Covering the sky: Starting from the Golden Crow of the Holy Cliff

Chapter 260 The Difference Between Quasi-Emperor Realm Divine Restrictions, the Divine Court Emerges
With a loud hum, the Divine Court moved!

He was like a god breaking free of his shackles, shrouded in crimson light, moving like a rabbit, his speed was too fast, he could travel tens of millions of light-years in an instant, he did not want to be shrouded in the array diagram, because the reputation of this divine diagram was too great.

When the four swords are combined, they are invincible!
This legend weighs on everyone's mind like a mountain, and even those on the verge of enlightenment cannot ignore it.

With the two forces united and quasi-emperors lined up, this terrifying formation was difficult even for the Divine Court to withstand. However, the final outcome would still be determined by the battle between the peak experts.

With the Empress Dowager by his side, the Emperor knew he absolutely could not fall into the trap; this was the bottom line!
He glanced deeply at the black-haired man with the sword, suppressed his killing intent, and soared into the sky. The moment he stepped into the Sea of ​​Stars, the surrounding area shattered. He was determined to settle things with the Undying Queen.

It's not the final moment yet; there's still a chance to salvage the situation!
"Kill this troublesome woman, and my Emperor Realm cultivation will advance another step. All the enemies who invade today will die!" The Emperor roared in his heart, surrounded by a ten-thousand-foot-long crimson dragon. The flames surged like a vast ocean, and the dragon's bared fangs and claws exuded a transcendent Daoist charm. Its attack power was extremely strong as it charged forward.

The Undying Empress's black hair flowed freely like a waterfall, her body graceful and slender, like a manifestation of the order of heaven. With each strike, a five-colored divine phoenix would rise up, startling the mortal realm. There were indeed wisps of the aura of an emperor spreading out.

Both of them are about to attain enlightenment and have reached the 'end' of the Quasi-Emperor realm. They are unfathomable supreme powerhouses in the eyes of billions of living beings. They were born in different eras, but they meet in this life and engage in a life-or-death battle, like two peerless immortal swords being drawn and clashing, destined to be one of them!
"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, the sun and moon crumbled. Upon closer inspection, it was revealed to be the essence of chaos, containing numerous fragments of stars that shone with the most brilliant light. A world had been shattered by the two of them.

This was a fierce clash. The Emperor was glowing, his spirit and energy highly concentrated. He was all offense and no defense. His first strike was bloody, and the sun and moon were dimmed, the stars and rivers dimmed. All the ancient saints who passed by fled for their lives to avoid the aftershocks.

All the quasi-emperors present knew that the emperor was fighting desperately, trying to force himself into a state of divine prohibition!
Once you reach the Quasi-Emperor realm, the Eight Restrictions no longer apply, because the scope of this realm is too vast. Even those as powerful as the Emperor Venerable or as strong as Wushi and Qingdi cannot possibly fight against eight realms from the Quasi-Emperor level to battle a peak Quasi-Emperor.

If there are still mediocre talents in the Great Sage Realm, they can enter through a combination of chance and abundant resources!

Quasi-Emperors are completely different. Those who can enter this realm, apart from those with the bloodline of ancient emperors, are all amazing talents.

The cultivation in this realm is also very different. It emphasizes enlightenment and cultivates 'invincibility of humanity'. The difference between the two realms is like heaven and earth, far beyond what the minor realms of the Saint Realm can compare to.

Similarly, the divine restrictions of a supreme sage and the divine restrictions of someone about to attain enlightenment are completely different things!

Just like pull-ups, they are not difficult for children and teenagers due to their own weight, but they become difficult as adults and require training and skills...

The closer one gets to the Supreme Emperor Realm, the more terrifying the laws that living beings wield!
As a peak Quasi-Emperor, how easy is it to completely master the Emperor Realm, then surpass it, and reach the profound and divine realm?

For them, the arrival of divine prohibition is always sudden, short-lived, and unpredictable, making it impossible to do as they please. Only a supreme being can maintain it for a long time, which is why Yan Ming is feared.

In this vast world, he is the only quasi-emperor who has achieved several divine prohibition battles!

He was able to quickly enter the realm of profound mystery, launch an earth-shattering attack, and kill a quasi-emperor of the seventh heaven with his body of the third heaven, which shocked the human world!

Thus, he can already be regarded as a royal fire spirit that is returning to its rightful place!

This is also why the Kunlun descendants treated Yan Ming with such high respect, and why Laozi was willing to make the promise to refine the Qilin Golden Elixir.

"Buzz!"

The Phoenix Nest tore through the universe, sending up a vast expanse of flames, like crimson blood swirling around, bursting forth with brilliant light, as if a celestial phoenix was about to be reborn.

"boom!"

Inside, a blurry figure appeared and disappeared. The Undying Queen was transcendent, hiding in the nest. Her primordial spirit flew out, transforming into a phoenix, fighting against the Vermilion Bird. She rushed out into the distance, constantly cutting through stars. The battle was fierce and chilling.

It's not just a battle of primordial spirits, but also a clash of secret techniques!

This light shines everywhere, manifesting throughout the universe!

On that side, one hand holds the universe, refining all things and stars!

The chain of order spread out in all directions, leaving nothing but devastation in its wake. The battle between the Undying Empress and the Emperor was unlikely to be decided in the short term.

Within the Divine Court's territory, Yan Ming remained calm, ancient imperial weapons swirling around him, a terrifying aura gathering within him.

When the emperor left, he did not stop him, but simply watched him go. This blatant "show" caused quite a stir, and many people in the Phoenix Nest army cast strange glances at him.

At least, the female commander under the Empress's command blinked her phoenix eyes, hesitated for a moment, and wanted to speak, but ultimately remained silent.

'What am I doing, actually trying to question that person...' Her chest heaved, her blood almost froze, and a sense of fear and trepidation arose inexplicably.

This is a demon who has fought his way out!

Fortunately, Yan Ming ignored her. His bright, dazzling golden eyes looked down at all the saints, truly exuding the aura of a mythical great cultivator, overlooking the entire world.

If anyone who has cultivated in the Tian Gu Domain (Tian Duan Mountain Range) of the Burial Emperor Star saw this, they would definitely think of the ancient Fire Spirit Monarch.

"let's start."

Yan Ming issued this order, then strolled leisurely towards the central palace complex of the Divine Court, holding the Immortal-Slaying Sword in his hand.

He promised the Empress that he would work together to destroy the Divine Court and suppress the Vermilion Bird, but he did not specify the extent of his promise.

After all, he was only a quasi-emperor who had broken through to the next realm for a few decades, and there was only so much he could do.

It's a kind of helplessness!
The main land of the Divine Court possesses an eternal divine charm, forged from phoenix wood as red as blood. It is scorching to the touch and makes a clanging sound. This wood is now nearly extinct.

This is an ancient celestial palace that the emperor moved from ancient ruins. It is majestic and grand, exuding a strong sense of awe, and is one of the symbols of the divine court.

For thousands of years, no one has dared to make a sound here; this is the highest place of the divine court!

But things are different today!
The battle was so fierce that it shook the heavens and the influence of the war spread far and wide, causing chaos in every part of the starry sky. Powerful beings were everywhere, charging and fighting, and laws rained down like rain.

Even the Great Sage would be quickly overwhelmed in such a battle. The myth of the strong is easily shattered in such a grand battle because there are many heroes standing side by side and no weaklings. The Phoenix Nest has a very deep foundation.

In the years since her birth, the Heavenly Queen has manifested herself. As the 'successor' of the ancient gods, she has a strong appeal, and many powerful clans are willing to submit to her.

Only a quasi-emperor can stand alone in this mortal world on such a battlefield!
The grand formation for hunting the Vermilion Bird was not set up. Zhuyin, Dark Kunpeng, and Zhen Mi dispersed and pushed in other directions.

Jiang Yifei, along with other powerful figures, joined forces to kill various powerful figures from the Divine Court. This force had a great number of Great Saints, and the Emperor had cultivated many useful weapons over the years of conquest.

Huo Lin'er, Dao Yi, and others also made a fleeting appearance in the crowd. They were already Great Sages. As time went by, the dark power within them was officially activated, and their cultivation improved rapidly.

"Withdraw, assemble at the forbidden area." As the smoke drifted, a person of immense power and extremely high status appeared in the Divine Court. She was the Emperor's Daoist consort and the mother of the Crown Prince of the Divine Court.

As the wife of a peak Quasi-Emperor, the Emperor has been doing his best to help her, hoping to push her into the Quasi-Emperor realm. If successful, a family with two Quasi-Emperors would be a wonderful story, and the Divine Court would also have one more Vice-Ruler.

However, reaching the Quasi-Emperor realm is difficult; that realm is too profound. Even though the Emperor often preached and initiated her, she was still slightly lacking.

This woman was beautiful, with a graceful figure and snow-white skin. She moved with lightning speed, leading a large group of cultivators in retreat.

Along the way, they brought out a large number of rare treasures from many palaces, and the treasuries and other important places were completely looted.

"You are a descendant of the Divine Court?! You have good blood of light within you, but you are far inferior to the ancient princess."

A devastating pressure descended, the sun and moon howled, and it was impossible to approach. A black figure appeared and blocked the way, forcefully cutting off the Divine Court army. Everyone was suffocated by the pressure.

"It's Yama!" Everyone turned pale; they were only one step away from the central divine palace!

At this moment, however, it was like an insurmountable chasm. Yan Ming stood in front of him, alone with his sword, overlooking all directions and blocking all paths.

"Demon, you suppressed the Divine Refining Pot and attacked my Divine Court. You will pay the price in the future. One day, the Holy Spirit Royal Family will face its second extinction!" said the Divine Court's empress, who was of the Light Clan. Her silver hair flew wildly, and she was very fierce. She wanted to revive the killing formation immediately and fight with all her might.

"The divine formation has been activated, annihilating all enemies!"

Behind her, the high-ranking officials and generals of the Divine Court jointly activated their divine power. The symbols of the Great Dao that appeared around them were cold and eerie, as if they were rushing in from the Asura Realm. Their killing intent was even stronger, and they turned into ripples that constantly intertwined in the sky.

"boom!"

The next moment, the universe collapsed, the mountains and rivers lost their color, and the world was overturned in the blink of an eye. Everything was different. The killing array that the emperor had personally inscribed was revived, emitting a monstrous red light that enveloped everyone.

"The killing formation set up by the Quasi-Emperor Ninth Heaven is indeed terrifying, but that depends on who breaks it!" Yan Ming said, his Dao Tribulation Golden Eyes shooting out immortal light as he formed hand seals and began to break the formation.

He's very fast!

Today, the Golden Light of the Vertical Strike has been perfected to the sixth level. With a single leap, countless afterimages are created, making it impossible to distinguish between illusion and reality. This is a great supernatural power that delves into the laws of time.

"boom!"

In the haze, a corner of the void trembled and then exploded. A gourd of immortality cleaved through the universe. Because it had drunk too much blood, the original black gourd became as clear and bright as a ruby. At the same time, its power surged, and the sword light it unleashed was also blood-red. It dissected the rules and revealed its astonishing power once again.

Everyone in the Divine Court paled, especially some of the Saints, whose faces turned deathly pale. The situation was dire. Facing the Holy Spirit Royal Family Master, the Immortal-Slaying Gourd's reputation was too great. Could the grand formation left behind by the Emperor truly withstand it?

"boom!"

The moment the Immortal-Slaying Flying Sword fell, everything changed. The array platform of the Divine Court Heavenly Palace became unstable and shook violently. The countless runes that appeared were all wailing and trembling with fear.

Of course, the most direct change was that the goddess who was in charge of the magic array had blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, and bloodstains were spreading on her collarbone, almost tearing her to pieces.

She let out a muffled groan, her heart trembling, and a strange feeling began to stir within her.

This is simply an invincible giant on the offensive!
He won't be much weaker than the Emperor!

"Though there is a magic array, it is difficult to defy the heavens!" Yan Ming murmured, and in an instant, his brow glowed, and a large area of ​​golden light of Dao Tribulation shone from the top of his head. A thick and powerful primordial spirit shot out, with boundless Dao thoughts, and he once again bombarded the Immortal Slaying Gourd.

At the same time, he was also wielding his sword, and the killing sword in his palm was revived, with all the Immortal Slayer Shadows on it coming back to life.

Breaking the formation is only a matter of time.

"boom!"

Having dealt with the power of the laws left behind by the Emperor, the Spirit Treasure Killing Sword swept across the ten directions, slaying dozens of array platforms.

It's that simple, we broke the formation directly!

Yan Ming took a step forward, with the phantom of a true dragon and the roar of a white tiger behind him, as if a true dragon had awakened from the abyss and then emerged into the world to begin a massacre.

In the shadows, someone disappeared into the void, trying to leave. As a result, the Red Lotus Karmic Fire fell, followed by the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, which blazed brightly. A milky-white golden crow appeared, its wings striking the sky, causing the person in the shadows to tremble violently and bleed from the mouth.

"Ah..." A disheveled figure fell down, screamed, and flew horizontally. It was none other than Yu Huatian, the vice sect leader of the Divine Court, who had only appeared at this moment.

At the same time, in the sky, all kinds of divine power surged and raged, causing large cracks to spread, and the already shaky remnant formation to collapse rapidly, on the verge of disintegration.

"boom!"

Yan Ming flicked his sleeve, and countless flames surged forth, condensing into a crimson chain of order, which locked Yu Huatian in his hand.

"You are a quasi-emperor, yet you can't even face an enemy? You're not even as good as a woman." Yan Ming scolded, throwing Yu Huatian to the ground with a bang, and then the sword rang out, slashing towards his neck.

"You... no!" Yu Huatian shouted, attempting to submit, but was beheaded in front of so many people.

With a blinding flash of light, a bloody head was severed. The primordial spirit within rose up, trying to break free, but the cascading flames formed a cage that trapped it, subjecting it to agonizing torment—a torment far worse than death itself.

Seeing that her target's attention was drawn away, the silver-haired woman not far away tried to escape. She used a quasi-Emperor artifact, which was protected by corresponding laws, to leave a seed for the Divine Court.

"Hmph." Yan Ming glanced at her coldly, then swung his other hand.

This woman had cursed his people before!
"Snapped!"

A very crisp sound rang out, and half of the woman's face swelled up, her bones cracked, and she was sent flying sideways, crashing to the ground with blood spurting from her mouth and nose.

With the Divine Court on the verge of destruction, this so-called Divine Empress has also lost her former glory!
Silence fell over the crowd. The powerful figures watching this scene were practically prostrate, their souls trembling, fearing they would be wiped out as well.

The Divine Palace was captured, and the army collapsed completely, with a terrifying disparity in combat strength between the two sides.

At least on this battlefield, the lack of a Quasi-Emperor is a major disadvantage. Facing an existence of that level, the Great Sage is powerless; charging forward would only result in a futile death. How could they possibly stop it? Their morale has been shattered.
