The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 975: Breakthrough of Destiny

Chapter 975: Chapter 975: Breakthrough of Destiny

Between the mountains, a strong beam of light suddenly shot out, rocks flew, earth shook, and countless birds were startled into flight.

A vast and tremendous momentum burst forth, altering the blue sky and the drifting clouds.

The imperial daughter quickly appeared atop a mountain peak, excitement written all over her face as she murmured, "The Great Emperor has finally emerged from seclusion!"

With her words still hanging in the air, a blood-red figure leapt out from the billowing dust, shooting through the sky like an arrow released from its bow, leaving behind a pitch-black spatial rift.

The imperial daughter hurriedly followed, worried. Could something have happened to the Great Emperor?

On the desolate Juetian Plain, a figure suddenly flew out, hovering forty thousand meters above ground, clad in a red robe that fluttered loudly in the wind, hair billowing—it was the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny.

At this moment, the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny’s pupils were blood-red, radiating a terrifying and ferocious light, and the veins on his face were faintly visible, creating a truly horrifying appearance.

In his bloodstained red robe, he appeared as if he had bathed in blood.

The Emperor of Heavenly Destiny seemed like a different person, having shifted from his previously graceful demeanor to a formidable and murderous fiend.

"This power... the legendary entering the realm of the sage..."

He gazed at his own hands, muttering to himself, the ferocity in his eyes undiminished.

BOOM—

Thunderous rumbles came from the sea of clouds above. To break through and enter the realm of the sage was to invite a celestial trial, one that would bring destruction of heaven and earth.

In the Xuandang Greater World, no creature had broken through to the realm of the sage for a hundred thousand years. The long-absent trial of the sage had finally arrived, and the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny, far from panic, became even more serene.

"Transcendental breakthrough to the sage realm, condensing saintly bones... an unparalleled magnitude of power..."

The Emperor of Heavenly Destiny, his face full of enchantment, was absorbed in the illusion brought about by his breakthrough.

The Princess materialized out of thin air beside him, asking with concern, "Great Emperor, are you alright?"

She could feel that the aura of the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny had undergone a complete transformation, becoming exceedingly fierce and malevolent when compared to before.

The Emperor of Heavenly Destiny turned to look at her, smiling, "What could be wrong with me? I’ve just made a breakthrough, that’s all. In the future, without relying on others, breaking through heaven is also expected."

At these words, the imperial daughter was overjoyed. The Emperor of Heavenly Destiny’s confidence was as strong as ever, and his tone was as usual, which assured her he had not fallen into devilry, and she was naturally pleased.

"You should retreat first, the heavenly trial is coming."

The Emperor of Heavenly Destiny looked up at the rolling thunderclouds and spoke. The Princess nodded and hesitated no longer, as that Tianwei made even her, a Daluo beginning immortal, feel fear.

The heavenly trial of entering the realm of the sage was unimaginable to the creatures of the Xuandang Greater World.

The rumbling heavenly thunder gathered, cloaking the hundred-mile radius of the sky, and it was still expanding rapidly.

"Demon Emperor... Heavenly Emperor of Qin... I will once again prove that I am the foremost in the world."

The Emperor of Heavenly Destiny looked up, his disheveled hair fluttering, his eyes filled with confidence and arrogance.

...

Atop Saint Emperor Peak, Qin Jun was in Zhu Yanqing’s sleeping chamber, keeping her company.

Feeling the slight movements inside her swollen belly, Qin Jun experienced a wonder that kept him constantly smiling.

"With all this movement, it must surely be a willful little princess."

Qin Jun laughed, to which Zhu Yanqing rolled her eyes and said exasperatedly, "How can Your Majesty be so sure? Could it not be a son?"

In the Xuandang Greater World, the notion of male superiority over females was still rather prevalent, especially among the households of the powerful.

Although female cultivators were not discriminated against, parents still hoped for a son as their firstborn.

"Regardless of the child’s gender, they are my flesh and blood." Qin Jun shrugged and laughed. Even at birth, he could already sense an aura stronger than ordinary people, a clear sign of his child’s extraordinary talents.

A future prodigy.

Take the Ji Family, for example; even though the bloodline of the Extreme Flame Demon God had grown weak, the family still boasted numerous geniuses.

Just then, Qin Jun’s brows furrowed, and Zhu Yanqing also frowned delicately.

They both felt an oppressive sensation weighing on their hearts. While not overly intense, it was undeniably present.

"I will go out and take a look."

Qin Jun spoke softly, then stood up and walked out of the palace.

Zhu Yanqing touched her belly, watching him walk out, with not a trace of worry on her face.

To this day, Qin Jun had become her sky. As long as he was there, no disaster could frighten her.

After stepping out of the palace, Qin Jun’s steps halted at the stone stairs. Following his gaze, the sky was tinged with bloodred light. It was not yet dusk, yet it held the tragic beauty of twilight.

"What’s going on?"

Qin Jun murmured with a frown, his face filled with confusion.

Bai Ze suddenly appeared beside him and said softly, "Your Majesty need not worry, this pressure is very far from us."

Very far?

Qin Jun raised an eyebrow. Could it be that a Daluo immortal was fighting in the distance?

"Wait a moment..."

Qin Jun suddenly thought of something, and his expression changed.

He had also made a breakthrough into the holy realm and knew that during crossing tribulation, the aura would spread throughout the world, declaring the birth of one entering the realm.

Among the native powerhouses of the Xuandang Great World, who had the qualifications to break into the holy realm?

Emperor of Heavenly Destiny!

Qin Jun’s eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly as he said softly, "Interesting. I shall see what kind of storm you can stir up after entering the realm."

Without Patriarch Bodhi lifting a finger, just depending on Nangong Yifeng of Steal Moon Sect, they could pin down the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny and beat him on the ground.

So even if the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny broke through into the holy realm, Qin Jun was not the least bit worried.

"Entering the realm?"

Bai Ze was moved. She couldn’t help but wonder, who was breaking through into the holy realm?

So she began to calculate with her fingers, and soon, her expression changed slightly.

...

In the Donghuang Territory, inside the rebuilt Demon Emperor Palace.

Whoosh--

The true solar fire illuminated the palace. Donghuang Taiyi was seated in the air, opening his eyes with interest, "Someone is breaking into the holy realm? Intriguing."

The aura of the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny had transformed, preventing Donghuang Taiyi from recognizing it immediately.

However, with his late-stage holy realm cultivation, a newly advanced holy realm powerhouse wouldn’t catch his eye.

"It seems it’s time to leave the Xuandang Great World," Donghuang Taiyi murmured to himself, eager to restore his former life’s cultivation, which he simply couldn’t achieve within the Xuandang Great World.

He needed to venture beyond the heavens, to seek out the sun.

To use the solar fire to enhance his own cultivation.

Breaking through the heavens was difficult, but to make his way out was not akin to ascending to the skies.

After regaining his memories from his past life, Donghuang Taiyi had also awakened many Divine Powers that could help him reach beyond the heavens, but to break through the heaven, one would need the cultivation of Manifesting Saint.

At the same time, all the territories under the sky were discussing this matter.

"Such tremendous pressure, who could it be?"

"Could it be that a mighty one is attacking?"

"No, this aura is very distant from us, it’s almost like... the Tianwei during tribulation..."

"After the terrifying roar of the dragon from the Endless Sea, has another earth-shattering powerhouse emerged?"

"It’s the time, it’s the chaos. How shall we survive this Great Tribulation?"

Countless beings were in terror. With the Great Qin court’s battle campaigns, many cities lay in ruins, numerous families were broken, and lives were lost. Now, with the emergence of each peerless powerhouse, the peril to the people of the world only grew greater.

If the top powerhouses were to rage into battle, to claim millions of lives would not be an exaggeration.

With the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny breaking into the holy realm, it would surely boost the morale of the Anti-Qin Alliance. The true battle was just about to start.
