357: Chapter 357 The Yin Heaven Emperor Appears
As the giant red Dragon closed in on Cao Yang, with every inch it advanced, countless abandoned Small Universes surrounding Cao Yang shattered and vanished like fragile glass, turning into nothingness.
Seeing the situation becoming increasingly critical, Cao Yang could not help but frown, thinking to himself, "This won't do. If I let this red Dragon continue to approach, I fear it will soon affect those Small Universes that still harbor living beings."
Thinking of this, Cao Yang hesitated no longer. His figure flashed as he took flight, speeding toward the aggressive, giant red lightning Dragon.
"Hmph, today let me see just how powerful your so-called Chaos Divine Thunder can be. Witness my Divine Ability—Palm Chaos Profound Realm!"
Upon nearing the giant red lightning Dragon, Cao Yang let out a low shout, immediately unleashing his trump card.
In an instant, a massive, golden-bodied palm appeared out of thin air, and in front of this giant palm, it pushed a gray sphere far larger than the entire Universe.
This sphere was like a star containing endless energy and mysterious power, charging toward the giant Dragon formed by the Chaos Divine Thunder with a speed that transcended human imagination, like a bolt of lightning.
As the Palm Chaos Profound Realm whistled past, the Void Realm in its wake seemed to be torn into fragments. The previously visible Dao patterns of the Dao instantly became ethereal, and even the established rules between heaven and earth were easily shattered like fragile paper.
In the blink of an eye, only deep, pitch-black black holes remained. These black holes connected to one another, forming an immensely wide giant black hole passage that extended into the distance, as if leading to an unknown abyss.
"Oh no!" Accompanied by this exclamation, Cao Yang's expression changed drastically. The scene before him was truly too shocking and astonishing, to the point where he could hardly believe what he was seeing.
This power was simply too strong! He had never expected that the blow he unleashed with all his might would produce such terrifying destructive force.
The violent and surging energy fluctuations seemed as if they would tear the entire Universe apart. If this Palm Chaos Profound Realm were to collide head-on with the Chaos Divine Thunder, the resulting shockwaves would likely deal a devastating blow to the seven continents.
Conservatively estimating, at least more than half of the landmasses would be shattered into countless fragments, completely reduced to a desolate wasteland. "Heavenly Emperor Hall, come!"
At this critical juncture, Cao Yang roared toward the sky without hesitation. At the same time, under the shocked and incredulous gazes of the many God Kings and Immortal Emperors in the Immortal Realm, the iconic building of the Immortal Realm's number one power—the Heavenly Court—the Heavenly Emperor Hall, which stood above the clouds and served as the headquarters of the Heavenly Court, suddenly shook violently.
The earth trembled, the winds and clouds changed color, and a massive roaring sound echoed through the skies like a peal of thunder. The magnificent Heavenly Emperor Hall and the ninety-nine Empress Palaces surrounding it were suddenly grabbed and lifted by an invisible giant hand, soaring toward the sky at extreme speed.
In the blink of an eye, this massive palace complex, symbolizing the supreme authority of the Heavenly Court, completely vanished from people's sight, leaving only an empty ruin in its place.
The people in the Heavenly Court immediately fell into extreme panic, especially the Immortals at the bottom, who were in total disarray. They fled in all directions, their cries echoing across the sky, and the entire Heavenly Court was enveloped in an atmosphere of fear as if the end of the world had arrived.
However, it did not take long for the people in the Heavenly Court to quickly calm down. Because at this moment, a majestic and solemn voice, like a great bell, suddenly came from the vast and boundless Void Realm: "I am the Lord of the Heavenly Court—the Heavenly Emperor! The Heavenly Emperor Hall has now been withdrawn by me. The high-ranking members of the Heavenly Court shall immediately rebuild a new palace!"
Once this voice was uttered, it was as if a bolt of thunder had exploded in the high heavens, shaking everyone's soul. Those in the Heavenly Court revealed expressions of awe, especially those powerhouses whose cultivation base had reached the Immortal King Realm and above, who dared not show the slightest negligence.
Almost throughout the entire Immortal Realm, all those who possessed the strength of the Immortal King Realm and above knelt on both knees in the direction of the Heavenly Emperor Hall, shouting in unison: "We obey the order of Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor!"
Their voices converged like a rolling torrent, resounding between heaven and earth. The reason for this scene was simple: only powerhouses at the Immortal King Realm or above could hear the entirety of the Heavenly Emperor's voice. And at this moment, all the major forces in the Immortal Realm were under the command of the Heavenly Court. In the face of such absolute authority, who would dare not follow the decree?
In the vast and mysterious Great Universe, a scene of tranquility filled with the power of the Chaos Divine Thunder unfolded before the eyes. Just then, a dazzling golden light streaked across the dark Void Realm like a meteor, speeding toward Cao Yang below with lightning speed.
This golden light was extremely fast, reaching the Void Realm above Cao Yang's head in the blink of an eye, and it entered his body without any obstruction.
Prior to this, the moment Cao Yang successfully achieved a Breakthrough to the Chaos Realm, he had keenly sensed the existence of the Heavenly Emperor Hall. That faint connection was like an invisible thread, tightly tugging at his heartstrings.
At that moment, Cao Yang had thought to himself, "With just a slight shift of my thoughts, I should be able to recall the Heavenly Emperor Hall at will, right?"
Facts proved that his idea was entirely correct. Cao Yang parted his lips slightly, focused his mind, and after calling out for the Heavenly Emperor Hall, a powerful mental force surged out, and the Heavenly Emperor Hall, which had been far away in the Immortal Realm, was indeed recalled in an instant.
This legendary divine hall exuded an ancient and majestic Aura, finally falling steadily into Cao Yang's control, and he carefully placed it into his Inner World.
At this moment, Cao Yang had become the absolute Dominator of this Universe. The Void Realm around him, an area the size of the Divine Realm, had all been shrouded by his Invincible Domain. Within this range, no power could contend with him.
Cao Yang waved his arm nonchalantly. The motion appeared understated and calm, but in that very instant, a jaw-dropping scene occurred.
Those Chaos Divine Thunder and Chaos portals that had previously caused countless powerhouses to change color in fear and dread—those terrifying existences claimed to be capable of destroying the world—were now like the most humble ants. Before Cao Yang, they had absolutely no power to resist; before they could even let out a whimper, they were easily annihilated in an instant.
The entire process was as fast as lightning, making it impossible for anyone to capture the details. Even more shocking was that after this destruction, not even a trace of the Aura belonging to the Chaos Divine Thunder and the Chaos portals remained. It was as if they had never existed in this world, vanishing without a trace, leaving not even the slightest mark on this heaven and earth.
At this time, Cao Yang's face was brimming with an indescribable sense of satisfaction. He narrowed his eyes slightly, the corners of his mouth turned up, revealing an expression of extreme enjoyment. He muttered to himself, "Invincibility is so satisfying! It has been a long time since I experienced this feeling of invincibility; it really is so comfortable!"
"Sister Sipan, how could this Chaos Tribulation be so weak and incompetent? Brother Cao only waved his hand casually, and it disappeared without a trace!" Ouyang Liuli was full of suspicion.
"Exactly! Look at the huge commotion Brother Cao made earlier; I thought he was about to go through a fierce battle! Who would have thought..." Second Senior Sister Su Xuan also furrowed her brows, her face showing confusion.
For a moment, many of the women present cast their gaze toward Hong Sipan and Tian Qing, who had the deepest cultivation base, seemingly wanting to obtain a reasonable explanation from them.
Tian Qing gently shook her head and said softly, "I am also completely ignorant of this matter; I didn't see how Cao Yang could have made his move."
At this time, Hong Sipan spoke thoughtfully, "Sisters, I wonder if you have noticed that Brother Cao's appearance this time is somewhat similar to when he killed the Purple Source Ghost Emperor in the Divine Realm back then?" As she spoke, she narrowed her eyes slightly, recalling the scene at that time.
"Sister Sipan is actually saying that Brother Cao already possesses the Invincible Domain? But as far as I know, shouldn't that ability be limited to being unleashed only around the Heavenly Emperor Hall?" Long Xiaoxiao blinked her lively, large eyes, asking with a face full of suspicion.
"That's right, Sister Xiaoxiao is absolutely correct! But in my opinion, Junior Brother has indeed mastered this Invincible Domain, without a doubt. It seems this is the only way to explain it; Junior Brother must have successfully achieved a Breakthrough to the Chaos Realm, allowing him to recall the Heavenly Emperor Hall from a great distance." Fourth Senior Sister Fu Xiaoya nodded slightly in agreement and analyzed thoughtfully.
"Then we will know the truth when Brother Cao comes over later." Second Senior Sister Su Xuan parted her red lips and said softly. The other women nodded in agreement, and then they all cast their gazes back toward Cao Yang, who was still suspended high in the Void Realm.
However, what left them feeling puzzled was that Cao Yang stood still in the ethereal mid-air for a long time, as if petrified, showing no signs of descending.
This situation truly left them feeling extremely puzzled. If Cao Yang truly possessed the Invincible Domain, then no matter what kind of difficulties, obstacles, or turbulent tribulations he faced, he could easily resolve them with a gentle wave of his hand. Since that was the case, he clearly had no need to continue enduring the baptism of this Chaos Tribulation.
Moreover, they had long known from the sisters Bao Yuer that Cao Yang originally had no need to undergo this Chaos Tribulation; the reason he chose to resolutely embark on the path of Undergoing Tribulation was merely to use this opportunity to let them observe and learn.
"Come out! I have long known you were here." Cao Yang's gaze was like a torch as he looked straight at the seemingly empty Void Realm not far beside him, speaking in a firm and steady tone.
However, the surroundings remained silent, as if what he had just said was merely talking to himself against the air. But Cao Yang was not shaken by this in the slightest. He shook his head slightly and continued to say loudly, "There is no need to hide anymore. Although you have hidden extremely cleverly, the moment I unleashed the Divine Ability 'Palm Chaos Profound Realm' just now, you had nowhere to hide. I think Your Excellency must be the legendary Yintian Great Emperor, right? The person revered by the world as the Guardian of the River of Time of this vast Great Universe."
Sure enough, as Cao Yang's voice fell, the originally calm Void Realm suddenly rippled, and then a figure slowly emerged. The newcomer was tall and upright, standing as towering as a mountain; his face was exceptionally handsome, and between his sword-like brows and star-like eyes, he revealed an innate majesty and domineering Aura. This person was none other than the legendary Yintian Great Emperor.
The middle-aged man's brows were tightly knitted together, forming a deep " river" shape. His gaze was like two sharp bolts of lightning, locked tightly onto Cao Yang, and he spoke slowly, "It is truly unbelievable! Who could have thought that the insignificant ant from back then, who had not even stepped into the threshold of the Source Realm, has now become so powerful? It hasn't been long, and you have not only successfully achieved a Breakthrough to the Chaos Realm, but your strength already poses a serious threat to me; it is simply inconceivable."
Hearing this, a hint of sarcasm appeared on Cao Yang's face, and he responded bluntly, "Heh, I also did not expect that you, a person known as the Guardian of the River of Time, would actually use the banner of protecting the entire Great Universe to engage in such despicable acts. You not only secretly stole the Heavenly Dao authority of the Great Universe, but you also unscrupulously and frantically plundered various precious resources within the Great Universe. In my opinion, I fear that over ninety percent of the chaos stone and various Chaos Materials that have appeared in this Great Universe have already fallen into the private pockets of you, this so-called Guardian of the Great Universe, right?"
Facing Cao Yang's questioning and sarcasm, a chillingly cold light instantly flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes. After a cold snort, he retorted stiffly, "Hmph! I have always been wholeheartedly protecting this Universe, and I have put in countless efforts and hard work during this time. Charging some necessary fees is completely reasonable and justified."
Regarding this sophistry from the middle-aged man, Cao Yang just nodded slightly, indicating agreement, but then his tone shifted, "Hmm, what you said is not without reason. After all, compared to those who openly and brazenly rob others of their property, your underhanded conduct is indeed slightly more clever. However, even so, it cannot hide your greedy and selfish nature."
