Chapter 350: Chapter 39: Even the Divine Emperor Must Stand Helpless Among His Peers

Outside the Guangxi Realm.

Liang Hui gazed at the path before him, his palm gently sweeping through the air.

The path then vanished into the void, and a stone gate with intricate patterns appeared on the eastern side of the Divine Capital.

The stone gate opened wide, revealing a profound, dark blue interior that seemed to repel onlookers.

A deep voice arose within the hearts of all members of the Divine Court.

’Step through this gate, and you will face endless formidable enemies and countless resources. Those who contribute merit shall receive the Divine Court’s rewards.’

’If one achieves extraordinary merit, I will provide personal guidance.’

Simultaneously, the rules pertaining to the path also emerged in the hearts of all beings.

One after another, figures exchanged looks and then strode into the stone gate with heated battle intent.

In the same realm, they were not afraid of battle, and were in fact filled with fervent eagerness for combat.

Moreover, the Divine Court had provided them with backup for resurrection, leaving them with nothing to worry about.

Looking down from the vault of heavens, the towering stone gate seemed like a massive maw, ceaselessly devouring the crowds below.

"Liang Hui, let’s leave Cang Tower in the Divine Court for now," a seductive voice suggested from beside him as a graceful figure approached with leisurely steps.

"Are you also planning to enter and temper yourself?" Liang Hui’s finger lightly tapped the hilt of his sword, his expression calm as he looked at the woman clad in a black dress.

He wasn’t particularly surprised by Su Yao’s decision.

She was always a proud person, and how could she miss out on such an event?

Su Yao nodded, her gaze falling as she looked towards the stone gate.

"Mere closed-door cultivation, even with the help of a Spiritual Qi Source, would only result in a weakling with nothing but realm advancement."

"Only through the tempering of blood and fire can the spirit of a true warrior be forged."

"Furthermore, with so many backups, it would be laughable not to dare to tread on the path and compete."

The woman, indicating her Crimson Jade Sword and the green Long Banner at her waist, wore a light smile on her face.

In the next moment, her figure descended and merged into the crowd, entering the path.

Liang Hui’s expression gradually turned indifferent as he watched old friends enter the path one by one.

Qing Tian, Huang Ying, Du Shi, Bai Ye, Song Xi..., they followed their own will and set foot on this passage.

Liang Hui respected their choice and did not stop them.

This grand occasion lasted an entire month, and only then did the flow of people entering begin to thin out.

Within the Divine Court.

Liang Hui sat regally upon the Imperial Throne, looking down at the respectful old zombies below the steps.

"Most of the Divine Generals have already set foot on the path. Before Su Yao returns, you shall oversee the operations of the two realms," he said.

"Venerable, Divine Emperor’s Command!"

The old zombies knelt and kowtowed to the floor.

With a wave of his hand, a ray of Pure Yang brilliance appeared and swiftly entered the body of the old zombies.

"This is your well-deserved reward!"

"Now, you may leave."

The old zombies felt the warmth and continued purification of their blood emanating from within their bodies.

"Thump, thump, thump~"

After three resounding kowtows, they bowed and retreated.

At that moment, within the vast main hall, only Liang Hui remained, seated alone on the Imperial Throne, surveying the human world.

He directed his thoughts to the object nestled in his chest, sensing the interweaving azure lights on the Human Emperor Banner and familiarizing himself with their essence in his mind.

Martial Artist: Martial Saint (73.25%); Taoist: Pure Yang (0.03%)

He had already completed the majority of the Path of the Myriad Spirits and the way of all things.

Based on his current cultivation speed, he would break through in just over thirty years.

And with the boundless number of beings and talents participating on the newly opened path, his cultivation speed could only become faster.

As for the realm of Pure Yang, he was progressing extremely slowly.

He had advanced 0.003% three months prior, and at this rate, it would take nearly ten thousand years to reach the peak of the Pure Yang realm.

’The path of seeking Tao is fraught with difficulties, yet this makes it all the more exciting,’ Liang Hui whispered to himself.

At the same time, regarding the direction of his cultivation, he had already made a decision to fully commit to the martial artist’s path.

He aimed to understand the Path of the Myriad Spirits as quickly as possible, and to attain a perfect Taoism Enlightenment.

He ended the stream of thoughts in his mind.

The young man’s eyes, capable of piercing through the Nine Nether and the Vault of Heaven, slowly closed.

He began his cultivation and enlightenment once more.

...

Time flew by unnoticed during cultivation.

Three years after the path was opened, cultivators and Divine Generals from the Divine Court met in the central great world along the path.

A relentless bloody battle and conquest erupted.

Blood and corpses immediately covered the land as both sides fought to the brink of madness.

Countless prodigies were slaughtered, whether they were talented cultivators or the Divine Court’s chosen ones, most were gravely injured or killed.

It was only when both sides realized that they could not overcome each other in the short term that they regained their rationality.

They began to deploy troops strategically and focus on targeted breakthroughs.

After all, according to the rules of the path, those of higher realms could not attack those of lower realms, which left much room for maneuver.

For a time, large-scale killings abated, but small-scale conflicts became even more fierce.

Time continued to pass amidst such brutal killings.

One after another, demon-like beings emerged from the battles, their names spreading far and wide, instilling fear in countless creatures.

Above the vast ocean, a graceful figure walked upon the sea surface.

Her steps were slow, yet with each one, she crossed nearly ten thousand miles of ocean.

Suddenly, the lady stopped, tilting her head slightly with a hint of a smile.

"Gentlemen, aren’t you going to take action? If you don’t, I might just leave."

For a moment, besides the woman’s voice, there was no other sound between heaven and earth.

After a long while, an old voice finally rose from the ocean.

"Indeed worthy of the Divine Court’s Imperial Consort, even with us concealed here, you still detected us."

Ripples appeared in various parts of the sky as Taoists with varying but powerful auras stepped forward.

Some were indifferent, some sneered, some were calm, some puzzled, and some had hidden killing intent.

In total, nine figures emerged, surrounding the woman and cutting off all her retreats.

A Taoist dressed in green watched the woman, his gaze indifferent: "Congratulations to the Imperial Consort on reaching the Martial Saint, Yang God realm. Now, please come with us. The patriarch will surely treat you with due respect."

"Tsk! Tsk!"

"Taoist Sect of the Nine Heavens, even if your patriarch meets me, he must show respect and address me as ’Empress’."

Su Yao chuckled lightly, reaching out with her jade-like hand to touch the accessory at her waist.

Although the woman chuckled, her eyes were devoid of mirth, exuding coldness.

The Taoist Sect of the Nine Heavens consisted of nine disciples of the Mahayana Venerable, all of whom had undergone ten levels of Tribulation Crossing and were unparalleled in strength.

It was rumored that when the nine joined forces, they could battle a Mahayana.

"If the Imperial Consort refuses to come, then we must take the liberty to offend you!"

In the sky, a Taoist holding a sword scoffed.

Boom! Boom!...

Nine roars resounded, and Miraculous Treasure Divine Weapons appeared in the hands of the nine, stirring the vast rivers and boundless winds and clouds.

Space spanning a hundred thousand miles was torn asunder in an instant, revealing the dim void.

An intricate and mysterious Great Formation took shape within that void, encompassing Su Yao within.

Streams of Blood Evil energy formed within the formation, immobilizing all changes and severing the threads of life.

Kill!

Waves of Blood Evil energy pervaded the void, rolling down and obliterating all tangible and intangible things in their path.

In an instant, the void was engulfed.

"Imperial Consort, surrender, for this is our realm’s foremost killing Great Formation."

"Within the same realm, even a Human Emperor would have no choice but to bow and await death."
