Chapter 455: Chapter 55: Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor, Power of the Celestial Ship (Part 3)

"It seems the dimensional rift here can now completely accommodate the passing of a Great Emperor!"

Zhou Chen remained calm. Although the five Demon Emperors were terrifying, he had a way to deal with them. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

However, now that the rift can accommodate a Demon Emperor, a full-scale war between the Celestial Demon Realm and the Celestial Essence Continent is bound to break out.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The three thousand divine demons roared in unison, and terrifying power poured into the Three Thousand Gods and Demons Map.

You could see the Three Thousand Gods and Demons Map bloom with endless divine light.

These divine lights:

Some transformed into Heaven-Opening Giant Axes, splitting down vertically.

Some transformed into Spatial Blades, cutting through space.

Some transformed into World-Ending Divine Spears, piercing through the heavens and earth.

Some transformed into Heaven-Slaying Sabers, slashing gods and executing demons.

...

The five Demon Emperors were slightly startled, but remained unfazed.

They were prepared for an ambush when they charged over.

The Ox Demon Emperor transformed into a towering ox demon, roaring at the sky. His horns, which Zhou Chen had severed, grew back, reaching towards the heavens.

The tall, thin Demon Emperor full of eyes transformed into a centipede a hundred thousand long. This centipede was covered not only with legs but also eyes.

He was the Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor.

His eyes were particularly formidable.

Suddenly, all the eyes on his body fused into one, transforming into an overwhelmingly terrifying demon eye.

"Five-Colored Divine Light!"

Even within the Celestial Ship, Zhou Chen felt the terror of this attack and without hesitation, used his newly fused ultimate weapon.

On the Celestial Ship, a Five-Colored Feather Fan waved lightly, a streak of five-colored light flashed, and before the Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor could launch an attack, he was swept away.

This was the Five-Colored Divine Light Fan.

Originally an Emperor’s Weapon of the ancestor of the Peacock Race, Emperor Peacock. It was crafted from five tail feathers containing Lifebound Divine Techniques.

It contained the Five-Colored Divine Light.

After obtaining Princess Peacock, Zhou Chen helped awaken much of the Demon Emperor bloodline within the Peacock Race, but gaining the clan’s supreme treasure, the Emperor’s Weapon, seemed impossible.

Zhou Chen promised to help the Peacock Emperor ascend to the Great Emperor status and invited him into the Celestial Ship to cultivate, where the innate Spiritual Qi made practice much more efficient.

If Zhou Chen integrated the Emperor’s Weapon, the Five-Colored Divine Light Fan, into the vessel, opening up the Five-Colored Divine Light Realm, the Peacock Emperor would certainly achieve Great Emperor status through cultivation in that realm.

Even other members of the Peacock Race would significantly enhance their cultivation, gaining tremendous opportunities inside.

Thus.

Zhou Chen successfully acquired the Peacock Race’s guardian Emperor’s Weapon and integrated it into the Flying Ship, turning it into an auxiliary unit.

Five-Colored Divine Light Realm.

The Peacock Emperor and some direct descendant geniuses of the Peacock Race were cultivating inside when suddenly, space trembled, and the silhouette of a Demon Emperor appeared.

"What’s going on?"

The Peacock Emperor was startled, quickly moving to shield his people.

However, the Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor, swept into the ship by the Five-Colored Divine Light, could not stir up any trouble, as the powers from several realms within the ship suppressed him, chains of order instantly piercing through his body.

Once inside the Celestial Ship, unless one’s power vastly exceeded the ship’s, they were nothing but lambs to the slaughter.

Now, with over ten worlds flourishing rapidly, the power of the Celestial Ship increased day by day, a mere Demon Emperor was nothing.

Outside, he might contend with the ship, but once inside, he was like meat on a chopping board.

Swish!

The Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor was sealed and dragged into the Life Furnace, disappearing from the Five-Colored Divine Light Realm.

"A Demon Emperor was suppressed just like that?"

The Peacock Emperor’s eyes widened; as a peak Demon Emperor, he knew of the Celestial Demon Realm and understood that a Demon Emperor was akin to a Great Emperor.

Yet a Demon Emperor was suppressed before him, without the slightest resistance.

Especially the moment the Celestial Ship gathered power to suppress the Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor, the Peacock Emperor felt an overwhelming, heart-stopping fear.

He realized that if such power fell upon him, he might be instantly crushed, his life and soul extinguished.

"Truly terrifying!"

Thinking of how he had already allied with Zhou Chen, the Peacock Emperor felt thrilled and joyous.

Yet the joys and sorrows of people differ.

Compared to the Peacock Emperor’s joyful relief, the Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor was gripped by sheer terror, never imagining being dragged here shortly after arriving on the Celestial Essence Continent.

And shortly afterward, he was stripped of all power, thrust into a peculiar place.

Here.

He felt an instinctive, overwhelming dread.

The next moment.

Gray, misty roots entered his body like needles, crazily consuming his flesh and power.

"No!"

The Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor was terrified as unprecedented fear overtook him.

As a Demon Emperor, he never thought he’d become someone else’s nourishment.

But the Life Furnace was formed from the roots of the World Tree fused with the ship. These roots were transformed World Tree roots, capable of devouring void chaos energy, even rooting into chaos itself.

Not to mention a Demon Emperor.

Feeling his energy draining like a breached river, the Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor struggled desperately, even attempting to self-destruct.

But it was too late.

Under the Life Furnace’s terrifying devouring refinement, he was like a piece of fat dropped into a boiling pot, quickly withering away.

"No.... get away..."

"You... stop it... ah!"

"Spare me!"

....

"Thousand-Eyed Demon Pupil, detected. May fuse with the Celestial Ship. Fuse?"

"Fuse!"

Zhou Chen answered without hesitation. Though he had not witnessed the Thousand-Eyed Demon Pupil’s power, it was certainly extraordinary, and all Emperor’s Weapons were invaluable.

The Thousand-Eyed Demon Pupil fused with the Celestial Ship, creating a new realm—the Thousand Eyes Realm.

The Thousand-Eyed Demon Pupil transformed into an open heaven Divine Artifact, its essence and power comprehensively enhanced.

Now the Red Dust Celestial Ship’s total units reached seventeen, with the World Tree sprouting seventeen leaves.

"Just right to test the Thousand-Eyed Demon Pupil’s power!"

Zhou Chen looked at the remaining four Demon Emperors frantically attacking the Three Thousand Gods and Demons Map, trying to break out.

"Thousand-Eyed Demon Pupil, lock onto the Ox Demon Emperor!"

"Blast the hell out of him!"

Zhou Chen commanded.

On the Red Dust Celestial Ship, a massive pupil as black as a black hole emerged, with countless intertwining light beams that were bizarre and wondrous.

Surging energy from the Thousand Eyes Realm flooded in, releasing a black beam of light like a world-ending ray.

The beam was as thick as a mountain and incredibly fast.

It seemingly crossed time and space in an instant.

"Not good!"

The Ox Demon Emperor, who was attacking the Three Thousand Gods and Demons Map, felt a jolt of dread. Before he could react, the black beam pierced through his chest.

A charred hole, a hundred feet in diameter, appeared on the Ox Demon Emperor’s chest, blood gushing, piercing through his entire body.

"How is this possible?"

"Isn’t this the Thousand-Eyed Demon Light of the Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor?"

"Could the Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor have fallen?"

The other three Demon Emperors were horrified, as a chill raced from their feet to their skulls.

The Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor was stronger than any of them.

Especially his Thousand-Eyed Demon Light, incredibly fearsome.

And now, in less than ten breaths, had the Thousand-Eyed Demon Emperor fallen?

...
