Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

The Divine Martial Emperor stared intently at the spear he had thrust out, refusing to believe that he still couldn't stop the sword energy this time.

However, just as his spear energy touched the Blood Soul Slash's sword energy, it dissipated instantly, just like the previous attacks.

At this moment, the Divine Martial Emperor became extremely agitated. He didn't know what was going on or why Lu Chen's power had such a terrifying suppressive force on him.

Logically speaking, shouldn't the power of the Heavenly Demon restrain the spiritual power of cultivators? Why is his Heavenly Demon power being completely suppressed by the power used by Lu Chen?

What went wrong?

Soon, the Divine Martial Emperor's gaze fell on the four hundred Great Emperors behind Lu Chen. He suddenly realized something: Lu Chen had gathered the power of four hundred Great Emperors and collected all kinds of Great Dao power.

Perhaps the power generated by these Great Dao forces after they are mixed together is different from that of pure spiritual power, and has instead suppressed the power of the Heavenly Demon. After considering this possibility, the Divine Martial Emperor immediately ordered all the Heavenly Demon Emperors to attack Lu Chen's Spirit Gathering Array.

In an instant, the Heavenly Demons surged towards Lu Chen's back like a tidal wave.

However, when those demons collided with the sword energy of Blood Soul Slash, they all turned into dust. But it was precisely because of the successive attacks of these demons that the power of Blood Soul Slash was greatly weakened.

Just as the Blood Soul Slash was about to touch the Divine Martial Emperor, a layer of blood-red light suddenly appeared on the Divine Martial Emperor's body. Then, a huge, blood-red armored dharma image appeared on his body, and Lu Chen's sword energy struck the armor.

When the sword energy collided with the blood-red armor, a violent explosion was instantly generated. The Divine Martial Emperor was blasted back dozens of light-years as a result, and the shockwave from the explosion destroyed all the surrounding demons and various worlds.

In an instant, dust filled the entire star field, as if a sandstorm had struck.

Although the explosion was extremely powerful, Lu Chen sensed that the Divine Martial Emperor was unharmed. His blood-red armor only had a crack, and he himself was not injured.

This……

Lu Chen was slightly taken aback. Although he hadn't used his full strength, his power was extremely terrifyingly suppressive to the Heavenly Demon, yet he still couldn't defeat the Divine Martial Emperor.

What level of magical artifact is the armor worn by the Divine Martial Emperor? Why didn't the Divine Martial Emperor take out this armor when he was in the outer realm last time?

Seeing that Lu Chen's sword strike only left a crack on his Heavenly Armor, the Divine Martial Emperor laughed heartily, as if he understood something.

Although Lu Chen's power exerted a terrifying suppressive force on him, that power could not have much effect on the Emperor-level weapon he was forging. Fortunately, during his more than ten years of seclusion, he did not just focus on cultivation, but also spent some time forging Emperor-level weapons, otherwise he would probably have really perished today.

The Divine Martial Emperor then asked, "Lu Chen, how is the imperial weapon I forged?"

Upon hearing the words of the Divine Martial Emperor, Lu Chen chuckled. So it was an imperial weapon crafted by the Divine Martial Emperor; no wonder it could defend against his sword strike.

However, to be fair, he didn't use his full strength in that sword strike, nor did he fully unleash the power of the Shattering God Sword.

The Shattering God Sword is a celestial artifact; if fully activated, even an imperial artifact would be unable to withstand it.

The main reason Lu Chen didn't fully activate it was because he was worried that the power would be too great and directly cut out a cosmic abyss.

There is a strange black aura in the abyss of the universe. He is worried that if the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty comes into contact with this black aura, he will also turn into a demon.

Now that the Divine Martial Emperor possesses an Imperial Weapon, it seems he has no choice but to use his full strength.

Lu Chen chuckled and then said, "Let's see if you can hold them off any longer."

As he spoke, Lu Chen mobilized the power of the seven colors, then the primordial power within his body, and finally infused the spiritual power within his body into the Shattered God Sword.

After the three forces merged into the Shattered God Sword, the Shattered God Sword immediately emitted a dazzling white light.

Feeling the oppressive aura emanating from the Shattered God Sword, the Divine Martial Emperor trembled.

The mere presence of this sword made him feel that his life was threatened.

He now only felt that he might not be able to withstand the next sword strike.

No, this can't go on any longer.

The Divine Martial Emperor then mobilized his primordial power as well. After all, he was already the Heavenly Emperor, so he could obviously mobilize more primordial power than Lu Chen.

However, for some reason, when he tried to mobilize the power of origin, he found that the origin of this universe was very hostile to him, as if it was refusing to let him use the power of origin.

The Divine Martial Emperor roared, "I am the Heavenly Emperor!!!"

After saying this, the Divine Martial Emperor frantically drew upon the power of origin, but the feeling of being rejected became increasingly obvious.

The Divine Martial Emperor was extremely displeased. He was now the Heavenly Emperor, yet he was still not recognized by this universe.

Why should I?!

Lu Chen, who is not the Heavenly Emperor, can mobilize the power of origin, while I am restricted by this universe when using the power of origin.

Thinking of this, the anger in the heart of the Divine Martial Emperor was completely ignited. If this universe did not give him the power of origin, then this universe should not continue to exist.

At this moment, the Divine Martial Emperor seemed to sense a faint cosmic consciousness, which was like a pair of human eyes, staring straight at him.

The Divine Martial Emperor sneered, "Since you are unwilling to give me your primordial power, then I will completely replace you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Divine Martial Emperor prepared to make a move against that cosmic consciousness.

Lu Chen was stunned in the void.

In his eyes, a huge cosmic black hole appeared above the Divine Martial Emperor, and a pair of blood-red eyes seemed to appear in the black hole, surrounded by thin red filaments.

Lu Chen wondered to himself, could it be that the Great Cataclysm of the Epoch has begun?

This is troublesome!

With this in mind, Lu Chen prepared to have the Great Xia Dynasty's fleet withdraw.

However, he then discovered that the Heavenly Demons of the Divine Moon Dynasty seemed completely oblivious to the Divine Martial Emperor's strange behavior and were still frantically surging towards the Great Xia Dynasty's fleet. At the same time, the more than one hundred Great Emperors of the Great Xia Dynasty responsible for protecting the Spirit Gathering Array also took the initiative to meet them, and a great battle broke out between the two sides.

Lu Chen seemed to understand something, and then he transmitted his voice to the Thunder Emperor, "Thunder, do you see the black hole above the Divine Martial Emperor's head?"

The Thunder Emperor paused for a moment, "Black hole? What black hole?"

Then the Thunder Emperor specifically sensed it, but saw nothing. He only saw the Divine Martial Emperor floating in the void, with the Heavenly Demon Power on his body becoming thicker and thicker. However, the Divine Martial Emperor's face was very distorted, and he looked very uncomfortable.

Lu Chen thought to himself, no wonder neither side had any intention of escaping; it turned out they simply couldn't see each other. (End of Chapter)
