Chapter 703 The Star River Trembles, the Great Dao Laments
The Milky Way trembled, and the Great Dao wailed.
The laws of the entire universe trembled violently under the terrifying destructive power of these two Emperor-level powerhouses, as if they were about to collapse and break at any moment.
This great battle, which took place in the most remote part of the universe, produced terrifying phenomena and commotions that were not only not concealed by the desolate wilderness, but also spread rapidly throughout the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths at an incredible speed through the resonance of the Great Dao Laws of the universe's origin!
Throughout the universe, countless ancient planets inhabited by life, countless prosperous star fields, and countless mortal kingdoms were all shaken by this sudden celestial phenomenon.
To ordinary mortals who had not embarked on the path of cultivation, the sky suddenly underwent a strange change.
The once clear blue sky or the starry night was unexpectedly divided into two completely different colors.
Half of the sky was dyed a sacred and majestic brilliant gold, as if ancient gods were sprinkling golden raindrops from the clouds.
The other half of the sky was filled with crimson lightning and fiery clouds, with thunder like dragons and fire like the sea, as if the end of the world had arrived.
These two distinct and wondrous lights intertwined in the sky, transforming into a dazzling aurora borealis.
In the dim light, mortals could still vaguely see a golden halberd tearing through the sky and a supreme divine sword burning with thunder and fire constantly clashing amidst the aurora-filled sky.
The vast majority of ordinary people and creatures at the bottom of society have no idea what has happened.
They simply raised their heads in awe, gazing up at this spectacle that is rarely seen even once in a hundred or even ten thousand years.
"What an extraordinary phenomenon! It's truly astonishing!"
"This is a miracle! It must be the gods in heaven battling it out!"
"Hahaha, having lived for seventy years, witnessing this miracle, I have no regrets even in death!"
Countless mortals knelt on the ground, bowing and worshipping towards the sky, chanting prayers.
They marveled at the magnificence and mystery of the scene, regarding it as a divine will or some kind of auspicious omen.
However, for those who have embarked on the path of cultivation, especially those high-level cultivators who have reached a certain level of cultivation, this is by no means a beautiful sight to behold, but a terrifying storm that can make their souls tremble!
In the holy lands, noble families, and ancient sects of various star systems, those old recluses who usually remained in seclusion were all awakened at this moment.
They felt a suppression originating from the depths of their souls, a terrifying pressure that halted the magical power within them.
"This...this fluctuation...this supreme aura that makes all paths submit..."
An ancestor at the Great Sage realm, who had been living in seclusion for many years, stood atop the highest peak of his own sacred land, his gaze piercing through the endless galaxy, fixed intently on the direction of the desolate edge of the universe.
His body was trembling violently and uncontrollably, and even his voice was filled with panic and endless awe.
"These are Emperors battling! Supreme powerhouses at the Emperor level are engaged in a life-or-death struggle!"
The Great Sage Ancestor's exclamation instantly caused a huge uproar among the high-ranking officials of various forces.
Countless powerful individuals gasped in shock, their hearts filled with astonishment.
The Great Emperor! He is an invincible being who stands at the pinnacle of humanity, overlooking eternity and suppressing an era.
Under normal circumstances, only one emperor can attain enlightenment in an era.
The Great Emperor is invincible in the world; there is simply no one who would warrant their full attention.
And now, the fluctuations coming from the heavens and earth clearly indicate that an emperor and a supreme being are engaged in a life-or-death battle with no reservations!
"My God, is this the legendary power of the Great Emperor?"
"Even though the battlefield is in that remote, desolate edge of the universe, the strange phenomena and commotion of this battle can disregard spatial distance and, through the resonance of the Great Dao, permeate almost the entire universe!"
A veteran near-emperor sighed, his face pale.
He had thought he was only one step away from the Great Emperor realm, but after feeling this real clash of ultimate powers, he deeply understood that the gap between a Quasi-Emperor and a Great Emperor was an insurmountable chasm!
The saying "Below the Emperor, all are but ants" is no exaggeration.
Just when cultivators throughout the universe were filled with panic and shock over this battle of emperors.
In an ancient star system in an extremely remote part of the universe, there once stood a glorious star system belonging to the Protoss.
The God Race is a powerful race that once flourished in the ancient times and ruled over all the heavens and myriad worlds.
Golden divine blood flows through their veins, they are naturally close to the Great Dao, and possess extremely terrifying cultivation talent.
At this moment, on the ancestral planet of the Protoss in the very center of the Protoss star system, a magnificent ancestral temple dedicated to the sages of the Protoss throughout the ages is experiencing a violent tremor.
At the very top of the ancestral temple, a golden statue that was originally covered in the dust of time suddenly burst forth with divine radiance.
The face of this statue is exactly the same as that of the ancient god emperor who is fighting on the edge of the universe!
The resurrection of the statue alarmed all the powerful figures on the ancestral planet of the gods.
Several powerful deities, exuding an aura of decay and whose cultivation had reached the peak of the Great Saint realm or even the Quasi-Emperor realm, hurriedly arrived at the ancestral temple.
When they saw the radiant statue of the god and felt the familiar yet domineering golden divine king's law emanating from the cosmos, the expressions of these powerful gods instantly changed.
"This aura...this golden divine king's law...and the phantom of that divine emperor's halberd that shattered the starry sky..."
The leading elder of the divine race, a powerful being who had lived for thousands of years, stared into the depths of the starry sky with a trembling voice, his cloudy old eyes filled with an incredible light.
"I would never be mistaken! This is the supreme law unique to our divine race! And the only one capable of elevating the God-King Law to its ultimate level... is that one!"
"Our divine race's supreme pride, who attained enlightenment in the ancient times—the Celestial Emperor!"
The powerful beings of the divine race recognized the owner of this aura.
However, upon recognizing it, what followed was not the ecstatic joy of the ancestor manifesting his divine power, but a deep bitterness and disbelief.
A smile, even more bitter than bitter melon, appeared on the lips of the Grand Elder of the Divine Race.
According to the ancient records of the gods, a terrible dark upheaval once broke out in the universe in the primordial era.
In order to protect all living beings in the universe and safeguard the reproduction of the divine race, the ancient emperor of the heavens, in his later years when his life force was declining, resolutely picked up the Divine Emperor Halberd and charged into the forbidden zone of life. In the end, he perished together with a supreme being who had instigated the turmoil, his blood staining the starry sky.
In the hearts of the descendants of the gods, the ancient emperor was a great hero who saved the world and an inviolable supreme totem!
Countless children of the gods grew up listening to the tragic and heroic deeds of the ancient god, the Heavenly Emperor.
But now, reality has given them a harsh slap in the face.
The Heavenly God Ancient Emperor did not die in the battle to quell the rebellion that he fought to protect all living beings.
Not only did he not die, but in order to live and pursue that elusive immortality, he ultimately betrayed his faith and the common people, cut himself and fell from the throne, transforming into the very thing he once hated most. As the supreme ruler of the forbidden zone who instigated the dark turmoil, he has been barely surviving until now!
