"In warfare, deception is key. The sword's gleam was just a blinding trick. I knew you would choose me."

Xia Feng sneered behind him, then abruptly drew the Qingxue Sword, spilling blood everywhere.

The thirteenth Emperor Xia flew over, immediately laughing heartily, "Good, good, good. As expected of Xia Tianming's grandson, your battle experience is indeed exceptional!"

From his angle earlier, he could clearly see. When Xia Feng's sword gleam covered the sky with four colors of radiant light, rushing towards the seventh Cyan Emperor, Xia Feng was hidden behind the gleam, completely obscured from the Cyan Emperor's view.

As the seventh Cyan Emperor gathered all his strength to counter Xia Feng's sword gleam, Xia Feng was already upon him.

With a flash, the defenseless back appeared right in front of him.

Hidden within Divine Techniques, such a ghostly attack method probably only this brat Xia Feng could come up with.

This seventh Cyan Emperor died without grievance.

"Yun Qingxue is dead, no!"

The remaining Cyan Emperors, upon seeing this, couldn't help but cry out in grief.

Their eyes reddened, and in their sorrow and indignation, their combat power unexpectedly increased a few more notches.

But ultimately, it was a futile effort.

After slaying the seventh Cyan Emperor, the completely liberated thirteenth Emperor Xia and Xia Feng immediately joined the other battles.

The eighth Cyan Emperor was still entangled with Xia Donghai, but within a second, he was facing three opponents.

Desperation and collapse appeared on his face; it was already hard to fight one-on-one.

Now one against three, facing three Celestial Tier Martial Sovereigns whose realms were in no way inferior to his own, the eighth Cyan Emperor's defense instantly crumbled.

In almost three breaths of time, the eighth Cyan Emperor had endured hundreds of rapid attacks, his entire body covered in dense wounds.

Not long after, the eighth Cyan Emperor plunged straight down, with no signs of life.

The eighth Cyan Emperor, fallen.

The second Cyan Emperor instantly couldn't handle it anymore; two Cyan Emperors had already died today.

Moreover, seeing four additional Celestial Tier Martial Sovereigns from the Great Xia Empire charging towards the ninth Cyan Emperor, if no changes were made, death would be his final outcome.

"Withdraw from the Imperial Capital, head to the border!" The second Cyan Emperor practically roared out this command, "There's still a million-strong army at the border, dying in the Imperial Capital is not worth it!"

"Everyone follow my orders, withdraw with me!"

"Do you still wish to return to lead the army? It's too late!"

Xia Qingyang likewise roared in anger, "You think you can still escape today? Let's see if I give you a chance to rise again!"

"Hold them back, do not let a single one escape!"

The ninth Cyan Emperor had already rushed halfway forward, but suddenly countless shards of ice formed on his legs, drastically slowing his speed.

In the instant after Xia Qingyang shouted, Xia Feng had already unleashed the Extreme Ice Domain of the Dao of Extreme Ice.

The sky battlefield was instantly covered by the Extreme Ice Domain, and in the face of extreme cold, the former Cyan Emperors' movements were all restricted.

This battle was like knocking over a domino chain, each move linked to the next.

Without the external Martial Sovereigns, the number of Martial Sovereigns in the Great Xia Empire now exceeded that of the Rizhao Empire tenfold.

The ninth Cyan Emperor, as the weakest Martial Sovereign, met his fate once four opponents were upon him, the outcome was clear.

Soon, the Heavenly Dao hummed again, yet another Cyan Emperor fell silently.

Fighting a life-and-death battle, merely stalling like this is truly sickening.

The former Cyan Emperors wanted to fight for their lives, but the former Emperors Xia didn't give them the chance, evading all sorts of attacks, not even considering counterattacks.

When they wanted to escape, they unleashed all sorts of attack methods, keeping them in a state of passive defense without any time to flee.

The sixth Cyan Emperor, fifth Cyan Emperor, fourth Cyan Emperor.

The combined strength of these three was that of Celestial Tier Ninth Layer Martial Sovereigns, yet under the combined assault of the former Emperors Xia, they still ended up heading helplessly down the Path to the Underworld.

The second and third Cyan Emperors were indeed stronger, but against the numerical superiority of the Great Xia Empire, it was merely a matter of time before they met their end.

After the remaining Cyan Emperors fell and the second and third Cyan Emperors couldn't escape, practically each would have to fight four strong opponents of the same realm.

At this point, even defending against injury was considered a Herculean feat, let alone counterattacking.

The current Cyan Emperor was also on the brink of death, his weakest strength no match for Xia Feng, while the rest of the ancients ignored him completely, directly joining the group assault on the two major Cyan Emperors, treating the current Cyan Emperor like a ball for Xia Feng to play with.

A Celestial Tier Fifth Layer Martial Sovereign was simply too weak.

"You forced me, you all forced me, if we must die then let's die together!" The current Cyan Emperor, watching as the former Cyan Emperors died one by one, with the two ancients about to collapse and unable to even counter under Xia Feng's attacks, finally couldn't hold back.

He ferociously took out the Demon Crystal he carried, then swiftly crushed it.

In an instant, endless Demonic Qi surged out of the Demon Crystal, then invaded his mouth, eyes, and ears.

Almost instantly, the current Cyan Emperor Yun Changlin transformed into a half-human, half-demon monstrosity.

Black scales sprouted from his skin, his eyes turned blood red, the last remaining vestige of his Spiritual Wisdom driving his pupils to glare fixedly at Xia Feng, emitting an inhuman, terrifying roar.

Moreover, his realm was rapidly ascending, in almost an instant he broke through from Celestial Tier Fifth Layer Martial Sovereign to the limit of Celestial Tier Ninth Layer Martial Sovereign!

"What is this?" Sensing this strange aura, Xia Qingyang and the others immediately turned their heads, incredulous as they looked at the current Emperor Xia Yun Changlin.

"Yun Changlin, what are you doing?"

Yun Changlin roared skywards, most of his rationality already gone, not responding to the two emperors, instead launching a furious attack at Xia Feng.

The two major Cyan Emperors were also shocked, but upon feeling the terrifying aura emanating from Yun Changlin, they couldn't help but feel a slight thrill.

They could sense that this half-human, half-demon monstrosity in front of them was in no way inferior to Xia Qingyang!

Though they didn't know what method Yun Changlin used, having such a presence with them now gave them an extra hope of escape.

"Xia Feng, run!"

Xia Qingyang immediately shouted upon seeing the situation, he was too far from Xia Feng to intercept Yun Changlin who was now face to face with Xia Feng.

Xia Feng took a deep breath, gravely watching as Yun Changlin charged at him.

He deeply understood how strong a demonized Celestial Tier Martial Sovereign could be.

If Sun Yazhu hadn't used the Divine Artifact Purple Gold Cauldron to subdue the enemy back then, Xia Feng might have fallen at Elder Chongwu's hands.

At that time, Elder Chongwu, at Celestial Tier First Layer, managed to rise to Celestial Tier Fifth Layer. It wasn't impossible for Yun Changlin, now at Celestial Tier Fifth Layer, to break through to Xia Qingyang's realm.

Facing such a foe, Xia Feng had absolutely no chance of victory.

Thus, without hesitation, he fiercely reached towards his own abdomen.

"Crack!"

Nine shining Exquisite Hearts were extracted by Xia Feng, all crushed in one go!

"Ahhh!!"

The spiritual power provided by the nine shattered Exquisite Hearts was overwhelming, sweat poured down Xia Feng's body, and the pressure of the expansion forced him to let out a cry of pain.
