I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night-Chapter 1406 - 735: Divine Power Approaching the Emperor Realm!

"If the Saint Master hesitates any longer, once he gains momentum, you're bound to die!" the Northern Ghost Emperor shouted loudly.

"This fiend is ambitious, dreaming of dominating the Three Realms and suppressing everything. To him, the Human Clan is nothing but ants, merely blood food to nourish the Netherworld army!" the First Hall Yama said.

"If the Central Ghost Emperor truly steps into the Emperor Realm, how can you, the Human Race Saint Master, be his match?" the Eastern Ghost Emperor said intensely.

"Saint Master, do not hesitate!" the Tenth Hall Yama said, "Though the past between us and the Human Clan is filled with grudges, in the future we can befriend the Human Clan... But the future with the Central Ghost Emperor, I'm afraid, holds the power to annihilate the Human Clan! Which side is heavier or lighter, whom to help, the Saint Master should already see clearly!"

"Too late!"

The Central Ghost Emperor laughed heartily, saying, "All your powers belong to me. With my ascension to the Emperor Realm today, nothing can stop me!"

Since the time of the Ancient Heavenly Court, the rules have never changed.

Without the Heavenly Emperor's conferment, and the blessing of the Three Provinces, the Divine Spirits cannot ascend.

After the collapse of the Heavenly Court, these ancient Old Gods lost the opportunity to ascend.

But today, the Central Ghost Emperor seeks to ascend to the Emperor Realm, not by his own Divine Position, but by ascending to the Emperor Realm.

He is gathering the authority of the Yin Tianzi, becoming the new generation Yin Tianzi.

If successful today, he will be the Yin Tianzi of the Netherworld, the sole Emperor Realm in control of the Netherworld.

The Central Ghost Emperor was seen constantly devouring the authority of the various high-ups of the Netherworld, continuously expanding himself.

The high-ups of the Netherworld all felt infinite panic, desperately urging the Human Race Saint Master to act quickly.

——

Previously, many Heavenly Gods in the Mortal World had already returned to the Heavenly Realm to guard their foundational Dao Fruits.

But their eyes still pierced through the Three Realms, watching the movements of the Netherworld.

At this moment, night had fallen.

The great sun faded, causing the Netherworld and the Mortal World to merge into one.

The eyes of these Heavenly Gods were no longer obstructed, and they could directly watch the battle in the Netherworld.

They also saw the Qi Mechanism of the Central Ghost Emperor, constantly approaching the Emperor Realm, about to cross that threshold.

This threshold was the Heavenly Gate in the eyes of countless Immortal Gods!

Just as mortal life crosses the Gate of Tao to achieve immortality!

In the eyes of mortals, Immortal Gods hold endless mystery and majesty, supreme and untouchable.

In the eyes of the All Heavens Immortals, the existence of the Emperor Realm is the same.

The Emperor Realm is the Immortal God among Immortal Gods!

"Can he really take this step?"

"No wonder he was willing to offer the Divine Blood of the Yin Tianzi and urged us to protect him, seeking not self-preservation against the Human Race Saint Master but achieving the Emperor Realm."

"He has already touched the Emperor Realm, yet this half-step is still infinitely distant."

"In the ancient Heavenly Court, many existed with half a foot across the threshold, about to enter the Emperor Realm... but throughout the Ancient Era, they could not place the other half foot across the Emperor Realm threshold." 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"The Eastern Canglong Emperor, Western White Tiger Emperor, Southern Vermilion Bird Emperor, Northern Black Tortoise Emperor, Central Soaring Serpent Emperor, etc... these were existences that nearly crossed the threshold in ancient times, yet to this day, none have truly taken that step."

"No matter what, the Central Ghost Emperor is already the most powerful existence among the contemporary Immortal Gods."

"Without the Emperor Realm's appearance, the Central Ghost Emperor can be considered invincible in the world."

"The Human Race Saint Master can no longer block his steps."

The All Heavens True Gods discussed, filled with emotions and extreme envy.

The Central Ghost Emperor's former status was merely one of the Yama Kings of the Netherworld.

After the fall of the Yin Tianzi, he seized the authority and further ascended, celebrated as the Ghost Emperor.

In the Ancient Era, the tier of the Central Ghost Emperor was even slightly weaker than ordinary Upper Celestial Gods.

But in this era, he is already the strongest under the Emperor Realm.

Meanwhile, in the Ancient God Heavenly Court.

The Furnace Elder's eyes were filled with complex emotions.

All these years, all he sought was to go one step further and become an Emperor Realm being.

Yet, he still hadn't achieved the Emperor Realm. Instead, the Central Ghost Emperor, whom he once disregarded as a mere Ghost King of the Netherworld, had now touched this realm.

He raised his head, looking towards the sky.

The Northern Black Tortoise Emperor had already returned to the Heavenly Realm, guarding his foundational Dao Fruit.

For the Furnace Elder, he wasn't truly a Heavenly God in the full sense.

His foundation wasn't in the Heavenly Realm.

The Human Race Saint Master couldn't wipe out his foundation.

However, with hundreds of Heavenly Gods retreating, he dared not abandon the Northern Black Tortoise Emperor, so he had to retreat together.

Otherwise, he would've already used the Northern Black Tortoise Emperor to ambush the Human Race Saint Master earlier.

"It seems today, this old man can't kill the Human Race Saint Master, and instead, the Central Ghost Emperor will succeed."

The Furnace Elder thought to himself.

The various Boundary lands, all the ancient Old Gods, watched the direction of the Central Netherworld.

Those ancient evil spirits that had slept for thousands of years and those former human powerhouses... all focused on this battle.

Among them, the emotions of the ancient humans were the most complex.

They were once members of the Human Clan, once the high-ups of the Human Clan, pillars safeguarding one side, possibly a leader of the Human Clan in some era.

But under the grind of time, they turned away from the Human Clan, choosing slumber, even turning to using the Human Clan as food to consolidate themselves.

In this era, their emotions were extremely complex.

Watching the Human Clan grow stronger, they, who once belonged to the Human Clan, now estranged from them.

At this moment, seeing the greatest hope of the Human Clan trapped in the Central Netherworld, about to face a newly born Emperor Realm existence, almost certain death.

Since the Ancient Era, the most prosperous era of the Human Clan also faces the most terrifying crisis.

"The strength of the current Human Clan is unprecedented!"

"But the threats of this era are equally unprecedented!"

"In the past, the Human Clan faced threats from the Deceit Night, persecution from evil, the influence of the Old Gods, and the corruption of the human heart... But now, they face ancient Divine Spirits awakening from the depths of time."

"If they can overcome this tribulation, the Human Clan will be the protagonist of the next era."

"If they cannot overcome this tribulation, the Human Clan... will perish!"

The emotions of these ancient humans were extremely complex.

They both wished for the Human Clan to triumph.

Yet, they felt they were no longer part of the current Human Clan, destined to be considered "Physical Body Evil" by the Human Clan in the future!

——

Every corner of the world was shocked by this phenomenon.

Meanwhile, within the Netherworld.

All the high-ups of the Netherworld could no longer urge the Human Race Saint Master, nor could they resist the extraction of the Thirteen-layered Tai Sui Yin Yang Array.

The Central Ghost Emperor alone was filled with joy, watching as he was about to completely cross over and reach the level of the former Yin Tianzi.

His gaze was fixed intently on Lin Yan, the Human Race Saint Master.

Unexpectedly, the Human Race Saint Master seemed to be so startled by his near-Emperor Realm power that he dared not act rashly until now.

"..."

Lin Yan's eyes flickered, holding the Night Illuminating Divine Sword, standing thousands of miles away, gazing ahead, not interrupting the Thirteen-layered Tai Sui Yin Yang Array.

"Saint Master, the time is now," the Kunlun Emperor's son said softly, "If we don't act now, once the Central Ghost Emperor truly accomplishes the Emperor Realm, we're certainly no match."

"He won't achieve the Emperor Realm."

Lin Yan spoke indifferently, looking ahead, "In the past, Netherworld authority was dispersed, making it difficult to defeat them individually while facing the threat of their united alliance."

"Now that the Central Ghost Emperor has consolidated most of the authority, though presenting a stronger opponent, it also saves me a lot of trouble."

"As long as I slay this Central Ghost Emperor today, I can capture half of the Netherworld's authority in one go."

"Instead of a prolonged and exhausting battle, depleting the Human Clan's elite along the way, it's better to engage in a decisive battle today!"

Lin Yan's voice was firm as he said, "Today, to accomplish everything in one battle, in the presence of the Netherworld, even if the Emperor Realm attacks, I won't be afraid!"

As his voice fell, the voice of the Central Ghost Emperor came filled with fear and horror.

"How could this be?"

The Central Ghost Emperor shouted in shock and anger, "Why do you have so little authority within you? The authority of the Yin Tianzi you swallowed back then, how could it be missing so much?"
