Chapter 302: The Dark Progenitor Reverses Time and Space (Three-in-One, Please Subscribe)
Boom!
A heaven-shaking pressure, awe-inspiring to the universe, accompanied by a vast, boundless life force as thick as the sea.
A bewitching heart flew out from the Demon Emperor Tomb, straight into the clouds!
That heart hung silently in the Void, continuously releasing pressure; ordinary cultivators, upon sensing it, could not help but want to prostrate themselves on the ground and kowtow in worship.
Behind the heart, endless blood energy formed a Chaos phantom, and within the phantom, a green aura stepped through time and space.
"The last Great Emperor of the Eastern Wasteland in legend, Qingdi!"
"Is this the Demon Emperor? Truly peerless, with a spirit that swallows mountains and rivers."
"Demon Emperor!"
The Demon Race present, upon seeing the phantom, knelt on the ground one after another.
Yan Ruyu flew out from the Demon Emperor Tomb, and seeing the phantom behind the Demon Emperor Heart, tears welled up in her eyes.
At this moment, all factions—the Ji Family, Yaoguang Sacred Land, Dayan Sacred Land, and Lingxu Grotto-Heaven—began to scramble for the Demon Emperor Heart.
As for the previous gentleman's agreement, it was useless in the face of such immense profit.
Yan Ruyu, as the Demon Emperor Descendant, bore the brunt of the struggle to seize the Demon Emperor Heart.
But how could Yaoguang Sacred Land allow Yan Ruyu to obtain the Demon Emperor Heart? With Yan Ruyu's talent, if she obtained the heart, she would likely become a Demon Saint in less than a hundred years, or perhaps even stronger!
From the rear of Yaoguang Sacred Land, a withered old man made his move, the aura erupting from his body causing the heavens and earth to lose their color.
He merely struck with a casual palm, yet it contained the power of heaven and earth, covering a stretch of the Void, as if to suppress everything.
"Immortal Platform Realm."
Yan Ruyu's expression was grave; she had not expected Yaoguang Sacred Land to actually send a Immortal Platform powerhouse.
The Immortal Platform Realm is different from the Wheel and Sea, Dao Palace, Four Extremities, and Dragon Transformation; it is a qualitative transformation and sublimation.
An existence at this level can instantly kill those in the Dragon Transformation Realm, and they are the foundation of great sects.
"This Demon Emperor Heart, our Ji Family wants it too."
From the rear of the Ji Family, a middle-aged man in brocade robes walked out. He walked through the Void with every step, his body radiating mysterious Void power, as if he had merged with the entire space; this was also a Immortal Platform powerhouse.
Not only the Ji Family, but Zifu Sacred Land also brought out a Immortal Platform, as did Dayan Sacred Land and Zifu Sacred Land.
As for the Sect Leader of Lingxu Grotto-Heaven, he could only smile bitterly and stare helplessly; they were merely a small sect attached to a Sacred Land and had no qualifications to snatch the Demon Emperor Heart.
Ye Fan came out of the tomb clutching a handful of magic treasures, and seeing this formation, he couldn't help but say:
"A Immortal Platform powerhouse, terrifying indeed. I wonder if Sister Yan can hold her own."
Originally, the emergence of the Demon Emperor Tomb would not have attracted so many powerhouses, but Ye Fan had secretly spread the news in advance, drawing the attention of major factions. With preparations made, they naturally would not send small fry to fight for the treasure.
At this moment, Ye Fan, Wang Wu, Han Li, Bai Xiaochun, and the others had made a full harvest and returned to the side of Xuanzang and the others.
"This is the Demon Emperor Heart? It doesn't look that strong; anyone can snatch it? Though the life force is indeed vast," said Wang Wu.
"Indeed. Looking at it this way, the Demon Race seems quite weak; Yan Ruyu is just a lone tree unable to support the building," said Ye Fan.
"Wahaha, I want to stew the Demon Emperor Heart," Xiao Shi said with gleaming eyes.
"The Demon Emperor Heart is a treasure left by the Demon Emperor for his descendants, with the killing intent refined away, leaving only the purest energy and techniques. Moreover, this is not the original heart, but one that has been modified, so naturally, it cannot be compared to a true Great Emperor's heart," said Xuanzang.
With his discernment, he could see that although this Demon Emperor Heart had powerful pressure, it was devoid of killing intent.
Otherwise, how could others be allowed to lay a finger on the heart of a true Great Emperor?
"So that's how it is. Xuan Ge is still the observant one. We've all read the Script, why didn't I notice these details?" said Ye Fan.
"What now? Are we snatching it or not?" said Wang Wu.
"Let me consider it," said Ye Fan.
"Everyone, do you truly insist on fighting me for the Demon Emperor Heart? This is originally an object of my Demon Race, and I am the Demon Emperor Descendant," said Yan Ruyu.
"Junior, although you are the Demon Emperor Descendant, since ancient times, treasures belong to those capable of taking them," said the Immortal Platform powerhouse of Yaoguang Sacred Land.
"Shameless," Qin Yao cursed in anger.
"Presumptuous."
The Yaoguang Sacred Land Immortal Platform powerhouse merely glared at Qin Yao; Qin Yao let out a muffled groan, blood spilling from the corner of her mouth as her spirit was wounded.
Seeing Qin Yao injured, Yan Ruyu's eyes turned cold. She gently raised her jade arm, and green lotuses manifested in the Void, their leaves transforming into peerless Divine Swords that thrust forward.
"A mere trick."
The Yaoguang Sacred Land Elder was disdainful, merely flipping his hand to suppress them, shattering the green lotuses instantly.
"Below the Immortal Platform Realm, all are ants!"
Having said this, the old man did not let the matter rest, transforming into a True Essence Great Hand that grabbed toward Yan Ruyu, intending to teach the Demon Emperor Descendant a lesson.
Yan Ruyu's expression was calm as a magic treasure in the shape of a green lotus appeared in her hand.
This was the Demon Emperor Weapon, the Chaos Green Lotus!
It was just not the genuine article, but a replica.
They had only found the Demon Emperor Heart in the Demon Emperor Tomb earlier and had not seen the Demon Emperor Weapon!
But even as a replica of the Chaos Green Lotus, its might was extremely powerful.
Yan Ruyu prepared to use the Chaos Green Lotus to suppress the enemy!
"Big Sister, I'll come to help you."
At this moment, that fellow Xiao Shi suddenly rushed in front of Yan Ruyu. Xiao Shi swung his arms, his Nine Heavenly Passages appearing behind him, and with a great shout, he cried out:
"Six Paths of Reincarnation Fist!"
Boom!
With a violent energy fluctuation, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Fist imprint in the Void forcibly obliterated the Immortal Platform powerhouse's True Essence Great Hand.
As this scene unfolded, the scene fell into a deathly silence!
A bear child actually blocked and obliterated the attack of a Immortal Platform powerhouse?
This is an Immortal Platform powerhouse!
"Damn, is Xiao Shi this fierce?" Ye Fan said.
"The techniques of your era were all created by Xiao Shi. Don't look at Xiao Shi as being in the Cave Heaven Realm; his combat power absolutely transcends the Cave Heaven, and the Immortal Platform is merely a starting point," Xuanzang said.
The Immortal Platform Realm is divided into nine layers, and the gap between each layer is vast.
"That makes sense," Ye Fan understood immediately.
This Immortal Platform is very strong in his own era, but placed in Xiao Shi's era, it would probably be a mere lackey.
After all, in that era, even a Great Emperor was only at the level of a Human Dao Supreme.
"Which family's prodigy is this Haotian? So powerful."
The Elder of the Ji Family exclaimed in surprise; he had thought it was just a brat, never imagining he would be so powerful.
The two Elders who had knelt earlier felt their state of mind balance out much more now.
Kneeling to a Natural Supreme who can defeat an Immortal Platform—is it shameful? It is not shameful at all!
"So amazing!" Ji Ziyue's expression was one of shock.
"So strong, is he really just a child?" said the Yaoguang Saintess Yao Xi.
The Saint Son of Yaoguang felt complex emotions and suddenly felt immense pressure; how could such a monster appear?
"Damn it." Ji Haoyue was unconvinced.
As the person involved, Yan Ruyu opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, she still said:
"Thank you!"
"Big sister, you're welcome."
"Grandpa Village Chief said, when you see injustice on the road, you shout, and when it's time to act, you act," Xiao Shi said.
Meanwhile, in the future era, above the Heavens Above, on the boundless Highland shrouded by Darkness.
On a blood-stained black altar, several figures stood, their true faces invisible, but their auras were terrifying, shocking the heavens; behind each person, one could see the collapse and destruction of great worlds.
Piles upon piles of lives from several eras had turned into skeletons, no longer countable by numbers; even a mountain of corpses and a river of blood could not describe it.
"My Lord, we failed."
On the altar, a Darkness Race creature prostrated on the ground, speaking to a supreme Darkness existence.
Hearing this, one of the supreme Darkness beings said:
"Changing the past and reshaping the future carries great risk; one moment of carelessness and one will be backlashed, perishing within the Time River."
"My Lord, if we do not kill Ye in the past! In the future, our end..." the Darkness creature said.
Not long ago, an Ancestor had a prophetic dream, encountering in the dream the collapse of the Highland, the destruction of the Heavens, and the end of Darkness!
Three Heavenly Emperors charged toward the Highland, breaking through to a realm even the Ancestors had not reached, and destroyed the Highland.
A dream from this realm cannot be baseless; it is very likely reflecting reality.
In the future space-time, none of the Three Heavenly Emperors can be resisted by a single Darkness Ancestor.
If not for the protection of the Highland, allowing for infinite resurrection, they would have perished long ago.
Since the future can no longer erase the Three Heavenly Emperors, the Darkness Ancestors can only act from the source.
This supreme Darkness being closed his eyes, mysterious auras radiating from his body; threads of congealed time wrapped around him, and his eyes looked down through the Time River at all past space-time.
The timeline was trembling, twisting; it was no longer a straight line, but had sprouted several branches.
He saw the timeline belonging to Ye Fan, which had been interfered with by something, and Ye Fan's future became uncertain in that instant.
"That is... Huang?"
The supreme Darkness being saw Huang in a certain life, a certain time, but it was the young Huang; even more absurdly, the young Huang was together with Ye Fan.
"Who modified the timeline?"
The supreme Darkness being exclaimed in shock; he saw an incredible scene: Huang and Ye in the same era.
One must know that no matter how one backtracked the past before, only Ye Fan rose; it was the era of one person, and there was no appearance of Huang at all.
Not only did this supreme Darkness being see the change in the past, but the other supreme Darkness beings and Ancestors also discovered the clues of the past.
Their hearts stirred; the past had already become an established fact, with the Time River in between, making it hard to change, but now it had changed.
Huang's intrusion gave them a chance to reverse the future!
"Everyone, Heaven helps our Ancestors!"
"What Heaven helps? We are the Heaven of these myriad worlds!"
"Now, regardless of the reason Huang and Ye are together, the Time River has already changed; as long as we act again and destroy Huang and Ye in the past, the future can be changed!"
"The eight Emperors failed last time; who should we send this time?"
A supreme being said; those eight Emperors were all descendants of the Ancestor level, possessing powerful strength.
Unfortunately, because they reversed the Time River, their projections were destroyed by a mysterious force, and then they were backlashed by the Time River, their cultivation falling; they could only remain at the Dao Ancestor level, unable to recover for several eras.
"Why not pay a small price and let the true bodies of the eight Emperors go? Even if they only stay for one breath to destroy Huang and Ye, it is worth it."
"The price is too high; they are all Dao Ancestor-level beings. At the very least, it requires a Road-End Level being to maintain the altar, and it might even cause a Road-End Level being to fall from the Immortal Emperor Fruit Position."
"For the future of the Darkness Race, what is paying a Road-End Level!"
After the several supreme beings discussed, this time they would not send projections of the eight Emperors, but have their true bodies descend directly.
Even if the price was high, they would not hesitate.
Now, Beidou plane, Demon Emperor tomb.
The Immortal Platform Great Ability of the Yaoguang Holy Land had his face disgraced by Shi Hao, and he was immediately furious, shouting:
"Youngster, considering your innate talent and extraordinary bone structure, leave quickly, or this old man will surely suppress you."
"Old man, I respect the old and love the young, but you are clearly not an old man I respect. Also, a group of you bullying a young lady is shameless."
"Grandpa once said, some people are alive, yet they are already dead! Some people are dead, yet they live forever!" Xiao Shi retorted.
"You infuriate me!"
"Yaoguang Sacred Art: Grasping the Sun!"
As the words fell, one could see a terrifying white ball of light condensing in this person's hand, just like a sun coalescing in their palm, dazzling and eye-catching.
"This move has only one purpose: to purify all the turbidity in this mortal world!"
After speaking, they threw the white energy ball; its speed was like lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it was before Xiao Shi.
"I think you are the most turbid one!"
Behind Xiao Shi appeared nine golden, shimmering Cave Heavens; the nine Cave Heavens connected together, releasing a power of Devour that actually swallowed the power of "Grasping the Sun" alive.
"How is this possible!"
The Great Ability of Yaoguang Sacred Land saw this, looking completely dumbfounded.
"Great Strength Bull Demon Fist!"
Just as they were distracted, a voice full of firmness like steel came from behind.
Crack!
This Immortal Platform Great Ability only felt their waist being shattered by a force, nearly breaking in two; their whole body was blasted away a thousand zhang, smashing into the mountains of the Demon Emperor tomb.
Ye Fan walked out and said coldly: "Bullying my brother Xiao Shi, do you think my Human Sacred Body doesn't exist!"
"Ye Laoliu, why are you here?" Shi Hao couldn't help but ask, his eyes bright.
"Good brothers, for a lifetime! Since you've made a move, how could I stand by and watch," Ye Fan said.
The melon-eating rogue cultivators were speechless; the Human Sacred Body had actually sent an Immortal Platform Great Ability flying with one punch.
Although there was an element of a sneak attack, one had to know the gap in their realms; one was in the sky, and the other was in the ground.
Ye Fan felt somewhat lucky; fortunately, Xiao Shi had attracted a large portion of the attention, allowing him to use the extreme speed of the Ground-Folding Golden Light to pull off the sneak attack.
However, one must say, although this old fellow looked like a candle in the wind and was skinny, his bones were truly hard; Ye Fan had blasted over with the might of the Sacred Body, and both his arms were numb.
Taking this opportunity, Yan Ruyu took out a drop of Ancestral Blood to summon the Demon Emperor Heart.
The Demon Emperor Heart sensed the summons of the Demon Emperor bloodline and flew toward Yan Ruyu.
But how could the other forces allow the Demon Emperor Heart to be taken by Yan Ruyu!
The Great Ability of the Ji Family made a move, the Great Ability of Dayan Sacred Land made a move, the Great Ability of Zifu Sacred Land made a move, and suddenly a presence in a black robe appeared among the crowd, their aura clearly also being Immortal Platform!
Behind Yaoguang Sacred Land, yet another Great Ability appeared, and their aura was even stronger than the previous one; it was clearly a Great Ability of the Immortal Second level, a Saint Lord level figure!
If it were the true Demon Emperor Heart, they naturally could not covet it; they wouldn't even be able to withstand a wisp of its aura.
But this Demon Emperor Heart had been modified by Qingdi and had no killing intent, which gave them the opportunity to covet it.
For a time, Yan Ruyu's pressure increased significantly.
Below.
"Hiss!"
Among the crowd, Han Li suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, his brows furrowed, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
"What's going on?"
Xuanzang noticed Han Li's change and asked.
Han Li's brows slightly relaxed as he said:
"Holy Monk Xuanzang, I don't know why, but just now I felt a sudden panic and shortness of breath, my right eye twitched, and I feel like some major event is about to happen."
"? Han Li, what kind of constitution do you have? You can even predict good and bad luck; aren't you being too cautious?" Wang Wu said.
"Not so, it's not just me; my magic treasure, the Small Green Bottle, was also trembling just now, as if it were warning me," Han Li said.
"Could it be that a great disaster is really coming?" Bai Xiaochun trembled.
"With Holy Monk Xuanzang here, it shouldn't be a big problem," Bai Yuekui said.
"..." Xuanzang.
Xuanzang did not underestimate Han Li's warning and immediately circulated the Thirty-Six Heavenly Transformations to deduce the good and bad; his Primordial Spirit left his body, overlooking this heaven and earth, merging with the Time River.
From far away, he saw several black figures gathering at the upstream of time; they were rushing toward the downstream of time, traveling from the future to the past.
And Xuanzang discovered that their auras were very familiar!
They were acquaintances, but not friends!
They were the projections of the eight Great Emperors he had wiped out before, only this time, it was their true bodies.
"It's them."
Xuanzang frowned; he hadn't expected the Darkness Ancestor to be so persistent, insisting on traveling from the future to the past to stir up trouble.
This time, the true bodies were not like the previous projections; if a war were to break out, it would surely turn the world upside down, and might even cause the timeline to collapse, leaving the future, the past, and the present as Nothingness.
Xuanzang immediately returned his Primordial Spirit to his body and transmitted his voice:
"Han Li's premonition was not wrong; a major event is about to happen."
"What event? Holy Monk Xuanzang," Han Li asked.
"What happened?" Wang Wu said.
"You joined the group later, so there are some things you don't know. During a previous entry into Ye Fan's plane, Ye Fan was once besieged by eight Quasi-Immortal Emperors from the future.
Although it was only a wisp of a projection that I wiped out at the time, the strength of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor cannot be underestimated; now they are making a comeback, returning here along the Time River, and this time, their true bodies are descending," Xuanzang said.
"Quasi-Immortal Emperors, and eight of them? Damn," Wang Wu was shocked.
"..." Han Li.
"Once they descend, I fear their auras alone will be enough to annihilate this universe," Xuanzang said.
"Xuanzang, can you handle them?" Wang Wu said.
"For me, it is not much of a problem," Xuanzang said.
Times are different now; he is already at the Half-step Daluo Realm, and with the blessing of the Nameless Ancient Scroll, his overall strength is no weaker than an ordinary Daluo, so dealing with a Quasi-Immortal Emperor is easy.
But once a great battle breaks out, Ye Fan's world might not be able to hold on.
"Then it's nothing," Wang Wu said.
"..., don't be so relaxed. It's not much of a problem for me, but for you all, it would be hell," Xuanzang said.
Although Wang Wu has always been hiding her strength, it is impossible for her to go up against a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.
The Three Thousand Golden Core Method is profound, but it is also a great burden for Wang Wu, and once the Three Thousand Golden Cores are used, I fear it would be a case of damaging oneself by a thousand to injure the enemy by nine hundred and ninety-nine.
"Xuanzang Sheng Seng, why not discuss it in the Chat Group," Han Li said.
At this time, Ye Fan, Xiao Shi, and Yan Ruyu were already locked in battle with the Great Ability of various major forces; Yan Ruyu had the help of the imitation Emperor Weapon, Chaos Green Lotus, and although the power she could unleash was minimal, she could still remain in an invincible position.
Coupled with the help of Ye Fan and Xiao Shi, they advanced step by step.
Moreover, Yan Ruyu was not isolated and without help.
Subsequently, a youth with a slender build, delicate features, and bright eyes crossed the Void and arrived.
This person had a tall and slender build, yet his aura was extremely powerful, his expression arrogant, and his whole body was filled with an air of "I alone am supreme."
"Do you bully my Demon Race for having no one!"
As the voice fell, a terrifying aura swept across the entire Eastern Wasteland, making one's scalp tingle, especially the violent demon Qi released from the man's body.
"Demon Race Great Ability, Peacock King!"
Seeing this person, the expressions of the Yaoguang Holy Land, Ji Family, Dayan Holy Land, Qixia Sect, and other forces changed drastically.
Peacock King, a Demon Race Great Ability and a Zhan Dao King of the Immortal Platform realm, had roamed the Southern Region eight hundred years ago, invincible in his path.
He had even fought the white-clothed God King Jiang Taixu of the same era; although he lost narrowly, Jiang Taixu did not win easily either.
Peacock King stood in the Void, a mysterious phenomenon appearing behind him: an eternal blue sky, with stars dotting the universe, containing the Great Thousand World, almost covering the entire firmament.
This is Peacock King's unique phenomenon, Stars Shining on the Azure Sky!
Previously, Yan Ruyu, Ye Fan, Ji Haoyue, and others had also manifested phenomena, but compared to Peacock King's phenomenon, their auras were more than a notch weaker!
The Bitter Sea phenomenon of the Immortal Platform Realm can even be seen as a Domain, suppressing the strength of those in the same realm; once unleashed, it covers the sky and earth, making oneself king!
"Peacock King, do you want to be enemies with my Yaoguang Holy Land!"
A Saint Lord-level figure from the Yaoguang Holy Land spoke, showing no fear, and even wanted to use the prestige of the Sacred Land to suppress Peacock King.
"You are not even worthy of speaking to this seat!"
Although Peacock King looked slender, his spine was straight, reaching from heaven to earth!
He pointed a finger, and the light of the Five Elements swirled at his fingertip; the Stars Shining on the Azure Sky phenomenon combined with the power of the Five Elements to transform into a divine light that could split heaven and earth!
Whoosh!
That Saint Lord-level Great Ability of the Yaoguang Holy Land could not dodge in time and was directly pierced through the chest, falling from mid-air.
Hiss!
The loose cultivators on the ground gasped in cold air upon seeing this.
Peacock King had not appeared in the world for eight hundred years, yet his strength was still so powerful upon his return!
Killing a Saint Lord with one finger!
"Who else is bullying my Demon Emperor Descendant?"
Peacock King had black hair and black eyes, like a peerless demon god, looking down upon the heroes.
Hearing this, the numerous forces remained silent! They dared not meet his gaze; if they really wanted to perish together, the price to pay would be too great.
The Elder of the Yaoguang Holy Land had an ugly expression, intimidated by Peacock King's pressure and daring not to speak.
Unless the ancestors lying in coffins within the Sacred Land were awakened, they could not deal with Peacock King at all.
Immortal Platform third level, Zhan Dao King!
Before the Ancient Myriad Clans emerged, this was already one of the strongest forces on the surface of Beidou!
There were those stronger than Peacock King in Yaoguang, in the Ji Family, and in the Dayan Holy Land!
But they were basically all old antiques, lying in coffins, sealed in Source Stone, and not easily emerging.
Furthermore, it was not as if the Demon Race's Peacock King did not have Great Ability behind him.
Taking this opportunity, Yan Ruyu successfully retrieved the Demon Emperor Heart, and a heavy stone in her heart fell.
"Many thanks, Uncle Peacock."
Yan Ruyu said, bowing slightly.
"No need for formalities; you are the Demon Emperor Descendant, and it is only right that I protect you," Peacock King said.
"Impressive," Ye Fan praised.
"Wah-ka-ka, I wonder what a peacock tastes like," Xiao Shi said.
Boom!
The Void of Beidou suddenly shattered, heaven and earth lost their light, and Darkness gradually devoured the entire land; the entire starry sky was the same, pitch black, yet those stars were clearly shining, but not a single ray of light flew out.
A river of time and space that pierced through the past and future appeared once again!
Eight Dao Ancestor-level phantoms, whose pressure shook time and space and awed the ages, flickered in and out of existence.
