Chapter 1380 (Raw 1371): Emperor's Road Competition Part 3

The aura coming from the pitch-black spatial tears applied heavy pressure on everyone.

Everyone within several million kilometers of Meteor Trail City felt like a mountain pressed down on their backs. They did not even dare to move at all. Even Xiao Chen and Di Wuque, who were ascending their Emperor's Roads, felt some pressure.

However, these two were too busy to be distracted. Their Great Tribulations of wind and fire were intensifying in ferocity.

Di Wuque glanced around quickly and saw that Xiao Chen had taken only a few steps. Hence, he relaxed slightly. However, when he raised his head to look at his nine-colored Emperor's Road, he, who was almost at one thousand steps, immediately felt some despair.

Of the nine thousand steps, Di Wuque had walked only about ten percent of them. Even so, he was already this injured.

Can this Emperor's Road, said to be of the highest grade in legends, be walked to the end?

No, I cannot have a despairing heart. I must walk this Emperor's Road to the end. This is my, Di Wuque's, last chance. Di Wuque's despair lingered for only a moment before vanishing without a trace.

His gaze turned determined once more. However, his perseverance and desire were not as strong as Xiao Chen's.

Xiao Chen only just started on the ten thousand bloody steps, a road filled with many uncertain variables. He did not even know what would happen after he reached the end of this road. However, his mental state was much better than Di Wuque's.

Xiao Chen did not have any distracting thoughts. He only had one aim: to finish walking this bloody path.

It did not matter whether he attained the Dao or became a demon.

Due to that mysterious energy, Ying Zongtian and the other Primes on the Supreme Sky Sect's side gathered together. They all showed extremely grave expressions on their faces.

"Is that an aura that surpasses a Prime?" Ying Zongtian asked uncertainly.

The Spirit Fox King frowned and said, "The Kunlun Realm absolutely cannot have any existences surpassing Prime. It is absolutely impossible. What is this?!"

That was right. While the Thunder Sovereign was very strong, he did not surpass Prime, either.

Whether there was a peak after Prime was still in question. However, the Kunlun Realm would not have existences exceeding Prime. Perhaps it would be better to say that once one surpassed Prime, one could not remain in the Kunlun Realm. This was certain.

The Myriad-Law Fiend Master's normally calm face appeared rather grave at this moment. He said with a soft sigh, "What if the existence in there is originally not from the Kunlun Realm?"

These words startled everyone to their senses. The other Primes suddenly recalled that the Deity Race was not native to the Kunlun Realm in the first place. They came from another mysterious realm. However, hundreds of thousands of years had passed. The first generation of the Deity Race was already dead. Could it be that there were still survivors from the first generation of the Deity Race?

"Xiu!"

Suddenly, a gaze came from the tear. The four Primes noticed it at the same time and looked in the direction of that gaze.

They vaguely made out a small world within that twisted pitch-black tear where a stern Deity Race old man wearing a crown sat on a golden throne.

That gaze contained an extremely ancient aura. Just one glance would convince one that the old man on the throne was definitely an existence on the level of a living relic.

Although this aura was strong, the four Primes could not sense any lifeforce from this Deity Race old man; it was as if this person was between life and death.

Just as the doubt appeared in the four Primes' minds, they saw the old man on the throne wave the divine halberd in his hand.

"Move away!"

The four Primes felt an extreme danger at the same time. Their figures flashed, moving millions of kilometers. They charged towards the sky, wanting to fly into the Starry Heavens.

Since these four advanced to Prime, they had never sensed anything this dangerous before. This was simply unbelievable.

As for how the Primes moved, others could not even make out the trajectory before the four Primes reached the sky.

"Pa!"

However, a huge golden palm slammed down from the Starry Heavens. The four Primes each vomited a mouthful of blood, forcefully smashed down.

Such a scene was very shocking.

Four Primes smashed down at the same time. No one would be able to imagine such a scene.

Both the Heaven Punishing Corpse God and the East Mountain Ghost Monarch were stunned. Primes were practically synonymous with being unrivaled in the Kunlun Realm. However, four Primes were sent flying at the same time, severely injured.

Was this the trump card of the Deity Race? This was simply too horrifying.

"Xiu!"

Suddenly, many bolts of black lightning appeared everywhere for five thousand kilometers around. Thunder roared furiously in unison as the black lightning bolts struck at the Deity Race old man in the tear.

The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign's expression changed slightly. Apparently, he had anticipated this and quickly stopped the summoning. The tear soon closed and mended.

However, before the tear closed, several bolts of black lightning charged in.

This was the Heavenly Retribution from the Heavenly Dao. The Kunlun Realm absolutely did not permit existences beyond Prime.

"Pu ci! Pu ci!" Several bloody holes appeared in the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign's body. Blood spurted out like fountains, and his complexion paled.

"Brother Xing Tian, quickly. Ying Zongtian and the other three Primes are already severely injured. As long as one of you attack now, it will be enough to stop them. Don't give them a chance to retaliate!" The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign spoke quickly and anxiously as he pressed on his acupoints. Clearly, he also paid a heavy price.

When the Heaven Punishing Corpse God heard that anxious tone, he ignored the doubts in his heart and pushed off with his feet, chasing after the four Primes that went flying.

"Brother Qitian, attack one more time and directly break that Xiao Chen's Emperor's Road!" the East Mountain Ghost Monarch suggested after seeing the strength of that Deity Race's old man.

The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign shook his head and said, "That is the body of my Deity Race's ancestor. After receiving energy from billions of faithful believers, we barely managed to keep a strand of his soul alive. His strength surpasses Prime, which the Heavenly Dao does not permit. I cannot endure the lightning of a second Heavenly Retribution."

Only now did the East Mountain Ghost Monarch notice the extent of the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign's injuries. He asked, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine. All Deity Dao Union members, heed my orders. Attack with all your might. Destroy Xiao Chen while he is on the Emperor's Road."

After this order, all of the Deity Dao Union members, who had stopped attacking ferociously, launched themselves over once more, swarming towards Xiao Chen's bloody Emperor's Road.

Immediately, the sky was densely packed with figures. All of the Deity Dao Union's cultivators, regardless of their cultivation, charged over.

"Stop!"

Although the four Primes on the Supreme Sky Sect's side were not there, the thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea and the Heavenly Starry Ocean's various Holy Masters were still there. When they saw this scene, they immediately flew above the Emperor's Gate and blocked the flood of cultivators.

Mo Chen, Yue Bingyun, An Junxi, Xiao Bai, and the others all soared into the air as well, joining the group blocking the Deity Dao Union.

A scene of Martial Emperors falling under the five hundred thousand kilometers of blood clouds appeared, turning into a vast chaotic battle.

Indeed, it was a chaotic battle. With the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign's order, all the Deity Dao Union's cultivators of various cultivations joined the battle. The Supreme Sky Sect's side was swarmed with so many people, resulting in uncontrollable chaos.

On the other side, under the nine-colored clouds, the three Holy Masters each guarded a direction, ensuring that no one interfered with Di Wuque's Great Tribulation of wind and fire.

When Di Wuque saw this scene from the Emperor's Road, his confidence strengthened. His cultivation even seemed to be about to make a breakthrough.

On the bloody road, Xiao Chen was in a very sorry state. He not only had to face the various wind tribulations of the bloody road but also needed to dodge the attacks of the Deity Dao Union's cultivators.

Every step Xiao Chen took was extremely laborious. Even so, he still plodded on without any signs of dismay.

The blood rain fell once again. However, this time, the blood rain was a true rain of blood.

Along with the blood rain were countless corpses, falling on both sides of the bloody road. There were corpses from both the Deity Dao Union and the Supreme Sky Sect. This was an extremely miserable chaotic battle.

Away in the distance, the Heaven Punishing Corpse God fought against four. Indeed, it was as the Heaven Punishing Corpse God said; the Heaven Punishing Corpse God held the upper hand.

The Heaven Punishing Corpse God fought quite delightedly, laughing maniacally without stopping as he completely suppressed the four Primes. Ying Zongtian and the other three Primes felt extremely sullen. The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign caused their Hearts of an Emperor to crack, injuring them severely.

Under the blood clouds, the fighting was very intense. Although the Supreme Sky Sect had fewer people and did not have any Prime, there were the thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea and the Heavenly Starry Ocean's many Holy Masters. Hence, they managed to maintain a balance, although just barely. They did not let the defense line crumble; thus, most of the attacks overshot the bloody Emperor's Road.

However, this balance would soon be broken, as the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign and the East Mountain Ghost Monarch were about to take action.

After seeing corpses continuously fall from the sky and Life Essence scattering as a result of Martial Emperors dying, the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign sighed endlessly. He said softly, "East Mountain Ghost Monarch, make your move. It's time to end all this."

"Scarlet Firmament Space Sword!"

"Coiling Monarch Time Saber!"

Just at this critical moment, one saber and one sword flew over from the distant sky. The two weapons tore through the clouds. As they flew, they pierced through countless corpses of the Deity Dao Union's cultivators, heading towards the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign.

"The Saber Sword Two Sovereigns!"

The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign's expression turned stern. He was startled. Facing two Transcendent Divine Weapons at the same time in his current situation would not be good. The East Mountain Ghost Monarch needed to make a move to help.

However, would the East Mountain Ghost Monarch help?

Even though the two were on the same side, the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign did not feel confident. After all, his fall would present the East Mountain Ghost Monarch with a rare opportunity.
