Chapter 477 - 477 486 Blood Stains South Heavenly Gate

477: Chapter 486 Blood Stains South Heavenly Gate 477: Chapter 486 Blood Stains South Heavenly Gate Alas, Ye Xuan had chosen the path of “Proving Dao with Power” for his sanctification.

His Primordial Spirit was impervious to All Method, not to mention a mere Investiture of the Gods.

Even if a Quasi-Saint sought to destroy his Primordial Spirit, it would require full forty-nine days of erasure to thoroughly extinguish Ye Xuan.

“No…

Impossible…

Why…

Why is this happening?” The Jade Emperor screamed in shock, hardly able to believe the sight before his eyes.

The Investiture of the Gods was his last resort and also the only Spiritual Treasure with which he could eliminate Ye Xuan.

But the scene unfolding before him informed the Jade Emperor that his so-called foundation could not inflict the slightest harm on Ye Xuan.

“Esteemed brother.”

“Emperor!”

Seeing Ye Xuan unharmed, Emperor Ziwei and Zhao Gongming burst into loud laughter.

The group of Jie Sect immortals danced and cavorted.

Where was even a trace of the usual dignity of an immortal?

No wonder they acted in such a manner.

Since the Sealing God Tribulation, the Jie Sect had become weak and pathetic.

After an endless passage of time, being trampled by the Chan Sect, now with Ye Xuan defying the heavens and rising up, even the Jade Emperor was about to submit at his feet.

Provided that Ye Xuan could kill the Jade Emperor, it would prove that the Jie Sect was about to secure its stance in the Heavenly Court.

Above the Heavenly Vault.

Ye Xuan strolled forward, his previously ferocious and malevolent demeanor had vanished.

Now, Ye Xuan was exceedingly calm, as if not even the collapse of Heaven and Earth could perturb him.

“Oceans into mulberry fields, time flies like an arrow.

The grudges between us, after six thousand years, shall finally come to an end today.”

Ye Xuan looked indifferently at the Jade Emperor as he slowly raised the Heavenly Punishment Halberd.

A swath of endlessly dark light blossomed at its tip, the aura that annihilates all things locking onto the Jade Emperor.

“No…

No…

I don’t want to die.”

The Jade Emperor bellowed in terror, and the Daluo Immortal Light erupted violently.

He transformed into a force that tore through this space, fleeing towards the Thirty-Three Heavens.

“Under the Heavenly Punishment Halberd, no living being survives.

Who through the ages will know?”

Ye Xuan’s voice was hoarse with age and suffused with a drunken smile at the corners of his mouth, echoing throughout the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven.

Without any visible action, when he swung the most fearsome weapon of antiquity, an extremely terrifying scene unfolded.

Clang!

Infinite darkness, a glint of cold light—as if a single ray within Chaos, tearing through ages and shattering Chaos itself, all living beings threatened to perish within this glint of cold light.

There was no earth-shattering boom, no shattering in all directions, nor any display of terrifying power.

Merely, the Heavenly Punishment Halberd disappeared from Ye Xuan’s hand.

That streak of cold light, overcoming the barrier of time and space, abruptly transfixed the Jade Emperor’s body.

Within that boundless darkness, the Jade Emperor was nailed alive by the unimaginable force of the Heavenly Punishment Halberd onto the plaque above the South Heavenly Gate.

Blood, bright blood, and golden blood.

The Jade Emperor’s eyes were vacant as his Nine Dragon Emperor Robe was soaked with blood.

His mouth, unable to stop the spurting blood, also showed colors of despair and unwillingness.

Drip-drop—drip-drop—drip-drop!

Strands of golden Immortal Blood flowed from the chest of the Jade Emperor, staining the plaque of the South Heavenly Gate with a blood-red and magnificent hue.

However, when this terrifying scene presented itself before the Group of Immortals, the whole world became dead silent.

Thud—thud—thud.

As if the Killing Battle Drum was being beaten, resembling the Nine Heavens River rolling backward, Ye Xuan walked leisurely along the Heavenly Vault, approaching the South Heavenly Gate and looked calmly at the Jade Emperor nailed on the plaque.

“Dust to dust, earth to earth, today the six-thousand-year-old grudges are settled.

You can rest in peace.”

Ye Xuan spoke calmly.

As his hand reached out, the Heavenly Punishment Halberd slowly withdrew from the chest of the Jade Emperor, a smear of fresh blood spraying onto Ye Xuan’s visage, making him take a deep breath as he seemed to become completely intoxicated with this exhilarating feeling.

Bang!

The corpse of the Jade Emperor fell to the ground, and that dull thud shocked the Group of Immortals back to their senses.

“The…

the Jade Emperor is dead, he’s actually dead?”

“Did…

did Emperor Dongji kill the Jade Emperor?”

“No…

no…

was it Heavenly Emperor Ye who killed the Jade Emperor?”

The trembling murmurs of the Group of Immortals resounded as they shuddered to speak, truly unable to believe, nor daring to conceive, that the sovereign ruler of the Three Realms, the Jade Emperor, had truly perished by the hands of Ye Xuan.

The heavens were changing!

The heavens of the Three Realms were about to change!

As this thought rose in the hearts of the Group of Immortals, bitterness appeared in everyone’s eyes, knowing that with the Jade Emperor’s death and the extinguishing of his Dao, Ye Xuan would become the new Heavenly Emperor.

Ye Xuan was no Jade Emperor, if he were to become the new Three Realms Supreme, he would certainly not be as forbearing and cowardly as the Jade Emperor.

Whoever would not accept his rule as the new Heavenly Emperor, Ye Xuan would surely take brutal action to suppress them.

Everyone understood, great chaos was impending in the Three Realms because Ye Xuan was not the Jade Emperor.

The various Daoist could not automatically submit to him, and Ye Xuan would certainly not be as forbearing as the Jade Emperor; an unimaginable turmoil was about to occur.

“Brother, quickly annihilate the Jade Emperor’s Primordial Spirit, otherwise, if it escapes, there will surely be endless troubles,” Emperor Ziwei suddenly called out, a reminder that shocked the Group of Immortals back to their senses.

They then realized that indeed the Jade Emperor had died, but where was his Primordial Spirit?

Whir!

A point of Primordial Spirit Golden Light suddenly broke through the constraints of time and space, disappearing in an instant.

Clearly, this was the Jade Emperor’s Primordial Spirit, which caused Emperor Ziwei’s complexion to turn extremely anxious, as he attempted to intercept.

However, the Jade Emperor after all had once been a Daoist Child alongside Hong Jun the Great Daoist Ancestor.

Even though he had fallen today, his Primordial Spirit techniques were far stronger than other Immortals’, which prevented Emperor Ziwei from stopping him.

“What are you still looking at?

Are you waiting for this emperor to take action?”

Suddenly, Ye Xuan spoke with composure directly at Gold Star Taibai, prompting the latter to give a bitter smile.

Under the shock and horror of the Group of Immortals’ gaze, Gold Star Taibai’s hand surprisingly revealed a Heavenly Book, from which a streak of golden light roared out, catching and bringing back the Jade Emperor’s Primordial Spirit.

“Gold Star Taibai, you dare to steal the Heavenly Book?”

The Jade Emperor’s Primordial Spirit cried out in anguished fury; he never anticipated, despite all his calculations and placing his final vestige of Primordial Spirit within the Heavenly Book to guard against the day Ye Xuan might storm the Heavenly Court, that if he were truly killed by Ye Xuan, as long as a part of his Primordial Spirit within the book remained undestroyed, he could be reborn.

Unfortunately, despite all the Jade Emperor’s calculations, he never imagined that Gold Star Taibai, whom he most trusted, would betray him at this critical moment.

Not only did Gold Star Taibai steal the Heavenly Book, but he also captured his fractured Primordial Spirit.

This indeed spelt a fate worse than death.

“Gold Star Taibai, extinguish his Primordial Spirit for this emperor!”

Suddenly, Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze turning somewhat sinister as he looked at Gold Star Taibai.

This caused Gold Star Taibai’s body to tremble, clearly betraying the great hesitation in his heart.

But Gold Star Taibai was also acutely aware that Ye Xuan asking him to personally annihilate the Jade Emperor’s Primordial Spirit was to cut off all his paths of retreat, earning him the infamy throughout the Three Realms, for he had betrayed his master.

From this point forward, he could only loyally follow Ye Xuan, or else he would be spat upon by all, like a rat crossing the street that everyone wants to hit.
