Shouts and howls embroiled in a murderous aura and destructive force exploded outwards in the four directions. Faraway, mountains shook as fissures and cracks split the barrennd, and the thick dark clouds of devil qi and death qi actually dispersed from the four odd beasts and Three Skull Ancestors’ power.


    Massive corpses of ancientherspirits piled high on the horizon, surrounded by a deep, intricate w and palm prints pattern.


    A strange stench soon permeated the air within the one hundred million li radius,ing from the ancientherspirits’ corpses.


    This stench smelled like decay and death. It was appallingly unpleasant since an ancientherspirit did not consist of any real flesh and blood and was a unique existence formed from devil qi and death qi in the Famish Devil Ancient Battlefield space.


    When a certain amount of this ‘stench’ entered the body, even Emperor Realm experts would be hard-pressed to detoxify themselves and would get corroded to death.


    But this stench was futile against the Three Skull Ancestors, four odd beasts, and the Ice Dragons.


    The killings continued.


    While Huang Xiaolong continued refining the ze Devil Stele, the brilliant light from the ze Devil Stele shone brighter and stronger, awakening and attracting more ancientherspirits that were in slumber.


    Moreover, the ancientherspirits that awakened were more powerful. As time passed, the attacks were dominated by Tenth Order Emperor Realm ancientherspirits.


    Then again, even Emperor Realm ancientherspirits could only be reduced to dregs when their opponents were the Three Skulls Ancestors, four odd beasts, and seventy-plus Ice Dragons. No matter how many ancientherspirits came or how powerful they were, they could not break past the defensive line.


    Then again, as powerful as these ancientherspirits inside the Famish Devil Ancient Battlefield’s space were, and even though they had reached Tenth Order Emperor Realm strength, there were only a small number ofte-Tenth Order Emperor Realms. At most, only one or two appeared. Peakte-Tenth Order Emperor Realm strength was lesser still. It had been several days since the ancientherspirits had started attacking. No peakte-Tenth Order Emperor Realm ancientherspirit had yet appeared.


    Even so, the Three Skull Ancestors did not dare to rx their vignce.


    ording to an old rumor, there was a Sovereign Realm ancientherspirit inside this Famish Devil Ancient Battlefield.


    Though it was said that the Sovereign Realm ancientherspirit was in slumber most of the time, what if it was awakened by the noises Huang Xiaolong was making?


    Two months soon went by.


    The number of attacking ancientherspirits reduced gradually.


    Perhaps, they had decided to give up after learning they couldn’t break past the Three Skull Ancestors and the others’ defensive line.


    Huang Xiaolong’s figure inside the pit hadpletely disappeared in the brilliant lights. Others could barely make out the ze Devil Stele and the outline of a giant spinning egg.


    Severalyers of light surrounded the bright, shining egg, forming a thick, brilliant eggshell. Huang Xiaolong sat at the center within the eggshell, continuously devouring the ze Devil Stele’s brilliant light.


    The brilliant light contained an indescribable amount of energy. It was far greater than Huang Xiaolong had imagined. Not only was the ze Devil Stele’s energy greater than the Blood Eye Devil Stele, but it was also higher than the Myriad Curses Devil Stele by many times.


    At this point, Huang Xiaolong’s cultivation had reached the peak of mid-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm. Although he was still some distance away from advancing to thete-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm, his cultivation was rising so fast that it could only be described as shocking.


    In the middle of the egg’s internal space, Huang Xiaolong had an illusion of being transported to the beginning of time, the Chaos Era, or perhaps the Grandmist Era.


    Faint threads of chaos qi emerged around him.


    Despite the paltry amount of chaos qi, the chaos qi flowed consistently and umted steadily.


    As chaos qi increased, Huang Xiaolong’s three supreme godheads, body, and soul began to change.


    Silk thin threads of chaos light appeared in the vast ocean of godforce inside his three supreme godheads. These chaos lights were actually threads of chaosw.


    Half a year went by.


    Huang Xiaolong quivered as he broke through to thete-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm!


    Following Huang Xiaolong’s breakthrough, the shiny egg doubled in size.


    Huang Xiaolong’s three supreme godheads were glistening, and inside, the chaos lights were more intense. These chaos lights had gradually increased in number, lighting up every corner of the space within his godhead.


    If an Emperor Realm expert could see the changes taking ce inside Huang Xiaolong’s godhead, he would be shocked senseless because these changes would only happen to peakte-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm, who was about to break through to Emperor Realm.


    In order for peakte-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm cultivators to step into Emperor Realm, and to break through sessfully, one’s godhead, soul, and physical body needed to evolve sessfully. None of the aspects could go missing.


    Even if one aspects’ evolution were to go missing, the breakthrough to Emperor Realm was bound to fail.


    The ocean of godforce in his godhead began to merge within the power of these chaosws, while his soul slowly gained the ability to manifest will. As for his body, every inch of flesh, and every drop of his blood were brimming with the power of chaosw.


    It needs to be stressed that these evolutions only took ce within a peakte-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm cultivator as they attempted to break through to Emperor Realm. Huang Xiaolong was still ate-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm yet his evolution had started!


    No, more urately, he had begun to experience these changes while still at a peak mid-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm.


    The earlier one’s evolution began, the higher was the probability of sessful evolution. This directly increased the chances of one’s breakthrough to Emperor Realm.


    There was some supreme godhead geniuses’ evolution that had begun after several thousand years, even ten thousand years after their cultivation had reached the peak ofte-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm.


    For one’s godhead, soul, and body to begin evolving at thete-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm like Huang Xiaolong was unprecedented.


    As time flowed by, the speed of Huang Xiaolong’s evolution became faster. The blood flowing in his veins resembled a great roaring river, rushing through his veins, glistening and emitting a rich chaos qi.


    His ocean of godforce inside his three supreme godheads was bubbling like boiling water, filling the rest of the space with chaos energy vapors.


    As Huang Xiaolong evolved, a year’s time had passed.


    Huang Xiaolong’s cultivation had reached the peak ofte-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm.


    When Huang Xiaolong advanced to the peakte-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm, his body was akin to a giant whale, frenziedly devouring the ze Devil Stele’s brilliant lights.


    The eggshell over Huang Xiaolong’s body had grown too big for the pit that was ten meters deep and several hundred square feet big. Now, the shiny egg had overgrown the pit and was actually making the pit bigger.


    The shiny egg resembled an invisible giant hand that was pushing the earth wall around it.


    Due to the giant egg’s pushing against the walls, the Three Skull Ancestors naturally felt the tremors across the ground. At first, they did not think too much of it, but as the tremors grew more intense, they couldn’t help feeling curious.


    “What’s going on?” The middle of the Three Skull Ancestors, Liu Zifan, eximed in surprise.


    The three of them perked up their ears, hearing noises of shifting ground as if something was about to break out from the ground.


    At the same time, the energy flowing out from underground gave them strong sense pressure.


    “Could it be that His Majesty has already broken through to the Emperor Realm?” The one on the left, Liu Zhisen, took a wild guess.


    “Not so fast, would it?” Another one, Liu Ziwei, said uncertainly.


    After all, it hasn’t been three years since Huang Xiaolong had started refining the ze Devil Stele.


    Before, Huang Xiaolong was only a peak early-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch Realm, not even a mid-Tenth Order Heavenly Monarch. It was hard for him to believe Huang Xiaolong’s cultivation could rise so fast.
