Emperor Qin’s face was like a ripe date as he sat solemnly on the throne. His eyes were like lightning, overlooking the world with an unspoken authority.
"I am the Emperor, how dare you defy and attempt rebellion?"
"You were once. Now, you are not!"
Li Chen said, enunciating each word, and then he soared into the sky, as if a heavenly god reborn, directly swinging his sword in attack.
"Swish!"
Emperor Qin swiftly drew the treasure sword hanging by his throne and t Li Chen’s strike.
"Clang!"
The two swords clashed in mid-air, spraying thousands of sparks, bursting out with a dazzling brilliance.
Li Chen feigned a sword strike, his steps a blur, quickly nearing as he pierced like a shooting star.
Emperor Qin couldn’t dodge in ti and was pierced through, his body imdiately dispersing into thousands of fireflies, scattering everywhere.
Yet, the next instant, these countless fireflies reconverged, bringing Emperor Qin back to life.
"I have consud the Pill of Immortality, possessing an undying and unextinguished body; a re mortal like you cannot kill !"
Emperor Qin’s face twisted into a snarl, shouting madly.
Before the sound faded, he lifted the Great Qin Treasure Sword, transforming into a thousand layers of sword shadows, slashing towards Li Chen.
Li Chen parried with his sword, then fiercely struck the ground, spinning in mid-air, narrowly dodging the deathly strike.
Subsequently, his pupils contracted sharply, emitting two crimson rays as he began to see through the true body of Emperor Qin.
It turned out to be an illusionary body?
This revelation caused Li Chen’s heart to stir with shock.
An illusionary body, indeed a type of puppet. However, this kind of puppet doesn’t obey any commands, instead imrsed in the illusion of past glory. It’s like a curse, forever trapped, unable to extricate itself.
In such an Illusion Realm, he truly could be considered as possessing an undying body.
Unless the source of the illusionary body is destroyed!
Reflecting on this, Li Chen instinctively fixed his gaze on the teor hovering counterclockwise in the sky.
It seems to be it!
Having made up his mind in secret, Li Chen suddenly threw out the Infinite Jade Bi, transforming it into a majestic mountain that blocked out the light of the teor completely.
Instantly, the entire Underground Palace turned dark, as if it were caught in a total eclipse.
"Ah!"
Emperor Qin let out a mournful cry, his body sotis dispersing, sotis gathering. Sotis frozen by ice, sotis burned by fierce flas. As if he was to experience all cycles in the Eighteen Layers of Hell.
"The Great Qin is undefeated... I am immortal..."
With great difficulty, Emperor Qin shouted out the last vestige of his will.
Then, his body dissipated into points of starlight, finally at peace, vanishing into the sands of history.
Li Chen ford a vortex in his palm, shouting at the Infinite Jade Bi and the teor.
"Seal!"
Imdiately, he held the Imperial Jade Seal in his left hand, and raised the Great Qin Treasure Sword with his right, resembling a monarch who looked down upon the ten thousand Puppet Heavenly Soldiers below.
"From this day forth, I am your master, and I will protect the world!"
Instantly, these hundred thousand Puppet Heavenly Soldiers all knelt in unison, hailing "Your Majesty."
Even Moo Xi, normally so composed, felt taken aback at this mont. As she looked at Li Chen, she seed to find him unrecognizable.
It was as if he was no longer Li Chen, but the ancient emperor from over two thousand years ago, who swept the Eight Directions and unified the world, compelling her to feel a sense of reverence and submission.
...
anwhile, at Changbai Mountain Heavenly Pond, Star Pavilion Headquarters:
Since the dissolution of the Heavenly Net into the Star Pavilion, the already heat-glowing Star Pavilion’s strength leaped to unprecedented heights.
By right, no matter human or other demon spirits with any wit, they would not easily provoke such a colossus.
Yet there indeed was soone making trouble for the Star Pavilion.
To be precise, he was not human.
He was the Wolf Ancestor!
The Wolf Ancestor had long been in seclusion in the polar extre cold, and each retreat would last for a hundred years, so low-key it was terrifying, making many major forces forget his existence.
If not for his grandson, the Dark Wolf King, who had been active over the past century, the world might have forgotten that the Wolf Clan still existed on Earth.
The reason he erged this ti, besides avenging his grandson, was for a significant purpose.
That is, to peep at the Dragon Spiritual Vein atop the Heavenly Pool!
Moreover, the Wolf Ancestor was inherently cautious. This ti, he did not rise alone; for safety, he also invited Bear Venerable of the Demon Clan, also residing at the North Pole.
Bear Venerable’s true form was an Arctic Bear, slightly weaker in strength compared to the Wolf Ancestor, with combat power in a normal state equivalent to a human’s Late Stage Golden Core Perfect Realm.
However, if he entered a berserk state, even a Nascent Soul Great Power wouldn’t dare confront him head-on, as he’s quite ferocious.
The two demon clan greats joined forces, unstoppable in their montum, advancing all the way to the Heavenly Pool’s base.
Li Lingyun, Zixuan, and the Limp Taoist were unable to withstand them, all being injured.
The freshly hung Star Pavilion plaque was smashed to pieces.
"Immortal Master Li, you slaughtered my descendants, now it’s ti for you to repay in blood. Yet, you cowardly turtle away, the so-called number one of this era!"
The Wolf Ancestor bellowed insults, attempting to force Li Chen to appear.
As long as Li Chen did not show, both the Wolf Ancestor and Bear Venerable would remain uneasy, feeling as if the Sword of Damocles lood overhead, ready to drop at any mont, beheading them with a single strike.
After all, Li Chen was far too monstrous, a terror that even these thousand-year-old figures faltered before battle.
"You two monsters, stop spewing madness here. When our Pavilion Master returns, he’ll cook you up like the demon dragon, devouring you on the spot!"
A brainwashed disciple of Li Chen from the Star Pavilion, incensed by the Wolf Ancestor’s insult, yelled furiously, pointing at them.
However, the Wolf Ancestor didn’t even bother to glance at him; rather than respond, he simply lashed out, a wolf claw striking swiftly.
"Crack!"
"Ah!"
The disciple let out a scream of agony as he was torn apart, blood spurting everywhere.
Witnessing such a grueso scene, all were taken aback.
Li Lingyun glared fiercely and shouted, "Wolf Ancestor, you’ve lived for over a millennium, yet you stoop so low, attacking a nobody, aren’t you afraid of becoming a laughingstock?"
"Status be damned, anyone who insults ets the sa end, death!"
Before the words soaked in malice could land, the Wolf Ancestor’s beast eyes turned blood red and wild. His bloody claw was suddenly extended towards Li Lingyun’s skull.
Seeing the Wolf Ancestor suddenly attack Li Lingyun, everyone present was shocked.
Zixuan urgently cried out, "Lingyun, be careful!"
