Chapter 265: Transcendence in This Lifetime (Part Twenty-One)

Opposing Tian Mingzi was a purple-robed man, tall and imposing. Astonishing phenomena surrounded him, shaking the boundless space, and manifested nine other figures identical to himself, each wielding a knife, sword, or spear...
Each weapon was a powerful Emperor-level artifact, fused with his own Dao, possessing terrifying and boundless strength.
In an instant, they traversed infinite space.
The Ten Absolute Martial Emperor, the 'Transcendent' whose world was destroyed by Tian Mingzi.
Having gone out, his home was gone, all his relatives and friends were dead. The Ten Absolute Martial Emperor was determined to kill Tian Mingzi, even if they had been locked in a stalemate for millions of years, both sides exhausted.
"You are also from that world?"
The Ten Absolute Martial Emperor looked at the suddenly appearing Su Chen and Qin Wujie with some apprehension.
Although the two had not yet refined the 'Heart' of the Universe and become Transcendents, their strength was already formidable, at the peak of the First Tribulation of the Ruler realm.
Especially the golden-robed youth wielding the Nether Blade, which was at least a Dao-proving artifact at the peak of the Second Tribulation Ruler realm.
Reaching the Ruler realm, essentially becoming an 'Emperor' within a universe, and refining the 'Heart' of the Void Sea of ​​Time, grants the qualification to cultivate within it.
Ascending to immortality in the Void Sea of ​​Time requires enduring thirty-six tribulations and countless epochs, with only a sliver of hope for ascension.
The Ten Absolute Martial Emperor was a Third Tribulation Ruler, while the Heavenly Nether Emperor, though only at the early stage of the Second Tribulation Ruler, possessed terrifying talent. He had once transcended the Nine Heavenly Tribulations, becoming an Supreme Emperor. Once he transcended, he had the potential to become a supreme ruler of the twentieth tribulation or higher.
The Ten Absolute Martial Emperor knew he had to kill the Heavenly Nether Emperor at this moment.
Su Chen said, "Although we both come from that world, we share a common enemy."
The Heavenly Nether Emperor's expression changed: "We both come from that world, so why don't we eliminate the outsider together first? Then, we can settle our scores later!"
Su Chen refused.
Tian Mingzi roared, "Bastard! Fool!"
He was incredibly unlucky; just as he was about to successfully wear down the Ten Absolute Martial Emperors, two uninvited guests suddenly appeared.
Tian Mingzi tried to escape, but Su Chen immediately blocked his path. The Undying Nether Blade, wreathed in terrifying aura, cleaved through space with a single strike, blocking Tian Mingzi's escape route.
Qin Wujie, seeing this, laughed loudly, "You bastard! You tried to ambush me while I was undergoing my tribulation, how despicable! Now, die!"
Tian Mingzi: "Get out of my way!"
With just two moves, Qin Wujie was sent flying.
Seeing Qin Wujie sent flying, Su Chen couldn't help but feel sorry for him. Tian Mingzi had cultivated for millions of years, even refining a world and breaking through his shackles; his strength was no less than that of the former God Lord and the Great Demon Lord of Tai Cang. Without a peerless weapon like the Undying Nether Blade, Qin Wujie's survival after two blows was already a testament to his exceptional skill.
Seizing the opportunity, the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor directly attacked Tian Mingzi.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Although the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor didn't know what grudge Su Chen held against Tian Mingzi, he knew this was a golden opportunity.
Tian Mingzi roared, "Fools! You're all fools! You're just beings from another realm, why risk your lives to fight me?"
"You want me dead? I won't let you get away with this!"
Tian Mingzi unleashed his fury, his aura blazing, shattering one martial avatar after another of the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor's.
Su Chen, wielding the Undying Nether Blade, didn't deliver a fatal blow immediately.
"Fellow Daoist, what are you waiting for?!"
Faced with Tian Mingzi's counterattack, the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor, in dire straits, couldn't help but speak to Su Chen.
Upon hearing this, Su Chen directly slashed at Tian Mingzi.
The blade shattered the heavens, annihilating the Netherworld and shaking the very fabric of existence.
Tian Mingzi screamed in agony as one of his arms was severed by the Undying Nether Blade.
Seeing this, the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor immediately struck, shattering Tian Mingzi's physical body, blood staining the boundless space.
Seeing the situation turn against him, Tian Mingzi's primordial spirit abandoned the battle and attempted to flee.
Su Chen, wielding the Undying Nether Blade, intended to completely annihilate Tian Mingzi's primordial spirit.
At this, a barely perceptible glint appeared in the eyes of the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor.
With this strike,
Su Chen immediately reversed his blade, slashing towards the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor.
At the same moment, the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor, wielding a killing move, unleashed a terrifying imperial technique, also slashing towards Su Chen.
Having eliminated the threat of Tian Mingzi,
the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor's next targets were the relatively weaker Su Chen and Qin Wujie; he had no intention of letting them go.
Su Chen also understood the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor's intentions. Those not of his kind are bound to have different hearts, especially since Tian Mingzi had slaughtered the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor's world, destroying its lineage, and refining his family, friends, wife, and children.
After killing Tian Mingzi, the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor would certainly not let go of Tian Mingzi's universe. Without Tian Mingzi's obstruction, he would easily infiltrate that universe, slaughter all living beings, refine the 'heart' of the universe, and perhaps even advance his strength further.
The Ten Absolute Martial Emperor was somewhat surprised.
However, he didn't care.
"At best, it's just a weapon."
The Ten Absolute Martial Emperor had barely finished speaking.
The Undying Nether Blade, detached from Su Chen's hand, transformed into a living being. This being, clad in a black feathered robe, possessed a profound and dark aura, exuding unfathomable majesty. Netherfire ignited in the surrounding space, incinerating everything.
The deity within the Undying Nether Blade awakened.
Endless chants filled the heavens and earth.
However, those chants were filled with utter terror.
"The Undying Nether Emperor!"
"How is this possible?"
The Ten Absolute Martial Emperor was horrified.
The divine consciousness residing within that blade was actually that of a peak Third Tribulation Ruler!
Although this peak Third Tribulation Ruler lacked its former power, merely a remnant,
it still posed an unparalleled danger to the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor.
Terrifying!
This was yet another supreme ruler who had transcended the Ninefold Emperor Tribulation to attain Dao, with limitless potential!
One of the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor's martial avatars was instantly shattered.
He suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, his already severe injuries compounded by this attack.
Su Chen watched this scene with his hands behind his back.
The remnant body of the Undying Nether Emperor was his last resort.
However, if he could kill this formidable enemy, the Ten Absolute Martial Emperor, using it wouldn't be a loss.
“I am a member of the Transmigrator Alliance. If you kill me, the news will surely reach the Transmigrator Alliance, and then powerful members of the Transmigrator Alliance will surely come to annihilate you!”
“You are also a being from outside this world; you should know how powerful the Transmigrator Alliance is!”
The Ten Absolute Martial Emperor, severely injured, threatened Su Chen.
“The Transmigrator Alliance?”
Su Chen's expression was strange.
First the Main God Temple, then the Transmigrator Alliance?
Considering his identity, he seems to be a transmigrator too.
What kind of damn Transmigrator Alliance is this? They didn't even invite him!
Under the incredulous gaze of the Ten Absolute Martial Emperors, Su Chen unleashed the last of his Undying Nether Blade's power to kill them.
"Di Chen, if you don't come to help, I'm going to die!"
Qin Wujie exclaimed.
Having recovered from his injuries after being blasted away, he actually managed to stop Tian Mingzi's primordial spirit again.
