Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree-Chapter 288: Quasi-Immortal Powerhouses

Half-Immortal!

This is the step before Ascension to Immortality.

Or, it could be called Quasi-Immortal.

"From the power imprints left by the two, it is clear that a Quasi-Immortal is far stronger than a Great Emperor. Even with my current power, I may not be able to suppress them!"

Gu Qingyang looked at the slaughter in the void, gaining a new understanding of the power of Quasi-Immortals.

Gu Qingyang originally thought that with his strength, he could easily suppress the entire Immortal Extinction Realm. With the Heavenly Dao not appearing, no one could do anything to him.

Unexpectedly.

The waters of the Immortal Extinction Realm were much deeper than he imagined.

In the Human Emperor Sword and the Demon Emperor Bell, both supreme treasures unexpectedly contained the power imprints left by Quasi-Immortal level experts, and these power imprints have all reached the ninth-order Great Emperor level.

Ninth-order lower-grade strength.

Plus a top-tier Emperor’s Soldier.

Gu Qingyang was not confident in suppressing them.

No.

Gu Qingyang looked at the Human Emperor Sword and the Demon Emperor Bell; these two supreme treasures might not just be Emperor’s Soldiers; they could be even more powerful.

After all, Gu Qingyang himself had devoured many Emperor’s Soldiers, but none could compare to the supreme treasures before him.

It is evident.

The levels of the two supreme treasures must be extremely high.

With this thought.

Gu Qingyang’s heart was burning.

If he could obtain these two supreme treasures, he would surely gain a massive amount of Heaven and Earth Origin, perhaps even allowing himself to truly break through the ninth-order level.

As long as he reaches the ninth-order, even when facing Quasi-Immortal level experts, Gu Qingyang has the confidence to fight.

"It’s just unknown whether my abilities can allow me to directly Ascend to Immortality!"

Gu Qingyang pondered to himself.

He was originally absolutely confident, believing that with his advantages, as long as he collected enough Evolution Value, breakthrough to the tenth-order would certainly not be a problem.

But upon witnessing the Desolate Ancient Human Emperor and the Ancient Demon Emperor, Gu Qingyang’s heart was somewhat shaken as well.

Such peerless experts ultimately stopped at the half-step tenth order.

Can his abilities truly break the ninth-order limit smoothly, allowing him to reliably reach the tenth-order level? Gu Qingyang also does not know.

Taking a deep breath.

Gu Qingyang dismissed the distracting thoughts in his mind.

"Now is not the time to think about so many things. Only when breaking through the ninth-order to perfection, or stepping into the half-step tenth order like the two, is it time to consider ascension.

As for now, there’s no need to think so much for the time being!"

Gu Qingyang calmed down, watching the slaughter in the void sect. The Desolate Ancient Human Emperor and the Ancient Demon Emperor were both very powerful; the aftermath of their battle almost covered the entire Azure Sky of Celestial Desolation.

However.

Ultimately, both had fallen.

What they left behind was not their true selves, merely a power imprint.

Gu Qingyang could clearly feel that as time passed, the power of the two was gradually weakening, and it wouldn’t be long before this power imprint would completely dissipate.

"But, this Desolate Ancient Human Emperor’s strength is indeed formidable, truly worthy of being the legendary figure capable of leading the human race to break adversity and thoroughly suppress the demon race.

His strength, at full strength, is presumably even stronger than the Ancient Demon Emperor."

Gu Qingyang could see that in their battle, the Desolate Ancient Human Emperor gradually gained the upper hand. Although this advantage was not very obvious, the one to fall first could only be the Ancient Demon Emperor.

Of course.

Nothing is absolute.

Moreover.

The Demon Emperor Bell was a supreme treasure passed down from ancient times. The Ancient Demon Emperor’s imprint on it had been worn down over millions of years, much older than the Human Emperor Sword.

The power imprint left on it could not completely withstand the ravages of time; some loss of power is only natural.

Just as Gu Qingyang was contemplating, he heard a deafening sound from the heavens and earth, then saw the magnificent demon emperor bell’s phantom shattering.

The majestic form of the Ancient Demon Emperor was torn apart by the Emperor’s Soldier Human Emperor Sword, no blood spattered, only the void trembled, and the entire Celestial Desolation seemed to shudder.

Looking down at his own injuries, the Ancient Demon Emperor looked at the Desolate Ancient Human Emperor with an indifferent expression, appearing to show a hint of regret.

"A pity, if it were a few million years earlier, you might not have had the chance to kill me!"

"The name of the Ancient Demon Emperor was not in vain. In this battle, indeed, I have not won gloriously, but racial conflict recognizes only victory or defeat. It seems the demon race is destined to be extinguished!"

The Desolate Ancient Human Emperor’s expression was equally indifferent.

Upon hearing this, the Ancient Demon Emperor said nothing, only a tinge of regret in his eyes, then his form gradually faded and disappeared.

With the power of the Demon Emperor imprint exhausted, the Ancient Demon Emperor had truly vanished from the world.

The shadow of the Demon Emperor dissipated.

The Desolate Ancient Human Emperor stood in the void, his eyes coldly regarding the demon race below. Any demons he fixed his gaze upon felt immense panic stirring in their hearts.

There was no choice.

The Desolate Ancient Human Emperor was the strongest of the human race throughout history.

Even the power imprint of the Ancient Demon Emperor was not his match.

Now that the power of the Ancient Demon Emperor had vanished, who among the demon race could contend against this Desolate Ancient Human Emperor?

"Today, the demon race shall perish!"

The Desolate Ancient Human Emperor’s mouth uttered a sentence, then he saw the Human Emperor Sword cleave through the void.

This one strike.

Contained all the power of the Desolate Ancient Human Emperor’s imprint.

As the Emperor’s Soldier cleaved down, using the sword’s point as the starting position, the entire world seemed to split in two, and all lifeforms obstructing the sword’s path, regardless of strength, turned to ashes without even a struggle.

The remaining demon Quasi-Emperors showed expressions of despair, then looked at each other, seeing determination in one another’s eyes.

Without hesitation.

These Quasi-Emperors began to burn their essence blood and Divine Soul, prepared to use everything they had to block the Desolate Ancient Human Emperor’s one strike.

Otherwise.

The elite of the demon race would surely all perish.

If it truly came to that, it would indeed be the end of the demon race.

Just as the demon race prepared to make a last stand, an Azure Celestial Divine Tree suddenly appeared in the void, its rich azure light reaching the heavens.

A figure in green robes emerged from the azure light, looking at the strike that cleaved through heavens and earth, extending a right hand, gathering Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi madly.

The Divine Sword formed.

In the moment Gu Qingyang grasped the Spiritual Energy Divine Sword, he slashed at the void.

The vast power of the heavens followed, the domineering Sword Qi like an emperor’s presence, the terrifying force of the Sword Qi clashing caused the world to plunge into momentary darkness.

The next instant.

The Sword Qi of the Emperor’s Soldier shattered.

The Imperial Extreme Sword Qi obliterated everything, directly penetrating the chest of the Desolate Ancient Human Emperor.

The other party’s expression shifted subtly, looking at Gu Qingyang with some astonishment: "Unexpectedly, there is a strong figure like you emerging in this era. It’s a great regret in life not to have fought against you truly!"

With that said.

The phantom of the Desolate Ancient Human Emperor, like the Ancient Demon Emperor, gradually faded and disappeared from the void.

All the cultivators of both races now focused their gaze on the figure in green robes in the void, their eyes filled with awe and shock.
