Chapter 0170: The Great Emperor?!

Standing from afar, Lin Er watched the battle in the sky under the protection of the Snow Empire’s Sacred Domain guards. Seeing the Yellow Dragon repeatedly withstand the attacks from the Ancestor left him as astonished as everyone else in the Snow Empire, his shock evident on his face.
The Ancestor was a god-tier powerhouse!
A true god, not some fake god like those from the Divine Realm—how could he not be able to kill the other party even after several attempts?!
Not even those from the Divine Realm could do that!
So, this Yellow Dragon’s strength could no longer be measured as just the best below the Divine Realm.
“Great Emperor, who is this Ancestor?” asked a mid-level Sacred Domain powerhouse of the Snow Empire, recovering from his shock.
The other Sacred Domain members also turned to look at Lin Er.
Lin Er turned his head, his gaze sharp, and snapped, “Don’t ask if you shouldn’t know!”
The mid-level Sacred Domain powerhouse replied, “Yes, Great Emperor.”
Gai Li stared at the sky, frowning. “That Yellow Dragon is actually this strong!”
“So what if he’s strong? He’s just at the peak of a small Sacred Domain. He definitely can’t escape in front of an Ancestor of god-tier strength!” Lin Er said gravely.
Of course, that was just his wish.
In reality, over the past year, the Yellow Dragon had accomplished countless miracles—anything deemed impossible on the Hengyuan Continent had been done by him.
So, what about this time?
“Good. After the Ancestor kills the Yellow Dragon this time, our Snow Empire will surely become the foremost among the Five Great Empires!”
“With the Ancestor around, even the Church will have to submit!”
The people of the Snow Empire said one after another.
Lin Er’s smile grew wider. Indeed, with such a god-tier powerhouse like the Ancestor, other empires, the Dragon race, the Sea race, and even the Church would have to show respect to the Snow Empire.
Even the Four-Winged Angel Tobid of the Church was only at the Divine Realm level.
As for the army losses suffered by the Snow Empire this time, they could be replenished within a few years.
While Lin Er and the others were discussing, in the Snow Empire’s palace…
In the Wind and Moon Palace, Daina was overjoyed. “What? An Ancestor of the empire—a god-tier powerhouse!”
Previously, when the Yellow Dragon attacked the Snow Empire, she had been unable to sleep or eat properly for a month, feeling as though death was closing in on her. Today, she was even more terrified.
But unexpectedly, just now a maid brought news that the empire had an Ancestor of god-tier strength who was currently fighting against the Yellow Dragon.
In an instant, Daina was stunned by this unexpected good fortune. The sky was filled with light.

“A god-tier powerhouse, a god-tier powerhouse!” After muttering to herself, Daina suddenly burst into loud laughter, disregarding her status. After laughing, she wore a fierce expression and said, “Huang Long, I don’t think you’ll survive this time!”
“Zhao Yang, do you really think having Huang Long gives you any advantage over me?!”
“After Huang Long dies, I’ll slowly torture you to death!” Daina roared almost frantically.
These days, as Huang Long’s army pressed down on the Blizzard Empire, she had had enough.
Everyone in the entire Blizzard Empire blamed her for all this, and some ministers constantly urged Lin Er to hand her over.
If it weren’t for the support of the Aub family behind her, Lin Er might indeed have handed her over.
Yet even so, she endured Lin Er’s scolding almost every day for a month.
It was all because of Huang Long, because of the Zhao and Huang families!
After Huang Long died, she would repay the Zhao and Huang families tenfold, a hundredfold, a thousandfold!
…
After blocking the opponent’s attack, Huang Long forced down the surging vital energy within him, then leaped up and swung down fiercely.
“Purple Thunder Sky Blade!”
A purple lightning bolt, as big as an arm, spread across the sky before transforming into a giant sword that slashed down at the ancient ancestor.
Its immense power scattered the clouds high in the sky.
Even the ancient ancestor was shocked.
“This kid, though only at the peak of the Sacred Realm, has an attacking power that’s not much weaker than that of a god-tier warrior!” The ancient ancestor was stunned inwardly, but his hands didn’t stop. He waved his divine spear, creating countless spear shadows that moved erratically, giving an eerie appearance.
Yet within those erratic movements, all light energy in space seemed to be drawn and disrupted, causing the Purple Thunder Sky Blade to disintegrate bit by bit.
Just as the ancient ancestor fired his spear, another force surged from behind him.
“Galaxy Vortex!”
With a fierce killing intent on his face, Huang Long’s spiritual essence struck out.
Wherever his energy passed, it created a galaxy that spun, generating a crushing force that sought to trap the ancient ancestor inside.
This mystical technique, the Galaxy Vortex, required years of absorbing the power of stars and the universe to master. At its peak, it could even crush countless stars and turn them into energy for Huang Long to absorb.
But right now, Huang Long’s cultivation level was still too weak.
The vortex he created was only a few hundred meters in size.
The ancient ancestor was shocked and immediately fired back with his spear, stopping the vortex.

Yet, with this single strike, the power of the Galaxy Vortex still sent the opponent flying, and his dragon robe was torn to shreds by the fierce energy. After retreating, the ancient ancestor stared at the two Yellow Dragons in front of him with a mixture of shock and fury. Did the opponent really have a clone? Earlier, Lin Er had mentioned this to him. “Damn it!” the ancient ancestor growled angrily, his eyes filled with murderous intent. His divine spear emitted a loud sound as well—his dragon robe had been destroyed by just that one strike, by a mere peak Saint Realm being. This dragon robe had accompanied him for over six thousand years. It had never been damaged before, yet it was ruined after he became a god by such a lowly being. His eyes glowed white. “You brat, how dare you destroy my dragon robe!” he said in a deep voice. The intense murderous intent forced Lin Er and the others in the distance to retreat once again. “This dragon robe was sewn by my most beloved woman—how dare you destroy it!” Destroy it! Destroy it! His roar echoed through space. Anyone could sense the terrifying anger and murderous intent in the ancient ancestor’s heart. Then, under the horrified gazes of Lin Er and the others, the ancient ancestor’s aura grew stronger and stronger. Storms formed around him, and within those storms, mysterious forces clashed violently. The space around him kept collapsing. Watching the overwhelming aura being released by the opponent, the Yellow Dragon was deeply alarmed, his expression growing increasingly grave. Earlier, the opponent must have been suppressing his divine power—no wonder a god-tier powerhouse like him didn’t seem much stronger than those in the Divine Realm. Although he didn’t understand why the opponent had suppressed his power and hadn’t killed him with a single strike, the Yellow Dragon knew that the next attack would be earth-shattering. Unlike the Yellow Dragon, Lin Er and the others were overjoyed after being shocked. This was the true strength of the ancient ancestor. “Die, brat!” the ancient ancestor roared, turning into a beam of white light as his divine spear shot forward at blinding speed, too fast to see with the naked eye. Lin Er and the others only saw an extreme flash of light high in the sky. Just as the Yellow Dragon summoned his Five Directions Flags, the Bagua Purple Longevity Robe, and other magical artifacts to protect himself and unleash the true power of the Immortal Pavilion’s divine weapon, suddenly, a scream was heard—the ancient ancestor stopped mid-air, clutching his head in pain as his body convulsed. Everyone was stunned by this unexpected turn of events. Even the Yellow Dragon was shocked by this sudden change. What was going on?

Huang Long’s eyes shone golden as he unleashed his divine vision, but due to the opponent’s divine power protection, he could only vaguely see that something seemed to be causing trouble in their mind. Could it be that earlier, the opponent had been suppressing their divine power to prevent this thing from causing chaos? Huang Long thought to himself.

At that moment, the ancient ancestor acted wildly and began attacking indiscriminately. Under his random assaults, the ground around them cracked apart, and all buildings turned to dust.

“Great Emperor, let’s leave now!” Gai Li said anxiously to Lin Er, realizing the situation was dire.

Lin Er and the other saints from the Holy Lands also watched in shock as the scene changed. Hearing Gai Li’s words, Lin Er hesitated.

“Great Emperor, don’t hesitate—leave now!” The other saints also spoke up.

Just as Lin Er was about to nod in agreement to leave, suddenly, a figure rushed forward, followed by a massive force that pressed down like a giant mountain. He heard countless screams in his ears, felt as if he were floating in the clouds, then his vision blurred and he could hear nothing anymore.

High above, Huang Long watched in astonishment as Lin Er and the saints from the Blizzard Empire were sent flying by their mad ancient ancestor!

Without having to guess, Huang Long knew what would happen to those who were sent flying by a god-tier powerhouse. Not to mention Lin Er and the saints from the Blizzard Empire—even the Dragon Emperor of the dragon race would become a dead dragon if struck like that.

The ancient ancestor seemed unaware that he had sent Lin Er and the others flying, then continued to bombard the surroundings before heading toward the palace of the Blizzard Empire.

Daina was inside the palace, planning how to deal with the few who had escaped from the Zhao family, such as Zhao Yang. Suddenly, a loud explosion shook the entire palace, causing chaos and panic.

Startled, Daina stepped out of the Wind and Moon Palace and ordered a panicked maid, “Why the panic? What’s going on?!”

The maid, seeing it was Daina, calmed slightly. Just as she was about to answer, a gust of energy rushed from a nearby palace, instantly engulfing Daina and the maid.

Huang Long followed closely behind, frowning as he watched the opponent’s frenzied attacks. But at this moment, he couldn’t approach either.

Within several miles around the opponent, the air was filled with overwhelming divine light energy.

After a series of wild attacks, the opponent seemed to regain some clarity and gradually stopped attacking.

After his mental state improved considerably, the ancient ancestor looked at everything before him and was shocked. But just then, darkness suddenly covered the sky above. Alarmed, he looked up to see a golden tower as tall as a hundred-zhang mountain descending upon him.

After a series of fierce attacks, his divine energy had dwindled, leaving him feeling powerless. As he tried to dodge, the golden tower emitted waves of golden light, forcing him back. Instantly, the tower pressed down on him.

A loud roar echoed across the ground, causing vibrations that lasted for a long time. With a thought, Huang Long intended to recall the Group of Immortals Pavilion. Suddenly, green light flashed inside the pavilion, followed by the emergence of roots.

What was this? The Netherworld Divine Tree!

Huang Long was astonished as he saw the tree extend its roots into the ancient ancestor’s body, continuously sucking out his divine energy. In an instant, the ancient ancestor withered away.

A scream was heard.

“Cough, cough… I, I am Lin Youwu… Youwu… I never expected to end up like this!” After a long while, a faint voice came from the deep pit on the ground.

Lin Youwu! The ancient ancestor mentioned by Lin Er was actually Emperor Youwu, the founder of the Youwu Empire over six thousand years ago?!
