Chapter 134: The Reincarnation Immortal Emperor
Moonchaser said nothing.
Vaelor took her silence as confirmation.
A chill immediately ran through him.
Swordformless and Zahra were from the same sect.
The Infinite Realms and the countless lower worlds were unimaginably vast. Could such a coincidence truly exist?
Impossible.
This was no coincidence.
Two sources of the Imperial Calamity appearing together could only mean one thing.
Someone was manipulating everything from the shadows.
Could it be the Primordial Kings?
No.
After only a moment of thought, Vaelor dismissed that possibility.
The Primordial Kings already knew that a Fallen Immortal like him was in the Celestial Arc Realm. They would never take the risk of sending both sources of the Imperial Calamity directly before him.
Which meant there was another hidden hand behind this.
Vaelor’s heart tightened.
He immediately stopped holding back.
There was no need for more words.
If someone was truly controlling the source of the Imperial Calamity from behind the scenes, they would reveal themselves now.
If not, he would take these two away.
The source of the Imperial Calamity concerned the fate of The Infinite Realms.
He had waited countless lifetimes for this chance.
Buzz!
Boundless immortal radiance poured from the ancient wheel.
The power of reincarnation swept forward.
Annihilation and time were both terrifying Divine Powers, but Vaelor could unleash the might of an immortal.
How could Immortal Realm Ascendants resist a true immortal?
That gap was not something two Divine Powers could bridge.
More importantly, Vaelor was far stronger than an ordinary immortal.
Moonchaser’s expression turned grave.
"Junior Brother, be careful."
"Got it!"
Cloudvault shouted.
The two attacked together with everything they had.
Escaping was impossible.
Their only option was to fight head on.
The power of annihilation and a ribbon of time swept forward.
Boom!
In an instant, brilliant light shot into the nine heavens, stirring the stars across the galaxy.
The unstoppable force of reincarnation shattered every technique in its path and swept toward Cloudvault and Moonchaser.
Then, suddenly, a figure appeared.
Yin and Yang Qi coiled around Caelum’s hand.
He flicked his finger.
Boom!
Heaven, earth, all things, and every Divine Power were forced back into their Five Elements state by the Yin and Yang Qi.
The endless immortal radiance and reincarnation force vanished in an instant.
"Pff!"
Vaelor spat blood.
With no strength to resist, he was blasted ten thousand miles away.
Even the ancient wheel behind him dimmed instantly.
"What?!"
His eyes filled with disbelief.
Shock gripped his mind.
And beneath that shock was terror.
That power was far too terrifying.
How could someone unleash such strength in a lower world?
Wasn’t the Celestial Arc Realm protected by the power of the First Worldbreaker Physique?
That said, Caelum had never once felt the suppression of the First Worldbreaker Physique in the Celestial Arc Realm.
Perhaps it was because he also possessed the Worldbreaker Divine Physique.
Perhaps because he had not yet become an immortal.
Or perhaps it had something to do with the Secret of Transcendence.
The reason remained unknown.
"Master!"
"Master!"
Moonchaser and Cloudvault were overjoyed when they saw Caelum.
Only then did they finally relax.
The might of an immortal was truly beyond what they could currently withstand.
Torin and the others were even more shocked than Vaelor.
Torin recognized Caelum instantly.
He cried out,
"The Divine Firmament Heir?!"
"How is that possible?"
Lady Moonveil was especially stunned.
"Wasn’t he supposed to have Ascended to the Immortal Realm long ago?"
After becoming an immortal, one had to Ascend to the Immortal Realm.
That was common knowledge.
Yet Caelum’s appearance had shattered that understanding.
They could not comprehend what was going on with Vaelor and Caelum.
Nor could they make sense of the situation unfolding before them.
Alex’s eyes burned with excitement.
For a moment, he instinctively wanted to draw his sword.
Then he forced that impulse down and calmed himself.
In the end, he did not draw his sword against Caelum.
Torin felt this scene was far too similar to the day Caelum had suppressed him with a single palm.
That overwhelming shock was something no outsider could truly understand.
Back then, Caelum had used immortal might to suppress him beneath a mountain for ten years.
Now, Caelum had sent Vaelor, who possessed immortal level power, flying ten thousand miles with a single finger.
At that thought...
"Hiss!"
Torin drew in a sharp breath.
A cold chill ran through him.
"Doesn’t that mean the Divine Firmament Heir’s current realm and cultivation are above immortals?"
The idea was absurd.
The fact that Caelum had become an immortal without Ascending was already enough to shake the entire Celestial Arc Realm.
If he also possessed cultivation above immortals while still remaining in the lower world...
That was beyond comprehension.
Alex said, "Once this spreads through the Celestial Arc Realm, and the world learns that the Divine Firmament Heir is still here, and that he repelled an immortal with one strike, the entire realm will be in uproar."
Uproar would be putting it mildly.
The entire Celestial Arc Realm would tremble.
Then Torin suddenly realized something else.
His expression stiffened.
"What did those two call the Heir Apparent just now?"
Alex chuckled.
"Master."
"..."
Too many impossible things had happened at once.
Torin no longer knew how to react.
In the end, not only had he failed to defeat the Divine Firmament Heir back then, he could not even gain the upper hand against the man’s disciple now.
"This makes no damn sense."
All the thoughts in his heart finally turned into a helpless grumble.
He was convinced of the Divine Firmament Heir’s strength.
But what kind of logic allowed even his disciples to be this powerful?
Regardless, the facts were right in front of him.
He had no choice but to accept them.
A streak of divine light flashed.
Vaelor dragged his heavily injured body back before Caelum.
He knew he was no match for him, yet he showed no fear.
"Divine Firmament Heir..."
Realization dawned in Vaelor’s eyes.
His doubts had finally been answered.
His gaze darkened as he said coldly,
"So you’re the one manipulating the Imperial Calamity."
Caelum did not answer the question.
Instead, he revealed Vaelor’s identity.
"Vaelor. A Fallen Immortal from The Infinite Realms. The Reincarnation Immortal Emperor. You have passed through countless lifetimes without being destroyed."
He smiled faintly.
"It seems you and I have a certain fate."
Vaelor frowned.
"What do you mean?"
Caelum explained,
"Our karma begins here. After you reincarnate through ten thousand more lives, we will have another chance to clash. But in this contest over the Imperial Calamity, I am the one who came out ahead."
This man’s ambitions were enormous.
Vaelor felt a chill rise in his heart.
"Do you understand what the Imperial Calamity means for The Infinite Realms..."
Before Vaelor could continue, Caelum waved his hand.
Yin and Yang Qi swept out.
Crack.
The ancient wheel behind Vaelor shattered instantly.
His body and soul were erased in the same moment, wiped from heaven and earth by Caelum.
Vaelor’s background was extraordinary.
Although Caelum had erased him here, after ten thousand more reincarnations, he would return from the cycle of rebirth to settle the karma between them.
However...
The outcome of those ten thousand reincarnations was already destined to be meaningless.
Caelum’s gaze swept lightly across Torin, Lady Moonveil, and the others.
Their breathing stopped.
No pressure descended upon them.
Yet the sensation was more terrifying than the collapse of heaven itself.
Torin in particular was drenched in cold sweat.
Back then, Caelum’s palm had suppressed him beneath a mountain, leaving him to cultivate in isolation for ten years before being released.
The shadow that event left in his heart was not small.
And now...
An immortal had been erased with a flick of a finger.
Honestly, none of them had ever imagined that someone in this world could be this terrifying.
