Chapter 1548: Lord of Heaven
The Eternal Celestial Emperor hovered tens of thousands of feet away, the soul totems on his ancient yellow robe twisting wildly like living things, emitting silent shrieks.
The crimson divine liquid dripping from the Nine Dragons Emperor's Crown condensed into sharp bone spikes in the void, reflecting the rage and disbelief that almost burst forth from his eyes.
He stared intently at Wang Xian, his voice hoarse with rage, each word resonating with the power of the blood-red laws: "Human ants! How dare you use me, the Emperor, as bait?!"
Before he finished speaking, the crimson laws surrounding him suddenly surged violently, as if an invisible giant hand was stirring up this space.
The crimson energy exploded like boiling magma, forming countless twisted serpents of law that danced wildly in the void.
Wang Xian casually brushed the bloodstains off his robes, his movements as leisurely as if he were wiping away dust, rather than having just experienced an earth-shattering battle.
He looked up at Emperor Yongyu, his eyes filled with regret, as if looking at a work of art that had failed to meet expectations: "How could you be the bait?"
After speaking, Wang Xian opened his palm, and the chaotic ball of light in his palm slowly rotated. Ripples of time and cracks in space intertwined within it to form mysterious patterns, demonstrating the mysteries of the birth and death of the universe.
“The real bait is me—” Wang Xian’s voice was calm but carried an undeniable power. “I possess the Chaos Body, control the supreme primordial laws of time, space, stars, and chaos, and can even use secret techniques to forcibly raise my combat power to the level of ‘Ten-Turn Immortal Emperor’… With such tempting ‘bait’ laid out here, it’s quite disappointing that those old fogies hiding deep in the forbidden area can still remain calm.”
As Wang Xian spoke, Emperor Yongyu suddenly felt a chill originating from the depths of his soul, as if an ice pick had pierced his divine soul.
He turned around abruptly and saw that the crimson void behind him was rippling with fine waves, as if a thin veil was being plucked by invisible fingers.
Behind the ripples, it seemed as if countless eyes were staring at this place through the spatial rifts, each eye containing an ancient and terrifying aura, making even this 'Ten-Turn Immortal Emperor' feel a chill run down his spine.
'Are those powerful figures of his level, hidden throughout the Heavenly Realm, truly waiting for the perfect opportunity?'
This realization exploded in Emperor Yongyu's mind like a thunderbolt, causing the nine-dragon statue on his imperial crown to tremble violently, and the crimson radiance around him to instantly dim.
He had lived for dozens of epochs and had never felt such a chilling sensation, as if he, who had always thought of himself as the hunter, had now become the prey in someone else's eyes.
"You regard me as a big fish, let's see if you can withstand my wrath!"
Emperor Yongyu suddenly turned his head and looked at Wang Xian again, his eyes burning with an almost insane flame.
He couldn't accept being manipulated by an ant, nor could he accept that he might just be a pawn in someone else's plan.
With a roar, the blood-red light that had just dimmed became incredibly bright again, even more violent than before, like a volcano about to erupt.
"Why bother?"
Wang Xian sighed again, a sigh tinged with pity, as if looking at a child oblivious to his own mortality.
As soon as he finished speaking, an extremely terrifying pressure suddenly erupted throughout the entire celestial realm.
This oppressive force seemed to originate from the very source of heaven and earth, as if the Great Dao itself had descended, causing all things in heaven and earth to tremble.
The air froze instantly, the earth stopped breathing, and even the light seemed to be distorted and deformed under this oppressive force.
The Three Thousand Laws manifested in the air, transforming into countless radiant runes, like the most dazzling stars, suspended in the void, exuding a sacred and majestic aura.
These runes intertwine to form a vast network of laws that envelops the entire celestial realm.
Time and space froze instantly. All activities taking place, whether in the 'Eternal Forbidden Land' or elsewhere in the Heavenly Domain, came to a complete halt at this moment, as if time had been paused.
Emperor Yongyu abruptly stopped in his tracks, his maniacal smile instantly freezing in place, replaced by extreme shock and fear.
He felt as if the entire world was against him, an invisible force like the strongest shackles, binding him tightly, making him unable to move, and unable to mobilize even the slightest bit of his power.
His body, his laws, his soul—all seemed so small and powerless in the face of this oppressive force.
He struggled to lift his head and look up at the sky, trying to find the source of this oppressive force, but he could only see a blurry light and shadow and could not see anything clearly.
The light and shadow seemed to contain endless mysteries, causing his soul to ache.
"What...what kind of pressure is this? How can it be so terrifying?"
The voice of the Eternal Universe Immortal Emperor trembled, a fear that came from the depths of his soul.
He had lived for dozens of eras, experienced countless storms, and seen countless powerful beings, but he had never felt such a powerful force.
This power far exceeded his understanding of the 'Ten-Turn Immortal Emperor'; it seemed to be a higher level of existence, one that controlled the laws of heaven and earth and dominated the birth and death of the world.
Su Qingyan, Yan Yangjun, and the others were also trembling with fear from this oppressive aura. They felt an invisible force pressing down on their souls, causing them to involuntarily kneel on the ground, without even the courage to raise their heads.
Their bodies were trembling violently, as if they would be crushed by this oppressive force at any moment.
All the cultivators in the entire Heavenly Domain, whether ordinary cultivators in the midst of cultivation or old monsters who had been in seclusion for many years, felt this terrifying pressure at this moment. They all knelt down on the ground, prostrating themselves in worship, their hearts filled with awe and fear.
Just then, Emperor Yongyu suddenly trembled, and an expression of disbelief appeared in his eyes.
As a 'Tenth-Rank Immortal Emperor', he has an extremely keen perception of power.
He quickly discovered the source of this oppressive aura, or more accurately, he sensed a familiar aura contained within it.
"It's you!!!"
Emperor Yongyu suddenly looked at Wang Xian, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief, "This oppressive force... is actually related to you?"
He couldn't believe his own judgment. How could this overwhelming and terrifying pressure possibly come from this ant who hadn't even stepped into the 'fairyland'?
Even if this human ant defies common sense and can unleash the battle power of a 'Tenth-Rank Immortal Emperor', it is absolutely impossible for him to possess such terrifying power!
"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
Emperor Yongyu roared madly, unable to accept this fact.
In his view, Wang Xian was nothing more than a slightly stronger ant. How could he possibly possess power surpassing that of a 'Ten-Turn Immortal Emperor'?
Intense resentment and fear instantly overwhelmed Emperor Yongyu.
He knew that if this oppressive aura truly came from Wang Xian, then he would likely face certain death today.
But he was unwilling to die like this. He was a 'Ten-Turn Immortal Emperor', a being standing at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Realm, and in the future, he would be a supreme being who would challenge for the position of Heavenly Emperor!
"I do not believe!!!"
Emperor Yongyu clenched his teeth, a resolute glint in his eyes.
He suddenly raised his head, let out a long howl to the sky, his voice filled with madness and despair.
"The Origin—Burning!"
Before he finished speaking, the crimson light around Emperor Yongyu suddenly became incredibly dazzling, and a terrifying energy erupted from his body.
His body withered visibly, and his hair turned snow-white in an instant, but his aura surged wildly.
"Secret Technique - Blood Sacrifice to Heaven and Earth!" Emperor Yongyu roared, his hands rapidly forming hand seals, and countless blood-red runes flew out from his body, merging into the surrounding space.
The entire Forbidden Land of Eternal Universe began to tremble violently, and countless blood-red pillars of light surged from the ground, converging into a huge blood-red vortex that enveloped the Eternal Universe Immortal Emperor.
"Forbidden Land of Eternity, heed my command! Lend me your power to break free from your confinement!"
The voice of the Eternal Universe Immortal Emperor resounded throughout the entire 'Eternal Universe Forbidden Land', carrying an unquestionable majesty.
He communicated with the primordial power of the 'Eternal Forbidden Land', attempting to use its power to break free from this terrifying confinement.
As the Eternal Celestial Emperor summoned them, the entire 'Eternal Forbidden Land' began to stir.
The blood-red sky churned violently, emitting thunderous roars.
A deep, muffled roar came from the depths of the earth, as if a sleeping behemoth was awakening.
Countless streams of crimson energy converged from all directions and poured into the body of the Eternal Universe Immortal Emperor.
Enveloped in crimson energy, the body of the Eternal Universe Immortal Emperor grew larger and larger, eventually transforming into a crimson giant hundreds of millions of feet tall.
His body was covered with ancient runes, each one radiating a terrifying aura of destruction.
His eyes were like two blood-red suns, looking down at everything below.
"Hahaha... You ant, do you think you can trap me like this? How naive!"
The crimson giant let out a deafening laugh, his voice filled with power and confidence.
He suddenly raised his huge palm and slammed it down in the direction where Wang Xian was.
This palm strike contained the power of the Eternal Universe Immortal Emperor burning his own essence, as well as a portion of the essence power of the 'Eternal Universe Forbidden Land'. Its terrifying power was enough to easily destroy a Great Thousand World.
Space shattered inch by inch under this palm strike, forming a huge black vortex that seemed poised to devour everything.
Faced with such a terrifying attack, Wang Xian showed no panic whatsoever; in fact, a slight, contemptuous smile appeared on his lips.
He stood quietly in place, watching the enormous hand slam down on him, his eyes completely unmoved, as if he were looking at something insignificant.
Just as the blood-red giant hand was about to strike Wang Xian, Wang Xian finally moved.
Instead of dodging or taking the hit head-on, he slowly raised his right hand, palm facing up.
"The inner world... appears!"
Wang Xian spoke softly, her voice not loud, yet it clearly reached everyone's ears.
In an instant, a vast and boundless energy erupted from Wang Xian's body, a power even more terrifying and vast than the previous oppressive aura swept across the entire celestial realm.
The sky instantly changed color, the earth trembled violently, and countless law runes danced wildly in the air, emitting bursts of buzzing.
A colossal phantom world slowly emerged behind Wang Xian. This phantom world was incredibly realistic, as if it contained the mysteries of heaven and earth.
Mountains and rivers, sun, moon and stars, flowers, trees and plants, birds and beasts—everything is included.
What's most astonishing is that this illusory world has perfectly merged with the entire celestial realm, as if the celestial realm were a part of this world.
"This...this is..."
Su Qingyan, Yan Yangjun, and the others stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.
They finally understood why Wang Xian was confident in destroying the Eternal Forbidden Land, and why he dared to use himself as bait to lure in a Tenth-Rank Immortal Emperor.
"Wang Xian's inner world and the Heavenly Domain are still in the process of merging!"
The fat Taoist priest gasped in shock, his eyes filled with horror.
He finally remembered that when they besieged the Heavenly Dao Clan's Dark Hongjun, Wang Xian's inner world seemed to have merged with the Heavenly Domain, but they hadn't paid much attention to it at the time.
It now appears that Wang Xian's inner world had already merged with the Heavenly Domain back then, and had never separated from it!
"As the master of the inner world, Wang Xian is the absolute ruler of the Heavenly Domain!"
Yan Yangjun muttered to himself, his eyes filled with awe.
He finally understood where Wang Xian's confidence came from. In his own world, Wang Xian was an invincible being. Even a 'Ten-Turn Immortal Emperor' could not contend with the ruler of the world.
The crimson giant that the Eternal Celestial Emperor had transformed into also sensed this terrifying power. His movements suddenly froze, and extreme fear appeared in his eyes.
He could clearly feel that his connection with the Eternal Forbidden Land was being severed by an invisible force, and the power he gained by burning his origin was rapidly dissipating.
"No...impossible! How could your inner world possibly merge with the Heavenly Domain?!"
The crimson giant let out a desperate roar, unable to believe what he was seeing.
In his understanding, it was impossible for the inner world to merge with the main world. Even the Heavenly Dao Clan had to integrate into the main world!
Wang Xian ignored Yongyu Immortal Emperor's roar. He merely glanced at the enormous blood-red palm and then gently waved his hand.
"Suppression!"
As Wang Xian finished speaking, the inner world phantom behind him suddenly burst forth with dazzling light.
Countless chaotic divine chains flew out from the void, like giant dragons, sweeping towards the blood-red giant.
These chaotic divine chains exude an aura of creation, each containing terrifying power of laws.
The crimson giant struggled frantically, trying to resist the binding force of these chaotic divine chains, but his power seemed so insignificant in the face of Wang Xian's inner world.
The Chaos God Chains easily pierced through his crimson defenses, binding him tightly.
"what--!"
The crimson giant let out a painful howl as his body shrank continuously under the restraints of the Chaos God Chains, and his crimson energy was constantly being lost.
Soon, he transformed from a giant hundreds of millions of feet tall back to his original form, tightly bound in mid-air by the Chaos God Chains, unable to move.
Emperor Yongyu looked at everything before him, his eyes filled with despair and disbelief.
He finally realized that the gap between himself and Wang Xian was far greater than he had imagined.
Wang Xian is not only a heaven-defying prodigy capable of unleashing the battle power of a 'Ten-Turn Immortal Emperor', but also a ruler who controls the Heavenly Realm!
