Chapter 1478: The Evil of the World (Second update, requesting everything)

This time, Li Zhangsheng and Ning Bizhen's Scepter flew out of their hands, transforming once again into the Ancestral Dragon and Ancestral Phoenix. They entwined with each other, turning into a massive Yin Yang Fish, which rotated slowly like a millstone as it charged toward Source Emperor.

The Yin Yang Fish looked slow, but in reality, it was fast to the extreme.

Source Emperor's sixth sense transmitted a feeling of extreme crisis to him, even more intense than the previous time.

This time, the blood flames on the surface of Source Emperor's Moon God clone surged once again, instantly burning a large amount of blood. Together with the Red Embroidered Ball, it transformed into a shocking blood-colored rainbow, colliding with the Yin Yang Fish.

Boom—

At the moment of contact, the Moon God clone exploded instantly, and the intense shockwave impacted the Yin Yang Fish.

The Yin Yang Fish fluctuated violently. To Source Emperor's surprise, the Yin Yang Fish did not collapse, but instead continued to charge forward.

Without hesitation, the Star God clone threw out the Doushuai Alchemy Furnace.

During its flight, the Doushuai Purple Flame emerged on the surface of the alchemy furnace, and like a meteor crashing into the earth, it smashed fiercely into the Yin Yang Fish.

Bang—

The Doushuai Alchemy Furnace flew back, a dent appearing on its body, but the Yin Yang Fish was also shattered, transforming back into two staves that flew back into the hands of Li Zhangsheng and Ning Bizhen.

Source Emperor could not help but heave a sigh of relief, but the next moment, his heart tightened again.

Although most of Source Emperor's Demon Pets were in a blood-burning state, they were still no match for Li Zhangsheng and his wife; furthermore, with the assistance of the Zhou Tian Star Dou Forbidden Array, they had been beaten back step by step from the very beginning.

In just a few breaths, three screams rang out in quick succession, all belonging to Source Emperor's main Demon Pets.

Aixi pounced on the back of the Darkness Unicorn, biting its neck tightly and refusing to let go, eventually snapping its neck bone.

Adai's giant claws pierced into the chest cavity of the Ancestral Black Dragon, and against the backdrop of the Ancestral Black Dragon's sorrowful Dragon Roar, he tore out a heart that was still beating rhythmically.

The Eight-Clawed Golden Dragon suddenly appeared above the Azure Phoenix, which had been focusing its attention on Kailan, and released a space blade. The Azure Phoenix was caught off guard, and by the time it reacted, it was already too late; its head was cleanly severed by the space blade.

Losing two major clones and three main Demon Pets all at once was extremely disadvantageous for Source Emperor; he was already on the verge of collapse.

It would likely not be long before this battle ended.

At this point, how could Source Emperor not see that he had lost any possibility of escape? He had exhausted all his efforts, but even after bringing out his trump cards, he was still powerless to change the current situation; he had reached the end of his rope.

Unless a Supreme Being came to his rescue, there was simply no possibility of escape, but was that even possible?

Even if Human Emperor or Blood Emperor came to rescue him, they would likely not be willing to voluntarily step into the Zhou Tian Star Dou Forbidden Array.

"King of Ten Thousand Saints, I surrender!"

In utter desperation, Source Emperor chose to surrender, hoping that Li Zhangsheng would spare his life.

"What were you doing earlier!"

Li Zhangsheng did not stop his Demon Pets at all, continuing to let them ravage Source Emperor's Demon Pets.

If Source Emperor had not used his trump card, Li Zhangsheng might have had the possibility of recruiting him, but now it was different; Source Emperor knew how to perform the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones and also possessed an Imitation Order Balance, so he definitely had a close relationship with Human Emperor.

Yet, Source Emperor had chosen to form an alliance with Blood Emperor, which was even more baffling.

According to Li Zhangsheng's estimation, this was likely a part of Human Emperor's scheme, or perhaps an attempt to influence Blood Emperor to stall or kill Li Zhangsheng.

With Source Emperor like this, Li Zhangsheng naturally had no intention of subduing him; it was better to just kill him and let Human Emperor become completely isolated.

While Li Zhangsheng was speaking, the Bird Beak of the Kunpeng pierced through the head of the Nine-Tailed Fire Fox, and red and white matter splattered all over the ground; Source Emperor's Demon Pet count decreased by one again.

Source Emperor was anxious and hurriedly shouted: "King of Ten Thousand Saints, please stop quickly, I am very sincere!"

Source Emperor naturally did not want to die; as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he could even abandon his dignity as a human.

"Why don't you answer a question for me first?"

Source Emperor understood Li Zhangsheng's thoughts, saying: "Are you trying to ask what my relationship is with Human Emperor? I will tell you: he is my father!"

This caused a stir, and Li Zhangsheng and Ning Bizhen looked at each other, both seeing shock in the other's eyes.

Source Emperor was actually Human Emperor's son? Wasn't it rumored that all of Human Emperor's offspring had died young?

Clearly, this rumor was not reliable.

This was hidden far too deeply, and the key was that Source Emperor and Human Emperor looked nothing alike.

To satisfy his curiosity, Li Zhangsheng signaled for his Demon Pets to stop temporarily, though they still surrounded Source Emperor, ready to launch an offensive at any time.

"What else? For instance, what is the deal with the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones?"

"When I was very young, my father secretly sent me away and told the outside world that I had died young. Besides me, my three brothers were also sent away together. We grew up together in a secret corner. After we grew up, my father used the principle of raising poisonous insects to make me and my three brothers kill each other, and in the end, I was lucky enough to win."

Source Emperor paused and continued: "To practice the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones, one must have the Innate Tai Qing, Yu Qing, and Shang Qing Qi as a medium, but these three types of Innate Qi are almost extinct in our world. My father tried everything but could not gather them, so he took a different path and modified it."

When he said this, Source Emperor looked troubled and did not continue.

"How was it modified?"

"King of Ten Thousand Saints, as long as you promise to spare my life, I will tell you!"

Li Zhangsheng feigned hesitation for a moment and said: "Fine!"

"The modification method is very simple: use the bloodline of close relatives as a medium, and you must kill them yourself to replace the three types of Innate Qi. My three brothers were refined into clones by me. However, this was truly not my wish; everything was forced upon me by my father."

By the end, Source Emperor threw the blame onto the absent Human Emperor.

Li Zhangsheng and Ning Bizhen looked at each other in dismay; they had not expected Human Emperor's modified One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones to be so cruel, it simply refreshed their worldview.

"Then what were the materials used for your father's three clones?"

"Before my father attained the Dao, his siblings had already passed away many years ago, so I suspect those must be the three elder brothers who were born before me!"

Li Zhangsheng could not help but sigh; no wonder all of Human Emperor's offspring had 'died young'.

At the same time, Human Emperor's cruelty truly had no bottom line; it could be described as nothing short of evil. Yet, he had hidden it very well in the past. At the time, Li Zhangsheng had once thought that Human Emperor was an emperor who cared for his people and was devoted to the public. Who knew that knowing a person's face did not mean knowing their heart; he was simply a beast in human clothing.

Plotting against Wudi, colluding in secret with the East Sea Dragon Clan to kill Spirit Emperor and severely wounding Wendi, then staging a Blood Sacrifice of his allies, Phoenix Emperor and ten million people, and now adding the cruel murder of his own three offspring, while also making his own son, Source Emperor, repeat this process—he was completely worthy of being called the evil of the world.
