Chapter 1019: Everyone is Here

This hand was thick and sturdy, its blood vessels bulging, entirely blood-colored, and covered in rotting tentacles. While it looked ferocious and disgusting, a terrifying power was also rising within it.

Its power seemed capable of holding up the sky, affecting the surroundings, and tearing the void.

It was vast and astonishing, shaking the mind.

It also gave people a sense similar to a god, distorting everything and invading all things.

The moment it appeared, in the eyes of everyone here, time seemed to stand still, and space also shattered.

Everything, everything, seemed to become a foil in front of this blood-colored large hand.

Only this hand was the sole focus here.

The violence and cruelty contained within formed a will capable of crushing all parties, making all Sovereigns here tremble in their minds, their souls fluctuating, and their physical bodies suppressed to the point of being unable to move in the slightest.

Xu Qing and the Captain were the same; facing the power of this blood hand, they bled from seven orifices, the world turned upside down, their perception was disordered, as if they had become a lonely boat in a raging wave, about to be overturned at any moment.

At the critical moment, Xu Qing endured the feeling of collapse, rapidly took out the token given by the Empress, and squeezed it fiercely.

Immediately, this token emitted a gentle force, enveloping the two, offsetting the pressure storm from that blood-colored large hand.

And the one with the greatest emotional fluctuation here was the black-robed person in mid-air.

At this moment, his pupils contracted, and the moment the hand appeared, without the slightest hesitation, his body retreated fiercely.

At the same time, while pinching a seal, amidst the clattering sounds, a large number of black iron chains appeared out of thin air from the nothingness in all directions, like black snakes, heading straight for the blood-colored large hand.

These iron chains were all burning, emitting terrifying fire, and after approaching, they wrapped rapidly.

In an instant, they bound the blood-colored large hand.

Pulling fiercely, attempting to block the momentum of the large hand.

But a strange scene appeared.

The black iron chains that had produced a sharp effect on the Immortal Remains before clearly encountered a stronger existence this time.

After wrapping, they couldn't restrict it.

That large hand was like the sun, moon, and stars in operation, impossible to be restrained. At this moment, under a rush, the iron chains bound on it transmitted harsh 'ka ka' sounds.

Actually collapsing and shattering one by one.

In the blink of an eye, all rolled back.

The blood-colored large hand, having lost its restraint, had even stronger momentum, carrying the power of ten thousand jun, carrying the power of destruction, heading straight for the black-robed person.

Seeing this, the black-robed person's expression changed completely. Regardless of the cost, he unfolded secret techniques and sprayed blood, wanting to retreat during the grab of that large hand.

But in the end, he was still a step too late.

This blood-colored large hand reaching out from the vortex whistled, directly shattering time and space, sealing everything, with an unstoppable and irresistible momentum, crushing everything, arriving in front of the black-robed person.

No matter how strange this black-robed person had been before, now in front of this blood-colored large hand, all behaviors were ineffective.

Finally, amidst his pale face and low roar, his body was ultimately grabbed by this blood-colored large hand!

All of this made the hearts of the crowd tremble.

And combined with the scene before, the layout of this underground palace, as well as the Yun family ancestor's sacrifice to make the Immortal Remains revive and suppress the Sovereigns of all parties, were clearly all to lure...

To lure the black-robed person to appear and loot the life soul.

This was clearly a trap and bait prepared specifically for him.

Now, the bait was set, and the prey had fallen into the trap, so the large hand appeared.

The black-robed person grabbed by it, even if his face was ferocious and his body emitted black fire and imprints, wanting to struggle and counterattack.

But it was of no avail.

That blood-colored large hand flickered, wanting to grab the black-robed person and return into the vortex, disappearing without a trace.

This scene made the hearts of the crowd tremble.

And the Moyu Great Emperor's voice was still echoing.

"Leave!"

As this word exited, his body instantly appeared to overlap.

This overlap instantly turned into a shadow.

Vaguely, it seemed that on the black-robed person's body, another figure appeared.

The appearance of this figure was completely different from the black-robed person; this person had a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, seemingly having lived in a high position for a long time, his expression dignified without anger, and full of terrifying pressure.

The moment he saw this person clearly, Xu Qing's heart surged.

This person... was actually the one who had brought people to the Dao Platform before, and when the place of seclusion opened, sat cross-legged at the peak of the Dao Platform, waiting for everyone to return... Moyu Great Emperor!

Clearly, the Moyu outside was not his true body.

And the one appearing here now was the true body.

As for the black-robed person, he was just the first layer of protection controlled by him and shrouded outside the true body. Because with the obviousness of the shadow, the moment the large hand dragged him back, Moyu's figure flickered, and like a cicada shedding its skin, he directly detached from the black-robed person's body.

The moment he appeared, the cultivation fluctuation of a Great Emperor erupted violently on his body, and his body also rapidly condensed, turning into a true body.

Pieces of Great Emperor treasures appeared around him, pieces of authority Dao marks rose on his body, and behind him, rings of black mist rotated. The Great Emperor's might was incomparably intense.

His gaze was even more sharp and astonishing, as if containing lightning, staring at the large hand.

"You finally appeared!"

Following Moyu Great Emperor's opening, the black-robed person, amidst shrill wails, was dragged into the vortex by the blood-colored large hand and disappeared.

This scene made the hearts of the crowd tremble.

And Moyu Great Emperor's voice was still echoing.

"Ming Yan, I knew long ago that you hadn't died, but were lingering on in a steadily worsening condition."

"The previous world of memory fragments was just your means to confuse others."

"Even here, it's just your smoke screen."

"However, there is one point that surprises me very much. Ming Yan, you indeed have courage; in order to lure me into the trap, you actually placed your true life soul here."

"Letting me watch the life soul being absorbed and refined, thus having to choose to take action and enter the trap to interrupt it."

Moyu Great Emperor stared coldly at the blood-colored vortex below, his voice hoarse, revealing thick killing intent.

The vortex was still rotating, emitting rumbling sounds, without any words in response.

"But how could I not make any preparations before coming to this place."

Moyu Great Emperor finished speaking, didn't look at anyone here, but raised his head to look at a closed stone gate, and spoke lightly.

"Empress, since you have come, why are you not prepared to appear yet!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Sovereigns of all parties here had their expressions change drastically, all staring at the place Moyu Great Emperor was looking at.

Because in their cognition, only one person possessed the title of Empress.

That was the human race's god-becoming Human Emperor Li Xia!

And the moment they looked over, the Empress's figure slowly revealed itself from the place Ming Yan Great Emperor was looking at.

First it was the body of Lu Lingzi, and then it slowly faded away, revealing the Empress's true body!

Luck rolled around her, manifesting countless human figures, gathering from all directions, forming a dazzling imperial robe outside her body, and shaping a world-shocking imperial crown on her head.

At this moment, outside the Moyu Holy Land, the heaven and earth of the human race, the will of the human race, were all rising, merging into luck, and blessing the Empress.

Thus, a terrifying aura, a heaven-shaking momentum, rose to the sky on the Empress's body.

The Sovereigns of all parties here all trembled under this momentum, each breathing rapidly, especially those who had once had the thought of sparring with Lu Lingzi, all gasped.

Surprised, but also not surprised.

Surprised was normal, not surprised was because of the appearance of Xu Qing and the other.

But regardless, at this moment, the Sovereigns of all parties were all extremely heavy in their hearts.

And the Empress, with a normal expression, took a step forward and appeared in front of Xu Qing and Chen Erniu.

Blocking the storm and resolving the pressure.

Xu Qing felt relieved in his heart, and Chen Erniu also relaxed.

The two didn't hesitate in the slightest and immediately paid their respects.

The Empress didn't turn around, but looked up at Moyu Great Emperor in mid-air. Regarding being called out by her identity, it was within her expectation, so she spoke lightly.

"Moyu Holy Land, leave the heaven of the human race, and Ming Yan's soul belongs to me."

Moyu Great Emperor revealed a smile upon hearing this.

He knew that it was very difficult to hide the fact that he had seen through the other party's identity, and although they were currently in a period of war, he knew very well that for himself...

What was important was not the outcome of the war, but Ming Yan's life or death.

He hoped Ming Yan would die, and then he would take back his life soul.

This point did not conflict with the Empress.

So when he suspected Lu Lingzi's identity back then, he didn't interfere, but let the other party return, and opened this place of Ming Yan's seclusion. Ultimately, he hoped the Empress would test the waters for him in front, and join forces at the critical moment.

And the Empress's request was also within his expectation.

"I have two parts of the life soul. Now the first part has been obtained by me, and I can perceive there is another part below."

Moyu Great Emperor's eyes revealed decisiveness.

"You and I join forces, you take Ming Yan, I take the life soul, we each have what we need, and after this, the Moyu Holy Land will leave the heaven of the human race."

"Deal!"

After Moyu finished speaking, his body took a step forward, directly arriving outside the vortex, looking at the Empress.

The Empress's gaze swept across the Sovereigns of all parties here, especially the old man who was good at death aura. Under the Empress's gaze, his heart trembled, and he immediately lowered his head to show respect.

Even if they were enemies, facing the God Platform, he didn't have the courage to look at her.

Especially... he knew very well that this gaze was a warning.

The Empress withdrew her gaze, took a step, arrived beside Moyu, and stood on the vortex.

The two bodies sank at the same time, directly falling into the vortex, and the next instant, disappeared without a trace.

As for the others, they were currently hesitating whether to follow, but before they could decide, the space transformed by the underground palace transmitted a sense of extinction, and all directions withered.

It was disappearing.

Seeing this, these Sovereigns gritted their teeth, their bodies rushed out, flying toward the vortex below.

One by one, they submerged within.

The old man who had a conflict with Xu Qing and the other, seemingly worried about being misunderstood, didn't dare to be the last to step in, but snatched ahead of Lin Kun and flew into the vortex.

Soon, these Sovereigns all disappeared.

Xu Qing and Chen Erniu looked at each other.

Both saw the decisiveness in each other's eyes.

Then they took a deep breath and rushed over in an instant.

They stepped into the vortex the same way, and amidst the roaring sounds, their figures disappeared.

When they appeared, they were in a blood-colored world!

The sky was composed of flesh and blood, growing countless fluff.

The earth was a completely transparent sea.

On the sea, countless flesh and blood were piled up, forming a huge meat tumor.

Inside the meat tumor, a middle-aged cultivator sat cross-legged.

His body emitted an ancient and vicissitudinous aura, accompanied by a terrifying aura. His eyes slowly opened and closed, staring at the crowd descending from the sky, and he grinned.

"Everyone is here. Welcome to witness my rebirth." ===== CHAPTER 1022 =====
