Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

This sudden turn of events shocked everyone present!

The Abbot, who had been so insufferably arrogant just moments before, couldn't be suppressed even by the combined efforts of Ye Chen and the Mansion Lord.

Yet now, he was being held effortlessly, like a helpless chick in someone's grasp!

And the one holding him was, of all things, a Primordial Spirit!

"That's a Primordial Spirit!" The Mansion Lord's pupils contracted as he stared at the colossal giant before them.

"A Primordial Spirit?" Ye Chen's expression flickered.

Above the Primordial Mansion Realm is the Divinity Transformation Realm!

Only by successfully condensing a Primordial Spirit can one truly break through to become a Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivator!!!

'In other words, a Cultivator at or above the Divinity Transformation Realm has just appeared in Lei Province?!'

The Abbot looked up at the giant before him, his face a mask of terror.

The giant was so enormous that its head reached into the thick clouds, obscuring its features.

"Who are you?" the Abbot asked, his voice trembling with terror.

"Let me go! Let me go!!!"

The demonic face on his chest was also struggling constantly, letting out shrill, hoarse screams.

"Evil cultivators are a scourge upon this world. Wherever you go, rivers of blood flow and mountains of bones pile up!"

"You cultivate the evil path, hiding within my Lei Province, harboring wicked intentions, and even dreaming of ruling the world!"

"Did you truly think you could disregard my presence?"

The giant spoke, its voice deep and powerful.

The rolling waves of sound directly dispersed the black Flames that filled the sky.

"Senior, please calm your anger! This is all just a misunderstanding!"

"I only cultivate the evil path to break through to Divinity Transformation as quickly as possible!"

The Abbot was truly panicking now.

In the giant's palm, no matter how much power he exerted, its fingers didn't budge an inch.

The tide of Spiritual Power surging within him crashed against the giant's palm, but it was like a mere tickle, completely harmless.

He could clearly feel the immense, chasm-like gap in power between them.

This being before him was, without a doubt, a genuine Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivator!

'Were my previous actions truly too rampant?'

'To think I'd actually attract a Great Power like this!!!'

"A misunderstanding?"

"Your words are rather amusing."

"To break through to Divinity Transformation, weren't you planning to devour the flesh and blood of the Cultivators below? That is the very essence of the demonic path!"

"This is a matter that threatens the very foundation of my Lei Province's Cultivation Realm. How could I possibly let you have your way!"

"Such savage ambition! Watch as I crush you in the palm of my hand!"

The giant applied a bit of pressure.

Instantly, the sound of bones cracking echoed from the Abbot's body!

"AHHH—"

The Abbot let out a series of blood-curdling roars. The intense pain nearly made him pass out.

His skull felt like it would explode under the immense pressure!

The profound Spiritual Power of the Primordial Mansion Realm's Ninth Layer slammed against the meridians in his body, trying to erupt outwards.

But the Abbot only felt his meridians about to burst from the force, yet he still couldn't shake the giant in the slightest!

"Eradicating demons and defending the righteous path is the duty of every Cultivator!"

"My Lei Province will absolutely not permit an existence like you!"

Just then, a bolt of lightning shot down from the clouds, transforming into a human figure.

He wore a green robe and was clean-shaven. His handsome, jade-like face carried a faint, cold indifference.

Vast arcs of lightning coiled around his body, and his feet stood upon two bolts of it, making him look like a thunder god descending to the mortal realm. His might was staggering, a truly shocking sight!

With his appearance, the entire night seemed to be dispelled by the brilliant lightning.

Looking out across the lands of Lei Province, everything was bathed in a brilliant light, so much so that many people thought it was already dawn!

Finally, all the lightning surrounding the green-robed figure converged.

It then transformed into two beams of light that shot directly into his pupils.

His gaze was like lightning as he looked indifferently at the Abbot not far away.

Seeing the green-robed figure before him,

the Abbot finally stopped struggling. In its place was nothing but utter despair on his face!

"Your Eminence! You've come!" the Mansion Lord suddenly cried out, his face filled with joyous surprise.

"Your Eminence?"

Ye Chen was startled, and then his expression changed drastically.

'Could this green-robed figure be the one who left behind countless legends in the lands of Lei Province, the one known as the true strongest person in Lei Province?!'

The world knows him as...

Venerable Ming Lei!!!

"It's Venerable Ming Lei!"

"My heavens! I can't believe I'm actually seeing His Eminence in my lifetime!"

"Didn't His Eminence already leave Lei Province to pursue a higher realm? Why would he appear in Lei Province now?"

"It must be because a crisis has befallen Lei Province! He must have sensed it and rushed back from thousands of miles away!"

"His Eminence still cares for Lei Province! He is truly worthy of being called the number one person in our Lei Province!"

After seeing Venerable Ming Lei's true face, the crowd below erupted into excited cheers!

The appearance of Venerable Ming Lei could be said to have declared a decisive end to this conflict!

No one would dare question Venerable Ming Lei, an ultimate powerhouse whose fame had spread even beyond Lei Province!

Everyone knew very well.

As long as he was here, even an expert at the Ninth Layer of the Primordial Mansion Realm like the Abbot could only bow his head in submission!

Furthermore, the moment Venerable Ming Lei acted, he had revealed his Primordial Spirit.

This was equivalent to announcing to the entire Lei Province Cultivation Realm that he had ascended to the Divinity Transformation Realm!

This was a true Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivator!

Any being beneath the Divinity Transformation Realm, no matter how much they struggled, could never escape the grasp of a Divinity Transformation Cultivator!

"Your Eminence, please spare me!"

"It took me so much effort to cultivate to this realm! I'm only a single step away from Divinity Transformation! I don't know how much blood and sweat I've poured into this!"

"I can promise that I will never kill again! I'm willing to be your slave, Your Eminence! I only beg you to spare my life!"

After seeing Venerable Ming Lei's true face,

the Abbot broke down, tears streaming down his old face as he begged for his life.

At this moment, his heart was finally filled with regret.

But it was all irreversible.

Hate!

He hated Ye Chen to the core!

If Ye Chen hadn't forced him into a corner, why would he have ever revealed his identity as an evil cultivator?

'And everyone said Venerable Ming Lei had already left Lei Province! Who could have possibly imagined that a being who had broken through to Divinity Transformation would still be lingering here?'

The demonic face on the Abbot's chest, however, seemed to know no fear.

It was still clamoring, "Let me go! Let me go! Believe it or not, I'll devour you!"

Ye Chen watched this scene unfold in silence, sighing with emotion inwardly.

'The once-unbeatable fiend was now trembling in fear.'

'Before a true Divinity Transformation Cultivator, even a Cultivator at the Ninth Layer of the Primordial Mansion Realm was nothing more than a slightly stronger ant!'

"The promise of an evil cultivator is worth less than dogshit."

"The gap between the Primordial Mansion Realm and Divinity Transformation is a chasm! To break through, you would have undoubtedly brought a massive slaughter upon Lei Province!"

"Today, I must rid the Lei Province Cultivation Realm of a scourge like you!"
