Chapter 2945: Chaos of the Emperor's Tribulation

Golden blood illuminated Taishang Tian, each ray piercing the hearts and minds of everyone in the world.

Reflected in the scene of destruction was Ye Chen's blood-soaked figure.

The six emperors were terrifying; even their Tian Di level taboo laws could annihilate heaven and earth.

Hong! Hong Long Long!

Unending roars echoed throughout the vast starry sky.

It was Donghuang Nüdi, still traversing various locations, destroying one heavenly demon pillar after another.

Since the Tian Di laws had manifested, the demon pillars descending upon the realms were no longer at the great emperor level; they were all Tian Di level.

She dared not be careless; whenever one descended, she destroyed it immediately.

Ming Di and Dao Zu were also diligently protecting the realms; even someone as notoriously unreliable as Ming Di didn't dare to slack off.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Nine consecutive bangs resounded as nine more demon pillars descended. All were blood-red and Tian Di level, standing in a neat row at the edge of the universe. Before any figures could be seen, rolling demonic energy surged forth, engulfing the star domain.

As expected, nine E Mo Tian Di would emerge.

Donghuang Nüdi appeared in an instant, sweeping her sword horizontally and cutting all nine demon pillars in half.

Unfortunately, one E Mo Tian Di still managed to escape.

"Emperor Nüdi?"

"Is that... the Saint Body Di Jie?"

"How is that possible?"

The E Mo Tian Di steadied himself, spotting the emperor and sensing the Di Jie—it was Ye Chen undergoing his Dao proof.

Zheng!

Donghuang Nüdi was already upon him, swinging her sword.

"You insignificant great emperor, how dare you attack—"

The E Mo Tian Di sneered, but before he could finish his sentence, his expression changed drastically. True, she was just a great emperor, but her sword was no joke—it fused with taboo power, splitting open the heavens and earth.

Pū!

Accompanied by blood light, the E Mo Tian Di was sent flying, his imperial body cracking open.

"Good, very good."

The E Mo Tian Di grinned ferociously, instantly regenerating and charging forth with imperial demonic energy, his palm covering the heavens and earth.

Donghuang Nüdi's expression remained indifferent as she used Meng Hui Qian Gu, vanishing in an instant.

The Tian Di's palm did not stop because of her disappearance; it obliterated an entire star domain.

Hong!

At the same moment, a boom came from the southern Cang Miao, where another heavenly demon pillar had descended. Donghuang Nüdi appeared, destroyed it with a sword, and vanished again, returning to the universe's edge to sever one of the E Mo Tian Di's arms.

"Damned thing."

The E Mo Tian Di gritted his teeth, his face even more grotesque, and abandoned Donghuang Nüdi, heading straight for Tianhuang.

He wasn't foolish; he knew Ji Ning Shuang was protecting the Dao for the Saint Body.

In that case, he had to disrupt the Saint Body's Di Jie. The position of the realms was already exposed, so the Saint Body Di Jie had lost its value.

He wanted to leave, but Donghuang Nüdi wouldn't allow it.

In that instant, she used the Meng Dao imperial law, dragging the Tian Di level being into a dream realm.

"This law is useless against me."

The E Mo Tian Di snorted coldly, an exceptional master himself, escaping the dream realm as quickly as he was pulled in.

Once out, he stuck to his original plan and headed for Tianhuang again.

Donghuang Nüdi's movements were mysterious, like a shadow following him—or rather, when she had dragged the Tian Di into the dream earlier, she had imprinted a Meng mark on the E Mo Tian Di, similar to Ye Chen's wheel of reincarnation mark.

With this, she could manifest instantly before the E Mo Tian Di through the Meng mark.

Her sudden appearance caught the E Mo Tian Di off guard; before he could escape, Donghuang Nüdi's sword cleaved his imperial body.

Hua La La!

Donghuang Nüdi summoned chains of order, binding the E Mo Tian Di, and vanished with him in an instant.

They reappeared in the Tian Yuan star domain.

There, a newly descended Tian Di level demon pillar stood. Donghuang Nüdi used a heaven-defying divine ability, throwing the bound E Mo Tian Di into the pillar, then followed up with a palm strike that obliterated it.

Compared to destroying a Tian Di, throwing one into a demon pillar was more direct.

Only then did Donghuang Nüdi steady herself, glancing back at Da Dao Taishang Tian, her heart trembling involuntarily.

As she watched, she saw Ye Chen spattered with blood, half of his Saint Body destroyed by Tian Xu Tian Di's palm.

Ye Chen clenched his teeth and fled into the sky.

Awkwardly, the scene repeated itself: the seventh Tian Di law manifestation appeared, nearly blasting him apart with a palm.

"Hun Yuan Tian Di."

Dao Zu and Ming Di spoke in unison, recognizing the seventh emperor—more precisely, they had seen ancient images and been told secrets by Ruo Xi. He wasn't an ordinary Tian Di; during the ancient heavenly court war, he had slaughtered so many that the heavenly demons scattered in defeat, with countless foreign supreme beings buried by his hand, including many at the Tian Di level.

"Seven Tian Di now."

"Look, there's more."

As the words faded, the eighth Tian Di law manifestation appeared, heavily wounding Ye Chen as soon as it formed.

"Hui Mie Tian Di."

Ming Di fell silent, but Dao Zu murmured the name, clearly recognizing him.

"Jing Shi Tian Di."

This time, it was Ming Di who spoke; the ninth Tian Di law manifestation emerged, a female Tian Di with a graceful figure, dreamlike and illusory. Radiant immortal light filled Taishang Tian, her divine presence in no way inferior to Wang Chuan Tian Di.

Her appearance made Jiu Li Mu Xue's mind blur for a moment, feeling as if she had seen her before.

"She is from your ancestral line."

Wang Chuan Di Nü transmitted the words to Bei Sheng; the Jing Shi lineage also had its inheritance.

Jiu Li Mu Xue furrowed her brows slightly, with no ancient memories.

In that instant, she only knew that the residual Jing Shi immortal power within her was stirring restlessly.

Hong! Bang! Hong!

The Da Dao Taishang Tian in the midst of the roars had become completely chaotic. The nine Tian Di law manifestations were like nine dazzling suns, their light shining upon the world. Though it was brightness, it cast the light of doomsday, utterly overturning the heavens and earth.

Ye Chen was in a miserable state; after the later Tian Di manifestations appeared, he hadn't stood steady once. His Saint Body reformed time and again, only to be shattered repeatedly. In terms of lineup, it was one against nine; in terms of Dao comprehension, he was no match for the Tian Di.

The people could no longer bear to watch; it wasn't that Ye Chen wasn't strong enough—it was just that the opposing force was too overwhelming.

Though they had never heard legends of these nine ancient heavenly court Tian Di, witnessing them now revealed their immense power.

"You cannot extinguish me."

Ye Chen's gaze was firm, etched with an unyielding will, speaking to the heavens above. The nine emperors represented the will of Cang.

Since it was a heavenly tribulation, his heart would not die as long as his spirit endured.

The nine emperors were fearsome, but he was mad; the lifespan he had reversed from the emperor's realm was all sacrificed, and his Saint Body's origin was burning. Every profound gate in his body swallowed taboo power. Though he was a person, he resembled a ball of golden flame more, his invincible battle intent surging like a tide, breaking free from encirclement time and again.

The nine emperors had no consciousness, only unleashing imperial attacks to erase the one undergoing tribulation on behalf of Cang.

"This time limit should be up."

Xiao Yuan Huang scratched his monkey fur, muttering for what seemed like the umpteenth time.

"You can't reason about the Saint Body Di Jie normally."

Nan Di pondered, having realized this long ago and prepared himself.

"At this rate, he won't be beaten to death—he'll be worn to death."

Kui Niu cursed under his breath, his hands clenched white in his sleeves. He could see that Ye Chen had sacrificed his lifespan again and was burning his origin, forcing himself onto a path of no return: either prove the Dao and become emperor, or be destroyed body and soul.

"I say, is another imperial law manifestation coming?"

Xiao Ling Wa remarked, holding his telescope and staring at Da Dao Taishang Tian.

His eyesight was sharp.

In Da Dao Taishang Tian, besides Ye Chen and the nine emperors, more figures were manifesting.

But after that person appeared, everyone's expressions turned strange.

It wasn't surprising; the one who had just manifested had already appeared in Ye Chen's Di Jie before.

It was Chen Zhan, the epoch-making Dacheng Saint Body.

Following him, another figure manifested—not a great emperor or Saint Body, but a Dacheng Saint Demon.

That was Can Zhu, who had appeared during Ye Chen's Dacheng tribulation.

And that wasn't the end; manifesting alongside Can Zhu was Xuan Gu Great Emperor.

"This..."

Not just the people, even Tian Di and Ming Di frowned. Weren't people supposed to be the finale? With nine Tian Di level law manifestations already out, how could there still be great emperors, Dacheng Saint Bodies, and Dacheng Saint Demons?

Moreover, they had appeared before—why bring them out again for another round?

Hong! Bang! Hong!

As Tian Di and Ming Di watched, and the people watched, the roars in Taishang Tian continued incessantly.

After Xuan Gu Great Emperor, figures manifested one after another in succession.

Looking at those law manifestations, they were a true mixed bag: E Mo Di, Tian Mo Di, Dacheng Saint Demons, Dacheng Saint Bodies, the emperors of the realms, the emperors of the heavenly court—shadows filled the sky, numbering several hundred.

"Is this a big mishmash?"

Even someone as reserved as the Son of the Plane couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

Ye Chen's Di Jie was truly eye-opening; it included everything from Dacheng to Tian Di, from foreign realms to the heavens.

It was as if every supreme being had to be dragged out for a show.

Not quite—some of them had already been shown several times.

It was complete chaos; the scene in Da Dao Taishang Tian was utterly chaotic.

Fortunately, they were all law manifestations; if they were real supreme beings with consciousness, they would likely start a war in Taishang Tian—the Dacheng Saint Demons would fight the Dacheng Saint Bodies, and the emperors of the realms would battle the foreign emperors.

Tian Di and Ming Di were already accustomed to such scenes.

Of course! A Di Jie that violated the laws wouldn't play by the rules.

"You cannot extinguish me."

Ye Chen's laughter echoed through Taishang Tian.

He was laughing, laughing heartily.

Cang had pushed him to the brink, but he had also pushed Cang to the brink.

The current scene was a perfect sign: Cang was out of options.

Precisely because it had no options, it disrupted the order and forcibly summoned law manifestation after law manifestation. As long as they were supreme beings, it threw them all in without limit, trying to erase that defiant one undergoing tribulation.

"Come on."

Ye Chen roared across the universe, activating his outer appearance and dominating body, wielding a Dao staff in hand. He didn't fight the nine Tian Di; instead, he targeted the newly added law manifestations, sweeping them away with one staff strike. Aside from the Tian Di, none could withstand his Saint might.

Those destroyed law manifestations would reform, but each time they did, their power diminished. Every time Ye Chen destroyed one, its might weakened slightly—all great emperors, Saint Bodies, and Saint Demons were the same.

This was another good sign: Cang's foundation was insufficient; it could no longer sustain the law manifestations.

Over time, even the nine Tian Di's might was gradually waning.

This big mishmash perfectly illustrated a truth: numbers alone meant nothing.

"Emperor Dao Saint Demon?"

Someone exclaimed in shock.

In Da Dao Taishang Tian, more laws were manifesting—not a Dacheng Saint Demon, but an emperor-level Saint Demon, with godlike might that, in terms of pressure, was no weaker than a Tian Di law manifestation, though its combat power fell a bit short.

"Come, keep them coming."

Ye Chen went mad, dragging his blood-drenched Saint Body as he walked, cursed, fought, and howled along the way. He fought when he could and fled when he couldn't, eager to see whether Cang would extinguish him first or he would drain Cang's foundation dry.

"Is that really a Di Jie?"

Too many people murmured to themselves, staring blankly at Taishang Tian.

There were so many figures that it was hard to tell who was who.

The scene looked less like a tribulation and more like a massive brawl.

The Saint Body's tribulation, when it came, was always grand; such a spectacle was unparalleled in history.

"Entertaining, isn't it?"

Ming Di remarked casually, glancing in a certain direction.

"Entertaining."

From there came a woman's soft voice, clear and ethereal like an immortal melody.

It was Ruo Xi, or rather, the incomplete ancient heavenly court female emperor. She had left Ling Xiao Hall and stepped out of Da Chu.

Across the vast expanse, she could see the scene in Taishang Tian: Dacheng Saint Demons, Emperor Dao Saint Demons, E Mo Di, Tian Mo Di, the great emperors and Tian Di of the heavenly court. Such a lineup she had only seen during the ancient heavenly court war.

Now, they were all gathered in a single Di Jie—who wouldn't find it entertaining?
