So What If They Were Great Emperors at the Same Level? I Am Utterly Invincible in This Realm (4.2K)
Those four Dao Body were not simply creations of lightning, but rather the most glorious and primordial Dao imprints left by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth in the long River of Time and Space, carved from the tomb of the Supreme Being of the Extreme Dao during his youth, in response to the heaven-defying prodigy!
Their appearance is no longer a simple punishment, but more like a ritual, an ultimate trial that can only be initiated by potential individuals "recognized" by Ancient Emperor Great Emperor- level beings, a trial that is both glorious and deadly!
The first Dao Body was shrouded in a hazy glow and chaotic atmosphere. Her figure was graceful and elegant. Although her true appearance could not be seen, a natural sense of compassion and majesty, as if she were the mother of the world and had the power to benefit all living beings, was revealed.
Her entire being was in harmony with the Great Dao, with innate energy circulating endlessly. It was as if she were standing on a miniature pure land, where immortals bloomed, Divine Spring gurgled, and the life force was so rich that it could not be dissolved, purifying all the violent thunder around her.
She represents the Mother of the Great Dao, the manifestation of the supreme Dao traces that the Western Emperor suppressed an era!
The second Dao Body, with his back to all living beings, was as majestic as a mountain. Even just his back view gave people an aura of supreme power that could suppress the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and reign supreme over all the cycles of reincarnation.
He seemed to stand at the beginning of time, yet also at the end of years, emanating the true meaning of " Wu Shi," making all laws and rules seem insignificant before him.
It was as if even the River of Time and Space slowed down and almost froze because of his existence. This was the invincible mark of the Great Emperor Wushi, who proved his Dao with " Wu Shi " and swept across an era!
The third Dao Body immense power and energy, like a cosmic furnace in full bloom, its scorching aura causing the surrounding Void to distort and melt.
With every gesture he made, the phantom of Immortal Phoenix circled and cried out, while the faint outline of the Hengyu Divine Furnace floated behind him, its mouth spewing out inextinguishable divine fire that could burn away all heavens and forge Eternal.
This is the Emperor Hengyu, who, having created a self-made human universe, derived Dao spirits, and proved his Dao through constant and indestructible power. His fierce and domineering fighting spirit has revived an era!
The fourth Dao Body was the most unique; he seemed to be one with the entire Void, his form sometimes clear and sometimes blurry, like a mirage.
His gaze was not as disdainful or domineering as the previous three; instead, it carried a deep sense of compassion and resolve.
Beneath his feet lay piles of white bones and an endless scene of Dark Turmoil, but behind him, the lights of countless homes shone brightly.
The prayers and aspirations of hundreds of millions of people are converging, forming an inextinguishable protective light.
This is the indelible mark of the Void Emperor, who fought a lifetime of bloody battles for the human race and whose bones were buried in a foreign land!
" The Great Emperor is the Humanoid Lightning from the youth of Ancient Great Emperor!"
"Our progenitor! That's our Jade Pool's progenitor, the Western Emperor!"
Some of the female disciples of Jade Pool were so moved that tears welled up in their eyes, and they couldn't help but kneel down. This was a resonance and reverence stemming from their inheritance and the lineage of Daoism.
" The Great Emperor Wushi, the Emperor Hengyu, the Void Emperor, my god, four of them, the marks of four Ancient Great Emperor manifested at the same time!"
Is this... is this really the Immortal Platform Tribulation?
Ancient texts have never recorded this, and even when the Great Emperor was young, there was rarely a precedent of triggering so many Dao traces from beings of the same level!
The old man's voice was hoarse, and his whole body trembled with excitement, as if he had witnessed the birth of a myth.
Throughout the entire Jade Pool Holy Land, from disciples to elders, everyone felt a tremor deep in their souls and an indescribable sense of glory.
The very fact that it could trigger such a calamity signifies the terrifying potential of the one undergoing the tribulation, indicating that they have received the ultimate "recognition" from the unseen, eternal Dao.
But this approval comes with a deadly trap with no chance of survival!
The Queen Mother of the West's exquisite face was filled with unprecedented solemnity. Her jade-like hands unconsciously gripped the rough trunk of the Ancient Peach Tree beside her, her fingertips turning slightly white from the force.
As the current leader of the Western Emperor's lineage and bearing the inheritance of the " Western Emperor Scripture," she could feel more clearly than anyone else how profound and vast the traces of the Western Emperor's Dao were!
That was not merely power, but an absolute suppression of a life level, an ultimate interpretation of the Great Dao, of Fortune, and of the essence of the universe's birth and death.
She asked herself honestly, if time could be reversed and it were her who was undergoing the Immortal Platform Tribulation back then, she would have no chance of survival against any one of the Emperor's shadows, let alone four of them appearing at the same time!
"Can the Holy Son really stop him?" Saintess Lin Qingyao's voice trembled slightly, her pearly teeth biting her red lips, her beautiful eyes filled with worry and tension.
Faced with four young Great Emperor who symbolize the pinnacle of humanity, any prodigy would feel their own insignificance and powerlessness.
In the center of the Thunder Sea, the chaotic energy and the elements of earth, fire, wind, and water temporarily subsided due to the appearance of the Great Emperor Shadows, as if paying tribute to these strongest beings throughout the ages.
Li Qingshan stood alone among them, his purple robes tattered and torn, revealing his powerful divine body, covered with scorch marks and cracks, dripping with blood. Yet his spine remained ramrod straight, like the backbone supporting the heavens and the earth.
He watched as the four humanoid Humanoid Lightning slowly approached, each radiating an aura of unparalleled dominance throughout the ages, sensing their invincible Dao aura, which was completely different yet equally superior to all the myriad Daos of the heavens.
Far from showing the slightest fear, his divine eyes burst forth with an unprecedentedly brilliant light, a light that contained excitement, fighting spirit, and an arrogant confidence that dared to challenge even the heavens!
"Well done! I have been hoping to use the teachings of you Great Emperor to hone my skills and validate my methods!"
Let's see how far I've come on this journey of rebuilding!
He let out a long roar that shook the universe, and actually took the initiative to attack. His figure transformed into a purple lightning bolt that tore through the sea of lightning, and he was the first to meet the Western Emperor's Humanoid Lightning that had the deepest connection with his lineage!
"Boom!"
The Western Emperor's Humanoid Lightning seemed to sense something, and its hazy face appeared to "glance" in Li Qingshan's direction.
She didn't use any fancy secret techniques; she simply raised her flawless, naturally elegant hands.
With one hand, the Daoist aura spread out, and in an instant, it seemed to drag the entire sea of lightning into absolute icy silence, even freezing the cultivators' souls;
It evolved into a slowly rotating, Yin-Yang -yang millstone that obliterates everything in the world!
The millstone spun, Void groaned under its unbearable weight. The rules of the Great Dao were crushed and reassembled, crushing down on Li Qingshan with an irresistible will!
Li Qingshan's pupils contracted as he felt unprecedented pressure.
However, the Western Emperor Scripture within his body operated autonomously to an unprecedented extreme, causing the Sea of Bitterness to roar, the Golden Lotus to sway in the Bitter Sea, and the five deities in the Dao Palace Secret Realm to simultaneously open their Dao Eyes and chant ancient scriptures in unison.
The chanting of " The Departed Self " transcends time and space, while the radiance of " The Dao Self " illuminates the heavens within the body, together supporting the origin of " The Present Self ".
He also embodied Yin-Yang, unleashing both fists simultaneously, his left hand slicing, drawing upon the Taiyin Divine Force to create a state of utter darkness and stillness;
With his right hand forming a mudra, he draws upon the Solar Sacred Force, unleashing the radiance of life.
However, he did not simply imitate the Western Emperor, but rather incorporated his unique understanding of the "past Departed Self," the " Present Self," and the "future Dao Self " into it, and threw a punch.
It was as if Humanoid Lightning, representing three lifetimes of reincarnation, flowed and alternated on the fist, carrying a destiny power that transcended time and space, fiercely clashing with the crushing Yin-Yang millstone!
"Thump!!!"
Like two ancient stars colliding, or like the first great roar at the Heaven-Opening!
A terrifying energy storm suddenly spread out in a ring from the point of impact, clearing out a brief vacuum zone in the Chaos Thunder Sea within a hundred miles!
Li Qingshan's body trembled violently, as if struck by lightning, and he was sent flying dozens of miles away. Countless bones on his body cracked and spewed out a mouthful of blood containing lightning and fragments of Dao principles.
However, after that attack, his eyes became even brighter, like two burning stars!
Although his direct confrontation with the Western Emperor's Humanoid Lightning left him severely injured, it also caused his understanding of the " Western Emperor Scripture " to deepen and advance at an incredible speed!
Many of the sutra meanings that were not very clear in the Immortal Platform Scroll before became clear at this moment, as if the clouds had parted and the sun had shone through!
He could even sense that the deity representing " the Dao Self " in his Dao Palace had become more solid and its radiance even more dazzling.
But the heavenly tribulation would not give him a chance to catch his breath.
Almost at the same instant he was blasted away by the Western Emperor's Humanoid Lightning, the Great Emperor Wushi's Humanoid Lightning, which had its back to all living beings, moved.
He didn't turn around, but simply casually slapped out a palm in Li Qingshan's direction.
This palm strike was simple and unadorned, without any earth-shattering phenomena, and one could not even sense any particularly powerful fluctuations in strength.
But the instant he struck out with that palm, Li Qingshan felt everything around him change!
The space became as solid as divine iron, firmly imprisoning him in place;
Time seemed to have sunk into a quagmire; his thoughts and his actions slowed down immeasurably.
Even the surging blood and qi and the booming power within his body momentarily froze!
This is the true meaning of " Wu Shi "! The starting point of the power of time, suppressing everything. Immediately afterward, the Humanoid Lightning of Emperor Hengyu also moved. He took a step forward, transforming into a towering furnace of heaven and earth. The furnace walls were imprinted with patterns of sacrifices by all races and the evolution of stars. The furnace mouth spewed out the Hengyu Divine Fire would burn all the heavens. The scorching fist intent was domineering and incomparably fierce, locking onto Li Qingshan, intending to refine him and this Void into ashes!
The most bizarre of all was the Void Emperor's Humanoid Lightning.
He did not attack directly; with a flicker, he completely merged into the Void and disappeared.
But Li Qingshan sensed a cold, resolute killing intent emanating from all directions, from every crack in the Void, omnipresent and all-pervasive, as if in the next instant, a deadly Emperor Fist would strike from any unimaginable angle, aimed directly at his Immortal Platform Origin!
In an instant, Li Qingshan was plunged into an unprecedented bitter battle and desperate situation!
Although the imprints of the four young Great Emperor could not possess the complete wisdom and consciousness of their peak years, the profound meaning of the Great Dao and their fighting instincts they carried were the ultimate manifestation of the deep-seated laws of heaven and earth!
"Roar!"
Li Qingshan let out a long roar like a dragon and an elephant, forcibly circulating the " Western Emperor Scripture " to break through the stagnation brought about by the Wu Shi True Meaning.
He dared not hold back in the slightest, pushing all his knowledge to its limits!
The power of the Divine Eyes erupted in full force. The left eye evolved into the creation of chaos, while the right eye reflected the annihilation of the starry river. The two dazzling Great Emperor lights were like the first ray of light Heaven-Opening, tearing through layers of suppression of the Dao laws, desperately trying to capture the mysterious and unpredictable Dao traces and attack nodes of the four Emperor Shadows.
He moved with his thoughts, pushing his speed to the limit, maneuvering and dodging within a small space to avoid the Burn Heaven and Boil the Sea Fist of Emperor Hengyu, and using exquisite secret techniques to parry and deflect the unpredictable attacks of Void Emperor.
The Nine Secrets: Dou is constantly being refined in this Mad Battle.
His body became his most powerful weapon, the Sea of Bitterness provided an inexhaustible source of life, the Dao Palace chanted scriptures to stabilize his soul, the Four Extremes Heaven-Opening at extreme speed, Dragon Transformation Spine gave him the explosive power to shake the stars.
This was an extremely brutal battle!
Li Qingshan's shirt had long since turned to ashes, his body was constantly being beaten and cracked, and crimson blood and charred bone fragments were flying everywhere, only to be evaporated in the lightning.
His soul was also undergoing terrifying shocks and trials, as if it would shatter at any moment.
But he never gave up!
That unwavering will, rising from humble beginnings, firmly believing in his own invincibility and determined to overcome all obstacles and reach the pinnacle, was like an inextinguishable celestial flame, fueling his ever-growing fighting spirit!
The divine eye's incredible healing ability repeatedly pulled him back from the brink of collapse. His left eye shone with divine light, repairing his injuries, while his right eye pierced through illusions, searching for an opportunity to retaliate.
The boundless vitality provided by the Western Emperor Scripture was like an inexhaustible ocean, supporting him in this war of attrition that pushed him beyond his limits.
He grew stronger and more courageous with each battle!
Under extreme pressure on the verge of life and death, his potential was frantically extracted, and his application of power and understanding of the Great Dao improved rapidly at a visible speed.
His boxing style has become more concise and deadly; his movements have become more elusive and unpredictable; and his path, forged in the baptism of blood and fire, is becoming purer and more resilient!
"Incredible, absolutely incredible!"
An old man from Jade Pool watched with tears streaming down his face and his voice choked with emotion, "The Holy Son is not only fighting against the imprints of the four Great Emperor, but he is also learning, absorbing, and turning the Dao traces of the Great Emperor into his own nourishment!"
Such performance, such resilience, such comprehension—even the progenitor of the Western Emperor in his youth might not have been able to match it!
She had the privilege of glimpsing a few vague records about the Western Emperor's tribulation in his youth in the oldest secret texts of Jade Pool. That record was already astonishingly brilliant, unparalleled among his contemporaries.
But at this moment, watching Li Qingshan being beaten bloody and mangled time and time again under the siege of the Great Emperor Shadows, yet stubbornly rising again and again, and even his Daoist techniques continuing to improve.
Gradually, the situation began to reverse. The young Great Emperor's Humanoid Lightning was repeatedly shattered, and a surge of heroic spirit welled up in Li Qingshan's heart.
So what if Great Emperor of the same rank? I am invincible in this realm.
The old woman of Jade Pool had to admit a fact deep in her heart that shocked even herself.
This holy son, who was exceptionally chosen despite being a man, has already shown a performance that subtly surpasses the descriptions of the young Western Emperor in ancient texts!
The Queen Mother of the West remained silent, but the slight trembling of her sleeves and the undisguised shock and excitement in the depths of her eyes spoke volumes.
She reached the same conclusion.
The combat power, willpower, and potential that Li Qingshan is displaying at this moment are unprecedented and surpass the understanding of the ancestor by the sages of Jade Pool throughout the ages!
This cannot be described by the word "prodigy" alone; this is truly the bearing of an emperor.
It is a terrifying existence capable of competing with the Ancient Emperor's son and various other extraordinary individuals for the sole imperial throne in the future golden age!
Just as everyone in Jade Pool was shocked and excited by Li Qingshan's incredible performance, deep within the Holy Land, the Western Emperor Pagoda also trembled slightly, and a familiar feeling inexplicably arose.
Amidst the sea of lightning, Li Qingshan fought tirelessly, his aura constantly rising in the bloody battle. He had already touched the true threshold of the Immortal Platform Secret Realm, waiting only for the tribulation to end so that he could leap up and look down upon his peers!
However, the four Humanoid Lightning ' attacks became increasingly fierce, their killing intent chilling, as if they would not stop until they completely obliterated this heaven-defying one.
The real test of life and death is yet to come.
