Chapter 40

Suddenly, a childish voice rang in his ear: "Daddy, I'm hungry."

Tang Yun looked in the direction of the voice and saw a five or six-year-old boy standing beside him. The little boy had silver-white hair, a pair of golden eyes, and exquisite features as perfect as if carved.

"You are... the Holy Son?" Tang Yun's heart stirred.

The little boy nodded and said in a milky voice: "Daddy, I want to eat candy."

Before Tang Yun could answer, a piercing alarm suddenly rang out.

"Warning! Unknown alien fleet detected invading!" a mechanical voice rang in Tang Yun's mind.

Immediately after, countless oddly shaped warships poured out of the black hole, surrounding Tang Yun.

"Earthling, hand over the Holy Son, and we might consider sparing your life!" a cold voice came from the flagship.

Tang Yun's expression sank; he knew this battle was unavoidable.

"If you want to touch my son, ask my sword first!" Tang Yun snorted coldly, and a black long sword appeared in his hand.

This was the Taixu Slaying Fate Sword; at this moment, it perfectly fused with the Chaos Medical Qi in Tang Yun's body, turning into a giant sword exuding a chaotic aura—Chaos Slaying!

Tang Yun activated the ultimate "Taixu Medicine God" form, and a vast energy erupted from his body, forcing the surrounding starships back several steps.

"Fire!" the alien fleet commander roared.

Countless energy beams shot toward Tang Yun, and Tang Yun brandished the Chaos Slaying, blocking all attacks.

Meanwhile, the light on the Holy Son grew brighter and brighter, and he slowly floated toward the black hole, actually beginning to absorb the energy of the black hole!

"This kid..." Tang Yun was startled.

The Holy Son's body began to change; his hair turned black, his eyes turned red, and a pair of black wings grew from his back. His gene chain constantly reorganized, actually fusing the dual codes of the alien civilization and the Medicine King Civilization, evolving into the "Taixu Gu God"!

"Daddy, I'll help you!" the Holy Son's childish voice carried a hint of majesty.

He waved his little hand, and a black energy wave swept out, shattering several starships into pieces.

"This..." The alien fleet commander was stunned; he never imagined a child could possess such terrifying power.

Tang Yun took this opportunity to brandish the Chaos Slaying and seal the World-Destroying Gu Seed in the black hole.

"Retreat!" The alien fleet commander realized the situation was bad and ordered a retreat.

"Want to leave? Not that easy!" Tang Yun sneered, slashed open a massive wormhole with his sword, and sucked all the starships into it.

"You... you actually can control wormholes!" The alien fleet commander was terrified.

"I have the final say." Tang Yun said calmly.

Just then, the Holy Son handed a sphere shimmering with seven-colored light to Tang Yun.

"Daddy, this is the Space-Time Embryo, it can create a new universe." The Holy Son said, "I'm going there to rebuild the Medicine King Civilization."

Tang Yun nodded; he knew this was the Holy Son's mission.

The Holy Son glanced in the direction of Earth, a flash of reluctance in his eyes, then turned and flew into the wormhole.

Tang Yun watched the Holy Son's disappearing figure, his heart filled with mixed feelings. He knew he would never see his son again.

Just then, the global live broadcast screen suddenly switched to Tang Yun. People all over the world saw Tang Yun single-handedly taking on the alien fleet, and the Holy Son evolving into the Taixu Gu God, taking the Space-Time Embryo to a parallel universe.

"Holy crap! Is this real? Am I dreaming?"

"Too awesome! Tang Yun is simply a god!"

"The Holy Son is so cute! It's a pity we'll never see him again."

People discussed it heatedly, their faces filled with shock and excitement.

The aftermath of Tang Yun's battle with the alien fleet actually began to reshape Earth's ecosystem. Polluted rivers became crystal clear, withered trees regained their vitality, and deserts turned into oases...

And at this time, Lin Xiyue, sleeping in the Taixu Medicine Cauldron, felt her Holy Maiden bloodline begin to purify the gene virus remaining on Earth. A soft light radiated from her body, enveloping the entire Earth.

Tang Yun watched the brand-new Earth, and a sense of inexplicable unease suddenly rose in his heart. He always felt that things weren't over yet...

Just then, a familiar voice rang in his ear: "Tang Yun, long time no see."

Tang Yun turned his head sharply, only to see a figure in a black robe standing behind him.

"You are..." Tang Yun widened his eyes, looking at the person before him in disbelief.

"Long time no see, Tang Yun, or should I say, my other self." The black-robed person slowly removed his hood, revealing a face exactly like Tang Yun's.

The black-robed person hooked a bizarre smile at the corner of his mouth: "What, don't you recognize me? I am you."

Tang Yun felt a chill, a cold sensation shooting from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He stared vigilantly at the black-robed person and asked in a deep voice: "Who on earth are you?"

The black-robed person laughed wildly: "Who am I? I am you! It's just that I am you from another universe, a more powerful you!"

Tang Yun frowned tightly; he felt this black-robed person didn't seem to be joking.

"Me from another universe?" Tang Yun muttered to himself, his heart filled with doubt.

"That's right." The black-robed person nodded, "In that universe, I control everything, possessing supreme power and strength. And you are nothing but a failed replica."

A sense of rage rose in Tang Yun's heart: "A replica? What do you mean?"

The black-robed person sneered: "Exactly what I said. You are just a replica I manufactured using gene technology, a tool used for experiments."

"Bullshit!" Tang Yun roared, "I am Tang Yun, the one and only Tang Yun!"

The black-robed person shrugged: "Say whatever you want. But soon you will understand that everything you have was bestowed by me."

Before he finished speaking, the black-robed person suddenly attacked, slapping his palm toward Tang Yun's chest.

Tang Yun was caught off guard and was slapped flying, crashing heavily to the ground.

"Pfft!" Tang Yun spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling his internal organs shift.

"Is this your strength?" The black-robed person laughed contemptuously, "Too weak, unable to withstand a single blow."

Tang Yun struggled to stand up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with rage: "I won't lose to you!"

Just then, a piercing alarm suddenly rang out.

"What's going on?" Tang Yun was startled.

"Deep-sea Gene Reaper eggs have erupted, infecting global marine life!" a terrified voice rang out in the global broadcast.

Tang Yun's expression changed drastically; he immediately realized this was a backup plan left behind when the alien fleet retreated!

"Damn it!" Tang Yun cursed; he knew he had to stop this disaster as soon as possible.
