The Lord's Empire (Part 3)

Chapter 1167-1171

It seemed that this Emperor was not so terrifying; this was understandable because the main requirement of the Ten Thousand Dragon Stage was one's Fate.

This Emperor's natural endowments were naturally exceptional and as an Emperor, the amount of Fate he had would be like an ocean, so everyone was convinced of this. However, the Ancient Stem Rankings was based on strength, and without true strength, all of that was meaningless.

Moreover, from his current performance, that Emperor seemed like he could only rank below Gu Jian. Some had said that he was an existence above the Ancient Stem Domain, but that was evidently an exaggeration.

Seeing Zhao Fu being blasted back by Gu Jian's river of swords, everyone felt sure as to Zhao Fu's strength. They no longer felt as much respect or as much worry because this Emperor was not all that much.

Yin Ruoshi slightly frowned; this Emperor was not as strong as she had expected; perhaps she would have had a chance against him.

A trace of disappointment appeared in Bai Haoran's eyes; it seemed that he would not have to act, as Gu Jian would be enough to deal with that Emperor.

The Elder from the Ten Thousand Dragon Financial Group also looked quite disappointed; he had never thought that this Emperor would fall at a disadvantage against an attack from Gu Jian. However, he was the destined person, so he was still esteemed within the Ten Thousand Dragon Financial Group.

The main reason for this was because Zhao Fu only had Stage 9 Cultivation, while Gu Jian had long since stepped into the Saint Realm; the difference in their cultivations was not just a bit.

The major figures were also slightly surprised; they had been quite excited to see this battle, but the Emperor was evidently incapable of fighting against Gu Jian.

After being blasted backwards, Zhao Fu's body was covered by the river of swords, and he was continuously attacked by the massive sword qi. The sword qi continuously tore at Zhao Fu's body, making him feel immense pain.

"Arghhh!" Zhao Fu loudly roared as he released all of the power from his Sovereign bloodline. He felt as if his blood was burning, and countless traces of Emperor's aura flowed out, covering the surrounding 1,000 meters.

"Roar! Roar! Roar..." Nine dragon's roars sounded out as a sovereign might weighed down on everyone's bodies, causing them to feel as if their bodies and minds were sinking. Countless people knelt on the ground as they were affected by this Emperor's aura.

Even Bai Haoran and Yin Ruoshi's expressions fell as they felt a power forcing them to kneel. Even the major figures on the viewing platforms felt this, but because their cultivations were too high, they could easily quash this pressure.

Zhao Fu very rarely released the full power of his bloodline; those below the Sovereign bloodline would all be affected.

The Emperor's aura that seemed to be able to cause anything to submit clashed with the river of swords and did not show any weakness at all. Massive gales blew out, and the arena continuously cracked; by now, no one dared to remain around the arena.

Seeing that there was no way of breaking through this Emperor's aura, Gu Jian's gaze became serious as he flew into the sky with the river of swords, which spun around him. The river of swords formed an enormous sword qi vortex, stirring the heavens and earth.

The world seemed to gradually darken as a massive gale blew and lightning flashed. An apocalyptic aura descended, causing people's souls to tremble.

Under this world-destroying sword qi, even Zhao Fu's body slightly trembled. He felt an unprecedented sense of crisis, and the Killing Sword Intent that had been suppressed within his body started to lose control.
