“This is truly defying the heavens.”
In the distant horizon, the Female Emperor looked up, her peerless beauty marred by astonishment. This was a sign of advancing to the Tenth Heaven Ascension Realm. Yet, judging from the current situation, it seemed excessively domineering. The intensity of the chaotic spiritual energy was far more violent than when she had ascended, to an overwhelming degree.
At this very moment, powerful experts across the Ancient Holy World had sensed the tremors. Each one gazed toward the distant horizon. In their eyes, the heavens and earth over there were in a state of violent upheaval, with surging spiritual energy reaching an unprecedented peak.
“Who exactly is ascending?”
This was the question on the minds of most cultivators. For some, this was an extraordinary event, proof that the Great Thousand Races would soon gain another supreme expert.
The Supreme Huang, who had just fled the scene, felt the power and his expression abruptly changed. He immediately departed to discuss the matter with other Supremes.
Before long, the remaining five Supremes exchanged glances.
“That Human Emperor is ascending, likely about to step into Eternal Godhood,” one Supreme remarked.
“This absolutely cannot be tolerated. We must suppress him. Without the strength of an Eternal God, he has already driven us Supremes into such a dire plight. If he truly ascends, who knows what heights he might reach.”
“Who will go to stop him? Let me make this clear—I won’t go. I’ll just wait for the Great Opening of the Ten Thousand Realms and the arrival of Heavenly Will. No matter how powerful this Human Emperor is, before the Heavenly Will, he’s nothing but an ant,” another Supreme said, though inwardly he had already developed a deep reverence for the Human Emperor.
“This Supreme has already sensed that You has perished, crushed by that Human Emperor. This is an unbearable blow for the Ancient Race.”
Huang glared at the gathered Supremes, seeing their reluctance, his face darkened with anger. “Are you even Ancient Race Supremes anymore? The Human Emperor is in the crucial moment of his ascension. Isn’t he accompanied by Gengu, Jie, and the Demon Emperor? If the five of us act together, can’t we suppress him?”
“What? Gengu?”
“What? The Demon Emperor?”
“What? Jie?”
At that moment, the other four Supremes exchanged glances. They had almost been persuaded, but now, hearing this, their hearts pounded violently.
What a ridiculous joke.
What shocked them even more was the possibility that Gengu was still alive. He had been their peer among the Supremes, and his strength was unquestionably among the strongest.
“If you won’t go, then I will. For the sake of the Ancient Race, even if I perish, it doesn’t matter. We absolutely cannot allow this Human Emperor to ascend,” Huang declared passionately.
The other four Supremes looked at Huang, helplessly shrugging their shoulders. Their eyes, filled with menace, clearly conveyed their message: “Then you go ahead.”
Huang looked at the four Supremes, his face turning red with fury, unsure what had become of these Supremes.
Could a mere Human Emperor truly inspire such reverence among them? Where was the dignity of the Supremes now?
“Huang, stop this nonsense. The Heavenly Will is asleep. We expended too much strength fighting that Human Emperor last time. We don’t even know if He can hear us now. Even if we succeed in opposing the Human Emperor now, at least three of us might perish.”
“Will it be your death, my death, or their deaths?” another Supreme interjected.
The other Supremes exchanged glances but said nothing.
“Our main task now is to fully suppress the Water-Fire Emperor. We must absolutely prevent his escape. As for the Human Emperor, no matter how powerful he is, he cannot break through the Eternal Barrier. Once the Heavenly Will awakens, everything will fade away.”
“That’s right. We Supremes can’t afford any more losses. That Human Emperor has already become formidable, with two Supremes by his side. Perhaps even the Demon Emperor has recovered. Even if we go, it would be of no use.”
“If those beings from the Guardian Realms emerge again, we’ll be at a disadvantage and might all be slaughtered.”
In an instant, Supreme Huang let out a deep sigh, feeling convinced by their arguments.
If they’re going to be cowards, what more could be said?
At this moment, Lin Fan looked up into the void. Violent torrents of spiritual energy surged throughout the heavens and earth, enveloping Lin Fan in a storm of chaotic energy.
In an instant, every pore in Lin Fan’s body opened wide. With a powerful inhalation, he absorbed all the violent spiritual energy into his body.
Inexplicably, Lin Fan felt as if he could connect to some mysterious place.
“That’s the Eternal Throne.”
Even among the Tenth Heaven Ascension Realm’s Eternal Godhood, there were distinctions in rank.
Only a handful of cultivators who could rival the Supremes had ever reached such a level.
The Guardians of the Four Sacred Realms had all attained the Eternal Throne, the highest level of Eternal Godhood. Other beings, even if they reached the Tenth Heaven Ascension Realm, were no match for the Supremes.
As for the Water-Fire Emperor, he was an exception.
Though he had not attained the Eternal Throne, his strength surpassed that of any Supreme. No one knew which race he belonged to, but he was abnormally powerful, beyond comprehension.
Boom!
At that moment, the mighty ascending force tore through space. From the infinite void, a throne radiating supreme divine might emerged.
This Eternal Throne shook the heavens and earth. At the moment of its appearance, all things in the universe seemed to bow in submission before it.
“Damn, looks like it really is the Eternal Throne. But how the hell did that Water-Fire Emperor woman become so powerful without attaining the Eternal Throne?”
Curiosity stirred in Lin Fan’s heart, yet he had no clue.
Lin Fan checked his status panel.
The “Cultivation Level” section was still marked as undetermined.
“Cultivation Level: Ascending to the Tenth Heaven Eternal Godhood (In Progress).”
It was a mystery he couldn’t solve. However, with his system, his strength might be limitless. Even by following the conventional path and attaining the Eternal Throne, could it possibly restrict his future progress?
Lin Fan extended a claw and reached toward the Eternal Throne.
“Come here, today I’ll just take the conventional path.”
Lin Fan stopped overthinking. Since things had come to this, he might as well ascend casually.
But suddenly, something shocking happened.
The golden Eternal Throne in the void seemed to resist him, flying deeper into the void, trying to escape him.
The Eternal Throne appeared to be pulled by some mysterious force, preventing him from attaining true Eternal Godhood.
“What? Are you seriously looking down on little me?”
At this moment, Lin Fan was furious. His power erupted violently as he directly reached for the Eternal Throne. The more it resisted, the more determined he became to obtain it.
Crack!
The void exploded. Two forces collided and tore through the void.
“Damn it, this is going too far.”
Lin Fan was completely enraged. With a sweeping palm strike, he slashed through the heavens and earth. No matter what, he would bring down the Eternal Throne.
Infinite power blocked Lin Fan’s assault completely. Mysterious threads wrapped around the Eternal Throne, pulling it away forcefully.
So this was the reason why beings of the Great Thousand Races couldn’t attain Eternal Godhood.
During ascension, the Eternal Throne had already appeared, yet it was pulled away by an invisible force, preventing them from attaining it. What could they do?
“Damn it, I’m at a crucial moment. If you won’t let me ascend, then I’ll fight you to the end.”
“Gengu, Jie, Demon God, lend me your strength. Help me forcefully pull down this Eternal Throne,” Lin Fan roared furiously, an act unprecedented in history.
The mysterious presence in the void seemed equally shocked, never expecting that this being attempting to ascend to Eternal Godhood would be so troublesome.
