Chapter 1376 (Raw 1367): Nine-Colored Emperor's Road
The Deity Dao Union's group soared into the air. However, before it could get far, the Emperor's Door landed firmly, stopping in midair.
"Buzz!" The ground of the entire Meteor Trail City gave off a loud noise and sank. It cracked apart in many places, and lava from the depths even spewed out.
With such a heavy strike, all the people in the air looked like they were hammered down.
They vomited mouthfuls of blood and landed heavily. After they regained their feet, they continued fleeing into the distance without looking back.
The four Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors fighting with Xiao Chen were also ruthlessly hammered down by this Emperor's Door that suddenly appeared.
Blood spurted from Xiao Chen's lips. Just as he was about to hit the ground, he struck it with the tip of his saber before performing a somersault and standing stably.
Xiao Chen looked at Di Wuque, whose long hair and clothes fluttered in the wind while he gathered all the energy in the surrounding space. Xiao Chen showed a rare look of shock in his eyes. This was simply too surprising. Di Wuque actually wanted to forcefully take the Great Tribulation of wind and fire.
The risk of forcefully taking the Great Tribulation of wind and fire could not be underestimated. This was something that Xiao Chen had been avoiding.
The Great Tribulation was already hard to survive in the first place. Forcefully taking the tribulation was akin to suicide.
Di Wuque definitely understood this simple principle. Furthermore, his accumulations were still far from sufficient. He would need at least one more year before they would barely be sufficient to undergo the Great Tribulation of wind and fire.
While Xiao Chen was surprised, the four Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors were even more surprised.
"What's going on with the Divine Son?"
The Deity Race Greater Heavenly Martial Emperor Leng Zhengyang appeared somewhat dazed as he looked at Di Wuque. Was it because the blow of the Divine Daughter's death was too great, turning him suicidal?
"Brother Leng, what should we do?" Su Qianxing asked.
The two old men from the Ghost Race and the Corpse Race also looked at Leng Zhengyang. The sudden situation threw them into confusion.
Leng Zhengyang thought for a while, and then a murderous intent flashed in his eyes. "The plan remains unchanged. Continue to attack Xiao Chen. This brat ruined the Divine Son; we absolutely cannot let him live."
Clearly, Leng Zhengyang thought that Di Wuque had nearly no chance of succeeding the tribulation. He already gave up on the Divine Son and blamed everything on Xiao Chen.
"That is fine by me. Clearly, this brat did not conserve enough energy. Before advancing to Martial Emperor, he will not be able to bring out much of a Divine Weapon's might."
The four Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors quickly finished their discussion and charged towards Xiao Chen once more.
With Fang Baiyu and his group having already successfully entered the sixth layer of formations, Xiao Chen now intended to make his retreat.
However, these four Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors steeled themselves not to let Xiao Chen go.
Xiao Chen was in no rush. This unexpected surprise was beneficial to him. The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign would definitely not give up on Di Wuque. Soon, that Prime would get everyone to retreat to serve as protectors for Di Wuque.

In the direction where Supreme Sky City was, Ying Zongtian and the three Holy Masters fought in the sky. All of them immediately felt the descent of the Emperor's Door.
At first, Ying Zongtian thought that it was Xiao Chen undergoing his tribulation, and showed an extremely grave expression. When he saw that it was Di Wuque undergoing the tribulation, his expression relaxed slightly. At the same time, he had some doubts.
What blow had Di Wuque suffered? Everything was going fine, so why did he forcefully call down his tribulation?
"This is bad. That Di Wuque brat went crazy!" The White Tiger Holy Master could not help scolding in anger.
The Vermilion Bird Holy Master took a look and saw that the Worldly Mountain River Great Sun Formation was about to be reactivated. With Di Wuque also going crazy, he decisively ordered, "Retreat!"
The Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors of the Deity Dao Union immediately freed themselves from the fight and retreated, no one remaining behind.
The Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors on the Supreme Sky Sect's side released their bated breath. After the three Holy Masters took out the Holy Beast Totems, the pressure on them had gotten too great.
The Peacock King and the others quickly gathered at Ying Zongtian's side. They looked into the distance at that Emperor's Door with shock on their faces.
"Brother Supreme Sky, do you think that this Di Wuque really went mad?" the Peacock King asked Ying Zongtian.
Forcefully taking a tribulation was something that this group of older-generation Martial Emperors would not dare imagine.
Ying Zongtian peered through the boundless distance and sized up Di Wuque. He looked at Di Wuque's eyes and said, "Di Wuque is also an excellent, powerful genius. His move might appear very risky and hard to survive, but in the one-millionth percent chance that he manages to do it, the situation will be bad."
"Brother Supreme Sky means that Di Wuque is trying to advance to Martial Emperor before Xiao Chen does, fighting desperately when confronting mortal danger, making one last gamble?"
Ying Zongtian nodded and said, "However, his chances are slim."
"No matter how slim the chances are, there is still a chance. We should completely eliminate this chance."
All the people here were powerhouses of their areas. They did not hesitate to decide to kill. Several of them expressed similar thoughts.
If Di Wuque really succeeded in his tribulation, it would be very possible for him to change fate and become the one favored by Luck. The Deity Dao Union would receive the protection of the Heavenly Dao. To the Supreme Sky Sect, that would be a disastrous blow.
A light flickered in Ying Zongtian's eyes. He thought even deeper and considered things even further. Then, he shook his head and said, "There's no need. Since he wants to gamble on it, I'll give him this chance. Come, let's go over and watch."

At the rear of the Deity Dao Union, the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign and the Heaven Punishing Corpse God were stunned when they saw the scene on the water screen.
Clouds churned and winds blew in the water screen. An Emperor's Door stood upright, emanating a supreme might, looking mysterious and filled with allure.
The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign was stunned for only a moment. Then, he quickly stood up with a 'whoosh.'
The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign's normally calm heart showed some fluctuations. He frowned heavily, his expression turning grave. After a long time, he sighed softly, "Wuque, why do this? After the Supreme Sky Sect's destruction, your path will be smooth."
"Qitian, what are your plans now?" the Heaven Punishing Corpse God asked as he looked at the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign. This surprise exceeded both their expectations.
A grave look flashed in the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign's eyes. He said, "Focus fully on protecting Di Wuque while he undergoes his tribulation. Do not let anyone interrupt him."
The Heaven Punishing Corpse God's lips curled up. "Is there a need? No one in history has ever survived forcefully taking the tribulation. Since the Desolate Ancient Era to this era, there is no exception. All of them died. Even if they managed to survive, they would be half-dead, their future completely wasted, crippled for life."
The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign raged when he heard this. "Xing Tian, don't agitate me!"
"He is speaking the truth."
Just at this moment, another voice appeared. It was the East Mountain Ghost Monarch, who had left to block the Spirit Fox King. Due to Di Wuque's matter, he had rushed back.
The East Mountain Ghost Monarch continued, "Qitian, the Emperor's Door already descended. Soon, the Emperor's Road will descend. This is something that you can no longer change. You should also understand that the Divine Daughter will be a Heart Tribulation for him. The path he walks is one of certain death."
The Heaven Punishing Corpse God thought for a while before adding, "There is no need to go to such great pains for the sake of a discarded pawn. I think we can just dissolve the Deity Dao Union now."
There was no other way. The Heaven Punishing Corpse God's words were also out of helplessness. Since ancient times, no one had ever succeeded in forcefully undergoing the Great Tribulation of wind and fire. Furthermore, Di Wuque was currently deranged.
Just at this moment, the scene in the water screen changed again. The Emperor's Door and the clouds around gave off bright lights—scarlet, orange, yellow, green, azure, blue, purple…a total of nine colors before stopping.
"Whoosh!"
Steps flowing with nine colors descended from under the Emperor's Door, spreading all the way down. The number of steps reached nine thousand, shining with dreamy light, like a path to immortality.
The East Mountain Ghost Monarch and the Heaven Punishing Corpse God both showed stunned expressions in disbelief over what they just saw.
Nine-colored Emperor's Road. This was of an even higher grade than the golden Emperor's Road. This was a mysterious phenomenon that appeared only when the supreme beings of the peak era of the Martial Dao underwent their tribulations.
"Hahaha! It's the nine-colored Emperor's Road. Nine is the limit of numbers, nine is supreme, nine is sovereign. This is the true sovereign's Emperor's Road!"
The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign reared his head back and laughed loudly. Di Wuque gambled with his life, forcefully taking his tribulation. However, he gained a sovereign's Emperor's Road for himself.
