At that moment, Yun Xiao had reached the Establishment Anima Tribulation Realm, with the Mortal Dust Devil Blood having entered the Night God Realm.
Uniting this with the Buddha's Treasure Spirit after transcending the tribulation, Yun Xiao's combat power soared to the highest peak of the Great Dao Celestial Realm.
Even if slightly slower than the Divine Desolation Physique and Mortal Dust Devil Blood, Yun Xiao shattered five stages in one go, furiously ascending the ladder of the Celestial Court.
His adversaries fell into the same old fallacies once more. They knew he was formidable, but never imagined him to be this formidable.
This included the abruptly deceased Northstar Sword Devil!
He too knew Yun Xiao could end him. So, he stirred the crowd, downplaying Yun Xiao's true strength, waiting for others to swarm in so he could flee to the Taiwei Imperial Palace.
Who would have thought that the Sovereign of the Immortal Sword Court, with a single Flying Sword passing through the crowd, would have his soul severed on the spot?
His instant death sent shockwaves through the minds of all the celestial officials present.
"He's more fearsome than the Great Mother!"
In that moment, all pride was shattered, every supreme Immortal forgot their lofty statuses, reduced to worms under the shadows of fear and reverence, faces ashen, scattering in chaos.Phrases such as "Kill!", "This brat is nothing!", "Don't be afraid!", "For the White Emperor!", and "Blood for the imperial throne!" filled the air. Yet, in reality, each official fled more decisively than the last.
Their twisted faces were a mirror of their distorted hearts, drunk on incense offerings.
The Celestial Court, with its supreme command, postured in luxury without ever facing a real challenge. Today, the Great Mother and Yun Xiao dealt them hard blows, tearing off their masks of false virtue to reveal the bloodlust and cowardice within.
Whether Rank 4 Immortals or Rank 1 Sovereigns like the Northstar Sword Devil and Dragon Tiger Sovereign, under the crushing force of destruction, their demeanor of panic and abandon were the same.
"Don't panic! He's probably spent his energy, let's attack together! If we bombard him with Sword Souls, Life Sigils, and celestial weapons, even the Great Mother would fall!"
The Dragon Tiger Sovereign's roar steadied their hearts for a moment before he burrowed into the ground, fleeing in a circuitous route.
He even realized that even the Taiwei Imperial Palace might not be safe.
The death of the Northstar Sword Devil bled his heart.
All those dismissive claims of Yun Xiao's cultivation being below theirs were for others to hear. He knew better than anyone that Yun Xiao was a monster born of the celestial path, a sure death for anyone who faced him.
"Since he's a product of the Immortal Asylum, only the Immortal Asylum can destroy him. It's up to His Majesty to take action. I'd better avoid the sharp edge and save some face for the Heavenly Palace!"
Burying beneath the ground, hiding from view, the Dragon Tiger Sovereign felt a hint of safety.
However, in that instant, the golden soil and rocks around him burst open, and a girl in a white dress crashed through, appearing before the Dragon Tiger Sovereign with eyes of thundering rage and blazing fire, her body enveloped in white lightning and flames, her black hair whipping about like that of a celestial deity!
"Uncle, rushing to be reborn, are you?"
Her voice, delicate and soft, sounded like a tiger's roar, vibrating the ears of the Dragon Tiger Sovereign.
"Seventh Princess!" The Dragon Tiger Sovereign gritted his teeth, and in his hands suddenly appeared a symbol of the dragon and tiger. The Life Sigil transformed into a dragon and tiger, rushing and biting towards Divine Dawn.
"You really should die." Divine Dawn's eyes sprayed out thunder and fire. Suddenly, a pagoda appeared in her hand. Grasping the spire, she wielded the Primal Pagoda as if it were a massive mace, smashing it down upon the Dragon Tiger Sovereign.
With a thunderous crash, the Primordial Pagoda's force, unmatched and tyrannical, swept across like a storm, instantly shattering the Dragon Tiger Sigil and smashing down upon the head of the Dragon Tiger Sovereign.
With a muffled grunt, a supreme Immortal in the Night God Realm was blasted away by Divine Dawn's overwhelming power, blood spurting from every pore, instantly turning him into a blood-drenched figure.
"Stop, I wish to redeem myself. To help you eradicate the scourge of the incense offerings, you need hands!" The Dragon Tiger Sovereign's face twisted in desperation, making his last stand.
ROAR! The girl in the white dress roared, her form like a ball of thunder and fire, her tiger eyes wide, a character for King on her forehead, and her gaze filled with murderous intent, uttering no words, only seeking her opponent's life.
The White Tiger, the master of slaughter, was fully embodied in Divine Dawn.
"You…!" The Dragon Tiger Sovereign's face twisted in agony, desperately trying to crawl towards a crowd for safety.
But in that instant, a blood dragon suddenly plunged from the sky, entwining itself around the Dragon Tiger Sovereign.
The dragon scales transformed into countless little blood dragons, numbering in the tens of thousands, biting into every part of his body—eyes, ears, mouth, nose, skin—thick blood mist spraying out!
"GAGHH!!" The Dragon Tiger Sovereign cried out in agony, his body trembling uncontrollably.
"What are you doing?" Divine Dawn suddenly halted, looking up to the sky.
At the end of the blood dragon was Yun Xiao, floating in mid-air, surrounded by splashes of celestial blood.
"Snatching food from the tiger's mouth." Yun Xiao chuckled, and a fierce fire surged from the blood dragon, engulfing the Dragon Tiger Sovereign's body.
A Rank 1 Sovereign, the overseer of the Imperial Treasury, was evaporated under the blaze of the blood dragon and refined by Yun Xiao.
"Ugh, so annoying!" Divine Dawn bit her lip, her little tiger teeth drawing blood, clearly infuriated by Yun Xiao's audacious move.
She could not touch Yun Xiao. So, she directed all her fury at the celestial officials around her.
Thunderous roars erupted as she burst from beneath the earth. On her delicate arms, she swung a massive flame meteor hammer in one hand and a thunder meteor hammer in the other. Controlled with deadly precision, these Primordial Doom Stars struck like lightning and fell like meteors, devastating the battlefield with their raw power.
Each strike shook the Heavenly Palace, opening vast fissures in the ground. Palaces crumbled and smoke billowed as screams echoed in the chaos.
The cracked earth was littered with the bodies of celestial officials, smashed into a bloody pulp by her overwhelming force. Regardless of their dignified titles and the followers they commanded, or the legends they inspired among mortals, now they were reduced to nothing more than flesh.
Hearth Gods, Thunder Dukes, Love Gods… none were spared. All were stripped of their dignified exteriors. Beneath the pure brutality of her onslaught, they were reduced to whimpering wretches.
Compared to Divine Dawn's cruelty, Yun Xiao's kills were like those of an artist. The celestial officials who died by his hand did so cleanly, without a drop of blood left behind.
The youth, with a sword and umbrella, strolled through the chaos like a wolf among sheep. Wherever he went, celestial officials ceased to exist, their souls scattered, their deaths a dark art form.
Thousands of Flying Swords, Life Sigils, and celestial treasures attacked, all repelled by his umbrella.
His own Flying Sword pierced through ranks unerringly—300 strikes, 300 deaths.
Most fearsome was his manifested Creator Immortal spirit. The Buddha's Treasure Spirit attacked and defended as one with Yun Xiao. Where his sword passed, spirits were torn asunder, cruelly dispatched in the blink of an eye.
Now, Yun Xiao moved like a shadow of death, his physical form and spirit acting in a lethal concert. His blade swept through the crowd, unstoppable.
Yun Xiao's Blood Base was already in the Night God Realm, placing him at the same cultivation as those Rank 1 Sovereigns. So, it was hardly a surprise that no one could withstand a single strike from his sword.
All the remaining Sovereigns refused to engage Yun Xiao, ducking away while convincing others to face him first. However, he hunted them down relentlessly, employing the strategy of taking out the leaders first!
Explosions continued from Divine Dawn's side—a chaotic blend of tiger roars, thunder, and earthquakes—so loud that one might think a great warlord dominated the battlefield, not a young girl.
In contrast, Yun Xiao's side was eerily silent, but the ground was littered with countless bodies, fallen in absolute terror. Not even a fly could pass over his territory and remain whole.
Under such ruthless slaughter, the remaining celestial officials lost all will to fight.
No more could any voice rally them; confidence had evaporated.
Their hearts filled with fear, they scattered in all directions, no longer seeing the Taiwei Imperial Palace as a refuge but hoping to escape the bounds of the Heavenly Palace, even the Great Dao Celestial Realm, to avoid the storm.
But just then, an endless ocean appeared above the Heavenly Palace, filling the inner sanctum of the Sacred Emperor Barrier and transforming it into a marsh-like sea of confinement, thick and unyielding, blocking all paths of escape.
"Corpse demon..."
The appearance of this confining sea only deepened the despair and panic among the terrified officials.
