Fights Break Sphere: Purple Thunder Emperor

Chapter 440 The Appearance of an Emperor-Grade Embryo Pill
"Click——"

"Kaka——"

The massive stone gate emitted a teeth-grinding creaking sound, like rotten wood breaking, and trembled violently under the immense power of the ancient jade light.

The ancient patterns on the stone gate, which had been flickering, were now flashing wildly, as unstable as an overloaded circuit.

Everyone in the underground space felt their hearts pound with the tremor.

Xiao Bai was extremely nervous, his palms were slightly sweaty, and he stared intently at the door. He hadn't expected that the incomplete Emperor Jade would cause such a commotion at the stone door.

If the stone gate were opened now, too many variables would arise, which is not what he wants to see.

The Soul Emperor's eyes burned with intense heat, almost bursting forth. His entire body surged with energy, ready to rush into the cave at the first moment.

Lei Ying, Yan Jin, and Yao Dan were also surrounded by fighting spirit, like taut bowstrings, just waiting for the door to open.

However, at this moment when everyone was eagerly anticipating the moment and the atmosphere was extremely tense—

"Boom!!!"

A deep, resounding boom, like the beating of a giant drum, suddenly came from inside the stone gate!

The sound did not come from the vibration of the stone gate itself, but from inside it!
It was as if some enormous creature inside the cave was ramming against the inside of the door!

The violent tremor caused the entire underground space to shake, making Xiao Bai feel unsteady on his feet.

Everyone tensed up, but then their faces showed expressions of surprise and uncertainty.

This commotion...something's not right!

Although the gate was trembling violently and the two tightly closed stone doors kept creaking, there was no sign of it opening inwards or outwards.

The loud thuds grew heavier and more urgent with each one, filled with a kind of long-suppressed rage and urgency. Clearly, someone inside was frantically attacking the door, trying to break it down!

"There's someone inside?!"

Yan Jin gasped in shock, his crimson eyes filled with disbelief.

"Could it be... that Emperor Tuoshegu is not dead?"

Yao Dan's face turned pale, and his voice trembled slightly. If it really was a Dou Di himself inside, wouldn't their trip be like walking into a trap?

Lei Ying's eyes also flashed with lightning as he looked at Gu Yuan: "Brother Gu, this..."

A glint flashed in Gu Yuan's eyes as he instantly recalled the information Xiao Bai had previously revealed—

That Emperor-grade embryonic pill!

His cultivation level is comparable to that of the strongest person below the Dou Di level, so he must have already developed intelligence and his strength is terrifying!
He instantly realized that this was not the resurrection of an ancient emperor, but rather the desire of the imperial core to break free!
It seems that Xiao Bai's words were true!

The fervor on the Soul Emperor's face cooled slightly, his brows furrowed as he stared intently at the stone gate.

The aura emanating from that thing inside sent a chill down his spine, even through the stone door!
Just as everyone's thoughts were racing, another unexpected event occurred!
Under the continuous bombardment from within and the energy impact of the seven ancient jade orbs transformed into light from the outside, the massive stone gate gradually began to become illusory and transparent!

As if transforming from a physical entity into an energy body, the patterns on the stone gate flowed as if dissolving, revealing the blurry scene behind it.

Everyone's gaze instantly pierced through the increasingly transparent "door," fixed intently on the interior.

Behind the door lay a hazy and vast space, filled with ancient mist.

In the center of the mist, a figure stood tall, repeatedly swinging his fist with earth-shattering energy, slamming it against the fading inner wall of the stone gate!
The figure's face was indistinct, but its features were strikingly prominent—

A head of long, multicolored hair that leaps and dances like flames!
And that supreme aura that, even through the gate, could be sensed as something above all things in heaven and earth, causing all the Dou Sheng present to tremble in their souls!
"Tuoshegudi?!"

The Candle Kun hidden in Xiao Bai's sleeve suddenly trembled, and a soul transmission exploded in Xiao Bai's heart, carrying violent fluctuations and uncontrollable anger and hatred!

That figure, that head of colorful hair, that aura...

He was exactly the same as the Tuoshegudi he had seen ten thousand years ago who had trapped him here!
The humiliation and anger of being imprisoned for thousands of years instantly overwhelmed his reason. His dragon body trembled, and his terrifying aura almost exploded out of control!
Xiao Bai felt the destructive energy about to burst forth from his sleeve and was suddenly startled!
"Uncle Zhu! Calm down! That's not the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe! It's that Emperor Pill! It's the pill that has transformed into the appearance of the Ancient Emperor!"

Xiao Bai hurriedly shouted in his mind, his voice like thunder exploding in Zhu Kun's restless soul.

Zhu Kun's imminent burst of powerful momentum suddenly froze.

"A pill... a medicinal pill?"

He repeated it somewhat blankly, his raging anger as if it had been doused with a bucket of ice water.

Reminded by Xiao Bai, he carefully sensed again and indeed found that although the figure's aura was incomparably powerful and carried the might of an emperor, it was very superficial and lacked the profound and vast feeling of the real Tuoshe Ancient Emperor in his memory, and it was also less harmonious and free.

"Yes, it's a fledgling Emperor-grade pill! It's extremely intelligent and has transformed into the form of its creator, which it knows best, trying to break free!"

Xiao Bai quickly explained, letting out a long sigh of relief, but a cold sweat broke out on his back.

That was close! If he had been even a fraction slower, Zhu Kun's aura would have been fully unleashed, and his little concealment technique would have been completely ineffective in hiding a late-stage Nine-Star Dou Sheng!

Relaxed, Xiao Bai turned his gaze back to the increasingly illusory gate.

Now it seems that this stone gate, which appears to be a physical object, is actually an energy restriction set up by the ancient emperor Tuoshe using supreme means. It is both the entrance to the cave and the core seal that traps Zhukun!

Now that the seven jades are merging to break the seal, and the internal imperial core is attacking frantically, the restriction is rapidly collapsing under the pressure from both inside and outside!
Thinking of this, a thought struck him, and he quickly transmitted his voice again:

"Uncle Zhu! Quick! While the Emperor-grade embryonic pill is attacking the gate's restrictions with all its might from inside, quickly sense whether the restrictions binding you have loosened?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Kun's dragon eyes flashed with an unprecedented brilliance.

He concentrated all his attention, carefully sensing the invisible shackles binding the dragon's soul and body.

In just a moment, an indescribable joy surged into his heart!

“It works! It really works!”

Zhu Kun's voice trembled with immense excitement.

“Every attack from that Emperor Pill seems to shake the very foundation of this entire restrictive array! The invisible forces that were originally binding me like iron chains are rapidly becoming weaker and looser! Xiao Bai, you're right! Today is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! I… I feel that I will soon be able to completely break free from this damned cage! Hahahaha!”

He wasn't very confident about escaping initially, but now, as long as Teidan keeps bombarding him, he'll be able to break free soon.

Meanwhile, the Soul Emperor's pupils contracted slightly as he looked at the colorful figure behind the door, which exuded an aura that made even him feel uneasy.

The aura emanating from that figure had already subtly transcended the realm of a peak nine-star Dou Sheng, carrying a hint of the essence he had longed for!
"nothingness!"

The Soul Emperor suddenly turned around, his voice transmission carrying a barely suppressed rage.

"Who is that?! Why have you never mentioned that there is such a powerful person in the cave?!"

He felt as if he had been kept in the dark by the Void Devouring Flame, which concealed crucial information from him.

If he had known earlier that such a terrifying entity existed inside, he would have definitely had to adjust his plans.

The black flames surrounding Void Devouring Flame rippled slightly. Facing the Soul Emperor's questioning, he seemed largely unfazed, calmly replying:

"That is your ultimate goal this time, the Emperor-grade embryonic pill."

"A fledgling Emperor-grade pill?!"

The Soul Emperor was startled, and suddenly turned his head to look at the colorful figure again, an expression of disbelief appearing on his face for the first time.

A single pill... could be so powerful?

Did it even make him feel threatened?

But the next moment, unparalleled ecstasy and fervor instantly replaced the astonishment and doubt!
Such a powerful Emperor-grade embryonic pill, once obtained and consumed, could potentially lead to a breakthrough to the Dou Di realm! This further strengthened his resolve to obtain this pill.

Don't miss out!

As the stone gate grew increasingly illusory, and the Emperor-grade embryonic core seemed about to break free from its seal, a resolute glint flashed in the eyes of the Soul Emperor.

He couldn't wait any longer!

"Help it break down the door!"

With a low shout, the Soul Emperor shot out, his body radiating blood-red light. His vast battle aura swept out like a boundless ocean, condensing into a thousand-foot-long blood-red palm print capable of tearing through space. Carrying destructive power, it slammed fiercely into the stone door that had become semi-transparent!
"boom--!!!"

A deafening roar erupted as the energy storm raged once more.

The Emperor-grade embryonic core inside was stunned to see that someone was assisting it outside the door, and that the person was standing with the Void Devouring Flame. It was overjoyed at first!

It naturally recognized Void Devouring Flame. Seeing that he had indeed come as promised and had brought a good helper, the violence and urgency in its heart caused by the long imprisonment instantly transformed into even stronger power!
"Break it for me!"

The "Tushe Ancient Emperor," formed from the Emperor-grade embryonic pill, let out a muffled yet incredibly majestic roar. His long, colorful hair danced wildly, and his fist gathered an even more dazzling seven-colored light, working in tandem with the Soul Emperor's blood-red palm print, simultaneously striking the same point on the stone gate!
"Om-!"

The stone gate trembled violently, its illusory speed suddenly increased, and the surface patterns faded and disintegrated rapidly, like melting ice and snow.

The entire barrier seems to be on the verge of collapse!

"Ancient clan chief?!"

Upon seeing this, the three clan leaders, Lei Ying, Yan Jin, and Yao Dan, were immediately shocked.

The Soul Emperor actually took the initiative to help the mysterious powerhouse inside break the seal?
Does he know that person?

They all looked at Gu Yuan, awaiting his decision.

Should we stop the Soul Emperor, or join the attack and open the cave as soon as possible?

Gu Yuan's eyes flashed rapidly. He glanced at the seven-colored ancient jade light cluster floating atop the illusory gate, its light growing ever brighter due to the impact of internal and external energies, and slowly rotating. He then recalled Xiao Bai's earlier telepathic message—

"Uncle Gu, no matter what, prioritize seizing the Fusion Jade!"

He made a decision instantly.

Gu Yuan shook his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "Observe the situation and be on guard!"

He chose to trust Xiao Bai's judgment.

If the Soul Clan and Emperor Dan already knew each other, there would be no use in him going up now.

Xiao Bai seemed to value the fused ancient jade very much. The fused ancient jade must have some important function. So now he was not in a hurry to rush up, but to seize the opportunity and take the most crucial thing!
Seeing Gu Yuan's decision, Lei Ying and the other two were anxious, but they could only suppress their anxiety and focus their fighting spirit on the situation, especially the movements of Soul Emperor and Void Devouring Flame.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The combined attack of the Soul Emperor and the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator intensified, and the stone door became as transparent as a thin film of water, making the scene behind it clearly visible.

It was a vast square with countless pillars standing on it, and in the center there seemed to be a towering stone statue.

"Strange fire?!"

Everyone's eyes widened in surprise. At the top of each of those thick pillars was a flickering flame, each with a different color and shape.

This was the first time they had ever seen so many strange flames!

If you count them, you can find almost all the strange flames on the ranking list on those pillars.

"It's now……"

Just then, a deafening dragon roar, seemingly from the primordial era, suddenly exploded out!
"Roar--!!!"

The power accumulated over ten thousand years erupted without reservation at this moment!

The dragon's roar contained supreme majesty, the rage of being imprisoned for millennia, and the ecstatic joy of being about to break free.

The sound waves spread out as if they were tangible, instantly overwhelming all the energy roars and the sound of the stone gate shattering!

Amidst everyone's horrified gazes, a purple-gold light shot into the sky from Xiao Bai's sleeve!

The light surged with the wind, instantly transforming into a colossal creature tens of thousands of feet long!

Its entire body is covered with purple-gold dragon scales, each scale the size of a shield, shimmering with a cold, metallic luster and a noble, magnificent purple-gold light.

The enormous dragon's body coiled and twisted, almost filling half of the underground space. On its ferocious dragon head, a pair of eyes as bright as the sun burned with raging golden flames, looking down at the people below.

Dragon clan!

Late stage of Nine-Star Dou Sheng!

Moreover, he is a peak-level Nine-Star Dou Sheng in the late stage!

This terrifying aura, as vast as the sea of ​​stars and as domineering as the sea, swept out like a tsunami, causing everyone except Gu Yuan and Hun Tiandi, including Xu Wu Tun Yan, to feel their breath catch in their throats, and an uncontrollable awe and fear surged from the depths of their souls!
"This is."

The three clan leaders, Lei Ying, Yan Jin, and Yao Dan, were dumbfounded, their jaws nearly dropping to the ground.

They stared in utter shock at the colossal purple-gold dragon that blotted out the sky, then abruptly turned their gaze to Xiao Bai beside them.

This terrifying being...

Just now……

It actually flew out from this young man's sleeve?!

Recalling Xiao Bai's earlier words about a "mysterious senior" and "gifting of essence blood," the three instantly "understood" it!

It turns out that the so-called "senior" was actually the giant dragon imprisoned here!
On the other side, the Soul Emperor recovered from the shock of the dragon's might and immediately locked his gaze on Xiao Bai like a venomous snake, his face so gloomy it could drip water.

cheated!
I've been completely scammed!
What utter nonsense about a mysterious, vanished expert!
That eighth piece of ancient jade is definitely in the hands of this kid or this dragon!

In fact, this was all a trap set by Gu Yuan and the dragon clan expert!

He glanced at Gu Yuan, who seemed to have expected this and had a calm expression, and his heart sank even further.

No wonder!
No wonder Gu Yuan agreed so readily today!

No wonder he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all!
It turns out he already had such a powerful ally!

Moreover, judging from the appearance of this giant dragon, it is clearly trapped here.

Gu Yuan wanted to use him to work together to break the restriction and release the giant dragon!

"Gu Yuan...you're really good at scheming!"

The Soul Emperor gritted his teeth, a sense of humiliation at being manipulated at will welling up within him.

He realized he had underestimated Gu Yuan. Back then, Gu Yuan hesitated in the matter of Xiao Xuan, which allowed his Soul Clan to succeed.

Who would have thought that a thousand years later, Gu Yuan would become so patient and... insidious!
Void Devouring Flame's eyes twitched, and the black flames around his body suddenly exploded, revealing his extreme inner turmoil.

Almost instinctively, he retreated hastily, distancing himself from the purple-gold dragon that exuded an aura that made him feel extremely dangerous.

He finally understood why Xiao Bai had shown no fear when facing him before, and even had a look in his eyes that seemed to be scrutinizing his prey!

It turns out that this kid actually carries such a powerful Ancient Void Dragon with him!
Thinking about his previous actions, Void Devouring Flame felt a chill run down his spine. His gaze towards Xiao Bai was filled with malice and lingering fear. He even felt that the place he was standing in was not safe, so he hurriedly retreated a distance.
