Chapter 132: Earth's Dao Orthodoxy!

Hunyan finished speaking, and a profound, mysterious aura emanated from his whole body, as if he and this heaven and earth had merged into one.

But the next moment, the aura on Hunyan's body changed again, becoming violent, becoming…… as if even heaven and earth did not recognize it, as if…… he had turned into a madman who knew only slaughter.

"Ye Chen, I have opened the nearby space for you; hide inside first. I will lose consciousness for three seconds, and after three seconds my body will automatically seek you."

"Hunyan, no!"

Ye Chen roared, to him Hunyan was both teacher and friend; he could not accept that Hunyan would fall into a long slumber because of him.

"Ye Chen, now is not the time to be sentimental; I have merely consumed my origin, I will not die, and by following you and borrowing your strength I have regained a bit of power—I won't die from this, I will only fall asleep."

"Hunyan..."

Ye Chen shouted Hunyan's name, his fists clenched tight, his bones creaking under his grip.

In the next instant, he suddenly turned around, "I'll wait for you inside."

"Alright."

Hunyan finished speaking, and a heaven‑shaking explosion suddenly boomed!

Boom—

The powerful explosion caused the approaching Esteemed Founder's footsteps to stop instantly.

He looked in horror at the direction of the blast, even feeling relieved that his speed was not fast; if he had been a bit quicker, he would have been swept into the explosion, and whether he would live or die would then be uncertain.

"That brat must be dead for sure; with such a terrifying explosion, even I would struggle to survive."

Esteemed Founder said with a pounding heart, he now recalled that if his speed had been a little greater he would have been caught in the blast's aftermath, and he still felt a lingering fear.

As it turned out, he could truly be that close to death.

Suddenly, Esteemed Founder felt a power that made his very soul tremble.

"What…… is this…… I, I……"

After sensing that power, Esteemed Founder could not even utter a complete sentence.

Fear lingered in his heart.

In an instant, Esteemed Founder's heart raced wildly, for he felt that power lock onto him, and almost immediately his body became immobile.

"Senior…… senior…… I, I……"

But before Esteemed Founder could finish his words, that dangerous aura that had locked onto his terrifying power suddenly vanished, disappearing without a trace, not even a hint remaining.

At this moment, Esteemed Founder stood in mid‑air, gasping heavily.

"Who exactly is that senior, a master from where?"

This was Esteemed Founder's doubt at the moment, and just as he wondered, a voice suddenly rang out from the sky; it was precisely that voice that frightened him so much he almost lost his footing in mid‑air.

"Too bad there isn't enough time."

Upon hearing that voice, Esteemed Founder almost went weak in the legs and would have sat down in mid‑air.

If the speaker's words were true, the voice's owner had been preparing to kill him, but lacked the time to act; thus it meant that just now…… he had truly been on the brink of death!

Only now did he realize how many strange and deceptive aspects this planet possessed.

And just then, another anomaly occurred.

The planet was undergoing a tremendous tremor, and even experts as strong as those at the God Transformation stage were affected.

"What's going on!?"

Esteemed Founder did not understand this sudden change, but in an instant he felt an unbreakable force of law, and a spiritual power so dense it was almost substantive!

"How is this possible!?"

Esteemed Founder sensed this change, and a sense of crisis suddenly arose in his heart.

He hesitated not at all, and swiftly fled the planet.

But just as he was about to escape, a heaven‑shaking, earth‑trembling voice slowly echoed from between heaven and earth.

"Qingxu Zi of Kunlun Mountain invites all fellow Daoists to join me in death."

As that voice fell, Esteemed Founder was killed instantly, and the experts outside Xingkong likewise died in great numbers in an instant.

The experts outside Xingkong were now fleeing in panic, and even just moments before they had no idea what had happened.

"Today, whoever offends China shall die!"

Following Qingxu Zi's voice, large numbers of God Transformation and Crossing Tribulation experts shot up into the sky.

Their auras were all overwhelmingly powerful!

At this moment, the surviving people of China, upon seeing them, were all overcome with joy to tears; these days they had suffered humiliation too great to bear.

Those foreign experts had never regarded them as human, engaging in burning, killing, looting—doing all of it—and the Chinese people hated them to the core.

As for the other people on Earth, many had already died in the early stages of the anomaly.

They had taken the wrong path, pursuing the way of supernatural ability, unaware that such ability was left behind by Esteemed Founder and contained a great fatal flaw; cultivating it for long inevitably leads to death.

At this moment, the surviving Chinese people looked hopefully at those cultivators soaring into the sky, their eyes no longer holding any fear or dread.

Because, the orthodox Dao of Earth…… has appeared!

At this moment, Qingxu Zi on Kunlun Mountain lifted his head to gaze at the starry sky; his eyes were very plain, yet immeasurably deep.

"That little brat has disappeared, and thanks to him breaking the seal, we were able to emerge this early."

He said this, then stepped into the void.

"What China has lost shall be reclaimed by our generation!"

Qingxu Zi finished speaking, and his form vanished into the void.

……

In the depths of Xingkong, a faint soul slowly surfaced; if Ye Chen were here he would surely recognize the person, for this is none other than Esteemed Founder, who was just slain by Qingxu Zi's hand—and he is not dead yet!

"Damn it, this planet is truly too strange; if we want to completely take it over, we must cooperate with the people of the Holy Land, or join forces with several other great clans."

Esteemed Founder said this, dragging his severely wounded body, step by step toward the deeper reaches of Xingkong.

……

【Earth Dao lineage emerges, planetary spiritual aura revival ends, the great Huaxia era arrives, the degenerate Dharma era is imminent.】

【Warfare is your only choice.】

【Step upon the Great Dao, open up the mortal world, achieve the status of a mortal-world immortal!】

The system's voice repeatedly sounded in Ye Chen's mind, but at this moment Ye Chen had no mind to care about these; he felt the muddy eye between his brows no longer active, and the anger in his heart rose to its peak.

If it weren't for the muddy eye's several timely critical strikes, he could not have grown this fast.

To him, the muddy eye had long been an indispensable partner.

But now, the muddy eye fell into a deep sleep in order to save him.

"Esteemed Founder, I will surely kill you! I will exterminate your clan!"

Ye Chen said each word and sentence, his voice filled with anger.

And just then, the system's voice suddenly sounded again.

【You mistakenly entered spacetime turbulence; under those circumstances, you should have appeared in a desolate place, but due to a massive explosion, the laws became chaotic, and you were swept into spacetime turbulence.】

【Spacetime turbulence is extremely dangerous, but correspondingly, it also holds great opportunity.】

【Issue mission, find the spacetime where the Reincarnation Immortal King resides.】

After the system finished speaking, Ye Chen's heart trembled incessantly.
