235: The blue planet

Boom, boom, boom, boom...

The iron rod and the ancient bell continued to collide, sparks flying everywhere as Divine Power surged, engulfing the immortal palace.

The erupting Divine Power was incredibly brilliant, the tolling of the bell piercing through the star sea, vast and boundless, as if capable of suppressing all enemies.

However, today it met with resistance; the golden figure held the iron rod, slamming it against the ancient bell with the force of a thousand jun, causing it to roar violently and tremble.

Boom! The ancient bell vibrated, and the Dao Rhyme exploded, resembling a shower of meteoric light, extremely resplendent.

That being, who resembled a Heavenly Emperor, coughed up large mouthfuls of blood; his arm was already twisted, his palm reduced to a bloody pulp.

The vibrational force of the iron rod was too terrifying. Although the ancient bell in the Heavenly Emperor's hand was clearly a supreme treasure, he could not comprehend its true meaning, and could only use it like a mountain to strike and smash.

How could such behavior possibly defeat that golden figure?

Boom!!! With another massive roar, the Heavenly Emperor retreated continuously; one of his arms had completely turned into pulp, and he spat out mouthfuls of blood.

"amitabha..."

The Buddha pressed his palms together and silently chanted the Buddha's name: "The causes of yesterday become the fruits of today. All myriad changes return to dust. A false Emperor is, in the end, nothing but an illusion."

"Hehe..."

The old man riding a green ox smiled slightly: "He thinks he has transcended and escaped the Dao, not knowing that all of this is within the Dao. A stolen Emperor's position is still impossible to grasp."

The God of War holding a three-pointed, double-edged spear spoke with a hint of regret: "He beat me to it. Otherwise, I would have liked to try and see what kind of great power the stolen name of Heavenly Emperor truly possesses!"

The peerlessly elegant Yuee moved forward with light, lotus-like steps.

Even though that golden figure was about to kill the Heavenly Emperor, her beautiful eyes held a trace of faint worry that made one's heart ache.

"He is just a minor character. I fear that relying on us alone will not be enough to guard that world..."

"Fairy Yuee is overthinking it."

The old man riding the green ox had a calm and gentle expression, showing no signs of anxiety, and his tone made people feel inexplicably at ease.

"Even if we cannot guard it, what does it matter? We only need to conceal that world. Sooner or later, a new variable will emerge. When that time comes, it will be the moment these people pay the price. Of course... we probably won't be around then."

"If we are no longer around, what is there to worry about?"

"Senior is right."

Yuee bowed slightly and saluted the old man.

Now everyone was captivated by the battle between the golden figure and the Heavenly Emperor.

Only Lin Ye was not; he had been keeping his attention on Yuee, so naturally, he heard their conversation.

Since just a moment ago, his heart had been beating faster for no reason.

These people seemed to be the mythical figures from his hometown, that blue planet!

The Dao Ancestor, the Buddha, the Fairy, the True Monarch, and that golden figure is...

Were they from that azure blue planet, and what was going on with the descendants of sinners?!

Lin Ye's brain was spinning frantically; his head ached a little, as if he were about to grow a brain.

Just as Lin Ye was pondering.

The battle between the powerful figures over there had reached its end; the Heavenly Emperor was being beaten back step by step by the golden figure and could no longer hold his ground.

That golden figure was like an invincible God of War, fighting his way right in front of the Heavenly Emperor. Immortal light swirled around his body, Divine Power boiled, and his Killing Intent manifested into a crimson cloud that enveloped the immortal palace, making people's legs go weak and their minds tremble.

"This Emperor will not lose!!! This Emperor's choice was correct!!!"

The Heavenly Emperor retreated quickly and sat on the throne. In his only remaining hand, a glowing Spirit Stone appeared, with strange power constantly surging within it.

"He wants to summon the Spirit Race?! Kill him!"

The God of War holding the three-pointed, double-edged spear roared and prepared to close in.

"Too late! Hahahaha!"

Hum...

Accompanied by a flickering of light, a transparent shield appeared on the Heavenly Emperor's body, enveloping him within it.

The power emitted by the shield was inviolable and untouchable; it was an absolute defense.

The Heavenly Emperor let out a crazed laugh at this moment: "Everything is too late! You want to kill this Emperor?! Hahahaha, you cannot do it. Their power will protect me! And your final Domain will be destroyed, shattered, everything, everything will..."

Boom!!!

The voice stopped abruptly.

The Heavenly Emperor lowered his head and looked at his chest in disbelief.

There was an iron rod there, piercing through his chest and pinning him directly to the throne; the power was so strong that it made him unable to move.

The transparent shield had actually been shattered!!!

"Ho, how is this possible?! Isn't this the power of another world? Isn't it absolute!!!"

Feeling the pain in his chest and his life force constantly dissipating, the Heavenly Emperor roared in anger. He wanted to curse, to resist, to destroy all living beings in the world.

But the feeling of powerlessness that gradually surfaced made it so he couldn't even stand up.

Bang!

The Heavenly Emperor touched the iron rod with one hand and said through gritted teeth: "Do you think you have won like this? I tell you! They are coming! All ten thousand Daos will collapse, and the Dao itself will be buried directly in the Reincarnation, never to revive!"

"This Emperor... This Emperor will sooner or later..."

Bang!!!

The golden figure walked straight up to the Heavenly Emperor, and before the other could finish speaking, he threw a punch.

Following a massive shockwave, the Heavenly Emperor lost his life instantly, pinned and killed on the throne.

"Trying to threaten your grandpa here? What 'they' and 'you'—if one comes, I'll kill one! If two come, I'll kill a pair!!!"

Just as the golden figure intended to retract his iron rod, the old man riding the green ox walked over slowly.

"Leave this Divine Needle here."

"Hmm?"

The golden figure looked at the old man in confusion, not knowing what he meant.

"He was right. If those people return, they might be able to resurrect him. With the Divine Needle placed here, no one but you can touch it. Coupled with my Seal, he will be pinned here for eternity."

"You're still the ruthless one!"

The golden figure shrugged. For his cultivation level, although an iron rod could add a bit of combat power.

Even if he lost it, it wouldn't have much of an impact.

Being able to pin this guy here is better than anything!

The old man walked forward, Divine light surging in his hands, flowing onto the iron rod. The iron rod buzzed, then became covered in rust, turning into an indestructible Seal, firmly fixed onto the Heavenly Emperor's body.

After doing all this, they walked slowly in front of this group of foreign Cultivators.

Many Cultivators began to feel uneasy.

It seemed like... they had f***ing chosen wrong again!!!

They had thought those endless Heavenly Soldiers and Generals were sure to win, but a figure appeared in the stars and annihilated all the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals.
