92: Even a quasi-emperor is nothing special.
In the outer starry sky, the smell of blood was so thick it was nauseating.
The rain of blood from the explosion of that ten-thousand-foot black fire phoenix was still falling.
That Female True Phoenix Quasi-Emperor let out a mournful cry like a cuckoo weeping blood.
"I'm going to kill you!"
She had gone mad.
The True Phoenix Immortal Sword in her hand burned with the fire of her Lifespan, and her entire being transformed into a sorrowful blood-colored rainbow, charging recklessly toward Su Xuanchen.
This was a suicidal attack.
When a Quasi-Emperor fought for their life, they could drag an Ancient Life Planet down with them to the grave.
"Fool."
Su Xuanchen stood atop the Ancient Bronze Coffin, not even lifting an eyelid.
He simply raised his right hand.
Golden light flowed as the Struggle Secret evolved.
"Buzz!"
In the Void Realm, a golden, sky-shrouding great hand condensed out of thin air.
There were no fancy Divine Abilities.
Only pure power and extreme speed.
*Slap!*
That golden great hand struck second but arrived first, cleanly and ruthlessly slapping that blood-colored rainbow.
*Clang—!*
The True Phoenix Immortal Sword let out a mournful cry and was directly slapped away into the depths of the Universe.
Su Xuanchen shook his hand, treating it as a trivial matter.
He turned his head and looked at the only remaining Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu.
At this moment, where was the slightest bit of Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu's previous arrogance?
His hair was disheveled, his whole body trembled, and his old Face was pale, devoid of any color.
He was truly terrified.
This Su Xuanchen was simply a humanoid meat grinder!
"Escape!"
Only this one thought remained in Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu's mind.
To hell with some Great Emperor Legacy or the Azure Revered Master's orders!
His life was almost gone; who gave a damn about Face!
Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu directly burned his Origin, and the Chaos airflow beneath his feet exploded, turning into a gray stream of light as he fled frantically toward the Kunxu Divine Domain.
His speed was so fast that he briefly tore through time and space.
"Running?"
Su Xuanchen looked at that stream of light and gave a cold smile.
"You broke my front door and terrified my wife."
"Now you want to leave?"
"It's too late."
Su Xuanchen took a step forward.
Xing Character Secret!
Time and space folded beneath his feet.
He appeared directly above Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu's head.
"Get down there!"
Su Xuanchen's right fist clenched tight, golden light shining as bright as a great sun.
Heavenly Emperor Fist!
*Bang!*
This punch landed solidly on Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu's back.
*Crack!*
That was the sound of a spine shattering.
"Ah—!"
Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu let out a tragic, blood-curdling scream.
The protective Magic Treasure on his body—a chaos bell replica—was smashed into pieces by this single punch.
His entire body fell like a meteorite, crashing violently into a desolate asteroid below.
The asteroid crumbled on the spot.
The dust settled.
Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu lay paralyzed in the pile of rubble, looking like a dead dog.
His Physical Body had already been reduced to a pulp; only his Primordial Spirit remained, gasping for breath and looking in terror at Su Xuanchen descending from the sky.
"Don't... don't kill me..."
Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu's Primordial Spirit couldn't stop trembling.
"I am a Grand Elder of the Chaos Holy Land... If you kill me, the Azure Revered Master will not let you off..."
"Azure Revered Master?"
Su Xuanchen landed and stepped on Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu's Primordial Spirit, grinding it down with force.
"Just as well, I also want to have a chat with that Old Demoness."
Right at that moment.
"Junior, one should show mercy whenever possible."
An indifferent, lofty voice, devoid of any human emotion, abruptly rang out in this part of the starry sky.
Immediately following that.
The Void Realm beneath Su Xuanchen's feet suddenly shifted.
A cyan great hand condensed from Chaos airflow reached out silently and grabbed Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu's Primordial Spirit.
"Hum!"
Spacetime displacement.
Su Xuanchen felt the ground beneath him go empty.
When he looked again.
Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu's Primordial Spirit had already appeared a thousand feet away.
And beside him, a figure wearing a cyan Daoist robe quietly emerged.
The Azure Revered Master.
She still maintained her high-and-mighty appearance, surrounded by the phantoms of three thousand worlds, her aura unfathomable.
However,
Her expression was not pleasant.
One could even say it was so gloomy that it was about to drip water.
"Revered Master! Save me!"
Upon seeing his savior, Quasi-Emperor Tai Yu's Primordial Spirit immediately burst into tears and snot.
"This kid is a monster! He killed two Fellow Daoists from the True Phoenix Clan!"
The Azure Revered Master ignored this trash.
Her cyan eyes stared intently at Su Xuanchen, showing a trace of wariness.
During that spacetime displacement just now, she had actually detected resistance.
This kid's Physical Body field was ridiculously strong.
"Su Xuanchen."
The Azure Revered Master spoke, her voice cold.
"This seat admits to having misjudged you."
"You do have some skill; you could even be called a Prodigy."
"But..."
Her tone shifted as a terrifying pressure belonging to a Peak Quasi-Emperor overwhelmed Su Xuanchen.
"Before this seat, you are still not enough."
"This seat is a Peak Quasi-Emperor, with half a foot in the Emperor Realm."
"You are but a Great Saint; even if your combat power is Heaven-Defying, you are ultimately an ant."
Su Xuanchen picked his ear, looking impatient.
"Old Demoness, you talk too much."
"Where is the person?"
"Where is my wife, Gu Lingshuang?"
The Azure Revered Master gave a cold laugh.
She waved her large sleeve.
The Void Realm behind her opened, revealing a cyan Small World.
In the center of the Small World, a cage was suspended.
Gu Lingshuang was trapped inside; her clothes were slightly disheveled, but her aura was stable, and she had not suffered any substantial harm.
"You want her?"
The Azure Revered Master gave a playful smile.
"Kneel."
"Kowtow three times to this seat and cripple your own cultivation."
"This seat might consider leaving you both intact corpses."
In the distance.
When the two Old Ancestors of the Hun Kun Academy saw this scene, their hearts leaped into their throats.
"This is trouble."
The white-haired Old Ancestor's expression was grave.
"The Azure Revered Master is only a dao body, but she still possesses the Realm of a Peak Quasi-Emperor."
"Moreover, she controls the Law of time and space; her methods are supernatural and unpredictable."
"Su Xuanchen's combat power is formidable, but he suffers a great disadvantage in terms of Realm. It will be very difficult to break that Small World to save her."
The black-robed Old Ancestor also let out a sigh.
"He's been caught by his weakness now."
However.
Looking at that Small World, Su Xuanchen didn't kneel; instead, he laughed.
He laughed brightly.
"Old Demoness, do you think you're very humorous?"
"Do you really think this broken cage can hold my wife?"
The Azure Revered Master frowned.
"Still stubborn even at death's door."
"This Small World is formed from this seat's Origin. Unless a Great Emperor personally arrives, otherwise..."
...Meanwhile.
In the True Saint Continent, the Su Family's Purple Heaven Palace.
It was already a field of ruins.
But amidst the ruins, one place remained perfectly intact.
That was the core of the Su Family, the place where the myriad things mother qi cauldron suppressed.
Phoenix Void Dao and the others, who were originally "besieging" the Purple Heaven Palace, suddenly noticed the ground beneath their feet shaking violently.
"What's going on?!"
Phoenix Void Dao clutched his smashed half-Face, looking around in terror.
In the center of the Su Family square.
That Golden Dragon of Destiny, which had been coiled around the myriad things mother qi cauldron, suddenly opened its eyes.
In those golden dragon eyes, there was nothing but playfulness and cruelty.
It looked at him as if he were a grasshopper that didn't know whether it was dead or alive.
And beneath the Golden Dragon.
A wretched figure was sprawled on the ground. It was Phoenix Void Dao, who had been slapped away by Su Xuanchen earlier and had secretly sneaked back to try and raid the home base.
He was currently grabbing Yan Ruyu's ankle, wanting to take her hostage.
"Hehe, little beauty, come with me..."
Phoenix Void Dao had a lewd smile on his Face.
As long as he caught Yan Ruyu, he would have a bargaining chip to negotiate with Su Xuanchen!
However.
Yan Ruyu looked down at him, her eyes showing no fear, but rather pity.
"You really are stupid."
"What?"
Phoenix Void Dao was stunned.
"Roar!"
That Golden Dragon of Destiny let out a roar and opened its mouth wide.
A terrifying suction force erupted.
"No—!"
Phoenix Void Dao only had time to let out a scream.
His whole body had no power to resist and was directly swallowed in one gulp by the Golden Dragon of Destiny.
Crunch.
It didn't even let out a burp.
A generation's Phoenix Emperor Son, a Prodigy ranked ninth on the Great Saint Ranking.
Just like that, he became a snack for the Su Family's gate-keeping dragon.
Immediately following that.
"Buzz—!"
That myriad things mother qi cauldron, which had been silent all along, suddenly began to vibrate violently.
The sun, moon, and star patterns on the cauldron's body lit up.
A grand and vast will awakened from within the cauldron.
That was the Divine Thought left behind by Su Xuanchen!
"Rise!"
A low shout crossed through space, echoing above the Purple Heaven Palace.
The myriad things mother qi cauldron rose from the ground.
It smashed through the Void Realm, trailing a long tail of Xuanhuang tail flame like a comet flowing upstream, and shot violently toward the outer starry sky... In the outer starry sky.
The Azure Revered Master had not yet finished speaking.
*Crack!*
A crisp sound of cracking came from the Small World behind her.
The Azure Revered Master's expression changed drastically.
Inside the cage imprisoning Gu Lingshuang.
In Gu Lingshuang's hand, that chaos green lotus, which was originally sealed, suddenly erupted with millions of feet of green light.
"My husband is calling me."
Gu Lingshuang opened her eyes, her golden pupils filled with coldness.
"This broken cage of yours is about to shatter."
She waved her delicate hand.
The chaos green lotus shook gently.
This was Su Xuanchen remotely controlling the Emperor Weapon!
A coordinated strike from inside and out!
"Rip—!"
That indestructible Small World barrier was as fragile as paper before the revived Emperor Weapon.
A huge hole was directly sliced open.
*Poof!*
As the Small World was damaged, the Azure Revered Master suffered a backlash; her body swayed, and cyan blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth.
"How can this be?!"
She looked in astonishment at Gu Lingshuang, who walked calmly out of the crack.
"How could you possibly break through this seat's Seal?!"
"Your Seal?"
Gu Lingshuang walked to Su Xuanchen's side and took his arm, a mocking smile appearing on her Face.
"Old Demoness, this dao body of yours is already at the end of its rope, isn't it?"
"Saving that trash Tai Yu just now must have cost you quite a bit of your Origin, right?"
"And now you've suffered a backlash from the Emperor Weapon."
Gu Lingshuang looked the Azure Revered Master up and down, hitting the nail on the head.
"Your current strength is at most at the Fifth Heaven Quasi-Emperor level."
"Fifth Heaven?"
Hearing this, Su Xuanchen's eyes instantly lit up.
It was like a hungry wolf seeing a fat little lamb.
"Wife, are you sure?"
"I'm sure."
Gu Lingshuang nodded.
"Her aura is declining; this dao body won't last much longer."
"Hahaha! Good!"
Su Xuanchen laughed toward the sky, his laughter full of wildness.
"Since you're a paper tiger, don't blame me for being impolite!"
"I originally wanted to spare your life, but since you're so weak..."
"Then stay here and guard my house!"
The Azure Revered Master trembled with rage.
"Arrogant brat!"
"Even if this seat's strength is damaged, killing you is still like slaughtering a dog!"
She formed Seals with both hands, and the surrounding starry sky began to collapse, turning into a massive black hole that tried to swallow Su Xuanchen and his wife.
Just then.
"Rumble—!"
A heart-palpitating fluctuation rapidly approached from the direction of the True Saint Continent.
The Azure Revered Master snapped her head back.
She saw a great cauldron wreathed in mysterious yellow mother qi, smashing through all the meteorites along the way, whistling toward them with a terrifying power that suppressed the heavens and the myriad worlds.
The myriad things mother qi cauldron!
It had arrived!
