Chapter 592: Calling Out to the World

Chapter 596: Defying the World

The heavenly tribulation was fierce, with thousands of lightning bolts descending, finally catching up to Xiao Yunsheng and enveloping him in a blinding white light.

The terrifying electrical currents submerged the void, causing mountains to collapse and the earth to sink, turning it into scorched land devoid of life.

Whiz! At the same time, Ye Fan, holding the Myriad Lizard Bow, released an arrow. The golden streak carried infinite lightning forward, making the lightning tribulation even more ferocious.

Boom! Finally, Xiao Yunsheng triggered his own heavenly tribulation. Overwhelming electric light poured down, like a galaxy falling from the sky, carrying an aura of world destruction.

Everyone knew Xiao Yunsheng was doomed. Such a catastrophe descending from the heavens meant certain death. It was the great tribulation of earth, fire, wind, and water, as if the world was being created, with chaotic light flickering.

"No, this calamity is far too great!"

This was a super-massive heavenly tribulation, not a fleeting phenomenon, but a full-scale descent. Earth, fire, wind, and water rotated, and the central world was a chaotic void, evolving the power of creation, making it irresistible.

"There must have been too many heavenly tribulations today. The heavens have truly grown furious, and the calamities they send down will be more violent each time!"

Everyone was certain that Xiao Yunsheng was finished. There was almost no chance of survival. Even a peerless demon lord would not be able to withstand it; it was many times greater than a typical Saint Lord's heavenly tribulation.

Ye Fan also felt a chill in his heart; this great tribulation made him uneasy. A single bolt of lightning turned a large section of mountains into dust and scorched the earth.

He had seen minor tribulations of earth, fire, wind, and water before, but they were nothing compared to this great tribulation. What he saw now was the four elements surging, chaos flowing, and a small world being forged.

Boom! The sea of lightning boiled, millions of electric currents flashed, blinding everything. Nothing could be seen.

Xiao Yunsheng roared. When the first wave of lightning tribulation struck, all his magical artifacts were shattered, not a single one remaining. When the second heavenly punishment descended, his entire body was scorched black, bones exposed. When the third heavenly tribulation struck, half of his body disintegrated, his bones turned black, and his blood dried up.

After eight waves of heavenly tribulation, the great expert was utterly annihilated, not even a speck of bone remained. He was pulverized by the great tribulation of earth, fire, wind, and water, erased from existence.

"This is bad!" Ye Fan flew away rapidly. His heavenly tribulation was nearing its end, and if he didn't leave soon, it would be too late. However, this small world was complex, and for a moment, he couldn't find the exit.

At the same time, an immense pressure fluctuated. The ultimate imperial weapons were awakening, sealing off space and slowly suppressing him.

Ye Fan's expression changed. The heavenly tribulation was about to vanish, and the two ancient divine dynasties of Central Province, no longer restrained, began to act, blocking his escape.

"Leave the Great Emperor Scripture!" The Great Xia Emperor's expression was cold. He would never allow anyone to take the legacy left by their ancestor. Otherwise, the ancient scripture would no longer be a secret, and someone could use it to establish a second Great Xia Divine Dynasty.

As the last lightning bolt vanished and the heavenly tribulation completely receded, Ye Fan's expression changed. The exit was before him, but a colossal dragon lay across the void, coiling in nothingness, each ray of light it emitted brighter than the sun.

This was the ultimate imperial weapon, the Great Emperor Sword. It raised its head and roared, causing all heavens to stir and ages to tremble. It seemed like a single strike could pierce through and destroy past, present, and future, with unparalleled offensive power!

Everyone trembled. The ultimate imperial weapons were slowly awakening, and the aura of ancient great emperors permeated the air. Even a group of peak experts could barely resist kneeling.

Ye Fan knew it would be impossible to take the Great Emperor Scripture. It was the lifeblood of the Great Xia Divine Dynasty, the source of their heritage. No matter the cost, they would never allow it to fall into outsiders' hands.

Not far away, another terrifying aura surged, instantly causing the entire world to tremble.

The Nine Li Map, this ultimate imperial weapon, could seal ages, suppress three thousand great worlds, and refine all things. Its defensive power was unmatched throughout history.

Within it, mountains and rivers were splendid, and seas were boundless, magnificent beyond compare. The aura of the ancient great emperor was incredibly oppressive. Legend had it that it once absorbed two saint spirits capable of contending with great emperors, refining them into dust.

Ye Fan's mouth twisted, his scalp tingled, and fear welled in his heart. How could he escape now? With the heavenly tribulation gone, a wisp of immortal power from an ultimate imperial weapon could turn him into dust.

Even with his "Movement" secret art, it was useless. Within such a range, he simply couldn't escape or evade. Ultimate imperial weapons could suppress even entire worlds, let alone him.

"Ye Fan, Ye Zhetian, let's see where you can run!" Grand Tutor Xiao's expression was terrifyingly cold.

Beside him, the Yin-Yang Sect Master also stared at Ye Fan as if he were already dead, a cruel, cold smile on his lips as he approached step by step.

Boom! On the other side, the ancient Heaven-Devouring Demonic Pot revived. Endless imperial might flowed, and the ruthless figure who had shaken past and present seemed reborn, an inexplicable aura permeating the air.

"The ancient Heavenly Emperor's weapon has revived!"

Everyone felt a surge of tension. The Heaven-Devouring Pot was the most mysterious; it had been split into two halves for a long time, and almost no one knew its true power.

Thud! In the distant mountains, some Grand Elder-level figures observing from outside the region couldn't help but kneel, unable to withstand the pressure of the three imperial weapons.

This was not shameful, as even many great experts were almost unable to bear it, their bodies constantly trembling, their legs shaking uncontrollably.

Ye Fan rushed under the ancient Heaven-Devouring Demonic Pot. For him, this was the only safe haven. Everyone outside was eyeing him covetously, their gazes fixed on the Great Emperor Scripture.

"Brother Ye, so you're that monstrous talent from the Eastern Wasteland. No wonder you struck Yan Yunluan so foolishly," the barbarian muttered, coming closer.

"Where's that big black dog of yours?" Duan De's expression was somewhat hostile. The Black Emperor had almost bitten off his arm previously, demanding to make him a pet.

Jue Youqing, dressed in snow-white robes, with hair like clouds, had a serene expression, like a Bodhisattva. Holding a green Bodhi branch, he merely nodded without saying much. The old blind man spoke, "Hand over the Dao imprint left by the Great Emperor, otherwise the Great Xia Divine Dynasty will fight desperately, even resorting to a confrontation with their ultimate imperial weapon."

"How unwilling I am. I finally obtained a complete and intact ancient scripture..." Ye Fan sighed.

However, he knew he couldn't keep it. This was the source of Great Xia's heritage. Even if they had to exhaust all their resources, the dynasty would never tolerate it being leaked to outsiders!

Moreover, there was also the Nine Li Map nearby, and people from that divine dynasty were also watching covetously. With the imperial weapons revived, if a battle truly broke out, this entire world would be destroyed.

The Heaven-Devouring Demonic Pot was indeed powerful, but facing two imperial weapons simultaneously would be extremely difficult. Just relying on the old blind man and a few others to activate it would be far from enough.

One must know that both sides had many people who could continuously keep the two imperial weapons in an awakened state, and could even truly revive them!

Ye Fan pulled out several stone nails, then dismantled the bottom board of the coffin. With a flick of his hand, he tossed something out, instantly drawing everyone's attention.

Zzheng! The Great Emperor Sword was unleashed, the heavens roared, and a dragon's roar resonated through ages, instantly shaking space and time.

Hualala! On the other side, the Nine Li Map trembled, sealing the sky. It unfurled downwards and also curled down, aiming directly for the Great Emperor Scripture.

Although others were envious, no one dared to step forward. With two imperial weapons active, anyone who approached would be seeking death. Under that immense pressure, many peak figures were worse than ants.

"Imperial Brother of Nine Li, must you be so pushy?" A voice transmission came from the Great Xia Divine Dynasty. The Great Emperor Sword and the Nine Li Map did not collide, instead facing each other across the air.

At this moment, people were extremely tense. If the two imperial weapons were to fully revive and clash, this world would collapse and cease to exist.

The old blind man was sweating cold, activating the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Pot with all his might to protect himself. Otherwise, once the small world collapsed, all other experts would die, except for those protected by ultimate imperial weapons.

"The Great Emperor Scripture is a secret of our clan and cannot be leaked. If Imperial Brother of Nine Li is willing to let go, we can consider working together to deal with the Divine Remembrance and obtain the Five-Colored Divine Ice, which contains the Undying Emperor's human skin..."

"What about us...?" Fatty Duan spoke up, reminding everyone not to forget that they also had an imperial weapon and deserved a share of any benefits.

A moment of silence fell over the scene, as everyone harbored different thoughts.

At this moment, Ye Fan's heart stirred. The exit of the small world had opened, and the Great Emperor Sword had moved away, now confronting the Nine Li Map. He felt he could leave.

Ye Fan returned the golden Saint arm bone to the barbarian, then threw a large piece of undying divine wood to the others. He flew away, making his escape.

The situation was too chaotic now, and many people were likely eyeing him. After all, he possessed the Cauldron of Myriad Mother Qi, and perhaps that Fatty Duan was also scheming. He decided that leaving was the best strategy.

"Chase him, don't let him get away!"

Wang Yangzhan was the first to pursue. He knew that with three ultimate imperial weapons present, it would be difficult for him to gain anything significant. It was far more worthwhile to kill Ye Fan and seize his sacred artifacts.

"Prepare to die!" The Xiao family members also roared. A great expert had just died, all thanks to Ye Fan, so they naturally wouldn't let him off.

However, after they gave chase, Ye Fan had long since vanished without a trace. He had obtained the Dragon Transformation Scripture he desired, and there was nothing else he cared about. Relying on his "Movement" secret art, he fled far away.

In the following days, the Five Domains were shaken. Terms like Divine Remembrance, Immortal Tree Coffin, Great Emperor Scripture, Five-Colored Divine Ice, human skin, and Undying Emperor became the focus of public discussion.

After Ye Fan left, he didn't know what happened later. Various versions of events circulated, and no one could say for sure.

Rumors abounded: a confrontation between three ultimate imperial weapons, the destruction of Divine Remembrance, the emergence of the Undying Emperor's human skin... It was difficult to discern truth from falsehood.

Some even said that the ancient kings were alarmed and rushed to demand the Undying Emperor's human skin, and the Nine Li Map, Great Emperor Sword, and Heaven-Devouring Pot almost suppressed them all at once.

At the same time, major events also occurred in the Eastern Wasteland. The Primordial Ancient Mine emitted mists and glows for half a month, attracting all the sacred lands.

This time, major forces from both the Northern Plains and the Eastern Wasteland did not rush to this location, all due to unusual activity at the Primordial Ancient Mine.

The world was on the brink of chaos. Everyone felt that the peaceful era would be shattered. The Ten Thousand Ancient Races would emerge, various immortal abodes would open, and forbidden lands in the world would become abnormal. These were all signs of what was to come.

Outside, there was a great uproar, and people discussed fervently.

Half a month later, the Yin-Yang Sect, a power in Central Province comparable to a divine dynasty, issued a public notice. They declared a full-world hunt for Ye Fan, promising a substantial reward to anyone who provided clues.

However, Ye Fan showed no fear. On that very day, he stepped forward and solemnly warned the two great forces to immediately revoke their kill orders, or face the consequences.

The world was in an uproar. A young cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Realm dared to speak such words, issuing a warning to an immortal heritage of Central Province. How audacious!

In response, the Yin-Yang Sect was decisive. They issued six consecutive kill orders, deploying all their experts to find Ye Fan, extract his soul, and suppress him.

No one expected Ye Fan's reaction to be even more intense. He declared that he would slaughter the entire younger generation of the Yin-Yang Sect, making them afraid to ever select another Saint Son or Saintess.

Furthermore, unless all their young disciples currently traveling were recalled, he would kill them one by one, or two by two, as he encountered them.

The entire world was aghast. This monstrous talent from the Eastern Wasteland had truly come into his own, daring to threaten an immortal heritage of Central Province in such a manner.

"If I can kill one Yin-Yang Saint Son, I can kill a second. If I can kill one Yin-Yang Saintess, I can continue to kill them!"

Ye Fan's provocations spread across half of Central Province. This was a blatant exposure of their weakness and a direct threat, but people believed he might actually carry it out.

Within days, the entire Yin-Yang Sect was enraged. Several graves in their ancestral burial ground had been dug up and plundered by a thief...
