2: Chapter 2 Attacking the Forbidden Zone of Undying Mountain [

Ultimate Sublimation, returning to the Great Emperor status, and then being certain to die—this was what all Supremes were most unwilling to do.

"If you dare to undergo Ultimate Sublimation, I'll leave without a second thought, but do you dare?! Hahaha!"

"Courting death!"

Stone Emperor was finally enraged. He was an Ancient Emperor who had once suppressed an era. When had he ever suffered such an insult?

Even facing the Great Emperor of the current age, he had his own pride.

Stone Emperor went all out, and the entire world was petrified. This was his Imperial Dao Law—All Things Return to Stone!

"A mere trick!"

Chu Tianjiao's Chaos Body erupted, Chaos Qi pervaded, forcibly dispersing the petrified Law.

He slashed back at the Stone Emperor, the blade light containing his Dao and Law of eight hundred years.

*Splatter!*

One of Stone Emperor's hands was severed, stone blood splashing. That blood fell to the ground, directly corroding the earth into bottomless pits.

"You!!!"

Stone Emperor was furious, but a hint of fear flashed in his eyes. This Chu Tianjiao was too strong, stronger than they had estimated!

"Everyone, come out! I don't believe he can withstand all of us Supremes!" Stone Emperor roared.

In the depths of the Undying Mountain, three more auras awakened. All the Supremes of the Undying Mountain had mobilized—eight Supremes!

"Hahaha!!! Eight Supremes besieging the current Great Emperor! Good! Good! Good! Let me see if you can drive me into a corner!"

Chu Tianjiao felt the pressure increase sharply, but his Battle Intent burned to the extreme.

"Tyrant Blade Final Chapter! Wuji Blade!!!"

He pushed his Chaos Body and Tyrant Blade Heart Scripture to their limits. This strike was the Peak of everything he had learned in his life. The blade light was simple and unadorned, yet it contained the Profound Truths of 'Wu' and 'Ji'—Nothing is Unbreakable, Ultimate Sublimation!

"Kill!!!"

The eight Supremes were also truly enraged, no longer holding back.

They knew that if they couldn't heavily wound Chu Tianjiao today, they would live in his shadow for the next twenty thousand years.

Terrifying Great Dao Laws pervaded; the space inside the Undying Mountain constantly shattered and reformed. If not for the divine nature of the Undying Mountain itself, this area would have long been reduced to Chaos.

Even so, all living beings within a million miles around the Undying Mountain were affected, instantly turning into ashes.

On the Emperor Burial Star, countless Holy Lands and great sects were terrified, opening domain gates to flee to the Central Region of the Eastern Wasteland. A battle between a Great Emperor and Supremes was a world-ending disaster!

The Supremes of other restricted zones turned their gazes toward the Undying Mountain.

In the Ancient Mine of Primordial Beginning, an ancient existence whispered: "This youth is too terrifying; he absolutely cannot be allowed to remain."

"He has just become an Emperor; his blood vitality, mindset, and various states are at their Peak. How can we stop him? Will you go?"

"That's eight Supremes! And that old fellow Stone Emperor is there, yet they still couldn't suppress that bastard!"

"Attaining the Dao in eight hundred years, a Chaos Body... his combat power has already surpassed Nuwa from back then."

"Nuwa... Hmph! Before she died, she took one of our Supremes with her. It's a pity we couldn't extract her heart's blood in the end."

"Just as annoying as that Fuxi. Has it become an unspoken rule for current Human Race Great Emperors? They all want to take a few of us Supremes down with them in their later years?"

"Say less. Those dead Supremes were just too greedy, wanting to monopolize it, and then they were set up."

"Back then I said at least four Supremes should be sent, but they didn't listen. Each one wanted to swallow the heart's blood alone, and that was the end of it."

The Supremes communicated via Divine Thought, their tones carrying deep wariness.

Inside the Undying Mountain, the battle had reached a fever pitch.

Chu Tianjiao was covered in blood, Emperor blood spilling; every drop could crush a mountain range.

His chest was pierced by a Supreme's Imperial Dao Law, leaving a bloody hole through which light could be seen from front to back.

But he also left indelible scars on his opponents—the Tyrant Blade severed a Supreme's Dao foundation. Even if that Supreme survived, it would be difficult to return to their Peak state.

"Cough, cough, cough... As expected, is it still not enough?"

After performing the final blade strike, Chu Tianjiao retreated several hundred meters, gasping for breath.

The Chaos Body was frantically repairing his injuries, but the siege of the eight Supremes was too terrifying; the speed of repair couldn't keep up with the rate of new injuries.

The eight Supremes on the opposite side weren't faring well either.

One of Stone Emperor's hands was broken, and another Supreme's forehead was grazed by the blade light, nearly splitting open their Sendai.

Everyone was covered in scars, Emperor blood and Sovereign blood mixing together, staining the Undying Mountain a strange color.

"Hmph! I'll come back to meet you all once my blade techniques improve further. Just you wait; one day, I will definitely flatten your restricted zones."

Chu Tianjiao left behind these harsh words, then stepped out, directly tearing through the Void Realm to leave the Undying Mountain.

The eight Supremes did not pursue.

They knew that even if they could keep Chu Tianjiao there, they would have to pay the price of at least two Supremes undergoing Ultimate Sublimation.

It wasn't worth it.

"This youth... has already come into his own." Stone Emperor looked at his severed arm, his tone complex.

"We really shouldn't have provoked him. Back then, he only took a few stalks of Saint Medicine; why did it come to this?" a Supreme sighed.

"It's too late to say this now. Prepare to face his revenge; with his character, he will definitely not let this go."

"And even if we hadn't acted then, given the nature of Human Race Great Emperors, do you expect them not to attack our restricted zones?"

Hearing this, all the Supremes fell silent. It seemed the recent Human Race Great Emperors had indeed formed a sort of unspoken rule.

...

After leaving the Undying Mountain, Chu Tianjiao did not return to his own dojo but came to a deserted Star Domain to sit and heal.

Although this battle was tragic, his gains were immense.

Fighting for his life against eight Supremes allowed his understanding of the Tyrant Blade Heart Method to deepen by another level, and he also saw his own shortcomings.

"No wonder countless Seniors and juniors couldn't wipe out the restricted zones, and even self-preservation in their later years was an issue. There are too many Supremes in these restricted zones."

Chu Tianjiao couldn't help but sigh. He hadn't expected there to be eight Supremes in the Undying Mountain Restricted Zone alone!

Ancient Mine of Primordial Beginning, God Ruins, Reincarnation Underworld, Immortal Mausoleum, Heaven... the total number of Supremes in all restricted zones combined was at least over forty!

No matter how invincible the current Great Emperor was, it was impossible to fight forty-plus Supremes at once.

What was even more terrifying was that if pushed too hard, they would undergo Ultimate Sublimation, returning to the Great Emperor status to trade their lives for his.

"But... so what?"

A look of determination flashed in Chu Tianjiao's eyes: "Since I, Chu Tianjiao, have come to this world, I must be the best! Many Supremes? Then I'll kill them one by one! Kill until they are afraid! Kill until they dare not emerge into the world!"

This was his Dao—the Tyrant's Way!

After his injuries healed, Chu Tianjiao began his reckoning.

The first stop was a Supreme Imperial Dynasty in the Big Dipper Astral Region.

"Great Emperor Jiaoheng, have mercy! Back then, we were only following orders!" The Emperor of a divine dynasty knelt on the ground, trembling.

"Following orders? Whose orders?" Chu Tianjiao asked coldly.

"It was... the existences in the restricted zones hinted to us..." The Emperor did not dare to hide anything.

"Then you can go to your death."

The Tyrant Blade swept across, and the entire Yuhua Divine Dynasty turned into ruins. Chu Tianjiao did not kill the ordinary Disciples, only the high-level members who had participated in the ambush against him back then.

"Every debt has its debtor; I do not kill indiscriminately, but I will not let a single enemy go."

Chu Tianjiao's voice spread throughout the Big Dipper.
