NOVPUBChapter 1165: Chapter 954: Breaking through Four Heavens Part 2 Chapter 1165: Chapter 954: Breaking through Four Heavens Part 2 However, five hundred years ago, he was confident that he could have slain his former self from a thousand years back with just a handful of moves, and after another five hundred years of cultivation, coupled with martial techniques powered by the Divine Eye Ability, he now had the confidence he could annihilate his former self from a thousand years ago in just two or three moves. Naturally, this included supremely powerful beings like Emperor Wu and Emperor Proud, and he would ensure that neither Emperor Wu nor Emperor Proud could escape.
From this, one could see the importance of following the right person.
If he hadn’t bowed to the magnanimous Blood Emperor decisively back then and been favored by him, he wouldn’t possess the strength he had today.
…
Soon, the final hundred or so years that Lin Yun had made up his mind about passed.
“It’s about time…”
In his cultivation area, Lin Yun opened his eyes, as streaks of radiance flashed from the depths of his pupils, he murmured softly.
His strength had already reached the limit of the upper echelons of the Saint King Realm, making it difficult to improve even a fraction more. The Blood Prison Sword, too, had long since been restored to its peak state from his previous life, even surpassing it slightly. Advancing it further was no simple task.
All preparations had been made.
“Success or failure, hinges on this one action!”
Lin Yun soared into the sky, swiftly bypassing the restrictions of his cultivation area, with the Blood Prison Sword in his grasp. A radiant blood-colored light emanated from the sword, and the entire blade buzzed with vibration.
“What a formidable aura?”
“Is this the aura of the Great Blood Emperor?”
“What’s happening?”
Lin Yun’s ascent shook the entire area greatly, instantly alarming many Ghost Practitioners who were cultivating in the forty-first Layered Heaven. They all opened their eyes and, peering through numerous barriers, looked towards the sky with shock on their faces.
“Is the Great Blood Emperor about to open up a New Layered Heaven?” The Tri-Eyed Emperor also opened his Three Eyes, and upon seeing the scene outside, he clenched his fists tightly and murmured softly.
He had noticed Lin Yun’s previous actions when opening up a new heaven, which were similar. Now, the Netherworld was in peace, and no ordinary event would cause the Great Blood Emperor to make such grand movements.
Thus, the only worthy cause for the Great Blood Emperor to take such significant action must be to forge a New Layered Heaven.
Soon, Lin Yun hovered at the very top of the forty-first Layered Heaven, stopping in place as his momentum continued to rise steadily.
He was building up his power, something he hadn’t done in quite some time.
Previously, when breaking through each New Layered Heaven, he mostly possessed an overwhelming power and hadn’t needed to do this.
But now, he planned to quickly shatter four layers of New Layered Heaven and needed to do it in one fell swoop and as quickly as possible. Every fraction of a second and every millisecond was crucial, and hence, it was necessary to utilize every bit of strength efficiently.
In the sky, Lin Yun kept his eyes tightly shut, not uttering a word.
Suddenly, Lin Yun’s grand movements alerted all the strong Ghost Practitioners in the forty-first Layered Heaven.
“Is the Great Blood Emperor going to cut through the New Layered Heaven again?”
“That’s wonderful!”
“Is the Great Blood Emperor gathering momentum?”
“The Great Blood Emperor’s aura is so powerful, I feel like just this aura could easily annihilate me!” 𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝙤𝒎
Many Ghost Practitioners discussed excitedly and were full of anticipation.
This time, Lin Yun took ten days to gather his strength.
Ten days later, all the Ghost Practitioners of the forty-first Layered Heaven had gathered, with not a single one missing.
The Great Blood Emperor was about to open a New Layered Heaven—this was a major event they didn’t want to miss.
After ten days, Lin Yun’s momentum finally reached its peak.
Lin Yun suddenly opened his eyes, and beams of light briefly flashed in the depths of his pupils.
“Boom!”
Lin Yun shot up into the sky again.
“Break! Break! Break!”
With a slash of his sword towards the sky, Lin Yun also bellowed out loud.
“Roar— Roar—”
After a space-quaking sound, another quickly followed in succession.
“Crack! Roar—”
Soon, a black crack appeared, followed by the emergence of a powerful aura. The second space-quaking sound came alongside this aura, and at the same time, a torrent of pure Yin attribute energy gushed down from the black crack.
The entire forty-first Layered Heaven underwent rapid changes.
“This… so much power of heaven and earth…”
“Yes! There’s too much power here. It’s far beyond the last time!”
Many Ghost Practitioners exclaimed in shock.
The Blood Emperor could certainly break through the forty-second Layered Heaven, and there were hardly any Ghost Practitioners who doubted it. What shocked them even more was that after the Blood Emperor broke through the forty-second Layered Heaven, so much of the heaven and earth’s power surged out from that spatial rift.
“No, this heaven and earth’s power feels different to me…”
“Just now, it seemed like there were two spatial fluctuations born? Is there something off with the way the Blood Emperor broke into the New Layered Heaven?”
“What in the world is going on…”
Soon, some Ghost Practitioners came to their senses and once again turned their gazes toward Lin Yun.
However, they saw that after Lin Yun had cleaved through the New Layered Heaven, he didn’t stay in his original place but had already rushed into the spatial rift.
This type of situation was basically witnessed by all the Ghost Practitioners.
The last time the Blood Emperor had cleaved through the forty-first Layered Heaven, it was the same.
That place was the core where the New Layered Heaven opened up. The core of the New Layered Heaven, where the power of heaven and earth was purest and most concentrated, it was not strange for the Blood Emperor to go there to cultivate.
However… this time… they seemed not to sense the Blood Emperor’s aura from that spatial rift…
This was very unusual!
Logically, since the New Layered Heaven wasn’t fully formed yet and still had a vast spatial connection with the forty-first Layered Heaven, the Blood Emperor was essentially still in the same space as them, and they shouldn’t be unable to sense him.
“What has happened?”
“What’s going on?”
“Where did the Blood Emperor go?”
Some Ghost Practitioners were puzzled, one after another.
“Could it be…” Among the Ghost Practitioners, only the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s body trembled slightly, his face filled with shock and disbelief.
His Talent Divine Power was the Divine Eye, and the level of the Divine Eye was extremely high. In addition, his Divine Eye Ability had made significant progress recently, allowing him to see things ordinary Ghost Practitioners couldn’t.
Just like at this moment, he saw that the two spatial tremors seemed to be the shockwaves from the opening of two layers of New Layered Heaven.
The place where the Blood Emperor rushed toward was not only the core of the New Layered Heaven but the core of a new New Layered Heaven. It wasn’t the forty-second Layered Heaven but the forty-third Layered Heaven instead.
That was precisely why the other Ghost Practitioners did not sense the Blood Emperor’s aura.
However, if this was the case, the Blood Emperor… had not only broken through one layer of the New Layered Heaven, but two layers at once!
The Tri-Eyed Emperor was extremely shocked in his heart.
The New Layered Heaven, how difficult is it to break through?
Countless Netherworld talents, over countless years, find it difficult to break through just one layer of the New Layered Heaven!
Every time a New Layered Heaven in the Netherworld was broken through, it was a huge event!
And yet, when it came to the Blood Emperor, breaking through the New Layered Heaven was as simple as eating and drinking!
Previously, in just over a hundred years, the Blood Emperor had broken through five layers of the New Layered Heaven!
Now, after several hundred years, the Blood Emperor had become even more formidable, actually breaking through two layers of the New Layered Heaven at once!
Originally, he thought perhaps because the Blood Emperor had broken through so many layers of the New Layered Heaven in succession, the subsequent New Layered Heavens were not easy to break. Hence, for such a long time, the Blood Emperor had not even attempted!
The facts proved that he had thought too much!
No wonder the Blood Emperor had saved up such a long momentum earlier. It wasn’t that the Blood Emperor wasn’t confident, but that he harbored an even bigger ambition. So that’s how it was!
At this moment, the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s admiration for the Blood Emperor was beyond measure!
Initially, he thought that if the Blood Emperor intended to consecutively break through to the forty-fifth Layered Heaven, it might take a long time!
Now it seemed, it probably wouldn’t take much time at all for the Blood Emperor to keep breaking through up to the forty-fifth Layered Heaven!
As for whether the Blood Emperor could consecutively break through up to the forty-fifth Layered Heaven, he didn’t doubt it at all now!
“No, what is the Blood Emperor doing now…” However, just at that moment, the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s body shuddered again, his face incredulous as he looked in the direction where Lin Yun was heading.
He saw, in his eyes, the Blood Emperor was wielding the Blood Prison Sword, slashing towards a new Layered Heaven once again.
“Could it be that the Blood Emperor doesn’t just want to break through two consecutive layers of the New Layered Heaven, but three?” The Tri-Eyed Emperor thought with astonishment.
Several hundred years ago, although the time intervals when the Blood Emperor consecutively broke through four layers of the New Layered Heaven were not long, only a few days, which were negligible to them as Cultivators.
But still, there was a time gap. Most importantly, back then Lin Yun’s realm kept improving, nearly after breaking through each New Layered Heaven, his realm would ascend, which made it somewhat acceptable for them.
Now, he saw that the Blood Emperor’s realm hadn’t improved, yet he was about to consecutively break through three layers of the New Layered Heaven, leaving him with a tremendous shock.
“Boom!”
While the Tri-Eyed Emperor was contemplating this, Lin Yun’s Blood Prison Sword had already been swung, and with the motion, a new spatial rift appeared, a powerful spatial tremor following suit.
The forty-fourth Layered Heaven, broken!
