73: Sixth Emperor

Whoosh!

Ji Ru Qianlong's beautiful face was as cold as jade. She didn't speak, but responded directly with action.

She lightly stepped on the azure sea, with the bright moon behind her, her hazy figure glowing, like the Moon Goddess descending upon the world, sacred and elegant.

At the same time, a giant, beautiful light figure slowly materialized behind Ji Ru Qianlong.

With the appearance of the giant light figure, an indescribable sense of oppression slowly enveloped the entire world.

The giant light figure that appeared behind Ji Ru Qianlong was beautiful and elegant, with a face almost identical to Ji Ru Qianlong's, but possessing a supreme divine aura.

This made Ji Ru Qianlong look as pure and noble as a female immortal from the Guanghan Palace's Celestial Realm, making people not dare to harbor the slightest thought of blasphemy.

That light figure possessed a beauty difficult to describe in words. It was an ineffable transcendent aura, as if it was born from all the Spiritual Qi in the world, flawlessly beautiful.

And when that light figure appeared, the entire world seemed to fall silent.

Countless gazes of awe and intoxication involuntarily projected towards that flawless light figure.

Even the majestic Emperor's face in the sky showed a momentary lapse of concentration.

"That is... Lady Qianlong's Holy Body Divine Power, Roshan Dharma Body!"

Someone exclaimed.

The Holy Body has three treasures: Body Protecting Saint Light, Saint Body Phenomenon, and Holy Body Divine Power!

Generally speaking, when Holy Body Divine Power appears, it means that person's Holy Body has truly reached Major Achievement!

At the same time, as the symbol of the Holy Body's Major Achievement and the last of the three Holy Body treasures, its power is naturally the strongest.

The reason why a Great Completion Holy Body can contend with an Emperor is primarily due to the Holy Body Divine Power it has evolved!

And Ji Ru Qianlong's Holy Body Divine Power is an extremely powerful combat Dharma Body!

Among the countless combat Dharma Bodies throughout history, the Roshan Dharma Body ranks eleventh!

Relying on this Dharma Body, even among the Great Completion Holy Bodys of all generations, Ji Ru Qianlong is a top-ranked existence.

With such strength, she naturally wouldn't give this arrogant Emperor from the Upper Realm a good look.

However, she still underestimated the strength of this Upper Realm Emperor.

Emperor Anlan looked at Ji Ru Qianlong, who had summoned the Roshan Dharma Body, his eyes still calm and unruffled, not showing any superfluous emotion.

"Hmph! Naive woman! No matter how strong a Great Completion Holy Body is, she can only contend with a First Life Emperor. But my ancestor Anlan is a Six-Life Emperor who has lived for six lives!"

Seeing Ji Ru Qianlong looking ready for a big battle, Ji Bai couldn't help but shake his head, revealing a hint of mockery.

Indeed, the Holy Body has many legends from ancient times to the present.

But in the legends, the Holy Body only ever had the qualification to fight with an Emperor, and rarely achieved victory.

The reason for this is that there are also different levels among Emperors.

Emperors are divided into nine lives, with each life lasting ten thousand years.

A normal Emperor, after dominating one life, will pass away.

Some fortunate Emperors can live a second life by seeking undying medicine, thereby regaining ten thousand years of Lifespan.

And when an Emperor lives a second life and becomes a Second Life Emperor, their strength undergoes a significant transformation.

At this point, the Emperor is no longer an existence that an ordinary Great Completion Holy Body can easily provoke.

And those Emperors who were used as stepping stones by Great Completion Holy Bodys in ancient texts were almost without exception First Life Emperors, with few living a second life.

And when the Lifespan of a Second Life Emperor comes to an end, they can choose to try to break through to the third life again.

However, due to the restriction that undying medicine can only be used once, it is rare for Emperors to live for three lives or more throughout history; most end their lives in the first or second life.

This also indirectly created the legend that a Great Completion Holy Body can rival an Emperor.

If all Emperors could live for more than three lives, then even the most Heaven-Defying Great Completion Holy Body would be incomparable to them.

And Ji Bai's ancestor, Emperor Anlan, happened to be an astonishing and brilliant existence even among Emperors, a peerless being who lived for six lives!

"A Six-Life Emperor!?"

Ji Ru Qianlong was slightly startled by the words, and then her heart sank.

Her strength could at most rival a Second Life Emperor.

If a Six-Life Emperor were to personally descend, she would never be his opponent today, no matter what.

But Lin Yang was the key to the future and absolutely could not be lost.

Therefore, even if she had to risk her life today, she could not let this Upper Realm Emperor take Lin Yang away, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

"What of a Six-Life Emperor?"

"The passage between the Upper Realm and Lower Realm has long been severed. Your current manifestation of will has already affected the normal operation of the two realms' order. Once too much power is transmitted, the World Will will definitely begin to attack you."

Ji Ru Qianlong stood atop the Roshan Dharma Body, her beautiful eyes narrowed as she stared at the giant face in the sky, using the World Law to contend.

Although she was not an opponent for a Six-Life Emperor, it was impossible for Emperor Anlan, as an Emperor of the Upper Realm, to descend in his true body to the Lower Realm.

"So what?"

Emperor Anlan's face was indifferent, not caring in the slightest.

"That means, if you dare to cross realms and act in your true body, I will have a chance to unite with the World Will to erase you!"

Ji Ru Qianlong's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her voice chilling as she spoke.

"Heh heh... erase me?"

Emperor Anlan sneered.

"You can try, even if it means reversing the order of the two realms and fighting against the World Law, I, Emperor Anlan, am still invincible in the world!"

As his voice fell, a dazzling light suddenly erupted above the sky, and Chaos Qi surged.

Boom!

In an instant, as if the sun had exploded, the entire world was illuminated.

Everyone below was blinded by the intense light.

It was too brilliant there. Vaguely, it seemed as if a humanoid being was stepping through the Void Realm, extending a hand from the endless light, reaching across the two realms.

Emperor Anlan's true body had made a move!

Rumble!

As soon as Emperor Anlan made his move, the heavens and earth rumbled, the endless Void Realm collapsed, and countless crimson lightning bolts surged out from the depths of the Void Realm.

All of them were terrifying Order Tribulations, overwhelming the figure stepping through the light.

However, the glowing figure was fearless. He raised his other hand, supporting a field of Emperor Light, to contend with the Order Tribulations surging from all directions, while the hand he had extended earlier went straight for Lin Yang.

"Ancestor, why must you capture this person?"

Ji Bai was somewhat puzzled by this.

Even if the Twin Saint Body Phenomenon was extraordinary, if he didn't become an Emperor, he was ultimately just an ant. There was no need for the ancestor to pick on a junior, right?

But Ji Bai didn't know that Emperor Anlan, as a Six-Life Emperor, had long ago found everything in the world to be unremarkable in his eyes.

However, not long ago, when he first saw Lin Yang, a strange tremor inexplicably arose in his heart.

The Emperor's spiritual sense told him that this young man posed a threat to him!

And it was a fatal threat!

Although he didn't know where this threat came from, the spiritual sense of a Six-Life Emperor had already touched upon Karma.

Once it appeared, there would be no mistakes!

Since that was the case, he couldn't let this young man go.

However, Emperor Anlan didn't intend to kill Lin Yang directly, but rather planned to capture him first, and then decide what to do after figuring out the source of the threat on this young man.

"Lin Yang, quick, dodge!"

Seeing that Emperor Anlan, disregarding his status, was willing to endure the bombardment of the World Law to forcefully attack Lin Yang, Ji Ru Qianlong immediately became anxious and angry.

Lin Yang stood in place, smiling bitterly. He wanted to leave too.

But the Emperor's pressure enveloped him at all times, making it difficult for him to even move a finger. He couldn't escape even if he wanted to.

Seeing this situation, Ji Ru Qianlong, who couldn't afford to think too much, immediately merged with the Roshan Dharma Body and then charged straight up, blocking Lin Yang's path!

"Heh heh, there's nothing I, this Emperor, want to do that I can't achieve."

Seeing that a Grand Completion female Holy Body was so desperate to protect Lin Yang, Emperor Anlan became even more curious about the secrets hidden within Lin Yang.

"Roshan Guardian!"

Ji Ru Qianlong was furious. Immediately, she formed a hand seal, pushing her Holy Body power to the extreme.

In an instant, azure waves surged, and the bright moon on the sea intertwined with the Roshan Dharma Body, forming a giant moonlight disc that protected Lin Yang within it.

She didn't know if this would be enough to block a full strike from a Six-Life Emperor's true body.

But she had no choice. If she had to choose between herself and Lin Yang to die, she would rather choose herself.

"Saintess, you..."

At this moment, let alone others, even Lin Yang couldn't understand what Ji Ru Qianlong was doing.

No matter how handsome he was, it shouldn't be enough to make a Grand Completion female Holy Body lose her mind and protect him with her life, right?

Crack!

Under the true body's palm strike of the Six-Life Emperor, Ji Ru Qianlong's Great Completion Holy Body power was still too inferior.

The moonlight disc, which could even solidify space, was as fragile as thin paper under the Six-Life Emperor's power.

The moment they touched, the moonlight disc instantly shattered into pieces.

"Puff~"

With the Roshan Dharma Body broken, Ji Ru Qianlong herself suffered a huge backlash. Reverse blood surged from her red lips, and the Holy Light on her body began to dissipate inch by inch.

The Six-Life Emperor was terrifying indeed!

"Does this mean the future cannot be changed...?"

With her Dharma Body dissipated, Ji Ru Qianlong fell from the sky like a blood-stained jasmine.

As she fell, a look of trance flashed in her eyes. She remembered that the ancient texts recorded that Yang Heavenly Emperor, when he was young, had not encountered a situation like this.

This made her wonder if her arrival had already influenced the Karma in the unseen, thereby changing Yang Heavenly Emperor's normal growth trajectory and leading to the appearance of some previously unencountered dangers.

If that were the case, did it mean that her Transmigration had no meaning? No matter how hard she tried, Yang Heavenly Emperor would still not appear in her future timeline to save them.

Just as Ji Ru Qianlong, filled with despair, slowly closed her eyes to embrace death, a young figure suddenly appeared beneath her. He extended his arms and gently embraced her falling delicate body.

Feeling the warmth from his arms, Ji Ru Qianlong slowly opened her eyes.

What greeted her was a young and handsome face.

It was Lin Yang!

"I'm sorry, I couldn't protect you."

Ji Ru Qianlong said remorsefully, her expression in a daze.

"You've done very well. Leave the rest to me."

Lin Yang spoke, his voice carrying an invincible confidence, as if a Heavenly Emperor had walked from ancient times, and after awakening, unexpectedly saw a later devout seeker of the Dao, and couldn't help but show a hint of concern.

This caused Ji Ru Qianlong's beautiful eyes to sparkle. Lin Yang's state was too strange at this moment, and his voice was also off.

He didn't sound like a young man, but rather like an invincible expert who had been in seclusion for many years, having long seen through the Mortal World and its fleeting years!

Ji Ru Qianlong suddenly perked up, her beautiful eyes intently staring at Lin Yang, who was holding her, trying to look closely again and again.

Finally, she discovered a clue within Lin Yang's body.

It was... a drop of blood!
