Divine Wilderness Dragon Emperor

Chapter 496 -495: The Celestial Emperor’s Might

“Emperor Tang!” When Emperor Tang’s figure appeared in the skies of the Great Tang, even Wei Wuya’s expression turned grave.

After all, Emperor Tang’s true self was currently in the Southern Wilderness Martial Arts World!

Although that place and the Great Tang Empire were both in the Southern Wilderness, the distance between them was more than a million li.

Yet, Emperor Tang’s Dharma Aspect had appeared here. Such a technique was not something a Cultivator at the Divine Mansion Realm, or even the Daoist Palace Realm, could perform!

The three experts from the Corpse Spirit Hall looked up at the sky, their faces filled with apprehension.

The citizens of the Great Tang Empire were all alarmed.

“What’s happening?”

“His Majesty has deployed his Dharma Aspect again?” Many citizens of the Great Tang looked astonished.

Emperor Tang’s Holy Decree had appeared in the Southern Wilderness, but its reach hadn’t extended to the Great Tang, so many people were unaware of what was currently happening.

The farther the Holy Decree’s reach, the more Heart Spirit it consumed. Emperor Tang’s current power was not yet enough; he was far from being able to cover the entire Southern Wilderness.

His appearance now immediately drew the attention of countless citizens of the Great Tang.

“Corpse Spirit Hall, have you come to my Great Tang hoping to awaken the Corpse Ancestor?” In the sky, Emperor Tang’s figure gradually solidified. He stood in the air, looking down, his gaze filled with majesty. An aura that could command the world and control the fates of men radiated from him—this was the might of a Monarch.

“Emperor Tang!” Facing Emperor Tang, Wei Wuya also felt immense pressure.

At the same time, the two Corpse Spirit Hall experts beside him had already sent a message to their people in the Southern Wilderness, relaying this news so that everyone would know Emperor Tang’s true capabilities. After all, Emperor Tang’s methods had clearly surpassed what was possible for the Divine Mansion Realm. If they underestimated him, it could lead to irreversible consequences.

“Emperor Tang’s Dharma Aspect has appeared in the Great Tang as well?” Near the North Spirit Ruins, Kun Hai and the others immediately received this news.

Beiming Huahai was deeply shaken by this.

Such a method could truly be described as having Heaven-Reaching abilities.

“Projecting a Dharma Aspect from a million li away, even if he is the Celestial Emperor of the Great Tang and wields the Celestial Emperor’s Divine Artifact, will consume a massive amount of his Heart Spirit. His combat strength will be limited.” Kun Hai, however, remained nonchalant. He sent a message telling Wei Wuya not to worry and to fight without holding back. If anything happened, he could take action in the Southern Wilderness to tie down Emperor Tang.

‘Indeed. I refuse to believe he can suppress me from a million li away.’ A glint flashed in Wei Wuya’s eyes as a boundless aura erupted from within him.

In terms of Cultivation, he was comparable to a Human Race Cultivator at the Perfect Divine Mansion Realm and was on the verge of breaking through to the Daoist Palace Realm.

Besides, he also wielded a Supreme Treasure. If he went all out, he might even be able to contend with a Daoist Palace Realm expert.

Even if Emperor Tang was heaven-defying, this was ultimately just his Dharma Aspect Body.

“You two, go tear open the Seal! I will hold off this Emperor Tang!” A low voice came from Wei Wuya’s lips as he spoke to the two men beside him.

“Yes!” Immediately, a glint flashed in the eyes of the two Divine Mansion Realm Celestial Corpses beside him, and weapons materialized in their hands.

One held a rusted long spear, the other a Battle Halberd.

“Attack!” Wei Wuya ordered. The Bone Staff in his hand was wreathed in Corpse Qi, and corpse spirits flickered around it as an astonishing aura erupted.

As his words fell, the two experts had already struck, intending to tear apart the Holy Decree at the Xiling Ruins.

SWISH!

The long spear pierced the Void, erupting with a malevolent Corpse Qi that defiled the Emperor’s Qi radiating from the Holy Decree.

The other man’s Battle Halberd split the air, its gleaming edge tearing a rift as it went straight for the Holy Decree.

Instantly, the Holy Decree burst with golden light, transforming into a Golden Dragon that charged toward their attacks.

However, after the previous strike, the Holy Decree’s power had already weakened, and it failed to gain any advantage.

“Today, We shall enact justice on behalf of the heavens!” Just as the two Celestial Corpses struck, Emperor Tang made his move from the sky above.

He extended a great hand, from which golden light bloomed. As intricate patterns flowed across it, it seemed as if a True Dragon was roaring, or as if the patterns of the Great Dao itself were intertwining.

WHOOSH!

As this great hand reached out and pressed down, the Void below it shattered. Mountains trembled and began to crack, and the sound of sonic booms echoed continuously through the air.

The astonishing Power was terrifying.

“Such terrifying Power!”

“Who is His Majesty fighting?” The Cultivators near the Xiling Ruins were all terrified.

An attack like this was too terrifying, like the descent of Divine Might. In the Southern Wilderness, how many Cultivators like this even existed?

As the great hand descended with overwhelming momentum, the terrifying aura it unleashed shattered the attack of the two Corpse Spirit Hall experts—the very attack that had just defeated the Golden Dragon manifested from the Holy Decree. The two Celestial Corpses were inwardly terrified, looking up at the Void with dread. That hand was like a divine intervention, chilling them to the bone.

As the great hand fell, Wei Wuya frowned. The Light Patterns on his Bone Staff flickered as the Corpse Spirit Souls within began to burn, unleashing terrifying Power. He had used a malevolent method to smelt the Soul of Ten Thousand Corpses, transforming them into corpse spirits and then nurturing them with Devouring Spirit Corpse Qi to strengthen himself.

Burning these Corpse Spirit Souls was like a Cultivator burning their own Essence Blood, allowing them to unleash a burst of offensive power.

WHOOSH!

As the Corpse Spirit Souls burned, a terrifying Corpse Qi erupted, causing the Bone Staff to transform into a 10,000-zhang-tall skull that smashed toward the great hand.

BANG!

As the Bone Staff smashed forward, the terrifying Corpse Qi burst out with it. That patch of the Void exploded, sending fragments flying and cracks spreading. The vast Corpse Qi rippled through the Void like a tidal wave, and wherever it passed, nearby mountains crumbled and great boulders were pulverized into dust.

The power of this strike was clearly comparable to that of a Daoist Palace Realm expert.

“Who is His Majesty fighting?” This level of shockwave terrified the Cultivators of Xiling County, and they murmured one after another.

BANG!

Under the impact of this shockwave, Emperor Tang’s great hand was stopped.

He moved his great hand, pulling it back.

Emperor Tang’s great hand retreated, but the two Celestial Corpses were sent staggering back again and again by the astonishing shockwave.

“This Emperor Tang is so strong!” Once they stabilized themselves, they both looked up at the sky, their faces filled with shock and their eyes flashing with sheer terror.

Wei Wuya was also sent staggering back.

‘Just now, I burned one hundred Corpse Spirit Souls to activate the Power within the Soul-Devouring Bone Staff, and yet I only barely managed to receive that one strike from Emperor Tang.’ After stabilizing himself, waves of shock crashed through Wei Wuya’s heart. ‘And this is merely Emperor Tang’s Dharma Aspect Body!’

‘If his true self were in the Great Tang, just how terrifying would his combat strength be?’

As shocked as he was, his expression also turned grim.

“Burning Corpse Soul Power… a clever little trick.” Above, Emperor Tang’s brow furrowed slightly. Then, his true self, far away in the Southern Wilderness, made a move. “Draw the Power of Heaven and Earth, and grant it unto me!” As his low voice sounded, Emperor Tang’s hands guided the Heavenly Son’s Seal, which sank into the Dragon Platform.

BUZZ!

Instantly, Light Patterns bloomed upon the Dragon Platform, and a vast Heaven and Earth Power rippled out.

Then, the aura of the very world of the Great Tang suddenly changed. An invisible power began to converge toward Emperor Tang’s Dharma Body in the sky.

This invisible power was faint on its own, but as it gathered together, it formed a terrifying and boundless Power.

The moment this Power of Heaven and Earth began to gather, Wei Wuya was struck with terror.

“This is bad! Emperor Tang’s aura is climbing! It’s as if he has communed with this world and is being empowered by its Heaven and Earth Power!” Wei Wuya’s face was filled with dread.

He immediately sent a message to Kun Hai.

“Senior, help me!” At this point, Wei Wuya no longer dared to underestimate Emperor Tang.

The might of the Great Tang Emperor far exceeded Wei Wuya’s imagination.
