The Eternal God Emperor and the Demon Ancestor

Chapter 35 The Boundless Divine Sea

"I never expected that the Xuandao True Buddha of the Western Paradise would have such combat power. The Buddhist Realm is hiding too much. Fortunately, the Palace Master came with us." Quan Zhongsheng sighed, his tone full of shock. It was good that Ke Luo came with them, otherwise, they would probably not have fared well if they had faced Xuandao.

The clash between beings of the Boundless Realm was beyond the comprehension of the gods below. Only the overwhelming aftershocks of the battle swept in like a cataclysmic tidal wave. The Saha Heavenly Domain was a superior heavenly domain of the Heavenly Court. The divine array inscribed outside its boundary could have withstood a full-force battle against a true god. However, both Koro and the Profound Dao True Buddha were supreme beings of the Boundless Realm. Even though the two fought in the void outside the domain, the aftershocks still caused the light membrane of the divine array to tremble violently, almost shattering it.

The gods looked up and saw the dazzling light of Buddhism and Taoism from beyond the realm collide with the holy power of light, like two universes colliding in the starry sky, the force of which shook the heavens. At first, the holy power of light was unstoppable, almost completely engulfing the entire Buddhist and Taoist world. But in an instant, a transparent divine sword suddenly flew out from the depths of the Buddhist light. The sword had no edge, yet it was infinitely powerful. With a single strike, it tore through the seal of the world of light and pierced straight towards the core of that light.

As the divine sword appeared, the gods watching below felt their minds suddenly seized. Greed, anger, ignorance, and desire surged wildly within them, their souls seemingly drawn to the sword. For a moment, the gods stood frozen in place, or screamed madly, none able to maintain their composure. "How bizarre is this divine power! We are all Great Gods, our minds as firm as rocks, how could we be captivated by a single sword?" The Gengjin War God and Ke Yangshan were the first to break free, their divine senses sweeping across the surrounding gods, awakening them. At the same time, they shouted sternly, preventing anyone from looking directly at the battlefield.

"Oh no! The Divine Wall of Light, formed from the Temple Master's Book of Light, has been broken!" a great god of the Temple of Light exclaimed in alarm.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the transparent divine sword was unstoppable, cleaving through the barrier of light that stretched across the starry sky, and piercing straight into the brow of the angel statue that supported the star field. The statue shattered, the holy power of light dissipated, and all the gods of Heaven showed expressions of disbelief.

Immediately afterwards, the seven-colored divine light swept across, shattering the layers of seals that imprisoned the Saha Heaven Domain. The gods of all the domains of the Heavenly Court sensed the terrifying fluctuations of divine power here, and streaks of divine rainbows pierced the starry sky, rushing towards the Saha Heaven Domain.

The gods of Heaven were alarmed, but they did not lose their composure. Quan Zhongsheng moved to Ke Yangshan's side and whispered, "Young Palace Master, the Palace Master has been fighting for a long time without victory, and there may be unforeseen circumstances. The Saha Heaven is the realm of the Buddhas, and the gods of the Buddhas are already gathering. It would be better to retreat here for the time being."

Ke Yangshan sensed the approaching divine power of the Buddhist realm from all sides. His expression darkened slightly. He glanced at Gengjin War God and the others, then raised his foot and kicked Linghu Divine Lord, who was under his foot, hard towards the edge of the divine array.

"Listen up, all of you! If anyone dares to criticize the Heavenly Realm or slander the Temple of Light again, this will be their fate!" Ke Yangshan's voice was as cold as ice as it swept over the gods present, his imposing aura overwhelming them.

Lord Yu Qian, his eyes blazing with fury, suppressed his rage and roared, "Ke Yangshan, you have dared to defy the great gods of my Yu Realm! My Yu clan will surely report this to the Heavenly Emperor! This Heavenly Realm is not solely ruled by your Temple of Light!"

Ke Yangshan ignored him and turned his gaze to Liu Zihou and the others from the Primordial Realm. His tone was arrogant: "Even with the protection of the Mysterious Dao True Buddha, does the Primordial Realm dare to oppose the Heavenly Realm? I see that you are all exceptionally talented. If you are willing to surrender to the Temple of Light, I will provide you with all the cultivation resources and supreme supernatural powers you desire. Think it over carefully."

After saying this, Ke Yangshan turned and walked towards the outer realm. Quan Zhongsheng, the Nine-Headed Dragon God, and others quickly followed behind, and the group of gods from the Heavenly Realm departed in a grand procession.

"Bah! What are you pretending to be, you big shot! Back then, outside the Jiuli Palace in the Kunlun Realm, the Black Li King, wielding the Demon Moon Blade, severed both of his arms with a single sword strike. I still vividly remember his pathetic display of weeping and wailing!" The Crimson Gold True God of the Longli Clan in the Kunlun Realm spat angrily as he looked at Ke Yangshan's retreating figure.

He was an awakened being sealed away in the Kunlun Realm 50,000 years ago. At that time, he only had the cultivation of a Saint King. However, as a first-class genius of the Kunlun Realm, he had also experienced the most glorious years of the Jiuli Divine Palace.

Fifty thousand years ago in the Kunlun Realm, the Jiuli Divine Palace was at its peak, a sacred place for the demon races of all realms, its prestige no less than that of the Demon God Palace in the Demon God Realm. At that time, Ke Luo wanted to form a marriage alliance with the Jiuli Divine Palace, so he ordered Ke Yangshan to ask for the hand of Bai Li Wang, the daughter of the old palace master. However, Hei Li Wang was also in love with Bai Li Wang, so the two agreed to fight three times. Ke Yangshan was defeated in all three battles, and in the end, Hei Li Wang even had his arms cut off by the Demon Moon Blade, making him a laughing stock.

Back in the day, the Nine Li Divine Palace boasted eight powerful figures, including the Azure Li King Chi Xingtian, whose physical body was unparalleled in the universe, ranking first on both the physical strength and overall power lists of the Great Gods. The Black Li King was a top-tier expert, ranking among the top three on the Great Gods' Sword Dao list. Wielding the Demon Moon Blade, he defeated countless heroes, and even the supreme swordsman of the Western Universe praised his swordsmanship, predicting he would break through to the Boundless Realm through his swordsmanship. Unfortunately, fifty thousand years ago, the Black Li King perished in the Hell Realm, killed by the Azure Deer God King of the Azure Deer Divine Palace of the Rakshasa Clan.

"Red Gold, stop talking! We are now people of the Primordial World, and the past of the Kunlun World must never be revealed to outsiders!" White Star True God of the White Li Clan hurriedly spoke up to stop him, reaching out to cover Red Gold True God's mouth, his expression solemn.

The true gods of Kunlun Realm looked in the direction where Ke Yangshan had left, their eyes flashing with complex emotions, including hatred, resentment, and a hint of unspeakable forbearance.

Meanwhile, in the distant Boundless Divine Sea, the main battlefield between the Hell Realm and the Heavenly Court Realm, a massive divine war had already broken out, with battle cries echoing throughout the starry sky.

"Hahaha! Tens of thousands of years have passed, and you, Duowen, haven't improved much at all!" The Snow Sea Emperor, ruler of the Snow Sea Divine Kingdom, one of the five great divine kingdoms of the Rakshasa Clan, laughed loudly. With a single palm strike, his divine palm blotted out the sky, directly knocking away the Primordial Pearl Umbrella suspended above his head. Space churned, and extreme cold instantly condensed. Centered on the Snow Sea Emperor, goose-feather snowflakes danced in the air, instantly transforming the starry sky within a radius of nearly ten million miles into a frozen snowfield.

"The Boundless Falling Goose Palm!"

The War God of Duowen caught the Chaos Pearl Umbrella in mid-air. Looking at the forcibly rewritten celestial phenomena, he showed resentment and said in a deep voice, "Emperor of the Snow Sea, your Snow Sea Divine Path has actually reached such a level. I was outmaneuvered."

As one of the nine great war gods of the Heavenly Palace, the renowned war god Duowen's fame throughout the universe represents the majesty of the Heavenly Palace in ruling all realms. However, he has now been defeated by the Snow Sea Emperor, which is nothing short of a heavy blow to the Heavenly Court camp.

The Snow Sea Emperor raised his hand, and the power of the snowfield spanning millions of miles condensed, transforming into a colossal god wielding an ice and snow spear, standing behind him with immense divine might. He was the ruler of the five great divine kingdoms of the Rakshasa Clan, and his cultivation was comparable to that of Emperor Luo Yan, the ruler of the Tianluo Divine Kingdom. Although the War God Duowen was a supreme being in the divine realm, he was ultimately a step below in terms of cultivation level, and his defeat was already predetermined.

"Duwen, since you admit defeat, the Yinyi Realm will belong to my Snow Sea Divine Kingdom!" The Snow Sea Emperor's handsome face was full of pride as he laughed loudly.

This Yin Yi Realm has given birth to several great gods. It is rich in resources and located at the border between Heaven and Hell, making it a treasure land that is fiercely contested by military strategists. The two of them just wagered their battle on the Yin Yi Realm.

At this moment, the Boundless Divine Sea was filled with the roar of divine battles. The aftershocks of the clash between millions of true gods stirred up the world in this divine sea that spanned two realms. Stars shattered, and star debris rained down into the divine sea, stirring up towering waves.

"Duowen, in this battle of Taiwei Realm, your Heavenly Court is doomed to lose! Shi Zu and Yan Renhuan have already rushed to Taiwei Starfield, and your defeat is inevitable!" The two great figures of Tiannan Life and Death Ruins looked at the Heavenly Court camp with a mocking expression, as if victory was in their grasp.

"Second Brother Nan, don't be so smug! What you can think of, we are not unprepared for. Shi Zu and Yan Renhuan, don't even think about stepping into the Taiwei Realm Star Domain!" The God of War Zengzhang's voice was calm, his gaze sweeping coldly over the Second Master Tiannan, his words full of certainty.

Before the words were finished, a tremendous surge of divine power suddenly erupted from the edge of the Boundless Divine Sea. Vast sword energy and deathly power intertwined, each covering millions of miles of starry sky. The powerful divine energy caused the surrounding stars to tilt and sway, almost collapsing.

"True Martial!"

A roar, like a thunderclap, resounded across the Milky Way.

The gods looked up and saw that the Stone Ancestor held a black giant axe, manifesting a divine body that spanned tens of millions of miles. The axe light cleaved down, directly splitting the starry sky at the junction of the Boundless Divine Sea and the Western Universe into nothingness. A figure was forcibly forced out of the void.

The figure was imposing, with a face like jade, covered in black armor, wielding the Zhenwu Demon-Slaying Sword, and standing on a tortoise-snake divine beast. He exuded divine might and was none other than the master of the Northern Zhenwu Realm, the "Zhenwu Emperor".

The True Martial Emperor raised his hand and swung his sword. The vast sword energy surged like a boundless ocean, stretching across the starry sky, and directly annihilated the Stone Ancestor's axe, which was powerful enough to split the world.

"Shi Beiya, take this!"

In the distance, the figure of the Primordial God, Lord of the Primordial Realm, suddenly appeared. Behind him, an endless divine world unfolded, and a vast and ancient aura swept over. He raised his hand and unleashed a divine power, "Primordial True Qi!"

The grayish-white primordial energy poured down like a silver river, piercing through millions of miles of void. The energy was indestructible, shattering the space it passed through. Carrying its majestic power, it rushed straight towards the Stone Ancestor.

With a long roar, the power of death, the power of darkness, and the power of space merged on the black giant axe, condensing into an ultimate destructive force. He gripped the axe with both hands, cleaving through the air with a single blow. The first blow annihilated the Primordial True Qi, while the second swept across the star field. The axe wind shattered the surrounding stars, directly forcing the Primordial God Venerable to retreat hundreds of thousands of miles.

Seeing the opportunity, the True Martial Emperor immediately rushed forward, his Demon-Slaying Sword directly blocking the domineering axe of the Stone Ancestor. The Primordial God also steadied himself, and a Primordial Divine Axe appeared in his palm, following closely behind.

The three supreme beings of the Divine Realm instantly clashed, sometimes charging into the void, sometimes crashing into the River of Three Crossings. The intensity of their battle caused billions of miles of starry sky to be continuously annihilated and collapsed, and one deadly place after another quietly formed amidst the flames of war.

A glint of light flashed in the eyes of the two great masters of Tiannan, and they said in a deep voice, "It's actually the True Martial Emperor and the Primordial God Venerable. It seems you really did plan this all along. I imagine there are also powerful figures blocking Yan Renhuan's way. Could it be Ke Luo from the Temple of Light, or the Chongming Ancestor from the Demon God Realm?"

"It doesn't matter who it is, our mission is to keep the Heavenly Court's experts tied up in the Boundless Divine Sea! Only in this way can Qingzu and the others break through the Western Universe's defenses. Once we break through Huaying's great formation, we can advance unimpeded. Why should we wait for the Asura Star Pillar Realm to break through the Heavenly Court's defenses?" The Meteorite Palace Master, one of the twenty-four divine palaces of the Asura Clan, stared intently at the Heavenly Court Realm's tight defenses and said in a deep voice.

"In that case, let us all join forces and test the strength of this Heavenly Court's defenses!" The Azure Deer God King of the Azure Deer Temple stepped forward, his voice booming like a bell, resounding through the starry sky.

As soon as the words fell, all the gods and kings of the Underworld reached a consensus and attacked in unison. Billions of divine powers converged into a world-destroying torrent, crashing into the Heavenly Court's defenses. With a deafening roar, a gaping hole was torn open in the Heavenly Court's divine array defenses. Countless Heavenly Court cultivators, unable to avoid it, were reduced to ashes under the terrifying divine might.

Seeing this, the several war gods of the Heavenly Court knew that it was a fight to the death. They each let out a long roar and went to find their opponents.

The War God of Holding the Nation locked his gaze on the supreme being of the Corpse Clan in the Underworld—the Nine-Eyed Dragon God of Xuan Gu. His figure flashed before him, and he coldly declared, "Xuan Gu, our battle is not yet over. Today, I will sever your head as a sacrifice to my fallen comrades!"

A jade pipa appeared in the palm of the God of War, its four strings reflecting the four elements of earth, fire, water, and wind. He plucked the strings with his fingertips, and endless sound waves, carrying the power of the cosmic realm, transformed into beams of world-destroying divine light, rushing straight towards the Xuan Gu Nine-Eyed Dragon God.

The Xuan Gu Nine-Eyed Dragon God's eyes blazed with ferocity. With all nine divine eyes open, it unleashed nine beams of annihilating divine light. With a single punch, it sent the Heavenly Court's Boundless Realm expert who was blocking its path flying. Its body surged with corpse energy, its divine might overwhelming, as it fearlessly met the War God of Holding the Nation.

As the powerful beings above the Boundless Realm took action, the great gods who were originally fighting on the Boundless Divine Sea began to retreat one after another. This war was no longer something they could participate in. However, due to the haste, a few great gods from the Heavenly Court Realm were left on the battlefield.

Seeing this, the Death Clan's End-of-Day God King, wanting to take advantage of the situation, activated his temple, transforming it into a black beam that rushed towards the rear of several great gods in the Heavenly Court, attempting a sneak attack.

Unexpectedly, their movements had already been detected by the Heavenly Beginning Civilization's Divine King, Yu. Yu transformed into a streak of light and intercepted them, his divine voice resounding through the starry sky: "Yuan Zhongmo! You are the strongest of the Death Clan, a Divine King of your generation, yet you resort to such despicable acts of sneak attacks from behind, and even target juniors! Such shamelessness! It seems all members of the Death Clan are of this character! Back then, Qing Cang used the Kunlun Realm to coerce the Sumeru Saint Monk; his methods were equally despicable, truly contemptible!"

His sneak attack was foiled, and he was publicly rebuked by the God King Yu. The God King of the End of Dharma was instantly enraged. He activated his divine sense, causing the death runes on the temple to surge. The black mist surged and crushed towards the God King Yu with overwhelming ferocity. He shouted, "Those who achieve great things do not concern themselves with trifles. In this world, victory and defeat are always decided by the victor. What is there to talk about shame! Luo Yu, since you insist on showing off, then today I will see what your Heavenly Beginning Civilization's Dao is capable of!"
