Chapter 151 A Sudden Appearance, Shaking the Big Dipper (4k)

Upon seeing this imposing man, the other factions all became serious.

"How did it get here? Why didn't I notice?"

Qianlun the Great Sage broke out in a cold sweat, looking in surprise at the sudden appearance of Gai Jiuyou.

You know, he was holding a half-activated Wanlong Bell, how could someone have gotten so close to him so silently?

Especially...

Listening to the endless, wondrous Dao sounds and thunderous battle spirit emanating from Gai Jiuyou, which were inaudible to ordinary people but deafening to these Great Sages who had touched the Great Dao.

How did such a huge, undisguised megaphone arrive so quietly?

Ji Zi looked at Gai Jiuyou and said in a deep voice, "Senior, we have witnessed enough tragedies today."

"If the fighting continues, the hatred will only go on endlessly, and the entire Beidou system will be shattered."

"If you have any demands, you can discuss them after everyone has calmed down. Why start another fight?"

Silently, Ji Zi held the Void Mirror and stood facing Sha Xiao, surrounding Gai Jiuyou in the middle.

"This prince actually spoke up for him?"

The Great Sage Qianlun looked at Ji Zi with some disbelief.

No, bro!

Sha Xiao just forced you to expel more than a million people from your own clan and kill more than ten Immortal Platform cultivators. Now you're telling me you're going to speak up for Sha Xiao?

This world is crazy; a mouse is a bridesmaid for a cat.

The West Emperor Tower remained silent, yet its form materialized, standing quietly.

"The Great Sage, who is eight or nine thousand years old?"

The Great Sage Qianlun was somewhat shaken as he looked at Gai Jiuyou, whose fighting spirit was surging and who brooked no refusal.

At this age, meaning that this person almost became a Great Sage under the most severe suppression of the Great Emperor after his death?

Such beings are rare even among ancient royal families.

First, Sha Xiao, a super young man whose vital energy was no more than fifty years old, directly pioneered a new method and came up with the miraculous operation of intercepting part of the Great Emperor's Dao Fruit.

Then, another genius just casually appeared among the human race?

"Humans are truly a terrifying race. No wonder His Majesty the Dragon Emperor was worried about the ancient races back then."

The Great Sage Qianlun sighed, looking at everyone present with a hint of fear.

What terrified him most was not Sha Xiao or Gai Jiuyou's genius, nor Ji Zi's bloodline, which was in no way inferior to that of the princess.

What terrified him was that these people all considered themselves to be human.

It should be understood that among the ancient emperors and emperors, countless races, after becoming supreme clans, subconsciously believed that they were different from other races.

Those powerful clans will migrate over time and form their own races, becoming one of the myriad races.

Only humans, only these freaks, still believe that they are the same race as those mortals.

Jiang Yifei calmed the blood tiger on his body and looked at Sha Xiao with some worry: "Senior Hengzhou, if something really happens, please lend him a hand."

Beneath the Emperor's Sword, the old lord of Zhongzhou rubbed his teary eyes repeatedly: "It's him, it's definitely him! The pride of our Zhongzhou, a peerless hero who surpasses even the Nine Netherworlds. I saw his portrait when I was a child!"

Everyone thought he had died on the imperial road, but unexpectedly, he's still alive...

The previous emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty stared blankly at the figure, muttering to himself, "How... how could he be at this level?"

"Back then, when he attempted to become a Great Emperor after a thousand years, everyone was eagerly anticipating it!"

"Shouldn't he be at least a near-nine-year student?"

Seeing Gai Jiuyou's surging fighting spirit and seemingly unyielding demeanor, Sha Xiao thought for a moment and communicated with Gai Jiuyou through divine sense: "It's possible, but only one strike. I only have the strength for one strike left. Moreover, due to my limitations, this strike cannot fully demonstrate the Azure Emperor's true level."

"That's enough!"

Gai Jiuyou placed his hands on the air and smiled with satisfaction.

He had seen it clearly on his way here: although Sha Xiao held the Azure Emperor's Heavenly Heart Mark, he was actually just a mechanical karaoke machine.

Moreover, it's a mechanical karaoke machine with extremely low power.

Let alone actually delivering a blow that resembled the Emperor's attack.

Even if you asked him to change his moves, he couldn't do it.

The main point is that you only need to reach a certain level of mastery; the limits of physical exertion and control over the soul restrict your performance.

But that's enough. Unless you're fighting a Great Emperor, you don't need that much understanding of the Great Dao or combat techniques.

Look, this is the Great Emperor's art of slaughter.

Look, this is the Emperor's Heavenly Heart Mark.

When the two are combined, even if only the power of a Sea of ​​Wheels level person is used, it can directly kill a Saint.

What do you mean by "not proficient in the Great Dao" and "rigid in combat"? You're not an emperor, buddy, I'll just send a powerful brick flying at you!

And Gai Jiuyou needs just such an opponent.

He achieved enlightenment in an unconventional way; even though his divine power was worn down to the level of a Great Sage due to Dao injuries, his realm remained unchanged.

If Sha Xiao could truly unleash a complete Emperor's strike, he certainly wouldn't have come so easily.

Gai Jiuyou wanted to challenge the Great Emperor, but he wasn't a madman seeking death.

Otherwise, if he just stands inside the penalty area, would he be afraid of not being able to fight the Emperor?

Gai Jiuyou is currently stuck in a certain realm, exerting a lot of effort, and needs this kind of duel that doesn't change moves, which is practically like feeding him moves.

"Then I'll begin."

Sha Xiao said in a low voice.

Instantly, everyone held their breath and raised their vigilance to the highest level.

Beneath this frozen sky, an extraordinary duel is unfolding.

One of them is an unparalleled genius who achieved enlightenment through unconventional means within a thousand years of being suppressed by the Great Emperor.

One is a scaled-down version of the Great Emperor who borrowed the Great Emperor's heart and wielded the Imperial Weapon.

The battle between the two can almost prove whether the ancient emperor was indeed a one-time, eternal, and invincible figure.

This battle will surely be recorded in history.

Gai Jiuyou, this immortal old man who has weathered countless storms and witnessed ancient times, now exudes a vast and ancient aura, and a chilling battle melody resounds.

He plucked the strings of the Great Dao with both hands, each movement seemingly containing the ultimate truths of heaven and earth, capable of stirring up the vicissitudes of eternity and igniting the fighting spirit of all beings.

Gai Jiuyou closed his eyes and concentrated, slowly raising his hands before suddenly slashing them down.

"Clang clang clang—"

—

A magnificent and moving celestial melody, perfect for transcending tribulations, suddenly resounded.

The notes leaped and danced, carrying the power to destroy everything; they were the culmination of his life's cultivation and insights, poured out without reservation.

"This is... an alternative way of proving enlightenment!?"

Jiang Hengzhou exclaimed in surprise.

As a former comrade-in-arms of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, he had seen the Chaotic Ancient Emperor in a similar state.

That was the darkest moment before the Demonic Embryo's ultimate leap. At that time, the Chaotic Ancient Emperor's strength was extremely unstable; sometimes he could rival an emperor, and sometimes he was even weaker than a Great Sage.

The current Gai Jiuyou is in the same situation. Due to the cruel Dao injuries, his foundation has been constantly being worn away, and he appears to only have the strength of a Great Sage.

But as soon as this celestial melody for transcending tribulation began to play, he knew that his true strength far surpassed that of the Great Sage.

His understanding of the Great Dao was almost only half a step weaker than Sha Xiao's, who held the Azure Emperor's Heavenly Heart Seal.

On the other side, Sha Xiao was not afraid at all, and decisively poured all the lightning into Wan Qing Immortal Gu.

At the cost of having only thirty seconds left, the Dao Fruits within the Myriad Green Immortal Gu and the Azure Emperor's Soldier resonated, allowing the Azure Emperor's Dao Fruits to be mobilized more effectively.

A faint gray light surrounded him, which was the power of the Azure Emperor's Dao Fruit surging within him.

The Azure Emperor's Great Dao draped him in a layer of hazy, chaotic armor, an indestructible armor whose protection was no less than that of any imperial weapon.

Sha Xiao's eyes were piercing, and a resolute smile played on his lips.

He formed hand seals, drawing upon the purest primordial energy of heaven and earth—the energy of thunder—transforming countless chaotic lightning bolts into a surging torrent, which he then inhaled into his body in one breath.

"hiss--"

For a moment, everyone gasped.

No, you're being way too brave!

This method of mobilizing vital energy is certainly the fastest, but it is also the most dangerous.

If you're not careful, it will bloom right in the center.

So you, kid, relying on your powerful Holy Body and abundant blood energy, just went straight for it, huh?

Immediately, Sha Xiao murmured, and nine characters containing the supreme laws of the demon race were uttered from his mouth.

Each word was as heavy as a mountain, carrying an irresistible pressure that instantly suppressed the surrounding void, causing the heavens and earth to tremble.

The nine characters for "Emperor" were like nine ancient demon emperors descending, each exuding an earth-shattering aura.

The Demon Emperor's Nine Slashes merged together, echoing Gai Jiuyou's Tribulation-Crossing Immortal Melody, yet they also collided, igniting a dazzling yet extremely dangerous flame.

This chosen battlefield seems to have become a stage where the ancient and the new, the immortal path and the demonic path intertwine and collide.

Every inch of space was torn apart, and chaotic energy, enough to crush a planet, fought and clashed here.

This is a battle that transcends the mundane, a contest between the Dao of a great emperor who died many years ago and an unorthodox Daoist.

This was practically an imperial war, destined to be recorded in history and passed down through the ages.

"It was worth it, it was worth it."

Although the former lord of Zhongzhou Prefecture was a saint, he could not understand the clash between Sha Xiao and Gai Jiuyou.

He could only record the collision of the two supreme Daos in a simple way by observing the changes in chaotic energy and the flow of void within that small piece of the world.

If Sha Xiao and Gai Jiuyou were to be even slightly careless, the aftershocks of either of their two deadly attacks could instantly reduce the entire Eastern Wilderness to dust.

In the blink of an eye, the clash between Qingdi's Demon Emperor Nine Slashes and Gai Jiuyou's Tribulation Immortal Melody lasted only a few seconds before a winner was decided.

In just a few seconds, they actually collided thousands of times.

"Tick-tock..."

'

Gai Jiuyou's ten fingers exploded, blood dripping from his cracked palms into the chaos and disappearing. The Celestial Melody of Tribulation also ceased.

He lost.

Qianlun Dasheng was not surprised.

"fine."

Seeing that there was no further life-or-death crisis, Himeko breathed a sigh of relief.

"If there were no serious injury, the outcome of the game would be quite predictable."

Jiang Hengzhou, who had fought alongside the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, gave him a very high evaluation with regret.

"Cough cough..."

'

Blood trickled from the corner of Gai Jiuyou's mouth, but his face was filled with pleasure, showing no trace of the bitterness of defeat.

"I see, I understand now."

With his obsession gone, the pent-up emotions in Gai Jiuyou's heart dissipated, and he suddenly felt that the world was vast and boundless.

He felt that if he had been in this state eight thousand years ago, he would have already attained enlightenment despite the constraints of the Great Dao.

"It's all about timing and fate."

In the blink of an eye, Gai Jiuyou transformed back into that hunched, sickly old man.

But at this moment, his eyes were no longer cloudy; instead, they were filled with light.

As the Immortal King's lightning shadow dissipated and the Great Emperor's oppressive aura dissipated, revealing Sha Xiao, Gai Jiuyou chuckled and said, "Old man Gai Jiuyou, young man, thank you for granting this old man's impolite request. I can never repay your kindness in continuing the Dao. From now on, you can discuss anything with me."

Upon hearing Gai Jiuyou's words, Sha Xiao's face immediately lit up with sunshine.

good good!

With Lao Gai in hand, I have the world at my fingertips!

Now, who in the entire BeiDou system dares to stop me?

If it weren't for the fact that the Myriad Green Immortal Gu requires the blood of the Azure Emperor to activate, and its current level isn't high enough, Gai Jiuyou's current state wouldn't be sufficient to directly skip the ultimate step.

Moreover, to be honest, he and Emperor Wanqing are not very compatible; one plus one would actually be less than one.

Sha Xiao wished he could hand over the Myriad Green Immortal Gu to Old Gai right now and create a great emperor for the world first!

"The Sacred Land of Myriad Beginnings, the Sacred Land of Yin and Yang, do you need me to erase them for you?"

Gai Jiuyou coughed, glanced at the Supreme Elders who had caused the incident, and said calmly.

The feeling was as if you were asking your grandson if he wanted candy, full of kindness and doting affection.

With a "snap," the hearts of those people from the holy land instantly turned cold.

The Immortal King's lightning shadow on Sha Xiao's body flickered and dissipated. He quickly put away the eye-catching Myriad Azure Immortal Gu, glanced at the Supreme Elders, and said, "Forget it, today is a good day for the senior to continue the Great Dao, so let's not create any more killing karma."

He glanced around and looked at Ji Zi, saying, "From this day forward, the area where the Thunder Forest is located in the Southern Region of the Eastern Wilderness is my territory. What do you say?"

"Good, fellow Daoist, you only punished the ringleaders; you are truly compassionate and benevolent."

Seeing that Sha Xiao had taken a step back, Ji Zi quickly nodded in agreement.

In fact, even if Sha Xiao didn't say it, he was also preparing to reduce the size of the Ji family.

The Ji family has reached a point where it needs to be rebuilt, but he has few trustworthy protectors.

The Void Mirror is good, but it cannot revive forever.

Sha Xiao and his group might be useful.

Although Ji Zi was kind-hearted and compassionate like her father, she was ruthless in her methods.

"Go back and tell your power: any cultivator of the same generation from within the last thousand years who wishes to retaliate is welcome. But if anyone dares to bully the weak, this will be your fate in Yao Guang today!"

Sha Xiao shouted sternly, no longer paying attention to them.

Their fate of destruction was already sealed long ago.

They were left behind only to give Ye Fan and his companions a chance to vent their anger and serve as their training opponents.

The Great Sage Qianlun's face was serious. Sha Xiao's combination of strength and gentleness made him even more wary.

In the struggle for the imperial throne, it is rare for a single person to break through; most people have friends or powerful forces to help them.

Previously, seeing Sha Xiao's relentless and ruthless purges, Qian Lun Da Sheng wasn't too worried. Now, however, he genuinely wanted to eliminate a major enemy for his princess ahead of schedule.

Unfortunately, not only did the princess refuse, but he also didn't know if he could defeat Sha Xiao, who seemed to be a reincarnation of the Azure Emperor.

Princess Wanlong looked at Sha Xiao and chuckled, "It's just a trivial skill. His cultivation method is the true foundation of his power."

"Let's go. This place isn't suitable for us to stay any longer. We'll have plenty of time to meet them later."

The Great Sage Qianlun warily looked at the Western Emperor Tower that had silently descended behind them, and said solemnly, "Yes."

Just now, Sha Xiaocai used invincible methods to annihilate a major sect and an ancient sage.

There are currently six imperial weapons present, and nearly ten imperial weapons are observing the battle.

Aside from the Azure Emperor Weapon in Sha Xiao's hands, they are the only other races. If they don't leave now, even though Qian Lun is a Great Sage and wields an Emperor Weapon, he can't help but worry about something going wrong.

Wanlongling shook its head and tail, transforming into a purple true dragon, and led Princess Wanlong and Great Sage Qianlun through the void to depart.

With a soft "hum," the Supreme Emperor Sword carried away the previous emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and the old master of the Central Plains' Strange Scholars' Mansion.

Ji Zi paused, looked towards the Feathered Immortal Valley, and then disappeared with the Void Mirror.

"Come visit Yaochi sometime. I have something you might need here."

The Western Emperor Tower sent a gentle divine thought, which then disappeared without a trace.

In Zhongzhou, the leaders of the four great dynasties all breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.

In the blink of an eye, news of Sha Xiao's explosive performance in this operation spread like wildfire.

"call"

On the nameless, desolate mountain, the old quasi-emperor of the Cai family also relaxed.

He squinted, stroked his sparse beard, and sighed, "It's been a long time, Brother Gai..."

After everyone left, Sha Xiao collapsed from exhaustion. Activating the Myriad Green Immortal Gu was no easy task; it had worn him out.

"Oh, leaves..."

""

Panting, Sha Xiao waved and smiled at Ye Fan, who was rushing towards her.
