~19 min read 3,634 words

Within the dark red space-time, God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing was going all out. He was frantically extracting the origin power of the altar, on one hand to maintain the stability of this space-time and block the attacks from the various emperors of the Universe Realm and Li Yuan's true self.

On the other hand, under the reinforcement of a massive amount of altar origin power, God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's strength became even greater, and he manifested an overwhelming domain attack, attempting to thoroughly shred Li Yuan's five true bodies.

And having lost the reinforcement of the Universe Realm Lotus.

The strength of Li Yuan's five true bodies was significantly weakened, and under God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's siege, they were exhausted and rapidly fell into a disadvantage.

This is the specialty of a domain.

Just a moment ago, Li Yuan had relied on the Universe Lotus to control the initiative of the battlefield, but now the initiative was in God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's hands. Countless dark red blade lights, continuous and unending, finally began to break through the defenses of Li Yuan's five true bodies.

"Boom!"

"Boom!" "Boom!" A large number of dark red blade lights began to bombard Li Yuan's battle armor. The terrifying impact force of the Sovereign level then passed through the battle armor and directly impacted his divine body.

"It has begun!"

"Your explosive strength is strong because of your ultimate arts and top-tier imperial weapons—but in a life-and-death struggle between powerhouses, one must also look at survival ability." God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing was filled with anticipation: "During our previous clashes, you used your weapons to block all of my attacks, making it very difficult for me to hurt you."

"But now, you can only rely on your battle armor. How long can you block?"

"You are, after all, only at the God King realm. How strong can your divine body really be?"

When powerhouses of similar strength clash, if they use weapons to block, the impact force will be weakened by more than half or even entirely, only then impacting the battle armor, and subsequently the divine body.

But to take it head-on with just the battle armor? The impact received by the divine body would be more than ten times stronger—the requirements for material defense would skyrocket.

Once the divine body is damaged, to recover it, not only would divine power consumption skyrocket, but one's own explosive strength would also weaken.

Therefore, in a powerhouse struggle, once one side cannot completely block the opponent's attacks, divine power consumption begins to skyrocket, and the probability of falling also increases significantly.

In God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's view, no matter how monstrous Li Yuan is, he is only at the God King realm; his material defense cannot possibly rival a true Sovereign.

"Even if your material defense rivals the peak of the Emperor realm, under continuous bombardment and damage, your strength will plummet, and you will surely die."

"As long as I annihilate your five true bodies, who can stop me?" God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing thought this, a trace of a smile even appearing on his face, but his smile soon stiffened.

Because!

Despite the impact of those countless dark red streams of light, Li Yuan's five true bodies only formed a complete formation, firmly guarding their side of the void, while the aura of his divine body did not weaken—clearly, the domain attack manifested by the altar's origin power had a negligible effect on Li Yuan.

His material defense was unimaginably strong.

And Li Yuan's five true bodies were also attacking frantically; their violent, surging, and endless attacks were also constantly consuming the altar's origin power.

Their powers were constantly consuming each other.

"How is this possible!"

"A God King realm, how can his material defense be this strong?" God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing found it completely unacceptable in his heart; it would be one thing if his material attacks were strong.

But his material defense is also this heaven-defying?

Where would he know that the Sub-Saint ultimate art Li Yuan practiced, "Hundred Paths Saint Body," after reaching the second layer, had a divine body toughness that could surpass low-grade imperial weapons, and was not too far from mid-grade imperial weapons.

Let alone those domain attacks which were only near the Sovereign level—even a true peak Sovereign powerhouse, going all out, would find it extremely difficult to destroy a low-grade imperial weapon, and destroying a mid-grade imperial weapon with brute force in a short time was nearly impossible.

The forging of imperial weapons is generally counted in ten-thousands of years.

Moreover, Li Yuan's divine body surface was still wearing a top-grade imperial weapon battle armor, which was a double defense; therefore, this kind of domain attack caused minimal damage to Li Yuan.

"To be able to force out all my means, Sovereign Yun Jing, you can be considered formidable." Li Yuan's eyes were cold, his battle intent soaring: "If you have any other trump cards, use them all."

"Or perhaps, this power you are using originates from the Abyss, endless and infinite."

Saying this with his mouth, Li Yuan did not believe it in his heart.

If this power before him truly originated from the Abyss—then his side would have no possibility of winning at all; this is something the operation of the universe's rules would never allow.

In front of the universe's rules, even Eternal Relics can only take shortcuts, but cannot resist head-on—the universe's rules are what possess peerless power.

"Quick! Combined attack!"

"The Alliance Leader's five true bodies, their material defense is heaven-defying, they have held off God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's attacks."

"Consume as much as possible."

"This must be God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's final means; as long as we attack this independent space-time, we can destroy the Abyss Altar." God Emperor Juexing, God Emperor Wan Dao, God Emperor Xingkong, and the others were all attacking with all their might, even not hesitating to start burning their own life origin, just so their attacks could be a little more powerful.

Frantically consuming the power of the dark red space-time.

Although they could not spy on the battle scene inside the dark red space-time, Li Yuan had been synchronizing his battle situation; after all, at such a life-and-death moment, every God Emperor must understand every subtle change in the battle situation to make the best response.

Of course!

The truly decisive power still lay with Li Yuan's true self and God Emperor Xinmeng.

The nine streams of light formed by the Universe Lotus caused the dark red to tremble slightly with every attack; clearly, the Sovereign-level attacks were putting it under immense pressure.

God Emperor Xinmeng's Purifying Universe Flame River was even more of a pure mutual consumption, as if trading life for life.

The incomparably precious Purifying Universe Flame was consumed just like that; I fear even a Supreme would feel heartache, but God Emperor Xinmeng could not care about that at this moment.

As long as Li Yuan's five true bodies could be freed as soon as possible, the victory could be secured.

"Still can't kill him?"

"God Emperor Abyss, he... can't win?"

"This Sub-Saint Xinyuan, his strength is too terrifying." God King Moyun, God King Mohai, and the others sat atop the Abyss Altar; watching the battle from close range, such a battle scene made their hearts tremble.

Too strong.

By now, even though they were only at the God King realm, they could barely see the battlefield situation; their side's domain had already used all its power, yet still could not thoroughly defeat Sub-Saint Xinyuan.

——

Although trapped, he could not be killed.

"We... did we do something wrong? Should we not have defected to the Abyss?"

"What should we do?" Those hundreds of God Kings who chose to betray were even more bitter in their hearts at this moment. They had originally seen that God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing was powerful, and with hundreds of years passing, the Alliance side seemed unable to do anything to God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing, so they chose to betray to survive.

But looking at it now, the result seemed very bad.

Their choice, just to survive, seemed blameless, but from the moment of betrayal, it was destined that they could only walk down this path to the end.

If God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing was defeated, they would also surely die.

In the incomparably distant Immortal Heaven and Earth, within the Supreme Han Xing Star City.

"Lost!"

"The Abyss Altar actually still has such special means, and can even form its own space-time."

——

"It's not that God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing isn't strong enough; he has already exhausted all his strength, but still cannot defeat him." The seven great Sovereigns, including Sovereign Anlu and Sovereign Master Lian Fu, were all watching the giant light screen projection in front of them.

What was revealed on the light screen projection was exactly the Altar Realm decisive battle erupting in the Xinmeng Universe Realm.

And at the very front of the seven great Sovereigns was that thin figure—Supreme Han Xing.

According to the agreement between him and God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing, once Li Yuan and the others launched a counterattack, God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing had to immediately synchronize the battle situation to him.

"Master?" Sovereign Anlu could not help but look at Supreme Han Xing.

"Defeated."

"This Sub-Saint Xinyuan is indeed a monster." Supreme Han Xing's expression was calm; although he was unwilling to admit it, as a Supreme, he could also calmly face the occurrence of any situation.

He asked himself, he had already exhausted all his strength to help God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing.

Even as a Supreme, top-tier imperial weapons are very precious—to be able to select two that were suitable for God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing was already very rare.

Among his personal disciples, not one had received such a bestowal from him.

"I hope this Sovereign Yun Jing can escape with his life." Supreme Han Xing said lightly; even if the Abyss Altar was destroyed, God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing still had a possibility of escaping.

As long as he escaped.

At least, there was hope for his two top-tier imperial weapons to be recovered.

In a space-time not too far from the Xinmeng Universe Realm.

"Won."

"This Sub-Saint Xinyuan did not disappoint me." The black-clothed old man, "Supreme Jing," looked remotely into the depths of that vast Universe Realm, as if he could perceive the battlefield scene.

A trace of a smile appeared on his face: "At least I didn't waste my World Tribulation Origin Marrow."

Li Yuan thought he had gone far away.

But in reality, all these years, Supreme Jing had been secretly staying beside the Universe Realm; his plan was very good—if Li Yuan won, that was fine.

Once Li Yuan lost.

The Xinmeng Universe Realm would be destroyed, but Li Yuan and God Emperor Xinmeng would still be alive; in their madness, they would definitely continue to besiege God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing.

At that time, he would then take action to help Li Yuan once more; regardless of success or failure, it would allow Li Yuan to owe him another favor.

Of course.

From the bottom of his heart, Supreme Jing hoped Li Yuan would win; if he could win, it meant Li Yuan's talent and strength were indeed unimaginably strong.

"At the God King realm, to have such strength, perhaps he really can change the pattern of the Eternal Relics of the entire universe." Supreme Jing thought to himself.

His vision was extremely high, and he knew many secrets.

He knew very clearly that the Abyss and the Immortal Heaven and Earth had been fighting all along, but the Abyss occupied the initiative of the "Abyss Altar Realm," and thus had the upper hand over the long years.

Once Li Yuan succeeded, the Immortal Heaven and Earth would rapidly grow stronger.

"Once he succeeds, as long as I can exchange for the World-Containing Secret Treasure, my hometown will also have hope of extending its life again, and I will also have more time." Supreme Jing muttered in his heart.

Time!

For him, having more time meant having a greater hope of transcendence.

Suddenly.

"Hmm." Supreme Jing's expression changed; he sensed a special and slightly familiar aura: "This is? Not good! How is this possible—"

Inside the Xinmeng Universe Realm, in the depths of the Abyss Altar, both sides were still engaged in an incomparably frantic slaughter. Although God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing was already in despair in his heart, he still held onto a final glimmer of hope.

It was just that the material defense of Li Yuan's five trapped true bodies was truly too powerful, and they remained standing tall.

And outside the dark red space-time, Li Yuan, God Emperor Xinmeng, and the others were in high spirits.

Under their frantic attacks, the origin power of the Altar Realm was being consumed rapidly, and the entire dark red space-time had already begun to show signs of instability.

But just at this moment—

"Hum~" A seemingly weak fluctuation erupted from that towering, endless Abyss Altar.

Although this fluctuation was weak, every God Emperor present, including Li Yuan, clearly sensed it—this fluctuation originated from the Abyss.

Weak, yet incomparably grand; that aura of the Dao, as if eternal, far surpassed the eternal Dao aura of any God Emperor present.

"Boom!"

This weak Abyss fluctuation erupted thoroughly from the altar, instantly impacting in all directions, causing the space-time in all ten directions to choke; all the God Emperors present felt a formless power, a suppression of their soul and will.

"What is the situation?"

"This fluctuation, it seems to originate from the Abyss?"

"But how can the power of the Eternal Relics descend into this space-time?" God Emperor Juexing, God Emperor Wan Dao, God Emperor Xingkong, and the others all had a trace of shock and doubt flash across their faces.

The Eternal Relics indeed have infinite power, far surpassing the cultivators of the universe.

But to be able to open a passage in the universe's space-time was already rare; to want to interfere with the operation of the universe's space-time? Almost impossible! It was more likely that this was inside the Universe Realm.

Every Universe Realm is itself a manifestation of the operation of the universe's rules.

"Abyss Will?"

"It's the Abyss Will! It's this aura! Li Yuan, you must be careful; when Brother Beihe was attacked back then, it was this aura." Xiaomu's voice carried a trace of panic, suddenly ringing in Li Yuan's mind.

Abyss Will?

Li Yuan's heart immediately rose with vigilance; what did the Abyss Will want to do? And what could it do?

————While Li Yuan, God Emperor Xingkong, God Emperor Juexing, and the others were all shocked and uncertain, continuing to attack while raising their vigilance.

"Abyss?"

"Sacrificing the True Self? Invoking Eternal Power?" Deep in God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's eyes, however, a trace of fear flashed. Originally, he had already prepared to escape with his life.

As long as he could escape, he could still survive for a short time.

Alive, everything is possible.

But!

When the aura of the Abyss Will was revealed, God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing sensed a trace of something bad in his heart; when he felt the message transmitted from the Abyss Altar, he understood that he had thoroughly lost all choices.

Except for falling, there was almost no other choice.

"Great and supreme Abyss Will, your humble servant is willing to burn and sacrifice flesh, divine body, eternal Dao insights, and even everything including the soul—just for the eternal Abyss to descend into this realm! To wipe out all evil!" God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's heart was dripping blood, yet he was forced to begin completing this final ritual.

Abyss Altar Realm!

Besides devouring everything in the Universe Realm, there was one final move, which was to burn and sacrifice the Abyss Sovereign himself—this move was to take the Abyss Sovereign's own life as the price, acting as a fulcrum, allowing the power of the Abyss Will to truly descend briefly.

Under normal circumstances, even if an Abyss Sovereign did this, the Abyss Will would not choose to descend, because the consumption to the Abyss would also be extremely, extremely great; even if it eventually obtained the Heart of the Universe Realm, it would not be worth the loss.

The cost would far outweigh the gain.

But this time, under the circumstance that God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing was prepared to escape—the Abyss Will took the initiative to descend, demanding God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing to burn and sacrifice his True Self.

Clearly!

The Abyss Will's target was not the Xinmeng Universe Realm itself.

Boom! The Abyss Altar suddenly erupted with endless brilliant light; dark red radiance shrouded everything, causing the power of this dark red space-time to skyrocket.

Almost at the same moment.

"Xinyuan."

"It was all forced by you! Forced by you." God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's three true bodies suddenly burst into loud laughter, the laughter permeated with endless despair: "I knew long ago that the Abyss path was difficult, but I didn't expect that even before becoming a Supreme, I would have to fall! Hahaha!"

Fall?

Li Yuan's expression changed; he sensed a trace of something bad in his heart. Even if the Abyss Altar was destroyed, God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing would not die for the time being.

In reality, having cultivated the Abyss Demon Body, God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's survival ability was extremely strong; Li Yuan did not have absolute certainty that he could thoroughly kill him.

But now, the opponent actually said he was going to fall? Thinking back to the aura of the Abyss Will that had just been revealed.

"I fall!"

"You won't have it easy either! Let the entire Universe Realm be buried with me!"

"Burn and sacrifice! True Self!"

"Hum~"

God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's three great true bodies suddenly began to burn; an expression of endless pain appeared on his face, simply ten times or a hundred times more painful than when the Purifying Universe Flame River descended.

In his eyes, there was even more despair, madness, unwillingness, and some helplessness.

His soul aura was rapidly weakening, as if walking toward the end of his life!

But the aura manifested by his three great true bodies was also climbing at an astonishing speed, as if performing an orderly self-detonation.

It sounds slow.

In reality, in an instant, God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's soul aura had thoroughly burned out, and his life had thoroughly ended.

"Hum~"

At the same moment, God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing's three great true bodies, that surging aura, completely merged into one, subsequently transforming into a sky-piercing torrent; the terror of that torrent's power blasted Li Yuan's five true bodies completely to one side, subsequently blasting into that towering, endless Abyss Altar.

Immediately!

Boom! The Abyss Altar seemed to be ignited, with red light sweeping in all directions, great destruction fluctuations spreading rapidly, and a terrifying aura erupting from the Abyss Altar, as if some great terrifying object was about to awaken—

"Ah!"

"No!" Suddenly, wailing sounds rang out from atop the Abyss Altar; it was those God Kings belonging to the Abyss Divine Court.

They were like ants on a hot pan.

When the power of the Abyss Altar erupted thoroughly.

"Ah!" "Ah!" "Ah!" Those thousands of God Kings, almost without any power to resist, instantly burst and transformed into countless blood mists.

Subsequently, countless blood mists transformed into wisps of blue smoke, also pouring into the altar, turning into nourishment.

Devouring everything!

Just to gestate the most terrifying object.

"Not good!"

"How is this possible?"

"It's the Abyss Will, wanting to use God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing and these God Kings as a medium to descend into this universe." Li Yuan's expression changed instantly.

Perhaps others didn't know.

But the Immortal Divine Palace had gifted him a large amount of secret intelligence, allowing him to know some special means of the Abyss lineage—

The Abyss Will is capable of allowing Abyss lineage powerhouses to descend with its own power.

Like the Abyss Altar, it is exactly like this, but it can only receive a trace of the Abyss Will's power, used for devouring. It still requires an Abyss lineage Sovereign to guard it.

And under normal circumstances, it is extremely difficult for the Abyss Will to project power, especially in the universe's space-time, because it will be blocked by the universe's rules.

Therefore, in the universe's space-time, generally only an Abyss Supreme can manage to lead the Abyss Will to descend, erupting with extremely terrifying strength—that was why Supreme Beihe was ambushed back then.

And what Li Yuan never expected.

At the final moment, seeing no hope left, God Emperor Sovereign Yun Jing would actually burn and sacrifice everything of his three true bodies, taking his life as the price, allowing the power he erupted with to briefly reach the Supreme level—allowing the Abyss Will to descend.

The Abyss Will, taking action personally?

"Kill!"

"Kill!" Li Yuan thought everything through in an instant; his five true bodies dared not hesitate any longer, erupting with the most terrifying attacks, killing toward that brilliantly endless Abyss Altar.

He must destroy the Abyss Altar before the Abyss Will descends thoroughly.

Outside the dark red space-time.

"The Abyss Will is descending?" God Emperor Xinmeng's expression also turned cold to the extreme.

His voice was very soft, yet it rang out in the depths of every God Emperor's heart simultaneously: "Everyone, the worst-case scenario I anticipated has appeared."

"The moment that decides the fate of the Universe Realm has arrived."
