Nine Heavens Martial Emperor

Lin Wu infused the Power of Origin from his Harmony Dominator Body into the Cyan Lotus, sundering the heavens and replacing the firmament.

Yet, Lin Hao was even more terrifying. Faced with such power from Lin Wu, the aura surging within him instantly turned tens of millions of swords to dust.

This was what it meant to truly defy the heavens!

On the battlefield beyond the heavens, the color drained from Lin Wu’s face.

The terrifying divine might erupting from Lin Hao not only pulverized tens of millions of swords, but it also sent shockwaves through the very world Lin Wu had manifested.

It was inconceivable.

Lin Wu felt an immense pressure.

Lin Hao stood perfectly still, yet his presence sent a chill down Lin Wu’s spine.

He possessed the Harmony Dominator Body; no one had ever made him feel this way before.

Lin Wu’s Spiritual Sense was unbelievably powerful.

The reawakening of Lin Hao’s bloodline was suppressing his Divine Soul, preventing him from sensing the full power of Lin Hao’s own Harmony Dominator Body. Even so, Lin Wu knew with certainty that if he didn’t act now, he would lose his chance forever.

CLANG!

Even though the Cyan Lotus sword had vanished, Lin Wu’s power remained terrifyingly vast.

With a shift of his gaze, two swords shot out from his very eyes!

These two swords were even more terrifying than the Cyan Lotus sword had been.

The two swords tore through the void and shot toward Lin Hao at the pinnacle of speed.

Simultaneously, the Cyan Lotus above Lin Wu’s head swayed. Chaos Qi poured forth, every wisp transforming into a sword.

If the Cyan Lotus had previously manifested tens of millions of swords, these Chaos Swords now numbered in the hundreds of trillions!

These Chaos Swords were Heaven-Slaying Swords, each one capable of suppressing the very firmament. Their terror was immeasurable.

A dense, overwhelming torrent of swords slashed toward Lin Hao, submerging not just the battlefield beyond the heavens, but the entire sky.

"How terrifying!"

All the Martial Artists were horrified.

For their battle to reach such a stage, where even a casual attack possessed such divine might, was simply unimaginable.

"Just as I thought. The era of heroes vying for supremacy is upon us once more. This will be a brilliant, great age... a Great Emperor is about to be born," the Realm Lord murmured.

As the personification of the Divinity Realm’s will, he was exceptionally sensitive to the aura of a Great Emperor. In this very moment, their battle had allowed him a glimpse of fate’s design.

The sky was completely blotted out. The crowd could no longer see what was happening on the battlefield, only the collapsing void and divine power that illuminated the world.

It was a truly apocalyptic scene, as if the heavens were rent asunder and the sun and moon had lost their light.

On the battlefield beyond the heavens, Lin Hao dodged the twin swords that flew from Lin Wu’s eyes, foiling the surprise attack.

Although Lin Hao’s eyes were not yet suffused with purple qi, he was still using the power of the Harmony Dominator Body. He had seen through the nature of this attack; it could not harm him.

However, the Chaos Swords from the Cyan Lotus were not so easy to handle.

Although the Power of Origin from the Harmony Dominator Body had been fused into the Cyan Lotus, the lotus’s own power was now dominant.

It was a power that could make the very firmament submit—a catastrophic threat for Lin Hao.

The moment the Chaos Swords emerged, Lin Hao made his move.

He couldn’t afford to wait for his bloodline to fully reawaken. He had no path of retreat.

It wasn’t just the Chaos Swords attacking him; the entire sky was pressing down!

Lin Wu now dominated the heavens, the sole sovereign of this world.

At this moment, he was a peerless hegemon who had crossed the river of time itself!

"This battle is about to end!" a Martial Artist cried out.

Although they couldn’t see the battlefield, they could feel Lin Wu’s presence dominating the heavens like a sovereign ruler. Lin Hao had no chance of turning this around.

"Alas, what a pity..." many Martial Artists sighed for Lin Hao’s sake.

Though many among them held grudges against Lin Hao, after watching the battle unfold, even they had to admit he was astonishingly talented.

He had lost his bloodline, yet he had not been at a disadvantage in his duel against Lin Wu.

RUMBLE!

The sky shattered. The battlefield beyond the heavens began to tremble and crack.

The Chaos Swords still filled the air, but their numbers were rapidly dwindling. More bizarrely, the remaining swords seemed to freeze in place, as if imprisoned within the void.

Lin Hao’s figure appeared amidst them, and to everyone’s astonishment, he had not perished!

Lin Hao stood there proudly, like an eternal, unyielding monument!

"What?!" Everyone was horrified, scarcely able to believe their eyes.

Lin Wu had dominated the heavens and unleashed his Heaven-Slaying Swords. Now, most of those swords were gone, yet Lin Hao stood completely unscathed. They had no idea how he had done it.

"You... You..." Lin Wu stared at Lin Hao, utterly shaken.

"What was never yours will never truly be yours," Lin Hao said, his tone flat.

"I have achieved a perfect fusion with the Purple Blood! I am destined to be the unrivaled sovereign of heaven and earth! No one can stand in my way!"

Lin Wu suddenly roared, his hair whipping about as terrifying arcs of lightning crackled through it. His voice shook the heavens, causing the very firmament to resonate in response.

At the same time, the Cyan Lotus hovering over his head began to frantically devour the essence of heaven and earth.

And that wasn’t all. A strange sound echoed from within Lin Wu’s body. His Dantian was a sea of primordial chaos where Hongmeng Purple Qi churned and swelled.

"You’re not the only one who can command the Dao Sound! So can I! I have fused the Dao Sound into my very bloodline! No one can stop me! Even with your bloodline restored, it won’t be enough!"

Lin Wu was going berserk, on the verge of using his final, forbidden techniques.

His aura swelled to a terrifying, monstrous level, sweeping across the entire world. An air of absolute supremacy began to emanate from him.

A massive section of the battlefield beyond the heavens broke off and instantly disintegrated into dust!

The Chaos Qi-forged Heaven-Slaying Swords hovering in the void stirred once more.

As the Cyan Lotus devoured the essence of heaven and earth, even more Heaven-Slaying Swords materialized, blanketing the void once again.

The battlefield was completely obscured, and the spectators could no longer see the two combatants.

Only the young man from the Divine Race, the maiden from the Demon Race, and a select few other people and beasts could still perceive the scene.

Lin Wu was in a frenzy. Not only had he launched his Heaven-Slaying Swords, but he had personally joined the fray, determined to slaughter Lin Hao.

Just a moment ago, he had finally understood the source of Lin Hao’s power.

Lin Hao’s bloodline was reawakening!

The reawakened bloodline was even more terrifying and powerful than before. To possess such divine might before it had even fully recovered... ’If his bloodline fully reawakens, it will be a catastrophe.’

Lin Wu would not allow that to happen.

And so, Lin Wu employed his forbidden technique—what was likely his most powerful attack.

Lin Hao was under immense suppressive pressure. The reawakening of his bloodline accelerated, but it still couldn’t reach completion.

This was the most perilous moment of Lin Hao’s life.

Not only did he have to deal with tens of millions of Heaven-Slaying Swords entering his body, but he also had to face Lin Wu’s own powerful assault!

Lin Wu could make a Cyan Lotus bloom and replace the sky, but Lin Hao was no weaker; he had long been able to create a world and manifest the sun and moon with his will alone. Now, Lin Hao’s body became a crucible. He allowed the Heaven-Slaying Swords to enter him, intending to refine them directly.

This was exactly what he had done just moments before.

Though his Harmony Dominator Body had not fully reawakened, it had already forged his physical form to be incomparably powerful, just a hair’s breadth away from achieving physical sainthood.

His physique and imperial arts fused, refined by the sun and moon, transforming him into a living crucible!

But Lin Wu’s current attack was even stronger. With his bloodline still not fully reawakened, even refining the seemingly inexhaustible supply of Heaven-Slaying Swords was taking a tremendous toll on Lin Hao.

Coupled with Lin Wu’s direct assault, Lin Hao was in constant, mortal danger.

In the distance, the Divine Race youth’s eyes glittered. "His bloodline is reawakening, and he’s turned his body into a crucible to refine the very heavens. This is a formidable rival!"

Behind the youth, the divine servant’s eyes flickered.
