Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 1379: Aromatic Blood (1)

Inside the boundless void, hand after hand appeared and shot toward the forming tribulation.

They had to scatter the power of the laws forming this tribulation. Otherwise, Empyrean Cloud would die, the guardians would flip out, and the Death Realm would plunge the world into chaos.

Inside her city, Empyrean Cloud roared furiously and stared at the sky with indignance.

Why? Why could others hit her yet she couldn't hit back?

She had guarded the world of the living for a hundred thousand years. For an ancient duty, she had served loyally, living like the dead.

Why was she deserving of punishment?

She could not accept this.

She roared furiously, "Boss, don't interfere. Let me take a good look at the laws. Do they kill me? I have served the Myriad Realms for a hundred thousand years. I have rendered great service to all life. I am no sinner!"

She was no sinner.

She could not accept this. She was unsatisfied.

The old turtle ignored her. The laws were emotionless. They wouldn't care.

Numerous palms struck the tribulation. Rumbles rang out.

The world changed color. Space collapsed.

The tribulation resisted, growing in strength as the power of the laws continued pouring into it. Outsiders were interfering with the punishment. The laws would not permit this. Numerous lightning bolts struck out at the palms, striking space itself apart before shooting toward the Immortal, Divine, Nether, Dragon, Devil, and Spirit Realms.

The laws could punish an entire era instead of only individuals. They would punish all who had broken the laws. The target did not matter. Even if it was a Pseudo Emperor, they would not hold back.

Above Empyrean Cloud, the old turtle had reverted to his original form: a massive turtle. With a rumble, lightning strikes descended upon him. The powerful crimson lightning bolts struck the old turtle's shell, creating numerous sparks in the air.

The old turtle roared furiously, "Are you still holding back? If Empyrean Cloud dies, the calamity of the Myriad Realms will arrive today."

A calamity from the Death Realm.

A calamity from the guardians.

The old turtle was determined to make everyone pay if Empyrean Cloud died.

At that, the air rippled as numerous Rivers of Time appeared in the sky. The projections of one Pseudo Emperor after another arrived. Instead of attacking from afar, they were finally making an appearance. Their powerful auras pressed down upon the world.

Boom!

All of them attacked.

At the same time, one powerful weapon after another appeared. Each of these weapons was incomparably powerful, and each had over 140 golden stripes. All of them were heaven weapons.

Once again, the old turtle roared furiously, "Great Qin King, act! Celestial chasm, primordial giant, five elemental, phoenix, and the other ancient races. Are you thinking of staying out of this? Stop dreaming!"

One powerful figure after another appeared outside the various ancient realms.

Some looked helpless, while some were cursing, "What the fuck is everyone doing? Is everyone too free? Is that why you keep causing trouble?"

Why must they provoke the ancient guardians? What madness was this? Were they happy now? Were they finally fearful of the consequences? If Empyrean Cloud ended up dead, how would they handle the consequences?

Just then, Tiangu's projection arrived with his coffin. With the coffin, he calmed a massive area before speaking, "If Empyrean Cloud dies, an Eternal from the immortal race will take her place—"

"You are unworthy!"

The old turtle grew even more furious.

Suddenly, he ignored the tribulation and tore space apart to arrive before the Immortal Realm. He said, "Today, I will break the Immortal Realm. All your immortal kings can die!"

Boom!

Once again, loud rumbles rocked the Immortal Realm. Shooting straight toward the realm entrance, the old turtle swatted an immortal king into mincemeat and said, "Today, I will connect a death tunnel in your Immortal Realm! Since the immortals are interested in this job, I will fulfill your wish!"

They wanted the job? Sure!

An ancient existence manifested in front of the realm entrance. It was Tiangu. He had finally appeared in his main body.

With a helpless sigh, he said, "Brother Grand Dream, please calm your fury." freēwēbnovel.com

That was merely a suggestion he had made on the spur of the moment. Unfortunately, that seemed to have further provoked the old turtle.

Just then, the Divine Pseudo Emperor's voice rang out, "Enough. Help us with the tribulation!"

What were they doing? Could they stop messing around at this time? If Empyrean Cloud were to really die, would the other guardians let this slide? It wasn't like they were mere puppets. They were all living, breathing beings. Together, they had guarded the death tunnels for a hundred thousand years. Was this a matter of replacing one after losing one?

What a joke.

If the guardians decided to go crazy, the myriad races would lose dozens of Invincibles before they could kill all the guardians off. After that, they would need to sacrifice even more Invincibles to replace the guardians. This could easily cost the myriad races over a hundred Invincibles. Would the immortals take the burden themselves?

Tiangu had indeed lived for too long. He could no longer view things with empathy.

Empyrean Cloud was not just a guardian. She was one of the thirty-six guardians. The guardians had a close relationship with each other. Would any of them accept losing one of them?

With a snort, the old turtle gave Tiangu a cold glare before leaving the realm entrance and reappearing above Empyrean Cloud City. While he was gone, Empyrean Cloud had been struck by one of the lightning bolts. At the moment, she was coughing blood. Just as the old turtle returned, yet another bolt of lightning was descending upon the city.

The old turtle considered that a punishment for her actions. He was feeling quite helpless. The silly lass had actually abandoned the death tunnel in the heat of the moment. He had not expected this.

He would help her, but he also needed her to realize the seriousness of her actions. Her brashness would really cause her death. The laws couldn't be disobeyed.

Not him. Not Empyrean Cloud. The myriad races could perhaps join hands to deny the heavenly laws. But they wouldn't help every single time.

This time, the immortals and divines were the ones who had attacked first. That was why they were willing to help. Otherwise, they would do nothing even if the Death Realm started attacking. All for the laws.

As for the invasion of the Death Realm, the myriad races naturally had a way of solving it. It was only a matter of price.

Boom!

The lightning bolts continued descending down on them while one River of Time after another unfurled in the sky. Even Great Qin King had arrived on his River of Time, spear in hand. Naturally, none of them had arrived in their main bodies.

Even so, the sheer number of experts involved was able to suppress the crimson clouds. However, their resistance seemed to have angered the crimson clouds further. More and more power of the laws poured into the clouds.

In the sky, the old turtle roared, "Use the assembly tokens and suppress the laws! Hurry!"

Nobody said anything.

That stoked the old turtle's fury. He roared, "Each of the ninety-nine ancient races has a token. I refuse to believe we don't have enough people to gather fifty tokens here!"

The Pseudo Nether Emperor coldly said, "Brother Grand Dream, the assembly tokens aren't omnipotent. Each activation will greatly exhaust the power of the laws."

Hearing that, the old turtle calmed down. He transformed into his humanoid form and ignored the lightning bolts striking his body.

He looked around and coldly said, "Are you refusing? So be it. Today, the Death Realm will return. Everyone, we have done all we can. Let the Myriad Realms...sink into chaos."

In the sky, the various stone statue projections started solidifying.

Heavendoom roared, "Boss! Stop wasting time! Let's fuck them up! Daofuses? What's the big deal? Grandstar, Empyrean Cloud, and I are more than enough to kill a Daofuse!"

He was tired of this. He soared into the sky in his main body and braced for battle. Down below, Tian He was instantly flooded with death qi. He swore inwardly. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Heavendoom reaching for the city.

Slowly, Heavendoom City transformed into a massive staff. Below, a black hole slowly took form. Instantly, the crimson clouds increased in intensity.

Heavendoom was a lunatic. The old turtle might have said those words to threaten the others, but Heavendoom was completely serious. He was really going to abandon his duty and fight to the death.

Heavendoom roared with laughter and said, "I am regaining my freedom! Wait for me, everyone! I'll kick your asses! Hahahaha! Freedom! I'm finally free!"

Slowly, the massive staff rose from the ground.

Right at that moment, one crimson token after another shot out of the various ancient realms. With the arrival of each token, the crimson clouds weakened somewhat. Three tokens. Five tokens. Ten tokens...

More and more tokens arrived to suppress the tribulation.

Before Heavendoom could fully lift his staff from the ground, the Pseudo Divine Emperor said, "Enough. Heavendoom, do you really want all the guardians to die alongside you?"

Just Empyrean Cloud alone was troubling enough. Why was Heavendoom causing trouble as well? Heavendoom looked around and snorted before lifting the staff entirely and depetrified. Then, he swung his staff at the white-haired divine king. This attack was much stronger than any of his previous attacks.

Before the white-haired divine king could hide in the void, the space around him collapsed, his River of Time snapped, and his body crumbled apart. Immediately after, Heavendoom transformed his staff back into a city and slammed it down at the death tunnel.

Then, he transformed back into a stone statue and returned to his city. With a sneer, he said, "That was merely an appetizer. As a mere seventh-degree Eternal, do you really think you're qualified to mess around with me? If you disagree, come at me. I'll beat you to death! If you're unhappy, feel free to interfere, Jiwu. Back when I affirmed my dao, your ancestor was still a Sunmoon. How dare you strut around like you're a big deal in front of me?"

Jiwu was the Divine Pseudo Emperor.

Due to Heavendoom's recklessness, the previously suppressed crimson clouds grew intense again.

That staff strike had destroyed the white-haired divine king's present body. After a long while, a River of Time appeared. Left with only two bodies, the pale white-haired divine king stepped out of the river with a pale expression and shock in his eyes.

With a sneer, Heavendoom said, "Back then, I nearly achieved Daofuse. If it wasn't for this bullshit tunnel, Jiwu wouldn't have the qualification to breath in front of me. How dare you provoke the holy cities?"

Absolute silence descended. Many myriad race Invincibles were overwhelmed with shock.

Ninth-degree Eternal. An expert only a step away from Daofuse. Heavendoom.

Heavendoom had always been overlooked. He had simply been inactive for too long. Even recently, Grandstar and Empyrean Cloud were the ones who had acted several times. However, their strength weren't particularly inspiring when compared against the likes of Great Qin King.

However, Heavendoom had destroyed the white-haired divine king's present body with a single strike. Clearly, he was already at Great Qin King's level.

He was unimaginably strong.

The many Invincibles stared at him in shock. That was a true top-tier Eternal. In that case, were there more of such existences among the thirty-six ancient statues?
