Chapter 132: The Celestial Emperors Trial (1/2)

The provincial seal floated in front of Lu Yun. Just as the enormous tsunami came crashing down, the power of the land suddenly erupted and formed a massive wall that blocked the sea waters.

Hack!

However, Lu Yun immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

Crack crack crack...

All of his bones creaked and groaned loudly from bearing too much stress.

“Lu Yun!” Pale with fright, Qing Han reached out a hand to help him.

“Don’t touch me!” Lu Yun growled. Through the power of the land, his body was now a rampart that withstood the fearsome waves. If Qing Han touched him, his friend would be instantly ground to dust, given that he lacked the seal’s protection.

Boom!

Lu Yun called upon the seal and conjured a mighty aura that exploded outward and forced Qing Han back. His figure then slowly rose in the air, the seal floating over his head as it continued gathering the province’s power to repel the tsunami and torrential downpour from the heavens.

However, his cultivation was too low to mobilize the land’s prodigious power in its entirety; inch by inch, the daunting waves drew ever closer to the stronghold.

Humm.

The governor’s manor suddenly lit up.

Five golden dragons shot into the sky and circled around Lu Yun, his neat topknot exploding into a mess of hair as the brightness coming from the seal became blinding.

“I’m the root cause for the situation, so I should naturally be the one to solve it.” Though calm, the tone of his voice brooked no argument.

Qing Han bit his lip, but ultimately didn’t approach him.

“Hehehe, North Sea Emperor? You’re nothing but a feral animal. How dare a wild mongrel kick up a fuss in Nephrite Major?” Lu Yun soared to the dome of the sky, his figure boring a hole in the thick black clouds. Golden sunlight spilled in from the opening, illuminating the province and dispersing the heavy, stifling atmosphere.

“Die, life core bug!” The North Sea Emperor raged at Lu Yun’s provocation.

Boom!

Deafening thunder rumbled and roiled above Dusk Province, thick black clouds once again converging to blot out the heavens. This time, there was an addition of a giant black snake, more than five thousand kilometers long, coiled in the sky over the land.

The North Sea Emperor!

The spirit emperor’s true form was that of an immense blackwater snake. Though it didn’t dare enter Dusk Province in person, its formidable powers could still project a giant silhouette into the sky.

The power of the land fiercely shook in response and blood misted out of Lu Yun’s every orifice and pore, forming a bloody fog around him.

The Tome of Life and Death vibrated as it attempted to shield its owner, but the limited power it could currently muster was far too lacking to contend with the dreadful monster spirit emperor. The power it had was proportional to Lu Yun’s cultivation, and although the giant blackwater snake was dozens of thousands of kilometers away in the North Sea, the governor was still no match for it, even with the help of the book. There was too big a gap between the two of them.

All of a sudden, the book and seed of the sal tree both shrank into a dot before vanishing from Lu Yun’s dantian, and even the chaotic hellfire faded into nothingness.

Boom!

As a golden halo rose from the young governor’s figure, the five dragons immediately disappeared and were replaced by nine golden divine dragons.

A tall, aureate figure appeared behind him and infinite energy flowed into him, filling his entire being with unprecedented power and making him feel like a single gesture of his could command heaven and earth. It was a very strange and truly glorious feeling.
