Chapter 417: Crisis of the Void Emperor
Chapter 417: Crisis of the Void Emperor
Voidless Heavenly Emperor immediately ordered someone to check the situation.
Soon, the scout returned to report.
"Ring King has been confirmed dead! Before his demise, he had already broken through to the Near Imperial-level, yet he couldn't even hold on for a single breath under that bizarre sword light and was instantly slain!"
Voidless Heavenly Emperor did not immediately order the sealing of that footage.
Star River King was inwardly shocked and dismayed. He had, for no reason, caused the death of one of his allies. Although it wasn't intentional on his part, nor did he directly cause it, this responsibility was undoubtedly his to bear.
Voidless Heavenly Emperor waited for a moment, then looked towards a certain shadow.
The shadow responded, "Your Majesty, Heavenly Emperor, a total of three hundred billion allied troops have viewed that footage. Of those, two hundred and ninety-nine billion who watched the entire content have all perished, including three at the Near Imperial-level, five at the King-level, and seven hundred and sixty at the Near King-level."
As soon as his words fell, everyone was dumbfounded.
No one expected the situation to be this severe.
"Ten billion people did not finish watching it entirely. Most of them interrupted their viewing right after the order was issued, thus preserving their lives. It was merely a recording of a battle. One person in it is a Continent-City Level cultivator from our alliance, and the other is an existence from the Seven Stars God Realm Sea named Su Ba Yuan. The cause of death for so many powerful figures lies in the latter half of the footage, where Su Ba Yuan turned his head to look at the viewer, resulting in the viewer's demise. It's worth mentioning that no one can remember Su Ba Yuan's appearance anymore."Voidless Heavenly Emperor pondered for a moment and said, "It seems to be a master proficient in space-time assassination techniques. His strength should have reached the peak of the Near Imperial-level, or even possibly reached the Imperial-level! Does the Seven Stars God Realm Sea have such a powerhouse? What about the intelligence department?"
Someone broke into a cold sweat: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Heavenly Emperor, it has been verified that there are four Kings in the Seven Stars God Realm Sea. There should be none above the King-level!"
Voidless Heavenly Emperor calmed down and immediately checked the sect information of the Seven Stars Sect.
Previously, he had only given it a cursory glance. Now, upon reviewing it again, he immediately discovered a problem. The allied forces had no specific intelligence on the Patriarch of the Seven Stars Sect. This person seemed not to exist, overlooked by everyone, including himself!
Could it be?
Voidless Heavenly Emperor thought for a moment. After making preparations, he opened that intelligence report.
That's right. Even knowing the danger of the footage, he still intended to open and view it. He wanted to see for himself what strength this so-called Seven Stars Patriarch truly possessed. He was within an Imperial-level City-type Supreme Treasure, with peerless defense. He did not believe that the Seven Stars Patriarch could kill him, an Imperial-level being, across countless spans of space-time!
The footage was opened.
The scene showed an ordinary battle between Continent-City Level combatants. Their combat power could be elevated to the Near King-level, but that was about it.
Just as the footage was about to end.
He saw that Su Yuan turn his head and look.
Time froze at this moment.
In an instant, the stars shifted.
A period of time earlier.
Su Yuan felt that his understanding of the Continent-City Level had reached a perfect stage. Therefore, he unleashed his move and slew Tie He.
Thus, he had thoroughly mastered the understanding of rules below the King-level, reaching a level where he could wield them freely.
Next was the understanding of Dao Principles.
Suddenly.
After slaying Tie He.
Su Yuan sensed a feeling of being spied upon.
So he turned his head and looked over.
In that instant, his gaze traversed space-time, seeing countless pairs of eyes looking back at him.
The number actually reached hundreds of billions!
This puzzled Su Yuan greatly.
"Forget it. I was just about to start experimenting with the application of Dao Principles anyway. Might as well make a slight move!"
In this moment, Su Yuan didn't think too much. He casually swung out a sword strike. Into this sword strike, Su Yuan integrated the Star Dao Principle, the Time Dao Principle, the Space Dao Principle, the Five Elements Dao Principle, and the Name Dao Principle!
Using the Name Dao Principle as the underlying logic, the Star Rule as the main body, and assisted by many Dao Principles like Time, Space, and the Five Elements, he unleashed a Dao Principle Sword!
This was an attack directly operating at the level of Dao Principles, unaffected by rules. Those below the King-level had no ability to resist!
Actually, the King-level should be a brand new realm above the Wuji Realm. Su Yuan termed it the Dao Realm, with the extreme of the Dao being the Dao Lord Realm.
In an instant, all gazes cast from those below the King-level were extinguished. It was an erasure at the Dao Principle level. To resurrect, one would need abilities at the same Dao Principle level, and even surpass Su Yuan.
Even the King-level realm couldn't withstand it either. The King-level had merely just entered the Dao Realm, considered the initial stage of the Dao Realm, and couldn't hold out for even half a moment!
Only the final gaze remained, which came from an Imperial-level being.
"Perfect timing!"
In Su Yuan's attack, wiping out all the others was incidental. The main offensive power was concentrated on this Imperial-level being.
He very much hoped this person could block this strike, providing him with some combat experience.
At this moment.
Voidless Heavenly Emperor felt a force of restraint, a power stemming from the stillness of space-time.
It wasn't that he was controlled, but rather that the Time Dao Principle and Space Dao Principle around him had temporarily ceased operation!
In other words, at this moment, time and space temporarily did not exist.
From the most fundamental logic, the concepts of time and space were erased, comparable to nothingness!
Voidless Heavenly Emperor knew how to resolve this restraint: create one's own space-time! Not relying on the external space-time Dao Principles, but using one's own power to open up time and space, thereby allowing space to flow and time to operate, thus breaking free from this restraint.
However, the moment he released his Space-Time Rule Domain, he knew it was too late, because a sword light had already traversed space-time and arrived!
He could only retaliate!
Fortunately, having created his own space-time, he could strike back.
"Voidless Sorrow!"
Voidless Heavenly Emperor grinned ferociously, transforming the power of the Voidless Dao Principle into a tentacle-covered Voidless Tentacle. Any rule force, even Dao Principle force, upon touching the Voidless Tentacle would turn into nothingness!
The Voidless Tentacle extended countless tentacles, enveloping that sword light!
The Voidless Power immediately began eroding all forces within the sword light!
In Voidless Heavenly Emperor's perception, vast amounts of matter and rule forces were instantly vaporized. Even the Time Dao Principle, Space Dao Principle, and Five Elements Dao Principle forces within turned into nothingness.
However, the primary Star Dao Principle within seemed to be immune to the Voidless Power, continuing its assault towards Voidless Heavenly Emperor!
"How is this possible?" Voidless Heavenly Emperor was horrified.
The Voidless Power was grinding away at the Star Dao Principle force, but there was a certain power replenishing the Star Sword from within the void, leaving it completely unscathed.
The [Nine Stars Land] was spread throughout the world, able to replenish the Star Sword's consumption from anywhere.
Su Yuan controlled the [Nine Stars Land] not to replenish it.
However, when the Voidless Power reached the core of the Star Sword, an invisible yet extremely powerful force directly immunized against all damage from the Voidless Power.
Amidst Voidless Heavenly Emperor's horror, the Star Sword pierced his body. Everything about him began to be erased within this sword light, as if an eraser was wiping away all of Voidless Heavenly Emperor's existence.
