Chapter 63: What of the Robbery of Light?

The Evil God merely cast a disdainful glance, his tone icy.
"You insignificant ants, how dare you look upon me directly?"
Yin Shihang had no interest in communicating with them at all.
"Isn't it your desire today to ascend the Immortal Platform? I am in an exceptionally generous mood and will lend you a hand."
"However, if I help you, you must pay the price. Now, bask in the immortal radiance as much as you like! Hahaha!"
He laughed coldly, the human shell he wore beginning to crack, his skin splitting open as six arms suddenly emerged from his back.
Two heads. Eight arms.
This was the Evil God in his true form.
"Come!"
The Evil God again called out, shouting towards the heavens.
Immediately, dense clouds gathered above the heads of Supreme Ling Ji and the others.
Dark clouds loomed overhead.
They churned mid-air, colliding excitedly as if in agitation.
"What do you intend to do?"
"I tell you, you will gain nothing here."
"This is the Supreme Cemetery, not a place for an Evil God to run rampant!"
Supreme Ziyang and Supreme Ling Ji, masters of two great sacred grounds, spoke up one after another.
As long as they were present, this Evil God could not act at will!
"The Ultimate Sacred Artifact!" Supreme Ling Ji cried out, and instantly a flat stone appeared before their eyes.
The stone artifact radiated dazzling light, illuminating a portion of the sky.
Supreme Ziyang, too, summoned a long spear with a wave of his hand—a quasi-immortal artifact from the Ziyan Sacred Ground.
A surge of oppressive force rose around them, forming a stark contrast to the swirling storm clouds above.
"Let's strike together! Capture the Evil God!"
Xieming’s voice, laden with fury, pierced the entire sky.
Those present realized the gravity of the situation and acted at once.
Nearly all the Supremes from the surrounding realms had arrived, and now, with so many joining forces, their power was truly awe-inspiring!
Even though the Evil God's might and the Cemetery’s intimidation shook the mortal world, even though his strength nearly reached immortal heights,
there were dozens of Supremes present, not to mention two quasi-immortal artifacts!
Yin Shihang showed utter disdain for their combined force, a cold smile on his face; to him, they were nothing.
With a mere flick of his finger, the clouds above the Supremes’ heads dispersed,
revealing the radiant colors hidden behind the darkness.

"Not good!" Supreme Ling Ji cried out loudly.
But it was already too late!
A thunderous roar crashed down.
What lay hidden behind the clouds was not mere light, but tribulation radiance!
Alongside the spheres of tribulation light, colorful immortal radiance descended as well.
The immortal radiance locked straight onto the two quasi-immortal artifacts!
"We’ve fallen into his trap! The Evil God intends to use us to draw out the tribulation light!"
"Only if we help him withstand all the tribulation light can he ascend the Immortal Platform unscathed!"
"We cannot let him succeed!"
The Supremes realized the truth, but it was already too late.
They had been hesitant from the start, and now they faced the tribulation light head-on.
The Evil God let out a derisive laugh, as if mocking their ignorance.
Turning his back, he rushed straight for the Immortal Platform, utterly unconcerned with the carnage that would unfold behind him—he cared not at all for the fate of the Supremes!
Just as despair overwhelmed everyone and they braced for death,
a crisp voice sounded from behind them!
"Supremes! Please hurry into the palace!" The speaker was An Yue’er.
They found themselves stepping directly into the Supreme Cemetery.
Not only An Yue’er, but Leng Qianxue, Yu Qiushui, and Huang Xiantang were there as well!
They possessed no Supreme cultivation, yet they could enter the Cemetery? What was happening?
An Yue’er looked up at the swirling immortal and colored radiance above, about to crash down upon all present.
With a wave of her hand, a divine palace suddenly appeared before them.
The palace occupied a vast portion of the Cemetery, its majestic aura erupting forth.
Everyone felt a profound ancient energy enveloping the palace.
It seemed as though the palace had lain dormant in the river of history, waiting countless years for this moment to meet the masses…
"This…"
"Do not hesitate, everyone! Make haste and enter!"
"Life is precious! Quickly!"
Seeing the silence, Supreme Ling Ji and Supreme Ziyang were first to react, urging everyone.
Admiration could wait until their lives were safe.
Thus, in a rush, the crowd poured into the Fire Moon Palace.
Upon entering, all felt themselves incredibly insignificant.
"What is this place? I feel like an ant, utterly insignificant here!"

"There are rules of the Great Dao in this palace! And the fire element is flourishing!"
"Could this be stronger than a quasi-immortal artifact? Is this…an immortal artifact?"
For a moment, the people present were at a loss for words.
A tremendous boom echoed overhead!
Even inside the Immortal Palace, many Supremes shut their eyes, unable to bear the sight of what was about to happen.
But after a long pause, they nervously opened their eyes.
The anticipated pain did not arrive.
No impact struck them.
Instead, the scene before their eyes stunned them!
The tribulation radiance—both spheres and colored beams—vanished at the very instant they were about to strike the palace, as if…as if they had never existed.
Not even a spark was left behind.
What was happening?
Even those with Supreme cultivation had never witnessed such a spectacle!
What treasure was this palace?
An immortal artifact could do no more!
To easily resist tribulation radiance—this was terrifying!
Everyone present was deeply shocked.
Upon entering, they had sensed the palace was extraordinary, but now they had experienced it firsthand.
Before the palace, the tribulation radiance was utterly powerless.
No threat at all.
"What kind of treasure is this?"
"Princess’s treasure is truly astonishing!"
Many believed it to be an immortal artifact, yet none had ever seen one in the entire Heavenly Martial Realm, so they could not be certain.
After all, any quasi-immortal artifact that could ascend would leave the Heavenly Martial Realm.
Who would linger in this impoverished world when the Immortal Realm awaited?
Why not enjoy a better life?
Even so, everyone was convinced this palace was at least an immortal artifact, if not greater!
Without such a grade, it could never withstand the descent of tribulation radiance.
