Pinnacle Experts Spill Blood, the Divine Court's Destruction Draws Near
Rumble-
A tremendous explosion shook the land for ten thousand li.
Ripples of black-and-gold power burst forth and spread in every direction.
What left everyone dumbfounded
was that the Golden Crow manifested by the Quasi-Emperor weapon had lasted less than a moment
before the Ghost God Sky Piercer pierced its body.
The fierce, overwhelming Power of the Ghost God instantly ground away countless blazing, tyrannical golden divine flames!
The majestic, wondrous Golden Crow let out a mournful, piercing cry,
then vanished completely, dissipating between heaven and earth.
Lu Ling sighed in despair and closed his eyes.
The Ghost God Sky Piercer then cleaved down and killed him.
The phenomenon faded.
Gasping for breath, Lü Yifei staggered back to Gu Xuanjin's side.
Lü Yifei gave a bitter smile. "I've disappointed you, Divine Son. I..."
"It's fine."
Gu Xuanjin waved a hand, paying it no mind.
He then tossed Lü Yifei a translucent, fragrant ninth-transformation healing pill.
Lu Ling had been the most talented of the Golden Crow Clan's princes.
His strength had been formidable.
He had also been deeply favored by the Demon Emperor, who had given him a Quasi-Emperor weapon for protection.
With so little difference between them,
Lü Yifei had already done very well to kill him.
Fighting and slaughter raged throughout the Myriad Demon Divine Court.
At the edge of this chaotic battlefield,
three or four young-looking men of ordinary cultivation were behaving rather strangely.
They held brushes and scribbled in their booklets,
seemingly recording something.
Judging by their clothes, they appeared to be information gatherers from the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion.
"Tsk, tsk."
"This divine son of the Gu Clan is unbelievably strong. Incredible, truly incredible!"
"At the Heaven-Reaching Realm, he killed two marquis-ranked experts, a Saint King, and two Supremes!"
"And not one of them was ordinary. They were all geniuses from the Demon Race's major powers!"
"But before this divine son of the Gu Clan, I doubt anyone would dare call themselves a genius!"
Gu Xuanjin sat high in the void,
like a forbidden immortal king looking on with indifference as winds and clouds swept across the world.
The brutal battle continued below.
Besides Gu Beimo and the others,
Lü Yifei had also joined in, tempering himself in the blood and fire of battle.
The fluctuations of battle coming from beyond the ninth heaven grew increasingly intense.
Some were even blasted from the clouds into the earth,
only to return beyond the ninth heaven and fight on despite their grievous injuries.
The melee among the Great Emperors seemed to have reached a fever pitch.
The pressure emanating from deep in the starry sky also grew more overwhelming.
Many of the stars that filled the night sky were struck out of existence.
The starry sky looked empty.
One could imagine how fierce and tragic the fighting was.
Three days later.
At noon.
The fairly bright, clear sky suddenly grew dark and oppressive.
Lightning flashed ceaselessly, and thunder rumbled without end.
Furious winds rose on all sides, and blood rained down in torrents!
The Heavenly Dao grieved, and the world was desolate!
In an instant, all of heaven and earth sank into boundless sorrow.
Across the Three Thousand Dao Domains,
whether novices who had just begun cultivating
or peerless experts who had already reached the pinnacle,
everyone was shocked!
Heaven and earth grieved together; a Great Emperor had fallen!
And this was a complete death, with his Dao extinguished.
No one who proved their Dao and became a Great Emperor was ordinary.
They had all endured countless hardships and turned the tables from desperate straits in countless places of mortal peril,
fighting for that sliver of a chance to be reborn from the flames and ascend to the summit.
Moreover, those who cultivated to the Great Emperor realm had already completed the construction of their inner worlds.
Even if they could not win,
they could escape into their inner worlds, where no one could do anything to them.
Yet a Great Emperor had indeed been killed.
How could anyone find that easy to believe?
And what was even more shocking
was that this Great Emperor's fall seemed to have set off a chain reaction.
In the days that followed, Great Emperors fell one after another!
For more than ten days in succession,
blood poured down without pause across the entire Xuanhuan Great World.
The void itself seemed to carry the mourning of Gods and Devils and the lamentations of immortals.
Nearly a month after the Gu Clan descended upon the Myriad Demon Divine Court,
the battle finally neared its end.
The Myriad Demon Divine Court was now
a wasteland of broken walls and ruins.
Blood flowed in rivers, and corpses littered the ground. The scene was unimaginably brutal, like a shura purgatory!
The Demon Race army, which had once seemed impossible to kill off, had been slaughtered to the last.
Under the crushing assault,
the Gu Clan's four elite armies, including the Divine Martial Guard, had suffered losses as well,
but they were practically negligible.
Beyond the ninth heaven,
of the spectacular battle that had once involved over a hundred Great Emperors,
only three peerless Peak Great Emperor experts from the Gu Clan remained,
besieging the Myriad Demon Divine Court's last Great Emperor, Demon Emperor Lu Jue!
Lu Jue drove the Demon Emperor Bell to its limit.
As its toll rippled outward, it instantly obliterated the terrifying divine abilities coming at him.
Seeing this,
the Gu Clan's Peak Great Emperor experts who had finished their own battles
also joined this final fight, one after another.
Even with Lu Jue's invincible divine might, he could not withstand the combined assault of so many Peak Great Emperor experts.
Before long,
even the Demon Emperor Bell was shattered, its countless fragments scattering across the world!
Lu Jue refused to accept it, his face filled with madness.
Seeing that the Myriad Demon Divine Court's cause was lost and its defeat sealed, he no longer had any desire to cling to life.
Lu Jue let out a furious roar
and set himself ablaze.
The World-Burning Golden Flame swept across countless layers of the void, turning the horizon into a golden sea of fire!
The expressions of all the Gu Clan's Great Emperors changed.
Each used their own methods to block the golden divine flames that burned heaven and destroyed the world.
Although the World-Burning Golden Flame was one of the fiercest and most powerful divine flames under heaven,
fortunately, Lu Jue was already a spent force.
Even now, using his own essence to kindle it,
the World-Burning Golden Flame he unleashed only gave the Gu Clan's Great Emperors some trouble.
That was all.
It was nowhere near enough to threaten their lives.
When Lu Jue's essence burned out,
a Demon Emperor of his generation fell.
The battle beyond the ninth heaven was over!
Several of the Gu Clan's twelve peerless Peak Great Emperor experts were seriously injured,
but not one had fallen.
Yet when those ordinary Great Emperors faced the Demon Race Great Emperors' desperate final struggles,
several had unfortunately fallen.
Even so,
having completely wiped out the Great Emperors sent by the Myriad Demon Divine Court, Divine Firmament Mountain,
and the other three top Demon Race powers,
it could be considered worthwhile.
Deep in the starry sky,
the carefree, unbridled Gu Suizhi and the aloof, peerless Gu Qingyou
fought three opponents between them inside the Primordial Heaven Supreme Simplicity Diagram and Book.
With its suppression aiding them, the two faced three immortal weapons with ease and held the upper hand.
Yet they found it difficult to kill the three.
A delicate balance had formed.
As for the Divine Firmament Mountain Demon Ancestor, the Golden Crow Demon Ancestor, and the former Demon Emperor of the Myriad Demon Divine Court,
their ultimate imperial weapons had been shattered by Gu Suizhi only a few days after the battle began.
Half a month ago, Gu Suizhi had destroyed their bodies and annihilated their souls, erasing them from the world.
Gu Suizhi had fought three alone and slain them with overwhelming force, displaying his tyrannical, invincible might.
He had stunned all the experts watching the battle across the starry sky!
Meanwhile, Gu Qingyou had brought the Great Dao of Creation to its utmost,
ending her battle even before Gu Suizhi.
The White Bone Demon Ancestor of Ten-Thousand-Li Cloud and Mist Ridge had lasted less than ten days against her before perishing.
A woman possessed such terrifying combat strength as well!
That too had left the experts watching from the shadows deeply shaken.
Seeing that only he remained,
the Five Rampancies Monastery Demon Ancestor, who could barely hold on, grew even more frantic and anxious.
If I'd known the Myriad Demon Divine Court was this useless,
I never should have waded into these muddy waters!
