Heaven-Surpassing Divine Emperor

This sudden, shocking turn of events caught the attention of countless powerhouses.

Streaks of auspicious, rosy light descended from the heavens.

These colorful rays of light condensed into ribbons of light, stretching for tens of thousands of miles and blanketing nearly the entire Profound Celestial Ice Field.

The moment these ribbons of light appeared, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi on the Profound Celestial Ice Field suddenly grew denser.

The gales stopped!

The blizzard dissipated!

The glaciers melted...

Spring returned to the earth!

This was simply a miracle!

The Profound Celestial Ice Field had been frozen for who knows how many eons, but today, the ice and snow that had covered it for countless millennia actually began to thaw!

"What’s happening?"

"I know... I once read in an ancient scripture that a situation like this means our Icefield Race’s Profound Celestial Ancestor Realm is about to reappear in the world!"

"Profound Celestial Ancestor Realm? That name sounds so familiar..."

"In the history of the Profound Celestial Ice Field, the Profound Celestial Ancestor Realm has appeared three times. Each time, it sent shockwaves through the entire Eastern Continent, and all the Peak experts of the Eastern Continent would rush here."

Outside Purple Wind City, on the battlefield, everyone had stopped fighting, each person bathing in the aurora-like ribbons of light.

The powerhouses of the Icefield Race felt it most profoundly. Under the glow of the light, their bodies grew comfortably warm.

It was as if they had returned to their mother’s embrace!

Jiang Chen looked up at the Celestial Vault, his brow furrowed slightly. ’Profound Celestial Ancestor Realm? What kind of place is that?’

He glanced around and saw that the powerhouses of the three major clans were all looking up at the Celestial Vault.

A fervent blaze burned in everyone’s eyes.

Jiang Chen muttered to himself, "It seems... this corner of the world, the Profound Celestial Ice Field, is about to fall into chaos!"

And indeed it was.

Or rather...

Jiang Chen was only half right. It wasn’t just the Profound Celestial Ice Field that fell into chaos; when this bizarre phenomenon appeared, the entire Eastern Continent was thrown into turmoil.

...

「High above in the sky.」

Zifeng Tianhen, Bing Qianchi, and Wang Shangwu, the three Human Emperor Powerhouses of the Icefield Race, had already stopped fighting.

All three bore grievous injuries.

Zifeng Tianhen was afflicted with the Soul-Loss Gu. By forcibly suppressing it, his combat strength had been severely compromised.

Under the combined assault of Bing Qianchi and Wang Shangwu, none of the three had gained any advantage.

Bing Qianchi and Wang Shangwu stood side-by-side, looking at Zifeng Tianhen. "Zifeng Tianhen, the Profound Celestial Ancestor Realm has now returned to the world. The entire Eastern Continent will fall into chaos. As the three clans of the Icefield Race, we must cast aside our past grievances. Only by joining forces can we fend off the invasion of those powerhouse dynasties from the Eastern Continent."

Wang Shangwu also nodded. "Bing Qianchi is right, Zifeng Tianhen. The conflict between us is merely an internal dispute among our people. But now that the Profound Celestial Ancestor Realm is opening, this is a matter for the entire Icefield Race. We must present a united front to the outside world!"

"Fine!"

Zifeng Tianhen agreed with a nod, showing no hesitation.

He knew very well that what the two of them said made sense!

After all, the Icefield Race was relatively weak!

If the three great tribes couldn’t cooperate sincerely, they would stand no chance against the ravenous powerhouses from the Eastern Continent.

Besides...

With the Purple Wind Clan’s current strength, if they truly fought to the bitter end...

it would only end in mutual destruction!

It was better to just let it go!

Zifeng Tianhen said, "However, your two clans launched a full-scale invasion against my Purple Wind Clan, causing us to suffer heavy losses. I need compensation!"

"That’s simple!"

"We will naturally compensate you!"

Both of them nodded.

Compared to the Profound Celestial Ancestor Realm, what was mere compensation?

After some negotiation, the three of them settled on a compensation plan.

Bing Qianchi said in a low voice, "There is about half a month until the Profound Celestial Ancestor Realm fully manifests. It will take about that long for the powerhouses from the Eastern Continent to arrive. The two of us will head back first to make arrangements!"

Wang Shangwu nodded. "I also need to return to my clan!"

Zifeng Tianhen said, "I won’t see you out!"

Bing Qianchi and Wang Shangwu immediately descended from the sky. At their call, the powerhouses of the Royal Family and the Ice King Race quickly withdrew from the battlefield.

"Father!"

Bing Feng and Bing Sheng stood before Bing Qianchi.

Elder Wang Feng of the Ice King Race also bowed respectfully to Wang Shangwu. "Clan Leader!"

"Now that the Profound Celestial Ancestor Realm has appeared, halt all campaigns against the Purple Wind Clan!" Bing Qianchi said flatly, then frowned. "What’s going on? Where is Little Hu? And why are the two Clan Elders, Fu Shan and Fu Hai, missing?"

Wang Shangwu swept his gaze over the Ice King Race’s powerhouses and also asked, "Where is Clan Elder Wang Xiao? And Duann Shuiliu and Qiann Daomo, why aren’t they here either?"

Everyone’s expressions turned a bit strange.

The two Human Emperors froze, a strong sense of unease rising in their hearts. In a low voice, they demanded, "What exactly happened?"

"Father, Fourth Brother, Duann Shuiliu, Qiann Daomo, Clan Elder Wang Xiao, Clan Elder Fu Shan, and Clan Elder Fu Hai... they’re all dead," Bing Sheng said grimly.

"What?"

"Did they die at the hands of the Purple Wind Clan Members?" the two Human Emperors asked, their faces dark.

Bing Qianchi, in particular, looked absolutely ghastly. His youngest son had just died not long ago, and now his fourth son was dead as well.

The repeated sorrow of a white-haired man burying his black-haired sons felt like a knife twisting in his heart.

"It wasn’t the Purple Wind Clan. It was a kid from the Human Race!" Bing Feng blurted out. "Father, you have to avenge Fourth Brother and the others! Not only did that kid kill them, but I also heard he’s the one who cured the Soul-Loss Gu in the Purple Wind Clan Members. Otherwise, we would have already conquered the Purple Wind Clan by now."

"A kid from the Human Race?"

The gazes of Bing Qianchi and Wang Shangwu both turned cold, their expressions filled with chilling killing intent. "A mere kid from the Human Race dared to kill my son and slaughter my clan’s elders? How can I let him live?"

Wang Shangwu also roared in anger, "Where is that bastard?"

"That’s him over there!"

Bing Feng pointed his finger at Jiang Chen.

"I will take his head to honor my son’s spirit in heaven!" Bing Qianchi snorted coldly, his figure vanishing from the spot.

Jiang Chen was just dispelling his God-Devouring Realm.

Just as he was about to head to Purple Wind City, every pore on his body suddenly prickled. With a flicker of his Divine Thought, he sensed a deathly aura lock onto him.

The aura was terrifying, and its arrival was abrupt!

’Not good!’

Jiang Chen’s figure flickered. Using the Shadow Body Technique, he instantly split into ten "Jiang Chens" that shot out in all directions.

"Oh? You actually detected me? But do you really think you can escape from me?"

Bing Qianchi let out a soft sound of surprise, then sneered coldly. "Perish!"

Bing Qianchi struck with his palm, and sharp, icy glints of light shot out from between his five fingers, instantly catching up to the ten "Jiang Chens."

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Nine of the Jiang Chens were annihilated in an instant, leaving only the original body.

Jiang Chen’s expression changed slightly. Pushing his Divine Demon Tyrant Body to its limit, he brought the Spirit-Slaying Sword up to block in front of him.

DONG—

It was like being struck by a mountain. The dark golden light around Jiang Chen flared, and he spat out a mouthful of blood as his body was sent flying backward. He flew for several thousand meters like a falling meteor before crashing to the ground with a BOOM.

The bones in both his arms were shattered, and his internal organs were severely damaged!

An attack from a Human Emperor!

How could Jiang Chen possibly contend with that?

"Oh? You survived a blow from me? Such a powerful physical body. No wonder you were able to kill Little Hu and Fu Shan. But no matter how strong your body is, you won’t escape death today!" Bing Qianchi said with a cold laugh.

Just as he was about to strike again, Zifeng Tianhen’s furious roar echoed, "Bing Qianchi, if you dare touch a single hair on young friend Jiang Chen, believe me when I say that tomorrow, my entire Purple Wind Clan will be at the gates of your Royal Family’s city!"

As soon as he said this, Bing Qianchi’s expression changed dramatically.

He stared at Zifeng Tianhen with suspicion and uncertainty. "Zifeng Tianhen, what is the meaning of this? Are you really going to disregard your own clan for the sake of a single human?"

"Hmph!"

Zifeng Tianhen snorted coldly and said, "It’s not just my opinion. This is the will of the entire Purple Wind Clan. Anyone who dares to harm young friend Jiang Chen is making an enemy of our clan!"

"That’s right!"

"Young Master Jiang is the benefactor of our Purple Wind Clan! Who dares to touch him?"

The powerhouses of the Purple Wind Clan roared one after another.

Bing Qianchi’s expression flickered, a trace of hesitation in his eyes. He snorted coldly and said, "Fine. Today, I’ll give you, Zifeng Tianhen, this much face."

He glanced sideways at Jiang Chen, the corner of his mouth curling up in a disdainful and contemptuous smirk. "Human Race kid, consider yourself lucky today to have the entire Purple Wind Clan protecting you. But they can protect you for a day, not for a lifetime. The debt for killing my son and slaughtering my clan’s elders can only be repaid with your life!"

"Heh."

Supported by a few Purple Wind Clan powerhouses, Jiang Chen stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said in a low, heavy voice, "Bing Qianchi, you are a mighty Human Emperor. I admit I am not your match right now. However, I, Jiang Chen, swear that from this day forward, I will kill every member of your Royal Family I see. If I see a pair, I will slaughter them both. And it won’t be long before I, Jiang Chen, personally pay a visit to your Royal Family to take your dog head!"

"Hmm?"

Bing Qianchi’s eyes narrowed, and he immediately sneered in disdain. "You ignorant brat who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. This Emperor will be waiting for you!"

SWOOSH—

Bing Qianchi turned and left.

Watching the receding figure, Jiang Chen clenched his fists, his gaze incomparably resolute as he spoke, word by word...

’So what if he’s a Human Emperor? One day, I will take back what I’m owed, with interest!’
