The Ancient Saint Emperor of the Heaven-shading

Chapter 100 Slaying Yama in the Immortal Land, Gods Battle and Creation Revealed (A Long Chapter of 10,000 Words)

Emerging from the Immortal Transformation Pool, revealing the ancient Dragon Cave, a lotus blooms under the eternal blue sky.

The Sun King's duel with Yama's son triggered a series of changes in this ancestral land. A being transformed from the divine jade appeared and loudly rebuked, claiming that it had disturbed the gestation and formation of the future supreme being, which made Duan De look over.

Supreme? Could it be the revival of the ancestral spirit, or the legendary Dream Essence appearing in the world?

"You're just a broken stone statue. I've even slain a flawless Holy Spirit. What are you compared to me!"

"With your lowly status, how dare you yell at us like that!"

The two powerful figures turned around, immediately snorted coldly, and Saint-level fluctuations surged from their bodies, attacking fiercely.

Wang Hongwu summoned the Banner of Humanity, which merged with the spirit of the artifact to transform into a purple-red jade golden man who charged out with a powerful saintly aura. Meanwhile, a group of vengeful war ghosts with indistinct features flew out from Yanluozi's sleeve. They also stood within the saintly domain, flying up with terrifying howls as they attacked.

"How dare you! You have offended our ancestral land and even harbored murderous intent. If you truly interrupt the gestation of the future supreme being, you will all die!" The broken stone man roared, also very angry. He led the corpses of the ancestral kings who were pulling the cart and attacked directly, engaging in a fierce battle with the two guardian saints.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Duan De continuously set up an array, like a dividing line inserted between the Ancient Dragon Cave and the Immortal Transformation Pool, harmonizing Yin and Yang, communicating with the ancestral veins, and calling upon the spirit of the ancestral veins, hoping to borrow its power.

Meanwhile, the battle between Wang Hongwu and Yan Luozi intensified, with strange phenomena and wondrous sights appearing one after another.

Faced with the overwhelming nether energy unleashed by Yama's judge's pen, he stretched out his left hand to defend himself. His palm and fingers were as black as ink, evolving into tangible traces of the Yin energy, possessing the power to destroy all things, and pressed down like a dark cloud.

The Taiyin Emperor Seal! With a bang, the sky was instantly shattered by his blow, transforming into an unfathomable black hole that devoured everything, absorbing all the incoming Netherworld energy before slamming down, intending to smash Yama's head in one blow.

The Well of Reincarnation! Yama made the Rebirth Seal with his left hand, and a dark blue vortex appeared in his palm. The Yellow Springs River flowed backward and formed a ring, creating a millstone of reincarnation beneath his feet. It was as high as a mountain and as wide as the earth, and it forcefully pushed against the black hole, piercing through it and confronting the hand seal.

Yin and Yang, life and death, the cycle of the two polarities—these two great paths have similarities, but also vastly different evolutions. They held their breath, doing everything in their power to resist.

The cycle of life and death in the underworld and the yin and yang of the human emperor both involve the same field, but they have given rise to completely different development paths.

This is no longer a contest of strength, but a test of understanding and upholding one's own principles.

They both believed that their own cultivation was the supreme path, a belief that could not be shaken by either of them.

The Cycle of Life and Death blazed brightly, rotating across the heavens and earth. The Yin-Yang Diagram, shining brightly in the center of the universe, also shone. As Yin and Yang merged, chaotic energy surged forth, its power greatly increased, forcefully breaking through the barrier and clashing with the Underworld Dao Diagram. Then, with a loud boom, the entire sky darkened, and the two figures were sent flying backwards at the same time. Both Dao Diagrams shattered simultaneously, and they were evenly matched.

However, Yama's expression was somewhat unpleasant. He knew that this was only a seemingly even match, but in reality, he was inferior. For a half-saint to fight to a draw with a Dao-slaying king was itself a defeat.

"If I were to kill you here today, the underworld would be heartbroken, wouldn't it?" Wang Hongwu steadied himself and turned back, flying faster and faster until he burst into flames, so intense that it was impossible to look directly at him. He resembled a black and white sun burning fiercely, illuminating the entire wilderness.

"How dare you! I held back before only to fight you fairly. Since you seek death, I will grant your wish!" Yama also unleashed an unparalleled and powerful aura. Dark red blood energy formed a tsunami that poured into the nine heavens. He was like a god of the underworld who had been unshackled and resurrected, stirring up dark whirlwinds and blood rain around him.

"Yama's Decree!" He bit his tongue and spat out his life essence blood, which condensed into nine blood-red talismans in the void. Each talisman displayed a different scene of hell, which were connected end to end to form the Heavenly Prison Chains, binding him and causing the illusory image of the Mirror of Karma to appear under Wang Hongwu's feet. The mirror reflected his sins from a hundred lifetimes, showing all the killings he had committed.

All the creatures he had killed seemed to come back to life and wreak havoc in his mind; at the same time, the talismans and posters outside were reflected in reality and unleashed their power under the control of a huge Yama dharma image. The Stripping Pavilion Cold Post directly stripped Wang Hongwu's human skin; the Oil Pot Purgatory Post swallowed him into a furnace of knives; and the Soul Slaughter Post burst forth with many sword lights and shadows cutting across his body.

A series of attacks came in an instant. The advantage of his realm was beyond doubt, but under such an impact, the secret of the word "all" was also triggered. At this moment, black and white mist emanated from Wang Hongwu's body, as if chaos was surging. With a long roar, he shattered the furnace and the mountain of knives. The yin-yang diagram that he transformed into cut off the path ahead. The void collapsed and directly cleaved Yanluozi flying backward.

At the site of their battle, massive black cracks spread outwards, reaching into the distance. Incredibly, they shook the Ancient Dragon Cave, causing it to rumble and some surrounding mountains to collapse.

This triggered a surge of dragon energy, seemingly disrupting the internal balance and affecting the gestation of some kind of being.

"Such wanton destruction, I think you're tired of living!" Upon seeing this, the jade spirits guarding the Supreme Dragon Cave were furious and called upon their companions again to attack the two combatants.

At this moment, Wang Hongwu, empowered by the "All" secret technique, was in an incomparably powerful state. The eighteen "Emperor" characters reflected above his head descended with yin and yang energies, surrounding him.

The Yin-Yang Divine Transformation! Combining the two great mother scriptures' killing moves, the black and white primordial energy evolved into a Yin-Yang diagram, fixed in the void like a divine wheel, while Wang Hongwu became the dividing line between Yin and Yang, remaining completely calm in the face of the incoming jade essence.

The divine embryo breathed in and out the Yin energy, echoing him, as if it had suddenly transformed into two people, one dressed in white as snow and the other in black as ink, forming two figures that overlapped in a very strange way, like the Yin and Yang gods reversing each other.

He radiated brilliance, his hands forming the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Seal. A gigantic Yin fish and a gigantic Yang fish intertwined, moving slowly, exuding an ancient and vast aura of majesty, as if capable of destroying everything. With a deafening roar, he crushed and blasted the incoming jade essence, killing it instantly.

The Eight Sufferings of the Underworld! Yama's son's eyes also revealed a cold glint. He drew two fingers together with his sword-like fingers, tracing the strokes of the judge's pen he had refined. Using the resentment of all living beings as ink, he wrote the Eight Sufferings Mantra in the void. Birth, old age, sickness, death, separation from loved ones, meeting those one hates, and not getting what one desires were transformed into eight pitch-black chains. Each chain collided and triggered the sound of inner demons, binding the attacking jade spirit.

This move was created by the former Yama King. It takes the eight sufferings of all beings and condenses the sword intent. Each time one comprehends a suffering, the power can be increased tenfold. It is the Four Noble Truths Sword Formation, which combines the feelings of love and separation into swords, the anger of resentment and hatred into sharp edges, the obsession of not getting what one wants into blades, and the four swords of birth, old age, sickness and death. It can kill the attackers on the spot.

Strictly speaking, he already possesses the ability to contend with a sage; only the Sun King, who simultaneously triggers the All-Encompassing Secret and the Divine Restriction, can fight him.

At this moment, jade essences poured out continuously, but they could not stop the duel between the two. Instead, they were slaughtered and suffered heavy losses.

"Damn it, where did these two great demons come from? They've never appeared before, they just materialized out of thin air!"

"They are all demons, trying to ruin the gestation of our race's future supreme being. They will be punished by heaven!"

The surrounding jade spirits and stone monsters were terrified, but they had no choice but to retreat, unable to face its sharp edge directly.

Both of these powerful demons wanted to seize the treasures of the Immortal Transformation Pool and the Dragon Cave, and they were entangled with each other, but neither of them could make any further progress.

"Sun King, I have prepared quite a few things to deal with you!" As the palms and fingers clashed again, Yama flicked his sleeve, and a ball of pitch-black cold fire suddenly flew out. It was the Taiyin Immortal Fire that he had searched in the Underworld. It was the most effective weapon against the Sun Body, and he used it as a killing move to strike the Sun King.

However, the scene he expected did not occur. The Taiyin Immortal Fire not only failed to damage the opponent's essence, but was also quickly absorbed, leaving nothing behind.

"It suits my taste perfectly, so I'll give you a proper send-off!" Taking advantage of this opening, Wang Hongwu closed in, unleashing the Yin-Yang Mother Scripture in a deadly move. The black Yin Fish pressed down like a mountain range, its power of nothingness surging, almost imprisoning Yama in the sky, displaying its monstrous spatial power.

Then, the white yang fish burst forth, rippling like waves, creating a vast expanse of white. Time seemed to stand still, distorted by the emanating field, as if some great Dao rule was evolving, creating a strong illusion.

Faced with the combined suppression of the Yin and Yang, Yama was also surprised and said in surprise, "You have cultivated the Yin and Yang Mother Scripture to this extent? No wonder the immortal fire has no effect on you!"

He had some doubts when he first saw the secret technique and the character "Emperor," but he never expected that the other party had cultivated the Mother Scripture to the point of being unafraid of immortal fire.

Unfortunately, he realized it too late. He was immediately suppressed by the combined forces of Yin and Yang, his armor shattered, and he was thrown backward, revealing a stiff and cold face. His features were regular, his forehead was full, and his body was pale purple with thorn-like lines covering his skin. He frowned slightly, realizing that his prepared trump card had failed, which was somewhat unexpected.

In the battle between the two, the surrounding jade spirits and stone monsters also suffered heavy losses, the terrain was drastically altered, and the aftershocks rolled into the sky.

"Do you think I'm afraid of you? My clan's supreme ruler is currently in slumber. He is the master of this land of ascension, and everything is at his disposal. You will all die!"

Just then, in front of the bronze chariot, the broken stone figure unleashed its power, hurling out eight array flags to stabilize the six directions and eight wastelands, and began to offer sacrifices to the heavens, connecting the Yin and Yang power of the Immortal Transformation Pool and the Ancient Dragon Cave, intending to suppress and kill the two.

This made Wang Hongwu and Yan Luozi's eyes narrow. They didn't have any ultimate weapons on them at the moment. If this attack landed, it would be something that even a quasi-royal weapon couldn't withstand, since the ones making the move were all saints.

"No, he's not a true Supreme Being yet. He's still a long way from being fully formed. If he wants to soar to the heavens and achieve perfection at birth, he's destined to spend even more time!" Duan De suddenly spoke up, seeing through the situation. The so-called Supreme Being was just an existence that was about to become a Holy Spirit, and there was still a long way to go.

Each Holy Spirit takes hundreds of thousands or even millions of years to evolve and take shape. It can be said that it gathers the great fortune of the heavens. Especially in places like the ancestral roots, the ones that are conceived are even stronger, and the time required is naturally even longer.

Boom! The power of the Ancient Dragon Cave and the Immortal Transformation Pool was activated, forming a 'Refining Immortal Diagram' in the air and falling down. Within it appeared the phantom of an ancient divine war. The aura and fluctuations were unimaginable, capable of suppressing even saints, and directly enveloped Wang Hongwu and Yama.

Just then, the Chaos Green Lotus within Wang Hongwu's body stirred, suddenly rising up and unleashing a dazzling azure light.

The sudden appearance of the Chaos Green Lotus exceeded everyone's expectations. It shone with strings of runes, like ribbons of immortal light, bright and crystalline. As they fell, they diminished the eerie atmosphere of the place.

"It's that lotus! It's still in the Immortal Transformation Pool?"

"Damn it, when it descended from the sky, it stole a lot of the essence that should have belonged to our clan's supreme being. Otherwise, the supreme being would have been born long ago!"

"Hmph, now this demonic lotus is causing trouble again, let's fight it!"

Unexpectedly, this caused a huge uproar. The jade spirits deeply resented the Immortal Lotus and had a grudge against it. They believed that it had stolen the opportunity that should have belonged to the Dragon Vein Supreme, causing its birth time to be continuously delayed.

The entire Immortal Refining Diagram became even more terrifying, as if it had summoned the Dao traces left over from the ancient divine war. All sorts of terrifying supreme killing shadows pressed in, but then a chaotic phantom appeared on the green lotus, and a lotus seed evolved within it, creating a true universe.

"The lotus in the eternal blue sky is actually the Azure Lotus Immortal King from the Immortal Ancient Era. After his fall, he turned into an elixir of immortality, was reborn as a lotus seed, took root in the Immortal Cauldron, and eventually transformed into the Azure Emperor. Although he took human form, he lost the essence of immortality. This is a choice he made."

Wang Hongwu was awe-inspiring. The current state of the Immortal Lotus was quite special. It seemed to be shedding the essence of the elixir of immortality and moving towards nirvana for living beings. However, a trace of that power remained, which caused this subtle change, which was inexplicable and hard to explain.

'Coming from chaos, returning to chaos, a single lotus blooms under the eternal blue sky.'

Faintly, a faint voice came from within the lotus seed. This power protected Wang Hongwu, allowing him to resist the Immortal Refining Diagram in an instant. With a sweep, it also shattered the attacking shadow. His every move was so natural, without any oppressive aura or awe-inspiring presence, like an eternal immortal body.

Yanluozi's pupils contracted, realizing something was terribly wrong. He retreated hastily, only to see the Sun King's entire body radiating a dazzling azure light. With a single unfurl of its celestial lotus leaves, it opened up the eternal blue sky, tearing through the vast heavens. Nothing could withstand it, and it directly pierced through the Immortal Refining Diagram.

Then one after another, characters appeared, each representing a divine beast. The script was strange, as if a real being had been reborn, possessing an overwhelming and domineering power that directly cleared the area and wiped it out. The broken stone man let out a miserable scream as all 108 divine rings shattered, and then his body turned into light and evaporated completely. All the jade essence that appeared was swept away, and even the Ancient Dragon Cave was breached, revealing a burial ground.

There, an ancient dragon chariot emerged, riddled with sword and blade marks, bearing the imprint of a great battle from years past.

Wang Hongwu looked closely and saw that it was an ancient dragon chariot with a great emperor's crown, an ancient emperor's holy robe, and a handful of ashes on the spot.

Clearly, the original owner has passed away, leaving only these few relics here. Perhaps it was a quasi-emperor caught up in the divine war, or perhaps an even stronger being; no one can say for sure.

"So that's how it is. The remnants of the ancient divine war were collected by the immortal emperor of the Central Plains in later generations and became his attire." Wang Hongwu suddenly realized that this was the weapon wielded by the Holy Spirit of the Central Plains in later generations.

Unexpectedly, the two had a conflict in ancient times.

"What a pity, this should have been my opportunity!" Yan Luozi thought to himself. He had originally planned to rush into the Ancient Dragon Cave, but the Jade Essence and the Green Lotus had caused him to run further and further away. He could only watch helplessly as Wang Hongwu took it.

Wang Hongwu raised his hand and grabbed the ancient emperor's robe and the emperor's crown. He then turned his attention to Yan Luozi, steered his chariot, and charged forward to crush him.

"The time is in his hands, not mine; let's retreat." Seeing this, Yan Luozi retreated, immediately throwing out a series of killing formations to block the way, and rushed into the depths of the Immortal Transformation Pool.

"Chase!" Duan De shouted, and was the first to rush into the pool. The surrounding mist was hazy, creating a dreamlike atmosphere.

When Wang Hongwu plunged in, the scene was completely different. The Taiyin Mother Scripture he was practicing gave him a response, pointing him in a direction, and he slowly went deeper.

He searched while refining the dragon chariot, but the rolling wheels lost their sound in this secret land.

This seems to have led them astray from Duan De and Yan Luozi, onto another path.

As he ventured deeper, Wang Hongwu came across a rhombus-shaped fragment, which shone brightly while soaking in the essence of the Immortal Transformation Pool.

As he approached, the divine power of the Taiyin naturally circulated, causing the fragments to sway slightly. When he got close, the fragments suddenly trembled, reflecting a phantom image.

Upon closer inspection, the illusory image turned out to be a large black seal with countless strands of light hanging down. However, this seal was clearly flawed, missing a corner and having a crack that ran all the way to the center.

The diamond-shaped fragment in front of them was exactly the missing piece.

Seal of the Human Emperor!
"It's actually a fragment of the Human Emperor's Seal left behind by the Ancient Emperor Taiyin? After the war of gods, when all the artifacts were shattered, this fragment of the Human Emperor's Seal fell into the Immortal Transformation Pool along with the fragment of the Immortal Ascension Cauldron. No wonder there are rumors of the remains of supreme weapons." Wang Hongwu recalled the records and descriptions in the ancient books and couldn't help but change color. This was definitely the Human Emperor's weapon.

In the past, a war of gods took place, and the Emperor's Seal, which ruled over the nine heavens and ten earths, was lost in the universe, with its main body falling to the Kunlun Ancestral Land.

The missing piece is nowhere to be found. If I had not cultivated the Taiyin Mother Scripture, I would probably have had a hard time finding it.

Boom!

At this moment, he activated the Taiyin Mother Scripture, and the Taiyin Immortal Fire he had previously subdued was released all at once, forming a large hand that picked up the fragments of the Human Emperor Seal and slowly put them into the Immortal Platform.

Whoosh! In just a moment, the Taiyin Divine Power within Wang Hongwu's body surged, as excited as if it had seen its mother, constantly intertwining and purifying itself, becoming even more condensed than before.

With the aid of this fragment, his cultivation of the Mother Scripture will become even more transcendent, allowing him to manifest many profound mysteries. "Damn it! Shameless thing! You've tricked me like this! I'm not finished with you!"

Just then, a scream came from afar, followed by a thunderclap and a huge bolt of lightning that shattered the tranquility of the world.

When he got closer, he found that it was Duan De jumping around, covered by a cloud of tribulation clouds, crackling and yelling, while the one undergoing tribulation was Yama!

Having experienced many twists and turns, he deeply felt the terror of the Sun King and decided to spend the great tribulation of sainthood here, using the unparalleled power of the barrier to suppress his enemy.

This also provides an opportunity to counter the ancient war chariots obtained by the opponent. No one dares to use Dao weapons during the tribulation, as they would be dragged down with them.

Hmph! Wang Hongwu snorted coldly and approached directly. The divine spear formed by the Great Heavenly Tribulation Technique within his body was in his hand. Even without using Dao weapons, he was not afraid to fight in the lightning tribulation.

"I heard you're best at using lightning tribulations to kill your opponents? Now it's my turn to strike you down!" Yama went berserk, summoning his own tribulation to become a saint, wanting to use the power of the lightning tribulation to destroy the Sun King. Normally, this method would indeed be sufficient.

However, Wang Hongwu, who had mastered the Great Heavenly Tribulation Technique, was least afraid of this kind of attack. He sneered, and a divine spear appeared in his hand, piercing directly into the sky, merging himself with the lightning tribulation and remaining completely unaffected.

Boom! The boiling electric light made the sun, moon and stars tremble. In the distance, large stars changed their trajectory, trembling wildly in this vast and unpredictable fluctuation, and then some of them exploded with a bang, like fireworks blooming.

However, the Sun King was unharmed amidst this terrifying shockwave. Even the lightning tribulation seemed to deliberately avoid him, making way for him as if to welcome a monarch.

Yama was filled with doubt and surprise. How could the other party be unaffected by the lightning tribulation?

Why should you submit to your own tribulation lightning?
Is there any justice in this world?!

As he was speculating, several large dragons emerged from the sea of ​​lightning. Their bodies were covered in dense blue dragon scales, and their bodies were as strong as mountains. They knocked him away in an instant. Then, a series of weapons flew out from the lightning tribulation. The first one was a cauldron. Chaos filled the mouth of the cauldron and pressed down, combining offense and defense.

Next came a large bell, its melodious sound causing the cosmos to tremble slightly; then came an ancient tower, possessing the power to suppress the thirty-three heavens; then came celestial swords slashing down, and halberds falling one after another with super powerful attack force. Even Yama's son was extremely focused in his fight against them, while Wang Hongwu was also constantly attacking him, manipulating the sea of ​​thunder to surge and press down.

Within it are mountains and rivers, birds and beasts; upon closer inspection, it is a lifelike world. On the earth, mythical creatures such as the Kunpeng, White Tiger, Tengshe, and Zhuque appear, a transformation resulting from the Eight-Nine Heavenly Techniques.

"You've defied the Heavenly Gang! You used my tribulation lightning to injure me?!" Yama was shocked and furious. He realized the reason. If he were to become a saint, his power would be absolutely terrifying. But now, using tribulation lightning to strike someone had instead put him in danger. This was truly unexpected.

Moreover, this is just too shameless. They finally managed to use the Tribulation of Ascension to Sainthood as their trump card, preparing to obliterate the Sun King, only to find that the other party can directly influence the lightning tribulation and turn the tables on the tribulation seeker? This is too much of a rip-off!
Bang! Bang! Wang Hongwu swung his fists repeatedly, his Sun Emperor Fist striking through the air, causing blood to splatter from Yan Luozi's body. His attack never stopped; he was determined to strike while the iron was hot!

Ah! Enraged, Yama shook off his opponent and, under the cover of the strange phenomenon, took out two medicinal kings, swallowed and refined them, instantly restoring his essence, energy and spirit to their peak.

"Very well, I didn't expect that even with my superior cultivation level, I would still have to resort to such a secret technique. Let me show you what kind of ultimate skill I have comprehended from the Nine Secrets of the Underworld!"

Seeing that his two trump cards, the Immortal Fire and the Thunder Tribulation, had both failed, Yama finally resorted to his ultimate move, activating the Nine Secrets he had cultivated since his birth. Above his head, a cloud of auspicious energy emerged, followed by five elements that surged out from his Dao Palace, constantly transforming and evolving into the human body.

In the darkness, the sound of chanting from the past seemed to echo, praying for my present life. The human form that emerged was none other than the legendary deceased me!

This is not an avatar; it is a real self, whose combat power is far greater than that of the avatar. It is equivalent to two versions of oneself fighting against the enemy at the same time.

Chi!
The five elements in his chest merged with the auspicious clouds, transforming into a being that looked exactly like him and walked out. Its appearance and cultivation were identical, and it was unaffected by the lightning tribulation. Its whole body exuded a sense of vicissitude and antiquity, as if it lived in the past and was a manifestation of his former self.

A living, breathing half-saint Yama appeared. He was also a forbidden expert of the Eighth Level and possessed immense strength. He directly clashed with Wang Hongwu and joined forces with his main body to attack, instantly reversing the course of the battle.

Wang Hongwu, who originally relied on the power of the lightning tribulation, was able to gain the upper hand. However, now that he was fighting two opponents at once, he immediately fell into a disadvantageous position. The combined forbidden number of the two powerful enemies was one level higher. He could only regain the advantage when he triggered the All-Word Secret. At other times, it was very difficult. This was terrifying enough. Others would not have been able to hold on.

This is the Nine Secrets of Yama's cultivation, but it is not yet fully mastered; it is only being used to a lesser extent. In Wang Hongwu's view, it is very similar to the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones, but it is even more profound and powerful.

"Recruiting others to help you in battle? This kind of method isn't unique to you. If you don't undergo your tribulation, I'll really be in a bit of a predicament." Wang Hongwu said coldly, actually dispelling the Great Heavenly Tribulation Technique's concealment of himself and guiding his own Dao-Severing Tribulation to fall.

With a deafening roar, a waterfall of thunder appeared above his head, blotting out the sky and stretching endlessly, like countless suns exploding, terrifying beyond measure.

As you can see, there are still raging waves in the sea, which transform into various human and beast shapes, baring their fangs and claws, rushing towards you. This great calamity of severing the Dao is also terrifying, enough to kill a half-saint and break through the barrier of the holy domain, making Yama's eyelids twitch slightly.

At the same time, he was also using the Great Heavenly Tribulation Technique to influence Yama's son's lightning tribulation, trying to condense his own power from it.

"Why do I suddenly feel palpitations?" Yan Luozi's heart suddenly trembled, and he couldn't help but look up. In the endless lightning, an ancient building appeared, which was formed entirely of electric sparks and was now slowly taking shape, making it hard for people to breathe.

The grand palace is majestic and ancient, covered with patterns of all spirits, and has one majestic human figure after another imprinted on it. It is like a supreme palace that connects the ages, as if the supreme figure of every era is enshrined in it, who possesses invincible grace and suppresses a period of history with one hand, and is a true king of the century!

boom!
The next moment, the door of the ancient hall opened and a figure emerged from it!

The Supreme Palace, which made a fleeting appearance during the Primordial Thunder Tribulation, has descended once again.

Humanoid lightning! Even Yama was stunned. Throughout history, very few people have been able to summon such lightning, and they all eventually became extraordinary beings. Even ancient books only vaguely record such events.

The next moment, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked. Crimson gold blood energy surged into the sky from the top of that person's head, dominating the world and directly pressing down on the Nine Secrets Incarnation of Yama's Son.

This was an extremely terrifying aura. The bloody smoke dispersed the sea of ​​thunder and caused the chaos to explode. This person was the best in his realm, both ancient and modern, and he looked down upon the universe.

One person, a human-shaped lightning, displayed such divine power. At this level, he can be considered invincible.

What is even more terrifying is that his appearance and temperament are exactly the same as the Sun King next to him, and he has his own unique charm.

"The legendary humanoid lightning? This thing has never appeared in my tribulation. You're the one who did this! Is it your incarnation?" Yama was surprised, then realized what was happening and stared at Wang Hongwu in horror. He had never heard of anyone being able to control another person's tribulation before!

This was too incredible, even somewhat fantastical, making him unable to believe it.

Using the enemy's tribulation of becoming a saint to summon a humanoid lightning avatar to aid in battle—this has never happened even in the mythological era!
"Is this for real?!" This was all unbelievable, beyond comprehension, and simply unimaginable. Even Duan De stared wide-eyed, rubbing his eyes incessantly as if he had seen a ghost.

Bang! While Yan Luozi was stunned, Wang Hongwu had already crashed into him with his Dao-Slaying Tribulation. First, he swung the Three Yin Demon-Slaying Blade, and eighty-one dark cyan blade lights swept through, disrupting Yan Luozi's mind. Then, with one hand, he formed the incomplete Dou character and transformed it into the Sun Ancient Pagoda, and with the other hand, he used the Lin character secret to suppress the void, directly imprisoning Yan Luozi and forcing him to take a series of attacks. Instantly, Yan Luozi's body cracked open, and he flew backward, his blood splattering in the sky.

This was a terrifying confrontation. Yan Luozi's nine incarnations were ostensibly resisting the heavenly punishment, but in reality, they were going through a life-or-death battle. Their opponents were extremely peculiar, with strength comparable to their own, and both were half-saints. The fight was extremely fierce, and they could hardly protect themselves, let alone help their main bodies.

The humanoid lightning battled the Nine Secrets incarnations, while Wang Hongwu and Yanluozi fought each other while undergoing tribulations. The tribulation of severing the Dao and the tribulation of becoming a saint were combined, producing a terrible change. Both of them were surrounded by lightning, breaking free from shackles and fighting fiercely, looking ferocious and terrifying.

"Past self and future self, come and aid me!" In the midst of his frenzied battle, Yama unleashed his power, activating the Nine Secrets to a whole new level. The chanting of the past and future resounded from the Dao Palace. He actually drew upon the power of the two illusory beings, the Past Self and the Future Self, splitting them into three, and their killing power formed an array that enveloped Wang Hongwu.

However, faced with this attack from the Nine Secrets, the Sun King roared to the sky, and then he opened his mouth and sucked away most of the vast divine sky and endless heavenly tribulations, which were then concentrated on the five fingers of his right hand. He then clenched his fingers into a fist, which transformed into world-shaking divine power.

The corpses on the distant land retreated, not daring to approach, utterly terrified. Just how powerful must this physical body be? His entire right fist turned purple-gold as he unleashed the attack, like a true god.

This scene was terrifying. The vast sea of ​​lightning and endless heavenly tribulations were almost drained and concentrated into a single strike, colliding violently with the Nine Secrets Killing Move. It was an extremely terrifying sight that even saints frowned. This was a vast light of heavenly tribulation, which could easily destroy many half-saints.

An unparalleled terror gripped the entire immortal realm, causing it to tremble. Even many asteroids in the heavens exploded, bursting open like fireworks.

This is truly astonishing. A single strike could create such a magnificent spectacle, enough to destroy even the small world created by a true sage. It is awe-inspiring.

There, two figures swirled and pounced like eagles and roc, intertwined and clashed repeatedly—it was simply unimaginable.

"This guy... has been fighting against the gap in forbidden numbers and the barrier of the Holy Domain!" Yan Luozi was shocked. He actually withstood the Nine Secret Killing Moves and was competing with him, who was about to become a Saint, and they were evenly matched. The battle made the Heavenly Domain tremble, mountains collapse and seas tsunami, and meteorites explode one after another. This was an unparalleled terror.

With a final deafening roar, the lightning vanished, the endless storm dissipated, and the world returned to clarity. Wang Hongwu's joints moved and cracked incessantly, his entire body radiating a divine golden light.

At this moment, Wang Hongwu broke through the tribulation and ascended to the seventh level of the Dao-Slaying Realm. Under the blessing of the divine restrictions, he had reached the same level as Yama, who was at the half-saint realm, and was now without any flaws!
The tribulation of severing the Dao is naturally easier and ends faster than the tribulation of becoming a saint; this is inevitable.

Upon witnessing this scene, even Yan Luozi's expression darkened, feeling unprecedented pressure. If the opponent were to touch the secret of the word "all" in this state, he would probably only be defeated.

But he showed no intention of retreating. He used the secret technique of the Underworld to amplify combat power and pressed forward directly. He lowered his body and threw a punch in reverse. A vortex like reincarnation was shrouded on the fist, making time seem to reverse. Wang Hongwu would not back down. He clenched his five fingers and threw the Sun Emperor Fist. The domineering fist light burst out with endless light and heat and directly hit the vortex. The two roared violently.

The duel between two extraordinary figures was like a roc tearing through the sky, or a dragon soaring through the void. Their movements were faster than lightning, causing the heavens and earth to tremble.

With a thunderous roar, they finally separated, each rushing off to one side. It was a spectacular duel that shook the world, a battle of unparalleled proportions among the younger generation, worthy of being recorded in history.

"That's right, that's it! The battle that pushed me to my limit forced me to break free of my constraints, hahaha! Sun King, I really have to thank you!"

At this moment, this successor of the Yama Palace touched upon a divine taboo, stepped into the domain of the Forbidden King, and felt an unprecedented power within himself.

He did not waste this excellent opportunity and immediately unleashed his killing move. A huge humanoid phantom appeared behind him, its entire body blue and covered with a layer of fine scales, gleaming coldly. Even its face was covered with fine blue scales and had long, blood-red hair. Between the strands of hair were eight huge horns, which covered the area from the temples to the skull and the back of the head, making it ferocious and terrifying.

Behind him trailed a massive, azure-scaled crocodile tail, and his feet were like elephant feet, thick and powerful, making the void rumble as he stomped. His hands were a pair of azure dragon claws, which were currently holding a Book of Life and Death, on which Wang Hongwu's image and name were reflected, and he was writing and drawing, captivating and seducing.

Divine Form: Yama, Judge of Life and Death!
"It's just a divine restriction, I've already set foot in it!" Wang Hongwu scoffed, meeting the attack head-on. With the blessing of the divine embryo, he also unleashed a divine killing move. With a loud thud, the sky darkened instantly, and a fierce wind raged.

The sound of roosters crowing echoed across the mountains and rivers, and an infinite red light shone down from the highest sky.

The world was bathed in a bright red light, and the sounds of the Great Dao resonated endlessly. Behind them appeared an immortal Heavenly Emperor.

Divine rings surrounded him one after another, and Ying Zhao spread his wings and flew high. The Holy Emperor of Heaven stepped on him, and his movements were consistent with Wang Hongwu. They rushed forward together, creating a long red river that swept through ancient and modern history.

That long river traversed the vast universe, condensed the essence of heaven and earth, and brought forth boundless laws and divine principles.

The divine form of the Emperor of Heaven steps on Ying Zhao!
The Yama King and the Heavenly Emperor fought fiercely. The crimson river and the Book of Life and Death intertwined and surged, instantly shattering the heavens and earth, collapsing mountains, and causing chaotic energy to surge. It was as if the world was being created, and the ripples from the impact caused countless meteorites and asteroids to explode.

Clashes of Heavenly Eyes, duels of Emperor Characters, clashes of Imperial Scriptures, clashes of Thunder Tribulations, clashes of Secret Techniques, and now, a battle of divine forms!

It can be said that the two forbidden kings clashed in various fields, both being outstanding figures who have amazed the world. This battle was earth-shattering and beyond the imagination of the world.

In the end, Wang Hongwu's understanding of the divine form was superior, as both of them had achieved the unity of the primordial spirit and the Dao. In this aspect, Yama was at a disadvantage and was overwhelmed. After a hundred moves of fighting with the Heavenly Emperor, Yama was pierced through the chest, and the crimson river submerged the Book of Life and Death, dissolving it inch by inch.

*Pfft!* Yan Luozi coughed up blood, wounded in the fight. He was unwilling, but he couldn't turn the tide. This formidable enemy was truly terrifying.

Wang Hongwu approached again, continuously activating the All-Encompassing Secret Technique. Although it wasn't triggered this time, the power of the killing move was still terrifying. He slammed his palm into the air, and five-colored divine fire boiled within it, emanating from the Humanity Banner, capable of burning even saints.

Faced with this attack, Yan Luozi's expression turned ugly. He let out a soft shout and threw out the Netherworld Blood Box. Nine Yin True Water surged through the air from within, blocking the divine fire. Then, he released his Dao Palace and used the power of the Netherworld Cave Heaven to resist the Qiankun in his palm. The two attacks collided, causing a huge shock, and both were forced back.

The Great Annihilation of Reincarnation! Seeing repeated setbacks, Yama once again took out the Medicine King and swallowed and refined it. He formed the Ksitigarbha mudra with his hands, and the six Paths of Reincarnation appeared behind him. He condensed a point of extremely dark light on the character "判" (judgment) between his eyebrows. This was a sure-kill strike that combined the laws of life and death. At the same time, the chanting of the Brahma for the salvation of countless vengeful souls echoed under the lightning tribulation, and suddenly transformed into a beam of light that shot down.

All that has passed, the future is endless, the Imperial Ultimate Scripture! Wang Hongwu also used his supreme method to trigger the secret of the word "all," and the Imperial Ultimate Scripture manifested the flower of the Great Dao.

The great Dao of the world is infinite. Some say there are three thousand great Daos, some say all Daos return to the source, and some say the Dao's laws are naturally endless and countless. Under its resonance and guidance, all spiritual bodies and all powers in this world are transformed into the rules of the Dao, turning everything into traces of the Dao, becoming lines that traverse the void.

Suddenly, all sorts of Daos danced in the air. Although some were very weak, they represented a direction, a path leading to the other shore, to the end of life and the world. All of them manifested. All kinds of forces in this world transformed into the rules of Dao. The essence of plants and trees, the faint light of the sun, moon and stars, the darkness of the universe all poured down.

This is an extremely terrifying divine technique, difficult to resist. Although the Great Annihilation of Reincarnation is terrifying, it did not fall behind at the beginning, but as the resistance lasted longer, it gradually became unsustainable. After resisting for half an hour, it finally dimmed and was suppressed. After all, Annihilation is finite, while the Great Dao is infinite. This is the gap between the concept and the interpretation, which is difficult to bridge.

The users' spirit and ambition also vary greatly!
Then the Flower of the Great Dao suddenly enveloped the phantom of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and even its roots waved like tentacles, entangling Yama's son, who was shocked and exclaimed, "What kind of magic do you cultivate?! You actually created something like this!"

This is absolutely beyond the capabilities of the descendant of the Sun Emperor. Who exactly are you?!

Wang Hongwu naturally wouldn't miss this crucial opportunity. Without wasting any words, he forcefully activated his ultimate killing move, causing his primordial spirit to merge with the Dao and his physical body to evolve into a divine form. His primordial spirit surrounded the strange phenomena and suddenly merged into one, transforming into a ray of eternal light that pierced through Yama's son.

puff!
In an instant, blood splattered, lightning surged, and a headless corpse suddenly fell to the ground.

The future ruler of the Underworld, the forbidden king who was about to become a saint, thus perished, killed by Wang Hongwu with a single blow.

The ancient grudge between the two emperors will last for eternity; their successors will clash to determine life and death, but the red sun will never set.
