Chi You's Flag reappeared in the world, the once clear sky of Treasure Extreme Cave Heaven was suddenly filled with Calamity Clouds, and Evil Qi rolled and flowed.
In the faintness, a sharp friction sound arose, like a sharp knife slicing through glass, the sound was piercing and sent shivers down one's spine.
The Emperor gripped the sword in his hand tightly, his murky eyes staring intently at the fluttering Red Flag, with distorted traces left in his pupils by the flapping flag.
The sharp friction sound was precisely coming from this.
The All Heaven Divine Sha carried on Chi You's Flag sliced through space, causing minute damage to the space, which was then automatically repaired, hence emitting such a terrifying sound.
The Chi You's Flag, manifested by Jiang Li, was stronger.
Because of the reforging of the Great Circle Sword, it further simulated the shape of the Annihilation Spear, with the combination of Five Weapons, Chi You's Flag appeared more complete.
A dreadful aura instantly permeated the world, as Jiang Li held Chi You's Flag, the colors of black and white flickered abruptly.
All colors between heaven and earth were replaced by black and white, everything seemed to stagnate at that moment, and the extremely sinister Qi Mechanism locked onto the Emperor.
The enormous oppressive power was everywhere, the entire world was crushing down on the Emperor, forcing him to surge his blood and Qi, urging the last ounce of vitality within his aged body.
He had a premonition that today, he, the Emperor Dazhou, might fall here.
"I, will not die!"
He didn't posture like before, instead using simple straightforward words to wield his Divine Skills, and as these words fell, the Emperor's complexion visibly became more rosy, even wrinkles seemed to have reduced.
Forcibly restoring his state with Divine Skills, the Emperor Sword manifested sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and grass, its entire body golden, clearly resembling one aspect of the Xuanyuan Sword.
"Invulnerable to all methods."
The omnipresent black and white suddenly blasted open a void, at its center was exactly the Emperor, and under the pull of the Qi Mechanism, Jiang Li attacked instantaneously.
"One Qi Turns into Three Emperors."
The distance in space shrank in an instant, the ends of the earth were reduced to mere inches, and three figures appeared out of thin air, extremely close.
Qi Tomb·Time Riding Six Dragons.
Wind, Thunder, Water, Fire, Mountain, Marsh, the Six Dragons emerged together, the Great Sun shone down.
The Six Qi gathered to metamorphose, the Six Dragons attacked, Qi dominated heaven and earth.
The Emperor's expression was solemn, the Emperor Sword in his hand rose heavily, majestically like the Heavenly Pillar, and descended with a torrential force like Tianhe.
"Mountain River Suppression."
The sword pillar reached the sky, with Oral Heavenly Constitution, combining techniques and Divine Skills, suppressed mountains and rivers beneath this sword, the Six Dragons were shattered, and the Great Sun was pressed to the ground by the sword pillar.
In the overwhelming Qi waves, the Emperor Sword suppressed all Qi, the Emperor's momentum kept ascending.
"Sweep the Six Harmonies."
The sword momentum swept across the Four Seas, under the effect of Divine Skills, the space of the Six Harmonies was completely covered by this sword, a resplendent figure, seemingly drawn by Invisible Power, met this sword.
Shape Tomb·Yang Shaped Sun.
Transforming into the form of the Three-legged Golden Crow, absorbing the Qi of the Great Sun, golden wings slashed empty, the Supreme Yang Power clashed against the sword tip.
"Boom!"
Countless sparks burst forth, force colliding with force, the domineering sword tip clashed with the wings of the Golden Crow, both figures swayed violently like reflections on water. Even the light became distorted due to the power gathered at this moment.
But it wasn't over, the last figure flashed, seemingly forming a twisted character "Dao", traversing the vast sky.
Head with dragon horns, human head and snake body, Fuxi Daoist Body manifested, the last figure's palms parted and came together, Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams descended from the sky.
With divinity controlling everything, under the array formation, the movement of all things accelerated, the Emperor noticed with a start that his own body was also accelerating in decay.
The already limited lifespan, at this moment, was burning like raging fire consuming oil.
Jiang Li had witnessed the Great Venerable accelerating Cosmic Light with an array, and even created his own Dragon and Snake Body that accelerated his application, and now combining them both, externalized the array formation, directly hitting the Emperor's crucial point.
The Emperor's eyes immediately revealed extreme ferocity, like an injured wild wolf, cold and vicious.
"Blood Recommendation Xuan Yuan!"
He uttered the name of the forbidden move almost word by word, the surging Qi Mechanism first burst forth, blasting the array and sending the Golden Crow flying.
Under Jiang Li's compulsion, the Emperor had no choice but to use the Ji Family's life-risking forbidden move, burning Essence Blood to enhance power.
Yet with this move employed, the Emperor was destined to perish.
"Boom!"
The three figures were all shattered, transformed into three streams of light, suddenly merged in mid-air, revealing Jiang Li's figure, Chi You's Flag transformed into a red light that fell from the sky, merging with Jiang Li's figure, in an instant—
Treasure Extreme Cave Heaven was torn apart.
The suppressed space was torn by Chi You's Flag, Jiang Li's body appeared ethereal, as if merging into the crimson light flag, Chi You's Flag swept through the sky, tearing open a pitch-black spatial rift, with All Heaven Divine Sha intertwining with the void, grinding out the sound of millions of Ghosts wailing and Deities howling.
"Control!"
In an instant of lighting, the Emperor spit out a word, and the sword in his hand, though delayed, arrived first. Its trajectory resembled the operation of Heavenly Dao, unstoppable, crossing before Chi You's Flag, as the black and white Gang Sha surged, interweaving with the Emperor Sword.
Silently and without a trace, the Emperor Sword disintegrated, leaving not even powder, turning into a wisp of air.
The Emperor's pupils suddenly contracted into a black dot, his mouth opened and closed, and a layer of space was shaped.
"Worlds apart."
These were the four words he should have said.
Forcefully shaping a layer of space, turning a short distance into worlds apart, at the cost of entirely burning up his lifespan.
"In the end, I didn't die by anyone else's hands, but rather..."
Before the sentence was completed, Chi You's Flag pierced through space, penetrating the Emperor's body.
The shaped layer of space collapsed in the same manner as the Emperor Sword, turning into a wisp of air, slowly dissipating.
"The Taixu Bodyless, even when separated by a layer of space, is of no use."
Jiang Li's figure appeared behind the Emperor, holding Chi You's Flag, and he said calmly, "At the final moment, if you had forsaken your humanity, perhaps there was hope. Only by doing so might you have found a way out."
The Emperor stood quietly, saying, "Then it's better to have died."
He gazed into the sky, as if exhaling his last breath, weakly calling out, "Heaven is unjust, unjust..."
The voice gradually lowered, the Emperor's whole body starting to disintegrate from the chest, the mountains and rivers within his dharma body collapsing, the sun, moon, and stars extinguishing, his muscles and bones turning to dust, and his flesh and blood burning to ashes.
In the end, the once-great Emperor vanished like smoke and clouds.
He was dead.
Only a faint glow was left, slowly dispersing.
"He has died." The Princess witnessed this scene, whispering softly, as if sighing, as if murmuring.
With the Emperor's fall, as his elder sister with the same bloodline, the Princess naturally felt it, and even many in the imperial family should also have felt it.
The True Dragon can be large or small, unseen in life, but upon death, it's like a giant whale falling into the sea, the waves spreading far and wide.
The Earth Uncle, making preparations in the Yin World, suddenly looked up, his old face twisted, transforming into a tiger's head and letting out an angry roar.
"The Emperor has perished... Jiang Li!"
"That young Jiang! To deceive me so!"
With meticulous effort to guard against Jiang Li's forthcoming assault, who would've expected this inherently wicked youth of the Jiang family to play such a trick. Ostensibly targeting the Earth Uncle, but in reality aiming to murder the Emperor.
At this moment, the Earth Uncle suddenly understood, but it was too late. The Emperor was dead, and the Emperor Dao Fruit had fallen into Jiang Li's hands; all was too late.
······
······
The same feeling arose thousands of miles away.
On a high mountain to the south, the Heavenly Monarch felt a sudden premonition, looking towards the Divine Capital, as if he could already see its sights.
"The Emperor has fallen."
"Is it the Great Venerable?"
The Heavenly Monarch first speculated, then slowly shook his head, "Not him. If he had intended to act against the Emperor, the Emperor would have long been dead. So it's Jiang Li then. Truly unexpected..."
Thus, obtaining the Emperor Dao Fruit has become extremely difficult.
After all, the Heavenly Monarch is the least suitable supreme to meet Jiang Li face-to-face.
······
······
Outside the Divine Capital, in the workshop market, the Great Venerable looked at the gradually whitening sky, revealing a slight smile.
"He is finally dead, well done."
He breathed out lightly, his gaze seemingly penetrating space, reflecting the shattered Cave Heaven, also seeing Jiang Li, the Primordial Lord Rain Master, and...
The Great Venerable shook his head, picked up his jug, drinking alone, continuing until dawn.
At this time, more figures appeared on the streets of the workshop, and shouts of "Buns" and "Noodles" gradually arose, growing lively.
After finishing the jug, the Great Venerable leaned against the railing, suddenly pulling out a piece of broken silver, tossing it onto a child's head running below.
The child held his head up, and several playmates also ran over, looking up at the green-clad man above.
The Great Venerable saw this and pointed to the broken silver on the ground, chuckling lightly, "Little one, follow me: Great Zhou rises, Jiang Li reigns."
