Chapter 639: Promoting to a Great Emperor Grade Secret Art!

The entire Endless Void shook violently as a power capable of destroying the world forcibly broke through a certain Restriction.

An indescribably massive finger pierced into the void, descending upon the Canglan Realm at a speed countless times faster than the speed of light.

“God King of the Alien Race!”

Guihai Baijiang, Xuanming, the Buddha, and Ao Yin all paled in horror.

Compared to five years ago, this power was even more immense.

Because this finger was not a phantom but the actual finger of the God King's Physical Body. Five years ago, it was merely three drops of blood, but now he could manifest a whole finger. This showed just how much the Endless Void's Restriction on Him had weakened.

A similar scene occurred once more as the finger pointed toward the Boundary Pass.

Hum!

The Thirty-Six Heavens Starry Universe Grand Array operated frantically. Under the full effort of the four Supreme Experts, it released its total power.

However, with a crisp crack, the entire array failed to hold for even a single moment, shattering into countless pieces like a mirror.

Bang!

The four Supreme Experts suffered a backlash. Last time they merely spat out blood, but this time their Physical Bodies directly exploded into a bloody mist, and their Souls were severely damaged.

Ao Yin's Soul was even shattered, returning him to a remnant Soul state, weakened to the extreme.

Whoosh!

With no more obstacles, the God King's finger fell directly toward the Canglan Realm.

Countless living beings were crushed by the pressure, unable to stand straight, awaiting death in terror.

Mountains crumbled, the earth split, the heavens wept, and tsunamis roared. Space shattered and the world shook; it was a scene of total doomsday.

“Sigh~”

Just as the Canglan Realm was about to collapse, a sigh echoed between heaven and earth.

An invisible force arose from nowhere, rippling like water and permeating the entire world. The pressure of a true Great Emperor surged majestically.

The shattered Peaks were restored to their original state, the cracked earth closed back up, and the raging waves became calm and tranquil.

“What year is it now?”

“The Ancestor of the Foreign Race has not been destroyed, yet another God King has emerged?”

A middle-aged man appeared, wearing a black-gold dragon robe and a Ping Tian Crown.

He seemed to have slept in the long river of time for too long, only now reappearing in the world.

A supreme and majestic aura rippled around Him; a single wisp of it could crush a world and shatter the void.

That was the Emperor's Might that only a Great Emperor could possess.

“Black Emperor?”

The God King's finger was imprisoned, and an uncertain, questioning sound rang out.

“Go back to wherever you came from!”

The man in the black-gold dragon robe looked at the finger. With a wave of his hand, the moon star and sun star rotated rapidly. Yin and Yang harmonized, and the ten thousand Daos chimed together, forcing the God King's finger back to the edge of the Endless Void.

Only true Emperor's Might could contend with a God King.

“A mere remnant Soul, why bother persisting!”

The God King's voice vibrated through the void. Before the finger was completely forced out of the void, a beam of light tore through the darkness and pierced the world.

Bang!

A hole was shot through the abdomen of the man in the black-gold dragon robe, and cracks spread across his entire body centered on that hole.

“My remnant Soul is about to vanish; this is the only thing I can do…”

Ignoring the rapidly spreading cracks, the Black Emperor raised his hand. The Yin and Yang stars rotated, releasing the power of the ten thousand Daos to sweep across the entire Endless Void.

The countless foreign race members originally scattered in every corner of the void were all reduced to ashes silently, leaving not a single trace behind.

The edge of the Endless Void was shrouded in Dao power. The Restrictions originally targeting the God King had loosened, but they were now reinforced once more, making it impossible for him to break through easily.

“The heavenly dao fortune has already shattered and can block my perception. It seems they are in that special Realm; there is still hope for this world…”

The Black Emperor's gaze swept across the Canglan Realm, finally resting on Hundred Swords Mountain.

That place was blocked by layers of Restrictions. In His current remnant Soul state, He could not perceive exactly who was inside.

Whoosh~

A light breeze brushed past, and the Black Emperor's remnant Soul turned into ashes and scattered with the wind.

This ancient Great Emperor, who existed only in legends and whom almost no one in the current world remembered, vanished as quickly as he had appeared.

From then on, no trace of the Black Emperor remained in the world.

The Canglan Realm returned to tranquility.

Countless living beings had survived a disaster once again.

“Was that the legendary Great Emperor just now?”

“Perhaps it was a sliver of power left in the world by a Great Emperor.”

“He saved us, He saved the Canglan Realm!”

“The Great Emperor protects future generations; His deeds should be praised!”

Countless beings in the Canglan Realm shouted, weeping with gratitude.

Facing a God King, all living beings were in despair. That kind of despair could not be overcome by an individual's strong will; the pressure came from the Soul level, making resistance impossible.

The aura of despair had shrouded every living being, making them lose the heart to resist, nearly causing their wills to collapse and their heart meridians to be permanently damaged.

The Great Emperor had rescued them from the abyss of despair, naturally earning the immense gratitude of countless beings.

“The Great Emperors indeed left behind hidden measures!”

“There is still hope!”

Guihai Baijiang, Xuanming, the Buddha, and Ao Yin, the four Supreme Experts, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Even as Supreme Experts, they were unable to detect where the former Great Emperors had left their power.

Only when this world encountered a massive threat and was about to be destroyed would the power left by the Great Emperors be triggered, allowing them to briefly reappear in the world.

However, the residual power of a Great Emperor was not the Great Emperor's actual body after all. It could resist a God King once or twice, but it could not solve the problem at its root.

All the residual power of the Great Emperor could do was buy a little more time for the Canglan Realm.

Only if Li Xuanfeng and Lian Yuezhou broke through to that Realm could the crisis of the Canglan Realm be completely resolved.

But where the two were now and when they could break through was all unknown.

The Thirty-Six Heavens Starry Universe Grand Array was completely shattered, and the Physical Bodies of the four Supreme Experts were destroyed, leaving only their Soul states. Ao Yin had even become a remnant Soul. Next time the God King arrived, they wouldn't even have the qualification to be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

The main Peak of Hundred Swords Mountain.

Inside the independent space.

Li Xuanfeng and Lian Yuezhou were still immersed in cultivation, unmoved by external things.

The System's function to observe changes in fate colors was still active, so Li Xuanfeng was not worried about the Canglan Realm being destroyed.

The System stood above the heavenly dao fortune; even the power of the God King could not interfere with it.

Li Xuanfeng knew that his and his Master's cultivation could not be interrupted, let alone stopped. Completing the Breakthrough in one go was the only way to resolve the crisis.

Although the former Great Emperors had fallen, they still had a sliver of power remaining. Before the world's destruction, they would reappear due to the stimulation of the God King's power. By utilizing the power of the moon star and sun star, they could briefly resist the God King.

The existence of the Great Emperors' residual power bought time for Li Xuanfeng and Lian Yuezhou; otherwise, their cultivation would have been interrupted by the God King long ago.

“Feng… Fenger, slow down!”

“Master has already… sensed that… Realm!”

Lian Yuezhou's jade-like hands gripped Li Xuanfeng's back tightly. She used all her strength to suppress her instinctive moans and barely managed to speak two complete sentences.

Li Xuanfeng was so vigorous that she could hardly withstand him.

As a Body Cultivator whose Physical Body was strong enough to shake the Universe and starry rivers, combined with Dual Cultivation techniques practiced to the extreme, only Lian Yuezhou in the entire Canglan Realm could barely endure Li Xuanfeng's impact.

Amidst the extreme pleasure, flashes of insight regarding the Dao of Dual Cultivation frequently burst into her mind.

Fifteen years had passed, and Lian Yuezhou finally saw the dawn of stepping into the Great Emperor Realm.

[Ding! Lian Yuezhou has gained new insights into the Dao of Dual Cultivation. Hundredfold return triggered. You have obtained a massive amount of insights into the Dao of Dual Cultivation!]

Li Xuanfeng's movements of thrusting into his Master did not stop at all. The System prompt sounded in his mind, and countless flashes of insight burst forth.

The flashes of light flickered and the insights took shape. The Yin-Yang Profound Refining Technique finally promoted to a Great Emperor Grade Secret Art. Li Xuanfeng saw the path leading directly to the Great Emperor level. With clear understanding in his heart, his power flow patterns changed, and his rhythm and speed shifted unconsciously.

“Ah~”

Lian Yuezhou, who had been trying her best to suppress her instincts, could no longer control herself. Her whole body trembled as she reached the Peak.
