nThe sky was like ink, dark and without light.

n

n

nThe void gate covered the sky and emanated boundless evil mist that covered heaven and earth.

n

n

n

n

nIn the mist, demons could be seen, their faces ferocious, letting out roars from time to time.

n

n

nThese Evil Spirits were like evil ghosts from hell. Their auras were incomparably fierce as if they wanted to slaughter all life.

n

n

n…

n

n

nEveryone’s expression changed drastically.

n

n

n

n

nThere were too many Evil Spirits this time. There was no lack of Perfected Immortals amongst them.

n

n

nThey swept over like a black tide, shaking the heavens.

n

n

nSuch a lineup exceeded the total number of Evil Spirits that had invaded in the past 100 years.

n

n

nSomeone cried out in horror. “It’s a Thearch who attacked. He tore through the Five Regions Barrier and let the Evil Spirit army in.”

n

n

n

n

nThe Five Regions Barrier restricted Evil Spirit experts from entering.

n

n

nIn the past, even though Evil Spirits at the Perfected Immortal level could enter this world, there were definitely not that many.

n

n

nNow, however, hundreds of them came at once.

n

n

nThere were countless Sub-immortals and Sage Evil Spirits, making one’s scalp tingle.

n

n

nFrom this lineup, it could be seen that they clearly intended to completely destroy the five regions!

n

n

n…

n

n

n

n

nAs soon as these Evil Spirits appeared, they bared their ferocious fangs and charged toward everyone.

n

n

nHundreds of Perfected Immortal Evil Spirits moved together, their might terrifying to the extreme.

n

n

nThey leaped over, overturning the heavens, shattering mountains and rivers.

n

n

nThe heavens sank, and the earth caved in. The natural laws became chaotic as if this place was going to turn into purgatory.

n

n

n“Attack, stop them!”

n

n

nThere was an old man who was roaring furiously with a nervous expression.

n

n

nIf these Evil Immortals were to rush into Middle Ground, there would be corpses everywhere and heavy casualties.

n

n

nThis force was not something the five regions’ cultivators could resist.

n

n

n

n

nDozens of figures soared into the sky and stood in the void, trying to stop the Evil Spirit army.

n

n

nThese were the old ancestors of the various sacred grounds. Their cultivation had reached the Sub-Thearch level.

n

n

nHowever, in front of the Evil Spirit army, this force was still incomparably small.

n

n

nThe difference in numbers was too great to make up for.

n

n

n“Activate the Yin-Yang Five Element Formation!” an elder roared.

n

n

nSeveral dozen Sub-Thearch moved together. They chanted ancient incantations to draw in the power of the world and set up a supreme formation.

n

n

nA resplendent screen of light rose up and enshrouded the surroundings, blocking out heaven and earth.

n

n

nA bright sun and a bright moon rose up, each occupying half of the sky.

n

n

nYin and Yang interweaved, forming a supreme great formation together.

n

n

nSeveral dozen Sub-Thearchs worked together to support the great formation.

n

n

nAt that moment, hundreds of attacks from the Evil Immortals descended.

n

n

nThey mobilized endless evil energy, shattering thousands of miles of territory and smashing into the barrier.

n

n

nThe might was terrifying, and heaven and earth were overturned.

n

n

n

n

nRumble!

n

n

nThe sound was like thunder, shaking heaven and earth!

n

n

nThe barrier of light surged with tempestuous waves.

n

n

nDozens of Sub-Thearchs trembled as they endured the terrifying impact.

n

n

nHowever, the formation did not shatter. Instead, the attack was successfully blocked by the Sub-Thearchs.

n

n

nThis was a formation passed down from the Antiquity Era. It contained tremendous power.

n

n

nWith the support of the formation, it would not be that easy for the Evil Immortals to invade.

n

n

n…

n

n

nAt that moment, a change occurred.

n

n

nThe void gate opened wide, shining brightly.

n

n

nA mighty figure walked over from the outer realm, and its aura looked down upon all living beings.

n

n

nThis person was too terrifying, his entire body pitch-black like ink.

n

n

nEven his pupils were flickering with black light, and not a single ray of light could be seen from him.

n

n

nHe stood tall between heaven and earth as if making heaven and earth sink into an eternal abyss.

n

n

n“My name is Night Thearch!”

n

n

nWith that said, the vast starry sky was instantly shattered into dust.

n

n

nThis voice was filled with soul-stirring power as if it could devour the soul and annihilate the True Soul.

n

n

nWhen everyone heard this, their expressions changed drastically.

n

n

nThis was a true Thearch whose power far surpassed that of a Sub-Thearch.

n

n

nIn the era where there were no Thearchs in the five regions, who could contend against him?

n

n

nWere the five regions really going to perish?

n

n

n…

n

n

nAt that moment, the Night Thearch moved!

n

n

nHe slowly raised his hand and slammed it toward the light screen.

n

n

nIn an instant, space was obliterated and collapsed into ruins, and a myriad of mountains and rivers were shattered.

n

n

nThe formation shield instantly shattered.

n

n

nDozens of Sub-Thearchs bathed in blood, smashing into the ground.

n

n

nTheir faces were ashen, and their minds were shattered.

n

n

nIn front of a true Thearch, everything was like floating clouds.

n

n

nSeveral dozen Sub-Thearchs had joined together to lay down a formation, but it was destroyed in a single strike.

n

n

nSuch power was simply unstoppable!

n

n

nThe Night Thearch’s eyes were dark like an abyssal black hole that could swallow all living beings.

n

n

nHe gazed into the distance, and it was as if his gaze pierced through the boundless void. The gaze headed straight for a certain region in Middle Ground.

n

n

nThe Night Thearch then spoke slowly, his voice carrying a boundless ruler’s might.

n

n

nHis voice echoed throughout heaven and earth. “Evil Spirit army, kill!”

n

n

nFierce winds swept up between heaven and earth, power overflowing into the heavens.

n

n

nImmediately, several hundred Evil Immortals moved, slaughtering their way over.

n

n

nBehind them, countless Sub-Immortal and Sage Evil Spirits pressed down, overturning the heavens!

n

n

n“Fight!” shouted Jiang Taiyi.

n

n

nDozens of ancestors moved together to block the Evil Immortals’ attacks.

n

n

nEach of them utilized their own supreme techniques and borrowed the weapons left behind by their ancestors to resist the Evil Spirits.

n

n

nIf they didn’t take action, this world would definitely be destroyed.

n

n

nEven though the other party had the backing of a Thearch, everyone still charged forward fearlessly.

n

n

nAt the same time, a group of people rushed forward to fight against the Evil Immortals together with the other ancestors.

n

n

nThey carried the flag of the Heavenly Courts and were extremely powerful.

n

n

nThese people were members of the Heavenly Courts.

n

n

nDuring the past 100 years, the geniuses’ strength had increased greatly. They were now capable of contending against Perfected Immortals.

n

n

nThe battle between the two parties was extremely intense.

n

n

nEven though the Evil Spirit race had many experts, it was not so easy for them to flatten the five regions.

n

n

nAt the same time, the five regions’ cultivators were fighting a bloody battle.

n

n

nNo one backed down, all of them fighting with everything they had.

n

n

nThis battle concerned the life and death of the five regions, and no one was safe alone.

n

n

n…

n

n

nThe Night Thearch’s gaze was disdainful as he said disdainfully, “What a stubborn resistance!”

n

n

nHe mobilized his strength and prepared to deal with these humans.

n

n

nAt that moment, a figure floated over.

n

n

nHis white clothes were extraordinary, and his style was matchless. He stood in front of the Night Thearch, resisting all the pressure coming from him.

n

n

nThe Night Thearch’s expression was cold as he snorted. “So it’s you!”

n

n

nUpon recognizing Shen Tian, his aura instantly became incomparably violent.

n

n

nShen Tian teased. “A defeated opponent still dares to be so arrogant?”

n

n

nNight Thearch!

n

n

nThis was the Thearch that the Evil Spirits had summoned back in Southern Border.

n

n

nShen Tian had destroyed his finger back then and injured him.

n

n

nHe never expected that 100 years later, he would actually directly slaughter his way into this realm.

n

n

nThe Night Thearch’s eyes narrowed dangerously. He stepped forward and shattered the endless void.

n

n

n“Brat, how dare you injure my body!? Die!”

n

n

nThe Night Thearch waved his hand.

n

n

nThe heavens were overturned in the blink of an eye, and the pressure bore down on Shen Tian.

n

n

nThis was the force of a Thearch.

n

n

nIn an instant, the void was torn apart.

n

n

nDarkness spread for thousands of miles, terrifying to the extreme.

n

n

nAn enormous handprint that shook the heavens suddenly appeared in the sky, and it blotted out the sky and covered the sun. It was extremely heavy.

n

n

nThis power was enough to kill any living being below the Thearch level.

n

n

nShen Tian’s expression didn’t change, and his eyes shone with a dazzling light.

n

n

nEndless starlight surrounded him, dazzling and resplendent.

n

n

nHe leaped into the sky, bringing with him endless starlight.

n

n

n“Heavenly Divine Fist!”

n

n

nShen Tian waved his fist and drew in the power of the endless stars.

n

n

nLike a falling meteor, it was unstoppable!

n

n

nBoom!

n

n

nThe two collided, and their might shook heaven and earth as they shattered space.

n

n

nThe Night Thearch’s body trembled slightly as surprise appeared in his eyes.

n

n

nShen Tian’s strength actually increased to such an extent after 100 years.

n

n

nBack then, Shen Tian had to use all his trump cards just to defend against his finger.

n

n

nBut now, he could actually forcefully shake a Thearch’s attack?

n

n

nSuch talent was simply too monstrous.

n

n

n“This kid is a hidden danger. I can’t let him live!”

n

n

nA pitch-black evil force surged from the Night Thearch’s body, forming a scorching sun of darkness.

n

n

nDark light flickered about, carrying a mournful and evil intent as if it was going to drag people into a dark abyss.

n

n

nBrilliant light erupted behind Shen Tian as a massive Kun Peng projection materialized.

n

n

nHe was displaying the Kun Peng arts, turning into an aurora that rushed into the dark blazing sun.

n

n

n“Looking for death!”

n

n

nThe Night Thearch snorted and clenched his fist.

n

n

nThe dark sun instantly exploded as pitch-black evil flames swept through the heavens, incinerating all laws.

n

n

nSpace instantly collapsed, and the laws were obliterated while order was thrown into disorder. It was like a place where all spirits perished.

n

n

nThe dazzling aurora suddenly broke through the black mist and charged toward the Night Thearch.

n

n

nThe blood in Shen Tian’s body surged endlessly, shaking the heavens like a furnace!

n

n

nA Dragon-Phoenix avatar appeared behind him as the two intertwined!

n

n

nShen Tian’s hands clenched into fists, one hand transforming into a True Dragon that roared through the world.

n

n

nThe True Dragon Fist descended with unstoppable force.

n

n

nThe other hand turned into a Divine Phoenix, fiery light surging into the heavens, carrying with it blazing divine flames, burning heaven and earth.

n

n

nThe two punches landed heavily on the Night Thearch’s chest.

n

n

nIt blasted him into the nine heavens, scattering the clouds in all directions.

n

n

n“Cough, cough.”

n

n

nThe blood in the Night Thearch’s body surged as his eyes were filled with shock.

n

n

nHe hadn’t expected Shen Tian’s battle prowess to be so terrifying.

n

n

nIn a moment of carelessness, he almost suffered a huge loss.

n

n

nThe Night Thearch roared ferociously, “Kill!”

n

n

nThe evil mist behind him shook and transformed into a monstrous beast. Its bloody mouth was wide open and incomparably sinister.

n

n

nThe power was terrifying to the extreme. If one was dragged into the dark mist, they would sink into eternal oblivion.

n

n

nIt was as if countless living beings were howling in anguish and resentment in the bloody mouth.

n

n

nThese were all living beings that the Night Thearch had devoured.

n

n

nThere was no lack of peerless experts amongst them, yet they remained silent here forever, and it caused others to feel terrified.

n

n

n“Suppress!”

n

n

nShen Tian roared as the light around his body grew increasingly intense.

n

n

nThe Dragon-Phoenix power was pushed to its limits, and divine flames erupted forth.

n

n

nNan Ming Li Fire, True Sun Fire, Divine Phoenix Undying Flames, Phoenix Divine Flames…

n

n

nEndless flames soared into the sky, transforming into a curtain of fire that descended to the nine heavens, dazzling and resplendent.

n

n

nThe myriads of divine flames were extremely dazzling. They lit up the world, dispelling the darkness.

n

n

nBoth sides fought a bloody and intense battle.

n

n

nBlack mist surged, and flames soared into the sky!

n

n

nThe Dragon-Phoenix avatar collided intensely with the giant darkness beast. Its roar shook the heavens, shattering the starry skies for 10,000 miles.

n

n

nShen Tian’s true body was also fighting against the Night Thearch. This was an extreme clash of physical bodies, a clash using the most primitive power.

n

n

nIn that instant, divine might erupted, the scene horrifying.

n

n

nThis was a battle between unmatched experts that could easily shatter heaven and earth and destroy the sun, moon, and stars.

n

n

nHowever, this battle was one-sided!

n

n

nShen Tian’s heroic bearing was unparalleled. He controlled the Dragon-Phoenix power and sent it straight down to the ninth heaven, causing the Night Thearch to retreat repeatedly.

n

n

nAlthough the Night Thearch possessed the body of a Thearch, he was at a disadvantage when facing Shen Tian, who had a supreme physique.

n

n

nEver since Shen Tian had passed the 24 levels of tribulation and had become a Sub-Thearch, his mortal body had undergone earthshaking changes.

n

n

nEven the body of a Thearch would pale in comparison before him.

n

n

nBoom!

n

n

nAnother loud explosion could be heard!

n

n

nThe Night Thearch was instantly blasted hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, shattering the endless void.

n

n

nBlood flowed from the corners of his lips, his aura heavy.

n

n

n“Damn it! If I don’t kill you, I will shame the Thearchs’ prestige!”

n

n

nThe Night Thearch gnashed his teeth, feeling deeply humiliated.

n

n

nTo think that he, a great Thearch, actually suffered such a great loss in front of a junior. How could he endure this?

n

n

nThe Night Thearch rose to his feet as the Eternal Night Calamity Light surged behind him.

n

n

nIt transformed into a pair of black wings and soared into the sky.

n

n

nHis true body turned into a dark vulture, his entire body covered in bones and flesh, carrying unmatched sharpness as he pressed over.

n

n

nIts beak was like a sharp blade, able to easily pierce through Immortal Metals.

n

n

nShen Tian’s hand glowed with silver light. He unsheathed the Chaotic Star Sword and slashed out the Flying Sword Immortal Qi.

n

n

nIn an instant, heaven and earth were covered in dazzling silver light.

n

n

nBoom!

n

n

nThe Night Thearch’s figure immediately fell back, and blood flowed from the space between his brows. His divine sense had almost been obliterated.

n

n

nAt that moment, he finally understood—Shen Tian wasn’t someone he could kill alone.

n

n

nThe Night Thearch forcefully stabilized his injuries. Although he was injured, it was not a threat to his life.

n

n

nHe said coldly, “Aren’t you guys coming out?”

n

n

nThe Night Thearch looked into the distance as if he was summoning something.

n

n

n“What’s wrong? You’re a great Thearch, yet you can’t even take care of a junior?”

n

n

nA mocking voice sounded from the void gate.

n

n

nThe void gate trembled intensely as a matchless figure walked out of it.

n

n

nThis person wore a blood-colored crown and blood-colored armor. His aura was incomparably fierce.

n

n

nHe slowly walked over as if carrying with him a torrential sea of blood.

n

n

nThis person had definitely slaughtered countless living beings, and his entire body was tainted with blood aura, causing him to look and feel extremely horrifying.

n

n

nAnother Thearch!

n

n

nThe Night Thearch harrumphed upon seeing who it was. “Blood Thearch, this brat isn’t as simple as he looks!

n

n

n“Don’t be careless, or you’ll suffer a loss!”

n

n

nBlood energy overflowed into the heavens from the Blood Thearch’s body. He stood in the boundless sea of stars, looking down on all life.

n

n

nHis eyes were as red as blood, like a blood sun.

n

n

nWith just a slight glance, one’s soul would be annihilated by the endless bloodlust, and one would be reduced to madness.

n

n

n“This bloodline really is extraordinary, and their fighting strength is indeed heaven-shocking.

n

n

n“Unfortunately, it is destined to be destroyed here today.”

n

n

nThe Blood Thearch’s voice was powerful as he coldly looked down at Shen Tian as if he was looking at a dead person.

n

n

nIn his view, even though Shen Tian was powerful, there was nothing to fear.

n

n

nIt would be an easy task to kill him.

n

n

n…

n

n

nShen Tian wore a calm expression upon seeing another Thearch. He was not surprised that the Evil Spirit race had a backup plan.

n

n

nShen Tian aloofly said, “There’s one more person. Don’t hide. Come out!”

n

n

nA deep voice then sounded, shaking the universe.

n

n

n“Interesting, you actually managed to find traces of myself!”

n

n

nAnother peerless being walked out of the void gate.

n

n

nThis person held an Evil Spirit staff and wore a cursed robe. His eyes were dark green and sinister.

n

n

nThe evil aura around him was vast and mighty, emitting a terrifying curse power.

n

n

nThis person’s voice was hoarse like the roar of a malicious spirit. “I didn’t expect that the Human Emperor bloodline could actually break our clan’s curse.”

n

n

nThe Blood Thearch was astonished.

n

n

n“Eye Thearch, this brat broke the curse?”

n

n

nThis surprised everyone.

n

n

nThe Eye Thearch came from an extremely extraordinary Evil Spirit lineage. His original form was the Heaven-Smiting Devil Pupil, and it possessed the power of supreme curse.

n

n

nIn the past, the Heaven-Smiting Devil Pupil Clan hadn’t hesitated to sacrifice three great Immortal Kings to place a curse onto the Human Emperor Physique.

n

n

nThis curse could not be removed unless the one with the Human Emperor Physique reached the Immortal Emperor realm.

n

n

nWho would have thought that Shen Tian would be able to remove the curse even before breaking through to become a Thearch?

n

n

nIt seemed like this boy had a big secret!

n

n

nThe Eye Thearch’s voice was cold like a curse. “It’s fine. This bloodline is destined to be abandoned by the heavens. This kid will also die here!”

n

n

nHe did not mind. This generation’s Human Emperor’s cultivation was too weak and had yet to mature.

n

n

nFurthermore, with three Thearchs present, how could they not be able to kill the Human Emperor?

n

n

n…

n

n

nEveryone sucked in a deep breath of cold air.

n

n

nNo one expected the Evil Spirit race to send three great Thearchs to attack Shen Tian.

n

n

nThis lineup had already surpassed everyone’s imagination.

n

n

nThe gazes of Jiang Taiyi and the others were heavy as they said worriedly, “Brother Shen, you must win!”

n

n

nShen Tian’s eyes were cold, and his voice was as cold as ice. “Very good, everyone is here! It’s time to send you all on your way!”

n

n

nThe Blood Thearch snorted. “Arrogant! This is where you will die. It’s your honor to be killed by three Thearchs. It’s something worth bragging about even when your soul returns to the Yellow Springs!”

n

n

nThearchs had always been supreme existences.

n

n

nA single Thearch was enough to destroy the five regions.

n

n

nNow, the Evil Spirit race had mobilized three Thearchs just to deal with Shen Tian, who had yet to even become a Thearch.

n

n

nThis was simply unimaginable.

n

n

nShen Tian teased. “Is that so? Let’s see if you all have the ability!”

n

n

nWith that said, Shen Tian flicked his sleeves, and endless divine light erupted from his body.

n

n

nDivine light shone in all directions, cleansing heaven and earth.

n

n

nAbove his head, the Divine Sun Cauldron sat in the void, extremely dazzling.

n

n

nBehind him, the Spherical Heaven Chessboard shone with boundless divine might.

n

n

nShen Tian stood firmly in the air against the three Thearchs.

n

n

n“You actually have such treasures?”

n

n

nThe three Thearchs’ eyes lit up when they saw the treasures.

n

n

nThey could sense the terrifying might emanating from the chessboard.

n

n

nSuch a treasure would tempt even Thearchs.

n

n

n“Kill!”

n

n

nThe Night Thearch was the first to speak. He had suffered a great defeat at Shen Tian’s hands earlier and wanted to avenge his previous humiliation.

n

n

nHis large hands clenched into fists, looking grand and unrestrained. He shattered the starry sky and caused countless stars to explode.

n

n

nAlthough the Night Thearch was injured, his strength was not greatly affected.

n

n

nShen Tian controlled the Divine Sun Cauldron and directly suppressed the Night Thearch.

n

n

nThe two sides collided, releasing endless divine might that engulfed heaven and earth.

n

n

nThe Divine Sun Cauldron burst forth with endless divine light, bathed in True Sun Fire.

n

n

nWhen the Night Thearch touched the True Sun Fire, he retreated in fear.

n

n

nSuch divine flame was extremely effective against the Evil Spirit race.

n

n

nShen Tian rode his divine rainbow, planning to seize the moment of victory to give chase.

n

n

nBeside him, the Blood Thearch had also charged over. His murderous intent was even more terrifying than that of the Night Thearch.

n

n

nThe Blood Thearch held a scarlet war spear in his hands, dark red blood still dripping from it.

n

n

nThat was the true blood of a Thearch expert, who had been pierced through by the spear.

n

n

nHis true blood was swallowed into the spear, causing the spear to become increasingly vicious.

n

n

nSuch a peerless weapon was considered a top existence even amongst Thearch artifacts.

n

n

nThe Blood Thearch held the scarlet spear in his hand, stabbing toward Shen Tian’s back.

n

n

nShen Tian turned around and controlled the chessboard to forcefully attack the Blood Thearch.

n

n

nIn the blink of an eye, the Spherical Heaven Chessboard expanded.

n

n

nIt completely transformed, completely imprisoning the scarlet war spear.

n

n

nThe stars descended, and natural laws swirled about it, releasing endless power.

n

n

nThe Blood Thearch’s body shook violently as he was knocked back by the power of the Spherical Heaven Chessboard.

n

n

nHowever, he didn’t seem to mind. His eyes were flickering with blazing blood light.

n

n

nThe Blood Thearch already had his eyes on this unmatched great artifact, wishing to seize it for himself.

n

n

nAt the other side, the Eye Thearch also attacked.

n

n

nHe waved his staff, and a strange power erupted from his body.

n

n

nIn the darkness, an evil force approached, disrupting the universe.

n

n

nShen Tian’s body shook violently. He felt that someone was restraining his divine soul in the void, wanting to tear it apart!

n

n

n“Die!”

n

n

nShen Tian let out a long roar as golden light erupted from his body.

n

n

nThe Golden Wheel of Purification suddenly appeared, allowing him to be impenetrable by all techniques.

n

n

nAt that moment, the Eye Thearch charged toward him.

n

n

nNot only was he proficient in curses, but he was also extremely powerful himself.

n

n

nThe Eye Thearch transformed into a gigantic demonic eye and shot out the Heaven-Smiting Devil Pupil’s light, erupting with destructive power.

n

n

nBoom!

n

n

nThe stars within a radius of 10,000 kilometers instantly shattered into dust.

n

n

nShen Tian’s expression was grave as he quickly formed hand seals.

n

n

nIn the blink of an eye, countless chess pieces fell from the sky, condensing into a giant astral sword made of stars that descended from the sky.

n

n

nThe chess pieces collided with the Eye Thearch and sent him flying.

n

n

n…

n

n

nThis scene shocked everyone.

n

n

nThey found it hard to believe that Shen Tian wasn’t at a disadvantage even though he was fighting against three Thearchs.

n

n

nAs expected of the five regions’ Human Emperor. He will definitely win this battle!

n
