The Forbidden City had always been brightly lit and heavily guarded.

But now, the most important hall in the Forbidden City was actually being blocked by someone.

The surrounding guards all fainted. Lord Nine from the Taichu God Dynasty was very confident of himself.

He spread his arms and looked at Emperor De proudly.

After recovering for a month, he had been observing this world all this time. It was only after he thoroughly understood this world that he came here tonight.

Just as he said…

In this era, he was the King!

"The Taichu God Dynasty. This is the God Dynasty of the last era, but it has long collapsed and no longer exists. You guys actually want to rebuild it in this era?" Emperor De looked at Lord Nine in surprise and anger.

"It collapsed long ago?" Lord Nine snorted coldly.

"The Taichu God Dynasty didn't collapse at all back then. When the spiritual energy started to weaken, we made preparations to store the treasures, descendants, and powerhouses of the Taichu God Dynasty. Then, we sealed ourselves and waited for the arrival of this era. I am the pioneer of the Taichu God Dynasty," Lord Nine said in a loud and clear voice.

"Then, your God Dynasty has already disappeared, yet you still want to rebuild it?" Emperor De gritted his teeth and looked at him angrily.

"This country and this world all belong to the Taichu God Dynasty. It's us who gave up the world and gave your Yuhua God Dynasty a chance. Now, you guys should return this world to us," Lord Nine said coldly.

He was confident of his victory and wasn't afraid of Emperor De having any backup plans.

Hence, he was very gleeful. He hadn't talked so long with anyone after being sealed for such a long time.

At this moment, he wanted to show off.

Show off the foresight of the Taichu God Dynasty.

"What you said is like a joke. The world that the Yuhua God Dynasty conquered through fighting on horseback has been passed down for hundreds of years. You want to take it away with just a few words?" Emperor De mocked Lord Nine.

He was simply dreaming!

Dream on!

"This world no longer needs to fight on horseback. The era has changed!"

"I just need to catch you and I will be able to complete the change of the throne and change the world."

"The Yuhua God Dynasty that you manage has left behind such a good foundation. Our Taichu God Dynasty will inherit everything and modify it. We will change those ideals of yours. The world is very easy to change." Lord Nine sneered at Emperor De as if he was looking at prey. His eyes were very proud.

"You think I will cooperate with you?" Emperor De was so angry that he laughed.

"That's not up to you to decide. You probably don't know how powerful a person at the Void Returning Realm is. I can control your thoughts and make your every move follow my thoughts. Most of your subordinates have been sent out, right? I can also control that whatever Princess Yulin. This way, both you and her will listen to my orders. Can't I change the world that way?" Lord Nine said his plan fearlessly.

"You won't be able to control me. I'm Emperor De of the Yuhua God Dynasty, enjoying the destiny energy of the Yuhua God Dynasty." Emperor De gritted his teeth.

A golden light appeared behind him. It was resplendent and dazzling. The void slowly split open as the Golden Dragon of Destiny appeared.

Roar!

The Golden Dragon of Destiny roared. It gave a deafening roar throughout the palace.

But Lord Nine only raised his hand and squeezed lightly. The void was instantly sealed, and sound couldn't be transmitted.

He looked at the Golden Dragon of Destiny behind Emperor De and the Empress with surprise in his eyes. "Golden Dragon of Destiny. I didn't expect you to manage the Yuhua God Dynasty so well. It even gave birth to a Golden Dragon of Destiny!"

In the previous era, even at its peak, the Taichu God Dynasty didn't manage to form a Golden Dragon of Destiny that belonged to them

It was simply too difficult to do so.

It required the common people in the world to develop a great trust in the Yuhua God Dynasty.

The entire dynasty had to have an incomparably solid foundation.

Simply put, the people of the dynasty must believe and trust in it.

Only then would the Golden Dragon of Destiny be born.

Lord Nine looked at the Golden Dragon of Destiny behind Emperor De with red eyes. It wasn't as weak as it was in the beginning anymore, but now, the Golden Dragon of Destiny was angular and had a powerful aura. It was shining with golden light and was tens of meters tall.

"Our Yuhua God Dynasty is united. Don't even think about overthrowing the regime of the Yuhua God Dynasty!" Emperor De snorted coldly.

"I have to thank you for condensing the Golden Dragon of Destiny. This way, it will be a free gift for the Taichu God Dynasty. The Taichu God Dynasty shall take this Golden Dragon of Destiny!" Lord Nine looked at it greedily. He stretched out his hand into a claw and grabbed. He wanted to capture Emperor De and the Empress, then control the Golden Dragon of Destiny.

Rumble!

When this claw came out, the nearby space trembled. The power of the huge claw attack was very powerful, making it difficult for Emperor De and the Empress to breathe. It was full of pressure and difficult to withstand.

Ultimately, the gap between them and Lord Nine was too huge.

Fortunately, in the very next moment, the Golden Dragon of Destiny attacked. With a flick of its tail, an extremely huge aura crashed over.

Boom!

The tail collided with Lord Nine's cultivation technique. It was like two mountains colliding, producing an extremely intense sound wave and aura. It instantly broke the void control field set up by Lord Nine.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In an instant, energy fluctuations spread throughout the Forbidden City.

In the very next moment, the war machine next door opened his eyes. With a cold face, he attacked forcefully.

The war machine roared. Essence energy surged all over his body. He was like a divine furnace that shone with boundless light. His blood energy surged like a vast sea.

This was the war machine of the Spirit Platform Realm.

Boom!

He waved his arms forcefully and shot out nine chains condensed from the Great Dao. With a whoosh, they entangled together. They were extremely terrifying as they surged out and attacked Lord Nine.

Lord Nine's eyes turned gloomy. He didn't expect that the strike just now was blocked by the Golden Dragon of Destiny.

The Golden Dragon of Destiny shouldn't be so powerful. A Golden Dragon of Destiny that had just been condensed shouldn't have such power.

Such powerful might could only mean one thing.

The Yuhua God Dynasty was more popular with the common people than he imagined.

How could Lord Nine not be angry?

Coincidentally, the war machine was also alarmed at this moment and attacked, causing Lord Nine to shout coldly, "If you had recovered to your peak, I would have evaded you. But now that I'm stronger than you, what right do you have to behave atrociously in front of me?"

Boom!

Lord Nine took action. His palm and fingers were earthen-yellow in color, descending like yellow mud. He didn't use any world-shocking treasure skill, just calmly pressing forward.

But this ordinary finger of his was a powerful attack that was so complex—it returned to the basics.

This strike pressed down on the void. The space in front of Lord Nine rotted, becoming a land of devouring, and was dilapidated.

The war machine was instantly swept into this extremely terrifying energy. He was swept to other places and fell heavily to the ground.

"As I said, you've only recovered to the Spirit Platform Realm now, I'm not afraid of you. I've observed the Yuhua God Dynasty for a month, how could I not know these things?" Lord Nine snorted coldly.

This was also why top powerhouses like them weren't willing to appear in the early stages of the recovery of spiritual energy. This was because it would take a long time for them to recover.

When the spiritual energy was abundant and they unsealed themselves then, they would instantly possess powerful combat strength and no longer needed to recover slowly.

Lord Nine looked at Emperor De.

"The Golden Dragon of Destiny blocked that strike just now. It must be feeling terrible now." Lord Nine looked at the Golden Dragon of Destiny that had retreated behind Emperor De and sneered.

He saw that the tail of the Golden Dragon of Destiny had already cracked.

"The Yuhua God Dynasty shall become the wedding dress for the Taichu God Dynasty. Everything won't be a problem once I captured you." The light in Lord Nine's eyes was terrifying. His hands moved, and his True Qi transformed into an eagle that rushed out and flew into the sky. There was a golden sun in its mouth, and it dropped a thousand feet of golden light that resembled a waterfall.

Emperor De's body turned cold as he felt the danger.

But there was nothing he could do. He couldn't escape either. His surroundings were sealed by Lord Nine.

Emperor De looked on in despair. The Empress beside him was trembling, her face pale.

"Don't be afraid." Emperor De grabbed the Empress's hand and said firmly.

"I am the Emperor of the Yuhua God Dynasty. Even if I die, I will not be controlled by anyone!" Emperor De said firmly.

"That's not up to you!" Lord Nine chuckled.

The war machine that was thrown out instantly returned, wanting to stop Lord Nine.

But a single step too late would cause all the other steps to be late too.

The war machine could no longer catch up.

Amitabha!

At this moment, a huge Buddhist proclamation sounded as the huge golden body of Buddha descended.

Pu!

This eagle was suppressed by Buddha's golden body. The golden sun in its mouth exploded, turning the entire hall into a terrifying energy storm.

"Emperor De, please leave this place." Monk Fusan waved his palm and swept Emperor De and the Empress tens of thousands of feet away, avoiding this extremely terrifying energy impact at the critical moment.

"Damn bald donkey!" Lord Nine scolded. The eagle let out a sharp cry and flapped its wings. It actually broke through the golden body of Buddha and sent Monk Fusan flying with a bang.

"Emperor De, you can't escape!" Lord Nine turned around and grabbed towards Emperor De and the Empress.

"Thief, how dare you commit evil in the Yuhua God Dynasty!" Princess Yulin, the son of the Sword God, and the King of Independent Cultivators rushed over at this moment.

Princess Yulin shouted angrily. She unsheathed her sword and an extremely beautiful sword light slashed over.

The King of Independent Cultivators let out a long roar. His blood energy soared into the sky, dissipating the energy in the Great Council Hall that was about to explode. The exuberant life energy drowned the entire heaven and earth here.

This was a strange scene. Blood energy that resembled a great mountain shot out from the top of his head. Vital energy surged all over his body, surging like an ocean.

It was originally nighttime, but now, these dazzling energies dyed the night sky into a myriad of colors.

The son of the Sword God also drew his sword and executed his father's sword technique.

When Lord Nine saw that so many people had come, his eyes were filled with shame and anger. He had originally planned to complete the change of dynasties of the Yuhua God Dynasty without batting an eye. But now that there were so many variables, it would be very troublesome to clean up the mess.

"A group of people who are in the way, die!" Lord Nine was completely enraged.

He let out a loud roar, his aura devouring the mountains and rivers. His large hand slapped forward, and the eagle let out a cry. The intense energy impact almost wiped out the sky at this moment.

Boom!

In the very next moment, Lord Nine's powerful energy entered the eagle's body. The eagle instantly transformed, and a huge phoenix flew out from this huge energy. It seemed to be opening up the world, with chaos energy surging within.

The phoenix was extremely terrifying. With a flap of its wings, it severed the sword energies of Princess Yulin and the son of the Sword God. Then, with a cry, the energy impact hit the King of Independent Cultivators, causing him to spit out a large mouthful of blood.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The three of them fell to the ground, unable to stand up.

Lord Nine's body appeared on the scene, his eyes vicious. The phoenix flew above his head, displaying its powerful might.

"This world originally belonged to the Taichu God Dynasty. You guys are just a group of bandits. I'm just taking back what belongs to us," Lord Nine said coldly.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At this moment, the war machine rushed over.

His expression was cold and emotionless, like that of a doll. His spiritual energy was becoming more and more vigorous. When he threw a punch over, it was like a million volcanoes had erupted at once.

His terrifying aura had an incomparable sense of oppression to it.

"You're close to recovering to the Void Returning Realm, but you're still far away. You are no match for the current me!" Lord Nine didn't even look back as he executed the most powerful treasure skill of the Taichu God Dynasty.

Sacred Light of Taichu!

Boom!

Holy light covered the sky and earth. Every inch of space was filled with terrifying divine radiance, making one's soul tremble!

This strike directly struck the war machine. He suddenly trembled and directly smashed into a palace, causing the palace to collapse and the ground to tremble.

At this moment, Lord Nine spread his hands like before. Giving off a sense of loneliness from being invincible, he said, "At this moment, I am the king of this world!"

Emperor De watched in despair.

Princess Yulin watched with blood hanging from the corner of her mouth.

The others watched helplessly.

Lord Nine seemed to be truly invincible!

…

The fighting in the palace spread to the Cold Palace.

Lin Jiufeng silently looked at his finger. Using his finger as a sword, he made a slash in the air.

Clang!

Invisible sword energy directly shot out, passing through a hundred miles and descending on the Forbidden City.

Then, it silently streaked across Lord Nine's head.

Pu!

Lord Nine, who had just spread his arms and said that he was the king of the world, had his head and body split in two in the blink of an eye.

His head smashed to the ground. Blood spurted like a fountain.

There was a puzzled look in his eyes.

Who killed him?

Shouldn't he be invincible in this brand-new era?

Everyone was dumbfounded by Lord Nine's death.

What exactly happened?

Only Lin Jiufeng in the Cold Palace smirked and stated. "What a weak King!"
