Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

"Damn it, is this the end of my, Tuoba Wudi's, destiny?"

"I'm so unwilling to accept this!"

Deep within the Demon Abyss, the once high-spirited Tuoba Wudi lay in a pool of blood, his hands and feet torn off, turning him into a human pig.

Blood continued to flow from his body, and his breath grew weaker and weaker. Not far from him, several powerful members of the Blade Demon Clan crossed their arms and were laughing cruelly.

"What stubborn ants! Both their hands and feet have been severed, and they've been poisoned by my clan's corpse poison. Even if they don't die, they'll most likely be crippled when they get back!"

"It's a pity I didn't want him to become my corpse puppet. A puppet forged with such tenacious will must have immense potential!"

Hehehe

"Very well, with Brother Zhuge erecting a cenotaph for me, I can consider myself to have returned to my homeland!"

As his blood was drained, Tuoba Wudi's mind gradually became blurred.

"The Vajra Finger of the Floating Pagoda!"

Just then, Tuoba Wudi vaguely heard a loud shout, followed by several thuds and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.

Before the blood-loss-prone Tuoba Wudi could even comprehend what was happening, a celestial elixir was fed into his mouth, and then his severed limbs were placed at the broken ends.

The elixir melted instantly upon entering his mouth, and within a few breaths, his wound began to itch, and countless granulation tissues began to sprout as the elixir's medicinal power circulated.

Finally, he opened his eyes and saw several dashing young men looking at him with smiling eyes.

"Who are you? The Great Luo Domain Lord and the Shepherd?"

Tuoba Wudi subconsciously got up, but his body remained still, lying in the same spot.

It turned out that he had lost too much blood and his limbs had been severed for a long time. He had subconsciously thought he was a human pig, and his limbs had not obeyed the command of his brain.

"Brother Tuoba, please stand up and speak."

Mu Chen smiled slightly, showing great admiration for Tuoba Wudi in front of him.

Mu Chen was no exception; countless contestants were moved by his previous life-or-death speech.

"Many thanks to the herdsman for saving my life! Tuoba will surely repay this kindness in the future!"

After getting used to his newly connected limbs for a while, Tuoba Wudi finally stood up, clasped his hands in a solemn gesture, and said...

"Hahaha"

Mu Chen and Mandala laughed heartily, and their cheerful laughter infected Tuoba Wudi, who also joined in the laughter.

"Brother Tuoba, now that you've recovered, why don't you join us to hunt down demons?"

"this"

Tuoba Wudi hesitated for a moment. He understood that Mu Chen's invitation was mostly out of a desire to help him.

After all, they were all powerful beings at the Earthly Sovereign level, while he was merely a Sovereign. What help could he possibly offer them?

As for scouting ahead, that's even more of a joke. The Demon Abyss suppresses spiritual energy, making movement difficult. If he went to scout ahead, he might die without Mu Chen and the others even knowing.

Moreover, this competition only assesses who kills the most enemies; it's not about exploring secret realms or any other kind of mission.

"Your Majesty is magnanimous. Tuoba is willing to serve under your command. Please accept him!"

After thinking it over, Tuoba Wudi realized that if he returned to his family, he would only be able to become an ordinary Earthly Sovereign Elder, which made him very unwilling.

So, his expression hardened, and he knelt down on one knee before Mu Chen, bowing respectfully with his fists clasped.

"good!"

Mu Chen paused for a moment, then nodded when he saw the sincerity in Tuoba Wudi's eyes.

"Since that's the case, we're comrades-in-arms now. Let's go, and fight our way to a brilliant future!"

"yes!"

The case of Tuoba Wudi was, after all, only a minority. Most of the contestants, after being cut into human pigs by the demons, could only wait until their blood was about to run out.

At the last moment, the token emitted a seven-colored divine light, enveloping it and teleporting it back to the Great Thousand World.

Fortunately, when these time travelers returned, the emerald green divine light within the token shone brightly, restoring them to their peak condition.

Even more miraculously, their severed limbs regrew back, and were even stronger than before.

Reaching Lin Feng's level, these bodies of Supreme Beings or Earthly Supreme Beings can be restored in the blink of an eye.

Of course, Lin Feng did not tell these participants beforehand that they would not die no matter what.

Sometimes, only by putting people in a life-or-death situation can their greatest potential be unleashed!

"How foolish I was! The Heavenly Emperor is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, and his methods are astonishing. I should have known long ago that the Heavenly Emperor wouldn't really let me die at the hands of evil spirits!"

"Same fool, same fool!"

"."

In the spectator area, countless strong competitors who had given up the competition witnessed this scene and beat their chests in regret.

"Once, an opportunity to soar to great heights was presented to me, but I lost it because I did not trust the Heavenly Emperor."

"If time could turn back, I would say, I beg the Heavenly Emperor to grant me ten thousand more such opportunities!"

A humanoid divine beast roared, shaking heaven and earth. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a stone monkey sitting on the ground, heartbroken.

Beside him was a divine weapon commonly used by the ape clan—the Heaven-Piercing Staff!

Normally, this monkey's appearance would have made everyone burst into laughter, but today, many onlookers couldn't laugh at all.

Tens of thousands of people were filled with regret. If they hadn't given up the competition, their cultivation level and aptitude would have been unimaginably improved under the Heavenly Emperor's methods after the competition ended!

That's just how people are; often, after choosing one path, they regret not choosing another!

In a corner, Lin Xu and the other second-generation members of the Heavenly Court stood there, listening to the many sighs around them, and inexplicably felt a sense of enlightenment.

"Aren't you and I the same? It's just that compared to them, we are more fortunate to be the children of the Heavenly Emperor."

"Yes, that's why we need to cultivate even harder to be worthy of this good fortune!"

"."

Xiao Lin was troubled by the meaningful sighs of Xiao Xiao and the others, because their friends were talking about him.

"Gentlemen, I have recently awakened to the truth and am now diligently cultivating myself!"

Xiao Lin wore a wry smile, just like his father. Then he raised his right hand, and an aura belonging to a Celestial Supreme flashed by.

"Thanks to Uncle Lin Feng's thousand lifetimes of reincarnation, I've finally broken through to the Immortal Rank, which means I can now somewhat keep up with your level!"

"It's still a long way off!"

Ling'er smiled smugly, and then, to Xiao Lin's puzzled look, Ling'er and the others released a trace of their aura, causing his expression to change drastically and a bead of cold sweat to involuntarily trickle down his face.

"A Saint-grade Heavenly Supreme? How... how is this possible?!"

Xiao Lin was filled with disbelief. You see, as the second generation of the Heavenly Court, apart from Lin Xu and Lin Jinglei, their talents were actually quite similar.

Even if he was so engrossed in alchemy and pursuing breakthroughs in medicine-making that he neglected his cultivation, it was only a few decades. How could Ling'er and the others possibly break through?

"call"

After Xiao Lin calmed down, he breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the group had only taken one step into the Saint-level realm.

"You startled me, but aren't you all a bit too obsessed with cultivation?"

"Hehe, Xiao Lin, you don't understand. Although we come from a good family, we still need to cultivate even harder so as not to embarrass our father!"

Yun'er stretched out her finger and shook it from side to side, then said with a serious expression.

"Although the Western Heaven War Emperor has died, that sense of powerlessness is still deeply engraved in our hearts."

"Even though we can't compare to our father, we will still strive to become stronger!"

"That's true!"

Xiao Lin nodded, then his expression turned bitter. "But when will I have time to study alchemy?"

"Hahaha"

Seeing Xiao Lin's bitter expression, Lin Xu and Lin Jinglei, who hadn't spoken until now, exchanged a glance and burst into laughter.

"Damn it, Holy Heaven, if this continues, the younger generation of my clan will be wiped out by these brats from the Great Thousand Realms!"

Above the Demon Abyss, many Heavenly Demon Emperors watched as their demon cubs were killed. When they tried to kill the Great Thousand Cubs, they were stopped by the seven-colored token and could only watch them leave.

This feeling is incredibly frustrating!

"Holy Heaven, let's fight the Heavenly Court! I refuse to believe that the Heavenly Emperor, who hasn't even broken through yet, can suppress my Holy Race single-handedly!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Our people have never been so humiliated. Even when we were driven from our ancestral land, we retained our pride. How could we have come to this?"

"."

Above the Demon Abyss, many Heavenly Demon Emperors looked at the scene below, feeling endless anger rising from the bottom of their hearts. Their demonic energy surged around them, and the killing intent in their eyes became increasingly difficult to suppress.

"That's enough!"

The Holy Heaven Demon Emperor roared, his body swirling with alternating flames of light and darkness, making him appear both godlike and demonic.

At this moment, his anger caused many Heavenly Demon Emperors to fall silent, their gazes fixed on him, awaiting his decision.

"I'll go and negotiate with the Heavenly Emperor!"

With countless eyes fixed on him, the Holy Heaven Demon Emperor felt immense pressure. Only he, who had truly clashed with Lin Feng, knew just how terrifying the current Heavenly Emperor was.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

At first, he thought that the Heavenly Emperor's aura was similar to that of the Immortal Emperor. But after calming down, he was shocked to discover that the Heavenly Emperor was actually merging with the origin of the Great Thousand World.

He naturally lacked such insight, but the Holy Heaven Demon Emperor had seen such a person, or rather, a god, the god of the Holy Race—the Holy God!

"Damn it, if war really breaks out, my race will surely be wiped out!"

"The only course of action now is to wait for the Holy God to recover. At that time, the Great Thousand Origins will no longer suppress our race. Then, even if war breaks out, we will have the Holy God's support!"

Thinking of this, the Holy Heaven Demon Emperor steeled himself and approached Lin Feng. The closer he got, the more he felt a fear of death rising in his heart.

"Holy Heaven, is there something you want to say?"

Lin Feng glanced at the furious Heavenly Demon Emperors not far away, then looked at the ground where the demons were being slaughtered one-sidedly. He then understood why the Holy Heavenly Demon Emperor had stepped forward.

"Heavenly Emperor, this battle among the younger generation seems far too unfair to our race!"

The Holy Demon Emperor's expression hardened. After all, he was the great demon patriarch who had presided over the Holy Clan for 50,000 years after the Heavenly Evil God was sealed. Once he made up his mind, he was no longer afraid.

"My people's sons were killed, and even their corpses were taken, while the little ones of the Great Thousand Worlds are protected by your power!"

"What's the point of this kind of battle?"

"Although you are powerful, and our clan's Holy God is still sealed, if dozens of us Holy Ones were to attack you all at once, you still haven't broken through."

"Aren't you afraid that we'll all be killed in the process?"

"Oh"

Lin Feng withdrew his gaze from the battle on the ground, looked at the resolute appearance of the Holy Heaven Demon Emperor, and smiled with a hint of contempt.

Subsequently, under the increasingly furious gaze of the Holy Heaven Demon Emperor, Lin Feng ignored him and instead chatted and laughed with Xiao Yan and the others beside him.

Pointing and commenting at the many geniuses of the vast world on the earth, he would occasionally nod in approval and occasionally point out their shortcomings.

"Heavenly Emperor!!!"

"Oh, Holy Heaven, it was my oversight. What is it that you wish to discuss? Please speak plainly!"

"after all,"

Lin Feng gave him a rather subtle look, then shrugged and said.

"The extraterrestrial evil race has been neighbors with the Great Thousand World for fifty thousand years!"

"you"

"However, since you, Holy Heaven, have personally come to speak, I'll give you face!"

Lin Feng appeared calm and collected, but inwardly he warned himself, "This is the tragedy of weak races. If the Heavenly Court were to decline one day, it too would face the same miserable fate!"

"All participants, listen to my command! The grand competition will continue for three more days. After three days, based on the demonic corpses within the tokens in your hands, the top 100 will be determined according to their respective Supreme and Earthly Supreme realms!"

As soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, an even more brutal battle began to unfold on the ground.

"Heavenly Emperor, one day, our clan's holy spirit will avenge the humiliation you have brought upon our clan!"

The Holy Heaven Demon Emperor flicked his sleeves and left quickly without waiting for Lin Feng's reply. However, his figure looked somewhat disheveled and hurried.

It seemed as if he was afraid Lin Feng would kill him on the spot!

"Husband, why not?"

Watching the Holy Heaven Demon Emperor depart, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Cai Lin's eyes, along with a touch of confusion.

"The Holy Heavenly Demon Emperor is merely a small fry; only the Heavenly Evil God of the extraterrestrial evil race is worth hunting down!"

The white-robed Heavenly Emperor sensed within his body that the Heavenly Tomb, refined into a supreme sacred artifact, was emitting a faint light.

Inside the Heavenly Tomb, Lin Feng's true form had entered the deepest level of seclusion.

Once he emerges from seclusion, the first ruler of the Great Thousand Worlds, and the true ruler of that realm, will be born!

After the Heavenly Evil God emerged from seclusion, even though the Great Thousand Origin could no longer suppress him, it would not allow him to borrow the power of the Great Thousand World, and his origin was extremely weak.

Lin Feng, on the other hand, can mobilize the power of the vast world to suppress it!

At that time, Xiao Yan and Lin Dong had also entered the half-step Dominator realm.

Furthermore, Zi Yan and the others have made rapid progress. Let alone the weakened Tian Xie Shen, even if he were to recover to his full strength, he wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.

The conversation between the Heavenly Emperor and the Great Patriarch of the Holy Clan was unknown to the two sides fighting on the Demon Abyss. All they knew was that there were only three days left.

Whether they were contestants from the vast world or demon cubs from the extraterrestrial evil race, they all went completely mad.

Countless supernatural powers, even unparalleled ones, were unleashed wildly under the blessing of spiritual energy, containing the rage of the Great Thousand Worlds being invaded by extraterrestrial evil races for fifty thousand years.

The many demon cubs were not to be outdone. The Holy Race, since 50,000 years ago, has always been a force that brings fear to the world.

Today, under the leadership of the Heavenly Emperor, they actually ventured into the Demon Abyss and treated them as prey, deciding who would be the strongest based on who hunted the most.

What a humiliation this is for the proud Holy race!

"The Corpse God kowtows three times!"

"The Tribulation of Inner Demons!"

"The blade cleaves heaven and earth!"

"."

Countless demonic powers were unleashed, accompanied by demonic energy, corpse energy, blood energy, evil energy, and all sorts of filthy energies. It seemed that the methods used by the extraterrestrial evil race were all extremely cruel!

"Immortal Golden Body, Immortal Golden Arrow!"

Mu Chen's hands moved rapidly, forming hand seals, but he hadn't learned the essence of the Heavenly Emperor's family's techniques. He started with a clap of his hands, using his most powerful and secretive move.

Countless golden rays rose from his body, forming a magnificent golden statue ten feet tall behind him.

However, this ten-zhang-sized Dharma body is nothing compared to the tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of zhang-sized super behemoths of Earthly Sovereigns.

"The Ruyi Divine Weapon, it's huge!"

A jet-black ape roared, its immense divine power surging into the Ruyi Divine Weapon in its hand. Then, it and the divine weapon rapidly expanded, transforming in the blink of an eye into a colossal ape ten thousand feet tall.

"Hey, take this from Old Yuan!"

"Dragon and Phoenix Cry Together!"

On the land of the Demon Abyss, two richly dressed men exchanged a glance, then soared into the sky. Divine light burst forth from their bodies, and when the light faded, a colossal true dragon and true wind, tens of thousands of feet in size, appeared in the sky.

"Boom!"

Countless terrifying divine powers collided, and countless spiritual and magical energies intertwined instantly, resulting in a terrifying upheaval. Even the solid Demon Abyss land was riddled with massive cracks.

Even in the high sky where Lin Feng and the others were, there were cracks in space, and endless darkness mixed with a few silvery-white lights caused the power to surge and disrupt the world.

In the final three days, all the participants in the Great Thousand Worlds no longer held back their methods, unleashing countless hidden supernatural abilities in order to kill more extraterrestrial evil races.

The Heavenly Emperor said that he would use his methods to transform the demons he killed into the purest spiritual energy for them to absorb and refine.

The Heavenly Emperor's cultivation is unfathomable, reaching the pinnacle of the Great Thousand Worlds. As long as they can hunt down enough demons, breaking through a major realm is a piece of cake.

Moreover, there will be no superficiality in the realm of cultivation!

Such a good thing may only happen once in a lifetime, and many contestants put in their best efforts. Among them, Mu Chen, a Great Perfection Earth Supreme, was the most diligent.

If one can seize this opportunity, it is possible to save countless hours and directly ascend to the Heavenly Sovereign realm.

How could anyone not be tempted by this?
