473: 482 Chapter Plot Twist 473: 482 Chapter Plot Twist Investiture of the Gods!

In the Sealing God Tribulation, fatal Immortal Demons are enlisted in the Investiture of the Gods as gods of various regions.

Of course, saying it’s an enlistment is just a euphemism—it’s essentially a form of unusual confinement.

Without a physical body, the sealed gods’ Cultivation can be said to be forever stalled, and whoever controls the Investiture of the Gods also controls these gods’ lives.

For instance, figures like Zhao Gongming from the Jie Sect are gods on the Investiture of the Gods and are governed by the Jade Emperor.

However, due to the doctrinal conflict between the two sects, the Jade Emperor has never used the Investiture of the Gods to coerce Zhao Gongming and others.

It’s not that the Jade Emperor doesn’t want to, but since Zhao Gongming and others are disciples of the Jie Sect, enslaving them would certainly offend the Heavenly Sect Master.

This is also why the Jade Emperor seldom employs the Investiture of the Gods.

Moreover, the most terrifying aspect of the Investiture of the Gods is not confining these gods but being a Supreme Spiritual Treasure specifically designed to suppress Immortal Demons.

Among Heaven, Earth, and the Three Realms, aside from the Witch Clan who have no Primordial Spirit and thus do not fear the Investiture of the Gods, all living creatures faced with such a Supreme Spiritual Treasure are threatened with their souls scattering.

Indeed, the Investiture of the Gods targets the Immortal Primordial Spirit.

Under the casting of Investiture Golden Light, even if you are a Daluo Golden Immortal, you face the risk of perishing along with your Dao.

This is also the horror of the Investiture of the Gods.

Above the heavenly vault, in the void.

A scroll of the Investiture of the Gods emanated an unpredictable aura.

The Jade Emperor even severed his foundational Dao roots, forcibly elevating himself into the Daluo Seventh Layer Heaven; at that moment, he became the most terrifying entity.

In the center of Turquoise Pool, where all laws turn to ash, Ye Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, black hair cascading behind his head, his eyes sweeping over the Jade Emperor with a hint of mockery.

“Investiture of the Gods, Daluo Seventh Layer Heaven?”

Ye Xuan spoke softly, his heart undisturbed.

Regarding the terrifying foundation the Jade Emperor displayed at the moment, it was as if he didn’t even see it.

“Interesting, truly extremely interesting.”

Boom, boom, boom!

The earth shook and he trod on the sky.

Under the astonished gazes of various Daluo, Ye Xuan stepped toward the Jade Emperor, completely disregarding the terrifying might the Jade Emperor emitted.

“Younger brother, retreat quickly.”

Suddenly, before Ye Xuan could continue forward, Emperor Ziwei, pale-faced, directly blocked Ye Xuan’s path.

“Brother, no need to worry.”

Ye Xuan smiled slightly and patted Emperor Ziwei’s shoulder, slipping past him.

When Ye Xuan reappeared, he was eerily standing in the heavenly vault confronting the Jade Emperor.

Such a scene left Emperor Ziwei in a daze for a moment.

He had not expected Ye Xuan to be so bold.

Did he not know that the Jade Emperor was now in the Daluo Seventh Layer Heaven?

The Daluo Seventh Layer Heaven, a terrifying figure from the third division of Daluo.

These are beings hailed and revered as ancestors in Heaven and Earth, and especially since the Jade Emperor also possessed the Investiture of the Gods, how could Ye Xuan be a match for him?

It wasn’t just Emperor Ziwei who thought this way; various Daluo Golden Immortals shared this thought.

Everyone had to admit that Ye Xuan was indeed strong, strong enough to instill fear in them.

Even among the second division of Daluo, he was nearly indecipherable.

But it’s known that with each division in the Daluo Nine Layer Heavens, there’s a vast difference.

Ye Xuan had only just stepped into the Daluo Golden Immortal realm; how could he possibly be a match for the Jade Emperor?

Looking at each other in shock, dead silence reigned.

No one knew what Ye Xuan was thinking.

If it were any of them, they would have fled the Heavenly Court long ago, surely not recklessly deciding to fight the Jade Emperor to the death.

“Brother Dao, can this child really lead our Jie Sect to prosperity?”

From afar, amid Heaven and Earth, the Golden Spirit Saint Mother looked doubtful as she gazed into the void at Ye Xuan’s retreating figure.

Zhao Gongming and other Jie Sect Immortals stood beside her, all watching tensely the imminent, earth-shattering battle.

“Saint Mother, there is no need for doubt.

Emperor Dongji is certainly the one who will lead our Jie Sect to great prosperity.” Zhao Gongming spoke with conviction, though his eyes betrayed a hint of urgency.

In fact, there were things Zhao Gongming did not say aloud.

It was only through his earnest requests that the Golden Spirit Saint Mother had come to the Heavenly Court.

As for the other Daluo Golden Immortals of the Jie Sect, they had long since become disillusioned and had refused his invitations.

No one believed that this so-called Emperor Dongji could rejuvenate the Jie Sect.

Only Shen Gongbao had messaged him once, insisting that he must bring the Jie Sect Immortals, though Zhao Gongming did not know the reason.

Yet he knew Shen Gongbao was cunning and would never act without purpose.

Above the azure heavens, the void exploded.

The Jade Emperor’s features twisted ferociously as the Daluo Immortal Light shattered the heavenly vault.

The sprawling Investiture of the Gods bathed in golden light, emanating a terrifying force capable of slaughtering Immortals and exterminating Gods.

“Ye Xuan, today I want you dead.”

The Heavenly Dragon Fist destroyed heaven and earth; the Jade Emperor launched his attack.

The realm around them collapsed, and time itself twisted.

The destructive aura of shattered all swept towards Ye Xuan.

“Let’s see how strong you are.”

Ye Xuan gave a chilling smile and threw a punch.

In that moment, his Daluo Immortal Body and the Undying Primordial Spirit fused, causing time and space to collapse under the sheer tremendous force of his blow.

Boom!

The Daluo Immortal Light burst in every direction; the boundless void collapsed.

Ye Xuan’s face changed, and blood spurted from his mouth.

His body, like a kite with a broken string, was blown back, even his Daluo Immortal Body showing signs of cracking.

“Ye Xuan, go to hell.”

With a heart full of rage and a mind bent on murder, the Jade Emperor seemed almost demonic.

With his might at the level of the Daluo Seventh Layer Heaven, he was terrifying to the extreme.

Daluo Immortal Techniques and Heaven and Earth Laws unfurled; various Slaughter Techniques permeated the air.

The Jade Emperor, channeling the Power of Heaven and Earth to enhance himself, made his Heavenly Dao Dragon Body radiate tens of thousands of golden rays.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The clouds exploded and the heavens trembled.

The Jade Emperor launched the Heavenly Dragon Fist, each strike a Great Technique that shattered all.

The horrifying Immortal Light burst forth, continuously thrusting Ye Xuan backward, his unbeatable strength leaving Ye Xuan unable to defend.

The Daluo Seventh Layer Heaven was too terrifying.

Even though Ye Xuan had swept through the Daluo ranks at the second major watershed, facing the Jade Emperor, a being of the Daluo Seventh Layer Heaven, he had no strength to fight back and could only suffer the horrific onslaught.

Boom!

A punch was thrown, heaven and earth shattered, and the dazzling Heavenly Dragon Fist blew a terrifying bloody hole right through Ye Xuan’s chest, sending him plummeting to the ground covered in blood.

Rumble!

The ground collapsed, and ravines spread everywhere.

A human-shaped crater emerged as Ye Xuan was blasted deep into the earth; the blood that sprayed out was both stark and terrifying.

The turn of events silenced the Group of Immortals.

Earlier, Ye Xuan had brutally massacred the Jade Emperor, but now the tables had completely turned.

With the Jade Emperor stepping into the Seventh Layer of Daluo, Ye Xuan was no match for him at all.

“You miserable creature, you deserve to die a thousand deaths.”
