After the Skyfall

Chapter 997 Chaos Divine Power
Heavenly Thunder Department.

The Heavenly King of Divine Punishment traveled a great distance, concealing his identity, and finally arrived. He contacted his former colleagues in the Thunder Department, requested an audience with a Thunder Emperor, and expressed his desire for protection to the Thunder Emperor.

"Divine Punishment King, you shall remain in the Thunder Department and not return to the Celestial Clan. The Heavenly Emperors of all the powerful clans in the Heavenly Realm have now issued imperial decrees to exterminate all the Celestial Clan cultivators. Your Celestial Kingdom of the Seventh Heaven has been breached, and all your clansmen have perished."

Yuanpeng Leidi sighed at this moment: "Although I don't know how you escaped from the Heavenly Venerable Secret Realm, the other Heavenly Emperors are investigating that Heavenly King named Taiyi. He seems to be hiding some incredible secrets, and he has probably taken away most of the Heavenly God Clan's treasure trove."

"Although the Thunder Department did not participate in this matter, given the general trend, the Thunder Department could only stand by and watch. However, the Celestial Clan cannot protect you, but protecting you, the Heavenly King of the Thunder Department, is not a problem."

Although the Heavenly King of Divine Punishment was somewhat prepared, he was still very disappointed by the answer. However, he did not give up and said, "Thunder Emperor, could you allow some of the Heavenly Kings of the Heavenly God Clan to join the Thunder Department, so that at least the bloodline of the Heavenly God Clan would not be cut off?"

Yuanpeng Leidi shook his head: "No."

After being repeatedly rejected, the Heavenly King of Divine Punishment understood the Thunder Department's meaning. He left the place dejectedly, not seeking refuge with the Thunder Department, but instead searching for his people in other places, doing his utmost to save them with his own power.

But just as Yuanpeng Leidi said, the powerful clans of the Heavenly Realm have dispatched many experts to hunt down the Heavenly Gods.

At this moment, a battle of king-level strength broke out in a desolate place outside Sunset City.

The Divine Might Heavenly King stationed on the Boundary Ship has been targeted. He was attacked by ten Heavenly Kings and is currently fleeing in a sorry state. However, those chasing them are not ordinary Heavenly Kings, but experts from various powerful clans.

One against ten, there is no chance of victory.

“Divine King, do not struggle. Your divine emperors have perished, and the kingdom of the gods has been destroyed. Why should a remnant like you remain in this world? Wouldn’t it be better to turn to dust sooner?” A demon king said coldly.

The Divine King remained silent, only continuing to flee.

He knew that his most important task now was to survive. As long as he lived, the bloodline of the Celestial Race would not be cut off, and after surviving this great purge, there might still be a chance for him to rise again in the future.

But the ten Heavenly Kings pursued relentlessly, and in just a moment they were surrounded and had nowhere to escape.

"Since death is inevitable anyway, I'll take a few Heavenly Kings with me today!" Godly King roared, instantly manifesting his divine body and burning his divine blood in a desperate fight.

"Does one person think they can defy the heavens?" The ten Heavenly Kings joined forces to attack, intending to kill their opponent in the shortest possible time.

I thought this battle would end quickly, without any suspense.

However, just as the Divine King was seriously injured and about to die, a faint imperial light suddenly slashed from afar, sweeping across the entire battlefield.

"What? Teiko?"

The ten Heavenly Kings were shocked by this scene. Before they could react, three of them were struck by the imperial light and died instantly.

"What a joke! Does the Celestial Race still have a God Emperor in existence?"

"It's not a God Emperor. The imperial light is very weak. The one who made the move is a Heavenly King, and a Heavenly King who has condensed imperial light. Oh no, it's the remnants of the Heavenly God Clan coming to our aid."

"The enemy is very strong. We cannot linger in battle. We must retreat."

With a single strike, three Heavenly Kings were annihilated. The remaining people dared not linger and quickly scattered in all directions.

After they left, a female celestial king from the Celestial Race arrived from the distant horizon, walking with the World Step. She glanced at them and said, "This place is not safe to stay any longer. Come with me."

The Divine Might Heavenly King, covered in blood and severely injured, showed a slight change in expression upon seeing the female Heavenly King.

rumor.

When the emperors attacked and destroyed the Kingdom of the Gods, the Heavenly King Taiyi used some means to take a group of his people away from the Seventh Heaven and disappeared without a trace. I thought this rumor was false.

However, upon seeing this female Heavenly King, the Divine Might Heavenly King was now completely convinced.

"Where is Taiyi? How many members of the Celestial Clan are still alive?" Divine Might Heavenly King followed him away, but couldn't help asking along the way.

"This is confidential, I cannot disclose it." The female superstar directly and decisively refused to reveal any information.

Taiyi's matter concerns the future of the remaining members of the Celestial Clan. Moreover, Taiyi is currently in seclusion, attempting to break through to the God Emperor realm. No one can reveal even a hint of this, otherwise it will attract murderous intent, which would be troublesome.

The Divine King's gaze flickered slightly, but he stopped asking questions. He understood that all the powerful clans were attacking the Celestial Clan, and Taiyi's existence involved many secrets that indeed needed to be kept strictly confidential.

Just when the external situation was changing unpredictably.

The depths of the Sea of ​​Ruins.

Within the Imperial Furnace of Time, Yin and Yang energies permeated the air, the Qi of the Nine Heavens rose, and five-colored rays of light shone. Various incredible phenomena frequently occurred.

But where the strange phenomenon was shrouded, a giant stood, his body shimmering with 365 rays of light. All the mystical gates of the universe were open, and with the help of the power of creation, Li Yi turned the impossible into the possible.

His divine blood flowed abundantly within his wondrous gate, bringing him to the very end of the Celestial Clan's cultivation path. The power of the universe coalesced, and Li Yi's entire body began to radiate imperial light—a light unique to him. It seemed that with just one more leap forward, he could break through to a higher realm and become a God Emperor.

However, Li Yi discovered a better path, so he did not want to break through to the God Emperor level at this moment. Instead, he used the Time Emperor Furnace to refine his acupoints, circulate the Qi of his five internal organs, absorb and exhale the power of Yin and Yang, and transform it into Chaos Divine Power.

Within a wondrous gate, divine blood surged and five-colored light shimmered. A stream of Yin and Yang energies rushed into the furnace of time and mingled and interacted in a profound manner.

The purple divine blood began to transform, evolving into a trace of chaotic aura. As soon as this aura appeared, the Time Emperor Furnace trembled, as if foreshadowing the birth of a new path to Heavenly Venerable.

"The path ahead is clear! Chaos God Power, appear!" Li Yi, transformed into a giant, roared within the Emperor's Furnace, using the power of creation to transform decay into wonder, and finally crossed that barrier.

The divine blood and magical power within the wondrous gate vanished completely, leaving only a chaotic vortex, as if the universe had been born, and a chaotic divine power transcending even the Heavenly King appeared.

As the first wisp of chaotic divine power appeared, Li Yi's body underwent another incredible change. His divine body was shrinking continuously, and at the same time, the chaotic divine power began to erode other mystical gates.

Without even deliberate cultivation, the magical power and divine blood within the second, third, and fourth wondrous gates all began to evolve in this direction.

"Good, very good. The power of creation refined from the blood of the Celestial Venerable helped me through the most critical moment. Now all I need to do is cultivate step by step."

At this moment, Li Yi felt joy, and at the same time, the mystical gate within his body began to rapidly transform.

Once all 365 wondrous gates are transformed into chaotic divine power, he will become an unprecedented Heavenly Emperor-level powerhouse.

Time passed year after year.

The Emperor Furnace of Time began to fall silent, but the Heavenly Venerable Blood, Nine Heavens Divine Water, and Yin-Yang Qi in Li Yi's hands were being consumed at a frenzied pace.

The consumption of such resources is staggering; even a god-emperor could not afford to support it.

Fortunately, Li Yi received funding from the Celestial Clan this time; otherwise, his cultivation would not have been so easy.

A thousand years passed in the blink of an eye within the Imperial Furnace of Time.

But in the outside world, only a hundred days have passed. For a cultivator, this amount of time is nothing, and for many people, it's just the time it takes to sleep.

However, on this very day, a divine thought flew out from the Emperor Furnace of Time, instantly startling the two old Heavenly Kings of the Celestial Clan who were guarding the furnace.

"The Heavenly King Taiyi is on his way to the God Emperor realm, but he needs resources to accelerate his cultivation." The two old Heavenly Kings were shocked after receiving this divine thought.

They had previously used up a million catties of Nine Heavens Divine Water in one go, could it have been used up already?
Or is it that King Taiyi is trying to use this opportunity to line his own pocket?

However, this idea only appeared briefly before being rejected by the two old Heavenly Kings, who could sense that the Nine Heavens Qi within the Time Emperor Furnace was indeed not as surging as before.

"On this return to the Heavenly Realm, to be on the safe side, I only provided King Taiyi with two million catties of Nine Heavens Divine Water. I thought that would be enough, but I didn't expect that breaking through to the God Emperor would consume so much. I only have two hundred thousand catties left in my Imperial Palace. But this is my personal stockpile, not something from the treasury. What about you?" an old Heavenly King asked the other party.

Another person said, "My imperial palace is also out of stock; we gave it all away before."

"I'll use my own to tide me over first, and by the way, I'll ask Taiyi if I can go back again to get some more resources?" The old Heavenly King threw his 200,000 catties of Nine Heavens Divine Water into the Emperor Furnace of Time, and left his information at the same time.

soon.

One of Li Yi's clones emerged from the Time Emperor Furnace, his expression grim: "You have disappointed me greatly. While I am cultivating, you are not providing enough resources. What were your plans in the beginning?"

"King Taiyi, we miscalculated. Two million catties of Nine Heavens Divine Water should have been enough for you to break through your realm. We didn't expect it to consume so much." The old king said with shame.

Li Yi's clone said, "Right now, we're not cultivating slowly and methodically, but racing against time to break through to the God Emperor realm in the shortest possible time. Naturally, the resources consumed are enormous. To be stingy at this point is simply foolish. Forget it, I won't argue with you. Come with me on this cross-realm journey to retrieve the Nine Heavens Divine Water."

He didn't waste time criticizing the two old Heavenly Kings. Instead, he used the knife coins to take the two of them back across the realm and retrieve another batch of resources from the Heavenly Treasury.

This time, these old fogies were really determined, taking a full ten million catties of the Nine Heavens Divine Water in one go.

Only the Celestial Clan, with its vast wealth and powerful resources, could accumulate such wealth. Even if Hua Qing, a rogue cultivator, sold himself a hundred times, he still couldn't raise that much.

When ten million catties of Nine Heavens Divine Water were poured into the Time Emperor Furnace in one go, the Qi of the Nine Heavens instantly boiled, the Time Emperor Furnace trembled, and the Yin and Yang energies, accompanied by precious light, pierced through the Sea of ​​Return to Nothingness and soared straight into the sky.

"Oh no, we've made too much noise."

The two former Heavenly Kings turned pale upon seeing this.

That was too reckless.

Although the Nine Heavens Divine Water is good, the sheer amount of it would unleash an enormous amount of energy. Even if the Time Emperor Furnace could withstand it, the dissipated power would no longer be able to easily conceal its whereabouts.

We can only pray that this place is remote enough that the Heavenly Emperor won't come to patrol here.
