Chapter 1533: The Divine Emperor’s Calamity
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Chaotic Energy was very important, at least to Lord Dog. This was his only purpose in entering the ancient HeavenG.o.d’s relic. Now, it had been completely devoured by him…
Lord Dog turned into a fat dog with the HeavenG.o.d bone on his back, and his eyes were gleaming brightly. He walked with his elegant cat-like steps, and in a few moments, he landed before the coc.o.o.n that had wrapped Bu Fang inside. Looking at the golden coc.o.o.n, he noticed that transformation seemed to be constantly taking place inside.
He yawned. The Chaotic Energy did not taste good—it was far worse than Bu Fang’s Sweet ‘n’ Sour Ribs. However, after eating it, he was undergoing subtle changes. Since he was too lazy to leave the relic, he decided to just lie in front of Bu Fang’s coc.o.o.n.
The man and the dog were both undergoing transformations, which, perhaps, was very unusual.
…
A rumbling sound rang out as a hole was blown in the sky over the Xiayi Divine Dynasty’s capital. With a thud, a figure flew through it and smashed onto the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust and smoke. His eyes were closed, and barbaric glyphs could be seen swirling all over his skin as if to restrict his fleshly body.
The figure was none other than the t.i.tan Divine Emperor, who was flung here by Tai Shan from the starry sky. The whole mountain beneath him had been leveled.
As a G.o.d Emperor, the t.i.tan Divine Emperor possessed a mighty cultivation base, and his body had even reached the HeavenG.o.d level. If it wasn’t for the fact that those evil creatures used their strongest means to destroy his divine sense and seriously injure his spirit sea, they would not have been able to reduce him into such a miserable state.
Although a G.o.d Emperor was strong, those evil creatures had slaughtered too many great worlds that their fighting prowess and cultivation base had reached the level of G.o.d Emperors. Perhaps they were slightly weaker, but when so many evil creatures joined forces, they could still suppress the t.i.tan Divine Emperor.
Terrible barbaric glyphs wheeled around him, each seemed to weigh ten thousand catties. The void twisted as if it was about to be crushed by these glyphs. A G.o.d Emperor, even when severely wounded, was still extremely terrifying. What happened to him was so much like the Xiayi Divine Emperor back then…
The t.i.tan Divine Emperor’s eyes s.h.i.+vered and slowly opened. They were filled with rage and grief. Although he had fallen into a deep sleep, he knew very well everything Tai Shan had done for him. The many elites of his t.i.tan Divine Dynasty, including his best friend, Tai Shan, were all killed by those evil creatures…
‘Everything that old man Xia Yuhe said is actually true! These creatures can devour experts to improve their strength and mimic human divine abilities… They are demons! We can’t let these demons spread further!’
The t.i.tan Divine Emperor could clearly sense that those creatures did not seem to be the creatures of this world, as he never saw them before!
He breathed out a puff of turbid air while the energy in him was boiling. Suddenly, his pupils constricted, and he jerked his head and glanced at the void behind him. There, the void was suddenly torn apart, then a wisp of black smoke sped out of it, shooting toward him like a fine thread.
“What the heck!” The t.i.tan Divine Emperor flew into a rage. Although he was severely injured now, his imposing manner still existed, so no ordinary creature would dare to approach him! The wisp of black smoke was flying very fast, and it exuded a familiar aura that made his pupils constrict.
“It actually chased me all the way here!” The Divine Emperor’s eyes were filled with monstrous rage. “These evil creatures… Why do they keep chasing me?! Dammit!” He was extremely furious. A rumbling sound filled the air as he raised a hand and immediately trapped the wisp of black smoke, which struggled fiercely in his palm…
Soul Thirteen was filled with resentment. He wanted to seize and occupy the Cursed G.o.ddess’s body, but in the end, he was brutally defeated by her. ‘d.a.m.n the Cursed G.o.ddess! One day I will devour her completely!’
He had fled the ancient HeavenG.o.d’s relic, but little did he know that he would run into a seriously wounded G.o.d Emperor here. The man’s aura deeply attracted him. However, although the G.o.d Emperor was injured, he was still very fearsome and had trapped him. Soul Thirteen struggled, and slowly, his appearance changed…
The t.i.tan Divine Emperor focused his eyes as he looked at the changing black smoke. In a few moments, the black smoke had materialized into a human face. That was… Tai Fei’s face!
“What? Tai Fei?!” The Divine Emperor froze. As he stared at his son’s face, his mind trembled momentarily.
At this moment, Soul Thirteen moved! With a rumble, he slammed through the Divine Emperor’s confinement and sped toward his brow.
Boom!
The black smoke exploded, turned into a beam of black light, and seeped into the t.i.tan Divine Emperor’s body. The Divine Emperor’s face struggled and twisted. His divine sense had already suffered a heavy blow, and now an evil creature actually burrowed into his spirit sea… This was bad!
…
A ripping sound could be heard as the void in the Xiayi Divine Dynasty was torn. Right after that, one evil creature after another floated out of it, turning into young men and girls…
“Oh? It’s that t.i.tan Divine Emperor…” Soul One said, his eyes lighting up with greed. He was only half a step now from making a breakthrough to the Soul Overlord realm. As long as he could merge with this G.o.d Emperor’s body, he would be able to achieve that. At that time, he would be able to hold sway over this world, and this entire Chaotic Universe would become his playground!
Soul One roared, then turned into a plume of black some and flew madly toward the t.i.tan Divine Emperor, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his head bowed.
Suddenly, the Divine Emperor looked up, and black smoke could be seen spreading in his eyes. The next moment, a cold smile came over his face. “Soul One…” A hoa.r.s.e voice rang out of the t.i.tan Divine Emperor’s mouth as he raised his hand and turned it into a claw covered with insect scales.
With a buzzing sound, Soul One, who had transformed into a plume of black smoke, was caught instantly. His face twisted as he kept struggling. “You… You…”
“You didn’t expect that I, Soul Thirteen, will be one step ahead of you, did you?” The t.i.tan Divine Emperor grinned hideously. The next moment, he opened his mouth so wide that it looked extremely terrifying, then closed it around the struggling Soul One and swallowed.
In the distance, Soul Two, Soul Three, and several other Numbered Soul Demons were terrified. “Soul Thirteen? I can’t believe he actually swallowed Soul One… Now that he has occupied the t.i.tan Divine Emperor’s body, does it mean that… Soul Thirteen is about to become a Soul Overlord?!”
Rumble!
Sure enough, in the next moment, a terrifying aura began to spread out of Soul Thirteen’s body!
“This… He’s really going to evolve into a Soul Overlord!”
All the Soul Demons were shocked, and then a look of respect came over their faces. Once a Soul Overlord was born, Numbered Soul Demons like them had to become Soul Thirteen’s subordinates.
“You will guard the area while I cultivate. The day I become a Soul Overlord will be when we Soul Demons slaughter this Chaotic Universe!” Soul Thirteen said grimly as his lips turned completely black.
“Also… The calamity of the aging Xiayi Divine Emperor has descended… Soul Two, Soul Three, the two of you will go to occupy his body. Our army of Soul Demons will definitely have one more Soul Overlord!”
A beautiful girl and a cold young man cupped their fists at Soul Thirteen, turned into streams of light, and shot toward the Xiayi Divine Dynasty’s capital. Meanwhile, the remaining Soul Demons all turned into black smoke and swirled around the t.i.tan Divine Emperor. The void was twisting as a great terror was brewing inside…
…
In the Xiayi Divine Dynasty’s palace…
The main door of the great hall opened with a creak, and the Xiayi Divine Emperor walked out of it. He was clad in a simple, neat, and spotless robe and a crown. His eyes gleamed brilliantly, and his face was beaming with energy. At this moment, his old face seemed to have become younger.
Gold Armor and Black Armor were standing outside the door. When they saw the Divine Emperor, they quickly cupped their fists and bowed respectfully. “Your Majesty!” they cried out at the same time. They looked very excited, and their bodies seemed to be trembling slightly.
“Good… Black Armor, Gold Armor, you have been guarding me for ten thousand years, so today, I’ll give you a holiday. If I can safely transcend the calamity, I will make you Kings.” The Divine Emperor smiled.
“Your Majesty… We don’t want to be Kings! We just want Your Majesty to come back safe and sound!” Gold Armor said, cupping his fist and dropping to his knees.
Black Armor’s cheeks trembled as he followed Gold Armor and knelt on the ground.
The Divine Emperor smiled faintly. He had watched Gold Armor and Black Armor grow up from little boys to commanders of the imperial guards, and he had treated them as if they were his sons.
He raised his head, and his eyes seemed to look through everything. He saw the crowd waiting outside the great hall—Summer, King Pingyang, the courtiers, and the heads of the various aristocratic families were all waiting anxiously. His face grew serious.
He had been expecting the calamity, but when it really came, he found that he was still unprepared. He sighed, put his hands behind his back, and unleashed his aura. At this moment, he no longer repressed his aura. The mighty aura of a G.o.d Emperor immediately spread and shocked the whole world!
At the same time, a great terror came rumbling over from the depths of the starry sky. Wearing a serious face and a neat robe, the Divine Emperor walked step by step up toward the starry sky.
‘Calamity! Let me have a good look at how horrible the so-called HeavenG.o.d calamity really is!’ The Divine Emperor’s eyes shone with divine light. At this moment, his aging body slowly became younger, turning from an old man into a handsome young man, who looked exactly like the striking Xiayi Divine Emperor in those years.
Suddenly, the day turned into night. All the people jerked their heads up and saw a terrible whirlpool appear in the sky, which kept spinning like a bottomless black hole. The Divine Emperor floated in the sky, standing in front of the black hole. His body swayed like a tiny boat in a stormy sea, and it seemed that he would be sucked into the black hole at any moment.
Gold Armor, Black Armor, and the others all knelt on the ground while looking at the Divine Emperor, who, in their minds, was a towering and invincible figure. As Summer looked on with complicated eyes, the courtiers and all the people in the entire capital dropped to their knees and bowed their heads as well.
In midair, two plumes of black smoke spread out and turned into Soul Two and Soul Three. “He’s so strong…”
“Compared to the t.i.tan Divine Emperor, this Xiayi Divine Emperor almost had one of his legs stepped into the HeavenG.o.d realm! He’s so terrifying!”
“Of the three G.o.d Emperors in this Chaotic Universe, this old thing should be the strongest one!”
They looked at each other in horror. They dared not to get too close to that HeavenG.o.d calamity. “Let’s just wait… When that old thing failed, we will rush up and seize his essence!” Soul Two and Soul Three had decided.
…
With a deep look in his eyes, Xia Yuhe stared at the huge black hole and took a deep breath. The next moment, the calamity exploded out! He felt an explosion deep inside his body as if something terrible was about to break out of him. The so-called calamity was extremely terrible!
Suddenly, one bone spike after another thrust out from inside his body. In just a flash, they made him unrecognizable. The calamity was finally… beginning to explode out!
…
In the ancient HeavenG.o.d’s relic…
A crackling sound could be heard as the golden coc.o.o.n sitting quietly trembled ever so slightly. Lord Dog, lying beside it, opened his eyes, yawned, and stared at it. Suddenly, a crack appeared at the top of the coc.o.o.n. The next moment, the crack spread…
With a ripping sound, the crack split into a hole. Then, a palm glinting like jade stretched out of the coc.o.o.n, causing Lord Dog’s eyes to go wide…
