Imperial God Emperor (Web Novel)

Several experts from the Divine Light Court attempted to charge at this Daoist priest who wielded a long, bloodied spear, but they all exploded into a pile of mutilated flesh and blood with one of his glances. They plummeted to the ground and became part of the sea of blood.

"This is such a familiar scent. The blood and flesh of all creatures are the true top delicacies of this world," the Daoist priest exclaimed.

He opened his mouth as though he was a whale gulping water, and the countless Emperor-level experts all across the Divine Light Court who were struggling to protect the weak were drawn toward him. Then, his body immediately expanded and grew to be several thousand meters tall as he swallowed these countless experts.

He was eating.

"Bloodied-Spear Daoist Grandmaster, I see you've made your way here too," a voice sounded.

A figure walked out from the gate of blood in the void. He had a head of long, purple hair and had big, bulging muscles that were covered in scales. He had the body of a man but also had a long dragon's tail. His hind legs were tough and strong, while his front legs were like dragon claws. He didn't wear any armor nor clothes, while his purple scales covered his entire body; he had the appearance of an ancient fiendgod.

Another sovereign from an alternate timeline had made his way into the world.

"Dark Purple Sovereign? It has been a hundred thousand years since we last met," the Bloodied-Spear Daoist Grandmaster glanced at him before he opened his mouth once more, swallowing deeply like a dragon gulping down water, as he frantically drew on and absorbed the creatures of the various races down below. Countless experts from the Divine Light Court were pulled into his mouth and he continued feasting with huge gulps.

"Ha-ha, this is a great opportunity for me to nourish myself. I can't completely mature by feasting on the lifeforms of this era but it will still benefit me nonetheless," the Dark Purple Sovereign said with a cruel laugh.

He unsheathed his purple dragon claws and swiped at the void. A peak Quasi-emperor several thousand meters away—one who was organizing the troops of the Divine Light Court to resist the destructive power of the blood formation—was captured by him, then thrown into his mouth and chewed like a wild beast feasting on its prey. His strong jaws tore this Quasi-emperor into several pieces; then he ate everything, including the bones and flesh.

Several drops of blood dripped out from the corners of the Dark Purple Sovereign's mouth.

He constantly swiped at the void and each time, he chose the experts from the Divine Light Court, then ignored their frantic struggles and howls as he ruthlessly ate them whole.

"No, father..." A ray of flowing light flickered.

A young soldier from the Divine Light Court rushed toward the Dark Purple Sovereign. The peak Quasi-emperor who had been eaten by the Dark Purple Sovereign was his father and thus, the young man was enraged and charged over like a madman hell-bent on revenge.

Swoosh!

A black figure flashed by.

The young man was ensnared by the black tentacle that was several thousand meters long and dragged back.

The black tentacle absorbed all the energy and blood essence within this young man's body almost instantly, reducing this man to nothing but ashes that floated in the void.

The tentacle had stretched out from the gate of blood. Then, the gate of blood was pushed open and a lethal creature that looked like an octopus slowly struggled to squeeze itself out of it. It was a foreign race expert who was not any weaker compared to the Bloodied-Spear Daoist Grandmaster and the Dark Purple Sovereign. It had transcended the Martial Emperor realm and was even more powerful than the two sovereigns.

"I sense an abundant life force in this place, a place where I can hunt freely. Very well, I shall use this place to replenish the energy I've exhausted by descending upon this place," the gigantic octopus monster said as it stretched out its thousands of tentacles into every part of the Divine Light Court.

That was an apocalyptic day.

No one could have imagined that the Divine Light Court that ruled over the world would one day face such a frightening attack, being so thoroughly defeated by the enemy in such a short span of time.

Grey mist circulated all around.

The Sky Emperor reappeared.

"The Divine Light Emperor will arrive shortly," he warned as he stood in the void and looked at Bloodied-Spear Daoist Grandmaster and the others. "Don't let down your guard or the [Sword of Divine Light] will make you pay the price for your negligence."

Before his voice had faded away—

There was a bright flash of light in the void.

The Divine Light Emperor appeared. He had already rushed back.

"Ah..." he let out an angry growl when he saw the tragedy and destruction that had befallen the Divine Light Court. When he saw how countless citizens who had admired and looked up to him were reduced to a sea of blood. Even though he was so powerful, he still struggled to rein in the anger and killing intent.

The Sky Emperor's plan to launch a far-flung expedition to the Cloudy Clear Sea had been a malicious plot from the very beginning.

He had made use of the Divine Light Emperor's interest in the Yinqing Sea Eye and his desire to return to his hometown, to launch a large-scale expedition toward the Cloudy Clear Sea. All the core troops and main forces of the Divine Light Court had set forth toward the Cloudy Clear Sea. According to the Sky Emperor, this would have been the final expedition that the Divine Light Court would launch; but it had only been a ploy to lure the truly powerful forces away from the Divine Light Court, turning it into an empty shell that lacked proper military strength. Then, the Divine Light City had fallen because of the blood formation and several other traps that he had secretly put in place; the glorious imperial city that was unparalleled across all races was turned into a sea of death and falling snow.

The 'battle' in the Cloudy Clear Sea and the blurry figures that looked like projections who had descended upon the world were merely diversions to distract the Divine Light Emperor, leaving him unable to detect the tragedy that had befallen the Divine Light Court.

It was far too late by the time the Divine Light Emperor detected the truth and rushed over.

The four blood formations exerted a terrifying apocalyptic power, destroying the lives of countless creatures; the blood essences and souls from millions of martial experts were absorbed by these formations. This was then turned into energy to open the gate to the alternate timeline, the true gate to this world. When the gate stained with blood opened, it was then when the fiendgods of the alternate timelines could truly enter into their world.

That was the true descent.

These fiendgods and sovereigns were more than happy to massacre and absorb the powers of the experts in this time and space, as though they were plundering someone else's bountiful fields. They didn't feel any guilt at all; the more they plundered, the better it was for them, since it had taken so much out of them to truly descend upon the world of this timeline.

The people who they had massacred, including Martial Emperor experts, were as insignificant as crickets and ants to them.

Would anyone feel guilt and remorse for killing millions of crickets and ants?

Obviously not.

"Great, the big fish has finally arrived," the Bloodied-Spear Daoist Grandmaster looked at the Divine Light Emperor; his eyes gleamed greedily as he said, "It is rare that such a powerful expert has managed to emerge from a civilization that had yet to fully mature. The purity of the power of light is a true treasure. He'll definitely be a great tonic."

The Divine Light Emperor was nothing but a tonic to the Bloodied-Spear Daoist Grandmaster.

"Haha, I like the smell of his blood. I'm sure he'll be very tasty," the Dark Purple Sovereign revealed his innate violent nature as he made a grab for the Divine Light Emperor immediately. He wanted to capture and devour the Divine Light Emperor like all the other Quasi-emperors he had munched on earlier.

The gigantic octopus monster didn't say anything but his thousands of tentacles were already crawling toward the Divine Light Emperor.

Ye Qingyu had also appeared in the distance.

He heard the Divine Light Emperor's angry growl and saw ten thousand rays of light flash in the air as the gigantic octopus monster's tentacles were all hacked off by the [Sword of Divine Light]. The Dark Purple Sovereign's huge purple dragon claw was also hacked off, while the Bloodied-Spear Daoist Grandmaster was sent flying back three thousand kilometers by the [Sword of Divine Light]...

The enraged Divine Light Emperor was as unstoppable as a divine king.

An intense battle unfolded.

The Dao laws and order rolled around turbulently across the world; the ground split apart while the void was smashed open. As the power of light swept across the surroundings, countless chains of order immediately appeared and traveled across the void, while the laws would collapse, then mend themselves. Ye Qingyu felt like this world was about to be smashed open at any time.

Not only Ye Qingyu, but also the demons descended from the gate of blood, all were now truly witnessing the Divine Light Emperor's prowess.

Three fiendgods from an alternate timeline had joined forces but they were still unable to defeat the Divine Light Emperor.

An hour later, the Bloodied-Spear Daoist Grandmaster's body was covered in sword marks; a sword had pierced through the Dark Purple Sovereign's stomach, while the gigantic octopus monster's tentacles kept regrowing before being hacked off time and time again—it had probably lost millions of tentacles...

They were all thoroughly suppressed by the enraged Divine Light Emperor.

Before descending upon that world, from a reincarnated era that had yet to fully mature, the thought of encountering such a formidable foe had never crossed their minds. They assumed that it would be a crushing victory; their goal was merely to reap the spoils ahead of time. After all, this was a crucial time for them. However...

"I had already warned you not to let down your guard..." the Sky Emperor was livid.

He was extremely disappointed in the performance of the Bloodied-Spear Daoist Grandmaster and the others.

"Open the gate of blood and request for the Ancient Ghostly Emperor to emerge," the Bloodied-Spear Daoist Grandmaster looked like a disheveled mess. He had never been so thoroughly crushed throughout his long and powerful life. He was already considered a Grandmaster in his own timeline, so he felt extremely humiliated by the fact that he was being dominated by a sovereign from a non-mature era.

"No wonder the Abandoned Fiendgod mentioned that there was a threat in this era, and tasked us to destroy it ahead of time," the Dark Purple Sovereign said with a cold scoff.

They were all sovereigns who had ruled over a particular civilization and era, and whose power had significantly decreased after they had descended upon an alternate timeline. They looked extremely bedraggled but they couldn't possibly die since they were merely doppelganger projections. However, if their true-self projections were to be destroyed, their yuan qi would be severely damaged.

The gigantic octopus monster constantly stretched out its newly grown tentacles to join forces with the two other fiendgods, as they engaged the Divine Light Emperor in battle.

It was a brutal battle.

The Sky Emperor who had completely crossed over to the dark side started to massacre those from the Divine Light Court, constantly supplying the formations with blood and bones. He personally murdered the experts who had once been his men and poured their blood onto the formations. He slashed out with his sword and massacred countless others who had once been his comrades. These people turned into bones, dying by his sword in disbelief and shock...

Even up to the point when they died, many experts and creatures couldn't believe that they had been slaughtered by the highly regarded second-in-command of the Divine Light Court, the Sky Emperor who had shone the brightest after the Divine Light Emperor.

What had happened?

Ye Qingyu felt like his eyes were about to be torn apart as he watched this scene.

The Sky Emperor was mad; he had truly gone mad.

If he could, he would have definitely put a stop to this.

Unfortunately, these were events from millions of years ago; he was unable to change history.

The Sky Emperor was far too despicable and ruthless.

The Divine Light Emperor let out a heartrending cry as he finally gave up on the Sky Emperor. He made several attempts on the Sky Emperor's life, even at the risk of harming himself, but he failed to kill him as the three other fiendgods from an alternate timeline continued to block his attacks.

Soon, the gate of blood finally opened once more after it had received enough energy to sustain it.

A frightening figure that was shrouded in dark blue light appeared.
