The godlike figure gazed down from high in the sky.
As if surrounded by eyes from all directions, it scrutinized the group without restraint.
Finally, its gaze settled on the White Emperor.
"So this is the remnant of darkness, isn't there supposed to be one more?" asked the Great Emperor in a calm voice.
"I slew him," Chen Xia replied nonchalantly.
The Great Emperor paused, then spoke again.
"The dark remnants arrived half a day ago, including a second-level quasi-emperor. From what you're saying, that quasi-emperor didn't survive half a day. Which of you killed him?"
"Huh? There was?" Emperor Capital looked confused, as he hadn't seen any quasi-emperor when he arrived.
"I killed him," Chen Xia stood up, a slight smile on his face. He gazed at the Great Emperor without fear, and instead said with a laugh:
"Can you come down to talk? I'm not used to standing below others."
"Those who are not Great Emperors can only remain below," the Great Emperor replied calmly, then continued:
"In that case, I'll take this remaining dark remnant away. I need to extract some useful information from his soul."
As he finished speaking, he attempted to grab the White Emperor from afar.
A burst of sword intent suddenly arose, forcefully cutting off this remote grasp.
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
Chen Xia, still smiling slightly, responded:
"This is the Blue Sky Sword Sea, and I am the sect master of the Blue Sky Sword Sea. If you want to take someone away from here, you need my permission."
The Great Emperor fell silent for a moment, his voice sinking a bit as he asked:
"Has slaying a second-level quasi-emperor made you lose sight of your boundaries? Do you think you're now a peak existence who can speak to me like this?"
Chen Xia nodded and uttered three words:
"Old bastard."
Seeing that both sides had fallen out, Emperor Capital didn't hesitate. He pointed directly at the Great Emperor and cursed:
"You damn piece of shit, come down if you dare! See if Brother Chen doesn't beat you up! He'll beat you into a mutant!"
He truly dared to curse, embodying loyalty and fearlessness.
"You two, I'll give you one last chance. Don't seek death!" The Great Emperor's tone now carried a hint of anger.
"Fuck your mother! How dare you speak to my Brother Chen like that? You've never been beaten up before, have you? Right, Brother Chen?!"
Chen Xia's expression remained calm. He lightly pointed forward, condensing three million sword intents into a single point, then looked up at the Great Emperor and said:
"If you want to fight, then come. I won't hand over the White Emperor to you."
After these words, the sky suddenly darkened. Countless trees grew down from the heavens, instantly absorbing all the spiritual energy around and pressing down towards the Blue Sky Sword Sea.
Chen Xia showed no fear. He took a light step forward, the River of Time unfurling behind him, three million sword intents before him.
From the bottom of the Blue Sky Sword Sea came a clear dragon's roar, seemingly piercing through space.
Then, a dragon's head as large as the entire Blue Sky Sword Sea emerged, advancing alongside the River of Time and the flying sword intents.
Finally, the Supreme Heavenly Thunder, carried upon the flying swords, surged forth with killing intent.
This was the power of four realms!
The Great Emperor in the sky only had one realm, but it was a certified realm.
The difference between certification and comprehension was like heaven and earth.
The trees in the sky grew larger and more numerous, eventually replacing the entire sky, turning it into a canopy of trees.
The sky was trees.
Below were four realms.
As countless divine abilities were about to clash, their aura spread out first, affecting almost the entire star region.
Inside a small house.
Qiu Li looked up, his brows furrowed, staring in disbelief towards the Blue Sky Sword Sea. He actually sensed a trace of the Great Emperor's aura?!
Chi Yu couldn't sit still and transformed into a divine phoenix, rushing towards the Blue Sky Sword Sea.
The others remained in the small house, their expressions flickering uncertainly.
The great saints in the star region all emerged, looking towards the Blue Sky Sword Sea with shock and doubt, unclear why a Great Emperor's aura had appeared.
Even more terrifying was that the aura of the other person was not inferior to the Great Emperor's, seemingly on equal footing!
The tree sky and the four realms finally collided. Endless ripples spread out at this moment, shaking the entire star region, causing a momentary scarcity of spiritual energy. Some low-level cultivators were even stunned by the shock.
Chen Xia stood on the celestial dragon's head, carrying sword intent and charging at the forefront, destroying countless trees as he rushed towards the highest point.
Emperor Capital was even more fearless. Protected by his Starlight Dao, he also wanted to charge into battle, but he hadn't gone far before being pressed down by the trees and falling to the bottom of the star region.
Looking from afar, one could see a stream of light piercing through countless trees from bottom to top in the tree sky, heading towards the canopy.
This stream of light resembled a sword.
Chen Xia's expression gradually became serious. The three million sword intents grew increasingly brilliant, the four realms showing a trend of fusion, as if becoming one at this moment, transforming into this purest form of sword.
In the Great Death Realm.
The Inner Demon looked up, lightly pointing a finger towards the sky, and said in a deep voice:
"Lend strength!"
Hum hum hum!
The power of the Great Death Realm was like a false heavenly dao.
The embryonic form of five realms!
This sword intent penetrated the entire tree sky, cleaving open heaven and earth, landing at the highest point of the sky.
Green robes fluttered as the figure stepped onto the firmament.
The Great Emperor's face showed a hint of bewilderment.
Chen Xia held his sword, his brows high and eyes shining, rarely so spirited. He smiled and said to the Great Emperor:
"One need not be a Great Emperor to stand above."
Today, a four-realm great saint ascended to challenge heaven. Four realms questioned one realm, standing equal with the Great Emperor!
The Great Emperor remained silent for a long time, finally sighing softly:
"Since you can stand in such a position, it means we are of the same kind. As such, I no longer have the right to take this dark remnant from your hands. You decide his fate yourself."
He was about to turn and leave when he suddenly paused and asked:
"What is your name, four-realm great saint? The Great Heaven hasn't produced a monster like you in too long."
"Chen Xia."
"Good. Tian Sen Great Emperor, that is my title," the Great Emperor replied, then added:
"What is the name of this star region? I will list it as a first-class star region when I return."
Chen Xia waved his hand, returning the immortal sword to his Heart Lake. His green robes fluttered slightly as he smiled and replied:
"Blue Sky Sword Sea."
Sigh, it's embarrassing to ask for gifts with such a short update. Everyone, save them up and give them to Little Suan tomorrow.
Good night, everyone.

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts...
