265: Chapter 265 Little Black Becomes Emperor

Inside the Small World, Chaos surged and the Great Dao roared.

Xiao Hei hovered in the Void Realm, sensing the complete and clearly perceptible Dao Laws within this world. The invisible shackles that had suppressed him like an impenetrable wall in the outside world were utterly nonexistent here!

His cultivation, which had already been honed to the Peak of Quasi-Emperor, surged like a breached dam. No longer needing to be suppressed, it began to frantically rush and ascend!

“Caw—!!!”

A piercing, earth-shattering cry, filled with endless excitement and release, erupted from Xiao Hei’s mouth. The sound waves rolled, making the surrounding Chaos Qi boil!

His already magnificent body now emanated dazzling dark-gold divine light from every feather, as if forged from immortal divine metal.

His wings spread, covering the sky and sun. Every pattern on them seemed to transform into Dao runes, resonating with the surrounding Laws of Heaven and Earth.

A terrifying pressure, transcending all living beings and seeking to control the firmament, descended with a roar, like an awakened Primordial God King!

The Emperor Realm Heavenly Tribulation belonging to the Golden-Winged Roc was completely triggered in this complete world!

“Rumble—!”

Above the Small World, the originally calm Chaos Void Realm suddenly changed color!

Endless tribulation clouds gathered from all directions. These were not ordinary dark clouds, but Chaos tribulation clouds woven from destructive lightning, annihilating gale, heaven-burning divine fire, Soul-corroding weak water, and various other destructive energies!

Within the tribulation clouds, lightning serpents danced wildly, winds roared like Dragons, a sea of fire surged, and water light soared to the heavens!

Even more, ancient fierce birds and phantoms of gods and devils, condensed from pure tribulation power, floated and roared within them, exuding a murderous aura that made one's Soul tremble!

The might of this Emperor Realm Heavenly Tribulation was far more terrifying and violent than the tribulation Xiao Bai had faced!

Gu Changge stood still in the distance, hands behind his back, his robes unmoving in the violent tribulation force storm.

He calmly watched the proud figure standing at the center of the tribulation clouds, a faint hint of anticipation in his eyes.

“His Foundation is solid, his Bloodline pure, and his will firm. This tribulation, he shall overcome.”

He did not intervene. This was a test Xiao Hei had to face alone, an essential path to shedding the mortal coil and becoming an Emperor. Only by overcoming this tribulation with his own strength could he truly solidify his Emperor Realm Foundation and achieve the supreme Emperor Realm position.

“Come on!”

Xiao Hei’s sharp pupils burned with fierce Battle Intent. Far from showing any fear, he was filled with excitement and longing! He had waited for this day for far too long!

“Screech—!”

The first bolt of tribulation lightning, transforming into a purple lightning Dragon that tore through the firmament, struck down with an aura of destroying all things!

Xiao Hei let out a long cry, not dodging or evading. His wings, like heavenly blades, suddenly flapped, erupting in dark-gold divine light, and he actively met the lightning Dragon!

“Bang!”

The lightning Dragon and the divine wings collided, erupting in a blinding flash of light. The lightning Dragon wailed and shattered, while Xiao Hei’s body merely swayed slightly. Electrical currents flowed over his feathers, absorbing and refining the destructive lightning power within, tempering his own body!

“Not enough! Again!”

He actively charged into the tribulation clouds, tearing with his claws and pecking with his sharp beak, forcefully shattering and devouring streaks of gale, clusters of divine fire, and patches of weak water!

His fighting style was wild and direct, showcasing the domineering and fierce nature of the Golden-Winged Roc lineage to its fullest!

The tribulation clouds seemed to be enraged, and the destructive offensive became even more dense and violent! The fierce birds and divine demon phantoms condensed from tribulation power also rushed forward in unison!

Xiao Hei fought a bloody battle, feathers flying. Deep, bone-visible wounds constantly appeared on his body, and dark-gold Emperor Realm Blood spilled into the Void Realm, each drop containing immense energy.

But the Battle Intent in his eyes grew even fiercer, and his aura, far from diminishing in the struggle, became more condensed, purer, and closer to that supreme Realm!

His Bloodline, stimulated by the extreme pressure, further boiled and sublimated! The dark-gold radiance grew increasingly intense, as if it would transform into a dark sun in the Chaos!

After an unknown amount of time, when the last gray tribulation lightning, containing the Dao of annihilation, was forcefully torn apart and devoured by Xiao Hei with his heavily injured body, the sky-filling tribulation clouds finally began to slowly dissipate.

Xiao Hei’s figure reappeared. He hovered in the air, his body covered in wounds, many places even revealing glistening bone stumps, and his aura was extremely weak.

But his body stood ramrod straight, and the light in his pupils was both extremely sharp and extremely calm.

A new, complete, and supreme aura, transcending all Dao, was irresistibly emanating from the deepest parts of his heavily wounded body!

He succeeded!

With unparalleled willpower and Foundation, he had forcefully endured this terrifying and peerless Chaos Emperor Realm Heavenly Tribulation!

“Om—!”

The Great Dao of the Small World harmonized, bestowing endless auspicious light and colorful glows. Golden springs gushed from the earth, and sweet dew fell from the heavens, nourishing his heavily injured Emperor Realm body.

Those terrifying wounds healed at a visible speed, and the newly grown feathers were even more brilliant, imbued with an immortal Dao Rhyme.

His physique seemed even more perfectly proportioned, every inch of his body flowing with dark-gold Emperor Realm Dao Laws. A slight flutter of his wings could stir the Chaos, and the opening and closing of his eyes seemed to pierce through eons!

An Emperor Realm might, far deeper and more terrifying than when Xiao Bai first became an Emperor, slowly enveloped the surroundings!

This Emperor Realm might was distinctly different from Xiao Bai’s deep and vast Dragon Might!

It was sharper, more violent, carrying an ultimate sharpness and sense of speed derived from the Origin of his Bloodline, looking down upon all birds in the world!

It was as if, with a single thought, he could soar ninety thousand miles, his wings covering the sky, his sharp claws shattering stars!

The Golden-Winged Roc, today, officially ascended to the Emperor Realm!

From now on, he would be—Peng Emperor!

At this moment, Xiao Bai, who was coiled around Gu Changge’s wrist, suddenly trembled!

As an Emperor Realm being, he was most sensitive and direct to this sudden, equally powerful, and domineering pressure!

“This aura, it’s actually so powerful…”

Xiao Bai’s heart instantly churned with monstrous waves!

He clearly perceived that the Emperor Realm might Xiao Hei was currently exuding, though also within the Realm of an early-stage Great Emperor, its condensedness, its domineering essence, and especially that extreme speed and sharpness that seemed capable of tearing through eons, actually subtly surpassed his own!

“We’re both in the Emperor Realm, yet he’s actually stronger than me?!”

This realization, like a cold steel needle, sharply pricked the trace of pride and superiority that had just arisen in Xiao Bai’s heart after achieving the Emperor Realm position!

He had originally thought that by becoming an Emperor first, his position under his master was already secure. He had even secretly gloated, feeling he had seized the “first opportunity.”

But now, not only did Xiao Hei follow closely behind in achieving the Emperor Realm position, the strength and Foundation he displayed seemed to be even superior!

Especially considering the Golden-Winged Roc Bloodline, which in ancient times was a top-tier existence capable of contending with true Dragons, and even had advantages in certain aspects, Xiao Bai’s heart immediately sank.

A strong sense of crisis and unwillingness instantly replaced his previous lightheartedness.

“Hmph, how could my Black Dragon Bloodline be weaker than his? Once I stabilize my Realm and comprehend more Great Emperor Divine Abilities, I might not be unable to surpass him later!”
