Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

”The Great Formation is broken! We’re doomed!”

”Who can save us? Saint You Heng, please come rescue us!”

”Oh heavens, is this the end of the world?”

Once the City Protection Formation was breached, the Heart Spirits of countless people shattered. Their faces turned ashen as despair bloomed in their hearts. Even Master Gong Ming had been defeated. Who else could possibly stop the advance of the Floral Whale Demon Saint? The Mad Lion Saint’s boastful threat to slaughter the city still echoed in their ears, and in the blink of an eye, it seemed about to become reality. The fear of death shrouded every person’s heart, making them tremble and cling tightly to their loved ones.

”This is bad!” Saint You Heng sensed the breach of the City Protection Formation instantly. His expression changed abruptly as he grasped the Nether Serpent Holy Chain, preparing to halt the Floral Whale Demon Saint.

”You Heng, you can’t save them! Just stand here and watch as Su Han dies and Cang City is destroyed!” The Mad Lion Saint blocked Saint You Heng. Clutching his Leonine Holy Blade, he refused to let Saint You Heng advance even half a step. With the City Protection Formation shattered, they could see the dawn of victory. How could they possibly allow Saint You Heng to interfere now?

Saint You Heng’s expression turned grim. No longer wasting words on the Mad Lion Saint, he attacked immediately, attempting to carve a bloody path forward. But the Mad Lion Saint’s strength was formidable. He moved swiftly, unleashing a variety of powerful Martial Techniques to block Saint You Heng completely. Their battle escalated into a white-hot climax, a fierce clash that seemed to turn heaven and earth upside down, fracturing space and twisting time. It was a terrifying sight, like the coming of the apocalypse.

However, their fight had little impact on Cang City itself. What truly drove the city’s inhabitants to despair was the massive body of the Floral Whale Demon Saint. The demon saint was a demonic beast from the Jing Tribe of the East Sea, and its enormous size was a source of crushing pressure and despair. Coupled with its Saint Realm power, it was the very embodiment of the Grim Reaper to the people of Cang City.

”Where is Su Han?” The Floral Whale Demon Saint’s huge eyes roved about, searching for Su Han within Cang City. But there were too many people, their Auras intermingled. For a moment, the demon saint couldn’t locate him in the chaos. But it didn’t matter. It could just slaughter everyone. Once the entire city was annihilated, Su Han would be forced to reveal himself.

”Earth Rank High Level Martial Technique: Boundless Ocean!” The Floral Whale Demon Saint struck again. Instantly, a phantom ocean appeared behind it, sending colossal waves surging forward, one after another, crashing down upon Cang City. Although the waves were illusory, the terrifying energy they contained was real. Wherever the waves fell, buildings collapsed and the ground was submerged. Countless citizens were trapped as if by a bursting dam as destruction swept over everything.

The people’s wails and cries merged into a cacophony. The crowd had quieted only moments before but was now thrown into turmoil once more, with many trying again to flee toward the city’s edge. At the same time, numerous Martial Artists were already confronting the three Supreme Realm powerhouses. None of them wanted to die here; they fought desperately for a path to survival. However, fearing Su Han might escape in the chaos, the Floral Whale Demon Saint struck again, sealing every exit. It swiftly struck down the few who managed to get outside the city walls. As a result, the people of Cang City were like fish in a barrel, left to wait for death in sheer panic.

”Su Han, I refuse to believe you won’t show yourself! You killed my Jing Tribe’s Imperial Son and insulted the dignity of our East Sea! The hatred in my heart cannot be quelled until you are dead!” The Floral Whale Demon Saint extended its Divine Sense, its eyes glaring fiercely into the city, searching for Su Han to deliver the killing blow.

Amid the ruins, Master Gong Ming lay on the ground, his robes tattered. Pale and panting, his injuries were severe. He struggled to his feet with great difficulty, shakily pulling himself from the rubble. What greeted him was the sight of a completely devastated Cang City and the sounds of a dirge of human suffering.

”Even if it costs me this old life, I will not let the Floral Whale Demon Saint succeed!”

Master Gong Ming’s eyes were bloodshot with shock and rage. This time, he wasn’t fighting for Saint You Heng or Su Han, but for the people of Cang City. He had lived here for over a decade and had grown to love the place. Seeing the Floral Whale Demon Saint committing a massacre, intending to slaughter everyone, was something he could not accept. Clutching his chest, he forced himself to rise and continue the fight.

However, at that moment, his expression shifted to one of shock as he looked around. What are these Formation Patterns? They aren’t from the City Protection Formation. It seems they were just set up.

As an Array Master, Gong Ming was extremely sensitive to Formation Patterns. He instantly sensed new ones that were not his own, which confused him. But soon, he discerned their origin and purpose. This is... the Myriad Thunder Attraction Holy Formation! Mr. Su is setting up a formation!

Master Gong Ming was astonished. He had thought Su Han had left long ago, never expecting him to have stayed behind to set up a Great Formation. But this is a Holy Formation. Without my help, how could Mr. Su possibly succeed in setting it up?

Though his heart was filled with doubt, his keen senses told him that numerous Formation Patterns already existed within Cang City, all linked together to form the Myriad Thunder Attraction Holy Formation. He quickly understood Su Han’s method. He actually connected the Formation Patterns to the City Protection Formation, using its power for the transformation. Brilliant, simply brilliant! As expected of Mr. Su, to think of such an ingenious method!

Master Gong Ming quickly guessed Su Han’s ultimate goal. Is Mr. Su planning to attract the Heavenly Tribulation to resolve this situation? If so, I cannot give up either. I must lend him a hand!

Gritting his teeth, he soared into the sky, holding the Myriad Laws Holy Banner and charging toward the Floral Whale Demon Saint. He was buying time for Su Han, and for the people of Cang City to survive.

”If you’re seeking death, then I will grant it!” Seeing Master Gong Ming reappear, the killing intent in the Floral Whale Demon Saint’s eyes intensified. Without the City Protection Formation, Master Gong Ming, who was merely at the Saint Realm First Layer, was no match for it at all.

The Sea Eye Holy Stone pulsed, sending out waves of force that shattered the Formation Patterns created by Master Gong Ming.

BANG!

In the clash of Domains, Master Gong Ming’s kilometer-wide Domain stood no chance and crumbled apart.

”Die!” A cold glint flashed in the Floral Whale Demon Saint’s eyes. It lifted its massive tail fin and whipped it violently toward Master Gong Ming.

The Floral Whale Demon Saint already possessed a formidable Physical Body. Given Master Gong Ming’s severe injuries, this strike would undoubtedly be fatal if it landed.

”Gong Ming!” Saint You Heng’s eyes nearly split with rage. He ripped open his clothes to reveal the tattoo of the Hell Nether Serpent, preparing for a desperate, all-out attack.

RUMBLE!

Just then, a deafening thunderclap exploded in the sky. Dark clouds gathered, creating a scene so oppressive it seemed they would crush the very city beneath them.

The Heavenly Tribulation arrived.
