Boom!

The void trembled violently as the "Hao Tian Tower" erupted with endless divine light, revealing a force so vast and unparalleled that it seemed as though several Great Thousand Worlds were crushing down upon everything.

Emperor Dao dominated the sky, with imperial might pervading everything, suppressing all other Daos; large areas of the void directly disintegrated.

An ordinary cultivator would surely be suppressed by Hao Tian, but Xingtian, who cultivated the War Great Dao, would only grow stronger in battle under such circumstances.

"Kill!"

With a furious roar from Xingtian, tens of thousands of miles of the void trembled, the Nine Layers Heaven shook, his fighting spirit soared into the skies, and with the great axe in his hand, he directly struck at the "Hao Tian Tower."

Boom.

The "Hao Tian Tower" summoned by Hao Tian was directly blown away, collapsing vast spans of the void.

The next moment, Xingtian took the initiative to attack, stepping forward with a power that shocked the world, unleashing a force capable of annihilating the Great Thousand Universe, crashing down on Hao Tian in an instant.

"Hahaha! Thrilling! Exhilarating!"

Xingtian grew more excited as the battle went on, as if he was enveloped by the auspicious lights of creation, as if bathing in the Pangu Essence Blood, his aura becoming stronger with the battle.

Seeing this, Hao Tian did not dare to be careless, hurriedly summoning a High Grade Innate Spirit Sword, his "Hao Tian Sword," which had been taken away by Evil Corpse Kui Gang, affecting his current strength significantly.

"Kill!"

Wherever Xingtian’s great axe passed, dimensions of space were instantaneously obliterated, Chaos Qi surged wildly, and an unmatched might shook the Great Thousand Universe.

In an instant, the heavens and earth were turned upside down, the void shattered, and black holes emerged continuously.

"Heavenly Emperor Dharma Form!"

Hao Tian also showed his true power, no longer holding anything back. The purple glow obscured the sun, auspicious energy filled the sky, and the golden Dharma Form seemed to suppress everything in the world.

The palaces of the Heavenly Court, most of them were affected by the two’s Divine Skills, turned into ruins.

Gold Star Taibai and others looked at each other in dismay; they knew that no matter who won or lost today, the dignity of the Heavenly Court would suffer a severe blow.

But none of them dared to intervene; they were well aware that with their strength, they simply could not partake in the battle between the two.

Only Ma Yi, the Great Divine Power, showed a look of excitement, with a faint gleam in his eyes, almost wishing that the fierce battle would spread to the entire Heavenly Court.

"No!"

Gold Star Taibai was worried: "We have to find a way to lend a hand to His Majesty!"

For some reason, Hao Tian had not resorted to the "Hao Tian Sword." Relying solely on a High Grade Innate Spirit Sword, he was already gradually falling behind.

But Ma Yi, the Great Divine Power, had a different opinion: "His Majesty must have a well-thought-out plan! That’s why he has not used the Hao Tian Sword yet, preparing for a deadly strike. We should not interfere in their battle!"

He would love for the two to be mutually wounded, even for Hao Tian to fall directly at the hands of Xingtian, because only then would he have the opportunity to vie for the position of Heavenly Emperor.

There was something he had not told anyone, he had recently acquired a chance and was now a Quasi-Saint who had severed one Corpse.

As long as Hao Tian fell, or if he was seriously injured, he could easily become the Heavenly Emperor by contacting a few of his old friends.

He had always kept his strength secret, not even sharing with his brother, the Great Divine Power Qing Yi, to deliver a fatal blow to Hao Tian at the crucial moment.

"Die!"

With a cold laugh, Xingtian’s great axe fell, directly breaching Hao Tian’s defenses.

Emperor’s Blood was scattered, falling into the Primordial Land, forming pools of blood, collapsing a vast stretch of mountains, while many Great Divine Ability wielders watched with interest.

In the Primordial World, many harbored ambitions, and few dared to act against Hao Tian. However, those who wished for Hao Tian’s demise were as numerous as hairs on an ox.

With Hao Tian’s death, surely there would be a rise of heroes, and countless powerful beings competing for the position of the Heavenly Emperor.

"Kill him!"

Many powerful beings, even secretly, were cheering for Xingtian. With Lady Houtu’s protection, there was no need to fear Daoist Ancestor Hong Jun, who was behind Hao Tian.

After all, even though Heavenly Dao and Earth Dao had not completely fallen out with each other, their discontent had been fully exposed through several conflicts.

"Your Majesty!"

Seeing Hao Tian severely injured, Gold Star Taibai could no longer sit still, summoned the "Taibai Immortal Sword," and struck Xingtian with a shocking blow.

"Seeking death!"

Xingtian did not expect Gold Star Taibai, a Daluo Golden Immortal, to dare to act against him, and immediately swung his great axe at Gold Star Taibai.

The gap between their strengths was like that of heaven and earth. With a casual strike, Xingtian obliterated Gold Star Taibai’s full-powered Divine Skill in the void.

And Gold Star Taibai himself was directly split into a palace by Xingtian’s axe light.

"This is outrageous!"

However, Gold Star Taibai’s intervention did buy Hao Tian a fleeting chance to catch his breath, as nine Golden Dragons bombarded Xingtian’s body instantly.

"Bring it on!"

Xingtian bellowed like thunder, advancing rather than retreating, confronting Hao Tian’s Divine Skills head-on; the void trembled violently as two overwhelmingly powerful auras intertwined.

Boom!

With a step forward, Xingtian stood above all heavens, his fighting spirit causing the void to tremble continuously, and his great axe emitted an unprecedented brilliance.

Again, the great axe swept across the sky, destroying everything in front of it, obliterating large areas of the void, and the palaces of the Heavenly Court were reduced to ruins in the blink of an eye.

"Meet your demise!"

But Hao Tian had also been preparing for his killing move; just as Xingtian’s great axe fell, suddenly, a valiant man appeared beside him.

This man bore a resemblance to Hao Tian, his Good Corpse. As soon as he made his move, a fearsome divine light suddenly shot towards Xingtian’s eyes.

"Hao Tian Mirror!"

Caught off guard, Xingtian’s spiritual sense was instantly sealed. By the time he tried to resist, Hao Tian’s sword light had already beheaded him.

"Huh!"

Seeing this, Hao Tian couldn’t help but exhale a breath of turbid air. Xingtian’s strength had surpassed his expectations, but in the end, he still proved to be slightly more powerful.

"Xingtian, are you convinced now?"

He knew that Xingtian was not dead; if Ancestor Witches were so easy to kill, they wouldn’t be called Ancestor Witches. He simply wanted to force Xingtian to retreat!

After all, with Lady Houtu behind Xingtian, he didn’t want to offend them completely.

"No way!"

Xingtian let out an angry roar and once again swung his huge axe, charging towards Hao Tian.

"Come for your head!"

"Come for your head!"

The Witch Clan possessed formidable vitality; as long as the True Spirit was not extinguished, they could even achieve Blood Rebirth after decapitation. Losing a head was not a fatal injury for Xingtian and didn’t greatly impact his strength.

"Obstinate and incorrigible!"

Hao Tian couldn’t help but rage with fury. When he and Xingtian were in combat, Good Corpse directly made a move, throwing Xingtian’s head towards the Primordial Land and evolving a great mountain to suppress his head firmly.

Ordinary beings, even those of the Witch Clan who were said not to cultivate Primordial Spirits, would typically anchor their True Spirits within the Mud Pill Palace at the core of their heads.

He wanted to see, without the control of the True Spirit, how Xingtian’s body could still boast and swagger.

Unfortunately...

He miscalculated one thing!

Originally, Xingtian was just a Great Witch. It was only after comprehending the War Great Dao and discerning the Method with Primordial Spirit that Emperor Jiang and others decided to cultivate him as an Ancestor Witch.

His True Spirit was different from that of other members of the Witch Clan; it was not anchored within the Mud Pill Palace.

"Kill!"

Xingtian’s whole body’s Principles trembled, and his fighting spirit soared to the sky. His nipples instantly transformed into eyes, and the navel at the location of his Dantian also immediately evolved into a mouth.

"What?"

Hao Tian found it somewhat hard to believe.

He didn’t expect that after Xingtian’s head was suppressed, he would still possess such formidable strength.

The War Great Dao vibrated across millions of miles of the void, like the primordial sound from the opening of heaven and earth, causing a thrill of shock to pass through Hao Tian’s heart.

At this moment, what he faced seemed not to be Xingtian, but an unkillable Chaos Demon God.

Boom!

Terrifying axe light once again descended, cutting through the Great Thousand Universe, bursting open vast stretches of the void, which even contained a sort of profound mystery of heaven and earth’s creation.

"Hahaha! Exhilarating! Exhilarating! It’s been a long time since I’ve had such an unbridled battle!"

After losing his head, Xingtian’s fighting spirit surged even higher, as if some shackles had been released, his huge axe constantly clashing with Hao Tian’s long sword.

The two of them fought all the way to the edge of the Primordial World, almost entering the Chaotic Universe.

"Damn it!"

Hao Tian did not want to continue entangling with Xingtian at all. He only wanted to escape from him, but Xingtian did not give him the slightest chance to break away.

The Three Pure Ones, Jieyin, Zhunti, and Houtu, also noticed this great battle. Although Yuanshi Tianzun very much hoped that Hao Tian would fall, the Heavenly Dao did not permit his fall at the hands of the Witch Clan.

The Heavenly Emperor, after all, was a son of the Heavenly Dao, representing it to a certain extent. If he were to fall at the hands of Xingtian, wouldn’t that be a slap in the face of the Heavenly Dao?

"Daoist, isn’t this a bit too much?"

Taiching Laozi looked towards Lady Houtu: "If Hao Tian were to fall at the hands of Xingtian, it is inevitable that Heavenly Dao and Earth Dao would erupt in a great war!"

These Saints, united with the Heavenly Dao or the Earth Dao, only wanted to use it for their comprehension of the Great Dao and did not want to fight to the death for the others.

Thus, even as Heavenly Dao and Earth Dao repeatedly confronted each other, their actual moves were often limited and ineffective.

"Xingtian, stop!"

Lady Houtu’s voice resonated in the void. On hearing her words, Xingtian immediately stopped his movements, followed by raising his axe against Hao Tian again.

Hao Tian’s face changed drastically.

He thought that upon hearing Lady Houtu’s voice, Xingtian would not continue to strike, but the latter, like a possessed demon, completely ignored it.

Caught off guard, he was directly hit by Xingtian’s axe light, suffering extremely severe Dao injuries, and Good Corpse was utterly obliterated in the axe light.

"Xingtian!"

Lady Houtu was furious as well.

She didn’t expect that after hearing her voice, Xingtian would continue to make moves against Hao Tian.

Boom!

Heaven and earth trembled, the "Reincarnation Plate" instantly suppressed down, rolling Xingtian into it, and numerous reincarnation chains tightly bound his body.

"Tribulation Qi confuses the mind!"

After a careful examination of Xingtian’s condition, Lady Houtu furrowed her brows slightly. She actually sensed a hint of Tribulation Qi on Xingtian’s body.

"What?"

The other Saints also felt a shock in their hearts upon hearing this. Generally speaking, the situation of Tribulation Qi confusing the mind only appeared during cosmic calamities.

Now, with the world being clear and bright, though occasional conflicts existed, they had not escalated to the level of cosmic calamities, had they?

Only Taiching Laozi seemed thoughtful and spoke slowly: "Tribulation Qi confusing the mind; there is another circumstance, which is someone secretly guiding it behind the scenes!"

Just like Luo Hou in the past, secretly instigating the relationship between the three clans, breaking the fragile balance of the three, and leading the dispute of the three clans into the great Dragon-Han Calamity.

"Let’s watch for changes!"

Yuanshi Tianzun also slowly opened his mouth. He also thought of something. He remembered Taiching Laozi once mentioned that the Curse Demon God might have not perished.

Without catching the culprit red-handed, they could only react passively to any changes.

The Saints each returned to their Daoist domains.

As for Hao Tian, as soon as he returned to the Heavenly Court, he went into seclusion in Turquoise Pool. The Dao injuries he suffered this time were even more severe than the counteraction from Evil Corpse.

"Opportunities don’t come often, when missed they won’t return!"

Seeing this, Ma Yi, the Great Divine Power, his eyes glowing even more mysteriously, a trace of Tribulation Qi surging forth, then prepared to leave the Heavenly Court to seek several Daoist allies to make a move against Hao Tian.

He knew that even if he killed Hao Tian by himself, he would not be able to sit securely on the throne of the Heavenly Emperor.

Therefore, he planned to find several Great Divine Ability who were not inferior to him in strength and also coveted the position of the Heavenly Emperor, to partition the authority of the Heavenly Emperor together.

"If the Heavenly Court can have a Heavenly Emperor, and have Great Emperors like the Eastern Qinghua and the Southern Longevity, then surely it wouldn’t mind having a few more Heavenly Emperors!"

Ma Yi, as one of the three thousand guests of the Purple Cloud Palace, had a good understanding of those Great Divine Ability in the Primordial World who coveted the Heavenly Emperor’s position. He didn’t know them thoroughly, but he had a rough idea in his mind.

Before long, he found five "like-minded" Great Divine Ability. They would assist him in eliminating Hao Tian, and then they would jointly divide the authority of the Heavenly Emperor.
