Chapter 586: Chapter 585: Consecutive Slaying

"Ding! Successfully killed the Profound Dragon Divine General. Obtained 210,000,000 experience, 13,000 Madness Value, and 1,800 Sin Value. Obtained Martial Arts: Slaying Dragon and Dragon Spirit Technique. Obtained items: Broken Tooth (High-Grade Sacred Artifact), Dragon Spirit Ring (Low-Grade Sacred Artifact Accessory), and Dragon God Bloodline (Fourth Grade)."

’The experience from killing a Spirit King Stage expert feels great.’ The amount was substantial—way more profitable than killing those at the Core Formation Stage, and the loot was even better.

However, the Dragon Spirit Ring’s appearance was a pleasant surprise. An accessory had finally dropped. He gave it a quick inspection, and its detailed stats immediately appeared before him.

Dragon Spirit Ring: Low-Grade Sacred Artifact. Equipping it increases strength tenfold and Defense Power fivefold. Consume 5,000 Madness Value to cast Dragon’s Roar, dealing damage equal to 50% of your total Combat Power. Cooldown: one hour.

"A great item!"

Yi Tianyun was quite satisfied. ’No wonder accessories have been so rare; the effects on this thing are incredible.’ However, he could only equip one. Even though he had ten fingers, only one ring would work at a time.

If he could wear effective rings on all ten fingers, that would be completely overpowered. A single ring offered a tenfold increase in strength; ten of them would mean a hundredfold boost!

With strength alone, he could shatter the Void and destroy everything.

While he was inspecting the ring, everyone else stared at him, dumbfounded—or rather, at the corpse on the ground—their mouths hanging open. It was simply too terrifying. A seventh-level Spirit King Stage Profound Dragon Divine General, cleaved in two so easily? It was as if he were made of paper, sliced in half with a single swing.

His gaze then shifted to the Profound Tiger Divine General and the others. Their faces were drained of color, clearly shaken by his display of power. They knew, deep down, that even they couldn’t possibly cleave a man in two with a single strike.

Not even with a High-Grade Sacred Artifact. The Dragon Scales on the Profound Dragon Divine General’s body were easily comparable to a Mid-Grade Sacred Artifact in terms of defense, making them incredibly difficult to cut through.

Yet, under Yi Tianyun’s overwhelming power, he was still cleaved in two with a single strike, stunning everyone present.

"The so-called helper you speak of doesn’t exist. I told you I would overthrow all the Empires by myself, but you didn’t believe me. Just because you can’t do it doesn’t mean others can’t," Yi Tianyun said nonchalantly.

"Celestial Cloud Emperor! Celestial Cloud Emperor!"

At this moment, the guards behind him began to roar, their voices echoing through the heavens. Seeing their own Great Emperor display such might, how could they not be thrilled?

This was the posture of an invincible being, capable of crushing all other forces! The supposedly undefeatable Profound Dragon Divine General was slain with a single sword strike—one could only imagine how powerful that made him.

The old man’s and the others’ pupils shrank, and they sucked in a sharp breath. From the looks of it, they weren’t facing a Great Emperor with a helper, but a Great Emperor who was himself terrifyingly overpowered.

"Profound Dragon!" The Profound Tiger Divine General let out a gut-wrenching scream. He was utterly devastated. His eyes turned crimson, instantly filling with blood vessels, and he felt as if his heart was about to explode.

His good friend, with whom he had fought side-by-side for so many years, had just died before his very eyes. How could he not be furious?

"I want you to die!"

The Profound Tiger Divine General roared in anger, and the Divine Tiger Essence Blood within him began to burn. The White Tiger phantom behind him roared wildly, as if it were about to solidify into a real entity. His power grew stronger and stronger!

His body rapidly swelled, and thick fur grew wildly over it. His eyes turned a terrifying, ghastly green. Even in broad daylight, they seemed to burst with green light, sending a chill through the hearts of all who saw it.

His Physique rapidly grew to twice its previous size, now towering over ten zhang high, like a small mountain. Especially when floating in the air, he looked like a small mountain about to fly over and crush everything.

Yi Tianyun didn’t waste a single word on him. With a backhand motion, he mercilessly slashed out with his sword. A Sword Aura, with a SWOOSH, streaked across the Profound Tiger Divine General’s body at an unbelievable speed.

The Profound Tiger Divine General paused for a moment. Finding nothing wrong with his body, he laughed loudly, "This garbage attack is useless against me!"

After going berserk, both his power and Defense Power had risen drastically, but the side effects were equally astonishing.

"You know nothing of my power," Yi Tianyun said, his tone cold. ’A Spirit King Stage expert? No matter how powerful his rampage, he’s nothing but trash before me.’

"Is that so? Then let me see—"

The Profound Tiger Divine General didn’t even finish his sentence before his mountain-like body began to split down the middle. Just like the Profound Dragon Divine General before him, he was instantly divided in two! Torrents of blood poured down from the sky like a waterfall, dyeing a large patch of the ground red.

Then, the enormous body, its eyes still holding a look of disbelief, crashed down from the sky, shaking the ground and kicking up clouds of dust that billowed outwards.

Another Divine General was dead, completely and utterly. His fate was the same as the Profound Dragon Divine General’s. This time, he had been fully prepared, even unleashing his strongest power, but the result was no different. He was still cleaved in two by a single sword strike!

"Ding! Successfully killed the Profound Tiger Divine General. Obtained 198,000,000 experience, 12,000 Madness Value, and 1,400 Sin Value. Obtained Martial Arts: White Tiger Break and White Tiger Possession. Obtained items: White Tiger Hide, White Tiger Bloodline (Third Grade), and White Tiger’s Sharp Claw!"

No accessory dropped, which Yi Tianyun found a bit of a shame, but overall, it was still a decent haul.

"Celestial Cloud Emperor! Celestial Cloud Emperor!"

The guards behind Yi Tianyun cheered again. They had never seen him fight before, so they hadn’t known just how formidable he was. Now they knew: their Great Emperor was the most powerful being, with absolutely no fear of the World Dragon Empire.

"A pity. If those so-called Five Kings of the World Dragon Empire had come, I would have cut them all down!" Yi Tianyun sneered. He had waited here for so long, but no one else showed up. Even after he killed two Spirit Kings, still no one came to their aid.

’This proves only two Spirit King Stage experts really came. That’s far too few.’

The old man’s and the others’ faces turned ashen. The next moment, they turned to flee, not daring to linger for a second longer. But just as they turned, two of them met Yi Tianyun’s gaze, and their bodies suddenly trembled and froze in place.

"Run!" one of the Void Spirit Stage Cultivators shouted.

As soon as he shouted, two sharp swords pierced through his body. He looked up in disbelief to see that the ones who had run him through were none other than his own companions.

"You... you..."

After crying out twice, his breath left him completely. He died with overwhelming resentment, never having expected to be killed by his own people. He could not rest in peace. Little did he know, his companions hadn’t wanted to do it; it was Yi Tianyun controlling them.

"Alright, you can properly explain your situation now." Yi Tianyun clapped his hands and gestured for them to fly down. A cold light flashed in his eyes; he wanted to hear all about the Celestial Nether Divine Kingdom and the World Dragon Empire!
