Yan Tu, a sixth-tier Heavenly Emperor.
He stood before the realm gate, his divine sense sweeping.
With no concealment in the Thunder Realm, a single glance could instantly capture all anomalous energies.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, a hint of joy appeared on Heavenly Emperor Yan Tu's face.
Found you.
A smile spread across his face: "Interesting, is the most dangerous place the safest place?"
"Heavenly Emperor Yan Tu..." The fourth-tier Heavenly Emperor of the Thunder Realm hadn't understood what was happening.
Ch
Heavenly Emperor Yan Tu stepped into the Thunder Realm.
At the same time, he said, "Close the realm gate, this emperor will catch a few small bugs..."
"Come..."
Just as the realm gate closed.
Boom.
A grand path of life and death, with unparalleled might, charged into the Thunder Realm.
Without any concealment.
The anomalous grand path surged into the Divine Firmament Domain, instantly triggering a counter-resistance from all grand paths within the domain, alarming everyone.
Life and death merged, forming a long river that flowed directly into the Thunder Realm.
The other four patrol envoys simultaneously cast their gazes.
"Life and Death, a fourth-tier world."
Heavenly Emperor Hu Xi from the Divine Firmament Great World shook his head: "Yan Tu is lucky to have found it. Life and Death, though still weak, is a significant opportunity."
The other three Heavenly Emperors also felt a tinge of regret.
"Let's go." Heavenly Emperor Hu Xi prepared to leave.
In the Divine Firmament Domain, the Path of God is walked.
Though Life and Death was strong, it was not indispensable. Obtaining it was best, but if not... one would not incur the enmity of a sixth-tier Heavenly Emperor over a mere fourth-tier grand path.
"Let's go."
Finally, all four departed.
Yan Tu, a sixth-tier Heavenly Emperor, dealing with a mere fourth-tier Heavenly Emperor, and within the radiance of the Divine Firmament Domain's grand path, was a sure bet.
...
Inside the Thunder Realm.
Boom.
The petrification grand path, with overwhelming force, suppressed the thunder grand path.
The grand path spread, like an interwoven web of dao, slowly eroding the entire world, petrifying it.
Heavenly Emperor Yan Tu stopped.
He could have intervened, but he did not.
He did not even pursue the direction from which the departing aura came, watching with keen interest as the petrification grand path slowly eroded the world, unsuppressed by the Thunder Realm Lord.
The Thunder Realm was sealed.
"Heh heh."
A smile appeared on Yan Tu's face.
He seemed to have guessed something, muttering to himself with a smile, "No retreat left, you intend to fight this Heavenly Emperor to the death?"
Yes, he could tell.
If they wanted to escape, they would have done so the moment the realm gate closed.
These individuals, not only did they not flee, but they also drew power from the grand path universe into the Thunder Realm, and even sealed the entire realm.
The purpose was self-evident.
"I'll give you a chance."
Heavenly Emperor Yan Tu waited calmly: "I hope you do not disappoint me."
This was the confidence of a sixth-tier Heavenly Emperor.
Soon, the entire Thunder Realm was sealed.
No entry, no exit.
Unless the petrification grand path covering the entire Thunder Realm was shattered.
The petrification grand path was not particularly strong, but it was very effective, at least capable of isolating their aura. Even if the Thunder Realm was in turmoil, the outside world would not easily perceive it.
In the shadows!
All those preparing to attack had their bodies tensed.
Now, they awaited the City Lord's command.
"Kill."
Finally, the order was given.
Boom.
The Immortal Emperor and Chen Fan attacked together.
A supreme powerhouse of the Body Grand Path unleashed a world-shattering punch.
A gifted youth walking the path of life and death severed life and death with a single sword.
Above the entire Thunder Realm, only that sword and fist could be seen.
Yan Tu looked up, nodding slightly: "Interesting."
Buzz.
Above his head, the power of the grand path instantly appeared.
With a raise of his hand, his five fingers descended like mountains, suppressing all.
Sword versus finger, fist versus finger.
The three clashed incessantly in the sky, causing the entire Thunder Realm to shake.
"Ch."
The incomparably sharp sword intent of life and death severed a finger of the grand path.
Though successful, it came at a price.
The Life and Death Sword directly shattered.
A full-power strike from a fourth-tier Life and Death Heavenly Emperor only managed to sever a corner of the sixth-tier Heavenly Emperor's attack.
"Bang bang bang."
The Immortal Emperor was, after all, an Immortal Emperor.
The fifth-tier Heavenly Emperor, with overwhelming might, continuously clashed against the five fingers... no, now it was four divine mountains.
The fingers suppressed, shattering millions of fists.
Finally...
Boom.
The Immortal Emperor's furious assault finally shattered one finger.
"Again."
The Immortal Emperor refused to yield.
He had felt fear towards this Heavenly Emperor Yan Tu before, but once he truly fought, he had never known the meaning of fear.
"Fight."
Chen Fan raised his sword and attacked again.
Behind them...
The hidden Old Devil Chu and others, without reservation, drew upon the power of the grand path surging from the Life and Death Realm.
Overlord led the charge: "Fight..."
The mighty ones besieged the sixth-tier Heavenly Emperor.
"Ants."
Heavenly Emperor Yan Tu did not even turn his head.
With a mere cold snort, Xi Qiu and Kuang Di immediately spat blood and flew backward.
They were merely Emperor Lords, and the gap between them and a Heavenly Emperor was immense.
To dare to wield a butcher's knife against a Heavenly Emperor was already a monumental feat. Few dared to act against such a disparity in rank.
It was only their boundless arrogance that allowed the two to attack a top-tier Heavenly Emperor.
"Boom."
Overlord and Old Devil Chu charged forward.
These two were already Heavenly Emperors.
Kill.
Demonic flames surged, the War Demon emerged, drawing the long bow from his back.
He drew the bow... the Path of Demons transformed into a pitch-black arrow.
Pfft.
The arrow broke through the air, arriving in an instant.
It hit.
The arrow struck Heavenly Emperor Yan Tu, but only caused a ripple.
The War Demon's arrow could not pierce the physical body of a sixth-tier Heavenly Emperor.
"Unparalleled Martial Dao."
Overlord attacked.
Rumble.
Three fourth-tier Heavenly Emperors, plus one fifth-tier Heavenly Emperor, besieged a sixth-tier Heavenly Emperor.
Four against one.
Yet, the outcome was dire.
"Boom."
The five-fingered divine mountain finally collapsed.
Thump.
The Immortal Emperor's fist finally landed on Heavenly Emperor Yan Tu's chest.
The Killing Sword followed closely.
"Sever me."
This sword was empowered by Chen Fan's life force.
Yan Tu was too strong.
Within the radiation range of the Azure Firmament Great World's grand path, even without drawing upon the grand path's power, he would naturally be strengthened.
The Sever Me Sword.
Either the enemy or I shall be severed.
This sword made Heavenly Emperor Yan Tu drop his dismissive attitude.
"Good sword."
Yan Tu's expression became considerably more serious.
He raised his hand and pointed again...
Ch.
The finger's light broke through the air.
A single finger struck the Tsumukumo Sword.
Towards this finger, Yan Tu had absolute confidence, for he was a sixth-tier Heavenly Emperor, and his opponent was merely a fourth-tier Heavenly Emperor.
However, the instant the two made contact.
Bang.
The finger's light shattered directly.
"How is this possible..." A flash of surprise crossed Yan Tu's eyes.
He wanted to retreat, but it was too late.
"Teleport."
Under these circumstances, Chen Fan directly activated his teleportation.
The long sword vanished from its spot and reappeared before Yan Tu.
"Pfft."
The long sword plunged directly into Yan Tu's heart.
"This..."
Yan Tu was stunned.
Unfortunately, the time for his stunned silence was short.
On the Life and Death Sword, the Path of Severance erupted.
In an instant, life was cut off, and death began to erode...
The bodies of the two froze in space, as if devoid of any sound.
"Kill."
The Immortal Emperor and others instantly surged forward.
For a time, the three unleashed their full power, all their attacks falling upon Yan Tu. His physical body continuously shattered, and his grand path rippled.
"Damn it..."
Kuang Di, watching from afar, felt a surge of envy.
Immediately, a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes, and his figure shot up into the sky.
I'm going to break through to the Heavenly Emperor realm.
