Chapter 1 An Qi Sheng's Actions

An Qisheng had always acted with the heart of treading on thin ice, while simultaneously pursuing valiant and vigorous progress. In times of unknown variables, he could lie dormant, diligently honing his supernatural powers.

Now that his worries were gone, he would act without the slightest reservation.

This palm strike was still rooted in the five colors, but it contained a summation of all his supernatural powers since he began cultivating the Dao. Moreover, it was the ultimate strike after combining his supernatural powers.

South Heaven Gate, Fengdu City,斩仙台 (Zhanxian Platform), 打神鞭 (Da Shen Bian), Bagua Furnace...

In a trance, it was as if a divine court was pressing down.

Within it, hundreds of billions of gods and demons stamped their feet and roared, pushing various supernatural torrents to empower it. Intertwined, it resembled a grand formation jointly propelled by millions of gods and demons!

It displayed a terrifying power that could move anyone in the world.

"Roar!"

Various visions flowed and transformed between his fingers and palms, completely occupying all spatiotemporal variables in this Star Sea Grand Formation. Even White Emperor's expression shifted, and he roared towards the sky.

His shock contained disbelief.

(Sending you a cash bonus!)

He had fought with this Hong Xuan Daoist in the grand formation for many days, and he believed he knew his strengths and weaknesses.

In his previous opinion, this Hong Xuan Daoist was indeed stronger than himself at this moment, but there was still a long way to go before he could match his peak self.

But now, watching the giant palm press down, no matter how unbelievable it was in his heart, he had to admit that this palm strike had infinitely approached his peak self.

For the current him, it was an irresistible force!

He had to meet it head-on, and he could only withstand it!

Rumble!

Like stars falling together, it stirred up hundreds of millions of void tides, and boundless supernatural powers rolled down, instantly submerging everything.

Crack!

In just a moment, this Star Sea Grand Formation had already shattered.

The terrifying collision of supernatural powers leaked through the cracks in the grand formation and spread layer by layer in the space-time interlayer. Wherever it passed, everything, both tangible and intangible, was crushed.

The aftermath continued, and a wisp even flowed out of the void interlayer, soaring into the sky, instantly tearing apart hundreds of thousands of miles of clouds.

The many cultivators who stopped at the foot of Shouyang Mountain retreated one after another, and when they looked up again, they couldn't help but be horrified.

They saw that above the sky, the sea of clouds was distinctly divided into two sides, and a huge ravine, hundreds or even thousands of miles wide, started from Shouyang Mountain.

It stretched straight to the end that the naked eye couldn't see.

"That's... White Emperor's aura..."

Zhu Long watched from afar, his expression surprised and suspicious, and a premonition rose in his heart.

His acquaintance with White Emperor was extremely shallow, but he had seen White Emperor take action, so he was naturally no stranger to his supernatural powers.

But no matter how he sensed, he couldn't detect where that aura was flowing out from.

"The former hasn't been caught up with yet, and the latter has already surpassed... Ah, my life."

In the Star Sea Grand Formation that was collapsing and shattering inch by inch, White Emperor staggered and sat down, his disheveled hair covering his face, and he smiled 'hey', his expression returning to silence:

"The gods patrol the sky, and I shepherd the gods. What good supernatural powers, what good spirit. No wonder you are the hero who single-handedly created the unified imperial dynasty of the human race..."

"What is the name of your supernatural power?"

White Emperor lowered his eyes. His magnificent divine body was covered with cracks.

It was like the most exquisite porcelain in the world being forcibly pieced together after being shattered. There seemed to be no flesh and blood in it, making it look shocking.

One strike was better than ten million encounters. That palm strike encompassed everything, broke all his supernatural powers, and collapsed the origin of his body.

"This god is not that god. The two are similar but not the same, and cannot be mentioned in the same breath."

In the tidal ripples, An Qisheng slowly landed in front of White Emperor. The streamer between his fingers and palms floated up with his voice:

"Perhaps it can be called 'Feng Shen Bang' (Investiture of the Gods)."

From his initial understanding in the Human Realm to the present, An Qisheng had cultivated too many supernatural powers and Dao techniques. Now, this king of supernatural powers had finally begun to take shape.

"Feng Shen Bang."

White Emperor chewed over and over in his mouth, his expression uncertain, and said with a complicated tone:

"Your supernatural power has surpassed the Five-Colored Divine Light and Sleeves of the Universe from back then, right? Perhaps, it is no weaker than that Buddha's Seven Treasures Mystical Technique..."

Gods and demons were born from heaven, and they were born with immortality. The power that mortals could not match was only instinct for them.

All the powers sought by later generations were called supernatural powers, and the essence was the awe and yearning of acquired beings for gods and demons.

But now, he had been defeated, defeated by a junior whose life was as short as a mayfly and whose cultivation was far less than one ten-thousandth of his own.

No matter how unconvinced he was, he couldn't change this fact.

"Perhaps."

An Qisheng stood in the void, overlooking the grand formation that was collapsing inch by inch. He vaguely seemed to see Mount Sumeru, which he didn't know where it was, beyond the endless void.

He vaguely seemed to be able to detect a faint gaze, as if it was also overlooking the void, looking at each other from afar.

"Heaven gives birth to all things, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. Although your lives are as short as mayflies, you also have the possibility of transcending and becoming saints...

Unfortunately, They have already surpassed gods and demons and become another kind of indescribable and unknowable existence. You will eventually experience our despair."

In the gentle breeze, White Emperor's body fell like sand, and as the ripples swept past, the divine body had dissipated into the void:

"Between life and death, I, will wait for you!"

As the voice floated, White Emperor finally brushed aside the disheveled hair on his forehead and vanished with the grand formation that had trapped him for many days.

An Qisheng didn't say a word, but stood in place for a long time before smiling thoughtfully, turning and leaving this dimension interlayer.

...

Huff!

After a long time, a golden light shot out from the void and circled around here for a while, finally landing where White Emperor had fallen.

The golden light dissipated.

A middle-aged man wearing a golden robe and a crown stepped out, a look of shock flashing in his eyes.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~

Not long after the middle-aged man in the golden robe appeared, several more streams of light roared in from all directions. Only when they saw the middle-aged man from afar did they fall and transform into human forms.

"He, died so easily?"

Under a fiery red robe, a handsome young man was surprised and fearful: "That Hong Xuan Daoist, actually has such strength? To let White Emperor die so silently?"

"Perhaps it's a trick?!"

An old man in a black robe pinched the dust in the void, his eyes shaking, unable to understand:

"White Emperor attained the Dao before us. Even if his undefeated state of mind was broken by the Divine Emperor and his cultivation no longer improved, he is still stronger than the four of us. How could he..."

White Emperor was the first ancient emperor.

Before Emperor Yan became a saint, he received the decree of the Heavenly Saint and ruled over the gods. He was the well-deserved Divine Emperor.

Even though he had been in decline for many epochs, his cultivation still steadily suppressed the four of them. Even if he had not returned from his tribulation for a long time, how could he die so easily?

The reason why the four of them feigned death for many years and did not appear in front of people, and even watched him subdue the gods without moving, was because of their fear.

But now it seemed that their many plans, with the silent fall of White Emperor, were like a joke.

"That Hong Xuan Daoist is suspected to be the reincarnation of 'Bodhi' from back then, but that Bodhi doesn't have such a strong evil spirit, murderous aura..."

A woman in a green shirt stood at one end of the void, moving her fingers, and after a long time, she still shook her head, her tone wavering: "Perhaps, it's really a trick?"

"White Emperor has always been arrogant and conceited. Even if his cultivation has not recovered, he dares to travel in his true form. It is not necessarily a trick that he was killed!"

The middle-aged man in the golden robe spoke, his voice clangoring like the sound of metal: "There is only one seat for the Divine Emperor, and there is only one Saint position! It's good that he's dead!"

In the void, the four people were arranged at the four corners, facing each other from afar, their auras in harmony but also wary of each other.

"Whether the Saint position mentioned by the Divine Emperor is true or false, I suggest that the three elder brothers not fight for it."

Azure Emperor glanced at the three people who were wary of each other, even full of hostility, and shook her head and took a step back:

"As for the struggle for the Divine Emperor, I, won't fight for it either."

"Huh?"

Xuan Emperor swept over with cold eyes, and seeing Azure Emperor waving his hand and backing away, he sneered: "Do you think we still have a way out at this time?"

Azure Emperor frowned.

"The position of the Divine Emperor is high, and the position of the Saint is noble. For countless epochs since ancient times, have those few ever let go even half a step?"

Xuan Emperor's old face was full of indifference: "How can White Emperor's death be without a reason? Although that person is arrogant, he is not stupid. There must have been a great temptation, so he would risk coming out before his cultivation recovered."

At this point, there was no need to say more.

The few people looked at each other, and their hearts sank.

"The path to Dao is difficult, what to do."

Red Emperor sighed slightly: "Dao Sect, Mount Sumeru, the South Sea Dragon Gate, the Netherworld Fengdu, that one in the Demon Realm, and this Hong Xuan Daoist...

To win the first place, it may not be enough to rely on you and me alone..."

Red Emperor sighed, showing weakness.

The other three emperors looked indifferent, but none of them refuted.

Among the various realms, the four of them had the shallowest attainment among the many near-Saints under the Saint, and even, if the Divine Emperor had not enlightened them with great supernatural powers, the four of them might not have been able to step into their current realm.

Because of this, the four of them joined forces to barely suppress White Emperor. Because of this, Xuan Emperor pointed out the difficulty, and the expressions of the few people were not good.

The seemingly weakest Hong Xuan Daoist had silently suppressed White Emperor, who had been fighting with them openly and secretly for countless years.

If possible, the four of them would like to avoid his edge for the time being, but...

"Advancing may not be impossible, but retreating will surely lead to death!"

After a brief silence, Gold Emperor spoke, his tone extremely cold:

"The Imperial Heaven Court is the center of the various realms. White Emperor had this disaster because he left without authorization. If we hold the Imperial Court in our hands and set up the 'Five Emperors Dao Evolution Grand Formation' again, we may not be able to compete with those few!"

Among hundreds of millions of supernatural powers, the Seven Treasures Mystical Tree is the crown, and among thousands of formations, the 'Five Emperors Dao Evolution Grand Formation' is the most respected!

Tens of thousands of years ago, they used the Imperial Court as the root and this formation as the foundation, and persisted under the monstrous anger of the Phoenix Emperor until the Divine Emperor's incarnation came down to the realm!

And this was when White Emperor had different intentions from them.

This formation is invincible below the Saint!

"The Dao Evolution Grand Formation is indeed powerful, but to be without flaws, it requires five near-Saints. The four of us hold the four corners, but someone must sit in the center..."

Azure Emperor frowned even more, but her heart moved.

The Five Emperors Dao Evolution Grand Formation was created by the Divine Emperor to suppress the universe. However, the more powerful the formation, the more complex it is.

The Five Emperors Dao Evolution Grand Formation not only requires the blessing of various gods, but also requires someone to sit in the center of the Imperial Court. If one is missing, there will be flaws.

Gold Emperor picked up a wisp of aura from the void and looked into the distance with a deep gaze: "That one is enough to replace White Emperor."

"Huh?"

Xuan Emperor's expression changed slightly: "You want to?"

"Amnesty!"
