46: Chapter 46 The Emperor Cannot Be Humiliated! Devouring Heaven Demon Art!

Starry Sky Battlefield.

Emperor Yuhua struck out with another palm, his Imperial Dao Law transforming into a giant hand covering ten thousand li, sending Xiao Nannan flying away along with her blade.

Xiao Nannan spat out blood, crashing through three desolate stars before she could barely stop.

But she stood up immediately, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and the cold light in her eyes intensified.

"Is this all the ability you have?" she sneered. "No wonder you had to rely on a sneak attack to injure my husband back then."

"You are courting death!" Emperor Yuhua was furious and charged again.

But just as he was about to reach Xiao Nannan, the fluctuations of the emperor tribulation in the Cosmic Borderlands suddenly reached a Peak—

The eighth Lightning Tribulation descended! It was a tribulation of ten thousand weapons; blades, spears, swords, halberds, bells, tripods, towers, and furnaces, all formed from lightning, each one exuding the pressure of a Quasi-Emperor!

And the one Undergoing Tribulation actually shattered all the lightning weapons with a single punch, their aura climbing once again!

Emperor Yuhua was startled, and his movements slowed by a half-beat.

It was in this moment of distraction—

Xiao Nannan moved.

She formed seals with her hands, the devouring phenomenon behind her expanding to the limit, her entire body seemingly turning into a black hole as she instantly appeared before Emperor Yuhua!

"Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art—Devour Dao!"

She was not trying to devour Emperor Yuhua's energy, but to devour his... Dao!

Emperor Yuhua's expression changed drastically, and he wanted to retreat, but it was already too late.

Xiao Nannan's hand pressed onto his chest.

The moment Xiao Nannan's hand pressed against Emperor Yuhua's chest, the devouring black hole expanded instantly, and a terrifying suction force frantically tore at the Imperial Dao Law and life Origin within Emperor Yuhua's body!

Emperor Yuhua's expression changed violently. He could feel his Dao being forcibly stripped away and devoured. That power was extremely tyrannical, and even his Imperial Dao Law as an emperor could hardly resist it!

"You... how dare you devour my Dao!" Emperor Yuhua roared, his Imperial Dao Law boiling, transforming into billions of golden chains that lashed out, wanting to shake Xiao Nannan away.

But Xiao Nannan had entered a strange state—Chaos Qi swirled in her eyes, the devouring phenomenon behind her expanded to the limit, and she seemed to have transformed into a true black hole, from which even light could not escape!

"Refine... for me!"

She gritted her teeth and whispered, running the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art to its limit!

Emperor Yuhua could clearly feel that a piece of his emperor Origin had been forcibly torn off and merged into her body! The intense pain of being plundered and devoured made him nearly go mad!

"Cough—!"

Emperor Yuhua spat out emperor blood, the blood containing rich fragments of golden Law, each drop as heavy as a star, smashing several desolate ancient stars below.

But he was, after all, a reigning Emperor, and at the critical moment of life and death, he erupted with an unprecedented will to survive!

"Get lost!!!"

Emperor Yuhua endured the severe injury, his remaining Imperial Dao Law exploding completely, transforming into a brilliant divine light that pierced through the Star Domain and slammed fiercely into Xiao Nannan's chest!

"Bang—!!!"

Xiao Nannan flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing through the Void Realm barriers of three Star Domains before she could barely stabilize her figure.

Her silver hair was disheveled, she was covered in blood beneath her mask, and a bloody hole appeared in her chest, piercing through from front to back, as Chaos blood spilled into the Starry Sky.

"Cough, cough... Damn it!" Emperor Yuhua clutched his chest, his face as pale as paper. He could feel that at least thirty percent of his Origin had been devoured! That was his accumulation of many years, yet it had been forcibly snatched away by a Quasi-Emperor!

"What a vicious Cultivation Technique!" Emperor Yuhua's eyes were filled with a mix of shock and rage as he stared fixedly at Xiao Nannan, who was flying back rapidly from the distance.

On the other side, Xiao Nannan wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, the bloody hole in her chest healing rapidly under the nourishment of the divine liquid from the immortal peach tree.

There was not a hint of retreat in her eyes; instead, her Battle Intent grew even stronger—after devouring thirty percent of Emperor Yuhua's Origin, she could feel her Chaos Body transforming once again, only a hair's breadth away from that final Perfection!

"Tyrant Blade, assist me!"

She whispered, and the Tyrant Blade in her hand hummed, nine-colored immortal gold patterns weaving across the blade, its emperor might fully awakening!

"Kill!"

Xiao Nannan turned into a stream of light and charged at Emperor Yuhua again!

This time, not only did the devouring phenomenon appear behind her, but a scene of Chaos opening the heavens was also evolving—clear Qi rising to become heaven, turbid Qi sinking to become earth, Yin and Yang separating, and the Five Elements rotating!

This was a portion of the "Emperor's Dao" that she had forcibly analyzed and plundered while devouring Emperor Yuhua's Origin!

"The Emperor cannot be humiliated!!!"

Emperor Yuhua had been severely injured by Xiao Nannan repeatedly, and his mentality had completely collapsed.

If a Supreme of the same level had injured him, he could have accepted it, but Xiao Nannan was only at the Quasi-Emperor Peak!

How could this be?!

He was a dignified reigning Emperor, holding the heavenly heart mark, an existence that suppressed an entire era, yet he was actually being beaten by a Quasi-Emperor! He had even had thirty percent of his Origin devoured by the other party!

A huge humiliation!

Emperor Yuhua was absolutely furious, but after reaching the Peak of anger, he fell into a cold, rational state instead.

He took a deep breath, the madness in his eyes receding, replaced by the indifference and arrogance that belonged to an Emperor.

"Die."

He calmly spat out the word and slowly raised his hands.

At this moment, the Dao Law of the entire Star Domain began to respond to his call! Although the heavenly heart mark had not yet been completely squeezed out, he was still an Emperor and could still mobilize a portion of the Universe's authority!

"Hum—!!!"

An invisible suppression from heaven and earth descended, as if billions of divine mountains were pressing down on Xiao Nannan! Her forward speed plummeted, and the Chaos Qi around her was suppressed until it dimmed by three parts!

"Using heaven and earth as a prison, and the ten thousand Dao as locks," Emperor Yuhua's voice was cold. "No matter how strong a Quasi-Emperor is, they are merely borrowing the power of heaven and earth. And I am the master of heaven and earth!"

He took a step forward, his Imperial Dao Law transforming into billions of Order Divine Chains that reached out from the depths of the Void Realm, sealing off all directions and strangling toward Xiao Nannan!

Facing Emperor Yuhua's sudden change, Xiao Nannan was caught somewhat off guard.

Although she had devoured a portion of the emperor Origin, her understanding of the "Emperor's Dao" was still shallow, and now, suppressed by the power of heaven and earth, her movements suddenly became sluggish.

"Chi! Chi! Chi!"

The Order Divine Chains pierced through the Void Realm, leaving trails of bloody wounds on her body!

Even with the Tyrant Blade cutting through nearly half of the divine chains, and even with the immortal peach tree constantly repairing her wounded body, Xiao Nannan still fell into a passive position, being beaten by Emperor Yuhua in turn!

"Bang!"

Another palm struck down, half of Xiao Nannan's body exploded, and Chaos blood dyed the Starry Sky red.

She let out a muffled groan and retreated rapidly, running the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art frantically to devour the surrounding broken fragments of Law to replenish herself.

But she did not retreat.

Instead, an even hotter Battle Intent burned in her eyes!

"Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art—!"

She formed seals with her hands, and within the devouring phenomenon behind her, that blurry female phantom opened her eyes for the first time!

What kind of eyes were those—hollow, deep, as if they could devour All Heavens and Myriad Worlds, and as if they contained the great power to open the heavens and earth!

The phantom raised its hand, synchronizing its movements with Xiao Nannan.

"Boom—!!!"

The devouring Domain expanded again, and this time, even the heaven and earth Law mobilized by Emperor Yuhua was forcibly twisted and devoured! The Order Divine Chains shattered inch by inch, and the suppression of heaven and earth began to loosen!

Xiao Nannan went against the trend and engaged in a fierce battle with Emperor Yuhua! The two fought from one Star Domain to another, and wherever they passed, stars shattered, the Void Realm collapsed, and the Dao wailed!
