Billions of sword rays shone with extreme brilliance, each carrying terrifying destructive power. Even a Saint-grade perfected expert would stand no chance against the Annihilation Cross Sword Formation.
Clang! Clang! Clang!!!
The sound of metal clashing rang out as the sword rays struck Long Yuan's azure dragon scales. In mere moments, the ocean-like sword light completely submerged Long Yuan.
Golden Saint Elder felt his scalp tingle. With his early-stage Demon Emperor cultivation, even if he could block this notoriously lethal sword formation, he would likely suffer serious injuries!
Yet at the center of the formation, Long Yuan remained motionless. He didn't employ any defensive measures because the sword rays striking his body produced a pleasantly tingling sensation—extremely comfortable! Just like receiving a massage in his previous life.
"The intensity is too weak though. It'd be better if it were stronger!" Long Yuan murmured to himself. His physical body had already reached the perfected Immortal Realm. Only the destructive power of a Divine-grade formation might satisfy him now!
Outside the formation, everyone's expressions brightened as they sensed the aura within weakening.
"Everyone, attack now!" Iron Fist Saint roared, his energy erupting violently like a raging river as it poured into the imperial artifact "Cangming Blade" wielded by Elder Wu Chen.
Simultaneously, Elder Wu Chen and several other Saint-grade elders from the Divine Fist Sect also unleashed their full power, channeling it into the imperial artifact.
The imperial artifact "Cangming Blade" erupted with dazzling crimson radiance under the tremendous energy, illuminating heaven and earth. Sword energy permeated the air as space itself shattered around it, collapsing into complete darkness.
The terrifying aura spread, enveloping the entire Dragon Region where Heavenly Dragon Abyss was located. It felt as though a supreme Martial Emperor had descended, making all warriors in Long Yuan tremble with fear.
"This power seems to originate from Heavenly Dragon Abyss! What's happening there?" Experts from various factions gazed toward the abyss but dared not approach. They knew full well that whatever was occurring there far exceeded their level of involvement.
As the Divine Fist Sect activated their imperial artifact's power, the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, Desolate God Pavilion, and Heavenly Dragon Abyss all unleashed their own imperial weapons' might simultaneously.
For a moment, horrifying auras intertwined, instantly transforming Heavenly Dragon Abyss into a land of unparalleled danger.
"Kill! Today this old man shall slay an emperor!" Iron Fist Saint shouted excitedly as the Divine Fist Sect's imperial artifact "Cangming Blade" came slashing down.
Crimson light blossomed as a ten-thousand-foot blade radiance erupted with extreme brilliance, cutting through space like tofu as it descended with overwhelming force.
The enormous blade light struck precisely where all the sword rays of the Annihilation Cross Sword Formation converged, producing an earth-shaking explosion. The tremendous energy instantly obliterated the gathered sword light before landing squarely on Long Yuan's head.
The Divine Fist Sect members rejoiced—their target hadn't even attempted to dodge!
"Hahaha! He must have been severely wounded by the Annihilation Cross Sword Formation!"
"It seems the Chu family's Demon Emperor's power weakens significantly during the full moon!" Elder Wu Chen sneered.
Fellow Daoist Jiao Yun's death had truly been worthwhile! Otherwise, slaying an emperor wouldn't have been this easy!
Then the "Void Sword" controlled by the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, the "Heavenly Stele" wielded by the Desolate God Pavilion, and other factions' imperial weapons all unleashed their full power toward the center now engulfed by vast energy.
The entire Dragon Region quaked violently from the simultaneous activation of multiple imperial weapons—their combined might was truly extraordinary.
"Golden Saint Elder, why aren't you attacking yet?" Iron Fist Saint asked with a pale face, watching the Heavenly Dragon Abyss experts still gathering their power. Activating the imperial weapon had nearly drained him completely, though its terrifying power left him quite satisfied.
"No hurry, no hurry! The longer we prepare, the greater the power—enough for a certain kill!" Golden Saint Elder replied with a smile.
Just then, a draconic cry suddenly exploded in everyone's ears as a majestic dragon surged upward from the sea of energy. His scales shimmered with serene blue light while his mane and horns blazed with crimson flames—the very picture of domineering majesty!
"Finished playing? My turn now?" Long Yuan looked down contemptuously at the crowd. That series of attacks had left him thoroughly relaxed!
"What? You're completely unharmed?" All the Saint-grade experts' hair stood on end seeing not a single wound on their target.
How could this be? Hadn't his aura been weakening earlier? What was happening?
In an instant, everyone felt true terror.
"Everyone stay calm! We still have Emperor-grade talismans—our real trump cards!" Elder Gongpu from the Desolate God Pavilion shouted with bloodshot eyes. Their talismans contained attacks equivalent to a perfected Emperor-grade expert!
"Exactly! He withstood our imperial weapons because we couldn't unleash their full power. But Emperor-grade talismans are different—just a sliver of energy to activate them releases perfected Emperor-grade attacks!"
"With his power weakened during the full moon, he definitely can't withstand them!" Iron Fist Saint roared, immediately producing the Emperor-grade talismans bestowed by Hell's Gate.
"Excellent items! Perfect for the Chu family's reserves!" Long Yuan smiled. Since he couldn't be bothered to make them himself, why not take these gifts delivered to his doorstep?
His Divine Demon mid-stage spiritual sense expanded, instantly snatching all the Emperor-grade talismans from their hands with invisible force.
Everyone stared blankly at their empty palms. Their ultimate trump cards—gone!
"Where are the talismans? My talismans?"
"Disaster! The Chu family's Demon Emperor took them!"
Looking up, their faces turned deathly pale. Dozens of talismans now floated neatly before their enemy before being casually stored away.
"It's over... completely over!"
"Ah! Golden Saint Elder, attack now!" Elder Gongpu urgently shouted. Only by having Heavenly Dragon Abyss's Saint-grade experts unleash their imperial weapons could they hope to escape alive.
"Very well, I'll attack now!" Golden Saint Elder laughed heartily as a Demon Emperor's aura erupted instantly. Imperial might filled the skies, pressing down on the entire Dragon Region.
Every living being in the Dragon Region truly felt a supreme Martial Emperor's descent at this moment—the terrifying aura left everyone breathless!
The imperial artifact "Sky Piercer Spear" in Golden Saint Elder's hands erupted with pitch-black radiance as its full power was unleashed. Terrifying energy reverberated through the air, horrifying beyond measure! ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novel⁂fire.net
"Emperor-grade? You...you're actually a Demon Emperor?" Everyone paled in shock. How was this possible? How could Golden Saint Elder have broken through to Demon Emperor?
"Die!" Golden Saint Elder smiled without answering, swinging his imperial artifact. Pitch-black light swept across the battlefield.
The Divine Fist Sect's Martial Saints standing closest were the first casualties—annihilated instantly into nothingness under the imperial weapon's radiance!
