The hellish forces descended.
Six Supremes, each wielding immense killing power.
The Qian Yuan world was already in chaos.
The Immortal Emperor, the Divine Emperor, and the Heavenly Emperor, along with the heavenly warships, were all held back.
The heavens were in grave danger, but Qin Li remained unaware. He was at a critical moment in his breakthrough, his mind completely focused, oblivious to the approaching enemies.
“Ah!”
The Master of Lingtai Temple approached.
She looked at Qin Li and let out a long sigh.
If she wanted to, she could end the Rebellious Saint Emperor with a single strike.
If she did, the heavens would have no chance, and only slaughter would remain. Even the three Emperors would be powerless to change the outcome. The fate of the heavens was already sealed.
“Do it!”
“What are you waiting for?”
“Don’t give Qin Li a chance, act now!”
The three unparalleled Yama Lords were frantic, roaring at the sky, unable to wait any longer.
They had been suppressed and defeated by Qin Li time and time again. Now, victory was within reach, but the Master of Lingtai Temple was hesitating at the critical moment.
“Damn it!”
Bai Lijian was going mad.
Qin Li must not be harmed.
“Get out of my way, don’t block me!”
He swung his nine-colored immortal sword, sweeping across the battlefield, trying to break through the encirclement.
“Stop struggling, you can’t escape,” the Ancient Burial Yama transformed into pure darkness, cold and despairing.
When he summoned the Tomb of All Living Beings, it was as if all life was destined to be buried. Any energy, divine abilities, or even immortal techniques that fell into the tomb would dissipate, like a silent swamp swallowing the Immortal Emperor.
Not just him.
The Divine Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor were also trapped.
Chu Qingyin was on the verge of madness, unleashing every means at her disposal.
The Immortal Kingdom’s Green Lotus swayed, releasing killing intent that swept across the battlefield, but she couldn’t break through the encirclement.
“Why have you all grown so powerful in such a short time? Even without the support of the thirty-six hells, you can still suppress me,” the Heavenly Emperor’s gaze was icy.
The Extinction Yama was smug: “Because we sacrificed to the Heavenly Dao and received great blessings. That’s why we dared to venture into the heavens and destroy you.”
The Dusk Yama was equally formidable, completely suppressing Li Ping’an as he roared, “Master of Lingtai Temple, what are you waiting for? At a time like this, being a fence-sitter is meaningless. Kill Qin Li now!”
His roar shook heaven and earth.
All the powerful beings on the battlefield turned their attention to the Master of Lingtai Temple.
The Master of Lingtai Temple remained silent, sighing as she slowly raised her hand.
In her palm was a force capable of destroying worlds, glowing with a dreamlike light, as if it contained an entire universe, capable of annihilating all things.
“Stop!”
A beam of immortal light shot forth.
The *Dunan Immortal Ship* crashed toward her.
Onboard were Qin Li’s family and friends, who had originally been retreating.
But faced with such a dire situation, the Alchemy and Artifact Immortals had no choice but to intervene and provide support.
The immortal ship was pushed to its limits, its speed rivaling that of a Supreme. It streaked across the sky, leaving a trail of immortal light, aiming to crush the Master of Lingtai Temple.
“Drunken Dreams, Forgotten Death!”
The Master of Lingtai Temple had anticipated this.
With a sideways push of her palm, she unleashed layers of dreamlike illusions.
Though the *Dunan Immortal Ship* was powerful, it became lost in the illusions.
“What do we do? What can we do?” The women on the ship were on the verge of tears, desperate to help but unable to intervene.
The Master of Lingtai Temple was also conflicted. She called out:
“Mount Wugong’s Lord, perhaps you should do it.”
Hearing this!
Mount Wugong’s Lord was stunned.
He had been floating outside the battlefield, shattering stars.
He didn’t want to get involved in this mess because it was too painful.
Once upon a time, they had despised the Heavenly Dao for destroying their era. But now, they were becoming the very thing they hated, destroying someone else’s epoch.
“Pathetic! Pitiful! Tragic!”
Mount Wugong’s Lord stood shoulder to shoulder with the Master of Lingtai Temple.
Only they understood the unbearable weight of this betrayal.
Qin Li remained unaware, but the cracks on his body were growing more numerous.
“You two, if you don’t act soon, I will!” The Monarch of Hell was frantic. After suppressing the heavenly warship, he was ready to intervene.
“Understood!”
Mount Wugong’s Lord gritted his teeth.
With a resolute heart, he raised his fist.
It was as if he was lifting an ancient star, brimming with power and chaos.
Crack!
A loud explosion echoed.
Qin Li could no longer hold on and shattered.
He turned into a shower of crystalline sand, scattering across the ground.
“Hahaha! We did it, we finally did it!” The Yama Lords were ecstatic.
This move had interrupted Qin Li’s breakthrough and completely crushed the hope of the heavens. The outcome was now certain, and victory was assured.
“Damn it!”
The three Emperors of the heavens were enraged.
Their eyes burned with fury as they glared at Mount Wugong’s Lord.
They looked like bloodthirsty beasts, ready to devour him whole.
“Don’t look at me!”
Mount Wugong’s Lord was startled and shouted:
“I didn’t even strike! He shattered on his own. It’s not my fault.”
His fist was still raised in the air, never having landed, yet Qin Li had already exploded.
The Master of Lingtai Temple’s eyes flickered: “Qin Li was cultivating three paths simultaneously, and they were in conflict. His attempt to break through caused him to lose control, leading to his body’s collapse.”
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief, but a wave of sorrow washed over them. The Third Epoch was over, and today marked the destruction of the heavens.
“Regardless, Qin Li is dead!” The Ancient Burial Yama laughed heartily.
“Destiny is on our side, unstoppable!” The Dusk Yama was overjoyed.
“The heavens are finished, darkness reigns!” The Extinction Yama grew even more ruthless.
“I can’t wait to begin the slaughter!” The Monarch of Hell cackled.
Suddenly!
“I’m not dead yet!”
“Why are you so excited?”
Qin Li’s voice rang out, filled with mockery.
“What!”
Everyone was shocked.
Mount Wugong’s Lord felt a chill run down his spine.
The Master of Lingtai Temple stared at the crystalline sand left behind after Qin Li’s shattering.
The sand began to burn, releasing vast amounts of immortal energy. It coalesced, reforming Qin Li, who reappeared in a phantom-like form.
“Evil will never prevail over good. I believe this battle is ours to win!”
“You came at the perfect time. We can finish this in one go!”
Qin Li unleashed his aura.
Far surpassing his previous strength, he had truly stepped into the realm of a Supreme.
With every breath, he stirred the river of time, disrupting the layers of space.
At the critical moment, he had finally broken through, reaching Saint Eight and attaining the combat power of a Supreme.
The hellish forces were horrified but still tried to remain composed, shouting, “Even if you’ve broken through, so what? We have six Supremes. You can’t turn the tide.”
Qin Li smiled.
“Who said I’m alone?”
“There’s an old friend who’s been dying for revenge.”
With that, Qin Li’s mind trembled, activating the merit system and drawing upon trillions of merits.
Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed: “Good deeds bring good rewards, evil deeds bring retribution. Those who accumulate merit will be blessed, while those who accumulate evil will suffer misfortune.”
“I am the Moral Benchmark, here to uphold justice, reward the good, and punish the wicked!”
The voice of morality spread.
Qin Li began to split, dividing into two.
The Supreme of Taihua was reborn, devouring trillions of merits to reform his golden body.
“Your bow. Mount Wugong’s Lord is yours to deal with,” Qin Li handed over the Moral Immortal Bow.
“Exactly what I wanted!”
The Supreme of Taihua gripped the bow.
He charged toward Mount Wugong’s Lord, determined to exact revenge.
The Master of Lingtai Temple was stunned, unable to comprehend what was happening.
The hellish forces were in a frenzy: “Damn it, he’s split into two, both at the level of a Supreme. Combined with the heavenly warship, that’s almost six Supremes.”
Qin Li smiled again:
“Who said there are only two of me?”
As soon as he spoke, he split once more.
In an instant, two Qin Lis stood in the void, shocking everyone.
These were two more Supremes. Combined with the Supreme of Taihua, Qin Li had split into three Supremes after his breakthrough, each distinct.
The first had an immortal vessel body, indestructible and mighty, standing like an insurmountable mountain: “I am the Rebellious Saint Emperor, the Martial Supreme.”
The second was ethereal and mysterious, clad in white robes, surrounded by nine-colored immortal light, as if about to ascend to immortality. He could also summon the immortal dao fruit within the heavenly warship: “I am the Shoreless Daoist, the Qi Refinement Supreme!”
As soon as he spoke.
Everyone quickly understood.
Even the heavenly forces were stunned.
The Yama Lords’ eyes nearly popped out of their heads.
Mount Wugong’s Lord screamed in terror: “One Qi transforms into three pure beings. Three Supremes.”
The Master of Lingtai Temple was horrified: “Humans have three treasures: essence, energy, and spirit. Qin Li cultivated all three paths. After breaking through, he split into three, each an unparalleled Supreme.”
The Rebellious Saint Emperor nodded: “I am rooted in the Body Refinement system, reflecting the First Epoch. This immortal vessel body is my island, indestructible and born a Supreme!”
The Supreme of Taihua drew his bow: “I have mastered the Divine Refinement system, reflecting the Second Epoch. My island is the heavenly merit system, sacred and flawless.”
The Shoreless Daoist exuded immortal energy: “I have comprehended the Qi Refinement system, reflecting the Third Epoch. My island is the heavenly warship, guiding all beings to the shore.”
These three were all Qin Li, yet not entirely. They were parts of him. Separately, they were three Supremes. If they merged, their conflicting attributes would actually weaken their combined power.
