(My chapter is huge, so please bear with it!)
After a long time, Su Yin and Gu Ling'er looked at each other helplessly.
They had found the border, but they still couldn't leave without a door!
"This kind of realm barrier is the greatest guarantee for the Celestial World to establish a foothold in the Primal Chaos. Since it can stop the Primal Chaos Beasts from entering, it's only natural that the people inside can't leave …"
Gu Ling'er sighed.
The fact that the barrier could last for hundreds of thousands of years without any change was a testament to how powerful it was.
"Let's find a way to find the divine beast diagrams!"
Su Yin shook his head. He knew that he wouldn't be able to enter the Primal Chaos if he continued to stay here.
Putting aside the Celestial World, just the barrier of the Dry Origin World was made up of the Bi 'an's tortoise shell, the Firmament Pearl, the hide of the Ironeater, the Dijiang Beast, and the leaves of various plants. It was almost impossible for someone of Crown Prince Xiao Shi's cultivation to break through it!
If others couldn't break through his own realm barrier, it was understandable that he couldn't break through others' as well.
However, before returning, he had to have a good meal first!
Rumble!
Su Yin spread out his limbs, and it was as if he had turned into a black hole that could devour all things. All of the chaotic spiritual energy that seeped through the barrier was sucked into his body. The Dry Origin World also underwent a drastic change under the support of his will. Layers upon layers of space folded together, transforming the violent energy into something that could be absorbed by ordinary people.
After devouring for an unknown period of time, a vacuum appeared in the sky above the Celestial World.
"This should be enough for three days …"
Su Yin heaved a sigh of relief.
After devouring the chaotic spiritual energy, the Dry Origin World was filled with sufficient spiritual energy. Not only did it restore the shrinking space, but it also accumulated enough energy for all of his worshippers to cultivate for three days.
It wasn't that he didn't want to continue, but the barrier's absorption rate of chaotic spiritual energy was limited. He had already devoured all of the energy that the Celestial World had accumulated over countless years.
Therefore, even though they had arrived at the border of the Celestial World and seen the Primal Chaos, it was still a temporary solution. If they wanted to transcend, they had to find the door and leave.
"Let's go!"
Knowing that there was no point in continuing to stay here, Su Yin was too lazy to say anything more. He walked back with Gu Ling'er.
Closer to the edge of the Immortal World, there were far more Void Stones than they had seen before. The two of them plundered everything clean. Just as they were about to return to the Human Emperor Sacred Ground to make further plans, they sensed a vast aura passing through the turbulence not far away.
"Someone is cultivating!" Gu Ling 'er raised her eyebrows.
Su Yin nodded slightly. The power of the Dry Origin Realm enveloped him and the girl at the same time, immediately concealing their powerful auras.
The space turbulence was filled with shattered space and danger lurked everywhere. Since someone dared to cultivate here, there was no need to guess. His cultivation must be extremely strong, surpassing that of a world overlord!
Hiding behind a spatial crack, the two of them looked at the source of the power.
The young man floated quietly in mid-air, a whip-like river revolving around him.
Nourished by the river, it was as if a massive dragon was hidden within the young man's body, roaring non-stop. His mind, spirit, and vitality had reached an unfathomable level.
Peak of the Divine Fusion Realm!
Compared to him, it was not the slightest bit weaker.
"Xue Qianqiu? The Dragon God's Whip? "
Su Yin blinked his eyes in confusion.
Wasn't the Dragon God's Whip with Crown Prince Xiao Shi?
How did the young man manage to assimilate it and make a breakthrough?
Boom boom boom!
But before Zhang Xuan could recover from his confusion, the young man had already assimilated the Dragon God's Whip. Amidst a loud rumble, the artifact slithered into his body like a snake and coiled around his waist.
Gu Ling 'er's face reddened. "He's trying to assimilate the Dragon God's Whip and make it a part of his body!"
Su Yin's face turned bizarre. "But … the Dragon God's Whip is a whip, not a 'whip'. Is he serious?"
Was there something wrong with his head?
Hong long long!
It would take some time before the Dragon God's Whip would become a part of his body.
Feeling the surging energy gushing out of his dantian, Xue Qianqiu felt as if he had regained his masculine energy. He vented all of the resentment and hatred in his heart. "Cang Qiong, do you really think that I don't know what you're trying to do by nurturing me? You're trying to devour me at a crucial moment! Don't worry, I won't give you the chance to do so. I'll kill you first … and devour you first! "
If Su Yin could see that something was amiss with Cang Qiong, how could he not?
It was a pity that he had been the other party's pawn from the moment he was born. It was too difficult for him to break free.
Of course, there was still a chance.
Cang Qiong had made a grave mistake by leaving the Dragon God's Whip with him.
This artifact could communicate with the heavens of the Immortal World and deal with Su Yin. Naturally, it could be used against his teacher as well.
Su Yin and Gu Ling 'er glanced at one another with narrowed eyes.
Their teacher treated their disciple as a cauldron, devouring his disciple at a crucial moment. On the other hand, the disciple wanted to kill their teacher. This pair of teacher and disciple might seem like a benevolent teacher, but in the end, they were both harboring ulterior motives.
"And Su Yin, you're the one who humiliated me all my life! Don't worry, after I kill Cang Qiong, I'll kill you, drink your blood, and eat your flesh!"
Xue Qianqiu continued to roar.
As a genius, he had enjoyed all kinds of glory since he was born, as well as the pride of a superior. In the end, his glory and pride had been crushed by the young man, leaving nothing behind.
Thus, in terms of hatred, he hated that young man even more!
He hated that the other party was more talented than him, hated that the other party was luckier than him, hated that the other party had a healthy body, while he could only be a father-in-law!
Everyone else had a flourishing family, and every family had a strong man. Only he was illiterate …
I've had enough of this kind of life!
No, I'm going to start from scratch!
"…"
Su Yin was speechless. He did not think that he would be implicated even when he was hiding. Just as he was considering whether he should interrupt the other party's fantasies and shatter them, a calm voice sounded.
"It's a good wish, but … I've long seen through your betrayal!"
A figure slowly emerged from the void, and his eyes were cold.
"Teacher?"
Xue Qianqiu's eyes narrowed.
It was none other than Cang Qiong!
That fellow had actually come to the depths of the space vortex as well, and he was hiding not too far away from his disciple.
Cang Qiong's lips curled up in a faint smile. "It's hard for you to acknowledge me as your teacher. Even though I can't isolate the aura of the Sky Dome Realm after refining the Dragon God Whip, it's still easy for me to set up an isolated space. Unfortunately, you insisted on coming to the space vortex. At that moment, I knew that you had betrayed me! "
"I …" Xue Qianqiu's face paled.
Even though he wanted to kill the other party, he was well aware of his teacher's strength.
Even though he had improved significantly after refining the Dragon God Whip, it was still impossible for him to defeat or kill the other party.
"There's no need to address me as your teacher. I've raised you since you were young, so how could I not know what you're thinking? Since you want to kill me, there's no need to hide it. Make your move! "
Cang Qiong said expressionlessly.
Initially, he could still maintain the relationship between teacher and disciple. However, the moment he said those words, it was as good as tearing apart the veil. There was no need to continue hiding their relationship.
"Alright!"
Knowing that his teacher wanted to kill him as well, Xue Qianqiu understood that one of them had to die today. He no longer felt conflicted. Exhaling deeply, he looked at Cang Qiong and said, "Since we've already spoken, a battle is inevitable. I would like to know … whether I'm your son or not, and what role I play in your life!"
All along, Xue Qianqiu had respected his teacher, treating him as a father. He never expected things to develop to this point.
Cang Qiong replied indifferently, "My cultivation has improved greatly, allowing me to peer into the mysteries of the Heavenly Dao. Furthermore, I learned about the destruction of the Dragon Race. Naturally, I made some preparations in advance. You guessed right. Drifting Cloud, Lingxiao, Jade Lake, Yuluo, the Celestial Palace, Toad Osmanthus, Golden Crow … your senior brothers and senior sisters are all part of the Great Dao that I purposely split. Their purpose is the same as the nine sons of the dragon.
"What about me?" Xue Qianqiu asked through clenched teeth.
Although Xue Qianqiu had guessed it, hearing it personally still left him breathless and stifled.
His senior brothers and senior sisters treated him as their teacher, their closest kin. However, in Cang Qiong's eyes, they were nothing more than tools …
"You aren't a part of my Great Dao. Instead, I fused my essence blood and the essence blood of a Chaos Beast into a pregnant woman's body to give birth to you …"
Cang Qiong didn't hide the truth. His gaze was deep as he said, "After the Ancient Era, I gradually became the strongest expert in the world. I knew that the tallest tree in the forest would be destroyed by the wind. If I didn't make preparations in advance, I would definitely become a thorn in the side of the Heavenly Dao. Therefore, I split a part of my Great Dao and gave it to the human race …
"I have to say that the human race is indeed the favored child of the heavens. They are growing stronger and more prosperous. Therefore … I gathered their Great Dao and my own Great Dao and planned to forge you!
"Who would have thought that Yang Xuan and the others would notice it in advance and steal it away and hide it in the Dry Origin World!
"Their influence is too great, and they are the foundation of the human race's prosperity. If I tried to steal it, I would easily suffer a backlash from their Great Dao. It would be difficult for me to use it in the future. Therefore, I incited the Martial Saint and the others to oppose them. In the end, I sent your senior brothers and senior sisters and the Yellow Springs to kill them!
"Do you really think I don't know that their remnant wills have survived in the Dry Origin Realm? I'm just using them to consolidate my providence! "
"Later, I took their believers and conquered the Celestial Realm. Then, I used the giant demons to fight with them. In the end, I took back all of the stolen luck. So, I gathered all of that luck on that pregnant woman … and you were born!"
"I … gathered your essence blood, the essence blood of ancient beasts, and the providence of humans?"
Xue Qianqiu's body trembled in disbelief.
"Not bad!"
Cang Qiong nodded. "Haven't you noticed that ever since you were born, everything you do is smooth sailing? Even if you encounter danger, it's to prepare for an opportunity. Because you have gathered all the fortunes of the human race! "
Xue Qianqiu was speechless.
The other party was right. From the moment he was born, he was like the darling of the Celestial Realm. He became a True Immortal at the age of three, a Golden Immortal at the age of five, and a Grand Heavenly Immortal at the age of ten. At the age of twenty-three, he was already at the pinnacle of Demi-Sage, and had even comprehended the most difficult Great Dao of Time!
When he cultivated, he would occasionally encounter a bottleneck, and he would break through it the next day. When he encountered danger, it would turn into a great opportunity in the blink of an eye.
If Su Yin hadn't appeared out of nowhere and overshadowed his brilliance, he would have been the brightest young man in the world.
"No, if I've gathered all the fortunes of the human race, then what's going on with Su Yin? I'll always be at a disadvantage in front of him … "
Xue Qianqiu roared.
It wasn't that he didn't trust his teacher, but … if his teacher was really that lucky, why was he the one getting hurt every time?
Cang Qiong frowned in confusion. "I don't know what's going on with him. It's as if he doesn't belong to this world … I've made some calculations, and I've roughly figured it out. The Heavenly Dao is flawed. There are fifty numbers, but forty-nine of them are useful. One of them is missing, and he should be the missing one!
"He doesn't belong to the human race, the dragon race, or even the Celestial Realm! Even the Heavenly Dao can't control him. That's why you and he are Yin and Yang opposites. You're Yin, and he's Yang. As long as the two of you oppose each other, he'll be able to suppress you, and your luck will involuntarily transfer to him. "
"Yin?"
Xue Qianqiu's body swayed weakly. It might not have been true before, but it was really Yin now.
Su Yin's body jolted as well.
It turned out that so many things had happened in the ancient era.
It was fortunate that Yang Xuan and the others had noticed it in time. Otherwise, when the Five Decay of Heavens descended, Cang Qiong would have sacrificed all of humanity and transcended!
If he had really done so, the entire Celestial Realm would have been plunged into a bloodbath.
As for what Cang Qiong said about him not belonging to this world, as a transmigrator, that was indeed the case.
It was only at this moment that he came to a realization.
There was nothing wrong with Cang Qiong's actions. The only mistake lay in his appearance.
If not for his transmigration, unaffected by the rules of the Celestial Realm, the thirty-six Ancient Sages would never have been able to return to the Celestial Realm even after their fragmented wills had dissipated. Needless to say, it would have been impossible for mankind to triumph over the heavens and bring mankind back to its former glory.
With a top-notch expert like Cang Qiong around, this was destined to be a path of no return.
It was likely that the Martial Sages and Battle Sages had made the opposite decision after witnessing this sight.
So that was the case!
"How is it? Is there anything else that you don't know?"
Cang Qiong asked as he looked at Xue Qiong once more.
He cultivated the Great Path of Oblivion. Even though he was the one who had groomed Xue Qiong, he would not hesitate to kill the latter. He would not feel the slightest bit of guilt.
"I …"
Xue Qianqiu's body trembled.
Ever since he was born, due to his luck, he had always thought that he was in control of the heavens and not the heavens. As long as he persevered, even if he was humiliated a little, he would still have the last laugh and become the true winner.
It was only at this moment that he realized that he had been nothing more than a chess piece from the very start. The pride and hope in his heart had crumbled, and he could no longer hold on.
With his current strength, it was impossible for him to kill Cang Qiong, who was in control of his fate. However, he was unwilling to die so easily.
In an instant, he felt a little lost, not knowing what he should do.
"If you don't have any other questions, just obediently allow yourself to be devoured by me. Don't worry, I'll avenge you by killing Su Yin. At the very least, I won't let our relationship as master and disciple go to waste."
Cang Qiong placed his hands behind his back and spoke calmly.
Boom!
Before Xue Qiong could finish his words, Cang Qiong had already struck down with his palm.
As expected of a Creator-level expert, the overwhelming might of Cang Qiong's palm caused the spatial rifts in the dimension rift to converge together, forming a massive ravine.
Su Yin's concealed body was also affected by the might of the Great Path of Oblivion. It was fortunate that Xue Qiong had successfully achieved his Ascension to Godhood, allowing him to perfectly fuse his will with the world. Otherwise, he would have been exposed.
"You want to kill me? Not that easy!"
Seeing that the battle between master and disciple was about to come to an end, Xue Qianqiu roared furiously. The Dragon God Whip that he had forged pierced through the dimension rift, drawing in the aura of the Celestial World.
In an instant, ominous clouds gathered, and countless lightning bolts gathered together. It was as if a series of dominoes had been arranged, ready to topple over at any moment.
"Wretched disciple!"
Cang Qiong narrowed his eyes.
Given his level of cultivation, he would take the initiative to seal his cultivation so as to prevent the heavens from noticing his presence. Now that he was exposed, the might of the Five Decay of Heavens would descend upon him. If he did not transcend or come up with a solution, the Celestial World would not be able to contain him anymore.
"Hahaha, it's true that I am a wretched disciple for making a move on my master, but … when have you ever treated us as your disciples? All along, we have been nothing more than your tools! "
Xue Qianqiu roared with laughter.
At this point, there was nothing for him to hold back anymore. He had always treated the other party as his teacher, and it was only today that he saw the other party's true colors.
It was no wonder why the other party did not seem to mind at all when his senior brothers and sisters were killed. In a game of chess, who would care if their chess pieces were eaten?
As long as he could win, it did not matter how many chess pieces he sacrificed.
Boom boom boom!
The two experts clashed in the air.
While Xue Qianqiu's cultivation was slightly weaker, the might of the Dragon God Whip was extremely strong, and the heavens' punishment was ready to descend at any moment. For a moment, he and Cang Qiong were locked in a fierce battle.
The cracks in space extended for more than a million li, and the chaotic spiritual energy formed by the turbulence was forced to the side, unable to get close.
Cang Qiong was not in a hurry. He sent out palm strikes after palm strikes, and his clear voice sounded at the same time. "I refined the Yellow Springs into my clone and extracted the providence of the human race. I have already gathered the Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Human. I wanted to use you to cultivate the Dao of Time and transcend in one fell swoop … Alas, you have failed time and time again at the hands of Su Yin. Today, I will take back everything that I have imparted to you. I will let you know what it means to be a chess player and a chess piece! "
Cang Qiong opened his hand and grabbed at the air. The cracks in space were immediately pinched by his fingertips, and no matter how hard they struggled, they could not escape. The chaotic spiritual energy in the surroundings could not do anything to him either.
After fusing with the Yellow Springs, Cang Qiong's strength had not only reached the level of a creator, but he was also close to the level of a Primal Chaos Saint Body.
No wonder he did not care about the so-called Primal Chaos Beasts and could directly refine them.
"Explode!"
Seeing that his teacher was too powerful, Xue Qianqiu knew that if he did not detonate the lightning, he would not be able to hold on any longer. His eyes reddened, and he shouted again.
Turbulent energy rushed toward the dark clouds. Under the stimulation of a peak Divine Melder, the lightning could no longer hold back and turned into a lightning bolt that spanned tens of thousands of li and struck down.
Before it reached, the cracks also gathered together, forming a huge black hole. Wherever it went, all Dharma treasures and divine weapons turned into nothingness.
Even a creator would not be able to resist such power.
The four Primal Chaos Beasts of the past could not withstand the Dragon Emperor's attack and were killed because of this sudden attack.
Knowing that he was no match for it, Xue Qianqiu did not hesitate and used himself as bait to lure this thing down.
"All this time, you have been indecisive and worried too much. Now, you are half like me …" Cang Qiong chuckled.
"Regardless of friend or foe, it's best to strike first. Otherwise, it'll be too late by the time he makes a move. You have improved by forsaking yourself to attack me. Unfortunately, I'm sorry to tell you that this is the moment I've been waiting for! "
After saying those words, he flicked his finger.
Xue Qianqiu froze. He immediately felt a vast aura rise in his body, as if shrouding the entire space within. In a trance, the entire sky of the Celestial World appeared in his sight, and hell was also under his control. The strength of the human race and the incomparably glorious fortune all spread toward him.
His cultivation soared like a balloon. In the blink of an eye, he broke through the shackles of the Divine Melder realm and became a creator.
"Help me raise my strength?" Xue Qianqiu was stunned.
Didn't Cang Qiong want to kill him?
Why did Cang Qiong imbue him with energy to raise his cultivation?
More importantly …
Where did this energy come from? Why did it feel like it had been stored in his body all this time?
"No … This is a backup plan he left in my body. He's using me as a substitute to fight against the calamity of the world …"
Xue Qianqiu's face turned livid when he saw the black hole suddenly change direction and charge toward him.
Cang Qiong's goal wasn't to raise his cultivation but to replace him to be killed by the lightning tribulation.
This way, the heavens would naturally think that the Heaven Defying One was already dead, and he would be able to transcend or live for another fifty thousand years.
The principle behind this was somewhat similar to the nine sons of the Dragon Emperor.
Seeing this sight, Su Yin was rendered speechless.
All along, he had thought that the number one expert of the world was beneath the Dragon Emperor and the 36 Ancient Sages. In fact, the number one expert of the world had suffered so many losses in his hands. But in the end, it turned out that he was the one who had been hiding the most!
He had already set up a method to transcend. Over the past tens of thousands of years, he had gathered close to half of his cultivation into the fortune of the human race before silently infusing it into Xue Qianqiu's body.
As soon as the calamity reached its limit, it would explode.
Once it was blocked, it would be easy for him to retrieve it.
This way, he would be able to avoid the lightning tribulation perfectly. Even if he couldn't transcend, he would have an additional fifty thousand years to prepare.
How vicious!
Boom!
Harnessing the aura of the firmament, the black hole drawn by the Dragon God Whip came crashing down on Xue Qianqiu, crushing him to the ground. He tried to get up, but no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to do so.
Si la!
Cracks appeared on his body, as if he was a broken piece of porcelain.
Even though he was still alive, he had lost the ability to fight back.
This was probably the same for the Qiuniu, Yazi, Bi 'an, and the others. They had survived the calamity on behalf of the Dragon Emperor and eventually disappeared into the annals of history.
"I might not be able to withstand it, but I can stop it!"
Xue Qianqiu roared with reddened eyes.
He knew that he wouldn't be able to withstand the might of the lightning tribulation, but he was currently in the midst of space turbulence. As long as he could stop the Dragon God Whip from infusing him, he would still be able to turn the situation around.
Hula!
Under his control, the river formed by the Dragon God Whip swiftly shrank.
"Hehe, do you really think that I haven't tampered with a treasure like the Dragon God Whip after it has been in my possession for so long?"
The firmament flicked once more.
Huala!
The Dragon God Whip didn't heed Xue Qianqiu's words anymore. Instead, it began to expand rapidly. Not only did it draw in the lightning tribulation, but the aura of the Five Decay of Celestial Beings had also been triggered.
Just like primordial spiritual energy, the Dragon God Whip was able to sever the future. Be it cultivators, celestial beasts, or weapons, once they came into contact with it, they would lose their vitality and age uncontrollably. Their aura would wither, and they would only wait for death.
After taking a closer look, Su Yin finally came to a realization.
The Five Decay of Celestial Beings was a phenomenon where a world was already on the verge of collapsing. Any lifeform born within it would be corroded by the Five Decay of Celestial Beings.
"I-impossible! I have already tamed the Dragon God Whip! Why would it listen to your orders?"
Xue Qianqiu's face paled in disbelief.
He thought that he had the upper hand, but in the end, his actions were nothing more than a joke in the eyes of the other party.
Boom!
Under the effects of the Five Decay of Celestial Beings, Xue Qianqiu's already frail body aged at a rate visible to the naked eye. In just ten breaths, he looked like an old man in his seventies or eighties. His hair had turned white, and age spots had appeared on his face.
Just like when the River of Time was stolen, he had lost a significant portion of his vitality and lifespan.
Without the skin, where would the hair go?
The Celestial World was the skin, and the lifeforms born within it were the hair on it. If the skin had already aged, how could the hair be young?
"You have a trump card, but so do I. Refine and sacrifice!"
Knowing that he could die at any moment, Xue Qianqiu roared furiously.
Boom! Something seemed to have been sacrificed, and a powerful surge of vitality was born within his body. It actually managed to fend off the Five Decay of Celestial Beings for a short period of time.
"This is … sacrificing hundreds of millions of lifeforms?" Su Yin narrowed his eyes in astonishment.
He had seen such a sight when he revived the King of Beasts back then. It was clear that this was a sacrifice to delay the Five Decay of Celestial Beings.
As expected, this fellow was prepared for it!
Most likely, he had brought the lifeforms of the Golden Crow Sacred Ground here with him.
"To be able to kill so many lifeforms at once, you're already seventy percent as decisive as I am. It's a pity that it's still not enough …"
As expected, the Firmament raised his hand once more.
Under the enhancement of his strength, the Dragon God Whip grew thicker and thicker. The power of the heavens and the Five Decay of Celestial Beings of the Celestial World grew stronger and stronger. Xue Qianqiu's vitality, which had just recovered, was swiftly depleted under the pressure of the Firmament's aura.
"I can't accept this!"
Xue Qianqiu was filled with indignation.
He had always wanted to escape from the Firmament's control, but who could have thought that he would still fail in the end?
His teacher was simply too scheming. From the moment he was born, his destination had already been predetermined. He could only advance step by step along the predetermined path, unable to change it even at the moment of his death.
In an instant, he thought of Su Yin, the young man whom he could not hope to stand against.
As fellow teachers, thirty-six Ancient Sages were willing to sacrifice everything for him.
On the other hand, all he could think of was how to get rid of the other party!
The gap between them was simply too huge.
"Even if I die, I'll make sure that your wishful thinking fails …"
Knowing that he would not be able to escape anymore, Xue Qianqiu gave up on resisting. The energy in his body surged furiously, ready to combust at any moment.
If he could not withstand it, he would just have to commit suicide!
This way, the heavens would lose its target, and it would continue to attack Cang Qiong.
"Don't worry, I'll make a move the moment you self-detonate. This way, the heavens will think that I am the one who killed you. Not only will it not kill me, it will even think that I have killed a malignant tumor and reward me …" Cang Qiong sneered.
Xue Qianqiu's body turned cold.
Everything was going according to the other party's plan. At this moment, he was truly in a dilemma.
…
"What should we do?"
Gu Ling 'er frowned. "Once Xue Qianqiu is killed, Cang Qiong will be able to escape the detection of the heavens. Even if he hasn't transcended, he should be close to it. Given his cultivation and the Primal Chaos Saint Constitution, we won't be a match for him anymore!"
Not only was Cang Qiong's cultivation powerful, he was also a schemer.
If he were to watch Xue Qianqiu die, it would mean that Cang Qiong had escaped the pursuit of the heavens and gained another fifty thousand years of lifespan. By then, neither he nor the Dragon Emperor would be a match for Cang Qiong.
"Even if we can't kill Cang Qiong, we should at least expose him to the heavens …" Su Yin said with a glint in his eyes.
Gu Ling 'er nodded in agreement. "Alright!"
"Let's do it!"
Seeing that Cang Qiong was controlling the Dragon God Whip to continue attracting lightning from the world of immortals, Su Yin suddenly emerged from the depths of the void. As soon as he appeared, the most turbulent power surged out.
Xiao Wu, Dahei, The Great Demon …
Sky-Piercing Pillar, Nine Firmaments Spirit Tower, Vast Origin Cauldron, Banner of War …
River of Time, Great Dao of Life and Death, Human Emperor, Heavenly Emperor, Earthly Emperor …
He unleashed all the power he could.
Gu Ling 'er also unleashed her strongest attack.
The two experts launched a sneak attack at the same time in less than a ten-thousandth of a breath. Cang Qiong didn't expect there to be two such experts hiding nearby.
"Su Yin …"
Without the calmness from before, Firmament gave up control of the Dragon God's Whip and attacked the young man.
The cultivation of a creator was indeed powerful. His full-strength punch was no weaker than Su Yin's. The void exploded one after another, and beams of green light swept over.
Within the light, countless Great Daos were born and retreated at every instant. Su Yin's full-powered attack was actually unable to withstand it.
"A creator … is that powerful?" Su Yin felt a chill in his heart.
He had long guessed that Cang Qiong's cultivation was much stronger than his, but he didn't expect it to be so much stronger. Even with all his treasures, great daos, and pets, he still couldn't withstand it.
However, although the sneak attack didn't succeed, it did succeed in blocking his control of the Dragon God Whip.
Whoosh!
The treasure returned to Xue Qianqiu's control and blocked the lightning from the world of immortals.
However, the lightning he had just summoned had already traversed tens of millions of kilometers, and the spatial turbulence had been suppressed and stabilized. It was as if a Creator-level expert had appeared in the sky, ready to unleash an unimaginable attack at any moment.
"Haha, it's too late. He's dead for sure. Once he's dead, I'll be able to gather all the power and transcend. What do you have to compete with me then?"
Cang Qiong laughed loudly.
The Dragon God Whip had gathered nearly half of the heavenly power of the world of immortals. Even if Xue Qianqiu was at his peak, he wouldn't be able to withstand it, let alone the current him. In other words … it was almost impossible for him to survive.
"You haven't transcended yet, have you?"
With a low roar, Su Yin punched out with his fist.
Cang Qiong's cultivation was higher than his, but he had already transcended, and the Gan Origin World was unparalleled. The wind from the punch was mixed with the power of Dijiang and the Iron-Eating Beast. The cracks in the void grew larger and larger.
"If I transcend, you'll be the first to die!"
Cang Qiong's expression turned serious when he saw the young man's cultivation.
He'd always treated the young man as a tool to stimulate Xue Qianqiu's growth. Who would've thought that the young man would grow to a level that even he couldn't contend with in the blink of an eye?
The power of the 33 Heavens, the 18 Hells, and all sorts of other powers transformed into stars that spun in the sky. Beams of green light converged like blooming lotuses. Layer after layer, they sealed the chaotic streams of space, making it so that they no longer trembled.
He had also mastered the power of time. If the Dragon Emperor had mastered the ancient past, then he had mastered the present.
No matter how vast the past was, it was only history. No matter how glorious the future was, it hadn't happened yet. The present was king, and it was an existence that could crush everything.
Gu Ling 'er's pupils shrank.
She realized that the young man in front of her was even more terrifying than the Dragon Emperor at his peak. Even if the four chaos beasts were still alive, they might not be a match for him!
It was no wonder why he had been able to dominate the world since the Ancient Era. With his cultivation, he was indeed qualified to be proud of himself.
Unlike the girl's reverence, when Su Yin saw that the other party was in control of the present, he came to a realization. "Time is vast, and no one can always control power, and no one can always prosper. I saw you build a tall building, I saw you entertain guests, and I saw you collapse … In the past, Wang Xie Tang flew into the homes of ordinary people!"
The river of time had flowed furiously for a hundred thousand years, surging toward the horizon without the slightest pause.
Time was constantly moving forward. In every era, there would be outstanding figures who would dominate the era. However, the surging waters of the river would wash away all heroes. There was no one who could remain powerful forever.
Were the four chaos beasts not powerful?
Was the Dragon Emperor not powerful?
Were the Martial Sages and Battle Sages of mankind not able to rule for tens of thousands of years?
Were the thirty-six Ancient Sages unable to stand against him?
Mastering the present might sound powerful, but it was only a matter of time. Once he missed this opportunity, he would be weakened.
Hu!
Standing in the future, Su Yin punched out again and again, his power swirling around him like a millstone.
"The past is unpredictable, and the future isn't something to be envied. After refining the Yellow Springs and mastering the Firmament, I'm still the strongest existence in the world. Unless … you have transcended. Otherwise, as long as the Celestial World still exists, you won't be a match for me!"
Firmament harrumphed coldly as green light surged toward Zhang Xuan.
The past and future in the river of time were shrouded by the green light, and they morphed into powerful figures. Every single one of them grasped the present and fought with Su Yin.
The past of tens of thousands of years and the future of innumerable years might be unpredictable to you, but it could also be the present of others.
Firmament had actually comprehended the Dao of Time to such a level, surpassing even the Great Beast King!
Struck by the countless figures of the present, Su Yin was forced to retreat.
Even though he was no longer bound by the laws of time, he was still slightly lacking compared to Firmament.
"Something's not right …"
Gu Ling'er was anxious. She wanted to rush forward to help Zhang Xuan, but she suddenly noticed that something was amiss and stopped.
Firmament had grasped the present and every important point in time since the Primordial Era. Logically speaking, he should have become the strongest existence in the Celestial World by now. However … Su Yin had already transcended!
He was no longer under the control of the Celestial World. In other words, no matter how strong Firmament was, he was only at the level of the Celestial World. It should be easy for him to escape if he couldn't defeat Zhang Xuan.
However, instead of running away, Zhang Xuan was fighting with his full strength. Clearly, something was amiss.
"He's forcing Firmament to unleash his full strength so that he can draw the power of the heavens over!"
Gu Ling'er quickly understood what was going on.
How could Firmament, who was fighting with Su Yin, possibly understand what she was trying to do? After a few more punches, Su Yin was forced to retreat once more.
"Do you think that I'll be able to draw down a calamity just by using my full strength? Hahaha, you're too naive. In the eyes of the heavens, I'm just Xue Qianqiu's clone. The stronger I am, the more it wants to kill me! You won't be able to save him by doing this. On the contrary, you'll only hasten his death! "
"This …"
Su Yin's expression darkened. He hurriedly turned his head and saw that the lightning above Xue Qianqiu was surging even more ferociously.
Eunuch Xue had used some unknown method to give off a powerful aura that covered the entire Immortal Realm. Compared to it, Firmament, who was fighting with Ye Xiwen, was as insignificant as a clone.
"It's … the primordial divine beast, Xi Shu!"
Gu Ling'er's pupils constricted. She couldn't help but exclaim as she recalled something.
"Xi Shu?" Su Yin didn't understand.
Gu Ling'er nodded. "It's a divine beast from the same era as the Dragon Emperor. It's not very strong, with the strongest being only at the realm master realm. It's a far cry from the Realm Melder realm, let alone a creator. However, it has a powerful ability that even creators are wary of, and that's … imitation!"
"Imitation?" Su Yin asked.
"That's right!" Gu Ling'er said. "It's said that when Xi Shu eats a cultivator's fingernail, it will become identical to the nail's owner. Not only will it look the same, but it will also have the same memories. Even its closest kin won't be able to recognize it. If my guess is correct, Xue Qianqiu was transformed from Firmament's fingernail after Xi Shu devoured it! Once its power is activated, even the heavenly dao won't be able to tell. It might even think that he's the true body … "
"This …" Su Yin shuddered.
As expected of an old fellow who'd lived for tens of thousands of years. His methods were heaven-defying in order to survive.
He'd thought that he could hide from the heavenly dao with the taiji diagram. Who else could it be but himself? After all this fuss, it turned out that these true powerhouses weren't simple either.
At the very least, he'd never heard of Xi Shu.
"As expected of someone with the bloodline of a chaos ancient beast. You're so knowledgeable that you even know about a lifeform like Xi Shu …"
Firmament smiled faintly as he overheard their conversation.
Just as the girl had said, he'd borrowed Xi Shu's power.
In the eyes of the heavenly dao, Xue Qianqiu was his true body, while he himself was a tiny clone that would vanish once his true body died.
"Amazing!"
Hearing Firmament's acknowledgement, Su Yin remarked in awe.
In order to transcend, these experts had really gone all out.
The Dragon Monarch had given birth to offspring with cows, fishes, jackals, and birds, imparting his teachings to them and dying in his stead. At the same time, he had hidden his true body behind the Divine Beast Diagram in the future …
Firmament had assimilated the Yellow Springs and forged him into his clone, and Xue Qianqiu had become his true body to die in his stead … Even though Zhang Xuan had seen it with his own eyes, he still found it hard to believe.
Boom boom boom!
Sensing Xue Qianqiu's growing strength, the heavenly dao couldn't hold itself back any longer. It gathered its strength and crushed it down.
"AHHH!"
Veins popped out from Xue Qianqiu's head, and his eyes reddened. He wanted to retaliate, but he felt powerless, as if he would collapse at any moment.
Even though he possessed Firmament's aura, he didn't possess Firmament's strength!
He was nothing more than an empty shell!
Besides, even if he possessed Firmament's strength, he wouldn't have been able to withstand such a powerful calamity.
Otherwise, the heavenly dao wouldn't have gone through so much trouble to create such a situation.
Raising his head to look at the calamity that was about to descend, Xue Qianqiu knew that he would not be able to escape this calamity. Suddenly, he clenched his teeth and roared, "I'm not willing to accept this! Su Yin, I'm willing to give you all of my cultivation to refine.
Boom!
Right after saying those words, Xue Qianqiu's body abruptly burst forth. His strength had already reached the level of a Creator, and he charged straight for Su Yin.
Not expecting Xue Qianqiu to be so decisive, Su Yin was stunned for a moment. However, he soon came to a realization, and his complexion turned awful.
Xue Qianqiu wasn't giving his cultivation to him out of conscience but … an open scheme!
If he were to be greedy and assimilate Xue Qianqiu's strength, it would be equivalent to accepting Xi Shu's teachings and becoming Firmament's' true body '.
If he couldn't withstand the calamity, Xue Qianqiu would be able to exact his vengeance.
If he could withstand the calamity, regardless of whether he killed Firmament or Firmament killed him, it wouldn't be a loss for him! In any case, they were both enemies …
To be able to get two enemies to kill one another before his death … At least, he had gotten what he wanted.
"To be able to make such a decision before my death, I'm already a hundred percent as vicious as I am!"
Firmament knew what Xue Qianqiu was thinking, but he didn't stop him. Instead, he turned to the young man and said with a smile, "Su Yin, my disciple's body contains half of my strength. Do you dare to accept it?"
In his view, if the young man before him didn't accept his strength, he wouldn't be a match for him. If he accepted it, he would become his' true body ', and he would be able to withstand the calamity for him.
"Hahaha, only a fool would refuse to accept my strength!"
Knowing what Xue Qianqiu was thinking, Su Yin burst into laughter as he released the power of a dimension.
Hula!
The energy generated by Xue Qianqiu's self-detonation was immediately shrouded by him, including the Dragon God Whip.
Xue Qianqiu's scheme wasn't false. After absorbing this strength, it was the same as becoming Firmament. But whether it was the real Firmament or Xue Qianqiu, neither of them could have imagined that Su Yin had already Transcended!
In other words … he was no longer under the influence of the Immortal World's Heavenly Dao.
Therefore, a Creator who had committed suicide and willingly allowed him to refine him was exactly what he wanted!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boundless energy entered his body, and Su Yin's aura, which was already at the peak of the Divine Fusion Realm, immediately grew stronger. In an instant, he gained a certain level of understanding of the Creator Realm. Countless great daos flashed in his mind.
Xue Qianqiu himself hadn't reached the Creator Realm, but Firmament had.
In order to make Firmament more like himself, Xue Qianqiu had secretly copied his comprehension into the depths of Firmament's consciousness through Xi Shu's ability. Now that it was being refined by Su Yin, it was equivalent to him accepting all of Firmament's thoughts and understanding of the great dao.
In the blink of an eye, his cultivation had broken through the shackles of the Realm Fusion Realm, and he was advancing toward the Creator Realm!
"So this is what it means to be a Creator …"
Realization dawned in his mind.
The endless principles of the world flowed into his mind, forming a brand new great dao.
Amidst the rumbling of the Dry Origin World, Zhujian, Luo, Qinyuan, Ying Zhao, Wu Zhiqi … all the divine beasts that the Dragon Emperor had slain were reborn. Countless rare herbs were also born from nothingness, exuding rich fragrances.
These herbs didn't belong to any that he knew of in the past. They had never existed in the Immortal World before, and they were created just like that.
Some precious herbs from his previous life also suddenly appeared.
Caterpillar fungus, lingzhi, ginseng …
He immersed his consciousness in the Dry Origin World, sensing the rapid increase in his strength.
A bamboo forest rose from the ground, and divine beasts with black and white stripes appeared before his eyes.
"This isn't the chaos, so there's no need for such strong defenses and strength. I'll just live by acting cute …"
The Iron-Eating Beast was also recreated, but its original strength was gone.
With a thought, all things were born. With a word, the laws of nature changed.
This was Creator!
The pinnacle of the Immortal World.
"Hehe!"
Cang Qiong didn't stop him from absorbing Xue Qianqiu's energy. Instead, he smiled playfully. "Humans reproduce quickly, have strong comprehension, and are talented. It's only a matter of time before they become the overlord of a world. Unfortunately, their weakness is also very obvious, and that is … greed! You know that you'll be replaced by the Heavenly Dao if you devour this energy, but you still insist on doing it. You're hopeless!
"Forget it, I'll send you on your way!"
He shook his head and flicked his finger.
Boom!
The lightning bolt, which had already accumulated a huge amount of energy, became even bigger. The surging energy kept circling within it. Accompanied by an explosion that tore through the air, it tore through the void and slashed over.
This attack contained all the power of the Heavenly Dao of the Immortal World. Even he would be severely injured if he took it head-on.
The young man had just broken through to the Creator Realm, and he had suddenly merged with such a huge amount of energy. The Primal Chaos Realm was in a precarious state, and he would die without a doubt!
Hu!
Violent lightning struck down. Time and space were torn apart layer by layer. The cracks created by the primal chaos spiritual qi were filled up by the huge energy torrent. The so-called World Lord Tribulation and World Fusion Tribulation were nothing in front of this power. They weren't even worth mentioning.
The Five Decay of the Celestial Being, the power of destruction, and the energy of destruction were all concentrated within the lightning. Even Creators would age instantly before their lifespan was depleted.
In less than a ten-thousandth of a breath's time, Su Yin's thin figure was completely swallowed by this wave.
"I'm dead now … I've finally escaped the Five Decay of the Celestial Being. I can transcend in peace now!"
Cang Qiong heaved a sigh of relief.
The fact that the Heavenly Dao's energy was pouring down meant that he was already 'dead' in its eyes. The Five Decay of the Celestial Being couldn't do anything to him anymore.
The lightning had solved his problem and killed this young man with limitless potential. It was killing two birds with one stone!
As long as he could find the Dragon Emperor and Crown Prince Xiao Shi and kill them, he would be able to fuse the Primordial Era, the Antiquity Era, and the present. Transcendence wouldn't be a problem anymore.
Who cared about the Myriad Races? Who cared about the nobles? Who cared about the geniuses? In the end, he was still the one who had the last laugh.
Shaking his head, Firmament was just about to collect and refine Su Yin's corpse to strengthen himself when he suddenly saw the lightning bolts darting around furiously, fleeing desperately in the direction of the Celestial World.
It was as if it was afraid that someone would catch up to it.
Just as Firmament was perplexed, a voice suddenly sounded. "Don't run! I haven't eaten enough yet!"
Narrowing his eyes, Firmament hurriedly turned his gaze in the direction of the voice, only to see the young man who was bound to die standing in midair. He was holding onto a thick lightning bolt with both of his hands, holding onto it with all his might. On the other hand, the lightning bolt was like a startled dragon, struggling frantically. Despair could be seen in its eyes.
Kacha! Kacha!
Despair could be seen amidst the dull lightning bolts.
"Be good, I don't mean any harm. Just a bite, just a bite …"
The young man chuckled softly as he opened his mouth.
Hu!
The lightning bolt was swallowed into his mouth, and it disappeared from his sight.
Kacha! Kacha!
As for the remaining lightning bolts, they were like resentful little wives. How would they dare to stay for even half a step? With a "whoosh!", they all fled, not even a single strand of hair could be found.
"What a pity …"
The young man sighed deeply as he turned to Firmament and said, "Firmament, I'll have to trouble you to draw the heavens of the Celestial World over …"
“？？？”
Firmament's body stiffened, and a chill ran down his spine.
Can someone tell me what the f * ck happened?
That was a lightning bolt from the heavens of the Celestial World! Any lifeform that came into contact with it would be unable to withstand it, and they would be reduced to dregs …
Yet, not only was the young man completely fine, he even managed to scare it away …
"No, that's not right. Have you transcended?"
Firmament narrowed his eyes as a thought surfaced in his mind, and he clenched his fists tightly.
To be able to devour the punishment of the heavens and scare it away, there was only one possibility, and that was that … the young man before him was not a Creator but a Transcendent!
A Transcendent cultivator possessed the strength and standing to stand on equal footing with the Celestial World. Putting aside the fact that the heavens could not do anything to them, if they dared to cause trouble for them, they might even be forcefully pulled into their world and turned into nourishment.
"Thank you for your help, master and disciple. I'm feeling great right now, so I'll kill you to repay you …"
Su Yin didn't deny it. He laughed heartily, raised his fist, and charged at Bai Yunfei.
Assimilating Xue Qianqiu was equivalent to assimilating half of Firmament's cultivation, as well as the providence that the humans and Giant Demons had gathered over tens of thousands of years. At this moment, not only had he become a Creator, he had also reached an extremely profound level.
As powerful as the lightning bolts of the heavens were, they were nothing to him.
Firmament hurriedly charged forward, only to feel a powerful force crushing down on him. His arm was shattered, and a huge hole was blasted in his chest.
Even with his cultivation, he was unable to put up any resistance at all!
"Let's go!"
Knowing that he would be pummeled to death if he continued staying here, he dared not waste any time. Thus, his figure blurred into a blur as he dashed straight for the Celestial World.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Su Yin harrumphed coldly as he launched another punch at Firmament.
The world shattered, and the void collapsed. Firmament's fleeing figure was struck squarely on the spot, causing his back to explode. Fresh blood splattered all over the place.
"You want to kill me? It won't be that easy!"
Knowing that he would surely die if he continued fighting, Firmament roared furiously as he raised his hand.
Huala!
Countless artifacts flew out like a storm, and before they could even reach Firmament, they all exploded simultaneously.
After dominating the Celestial World for fifty thousand years, Firmament had collected innumerable treasures. In order to preserve his life, he had no choice but to detonate all of them.
Hula!
In an instant, the tear in the void expanded to several million li wide. It was as if a black curtain had shrouded Firmament's vision. Firmament made use of this opportunity to turn into a streak of green light and vanish from sight. It was hard to tell which dimension he was hiding in.
Su Yin chased after him, and his divine sense spread out like mercury. The entire Immortal Realm, including the void turbulence and the Carefree Galaxy, was enveloped in his divine sense. Every inch of space was examined, but he found nothing. It was as if this guy had disappeared into thin air, and there was no trace of him.
"As expected of a spirit born from the void. If he were to hide, even I would find it hard to notice him …" Zhang Xuan muttered under his breath.
After searching for a while, Su Yin couldn't find anything. He shook his head.
"What do we do then? Are we just going to let that fellow get away? "Gu Ling'er frowned.
It had not been easy for them to severely injure Firmament's Spiritual Perception. It would be a huge loss if they were to allow the other party to escape.
"It's fine. If everything goes according to plan, that fellow will surely head to the Primal Chaos and wait for him in Northern Yuan.
Su Yin chuckled softly.
After breaking through to the Creation realm, he could sense everything. The Heavenly Secrets Great Dao had become more powerful, and he had the ability to predict the future.
Gu Ling'er was puzzled. "Northern Yuan?"
Su Yin nodded. "He knows that I've transcended, so he must know that ordinary Creators are no match for me. If he wants to kill me, he has to attain the Primal Chaos Sacred Body, and to do that, he has to enter the Primal Chaos … There's no other choice! Therefore, if everything goes according to plan, he will definitely join forces with the Dragon Emperor to reopen the Divine Beast Diagram. "
Gu Ling'er was enlightened. She looked at the young man in front of her again with admiration.
No wonder she found it strange. With his cultivation, how could he let Firmament escape? After all, he was fishing!
Firmament knew that he was being baited, but there was nothing he could do.
Only by attaining the Primal Chaos Sacred Body could he find a way to transcend. Otherwise, no matter where he hid, he would be discovered and killed by the young man!
"Let me consolidate my cultivation before we set off!"
After explaining, Su Yin didn't say anything else. He closed his eyes and immersed his mind in the Dry Origin World again.
After devouring Xue Qianqiu, the size of the world increased by another hundred million miles, reaching four hundred million miles. The Dragon God's Whip was connected to the Celestial World, constantly devouring its spiritual energy to maintain the balance of the world.
At this time, the Dry Origin World, the Celestial World, the Mortal World, and the Infernal World were operating quietly. The 36 ancient gods were performing their duties, and it was a scene of prosperity.
After becoming a Creator, he understood that the most important thing for a world to become more stable was balance.
For example, heaven-defying herbs could be found, but they could only save lives and extend lifespans. They couldn't revive the dead or regrow flesh and bones. Otherwise, the rules would be broken, leading to chaos.
Just like the laws in the mortal world, if a prince broke the law, the commoners would be punished the same. If there were different rules, there would definitely be loopholes. In the end, the laws would lose their credibility.
"No wonder it was so difficult for me to cultivate … So that's why!"
Su Yin sighed as he recalled his arduous cultivation after coming out of the forbidden land.
It wasn't because he was special that he could reach his current cultivation so quickly. Instead, it was because he worked tirelessly for thirteen days and nights to achieve his current glory.
This … was a kind of balance!
Looking down at the Infernal World, Xiao Chen saw that there were already souls entering the Infernal World, starting a new cycle of reincarnation.
"Reward the good and punish the evil. If you do good in life, you can be reincarnated into a good family and enjoy good karma. If you do evil in life, you will be sent to the eighteenth level of the Infernal World, suffer for a hundred years, and reincarnate as a beast … "
With a thought, the order of the Infernal World started operating. The newly born Xiezhi Beast sat in the Yama Palace, controlling the Book of Life and Death.
In the Mortal World:
The cultivators in the Sky Dome Realm who believed in the Sky Dome Realm were gradually assimilated by more people. Occasionally, Su Yin would kill the troublemakers with his great magic power and turn them into nourishment for the other cultivators.
Shi Sheng's teachings spread throughout the world. Everyone had enough resources and strength to cultivate. The human race became stronger.
"The Dragon Race, the Phoenix Race, the Qilin, the Black Tortoise … let's make them the Four Great Spiritual Beasts of the Mortal World!"
If the human race was left alone, there would definitely be problems or even internal strife. With the Four Great Spiritual Beasts restricting them, the human race would definitely develop better.
After that, Su Yin made many preparations to stabilize the human race and allow them to develop better. Only then did Su Yin come to the Deity Realm.
Thirty-six teachers sat quietly in the Thirty-Three Skies, controlling the thirty-six laws of the world and ruling over everything.
Seeing that they already had their new responsibilities, Su Yin did not say anything else. Just as he was about to leave the Dry Origin World, he heard a voice.
"Little Su Yin …"
With a thought, Su Yin appeared before his teacher, Yang Xuan, and bowed with cupped fists.
Although the thirty-six teachers were no longer a match for him, and Yang Xuan was the one who conferred them the title of God, as his teacher, Yang Xuan still treated them with respect and reverence.
"Now that you have transcended and reconstructed a new world, as long as we continue to develop, the human race will only prosper. I feel that … there is no point for me to continue staying here!"
Yang Xuan stroked his beard and chuckled softly.
"Teacher, you are leaving?" Su Yin was taken aback.
Even though he knew that Yang Xuan was not a native of the Celestial World, he had still stayed here for several dozen millenniums. He could not help but be surprised that the other party was actually intending to leave.
"Un." Yang Xuan nodded. "I would like to return to the Master Teacher World to take a look. Furthermore, in the instant that you ascended to Godhood, I seem to have heard the summons of that senior of yours …"
"Senior?" Su Yin asked curiously. "Are you talking about that Senior Zhang?"
Back when he was searching for the Heaven Measuring Ruler, Yang Xuan had mentioned that he had a senior who wielded the heavens and could easily crush Sages. It was a pity that he had never met that senior before.
"Cough cough. Actually, you can call him Senior Uncle. He pretended to be my disciple at the start, but later on … he became my junior!"
Yang Xuan said.
"…" Su Yin was rendered speechless.
Pretended to be his disciple and became his junior? What the heck was going on?
It was clear that this Senior Zhang was not a reliable person.
Oblivious to Zhang Xuan's thoughts, Yang Xuan said, "I was unable to contact him in the past due to the barrier between the Celestial World and the Primordial Chaos. I'll try contacting him once I reach the Primordial Chaos and have him fetch me. I'll let them know that I, Yang Xuan, am not bragging! "
Su Yin said with a bitter smile.
The other thirty-five Ancient Sages had mocked his teacher the moment he said that he had a powerful disciple. To be honest, Zhang Xuan did not really believe it either. Since that was the case, he would just have to see if he could summon that powerful disciple over!
After chatting with his teacher, Su Yin felt that his cultivation had stabilized. Thus, he brought Gu Ling'er with him and rushed toward the Northern Plains.
With his cultivation, there was no longer any secret in the Celestial World. He could enter and leave as he pleased.
…
In a certain location in the Celestial World …
Space trembled, and two massive dragon silhouettes flew out from the void.
The Dragon Emperor and Crown Prince Xiao Shi!
The Dragon Emperor's cultivation had reached an unfathomable level. The Beast Court had fused perfectly with his physical body, causing him to emanate a dazzling golden glow. His every movement caused space to collapse and time to reverse.
It was unknown what kind of fortuitous encounter the Xiao Shi Crown Prince had, but he had reached the level of a Creator as well. Compared to Xue Qianqiu, he was only stronger.
"Father, what should we do now?"
Floating in the air, Crown Prince Xiao Shi turned his gaze over.
"Enter the Primordial Chaos and cultivate the Primordial Chaos Saint Body. Only then will we have a chance to transcend!" the Dragon Emperor replied.
The Xiao Shi Crown Prince nodded. Just as he was about to look in the direction of the Northern Plains, a hearty laughter sounded.
"Dragon Emperor, how have you been?"
Hu!
Space trembled, and Cang Qiong's figure appeared before him.
He no longer looked as wretched as he did when he was chased by Su Yin. His injuries were also completely healed.
"You still dare to appear here …"
The Xiao Shi Crown Prince narrowed his eyes, and his aura suddenly burst forth. It was filled with killing intent.
In the final battlefield, this fellow had grabbed his neck and almost killed him. In the end, he had even snatched away the Dragon God's Whip. He would never forget this grudge even if he turned into ashes.
"Crown Prince, please calm down … I'm not here to fight the two of you, but to form an alliance with you!" Cang Qiong said calmly.
"Alliance? Dream on! "The energy in Crown Prince Xiao Shi's body suddenly burst forth. With a dragon roar, he clawed at Zhang Xuan.
After reaching the level of a Creator, his strength was equally terrifying. With a claw, millions of miles of space froze into ice. It was enough to trap any life within.
The Xiao Shi Crown Prince had stood out in the primordial era and become the only successor of the Dragon Emperor. Naturally, he had unparalleled talent. Although he had just broken through, his combat strength was no weaker than Cang Qiong's.
Cang Qiong dodged the Xiao Shi Crown Prince's attack in a flash, and his hearty voice sounded. "Let me finish speaking first. It won't be too late to make a move! Don't the two of you want to transcend? "
"We don't need you to tell us if we want to transcend or not …" The Xiao Shi Crown Prince kept attacking, but Cang Qiong blocked all of his attacks.
"Enough!"
Knowing his son's strength, he knew that he would not be able to do anything to Cang Qiong within a short period of time. Rather than embarrass himself, he might as well let the matter rest. The Dragon Emperor looked at Cang Qiong coldly and said, "What do you intend to do? Speak your mind. Otherwise, the two of us won't mind working together to kill you!"
He did not have a good impression of Cang Qiong either.
"Let me finish my words first. You'll change your mind eventually!"
Cang Qiong chuckled softly. "However, before I reveal my intentions, I would like to ask the Dragon Emperor … Do you know how I can transcend?"
The Dragon Emperor narrowed his eyes as killing intent flashed across his eyes.
To him, transcendence was his greatest secret. He had not told his son and the Great Beast King about it, so naturally, he would not tell anyone else about it.
Cang Qiong continued, "If I'm not mistaken, you intend to enter the Primordial Chaos to temper your Primordial Chaos Saint Constitution, right? In your opinion, a Creator with such a powerful physical body should be able to withstand the might of the heavens and transcend … "
"Humph!"
The Dragon Emperor did not deny or admit to it.
That was indeed what he was thinking.
The Primordial Chaos Saint Constitution was similar to the Pixiu and the other ancient beasts. It was a fearless existence in the Primordial Chaos. A Creator was the pinnacle of cultivation in the Celestial World.
Seeing that the Dragon Emperor was silent, Cang Qiong knew that he had guessed correctly. So, he asked, "Do you think that this method will work?"
"Why not?" The Dragon Emperor's eyes glinted.
Since the ancient times, there had never been a Transcendent Realm expert. Thus, he was not sure if it would work. It was just a guess.
Cang Qiong chuckled. "What if I say that this method is wrong, and that someone has already transcended in the Celestial World?"
"Someone has already transcended?" The Dragon Emperor and Crown Prince Xiao Shi looked at one another in disbelief.
"It's true. That person hasn't even achieved the Primordial Chaos Saint Constitution, and he isn't even a Creator yet. Yet, he has already broken free from the grasp of the heavens and become a Transcendent Realm expert!"
Cang Qiong flicked his finger, and a screen appeared before the two of them. Then, the image of a young man hugging a lightning dragon and devouring it appeared.
"This …"
The Dragon Emperor's body trembled.
At his level of cultivation, he could naturally see the fear in the lightning before him. For the heavens to become like this … there was only one possibility, and that was to transcend!
"That fellow has already reached this step?" The Crown Prince Xiao Shi was in disbelief.
When he had just awakened two days ago, he had chased after Xue Qianqiu to the point where his life was no longer in his control. In the end, he had even detonated Xue Qianqiu's treasure to escape. In just two days, he had already transcended …
Even if they saw it with their own eyes, they still couldn't believe it!
This was something that their father couldn't achieve even after spending a hundred thousand years.
Cang Qiong's eyes glinted. "That's right. Even without reaching the Creator Realm and achieving the Primordial Chaos Saint Constitution, he was able to transcend. This means that the method to transcend isn't what we think it is … In other words, he has grasped the true method to transcend. If we can kill him and obtain the secret art, the three of us will have a chance!"
"This …" The Dragon Emperor narrowed his eyes.
Although it was only a screen that recorded the scene, he believed that it was real.
Otherwise, the strongest person in the world wouldn't have come to him for an alliance.
After a moment of silence, the Dragon Emperor asked, "How do we cooperate?"
Knowing that the other party was wavering, Cang Qiong heaved a sigh of relief. "Simple. Bring me into the Primordial Chaos Saint Constitution. Once you succeed, the three of us will work together to kill Su Yin and force him to reveal the method to transcend. Before we succeed, none of us can go back on our words. Otherwise, we'll die under the lightning and never be able to reincarnate. "
Seeing that Cang Qiong had made such a sincere vow, the Dragon Emperor hesitated for a moment before nodding his head. "Alright!"
If the video was real, that young man was already stronger than him. Coupled with his heaven-defying luck, it was impossible for him and the Crown Prince Xiao Shi to kill him.
With the addition of Cang Qiong, their chances of success would be higher.
Of course, it was just an alliance. After killing Su Yin, it wouldn't be too late for them to make a move if the other party dared to harbor any other thoughts.
"Let's go!"
After coming to an agreement, the man and the two dragons tore open a spatial rift and flew toward Northern Plains.
Tomorrow was the grand finale!
