With the revival of spiritual energy, I cultivated the Great Emperor's Technique on Blue Star.

The Myriad Dao Stele hangs above Lin Yan's head, its ancient and simple imperial characters flowing with the eternal radiance of the imperial way. Each brilliant character floats in the air, like an inextinguishable sun, capable of cleansing all darkness in the world.

Lin Yan stood in the void, his "Former Word Secret" activated to its limit, gaining insight into the past, present, and future. His entire being exuded an indescribable divine aura of the Great Dao, and the void beneath his feet trembled slightly, as if the rules of heaven and earth of the entire Jiangcheng were resonating with him.

That was definitely not the kind of aura that an ordinary peak fourth-tier martial artist could unleash.

"A mere fourth-order cultivator dares to defy the heavens and earth, despicable enough to shake the fifth-order Great Dao? Die!"

The Lord of the Eternal Silence Pavilion had bloodshot eyes, completely consumed by endless killing intent and rage. He had long since fused with the essence blood of the Shadow Erosion Clan, shedding most of his human form, and was no longer considered a pure human. His primordial aura at the peak of the fifth rank was as vast as the sea, far surpassing that of ordinary people of the same rank.

Endless black demonic flames shot into the sky from his body, igniting all the Shadow Erosion Clan Dao patterns imprinted on his body. Countless sharp claws woven from the Dark Shadow Dao tore through the void and crushed the airflow, carrying with them a hidden and eerie Dao power and killing intent. They locked down all of Lin Yan's escape space from all directions and bombarded him in an instant.

Each shadowy claw contains the terrifying power and will of a peak fifth-tier warrior, capable of easily tearing apart the physical body of a fourth-tier warrior and shattering their Dao foundation and divine soul!

The sky seemed to collapse and the earth to cave in; dark clouds loomed over the city, and a suffocating sense of impending doom enveloped the entire city, causing all mortals to tremble involuntarily, almost collapsing to the ground.

Young prodigies like Xiao Qingxuan and Bai Chen, who had just emerged from the battlefield secret realm, were tense, their pupils contracted, and their hearts were filled with shock. They prided themselves on being able to fight against those in higher realms, but in the aftermath of the battle between Lin Yan and the Pavilion Master of Yongji Pavilion, they didn't even have the right to look him in the eye!

This is no longer a contemporary, but a young Daoist master walking among mortals, a young Great Emperor!

Faced with deadly attacks from all directions, Lin Yan remained calm and composed throughout, his eyes showing no ripples. Just as countless shadowy claws were about to reach him and engulf his figure,

hum!

Suddenly, a great roar emanated from Lin Yan's body, resounding throughout the heavens and the earth. His aura underwent a sudden change, as if he had reached the pinnacle of sublimation. His combat power increased rapidly, but his cultivation level did not break through.

In the universe of Shrouding the Heavens, there is a forbidden realm called the Divine Forbidden Realm.

According to ancient legends, the Seven Forbidden Zones and the Eight Forbidden Zones represent the pinnacle of a genius's abilities, enabling them to transcend the seventh and eighth realms and defeat powerful enemies. The Divine Forbidden Zone, however, transcends the Eight Forbidden Zones. It is a forbidden realm opened by the extreme number nine, a special state that is the "ultimate threshold" that mortals can reach.

Since ancient times, only those who have attained the Dao and become Emperors can reside permanently in the Divine Forbidden Realm, wielding power over all paths and suppressing all heavens. Those who have not yet become Emperors, even the most extraordinary geniuses who have shaken the ages, only a very few are qualified to briefly stand in this realm. A single moment in the Divine Forbidden Realm can crush countless peers and bridge the chasm between realms!

At this time, Lin Yan was far from reaching the threshold of divine prohibition, but he had already knocked on the door of "prohibition".

The secret realm magic system originating from the Shrouding the Heavens universe can be considered a dimensional reduction attack on the martial arts of the present Blue Star. The Daoist scriptures inherited from the Moral Celestial Venerable of the mythological era can be considered a dimensional restriction. The Pre-Word Secret created by the Tribulation Celestial Venerable can also be considered a dimensional restriction. The divine sense power that is far superior to others can also be considered a dimensional restriction.

If Lin Yan didn't lack any kind of divine physique, such as the Ancient Sacred Body or the Innate Dao Embryo, his physical strength could also be considered top-tier!

However, with his fourth-order perfected body (Divine Bridge Realm), he stepped into the four forbidden domains and was able to cross four minor realms. Naturally, he could be fearless of the fifth-order peak Eternal Silence Pavilion Master and achieve true cross-realm killing of enemies.

As for the Devouring Heaven Array Pattern, on Blue Star today, it is absolutely a powerful weapon that can sweep away all enemies in the world. It cannot be regarded by conventional means. Even Lin Yan himself has never truly activated the power of this Corner Emperor Array, and has always used it as a cheat device for cultivation.

It should be noted that in the historical trajectory of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, when the Ancient Jiang Family rescued the God King Jiang Taixu, they had used a corner of the Emperor's Path Killing Array, but it still took the combined efforts of several powerful beings from the Immortal Platform to barely destroy it.

If it were the martial arts realm of Blue Star, who knows what level it would be.

The void around Lin Yan distorted, and within a radius of a hundred feet, everything became his domain. Whether it was the Shadow Dao power of the Shadow Erosion Clan from beyond the domain or the martial will of a fifth-order peak, all the shadow claws that rushed towards him were restrained by an invisible field, layer by layer, stagnating and disintegrating one by one.

"How...how is this possible?!"

In mid-air, the Pavilion Master of the Eternal Silence Pavilion, who was frantically activating his supernatural powers, stared blankly. The rage and ferocity on his face were frozen in that instant, replaced by fear and disbelief from the depths of his soul.

Since the revival of spiritual energy, he had considered himself to be well-informed and knowledgeable, having read countless ancient books and even come into contact with forbidden secrets from beyond the realm, but he had never seen such a change in Lin Yan.

This is not a realm of martial arts at all, but a forbidden realm unknown to anyone!

"Is there really such a tradition on Earth?"

He murmured softly, unable to accept the fact.

If he had known earlier that Blue Star possessed such a terrifying heritage, why would he have abandoned his human bloodline, betrayed Great Xia, become a lackey of an alien race, and endured countless painful transformations to finally obtain the power of the fifth-tier peak, believing himself to have reached the pinnacle of Blue Star?

But this young man before him, by simply displaying this special aura, completely crushed his life's cultivation into nothingness.

Lin Yan's gaze was cold and sinister, with thousands of rays of light descending from his body. The Myriad Dao Stele above his head roared incessantly, and countless imperial runes rose and fell, illuminating the heavens.

He gently raised his hand and then lowered it. With a loud boom, the invisible field that had bound the area within a hundred feet suddenly contracted, and a heavy pressure that faintly exceeded the limit of the fifth rank spread out. The originally rampant shadow claws instantly melted away like bubbles, and the shadow path and martial will that covered the sky were all annihilated and returned to nothingness.

The Pavilion Master of Eternal Silence trembled violently, and every inch of his flesh and bones emitted a chilling cracking sound. The Dao patterns that had been created after merging with the Shadow Erosion Clan's bloodline were dim and almost disappeared.

"puff!"

He could not withstand such pressure and injuries, coughing up mouthfuls of blood. His energy and spirit were like a river bursting its banks, rapidly declining, and his once magnificent aura at the peak of the fifth rank plummeted.

In just a few moves, this executioner who had defected to the outer realms and wreaked havoc on Blue Star for many years was completely suppressed by Lin Yan, reduced to a near-death body, seemingly powerless to fight back. Everyone watching below stared wide-eyed, revealing extreme shock and ecstasy.
