Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City

Ye Ling stood poised in the sky, reborn from his chrysalis, his transformation complete.

The tremendous increase in strength, the sublimation of his physique, even the perfect metamorphosis of his blood, bones, and cells, all brought about a heaven-and-earth shaking change in Ye Ling's power.

The Nine Nether Emperor Technique provided Ye Ling with an endless source for cultivation, along with a formidable follow-up of Spiritual Power.

And the Extinction Golden Body granted Ye Ling an almost invincible defense, enough to drive one to despair.

As for Divine Skills, how could an Immortal Emperor who once dominated the Nine Heavens and shook the Two Realms lack powerful divine abilities?

Ye Ling at present, to use a term from gaming, was a combination of both offense and defense, peerless in his skills, and with practically no cooldowns—a bug that was unsolvable.

Qing Emperor, hovering in the half-sky, shook his head, "You, my friend, are a true freak. When I obtained the Extinction Golden Body, I only cultivated it to the Thirdfold and then spent ten thousand years stuck there before breaking through to the Fourthfold."

"You, on the other hand, managed to break through to the Fourthfold in just one day. Are you trying to anger me to death?"

Ye Ling chuckled, "Can't help it, this is my capital—my talent is unmatched in the Three Realms; who dares compare with me?"

Qing Emperor shook his head; this fellow was always like this, but he did indeed have the capital. With his rapid progression, he had quickly surpassed everyone in the Immortal Realm and was listed among the Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperors.

The Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperor was not just a title given to Ye Ling; it also represented a division of realms.

Within the Immortal Emperor Realm, there were Ninthfold realms. By surviving a tribulation, one could break through to the next level. As for the Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperor, it was clear that they had broken through nine tribulations—an existence of incredible strength.

Beyond the scant few who possessed the determination to transcend the Heavenly Dao and survive the terrifying Phoenix Supreme Tribulation, the Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperor was the ruler of the Immortal Realm.

And how frightening Ye Ling's strength must be for him to be called a Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperor was evident.

"By the way, old man, tell me, what exactly is this broken piece of brick? I've been contemplating it for quite some time and haven't figured out anything!" Ye Ling said, annoyed as he took out the black brick.

Upon hearing this, Qing Emperor's beard bristled, and his eyes widened in anger, "You are an esteemed Immortal Emperor, and you don't know the origin of this black brick?"

Ye Ling was stunned for a moment, then something came to mind, and he pointed at the black brick with trembling fingers, "Old fellow, don't tell me this black brick is your Godslayer Stone!"

The Godslayer Stone, one of Qing Emperor's unique Immortal Artifacts, had no other mysterious properties except its great mass and extreme hardness. It was said that once, in a fit of rage, Qing Emperor swung the Godslayer Stone and overturned ten Immortal Emperors, shocking the Immortal Realm.

"You've gone mad! Why did you put this Godslayer Stone into a black hole?" Ye Ling asked incredulously.

Qing Emperor clenched his teeth, his face flushing red with anger, "Do you think I wanted this? I sensed the black hole's emergence, so I placed the Godslayer Stone inside my abode, but then it got sucked in by the black hole!"

"Give it back quickly! I'll find you a fine Immortal Artifact!" Qing Emperor demanded, face blackened as he reached out his hand.

After hearing this, Ye Ling immediately put the black brick into his storage ring, "Yeah, old fellow, you still want it back? Don't you know my nickname is 'Iron Rooster'? Not a feather plucked! Once it's in my hands, it's mine—don't even think about taking it!"

Qing Emperor gritted his teeth, "The Extinction Golden Body was given to you by me, and even the evil dragon incarnation of the Long Emperor was handed to you by me, and yet you dare to covet my Godslayer Stone?"

Ye Ling laughed lightly, "All right, all right. With the position you've chosen, dreaming about fighting someone is just a dream. What's the use of the Godslayer Stone to you? As for me, being reborn and cultivating anew, I need it quite a bit."

Qing Emperor dismissed him with a wave of his hand, "Just roll away from me, I can't stand the sight of you! When you return to the Immortal Realm, give me back my Godslayer Stone, or else I'll destroy your abode!"

"Pah, am I someone who gets scared easily? Go inquire, who in the Immortal Heavens dares to threaten me? So what if you're the Qing Emperor, wait until I survive the Phoenix Supreme Tribulation; I'll pluck all your white feathers!"

Ye Ling huffed, "Damn you, Qing Emperor, daring to threaten me. You should know I hold grudges, and you can kiss that Godslayer Stone goodbye."

"Such a treasure, once in my hands, there's no way I'd ever spit it back out. What wishful thinking."

"Get lost, and make it quick!" roared the Qing Emperor, sweeping his hand. Ye Ling vanished from that world in an instant.

"He's driving me insane, if I keep talking to him, I'm afraid I really won't be able to restrain myself from descending from the Immortal Realm and flattening him with my palm!" The Qing Emperor panted angrily, his mustache all bristled up.

To think, the Qing Emperor, who holds such a high position in the Immortal Realm where even the leaders of both the Immortal Heavens tremble with fear at displeasing him, ends up turning blue with rage because of Ye Ling, puffing his mustache, glaring his eyes, almost flipping his Immortal Realm abode in a frenzy to go down and fight Ye Ling to the death.

"Forget it, forget it, I should stay composed, can't get angry, it's not good for my health," the Qing Emperor said with a slight smile, struggling to calm his mood.

But, at the thought of the Godslayer Stone, the Qing Emperor felt like his heart was bleeding.

However, the Qing Emperor understood that the Godslayer Stone ending up in Ye Ling's hands might just be fate. Otherwise, how could it be sucked away from his abode by a black hole?

In Lanshan Village, dozens of powerhouses stood on the spacious playground, a stark contrast to the dense crowd from a few days ago.

A great tomb had claimed countless strong beings, dealing irreplaceable losses to many forces, with some forces completely wiped out.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Those who managed to make it to the final stage were the ones who had undergone incredible transformations, undoubtedly the rising stars of the future.

Ye Ling's figure appeared quietly. Shenfeng and others immediately gathered around him while other Huaxia powerhouses looked at Ye Ling with gleaming eyes.

This guy was way too strong, his presence alone had deterred all adversaries. Stay updated via empire

"Where is the Saintess?" It was the first question Ye Ling asked.

The only ones left on the playground were Huaxia powerhouses; all the foreign superpower wielders had vanished, and the Saintess was gone too.

"The Saintess and the others have all left. They'll likely leave Huaxia as quickly as possible."

"After all, they need to report back to their organizations. The ones who suffered heavy losses need to think of a way to cope."

"Moreover, the organizations that tried to assassinate the Saintess must have returned to prepare their next move. I'm sure the Pope, that old coot, won't let this slide."

"The Saintess represents The Holy See, and an attempt on her life is akin to declaring war on The Holy See. As a force that has always been invincible to the world, they will not miss this opportunity to assert their power."

Shenfeng spoke slowly, then suddenly let out a mischievous laugh, "Ye Ling, tell me the truth, what's your relationship with the Saintess?"

"Yeah, I noticed something fishy too. That Saintess looks like she's taken a liking to someone. If you say there's nothing going on between you two, I wouldn't believe it." Li Tianhao also laughed, looking like a cunning shaman.

Ye Ling curled his lip, "Cut it out, as if the Saintess, just a normal woman, could escape my grasp!"

Shenfeng and Li Tianhao were taken aback, then burst out laughing, and just at that moment, an urgent Bureau of Superpowers operative rushed over, with a serious look on his face.

"Director! Something big has happened!"

Everyone's heart skipped a beat, especially Ye Ling, who had a foreboding feeling.
