Chapter 1711: Chapter 70: Dominating Martial King’s Tomb
Chu Ming had high expectations for the Divine Artifact mentioned by Emperor Jianyuan.
The gap between her and Chu Xisheng lay, at least partially, in the artifacts.
Moreover, she felt a subtle curiosity.
What exactly was the last step that Emperor Jianyuan mentioned?
The current top eight on the Human Clan Heavenly List all possess Super First Grade strength.
And even if the top ten haven’t reached it, they aren’t far off.
Could this last step allow her to surpass such a huge gap?
As Chu Ming pondered this, she suddenly felt her heart race, inexplicably filling her with some unease.
She noticed a finely carved sarcophagus placed in front of Qin Muge’s tombstone.
The style of this sarcophagus was slightly inferior to what was used in Qin Muge’s funeral back then, yet it was still of ducal specifications, with five layers inside and out.
But just as she was about to ask for whom this sarcophagus was prepared, she saw Emperor Jianyuan frowning, gazing far into the heavens.
"Your matter will be discussed later."
He sneered coldly: "We have guests."
As he finished his words, twelve strands of golden dragon energy suddenly surged into the sky, transforming into enormous hands reaching for a certain point in the sky.
Simultaneously, the Sun in the eastern sky suddenly enlarged several times, searing the heavens.
At the same time, a blaze of golden red fire ignited, setting a thirty-mile expanse of the Void aflame.
Around Emperor Jianyuan, in addition to the twelve golden dragons coiling and circling, appeared two huge Divine Birds, one golden and one black.
One was the Great Sun Golden Crow, exuding boundless light, with a grand and splendid aura.
The other was Taiyin Youying, suppressed under the Golden Crow’s dazzling light, seemingly not impressive in momentum, yet instilling an extra sense of terrifying heart palpitations.
Half-kneeling on the ground, Chu Ming’s pupils slightly contracted, feeling secretly alarmed.
Unknowingly, her Majesty’s strength had greatly increased.
Just now, the display of skill he showed clearly possessed Near-God capabilities!
And standing not far away, Zong Shenhua, Wan Qi Luohou, and others all revealed a trace of abnormality.
Only National Master Yu Kunlun maintained a consistent expression.
In the next instant, a ’boom’ echoed through the sky.
All the flames were instantly extinguished.
The sun, which had been magnified by Emperor Jianyuan’s Heavenly Rules Power, also shrank back to its normal size.
At the same time, a woman in a white dress appeared in the sky.
Her face was serene, her posture graceful, and her demeanor transcendent, like an immortal.
With her appearance, an infinite Divine Might swept across, putting tremendous pressure on the Divine Soul Thought of all the surrounding imperial guards.
They all bled from the nose and mouth, sweating profusely from their foreheads and backs, nearly crushed to the ground by the powerful Divine Might.
Fortunately, at this moment, twelve golden Dragon Pillars appeared behind Emperor Jianyuan, supporting the sky above, greatly reducing the pressure on everyone.
They all frantically activated the Emperor’s Secret Technique to counteract this vast Divine Might.
The woman in the white dress paid no attention to the others.
Her gaze fixedly scrutinized Emperor Jianyuan and the two Divine Birds manifesting behind him.
"Your Majesty has indeed completed Yin Yang Unity!"
She almost spat out these last four words, her eyes already cold with killing intent: "I thought after the Cang Province battle, Your Majesty had learned your lesson. Yin Yang Unification is forbidden by All Gods, touching it means death! Why is Your Majesty so unwise?"
Emperor Jianyuan chuckled indifferently, flipping his robe sleeves as he faced the white-clothed woman: "If I’m not mistaken, the Divine is indeed the Master Ruyi Qingjing?"
He couldn’t help but feel emotional.
Twenty years ago, how could he have imagined that his cultivation would also reach the Near-God Realm, qualifying him to confront the Gods.
Over the twenty years, he had experienced many trials and tribulations, paid a lot, yet ultimately walked this path.
Opposite, Shen Jingli remained expressionless, with no intention of responding.
Instead, the sky above gradually dimmed.
Though it was noon, with the Sun high in the sky, the surrounding world for thousands of miles grew as dark as night.
At the same time, countless Stars appeared in the night sky.
Beams of Star Power descended from high above, falling on Emperor Jianyuan.
Emperor Jianyuan initially seemed indifferent, but soon his complexion began to pale.
Each beam of Star Power that descended exerted great pressure on Jianyuan’s Primordial Spirit.
Thousands of Star Power beams converged, Emperor Jianyuan felt as if dozens of mountains were pressing on his head.
The sheer magnitude of this power far surpassed the Divine Intent Saber of Chu Xisheng by a hundredfold.
Emperor Jianyuan’s Qi-Blood nearly stagnated, and his bones began to ’crack’ all over.
"You have no idea the foolishness you’ve committed."
Shen Jingli, hands behind her back, displayed arrogance: "Considering Your Majesty’s ignorance, perhaps deceived by miscreants. As long as you abandon the Extreme Yin Power within you, I and the Gods can overlook your disrespect."
Her eyes held contempt and disdain.
This contemporary Human Emperor was far weaker than she’d assumed.
Though he indeed mastered Yin Yang Unification, possessing Near-God Rank strength, he had lost the foundation to oppose All Gods.
His Emperor’s Sword could no longer gather Human Clan’s fighting spirit, unifying the Human Clan’s will to resist All Gods.
This emperor was said to be one of the few illustrious rulers of Divine Continent Clan over thousands of years, yet who would’ve thought the people’s belief in him was so fragile.
Shen Jingli couldn’t help but feel a touch of impatience.
In her eyes, this Emperor Jianyuan posed no threat at all.
Everything he possessed now was merely a castle of sand on the shore, which she could easily topple.
