Chapter 1572: Chapter 962: We Will Never Hold the Emperor Back_2

However, at this moment, regardless of the system, all are being annihilated, mercilessly obliterated by the power of the Mysticshade Blood Pearl, as if in the ancient history of the Immortal Domain, these two systems never appeared.

Each forced obliteration of a layer causes the realms and power of the Immortal Kings to fall by a layer.

The immortal power within them begins to scatter, and their once indestructible bodies show cracks, resembling ancient steles eroded by time, gradually losing luster and hardness.

Simultaneously, signs of aging become evident on their bodies, previously flawless flesh turns lifeless, as if all vitality and moisture have been drained, becoming shriveled and withered.

Moreover, their eyes become turbid and unclear.

Some of the Immortal Kings with less foundation even bleed repeatedly.

Each of these Immortal Kings was once a dominant figure, a legendary existence with eternal glory, but at this moment, they are as insignificant and powerless as ants,

whether vitality or realm, all swiftly regress, in the span of a night, reaching the twilight of their years.

And those Immortal Kings with higher foundation, especially the giants, although barely able to stand steadily, their faces are filled with terror.

They are acutely aware that although they have not been affected yet, with time, as the cultivation system completely collapses, they too will not escape; it’s only a matter of how long they can hold on.

This method is too defying, capable of annihilating everything of theirs across countless ages, turning their long path into nothing, unimaginable.

...

Meanwhile.

Heavenly Court.

The mountains tower majestically, like sharp blades piercing the clouds, between the peaks, dense immortal qi wafts, auspicious birds chirp.

Although this place is not as good as Liu Village, after Shi Hao reached the Quasi-Immortal Emperor, the Dao Rhythm Heaven formed, making this place the blessed land second only to Liu Village.

However, with the descent of the Mysticshade Blood Pearl, the tranquility here was instantly shattered.

"Buzz!"

The guarding formation of the Heavenly Court was passively activated at the first moment, a dazzling light shot up to the sky, enveloping the entire Heavenly Court.

Immediately, a Golden Dragon roared out from the formation, its scales gleaming brilliantly, as dazzling as the sun.

This Golden Dragon is unusually huge; each scale contains endless power and majesty, it roared, the sound deafening, echoing through the entire Heavenly Court.

The eyes of the Golden Dragon are majestic and sharp, like two blades, coldly gazing at the Mysticshade Blood Pearl in the dome.

In deafening roars, its colossal body swung, heavy like a mountain, and it charged fiercely at the Mysterious Pearl.

Divine Might surged, ancient and primal aura spread, causing awe and reverence in people’s hearts.

Even an Immortal King must defer a bit.

However, under the overwhelming pressure of the Mysticshade Blood Pearl, this Golden Dragon seemed unusually fragile.

Its body in mid-air ground by an invisible force, as though eroded by time, instantly losing all luster, like petrification.

"Roar!"

The giant dragon howled mournfully, the sound reverberating through the Heavenly Court, boundless in sorrow, and eventually crumbled into countless light particles, dissipating between heaven and earth.

Deep within the Heavenly Court, inside a cave dwelling on a certain mountain peak, Shi Hao is immersed in closed-door cultivation.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes.

"What’s going on, the Mountain Protection Array I set up has been breached?"

"No, this fluctuation..."

Shi Hao frowned slightly, sensing the ominous aura permeating the air, his expression immediately becoming solemn.

"Such dense ominous aura, could it be that the Bizarre Clan has come again to attack the Immortal Domain?"

With the thought falling.

Shi Hao immediately ended his closed-door cultivation, his figure flashed, and he exited the cave.

He wore a black robe, long hair draped over his shoulders, eyes deep as an abyss, exceptionally handsome.

Sensing something.

Upon exiting the cave, Shi Hao directly looked up at the sky.

His face changed drastically.

As a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, what he can perceive is naturally far beyond that of an Immortal King.

The blood, the fluctuations it emanated, had already far exceeded the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Realm, even the Immortal Emperor’s Realm.

"Senior Liu once said, the reason the Bizarre Clan can annihilate one era after another, obliterate one Great Thousand World after another, besides the sinister mysterious power, the more important reason is that behind the Bizarre Clan stand several inconceivable existences."

"Could it be... the existences behind the Bizarre Clan have acted?"

Stone Hao’s thoughts were turning rapidly. Along his journey, he had ascended step by step, not only relying on unparalleled power and an invincible belief in the world but also requiring the keen insight to perceive everything.

Very quickly, he sorted out the cause and effects.

Stone Hao’s expression was unprecedentedly grave.

If things were as he suspected, it was definitely an unprecedented catastrophe at hand.

He immediately went to his residence but did not find Fire Spirit, Yun Xi, or others.

At the same time, his divine sense enveloped the entire Heavenly Court, yet he still did not find them.

"Hmm? Not here?"

Stone Hao’s expression was surprised, and he was instantly worried, sending a voice transmission to the Lord of the Forbidden Area.

"Senior, did my wife and child go out?"

The Lord of the Forbidden Area was only in a primordial spirit state, unable to manifest under the dark blood’s inversion; otherwise, his mind would be polluted instantly. Hearing Stone Hao’s divine sense voice transmission, he immediately replied, "Today is Emperor Gu’s wedding day. Liu Village sent invitations, and they all went to attend the ceremony."

When Stone Hao heard that Fire Spirit and others went to Liu Village, his heart relaxed slightly, as it was much safer there than in the Heavenly Court.

But soon, he returned to his senses: Brother Gu is getting married?

However, there was no time to think more about it. Stone Hao immediately soared, heading to Liu Village.

In such urgent times, he needed to ask Senior Liu about any arrangements, and even if there were none, they should unite in Liu Village to face the great enemy together; they must not be dispersed.

Only in this way might there be a chance for survival.

...

...

"It seems the Bizarre Clan is relentless in their schemes."

In a not-so-large pavilion, Jiang Hui’s expression was calm. As he spoke, he had already stood up from the jade stool below him.

His eyes gleamed, with what seemed like two streaks of lightning swirling in the centers, watching intently at the mysticshade blood already nearly covering the entire sky of the Immortal Domain.

Indeed, it was the Sacrificial Path State,

even a single drop of blood was so immense.

The Immortal Domain was not merely a single domain; it also contained many small worlds within. Yet, as the dark blood covered it, even those small worlds within were enveloped in darkness.

"Fellow Daoists, let me take the initiative." Jiang Hui’s robe swayed as he withdrew his gaze and smiled slightly at both Emperor Huanfen and Willow God.

As his voice fell, Jiang Hui stepped forward.

"Boom——"

Gales swirled, and the flow of wind surged like a tide. His robe, whiter than snow by a shade, fluttered noisily, as unparalleled power forcibly tore open a corner of the tidal darkness.

Infinite distances were instantly reduced to mere inches.

Jiang Hui was shrouded in radiant light, with emperor’s might vast and boundless. With each step he took, crimson light sprang forth, and Dao flowers bloomed, utmost brilliance, as though every step trod upon the long river of time, causing ripples upon ripples, echoing with the heavens and earth, making all things tremble lightly.

And behind him, a figure appeared incomparably tall, like the only True God between heaven and earth, inspiring awe in people.

Yet even so, in front of that drop of black blood pearl, Jiang Hui nonetheless appeared insignificant.

The power of the true blood condensed from three Sacrificial Path State existences was unimaginable. Even if Jiang Hui activated the Dharma Manifestation Heaven and Earth, he would be forcibly suppressed by the rules held within that mysticshade blood pearl.

He immediately reacted,

This mysticshade blood pearl’s origin was likely extraordinary, and it might very well be the true blood of that Phantom Primordial Ancestor, indicating his own miscalculation.

The Phantom Primordial Ancestor was definitely not one to pursue unrealistic goals, cautious to a finger-pointing degree; the other party never intended to overlook this sudden rising force.

"Respect to the Emperor."

Upon seeing Jiang Hui’s arrival, the faces of the many Immortal Kings instantly blossomed with joy.

They all bowed in salute, their voices pious.

In the eyes of the many Immortal Kings, the Master of the Holy Land was not only the strongest in the entire Immortal Domain but also the Sea-calming Divine Needle leading them to resist the Bizarre Clan and guard the tranquility of this Immortal Domain.

At this moment, they could still stabilize their minds without panicking because they had this presence supporting them.

At the same time, the many Immortal King ancestors could perceive that it was precisely because of this presence that the emperor’s might, vast as an abyssal sea, invisibly blocked part of that sinister power of the mysterious obsidian blood pearl.

Otherwise, it would absolutely not be so lightly brushed off. As soon as the dark blood appeared, countless weaker beings would be instantly drained of their life force, their primordial spirits confined.

Jiang Hui nodded slightly, his gaze slowly sweeping over each Immortal King, speaking calmly, "Everyone, this great catastrophe today is the Bizarre Clan’s desire to completely obliterate our domain. We must do our utmost."

"We will not hold the Emperor back."

The many Immortal Kings spoke in unison immediately.
