My Rich Wife Chapter 2974 The Immortal Emperor and the Path of Heaven
Previously on My Rich Wife...
"How frightening! He shattered my restraints amid the chaos in an instant. Moreover, the might of this Heavenly Path Sea belongs to me now. Ah, so this is truly the Path of Heaven."
Lucifer whispered to himself. His power's origin felt boundless.
In a flash, he ascended from the Tribulation Sixth Level within the Saint World straight to the pinnacle of the God Realm.
Even the mightiest Lord of Origin experienced such a staggering transformation in mere seconds.
Immortal Crane and the veiled woman refrained from interrupting this shift, as the Path of Heaven's energy converged upon Lucifer. They could merely prepare solemnly for the ultimate confrontation.
Innumerable Great Daos of Origin fused into a regal crown. This crown formed from myriad distinct divinities.
The divinities belonging to the Lords, the might of the Guardian.
A brilliant radiance emanated from the crown while layers upon layers of origin power surged into it.
For a prolonged moment, Lucifer positioned himself before the crown. Such authority transcended countless realms. Even in the exalted era of the human race's supremacy, it symbolized ultimate sovereignty. It rivaled the paramount stature of an Immortal Emperor.
With composure, Lucifer gradually dropped to one knee.
Indeed, this stood as the most straightforward decision. A single restraint from the Path of Heaven could plunge him back into mortality.
The divine authority here was something he could never attain through his own efforts in a lifetime. All he required was to pledge his devoted allegiance.
Nothing more.
Myriad vibrant hues bloomed across the crown, as though scrutinizing Lucifer's previous existence.
Gradually, the crown descended upon his head, and abruptly, the cosmos plunged into obscurity.
At the edge of the vast horizon, no illumination lingered. Then, in the following instant, a pair of cold eyes abruptly materialized, akin to the universe's most luminous star igniting suddenly.
A tangible wave of energy burst forth across the cosmic void.
Boom!
Shadows of nine colossal tombs materialized steadily in the emptiness.
An archaic and primal force ascended skyward from within those nine tombs.
Boom!
Amid the dreadful blast, fissures spread across the tombs' exteriors.
Energy amassed in the veiled woman's grasp.
As her fist struck out, the whole realm appeared to tremble.
A captivating array of rainbow lights cascaded into the barren cosmos.
A realm gradually unfolded. It marked a fresh world, a novel order.
In this instant, every being across the universe observed the clash. Even common folk could witness it via the Upper Dome.
Despite the vast separation of innumerable realms, these supreme human forces projected down into the mortal domain.
Even demon beasts lacking awakened awareness ceased their struggles then, quietly sensing the fearsome clash of energies.
The two shadowy powers relentlessly consumed one another.
With this shift, Eternal Kingdom unleashed another surge of potent dark energy.
It engulfed the Darkness Supreme God within its domain.
"Impossible! How does your divinity retain any strength? It appears your power hasn't been stripped away!"
A roar of utter incredulity escaped the Darkness Supreme God.
As the Path of Heaven forged the Lords' crown, all its energies became inaccessible for mobilization.
Yet, Xiao Sheng's Eternal Kingdom suffered only grave wounds. The energy lingered undissipated.
"Da*n it!"
Dark rain poured onto Xiao Sheng's form, eliciting a furious bellow from him.
If only he had a bit more time?
Xiao Hai sighed deeply and materialized at his side.
Sorrow etched his features as well.
In truth, Xiao Sheng's journey proved immensely formidable. He forged his way leveraging dark power as the foundation.
The culmination of this force would eventually surpass the sea, though time now eluded him. Its potential stretched to infinity, possibly crowning him among the mightiest Immortal Emperors.
Silently, Xiao Hai observed the fray.
What of it, even if he ascended to Immortal Emperor?
In bygone days, Immortal Emperors wielded immense might, yet they perished all the same.
"This energy never surfaced in the Primordial Chaos, the Path of Heaven Division, the Supreme of Divine Land, or the Era of Annihilation. It feels like a force from another dimension. Could this be the might of a past Immortal Emperor?"
Xiao Hai probed the energy intently. At that juncture, he also perceived the veiled woman's power across nine lives.
That force had utterly shattered this world's seal, forging a novel pathway.
It led to another realm unseen by any below Immortal Emperor rank.
A sorrowful wail burst from that realm, and a tidal surge of power forced entry into this one.
Two colossal waves, one crimson and one ebony, invaded the universe.
The Black Dragon and the Undying Bird.
Hiss!
These marked two divine beasts from the epic conflict.
Slain once by the Path of Heaven, these divine beasts had revived.
Their savage gazes fixed on Lucifer. Instantly, the two forms morphed into colossal surges barreling toward him.
Apocalypse!
Lucifer's eyes snapped open, and the obscurity before him vanished.
Heavenly Path Sea fully dispersed, merging into Lucifer's being.
The Great World Seal!
With a flick of his finger, Lucifer summoned thousands of realms layering atop one another.
The myriad worlds he called forth encircled the black dragon.
Intense gravitational pull dragged the entire expanse downward at breakneck pace.
Within a moment, the Undying Bird's scarlet blaze struck Lucifer.
The veiled woman unleashed her strike. This unadorned blow bore every ounce of valor amassed through the ages.
The entire cosmos flushed crimson.
One Origin, Two Elements, Three Talents, Four Symbols, Five Elements, Six Directions, Seven Stars, Eight Trigrams, Nine Palaces, Ten Directions.
The cosmos commenced breaking apart, dissolving into myriad emblems.
Origin power morphed into a garment that cloaked Lucifer's frame.
In that fleeting instant, every emblem converged into a singular focus.
That represented the primordial force shaping this cosmos.
One Origin, whence all prosperity springs.
Lucifer's fingers curled as if seizing a sphere.
Effortlessly, he countered the veiled woman's assault.
Instantly, the pervasive crimson glow faded, restoring the cosmos to shadow.
The veiled woman's form hurtled backward. A discernible rift in the void pierced by that awful force.
"All of you labored endlessly to break free from this world. None of you accept its departure. You reject my will."
"Then behold clearly how insignificant your might becomes once you defy the Path of Heaven."
The detached voice brimmed with fearsome wrath.
With those words alone, the realm shifted through endless hues.
The veiled woman sustained a grievous wound from that single strike.
The mask upon her visage fractured, unveiling her exquisite features.
