Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree-Chapter 262: Great Emperor’s Ultimate Skill, Suppressing the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land!

Chapter 262: Chapter 262: Great Emperor’s Ultimate Skill, Suppressing the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land!

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the figure in green was surrounded by ten thousand bolts of thunder, emerging as if a divine being had descended to the mortal world. The terrifying aura emanated from him, and with a single step, he shattered the void.

"Today, I shall let you witness the true form of the Thunder God of the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land!"

The figure in green roared, and as he spoke, a terrifying offensive was already crashing toward Gu Qingyang.

Gu Qingyang remained unfazed as he delivered a palm strike to suppress it. Two powerful forces clashed in the void, unleashing waves of destructive energy.

Billowing waves of energy surged forth; the green-clad figure did not retreat even a step. His hands, as if they commanded the thunder and lightning of heaven and earth, gave rise to a Divine Blade from the endless lightning, which then slashed down fiercely.

Sacred Land’s Secret Techniques!

Divine Thunder Slash!

As the Divine Blade descended, Gu Qingyang felt as if he was facing the mighty force of the heavens itself. It seemed the blade before him was not merely a blade, but the oppressive might of the heavens approaching.

"Impressive!"

Witnessing this, Gu Qingyang couldn’t help but offer rare praise.

To be honest.

The intricacies of the Divine Thunder Slash were not a fraction less than the Divinity Transformation Sword Technique he had once obtained.

If it were an ordinary cultivator, facing such overwhelming might, they would naturally be at a disadvantage.

However.

Gu Qingyang was different.

He himself was an existence on par with the Heavenly Dao and feared not the overwhelming might carried by the Divine Thunder Slash.

Thus.

When the Divine Thunder Slash fell, Gu Qingyang’s fingertips shattered the void, and the solidified Sword Qi, like a dragon, shot out instantly, shattering the Divine Blade condensed by thunder.

Swiftly, Gu Qingyang delivered a palm strike, and boundless Sword Qi erupted from his palm, instantly engulfing the green-clad figure completely.

The latter’s expression changed dramatically. The Celestial Thunder Divine Body condensed Protective Gang Qi, attempting to block this supreme strike.

Yet.

In the face of absolute power, Protective Gang Qi was equally ineffective.

Endless Sword Qi surged forth, and the Celestial Thunder Gang Qi shattered instantly. The Sword Qi pierced through the body of the green-clad figure, causing him to fall heavily.

However.

The vitality of a Quasi-Emperor was extraordinarily tenacious; what would be a fatal injury to ordinary people was merely a light wound to a Quasi-Emperor.

The green-clad figure rose once more, wounds pierced by Sword Qi healing already, and an imposing Emperor’s Might rose from his form. Soon, a towering body was seen forming in the void.

"Celestial Emperor Fist!"

The green-clad figure’s gaze was sharp, and at that moment, it seemed as though the power of heaven and earth converged upon him, transforming him into an Ancient Great Emperor, throwing a supreme punch.

This punch.

Appeared to traverse endless time and space.

From the green-clad figure, Gu Qingyang seemed to see the Celestial Thunder Emperor from Ancient Times, facing the punch head-on.

"Great Emperor’s Ultimate Skill!"

Gu Qingyang’s expression was uncharacteristically solemn.

Clearly.

This punch from the green-clad figure was not as simple as a Quasi-Emperor’s Secret Technique; it had indeed stepped into the realm of the ninth-level Great Emperor.

Punch delivered.

The void shattered.

The terrifying power turned the Azure Sky for miles into turbulent flows, and the entire sky above the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land was filled with dreadful Emperor’s Might.

As the Celestial Emperor Fist came crashing down, Gu Qingyang stepped forward, and with a wave of his hand, ten thousand strands of Sword Qi surged forth. Then, all strands of Sword Qi converged into one, a breathtakingly stunning sword piercing the void, making everyone in the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land feel an aura of terrifying sharpness.

"Boom—"

The Great Emperor Illusion collapsed.

The green-clad figure was directly pierced through the chest by the Sword Qi, falling straight from the void.

This scene.

Left Duanmu Yan utterly shocked and horrified.

The green-clad figure was a Quasi-Emperor of the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land from thirty thousand years ago, with the potential to become a Great Emperor, yet such a being was entirely no match for Gu Qingyang.

Even with the use of the Great Emperor’s Ultimate Skill, Celestial Emperor Fist, he was still heavily wounded by Gu Qingyang with a single sword.

Such power.

How could it not leave Duanmu Yan astounded?

In an instant.

In the Secret Realm of the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land, several bronze coffins began to tremble violently, then the lids rose, and bursts of formidable aura surged skyward.

As Gu Qingyang was about to finish off the green-clad figure, he noticed these burgeoning auras, hesitating slightly, his gaze growing even colder.

"More ancient strong players are awakening. It seems this is the full depth of the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land!"

In his perception.

Among the awakening strong players, two auras were similar to the green-clad figure, both at the Quasi-Emperor level. The remaining two were significantly weaker, likely only at the level of Saints.

In other words.

The Celestial Thunder Sacred Land alone had two slumbering ancient Saints and three Quasi-Emperor strongmen.

The depth of this foundation shows just how terrifying it is.

In the past, the Ancient Wilderness Sacred Land, which dominated the Ancient Wilderness, had only one slumbering ancient Saint.

The next moment.

The void shattered.

Four strong players strode through the void.

Seeing this scene, Duanmu Yan’s face lit up with joy: "My ancestors of the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land have all awakened. Your death is imminent!"

Three Quasi-Emperors!

Two Saints!

He couldn’t believe they couldn’t kill a single Gu Qingyang.

At this moment.

The awakening strongmen were about to speak, but Gu Qingyang gave them no chance, directly delivering a palm strike, ten thousand Sword Qi tearing through space.

The terrifying aura made the expressions of the awakening strongmen transform.

"How daring!"

"Audacious!"

The two Quasi-Emperors wasted no time, each unleashing a move, but were beaten back coughing blood by the ten thousand strands of Sword Qi, while the remaining two Saints didn’t even have time to react and were directly torn apart by the Sword Qi.

"Impossible..."

Duanmu Yan’s smile had not yet fully faded when it froze on his face.

He never expected that the ancestors of the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land, just awoken, would have two Saints killed in one encounter by Gu Qingyang.

Moreover.

Judging by the appearances of the other two Quasi-Emperors, they too were not lightly injured by this strike.

Such strength was far more terrifying than the earlier battle with the green-clad figure.

At this moment.

In the void.

Gu Qingyang stood towering in mid-air, a fearsome aura spreading from him, overshadowing the entire Celestial Thunder Sacred Land, his gaze toward the three Quasi-Emperors indifferent.

"It seems this is all the foundation your Celestial Thunder Sacred Land possesses. Today, I, the Great Emperor, give you an opportunity: if you submit to the Cyan Yang Divine Court, the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land may live."

"Else, today will mark the destruction of the Celestial Thunder Sacred Land!"

"Our Celestial Thunder Sacred Land has stood tall in the world for countless ages; how could we submit to a mere alien cultivator!"

The green-clad man’s expression was furious, the injury on his chest now fully healed.

Though the other two Quasi-Emperors did not speak, the coldness in their eyes as they looked at Gu Qingyang said it all.

"Then nothing more needs to be said!"

Gu Qingyang shook his head lightly and without another word, unleashed the terrifying Spiritual Power within him instantaneously. Boundless Sword Qi cascaded down from the ninth heaven like a milky way.

The void annihilated.

The earth trembled.

The terrifying power made the three Quasi-Emperors feel as if they faced a dire threat.

Their expressions changed dramatically; without hesitation, they unleashed their entire essence and blood, the fiery and robust energy resembling a mighty sun, launching a torrent of power to crush towards Gu Qingyang together.

The two forces collided in mid-air, unleashing an earth-shattering ripple.
