I am the Thunder Emperor in the fight

In the dark sea, the atmosphere suddenly froze.

The Night Falcon and the Night Emperor faced each other from a distance of a thousand feet.

The test was over, and the spiritual energy around the two began to surge in completely different ways.

"Night Falcon, I never expected such a genius to emerge in our clan. However, since this concerns the inheritance of the Night God Ancient Body, I will absolutely not hold back!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Tianzi looked at Ye Jun, slowly raised his right hand, and slightly spread his five fingers.

His movements were unhurried, as if he were not preparing for a life-or-death battle, but rather enjoying tea and flowers.

However, with this simple action of his, the entire dark sea suddenly boiled!
Rumble!
Centered on him, the darkness within a radius of ten thousand feet was stirred up by an invisible giant hand, spinning, compressing, and condensing wildly!
In the blink of an eye, a giant dragon formed from the purest dark essence roared out of the vortex!

The dragon was thousands of feet long, its entire body as black as ink, with every scale clearly visible and every line flowing with ancient runes.

It opened its massive jaws and swooped down fiercely at the night falcon!

Wherever the dragon's mouth passed, space shattered, time seemed to stand still, and a terrifying suction force capable of swallowing the heavens and the earth descended!

Night Falcon's pupils contracted slightly. The power of this attack was more than ten times stronger than that casual punch before!
He did not back down, but suddenly formed a hand seal, and dark spiritual power surged wildly around him!
"Shadow Truth, Devouring the Abyss!"

A massive dark vortex appeared above his head, its center incredibly deep and radiating an equally terrifying devouring power!

The two colossal beasts collided violently in mid-air!
Rumble!
The violent shockwave swept in all directions, tearing the surrounding dark sea into cracks thousands of feet long!

The dragon and the vortex were tearing, devouring, and annihilating each other, with each collision unleashing a deafening roar powerful enough to shatter the stars!

After a three-breath stalemate, the dragon exploded with a deafening roar, and the vortex shattered along with it!
The Night Falcon grunted, its body flying backward a hundred feet, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of its mouth. The Night Emperor, on the other hand, only took three steps back.

"Not bad." Night Emperor said calmly, "To be able to withstand a blow from 30% of my power head-on, you are stronger than I imagined."

Thirty percent?!
Night Falcon's heart tightened.

Such a terrifying attack, and it was only 30% of the opponent's power?!

But there was no fear in his eyes; instead, his fighting spirit burned even more fiercely.

He raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and said in a low voice, "Since that's the case, then I'll show you my strength!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he clasped his hands together, and the spiritual energy around him suddenly collapsed inward!
"Dark Ancestral Symbol, activate!"

boom!
An indescribable terrifying aura erupted from the depths of his body!

The sheer vastness, purity, and antiquity of that aura far surpassed any power he had previously displayed!

That is the true origin of the Dark Ancestral Symbol, his greatest trump card that he has kept hidden until now!
Countless jet-black runes appeared out of thin air around the Night Falcon, densely covering his entire body.

These runes share the same origin as the Dark Ancestral Rune, and each one contains terrifying power enough to suppress an ordinary Great Perfection cultivator!
His aura surged to a new level in that instant.

Although it was still at the Great Perfection of the Earthly Sovereign level, the quality of its spiritual power was clearly incomparable to what it had been before!

A truly solemn expression finally appeared in Ye Tianzi's black, abyss-like eyes.

“Such powerful dark energy.” He said slowly, his tone carrying a hint of undisguised surprise: “Moreover, it’s not just simple dark energy, but… the true origin.”

The night falcon did not respond.

He suddenly opened his eyes, and his pure black eyes had now completely transformed into two bottomless vortexes, slowly rotating as if they could devour everything!
He raised his right hand, his five fingers loosely clenched!

"Dark Ancestral Symbol, Dark Judgment!"

hum!
A beam of light, as black as ink and as thin as a hair, shot out from his fingertips!

The light was so fine that it was almost invisible, yet it contained a terrifying will that could judge all things and end everything!
Wherever it passes, space is silently annihilated, time seems to stand still, and all darkness is brutally torn apart by its power!

Upon seeing this, the Night Emperor's expression changed drastically!

The power of this attack was enough to threaten him!
He held back no longer and suddenly formed a hand seal!

"Colossus of Night, activate!"

boom!
The void behind him suddenly tore open, and a phantom figure thousands of feet tall slowly emerged!

The phantom resembled his face, but was more majestic, more ancient, and more terrifying.

This is an unparalleled divine power!
The phantom of the Night God raised its giant hand and pressed down on the beam of judgment!
The moment the palm collides with the light!
No sound.

It was as if all sound had been lost in the world.

Only a blinding, all-consuming darkness suddenly expanded and spread from the point of impact!
Wherever the darkness passed, everything was erased, even the Sea of ​​Darkness itself was forcibly evaporated into a void area ten thousand feet in diameter!

The darkness lasted for a full three breaths.

Three breaths later, it slowly dissipated. The Night Falcon was sent flying hundreds of feet backward, panting heavily, its face paling slightly. Clearly, it hadn't gained much of an advantage in this clash.

The Night Emperor was also having a hard time.

The thousand-foot-tall phantom behind him had become illusory and transparent, almost disappearing.

A trickle of jet-black blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and for the first time, genuine shock and fear appeared in his eyes.

Outside the secret realm, on the main viewing platform, there was a deathly silence.

When the Night Falcon unleashed that Judgment Ray, countless people were so shocked that they stood up!
When the beam of light collided with the phantom behind the Night Emperor, unleashing a darkness powerful enough to obliterate everything, countless people stared wide-eyed, their mouths agape enough to fit eggs!

When the light faded and blood was seen trickling from the corner of the Night Emperor's mouth, the entire viewing area erupted in a deafening gasp!

"Night Emperor...is injured?!"

"The Night Falcon actually injured the Night Emperor?!"

"What kind of power is that?! That light... I only glanced at it, and I felt like my soul was being torn apart!"

"A fierce battle between dragons and tigers! It truly is a fierce battle between dragons and tigers! I never imagined that the Night Falcon could fight the Night Emperor to this extent!"

"I think this is the end of it. Night Emperor's true strength is that of a half-step Heavenly Sovereign, which is incomparable to that Night Falcon."

In an instant, countless powerful members of the Black Sky Ancient Clan looked at each other and began to whisper among themselves.

……

"Well done... Night Falcon."

While countless powerful figures outside the secret realm were in shock, Night Emperor looked at Night Falcon and slowly spoke, his voice hoarse: "Among the younger generation who could injure me, you are the first."

In the dark sea, the Night Emperor slowly straightened up.

He wiped away the trace of black blood from the corner of his mouth, and for the first time, a genuine look of seriousness appeared in his dark, hole-like eyes.

“Next,” his voice was low and calm, yet carried a chilling pressure, “you are worthy of my full strength.”

As soon as he finished speaking, his aura suddenly changed!
boom!
A terrifying pressure far exceeding that of a Great Perfection Earthly Sovereign erupted like a giant beast that had been dormant for ten thousand years!

The aura was so powerful that it forced the surrounding dark sea back tens of thousands of feet, creating an absolute vacuum zone!

Half-step Heavenly Supreme!
The night falcon's pupils contracted slightly.

Although he had suspected it beforehand, when this aura truly descended, he still felt a pressure originating from his life instincts.

That was the crushing power of realms, the gap in levels, the insurmountable chasm between the Great Perfection and the Heavenly Sovereign!
At this moment, feeling the incredibly powerful aura emanating from Night Emperor, Night Falcon's expression also became solemn. Half-step Heavenly Sovereign, coupled with the former's profound foundation, his combat power is probably comparable to some ordinary Spirit-grade Heavenly Sovereigns!
This Night Emperor truly deserves to be called the strongest genius in the history of the Black Sky Ancient Clan. Even among the current five great ancient clans, he can be considered one of the top existences!
The Night Emperor hovered in the void, his body radiating a faint dark golden light.

At that moment, his figure seemed to grow incredibly tall and majestic, like a true god looking down at the night falcons below.

"You have every right to be proud of yourself for forcing me to this point." His voice, like the might of heaven, echoed throughout the entire dark sea as he spoke indifferently.

"But... that's all for now."

Night Falcon took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart.

He looked up and met those black, hole-like eyes.

"A half-step Heavenly Supreme..." he murmured, a cold smile curving his lips: "Just as I thought."

He slowly closed his eyes.

The next moment, his mind sank into the deepest part of the Supreme Sea.

There, the Dark Ancestral Symbol floated silently, emitting a faint glow.

But deeper within this ancestral symbol lies a seal that has never been opened.

This is a safety net; once activated, the true power of the Dark Ancestral Symbol will be fully unleashed!

In the past, he was cautious in his words and actions and disguised his identity, but now, facing the Night God Ancient Body so close at hand, he no longer needed to disguise himself.

"Dark Ancestral Symbol... Release!"

The night falcon suddenly opened its eyes!

In those pure black eyes, it was as if billions of stars were exploding at the same time!

An equally terrifying aura erupted from his body! (End of Chapter)
