284. Chapter 191: Grand Finale (Free 3k)

The demonic energy was bound within by the platinum radiance, unable to dissipate even a fraction. Mo Zu looked at Qin Jiang, admiration appearing in his eyes.

"Even looking back through the Ancient Era, I have never seen a person like you. To be defeated by you is no injustice, no injustice at all."

"You are too kind, fellow Daoist. I also never expected that you were a reincarnated Immortal King from the Ancient Era. I wonder if you would be interested in speaking of some ancient secrets?"

Qin Jiang spoke with a smile. Beside him, Dizu Huangzun and Ling Long Xian Wang could not help but have their eyes brighten, clearly very interested in this.

The affairs of the Ancient Era are already difficult to trace. On the continent, apart from a few ancient books of unknown authenticity, almost nothing remains of the Ancient Era. One can only explore it through legends passed down by word of mouth.

Upon hearing this, Mo Zu pondered for a moment, then shook his head with some regret.

"Back then, that Human Ancestor, together with dozens of Immortal Kings, severed the Time River, blurring that segment of ancient history from a conceptual level.

Although I am a reincarnated Immortal King of the Ancient Era, I was also affected and do not remember much.

I only know that when the road to ascending to heaven first appeared that day, immortal corpses fell like rain, immortal king blood flowed like a reversed heavenly river, and the number of fallen clan kings exceeded the count of two hands.

Even recalling it now, I still feel the great terror of that day."

Speaking of this, he could not help but look desolate. Back then, the Reincarnation Hell collapsed, the Six Paths of Reincarnation went out of control, and it turned into a millstone that ground souls to nothing.

At that time, it could be said that every living being who attempted reincarnation became scattered soul essence between heaven and earth, and not even an Immortal King's soul was an exception.

He was also lucky to find a glimmer of survival in that desperate situation where there was no hope of life, allowing him to survive that great tribulation and come to the Near-Ancient Era.

For so many years, he had been plotting his third Immortal King life, simply because he did not want to experience that helplessness during the great tribulation again.

Hearing this, Qin Jiang and the others could not help but be surprised; they had not expected that the so-called "ascending to heaven" only first appeared in the Ancient Era.

Moreover, the road to ascending to heaven seemed to have been opened by human hands at the very beginning.

Was it that Human Ancestor?

Qin Jiang could not help but lower his head. Could there be a connection between the Human Ancestor and Renhuang?

After a moment of silence, he looked at Mo Zu, "I will see you off, fellow Daoist."

Mo Zu nodded slightly, "I will trouble you, fellow Daoist."

As these words fell, the platinum chains around his body ignited with flames. His figure gradually dissolved in the flames, turning into countless strands of Immortal King essence that drifted away.

A mass of demonic energy origin fell into Qin Jiang's palm, where the Di Dao Yuangi and Human Dao killing intent merged into one.

Boom—rumble—rumble! Blood-red dark clouds suddenly gathered over the continent, and a sky full of blood rain fell, carrying countless strands of Immortal King essence to all parts of the continent.

The essence left behind after an Immortal King falls is immeasurable. Before long, the continent will usher in a great era.

"Heavenly blood rain only appears after an immortal being with great merit falls; it has happened fewer than ten times since the Near-Ancient Era.

It seems that this Mo Zu also accomplished earth-shattering feats in that lost Ancient Era. It is just a pity that it is no longer possible to know his name from back then."

Dizu Huangzun sighed. An ancient Immortal King who had lived a second life had fallen just like that; it was hard not to feel some emotion.

Qin Jiang seemed to have sensed his mood and could not help but laugh: "Why must you be like this, Huangzun? Once you unify the continent and pass down the Dragon Scale Great Art, there will also be blood rain from the heavens when you die."

Upon hearing this, Dizu Huangzun's face turned dark, "Fellow Daoist, I am currently in my prime; I have no need to worry about death yet."

Qin Jiang smiled, "I will say no more. I need to find a suitable person to carry this demonic energy origin."

After Mo Zu died, there was no one to carry this demonic energy origin. As time passed, the demonic path in the world would naturally form a status due to the existence of the demonic energy origin.

By then, the demonic path would spontaneously give birth to a peerless great demon to replace Mo Zu in governing the demonic path.

Rather than giving birth to a demonic Immortal King of unknown character at that time, it would be better to choose someone reliable.

As for the candidate, he already had a plan; it was Ao Yun.

Since the other party did not want to wash away the demonic energy on his body, he would help him go a step further.

Moreover, compared to Mo Zu's demonic path of god and demon in one, Ao Yun's demonic path was purer and more compatible with this demonic energy origin.

If it were someone else, even the E'nianshen of Renhuang, they would gradually be eroded by the demonic energy as time passed, eventually turning into a great demon.

It was just that the one who originally controlled the demonic energy origin was Mo Zu, and the demonic path in the world was influenced by him, causing the demonic path Ao Yun cultivated to be extremely incompatible with it, which is why he stopped at the End Realm Peak.

"Good, go ahead, fellow Daoist. I also need to start refining the essence of that ancient beast," Dizu Huangzun said with a smile.

The power contained within this Xian Wang Gu Shou was extremely vast; it might allow him to reach the peak of the early Xianwang Chuji directly.

Beside him, Ling Long Xian Wang also nodded slightly. This battle against the Didao Xiantian Shengsheng had given her significant gains, and she needed to go into seclusion for some time to absorb them.

Three months later, Difu, Mingluo Dayu.

A platinum Array Pattern unfolded over Mingluo Dayu. A platinum cone rose up, and with a 'pop', it began to shatter from the tip, revealing the figure inside.

Demon King Zun held a noble, jade-like body in his arms.

After a period of recovery, the strength of Yinming Fujun had returned to the late Immortal King stage, and his physical body had finished repairing, looking completely different from his previous rotting corpse appearance.

Swish! Demon King Zun was pulled by a great force, tracing an arc emitting black smoke as he fell outside the platinum Array Pattern.

Sss~ The sound of a mechanical door opening rang out. Nongyan Guzhu crawled out from inside. His figure was thin and withered, his originally black hair had turned dry, yellow, and sparse, and his flesh-colored scalp was faintly visible.

"Hah~~~ I'm out~~~"

A hoarse voice came from his throat, carrying the trembling of one who had survived a disaster.

The Nongyan Gu Da Sili beside him hurriedly ran over, taking out a pill to stuff into Nongyan Guzhu's mouth.

But a streak of platinum radiance was faster than him, charging directly into Nongyan Guzhu's glabella.

In an instant, white hair grew wildly and then turned black. Even the aura on Nongyan Guzhu's body began to surge, directly breaking through the barrier of the late Immortal Lord stage.

The platinum radiance dissipated, and Nongyan Guzhu stood proudly with his eyes closed.

Hooo—! He exhaled a breath sharply, his face showing surprise. He could clearly feel that the platinum power in his body had only consumed a small portion! If he absorbed it all, he might be able to condense an Immortal King Body directly!

"Da Sili! Da Sili! I am going to cultivate an Immortal King Body! An Immortal King Body!"

He ran over excitedly and hugged Da Sili, swinging the Da Sili, whose lower back was not in great shape, into the air.

"Guzhu! Guzhu! Immortal King Qin! Quickly, pay respects to Immortal King Qin!" Da Sili shouted loudly while in mid-air.

Nongyan Guzhu was stunned, then looked behind him and hurriedly bowed, "I was abrupt! I hope Immortal King Qin will forgive me!"

Qin Jiang shook his head with a smile and waved a streak of platinum radiance to catch Da Sili, "Guzhu, there is no need for such formalities. Since everything is fine, you should move a bit further away."

After the two had walked far away, Qin Jiang looked at Yinming Fujun, who was suppressed within the array.

In his peak period, Yinming Fujun was perhaps a being comparable to a peak Immortal King, not to be underestimated.

"Person of later generations, you are very strong," Yinming Fujun spoke.

"You are too kind, Fujun." After a long silence, Yinming Fujun spoke first, "Before my physical body was fully restored, my True Spirit was dormant, and I did not know what had happened in the outside world."

Speaking of this, he glanced at the position of Nongyan Guzhu, "If I had the heart, he would not have left alive."

"Does Fujun wish to live?" Qin Jiang asked.

"Even an ant clings to life," Yinming Fujun said.

"The Didao Quanyan has been polluted," Qin Jiang looked directly at Yinming Fujun.

Hearing this, Yinming Fujun's expression changed slightly, "With my power, it is not impossible to resist."

"You already failed back then," Qin Jiang said.

Hearing this, Yinming Fujun lowered his eyes, "Must I die?"

"You must die," Qin Jiang nodded slightly.

Yinming Fujun fell silent, and underworld mist surged around his body.

"Be reborn into the Human Dao," Qin Jiang suddenly spoke.

Yinming Fujun did not speak, but the underworld mist around his body gradually dissipated.

After a long silence, he nodded slightly, "After ten lifetimes, I will ascend to the position of Human Dao Immortal King and take back the Didao Quanyan."

Hearing this, Qin Jiang pondered for a moment, "Agreed."

As the words fell, Yinming Fujun's figure emitted a purple-black shimmer, his physical body gradually turned into underworld mist and dissipated, and a wisp of underworld light flew toward Lunhui Dayu.

When the underworld light reached Lunhui Dayu, an ancient palace rose from the ground, and the underworld light rushed into the ancient palace, its aura vanishing.

A cluster of Didao origin drifted gently into Qin Jiang's palm.

Two years later, outside Changsheng Gu, Qin Jiang held a child who looked to be two or three years old, like a porcelain doll.

At his side, Xu Yanran was dressed in loose robes, already having the air of a young matron.

Taking the child, Xu Yanran wore a faint smile, "Husband, tomorrow Ajie and Sister Linglong are coming over, don't forget to bring back a few Golden Scale Fish."

"Understood, wait for my return," Qin Jiang said with a smile, then turned and left.

A white-gold radiance cut through the sky and fell into Hunluan Hai.

Standing quietly on the sea surface, Qin Jiang looked up at the sky, and a golden-robed figure appeared at his side, emitting the aura of a peak Immortal King.

This was his Dafeng Shu Fenshen; after being separated, he had used eleven types of Immortal Gold Mother Root to refine an Immortal King body, breaking through to the level of a peak Immortal King in one go.

This was also his contingency left on the continent, sufficient to deal with any crisis.

Raising his hand slightly, he pressed his palm onto the top of the clone's head, and a wisp of True Spirit entered it.

The golden robes shifted, becoming identical to Qin Jiang's current attire.

Withdrawing his gaze, he looked at the panel.

【Current Martial Arts】

Immortal King · Ten Directions Hegemony Record (End Realm) (1000000/48000000) 【99%】 【Branch】

Array Dao: Array Dao Supreme (35000000/5000000)

【Potential Point: 194910.1】

In two years, he had almost turned the Zhongyuan Continent upside down, yet he still hadn't been able to raise the Ten Directions Hegemony Record to the perfection level; even the Extreme Realm was still a long way off.

Among this, a large portion came from the Human Emperor Sword and the remnants of some ancient Immortal Kings.

Shaking his head slightly, "It is time to go."

Having said that, his figure disappeared, while the Dafeng Shu Fenshen left in his place headed to Shenzhou to retrieve a few Golden Scale Fish.

On the surging Time River, Qin Jiang stood quietly, gently smoothing the waves.

Feeling the repulsion coming from the world, it was not actually that he wanted to leave, but that his strength was truly too great, almost exceeding the scope of an Immortal King.

Such strength had already created pressure on the world itself; if he stayed for a long time, within an epoch, the world would collapse.

At this thought, white-gold radiance surged in his eyes.

It is fine; once that place is stable, he could just cut off a portion of the world and take it with him.

With the Dafeng Shu Fenshen cooperating from within, this was not a difficult task for him at this moment.

Looking downward, he walked toward a certain point in time.

Daheishan, mountain mist dispersed.

Qin Jiang walked in the mountain mist, looking past the thick fog to see that somewhat hunched figure in the Red Gold Mine.

White-gold radiance flashed and vanished, and a book appeared in his hand, inscribed with "Ten Directions Hegemony Record," and then the characters twisted, becoming "Longevity Five Qi Technique."

Stepping into the mine, the old physician turned his head upon hearing footsteps, and seeing it was Qin Jiang, he couldn't help but smile, "Why have you come? I can just pay my respects to Shuang'er myself."

Qin Jiang smiled, "I suddenly remembered that the previous Longevity Five Qi Technique seemed to have some errors, so I recompiled a copy."

As he spoke, he handed the "Longevity Five Qi Technique" in his hand to the old physician.

The old physician flipped through it with some confusion, "Oh~ so that's how it is. But there was no need to deliver it specially; Daheishan is still somewhat dangerous."

"Old physician, I am leaving," Qin Jiang said.

Hearing this, the old physician was stunned, "Leaving?"

His eyes were puzzled, then he realized, "Yes, you must go out and travel. You are still young; it is the time for you to venture out.

By the way, I have something for you, take it with you."

As he spoke, he turned and walked into the inner side, rummaging through a bundle.

The thick fog outside the cave surged in, obscuring Qin Jiang's figure, and when the thick fog vanished again, his figure had already disappeared.

The old physician straightened his body, holding a Jade Ornament in his hand, but when he turned his head back, he discovered that Qin Jiang was already gone.

"This child, why did he leave in such a hurry?"
