Chapter 977 971: The Patriarch's Wrath
"Rebellious disciple, come out!"
The Grand Imperial Dynasty, located to the west of the Eastern Victory Divine Continent, occupies one-quarter of the state's territory, with countless subjects under its rule, flourishing immensely.
Especially the Grand Imperial Capital, built to be exceptionally exquisite, with city walls towering for thousands of miles, it dominated over everything, resembling a supreme giant standing tall, exuding an overwhelming aura.
Within the city, there were pavilions and towers, artificial mountains and celestial lakes, Lingxiao towers, and more, all set in perfect harmony.
Suddenly, an angry voice descended from high above, shattering a large expanse of the void, causing the mountains to burst and the earth to shake violently.
Countless subjects of the Grand Imperial Dynasty looked up at the sky in astonishment.
Who is it?
Who dares to be so audacious!
"Seeking death, defend!"
A black-armored general pierced through the air, standing atop the clouds, holding a scimitar, his entire being radiating unrivaled divine light, his eyes crimson, shouting angrily.
He was originally just an ordinary human, later noticed by the Grand Emperor and taught a cultivation technique, bestowed with resources, leading to his current level of cultivation.
Later, he gained the trust of the Grand Emperor, who appointed him as the guard general of the imperial capital, responsible for the safety of the entire capital city.
On the first day of his appointment, he swore to Juxu Mountain to be loyal and dutiful, not allowing any strong enemy to run amok within the capital's domain.
Juxu Mountain!
The sacred ground of the Grand Imperial Dynasty and the largest palace of the Grand Emperor, where he stayed year-round, cultivating in seclusion.
"It's General Lan Yan!"
"Ten thousand years ago, General Lan Yan broke through to the realm of Immortal Emperor; he will surely slay the foreign enemies!"
"Coming to seek trouble at the Grand Emperor's place, they shall rest eternally here!"
Countless citizens of the Grand Imperial Capital discussed, their gazes inadvertently turning to a distant tall tower where dozens of dried corpses hung; they were formidable figures in life.
"Ten Thousand Blade Slash!"
The power of an Immortal Emperor swept across the sky as Lan Yan swiftly brandished the scimitar, bloody light surging, resembling a heavenly blade cutting through the sky, imbued with ancient power, slashing towards a part of the void.
The slash was incredibly sharp, splitting even the heavens of the original world like paper.
Even time, space, causality, and reincarnation were easily cut apart by this blade.
"Ancient power?"
The figure of the Ancestor appeared, squinting slightly at the oncoming saber.
Within the blade, he sensed a familiar yet strange aura, very ancient and connected to his bloodline, causing a stirring within his veins.
By now, he could almost confirm that Cangjie's cave dwelling had been unearthed by the Grand Emperor.
Only by cultivating the lost humanistic cultivation technique could one wield such power.
At this thought, his heart twitched.
"Hmph!"
The Ancestor snorted coldly, as a thread of icy blood light burst from his eyes.
Boom!
Just like a decayed blunt weapon from the mortal realm, the battle saber in Lan Yan's hand tore apart upon colliding with the blood light; then the blood light flickered, its power undiminished, striking towards Guard General Lan Yan.
"Not good!"
Lan Yan's face changed dramatically, and before he could react, he was struck by the bloody gaze, hitting his abdomen precisely.
In an instant, his dantian was destroyed, his cultivation demoted, becoming a cripple, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, his body flew horizontally, crashing into the city wall, making a dent.
A large puddle of glaring blood stained the city wall, staining the sky.
Instantly, the previously boisterous citizens of the Grand Imperial Capital fell into silence.
A single glare killed the guard general; it was truly terrifying.
Even the restless civil and military officials remained silent, not daring to act rashly.
Lan Yan's cultivation reached the early stage of the Immortal Emperor realm, ranking him among the top five of the Grand Imperial Dynasty, meaning only four others were qualified to face the challenge.
But would they dare?
When the Ancestor and Lan Yan clashed, they recognized the Ancestor's identity, the supreme power of the Immortal Venerable, the greatest in the myriad worlds.
It's because Lan Yan was too impatient, attacking before the Ancestor even revealed himself.
Otherwise, he would not have met such a tragic end.
"Master, you're here!"
Mere moments later, a dignified voice rang out as the void split open, and a figure in imperial robes walked out, radiating golden light and a vast aura, repressing the celestial domain of a hundred thousand miles.
As he appeared, the fortune gold dragon above the Grand Imperial Capital soared into the sky, coiling in the firmament, emitting dragon roars echoing through eternity.
Boundless golden radiance howled, shrouding the heavens, covering the boundless expanse of the Grand Imperial Dynasty.
An extreme power of imperial laws spanned the sky, intimidating the world.
The visitor was the Grand Emperor!
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
The ministers, soldiers, citizens, and more of the Grand Imperial Dynasty, eyes filled with fervor, all bowed respectfully.
"Have you broken through to Immortal Venerable?"
The Ancestor's face darkened slightly, asking coldly.
"Thanks to the ancestors!"
The Grand Emperor did not deny it, his handsome face revealing a slight smile.
His words confirmed two points.
First, he had broken through to Immortal Venerable!
Second, he had opened Cangjie's cave dwelling!
"Beast!"
The Ancestor's eyes widened, his white hair flying, infinite killing intent bursting forth.
Boom!
The void behind him exploded out of nowhere, revealing a battle sword, radiating golden light, exuding a cunning aura, the aura of humanity shaken the nine heavens, cleaving through all worlds.
The Ancestor reached out, grasping the 'Ren Sword', unleashing unparalleled sharpness, shattering the world, expelling all doctrines, all laws.
"Master, I am mankind's future!"
"You're old now!"
The Grand Emperor's face remained calm as he took a step forward, the heavens and earth caving in overhead, revealing an ancient pen, plain and ordinary, emitting faint golden light, appearing quite unremarkable.
"Suppress!"
The Grand Emperor shouted.
In an instant, the ancient pen burst forth with brilliance, writing the word 'Suppress', transforming mountains, enraged seas, sun, moon, stars, the cosmos and myriad laws, pressing towards the Ancestor.
Boom!
The heavens and earth trembled as all the sword qi was suppressed.
"Cangjie Patriarch's writing pen!"
The Ancestor's pupils contracted, recognizing the ancient pen's origin, his expression somewhat grave.
This ancient pen, named 'Qiwenti'!
During the Showing Holy Era, Cangjie used this pen to create characters, writing the Dao, where the pen fell was creation itself.
After creating humanity, it received a portion of merit, allowing the pen to undergo transformation, becoming an immortal treasure of great merit, possessing heaven-defying power.
"I alone am the destined one!"
"I alone am the Purple Star Emperor!"
"I alone am mankind's future!"
The Grand Emperor held the 'Qiwenti', supremely sacred, as though embodying destiny.
"Mankind's future?"
"Ridiculous!"
The Ancestor laughed angrily, not expecting the Grand Emperor to be so shameless, claiming to be mankind's future after betraying them, it was an enormous joke.
"By the tribal decree, the Grand Emperor has betrayed mankind. As the common master of mankind, I shall strip the Grand Emperor of his human identity and revoke the Grand Imperial Dynasty's qualification as a human nation!"
Taking a deep breath, the Ancestor's face was cold, giving the order in anger.
The majestic voice, like thunder rolling, echoed through the great world, reaching the ears of countless beings.
Stripping the Grand Emperor of his human identity!
Revoking the Grand Imperial Dynasty's qualification as a human nation!
This was equivalent to expelling both the Grand Emperor and the Grand Imperial Dynasty.
