Chapter 1403
Chapter 1403
The celestial officials, led by the Li family patriarch, were perfectly aware of this.
Even in the mortal realm where spiritual energy is extremely scarce, they still managed to reach the Great Perfection of the Saint Rank by relying on the blood and souls of their clansmen.
Without the subsequent injection of spiritual energy, it would be difficult for them to maintain a high-intensity standoff.
What's more, now...
Several patriarchs have been firmly controlled by these martial artists from the mortal realm.
In addition, there is no hope of changing their fate within their own family group.
If this continues, all of their ancestors may perish here.
It should be noted that once Zhu Youwei completes the [Dragon Soars Through the Void], she will block their path back to the Heavenly Realm.
After being trapped in the mortal realm, it lost the continuous support of spiritual energy.
They can only be worn down by each other little by little.
Therefore……
They chose 'living as long as heaven and earth'—using their own divine souls as a guide to forcibly break the seals of the gates of hell and the gates of heaven.
At that time, both the Earth Demons and the Heavenly Officials will flood into the mortal realm.
These so-called supreme experts in the mortal realm are left with nothing but a life they cannot live or die.
"not good!"
"They sacrificed the souls of the gods."
"It has drawn down heavenly tribulation and earthly punishment, and entered the mortal realm."
"Master Tianyi, protect His Majesty."
At this moment, Yuan Tiangang, who had already vaguely sensed the might of Heaven and the Fiends of Earth, shouted in panic.
It's not just him...
Even Zhang Sanfeng, Tianyi Daoren, and other mortal martial artists who were cooperating with him felt a trace of fear.
In their view, the Li family ancestors were giving up entirely.
Since we can't graft it onto another plant, let's just destroy it!
I'm not going to drag this out with you guys any longer.
"Protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor!"
Compared to the sealing of the Gates of Hell, the martial artists present were more concerned about the arrival of the 'Heavenly Tribulation'.
At this time, Zhu Youwei, with the help of Tianyi Daoren, was already residing outside the Tianxuan Gate.
He was using the energy of the dragon vein and the blood of his ancestors to return to the source, and was performing the [Dragon Soaring Through the Void] technique.
Give her another 15 minutes, that will be enough.
But now?
The heavens and earth are in turmoil.
The vast sky, especially in front of the Heavenly Profound Gate, was filled with the roar of thunder.
An overwhelming divine might rushed directly towards her and the Heavenly Daoist behind her.
And at this moment...
From the imperial mausoleum beneath their feet, Yuan Tiangang's hoarse voice could be heard reminding them.
"His Majesty……"
Before Tianyi Daoist could finish speaking, Zhu Youwei, who stubbornly faced the tribulation lightning, had eyes filled with determination and unyielding spirit.
"Heavenly Master..."
"I am the ruler of the Great Ming Dynasty."
"To rule the entire world."
"At the same time, we must also be responsible for the people of the world."
"If we give up now, not only will all our previous efforts be in vain, but what will become of all the martial arts practitioners in the world?"
"What should be done about the people of the world?"
"Anyone can survive in the entire Ming Dynasty."
"Only I... cannot."
"Celestial Master, please escort me one more way."
"If things really don't go well..."
"I, by my decree, seal the heavens."
"I also earnestly request the Celestial Master to continue to assist You Ning and safeguard this Ming Dynasty."
There was not a trace of fear in Zhu Youwei's eyes when she said this.
Full of fighting spirit, she only showed any emotion when she glanced at her lower abdomen.
“Xu Lang…”
"Youwei owes you this lifetime."
"I can't be by your side to be a wife and mother."
"If there is an afterlife."
"I will not become an empress, nor will I rule the country."
"I'll just stay by your side obediently, adding fragrance to the chili oil and preparing the soup with my delicate hands."
After muttering these words to herself, Zhu Youwei's eyes were filled with tears.
Affected by the lightning tribulation, she had no time to touch her lower abdomen or say goodbye to her child.
Only through this fleeting thought can I bid farewell to Xu Shan and their unborn child!
"Your Majesty, please rest assured!"
"I will risk my life to help His Majesty seal the heavens."
"It will also help the princess to restore the lost territories."
Those martial artists from the mortal realm who vaguely overheard the conversation between the Heavenly Daoist and His Majesty already knew their Empress's final decision.
As the supreme empress of the Ming Dynasty, she still dared to risk her life to seal the heavens.
How could these martial arts practitioners be afraid of death?
"Escort, escort!"
"His Majesty……"
"Old servant, I will take this calamity for you first."
'bass.'
After saying that, Hong Gu, who had been stabbing the acupoint, leaped up.
"His Majesty……"
"The Duke of Xu has given his order."
"Let your servants protect you with their lives."
"This servant is crippled and deserves no pity for death."
"If I can shield His Majesty from even a few calamities, then so be it."
As he shouted these words, Lin Pingzhi, along with the experts from the Eastern Depot, charged headlong into the clouds and into the surging lightning tribulation.
"The emperor's personal guards are still alive."
"How could we allow Your Majesty to put yourself in such danger?"
"All Imperial Guards, listen to my command."
"Have!"
"No surrender, only death."
When Ji Gang uttered these words on behalf of his adopted son Xu Shan, all the Imperial Guards present, regardless of their injuries, leaped to their feet and hysterically added, "No retreat!"
"Our sect is deeply grateful for the Emperor's grace."
Only then can one concentrate on spiritual practice.
"now……"
"The heavenly beings are causing trouble, and the earthly demons are making a fuss."
"We cultivators will use our bodies as shields to help the Empress of the Great Ming Dynasty seal the heavens."
'Swish.'
After shouting these words, the martial arts masters, led by Song Yuanqiao, all stood up.
In an instant...
Their figures filled the sky completely.
It blotted out the sky and concealed the calamity!
The light shone through and reflected their incredibly small yet exceptionally tall figures onto the faces of the Li family patriarch and others.
Staring wide-eyed at the scene, they kept muttering, "They're crazy, they're all crazy."
"You're like a mantis trying to stop a chariot."
"You're trying to fight a losing battle!"
"You are overestimating yourselves."
"The might of Heaven cannot be stopped, nor can the calamity of Heaven."
"A creative way to court death?"
At this point, the Li family patriarch revealed a sinister sneer.
"The Heavenly Realm will grant your wish."
"Zhang Sanfeng...do you really think that you can stop all this by having them rush headlong into the fire like moths to a flame?"
"You seem to have forgotten something."
"Are they all protecting the emperor?"
"Who's protecting you?"
"Ok?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Sanfeng and Yuan Tiangang, who were confronting and fighting against him, instantly realized a major problem—the Gates of Hell!
They all ascended to the heavens to protect the emperor, revealing a major flaw in the defenses of the Gates of Hell.
"Little, be careful..."
"The Gate of Hell."
"Heavenly tribulation and earthly punishment, there's also earthly punishment."
Before Yuan Tiangang could finish speaking, the Lu Clan Ancestor, who was imprinted with the Dao Seal, disregarded his severely injured soul and chanted: "Heavenly Thunder God, Earthly Yama God, the two tigers emerge together, all demons and evil spirits turn to dust, I obey the command of the Supreme Lord Laozi!"
"Edict!"
"Hehehe!"
"It's too late. Everything is too late."
"You only care about the Heavenly Profound Gate and only think about relieving the emperor's worries."
"Did you ever imagine that your back would be attacked by an earth demon?"
"break!"
"The Gate of Hell..."
"open."
'Boom.'
As the roar of the Lu Clan Ancestor faded, the Gates of Hell, which had been sealed by Yuan Tiangang and the array masters of the Divine Strategist Pivot with their blood souls, were suddenly blasted open.
