This was also the reason why the Netherworld Kingdom was able to resist the covetous eyes of many. If one wanted to deal with the Netherworld Kingdom while their combat power was declining, they would have to pay a huge price.
In addition, the Netherworld Kingdom was much stronger than the average Emperor Emperor's inheritance. Unless one was like Ye Xiwen and mobilized all the realms to attack the Netherworld Kingdom, the chances of success were too low.
Ordinary people could not stand the extreme laws of the Netherworld Kingdom. It was precisely because of these laws that the Netherworld Kingdom was able to nurture so many powerhouses. They could not be resurrected just by burying them.
"Ye Xiwen, you have guts. Since ancient times, there have not been many who have such guts. However, they will all have to pay the price!" Ming Di looked at Ye Xiwen coldly. His eyes were red like two scarlet gems.
"Hmph, you are just a smelly rat hiding in the dark. How dare you act so arrogantly in front of me!"
Ye Xiwen's words almost made Ming Di jump in anger. Ye Xiwen's words never left the topic of his sneak attack on the Lord of Underworld. For an Emperor Emperor level expert like him, this was a humiliation.
After all, he was an expert of that level and yet he still dared to do such a thing. It would be understandable if he was an enemy, but the Lord of Underworld and Ming Di had always been working together against the enemy. In the end, he stabbed his ally in the back. Such a person was not worthy of respect, even if he was an Emperor.
Ye Xiwen just stood there and looked at Ming Di. He had such confidence. It had been more than 10,000 years and many things had changed. He was no longer the same as when he had just become an Emperor and needed to take care of everything.
"Back then, you were lucky enough to become an Emperor. Instead of being a peaceful Emperor, you actually dared to come and attack the Netherworld Kingdom. Today, you will pay the price!" Ming Di's hair danced in the wind as he said this. His aura was ice cold and he was insufferably arrogant.
His eyes were so cold that it seemed as if they could freeze the entire universe.
A huge halberd appeared in Ming Di's hand. He brandished it, and the faint roar of a dead beast could be heard. It didn't sound like the roar of a living creature, but rather the roar of a dead creature. The first time Ye Xiwen heard such a roar was on the Demon Island, and it made his hair stand on end.
Of course, he didn't need to do that with his current cultivation.
Ye Xiwen just stood with his hands clasped behind his back. He took a step forward and stepped on a golden rainbow bridge that was millions of miles long. It went straight into the endless sky. The battle between the two could easily affect the troops of both sides below.
At this point, there was no need for that.
Ming Di was clearly of the same mind as Ye Xiwen.
He held the halberd in his hand, and followed Ye Xiwen directly into the endless sky. This was the extreme edge of the entire world. It was very far from the ground. Moreover, there was the barrier of the Underworld. It was enough for the two of them to fight to their hearts' content.
A battle between Empyreans!
Everyone was trembling when they saw this scene. They couldn't help but feel cold all over. Even though they had experienced this more than once, they were still worried and afraid. On the contrary, it was precisely because they had experienced it more than once that they knew how terrifying an expert of this level could be. He was simply not on the same level as their professors.
"Buzz!"
In an instant, Ming Di made the first move. He rushed forward and attacked Ye Xiwen with his halberd. There was a black dragon pattern engraved on the halberd, and it seemed to come alive at this moment as it pounced towards Ye Xiwen.
This was a Dragon of Death. No one knew which Golden Dragon had been killed and refined into this halberd. Its power was simply unimaginable.
"Clang!"
The Time Robe appeared on Ye Xiwen's body and instantly enveloped him. Layers of five-colored divine radiance burst forth to resist the attack of the halberd. The dragon bared its fangs and brandished its claws, but it was as if it had encountered a porcupine. It had nowhere to bite and had no way to break through Ye Xiwen's defenses.
This was an attack that could annihilate a group of Quasi-Emperors. Ming Di attacked with all his might because he knew what kind of existence this person before him was. He couldn't underestimate him.
This was the second time that Ye Xiwen had fought against Ming Di. However, he had only used a wisp of his primordial spirit previously. It was a completely different concept compared to Ming Di himself.
Ye Xiwen let out a long howl and punched forward.
"Six Paths of Reincarnation!"
Ye Xiwen's punch suppressed the heavens and earth, forming an incomparably huge Six Paths of Reincarnation that pressed down in all directions.
Ye Xiwen's attack was unleashed with the Dark Bodhi Divine Hand, and its power was multiplied by several times. It was terrifyingly powerful.
At this stage, both of them had already raised their battle prowess to the extreme. There was nothing to hold back, or rather, they didn't dare to hold back.
Both of them had their own weaknesses and strengths, and they were well aware of that.
To Ye Xiwen, his strength was naturally his undamaged Great Dao. It was far beyond the imagination of ordinary people and was at its peak. Coupled with his many dao treasures, his strength could be multiplied by several times.
However, his greatest weakness was his cultivation. He was only at the second stage of the Ninth Stage Emperor Monarch Realm. As for Ming Di, he realized that Ming Di was at least a fourth stage Emperor Monarch.
In a normal fight, even with Ye Xiwen's various enhancements, he probably wouldn't be able to defeat Ming Di. Fortunately, Ming Di was severely injured, so he still had a chance.
Ye Xiwen's punch was enough to subdue the heavens and earth, as well as all the nomological laws. However, Ming Di's reaction was even faster, and he immediately turned around and countered.
"Dang!"
After an intense collision, the void began to collapse and tremble. Ming Di's Netherworld Kingdom seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
More blood flowed out of Ming Di's body. This attack was also a form of injury to him. Even if they were evenly matched, his injuries were his greatest weakness.
However, he had never admitted defeat in his life. It was unknown how many Sovereign Emperors he had seen at the same time. At that time, he had no scruples and dared to go against those Sovereign Emperors. Now, he was even more unbridled.
In an instant, he attacked again. Although his vitality was somewhat lacking compared to Ye Xiwen's, his skills were more profound, and his understanding of the Great Dao was even more astonishing. It was precisely because his vitality was inferior that he needed to focus his energy and resolve the problem as soon as possible.
Ye Xiwen retreated a few steps. He felt the blood in his chest churning. This was the first time he had been shaken in a fight with an Emperor Realm expert. One must know that even when he had killed Ni Di, Ni Di hadn't been able to pose a real threat to him.
Ming Di lived up to his reputation as the ruler of the Netherworld Kingdom to be able to do this.
However, Ye Xiwen quickly recovered his cultivation. After undergoing Nirvana, the Phoenix Regeneration technique became even more miraculous. This small injury was almost completely healed in a matter of minutes.
Seeing that Ming Di was charging towards him again, Ye Xiwen rushed forward and roared, "Ming Di, it's time for you to die. Since you're already injured, why don't you die?!"
"Hmph!" Ming Di didn't reply. He simply swung the halberd in his hand towards Ye Xiwen. He knew that Ye Xiwen was trying to shake his Dao heart. However, his Dao heart was already as hard as steel, and wouldn't be shaken by such words.
"Sovereign Slash!" Ming Di roared, and the halberd in his hand suddenly emitted an unimaginably intense light. The halberd light swept across the sky, piercing through the protection of Ye Xiwen's Chrono Robe.
"The Chrono Robe is indeed powerful, but you can't unleash the full power of the Chrono Robe because you aren't the Lord of Time!"
Ming Di's attack continued to penetrate deeper, almost piercing through Ye Xiwen's entire body.
This was a terrifying and majestic power. Even an Emperor Monarch was no exception.
The halberd pierced into Ye Xiwen's body inch by inch. Just as it was about to pierce through Ye Xiwen …
Suddenly, a long sword appeared in Ye Xiwen's hand. A sword aura that was millions of miles long formed out of thin air, and the sword slashed towards Ming Di.
"Bang!"
Ye Xiwen's attack directly struck Ming Di. Ming Di didn't have a peerless battle robe like the Chrono Robe. The armor on his body was instantly smashed into pieces. The full power of the Avici Sword was still very shocking. It had reached an unimaginable level.
"Again!"
Ye Xiwen raised his sword high again, and then suddenly slashed down like lightning. The speed was also extremely fast, and a shocking sword aura pierced through the sky.
This sword forced Ming Di to defend himself with his halberd. He wasn't like Ye Xiwen, who had the protection of the Chrono Robe. Although he couldn't unleash 100% of its power, just a portion of it was enough. It was unimaginably tyrannical and powerful.
He had to defend himself. This was also his greatest weakness.
"Bang!"
The halberd and the sword aura collided fiercely, and the heavens and earth split apart.
"Ye Xiwen, don't think that you're the only one with a dao treasure!" Ming Di said coldly. He flipped his palms and waved towards the void. A grey stream of light pierced through the sky, instantly transforming into a battle robe that flew over his body.
"Underworld Sacred Robe!"
Ye Qianqian, who was standing at the front of the army, suddenly exclaimed. She immediately recognized the origin of this Underworld Sacred Robe. This was the life dao treasure of the Lord of Underworld.
It was just that after the Lord of Underworld fell, the Underworld Sacred Robe had disappeared and never appeared again. Hence, it had never been passed down to her. Who would have thought that it would end up in the hands of Ming Di now? No wonder she couldn't find the whereabouts of this Underworld Sacred Robe no matter how hard she searched.
With the enhancement of the Underworld Sacred Robe, Ming Di's battle prowess had increased by a huge margin. Compared to before, it had undergone an earth-shattering change.
