"They are all going to die. Another era has ended, the curtains have fallen!"
In this indistinct land, a supreme being spoke.
They were high and mighty, overlooking other people's joys and sorrows, coldly watching other people's sad songs. They had long since become indifferent.
This place was isolated from the heavens, not like a real world. It was extremely hazy, as if it was the projection of a boundless ancient land that formed an otherworldly world.
They decided to follow the will of the heavens, or it could be said to follow the inscription patterns on the falling yellow paper.
The chrysalis was rather moved. "Another great era has ended. Since ancient times, how many people have been able to share immortality with us? Sigh, the heavens above and the earth below, the blue skies of the underworld, the vast oceans and the mortal world, how many creatures can remain? They are destined to die! "
No one said anything. If it weren't for the fact that that person might come back today, they would still be as cold as before. But now, there was actually such a low level of emotional fluctuation.
"What's going on in the outside world? How much longer do we have to wait?" the creature from the ancient underworld asked.
"Wait for him to dissipate, until eternal silence." The monster from the Celestial Emperor's Burial Pit spoke.
He was extremely malevolent. His entire body was covered in bumps and oozing pus and blood. The head of a beast was connected to a rotting human head. His crocodile mouth was wide open and his teeth were protruding. His body was irregular and asymmetrical. It was extremely terrifying.
"The Great Gray Rite. A new era is about to begin. Will the Officiant appear?" the Eight-Headed Supremacy asked.
This kind of topic seemed to be taboo. The other creatures all closed their mouths and didn't immediately reply. They all seemed very silent.
After a long time, the chrysalis lowered its voice and said, "Let's wait."
For a moment, the place became quiet, and no one spoke.
Time flowed on. Outside the heavens, outside the world, everyone was extremely patient. They weren't willing to rashly head out and run into that person.
At this time, the monolith in the outside world was still shining, and it had indeed not weakened. On the platform constructed from symbols, golden light began to appear under the soles of the feet.
It was as if he was stepping on a thousand autumns, standing in the endless river of time. Light particles continuously flew over, condensing into form. At the very least, his bare feet began to appear.
However, that was all there was to it. It was more or less enough. If there wasn't someone powerful enough to deal with it, and if there wasn't an extremely powerful external force to continuously stimulate it, then this was the only way.
What was going on? The owner of the Black Blood Research Institute, the Martial Madman, and the others were all shocked.
Nine Daoyi, on the other hand, was observing Chu Feng. Who was this person in the fog?
The Dog Emperor's expression was even more complicated. In the end, he secretly transmitted his voice to Chu Feng, asking for his advice, "Have those supreme beings really retreated?"
"They've retreated for the time being. We'll retreat too!" Chu Feng replied.
Now was the time to leave.
Too many things happened today, so it wasn't good to continue fighting. Several unmatched beings came. If not for the steles appearing, symbols rushing into the heavens, a pair of feet descending, interrupting everything, it would have been extremely troublesome!
Hearing that, the Dog Emperor looked excited.
Chu Feng was surprised that it had such an expression on its face. Nine Dao Yi and the others also felt that it was strange.
"It's good that you left!" The Dog Emperor raised its paw and smacked its square head on its ear. With a loud thud, it smacked its ear so hard that everyone felt the pain for it.
"If you want to mutilate yourself, I'll knock your head for you. I guarantee that I'm skilled enough to not injure your brain after I open your skull," said the decayed corpse as he shook the pickaxe in his hand.
"Martial uncle, don't take things too hard!" The bald male was a bit anxious, thinking that the Dog Emperor had gone mad. He was worried that its mind would go crazy because it couldn't pick the strongest medicine.
"Unseal!" Who would have thought that the Dog Emperor wouldn't pay them any attention. It wasn't the slightest bit angry and instead became extremely serious, using an incantation on itself.
With a weng sound, its square head and large ears trembled slightly. A thousand streaks of auspicious multicolored light flew out from its head, turning into inscription patterns. Then, it woke up and quickly activated the Emperor Bell, engraving some type of mysterious patterns on it.
"Brother Zhong, this is the true meaning of emperor patterns. Hurry and revive him!" This was the Dog Emperor's urgent words. Then, the damaged bell silently shone, its entire body seemingly burning red. A scripture appeared, rumbling slightly here.
Nine Dao Yi's eyes were deep. "This dog thing's goal in coming here isn't pure. It might not be to find medicine. It hid it from even itself, sealing its sea of mind ahead of time and even deceiving us. Now that the seal has been removed, it will truly start to cause trouble. "
"Dog, what are you trying to do? You really are shameless, hiding it from us?!" The decayed corpse wasn't having it.
The Dog Emperor snapped back to reality and said, "We'll talk later!"
Everyone was speechless. What exactly did this dog thing want to do?
Sou, sou, sou!
Strange changes occurred. The damaged bell rang softly, and the symbols on its body became densely packed, as if they were trembling scriptures. Its body also became burning red, causing the entire soul river to resonate.
Strand after strand of light appeared, accompanied by light crisp sounds. Were those metal fragments or crushed stones?
There were all kinds of small fragments that flew over. Then, they all entered the damaged bell, becoming one with it and gradually mending the great bell.
There were clock pieces, and even the most crucial pendulum within the bell. It was actually mended in such a short period of time, becoming more complete.
The Dog Emperor immediately became excited, touching the pendulum.
"There's a bit more hope of revival!"
It trembled, revealing its true feelings, as if it had seen some type of hope.
The great bell wasn't mended in the end, but the pendulum was more than eighty percent complete. It was completely quiet, no longer burning red, and the symbols were all restrained.
"The Great Emperor accompanied the bell his entire life. There are wisps of his source, nourished within the pendulum. I want to find it!" The Dog Emperor spoke.
In the end, it still wanted to revive the emperor corpse.
There wasn't a great medicine with strong medicinal properties, but if it could find wisps of emperor source, then it would similarly be effective!
Only, back then, it was destroyed, and the pendulum exploded. Would there still be any emperor source left behind?
One had to bear in mind that the pieces that were pieced back together were all dregs, losing their spirituality. They were buried in the mountain walls and soul river, and no abnormalities could be seen.
Otherwise, why would the unmatched creature leave them at its doorstep? It would have long since destroyed them.
However, there were too many dregs. After forming the pendulum, the Dog Emperor carefully examined it, actually finding a wisp of source. It was just that it was too weak, too little.
"As long as there is, there will definitely be hope in the future!" The Dog Emperor was no longer sad.
"Then let's hurry and leave!" Chu Feng said. They couldn't stay here any longer, because no one could be sure when the feet on the monument would disappear.
In the end, it wasn't that person's true body that returned. According to the abyss unmatched creature's speculations, this might just be the condensation of his aura, reflected from the eternal river of time.
Nine Daos sighed, feeling sentimental. However, what could they do?
"Go!" He waved his hand, resolutely turning around, no longer looking at the feet on the monument.
"What are you waiting for? Run!" The Dog Emperor also shouted. It used the Monarch Bell to lift the monarch corpse, and carried the little sacred ape himself. Then, it directly dashed out, faster than anyone else.
Behind them was naturally Chu Feng, in charge of bringing up the rear!
"Uncle-master, slow down. Pay attention to your image!" the bald man reminded from behind.
He was indeed somewhat dissatisfied. They had agreed to attack the Soul River, but in the end, the Dog Emperor was the first to run. Moreover, he was wearing nine-colored underpants, which was too unconventional and flirtatious.
Weren't you in the pro-war faction? Why did you look like a cornered dog jumping over a wall? In the blink of an eye, the dog's shadow was almost out of sight.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Let's run and leave the Soul River first!" the Dog Emperor growled. At the same time, he wiped off his cold sweat and said, "You scared me to death!"
Everyone was speechless, not understanding what he meant.
What kind of cultivation did they have? Even the weakest among them was at the ultimate level, and that wasn't all. There was a mysterious black shadow behind them that was connected to an unknown world.
Tai Yi, the Martial Madman, and the master of the Black Blood Research Institute could all be borrowed!
In an instant, they left the abyss, escaped out of the middle world, and then left the Soul River. They followed the secret path back to the world of the living.
"Uncle-master, do you have to run like this?" The bald man blushed on its behalf. The Dog Emperor had been unyielding for so long, but in the end, it couldn't even protect its chastity when it left. It was so embarrassing.
The Dog Emperor turned around and saw that the stone tablet was glowing. The legs on it were still there. It heaved a long sigh of relief and said, "What do you know!"
Then, it actually wiped off its cold sweat again, and with a look of lingering fear, it said, "The Teacher said that I was scared to death!"
Everyone was speechless. Why did this dog become so timid?
Even the rotten corpse was looking down on it. It patted its head and said, "Look at you. Don't tell me you know me!"
The Dog Emperor wasn't angry. Instead, it said with some embarrassment, "Didn't I know what happened after my soul was unsealed just now?"
Then, it quickly explained that it didn't want to attack the Soul River at all. It was just a bluff. If it could dig up medicine, it would, and if it couldn't, it wouldn't force itself. In fact, it mainly wanted to take a stroll here and find the pendulum.
It couldn't reveal its true purpose in advance for fear of being sensed by a supreme being. When the time came, everything would be for naught, so it sealed off part of its soul light.
The Dog Emperor said, "I really didn't expect that we would almost fight to the death with a supreme being!"
It wiped off its sweat. This time, it had really gone too far in its probing, and it had long since deviated from its original intention.
"You lied to us, and then you even lied to yourself. You dog!" The rotten corpse was indignant. Earlier, this dog looked like it was going to meet its death and had called out to him.
In the end, it didn't want to fight to the death. Everything was just deceiving him.
The Dog Emperor explained, "I really feel that there's something wrong with the Soul River, and the supreme being most likely can't come out. That's why I came to probe. It's best if I can successfully achieve my goal, but it doesn't matter even if I fail because I have a backup plan."
It told them that it indeed had Celestial Emperor's backup plan on its body, and it could launch an attack. Moreover, after this attack, resplendent runes would wrap around them and bring them away. It might even bring them to the side of the missing Celestial Emperor.
"Hiss!" Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
This dog's trump card could actually bring everyone to the side of Celestial Emperor and find his true body? This was astonishing!
"There's a fifty-fifty chance that I'll go to his side, and there's also a fifty-fifty chance that I won't go to his side, but it'll definitely transport me to an absolutely safe area."
This was the Dog Emperor's confidence, so it dared to come.
Then, it said smugly, "Moreover, do you guys really think that I've gone mad and rashly come here to fight a decisive battle? Isn't that courting death? Who am I? Have I ever suffered a loss in my life? I'm here to ask for benefits, understand?! After so many years, I've researched this place for a long time, and I've more or less figured it out! "
It added, "I hypnotized myself to face death with equanimity and fight the Soul River. Actually, I also wanted to see if there were still a few acquaintances who haven't died, so I wanted to blast them out and make you guys come back to life."
F * ck you!
The decayed corpse, the bald man, and the Nine Daoyi were all speechless, and they stared at it with unkind expressions.
This dog first deceived itself, and then it deceived them.
"I really didn't expect that the Supreme would come out!" The Dog Emperor sighed. This was beyond its expectations. It had researched the Soul River for a long time, and it didn't think that such a big guy would appear.
Of course, it wasn't afraid, either. If it really reached a critical moment, its trump card would automatically activate, and it would bring away the people in its camp, disappearing safely from this place.
Very soon, it became sad again. This time, it wasn't acting, and it wasn't trying to deceive people. It was truly sad. It hugged the little sacred ape, and said, "The monkey is dead."
The decayed corpse patted its shoulder, and said, "This isn't your fault. What's left of it is a remnant will, and it died many years ago. If there was a hope of survival, even if it had some origin energy or a wisp of soul light, it wouldn't have ended up like this. "
The Dog Emperor nodded. Even if the monkey was only a corpse, or if it had some soul light, its trump card would activate on its own, and it would quickly bring everyone away.
"Say, do you think that the monkey isn't dead, and is actually still alive?" The decayed corpse suddenly spoke, and said, "I don't know why, but I keep feeling that something isn't right. Not only him, but I also have some doubts about my own rotting body. I don't know the reason."
"Forget it, let's leave this place first!" the Dog Emperor said.
Then, with a boom, a huge sound actually came from the shore of the Soul River behind them. That pair of feet left the platform, stepping on the void, and moved along the river toward the ultimate destination.
Everyone was dumbfounded, and the Nine Daoyi was even more shaken. What was going on?!
That person actually moved again!
The Dog Emperor and the decayed corpse didn't want to leave anymore. They really wanted to see what that pair of feet was going to do. Could it be that it was going to flatten the Soul River?!
Boom!
As it moved, golden footprints were left in the void one after another, like patterns of the great dao, divine and sparkling. Moreover, a rain of light drifted down, and it was branded in the void.
Wherever the two feet passed, a line of footprints was left behind, and it was difficult to erase them. In an instant, it entered the abyss.
That pair of feet actually entered the abyss, and the Nine Daoyi was shocked. Could it be that it was going to flatten this place?
At this time, the few of them couldn't see it anymore. That pair of feet entered the pitch-black abyss, walked through the chaos, and headed toward a legendary place that couldn't be approached.
"He … really went in?!" The Dog Emperor was shocked.
"Then what about us?" the bald man asked.
"Let's retreat first. Let's get as far away as possible. Something will happen eventually!" The decayed corpse was very serious.
"Yes!" The Nine Daoyi also nodded.
At this time, Chu Feng, who was bringing up the rear, walked over. He felt waves of goosebumps, because he felt like he was carrying someone on his back!
The blood-colored halo behind him gradually faded away, but the fog was still there, and that blurry creature seemed to still be there. Moreover, it seemed to be lying on his back, making him feel bone-chilling cold, as if he was carrying a corpse on his back.
"Wait a moment. Can you guys see what's on my back?" Chu Feng couldn't help but say to the few of them.
"I can't see clearly. It's also shrouded in fog. You … who are you?!" the Dog Emperor asked.
Nine Daoyi and Li Xu also looked puzzled. The Martial Emperor and Tai Yi were also looking at him, wanting to know his identity.
The decayed corpse even asked him to reveal his true appearance.
Chu Feng didn't want to reveal his true appearance even if he was beaten to death. At that time, that dog would probably go crazy. Back then, he had interacted with it, and it had told him to help it find people and gather herbs, or else it would curse him.
He didn't want to have anything to do with this dog. He always felt that this old black dog was very unreliable, and it was too crazy today!
Besides, he also wanted to keep a respectful distance from Nine Daoyi. This kind of old monster was too scary, and his background was complicated. Just look at what he had done. He didn't want to get too close to him.
As for Li Xu, this guy was too evil. Even his sworn brother, Old Gu, was tormented by him until he couldn't cry, but he couldn't not cry either. He was practically hovering between life and death, so it was better for him to stay away from him.
As for the Martial Madman, it was even better not to see him again!
Chu Feng had just raided his lair, and on top of the old grudges, if the Martial Madman found out what had happened, he would probably swallow him alive!
In fact, if not for the fact that he couldn't fully control his current power, and the fact that the Martial Madman was on the same side as him and had performed well just now, Chu Feng would have had the urge to kill him.
Forget it, I am a merciful person. I will let bygones be bygones. If there is enmity in the future, we will talk about it! Chu Feng said in his heart.
Seeing that he was silent, the others didn't ask any more questions. They were still very wary of him. After all, he was a mysterious expert who was suspected to be supreme.
However, there were still some among them who secretly glanced at Chu Feng from time to time, because they felt that he was a little strange.
Unfortunately, the mysterious fog obscured everything, and in addition to the golden runes on the stone jar, even if they weren't far away, these people couldn't tell who Chu Feng was.
The Martial Emperor felt that he had missed something, so he secretly peeked at Chu Feng once. He shook his head and didn't dare to offend him. Once was enough.
Who was he? He felt that it was a little strange.
Then, the Martial Madman looked at the Dog Emperor and asked for his master's Dao bone.
The Dog Emperor mumbled, "I picked it up, and you want me to give it to you for free? Don't you want to redeem it?!"
It had never wanted to spit it out after entering its mouth.
However, seeing that this old bastard was doing very well today, it felt a little embarrassed and couldn't just not give it to him.
The Martial Emperor wanted to punch the dog's face and ask, 'Why did you go to my dojo to pick it up? What else did you steal?! '
"So stingy, I'll give it to you later!" the Dog Emperor said.
This angered the Martial Madman so much that he almost flipped out. That was his master's Dao bone! Was he even reasonable?
The Martial Emperor wanted to say, 'The world says that I'm unreasonable, wiping out people's families at every turn, and exterminating entire families.' But now, this dog made him want to vomit blood.
Rumble!
Suddenly, the heavens rumbled and trembled, as if it was really going to fall!
The boundary walls of many worlds that were connected to the chaotic zone were all cracked, as if they were going to run through the heavens.
"What happened? Did that person go in and start a massacre?!" The decayed corpse was shocked.
At this moment, a pair of glowing feet left a string of golden footprints in the void. It was the same in the primal chaos. It walked out into the world beyond and faced a blurry land.
Then, his feet moved forward, step by step, stepping into the indistinct land. That place cracked and caved in. That person's feet really did enter!
"How is this possible? How can he come in? This isn't the real world! He doesn't have the sacrificial patterns carved on our bodies, so how can he come in?! "
The Eight-Headed Supreme Being was shocked.
"Don't worry about this. He's not coming for us, he's looking for the main sacrificial ground. Don't hide it, don't stop him. If he can go in, he's dead for sure!" The supreme being of the ancient underworld secretly transmitted his voice.
The pair of feet walked over, leaving golden footprints behind. They flowed with great dao patterns and sprinkled down a rain of light. The footprints were branded in the void and couldn't be erased!
"An epoch is an autumn. If the heavens wither like fallen flowers, the myriad worlds will turn into dust and fall. Who will stand after a thousand autumns?" As if separated by many epochs, a sigh could vaguely be heard!
When the pair of feet stopped, it gave off a strange and shocking feeling. There seemed to be a hazy figure that was about to fully emerge above the feet.
At the same time, in the outside world, above the firmament, there was also a strange movement.
One could vaguely see a coffin slowly floating over. It was actually approaching the world of the living!
