Chapter 96: The Final Showdown, The Four Great Sovereigns!
“Enemy attack!”
“Hold the line, let’s chop them into tiny pieces!”
In an instant, the air was filled with howls and an explosion of energy, as terrifying waves of magic converged like an ocean.
The sky darkened, raging winds howled, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged wildly.
Bloodthirst soared into the heavens!
This decisive battle gathered nearly all of the most powerful forces from the Nine States, thousands of top-tier experts clashing in a chaotic melee.
This was a rare event in the history of the cultivation realm!
One could definitely call this battle earth-shattering!
In the distance,
Jiang Wujì stood on his flying ship, exuding an aura of murderous intent, while countless flying ships and cultivators stood in formation behind him.
With incredible speed, they charged towards the freshly established array!
“Their array isn’t complete yet!”
“Let’s smash through and crush them! Whoever makes it into the Eternal Emperor’s resting place will be richly rewarded in the Celestial Court and can ascend immediately!”
Jiang Wujì howled with a fierce expression, as if he had gone mad.
He was betting it all; he had to wash away past humiliations and get his revenge this time.
No kidding, his strategy was actually quite savvy.
No hesitation, no sneaky tricks—just a sheer numerical advantage charging in!
They had to sweep through before the defensive formation became even stronger; every second they delayed, their attack would become even harder!
Boom!
Bang bang bang!
In the blink of an eye, the two sides collided with each other, and at the moment of confrontation, space shattered.
Within a hundred miles, the earth trembled like a tsunami.
A staggering sound echoed!
Terrifying storms swept across in waves, with all kinds of aftermath crashing into everything, turning the whole place to dust.
Such an astonishing storm would turn any cultivator below the transformation stage to ash with just a whiff of it!
Jiang Wujì and his group charged ferociously; the sturdy flying ships broke through the defensive line, smashing their way through!
The accumulated force caused dozens of figures to fly out in all directions.
Boom!
Yuan Ruoyu flashed her figure, arriving at the front line, her face cold and her every move unleashing devastating spells!
Life after life was ruthlessly harvested in her hands.
In that moment, her demeanor transformed; the fairy-like aura evaporated, leaving only an ice-cold killing intent, resembling a female demon.
With a flick of her finger, a beautiful petal flew out.
Boom!
Several body-fusion stage cultivators exploded; their souls didn’t even have time to escape before her palm crushed them to pieces.
Not far away, Ye Qingge and the Purple Paulownia Great Emperor each charged in from different directions.
As they passed, enemies fell one after another.
Jiang Wujì and the other emperors, who had refined different species, gawked at this scene, feeling a chill run down their spines.
“Their strength has increased significantly since before!”
Jiang Wujì silently thought and then his face went cold as he commanded, “Activate the flying ships, smash through!”
Boom!
This batch of flying ships was also a da-grade treasure, indestructible; under full power, the collision force was enough to make any emperor retreat!
The massive flying ship, thousands of feet long, glowed intensely as it charged towards Yuan Ruoyu.
Bang—
Boom!
Yuan Ruoyu pushed her palm forward, her form swiftly recoiling as she sidestepped.
“Keep crashing!”
Jiang Wujì sneered, reveling in his scheme working out.
But the next moment, Yuan Ruoyu began to weave hand seals, activating a great formation far away.
A beam of light shot up into the sky, piercing the heavens.
Incredible power radiated outward.
“Xuan k*ll Formation, activate!”
Next moment, beams of light from the formation engulfed the flying ships, bombarding them with destructive power again and again.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Xuan k*ll Formation was a devastating battle array, and under its onslaught, the treasures on the flying ships were annihilated, shaking them to their cores.
Jiang Wujì gritted his teeth and commanded, “Get off the ships, let’s fight them!”
Outside the battlefield,
Heavenly Punishment Sovereign hovered in the sky, overlooking the slaughter unfolding below, his mask hiding the flickering light in his deep-set eyes.
He felt restless and fidgety!
But then he thought of something, hesitating to take action.
“Where on earth is Ye Xi?”
He continually pondered this question and realized he hadn’t seen Ye Xi’s shadow.
This made him cautious about acting recklessly!
Having fought against Ye Xi before, he was aware of her terror; if given the chance…
Life and d*ath could be a moment’s misfortune.
The more he thought, the more chaotic his heart became; he ground his teeth, yet didn’t dare to make any move.
“In this situation, she has to be lurking nearby!”

“She’s definitely here!”
“Ye Xi must be hiding somewhere, waiting for the prey to come to her; hmph, I won’t be fooled!”
Heavenly Punishment Sovereign took a deep breath, trying hard to maintain his composure.
The battlefield was merciless!
At every moment, cultivators were falling, body and soul obliterated.
The Primordial Mountain Range, this ancient place, was now utterly devastated, resembling a wasteland in the apocalypse.
Peaks collapsed, leveled to the ground, and the land was riddled with terrifying cracks!
Only in the very center of the battlefield!
Where the Eternal Emperor lay in eternal slumber, that space seemed unaffected.
It continued to stand there, coldly watching everything unfold…
————
In the secret space,
Qing Dai was so anxious that she was almost bouncing off the walls, pacing back and forth as her frustration brewed like a storm.
“ Hurry up! Hurry up!”
“They’ve started fighting; let me out!”
Qing Dai clenched her fists, glancing outside as she urged the Taiping Sword Spirit.
The Taiping Immortal Sword was cautiously slicing through the space.
In a slightly immature voice, it said, “The seals set up by the master are too many! Originally, no one could enter or leave!”
“But you’re special; I just need to break a few of the array’s patterns, and you can use your innate divine power to pass through!”
Qing Dai stamped her foot, “Then hurry!”
Boom!
She didn’t hold back her strength and shook the entire secret space.
Taiping Sword Spirit: “Be gentle, my master is still sleeping!”
“Sleeping? The sky is falling outside!”
“….”
After a moment, the Taiping Sword Spirit’s voice chimed in joy, “It’s done, Cow Sister, hurry!”
“Remember, be careful; my master thinks very highly of you; if anything happens, he’ll be heartbroken!”
Qing Dai was first delighted, but then her expression turned dark as she thought, “Does he think highly of me or just want to drink milk tea?”
But now wasn’t the time to ponder that…
Suddenly, in the secret space, the various array formations had a gap created by the Taiping Sword Spirit, revealing a small opening.
It was just a moment, but it was enough for Qing Dai!
“Hmph! I’m outta here!”
With demonic energy surging, she was enveloped in a halo and seemed to dive into the space like a swimmer.
She slipped through the opening…
Then, the formation’s gap quickly closed again. The Taiping Sword Spirit watched this scene with a tinge of envy:
“No wonder the master values her so much; she’s a treasure trove!”
“Not only is she incredibly strong, her defensive abilities are amazing, and her innate divine power to traverse space is extremely rare.”
Finishing that, it turned its gaze outward.
The slaughter between the two sides had reached a point of absolute frenzy; everyone was seeing red.
Suddenly, a flash of green light zipped by.
Qing Dai appeared just as an unsuspecting elder from the Hua Family was controlling dozens of puppet corpses to attack her.
She was immediately enraged!
“I came here to watch, and you dare hit me? That’s on you!”
Qing Dai roared, her overwhelming demonic energy exploding as she punched straight at the Hua Family elder!
Bang!
The terrifying power blasted through everything it hit, shattering the puppet corpses and obliterating the Hua Family elder.
Even the space behind him created a gaping hole.
Before the Hua Family elder died, he never thought that he’d be obliterated by a single punch.
This shocking vibrational energy drew countless gazes.
A figure rushed over quickly, clad in battle armor from the Celestial Dynasty; it was Ye Qingge.
Seeing Qing Dai, she beamed, “Sister Qing Dai!”
“Finally found you, where have you been?”
Qing Dai also felt happy and blurted out, “Delivering milk—no, I was—”
“It’s too complicated to explain now; we’ll talk later!”
Ye Qingge nodded, “Alright, let’s wipe out these garbage first, then I’ll treat you to milk tea!”
“Awesome!”
In terms of combat power, Qing Dai was even stronger than Ye Qingge and Que Ruyi.
After all, she was a top-tier demon beast.
Whether in terms of physical strength or power, she was incredibly astonishing; even ordinary treasures would have trouble harming her.
As Qing Dai jumped into the battle, the tide shifted ever so slightly.
The scales of victory began to tip.
Even though the number of emperors on the defensive alliance was fewer than their opponents, their combat strength was indeed superior.
Just as everyone was savoring this moment of triumph…
An overwhelming aura enveloped the area; a terrifying pressure rolled in, crashing down on them.
The entire battlefield paused for a moment.
Looking up,
Four figures stood in the void, each wearing a mask, gazing eerily at the battlefield.
The Four Great Sovereigns!
Heaven’s Mandate, Heaven’s Intention, Heaven’s Net, and Heavenly Punishment!
They could no longer hold back and decided to personally intervene.
