Sacred and serene, solemn and dignified.
“Azure Emperor,” Gai Jiuyou whispered.
"Qing Emperor..."
The humanoid red-haired creature that had arrived at the Immortal Transformation Pool also spoke, but its words were not very clear, like a wild beast growling, with blood-red light flashing in its eyes, making it exceptionally fierce.
The man in blue didn't say a word, but slowly raised his hand and pointed a finger. A beam of eternal light shot out and struck the humanoid red-haired creature.
"Demon Emperor, you will pay the price..." A humanoid red light shot up from the crown of Yuan Tianshi's head.
However, it was all in vain.
The Azure Emperor's finger represents eternity, omnipotence, and invincibility. As the azure finger imprint fell, the humanoid blood-red light instantly turned to ash.
"Pop".
The red hair had all disappeared, revealing an old and withered body, devoid of any life force. This was a corpse, buried in an ancient dragon's lair, yet it had failed to achieve immortality through corpse liberation.
"The Emperor's authority is not to be trifled with. You have disturbed his slumber and can only atone with your death."
A foot-long purple Qilin pulled the ancient chariot to the scene. The humanoid creature, over a foot tall, on the stone chariot roared, surrounded by 108 divine halos, as if announcing the end of the world.
Before the Qilin chariot, eight tiny figures, each about half a foot tall, stood in eight directions, each holding a command flag, and began to offer sacrifices to the heavens. Meanwhile, the small blue dragon and the crimson phoenix, each about half a foot long, began to sing.
The Qinling Mountains trembled violently, and boundless dragon energy soared into the sky, converging into a gigantic true dragon that hovered in the sky, looking down upon those below. Its dragon might was as vast as the sea, suffocating all who beheld it.
This is the power of the earth's dragon veins.
As the strongest dragon vein in Central China, the Qinling Dragon Vein represents the great fortune of Central China. It has existed for thousands of years, stretching for millions of miles, and has long since given birth to ancestral deities, possessing incredible power.
The beings shrouded in the 108 divine rings were no strangers to the humanoid red-haired creature inside the Dragon Ball. The man in blue was far too terrifying, so he immediately used the Qinling Dragon Vein to empower himself.
If the dragon's power is scattered, the Central Plains will undergo a dramatic change, and heaven knows what terrible consequences will occur, because this is the collapse of the earth's essence.
The Azure Emperor swept his gaze across the area, and a burst of azure light appeared.
"ah!"
The creature, which was over a foot tall, let out a miserable scream. All 108 divine rings collapsed, and then its body turned into light and evaporated completely.
Even with the Qinling Mountains protecting it, it was all in vain.
Then, the little azure dragon, which was over a foot long, the crimson phoenix, which was more than half a foot long, the little unicorn pulling the cart, and the eight little people leading the way all rushed towards the Azure Emperor.
They displayed an indomitable and extremely powerful force.
However, all these efforts seemed as insignificant as dust in the face of the Azure Emperor.
When they were still more than ten feet away from the handsome man in blue, they evaporated one by one, turning into nothingness.
"boom!"
A surge of divine light burst forth from the ancient dragon's lair, and an ancient dragon chariot rumbled out of the lair. On it was a being radiating divine light, about the same height as an ordinary person, yet terrifying to behold.
The dragon chariot was ancient, and the person wearing an imperial crown and ancient royal robes walked out of the ancient land like a god.
"Gods vanish like dust in the Ganges, I am the immortal emperor of the Central Plains."
"A lotus blooms under the eternal blue sky."
The Azure Emperor spoke calmly, and the green copper block hovered silently above his head.
One flower withers while another blooms; this has been the way of things since time immemorial.
Never before in history have two great emperors met. If both of them were to become emperors, it would be an unprecedented miracle!
Gai Jiuyou's eyes flickered with a mixture of emotions, and after a long while, he muttered to himself, "So that's how it is, I understand now."
Ten thousand years ago, humanoid red-haired creatures wreaked havoc in the Qinling Mountains, killing countless lives.
Before his death, the Azure Emperor harbored murderous intent in the Eastern Wilderness, wanting to kill the humanoid red-haired creature that was wreaking havoc in the Qinling Mountains.
However, when the Qinling dragon moved, the humanoid red-haired creature also disappeared and could not be found.
The Azure Emperor's power is as profound as creation itself. Once the killing intent is unleashed, it will endure forever as long as it does not strike its target, automatically absorbing the essence of heaven and earth to replenish its killing power.
"Clang!"
A dragon's roar resounded, and the true dragon formed from the condensed dragon energy of the Qinling Mountains transformed into a long sword. The dragon's head formed the sword's edge, the dragon's claws formed the sword's pattern, and the dragon's tail formed the sword's hilt. The sword's energy soared into the sky, and its sharpness was unparalleled.
"Clang!"
On the ancient chariot, the god-like being raised his hand and grasped the dragon sword. His aura instantly increased dramatically, causing the entire Qinling Mountains, spanning millions of miles, to tremble.
All the birds and beasts cried out in anguish, and even those far away prostrated themselves, utterly powerless to resist, and continued to worship.
"Azure Emperor, you are too arrogant. Do you really think I don't know your strengths and weaknesses? I will send you to liberation, so that you may disappear from this world forever!"
The Immortal Emperor of Zhongzhou spoke coldly and ruthlessly, his dragon sword ringing out as he slashed forward, exuding an aura of world destruction.
This sword strike was incredibly powerful. If it were to come down, not only would the Immortal Transformation Pool be destroyed, but the Qinling Mountains, spanning millions of miles, would also be destroyed and cease to exist!
Beside the Immortal Transformation Pool, the Azure Emperor gazed silently ahead, his eyes reflecting the evolution of stars and the mysteries of the universe's birth.
Only after the Immortal Emperor on the chariot unleashed a sword strike did he extend two fingers forward to clamp down, arriving in an instant.
"bite!"
