Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree-Chapter 216: Slaying the Great Emperor’s Divine Thought, King Mage!

Chapter 216: Chapter 216: Slaying the Great Emperor’s Divine Thought, King Mage!

"Boom!"

The Emperor’s Soldier exuded divine might, and the Nine Yang Emperor’s power was not inferior to the Celestial Thunder Emperor, both being invincible powerhouses.

But in this era, the Nine Yang Emperor had long fallen, leaving only the Great Emperor’s Seal. Although its power was still formidable, it could no longer compare to a true Great Emperor Powerhouse.

Without the Celestial Thunder Halberd in hand, Gu Qingyang was naturally no match for the Nine Yang Emperor. But with the same Emperor’s Soldier in hand, he had no fear of the Nine Yang Emperor.

In the void.

The two colossal figures clashed, their immense power shattering the Azure Sky. The Nine Suns Banner transformed into nine suns illuminating the sky, with overwhelming flames sweeping across, as if an Ancient Golden Crow had been born, terrifying waves of heat rushing forth.

Many cultivators, upon feeling this temperature, changed their expressions dramatically and hurriedly retreated, fearing they would be swept up in the chaos.

On the other side.

Gu Qingyang also activated the power of the Emperor’s Soldier, with ten thousand thunderbolts gathering from the heavens. When the Divine Halberd struck down, it carried endless thunder with it.

"Rumble!"

Destructive waves continued to erupt as the battle between the two reached a fever pitch.

The power of each strike could cause a Saint to bleed, firmly stepping into the Quasi-Emperor realm.

It’s hard to imagine.

At the beginning of the Golden Era, when no one had yet achieved sainthood, an unrivaled powerhouse on par with a Quasi-Emperor had emerged.

The powerhouse from the Great Sun Sacred Land was anxious, but the problem was they had no ability to recall the Nine Suns Banner, and intervening was out of the question.

As if in jest.

The battle between the two involved the Quasi-Emperor realm. The mere waves emanating from it could stop a Saint in their tracks, and those below Saint level would surely perish if caught in it.

"Crack!"

The thunder tore through the void, the Great Sun Golden Crow shattered, and the mighty power of the Celestial Thunder Halberd forcefully broke through the blockade of the Nine Suns Banner, striking the Nine Yang Emperor hard.

Under the violent release of power, the Great Emperor’s Seal was directly obliterated.

As the power of the Nine Yang Emperor was completely worn away, the might of the Nine Suns Banner plummeted, and Gu Qingyang easily suppressed this Emperor’s Soldier from the Great Sun Sacred Land.

Suppressing the Emperor’s Soldier.

Gu Qingyang, adeptly, directly sacrificed the Emperor’s Soldier, forcibly throwing it into the Cyan Yang realm.

This scene, seen by the powerhouses of the Great Sun Sacred Land, made them seethe with anger.

"Return the Emperor’s Soldier quickly!"

"Don’t even think about seizing the Nine Suns Banner—"

Someone, blinded by rage, charged directly at Gu Qingyang, but before getting close, they were struck by lightning, and the next moment they were obliterated, not a trace left.

The other powerhouses of the Great Sun Sacred Land, seeing this, had their rage doused as if by a bucket of cold water, leaving them unable to act arrogantly.

Until this moment.

They finally remembered.

The person before them was a powerhouse capable of contending with the Nine Yang Emperor.

They, being only True Monarch level, were no match for such a presence.

In an instant.

The Great Sun Sacred Land lost all will to fight and led all cultivators to retreat, fearing being wiped out by Gu Qingyang if they lingered.

Fortunately, Gu Qingyang never took the initiative to strike at the powerhouses of the Great Sun Sacred Land. After suppressing the Nine Suns Banner, he moved on to other battlefields.

This time.

He intended to claim all Emperor’s Soldiers for himself.

An Emperor’s Soldier could almost equate to a Quasi-Emperor powerhouse, and even without the power of the Great Emperor’s Seal, it was equivalent to a top-tier Saint.

Such a Supreme Treasure, Gu Qingyang naturally couldn’t miss.

Not to mention.

A ninth-tier Emperor’s Soldier must contain a large amount of Heavenly Dao Origin.

Gu Qingyang lacked many things right now, most of all the Heavenly Dao Origin.

However.

Although Gu Qingyang did not strike at the Great Sun Sacred Land or other forces, the cultivators of the Cyan Yang Divine Court in this city were the first to launch a counterattack.

Previously suppressed by the Great Sun Sacred Land’s Emperor’s Soldier, they had pent-up anger. Now they naturally aimed to beat the fallen dogs.

"Kill!"

A sixth-tier King Mage raised his Magic Staff, and the powers of heaven and earth suddenly gathered. A phantom appeared, drawing a bow and shooting at a Sacred Land powerhouse.

This terrifying arrow, comparable to the full force of a sixth-tier powerhouse, pierced the Saint’s heart before they could react, leaving them silent.

Suddenly.

An eerie, cold aura struck from the space, a blade slicing through the air. Tao Feng remained unfazed, his vast Spiritual Power forming a Protective Shield, isolating the blade.

Then, a Fire Ring suddenly appeared, the powerful impact instantly blasting the opponent away.

Six-tier Magic!

Ring of Fire Resistance!

This is a common spell among mages, almost every mage, regardless of rank, practices this survival skill.

After all, mages are frail and not as physically robust as Body Refining Cultivators, and even weaker than cultivators. Once attacked at close range, their chances of falling are high.

Therefore.

The Ring of Fire Resistance, as a means of survival, is naturally essential.

However, unlike low-tier fire rings, a sixth-tier Ring of Fire Resistance releases terrifying flames that sweep the area, a heat so intense that even other sixth-tier powerhouses must regard it seriously.

At this time.

The appearance of the Ring of Fire Resistance forced a hidden powerhouse out into the open.

Tao Feng saw this scene, holding his Magic Staff with one hand, instantly chanting a spell, and a sixth-tier Technique was formed in a blink.

Amidst the sudden rise of thunder, it overwhelmed the opponent in an instant.

"Boom—"

The person let out a miserable scream, and when the thunder dispersed, they were already turned to charcoal.

"Hmph, a mere sixth-tier inferior dares to ambush, do you think mages are so easy to deal with?"

Tao Feng smirked with disdain. At lower tiers, mages have relatively weak power within the same rank, but once they break through to fourth-tier and reach the level of Great Magic, they gradually close the gap.

Upon breaking through to fifth-tier, becoming a Great Mage, their destructive power becomes astounding, akin to a mobile artillery.

As for a sixth-tier King Mage, there’s no need for further explanation.

Tao Feng had originally broken through to a sixth-tier inferior, becoming a King Mage. After experiencing a battle across three Sacred Lands, gaining a lot of Contribution Points, he directly advanced to a sixth-tier middle, further elevating his power.

When this city faced the attack of the Great Sun Sacred Land, managing to hold on until Gu Qingyang arrived and not fall, it was largely because of the presence of several King Mages in the city.

After eliminating the attacker, Tao Feng quickly targeted the next one.

Six-tier Technique coalesced, its terrifying power sweeping forth, engulfing one life after another.

Just as the fifth city successfully turned the tide, Gu Qingyang had already arrived at the next city.
