Chapter 52 – Crouching Dragon Empress’ Husband, Phoenix Chick Empress

"The Codex of Dominion."

"First Decree of Dominion: Spiritual Power Sealed, All Laws Return to the Void!"

Dongfang Liuli held a heavenly book formed by divine power, her eyes glowing with golden light. Her three thousand strands of black hair fluttered in the wind, her figure straight and imposing as she floated in the air, chanting incantations.

Immediately, Zhao Yuhuan felt a surge of terror. He realized that the flow of spiritual energy in his meridians had become sluggish and blocked. His divine sense, which originally could cover thousands of miles, now extended less than ten meters.

Even Black Star, which had fused with him, lost its connection.

"The Codex of Dominion, so this is your path?" Zhao Yuhuan spoke with difficulty, barely resisting the chaotic spatial currents in the alternate space.

Without the Black Star Secret Art and spiritual energy, he was instantly reduced to a lamb awaiting slaughter, unable to maintain his arrogance.

"Yes," Dongfang Liuli said calmly. "Since I was young, I had a premonition that I would be the sole ruler of eternity, destined to command the mountains and rivers, reclaim the nations, and sweep away the forbidden lands!"

"I will not only rule over all beings in the universe but also master the three thousand great paths! Therefore, I call my unique path the Path of Dominion."

"This Codex of Dominion is the evolution of my path."

This was the first time the Empress had truly shown her anger, and the first time she had used the Codex of Dominion. Before this, everyone knew it was a nuclear bomb, powerful but not to this terrifying extent!Reêad latest novels at novelhall.com

"All laws return to the void, hahaha... What a return to the void!"

"Even without spiritual power and the Black Star Secret Art, I can still fight!"

Zhao Yuhuan tore off his robe, his flesh body glowing with a radiant light. Countless acupoints within his body were filled with a vast ocean of blood and energy.

A sign of sanctification of the flesh body!

"Dual cultivation of body and technique? Just one step away from sanctifying your flesh body. You truly surprise me," Dongfang Liuli nodded, somewhat admiringly.

Even Meng Qingzhou couldn't help but be astonished.

This guy had too many hidden cards! Like a thousand-layered cake, revealing one layer after another.

First, he incited half of Great Jin's officials to rebel, secretly amassed millions of elite soldiers, and deliberately hid in the Forbidden Land of Buried Immortals. Not satisfied with that, he sent his son to the capital to create chaos, ensuring the Empress wouldn't suspect anything.

When his plans were exposed, Zhao Yuhuan suddenly transformed into a peerless great being.

At this point, any normal person would think victory was assured. Empress Qin Liuli, a mere woman in her early twenties, had only reached the peak of the Moon Shine Realm half a month ago. Who would believe she could break through to the Morning Glow Realm?

Zhao Yuhuan anticipated this and unhesitatingly allied with the leaders of seven major forces to besiege her.

Even Meng Qingzhou thought that reaching this point was enough to seize the throne, and Qin Liuli would surely be defeated.

But then, Qian Yuan Sword Saint led a group of half-step Morning Glow Realm elders into a time loop, and Zhao Yuhuan was hit by the All Laws Return to the Void, yet he had another hidden card!

He was a dual cultivator of body and technique, about to sanctify his flesh body!

"A genius!" Meng Qingzhou sighed, feeling a sense of camaraderie and mutual admiration.

In the path of survival, only Zhao Yuhuan could match him.

Unfortunately, someone had preemptively ruined all his plans.

"Die!" Zhao Yuhuan punched through the starry sky, like a meteor crashing into the earth, aiming at Dongfang Liuli.

Dongfang Liuli's eyes were cold as she quietly watched Zhao Yuhuan's rapid approach. She softly spoke a few words:

"Second Decree of Dominion: The Three Thousand Great Paths Serve, Dominion Reigns Supreme."

"The path of the flesh body is also one of the three thousand paths. Kneel before me!"

Zhao Yuhuan, charging with the momentum of a demon god, immediately changed his posture, without any hesitation, and knelt with a thud. Due to his speed, he slid several hundred meters in the air.

Zhao Yuhuan was stunned, looking down at his kneeling posture, questioning his life.

His Dao fruit was being corroded by the black smoke, and his realm was rapidly falling.

In an instant, he was reduced to a mortal, centuries of cultivation turned to ashes, his soul covered in black particles like tiny insects, constantly gnawing at his soul.

Zhao Yuhuan's soul became irregular in shape, pitted and extremely bizarre.

"Give me... a quick death," Zhao Yuhuan wailed, rolling on the ground without any dignity, reaching out to Meng Qingzhou, pleading.

Meng Qingzhou shook his head, "Sorry, I'm just a mortal without any cultivation, I can't kill you."

"Then... Your Majesty, please, kill me!" Zhao Yuhuan screamed.

Dongfang Liuli became even more embarrassed, "I can't spare a hand either, I still need to restrict you. Otherwise, if you regain your strength, this outdated God-Burying Incense would be easily dealt with by a Morning Glow Realm great being."

Hearing this, Zhao Yuhuan even forgot his pain, stopped screaming, and let out a few bitter laughs:

"You two, a pair of hidden talents, how could I fall into your hands! I'm not willing!"

With that, Zhao Yuhuan roared:

"Black Star, explode! I'll take these two with me!"

Only at the brink of death did Zhao Yuhuan realize who the blindfolded youth before him was.

Such an obvious troublemaker attribute, it must be the Emperor of Great Jin!

The man behind the Empress!

Zhao Yuhuan's downfall was all thanks to the Emperor! How could he not hate him!

"Emperor, Empress, come with me!"

Black Star began to swell, then exploded with a thunderous roar!

A deafening explosion shook the nine heavens! The alternate space experienced a massive earthquake, stars fell, and the spatial barriers shattered like paper, disintegrating over millions of miles in an instant.

In just a few seconds.

Dongfang Liuli, without hesitation, chanted aloud, casting her gaze towards Meng Qingzhou, while she herself had no protection, exposed at the center of the Black Star explosion.

"Fourth Decree of Dominion: Where the King's Gaze Falls, All Laws Are Impenetrable."

Meng Qingzhou's expression changed, and he hurriedly summoned Qian Yuan Sword Saint, breaking the time loop.

"Time Domain, protect Her Majesty!"

A tributary of the river of time flowed from the void, enveloping Dongfang Liuli.

He didn't know that in a moment of crisis, the Empress was thinking of protecting him.

The Empress didn't expect that this lazy minister and contract husband would think of protecting her in a moment of danger.

As for Qian Yuan Sword Saint...

Naturally, he was ignored by the Empress, a man who only listened to his master wasn't worth the effort.

"I'm the Empress, not your wife. In such a critical moment, you're thinking of protecting the Empress. Are you planning to betray your wife!?" Dongfang Liuli thought, feeling a bit jealous.

Meng Qingzhou, on the other hand, was thinking:

"The Empress is so powerful, I should make a good impression. Anyway, this damn Black Star explosion can't hurt me. At worst, I'll jump into a segment of the river of time and hide until the explosion is over."

...

...

Boom!!!

The twelve leaders of the forces opened their eyes in confusion, still disoriented from the time loop, only to hear a deafening noise. Turning around, they were engulfed by the Black Star explosion.
