Emperor’s Domination

Li Qiye placed the karmic semi-circle on the woman.

“Buzz.” She became resplendent and rays also emanated from her - memories, fortunes, grand dao…

They came together to form a semi-circle of karma. It was attracted by Li Qiye’s half and gradually floated away from her body. Her appearance changed into that of an above-average-looking woman.

“Click!” The two halves came together to form a full circle of karma. However, it didn’t have a bearer and not just anyone could bear it.

“Boom!” It floated upward since it was lost, only to be attacked by the heavenly tribulation.

“Crack!” Cracks appeared and more lightning bolts jumped out to attack Li Qiye.

“Villainous heaven, can’t just let this go I see.” Li Qiye smiled and arched his chest forward.

“Boom!” The monstrous bolts smashed his flesh and drew blood.

“Now it’s over.” Nevertheless, he endured it and wiped the blood off his lips with a smile.

The tribulation disappeared as the karmic sphere of the two lovers shattered into particles, returning to the world.

“Forever strangers after this departure.” Li Qiye then looked down at the two mortals and said.

If they were fortunate to meet for a second time, they would not be together again.

“This is still karma, just a different type.” Li Qiye said while sending the man into another dimension.

“Go.” He did the same for the woman.

He sighed as the two disappeared into the river of time, gazing into the distance.

“We’ll see what will happen in the future since success comes after perseverance. If your love for each other is truly unshakable and indestructible, your dao heart will be able to break the karmic shackles. Both sides have to feel the same way.” Li Qiye said.

Two indomitable dao hearts were their last sliver of hope. If their love truly never wavered, they would be able to break the karmic shackles and meet again in time.

Meanwhile, Unrivalled Monarch’s murderous intent rampaged and suppressed everyone.

“Rumble!” As she swung her spear, numerous members from Immortal Suppression and Phantom met their demise.

The spear’s chilling aura froze them first and then the remnant shockwaves blasted them to pieces.

Omni and Allmountain together couldn’t stop the wrathful monarch; their barriers being broken one by one.

“Start anew!” Allmountain summoned a great shield while his flesh seemingly turned into a shining diamond. This new exterior looked invulnerable.

“Omni Anima!” Omni had no choice but to release all of his power. Everything around him gathered into the shape of a sword for a resplendent slash.

He had no other choice, being pushed to the edge with countless injuries. Without Allmountain’s involvement, the spear would have ended him long ago.

“Slaughter.” Unrivalled Monarch declared and her chilling intent froze a one hundred thousand miles radius.

“Clank!” Everyone became blinded by the glint of the spear and felt a sharp pain in their neck.

Allmountain and Omni gasped upon seeing this next move. Omni’s sword broke as he parried.

“Bam!” The spear crushed all barriers and pierced Allmountain’s imperial shield, testing his diamond physique.

Sparks splattered upon contact, looking like beautiful fireworks. The impact sent the emperor flying through mountains.

Omni wasn’t as lucky, being pierced by the spear despite his true dragon armor. Of course, this wasn’t enough to kill an emperor.

His anima tree and fruits healed him but Unrivalled Monarch didn’t give him the chance. She focused her power on the spear tip and summoned more spears to assault his tree.

“Ahh!” Death was truly coming as he wailed in agony, being pinned to the ground as the spear gradually disintegrated him.
