The Legend of the Great Desolation: I Am the Fortress

"Three silkworms?" Lei Zhan's heart skipped a beat.

"Is this Blood-Clad Emperor the Three Silkworm Emperor?"

Lei Zhan's mind was immediately filled with various information about the Three Silkworm Emperors.

Besides the Lord of the Other Universe, the Lord of the Destruction Divine Court, there are three ancient star lords and many other star lords in the entire other universe. These are all very powerful beings among the Eternal Emperors.

Besides these star lords, there are many other eternal emperors like the Three Silkworm Emperor in the entire alien universe.

However, the Three Silkworm Emperor is a rather special existence among these eternal emperors.

He was lawless and committed countless sins. He would do anything to increase his strength, making him a great demon with unparalleled sins.

However, this demon, though full of sins, has offended a very troublesome and powerful being.

As a result, he was relentlessly pursued by that powerful being for dozens of Chaos Eras, a relentless pursuit until death!

“In the past, there have been some Heaven-defying Dao Lords who have been favored by the treasures of the universe.”

A fierce glint flashed in the eyes of the Three Silkworm Emperor. "And these Heaven-Defying Dao Lords are all the most Heaven-Defying Fourth-Step Dao Lords. Even I would have to retreat far away and avoid their sharp edge if I encountered them."

"but……"

The Three Silkworm Emperor's body swayed, and six arms appeared, each arm gripping a blood-red longsword:

"Even if I gave you a cosmic treasure, how much power could you unleash? Just obediently offer your neck for slaughter, and I might be able to let you die a quick death..."

"Make me offer my neck for slaughter? You?" Lei Zhan sneered. "Now that you mention your name, I do remember you. Emperor Sancan... isn't that the unlucky guy who's been hunted down by Emperor Fu Bo?"

As Lei Zhan spoke, he shook his head and sighed, "Killing and robbing... who did he have to mess with? In the end, he kicked a hornet's nest and was chased around like a rat."

"You're courting death!" The Three Silkworm Emperor was truly enraged.

Being hunted down by Emperor Fu Bo made him a laughing stock in this universe, a wound that will never heal.

Now, even a mere Third-Step Dao Lord dares to mock him...

"Give me—die!"

The Three Silkworm Emperor was radiating a terrifying killing intent as he mercilessly swung the enormous blood-red longsword in his hand.

Whoosh! The sea of ​​blood was boundless, and six cold, blood-red blades, carrying overwhelming killing intent, arrived before Lei Zhan.

"Hmph! Die!" Lei Zhan sneered.

Compared to the six longswords of the Three Silkworm Emperor, Lei Zhan, who only possessed one Frost Moon sword, was undoubtedly at a disadvantage. Even so, Lei Zhan's eyes were filled with boundless fighting spirit.

"Boom!" A terrifying aura suddenly erupted from Lei Zhan's body, and his left hand instantly became hundreds of millions of miles in size, covering the sky and the sun, like a huge world falling and crushing down.

The ultimate annihilation of time and space!

The Fourth Form of the Origin Heart Sutra: Master of the Heart!

In an instant, Lei Zhan's divine power, magical power, and mental power surged out like a tidal wave without reservation. Combined with the ultimate spacetime path, the self-created secret technique of the three powers in one finally revealed its terrifying power.

Rumble~~~
The silver palm clashed head-on with the blood-red blade.

"Ok?"

In an instant, the vast sea of ​​blood shattered, and the Three Silkworm Emperor, wielding six long swords, was sent flying backward.

He stared wide-eyed at the pile of stones in the void, his eyes filled with disbelief. How could this be? How could this be?

He is a dignified Eternal Emperor, and has been cultivating for a very long time. He is now at the top level of Emperor. How could a mere Third Step Dao Lord be able to fight him head-on and even have the upper hand?

The Three Silkworm Emperor was quite surprised; this was a difference of an enormous level.

But how could the Three Silkworm Emperor know this?

Unlike his previous encounter with Emperor Shenrong, Lei Zhan has now broken through to the second-step Dao Lord level in the Ultimate Time-Space Dao, and the power he can unleash on the universe's treasures is even more terrifying.

Furthermore, over the course of more than 200,000 years, he comprehended the Origin Heart Scripture, a powerful technique comparable to the Heart Sword Technique.

Even without the aid of the Time-Space Disc, his strength is still at the level of a top-tier Emperor. He is even slightly stronger than an average top-tier Emperor.

This Third-Step Dao Lord actually possesses combat power comparable to a top-tier Emperor? How is that possible? Where could there be such a monstrous talent? Even if he possessed a cosmic treasure, it couldn't possibly be this powerful.

"Boom~~~"

The terrifying power contained in Lei Zhan's palm strike caused even the Three Silkworm Emperor to be unable to control himself and fly backward.

"World Projection! Nine Secret Techniques!"

Lei Zhan unleashed his full potential without hesitation.

A massive projection of the Heart World descended and suppressed everything. The nine secret techniques, centered on the 'Ultimate Time-Space Dao of a Thousand Realms,' formed a terrifying domain covering billions of miles, frantically binding the Three Silkworm Emperor.

"Hmm? Projection of the World of the Heart! And this secret technique..." Emperor Sancandi's face darkened.

The Nine Origin Secret Technique was extremely fast, and the projection of the Heart World descended and crushed down in an instant. After being bound and restricted, he felt as if he had been trapped in a swamp, making him even more disheveled.

"These three-step Dao Lords are really troublesome! I wonder which old guy cultivated such a heaven-defying prodigy."

Emperor Sancan muttered to himself, "Not only is this secret technique already at the top-tier Emperor level, but also the projection of the Heart World and a cosmic treasure..." By now, Emperor Sancan was already somewhat regretful.

After all, he is not free now; he has been in hiding since offending Emperor Fu Bo.

Behind him, however, was a top-tier emperor relentlessly pursuing him!

If he hadn't unexpectedly discovered a Void Heart in this Void Sea, he wouldn't have stayed here for long.

"Kill!" Lei Zhan moved like a ghost, unleashing the strongest Spacetime Reincarnation Assassination Technique, Shadow Strike. The terrifying power originating from the treasure of the universe was unreserved as he swiftly attacked the Three Silkworm Emperor.

The Ultimate Cycle of Time and Space!

"Oh!"

As the palm struck out, layers upon layers of afterimages enveloped the area.

In an instant, it seemed as if billions of stacks of treasures were simultaneously unleashing their power, crushing down upon the Three Silkworm Emperor.

"Damn it! This power..." Emperor Sancan changed his expression, gritted his teeth and swung his long sword. The sword was as dark as blood, forming terrifying sword lights that met the giant palm.

Rumble~~~
The aftershocks of the terrifying collision between top-tier Emperor-level beings immediately caused the distant void sea to tremble, stirring up a monstrous wave.

Emperor Sancano breathed a sigh of relief. "Hahaha, kid. To be able to unleash power comparable to an Eternal Emperor, that's probably all you've got! Unfortunately, the power you've achieved by exhausting all your means is nothing more than this to me."

"Hmph! What's there to be so smug about?" Lei Zhan's gaze was icy. "You old codger who has lived for countless Chaos Eras, and your current strength is only at the same level as mine. But unlike you, I'm only a Third Step Dao Lord. Once I break through to the Fourth Step level, killing you... will be nothing more than an ant that I can crush with a flick of my wrist!"

"What a sharp-tongued brat!" Emperor Sancan glared, his bloodthirsty killing intent so intense that it would probably scare an ordinary cultivator to death.

"However... my time is precious, and I'm too lazy to waste words with you! I'll deal with you properly after I get rid of that madman Fu Bo."

Wow~~~
As soon as the Three Silkworm Emperor finished speaking, he transformed into a streak of blood-red light and prepared to leave.

Emperor Fu Bo could appear at any time, and if that madman were to run into him, given Emperor Fu Bo's insane state, Emperor Sancan would certainly not want to encounter him.

"Want to leave? You think you can just come and go as you please? How could we let you leave so easily?"

Lei Zhan frowned, clenching his left fist, his entire arm resembling a spear poised for attack. The silver glove on his hand was the sharpest point of that spear!

The spear traversed time and space, instantly crossing an endless distance before thrusting out in a furious attack.

The speed of the spacetime path is inherently extremely fast, and it arrived first even though it started later, catching up with the blood-red streak in the distance in almost an instant.

boom! ! ! ! ! !

Space shattered, and the void vanished.

Lei Zhan unleashed a massive amount of blue-and-white mist from his body into the cosmic treasure without reservation, its power terrifying indeed.

Faced with this terrifying punch, the crimson stream of light was instantly shattered into a cloud of blood mist, exploding and bursting apart.

"Damn it! Kid, you really deserve to die!" An angry voice echoed in the void.

“You… have successfully angered me! From beginning to end, even that madman Fu Bo could only manage this much.”

The blood mist that emerged from the shattered body of the Three Silkworm Emperor surged wildly, instantly transforming into a figure clad in a blood-red robe. However, this figure was no longer the evil, blood-robed man.

call.

A young man dressed in blood emerged from the blood mist. He was as cold and sinister as a venomous snake, with nine terrifying tumors on his forehead that emitted a chilling aura.

"Hmm? Emperor Sancan, perhaps this is your true form?" Lei Zhan revealed a faint smile, his gaze sweeping over the nine huge tumors on Emperor Sancan's forehead.

The malignant tumor, a mixture of blood and poison, seemed to contain some kind of taboo, immediately putting Lei Zhan on alert.

"Indeed, this is my true form." Emperor Sancandi didn't bother to hide it anymore.

His identity and appearance are no secret among the many powerful beings in this universe.

Even some of his trump cards were completely exposed during these dozen or so chaotic eras when he was being hunted down by Emperor Fu Bo.

They even used up two of their life-saving trump cards during their escape.

Otherwise, if he encountered a highly threatening demon like Lei Zhan, given the Three Silkworm Emperor's personality, his first instinct would be to eliminate him completely, rather than choosing to flee.

These top-tier emperors have lived for who knows how long, and the trump cards they've accumulated are terrifying.

Even the most powerful Dao Lords of Life and Death are difficult to kill.

Just like when the God of Ten Thousand Gods chased after Emperor Melobo, even though he used all his methods, he still managed to let the other party escape unscathed.

In reality, the Three Silkworm Emperor was infamous and had offended many powerful figures, yet he lived a carefree life. The biggest reason for this was his extremely strong ability to protect himself.

"Not running away? Aren't you afraid that Emperor Fu Bo will suddenly come to kill you?" Although Lei Zhan was wary in his heart, he was very calm on the surface.

"To be able to push me to this point, and to do this with only the third step of Dao Lord," the Three Silkworm Emperor said coldly, "that madman Fu Bo hasn't come to kill me yet, but if I let you go today, I'm afraid I'll never have a peaceful day again."

The Three Silkworm Emperor had witnessed firsthand the monstrous potential of this being. And yet, at merely a Third Step Dao Lord, he already posed such a significant threat; what would happen in the future…?

"If we let this go today, it would be like releasing a tiger back into the mountains. Once this kid breaks through to the fourth step of Dao Lord, his strength will likely be even greater; he'll be another Emperor Fu Bo." The Three Silkworm Emperor's thoughts raced.
“A cultivator skilled in the art of time and space… will pose an even greater and more terrifying threat to me in the future than Fu Bo!”
