High Martial Arts: I Travel Through Heaven and Earth Through Dreams

But the thought only flashed through his mind for a moment before he coldly extinguished it.

"Unfortunately, the feud has already been formed."

The Emperor took a deep breath, his eyes regaining their cold and resolute expression.

From the moment he made his move against Lin Hanzhou, they became absolute mortal enemies.

He, the Emperor, the number one mastermind throughout the ages, a half-step True Immortal about to reach the pinnacle, would never lower himself to beg for peace or surrender to a junior!

This universe cannot accommodate two rulers.

Only one of them can survive!

"Since you're willing to be a cleaner outside and help me get rid of these disgusting bedbugs, then go ahead."

"When you are exhausted, I will send you on your way."

The Emperor snorted coldly, forcibly discarding all the complicated thoughts in his mind, and sat cross-legged in the void again.

He stopped paying attention to Lin Hanzhou's massacre outside the light barrier, and also stopped paying attention to the strange creatures that were frantically ramming into the light barrier.

He slowly closed his eyes, focusing all his attention on the seven-colored thunderclouds above his head, which were still brewing wildly and growing increasingly terrifying in power.

"Boom!"

Seemingly sensing the Emperor's provocation, a roar that shook the ages resounded from the thunderclouds.

The next moment, a seven-colored lightning bolt as thick as a building, like a world-destroying dragon, struck the Emperor with overwhelming force!

"Well done!"

The Emperor neither dodged nor avoided the attack, and even withdrew all his outer defenses, allowing the terrifying lightning to pierce through his body.

"Crackling sounds!"

The raging immortal lightning raged within his body, attempting to tear his flesh and obliterate his soul.

But this is exactly the result the Emperor desired!

His perfect Chaotic Holy Body erupted with the most dazzling immortal light at this moment.

The moment that domineering thunderous power entered his body, it was frantically devoured and absorbed by his black hole-like physique.

This tribulation lightning, which was powerful enough to obliterate even the greatest emperor of the time, has now transformed into the most violent yet most effective resource!

Under the tempering of this flame, the Emperor's immortal body became even more flawless, and his immortal soul became even more resilient.

The last remaining trace of the Imperial Law belonging to the Supreme Emperor within his body also emitted cracking sounds during this baptism of thunder, beginning its final sublimation towards the flawless Immortal Law!

As long as we can survive this tribulation of lightning.

Once he truly pushes open that door, completely transforms his own laws into immortal laws, and fully achieves the status of a true immortal!

At that time, all these predicaments will be easily resolved and will no longer be a problem.

Whether it's the unfathomable Sword Emperor Lin Hanzhou, wielding a heaven-defying sword;

Whether it's those elusive, ancient monsters of true immortal level hiding deep within the three paths to immortality, secretly lurking and ready to plunder at any moment.

Even the Emperor will be fearless.

With the bearing of a true immortal, he swept across the ages, suppressing all enemies!

"Snap!"

Another, even more violent bolt of lightning struck down, completely engulfing the Emperor's figure in endless seven-colored immortal light.

At the deepest part of this light, the terrifying pressure belonging to a true immortal is rising madly toward the peak with an unstoppable momentum.

.......

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

That golden light shield, crafted by ancient immortals and powerful beings, still resembled a massive, inverted glass bowl over the starry sea, tightly protecting the entire vast star field where the Emperor resided.

Above the light barrier, countless runes exuding a rich immortal aura, like living dragons, constantly moved and flowed within the golden light screen, emanating an aura of eternal immortality.

Outside the light shield, however, lay a truly chilling and terrifying scene of despair.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Rumble—!"

The deafening bombardment continued for three days and three nights without a single moment's respite.

Those bizarre armies had completely descended into a state of frenzy, relentlessly attacking the golden light shield.

They were like countless frenzied beasts that had caught the scent of an unparalleled elixir, piling up layer upon layer, densely packed, around the golden light shield.

The sheer number of them was beyond measure, exceeding tens of millions; they formed a vast black ocean capable of submerging several galaxies.

However, no matter how frantically they attacked, the golden light shield remained dazzling and did not ripple even slightly.

……

In a fragmented meteorite belt, extremely far from the golden light shield.

The void here has long been torn to pieces by various violent energy turbulence.

However, in this chaotic and extremely dark shadow, a tall and slender figure, like a banished immortal, stood quietly.

Dressed in pristine white, he was none other than Lin Hanzhou, who had previously wreaked havoc among the strange army like a tiger among sheep.

At this moment, Lin Hanzhou's aura was completely concealed, hidden in this void.

Lin Hanzhou's eyes were quietly peering through the vast black waves, watching the movements inside the light shield.

On the first day, after wielding his sword and slaying tens of thousands of quasi-emperors and saint-level monsters, and even casually eliminating more than a dozen terrifying monsters comparable to emperors,

Lin Hanzhou immediately sensed something was wrong and decisively stopped, hiding in the shadows.

His reason for stopping was simple and rational.

First, after careful observation and confirmation, he realized that these strange creatures were now completely attracted by the aura of a true immortal on the Emperor's body, which was about to undergo a perfect transformation.

All their attention and madness were focused on that golden light shield. Before devouring the Emperor, this "supreme elixir," these strange creatures would not divert their forces to actively invade other star regions of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Now that the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are temporarily safe, there is no need for him to continue to do hard labor and fight to the death against these endless monsters.

Secondly, and most importantly.

Although these bizarre creatures appear to be irrational, only knowing how to destroy and devour in a frenzy, Lin Hanzhou knew very well that they were not truly inanimate objects. They also possessed intelligence and even a kind of "group instinct" belonging to abyssal monsters.

If he continues this unrestrained and rampant slaughter, killing too many and too ruthlessly, it will inevitably attract the attention of those higher-level beings hidden deep within the mysterious army.

Once these bizarre creatures' "collective instinct" determines that Lin Hanzhou's threat level exceeds that of the Emperor, or believes that he, this variable, must be eliminated first, then this army of billions of bizarre creatures, like a tidal wave, will definitely turn their guns around and attack him in an instant!

Moreover, deep within those three shattered void rifts leading to the unknown path to immortality, three supreme monsters who have truly entered the realm of immortality lurk!

Being surrounded and attacked by such a massive, endless army of strange creatures, plus the possibility of being ambushed by three celestial-level monsters, the terrifying scene is chilling just to think about.

Even if Lin Hanzhou possessed extraordinary strength and unparalleled swordsmanship, he still faced a great risk of death under such a large-scale encirclement.

Lin Hanzhou would never make a losing deal like risking his life to act as a shield for the Emperor.
