Chapter 195
My elder brother Shichen, you possess the bearing of the Great Dao!
You scum, even if it is Resurrect Pangu, what can you do to me?
I, fear nothing!
Voom!!!
At this moment, waves of Time Force diffused from the depths of the endless void; wherever they passed, the void froze, and even the Great Dao came to a halt, as if everything had stopped functioning at this very moment.
Everyone seemed to sense it, all turning their gazes toward the source of the Time fluctuations, where they saw a towering figure, as if supporting the operation of the myriad realms, step by step emerging from the depths of the void.
He is... Shichen!
"My elder brother Shichen has arrived; you are finished!"
Yang Mei's eyes showed joy, and he immediately spoke.
Voom!!!
One step, as if the distance were vast yet near, as if shrinking the earth into inches, as if crossing boundless space and traversing vast territories; in an instant, Shichen had appeared before everyone.
"Yang Mei, you..."
Zhang Zui opened his mouth, Shichen was about to say something, but then he saw Resurrect Pangu in the crowd.
Then, there was no then.
Even his cold expression could not be maintained; horror appeared on his face, his scalp began to tingle, and he instinctively wanted to flee.
"My elder brother, do not panic; even if Resurrect Pangu has revived, he cannot possess much strength. Do not forget how difficult it is for us to restore our cultivation base; the strongest among those present is Supreme Hongjun, the spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao."
"As the spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao, if he were not the strongest, how could he hold such a station? He is merely a Jin Xian of the Golden Immortal Realm; what can the others do? How much higher could they possibly be!"
Guessing Shichen's thoughts, Yang Mei immediately spoke.
Upon hearing this, Shichen thought it over and agreed it made sense; his expression immediately softened slightly.
"What exactly is going on?"
Frowning, Shichen asked.
"Then you must ask your sworn younger brother."
Resurrect Pangu said calmly.
Shichen knew his sworn younger brother's nature well; was he showing off again?
A thoughtful expression appeared on his face; Shichen activated the Great Dao of Time to trace back the information from the past here, and in an instant, all the circumstances were fully understood by Shichen.
"..."
Shichen.
You deserve to die; you truly deserve to die.
Wasn't it better to live peacefully? Why did you have to jump out and court death, why did you have to show off? Now look, you've ended up in such a situation; Shichen felt his head throbbing with pain.
Your cultivation base has not yet returned to its peak, so why did you break your seclusion? Didn't you see that I have been hiding in the depths of the temporal turbulence and breaking my seclusion all along?
"Yang Mei, remember this; if there is a next time, this seat will not bother with you again."
Shichen said through gritted teeth.
To this, Yang Mei perfunctorily replied with a few sounds.
Fine, anyway, you always say this; if there is truly trouble, you will still appear, so what's there to fear? Just listen and let it pass; it's nothing major.
"Everyone, Yang Mei is my brother; can you grant me a favor? We will not set foot in Honghuang again."
"Resurrect Pangu, we were once beings of the same era; now that Honghuang has been born, our karmic ties are settled, and we are at least somewhat friends; can you let us leave?"
Taking a deep breath, Shichen swept his gaze over the crowd, then looked at Resurrect Pangu and said in a heavy voice.
"Shichen, why are you so polite? We are so strong that we could sweep them away directly; we can just fight our way out; what is there to fear?"
Yang Mei was displeased.
If you say it like that, it damages my aura; I called you over to bring reinforcements and show off, not to grovel; if I do this, how can I save face?
"Shut up!"
Shichen said in a bad mood.
He was not as simple-minded and brainless as Yang Mei; the situation before him was somewhat strange; if he was not mistaken, Resurrect Pangu did not seem to be the leader?
That made it all the more intriguing.
Although Shichen did not think he would have any major problems, and indeed, as Yang Mei said, he could suppress everyone present, Shichen still possessed the necessary caution and prudence.
This matter was Yang Mei's fault in the first place; admit the mistake, soften your stance, withdraw first, and then discuss; there is no need to escalate further; it is not good for anyone.
"Do not ask me; I am merely an observer of the play."
Resurrect Pangu shook his head and said.
"Look, Shichen, look; I told you so; Resurrect Pangu's cultivation base must not have recovered much; as the Creator God, he is not even the leader of Honghuang; we can absolutely sweep them away!"
"It is also time for Honghuang to know the might of my Shichen; oh right, and your Shichen's might too!"
Yang Mei's eyes lit up, and he immediately spoke.
"..."
Shichen's head throbbed with pain.
"..."
The corners of Resurrect Pangu's mouth twitched uncontrollably.
"Leave? You probably cannot leave; if you had not appeared, it would have been fine, but since you have appeared, whether it is us beings of Honghuang or the Heavenly Dao, we will not allow such a time bomb as you to remain hidden in the chaos."
Supreme Hongjun slowly spoke.
"Fellow Daoist, what do you mean by this? Although we are unwilling to fight you, that does not mean we lack the ability to fight you."
"I am Shichen, the Chaos Demon God Shichen; you beings born after the separation of heaven and earth may not know my might and strength, but Resurrect Pangu does."
"Do not force me to act, or we will all end up in an unpleasant situation; if you let me and Yang Mei leave, then let it be; otherwise, do not blame me for being unkind."
Shichen's gaze sharpened as he spoke coldly.
He did not wish to fight, but if the situation demanded it, Shichen would not mind fighting.
"Everyone, let us strike together. Let these old elders know the might of our Honghuang. They must not leave; otherwise, it would be unfavorable for all of us. Everyone understands this."
Supreme Hongjun no longer replied to Shichen's words, but slowly spoke.
"Good."
"Agreed."
"Precisely so."
"It should be thus."
"We obey the Dao Ancestor's decree."
The assembled Honghuang titans nodded in agreement.
They naturally understood Supreme Hongjun's meaning. Now that Honghuang had embarked on the Gao Zhilu, it was no longer what it once was. Allowing two powerful Chaos Demon Gods to hide within the Chaos would clearly serve no one's interests.
Even if they harbored no ill intentions now, there was no guarantee they wouldn't later. At such a critical juncture, gambling was impossible; at the very least, these two must remain under their watchful eyes to ensure peace of mind.
This was the current landscape and game of Honghuang.
"It seems Yang Mei and I have indeed been underestimated by all of you. Very well, since it is so, let us have a battle."
Shichen narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke indifferently.
"Did you see, Shichen? I said we must strike. It was not that we refused to act. Now, even if we do strike, our dignity is already compromised."
Yang Mei spoke displeased. Though he spoke thus, his movements did not slow; he had already begun to summon the power of the Space Dao.
Play was play, and jest was jest. Even if Yang Mei was somewhat naive, that did not mean he was truly a Bai Chi. He understood the weight of things clearly; otherwise, he could not have survived until now.
"Shut up!"
Veins on Shichen's forehead bulged.
If it were not for you, you fool, insisting on rushing over to show off, how could such a situation arise? You not only feel no shame but take pride in it? Shichen was so enraged his nose nearly twisted.
Taking a deep breath, obscure Time Dao power began to rise from Shichen's body. His aura had clearly reached... the Chaos-Derived Dao Golden Immortal Realm!
Even more than Yang Mei had recovered!
This naturally did not mean his injuries were lighter than Yang Mei's; rather, since he governed the Time Dao, it was only natural that his injury recovery speed would be slightly faster.
Buzz... Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
Yang Mei and Shichen mobilized their auras and Dao fruits. Supreme Hongjun and the others naturally did the same. In an instant, terrifying auras erupted from Supreme Hongjun and the others.
It was as if they had reached the ultimate sublimation, as if they had leaped endlessly. If Wang Yang swept through, it seemed like tides surging. A vast and supreme power radiated in all directions, causing the void to tremble.
Even Honghuang, whose status had already been elevated, seemed unable to bear the might of so many titans, appearing as if it were on the verge of collapse.
