Eternal Holy Emperor-Chapter 1223 - 1101: The Storm Is Coming!

But now that the Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Kings have left with the Combat Saint King, the Ancient Divine Palace has imperceptibly seized the power of the empire. Everything happened so quickly, so subtly, that many people were caught off guard as it all unfolded.

Moreover, without the Emperor Dynasty Heavenly Kings, the Nine Great Empires are no match for the oldest force that has been rising and falling on the Sovereign Continent for countless years.

And not long ago, the Nine Great Empires jointly announced that from now on, no one shall be worshiped except for the true Supreme God—the Ancient God!

Even all the major forces in the world must erect statues of the Ancient God within their realms. Anyone who dares to defy this will face the most terrible punishment.

In just a few days, several forces with Saints presiding over them were completely leveled due to defying the Dharma Decree of the Ancient Divine Palace, under spurious charges, including the presiding Saints, all wiped out overnight.

The world shivers.

All major forces know that the Ancient Divine Palace is no longer the transcendent ancient power it once was; it has become more domineering.

All the mighty in the world are helpless and sigh, as henceforth, the world must submit to the yoke of the Ancient Divine Palace and heed its orders.

Although many people in the world are unwilling, since even the Nine Great Empires have been occupied, what force, what person can contend against the oldest force, the Ancient Divine Palace?

Suddenly, people recalled a heroic figure, so strong and domineering, who once silenced heaven and earth with his might, causing the Nine Great Empires to avoid confrontation, even forcing the Ancient Divine Palace to retreat.

Combat Saint King, a peerless Heavenly Pride from another world, who once single-handedly stood against the Ancient Divine Palace.

He was a milestone of a personage, but unfortunately, he led many powerful beings of the Ancient God Continent to the other side of the Ancient Emperor Continent decades ago, and now, after many silent years, it is feared, like those sages of old, he too might have been buried in the Chaos Sea.

As time passes, people have gradually accepted the reality of the Ancient Divine Palace’s dominion over the world.

On this day, like any other typical day, equally calm, people just as numbly worship the Ancient God.

Only on this day, on what had been concluded as a fixed situation, did upheaval occur.

Boom—

Outside Tianxu Imperial City, suddenly, there were surges of Supreme Qi Mechanisms exploding, overwhelming and enveloping the entire Tianxu Imperial City.

Faintly visible, above the Imperial City, the void crumbled, where a series of figures materialized, all entwined with Supreme Qi Mechanisms, rumbling throughout the entire Tianxu Imperial City, capturing everyone’s attention.

When they truly perceived these people, everyone gasped sharply, for these dozen individuals were all experts in the Saintly Treasure Realm, and at least of Heroic Lord Level, with their Qi Mechanisms being vast, each like a god descending upon the earth, astonishingly.

And when clearly seen, everyone’s eyes widened in awe.

Because these individuals were the strong Royal Family members who had left the empire years ago, known to all, such as the person at the front right, shockingly a Saint Master Level Prince of the Tianxu Dynasty, who had immense influence in the empire.

He and several other Saint Master Level experts of the dynasty stood behind an even more invincible presence, looking strikingly familiar, akin to the founding ancestor engraved in the empire’s statues, shockingly the Dynasty’s Heavenly King Ancestor.

Upon witnessing this scene, the entire city was dumbfounded, accompanied by waves of shock.

The entire city was in turmoil, the world was in shock!

The empire’s powerhouses, gone for decades, now returned intact and more powerful, directly shadowing the imperial palace.

At this moment, the Dynasty’s Heavenly King led the returning strong of the dynasty, speaking coldly: "I have returned, do you not hurry to come out and welcome me?"

All major forces in the city held their breath, as the former strong of the dynasty returned one by one, and now, how the strong of the Ancient Divine Palace, who hold the power of the Tianxu Dynasty, will face all this.

A group of strong figures flew out from the imperial palace; none were Royal Family strong but had unfamiliar faces, and some familiar, from the Ancient Divine Palace, all changed color at this scene, even opening the palace’s Heavenly Curtain at once, forming a bowl shape to cover the entire imperial palace for defense.

This scene was seen by many, who all changed their colors, many felt a sense of an impending storm, fearing an intense battle would soon unfold.

Heavenly King Tianxu’s eyes were ice-cold, gazing at the completely unfamiliar strong within the palace, the many strong of the Tianxu Dynasty behind him slightly altered in expression, all understanding.

Heavenly King Tianxu spoke coldly: "Open the Heavenly Curtain, I may not kill you, but if you still intend to resist stubbornly, then I do not mind a carnage."

The strong of the Ancient Divine Palace within the palace all changed colors, but snorted coldly: "Who are you to dare impersonate Heavenly King Tianxu and the Royal Family, who all followed the Combat Saint King to the Ancient Emperor Continent and cannot be on the Ancient God Continent."

Hearing this, many felt it made sense, as historically, even if a Heavenly King went to the Ancient Emperor Continent, once entering the Chaos Sea, it was basically a one-way trip, now just after a few decades, Heavenly King Tianxu and others returned, it couldn’t help but surprise people, it’s too fast.

Heavenly King Tianxu snorted coldly: "It was indeed those people from the Ancient Divine Palace, taking advantage of my absence to launch a coup, seizing the power of my empire."

An Ancient Divine Palace Saint Master snorted coldly: "I don’t understand what you’re talking about, our Ancient Divine Palace has always been indifferent to worldly matters, and our entering the imperial palace this time is merely to assist the Royal Family. But you, I don’t know what beings you are, dare you impersonate Heavenly King Tianxu and other strong of the Tianxu Dynasty, intending to launch a coup to seize the power of the empire."

Hearing this, even others in the Imperial City frowned, the Ancient Divine Palace has actually fallen to this point, turning around to slander the true Royal Family. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Only they dare not retort, fearing retaliation from the Ancient Divine Palace, as today’s Ancient Divine Palace is not what it used to be, much more domineering, with dissonance frequently leading to massacre, with several powerful forces erased.

"Ridiculous." Heavenly King Tianxu’s face grew ever colder: "Didn’t expect you people from the Ancient Divine Palace to be so glib, do you really not know what has happened on the other side of the Chaos Sea in the Ancient Emperor Continent?"

This made all the strong of the Ancient Divine Palace change colors, they naturally knew these were the true Royal Family of the Tianxu Dynasty, also curious as to why they returned so quickly.

Knowing the Chaos Sea is perilous beyond measure, through the ages, except for that Ancient Great Power of their Ancient Divine Palace, no one successfully returned, how they returned has always made them curious.

Regarding news from the other side of the Ancient Emperor Continent, they had no idea.

But they persisted with a cold snort: "We don’t know who you are, but you must know we represent the Ancient Divine Palace, our palace’s Ancient Great Power has emerged, do you really dare to contend against our Supreme Ability?"

These words caused people’s colors to change; the Ancient Divine Palace’s Supreme Ability is still alive, was it not seated down?

That was a Supreme Ability who truly crossed the Chaos Sea and returned in ancient times, so strong it’s beyond words, if still in the world, would there be any rivals?

Only Heavenly King Tianxu smiled coldly, and the other strong of the dynasty did the same, saying: "Even if that Eternal Great Ability should emerge today, it would be useless, in this world, there is no one who cannot confront him."

They all have the greatest trump card—

Combat Saint King, the owner of the Supreme Great Sect Holy Domain, fearing nothing.

The strong of the Ancient Divine Palace only sneered coldly; they didn’t believe anyone in the world could match the Great Power of the Ancient Divine Palace, not even the invincible Old Knight of the Demon God Ruins.

Although Heavenly King Tianxu remained unchanged in expression, he secretly transmitted a message to the Royal Family behind him, saying: "Inform the Saint King, there are unusual happenings in the Imperial City, some changes might occur."

The royal strong behind changed colors but followed the instruction, communicating through the Communication Jade left by the Combat Saint King.

Heavenly King Tianxu sighed lightly, perceiving a great storm is about to descend!
