As the saying went, if you did not die in silence, you would erupt in silence.
Shen Tu was about to advance to the finals, only a step away from marrying the Empyrean Fairy. How could he be willing to give up now?
"Good, good, good!"
Shen Tu bellowed out. His expression was slightly vicious and deranged, and he even said 'good' three times in a row.
"Then let this emperor see just what you're capable of, Myriad Poison Ancestor."
Since he had already reached this point, there was nothing more Shen Tu could say. He directly pushed his essence, energy, and soul to the peak, and he wielded the Book of Life and Death. An extremely terrifying pulse erupted around Shen Tu.
This was a battle with his back to the wall. If he did not advance, he would fall back. No matter what, how could Shen Tu be willing to give up without a fight?
"Suppress!"
Shen Tu formed a supreme ghost seal, and the ghostly mist around him rushed into the air. The supreme treasure of the Underworld, the Book of Life and Death, buzzed as the light of the six paths of reincarnation appeared, crushing towards the Myriad Poison Ancestor with boundless pressure.
"You're just showing off before an expert!"
The Myriad Poison Ancestor sneered. He did not seem to do anything, but the laws of the world around him surged. The boundless starry sky suddenly darkened, and strands of chaotic light appeared around him.
"Heaven and Earth Transformation!"
The Myriad Poison Ancestor bellowed out. When he extended a finger, the chaotic field twisted to the extreme. Strands of chaotic light descended from the starry sky, drawing an extremely terrifying star chart, directly enveloping the entire field.
Clang!
The Book of Life and Death was sent flying, and the light of the six paths of reincarnation collapsed. Shen Tu shrieked out in fright as yin light surged around him, protecting himself in the centre. He hoped he could block the Myriad Poison Ancestor's terrifying technique.
Bang!
The yin light exploded and blood splattered across the sky. Shen Tu let out a blood-curdling scream as the yin light around him shattered inch by inch. His illusory Ghost Immortal body was constantly being destroyed. His entire body was like a falling meteor as he was ruthlessly smashed out of the Chaotic Dao Field.
Rumble!
Shen Tu's damaged body smashed through one star after another. The Myriad Poison Ancestor's strike condensed from the laws of the world directly sent Shen Tu flying. Its earth-shaking power was far too terrifying, as it was an attack from a Quasi-Saint. How could Shen Tu block it?
"Hmph, considering you're one of the Five Emperors of the Underworld, I'll spare your life today." The Myriad Poison Ancestor stood with his hands behind his back as his voice echoed through the starry sky.
Puff!
Blood spurted out from Shen Tu's mouth as he dragged his battered body back from the depths of the Starry Sky. However, there was no place on his body that was intact, and the Book of Life and Death in his hand was no longer moving.
"This Emperor admits defeat!"
Shen Tu gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. Even though he was absolutely unwilling to accept this, he knew he was not the Myriad Poison Ancestor's opponent after witnessing the attacks of a Quasi-Saint. If he continued fighting, he would only end up dying.
A battle without any suspense came to an end just like that, and the result was not surprising to the various great powers.
The Myriad Poison Ancestor left the stage, and the bell that echoed through thousands of kilometers rang out. It meant the second battle had officially begun.
Ye Xuan was dressed in black, and his black hair draped behind his head. When he took a step out, he silently appeared in the centre of the Primal Chaos Hall. He did not give off any aura at all.
The Yellow Springs Daoist was hunched over, like an old man at sunset. He strolled into the Primal Chaos Hall before smiling at Ye Xuan. However, his gaze towards Ye Xuan was mixed.
"Please!"
Ye Xuan did not waste any words, nor did he underestimate the Yellow Springs Daoist. This was because he could sense that apart from the Myriad Poison Ancestor, the Yellow Springs Daoist could be described as the strongest person in the entire gathering. Even Shen Tu might not necessarily be the Yellow Springs Daoist's opponent.
Up in the sky and down in the Yellow Springs, there was nowhere to be seen!
The Yellow Springs Daoist cultivated in the depths of the Yellow Springs, and he practised the unfathomable Immortal Scripture of the Yellow Springs. He was indeed a great opponent!
"Ye Tiandi, please wait!"
Before Ye Xuan could do anything, the Yellow Springs Daoist called out gently. He did not show any signs of wanting to fight Ye Xuan, which made Ye Xuan and the spectating great masters all watch in surprise.
The Yellow Springs Daoist could completely sense Ye Xuan's doubts, which also made him let out a long sigh. "A Quasi-Saint has appeared. Even if I end up winning in a battle of life and death against the Celestial Emperor, I'm not the opponent of a Quasi-Saint. If that's the case, why should I fight the Celestial Emperor to the death?"
"I concede!"
Under the stunned gazes of the great masters, the Yellow Springs Daoist clasped his hands towards Ye Xuan. His voice echoed through the Primal Chaos Hall.
At this moment!
Ye Xuan sighed inside. He had no idea whether he should rejoice or feel vexed. Ever since the Myriad Poison Ancestor revealed his Quasi-Saint status, the other participants had already lost their will to fight. The Yellow Springs Daoist's automatic forfeit had instead benefited him.
"Ye Tiandi's cultivation is unrivaled. I admire you greatly. If the Celestial Emperor descends upon the underworld one day, you can definitely pay a visit to the Yellow Springs Palace. I'll be ready to welcome you. I'm willing to discuss the path with the heavens and earth," the Yellow Springs Daoist said hoarsely. Daoist Huang Quan said in a hoarse voice as he directly left the Primal Chaos Dao Field. This also symbolized Ye Xuan's victory in this competition.
"What a brilliant move, Daoist Yellow Springs!" the Roc Demon said sternly. His gaze towards the Yellow Springs Daoist was filled with admiration.
Actually, the Yellow Springs Daoist had made the right choice.
Even if Daoist Huang Quan defeated Ye Xuan, he would suffer an extremely heavy injury. Moreover, he would have to face a quasi-sage like the Myriad Poison Ancestor. In the end, he would still be defeated. If he died miserably at the hands of the Myriad Poison Ancestor, it would be even more of a loss.
However, the Yellow Springs Daoist forfeited. Not only had he preserved his cultivation and strength, but he had also sold Ye Xuan a favour, allowing him to form a good relationship with Ye Xuan. It could be described as an extremely correct choice.
Rumble!
Suddenly, Sacred Light spread out from the depths of the starry sea. Mother Nuwa, who had remained motionless all this time, began to walk out from the depths of the starry sea. The Sacred Light that seemed to be indestructible by all tribulations covered her, making it impossible to see what she looked like.
"Greetings, empress Nüwa!"
With the arrival of a saint, all living beings bowed in worship. The great cultivators of various places all knelt in worship. Even the Myriad Poison Ancestor, a Quasi-Saint, was no exception. The only person who did not kneel in worship towards Nüwa was Ye Xuan, who stood in the centre of the Primal Chaos Hall.
"Big brother, hurry up and pay your respects to the saint!"
When the Roc Demon saw Ye Xuan standing still, his face immediately paled. He even secretly communicated with him secretly, but he did not receive any reply from Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan's disrespect towards the saint obviously caught the attention of the great cultivators of various places. This also made them all look towards Ye Xuan, and a smear of shock flashed through their eyes.
Had Ye Xuan lost his mind?
Mad, he had to be mad. The empress Nüwa had come in person, yet he did not kneel in worship. Was he tired of living?
Ye Xuan was looking for death. Everyone below the Saint was an ant. If he made the empress Nüwa displeased, she could kill him instantly.
