Devouring countless living beings, despair! A clean retreat? He strikes!

"Roar!!"

The Immortal Source shattered, and imperial might surged!

Towering killing intent swept outward from Fallen Immortal Star!

The two Supremes emerged without concealing themselves at all!

They stepped out of Chaotic God Mountain, their bodies seeming vast enough to hold up heaven and earth, looming over all living beings!

The moment they emerged.

Golden-Furred Hou and the other Supreme immediately turned their eyes, filled with wariness, toward the Immortal Court Forbidden Land where Lu Qingyun resided.

Upon finding no movement there whatsoever, their hearts settled somewhat.

Then...

The slaughter began!!

Countless living beings wailed, mountains and rivers shattered, and stars dimmed.

The vicious, baleful presence soaring into the heavens alerted not only all of Fallen Immortal Star, but the entire universe.

Supremes had walked out of a forbidden zone and were about to unleash... a Dark Turmoil!

"Let's go, to where the true feast awaits."

Golden-Furred Hou looked across the vast regions of Fallen Immortal Star, a trace of greed showing in his eyes.

But he restrained the greed in his heart.

He did not strike on Fallen Immortal Star.

For one thing, this planet was covered in Extreme Dao powers.

Although, to him, even an awakened Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon could not contend with him.

But they had not come out to wage war.

They were merely harvesting life essence to extend their lifespans. Fighting a great battle was truly unnecessary.

Besides... they were uncertain.

If they slaughtered every living being on Fallen Immortal Star right before Lu Qingyun's eyes, would that man who called himself the lord of a forbidden zone make a move?

They dared not gamble, nor did they need to.

In the entire universe... there was no other place as terrifying as Fallen Immortal Star.

But the number of living beings and races elsewhere was only greater!

When Supremes traveled, they were no less imposing than Ancient Great Emperors!

After all, before entering the forbidden zones, they had themselves been Extreme Dao existences who ruled the universe for an era!

After seeing those two Supremes leave without looking back.

The people of the many holy lands and ancient clans, who had already awakened their ancestral reserves and fully revived their Emperor Weapons, all breathed sighs of relief.

Yet the terror on their faces lingered.

An old Saint's eyes filled with pity as he lamented, "With a Heavenly Emperor in this world, Supremes have actually emerged to harvest living beings as great medicines! What an irony!"

"Watch your words! An emperor is not someone we can discuss lightly!"

Someone's face went pale, and he hurriedly shouted for him to stop.

After all, whatever that Chaos Heavenly Emperor intended, his strength was undeniably real.

Besides, the reason those two Supremes had not attacked Fallen Immortal Star.

Was very likely because that Heavenly Emperor was here.

But... though Fallen Immortal Star had escaped disaster, the other life-bearing stars would probably...

Despair, anguished cries...

Across the universe, vast swathes of brilliant starfields went utterly dark.

Even their starlight was devoured completely by those two Supremes!

Blood stained one life-bearing star after another red. Many powerful cultivators sealed within Divine Source.

Were discovered in their slumber.

All their life essence was devoured, and they died violent deaths on the spot!

In the starry universe, a powerful Quasi-Emperor let out an unwilling roar. Holding a great cauldron cast from crimson flame divine metal, he unleashed his strongest strike at Golden-Haired Hou Supreme after finding himself unable to escape!

That strike was enough to tear apart a starfield, as though it would pierce the entire universe!

But to a Supreme...

"Laughable! How dare an ant try to shake the heavens!"

Golden-Haired Hou Supreme's indifferent eyes were filled with coldness as he faced that Quasi-Emperor's all-out strike.

He merely reached out and seized him!

Then he stuffed him into his mouth. The lifetime Dao Fruit of a powerful Quasi-Emperor who had roamed the universe became the richest life essence, causing many of the life markings within the Sea of Bitterness in his body to fade.

The fall of a Quasi-Emperor was merely an unremarkable interlude in this tragedy.

During a Dark Turmoil, the only thing all living beings could hope for was for the reigning Great Emperor to act!

Had this been the past, with no Great Emperor taking action.

They could only blame their bad luck: no Extreme Dao Great Emperor capable of making the forbidden zones wary had appeared in that era.

But in this era, a Great Emperor had clearly been born!

And he was a Chaos Heavenly Emperor who had attained the Dao with a Chaos Body!

Yet such a tragedy... had still happened!

Countless living beings wept, prayed, and called upon Lu Qingyun's exalted title, hoping to see a thread of hope.

On a vast, majestic purple planet.

An old Saint with purple blood flowing through his veins and an overbearing presence soaring around him smiled disdainfully.

"So what if he has a Chaos Body?"

"If not for its slightly stronger origin, the title of the universe's greatest physique should belong to our race's Tyrant Body!"

"He attained the Dao, yet fears the Supremes and dares not act. Meanwhile, our Tyrant Body Ancestral Star has no defensive measures whatsoever, but the Supremes still dare not invade!"

"This... is the difference!"

And while this old Tyrant Body Saint was having a mental orgasm.

This Dark Turmoil was also nearing its end...

Golden-Haired Hou Supreme and the other Supreme, whose enormous body resembled a small mountain, gathered once more.

They glanced at the Tyrant Body Ancestral Star revolving in the starry universe, their voices carrying greed and delight.

"That lineage has produced another fully accomplished one."

"Heh-that presence really does make it hard to hold back. As renowned as the Sacred Body, yet its flesh and blood... are even more delicious than a Sacred Body's. Unfortunately, we can't harvest it yet..."

"It's nearly time. When we unleash the next large-scale Dark Turmoil, we'll be able to taste it..."

"Hopefully, they'll produce another one by then. Otherwise... there won't quite be enough to share."

The two Supremes now brimmed with enough life essence to seal themselves in Immortal Source for another ten thousand years.

And just as they prepared to return to the forbidden zone and seal themselves away again, carrying such abundant life essence.

Within the Immortal Court on Fallen Immortal Star.

A white-robed figure raised his head. His gaze seemed to pierce the entire universe and land directly upon them!

That gaze seemed to say...

You've finally eaten your fill. Then next... let me finish things.

In an instant, an unseen, overwhelming terror of life and death put them on alert!

They instinctively looked toward Fallen Immortal Star.

Upon meeting that gaze, their scalps instantly prickled, and their expressions changed abruptly!

"This is bad! That bastard Lu Qingyun wants to pluck the peaches!!"

Golden-Furred Hou shouted, instantly transforming into a streak of golden light as he fled toward the Cosmic Frontier!

The other Supreme likewise paled, choosing a direction entirely different from his.

And at that very moment.

Lu Qingyun moved.

He stepped forward, entering the starry universe in a single stride!

His presence locked firmly onto Golden-Haired Hou Supreme alone!

"Fuck!"

"Why are you chasing me!!?"

Golden-Haired Hou Supreme was so terrified that his soul nearly scattered. He had never expected to be this unlucky.

Out of two choices, he had been picked.

But he soon regained his composure. After all, he had once been an ancient emperor.

Although he knew that, in terms of combat strength, he could not rival Lu Qingyun even through Ultimate Sublimation, his ability to flee and preserve his life was extremely strong.

Otherwise, he could never have survived Lu Qingyun's hands last time.

Besides, before emerging, he had already anticipated that this might happen.

Thus, he had inscribed Heaven-Deceiving Formation Patterns on nearly a hundred places across his body, enough to conceal all traces of his movements.

Until he returned safely to Chaotic God Mountain.

Only...

For all his calculations, he had overlooked one thing.

Back then, before becoming a Great Emperor, Lu Qingyun had fought seven Supremes alone!

Even then, his combat strength had rivaled an ordinary Great Emperor's.

And now, not only had he undergone a true Great Emperor Tribulation, but he had also spent centuries comprehending immortal scriptures within the forbidden land.

Now... his combat strength had reached a terrifying level that even he himself could not gauge!

"Heaven-Deceiving Formation Patterns? Heh-how could this heaven and earth compare to me?"

Lu Qingyun stood peerless in white.

He chuckled softly, treading upon the chaos great Dao. With one stride, he crossed dozens of starfields.

Heaven and earth, space, time-it was as though everything obeyed his commands.

In an instant, the distance between him and Golden-Haired Hou Supreme was halved!
