Suddenly.

Within the shrouded space under that Tiaoist Star Array, the space fluctuated.

Spatial molecules collapsed and reorganized.

In some inexplicable way, every strand of Space Law seemed to be under Ye Tian’s control.

Gu Tingxiao was so shocked he almost suffocated, only feeling as if his entire body had been bound onto a Wuyan Divine Mountain; if he wanted his body to move in the slightest, he had to drag that peerlessly heavy Divine Mountain along with him.

Moreover, the space before his eyes was flowing, squirming, with no fixed locations of cracks; Gu Tingxiao only felt that as he advanced, every inch forward, he had to forcibly smash apart pieces of space before he could move, and the difficulty had increased by at least a hundredfold.

In addition, terrifying pressure surged in from all directions, as if to crush him into shattered void.

"Fifth Rank!!! Fifth Rank Space Law?!"

Gu Tingxiao’s eyes widened as he stared deathly at Ye Tian, as if he had seen a Ghost God.

How was that possible?

Even back when he held the Human Demon Emperor throne, his comprehension of Space Law had not reached the Fifth Rank.

The Fifth Rank!

Wasn’t that the legendary realm that one only had a chance to comprehend within the Chaotic Domain?

Yet right now...

This brat was only around twenty!

Ye Tian had indeed comprehended Space Law to the Fifth Rank, and for that he had to thank the Sky Bridge.

The Sky Bridge entered his body.

In an instant, all those Laws, Dao Rhythm, Chaos insights, prehistoric patterns and so on that had been stripped away by the Creation Bloodline were completely fed back into Ye Tian.

Ye Tian had only used a small part of it to pile onto Space Law, and his comprehension of Space Law instantly leaped to an unprecedented height, stepping into the Fifth Rank in one stride, ascending in a single step.

Relying on a Fifth Rank Space Law alone, Ye Tian more or less had absolute confidence in instantly killing an existence at the Ninth Level of the Divine Martial Realm.

Far too easy.

Under the Fifth Rank Space Law, Ye Tian’s control over the space around him reached an inconceivable level.

With a single thought, space was born; with a single thought, space perished.

With a single thought, space reorganized; with a single thought, space burned.

With a single thought, space became mountains and seas; with a single thought, space shattered stone and void.

Simply the ultimate!

And this was only using a small portion of the Laws, Dao Rhythm, Chaos insights, prehistoric patterns and so on from the Sky Bridge; roughly eighty percent still remained stored within the Creation Bloodline.

Waiting for Ye Tian to draw upon it.

A massive windfall!!!

Just a single Sky Bridge, for Ye Tian, was enough to multiply his strength dozens of times over.

Utterly outrageous.

"Ahhhhhh..."

Gu Tingxiao struggled in agony!

He was finally about to reach the end of his life.

Gu Tingxiao looked toward Ye Tian, terror-stricken, fearful, and even with a hint of pleading.

"Ye Tian, spare me, I can give you more; I was once a Middle-level Emperor, I command three Great Tao Forbidden Techniques, I wield countless Divine Skills and Secret Techniques. If I live, I can hand all of these over to you!" Gu Tingxiao shouted loudly.

However, did these things have any allure for Ye Tian?

No.

Because, at Ye Tian’s side, was the Nine Heavens Goddess.

At this moment.

At the end of the Nine Heavens.

That writhing face of the Tao Will once again squirmed; if one looked closely, on that face there was regret, horror, anxiety, and furious exasperation!

Originally, it had calculated that Ye Tian would surely die, and then it would use the Tiaoist Star Array to trap the Human Demon, killing two birds with one stone, eliminating both people in one stroke.

Who would have thought...

It turned out completely different.

Gu Tingxiao was actually about to be slain by Ye Tian??????

The worst outcome the Tao Will had anticipated was merely mutual destruction between the Human Demon and Ye Tian.

But the result...

This result was downright disastrous.

Because both the Chaos Seed and the World Tree were going to fall into Ye Tian’s hands.

Unless, right now, it intervened to save Gu Tingxiao.

However, it could not do that!

Moreover, the Tao itself was not sure whether, with only a tiny fraction of its power available, it could even save Gu Tingxiao if it struck.

If it failed to save him and instead caused damage to its Origin, lowered the Tao’s grade, and attracted a Civilization Black Hole, the loss would outweigh the gain.

"Trash, Human Demon, you damned piece of trash!!!"

The Tao was furious to the extreme, and also somewhat self-reproachful.

It should never have used that "Emperor Trapping Star Array"; that way, when Gu Tingxiao had tried to escape earlier, he might at least have succeeded, and then the Chaos Seed and World Tree would not have fallen into Ye Tian’s hands.

Now it was too late to say anything.

"Once the World Tree and Chaos Seed fall into Ye Tian’s hands, his growth speed will definitely accelerate again! Fortunately, the World Tree and Chaos Seed can’t possibly be so easily controlled and refined, right? The Human Demon had to go through dozens of Reincarnations and spend over ten billion years just to barely gain control. Ye Tian, no matter how heaven-defying you are, there’s no way you can do it in three thousand or five thousand years, right?"

The Tao Will pondered.

Ye Tian was already frighteningly powerful right now.

If his strength continued to skyrocket and his Cultivation speed soared madly, then all those Children of Dao it had once seeded throughout the Great Thousand World would end up being hunted down by Ye Tian.

It was convinced that Ye Tian had definitely discovered the benefits of killing a Child of Dao; otherwise, he wouldn’t have insisted on killing Zhou Qing.

"Once all the Children of Dao are killed by him, my control over the Great Thousand World will plunge to rock bottom. No!!! That can’t happen! Absolutely not!"

The Tao Will roared inwardly in madness: "This must not be allowed!"

Then, the Tao Will raised its Dao Eye and looked toward the Undying Imperial Court.

It gazed toward that "Emperor Trapping Star Array."

Gradually, it calmed down again.

"He won’t be getting out of the ’Emperor Trapping Star Array’ in a short time; I can make some arrangements first."

The Tao Will formed a new idea, first to do everything it could to trap Ye Tian for as long as possible.

"The era of Great Emperors ought to arrive as well."

The Tao Will ultimately made a mad decision.
