Chapter 982: Stepping Over My Corpse, Shattering All Malice!

No.

This is merely a thought-projection of the Mother Goddess.

A single thought-projection being able to bring Chen Yuan back from the dead is a bit too powerful.

The next moment.

The bloody gash on Chen Yuan's forehead began to heal rapidly.

"Ahhhhh!"

A roar resounded from Chen Yuan's mouth.

The sudden turn of events shocked all the people of the world.

Within the gray fog world created by 【Unity】, Chen Yuan's ranking appeared once again.

Yet, in the very next instant.

The first seat belonging to Bai E dropped, and Chen Yuan's figure sat upon the first.

"Chen Yuan is alive!"

The depths of Xia Hanzhou's eyes were filled with astonishment.

"Chen Yuan has become the first!" the Master of Elements said, bewildered.

"I can feel the malice within Bai E's body being continuously poured into Fanni's body," Xia Zhiyang said in a heavy voice:

"It is not that Chen Yuan has become stronger, but that Bai E has become weaker; after Chen Yuan's resurrection, the first place naturally became Chen Yuan's."

"Then he will obtain Unity!"

The Universe Master's voice was extremely heavy.

Dread appeared in the eyes of Lu Xunyang, the Master of Elements, Xia Hanzhou, and the others.

【Unity】 is the world's number one divine technique; once Chen Yuan obtains it, to what extent will Chen Yuan's strength rise?

The next moment.

Boom, boom, boom!

Xia Zhiyang and the others erupted instantly, transforming into streaks of light as they flew toward the deep space of the universe.

Yet, in the next moment.

Boom!

Malice!

An indescribable, massive malice suddenly erupted from within Chen Yuan's body!

Screech!

Hundreds of millions of ear-piercing shrieks resounded.

"Ahhhhh!"

Within the human world, shrieking sounds suddenly resounded; countless people clutched their heads, not daring to look directly.

A god is descending!

Screech!

Endless fear struck suddenly, and that endless malice climbed over every star like hundreds of millions of twisted tentacles.

Corrosion, transformation!

Chen Yuan's body began to swell, his bones crackled, and his flesh tore inch by inch only to be reconstructed inch by inch.

An Ancient God status suddenly appeared from his forehead, aggressively merging into his brain.

Screech!

The deep space of the universe twisted around him, and starlight was pulled by an invisible force into spiral-shaped, ghastly white threads that coiled around his torso.

Lu Xunyang's expression changed drastically as he looked down at the human world below.

All living beings were terrified!

The next moment.

Boom!

A powerful force of will erupted from within Lu Xunyang, transforming into a barrier to protect the entire human world.

The Master of Elements, the Universe Master, Xia Hanzhou, Xia Zhiyang, and others simultaneously unleashed their methods.

Layers of energy barriers protected the firmament.

Li Zhiyi stood in the depths of the universe, his expression cold:

"Do not come over!"

"What is happening!"

The Master of Elements screamed in shock:

"Why has Chen Yuan resurrected, and why has he turned into an Ancient God!"

Li Zhiyi's eyes were blood-red:

"Unity is the Ancient God status."

His voice was calm, but as it landed in the heart of the Master of Elements, it felt like a giant boulder falling into an abyss.

Li Zhiyi narrowed his eyes and looked at Jilie behind Chen Yuan.

That person was like a phantom, dressed in a white dress, with a charming smile on their face.

The Mother Goddess herself has not yet arrived, but this wisp of a thought-projection is going to bring endless trouble to Chen Yuan.

Screech!

Chen Yuan roared, his body being forcibly transformed toward an unknown direction.

Compound eyes grew upon his body, rotating irregularly, reflecting the terrified and twisted faces of all living beings in the human world.

Hundreds of millions of frenzied ravings sought to tear apart Chen Yuan's consciousness.

"Unity..."

Chen Yuan roared with difficulty.

A vertical pupil split open at the center of his forehead, flowing with inhuman indifference.

Wherever the pupil's light passed, matter spontaneously decayed and sprouted unspeakable fleshy appendages.

The entire universe was being rapidly polluted, corrupted, and transformed into a filth sinking into the abyss.

"He is going to surpass the Bai E of the past!"

Xia Zhiyang watched, terrified, his pupils trembling wildly at this moment.

The Lord of Elements, the Lord of the Universe, and the others had faces of extreme difficulty; they could feel Chen Yuan's gaze.

That pollution, which struck directly at the depths of the soul, was too horrifying.

"As expected..."

Chen Yuan's voice was hoarse, the sounds overlapping and echoing as if thousands of consciousnesses were roaring simultaneously.

The Ancient God status was causing his soul to sink and become filthy beyond measure.

"I didn't guess wrong, I didn't... guess wrong..."

Chen Yuan used his last shred of consciousness to resist the erosion from the malice:

"Bai E is not important, Fanni is not important; what is important is the Mother God."

Jilie gently stroked his face, her eyes filled with endless tenderness.

She said nothing, yet it was as if she had said a great deal.

"You are already very tired; leave the rest to me."

She spoke in a soft voice.

"Hahahaha!!!"

Chen Yuan laughed out loud:

"You are wrong, you are wrong!"

Chen Yuan was detaching from the mindset belonging to humans, changing toward the existence of some eternal, inviolable entity.

His physical body began to swell, and countless malice spilled from within him, transforming in the void into countless tiny, wriggling pitch-black tentacles.

Xia Zhiyang and the other supreme beings of the human race could only exhaust their means, deploying barriers to protect the human race.

Otherwise, if this pollution flowed into the human race, it would mean the death of hundreds of millions of living beings.

"Hahahaha!"

Chen Yuan laughed out loud:

"You are wrong."

His consciousness was gradually disappearing, but he held onto the last shred of reason.

Jilie looked at him, her expression becoming even softer.

It was as if she were watching a bug that kept struggling, using its final life to refute itself.

"The time is wrong, hahaha, the time is wrong!"

Chen Yuan laughed miserably:

"The Thousand-Day Ancient God appears, it is definitely not today, and it is definitely not me."

Chen Yuan looked at Li Zhiyi, his voice hoarse at this moment:

"Chen Yan, do it!"

Jilie looked at Li Zhiyi, the smile in her eyes gradually disappearing, but her brows furrowed the next moment.

Li Zhiyi's eyes flickered, and he reached out one hand.

The next moment.

Crack, crack, crack!

Something broke out from within Chen Yuan's body, tearing Chen Yuan's physical body from the inside out.

Hah!

Chen Yuan roared, pitch-black blood spraying continuously.

Jilie narrowed her eyes.

Yet, the next moment was seen.

Splat!

A pitch-black iron ball broke out from Chen Yuan's body and flew into Li Zhiyi's hand.

Immediately, the pitch-black iron ball changed, transforming into the appearance of the Ash-Evil Spear.

"You..." Jilie's brows furrowed.

Yet it was seen that what the Ash-Evil Spear encased were three statuses: white and red!

The red and blue were the statuses of Tempering and Blood-Qi Martial Dao.

As for the white status, it was the Martial Dao status belonging to the path of techniques!

Li Zhiyi's eyes were calm.

The reason it was like this.

Was still because of that sentence the Lord of Chen said before he killed the Lord of Chen.

"Shatter me, this person; shatter the Martial Dao status within my body; shatter every possibility I will produce!"

It was very clear.

The Lord of Chen knew that 【Unity】 was the Ancient God status.

Therefore, after absorbing all the opportunities from the Dao Child contention, Chen Yuan could have originally become the number one in the human world.

It was Chen Yuan who confidently interrupted the fusion of the rules, making himself the second.

The purpose was to prevent the Ancient God status from falling upon himself.

But Chen Yuan's considerations would not be limited to just this.

He would think of one point.

That is, if he did not go to become stronger, what if Bai E weakened on his own?

Wouldn't he still become the number one, and also obtain the Ancient God status?

Moreover, Ji Chen must have also sought out the Chen Lord, telling the Chen Lord about the things that would happen in the future.

There is a Martial Dao Lord who becomes an Ancient God.

Therefore, the Chen Lord said that sentence before dying.

Since Bai E has weakened, the possibility of him, Chen Yuan, becoming the number one.

Then why shouldn't he, Chen Yuan, also weaken at the same time?

How to weaken?

That is to directly shatter the Martial Dao status belonging to the Chen Lord.

Let the Chen Lord lose his Ninth-Rank strength.

If the Chen Lord's strength weakens, then the number one in the human world would naturally become Bai E again.

So when Chen Yuan said this sentence, Li Zhiyi also understood in a second.

The spear he used to kill Chen Yuan was a long spear formed by the power of will.

And the Ember Evil Spear, through its inherent means of transformation, entered the Chen Lord's body to search for the location of the status.

"Hahahaha!"

Chen Yuan laughed out loud, blood and tears flowing out.

"There is no longer a Dao of Techniques in the world!"

He had just comprehended the Dao of Techniques, yet now the status of the Dao of Techniques was about to be crushed by Li Zhiyi.

At this moment.

Jilie's gaze, however, became increasingly terrifying.

Li Zhiyi watched Jilie calmly.

The next moment, he squeezed with one hand.

Crack!

Three Martial Dao statuses shattered abruptly.

Chirp!

A sharp screech resounded.

Within the gray fog world created by 【Return to One】, Bai E became the number one again.

The inheritance of the Ancient God status belonging to Chen Yuan suddenly terminated.

Within the boundless universe, the constantly surging malice gradually receded, and the Ancient God status within Chen Yuan's body quickly disappeared without a trace.

But Chen Yuan had already turned into a behemoth, drifting within the boundless universe.

At this moment, he died completely.

The phantom of Jilie came before Li Zhiyi and looked at Li Zhiyi.

The next moment.

She smiled.

At this moment.

Chen Yuan began to fall.

Falling continuously.

His consciousness was rapidly disappearing.

His final consciousness lingered on a certain moment from his past.

That year, he was chosen as the Chen Lord.

That year, he attained the Dao on the mountain and accepted the Blood Brand inheritance.

He sat cross-legged amidst the wind and snow, looking at the Blood Brand before him.

"I, Chen Yuan, am willing to walk a path that no one dares to walk."

He whispered.

Hum!

The Blood Brand hummed.

The voice of the Xia Lord appeared in the depths of his mind:

"I have already told you the truth of the world; do you still dare to refute me?"

Chen Yuan lowered his head:

"The Xia Lord is a legend of the human world, and I, Chen Yuan, am but an ordinary person; how could I be worthy of being the successor of the Xia Lord?"

"I have ten thousand ways to make you submit."

The Xia Lord's voice was cold.

The middle-aged Chen Yuan's eyes were calm:

"Chen Yuan is willing to await the Xia Lord's methods."

The Xia Lord did not expect Chen Yuan to be so resolute.

"Hahaha!"

"This is getting interesting!"

The Xia Lord laughed loudly:

"Too many people in this world fear me and revere me, yet you, Chen Yuan, are actually not afraid of me."

Chen Yuan stood up and bowed to the Blood Brand before him:

"But I, Chen Yuan, revere the Xia Lord; if not for the Xia Lord, the human race would not be where it is today."

The Xia Lord was silent for a long time before his voice echoed in Chen Yuan's mind once again.

"Then what do you intend to do?

Create a new path of Martial Dao?"

Chen Yuan shook his head:

"Chen Yuan is ignorant and incapable of such a magnificent feat as creating a path of Dao."

"Then what do you intend to do?"

Chen Yuan's eyes were complex as he spoke calmly:

"Chen is willing to be a gatekeeper for the human race, a gatekeeper who will stop at nothing.

I will keep watch until a certain person appears."

"What kind of person?" The Xia Lord's voice turned cold.

A smile appeared in Chen Yuan's eyes:

"A person capable of changing the future; he will personally slay me with his own hands..."

A look of anticipation appeared in Chen Yuan's eyes:

"And then, stepping over my corpse, he will shatter all malice!"
