Chapter 1988: Chapter 1988: The Fall of the Sacred Emperor, More Mudstone Slabs [3rd Update]
Unexpectedly, I’ve seen the mudstone tablets again!
Chu Yuan had previously obtained some mudstone tablets, which recorded various mysterious rules and possessed extremely special powers, but he never knew their origin.
Initially.
Chu Yuan thought these mudstone tablets were created by some ancient and mysterious powerhouse.
But as he learned more, he discovered this was actually not the case.
The lines on the mudstone tablets were another heavenly truth, different paths and laws, and he even speculated that they might not have been nurtured by the Eternal Path.
Even if the Great Extinction of Eternity descended, these mudstone tablets would not be destroyed.
They seemed to be something that even the Great Extinction couldn’t obliterate.
With his current power, he couldn’t destroy the mudstone tablets directly, which showed the terrifying nature of these tablets.
He had a speculation.
Just like the system wasn’t from the Eternal Path, these mudstone tablets were very likely from the same place as the system, a final world.
Understanding the mudstone tablets might reveal the true origin of the system.
This was an unexpected gain.
The Saint Emperor had more mudstone tablets in his hand than Chu Yuan, with as many as hundreds, but it was still just a small complete segment.
Of course, this wasn’t surprising; the Saint Emperor had existed for so long, whereas he hadn’t for nearly as long. He was aware of the power of the mudstone tablets and therefore actively collected them.
And he used the mudstone tablets to comprehend his own eternal rules.
He knew that comprehending the power of the Eternal Path couldn’t break the curse, so he sought out the power in those mudstone tablets that even the Great Extinction couldn’t obliterate, gradually transcending himself.
This Saint Emperor was also a remarkable and outstanding individual.
Using the power of eternity itself, and with the eternal path he comprehended, a royal weapon appeared, driving his mana to the extreme, and as it surged forward, his imperial world appeared.
He regarded himself as a small eternity while drawing power from the outside world.
Unfortunately.
The Saint Emperor would not be willing to join his Eternal Kingdom and chose to oppose him.
After all, an empire can only have one Emperor.
Chu Yuan opened the Eternal Gate at all times, invincible across the ages, and faced the Saint Emperor’s power. He strode forward and struck out with a punch, unleashing his Eternal Kingdom.
Boundless power struck heavily upon him.
Although the Saint Emperor fashioned armor for himself out of the mudstone tablets, he could only use it instinctively and couldn’t truly unleash his power.
Suddenly, his body trembled violently.
And as his imperial weapon fell, Chu Yuan effortlessly blocked it with a mere raise of his hand.
The difference in their essential life force was too vast, not on the same level.
Buzz...
The Saint Emperor absolutely refused to admit defeat. No matter how powerful this person was, he sought to bravely shake him, condensing his power to a singular point, creating the force of an eternal explosion.
"Each era shall end by my hands."
Chu Yuan’s voice was soul-stirring.
He transcended the world, and any superficial force couldn’t affect him.
A sweeping strike from him, with its destructive and ferocious power, shattered eternity, as if glimpsing things beyond this eternity.
He walked through the world, passing by the Saint Emperor, continually breaking his power apart.
The result of this battle needed no guessing; there was already no other possibility.
The Saint Emperor could not be a match for the God Martial Emperor, no matter how much power he gained.
The Eternal Gate opened.
At this moment, the Eternal Gate transformed into a Devouring Gate, and the power of eternal rules descended limitlessly, yet all power was devoured by his Eternal Gate.
He sought to bring the Saint Emperor to his final end.
Wherever his power reached, the radiance transformed into his new eternal world. All things of the past were decaying; only he had the power to create a new world.
Majestic beyond measure, he completely suppressed the Saint Emperor.
Chu Yuan cultivated the mightiest eternal path.
Kill!
Even at this moment, the Saint Emperor’s face showed no fear, as his imperial weapon once more erupted with towering power, violently slashing toward Chu Yuan.
Yet, all his attacks, in others’ eyes, were merely his last struggles.
Within the Eternal Gate, the Eternal Imperial Weapon, the Divine Martial Divine Sword flew out, clashing with his imperial weapon midair with a single blow.
Crack! His imperial weapon immediately exploded, scattering countless fragments in all directions.
Yet the Saint Emperor continued to fight, determined to stand until the last moment, to die standing rather than in humiliation.
Chu Yuan could fulfill his wish.
A single blow landed on the Saint Emperor, spawning hundreds of millions of mighty waves, roaring power that annihilated all, breaking apart even the Saint Emperor’s imperial body.
"The last battle of this life!"
The Saint Emperor also realized he was beyond redemption.
Even if he was now equivalent to a host of eternal rules, it was useless.
Golden light expanded, transforming him completely into a being of light, the most intense power surging with his strike.
Although he too had comprehended his unique eternal rules, the power of these rules couldn’t break through Chu Yuan’s power, unable to compare to this more majestic entity.
Chu Yuan raised both hands, suppressing all.
The power of his Eternal Kingdom spread, this belonged to his eternal power, completely enclosing the Saint Emperor within.
The roars of eternal rules could be heard.
Boundless Eternal Origin descended, wishing to provide the Saint Emperor with retaliatory power, but alas, all was intercepted by the Eternal Gate, becoming Chu Yuan’s in the bag.
Chu Yuan was the mightiest Emperor; his invincible power transformed into the grandest celestial river with a punch, instantly striking the Saint Emperor.
The final annihilating power.
Nothing and no defense could withstand it.
The Saint Emperor froze in place, then disintegrated into dazzling light particles, and his entire being disappeared with the light.
The Saint Emperor was slain.
His possessions vanished, except for hundreds of mudstone tablets left floating.
Chu Yuan grabbed these hundreds of mudstone tablets; the rule lines on them were very incomplete and couldn’t be pieced together.
Had they been complete, the Saint Emperor could have used them to comprehend the truly strongest eternal path, yet with those incomplete mudstone tablets, he still uncovered his true eternal methods.
Comprehending the power of eternal rules would always be limited.
Chu Yuan’s wisdom was profound beyond measure; he glanced at these mudstone tablets surrounding him, as if a series of halos appeared, with rule lines twisting into chaos.
He observed.
The mudstone tablets seemed to have been condensed from some stronger, grander power, but now they were shattered, appearing not naturally divided, as if fragmented by another power.
What power could break the mudstone tablets remains unknown.
"Within the Eternal Path, it’s impossible to find all of the mudstone tablets."
Chu Yuan said.
He did not take further action but returned to the empire.
Representing era after era, all former supreme beings have been thoroughly defeated by him, the myths ended.
Now, as the situation reaches this point, Chu Yuan knows he is to return to the Empire to comprehend the eternal path, to truly take that most challenging and majestic step.
