While in Battle Through the Heavens, one can pre-appoint oneself as an emperor.

Chapter 431 The Great Emperor Zixiao?

You can't sleep with two different kinds of people on the same pillow. Qing Yanjing's words were exactly what Chen Xiao was thinking.

In the past, your Maha Ancient Clan overpowered Zixiao Palace but was killed in retaliation. That was due to the power of my Zixiao Palace. Today, I'm here to settle scores. If your Maha Ancient Clan has the strength, then go ahead and kill me. If you don't, then just accept it obediently. That's how simple the principles of this world are.

"Spare me—spare my life!"

The supernatural powers of the Maha Ancient Clan's Heavenly Sovereigns posed no threat to Chen Xiao, so it was Chen Xiao's turn to take his place.

He didn't use any earth-shattering supernatural powers, yet he moved like a tiger among sheep. With a single finger, a Heavenly Sovereign died instantly; with a single palm strike, another Heavenly Sovereign vanished into nothingness on the spot.

Outside Maha City, more and more powerful figures gathered to watch, yet the place was eerily silent.

Before today, no one had ever imagined that one day, the supreme Heavenly Sovereign would be slaughtered like pigs and dogs.

At this moment, the old man whose head Chen Xiao had grabbed was the eighth Heavenly Sovereign of the Maha Ancient Clan who was about to perish!

"Not sincere enough." Chen Xiao shook his head lightly.

Upon hearing this, the old man felt utterly hopeless and attempted to unleash his full spiritual power to self-destruct. However, he was soon horrified to discover that the vast spiritual power within him, enough to sink a continent, had already transformed into a frozen, dead sea, which he could not mobilize even a fraction of. Even his immortal-grade spiritual body had been lost under his control.

Snapped!

Like a shattered ball, the eighth Heavenly Sovereign of the Maha Ancient Clan instantly turned into a blood mist.

"True Emperor, that's enough!"

Just as Chen Xiao was about to continue his attack, a furious roar erupted from the depths of the main hall.

Mohetian shot out and appeared in everyone's sight.

His face was so gloomy it was almost dripping with water; his usual domineering and confident demeanor had vanished, leaving only a deep-seated fear.

As the saying goes, seeing is believing. From the moment Chen Xiao appeared, he realized that everyone was wrong.

They severely underestimated the terror of this True Emperor of Zixiao Palace!

He racked his brains, trying to come up with a solution, but to no avail.

Left with no other choice, he had to bite the bullet and show up.

After all, if he, as the clan leader, didn't step in, the Heavenly Sovereign of the Maha Ancient Clan would likely be wiped out by Chen Xiao.

"I thought you would continue to cower in the shadows. As the clan leader, you have shown some responsibility. Come, let me see the true strength of your Maha Ancient Clan."

"As you wish!!!"

Maha Tian gritted his teeth and responded, ceasing his futile attacks.

He knew very well that, apart from that trump card, all other methods were completely useless in front of this powerful figure who seemed to have already surpassed the Heavenly Sovereign realm.

Immediately, Maha Tian formed a hand seal, a ruthless and decisive look flashing in his eyes. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood essence, which, along with the changes in his hand seals, eventually transformed into a blood-red rune.

Crimson runes shot into the sky and disappeared into the deepest part of this continent.

boom!

Just as the crimson runes disappeared, everyone felt the earth tremble violently. Deep within the continent, at the ancestral land of the Maha Ancient Clan, a towering black and white pillar of light shot into the sky.

The pillar of light connected heaven and earth, and above this ancient city, space shattered, and the black and white pillar of light actually descended from space!

Within that black and white pillar of light, everyone saw a jade bottle, displaying both black and white colors, slowly appear.

When the black and white jade bottle appeared, the entire world seemed to begin to take on black and white colors, as if yin and yang were converging.

An indescribable aura emanated from the black and white jade bottle.

Upon seeing the black and white jade bottle, the expressions of the group of Heavenly Sovereigns who were watching the battle from afar all changed drastically.

The other four ancient divine races, in particular, watched intently, their faces showing a hint of tension.

"The sacred artifact protecting the Maha Ancient Clan, the Maha Yin-Yang Bottle!" Fu Tu Xuan whispered, revealing the origin of the black and white jade bottle.

Such sacred artifacts protecting the clan are possessed by all five ancient divine clans.

For example, the ancestral tower of the Futu Ancient Clan can protect the race. This treasure is extremely important, and it is generally not used lightly unless it is a matter of life and death.

With the strength of a mid-stage Heavenly Sovereign of the Maha Heavenly Saint Rank, coupled with this Maha Yin Yang Bottle, he could roam freely within the Heavenly Sovereign territory without restraint.

The major ancient clans watched nervously, eager to see if Chen Xiao could crush them as easily as before. If he could, it would mean that he could also crush the remaining four major ancient clans with such invincibility.

Therefore, the upcoming clash will determine whether Chen Xiao will be recognized as being in a class of his own in their hearts!

Whoosh!

Black and white energies filled the heavens and earth, as if yin and yang were converging, giving birth to infinite mysteries. The entire world was transformed into black and white.

"True Emperor, aren't the lives of eight Heavenly Sovereigns enough to atone for past grievances? If you retreat now, my Maha Ancient Clan guarantees that we will never again interfere with your Zixiao Palace, how about it?"

Maha Tian's eyes were as cold as ice. He stared at Chen Xiao, making a final attempt to persuade him, which could be considered a disguised surrender.

Unfortunately, Chen Xiao remained unmoved. He always believed in eliminating enemies completely, even those who were now irreconcilable enemies.

Otherwise, even with their own deterrent, the Mahagu clan wouldn't dare to do anything openly, and their underhanded actions would be unsettling.

Seeing Chen Xiao's attitude, Maha Tian said no more. With a dark face, he snorted coldly and then formed a hand seal. Instantly, the Maha Yin Yang Bottle in the sky slowly tilted over, and black and white light poured out from the mouth of the bottle!

The black and white light stream was formed from extremely pure spiritual energy, one yin and one yang, both scorching and icy. When the two intersected, they gave rise to many profound mysteries. When it fell, all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that it touched was assimilated into black and white.

Therefore, when it fell, it had already transformed into a surging black and white ocean!

Gazing at the black and white ocean engulfing him, Chen Xiao remained composed. If this were the early days of the Purple Cloud Palace, he might have needed to rely on the False World and True World to confront the Maha Yin-Yang Bottle, but now—

It's just a minor thing!

With a thought, the Three Primal Chaos Mother Light slowly rose from Chen Xiao's body, the three-colored divine radiance intertwining, gently rolling around like the beginning of chaos, and enveloping his entire body.

At that moment, the black and white Yin-Yang ocean, which surged down and was enough to make even a Saint-grade Heavenly Supreme take notice, crashed into the three-colored divine light surrounding Chen Xiao like a great river flowing down from the sky.

Everyone watched nervously. They had considered all sorts of ways Chen Xiao could respond, but they hadn't expected that under such a terrifying impact, the three-colored divine light surrounding Chen Xiao wouldn't even cause a ripple.

laugh!laugh!

With a soft hissing sound, the endless stream of black and white light touched the Three Primal Chaos Mother Light and was instantly melted, assimilated, and reversed, just like ice and snow thrown into a furnace!

The ultimate power of black and white, in the face of the tri-colored divine light, acted as a catalyst, causing the tri-elemental chaotic mother light to surge rapidly. The speed at which the black and white ocean was assimilated also suddenly accelerated. In just a few breaths, the black and white ocean had completely disappeared, assimilated into the three colors of gold, blue, and black, transforming into a vast and magnificent tri-colored sea of ​​light, several times larger than before, which swept back towards the Maha Heaven along its original trajectory!

"Above the Saintly Rank Heavenly Supreme!!"

Maha Tian's pupils contracted sharply, and each word seemed to be squeezed out through gritted teeth.

He wasn't entirely sure before, but now he was absolutely certain that Chen Xiao had surpassed the Heavenly Sovereign realm!

Only in this way is it possible to deal with the Maha Yin-Yang Bottle so easily!

"True Emperor! No! My Maha Ancient Clan accepts defeat! We submit to your will!"

As the three-colored chaotic sea of ​​light surged back like a celestial river pouring down, crashing towards the black and white jade bottle suspended in mid-air, Maha Tian, ​​disregarding his horror, cried out in shock.

If the Maha Yin-Yang Bottle is destroyed, he will be completely condemned as a sinner, and the entire Maha Ancient Clan will never be able to return to its current status!

Conversely, even if the elite of the Maha Ancient Clan were to perish this time, as long as the Maha Yin-Yang Bottle remains intact, the Maha Ancient Clan still has a sliver of hope to return to its former glory.

"Since that's the case—"

"Then I, the Emperor, will give you a chance!"

After a moment's thought, Chen Xiao suddenly had an idea. As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved it lightly. The three-colored chaotic sea of ​​light that was sweeping towards the Maha Yin-Yang Bottle changed direction and suddenly shot straight into the sky to converge, like a bright sun stretching across the sky above Maha City.

"Yesterday's cause, today's effect. Today, I, the Emperor, hereby seal off Maha City until the next time all the Heavenly Sovereigns gather at the Northern Wilderness Hill. At that time, all members of the Maha Ancient Clan above the Supreme Realm must fight and kill ten members of the same level from the extraterrestrial evil race to save their lives!"

"During the seal period, you are free to try your best to break it, and you may also call upon your friends and acquaintances. If you can escape the seal's range ahead of schedule, that will be a testament to your skill!"

"Maha Heaven, are you satisfied with my decision?"

Countless gazes were fixed on Maha Tian, ​​especially on the surviving Heavenly Sovereigns of the Maha Ancient Clan, who feared that their clan leader would utter words that would bring them despair.

Fortunately, Mohetian was just domineering, not stupid. When facing Chen Xiao, who had at least reached the level of an Immortal Emperor, he was more pragmatic than anyone else.

Therefore, even knowing that from now on, these powerful members of the Maha Ancient Clan would become the suicide squad of the Great Thousand World, he did not hesitate at all.

"Thank you, True Emperor! The Maha Ancient Clan accepts the punishment!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Maha Tian's knees buckled, and he bowed deeply to Chen Xiao in front of countless powerful figures.

Chen Xiao stood with his hands behind his back in the void, his indifferent gaze sweeping over the trembling members of the Maha Ancient Clan. His voice was not loud, but it resounded clearly in everyone's ears.

"Just accept it."

As he spoke, Chen Xiao raised his hand and pressed down in mid-air.

hum!

Above the sky, the three-colored sun suddenly burst forth with divine radiance, cascading down like a celestial waterfall and enveloping the entire city of Maha.

Countless profound runes emerged from the sea of ​​light, layer upon layer, weaving together to form an unparalleled seal that spans heaven and earth.

Within the seal, spiritual energy stagnates and space is locked. Even if a Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereign were to exert all his strength with a sacred artifact like the Yin-Yang Bottle of the Mohe River, he would find it difficult to budge it in the slightest.

Gazing at the enormous light screen radiating three-colored chaotic light, all the powerful figures watching from afar had slightly solemn expressions.

They all knew that from this day forward, the Mahagu tribe was completely finished.

For the next hundred years or so, there will probably be no more news of the Maha Ancient Clan in the vast world. Even if the day comes for the final battle with the extraterrestrial evil race, the Maha Ancient Clan will have little chance of survival.

After all, not everyone can be invincible against a strong opponent of the same level. Moreover, this is not an ordinary sparring match, but a life-or-death battle!

Under these circumstances, killing ten extraterrestrial evil beings of the same level would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Chen Xiao ignored the thoughts of the powerful figures and, after finishing everything, slowly withdrew his gaze and looked towards the distant void.

With just one glance, these top experts, who could all be called giants in their own right, all felt their minds and souls shaken.

In that battle just now, this True Emperor went from killing the Heavenly Supreme to easily breaking the Maha Yin-Yang Bottle, and then deciding the fate of the Maha Ancient Clan with one hand. The whole process was smooth and effortless, without the slightest hint of arrogance.

They are now convinced that this True Emperor of Zixiao Palace is no longer someone they can look at as an equal or contend with.

Before him, the Heavenly Sovereign was like a clay chicken or a clay dog; the sacred artifacts protecting the clan were nothing more than objects that could be broken at will. The vast Primordial God Clan could be sealed or punished at will.

Seeing Chen Xiao stride towards him, Fu Tu Xuan glanced at Qin Tian beside him, took the first step forward, and bowed respectfully to Chen Xiao from afar, his tone extremely respectful.

"Futu Xuan of the Ancient Futu Clan greets the Great Emperor Zixiao!"

Once there's a first, there's a second.

The ancient spirit race, the black sky ancient race, and other super forces that were rapidly approaching from afar all bowed and paid their respects, their voices mingling together.

"Greetings, Great Emperor Zixiao!"

In the memories of all living beings, throughout the ages, only the immortal emperor who sealed the Heavenly Evil God at the cost of his own life has been given the title of emperor.

At this moment, with Fu Tu Xuan taking the lead, Chen Xiao has clearly become the second one!

"Qin Tian greets the Purple Cloud Emperor."

"The Great Thousand Palace was established to unite the strongest beings of the Great Thousand Realm to fight against the evil races from beyond the realm. However, since the Immortal Emperor, the position of Palace Master of the Great Thousand Palace has remained vacant. For tens of thousands of years, the Emperor is the first person to reach the Immortal Emperor realm. Qin Tian dares to respectfully invite the Purple Cloud Emperor to ascend to the position of Palace Master of the Great Thousand Palace!"

"From this day forward, all members of the Great Thousand Palace will obey the Emperor's commands!"

Even though the Great Thousand Palace cannot forcibly mobilize the Heavenly Sovereigns of the Great Thousand World on ordinary days, it is still a super power, and a top-tier one at that.

Qin Tian, ​​before the palace master was appointed, held the greatest power in the Great Thousand Palace.

But at this moment, he invited Chen Xiao to serve as the palace master without hesitation.

It must be said that although the people of the Great Thousand Palace often acted with bias and were as disgusting as troublemakers, they did contribute a lot to the Great Thousand World in general.

Moreover, most of them are not the kind of people who crave enjoyment or power.

After glancing at the crowd of people bowing around him, Chen Xiao took a step forward and arrived at Qing Yanjing's side.

"Please, everyone, there's no need for such formalities. Just call me the True Emperor. I'm used to it and don't want to change."

"As for the position of Palace Master of the Great Thousand Palace that Elder Qin mentioned—"

"Not interested."

After a long silence from Chen Xiao, the crowd grew suspicious and looked up in surprise.

But all that could be seen was that tall and straight figure, now holding Qing Yanjing's hand, walking step by step to the end of the sky, like a pair of celestial lovers!
