Chapter 2194: Come Out Quickly

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

The Tian Mo Zhu pierced the sky, radiating dark light and shrouded in demonic mist. Waves of demonic energy surged, accompanied by a thunderous hum and chaotic demonic sounds that disturbed the minds of all living beings.

Cultivators from the various heavens gathered around the Tian Mo Zhu as the center, filling the four directions of the sky and covering the eight regions of the earth, like a black curtain blotting out the last trace of light in the world.

"This is too big." Many people looked up at the Tian Mo Zhu in awe, swallowing hard. This was their first time being so close during a Tian Mo invasion, and only now did they realize how insignificant they were. In the face of this towering demonic pillar, everyone was like a grain of sand.

"If it were swung, no one could block it!"

"It's hard to imagine that something like this Tian Mo Zhu was once shattered by the Sacred Body's head." More people murmured, their hearts trembling with reverence for Ye Chen. The Huang Gu Sheng Ti was fiercely resolute; even with only a remnant body left, he dared to collide head-on with the towering Tian Mo Zhu.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Amidst the crowd's shock, the Tian Mo Zhu hummed again, surging with violent power. Layers of annihilating halos spread out one after another, repeatedly shattering space, which would then heal, only to collapse again. The entire world shook unstably because of it.

The cultivators from the various heavens retreated again and again, with over a dozen emperor weapons suspended in the air, their supreme divine might cascading down to form protective barriers that shielded the heavenly cultivators.

Those layers of halos were filled with destructive force. Not to mention Great Saints, even Zhun Di-level experts dared not approach recklessly—minor injuries would cause their bodies to explode, while severe ones would scatter their souls.

"Such powerful fluctuations—is this an emperor-level battle?" Xuanwu Huang murmured in a daze, staring at the Tian Mo Zhu. As a peak Zhun Di, even he couldn't help but feel his soul tremble.

The peak-level Zhun Di all understood clearly that such massive disturbances must indicate an emperor-level conflict. Only emperor-level powerhouses could exert this kind of terrifying pressure. In other words, there was a Tian Mo emperor inside the Tian Mo Zhu, and Ye Chen was fighting it.

"Which era does this Tian Mo Zhu belong to?" The eyes of the various emperor's descendants flickered, their inherited memories containing no secrets about the Ling Yu, so they were unaware of its mysteries.

"There's one thing I can't figure out. I heard that the Sacred Body once slaughtered an emperor's body in the Ling Yu back then. So why didn't the Tian Mo emperor in the Tian Mo Zhu come out to help at that time? One Tian Mo emperor's body plus another Tian Mo emperor would have been enough to destroy Ye Chen."

"Who knows? Tian Mo never play by the rules."

"I'm wondering if the Tian Mo emperor that invaded Da Chu in the past, or the Can Ye Mo emperor that attacked from the Bing Yu eight years ago, knew about the Tian Mo Zhu and the emperor's body in the Ling Yu."

"You're stating the obvious. Maybe they knew, maybe they didn't."

The people were puzzled and bewildered. Things like the past Tian Mo emperor's body or the current Tian Mo Zhu had come so unexpectedly, bringing disasters across the myriad realms.

"Emperor Zun, is that you?" Tian Jiu murmured, staring intently at the Tian Mo Zhu. Emperor Zun's artifact had come to the Ling Yu on its own and forcefully broken through the Zhai Xian Tian Di array—it must have been summoned by someone.

"Are you sure the Zhu Xian Jian is here too?" Yue Huang glanced sideways at Xi Chen.

"It's definitely it," the Son of the Plane nodded firmly. "The Zhu Xian Jian arrived first, and the Xian Wu Di Jian followed right after."

At the mention of the Zhu Xian Jian, the expressions of the various Zhun Di grew even more grave. That damned Zhu Xian Jian was too powerful and too sinister, having caused countless bloodbaths throughout endless ages.

"Ye Chen, come out quickly." Donghuang Tai Xin called out through divine sense more than once.

"Ye Chen, come out quickly." The Zhun Di of Da Chu were also calling. The Tian Mo had not only an emperor but also the Zhu Xian Jian—this lineup was too strong. Fighting alone was unwise when there were many peak Zhun Di here, along with emperor weapons to aid.

Unfortunately, their divine senses were wiped out by the annihilating halos before they could reach the Tian Mo Zhu.

The Tian Mo Zhu was too strange, like a separate barrier isolating it from the world. No transmissions, words, or divine senses could get through.

"Come out!" Chu Xuan's body was tense, her jade hands clenched white.

The other women were much the same, their pale faces bloodless, their voices trembling. Ye Ling was the most afraid, her eyes filled with tears and her body shaking uncontrollably. But their calls, too, were destined not to reach the Tian Mo Zhu.

"If you can gang up, never fight alone—what's the point of playing the hero?"

"If you don't come out, we'll go after your wives!"

People like Xie Yun, Xiong Er, Xiao Yuan Huang, and Kui Niu were shouting again, their voices as loud as ever. At a glance, they were jumping around, cursing and yelling. If the situation weren't so serious, they would probably have already teamed up to flirt with Ye Chen's wives—this was something they did every so often.

Boom! Bang! Boom!

The rumbling continued, not only from the Tian Mo Zhu but also from the void. In the emperor-level subspace, the female Sheng Ti and Sheng Zun were still battling, staining the universe with blood.

It was undeniable that this was a profound irony.

A female Sheng Ti, infinitely close to great accomplishment, was actually siding with the Tian Mo, tarnishing the glory of the Sheng Ti. Meanwhile, a minor Sheng Ti at the Great Saint level was fighting the Tian Mo alone. Since entering the Tian Mo Zhu, he had no intention of coming out alive—not just for the fallen heroic spirits, but also for the legacy of past Sheng Ti generations. Their honor was something that later Sheng Ti would fight to the death to reclaim.

In such a situation, the people sighed.

This era was truly extraordinary, with three Huang Gu Sheng Ti: one at Great Saint level, one at peak Zhun Di, and one at Zhun Di perfection. Two male Sheng Ti and one female Sheng Ti—this level of prosperity had never been seen in the history of the various heavens.

If they could all reach great accomplishment, it would be like having three great emperors. With them guarding the various heavens, what would there be to fear from the Hong Huang clans or the Tian Mo Yu?

Alas, things didn't go as wished. Of these three Sheng Ti, one was against all living beings, one was fighting to the death in the Tian Mo Zhu, and as for the great accomplishment Sheng Ti, Di Huang, he could never return to the various heavens.

Boom!

Suddenly, a thunderous boom echoed through the nine heavens, and a massive hole tore open in the azure sky.

Then, a blood-drenched figure fell out from the hole—it was Sheng Zun, his entire body covered in bloody bones, a picture of utter misery.

Upon returning to the Ling Yu and seeing the heavenly forces, Sheng Zun couldn't catch his breath and spat out blood on the spot. Damn it, when had the Zhai Xian Tian Di array been broken, and when had the heavenly reinforcements arrived? If he'd known help was already here, why fight at all? He had nearly been wiped out.

Soon after, the female Sheng Ti also emerged from the subspace. Compared to Sheng Zun, she was in much better shape. As a Sheng Ti, she was unbeatable at the same level, and Sheng Zun was no match.

"Suppress her." The Son of the Plane snorted coldly and was the first to attack, his rage boiling over. If not for this female Sheng Ti's interference, the Ling Yu wouldn't have been so devastated.

No need for him to say it—the peak Zhun Di on site had already activated their emperor weapons. The moment the female Sheng Ti appeared, she was surrounded, her figure staggering under the pressure of the crowd's emperor artifacts.

What followed was easy to imagine. Though the female Sheng Ti was powerful and unbeatable in single combat, she couldn't withstand the assault of so many Zhun Di. In an instant, she was suppressed.

Seeing this, the heavenly talents stopped their cursing and gathered around.

Many old-timers also formed groups, surrounding the female Sheng Ti in layers inside and out, stroking their beards as they scrutinized her with curious eyes.

"I've only seen male Sheng Ti before—this is my first time seeing a female one." Xiao Yuan Huang rubbed his chin and circled around the female Sheng Ti, his fiery eyes gleaming.

"This woman is really beautiful."

"Get her in bed, and she'd be full of energy. I like that."

"Da Chu specialties—care to learn more?"

The talents chattered away, treating her like a spectacle as they crowded around her. A few even thought about stripping her clothes to study her closely.

This was the only one of its kind in the various heavens—a national treasure-level figure. How could they not be curious?

No wonder they were Ye Chen's good brothers—every one of them was unreliable. Ye Chen was still fighting for his life, yet here they were, studying a woman.

The old-timers were no better, crowding around in waves, examining her like they were appraising an antique, determined to figure her out completely.

The female Sheng Ti paid them no mind, didn't struggle, and didn't curse. She only stared at the Tian Mo Zhu, as if she could see through the haze to the blood-soaked Ye Chen inside.

Her beautiful eyes were clear as water, misty and dazed. In those fleeting moments, she couldn't hide her complexity and worry, as if she knew what was in the Tian Mo Zhu—a Tian Di-level remnant soul, equivalent to a great emperor, or perhaps even more terrifying than one.

Donghuang Tai Xin said nothing, only quietly watching the female Sheng Ti.

To this day, she still didn't know the reason why a Huang Gu Sheng Ti would help the Tian Mo. Her question was the same as everyone else's—they couldn't fathom the cause.

The various Zhun Di didn't ask; this wasn't the time for interrogation.

Given how strong the female Sheng Ti was, they added more seals to prevent any further incidents.
