Chapter 213

This black shadow is exactly one of the most powerful existences among the primordial god-kings, the Primordial Black Emperor.

However, this is a fragment of himself from a period of time 100,000 years ago that he split off, sealed within this small cycle of reincarnation by the Dao of Time and Space; even if he perishes, it will not affect his true self.

Gazing at the somewhat familiar figure before him, the Black Emperor's originally lofty and indifferent demeanor vanished, and he spoke with a hint of uncertain surprise: "Fuxi, you are merely an acquired spirit, long since deceased; how could you still appear here?"

As an innate god-demon born at the dawn of the universe, the Black Emperor naturally recognized at once the figure before him—the Xihuang, Fuxi, who had once suppressed him.

After the Fire Era collapsed, the innate god-demons once again ruled the universe, freely devouring acquired spirits; how blissful that time was.

It was precisely this Fuxi before him who rose to power, founded the Fuxi clan, suppressed and sealed these primordial god-kings of theirs, and inaugurated the splendidly glorious Earth Era.

Even if they were not considered immortal innate god-demons capable of rebirth in their own primordial holy lands upon death, they would likely have been completely slain by this Fuxi.

What the Black Emperor did not expect was that he would actually encounter this former formidable foe again within this sealed time‑space cycle of reincarnation.

His thoughts turned, but soon the Black Emperor detected a change in the vital energy within Fuxi's body before him.

"Imperial Spirit power."

A tone of astonishment sounded from the Black Emperor's mouth, his eyes flashing with a hint of realization, and he instinctively said: "It turns out he came here by borrowing someone else's body."

Having said that, the Black Emperor's lingering fear dissipated, and he once again assumed his lofty, indifferent demeanor.

If Fuxi's true self were present here, the Black Emperor might still feel a degree of wariness.

But the opponent's physical body had long since perished; what remains here is merely a trifling Imperial Spirit power, not even comparable to an ordinary Emperor realm—what does he have to fear?

"Ah"

A sigh sounded, and Feng Yi slightly shook his head, speaking casually: "Back then we ought to have completely slain you primordial god-kings; then my Fuxi clan would not be in this predicament today."

"Hmph, brazen nonsense!"

Seeing that this Fuxi before him was merely an Imperial Spirit occupying another's flesh, yet adopting an aloof attitude as if he were an ant that could be crushed at will, the Black Emperor's anger flared and he sneered: "We innate god-demons are immortal; to think you could annihilate us with just yourself is laughable."

Having said that, the Black Emperor stepped forward, his body swelling and bulging, instantly becoming immensely towering.

At this moment, the Black Emperor's semblance of a figure is actually a black shadow composed of boundless darkness, a shadow imprinted on the back of the universe.

"Fuxi, if your Imperial Spirit were hiding in the Void Realm, guarded by the many Imperial Spirits of Yanzhi and Fuxi, this Emperor could do nothing to you; but I never expected you would dare leave the Void Realm and confront this Emperor with merely a trifling Imperial Spirit!"

Having said that, the Black Emperor's rear shuddered, his ink‑black cloak billowing, causing the entire starry sky to crumble along with it.

"Today this Emperor shall let you, the source of the Fuxi lineage, have your soul and spirit utterly scattered, so that the Fuxi clan shall forever become history."

Having said that, the Black Emperor looked down upon the former formidable foe who had once suppressed him, feeling an indescribable sensation in his heart.

Back then, before that opponent, I could only hide like a mouse, yet in the end he still found me and directly subdued me.

But now, the opponent's race has been sealed by me, and his Imperial Spirit is to be exterminated by me—how exhilarating.

This is the advantage that the endless‑lifespan, near‑immortal innate god‑demons hold over acquired spirits.

Even if their strength is lacking, they can lurk and wear the opponent down to death.

Watch you raise a lofty building, watch you feast your guests, watch your building collapse.

Yet the innate god‑demons can sit and watch the world's storms.

The innate god‑demons are the true masters of the universe!

On the other side, Feng Yi gazed calmly at the now immensely towering black shadow before him, speaking blandly: "What does an Imperial Spirit matter? I once suppressed you; how much have you progressed since then?"

"Arrogant!"

Seeing Fuxi still adopt an attitude of not taking him seriously, the Black Emperor spoke coldly: "If it weren't for Nüwa joining you in executing the Dragon‑Snake Combined Strike, you, a mere minor Emperor realm, would think you could stand against this Emperor?"

"Not to mention that you now have only a trifling Imperial Spirit left; even at your peak, without Nüwa by your side, this Emperor would not fear you!"

Having said that, the Black Emperor spread his arms, as if embracing the entire universe.

"Today this Emperor will let you know that the times are changing, and this Emperor is no longer what he once was!"

Hum

The instant his words fell, boundless darkness enveloped the starry sky and surged swiftly toward Feng Yi's direction.

Wherever the darkness passed, everything was devoured, as if even space and time ceased to exist.

This is the power of the Great Dao formed in accordance with the universe's dark Great Dao by the innate, representing the universe's dark aspect.

"Haha, Fuxi, your age has long passed; become part of the darkness!"

A hearty laugh rang out, and the Black Emperor extended a pitch‑black giant palm, like a dark canopy, directly descending upon Feng Yi.

At this moment, the Black Emperor felt a sense of exhilaration.

"Hundreds of thousands of years have passed, yet you remain unchanged, having made no progress at all; indeed, the innate god‑demons' strength is great, but they are also constrained by the Great Dao, their growth potential far inferior to that of acquired spirits!"

A faint voice sounded, echoing at the Black Emperor's side, causing his spiritual sense to tremble violently and a sudden unease to rise in his heart.

At this moment, an uncontrolled image surfaced in his mind of the time when he was suppressed by Fuxi and nearly slain.

"Impossible, how could a mere trifling Imperial Spirit"

Clang!

Before the Black Emperor's thought had fully settled, a universe‑shaking sword‑chant rang out, followed by a killing intent that made hearts tremble.

A sword‑light blazing crimson like blood suddenly flared, bearing a terrifying killing intent, directly cleaving the boundless darkness.

At the same time, a pure, brilliant white sword‑light followed, shattering the darkness outright and restoring brightness to the starry sky.

The power contained in these two sword‑lights is not particularly formidable, merely reaching the Emperor realm level, yet it evoked in the Black Emperor's heart an indescribable quiver of dread.

"Is Fuxi's cultivated Great Dao not the Way of Wind?"

A hint of doubt arose in his heart, but faced with these two terrifying sword‑lights, the Black Emperor had no time to react much; his black palm instantly shifted direction and came down upon him.

Clang!

But just then, the void grew slightly hazy, and a faint, illusory cyan sword‑light rose, causing everything around to stagnate, even the Black Emperor's movements slowing a little.

At the same time, the vast starry sky suddenly became illusory, as if in an instant there existed an endless world, endless space, and within every space a black sword‑light fell.

"Time‑Space Killing Sword."

The Black Emperor's heart jolted, his eyes flashing with a hint of astonishment and doubt, his unease growing ever stronger.

Because between the Paoxi before him and the Paoxi he knew, whether it was the divine abilities displayed or his own Great Dao, they seemed completely different.

However, being able to split his own thousand years of time and form them into five independent spacetimes, Heidi's mastery of the Spacetime Great Dao was also beyond ordinary comparison.

Sensing the threat of the Spacetime Killing Sword, the operation of his Great Dao instantly broke free from the Spacetime Killing Sword's restriction.

Boundless darkness rose, sweeping toward the Spacetime Killing Sword, and Heidi's palm also collided with the pure white and crimson sword lights slashing down at him.

Boom boom boom

A boundless roar sounded, and the vast energy wave swept outward; wherever it passed, the starry sky shattered and all things turned to ash.

In the starry sky, boundless darkness was continually decomposed by the four sword lights, re-evolving into earth, water, wind, and fire, then returning to the cosmic starry sky, transforming into various energies, while Heidi's towering figure continually retreated.

Hmm!

After an unknown amount of time, a muffled grunt sounded, and Heidi instantly retreated.

At the same time, he looked at the distant, calm Paoxi who did not move a step, and a flash of anger appeared in his eyes as he shouted: "Paoxi, today I will let you know that we innate gods and demons are the true masters of the universe!"

Dong!

Before his words fell, a deep, muffled drum sound suddenly rang out, as if coming from the immeasurably deep end of time.

In an instant, a mysterious force swept across heaven and earth, the void stagnated, the Great Dao ceased to exist, and all things dispersed.

Swish swish swish

The four sword lights also seemed affected by the drum sound, instantly returned, and stood firm in the starry sky.

Feng Yi's figure stood calmly in the distance, his deep gaze fixed on Heidi's figure.

As the drum sound rang, Feng Yi felt a familiar power envelop him, his cultivation dissipated, the Great Dao ceased to exist, as if he directly returned to the mortal realm.

He, who understood the original work, naturally knew what this power was.

Exactly Qiyuan Shenwang's Myriad Heavens No Dao!

Qiyuan Shenwang was born at the origin of the universe, wielding the two opposing Great Daos of origin and ending, and the Myriad Heavens No Dao is the manifestation of the ending Great Dao that he wields.

Heidi was not only an innate god and demon, but also a disciple of this Qiyuan Shenwang, thus also mastering the Myriad Heavens No Dao divine ability.

"Qiyuan Shenwang, Ending Great Dao"

This thought arose in his mind, and Feng Yi suddenly developed great interest in Qiyuan Shenwang.

On the other side, Heidi stood firm in the starry sky; although his stature remained tall, he appeared somewhat embarrassed.

He coldly gazed at the distant Paoxi's calm and casual demeanor, and his anger grew stronger.

I had thought that the present Paoxi retained only the Imperial Spirit, and I could avenge the past shame and suppress the opponent.

Yet I never imagined that, upon facing this strong foe again, only the opponent of the Imperial Spirit remained, yet they seemed even stronger than when their fleshly body was still alive back then—this utterly defies reason.

However, I am no longer the same as before!

This thought rose in his mind, the Black Emperor's qi shifted, and he angrily shouted: 'Heavenly Dao's Absence.'

Thud

The drum sounded again, bearing the terrifying power of the annihilation of all things, making the entire universe seem as if it would follow into extinction, with all laws ceasing to exist.

'Fuxi, sink together with the Heavenly Dao's Absence!'

Upon hearing the Black Emperor's roar, Feng Yi turned his gaze with a calm expression, yet he did not look at him, but instead gazed into the void before him, and said lightly:

'Black Emperor, the wind is rising!'

The moment his words fell, the newly transformed technique within Feng Yi's body naturally activated, transforming into an extremely profound power.

'What.'

Upon hearing Feng Yi's words, the Black Emperor's heart involuntarily stirred with a hint of doubt, not understanding the other's meaning.

But the next moment, an indescribable sense of crisis suddenly surged upon his heart; the Black Emperor's spiritual awareness shuddered violently, and his very soul trembled uncontrollably.

Whoosh

A wisp of clear wind appeared in the void, gently blowing toward the Black Emperor.

The clear wind seemed powerless, yet wherever it passed, everything turned to nothingness.

Swish swish swish

The four sword lights of red, azure, black, and white instantly merged into that wisp of clear wind, returning to the origin, transforming into the power of the four primordial phenomena, causing the clear wind to become a vast, majestic momentum that carries the trend of letting the heavens return to ruin and letting the epoch perish.

'Danger!'

A strong sense of crisis enveloped his mind, the Black Emperor's eyes revealed fear that could not be concealed, and he exerted all his strength to execute the Heavenly Dao's Absence.

Boom!

The drum had just sounded, but the next moment, a gale as if the Great Dao of Termination had manifested swept in, and the drum sound transformed from the Heavenly Dao's Absence seemed to encounter a higher-level same-origin force, directly turning into nothingness.

Moreover, the Black Emperor had no strength to resist at all, and was directly enveloped by the power of termination.

After an unknown amount of time, the starry sky regained its calm, and the Black Emperor's silhouette still stood firm in the starry sky, yet with a faint illusory feeling.

He stared blankly at the distant figure and asked, 'How could you possess the Heavenly Dao's Absence?'

Feng Yi calmly looked at him and said lightly, 'This is not the Heavenly Dao's Absence, but another application of the Great Dao of Termination.'

Indeed, it is the Great Dao of Termination!

A glimmer of realization appeared in the Black Emperor's eyes, and then, somewhat curiously, he asked, 'What is the name of this divine ability?'

Countless sword lights flowed in the depths of Feng Yi's eyes, and he spoke with a somewhat ethereal tone:

'Wind rises from the tip of the duckweed.'

The name of this divine ability is.

'Duckweed!'

The moment his words fell, as if triggering some special change, the sword lights in the depths of Feng Yi's eyes instantly merged, condensing into an illusory long sword resembling a lotus leaf.

And on the hilt of that illusory long sword were written two ancient, simple characters:

'Duckweed!'

Hearing this, Heidi nodded and said, "Qingping? What a nice name!"

The moment his words fell, he completely turned into nothingness, as if he had never existed in the world.
