With a resonating hum, a silver fist streaked across the heavens, its dazzling radiance akin to a burning sun. The fist carried the weight of a galaxy, every strand of its power heavy enough to suppress the void itself.
The fist collided with the Emperor’s hand, generating an unimaginable shockwave that shook the heavens and earth. The collision’s destructive force threatened to obliterate the Eastern Wilderness entirely.
Just before the shockwave could erupt, the All Heaven Mirror glowed with a mysterious light, enveloping the region in protective energy and swallowing the unleashed might of the clash. This saved the Eastern Wilderness from annihilation, sparing countless lives.
“Who dares?” A cold, emotionless voice echoed from the distant horizon, carrying an oppressive authority that struck fear into the hearts of all who heard it. The voice radiated a divine presence, commanding involuntary reverence.
“Your father!” Jiang Chen stepped forth from Banished Immortal Peak, his aura surging like a divine tempest.
The presence of the Great Completion Primordial Dao Body shook the heavens, its power undeniable, rivaling that of the Emperor’s.
The revelation left the representatives of the Ancient Imperial Clans and Ye Changhe stunned. Their pupils contracted sharply, and even the ever-arrogant Jin Yuan faltered, regret flashing across his face.
“So, the Great Completion Primordial Dao Body belongs to the Primordial Holy Land!” Jin Yuan muttered, realizing the gravity of the situation.
Seeing the manifestation of this legendary body, Yao Ye’s heart settled. His earlier doubts dissipated as he looked toward the Grand Elder with a mocking smile. “Grand Elder, do you still believe the Primordial Holy Land will fall? Do you still think the Ancient Imperial Clan is superior?”
The Grand Elder’s face stiffened, his regret bubbling beneath his outward composure. If he had known this earlier, he would have chosen to align with Yao Ye and the Primordial Holy Land.
Despite his inner turmoil, he responded coldly, “What of the Great Completion Primordial Dao Body? It faces an Emperor—an Emperor who reigns supreme across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!”
“Have you ever heard of a Great Completion body defeating an Emperor? Even with its presence, the Primordial Holy Land’s fate is sealed!” His words reignited the shaken confidence of others.
“That’s true. What is a Great Completion body before an Emperor?” Ye Changhe remarked, regaining his composure. “It’s surprising to see such a powerful body here, but it cannot challenge an Emperor’s supremacy.”
Jin Yuan’s panic faded as well. He sneered, his voice tinged with malice. “So this is the Great Completion Primordial Dao Body that dared to confront the True Dragon Clan! It turns out the Primordial Holy Land was the mastermind.” Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novel[f]ire.net
“Don’t think you can act recklessly with that body’s support! Your arrogance will lead to your downfall!”
“Shut your mouth, you feathered pest!” The Pure Yang Holy Master finally snapped, glaring at Jin Yuan with undisguised disdain.
“Whether or not the Grand Completion body can defeat an Emperor, it can certainly wipe out your Golden-Winged Roc Clan with ease! If you don’t want to be eradicated, keep your beak shut!”
Jin Yuan’s arrogance crumbled under the Pure Yang Holy Master’s scorn, his bluster failing to mask the rising dread in his heart.
Jin Yuan sneered, his mocking tone sharp. “The Great Completion Body doesn’t belong to the Pure Yang Holy Land, so why are you so eager to defend it?”
“Because it’s different!” the Pure Yang Holy Master retorted with disdain. “Our relationship with the Primordial Holy Land is one of brotherhood. We can rally the Great Completion Body to act, but can your flock of feathered pests do the same?”
Though Jin Yuan tried to diminish the Pure Yang Holy Land, the reality was clear—connections mattered, and the Golden-Winged Roc Clan lacked the ability to leverage such a force.
At that moment, a cold and emotionless voice echoed from the direction of the Primordial Battleground. “Out of consideration for your cultivation, kneel and leave now. Otherwise, do not blame this Emperor for being merciless.”
The oppressive authority swept across the heavens, sending shockwaves through the hearts of all present. Such dominance could only belong to an Emperor, someone daring enough to command even the Grand Completion Body to kneel.
“Emperor?” Jiang Chen’s voice cut through the tension, icy and disdainful. “Do not make me laugh. You dare call yourself an Emperor? You are but a rat lingering in the shadows, surviving by severing your Dao!”
His piercing words resounded, silencing the heavens. “And you think you can make me kneel? Come out, rat!”
The crowd was stunned. To speak to an Emperor in such a way—only the Great Completion Body could do so with such audacity. After all, its power was enough to stand on equal footing.
With a flash, the All Heaven Mirror illuminated the skies, while the Heaven Execution Gauntlets surged with unparalleled power. Two Emperor Weapons burst into action, their terrifying might shaking the heavens and earth. Jiang Chen, carrying their boundless energy, charged headlong into the Primordial Battleground.
The Primordial Battleground, shrouded in murderous intent for eons and feared as a forbidden zone, trembled under Jiang Chen’s assault.
“How dare you!” the voice of the Ye Family Emperor roared, accompanied by the deafening hum of the Great Dao. Once more, a massive arm extended, its radiant presence filled with fury.
“Why wouldn’t I dare?” Jiang Chen replied coldly, his words laced with mockery. “If you were a Perfected Emperor, I’d retreat three steps. But you? A rat clinging to life dares flaunt imperial dignity?”
A colossal fist, blazing like a meteor, ripped through the void, carrying the full power of the Grand Completion Body. It collided with the Emperor’s hand, shaking the Primordial Battleground. Ancient restrictions shattered, and cracks spread across the once unyielding land.
The clash reverberated through the heavens. The flawless arm of the Ye Family Emperor, pristine as jade, began to crack. With an explosive burst, it disintegrated, releasing blood that painted the sky.
The spectators were in awe, their minds racing.
“An Emperor has been injured!”
“Can the Great Completion Body truly contend with an Emperor? This is unimaginable!”
“Wait! Perhaps this isn’t a true Emperor. A Perfected Emperor wouldn’t fall into such a state. This must be an Ancient Emperor, a once-Emperor whose realm has declined!”
The realization rippled through the crowd.
“Even so, this is incredible! Few would dare provoke such a figure!”
“That’s true! This Great Completion Primordial Dao Body is terrifying. First, it cowed the True Dragon Emperor, and now it injures the Ye Family Emperor. Truly a modern legend!”
The observers couldn’t hide their awe, many trembling at the sheer audacity of Jiang Chen’s actions. To challenge the prestige of an Emperor, even one whose realm had declined, was a feat few would dare to attempt.
Despite the Emperor’s diminished state, his laws remained unparalleled, beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators. Only someone of the Grand Completion Body’s caliber, bolstered by two Emperor Weapons, could stand unflinchingly against such a foe.
“This explains the Primordial Holy Land’s confidence,” one observer murmured. “No wonder they’ve never feared any faction. With the Grand Completion Body at their side, they only need worry about a true Emperor descending.”
The crowd finally understood the Primordial Holy Land’s arrogance. Their unparalleled trump card, the Grand Completion Body, could fend off nearly any threat, leaving only the rare and elusive true Emperors as their match.
