Chapter 158: The Eldest Senior Brother of Falling Emperor Mountain (23) |
Demon Abyss Forbidden Zone.
Fang Bubai grew increasingly powerful. It seemed as though entire universes were born and destroyed around his body. The vast sea of stars was nothing more than a corner of the scenery behind him.
"Contemporary Great Emperor, do you truly intend to fight us to the death?"
Nearly twenty thousand years! Not a single day had they been able to sleep. Even with the strictest conservation, they had been pushed to the brink by Fang Bubai.
Fang Bubai remained unmoved.
"Contemporary Great Emperor, if we trigger a Dark Turmoil, you must consider how terrifying such a Dark Turmoil would be. Do you think the other forbidden zones will obediently remain in their territories? Once we drag you into a Dark Turmoil, they will act without restraint against the living beings of the universe. You will become the sinner of all races!"
A supreme from the Demon Abyss Forbidden Zone issued a threat.
Fang Bubai said indifferently, "This Emperor's mission is to suppress all of you. What does the death of countless living beings have to do with me?"
"Heh, contemporary Great Emperor, you really are cold-blooded enough. Even when I was an Emperor, I would never abandon all living beings. I would have ushered in a prosperous era."
Fang Bubai's expression remained unchanged as he replied, "Hypocrite. Everything you did back then was merely whitewashing the truth. As long as this Emperor can destroy the Demon Abyss Forbidden Zone, what does public condemnation matter? Let them curse me. If my name being cursed can cause a few more of you to die, then even if I am reviled for ten thousand generations, this Emperor does not care."
At least ten Supremes resided in the Demon Abyss Forbidden Zone. If such a number joined forces, they could fight a newly ascended Great Emperor to the death. If they allied with several other powerful forbidden zones as well… After his death, would a new Great Emperor even be born in this universe?
"Contemporary Great Emperor, we are merely rearing some living beings to sustain our vitality and survive. We have never harmed the myriad races of the universe, never obstructed your path to the Dao, and never obstructed the emperors of past generations. What crime have we committed? We were once Emperors too!"
A supreme within the forbidden zone shouted, his voice filled with unwillingness.
Fang Bubai said coldly, "The mere fact that you are still alive is the greatest crime!"
"Contemporary Emperor, can you truly not take even one step back?" another Supreme questioned from the forbidden zone.
Mysterious Yellow Origin Qi swirled around Fang Bubai. The ten thousand daos of the universe trembled as he spoke calmly yet icily, "If you want to fight, then fight. When all of you are dead, this Emperor will withdraw!"
Eleven figures that shook the entire universe flew out from the Demon Abyss Forbidden Zone.
"Then let's fight. A Great Emperor? It's not as if we have never reached that level before!"
"Since you refuse to let us live in peace, don't blame us for slaughtering an Emperor and bathing in emperor blood!"
"..."
The Demon Abyss Forbidden Zone had completely lost control. The eleven Supremes chose to fight with their lives on the line.

Azure Nether Dao Domain. Falling Emperor Mountain.
Su Chen felt a terrifying power sweeping across the entire universe, one that made him tremble and left him unable to generate any thought of resistance.
"The Demon Abyss Forbidden Zone has erupted into turmoil. The Emperor War has fully broken out!"
Su Chen knew exactly how dreadful the consequences would be. When Fang Bubai had been keeping them in check, the forbidden zones across the universe had remained deathly silent.
Now that Fang Bubai was facing the full counterattack of the entire Demon Abyss Forbidden Zone, those Supremes who had not fed since the era of Divine Evolution Great Emperor were probably starving beyond measure. They would eagerly emerge to plunder all living beings. All sorts of evil entities would crawl out as well.
Soon, a terrifying existence appeared from a forbidden land within the Azure Nether Dao Domain. The area around him was dry and lifeless. With a casual grasp, he seized millions of living beings and swallowed them in one gulp. A trace of rosiness returned to his body as he laughed loudly, "Refreshing! Truly refreshing… However…"
The terrifying being tilted his head, a cruel smile spreading across his lips.
"It seems I have discovered something interesting."
His figure flashed and vanished, reappearing in the sky above Falling Emperor Mountain.
"I don't sense that old ghost's aura. That old ghost is dead! No, there isn't even the aura of an Emperor Weapon. Falling Emperor Mountain's Emperor Weapon is gone as well! Heaven is truly helping me!"
The terrifying being laughed heartily.
At that moment, he noticed two figures walking out from Falling Emperor Mountain.
"Two Great Saints? You think the two of you can challenge me, a Quasi-Emperor?"
The terrifying being looked at them with utter disdain.
Su Chen turned to Lin Changsheng and said, "Changsheng, I have never taught you anything before. Watch this battle carefully today."
Lin Changsheng nodded.
At that moment, Su Chen spread his hands wide. A golden giant sword that pierced heaven and earth rose from the ground. In this instant, every sword dao cultivator in the entire Azure Nether Dao Domain mysteriously saw a golden giant sword appear before their eyes. At this moment, the only Dao that remained in the entire Azure Nether Dao Domain was one.
The sword Dao!
"This is… the great completion of the Innate Supreme Sword Body! Nangong Chen has stepped into that taboo realm!"
All the old monsters of the Azure Nether Dao Domain were filled with horror.
The terrifying being's expression changed drastically. "I didn't expect that even after that old ghost died and Falling Emperor Mountain lost its Emperor Weapon, someone like you would still appear!"
A peak Great Saint with a great completion divine body possessed the strength to threaten him.
"Even so, what of it?"
The terrifying being had no intention of letting Su Chen go. A great completion divine body was far more nourishing than any divine medicine!
The battle between the two shook heaven and earth, shattering countless seas of stars.
Su Chen severed the terrifying being's head and obliterated his body. The head fled directly into the starry sky and disappeared without a trace.
Beyond the domain, in many star seas, supremes opened their mouths and devoured all living beings in entire star domains. In the starry sky, Quasi-Emperors also emerged, wielding Extreme Dao Emperor Weapons as they prepared to fight with everything they had.
A miserable scream rang out from one star sea.
"Divine Evolution, you damned old thing! Even in death, you refuse to rest!"
A middle-aged man with silver hair, looking both god-like and demonic, was imprinted in the void. He wore tattered daoist robes and held a precious pagoda as he battled a Supreme.
"Li Shenhua… he is still alive?"
Su Chen was somewhat surprised.
In the direction of the Azure Nether Dao Domain, an elderly Quasi-Emperor holding an Emperor Weapon also stood majestically in the starry sky, blocking the path of a supreme.
The same scene played out in the Black Nether Demon Domain. After struggling against each other for countless tens of thousands of years, the remaining Quasi-Emperors of the Black Nether Demon Domain and the Azure Nether Dao Domain showed unprecedented unity at this moment. They joined forces to stall one supreme and buy time.
In this universe, at this moment, all races shared the same will and forged an unprecedented conviction!
Even so, too many supremes had appeared. In addition to the eleven from the Demon Abyss Forbidden Zone, there were seven more, not to mention the various Quasi-Emperors and Saints that had also emerged.
In this era, aside from some self-sealed old fellows, the other Quasi-Emperors had either died or reached the end of their lifespans and were about to perish. The universe was nearing the end of the dharma era, and the number of powerhouses among the myriad races was far too few.
"I want to break through to Quasi-Emperor!"
The deaths of countless living beings across the universe gave Su Chen a clear opportunity to break through. The dao that suppressed all beings pressed down toward him, yet it could not block his resolve.
The sea of lightning surged, drawing the attention of one forbidden zone powerhouse after another, including Quasi-Emperors. They planned to dismember Su Chen the moment he broke through… A Quasi-Emperor with a great completion divine body was almost equivalent to half an undying divine medicine.
Even more terrifying gazes had locked onto Su Chen.
