cover bore four ancient characters: "Secret Art of Refining Corpse."Ye Bufan took the book in his hand and flipped through it with interest, then disdainfully threw it back beside Shangguan Hongbing."...Ye Bufan and Situ Dianmo joined forces, the two actually suppressed Shenhuang to death, completely gaining the upper hand.

But the situation is vastly different now. The Blood Clan was already suppressed by the Divine Court, and now their strength is even weaker.

Ten cardinals in red robes, ten holy knights, these combined forces would be able to crush the remaining princes of the blood clan.

Even though their bodies were strong, under the suppression of attributes, Assange and his companions were routed, each one covered in wounds.

As for those little vampires below, they were even worse off, completely powerless against the suppression of numerous clergymen.

Seeing this, Ye Bufan frowned slightly. Although he disliked these guys from the underworld, he couldn't let them perish. If they were to disappear, it would disrupt the balance of the West and bring unnecessary trouble to China.

Even now, if he were to go back in time, it wouldn't be very helpful. The most urgent task is to quickly defeat the God Emperor. As long as Adams retreats, the situation below will naturally ease.

Thinking about this, he sent a signal and the two immediately increased their attack frequency.

Si Tu Dian Mo attacked fiercely at the front, drawing most of Shen Huang's attention. Ye Bufan suddenly took out the Heavenly Thunder Orb, unleashing several massive bolts of lightning that struck Adam's back with a thunderous boom.

Caught off guard, Adams hastily swung out a holy shield, blocking the bolt of lightning that came crashing down.

And seizing this opportunity, Ye Bufan instantly arrived behind him, his Dragon's Tooth Slash landing on his back.

With a dull thud, Longya struck, but Adam's back flared with holy light, stopping the blade in its tracks.

At the same time, the powerful force of the backlash sent him flying backward dozens of meters. Dragonfang almost slipped from his grasp.

Ye Bufan couldn't help but gasp in shock. A powerhouse at the Imperial Realm was indeed formidable. Just their protective defense wasn't something he could easily break through.

"A Chinese person, wanting to harm me you are not enough."

Having been suppressed for so long, Adam's heart was filled with fury. With a roar, the holy light within him burst forth, finally coalescing into a suit of armor that enveloped his entire body.

The denizens of the Divine Court were stunned below. The Emperor had never used the Holy Light Armor in all these years, which showed just how great the pressure he was under.

At the same time, their eyes filled with shock and awe as they looked at Ye Bufan. He hadn't even reached the Emperor Realm yet, but he was able to injure a God Emperor. Perhaps only this one person in the world could do it.

Yet Ye Bufan couldn't care less, his figure flashed and launched another attack.

Adamas' defense was multiplied as he channeled the holy light into armor, turning the tide of battle after his previous disadvantage.

But Situ Dianmo was powerful, and Ye Bufan was completely immune to holy power. He had no good way to deal with him, so he could only parry every move. For a time, the two sides were evenly matched and entered a stalemate.

Seeing that every attack was in vain, Ye Bufan felt a burning rage in his heart. If this continued, the Blood Clan would surely be finished.

Once those holy knights and red cardinals are free, then life will be difficult for both myself and Master Situ.

Thinking about this, he no longer hid it and directly used his last trump card—the Soul-Severing Blade.

With a deafening boom, Situ Dianmo and the God Emperor clashed in a fierce exchange. Both parties fought with equal strength, resulting in a stalemate.

Seizing the opportunity, Ye Bufan unleashed dozens of thunderbolts first. Then, his Dragon's Tooth transformed into a streak of light and stabbed towards Adamas' back.

This wasn't the first time this had happened. Knowing that his opponent couldn't break through his holy light armor, Adams didn't take it too seriously. He simply used his holy shield to block the lightning above his head.

Just then, a sudden sharp pain shot through his mind, followed by a state of mental paralysis.

Now, Ye Bufan's spiritual power has reached the level of a Grand Perfection expert in the Refining Void Realm. In this state, his Soul-Severing Blade is something he simply cannot withstand.

All of the divine temple's spells are powered by spiritual energy. Once this support is lost, the holy light armor on his body instantly disappears.

Although the time was short, for Ye Bufan it had been enough. The Dragon's Fang in his hand met no resistance, piercing Adamas' right chest like a knife through tofu.

Instantly, blood splattered. The tip of Longya's blade pierced through the other side of his chest.

Suddenly, the scene fell silent. Nobody expected that the invincible God Emperor of the Western World would not only be defeated but also severely injured.

After a brief silence, the people of the Divine Court immediately panicked.

"My Emperor!"

With a gasp, Helena, Cassiaris, Guardiola and others quickly rose into the air and came to Adam's side.

Ye Bufan didn't continue his attack, withdrawing the dragon fang and retreating to the side with Situ Dianmo.

In fact, he had already shown mercy. If it weren't for Helena's sake, the blade would have pierced his heart instead of just his right chest.

"Father, are you alright"

In her panic, Helena had no time to hide her identity. She cried out in alarm.

"I'm fine, get out of my way!"

Adam's voice was filled with anger.

The mighty God Emperor, the ruler of the Western world, was actually injured by a junior. This left his dignity and face completely ruined.

All were afraid of his majesty and retreated in fear.

Adam covered his pierced chest with one hand, looking at Ye Bufan coldly.

"Boy, you truly surprise me. To actually wound me... but do you think that's enough to defeat the divine emperor You are far from capable of such a feat."

As he finished speaking, he extended his hand and a hat woven from thorns appeared in his palm.

Ye Bufan's expression changed suddenly. Although he didn't know what it was, his divine sense could feel the immense pressure emanating from it. This was clearly a treasure of a very high rank.

Adams said with a smug grin, "You think I suddenly came to wipe out the blood clan for no reason Because today's Divine Court is not what it used to be. I found back the missing Thorns Crown."

"What Is this the Crown of Thorns"

Upon hearing his words, both the members of the Divine Court and the Blood Clan looked shocked.

The Thorns Crown is a legendary artifact of the highest order from the divine court. It disappeared a thousand years ago, but today it has suddenly appeared in the hands of the Divine Emperor.

"The Thorns Crown! Oh, glorious! The God Emperor has retrieved the most precious treasure of our Celestial Court..."

The crowd in the divine court was abuzz with excitement, practically vibrating with energy.

...while, in contrast, the eyes of those fallen blood kin were filled with despair.

The current Divine Court is already beyond their capabilities to withstand, and if they also possessed the holy artifact Thorns Crown, what path would be left for their vampire race in the future

Among the crowd present, only Situ Dianmo and Ye Bufan looked bewildered. They didn't understand the Western world's civilization and clearly had no idea what this thing was.

Adam beamed, raising the thorny crown in his hand and placing it upon his head. In an instant, the crown erupted with blinding holy light.

Then the spikes above pierced his scalp, and holy power surged in madly. In the blink of an eye, his body was filled with potent holy energy.

Meanwhile, the wound he had just been inflicted with by the dragon's fang began to heal at a visible rate, almost completely mending in the blink of an eye.orld, strength is revered above all else. Right now, he was filled with awe and respect, not a hint of disdain in his heart.Seeing this, everyone around was completely dumbfounded. No one could figure...
