The Ancient Saint Emperor of the Heaven-shading
Chapter 201 Supreme Ascension, Slaying the King of Hell!
Chapter 201 Supreme Ascension, Slaying the King of Hell! (Two chapters combined, 10,000 words)
Chuan Ying, the number one divine general of the ancient Heavenly Court!
A powerful figure from the mythical era was born after breaking free from his seal during the conquest of the Great Roc Emperor.
He looked like just a teenager, yet he possessed such a distinguished status, which surprised everyone and made them stare wide-eyed.
"Boy, you really have a lucky life to survive the pursuit of the Undying Dynasty." The Celestial Venerable of Longevity saw him and couldn't help but sneer. He was a major factor in the fall of the Emperor, so naturally he had a great grudge against this loyalist of the Heavenly Court.
"He is the number one general of the ancient Heavenly Court. I never thought he would still be alive in this world." The old god's lips trembled, and he was so excited and joyful that tears welled up in his eyes. This is the truly strongest general. In the past, he was ranked alongside the Undying Emperor and the Bright Lord, and was chosen as the successor of the Emperor.
Who would have thought that he too would live on in this new era?
"I saw his appearance in the ruins of the Flying Immortal Land. He really was the first divine general. It is said that he could have achieved enlightenment if the era had changed. He also achieved amazing accomplishments back then!" The crowd was in an uproar. Some people knew the boy's background and were all moved. There were too many legends about him.
Like the first divine general of the Undying Dynasty, his combat power was astonishing. It can be said that he achieved enlightenment in an unconventional way, possessing the combat power of the Imperial Realm, and was able to fight against supreme figures.
Boom! In the next moment, the stone staff swept across the sky, and Chuan Ying's domineering aura was overwhelming. He didn't even look at the Great Roc Emperor and directly attacked the Eternal Heavenly Venerable. The power surged out, and the light of an instant illuminated eternity. The Eternal Heavenly Venerable roared and made a move to block. The Eternal Sword brought up a net of countless Great Dao swords to cut it open, but he was injured by the Taiyin Human Emperor. A Human Emperor's Seal was placed on his body, which made this ancient Heavenly Venerable fly backward and splatter blood into the sky.
"Youngster! Even the Emperor himself never deceived me back then, yet you dare to do this!" The Eternal Life Celestial Venerable, stained with blood, turned cold with a chilling expression. With his imposing presence, how could he endure such humiliation?
"Bullshit! When the Emperor was here, he would have beaten you to a pulp long ago." The young man laughed wildly, his laughter bright and heroic. He said, "Old thief, you're here too, that's perfect! You bastard, you're the great culprit behind the collapse of the ancient Heavenly Court. Today, I'll deal with you no matter what."
He turned to Wang Hongwu, nodded, and said, "Finally, you're back. This life belongs to you. What are these old fogies? Let's join forces and wipe them all out!"
"What will you use to sweep it away? With your mouth?" The Eternal Life Celestial Venerable sneered, responding sharply, not taking the other party seriously even though he had achieved enlightenment in an unconventional way.
However, Chuan Ying ignored him and instead set his sights on the Great Roc Emperor. He roared through the heavens and earth, drew his Heavenly Bow, and was about to shoot down the Heavenly Roc!
The jet-black, hard bow was drawn, without arrows. He forcefully restrained the starry sky and chaos, condensing them into a divine cosmic arrow, containing his spirit capable of splitting the heavens and earth. Even the Great Roc Emperor raised his eyebrows. This young man's unrestrained demeanor was astonishing. If he had not been born in that era, he could indeed have attained enlightenment.
Unfortunately, he is still some distance away from achieving this.
"You've abandoned your last resort, let's see how you fight me!" While using a secret technique to protect himself, the Stone Emperor's primordial spirit fire between his brows boiled and burned against the heavens. He had actually embarked on the path of ultimate sublimation. Wang Hongwu knew that if a supreme being were to sever himself, he would need to undergo ultimate sublimation to return to his peak. In this process, a negligible flaw would manifest; but knowing this was one thing, and being able to complete it was another.
At this moment, facing the Stone Emperor, he also threw out the killing array flag left by the Qilin Emperor to suppress and kill. The so-called forbidden artifact is a magic weapon that can only be used once. Different grades have different powers, and it is destined to be completely destroyed in battle. To kill, one must first destroy oneself. But similarly, its power is also enormous.
Boom!
At this moment of ultimate sublimation, the Stone Emperor suffered an unprecedented blow. The world seemed to be on the verge of collapse, no longer a universe, first turning into a black hole, and then into a chaotic land, with terrifying aura flowing and laws destroying the world.
Strictly speaking, this was the first time the Stone Emperor had reached the pinnacle of his power. He had only heard other supreme beings talk about it. He knew that a weakness would appear at the moment of sublimation, and that when he was fully focused on improving, his defense would drop to the minimum, making him vulnerable to interruption. However, he did not believe that the Sun God of the future would know or be able to grasp this. There had never been such a thing in the world before, especially since he had activated a secret technique to protect himself.
However, his expression changed. The self-destruction of the imperial forbidden artifact was so sudden and fast. More importantly, in order to ensure that this attack would be effective, Wang Hongwu launched a fierce attack, using the most secret techniques. Surrounded by true dragons, supported by unicorns, and embraced by kunpengs, he was tall and imposing, impossible to look up to. He attacked with such domineering power, and the three immortal spirits combined their power in one punch, shocking everyone.
"How dare you!" Shi Huang shouted, never expecting to suffer such a huge loss. Even the other supreme beings of the forbidden zones were greatly shocked.
Wang Hongwu's killing move pierced through the secret technique's defense, forcing Shi Huang to swing his halberd three times to barely block the punch. However, the self-destructing forbidden weapon truly injured him, erupting into a large cloud of blood mist and interrupting the sublimation. But Wang Hongwu would never stop there; this was just the beginning of a move.
He moved like a roc soaring through the sky, swift and fierce. With each wave of his hand, the wind and clouds shifted, and he unleashed a series of deadly moves, shattering the Stone Emperor's body and leaving it covered in blood. He even punched a fist-sized hole in the Stone Emperor's head. No matter how the Stone Emperor roared and fought back, Wang Hongwu showed no sign of stopping. With both fists combined, he turned the universe upside down, carrying the power of all spirits, and smashed down heavily, manifesting as a powerful and deadly move.
This punch contains the power of all living beings' thoughts, the thoughts of countless beings bestowed with blessings. All living beings and all power in this world are transformed into the rules of the Dao, turning everything into Dao traces, becoming lines that traverse the void. Every living being is a Dao, three thousand Great Daos, three thousand spirits, countless beings have infinite Daos, and there is also the endless Chaos Divine Fire, tearing apart all gloom and darkness, illuminating eternity, and igniting the hope in the hearts of all living beings.
This is the Myriad Paths Fist, which transforms all spirits into myriad paths and is always changing and evolving!
Bang! The Stone Emperor was smashed to pieces!
Under the impact of this all-encompassing punch, he exploded completely.
An ancient emperor, a supreme ruler, was brutally killed and crushed in a direct confrontation!
Even his primordial spirit was suddenly torn in two by the hands that were surrounded by the Dao of Myriad Spirits.
This was an incredible scene that shocked everyone. It had never happened before, not even to the Supreme Being who fought against the two Human Emperors!
"Junior!" the Stone Emperor coldly rebuked, unleashing the full force of the Imperial Laws, forcefully breaking free from the cage of the Myriad Spirits Path. His physical body and primordial spirit burned as they tore through the universe, traversing billions of light-years to reassemble.
He suffered a great loss this time, but he finally escaped from that series of attacks.
At this moment, the world was silent. The Stone Emperor stood there covered in blood, but he did not fly into a rage or roar. Instead, his expression was as cold as an iceberg, allowing him to return to his most rational state.
The entire universe was shocked. The scene just now was too terrifying. The Holy Venerable actually suppressed and beat a royal expert, shattering his physical body with his bare hands and tearing his primordial spirit apart with his five fingers.
The result was terrifying, causing everyone to gasp in shock.
The other three supreme beings also fell silent, each of them having to pay attention even in the midst of a great battle, wanting to see what was going on.
The battle they had just fought served as a wake-up call. They could not afford to be careless; even the slightest mistake in the process of pushing their skills to the limit could lead to their demise.
"It's almost a success! It's terrifying! They're suppressing a supreme emperor-level expert! The heaven-defying power of the Chaos Body is truly remarkable."
At this moment, the clouds in all directions stirred, and everyone was stunned. This result was unimaginable. The Stone Emperor had just almost suffered a great calamity, being brutally beaten by Wang Hongwu to the point of exploding. It could be said to be a glorious achievement.
It should be noted that the true Chaos Body of that time only managed to seriously injure the Boundless Heavenly Venerable. The current battle body is not even as strong as it was back then, yet it has still achieved remarkable results.
"I underestimated you. You're ruthless and strong, and you seize opportunities very well. It's a pity that you're not the Chaos Body you once were," the Stone Emperor said, curbing his arrogance and truly taking the person before him as an opponent.
"Of course I am not him. I am stronger than him. As for you, you have disappointed me." Wang Hongwu said calmly. Then, the Primordial Life Stone Cauldron in his hand flew out, and two immortal lights suddenly shone from it.
First, a great purple dragon soared into the sky, covering the heavens. In particular, a dragon's roar made the four directions of the sky tremble. It quickly transformed into a purple-haired man of medium build, but he was imposing without being angry. His purple eyes were as deep as the sea, and the purple lightning he shot out to cut through the universe and shake the world. This was an ancient emperor, the Emperor of Ten Thousand Dragons!
The second person was bathed in golden light that soared into the sky, illuminating billions of light-years. He was as brilliant as if he were cast from gold, and his radiance pierced through the sun and moon. He was majestic and powerful, and what flowed from him was a rumbling and resounding golden blood energy. He was also an ancient emperor, the Golden Emperor!
"The killing intent avatars that those two people cultivated?" The Stone Emperor frowned, then shook his head. "For our level, they are not very useful. They are not even as good as the fighting spirit of the Fighting Saint Emperor. They will dissipate after a short time."
"Is that so?" Wang Hongwu sneered, and then the two emperors' avatars soared into the sky. They did not attack the stone emperor, but went straight to the two human emperors and suddenly summoned an array diagram.
It was a colorful and dreamlike ancient picture, as if it were a collection of the mysteries of the heavenly formations, containing boundless divine power. Immediately, Yama King's expression turned serious and he said, "The formation diagram of Lingbao Heavenly Venerable!"
"Indeed, today is the day you face your tribulation!" The Sun Emperor and the Moon Emperor caught the two flying swords and suddenly connected them in an array, enveloping everyone in the arena.
This place has been completely transformed, filled with a chilling killing intent. Crimson light from the infinite heights has taken over every corner before our eyes, spreading across the sky and earth. A terrifying wave, as if the universe is collapsing, and the stench of blood, like the shattering of immortal corpses, fill the air.
Looking up, they saw four killing swords hanging in different directions, their bodies dark red, emanating a terrifying and astonishing killing aura that made the four supreme beings tremble with fear. These were the killing swords that the former Lingbao Heavenly Venerable had personally forged! They were invincible.
At this moment, Wanlong, Huangjin, Taiyang Taiyin, the four avatars each wielding a killing sword, joined forces to create a spiritual treasure killing formation, imprisoning Yama, Dapeng, Changsheng Tianzun, and Shihuang. Chuanying and Wang Hongwu also fought within it.
The Four Emperors wield four swords, and the Heavenly Venerable's array diagram displays its power!
Boom! Then, all the ultimate divine weapons also rushed in, engulfing them, and the most terrifying battle in history took place.
Never before have so many weapons appeared, working together with the Supreme Dharma Body, Divine Generals, and Chaos Body to suppress the Supreme Being; this is unprecedented in history.
"Good, good, good! I didn't expect you ants to have such methods. You dare to oppose the Supreme One. You will all die today!" The Eternal Life Celestial Venerable laughed in anger, the primordial spirit fire between his brows burning fiercely. He also had the idea of sublimating to the extreme.
"Those who obstruct my immortality shall die. Do not force me to reach the ultimate level of sublimation, or I will kill you all." The Great Roc Emperor's eyes were icy cold, and his killing intent suddenly rose.
"You're already inside the formation, yet you still spout nonsense. If you were truly about to ascend, would you still be talking nonsense? Keep babbling on and on, just wait to die!" Wang Hongwu sneered, handing the Stone Emperor over to the Fighting Emperor, and then charged towards the Yama Emperor, determined to retrieve the Immortal Ascension Cauldron and the Six Paths Reincarnation Disc from him!
"An ant wants to look up at the world of the Heavenly Dragon? This is not overestimating oneself, but rather pathetic." Yama King looked at Wang Hongwu with cold malice in his eyes. This junior, a young man who had only cultivated for three hundred years, had actually shattered his lineage and slaughtered the entire Yama Palace from top to bottom! And now, he was even able to take over from the Sun Saint Emperor and fight against him, the true master.
How could this be?
This is unacceptable!
"You ignorant, toothless, and crippled thing, you dare to call yourself a dragon? You're just a mudfish, I'll kill you today!" Wang Hongwu pointed directly at it, shouting and threatening to kill this Dark Sovereign!
"Insolence!" Yama immediately rebuked, raising his fist, encased in his Netherworld Iron Armor, to smash down. But Wang Hongwu was faster, raising his own fist and charging straight at him. "You're the one who's being insolent! You old fool!"
Thump! The two fists collided fiercely, and the battle was so fierce that the sun and moon lost their light and the world lost its color. The two men's moves were full of profound principles, and the laws of the imperial way and the laws of chaos swept across all directions with a single turn.
The battlefield was in an uproar. The blood of supreme beings flew up, and the sound of bones breaking could be heard. Surprisingly, the path of Yama King was showing signs of being restrained. As soon as the spell was cast, it was merged with the chaotic light of the opponent and became part of the chaos.
The Chaos Body's defense, combined with Wang Hongwu's Ultimate Battle Body's killing power, achieved a perfect cycle. Many of the various forces unleashed by Yama King were neutralized and instead merged into the opponent's killing moves. He was forced to retreat repeatedly and was sent flying. Although he knew that the Underworld was researching the Chaos Body because of its heaven-defying nature, he was still caught off guard when he actually faced it.
This battle raged until the heavens and earth were darkened and the universe shattered. Yama, the King of Hell, used the Yama Monument to suppress the demons, but was sent flying by Wang Hongwu's fist. He fought against the ultimate divine weapon with his bare hands, showing no fear. He even left a fist imprint on the surface of the monument, which was extremely eerie.
Seeing this scene, Yama's gaze darkened. Did he really have to go through the ultimate sublimation to kill the guy in front of him?
Wang Hongwu continued his conquest relentlessly, his attacks resonating with countless forces and surging with chaotic energy, shaking heaven and earth and making all living beings tremble. The aura of the imperial power was terrifying; such a battle was rare in ancient times.
Boom! The next moment, the underworld trembled, and an ancient ultimate killing formation was revived and drawn over. It was the foundation that King Yama had engraved in the past.
"You're lucky. You only succeeded because it was the first time the Stone Emperor had ascended. Do you think I wasn't prepared?" He unleashed the Yama Killing Array, which burned without hesitation to block Wang Hongwu. Even the Yama Stele, an ultimate divine weapon, let out a mournful cry and was abandoned by its master, detonating directly to buy time in conjunction with the array.
To him, weapons are just tools to be used; they can be discarded when necessary. As long as he wins this battle, he can rebuild them from these ants and make them even stronger.
At this moment, Yama's aura changed. His brow shone brightly, his whole body glowed, and he began to burn intensely, trying to recreate his former power. The aura of supreme sublimation spread, and suddenly it became many times more terrifying!
kill!
At the critical moment, the array of supreme divine weapons also crashed down. Even though some of it was blocked by the self-destruction of the imperial array and artifacts, the remaining force still sent Yama flying. His chest bones were broken, and blood flowers exploded in the sky. Moreover, his head was also hit by the supreme divine weapons, his forehead bones were shattered, and his sublimated primordial spirit was burning fiercely.
Unfortunately, a weapon is still a weapon. Although it injured Yama, it could not stop him. The wheel protected his primordial spirit, and his imperial body possessed unparalleled regenerative power. The injury healed automatically, and celestial light radiated from it.
Boom! Wang Hongwu destroyed the self-destructing Yama Monument and the Extreme Dao Array Pattern, and stared at Yama Emperor. Although he injured him, unfortunately, he did not interrupt the process, because such a battle opportunity is fleeting, just a point in a fragment of time, and even a strong person of this level would find it difficult to seize.
The reason they were able to stop the Stone Emperor was because he lacked experience and had consumed a forbidden artifact of the Imperial Path. That scene naturally alerted the other three Supreme Beings, making them more prepared, and it would be much harder for them to succeed again.
At this moment, the place where Yama King was located was shrouded in darkness, and then the most dazzling light of all time shot out.
He successfully ascended, and instantly the aura of the Great Dao filled the heavens, boundless and radiant, spreading throughout the universe.
"Fellow Daoist Yama has ascended to a higher level; it seems we no longer need to take this step." The tightly furrowed brows of the Eternal Life Celestial Venerable relaxed, a hint of mockery on his face. He had returned to his former flawless imperial status, and his strength was far beyond what these people present could withstand.
Shi Huang didn't speak, but wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He felt a surge of resentment and began to hope that Wang Hongwu and Yama would perish together, and that he would then absorb the blood essence left behind by the two.
Wang Hongwu activated the All Character Secret once again. Previously, due to the limitations of other people's bodies, the All Character Secret did not operate as smoothly as it did in his own body. It was only after the Extreme Character Secret was activated and the integration became deeper and deeper that the probability increased. As for Yama, he was forced to this point, which means he has succeeded. This is his second birth. After this sublimation, he will die no matter what, and there is no way to change his fate.
Being able to personally end the life of a supreme ruler of the restricted area is already an extraordinary achievement.
"It has come to this point after all. But if I take your body and integrate it into the chaotic blood embryo that the underworld is researching, I might be able to reincarnate and continue my life for another lifetime."
Yama, the King of Hell, muttered to himself that he had reached the pinnacle of his power, transforming into an unparalleled ancient emperor, from whom no one could stop his advance; but this also meant that he might destroy himself in the midst of his most brilliant light.
Fortunately, the things that the underworld has been researching all along are compatible with the person in front of him, so he still has a chance to live forever.
Right now, the true ancient emperor has been born, and there is no one left in the nine heavens and ten earths to rival him. All living beings in the world are suffocating, trembling and at a loss in this oppressive atmosphere.
His entire body was covered in chains of divine order, sweeping across the universe and confronting numerous supreme divine weapons, directly blasting them away, completely unable to stop him.
Looking at Wang Hongwu, he didn't speak again, but the aura of this supreme enemy suddenly became stronger and stronger, constantly surging. Standing in the forbidden domain of the gods, he used the All-Encompassing Secret, and obtained a tenfold comprehensive amplification. His combat power soared to the peak. This is a heaven-defying secret technique. Although it is difficult to use and has too many restrictions, once it is used after reaching this level, it will cause the universe to lose its color and collapse.
"Has someone attained the Dao and become an emperor?!" Everyone was shocked, sensing the aura of an emperor.
It should be understood that the Imperial Domain has a barrier that blocks all attacks from those of lower rank and restricts various methods of breaking in, but at this moment people seem to have sensed some kind of aura.
"What an Emperor, what a Saint!" Even Yama, who was his enemy, couldn't help but sigh. A faint imperial aura emanated from the other party's body, and the aura he exuded at this moment had already surpassed that of the ancient Heavenly Court generals who had just appeared.
Even if he were to ascend, Wang Hongwu in this state would still be qualified to fight him. "Era change, only immortal gold remains immortal / Using the body as a seed, leap beyond the era!" In the next moment, two voices suddenly came from Wang Hongwu's body. Immortal tears and green-gold light shone in the Sea of Wheels; the Dao Palace was surrounded by the purple-gold power of divine marks; the Immortal Platform forged from the gold of the Dao Tribulation spread out the light of tribulation that was immortal and indestructible for countless eons; together with the crimson-gold flesh and blood, the blue-gold limbs and the black-gold spine, and the cyan-gold divine power of ascension, they merged into one.
Gathering the power of the seven great immortal metals and the five great secret realms, a supreme Dao diagram was formed. Then, the phantom images of the five great secret realms appeared, but they were not the power of immortal metals, but Dao seeds. The Sea of Wheels transformed into the Yin-Yang Immortal Seed, the Dao Palace transformed into the Five Elements Immortal Bell, the Four Extremes transformed into the Universe Embryonic Immortal Seed, the Dragon transformed into the Nine Dragon Coffin Seed, and the Immortal Platform transformed into the Myriad Dao Tree. The five great immortal seeds and the five great secret realms merged into one, suddenly forming a flower of the Great Dao, which bloomed in harmony with the Dao diagram!
The Immortal Golden Dao Diagram unfolded, and the Dao Seed Flower bloomed. The combined power of the two burst forth, directly clashing with Yama King.
Boom! The shockwave was terrifying. Blood was drawn immediately, and the crimson light illuminated the entire universe in an instant. The void, the heavens and the stars were all bathed in the crimson glow, as if a huge blood sun was bursting forth. Even with their eyes closed, everyone's primordial spirit and mind were filled with this crimson glow.
"That's the blood of the Emperor!" "The King of Hell is stained with blood!"
People were shocked, even if it was the most sublime, it was still stained with blood.
In that fierce battleground, myriad laws swirled and the Dao waves surged. As the two figures crossed paths, countless spirits danced in the air. Dragons, phoenixes, rocs, white tigers, and other creatures covered the sky and engulfed the universe. Many of them were born from the laws of chaos, resonating with the great universe, and even the myriad Daos responded.
This is inconceivable. The Chaos Body clearly did not achieve enlightenment, yet it received the favor of all the Daos and was able to have their assistance in battle. Even if it is not as good as the true Heavenly Heart Mark and the enlightened one, it is still a kind of amplification, which is extremely powerful.
The King of Hell and Wang Hongwu fought a great battle, clashing the laws of chaos with the laws of the imperial way, using supreme scriptures to confront three different fused scriptures, and using forbidden secret techniques to fight against supreme immortal techniques. They were one with the light, and their speed reached the limit of this world. When they collided, time and space stopped, and even seemed to flow backward.
"Still getting stronger?!" The master of the underworld could sense that the person in front of him had an extraordinary fighting spirit. He was making rapid progress in this kind of battle, constantly improving himself in the duel with the supreme beings, and constantly sublimating under the protection of another kind of Daoist battle method and under his conquest. This was a rare blessing.
This is no longer about secret techniques or combat skills, but about experience, life experience, willpower, courage, decisiveness, and many other aspects, elevating the battle to a higher level and transcending art and philosophy.
Previously, the reason why he was no less than other supreme beings was because of the help of the Boundless Heavenly Venerable. His combat instincts, experience, and skills made up for this. Now, Wang Hongwu is also making progress and has entered this field himself.
In the end, his fist not only circled the chaos, but also condensed into the Great Dao trajectory belonging to the Imperial Dao realm. It was almost crystal clear, and its light and flames burned down the universe and destroyed star fields. It was a symbol of 'attaining the Dao' and the technique of 'ruling the Dao'.
The dazzling trajectory resembles a rainbow or a sky bridge. Every inch of its structure is made up of densely packed scriptural characters and legal symbols, making it an unparalleled treasure.
In the hands of Yama, there was also such a path of the Great Dao, which was his Imperial Dao. He suddenly swung it and clashed with Wang Hongwu's Dao path. In an instant, there was only a huge explosion that shook the heavens and the earth. The two separated, and their right hands were both destroyed.
The two great paths, born and destroyed together, fought to a standstill!
"Old man, even after your sublimation, you're nothing special." Wang Hongwu mocked. He had already achieved sublimation and was getting stronger with each battle, while his opponent had lost the pride and arrogance he had when he first sublimated.
Although Yama didn't say anything, to him it was an absolute humiliation. To have his palm destroyed by an ant in his eyes, and to be mocked like that, was an insult.
This is truly hard to understand. Even if one were to become an enlightened being, even if one were given ten royal bodies and fused them together against the heavens, one would still perish against a true supreme being and be sent to one's death. That would only be self-inflicted. How much more so for someone who has already reached the pinnacle of sublimation, yet he still ends up in this situation. It is incomprehensible.
Aside from the Holy Venerable's heaven-defying abilities, it can only be due to the special nature of the Chaos Body. Once such a physique appears, even Supreme Beings would be wary of it. Various divine attacks are almost ineffective against it. It can devour the eight wastelands and contain all the laws of the universe. Its defense is too overpowered.
Ironically, the biggest weakness—offensive power and explosive force—was compensated for by the All-Encompassing Secret and Wang Hongwu's own mastery of immortal techniques, allowing him to defy the heavens and shatter the forbidden techniques of the extreme path, creating an impossible miracle.
"Since that's the case, let's change our tactics!" Yama's gaze was cold and gloomy. He grabbed at the Underworld and caused it to condense into a huge phantom terrain behind him, forming a 'phenomenon' to empower him. From it, the Heavenly Halberd belonging to the Prison Suppressor was borrowed and held in his hand.
Originally, he wanted to summon the weapons left behind by the Underworld Emperor, but for some reason they did not respond.
"Boy, you think you can fight an emperor with a body like this? You're far from it. You can't kill geniuses or cover up the sky with one hand. There are no miracles in front of me!" With the blessing of the underworld, the Yama King became even more confident. He merged the supreme mark of the forbidden zone of life, and all his Dao traces bloomed and were transmitted here across the star sea.
Although it was not a physical entity, the imprint was indistinguishable from the real scene. The mountains and rivers were magnificent, and a great formation appeared. It was truly a place of annihilation.
"I've already learned this technique; it's nothing special," Wang Hongwu said calmly. Suddenly, two worlds appeared behind him: one was the former Five Domains of the Big Dipper, radiating five-colored immortal light; the other was the ruins of the ancient Heavenly Court, which, although incomplete, still empowered him. The two combined, and his aura increased.
"Ha, a broken star field, ruins and rubble, dare to compare with the Underworld? Let me show you the reality!" Yama King sneered, completely disdainful, and directly swung the Prison-Suppressing Heavenly Halberd to strike. Wang Hongwu raised his fist to meet it, and the laws of chaos and the trajectory of the Great Dao became his strongest weapons to meet it head-on.
boom!
In a sense, both of them faced the most terrifying battle of their lives. They had no choice but to fight with all their might, as there was no turning back and only victory was possible.
Undoubtedly, the All-Encompassing Secret Technique was in operation throughout the entire process. Due to the simultaneous cultivation of two techniques, it lasted for a long time, allowing Wang Hongwu to reach an extreme peak of strength. However, the Yama King's secret technique was also in full bloom, similarly enhancing his own strength and doubling his killing power. Although it was not as heaven-defying as the Emperor Venerable's technique, it was still terrifying and more suitable for him.
During their battle, the heavens and earth trembled, and ghosts wailed and gods howled. The process was extremely brutal. True Daoists are unstoppable. Once they return to this position, they are still invincible. Even a powerful Chaos Body will shatter and turn into blood mist, which will then be reunited under the celestial array. However, this also depletes the essence of Wang Hongwu and the other two. This is a huge exploitation.
Similarly, Yama King also encountered great trouble, being beaten to a pulp several times. He was smashed head-on, his fists crushing him like millstones, squeezing and grinding his flesh inch by inch and shattering his bones one by one, in an extremely cruel and ferocious manner.
This was a fierce and unprecedented clash. The Yama King had been elevated to the level of a flawless Daoist, and was further aided by the Underworld and the Heavenly Halberd. The fact that Wang Hongwu could fight him for so long and still manage to win and lose was truly astonishing and defied the heavens, even to the other supreme beings.
"The Emperor's secret of the word 'all' is indeed unparalleled, but it is not necessarily invincible. Each person's method is the one that is most suitable for them!" Yama Emperor directly used his forbidden domain and ultimate method, and a strange power appeared around him, with a terrifying aura.
This is a strange divine power of the Dao, a manifestation of his will and the Great Dao. It bursts out from the top of his head, transforming into strands of terrifying demonic light that shatter the starry sky and form six enormous portals. Even the corner of the Reincarnation Disc is drawn into it, merging into the killing technique and enacting the Six Paths of Reincarnation that the Underworld personally created back then.
The cycle of birth and death, endless and boundless, is called reincarnation. When this move is unleashed, the entire universe is thrown into turmoil, affecting all living things. Countless people's ages are reversed, the elderly become children, children become weathered, withered corpses suddenly burst from the ground, and vibrant young adults die suddenly. The withering and flourishing of plants are reversed, the seasons are reversed, and everything is changed, to be reincarnated and returned to the rule of the underworld.
Yama, the King of Hell, was extremely confident in his own laws and looked down upon the world, displaying the arrogance and domineering nature befitting an emperor.
"Trying such tricks in front of me! You've picked the wrong target!" Wang Hongwu shouted coldly, directly using the Six Paths of Reincarnation Secret Technique. He merged the five-pointed wheel in his body with it, but he did not perform any special techniques. Instead, he directly controlled his six killing moves and unleashed them simultaneously.
The flapping of the Kunpeng wings behind him seemed to span the vast universe, originating from the very beginning of creation. His two arms transformed into true dragons, his five fingers forming the Dragon Fist, and a palm strike performed the Dragon Tail Swing. His second pair of arms transformed into Kunpeng, one hand performing the Sun Peng Fist and the other the Taiyin Kun Palm. His third pair of arms transformed into Qilin and Thunder Emperor, one hand pointing out the Thunder Emperor Finger and the other unleashing the Qilin Fist. The six scattered techniques were directly unified and unleashed together.
With a single move, its power was boundless, surpassing even the Nine Secrets, a true immortal technique that reigned supreme over the mortal realm. It stirred up chaotic winds and thunder, the sound so loud and the gale so fierce that it opened up three thousand great worlds. Many distant starscapes were directly reduced to dust, vast swathes of chaos were dispersed, and a new region spanning billions of light-years was opened up on the edge of the universe.
Bang! The ending was cruel. The Six Paths of Reincarnation performed by Yama was directly shattered. All six gates were pierced, and even his physical body was pierced through by the fist light and exploded mercilessly.
One punch!
The mark of the underworld's blessing was torn apart and shattered into pieces. The phantom dimmed, and even the ancient underworld trembled, erupting with a terrifying shock. It was pierced through, revealing a huge fist imprint that was deeply imprinted and could not be dispelled.
This attack stunned the three, including the Celestial Venerable of Immortality. For a moment, they lost their focus and large amounts of blood light shot out from their bodies. Caught off guard, they were injured by the sword formation.
Billions of light-years away, Yama, having reassembled his body, stared in disbelief at the fragment of the Wheel of Reincarnation in the corner of his palm.
In a clash of deadly moves, he was actually defeated head-on?
Never before had he felt such a tremor. He had fought his way to the position of Emperor Supreme, but he had never experienced anything like this before. He couldn't even defeat this young man.
Clang! The Heavenly Halberd of Prison Suppression was issuing a warning. How could one be distracted at such a critical moment? Instinctively, he raised his imperial weapon to defend against the incoming Chaos Divine Fist. Then, Yama's combat experience led him to decisively swing the Immortal Ascension Cauldron and smash it down on Wang Hongwu.
However, the ancient artifact stopped, affected by the "Soldier" secret technique, unable to move, and had no intention of harming that person!
"You?" Yama, the King of Hell, was startled by this, but then Wang Hongwu roared, "Give it back to me!"
The next moment, his fists suddenly burst into flames. A true dragon coiled around his left fist, and a Kunpeng appeared at the tip of his right fist. The dragon fist and the Kunpeng fist were unleashed simultaneously, directly striking the Immortal Cauldron in the hands of Yama King.
Boom!
At that moment, a deafening explosion rang out, and the light of the fist shone through the ages, directly shattering the arm of the Yama King and destroying a third of the Immortal Ascension Cauldron.
King Yama was shocked and furious, but then he saw the ancient fragments fly out and burst into flames, radiating a dazzling divine light that made all living beings tremble with fear.
Then, these green fragments merged with two-thirds of the Immortal Cauldron in the great formation, and there they were recast into a cauldron, ancient and mysterious, with three legs and two handles, emerald green and sacred, gradually taking shape.
Amidst the clanging sounds, the Immortal Ascension Cauldron reappeared, truly becoming one with the universe. All the cracks healed, and then mysterious laws from the universe flew in and entered the cauldron, signifying the return of the laws within the cauldron to their rightful place.
"Old Duan, we really need you." Then, the divine source on Wang Hongwu's body exploded, and the restrictive spells wrapped around it were directly dissolved by the immortal cauldron. A figure flew out from it, which was the missing artifact spirit! It had been dug back from Earth by Duan De.
Then the green bronze cauldron shone brightly, and the figure that had emerged from the divine source disappeared, disappearing into the cauldron's walls.
With a hum, the green bronze cauldron trembled, and the celestial light that fell down was like a string of silver rivers, dazzling and radiant. Inside the cauldron, a figure sat cross-legged, with a solemn and dignified appearance.
The ancient celestial artifacts of yesteryear are now complete.
"You arrogant brat, trying to steal my treasure? Even the sun couldn't do that back then!" Yama roared angrily, charging forward, only to be met with a burst of blazing immortal light that blocked his path. The aura was earth-shattering, it was the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, which directly blocked his attack.
Then it flew back and, guided by Wang Hongwu, landed in his palm. The green glow was overwhelming, and the laws of immortality danced, shattering countless stars and domains. The remaining three supreme beings also looked over, their expressions complicated. That was a true immortal artifact!
A flawless immortal artifact might not be a big problem when it is unclaimed, but when it is in the hands of someone of the same level, it will undoubtedly be a catastrophe!
It can be said that by possessing the Immortal Cauldron, Wang Hongwu truly had the power to kill a Supreme Being.
"It is the Immortal Ascension Cauldron. It has actually been revived, reforged, and reappeared in this world."
All the stars and myriad realms trembled. Unexpectedly, the immortal artifact of the former emperor had returned to its rightful place. It was too terrifying. The cauldron contained endless fragments of the Great Dao, which directly severed the myriad paths of the starry sky, threatening to turn everything into dust.
"King Yama, you dare to use this cauldron? It's a disgrace to this divine object to have fallen into your hands. Get out of my way!" Wang Hongwu unleashed the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, its impact illuminating countless strands of green light. It clashed head-on with King Yama, the immense immortal power sending him flying. He coughed up blood, his Nether Iron Battle Armor shattered into pieces, and he trembled violently, clearly having suffered a devastating loss.
The Heavenly Halberd of the Prison Suppressor Emperor was sent flying horizontally, cracked by the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, and nearly shattered. Then, it was drawn back to the Underworld by a mysterious force and never reappeared.
Wang Hongwu strode forward, directly wielding the Immortal Cauldron to suppress Yama, unleashing a great battle powerful enough to destroy the imperial path.
"Will this battle destroy the world?" "I felt the lament of the imperial way, it has been suppressed!"
All living beings trembled. The intensity of this battle caused the entire universe to tremble and shake.
No one knows what kind of terrible battle took place. The world was vast and the edge of the universe was inaccessible to anyone. Although Yama Emperor had reached the pinnacle of his power and was extremely strong, he could not possibly shatter the Immortal Ascension Cauldron. That would require at least four supreme beings, which he obviously could not do himself. Instead, he was blasted to pieces again and again.
The resurrected Yama King has reappeared, coughing up blood continuously. His condition has begun to decline, and he is about to fall from his sublime state. There is a vague sense of foreboding.
Having reached his level of strength, he had already become spiritually aware. Before his death, he would have a premonition that his life was coming to an end and that he would fall into endless darkness. This was no mistake. At this moment, he saw a glimpse of his future, or perhaps it was no longer a future, because it was darkness, nothing at all, nothing that existed anymore.
"Heh, am I really going to die? That's unbelievable." Yama laughed self-deprecatingly, glanced at Sun Saint Emperor, then looked at Wang Hongwu, and murmured, "I didn't die at your hands, but at the hands of your successor. He's far from achieving enlightenment. I'm really unwilling to accept this."
Those who attain enlightenment were once unrivaled in heaven and earth, with no rivals in the nine heavens and ten earths. They were the protagonists of their era, extremely confident, and believed themselves to be invincible for all eternity.
That was their belief: they could not be defeated in this world. But now, their pride has been shattered and trampled underfoot.
The physical pain and suffering were far less than the mental shame. It was a humiliation, like a resounding slap across his face, making him furious and extremely unwilling, but what could he do?
The person before him had the power to kill him; there was no need for further words.
Without saying another word, Wang Hongwu waved his hand, and the green bronze cauldron fell into his palm, gleaming with auspicious light. At this point in the battle, there was no need for further words; all that was needed was to end the life of his opponent!
He took a step forward and let out a shout that shook the entire starry sky, causing the Great Dao to wail and sink beneath his feet. All the laws of the Dao trembled as he unleashed the supreme attack from the Immortal Ascension Cauldron. Yama roared and fought back fiercely, but was ultimately destroyed and fell from his peak. The radiant light of his body turned into darkness. He was struck by the Immortal Ascension Cauldron and exploded in the sky.
"Ah!" Yama roared in anger, and his body reformed once again. But the cauldron pressed down and immobilized him. Wang Hongwu charged over and smashed his arms with a punch. He grabbed Yama's legs with both hands and pulled him up. Then, with a sudden burst of strength, he tore Yama apart.
With a soft thud, the emperor was torn in two and trampled underfoot.
The Qilin's foot slammed down, crushing the two halves of the body. The primordial spirit was also extracted into the cauldron by Wang Hongwu and refined into ashes, leaving nothing behind.
After the war ended, the ground was covered in the blood of the Supreme One. After he exploded, his wisps of flesh transformed into something the size of a galaxy. But now there was not a single piece of intact bone or flesh. It was a bloody mess, a truly gruesome sight.
At this moment, all the supreme beings fell silent, and the whole world was astonished.
An unimaginable feat! This person actually killed the Yama King, who had reached the pinnacle of enlightenment, head-on!
A supreme being died, having reached the pinnacle of his power, and was then annihilated in the universe.
The fall of a once-mighty ruler of the underworld has become a thing of the past, proving once again to the world the ruthlessness of time and that even the most glorious supreme ruler will one day come to an end.
After the silence, the universe erupted in jubilation. The reversal of the Supreme Being's power had actually succeeded, creating an immortal legend that shook the world.
This momentous event shook the heavens and the earth, and an invincible powerhouse shone with dazzling brilliance, illuminating the past and present.
An uncrowned emperor!
