Shrouding the Heavens: Starting by joining the Holy Land of Yao Guang

Chapter 386 Defeating the Great Emperor

Without the aid of weapons, Li Yao's combat strength is not perfect, but at this moment he is very fierce, his magical power is unparalleled, and he is incredibly powerful.

The Tenfold Domain has been activated, and combined with the Divine Restriction, it has pushed Li Yao's current state to a terrifying level.

Li Yao swung his fist, shattering countless Dao patterns. He chased after the Golden Crow, using the Sun Emperor Fist and the Moon Emperor Fist in turn.

Although this was not his forbidden divine technique, the way Li Yao used it at this moment truly made it seem as if he were standing in a forbidden domain.

If it were an unfamiliar supreme being, they might mistakenly believe that the two holy emperors had been resurrected.

He threw a thousand punches, but it was only for a moment. Li Yao caught up with the Golden Crow and unleashed a Chaos Emperor Fist directly at it.

The edge of the universe shattered into pieces. The Golden Crow roared and unleashed its Emperor Fist, but the next moment, its body flew out like an arrow.

The fist he exchanged blows with Li Yao had golden blood flowing between his fingers and palm, and tiny wounds spread from his knuckles to his arm.

"How is this possible!" This time, Jinwu could no longer remain calm.

While it was far from a defeat, it was clear that they were at a disadvantage in direct confrontation.

His original confident mindset changed. He originally thought that with the blood essence of the alien quasi-king and the Heavenly Heart Mark, he would be no weaker than any emperor in history.

Therefore, he was very confident that Li Yao could not be his opponent. The reason he did not want to fight was simply because he did not want to expose his alien heritage so early.

But little did they expect that the truth would be that only a fight would reveal who was stronger and who was weaker.

"I cannot be defeated, it's just that my essence blood has not been fully refined yet. If I wait a while longer, he will definitely not be my match." Jinwu was unwilling.

Having finally obtained an opportunity to come into contact with immortals above the realm of the Emperor, he has not yet fully risen to power, nor has he reached the pinnacle and ultimately become an immortal. How could he be willing to perish like this?

However, the fusion of the essence and blood of the quasi-king was still short, and he had not fully refined it, nor had he digested much of the inherited memories, so his strength had not increased significantly.

On the other hand, who knows if Li Yao's current state represents his strongest fighting force?
Deep in the universe, the Lord of the Divine Court stared blankly, unable to believe what he was seeing.

The fact that a contemporary emperor is somewhat no match for a quasi-emperor at the seventh level of heaven is incredibly fantastical.

Is this really the combat power that a Quasi-Emperor of the Seventh Heaven should possess?
He, who is about to attain enlightenment, also possesses a divine forbidden domain and has an even higher realm, so why can't he achieve this?

Aren't we all using the same forbidden domain?

The same was true for the Divine Organization and the Forbidden Zone of Life; they were all unsure whether the Golden Crow was a useless piece of trash or if Li Yao was simply too powerful.

If the Golden Crow is considered useless, then the Emperor is invincible. How useless can an Emperor who has merged with the Heavenly Heart Mark be?

Therefore, there is only one explanation: Li Yao is too powerful, exceeding all reason.

The Supreme Beings were well aware that different divine restrictions were not the same; otherwise, why would Wushi be significantly stronger than others when the Great Emperor resided in a divine restriction?

The Divine Forbidden Domain breaks free from the eight restrictions and loses all shackles, but that does not mean that it has reached its peak.

In fact, for the Great Emperor, the Divine Restriction is just the beginning. Once the shackles are removed, there is no upper limit. As long as you have the ability, theoretically, you can keep increasing your combat power indefinitely.

To put it in a more common way, the initial stage of entering the Divine Forbidden Realm involves the Nine Forbidden Realms, and then one can continue to advance. How far one can go depends entirely on oneself.

Of course, that's just an example. In fact, after entering the forbidden realm, there are no clear boundaries. Who is stronger and who is weaker can only be clearly felt after a real fight.

For example, right now, Li Yao's Divine Forbidden Domain is clearly much stronger than Jinwu's; the two are not even in the same league.

This is why the current situation has arisen. On the edge of the universe, Li Yao stands proudly in the starry sky, surrounded by countless forces that converge at his feet. Chaotic immortal power surges, enveloping his entire body, and his long black hair dances wildly like a cascading river of stars.

"Confess honestly, and I'll let you go today, giving you the chance to continue growing stronger. Otherwise, you'll become the first emperor in history to be defeated, a laughingstock in ancient history," Li Yao said coldly.

He was eager to know what secrets the Golden Crow held, secrets that would concern the safety of this universe.

Li Yao's arrogant attitude enraged Jinwu, who roared, "You haven't won yet, so why are you acting like a victor?"

"boom!"

The Heavenly Heart Mark vibrated, and the Golden Crow Avenue began to glow. All other myriad paths were suppressed, leaving only one path standing tall, overlooking all the smaller mountains.

This is also one of the reasons why the Great Emperors are invincible. They can elevate their own Dao through the Heavenly Heart Mark and, to a certain extent, suppress the Dao of others.

The rise and fall of one has a huge impact, and coupled with the Emperor's cultivation level, who in this world can rival him?

Even the Supreme Being wouldn't suffice, because this isn't their era.

At this very moment, the Golden Crow made the Heavenly Heart Mark roar, its own Dao leaped forward, standing above all other Daos, and its Dao cultivation greatly improved.

As for Li Yao, because he walked the Chaos Dao, even the Heavenly Heart Mark could not suppress him, but it did not provide any additional benefit.

In this calculation, the Golden Crow still received the bonus.

"boom!"

A terrifying energy surge swept across the area, and the two engaged in battle once more!
The Golden Crow has become even more powerful, and relying solely on the Divine Forbidden Domain and the Tenfold Domain, it seems to be losing control.

Fortunately, Li Yao had too many trump cards up his sleeve. The title of Daoist Master of Ten Thousand Laws was well-deserved. He unleashed a variety of powerful divine techniques and quickly suppressed Li Yao again.

He used eight of the nine secrets that were renowned throughout the universe, only lacking the final one, the "Lin" secret. In addition, the Taiyin Taiyang Emperor Fist, the Chaos God Fist, and the True Dragon Fist appeared from time to time.

The Golden Crow could not withstand such a terrifying attack. It was forced to retreat and bleed profusely, and even the Golden Bell of the Tribulation was damaged.

In the blink of an eye, when the two had exchanged over a thousand blows, Li Yao suddenly opened his mouth and roared, his voice carrying a terrifying killing intent, like the coldest winter.

The tiger roars across the heavens!

This is a special technique from the White Tiger Treasure Art, focusing on sonic attacks. It emphasizes suddenness and makes it difficult to defend against.

Jinwu's head jerked, feeling as if he had been hit on the head with a club. Fortunately, he was experienced in combat and had already anticipated that the enemy might launch a sonic attack.

However, this shikigami technique was too powerful. Even though he was prepared, he still felt he couldn't withstand it, and his primordial spirit was in a state of chaos for a moment.

"Oh no!" Just as everything went black, Jinwu knew something terrible was about to happen.

At this moment, in the desolate borderlands, Li Yao transformed into lightning, freezing time. It was almost the instant the Golden Crow lost its focus. He suddenly grabbed the Golden Crow's arms with both hands and then unleashed his divine power.

"Pfft!"

Golden blood spurted wildly, and the golden crow let out a shrill scream. Looking at its body torn in two, its eyes were filled with murderous intent filled with shame and rage.

He was the greatest emperor of his time, how did he end up like this?

Unfortunately, Li Yao didn't want to answer his question. After defeating Jinwu, he didn't hold back. First, he smashed Jinwu's lower body into a bloody pulp with a palm strike, and then he suppressed Jinwu's Great Dao with endless Dao patterns.
