The Fate of Eternal Life

Chapter 197 Shattering the Myth! An Unexpected Situation!

One after another, imperial figures emerged from the boundless chaotic sea of ​​lightning, overlooking the cosmos and galaxies. Each one possessed extraordinary strength, determined to recreate their invincible glory in the mortal realm.

The birth of these emperors, and their struggle for supremacy with the true lineage of future emperors, filled people with both fear and anticipation.

"Far beyond what is recorded in ancient books, an unimaginable tribulation to become a saint! If one doesn't die and manages to overcome it..." one of the young trial participants murmured absentmindedly.

"This is the true prodigy of our human race, not one who contends with the people of this era, but one who will sweep away the strongest overlords of every era throughout history and unleash the strongest invincible spirit!" Some human elders were also extremely excited, watching everything that was happening in the tribulation lightning intently.

The Holy Spirit was silent, the beasts were restless, and everyone cried out in their hearts, anticipating this forbidden battle that could only be seen in mythology!

"Boom!"

The most terrible war has broken out!
Nine young emperor figures descended, with no one-on-one combat; the nine attacked one person, each displaying forbidden techniques!

As soon as the battle began, blood splattered everywhere. Even Ning Qingyi's invincible golden body was shattered when facing the nine Great Emperors.

His shoulder was pierced, his right arm was broken, and a wound ran through his abdomen from front to back... a total of nine wounds, each one dripping with blood. His body flew through the air, covered in blood, and he was almost killed by a human assassination attempt.

However, people fell silent, their expressions changed, and they dared not underestimate him at all; they were so shocked that they could not speak!
Although he was seriously injured, within those few breaths, two of the nine Emperor Shadows were directly shattered and destroyed, disappearing into the Dao!

Some knowledgeable cultivators recognized them: one was the ancient Chaotic Emperor, and the other was the Primordial Emperor from the Primordial Era!
"boom!"

Ning Qingyi used the Nine Harmonies Great Immortal Technique to transform into light and escape from the Emperor's Shadow. He opened his mouth and inhaled, refining the vast chaotic thunder sea into essence. He used the "Zhe" character secret to repair his injuries and coldly stared at the remaining seven Emperor's Shadows in the distance.

At the same time, he noticed that two more celestial palaces in the chaotic sea of ​​thunder were drawing in mysterious energy, trying to trace the mark of the once invincible one.

"what?"

Suddenly, his expression changed. He saw two marks appearing on the surface of his restored golden body, which had been injured by the forbidden techniques of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor and the Primordial Emperor, suppressing his cultivation.

"Is this unprecedented change an attempt to suppress my Dao Fruit by imprinting me with the mark of an emperor?"

Ning Qing frowned; this situation was clearly beyond his expectations.

"It's alright, we can just wipe them out one by one."

"boom!"

With the Nine Harmonies Great Immortal Technique unleashed, his aura surged infinitely, and his combat power continued to penetrate deeper into the legendary forbidden realm, aiming to surpass the will of Heaven!
At the same time, Emperor Ying was also stimulated and stepped into the "Divine Forbidden Zone". His cultivation level continued to rise, aiming to reach the same level as Ning Qing.

However, one of the emperor's figures quickly reached the limit!
This was an invincible supreme being whose origin Ning Qingyi could not identify. It was unknown when it manifested in this star field, and its Dao fruit was imprinted on it by heaven and earth, manifesting during the heavenly tribulation.

However, in the process of continuously increasing his combat power, he was a step behind, and this one step determined the outcome.

"Ninefold Great Immortal Technique! I am the only one who reigns supreme!"

Ning Qing locked onto his target and launched a punch. He descended with the Dao, and the Buddha in his fist overwhelmed the Three Realms and reigned supreme over the Nine Heavens, as if covering the entire universe!
boom!
Seven imperial figures moved in unison, unleashing forbidden techniques: True Dragon Fist, Demon Emperor Nine Slashes, Dao Sword... one forbidden domain after another reappeared in the mortal world, attacking Ning Qingyi.

The Emperor Shadow, who was targeted by Ning Qingyi, also unleashed his own forbidden domain.

One after another, vast worlds appeared, creating sun, moon, mountains, rivers, and all living beings, summoning all the gods and demons to their places, and transforming into layers of seals to suppress Ning Qingyi here.

Everyone's expression changed. Almost in an instant, three thousand, five thousand, seven thousand... countless great worlds manifested. This was a power that created the world, an ancient technique from the mythological era!
This is the Great Emperor! He represents invincibility in heaven and earth; even a mere mark possesses boundless power.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for the result.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."

A series of loud explosions revealed the mystery. Ning Qingyi's divine might was unparalleled. He unleashed a devastating punch, his momentum unstoppable. He shattered countless worlds, and his fist ultimately landed on the emperor's shadow.

boom!
This strike unleashed chaotic energy, turning heaven and earth upside down, shattering the universe, and unleashing boundless divine power. Brilliant light filled the air, like a celestial river pouring down from the heavens, vast and boundless, engulfing the land.

"puff!"

As the Emperor's image shattered, an ancient celestial palace also collapsed within the chaotic sea of ​​lightning!

At the same time, the forbidden techniques of the other six Great Emperors also struck Ning Qingyi, shattering his golden body once more. He coughed up blood incessantly, nearly being cut in half at the waist. Even more terrifying, the two previous marks were still active, affecting him for a moment and worsening his injuries.

But in the end, he managed to dodge out of it, maneuvering rapidly within the Emperor's Shadow, while simultaneously using the "Zhe" secret technique to absorb the collapsing Heavenly Palace and repair his injuries.

At the same time, another mark appeared on his golden body.

"so horrible!"

"I don't believe it. Is this really a manifestation of an ancient emperor? How could it be?"

Some of the trial participants who had embarked on the ancient path had their Dao hearts shattered and could not believe what was happening before their eyes.

The Emperor's brilliance is known throughout the world; he is an unparalleled being, unmatched in heaven and earth, and has created an invincible history!

Now, after two clashes, three imperial figures have been destroyed. Even if we saw it, it would be unacceptable; it's a fantasy!

However, a few people were very clear-headed, mostly the elders on the ancient road. They had long lost their invincible spirit and could see things clearly at this moment.

"No, that's the true aura of an emperor, invincible in heaven and earth, and no one can imitate it," someone sighed.

"It's not as simple as you imagine. This is the most dangerous duel. A single strike contains all the power of the Dao and his invincible will. If he doesn't kill his opponent, he will die in an instant." Someone explained further, but others still wanted to refute it. However, when they saw that the person who spoke was the Great Sage Qinghuang, they were speechless.

He was the most senior and the oldest, holding a revered position on the ancient path of humanity. His words naturally caused a great shock, and many people felt as if their strength had been drained, their energy and spirit dissipated.

"What is this? The invincible myth of a talent appearing only once in a lifetime has been shattered before my eyes! Oh, heavens..." A young prodigy was utterly dejected.

Not only him, but everyone was speechless. When the supreme path that one pursues for a lifetime is shattered before one's eyes, it is nothing short of a collapse of faith!
"Enough!" A cold snort rang out, followed by the old Tyrannosaurus's roar that shook everyone: "This is a battle that will shatter myths and amaze ancient history. How dare you interfere!"

Everyone was shaken; they understood something.

Two emperors cannot coexist in one lifetime. Ancient emperors never met each other and had no rivals throughout their lives. However, today, a battle is about to be fought to determine who is superior. This is the most terrifying touchstone, ranking all emperors with one's own power!
Of course, some disagree, arguing that this merely represents a Great Emperor at the Dao-Slaying Realm, and doesn't signify the ultimate achievement. This is because some Great Emperors didn't initially dominate the world; they grew step by step, defeating opponents one by one, ultimately reaching the pinnacle.

Regardless, everyone who looked at Ning Qingyi's figure showed deep awe.

Because some people can become emperors, but they only live in an era without them!

boom!
In the chaotic sea of ​​thunder, Ning Qingyi and the six Emperor Shadows engaged in a bloody battle. However, he was unable to unleash an attack similar to the previous one. Not only were the remaining six Emperor Shadows superior to the first three, but the imprints of the three Great Emperors were also pressing down on him, imprisoning his Dao.

Fortunately, his extraordinary combat power was sealed, and the six illusory emperors who fought against him did not rise further, maintaining the same combat power as him.

Azure Emperor, Demon Emperor, Daoist Venerable, Sun Holy Emperor, Boundless Heavenly Venerable, Supreme Emperor!
Ning Qingyi fought fiercely against the six illusory emperors, remaining remarkably calm. His Nine Harmonies Great Immortal Technique granted him speed beyond the comprehension of ordinary beings, surpassing even the speed of the ancient emperors, capable of injuring but not killing them.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, two more imperial palaces appeared within the chaotic sea of ​​thunder, their supreme auras shaking the heavens and earth, causing everyone to tremble.

People instantly understood that what was about to appear were two extraordinary figures, who would shine even among all the emperors!
A figure from a celestial palace appeared first. It was a figure sitting in the hall like a rock, unmoving, which made everyone feel a supreme majesty, looking down on all living beings.

At the same time, a cacophony rushed in, penetrating everyone's ears. It was the roar of living beings, the chanting of scriptures, and the prayers, all mixed together, deafening and shocking!

In the magnificent celestial palace, all living beings from all the heavens and myriad realms manifested, all kneeling on the ground, revering a single deity.

This scene shocked and terrified everyone, who were all wondering who it was.

As if to prevent this great emperor from monopolizing the limelight, another change also occurred in the other heavenly palace.

"when……"

As soon as the bell rang, the universe and the stars trembled.

Within the main hall, a figure appeared, majestic and imposing, exuding an aura of timeless solitude. His back was to Ning Qingyi, yet he still displayed an invincible presence. Above his head, a massive bell suppressed the eternal heavens!
"The Beginning Bell!"

The great saints were shocked and their expressions changed drastically. One of them trembled as he recognized the true form of the emperor.

At the same time, the Great Sage Ao Mang trembled and exclaimed, "The Undying Emperor!"

Everyone was shocked and horrified by the two honorific titles.

Who is without beginning?

The last great emperor of the ancient era was invincible for hundreds of thousands of years, suppressing the heavens and earth into silence. No one could rival him, and no one dared to claim him as an opponent!

Who is the immortal emperor?!

The first emperor of the mythological era, he is an unsurpassable myth among the ancient races. He is revered alone in heaven and earth, and all races worship him.

Even after hundreds of thousands or millions of years, these two figures still shine brightly on the ancient road, and no one dares to forget that such beings once existed in the past.

Now, the imprints of these two emperors have also manifested, becoming Ning Qingyi's calamity.

Is this still humanity's fate?

Everyone was asking themselves these questions, but they all knew that the heavenly tribulation was a test from the heavens, and that the heavens believed he had such potential to be sent down.

Ning Qingyi also gasped, but he was not afraid and was well prepared.

"Ninefold Great Immortal Technique! Ninefold Ascension!"

boom!
In an instant, five avatars appeared, each identical to the original. However, Ning Qingyi's expression changed drastically. He could sense that three of the avatars were suppressed by the Emperor's mark on the golden body!

"kill!"

An avatar entangled with an imperial shadow, while Ning Qing's true form charged towards the Supreme Emperor.

By now, Emperor Ying had thoroughly figured out Emperor Ying's strength. Although Emperor Taihuang was incredibly powerful, he was also the weakest.

"Zheng!"

A beam of immortal light pierced through eternity, and the Supreme Emperor, wielding a dragon sword, charged forward. Imperial dragon energy surged, ten thousand dragons roared, cleaving the universe as he attacked Ning Qingyi!

"All thoughts are empty!"

Ning Qingyi also unleashed a forbidden technique. He thrust out his right hand, and in an instant, everything seemed like a dream, with one dragon shadow after another shattering and turning into lightning.

It transforms reality into illusion, devoid of any earthly warmth, yet it chills everyone to the bone.

At the same time, he used his left hand to control the Primordial Boundary-Stabilizing Divine Light, freezing the Supreme Emperor for a mere fraction of a second!
"The power of destiny! It transcends fate, it transcends all paths! It is both a moment and eternity!"

Ning Qing roared, finally unleashing the Lesser Destiny Technique. At this moment, the restraints of the three Great Emperor imprints disappeared, and he once again reached his strongest state.

"Here comes the sword!"

The dragon-patterned black and gold sword fell into his hand, and his divine power transformed into an awe-inspiring imperial dragon aura, slicing through everything!

"Zheng!"

The roar of ten thousand dragons was like the resurrection of another supreme emperor, sweeping across the world!
Faced with this earth-shattering attack, the Emperor Taihuang, frozen in that instant, was completely unable to cope. Even though his restraints were severed, he still could not resist and perished in this earth-shattering sword strike.

"Crack!"

During the tribulation, the palace where the Emperor Taihuang emerged collapsed. This time, without Ning Qingyi having to take the initiative, it transformed into a brand and flew over to suppress him.

Ning Qing's heart stirred, and an avatar broke free and took the initiative to greet him.

"puff!"

The avatar was destroyed, turning into pure energy, which returned to Ning Qingyi's body, and a dragon-shaped mark appeared on his back.

Ning Qingyi's aura weakened further, and his combat strength was declining, which made him frown.

“Even the will of Heaven is restricting my fighting strength…” Ning Qingyi was very wary. His only consolation was that his opponent was also weakening.

At the same time, the two figures who had driven him to take the risk moved.

To his surprise, they did not attack him, but instead emerged from the palace to confront him amidst the vast, chaotic sea of ​​thunder.

This caused unease among the people, but Ning Qingyi's expression changed drastically, and a chill ran through her.

In this world, there are a few special emperors: Emperor Venerable, Wushi, Ruthless Man, and Immortal. They live, unlike the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone who cuts himself, or the Tribulation-Crossing Heavenly Venerable, Azure Emperor, and Amitabha Buddha, each with their own special circumstances.

Therefore, if the heavenly tribulation marks their imprint, and if the original being is aware of it, it can erase it, or it can descend upon them.

Now, Wushi and the Immortal Emperor are facing off, and it's hard to say what this means!
Just as Ning Qingyi was pondering a thousand thoughts, another imperial palace appeared, also emanating an unparalleled aura!
