Chaos Heavenly Emperor Art

"Given your current condition, forcibly attempting to break through to the ninth level will undoubtedly lead to your deaths."

Just as Ling Feng and his companion were staring at the teleportation array leading to the ninth floor, hesitating, the little tower's voice rang out again, carrying a warning tone.

"The divine pressure of the eighth level is your limit. The entrance to the ninth level contains the primordial law aura of the creator god, and its power far exceeds your imagination. Choosing a divine core now is your wisest and only choice."

Is certain death inevitable?
Ling Feng and Ling Zhan exchanged a glance. Perhaps, the little tower had not deceived them.

Even though they hadn't yet entered the ninth level, the faint divine pressure emanating from the teleportation array was enough to send a shiver down their spines.

However, if they don't even have the courage to try, then they are not Lingfeng.

Since embarking on the path of martial arts, Ling Feng has won, lost, and even died!
But I was never afraid!

This is Ling Feng!
Their very bones flow with the blood of fearlessness and moving forward!
The more impossible something seems, the more you should try!

"Everyone is here!"

Ling Feng grinned, revealing his gleaming white teeth. He activated his Chaotic Star God Body at full power, and the dazzling starlight forcefully pushed aside the surrounding pressure field.

"How can we go back empty-handed!"

Ling Zhan also let out a low roar, and dark golden dragon flames shot into the sky, his dragon might overwhelming.

"Hahaha!"

The two looked at each other and burst into laughter.

The next moment, the two no longer hesitated, pushing their remaining power to the limit, transforming into two streams of light, one blue and one gold, and charging fiercely towards the teleportation array leading to the ninth floor!
"Commendable courage, but unfortunately, utterly foolish!"

The little tower shook its head; what it said about the consequences of Ling Feng and his companion forcibly entering the ninth level was not unfounded.

If the ninth level were so easy to conquer, Wu Zhao wouldn't have failed and returned empty-handed on the eighth level.

Sure enough, the moment the two made contact with the vortex of light surrounding the teleportation array—

boom! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
A terrifying power, beyond words, erupted!
The feeling was as if the weight of the entire universe, along with all the laws governing its birth and end, had crushed down in an instant!
"puff--!"

"Ugh—!"

Ling Feng and Ling Zhan both coughed up mouthfuls of blood, and their protective divine light shattered instantly!
The moment Ling Feng's right arm touched the light membrane, it shattered like fragile glass, turning into a cloud of blood mist!
Ling Zhan's left leg suffered the same fate, instantly annihilated from the knee down, leaving not even a trace behind!

A piercing pain swept through their bodies, and the two of them were sent flying backward as if struck by a giant hammer, crashing heavily onto the hard ground of the eighth floor. They rolled dozens of times before finally coming to a stop.

In just a moment of contact, countless bones in their bodies were shattered, their breaths were extremely weak, and their blood stained the ground red.

Ling Feng struggled to lift his head, looking at his empty right shoulder, then at Ling Zhan not far away, who was equally gruesome, having lost a leg. Both men's eyes were filled with horror, resentment, and a hint of...

A devastating shock.

That was an irresistible, insurmountable power, representing supreme divine might that surpassed all gods!

Ninth floor...

That's a realm that beings of their level simply cannot enter!
That is……

The forbidden zone of the Creator God!
The next moment, Xiaota's figure slowly floated in front of them, her voice still calm: "Now, do you understand? Choose, whether to leave your life and take away an opportunity, or... continue to needlessly throw your life away."

Inside the tower, only the heavy, painful breathing of the two remained.

After a long while, Ling Feng and his companion managed to forcibly repair their damaged limbs using the Undying Golden Body Technique, but their already meager source power was now almost completely depleted.

"Being unwilling is useless."

The little tower swam up to Ling Feng and said with a smile, "You can't even get into the teleportation array, let alone enter the ninth level. In tens of millions of years, you are already the second and third people to be able to enter here, which is already very... remarkable!"

Ling Feng shook his newly formed arm. Although he was still weak, it was alright. The teleportation array only emitted a trace of the divine pressure of the God of Creation.

If it was truly the power of creation that severely injured him, even the power of his indestructible golden body would likely become completely ineffective.

His arm will probably never grow back.

Ling Zhan also stretched his left leg, frowning as he said, "This power is truly extremely domineering!"

The next moment, the two looked at each other and saw deep resentment and a hint of... determination in each other's eyes.

"We're already at the door, are we just going to give up like this?"

Ling Feng stared at the ninth-level teleportation array, which still exuded a chilling aura, his voice hoarse.

"impossible!"

Ling Zhan's answer was resolute, his dark golden dragon eyes burning with an indomitable flame, "Having come this far, how can I be content if I don't give it my all? This little setback can't stop me!"

A minor setback?

Ling Feng smiled bitterly; that attack just now almost annihilated them, body and soul.

But he understood what Ling Zhan meant. As fellow "Ling Feng," they shared the same unwavering determination and madness.

"Even if any one of us tries to force our way in, we have absolutely no chance of succeeding."

Ling Feng's eyes flickered, his brain racing. "The only hope is probably... fusion."

Ling Zhan smiled and said, "That's exactly what I was thinking. Only by using that power can we truly go all out."

Although they had just gone through a fierce battle and were under the terrifying pressure of the eighth level, and had just been severely injured by the entrance to the ninth level, their source energy was greatly depleted and their spirits were exhausted.

Forcing a fusion again carries even greater risks than before, and could even directly lead to the collapse of the origin.

However, Ling Feng would never give up without truly giving it his all.

"This is the last chance."

Ling Feng took a deep breath, his eyes hardening with determination. "Three hours are up, and we have no time to recover. We must risk everything. Just because Wu Zhao can't do it doesn't mean we can't!"

“Exactly!” Ling Zhan raised his sword-like eyebrows, and his dragon aura suddenly erupted.

At the same time, Ling Feng also activated all the star meridians in his body again, and the power of the star god surged wildly.

"If this still doesn't work, we'll have to give up."

Ling Feng clenched his fists. He was indeed unwilling to give up easily, but that didn't mean he was stupid.

If even the Chaos Star Dragon God cannot withstand it, then trying to force his way in would truly be suicide.

"Let's do it first! We'll talk about it after we're done, okay?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

That resonance that came from the depths of their souls allowed them to understand each other's choices without much communication.

"Small tower!"

Ling Feng turned to look at the tower spirit floating to the side, "We'll try again!"

The small tower's tentacles swayed slightly, and its ethereal voice, tinged with surprise and barely perceptible anticipation, said calmly, "In your current state, the success rate of attempting to break through to the ninth level again is almost zero, and the possibility of perishing is over 99%. Even so, you still want to try?"

"Enough with the nonsense!" Ling Zhan growled impatiently. "Give us some time to prepare!"

"Do whatever you want! You damn fool, you can't be reasoned with!"

The little tower said nothing more and quietly floated to the side.

Ling Feng and Ling Zhan immediately sat down cross-legged, disregarding their current weakness, and fully activated their source power to recover as much strength as possible and calm their turbulent minds.

A moment later, the two opened their eyes at the same time. Although they were still in terrible condition, their eyes were sharp as knives.

"let's start!"

Without any unnecessary words, the two simultaneously let out a low shout, unleashing all the remaining power of the chaotic origin without reservation!

"Chaos Star Dragon God - Fusion!"

boom! ! !
Two beams of energy, one red and one blue, shot into the sky!

Ling Feng's starlight and Ling Zhan's dragon flames intertwined and merged wildly.

This time, due to their poor condition, the fusion process was exceptionally difficult and painful. Both of them let out suppressed roars at the same time, as if their bodies were about to be torn apart!
The cocoon of light twisted violently, sometimes expanding and sometimes contracting, as if it would explode at any moment!

Xiao Ta watched from the sidelines, shaking his head repeatedly. "He's a promising talent, but what a pity..."

However, no sooner had the words left his mouth than, relying on their indomitable willpower, Ling Feng and Ling Zhan achieved their second chaotic fusion...

Success again!
As the light faded, the figure of the Chaos Star Dragon God reappeared.

This time, however, his figure seemed less solid than before, and the chaotic star dragon power flowing around him appeared somewhat disordered. Although his aura was still powerful, it conveyed a sense of weakness that was outwardly strong but inwardly weak.

The divine light that once shone in his eyes has dimmed considerably.

"go!"

Chaos Star Dragon God wasted no time. Feeling the power rapidly draining from his body, he roared and transformed into a streak of light, once again rushing headlong towards the teleportation array leading to the ninth level!

The phantom of the small tower trembled slightly, seemingly not expecting that they would actually dare to make a second attempt in this state.

hum!
The moment the Chaos Star Dragon God touched the vortex light membrane, an even more terrifying and powerful pressure from the Creator God erupted!
It was as if the will of the entire universe was rejecting his intrusion!

"Uhhhhhh-!"

The Chaos Star Dragon God let out a painful roar, and the protective divine light around his body was instantly covered with cracks. His body surface began to crack, and golden blood gushed out like a fountain.

He felt as if his soul and body were about to be completely crushed by this force!

"Open it... for me!!!"

His left eye spun wildly, while his right eye burned to its limit. He pushed the remaining Chaotic Star Dragon Divine Power after the fusion to its peak, enduring the earth-shattering pressure, and little by little, squeezed his massive body into the teleportation membrane!
Click!

Click!

The sound of bones cracking was incessant, but he finally managed to squeeze half of his body inside!
"It's...really..."

The little tower murmured in disbelief.

"Roar!!!"

The Chaos Star Dragon God let out a roar that shook the entire tower, and with his last bit of strength, he struggled violently!
Swish!
With a flash of light, his battered body finally disappeared completely from the teleportation array on the eighth floor!
The light from the teleportation array slowly faded, and the eighth floor returned to silence, leaving only a mess and splattered golden blood as evidence of the terrifying scene that had just unfolded.

The small tower hovered in place, its tentacles swaying gently. After a long silence, it murmured, "The ninth level... Finally... Finally, someone has broken into the ninth level! Could it be that they can truly receive the blessing of the Creator God?"

……

Taiyi Forbidden Zone, the entrance area to the secret treasure vault.

Si You stood quietly in the void, his gaze deep beneath his black robe, fixed on the slowly rotating door of the treasure vault.

As time passed, beams of light began to shoot out from the vortex, transforming into figures.

It was those newly appointed powerful figures who entered the lower and middle levels to select treasures.

Most of them wore excited and satisfied smiles, clearly quite pleased with their gains.

Anything that can be included in the secret treasure vault is of high quality.

Even for those in the lower and middle classes, the same applies.

For example, treasures such as the Yata no Kagami (Eight-Span Mirror) and the Kusanagi sword of the Amaterasu no Kami Ryuzawa family both came from a secret treasure vault.

With just these few treasures, the Longze family was able to occupy a place among the Ten Great God Thrones for tens of millions of years.

However, Si You's gaze never left the area at the very core of the vortex.

That is where the guiding light to the top should appear.

Time ticked by, and the final three-hour deadline drew ever closer.

The other powerful figures at the Divine Throne have all emerged, but the two guiding lights representing the top level have yet to make a move.

In other words, neither Long Fei nor Ling Zhan, the two who entered the top-level area, returned.

"It seems that the treasures on the top floor are indeed not so easy to obtain."

A cold voice rang out beside Si You, "Du Ze, it's not like Lord Wu Zhao was the only one who managed to seize the opportunity from within all this time."

Si You turned her head slightly and looked at a figure that had appeared beside her at some point.

This person was also dressed in the uniform of the captain of the Silent Guard, but the patterns on his shoulder armor were more ancient and intricate. He wore a pure white mask without any number on his face, and his aura was extremely restrained, as if he had merged with the surrounding void.

She was the number one captain among the Silent Guards, second only to her in rank.

In this challenge for the God Throne ranking, Number 1 did not make a move, nor did he even show up.

But Ling Zhan is only number 2, so obviously, the strength of this number 1 is probably even more unfathomable.

"Number 1, do you think they can succeed?"

Si You's voice was devoid of emotion.

Captain Number 1 remained silent for a moment, his gaze beneath the pure white mask seemingly piercing through the void, landing deep within the starlight vortex: "Long Fei is a man with an endless array of trump cards, and his cunning is profound; he cannot be judged by ordinary standards. As for Ling Zhan… he is the product of an 'accident,' and his potential is unfathomable. If the two of them join forces, perhaps… they might truly create a miracle."

"A miracle? No matter how miraculous it is, it probably can't exceed the eighth floor of that tower."

Si You snorted coldly and continued, "If they can bring something out, that would be a good thing. If they can't... it doesn't matter. The important thing is that Ling Zhan must come out alive. Although he is just a substitute, he can still be a backup option."

Captain Number 1 nodded slightly: "Lord Siyou, rest assured, everything is under control. Even if something unexpected happens to them inside the tower, we have follow-up preparations."

Si You nodded, said no more, and turned his gaze back to the silent core of the vortex.

There are less than a quarter of an hour left until the three-hour deadline.

Soon, she will find out what kind of opportunity these two people obtained on the top floor of that secret treasure vault.

(PS: Just a heads-up, my grandma received a critical condition notice from the hospital a couple of days ago, saying she might be nearing the end and only has a few days left. If she really does pass away peacefully, the funeral arrangements will definitely take several days, so updates might not be on time. It might be this afternoon, or it might be this evening. I'll try my best to keep updating.) (End of Chapter)
