Eternal Holy Emperor

Chapter 1130 - 1033: The Three Immortals Challenge the Heavenly King

Upon learning that this person had failed, Ye Chen sat on the Divine Throne for a long time without speaking.

Because Cang Jitian had a certain relationship with Ye Chen, he was also the first Immortal True King to be defeated by Ye Chen face-to-face. Known for cultivating the Five Elements Dao, it was rumored that he was a figure from the Mythical Era, but unexpectedly, this person actually failed and fell.

It also highlighted the cruelty of the Dao. Even for the Immortal True Kings, as stunning as they are, success isn’t guaranteed, and failure is always a possibility.

Of course, it was also related to the ambush he faced during his tribulation. It is said that an ominous figure made a move with thunderous might when he was about to succeed, causing Cang Jitian to fall into a deep abyss.

Even though Cang Jitian was the heir of a great power and possessed heavy treasures, they were useless because this was his Great Tribulation, a part that must be forsaken. Not even forbidden Secret Treasures could be used; doing so could potentially invite a more dreadful Great Tribulation, destroying everything.

Who was it that secretly intervened during Cang Jitian’s tribulation, while several other Immortal True Kings also nearly faced calamity?

Ye Chen was in the Central Heavenly Palace conducting deductions when he encountered a fog shrouding his vision, obscured by a terrifying figure, so powerful that even Ye Chen found it challenging to deduce.

Naturally, all of this is related to his Dao being sealed and confined, preventing him from wielding much of the Great Dao’s Power.

Ye Chen frowned because the Three Immortals had already reached a critical point and were about to face their tribulation; he worried that similar figures would appear and disrupt their crossing.

If any of them encountered danger, Ye Chen would go mad, determined to do anything necessary.

That day, Ye Chen left the Central Heavenly Palace, heading to the place where Cang Jitian faced his tribulation. It was a starry void, nearly a million miles in diameter, filled with nihility, where stars burst apart, leaving fragments scattered everywhere, with only pieces of charred flesh and bone visible.

He silently collected them, burying them as an act of friendship.

A month later, Ye Chen awoke from the Divine Throne, his eyes opening and closing, overflowing with an infinite sense of oppression, causing even the Emperor Dynasty Heavenly King to shiver in fear.

He found the Three Immortals and said, "In the upcoming period, other Immortal True Kings will choose to break through, achieving Supreme Method Great Perfection, becoming Heavenly Kings. I think you should also make your breakthroughs."

This did not include Peacock King, who had failed his reincarnation. His Dao was lacking, requiring him to return to the Heavenly Gate and find Wang Chen Heavenly King to discover a solution; otherwise, not even Ye Chen could offer help at the moment.

Previously, Ye Chen had stated that even those who failed reincarnation could receive an opportunity, which led to the three hundred-year deadline.

The Goddess sighed softly, saying, "Indeed, we must also break through; otherwise, in the impending cosmic change, not reaching the Heavenly King Realm will be very difficult."

Both Ye Chen and the Goddess understood increasingly the terrifying unfolding of the future Heavenly Earth Chess, which could herald the appearance of Ancient Great Powers and even more dreadful living beings, necessitating advance preparations.

Yii Wu said, "Our breakthrough cannot be delayed; it is best within three years."

The Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Heavenly Kings were slightly taken aback, "So soon!?"

Yii Wu nodded slightly, a serious disposition on her stunningly beautiful face, saying, "The cosmic change is filled with endless danger, perhaps even opening the Divine Realm, causing those who have slumbered throughout antiquity to emerge, making our breakthrough a necessity."

Ye Chen said, "Do not rush; accumulate more time, as having a sufficient foundation is ultimately better. I have accumulated enough but must wait, yet I have a feeling I will face my tribulation before the cosmic change arrives."

Everyone was astonished; Ye Chen intended to break through to the Heavenly King Realm!?

Especially the Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Heavenly Kings, the Saintly Treasure Ten Realms Perfection of Ye Chen already made him dominate the Ancient Emperor Continent without rival, hailed as the strongest on the Super Ancient Emperor Continent, capable of suppressing Reincarnation-level Supreme Powerhouses with ease, unmatched across the heavens.

If he truly broke through to the Heavenly King Realm, one could only imagine how powerful he would become; likely even Heavenly Kings would tremble before him.

Three years later.

Endlessness and nihility, darkness and coldness are the eternal themes of the starry void, unchanged through the ages!

The heavenly stars shine, adorning the originally dark and empty starry void, becoming pearls in the vast Star Domain.

In the depths of the starry void, on a desolate star, within a million-mile radius is all nihility, a rare nihility zone perfect for undergoing tribulation.

Ye Chen, the Three Immortals, the Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Heavenly Kings, the Peacock King, Xia Miao’er, and others appeared there.

On this day, the Three Immortals were to undergo tribulation in this barren location.

Merging the Dao Fruits of two lifetimes, achieving the Ten-layered Heaven Mythical Domain, transcending reincarnation, the Heavenly King Tribulation’s might is vast and fearsome.

If undertaken on the Ancient Emperor Continent, it would inevitably draw the most dreadful Heavenly Punishment Great Tribulation, capable of instantaneously devastating areas spanning tens or hundreds of thousands of miles, causing terrifying destruction.

Because they were True King-level Heavenly Prides, now advancing to a domain akin to Ye Chen’s Tenth Layer Heaven Perfection, the Great Tribulation they attracted would be even more terrifying, potentially causing mass suffering among countless living beings. They dared not proceed thusly.

Therefore, they chose to undergo the tribulation in the lifeless Endless Starry Sky, where no matter how dreadful the Heavenly Tribulation might be, it was inconsequential.

The Three Immortals stepped out of the star and into the Endless Starry Sky, keeping at least a million miles apart, similarly worried about the Great Tribulations merging, as had occurred in past instances.

Once Great Tribulations merge, it is not as simple as one plus one.

The Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Heavenly Kings, now the Saintly Domain’s Nine Divine Kings, rushed to more distant positions, guarding nine locations to prevent sudden attackers from disrupting the Three Immortals’ tribulation.

Ye Chen also sat crossed-legged in the starry void, on guard like a Supreme Overlord ready to awaken, prepared to unleash a world-ending strike should any threat appear!

On his being, formidable Dao Power surged forth, causing the heavenly stars to tremble, unbelievably strong, intimidating even Heavenly Kings; it was intended to deter would-be attackers hiding in the shadows.

"Alright, we’re about to break through and undergo tribulation; you two, be cautious,"

The Goddess’s voice came, receiving the responses from Yii Wu and Chen’er, as all of them sat crossed-legged in the starry void, restoring their spiritual energy, aiming for the absolute peak.

This continued for a full half-day, all opening their eyes, nodding simultaneously, as their auras suddenly erupted, more so accompanied by a Divine Light soaring upwards, cascading, permeating the deepest starry void, releasing a vast disturbance and substantial influence.

BOOM——

Almost simultaneously, in the once empty, silent infinite starry sky, a most fearsome thunder exploded across thirty-three heavens.

Nearly in that instant, above the starry void, brilliance shone enormously, as overhead the Three Immortals appeared immeasurable and boundless Great Tribulation, likewise fearsome Tribulation Light and Thunder Sea, poured directly down to engulf the Three Immortals, annihilating all.

This Star Domain was completely illuminated, its gleaming magnificence captivating.
