Chapter 5168 Arriving
Under this gaze that could make even ordinary immortals kneel in submission, Su Bai felt his immortal body groaning under the strain, every bone creaking and cracking.
But he stood tall with his back straight, his eyes flashing like lightning, calmly meeting the terrifying will of the Demon Ancestor, without the slightest fear in his eyes.
"Humph!"
A cold snort came from the abyss, causing the Boundary Sea to surge with towering waves.
"Well... well, what a prince."
After a long while, the Demon Ancestor's hoarse and ancient voice rang out again, carrying a strange meaning.
"Heavenly Venerable, since you are willing to go to such lengths for a junior, even resorting to the resources of the Primordial Heavenly Court, then I will grant you face. Let's leave this matter alone for now."
The Demon Ancestor's voice carried a hint of apprehension. He wasn't afraid of the Celestial Venerable, but rather of the possible upper realm schemes behind the Celestial Venerable, and the "perfect Dao aura" emanating from Su Bai that even he couldn't fathom.
"but......"
The Demon Ancestor's tone suddenly shifted, a chilling glint flashing in his blood-red eyes:
"The passage to the upper realm is about to open, and the 'Battle for Supremacy of Myriad Races,' which occurs once every billion years, is imminent. At that time, the older generation will not be allowed to interfere, the secrets of heaven will be obscured, and life and death will be left to fate. I want to see if you, this so-called imperial prince, can survive the siege of my Demon Kingdom's billions of geniuses and countless powerful beings from all realms!"
"I hope your bones will still be as strong as they are today by then!"
The next moment, accompanied by a cold snort that shook the universe, the sky-covering demonic face slowly dissipated, turning into endless darkness and receding away like a receding tide.
At the edge of the Boundary Sea, the Azure Spring Demon Emperor, who had been observing coldly, withdrew his towering demonic hand, which was powerful enough to crush stars.
His gentle, jade-like eyes gazed deeply at Su Bai, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.
The murderous intent in that smile was gone; instead, there was an indescribable appreciation, even a sense of anticipation.
"Su Bai, we'll meet at the end of immortality. I hope that at that time, you can still bring me surprises like you do today."
The Azure Spring Demon Emperor whispered softly, then waved his sleeve.
"call!"
A gentle yet domineering magical force swept up the Holy Light Demon Emperor, who was heavily injured and unconscious in the distance with his imperial robes torn, and the Blood Axe Demon Emperor, who was left with only a wisp of his soul.
With a flash, he tore through the void and disappeared into the endless darkness with the remnants of the Demon Kingdom.
With the departure of the powerful figures from the Demon Kingdom, the suffocating and terrifying pressure that had been looming over everyone's hearts finally receded like a tide.
"call......"
Su Bai swayed violently, his taut nerves finally relaxing. A wave of overwhelming fatigue washed over him, making his vision blur and nearly causing him to collapse.
Although he survived the tribulation, his vital energy was greatly depleted, and he was now at his last gasp.
Just then, in the sky, the illusory figure of the Celestial Venerable, shrouded in golden light, slowly lowered his head.
His gaze pierced through the thick fog and landed on Su Bai, his eyes containing a deep and unfathomable meaning.
"Su Bai, you did a great job."
The Celestial Venerable's voice was vast and majestic, echoing throughout the entire Boundary Sea, "Return to the Heavenly Court immediately to heal your wounds. Three months later, I will personally inaugurate the Imperial Son Conferment Ceremony for you in the Lingxiao Palace, proclaiming it to all realms! Let all the heavens and races know that my Heavenly Court has produced a truly peerless genius!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the illusory figure of the Celestial Venerable seemed to see Ye Shenfei, who was seriously injured, in the distant void.
He didn't say anything, but simply raised his hand, and an endless divine light containing rich vitality and the power of creation shot out from his fingertips, instantly merging into Ye Shenfei's body.
"Om-"
Nourished by that divine light, Ye Shenfei's terrifying injuries stabilized rapidly at a visible speed, and even her damaged immortal essence was quickly recovering.
Her originally pale face gradually regained a rosy hue.
However, Ye Shenfei did not show any gratitude. Instead, she snorted coldly and turned her head away.
Clearly, she was still angry about the Celestial Venerable's cold-blooded indifference and even his obstruction of her rescue efforts.
If Su Bai hadn't been strong enough, not only would Su Bai have died today, but she would have perished here as well.
Now, the Celestial Venerable is willing to step in to protect Su Bai, and even goes so far as to bestow divine light to heal his injuries, simply because he has seen the astonishing potential in Su Bai and wants to bind him to the Heavenly Court's war chariot.
This made Ye Shenfei very dissatisfied, but she could do nothing about it.
This is the art of imperial rule.
"Good disciple, I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"
Ye Shenfei turned to Su Bai and said, "From today onwards, the name of the Sword God King will surely spread throughout the myriad realms! When we return to the Great Desolate Heavenly Court, your master will celebrate for you properly! At that time, I will let you taste my treasured 'Hundred Flower Wine' that I have kept for ten thousand years!"
"Thank you, Master!"
"Respectfully bidding farewell to our Master, Heavenly Venerable!"
Su Bai hadn't even finished speaking.
Whoosh!
The next moment, Ye Shenfei's figure was swept up by a golden light and disappeared completely along with the Heavenly Venerable's phantom, leaving only a void that gradually returned to calm.
The crisis was completely resolved, and the border sea returned to tranquility.
Su Bai's face was still pale. Although he had successfully transcended the tribulation and achieved perfect immortality, and had recovered a lot with the help of the source crystal, the continuous battles had depleted his source and the tribulation lightning was still difficult for him to withstand.
"Su Bai!"
"Junior brother!"
In the distance, Luo Yunsheng, Jiu Zhen, Luo Yunyou, and others, who had been protected by Ye Shenfei in the Divine Realm, were finally released.
They looked at Su Bai with worry in their eyes.
"It's nothing, I'm just a little overexerted, I won't die."
Su Bai waved his hand, indicating that everyone should not worry.
Looking at his companions who had stood by him through thick and thin, a warm feeling welled up in his heart.
The Central Emperor stood silently not far away, holding a golden halberd, and vigilantly scanned his surroundings. He had been left here by the Heavenly Venerable to protect Su Bai.
Just then, a deafening roar came from afar.
A massive fleet of tens of thousands of ships, like a torrent of steel, sailed in from the entrance of the border sea.
The "万" (wan) character flag engraved on the ship's hull fluttered in the wind.
That was Fu Yunxiu leading the Wanzhou Chamber of Commerce army, which had finally arrived!
On the flagship, Fu Yunxiu looked at the devastated void before him.
The void within a radius of ten thousand miles was shattered into chaos, countless fragments of stars floated, and the edges of the ruins of the Red-Clothed Palace completely disappeared, leaving only a huge crater.
And the lingering, terrifying fluctuations of the laws of nature in the air.
I was completely stunned.
"What...what exactly happened here?"
Although he arrived late and missed witnessing the earth-shattering battle, he could still imagine how tragic and spectacular it was from these remaining traces.
"Su Bai! You... you actually did it!"
Fu Yunxiu no longer cared about the demeanor of a prince. He flew down and transformed into a streak of light, rushing to Su Bai and giving him a solid hug.
"You really know how to surprise people! Breaking through to the Immortal Realm and causing such a commotion, almost causing the Primordial Heavenly Court and the Demon Kingdom to go to war prematurely, is truly unprecedented! I admire you!"
