of my father!"

The Heavenly Emperor smiled faintly: "Because this is what you owe me."

The Original Martial Spirit Tribe was saved by him!

Her father, her clansmen, and even she herself—they were all saved by him!

Spirit Emperor was his true disciple, the only empress he had personally raised and mentored!

"Hahahaha, do I still owe you anything?"

Spirit Emperor stared fixedly at the Sky Screen, laughing bitterly:

"Heavenly Emperor, why did you exterminate my people, kill my father, and force me to join the Great Dao Struggle!"

"For these thirty thousand years, I have poured all my efforts into assisting you, and I have long since repaid your favor!"

"It is you! It is you who owes me!"

Heavenly Emperor watched Spirit Emperor quietly, remaining silent.

At the same time, The golden light on the Sky Screen began to shine once more!
