# Chapter 1991: The Mighty Presence of the Emperors
The great emperor's figure from the Ji Clan stood there, streaks of wind sweeping past as several others appeared beside him. They glanced at the corpses on the ground, their eyes showing no significant ripples.
"I truly admire your courage. I didn't expect you to actually dare to kill your way to the Ji Clan," said an emperor, his gaze fixed on Lin Feng with a hint of genuine appreciation. In the past, it took the combined forces of the Four Great Ancient Saint Clans to dare to descend upon War King Academy and apply pressure there. The might of the Four Great Ancient Saint Clans united needed no further elaboration.
But Lin Feng, a mere Mid-rank Emperor, despite his formidable strength and overwhelming battle prowess, dared to kill his way here. The emperor had to admire Lin Feng's audacity.
Lin Feng's expression showed no ripple upon hearing these words. His pitch-black pupils remained calm as he said flatly, "The Four Great Ancient Saint Clans treat me as prey, bullying me for my low cultivation level, and joined forces to pressure War King Academy. Although I, Lin Feng, am only at the Mid-rank Emperor realm, I will not suffer the oppression of the Ancient Saint Clans without any response. I am waiting here."
"Good. When you die, even the Ten Extremities Old Immortal will have nothing to say," the emperor said indifferently. Then they simultaneously stepped back into the Ji Clan.
Lin Feng sat cross-legged right outside the Ji Clan, extremely quiet.
The people of the Ji Clan shot their gazes toward Lin Feng—icy, cold, filled with killing intent—yet he acted as if he hadn't seen them.
Inside a great hall, Ji Dangtian listened to the report from the subordinate below. His eyes flickered for a moment, then he slightly raised his hand and uttered a single word: "Kill!"
Their original goal was the Heavenly Derivation Scripture. However, with the Ten Extremities Old Immortal's words in place, capturing Lin Feng alive to obtain the Heavenly Derivation Scripture was clearly inappropriate. Thus, there was only one option left: kill him.
The silence of the Ji Clan was broken once again. Throughout the vast Ji Clan estate, even Martial Emperor realm experts from various small worlds were being mobilized one after another. The entire Ji Clan was suddenly enveloped by a solemn, murderous atmosphere. Today, Lin Feng must die.
An hour later, on a vast martial stage within the Ji Clan, the crowd surged. Over a hundred Martial Emperor realm experts gathered here, all of them at the High-rank Emperor realm. And this was only a portion. As for the most top-tier High-rank Emperor figures, an Ancient Saint Clan was immensely vast, with countless branches and descendants cultivated over countless years. If they all gathered together, they could be said to be comparable to a nation. It was precisely because of the continuous growth of countless juniors that the Ji Clan never faced a generational gap. Through layer upon layer of selection and elimination, a group of Emperor realm figures would emerge, then Heavenly Emperor realm, and finally the ultimate Saint Emperor realm.
Of course, reaching the highest level of Saint Emperor was already exceedingly rare.
"Do you know what you need to do?" At this moment, Ji Yuan stood in the void, looking at the juniors of the Ji Clan.
"Kill Lin Feng!" A series of cold voices echoed through the air. The terrifying killing intent seemed to converge into a storm, spiraling upward like a tangible force.
"Yes, kill Lin Feng. However, you must remember that this is not a glorious matter but a disgrace. For a dignified Ancient Saint Clan to have someone kill his way to their doorstep, requiring so many people to slay him—if that isn't disgrace, what is?" Ji Yuan's voice was heavy. The crowd remained silent. This was indeed a disgrace. To kill a Mid-rank Emperor, the Ji Clan had to deploy so many Martial Emperor figures.
"Today, our Ji Clan has been humiliated several times. You must engrave this in your hearts. Now, go use Lin Feng's blood to atone for today's disgrace." Ji Yuan's voice rumbled, and the killing intent grew even stronger.
"Kill!"
A unified roar erupted, as if heaven and earth trembled with it. Rumbling sounds spread out as the emperors of the Ji Clan soared into the air, flashing toward the outside of the Ji Clan. The terrifying killing intent shot straight into the clouds, shrouding heaven and earth. An invisible oppressive aura gave the people of the Ji Clan a sense of shared hatred. This disgrace must be remembered. Today, Lin Feng's blood would be used to atone for it.
Outside the Ji Clan, Lin Feng sat cross-legged. But at this moment, a terrifying baleful aura rolled in from afar like surging waves. An invisible, terrifying storm seemed to condense in the heavens and earth. This storm's aura was like an emperor's might, suppressing the entire void until there was no trace of life, utterly dead and silent.
"Thump!" Lin Feng's heart beat slightly. Then he let out a long breath and opened his eyes. His Death Eyes remained calm, just like the reminder from the Ancestor of Slaughter that he couldn't help but worry about. Of course, he also understood how terrifying the foundation of an Ancient Saint Clan was. However, some things still had to be done. Today, he wanted to see—without an emperor, who could kill him? Could these Martial Emperors take his life?
"They're coming!" The hearts of the distant onlookers trembled. They had all come with Lin Feng, ready to witness this battle. Lin Feng had forcefully descended upon the Ji Clan to kill and take lives. Now, the Ji Clan was coming to kill him.
"What terrifying baleful aura. Even an emperor would tremble."
"This is an Ancient Saint Clan. In just a short hour, they mobilized so many High-rank Emperor experts, all with surging auras, rolling killing intent, and extremely powerful blood energy."
"The Ji Clan is truly enraged. They're willing to use this method of group killing just to destroy Lin Feng. This time, they're not after the Heavenly Derivation Scripture; they want Lin Feng's life."
As the emperors gathered, the distant onlookers involuntarily began to retreat. Being too close, even just the baleful aura made them feel ice-cold all over, their hearts pounding. Not to mention the great battle that was about to erupt. This Lin Feng was indeed crazy enough to charge alone into an Ancient Saint Clan. Now that he had angered the Ji Clan, all the emperors descended together, determined to take his life.
When the emperors descended outside the Ji Clan's gate, the entire vast space seemed to be pressed down by mountains, carrying an incredibly heavy weight. Lin Feng felt as if ancient mountains were weighing down on him, but his spine remained as straight as ever. His Death Eyes swept over the crowd one by one.
Several Great Emperor realm experts stepped forward, standing above the emperors. Their gazes fell on Lin Feng as one of them said, "Lin Feng, the Ten Extremities Old Immortal said that Emperor realm experts cannot act against you. Our Ji Clan originally had no way to deal with you. But since you took the initiative to provoke us and kill our Ji Clan disciples, your life is as good as taken today. Let everyone witness this."
"You don't need to worry about the Ten Extremities Old Immortal retaliating. Even if the old immortal senior said it, he will naturally follow through. If I die at the hands of the Ji Clan's emperors, I die without resentment. However, if the emperors cannot kill me, I want to see what face the people of your Ji Clan, an Ancient Saint Clan, still have to walk around in Holy City Central Continent." Lin Feng naturally understood the other party's intentions. They wanted to kill him but were worried about the Ten Extremities Old Immortal's revenge, so they put their words out front.
"You still think you can live?" The Great Emperor sneered. "As for the so-called Emperor realm, our Ji Clan will automatically consider Imperial Weapons as falling within that category. This does not violate the Ten Extremities Old Immortal's words in the slightest. But if you use an Imperial Weapon, then that's a different matter. Today, no one can save you."
As his voice fell, their bodies slowly rose into the air, merely acting as spectators. Today, they would watch how Lin Feng fell. He had brought this upon himself.
"Buzz!" Around Lin Feng's body, a storm of laws suddenly erupted. Various laws intertwined wildly, as if about to evolve into an array. He had never faced so many Martial Emperor realm figures before, but there was no doubt that the destruction such a number of Martial Emperors could create would be terrifyingly immense.
"Kill!" From the void, the Great Emperor's voice descended. In that instant, the aura of slaughter swept through heaven and earth.
"Kill!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" A hundred furious roars, heaven and earth trembling together. That terrifying sonic wave field converged into a supreme killing aura. An incredibly powerful force field appeared in the heavens and earth, slamming violently into Lin Feng's body, forcing him to retreat sharply. He felt a sharp pain in his chest and let out a muffled groan.
"The killing intent doesn't fade; heaven and earth resonate together." The distant onlookers felt the word "kill" rolling endlessly in their eardrums, causing sharp pain in their chests and pale faces, as if they were truly about to be killed.
Then another great roar shattered heaven and earth, piercing through the void. Beams of Azure Dragon Totem light bloomed with dazzling radiance. This was the Ji Clan's inherited martial soul. Most of the juniors of the Ji Clan inherited the bloodline of Emperor realm figures. To ensure excellent bloodlines, many in the Ancient Saint Clan would only spread their branches after reaching the Emperor realm, so that the inherited bloodline power and martial souls would be complete without deviation. Thus, most people in the Ji Clan inherited the Azure Dragon Totem.
Suddenly, a ten-thousand-meter-long Azure Dragon phantom condensed in the heavens and earth, roaring at Lin Feng. Lin Feng's body explosively retreated, but he was still shaken until he coughed up blood. Life essence surged within him, unceasing and unending. His gaze remained as firm and persistent as ever. His retreating footsteps once again stepped forward.
"Courting death!" The Great Emperor in the void sneered. The distant onlookers felt as if their hearts were about to stop beating. This Lin Feng was too crazy. With so many Martial Emperors attacking together, the combined power was terrifyingly immense. If it were them, they would have retreated first and broken them one by one.
At this moment, demonic might surged overwhelmingly from Lin Feng's body. Behind him, it seemed as if an ancient demon phantom had appeared, looking down upon heaven and earth, fearless of anything. No one could make him retreat. He was a Demon Venerable, a Demon King. Even if heaven and earth collapsed, he would still stand eternal. Terrifying demonic qi wrapped around Lin Feng's body. His entire being seemed to turn pitch-black, demonic intent shooting straight into the sky, contending head-on with the other side's terrifying pressure.
The emperors' expressions were cold. Another unified roar shook heaven and earth. Dragon might swept through the void. The phantom dragon appeared again, trembling heaven and earth, piercing through the cosmos.
"Roar!" The demon king behind Lin Feng seemed to raise its head and roar as well. This was momentum, this was spirit. How could a demon weaken its presence?
"Boom!" Waves of terrifying force wreaked havoc on Lin Feng's body, trying to destroy that fearsome demonic intent, causing the demonic qi to churn. His clothes were torn apart. His body seemed to be struck countless times. His footsteps retreated once again. But this time, Lin Feng only retreated ten meters before stopping. A trace of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth. The demonic intent remained unyielding. Lin Feng stepped forward once more, shaking the hearts of the onlookers. A terrifying demonic might force field seemed to appear between heaven and earth, locked in a stalemate with the emperors' force field!
