"Many people thought that way, so they committed suicide."
Su Yu's eyes remained calm as he unleashed a sword strike, repelling the Chaos Corpse. Simultaneously, all the dust in the heavens shattered, three colossal millstones exploded, crumbling inch by inch, and a destructive light pierced Eternal, dazzlingly brilliant...
Chapter 657 Setting up an array to welcome the Ancient Emperor, Kun transforms and swims in the Northern Sea
Demonic blood splattered everywhere, Su Yu remained indifferent. A cascade of crimson light surrounded him, and he grew stronger with each battle. With a wave of his hand, he repelled the millstone and beheaded the ancient remnant soul, displaying a calm and composed demeanor.
At the edge of the Thunder Sea, the Divine Kun Emperor's hair flew wildly, his eyes narrowed, and his aura suddenly turned icy, like a block of Zhen Ice had remained frozen for billions of years. His gaze grew even colder, his face grim, and he stared at Su Yu as if he were looking at prey.
Cut yourself in half!
This is the scar in the heart of the Forbidden Zone Supreme, and the darkness hidden in the deepest recesses... Abandoning glory, severing the Heavenly Heart Imprint, falling from the position of Dao Venerable, only those who have experienced it can understand this feeling.
In a sense, this strike represents defeat. The invincible Daoist who achieved enlightenment in his lifetime could not withstand the passage of time and was forced to sever himself. It contained humiliation and helplessness, and was a truly taboo topic. No one dared to mention it in front of the Supreme, because it was the most disrespectful provocation.
However, today, a newcomer has brought up this topic as if no one else is around, which may ignite a bloody battle.
Suddenly, the Ancient Supreme burst into laughter, a hint of malice creeping into his eyes. With his hands behind his back, he coldly said, "Is it the celestial artifact that gives you this confidence? Or did you develop an unwarranted misconception last time?"
As Supreme Giant who rose to power in the war of gods, the Kun Emperor was confident that he was invincible throughout history and that he was the only one who could be supreme. Otherwise, he would not have come to this point!
People with this kind of personality are not uncommon in the world. The losers naturally fall into the abyss and become as worthless as dirt, while the winners shine brightly and are powerful throughout their lives. That arrogance becomes a distinctive characteristic of their personality.
The Divine Kun Emperor was clearly the latter, invincible under heaven. The years he attained enlightenment were the most terrifying and chaotic mid-primordial period, during which the Immortal Ascension Cauldron shattered, more than one Ancient Emperor Clans perished, and the few giants who were ultimately forged from this period all showed signs of attaining enlightenment, making it another golden age.
He personally killed the Kunlun Supreme had achieved enlightenment through Alternative Dao Attainment, and turned the ancestor of the Hua Snake Clan into dust. He was incredibly powerful and Invincible One in that period of ancient history.
Having fought his way through turbulent times, this emperor, whose invincible spirit was forged by countless bones, also shaped his domineering personality. He soared above the world, looking down on everyone else.
"He barely reached the Great Completion stage. That Chaos Body from the Mythological Era was just as arrogant, calling himself the Heavenly Mandate. His end wasn't good; all the beings associated with him were slaughtered by the Wuliang." The Kun Emperor murmured, his face cold and his words harsh.
This Great Ancient Emperor was not unaware that Su Yu possessed a celestial artifact and had the assistance of Gai Jiuyou and others, posing a significant threat. However, his inner pride did not allow him to back down, so he naturally responded forcefully, exuding a fierce aura.
Telling the world about myths is a warning. The cultivation world is clearly divided into black and white, and the plight of the defeated is extremely tragic. Many people know that Wang Bo, with his eighth-level cultivation, severely injured the ancient Heavenly Venerable and almost created an eternal myth.
But no one knows what happened after his death. His relatives, teachers, and confidantes were all annihilated by the soul of the Boundless Heavenly Venerable, his sect was destroyed, and his body was used to refine an array plate as an artifact for attempting to become Road to Immortality. It was truly a tragic end...
"You're already angry?" Su Yu murmured, a slight smirk appearing on his handsome face.
He leaped into the sky, standing atop the ninth heaven. His sword embryo burst forth with celestial light, bathed in crimson mist, radiating the most dazzling light of tribulation, dark red and captivating. A wisp of his gaze looked down upon the floating light, the melody of Immortal Tribulation danced and moved, countless Dao Flower bloomed, the Chaos Dao Fruit froze time, and the Chaos Corpse were forced to retreat continuously. His domineering aura was beginning to emerge, and no tribulation or hardship could stop him.
The gods and demons could not replicate his physique, and he was also empowered by the power of the immortal plant, making him even stronger than an ordinary Chaos Body. However, the corresponding insights into swordsmanship were difficult to reproduce, so after Su Yu used the Immortal Tribulation Method, the situation quickly turned one-sided.
"Roar..."
The bleeding corpses roared, their roar Star Shattering, but a fierce sword aura met them. In an instant, blood light cascaded down like a waterfall, and all the millstones exploded, transforming into the most dazzling storm of light and rain. Destructive waves swept across the sky and shook the universe.
With a single sword strike annihilating the corpses, Su Yu stood atop the Chaos Sea, his eyes clear and bright, confidently declaring, " My Dao Fruit is flawless, my destiny has come to an end. Today, even if I were to be Wuliang, I would still kill without hesitation. Using myths and ancient history to intimidate me is useless. Black Kun, you are no match for me!"
The Kun Emperor's face immediately turned cold. He recalled the scene of Su Yu attacking him with the incomplete Immortal Ascension Cauldron, and a chilling killing intent emanated from his eyes. He said, "You think you can defeat me? In a battle of sublimation, what is this so-called Alternative Dao Attainment enlightenment? I've killed countless ants before."
"Boom!"
In the arena, gods and demons shattered, and the Dao Venerable Tribulation emerged. Nine ancient Daoist temples appeared within the tribulation, their auras growing increasingly terrifying. The figures on them became real and tangible, sitting upright on cloud platforms, their divine might overwhelming, their extreme Dao aura filling the sky and making people's hearts tremble.
"Sizzle!"
Su Yu, carrying the sword embryo, strode forward. With a flick of his sleeve, four beams of immortal light pierced through the sky and the earth, instantly unleashing a terrifying aura in the Human Realm, fierce and sharp, as if it wanted to kill all living beings.
As the Lingbao Sword and Diagram appeared, four dark red Killing Sword, each no more than three inches in size, floated and sank in Su Yu's palm, absorbing Chaos light and shining together with the ancient array diagram.
" The Emperor Zun once broke through this formation head-on. You attained enlightenment during the Age of Divine Wars, so you should have seen the flawless Immortal Ascension Cauldron. Do you dare to enter the formation?" Su Yu said calmly and lightly.
The crimson phoenix pattern spread across his hand, and three beams of Immortal Qi intertwined, stabilizing the area and shielding the aura of the Lingbao Formation Diagram, allowing him to act unaffected during the great calamity.
Kun Emperor's expression turned cold, his eyes flickering uncertainly. In the end, he was still wary of the name of Lingbao Heavenly Venerable and did not agree. His divine sense detected two auras not far away, which should be Gai Jiuyou and Chuan Ying.
He was indeed warlike, but not a reckless fool. If he were caught in the Lingbao Killing Formation and surrounded and killed by three people, he would definitely ruin his reputation for Lifetime.
Moreover, this time is different. The main force has transformed into a dragon, possessing both Chaos Body and the supreme inheritance of the ancient era, making it absolutely a threat to him.
This is also why the Kun Emperor treated Su Yu differently.
If the provocateur were anyone else, he wouldn't even bother with words; he would simply kill the disobedient to the point of bloodshed. That's what happened to Ning Fei last time; he was completely suppressed by him, and if someone hadn't come to his rescue, his demise would have been inevitable.
The emperor must not be insulted, and the dignity of those who have attained enlightenment must not be taken lightly—this is the consensus within the Dark Forbidden Zone.
"Afraid to enter the formation? It seems you understand you're no match for the Emperor Zun. Is this what you call invincible? Hahaha." Su Yu laughed, pointing his sword at the Great Ancient Emperor, displaying a blood-stained brilliance.
His words were harsh, yet truthful, bluntly shattering the invincible spirit of the Ancient Supreme.
The Dao is invincible, one can be called Di Huang, reigning supreme over the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Even if one were to cut off one's own life, one would still remain aloof. But this is nothing but empty talk. On the path to becoming emperor, some have gone even further.
"Youngster, how many years have you lived? How dare you speak of the mythical era?" The Divine Kun Emperor's face was gloomy, patterns appeared on his armor, and his aura grew increasingly cold.
His heart was sinking, and his Daoist beliefs were wavering. This was not caused by Su Yu, but by his recollection of Lingbao Heavenly Venerable.
As Great Ancient Emperor, he had never faced Emperor Zun directly and did not think he was weaker than that Ancient Heavenly Court master. However, the return of the remnant spirit of the Lingbao Heavenly Venerable against all odds brought him too much shock.
With a single sword strike, he repelled the Heaven-reaching Nether Treasure and easily slaughtered those who had ascended to the Supreme. This was clearly a power that surpassed the ultimate Dao and was above all emperors.
If the Sword Sovereign was like this, then the Emperor Zun who broke through the Lingbao Killing Formation head-on was clearly no easy opponent either. Forging immortal artifacts, being revered by all emperors, and having all the gods and spirits of the heavens worship the Lord of the Heavenly Court... too many things prove that one person's transcendence.
"Having survived by committing suicide, you dare to flaunt your imperial status in front of me?"
Su Yu's eyes opened and closed, his body's Xuan Palace expanded, his muscles flowed with Immortal Qi, and with a sword across the sky, he immediately inscribed nine Chaos runes, sealing time and space, stabilizing the Great Qian, with a grand sound like the roaring and rushing of the River of Time.
Nearby, the main road was in disarray, the vast ocean was blurred, and everything seemed to have ceased to exist, having been plunged into the Chaotic Ancient Era sea and completely overturned.
"Kill!"
With a long roar, the Divine Kun Emperor unleashed a burst of dark golden light from his hand. A Dragon-Patterned Black Gold battle spear with Black Dragon patterns shattered the Nine Heavens, transforming into a black dragon that defied the firmament. The Supreme power spread, overturning the galaxy and causing the dark universe to tremble. This was a devastating force.
The River of Time exploded open, abruptly severed by the Imperial Black Dragon, causing vast swathes of the starry sky to collapse—a truly terrifying sight.
The battle has finally begun, both unexpectedly and logically for many.
The arrival of the giant from the Primordial Ancient Mine represents an attitude that is by no means benevolent.
The Divine Kun Emperor originally intended to look down on Su Yu from a superior position, and even wanted to plant a seed in Su Yu to break his Dao heart.
Even the most brilliant geniuses are powerless against the passage of time. Their present is Su Yu's future; all those who achieve enlightenment must face that final blow.
In the past, it was usually the elderly who attained enlightenment who voluntarily entered the forbidden zones, but there were also a few Supreme who were invited into the forbidden zones.
This time, the Divine Kun Emperor appeared with a life-or-death decision.
Unfortunately, this newcomer was too arrogant; unable to achieve survival, he was left with only a dead end.
"Daring to challenge Ancient Emperor at the sixth level of the Heavenly Realm? There's no record of that in history books..."
In a Void, Chuan Ying, carrying a hard bow, witnessed the great battle of the extreme paths. His expression was full of emotion, and a strange look appeared in his eyes.
He arrived very early and overheard what Su Yu said, especially the part about the Emperor Zun breaking through the Shangqing Killing Formation, which deeply moved him and reminded him of the glorious and illustrious Mythical Heavenly Court.
Beside him, Gai Jiuyou Daoyan Immortal Robe and wielding the Divine Mark Purple Gold Battle Halberd, his eyes sharp and fixed on two afterimages in the Chaos, poised to strike...
Amidst the crimson thunder tide, the Dao light cascaded like a waterfall, causing the starry sky to collapse. Countless divine orbits went awry, and darkness emitted a terrifying cracking sound before exploding and destroying everything. The Daoist temple complex above the Nine Heavens floated and sank, becoming increasingly profound and ancient. The Dao Venerable imprints of the seated deities within gradually became clearer, emanating a terrifying and overwhelming aura.
"You originally had 20,000 years to reign supreme, but now it's all gone. Today is your death day!" Kun Emperor, his eyes icy cold, his blood aura soaring to the sky, his killing intent undisguised and incomparably powerful. His ultimate battle spear swept across the battlefield, and with a single strike, space and time exploded, unleashing unparalleled terror.
His methods were extremely violent. The dark gold spear was divided into nine sections, each section crystal clear and more dazzling than the most exquisite black gemstone. As the spear moved horizontally, thick spear energy shattered the Great Dao, as if traversing the primordial universe and condensing the Primordial Desolation of heaven and earth. At this moment, he seemed to be creating the world. Water light, wind light, earth light, and water light all moved together, causing the sword embryo to tremble continuously.
After a deafening roar, the thunderous surge exploded, cracks appeared directly in the misty land, and this ancient land was completely destroyed, leaving nothing behind. The starlight dimmed, and only Eternal darkness remained.
" Dao Passing!"
The Immortal Tribulation Sword Embryo flew horizontally, its patterns lifelike, as if it were about to come back to life. Su Yu's hair danced in the air, and he let out a shout, roaring the Sun-Moon, as he engaged in a fierce battle with the Great Ancient Emperor.
In an instant Bronze Flowers of Time fell, condensing into a giant handprint of time. With a single strike, the heavens and earth shattered, and countless galaxies exploded, becoming a place of annihilation.
The two had now fought to the Cosmic Frontier, escaping their previous battlefield, their boundless tide of destruction sweeping across even more distant star systems.
In the terrifying beam of light, the sea of stars burned, and that galaxy became a sea of fire, because all the celestial bodies struck by this earth-shattering blow were shattered and burned fiercely.
This is an incredibly terrifying scene: a star field has become a thing of the past, utterly ravaged!
After a fleeting moment of brilliance, there is boundless darkness. That place also becomes a land of destruction, leaving only ashes, which turn into dust and float in the dark universe.
As the endless lines of time descended, the Kun Emperor, wielding his battle spear, froze, his eyes filled with shock and rage, affected by the laws of time.
"Clang!"
As the sword's cry faded, a dark red sword embryo cleaved through the heavens and the universe, shattering all spirits, and cleaved straight down, intending to destroy the Ancient Emperor's Immortal Platform and commit murder.
"Break!"
The Divine Kun Emperor roared, its body glowing, and countless divine rays burst forth from its crown, carrying boundless light. Scenes from the past appeared, vast and boundless.
Time has left its mark, and the ancient light and shadow are fragmented and complex. A giant Kun rises from the Star Ruins, battles all powerful enemies, and finally ascends to the supreme position, becoming invincible in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, with all races submitting to it, reaching the pinnacle of glory.
Divine energy spread out, a colossal Kun roared across the sky, and countless souls appeared behind it, all of them were defeated geniuses on the path to becoming emperors, their arrogance overwhelming.
The black Kun roared fiercely, carrying the vast and ancient spirit of the Dao era. In an instant, divine power surged, terrifying beyond compare. This was the only Divine Form condensed by the Great Ancient Emperor, a fusion of extraordinary phenomena, an unparalleled Dharma form sealed in the past, possessing an invincible power.
Adorned with golden spots, the Kun fish transforms into a giant fish that swims across the Northern Sea, traversing the four seas and directly breaking through the shackles of the laws of time, displaying an aura of Reign Over All Under Heaven.
Su Yu repelled his opponent with a single sword strike, his True Phoenix Wings swirling with Order Divine Chains behind him. He traversed millions of light-years in an instant, his speed reaching its peak, a feat worthy of praise even among the Extreme Dao Supreme.
"Nothing special. He's no match for the Emperor Zun, the Undying, or even the God Emperor or the Azure Emperor." He commented casually, his expression calm, even though his fingers and palms were bleeding from the shock and his sword embryo almost detached.
"Those you're talking about are all dead; only the living are real!" The Divine Kun Emperor's eyes flashed sharply. Stepping on his Dharma form, he instantly performed a spatial teleportation that transcended star domains. This universe was nothing more than a lake to him, which he could easily cross.
His tone was icy, and his once wavering Dao heart remained steadfast.
What good is the dead, no matter how strong they are? They are nothing but a pile of bones; only the living can control the fate of the Nine Heavens.
Chapter 658 Sublimation of Gloom, Heavenly Heart
As long as he Ultimate Sublimation, with the Heavenly Heart Dao Law empowering him, he will remain invincible in the world, capable of killing even those with Chaos Body or those Alternative Dao Attainment —this is a unique faith technique of his that cannot be altered by external factors.
The Dark Gold True Dragon in the sea of stars, unleashing a billion lotus flowers of order. The internal law patterns resembled interconnected lotus leaves, arranged in sequence, and burst forth with overwhelming pressure.
"Sizzle!"
The Kun Emperor's long black hair stood on end, and streaks of immortal light swirled around his body. His fingers were covered in dark crystal frost, and each swing of his divine spear was powerful and unrestrained, making him seem like an invincible Battle Immortal immortal. Every move he made was a divine will, terrifying beyond compare.
"Puff!"
Sword energy surged like a sea, with resounding clangs echoing endlessly. Suddenly, a burst of brilliant, seven-colored blood splattered, piercing Su Yu's left arm and unleashing a cluster of dazzling light. But he paid no heed. With a tremor of his sword embryo, countless Daoist techniques merged into one, and the Chaos laws, burning to their zenith, evolved, cleaving through space and time with the light of Xian Dao.
Kun Emperor's eyes narrowed, and he subconsciously wanted to retreat, but the Chaos Dao was like a series of venomous snakes, quickly spreading to the Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon. The seven-colored divine blood that the war spear was soaked in was glowing, intertwining into intricate patterns, sealing the gods and locking the mind, representing the fate of its fall.
The nine-sectioned war spear, engraved with ancient divine runes, trembled, its inner deities roaring and bursting forth with the most dazzling divine flames. The Divine Kun Emperor's gaze was cold; with a tremor of his arm, he intended to snap Su Yu's arm in two.
