Report

No one expected that a figure would truly appear. It was completely silent, already standing in front of the soul river!

He was surrounded by the fog. With his hands behind his back, he stared at the deepest part of the Vile Earth — the source of the strangeness.

Everyone was shaken, great waves surging in their hearts, all of them petrified on the spot!

The summoning was successful. A supreme expert had returned?!

This … was hard to believe. They were just giving it a try, yet in the end, a powerful creature really did descend here?

Even after a while, the people present were still in a daze, not daring to believe it.

The Soul River was quiet, not a single sound could be heard!

Even the deepest part of the Ultimate Wretched Earth was deathly silent. Even that supreme being had lost his voice.

A figure traversed the world, looking disdainfully at the everlasting clear sky.

The world was silent, not a single sound could be heard.

For a long time, no one came back to their senses.

The zombie's entire body was trembling, and he almost rushed over, but he resisted and restrained his impulsive emotions.

The bald man wanted to scream out. Even though his clothes were tattered, body covered in great dao injuries, right now, he was excited and moved to an indescribable degree, even trembling.

Li Xu stared at the back of that figure, unable to remain calm.

The Martial Emperor's oily green eyes had long since become fixated!

The owner of the Black Blood Research Institute was dumbfounded. He stood rooted to the ground, unable to move. What had he seen today? The living supreme legend had returned!

Soul River Extreme Land was filled with countless strange creatures. Right now, they were all trembling with fear, feeling great fear. They sensed that something big was going to happen!

That was because not long ago, they had all seen the dog emperor and the old man's skin praying, calling someone back. And now... they had succeeded!

Without a doubt, in their knowledge, this was definitely an extremely powerful being!

In the innermost depths of the Soul River Terminus, that place was cold and quiet. That terrifying eye hadn't disappeared, still floating in the dark cosmos.

It was extremely large, could be said to be boundlessly vast, many times larger than a planet.

A trickle of blood dripped down from the eyeball. In the darkness, it looked very sad and terrifying.

It was no longer overbearing, observing, examining, staring at the hazy figure in the distance, its mind heavy, exceptionally serious.

For a moment, he was speechless.

Not long ago, he didn't place all living beings in the world in his eyes. He was cold and emotionless, and he viewed his enemies as ants.

So what if someone reached the Soul River? He didn't care.

But now it was different!

No matter how confident he was, it all depended on who was coming!

He could no longer remain indifferent, unable to remain calm. At this moment, the scenes of the great worlds dying, the starry rivers extinguishing, and the heavens falling appeared in the depths of his eyes.

He was ready for battle, transferring his body's unmatched power!

It was as if they were facing a great enemy, as if they had fallen into an abyss. The unmatched creatures of Soul River Extremity were unexpectedly serious, not daring to relax in the slightest as they confronted that figure.

But no matter what, it was impossible for him to retreat.

Who was he to be revered as supreme? How could he avoid the battle just because a figure had arrived!?

At this level, they still had the necessary cautiousness, but they definitely wouldn't be cowardly. They wouldn't admit that they were inferior to others. This was the innate temperament of supreme experts.

For a moment, the atmosphere at the Soul River was terrifying.

No one made a sound. No one broke the silence.

An austere aura pervaded the air, and all living things withered.

No one spoke. It was terrifying, oppressive, and oppressive to the extreme. It was practically suffocating!

Everyone stared at the blurry figure in the fog.

Who was he? Chu Feng!

He had really arrived here passively. Earlier, the Great Dao patterns interweaved beneath his feet, and he couldn't help but take a step forward. In the end, he suddenly arrived here.

Beside the Dog Emperor, someone finally couldn't hold it in and shouted.

"I … Damn, the Celestial Thearch is here!"

I'm going too! Chu Feng wanted to run. What did you say? I don't understand, don't harm me!

Who is the Celestial Thearch? Do you want me to fight the unmatched?! I'm just … passing by.

Why are you all looking at me? I don't know you! Chu Feng's face was about to turn green. He felt that there were unruly people who wanted to harm him.

However, he couldn't change his expression. He restrained himself with great willpower, making himself as unmoving as a mountain and as steady as a boulder.

Finally, it was quiet. The person who had impulsively spoken shut his mouth. The atmosphere was tense, and no one was willing to break this special silence.

Now, a group of people was looking at Chu Feng.

What are you all looking at? I'm lost! He really wanted to say that.

Have you never seen someone who walked the wrong way before? Why are you all staring at me!

He was furious, feeling like he was going to die here.

However, he couldn't open his mouth to explain, and he had to remain silent.

He had already sensed the situation here. The group of people behind him didn't have any killing intent, and it could even be said that their eyes were burning as they stared at him.

Among them were familiar faces like the black dog and the human skin of the First Mountain. They had great backgrounds.

As for the area ahead, it was even more terrifying. A boundless eye seemed to squeeze the entire dark universe, and it was incomparably cold.

Chu Feng's arrival made the unmatched creature in the depths of the Soul River extremely fearful. Until now, it hadn't spoken. The two camps could be said to be extremely tense.

The arrival of one person had completely changed the situation.

However, Chu Feng didn't have this kind of awareness.

He looked at that eye and felt like he was being targeted. Who are you glaring at? That's enough, staring at me endlessly. Your eyes deserve to bleed!

After standing here for a moment, he naturally understood the situation of the two camps. They were in a standoff, and he also understood the dangerous situation he was in.

If things went wrong, he would have to fight the unmatched creature, a great battle of life and death!

However, did he have the capital to deal with the unmatched creature?

If he really did make a move and was stuck to his body by the large hand of a creature of that level, not even flesh would be left. He would most likely have nothing left.

When he thought of this, Chu Feng calmed himself down.

He made up his mind not to speak. Silence was golden.

This was because once he conversed with the unmatched creature, the more he said, the more mistakes he would make. It was enough as long as he maintained the demeanor of an expert!

Moreover, he believed that his "character" was higher, so he definitely couldn't speak before the unmatched creature in the depths of the Soul River. Didn't all experts speak last?

When he thought of this, the great fog around Chu Feng became even thicker. His body was as still as a prehistoric divine mountain, unmoving.

He kept looking at the bleeding eye in the Soul River's Ultimate Land. He really wanted to say, 'You're already bleeding and crying, why are you still pretending to be a big shot? If you have something to say, hurry up and say it!'

The silence was broken. The Dog Emperor was incomparably excited and happy. It really couldn't hold it in any longer. It let out a loud bark and looked down on the overlord of the Soul River.

It felt that the summoning was successful. At this juncture, the dog life should be enjoyed to the fullest. After enduring for so many years, how could it not let out a breath of resentment?

The decayed corpse, bald man, and the others were also full of fighting spirit. No matter what, their morale was high.

Chu Feng cried. 'Can you guys let me be a bit less worried?'

From the looks of it, they were forcing him to fight with the unmatched creature. He really wanted to shout, 'This is too f * cking bad! I'll be turned into dust with a single palm!'

'You guys are all big holes!' Chu Feng regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. Why did he come here? Who brought him here? They were all big holes!

"Humph!"

At the end of the Soul River, in the depths of the vile earth, a powerful origin creature was dissatisfied. It cheered for the unmatched creature, crying out for the unmatched creature, confronting the Dog Emperor, Jiu Daoyi, and the others.

Even that enormous eye gradually became cold, once again releasing a merciless cold light.

"The legendary one?" The owner of the eye spoke!

He had some doubts. That person had long disappeared for endless years, completely cut off from the heavens. He shouldn't be able to return.

When he thought of this, he actually released a sigh of relief from the depths of his heart.

Or was it the Heavenly Emperor that the Dog Emperor used to follow? He shouldn't have appeared either! He was suspected to be in that mysterious copper coffin, currently isolated from the rest of the world. No one could find him right now.

However, if the indistinct figure before him was deceiving him, why was his aura so terrifying, deep and immeasurable? Not even he could see through it.

This was especially the case with that great mist that was extremely strange, not even a creature of his level able to see through it. That was why this unmatched creature was endlessly bewildered.

"A strand of will descended?" The unmatched creature spoke again.

This place became quiet, no one replying.

I just won't say anything, I'll just silently look at you! Chu Feng maintained his original posture, not moving at all.

Tai Yi, Martial Emperor, and the others all felt that this person was too calm, calm and composed, not even paying attention to the unmatched creature's words.

This type of style, this type of style, who could compare to him?!

He looked down on the Soul River, ignoring the unmatched creature in the vile earth, truly stirring up the people behind him. Hot blood surged, all of them wishing they could shout along with him.

In the final destination, many creatures of the Soul River were alarmed. That person was too terrifying, actually not paying any attention to their unmatched lord, completely ignoring him.

This gave them a bad feeling. The Soul River wouldn't encounter a great disaster today, right?

In the eyes of the powerful creatures of the Soul River, that person was like an immortal great mountain, towering over them.

He was currently pressuring them. Could it be that he wanted to suppress the Soul River alone?!

Chu Feng's heart twitched. What kind of expressions are all of you making? Regardless of whether it is those damned monsters on the other side or the allies behind me, are you all purposely trying to kill me? Can't you all see that the cold light released by that large eyeball is about to sever the great dao? I can't help but take action!

However, what could he do? Forget it, my heart … is still the same. I'll just maintain this type of indifferent attitude!

He looked down on the Soul River, silently watching just like that. I just won't say anything!

In the vile earth, the unmatched creature's killing intent split the sea of stars!

Who was he? The unmatched being revered by all realms, the heavens feared a single thought from him, yet now, he was completely disregarded.

Even before he achieved the dao, he still had his own pride, let alone now.

Black mist surged, submerging the vile earth.

The ultimate place was a vast and boundless universe. The eye was suspended in the center, and boundless darkness covered it, appearing extremely terrifying.

For a moment, a strange aura covered the sky and earth!

"Be careful, don't be corroded by the ominous black mist!" The decayed corpse shouted, reminding the people around him that he had become like this because he had been corroded by all kinds of pollution sources in the past.

If it wasn't for the fact that he was heaven-defying enough, anyone else would have been killed long ago.

"Don't worry, the black mist can't come over." The Dog Emperor was calm. It felt that the figure was ten thousand times more reliable than Nine Daoyi, so there was no need to worry at all.

Chu Feng finally moved. He looked up at the sky, wanting to let out a long sigh. Was he going to be corroded to death?

However, in the eyes of others, this "character" was really incomparably high.

What was he doing? In the face of the unmatched killing intent, he completely ignored it, preferring to look up at the sky.

The owner of the Black Blood Research Institute couldn't control himself, and said with a trembling voice, "It's really … engulfing the universe, grand spirit, shocking the ancients and dazzling the contemporaries, unrivaled!"

F * ck … your grandpa, what are you saying? See if I don't die fast enough! Chu Feng wanted to beat him to death.

At this time, the abnormal scene was shocking. Endless black mist surged, completely erupting, corroding the great world outside. Large holes appeared in heaven and earth, and the river of time also had problems.

However, when all of the black mist rushed over, just as it approached not far from Chu Feng, golden patterns spread under his feet, stopping all of the black mist.

Moreover, with chi chi sounds, the inauspicious was evaporated, and then spiritual essence enshrouded, followed by a holy aura.

"This is the unmatched method, the body like a great bell, cleansing the ages, cleansing the heavens!" Someone shouted loudly.

Chu Feng accepted this compliment, inwardly … extremely comforted!

So I was actually this strong? He was floating in the air, so what if I let you corrode me? I'm impervious to all methods!

Then, he didn't say anything, holding his hands behind his back, silently gazing at the sky just like that.

Big eyeballs, I don't even want to look at you anymore!

At the end of the Soul River, in the ultimate land, the unmatched creature's pupils contracted, but he wasn't angry. The emotions of a normal creature had long since disappeared from his body, and what he had now was only battle intent, which was even more fierce.

The unmatched couldn't retreat, only fight!

Hong!

At this time, he was going to take action. The limits of the Soul River immediately exploded.

A large area of life force was so strong it couldn't scatter, surging. That was the place where the unmatched creature was recovering from his injuries, now releasing wisps of special matter.

These were all the highest essence produced by the Soul River, precious materials that were difficult to find throughout the world, impossible to see in the outside world.

Now, just the wisps that floated out already made one feel as if heaven and earth were different, as if they were everlasting, able to exist forever, thus becoming imperishable.

In that place, a terrifying figure gradually appeared. The unmatched creature was going to reveal his true body!

However, he also paid a great price, the only thing that could be clearly seen was his ice-cold eyes that were dripping with blood.

The great battle of the past left him with fatal injuries. Originally, this type of creature could affect the rise and fall of the heavens with a single thought, his true body impossible to erase.

However now, time flowed on, years passing by, yet his injuries were still far from healing!

The terrifying silhouette was part human, part vicious bird, filling and splitting the great cosmos, making one feel suffocated!

In the outside world, many experts immediately sensed this, to the extent where they could see the general outline of that terrifying creature in their sea of consciousness. They immediately trembled.

Many realms were cracking apart, the heavens seemingly about to fall.

This really was too terrifying!

"He who takes action first gains the advantage!" Nine Daoyi shouted.

Do you think I don't want to? Chu Feng was in grief and indignation. At this moment, if he had the strength, he would have long sent a slap over.

What could he do? He still maintained the same posture, his hands behind his back, watching flowers bloom and wither, clouds gather and scatter.

This time, the unmatched creature was truly angered. Even though his heart was previously like an ancient well without ripples, long cutting off those types of emotions, he still couldn't endure it.

That figure in the great mist with his hands behind his back really didn't put him in his eyes, still ignoring him even now. Just how arrogant and conceited was this?!

"Hah!"

The unmatched creature released a light shout, his true body moving. Rumbling sounds rang through the dark cosmos, ten thousand realms seemingly about to explode. The scene of countless dao ancestors' corpses lying beneath his feet illuminated the heavens.

Gu!

Suddenly, it was as if spring water was surging, as if a waterfall was hanging down. A white stream flew over from the ultimate land's depths, quickly gathering towards Chu Feng.

The life force was rich to the point where it couldn't be dissolved. This was the unmatched essence of the soul river!

Everyone was stupefied. That figure in the great mist with his hands behind his back was just too valiant, right? Was this looting the unmatched creature's recovery substance?

In that instant, at the end of the soul river, the sea of origin creatures were all shocked. They could clearly feel that the unmatched essence within the soul matter was being devoured.

Chu Feng was stupefied. The golden patterns beneath his feet were like a glutton, swallowing and drinking, absorbing the special precious substance within the depths of the vile earth.

"Unmatched and unmatched!"

In the rear, the bald male shouted loudly. Even though the battle hadn't started yet, he felt his blood that had cooled down for many years start to boil, his battle intent surging.

His mind surged. The past scenes reappeared, Celestial Emperor returned. Was he going to overturn the soul river today? There was only one word — fight!

The gurgling soul matter essence entered the golden patterns, quickly disappearing.

Chu Feng finally knew who did it. He saw the main culprit — the stone jar!

He had long suspected it, and in the end, it was finally confirmed. It was this thing that drew him to the soul river, running here to absorb the unmatched soul matter essence?

Something wasn't right. Soon after, he discovered another abnormality. There was something in the stone jar that was also absorbing the soul river's precious substance, producing traces of changes.

It was … a seed!

It wasn't the one that had taken root and sprouted before, but rather a new one.

When he first obtained it, there were three seeds in the stone jar.

One could still be considered normal, able to blossom and bear fruit.

The other was black and shriveled, a bit deformed, lacking vitality.

The remaining one was purplish-brown, flat as if it had been squashed.

The last two seeds hadn't shown any signs of activity after so many years.

Chu Feng tried everything he could, but he didn't see the slightest change.

They were very special. Back then, when he experienced reincarnation and sneaked into the world of the living, Chu Feng's physical body was torn to pieces, but the seed withstood the crushing of reincarnation and wasn't damaged in the slightest.

Today, that black and shriveled seed was actually absorbing the unmatched soul matter. It swelled up a bit, no longer dry, and also had a bit of vitality.

The seed had revived?

Chu Feng looked inside, observing the stone jar and seed in his body. He simply didn't dare to believe that one of the lifeless seeds actually glowed with a bit of vitality.

Now, he couldn't help but wonder how he had come here in the end. Was it driven by the jar or by the seed? It was full of confusion.

In any case, there was something strange about the jar and seed, and he couldn't guess their origins.

All of this happened in the time it took for a spark to fly off a flint, leaving no time for Chu Feng to think too much.

At this time, the unmatched creature was furious!

Ransack him in his lair right in front of him? This was intolerable!

This was especially the case now, when he already took action, but that figure in the great mist was still robbing him, completely unrestrained, stealing his recovery matter from the ultimate destination.

The most infuriating thing was that the figure in the great mist still had his hands behind his back, still looking into the sky.

This really was unbearable. He stole the unmatched soul matter in a righteous and confident manner, yet he was still being ignored like this? This was completely unreasonable!

If it was someone else with an explosive temper, their lungs and heart might explode!

He no longer endured it, truly having had enough!

In his hands, a resplendent long blade appeared. It was sparkling and translucent, releasing nine-colored auspicious multicolored light, engulfing the heavens.

Ten thousand worlds trembled, many void rumbling, reflecting this blade. It left all of the great worlds shaken, countless evolvers shivering in fear.

The unmatched creature at the limits of the ultimate destination took action, brandishing his weapon, releasing a world shocking blade!

It was too terrifying. That blade was dazzling to the extreme, reaching the soul river from the depths of the dark cosmos, arriving at the battlefield of emperors, piercing through the starry sky of the cosmos.

This was, without a doubt, a world dominating blade, carrying the anger of an unmatched being!

"Be careful!"

The bald man growled, clenching his fists tightly. Although he knew that he didn't have the qualifications to intervene, because he cared too much and was too nervous, he still felt a strong sense of unease.

"Kill!" At this time, even the Martial Madman couldn't help but shout out, hoping that person would unleash an attack that would dominate the heavens and earth.

He also went a little crazy.

He wasn't the only one, the master of the Black Blood Research Institute and the others also felt the same, as if they were facing a blade that shocked the heavens and ten thousand worlds, their soul light was trembling.

If it wasn't for that person blocking in front of them, in addition to the protection of the emperor's bell, and the battle spear that covered the sky, they probably wouldn't be able to stand here.

Was a true great battle about to erupt? Everyone was incomparably nervous.

However, wasn't that person too calm?

No, he finally moved. In the time it took for a spark to fly off a flint, he turned around and looked towards the end of the soul river, staring at the unmatched being in the vile earth.

You … are still watching? He was still so calm, truly as steady as an old dog, so steady that the rotten corpse and the others were panicking.

That figure in the great fog was too f * cking calm. This won't do. The crystalline nine-colored long blade pierced through the great universe and slashed down in front of you, yet you still didn't make a move?!

That instant also meant eternity.

These were all things that could happen in a single thought of the powerful being.

"Kill!" Nine Daoyi roared. He was too worried. Why wasn't he making a move? Was he going to passively wait for the unmatched being in the soul river to kill him?

"You're going too far!"

The others hadn't even gotten angry, but the unmatched being in the soul river was already roaring. Did you look down on me that much? Even now, you're still pretending!

Chu Feng wanted to cry. If he could fight, he would've long since made a move!

Whether he fought or not, whether he made a move or not, there was only one result. What could he do? Naturally, he would continue to look at the clouds in the horizon and the distant waves of the soul river. In any case, he wouldn't look at him.

In the eyes of the unmatched being, this was a naked provocation, contempt, and looking down on an ant. It was as if it was saying to him, 'Look, I'm indifferent even when you make a move.'

That was why his emotions were boiling. He had to cut down that figure in the great fog with a single blade!

Everyone's scalps went numb. Could it be avoided? Could it be that he had to use the great dao to obliterate that blade?

Boom!

In that instant, shocking changes took place. Golden patterns covered Chu Feng's body densely, protecting him within.

This wasn't all. Outside the golden patterns, there was a layer of blood-colored halo that supported the outside. It was as if a golden flame was dyed in blood, and the golden body shone with scarlet light.

That blade really didn't cut down!

It was because it was blocked by a large hand. A bare hand stopped the sparkling and dazzling nine-colored long blade, preventing it from cutting down. As for the blade radiance and great dao laws, they were also being crushed by the large hand.

At this moment, the heavens and ten thousand realms rumbled and trembled violently.

"What is that?!" Even Nine Daoyi cried out in alarm.

"Emperor patterns illuminate ten thousand realms. As for the outer layer of blood, it is the blood of enemies bathed in the past great battles, soaking the body and emerging. Celestial Emperor has returned!" The fallen corpse roared.

Chu Feng himself was shocked. He could understand the golden patterns, and they most likely originated from the stone jar. Today, this jar revived, desiring the unmatched wondrous substance of the soul river.

However, what was the blood-colored halo on the outermost layer of his body? He was a bit stupefied.

That large hand was formed from the blood-colored halo. Chu Feng himself still had his hands behind his back, not moving at all. He just looked at the unmatched creature in the soul river.

Roar!

In the depths of the vile earth, the unmatched creature roared angrily. You're still fucking looking at me?!

This was especially the case when the other party didn't move his true body. How could he not be angry? He was looking down on him too much.

The unmatched creature wanted to berate him. You dare look down on me? Unforgivable, unforgivable! Kill!

He activated the long blade again. That enormous eye in the darkness was dripping blood. When it opened and closed, ten thousand dao symbols were destroyed, and the laws of the heavens were all breaking apart.

The unmatched creature erupted with the most powerful attack, wishing to wipe out that figure.

What left him shocked and furious was that a wave of terrifying aura suddenly covered over, making him feel as if he was trapped in a swamp. He was actually going to be locked in place!

At the same time, within the blood-colored halo behind Chu Feng, a large hand appeared, slapping forward!

Where are you going to hit?!

The unmatched creature's blood was boiling!

That large hand's speed was too fast, covering his head. Was this … a head-stroking attack?!

The most excessive, the thing that made him furious was that the strength of that large hand wasn't all that great, patting his head again and again. Was this humiliating him?!

Meanwhile, he actually couldn't evade, his body going rigid. This left him shocked, great waves surging within him. There was actually a creature who could do this to him!

"Slap your dog head!" In the distance, the rotten corpse roared loudly, cheering.

When the Dog Emperor heard this, he didn't even react, not paying him any attention. He was currently shaking from excitement, unable to pay anything else any attention.

This was simply unimaginable. An unmatched creature was slapped several times like this? Was this to suppress and kill him, or to humiliate and educate him?

At the end of the Soul River, countless origin creatures were all terrified, all of them trembling. The invincible master of the Soul River in their hearts was actually being suppressed.

Could it be that the legendary one had really returned? Great waves struck the heavens in everyone's hearts!

At this time, Chu Feng's hair stood on end, because he realized that there was a huge problem here. Who was it that was attacking?

This kind of feeling made him feel uneasy, made him shiver. He could feel that there seemed to be something behind him, as if there was some indescribable creature.

He could even hear the sound of breathing, right at the back of his neck. Just what was it, who was it?!

He had never thought that apart from the stone jar and the seed, there was still something he couldn't understand. When did he get involved with it? He was shocked.

At this moment, the Dog Emperor was trembling, and even his heart was trembling. He was so excited that he almost cried out, tears welling up in his eyes.

He was finally sure that this kind of power, this kind of combat prowess, was definitely not a phantom, not some strand of will descending, should be the true body of a supreme being returning.

How many years had it been? Had he seen him again?

He stared at the back of that figure, but the fog was too thick, and he couldn't see through it. Was it really him? Brother Celestial Emperor!

At this time, Jiudao's lips were trembling, and his whole body was trembling in disbelief. He had guessed that it was someone else. Was it that person who had returned?!

He had prayed in front of the spear all year round, making wishes for countless years, but they had all failed. There had never been any movement.

Now … that person had returned just like that?!

Who claimed to be invincible?! Jiudao's eyes were red, and he wanted to cry and roar out loud.

As long as that person had returned, who would he be afraid of? He should be able to destroy the ominous and the ominous, and sweep everything clean. Who would dare to jump out?

Just as he had said before, who wouldn't accept it?!

Was it that person? Jiudao couldn't see through that special fog.

Celestial Emperor! The Dog Emperor's muddy eyes were filled with hot tears, and he wanted to shout out loud. As long as he returned, everything would be solved.

What Soul River? After so many years, it should have been destroyed and wiped clean!

At this moment, what could Chu Feng do? My heart is still the same. With my hands behind my back, I will look at all of you in silence!

However, when this landed in everyone's eyes, it was a supreme, profound, and unfathomable presence. It was an incomparably great might.
