The Undying Great Power was sent flying once again.
The Gate Lord of the Heavenly Gate was overwhelmingly powerful, displaying supreme and invincible divine might of the Great Dao, unleashing the most terrifying techniques from the very start.
The sky collapsed for a hundred thousand li, torn asunder high in the firmament, as boundless Great Power might swept through the nine heavens and earth.
It was too fast. So fast that the other Great Powers had not even reacted before the Undying Great Power was directly blasted away, sent flying tens of thousands of li, blood spraying across the heavens and earth.
The Great Powers of the myriad realms found it hard to believe, never expecting the other party to be so direct and ruthless.
The Undying Great Power's expression changed even more; the strength of the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord was beyond his expectations.
However, a Great Power was ultimately a Great Power. Who among those who could achieve the Great Power realm was a simple character? The Undying Great Power immediately reacted, stabilizing his form as he stood in the void.
He had not suffered overly severe injuries; he had merely been caught off guard by the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord's attack and suffered a loss, sustaining some wounds.
At this moment, he suppressed his injuries, infinite Great Power divine might erupting as he directly confronted the attack.
Moreover, he manifested a colossal Heaven-Earth Dharma Form. A majestic and towering divine statue appeared between heaven and earth, bringing with it a vast netherworld to block the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord.
Similarly, Di Yang, the Great Power from the Sun God Dynasty, the ancient Great Sage Gu Changsheng, the Primordial Times Demon God, and several other ancient Great Sages from the myriad realms who had once fought side-by-side to scheme against and kill the Battle Great Power could not just stand by and watch the Undying Great Power be pursued and killed by the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord. They all charged forward.
Boom—
Venerable Flame God and Xia Zhidi crossed the sky, intercepting two Great Powers. Venerable Saint Feather intercepted another Great Power, while the Primordial Times Barbarian God King blocked the Primordial Times Demon God.
Four ancient Great Sages were intercepted, but two Great Powers still managed to charge past, unable to be truly stopped.
With the aid of the two ancient Great Sages, the Undying Great Power quickly stabilized himself. He even roared loudly, "Fellow Daoists, let us join forces to suppress and kill him. His origins are mysterious, and within his body lies a mysterious ancient gate. Perhaps it can resonate with the Profound Ancient Gate, eliminating the need for the River of Time."
This made the eyes of the myriad realm Great Powers light up. This might truly be a method.
"Good!"
The other two Great Powers were precisely the ones from the Sun God Dynasty and the Dark Night Ancient Hall—one presiding over the Sun, the other over the Moon.
Seizing this opportunity, the Undying Great Power consumed the most precious divine essence, an absolute treasure pill from the Undying Sacred Land. Immediately, his entire body radiated light, and his injuries recovered by more than half.
Yet, the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord remained fearless of everything. Four holy spirits rushed out, and the Great Dao of Life and Death erupted. Endless vitality and death energy surged forth, transforming into a Life-Death Taiji diagram that enveloped his body. Life and Death energies flowed within it, reversing life and death as he charged forward to kill.
Boom—
An intense explosion occurred in this starfield, shaking the entire world. The Heavenly Gate Gate Lord was confronting three ancient Great Sages. How supremely brave and peerless was this!
"Junior of the Heavenly Gate, do not be so arrogant! Today, we shall take your head!"
The three Great Sages stood side-by-side and charged forward to kill.
Everyone felt a sense of unease. No matter how powerful the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord was, could he truly confront three ancient Great Sages alone?
The Great Powers of the myriad realms felt it was unlikely. Perhaps the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord could overpower the Undying Great Power, but simultaneously facing three ancient Great Sages? No one in the Great Power realm could achieve that, not even the Great Powers of Emperor Clans.
Nevertheless, they still looked towards the Great Power-level confrontation in the starry sky—unprecedentedly intense. Four ancient Great Sages were in confrontation, each like a blazing great sun that could illuminate the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, visible to all in the world.
Visible to the naked eye, stars in the starry sky were shattered one after another, appearing incredibly fragile before the ancient Great Sages.
Immortal light, resplendent and dazzling, pierced through past and present. The Heavenly Gate Gate Lord, heroic and peerless, possessed offensive power beyond imagination, reaching a level difficult for the world to comprehend. He was more like an invincible War God descending to slay enemies, sweeping all before him, impossible to oppose.
In the Great Power-level battle, the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord was incomparably brave, his hair flying. The four holy spirits were blasted out by him, destroying everything.
Moreover, he strode forward. A sword appeared in his hand—more accurately, a great sword formed from a waterfall—erupting with billions of sword rays that surged through the starry sky, annihilating everything as he forcefully engaged the three ancient Great Sages in battle.
Boom—
Stars in the starry sky were annihilated one after another, exploding into dust. It was truly terrifying.
The Heavenly Gate Gate Lord's bravery crowned the present age. He moved like a dragon through the world. His left hand radiated billions of zhang of light, with the source of life appearing. His right hand was pitch-black, permeated with death energy. Two completely different Great Dao powers combined, transforming into a Life-Death Taiji diagram that he applied to himself, striking out horizontally.
"Seeking death!"
In the starry sky, the Great Power from the Sun God Dynasty roared, his entire body ablaze with billions of zhang of holy fire that incinerated the starfield, igniting star after star across a million-li expanse of space as he charged forth.
The Great Power from the Dark Night Ancient Hall was permeated with Yin energy, the Moon manifesting, shattering the starry sky.
The Moon and Sun combined. The two Great Powers from the Sacred Lands joined forces, Yin and Yang transforming into each other, also forming a Taiji diagram that swept out.
Behind them, the Undying Great Power swallowed the essence starlight of over a dozen stars, repairing most of his injuries. A terrifying death scythe appeared in his hand, and he too attacked.
Above the Imperial City, the Great Powers of the myriad realms confronted each other. Neither side acted rashly, but anyone could see that no matter how powerful the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord was now, he would still fall into a disadvantage. He could not possibly be a match for three ancient Great Sages.
However, soon, everyone's expressions changed.
Because as the battle progressed later on, the three ancient Great Sages were all blasted away, their divine robes torn, blood trickling from the corners of their mouths. This was a terrifying display of heaven-defying combat power.
"How is this possible!?"
The Great Powers of the myriad realms were all shocked and astonished, unable to believe what was before their eyes.
Especially the three ancient Great Sages, their figures sent flying, filled with horror.
How could the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord be so powerful? This offensive power was beyond imagination, beyond comprehension. He alone had swept through them, three ancient Great Sages. It was simply unprecedented.
Yet this fact was happening right before their eyes.
The Heavenly Gate Gate Lord was enveloped within the Life-Death Taiji diagram. Life and Death energies flowed within, forming a circle of the Taiji diagram, impervious to all techniques, indestructible and immortal, blocking the attacks of the three ancient Great Sages. Moreover, he wielded the flowing waterfall, attacking forcefully.
This Great Dao Ancestral Artifact of the Heavenly Gate unleashed terrifying offensive power in his hands that surpassed everything, sharp and boundless. Star after star was sliced apart by sword rays, unstoppable.
The three ancient Great Sages were all cut, with sheets of blood splashing across the starry sky, giving rise to a mournful yet dazzling blood light that illuminated the myriad realms.
The three Great Sages flew back. To be forced to retreat by a single person in a battle of the same realm was something unimaginable, unprecedented. Moreover, he was a newly-advanced Great Power. This was a great humiliation.
But no matter what, they had to admit the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord's peerless strength, which exceeded all imagination.
Without a doubt, this was an extremely intense Great Power-level battle that shook the entire vast starry sky. Infinite light radiated throughout the entire Ancient Emperor Realm, causing the people of the Ancient Emperor Continent to tremble.
It was as if true deities were at war. Even if Saint Lord-level figures charged into it, a single fluctuation would be enough to annihilate them thousands of times over.
Boom—
A terrifying blood light suddenly erupted. The ancient Great Power from the Sun God Dynasty nearly met disaster. Struck by the flowing waterfall sword ray, his right arm was severed and exploded. Blood light burst into the heavens, also burning the firmament and incinerating several stars.
It was too terrifying. This level of Great Power existence's battle far exceeded the world's imagination.
Now, the Great Powers of the myriad realms no longer made a move against Yi Wu in the Central Heavenly Palace. All attention was focused on the starry sky. Even now, there were still some peerless existences who had not yet emerged, but they were also closely watching.
The Sun Great Power paled in horror, retreating ten thousand li in an instant, all to avoid the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord's attack.
The three ancient Great Sages were exerting their full power to attack. Endless Great Dao laws surged forth overwhelmingly, blocking the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord's advance.
However, the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord's figure was ethereal, traversing the starry sky, each step a transformation and extinction, as if walking through countless ages and myriad worlds, dreamlike and illusory, elusive. All attacks could destroy starlight but could not truly get close to the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord.
It was as if he was walking in another spacetime, mysterious and bizarre.
This scene made the three Great Sages tremble in their hearts. Such a movement technique was too astonishing; how could they possibly attack him?
At some unknown time, the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord had already arrived before the Sun Great Power. He activated a divine ability, blasting out a divine seal that radiated boundless light, all of which surged towards his opponent, erupting with world-shaking destructive fluctuations that tore through the interstellar void.
Even with billions of zhang of radiance enveloping his body, the Sun Great Power was useless. Even with his own Great Power-level Immortal Ancient Weapon, it was futile. The Heavenly Gate Gate Lord attacked forcefully, blasting him away.
Moreover, a single fist pierced through his shoulder, tearing open his right arm, blood splashing across the starry sky.
In the next moment, the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord raised his hand and pressed down. The Life-Death Taiji diagram appeared, covering an area of a hundred thousand li.
The Sun Great Power's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly used the Immortal Ancient Weapon he had refined with his own body to block.
Boom—
The starry sky collapsed massively. The finger-palm pressed down, the Life-Death Taiji diagram like a hand of an ancient Great Emperor pressing down, sending the Sun Great Power flying. Even the Immortal Ancient Weapon protecting his body clanged, its light dimming, cracks appearing.
Naturally, the Sun Great Power coughed up large mouthfuls of blood. As powerful as a Great Power-level treasure body was, even with divine robes protecting him, his flesh was on the verge of splitting, nearly shattered to pieces.
One could imagine just how terrifying this strike from the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord was.
The other two Great Sages came to reinforce him; otherwise, sooner or later, the Sun Great Power would be slain. They had reason to believe that here, probably not a single Great Power could face the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord alone without fear. Joining forces was the best method; otherwise, they would be defeated one by one.
The Great Power-level battle continued. Clearly, the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord was peerless and unmatched, achieving an overwhelming victory.
He grew more courageous the more he fought, excessively strong, absurdly powerful, making one's heart race. Was this truly the combat power a newly-advanced Great Power should possess?
Three veteran Great Powers were being suppressed.
"Ah, Gate Lord of the Heavenly Gate, you force me to do this!" A shrill roar rang out in the starry sky.
Boom—
Suddenly, world-destroying, sky-overturning power erupted in the starry sky, even surpassing that of the ancient Great Sages.
It was the Sun Great Power and the Dark Night Ancient Hall Great Power, who had activated the Ancestral Weapons of their respective Sacred Lands. These were Sovereign-level Immortal Weapons left behind by the invincible Sun Sovereign and Dark Night Sovereign from the Mythical Era. They had been revived, originally intended for use in entering the Profound Ancient Gate, but now they had to be used prematurely.
"Gate Lord of the Heavenly Gate, no matter how powerful you are this time, you will be slain!"
The three ancient Great Sages spoke coldly. Sovereign-level Immortal Weapons were the invincible battle weapons of Sovereigns. Once revived, it was as if a Sovereign was waging war. Ancient Great Sages were nothing before a Sovereign, to be annihilated.
Boom—
The two Sovereign-level Immortal Weapons attacked, unleashing two of the most world-shaking immortal lights that shot into the starry sky. Immediately, star after star was shattered, turning into the most brilliant fireworks, also impacting towards the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord.
Above the Imperial City, when the various Great Powers saw the two peerless Great Powers using Sovereign-level Immortal Weapons, they all sucked in a cold breath but also sighed simultaneously, feeling regret.
Because no matter how dazzling the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord was, he was still only a Great Power. Sovereign-level Immortal Weapons possessed the peerless might to annihilate Great Powers, even if not fully revived.
"Gate Lord!"
In the Imperial City, the Three Immortal Maidens, the Peacock King, Yiyi, and the Golden Little Divine Dragon were all worried.
The Heavenly Gate Gate Lord instantly shifted horizontally, avoiding the terrifying attacks of the two Sovereign-level Immortal Weapons.
Dong—
A great bell appeared, actually forged entirely from Nine Tribulation Gold. It was the Sun Sovereign's Sun Divine Bell, golden radiance soaring brilliantly into the sky. Circles of golden ripples spread out—these were bell waves containing Sovereign might, rushing towards the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord, incomparably terrifying.
Boom boom boom—
In the distant sky, stars exploded one after another, like a dazzling display of fireworks blooming, a shocking sight.
The Great Powers of the myriad realms all changed color. Such power was too terrifying. Even Great Powers would meet disaster, annihilated under Sovereign-level Immortal Weapons.
The Heavenly Gate Gate Lord silently retreated over a hundred thousand li, not forcefully resisting, yet still standing firm in the starry sky.
On the other side, a Moon immortal light rushed over, transforming into a pitch-black giant dragon. But upon closer look, it was a Black Dragon Sword, with the dragon's head as the blade tip, flowing with black-gold hues, forged mainly from Abyssal Black Gold, permeated with Moon energy that corroded everything.
The Heavenly Gate Gate Lord shifted horizontally once again. The position where he had originally stood had a cluster of stars explode.
Boom—
The Sun Great Power, holding the Sun Divine Bell, unleashed a vast expanse of blazing golden radiance accompanied by endless immortal fire. The divine bell shook the Ancient Emperor Realm, cleaving directly towards the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord.
This was eternal immortal light, containing Sovereign heavenly might. It could be said to crush the decaying and establish the new, capable of destroying everything, reopening heaven and earth.
This time, the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord did not dodge. He was submerged by the eternal immortal light. That starfield was also struck into silence, a massive black hole appearing, pulverizing everything.
"Has the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord been slain?"
Everyone was watching, especially the Three Immortal Maidens and the others, whose expressions changed, intense worry arising, fearing something had happened to the Heavenly Gate Gate Lord.
Boom—
But the next moment, the immortal light exploded. The Heavenly Gate Gate Lord strode out, as heroic and majestic as ever.
At this moment, above his head, the thirty-three-layered Human Sovereign Pagoda floated up and down, boundless primordial chaos energy surging. And in his hand appeared a great bronze halberd—
Tianhuang!
"This time, I will have you offer blood sacrifices to the ancient gate, summoning the River of Time!" The Heavenly Gate Gate Lord spoke, his gaze shining through all ages!
