Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree-Chapter 213: Suspected Great Emperor Powerhouse, Celestial Thunder Sacred Land’s Shock!

Chapter 213: Chapter 213: Suspected Great Emperor Powerhouse, Celestial Thunder Sacred Land’s Shock!

"Boom——"

As the Celestial Thunder Emperor wielded the Emperor’s Soldier, Gu Qingyang’s body shattered once more, dissipating like points of light into nothingness.

Just when everyone thought Gu Qingyang had truly fallen, they saw him stride through the air again, reactivating the dissipated Great Emperor’s Seal.

Once!

Twice!

...

Every time the Dharma Body perished, Gu Qingyang would condense it afresh; each condensation was an enormous drain on him.

Within the Divine Kingdom, the Faith Divine Power rapidly flowed away like water.

Yet, due to the surge in followers, Gu Qingyang had a vast reserve of Faith Divine Power, enough to go head-to-head with the Celestial Thunder Emperor.

After all, before him was not the real Celestial Thunder Emperor, just a remnant of power from the Celestial Thunder Emperor. No matter how profound the remnant, it too would be exhausted eventually.

Once the power of the Great Emperor’s Seal was depleted, the remaining Emperor’s Soldier, no matter how strong, posed little threat to Gu Qingyang.

He didn’t believe that the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land’s few True Monarchs at the sixth stage could wield the Emperor’s Soldier many times.

Considering the Emperor’s Soldier was of such high rank, each activation by a sixth-stage True Monarch was immensely draining; if he could endure, he would surely suppress the Celestial Thunder Halberd.

Regarding the ninth-grade Great Emperor’s Supreme Treasure, Gu Qingyang was equally covetous.

If he could forcibly suppress it and refine it, he was confident that anyone below the ninth-grade Great Emperor would be insignificant to him.

Thus.

The Celestial Thunder Halberd was something he was determined to acquire.

At the same time, the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land seemed to realize Gu Qingyang’s intention, and their expressions suddenly turned extremely grim.

"He’s aiming to exhaust the power of the Great Emperor’s Seal. What sort of technique does this man possess to be killed multiple times by the Emperor’s Soldier and still survive?"

An elder’s face was aghast, shocked as if witnessing a monster.

Dongfang Qi’s expression was somber: "I suspect this person is not truly present; it is merely a Divine Thought Incarnation..."

"Divine Thought Incarnation?"

"Impossible. Whose Divine Thought Incarnation could battle with a Great Emperor’s Seal wielding the Emperor’s Soldier? Only another Great Emperor-level powerhouse could achieve this!"

Upon hearing this, the other elders were visibly shocked, unable to believe Gu Qingyang was a Divine Thought Incarnation.

It was well-known.

The true strength of a powerhouse’s Divine Thought Incarnation is significantly weaker than the original body; just like the Great Emperor’s Seal left by the Celestial Thunder Emperor, it could only be equivalent to a commonplace Quasi-Emperor.

If Gu Qingyang could battle the Celestial Thunder Emperor’s Seal to such an extent, it indicated he must have reached the Quasi-Emperor level.

If a Divine Thought Transformation could rival a Quasi-Emperor, then his true strength must be at an even higher level.

A Great Emperor!

Only a Great Emperor powerhouse could achieve this.

But this was an impossibility.

If the Cyan Yang Divine Court had a living Great Emperor, the true body would certainly act; why only send a Divine Thought Incarnation?

Yet.

If what they faced was not a Divine Thought Incarnation, how could it be explained that the enemy survived multiple exterminations by the Celestial Thunder Emperor?

"Could it be... that the Cyan Yang Divine Court truly harbors a living Great Emperor!"

The elder’s voice trembled as he spoke.

A living Great Emperor!

That was an invincible existence capable of suppressing an era.

Any Great Emperor would indeed suppress one era, roaming the world unmatched.

It could be said.

Throughout history, Great Emperors who fell unexpectedly were rare; places like the Spiritual Forbidden Area, ancient and formidable, would be hard places to leave if a Great Emperor wished to depart.

Across generations, Great Emperor powerhouses either chose to rest in peace or ventured onto the Path to Immortality to meet their fate.

However, the Path to Immortality involved the rumored Immortal, naturally beyond comparison to other places.

In the Immortal Extinction Realm, any era’s Great Emperor was an unrivaled wielder, threatened only by the ancient Spiritual Forbidden Area and the enigmatic Path to Immortality.

At present.

The suspicion that the Cyan Yang Divine Court might have a Great Emperor powerhouse in residence was undoubtedly disastrous news for the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land.

If a Great Emperor arrived in person, even with the Emperor’s Soldier in place, they would certainly be no match for it.

An Emperor’s Soldier.

Ultimately, it was only a Great Emperor’s weapon.

No matter how strong the weapon of a Great Emperor, it cannot withstand a true Great Emperor.

At that moment.

The members of the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land felt the urge to retreat.

This news was too shocking to ignore.

The Cyan Yang Divine Court was presumed to be a soft target, with various forces gathering to annihilate it and divide its assets.

But once informed of a Great Emperor observing them, immense pressure descended upon them.

Then.

A Heaven-shocking Sword Gang split through the void, sword intent soaring to the skies, as Aoba stepped into the air, enveloping the entire Celestial Thunder Sacred Land in terrifying power.

"How dare!"

As Aoba made his move, Dongfang Qi couldn’t afford any distraction, unleashing mighty power to block the devastating strike.

Nonetheless——

The Reincarnation Sword Dao’s power was exceedingly formidable, and even with Dongfang Qi’s full mastery at the sixth-stage True Monarch level, he could not withstand it.

"Boom!"

Qi boiled throughout Dongfang Qi, a mouthful of hot blood surged, almost bursting out but was forcefully swallowed back.

With Aoba’s action, the battle started anew.

Though the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land arrived aggressively, supported by numerous Sacred Land sects and many sixth-stage True Monarch powerhouses, the Cyan Yang Divine Court was no weakling either.

Having annihilated three Sacred Lands and subdued the entire Ancient Wilderness, the Cyan Yang Divine Court’s strength surged explosively.

The number of sixth-stage powerhouses surpassed two hundred.

Fifth-stage powerhouses exceeded a thousand, tallying at least one thousand two hundred.

Remaining fourth-stage powerhouses broke past the fifth-stage barrier.

Below the fourth stage need not be mentioned, as their numbers also swelled considerably.

Under such circumstances, the sheer number of sixth-stage and below powerhouses in the Cyan Yang Divine Court surpassed any Great Emperor-level influence.

Although the forces of the Immortal Extinction Realm arrived aggressively, not every faction deployed their entire strength; rather, each sent parts of their cultivators to form a coalition.

The real focal point was the Emperor’s Supreme Treasure.

"Boom!"

Gu Qingyang manipulated the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to form a protective shield, blocking a strike from the Celestial Thunder Emperor. The power of the Emperor’s Soldier was earth-shattering; as it impacted the shield, the shield visibly cracked, then burst apart.

This scene.

Did not cause Gu Qingyang any fear; instead, a hint of joy appeared across his face.

In previous encounters, the power of the Emperor’s Soldier was irresistible; his self-condensed Spiritual Qi shields almost shattered immediately.

Currently, though it blocked the strike for a fleeting moment, this subtle time lapse indicated something.

The power remnants left by the Celestial Thunder Emperor had nearly been exhausted, a scenario entirely within Gu Qingyang’s expectations.

Soon.

Gu Qingyang’s Dharma Body perished, and a new one formed once more.
