"Cao Ya doesn't rely on heaven or earth, he only relies on himself!"
"Cao Ya doesn't have any cheats!"
Facing the countless gods and buddhas, Cao Ya spoke withou...
Chapter 1297 Boundless Divine Might
"Those backup plans have not yet been revealed and cannot be used lightly. The Soul River is unfathomable. Besides this quasi-Supreme being who has appeared, there may be other quasi-Supreme beings, or even true Supreme beings, awakening in the shadows, silently observing and analyzing, waiting for the right opportunity to annihilate all of us!"
Cao Ya thought to himself, the ultimate place of the Soul River is connected to the Ancient Underworld, the Heavenly Emperor's Burial Pit, and the Four Extremes Floating Soil. If an anomaly occurs here, those three regions will surely provide support!
At that time, when the supreme beings of the heavens awaken, even if they are the possessions of the Heavenly Emperor, it will be difficult to protect them all.
After all, there are quite a few Immortal Emperors among the strange races, and the Supreme Being of all Heavens must have a way to directly contact the Evil Land Plateau!
When the supreme beings of all heavens descend, that will be the end of everything. All the things belonging to the Heavenly Emperor will be taken away and given to the mysterious Immortal Emperor to analyze, so as to understand the ancient Heavenly Emperor's Dao and find the flaws and find a way to defeat the enemy.
Because of this concern, neither 963 nor Black Emperor used the Imperial Weapon lightly.
Maintaining secrecy is the only way to deter the mysterious cultivators and preserve the strength of one's own faction.
If the supernatural were to know everything and have no scruples, none of the supreme beings in the heavens would need to worry about falling into the schemes of the ancient Heavenly Emperor, suffering severe injuries, or even dying. In their unbridled state, they would openly launch attacks to seize the Heavenly Emperor's possessions.
Otherwise, why would those spies and traitors in the mortal realm target and attack the First Mountain repeatedly?
It's all about figuring out the First Mountain's secrets, figuring out the Desolate Emperor's backup plan, using mysterious messages to make a great contribution, and earning a reward!
But no matter what, the Holy Prince could sit idly by and watch his own child, who was plunged into darkness before his death, find peace even in death!
Because the Great Ape had already perished and had been refined by this ancient raven for several years, it was extremely bloodthirsty.
We can only hope that the Holy Prince, the White Emperor, Duan De, and the Four Eight Eight will help us, and that the immortals will have the means to provide assistance.
As the Black Emperor pondered, the hidden master of the ultimate Soul River spoke again, addressing the assembled immortals: "From ancient times to the present, has the mortal realm ever won a single victory? Even if they suffered defeats in local battles, in the end, it was still your clan that achieved complete success, ending the era, leaving behind some seeds, and starting a new cycle!"
“Oh right, not yet…” Suddenly, the Holy Prince reached out and grabbed a sleeping figure from the bottom of the nearby River of Souls. It was a monstrous creature with a twisted face and a bloated body, flowing with corpse fluid. It was extremely beautiful, but one could vaguely make out that it was male.
Yes, there must be more than one being in the River of Souls. If a few people appear at the same time, even the remnant spirit of the Holy Prince will be no match for him!
"What kind of monster is that?" Taiyi asked. How could the ancient Holy Emperor have unearthed a creature from the Soul River?
The immortals all came from the same faction, and there was no rise of a rogue cultivator like the Black Emperor. In the past, there were no grudges or entanglements. However, after the White and Dark invasion, they were still able to unite their camp and fight together!
"Whoosh!!!" The Holy Prince pointed his finger at the Great Holy Ape, and from the illusory figure, wisps of divine substance flowed out and poured into the Great Holy Ape's body, cleansing it of its impurities.
"That time, Chu Feng should appear in the River of Souls without any disguise, right?" the Black Emperor muttered to himself, quite looking forward to it. After all, with the help of the stone jar and the residual power of the Pollen Emperor, Chu Feng briefly unleashed his supreme power, sweeping across the heavens with no equal!
"You're not confident yet, but if you kill him, you'll definitely be in trouble?" Four-Eight-Eight said, glancing sideways.
The reason why this person dared to show himself was because he was worried that we might not have Qi Zhen's legacy.
However, Black Emperor, 488, White Emperor, Duan De, and Hua Hua, those few people have this hidden danger.
Therefore, even after seeing his biological father, the Great Ape went mad and wanted to slaughter the creatures behind him, still carrying out the orders given by the ancient raven before its death.
Upon hearing this, the heroes felt a chill in their hearts, sensing that they were safe.
"So why resist so stubbornly? Such obstinacy is like a curse upon your clan. At that time, wealth and all kinds of top resources will be exhausted, and you will have no hope of becoming Huang Zhenhe."
"The creatures of darkness will likely stand by and watch the Holy Prince act." The Black Emperor was on guard, observing the movements deep within the River of Souls, but the mist was so thick that even with my eyes filled with divine light, I couldn't see through it.
"Don't try to sow discord. Those who can get to that place and bravely venture into the Soul River are all heroes with wavering stances and a strong possibility of betrayal!" Li Da retorted.
Certainly, the Holy Prince or Duan De are still at their peak, so there's no guarantee of success. However, our current situation doesn't support such actions, and we're worried about potential problems with the Emperor.
"Boom!" At this moment, the Holy Prince was healing the Great Holy Ape. He threw out his iron rod, which was dazzling with golden light. It pressed down on the Soul River, causing waves to surge. Divine particles were struck in and surrounded by magic, which permeated the immortals!
"The person beneath you has no close karmic connection with him, and is not a relative... If you trace back the history, he did not willingly fall into the River of Souls and betray it to prolong his life. He did step into the Small Universe, and was not a relative when he first became a True Immortal. In his confusion, he fell into the River of Souls and relied on this broken branch of the Immortal Medicine Peach to preserve his remaining thoughts until today."
The first seven people couldn't accept it without such a performance, but the Black Emperor's situation was truly astonishing.
"Perhaps, you also care, as long as Li Da is completely unharmed and something happens to him..." Huang Zhen sighed, that kind of unrequited love always makes people sigh.
Even the most powerful Immortal Kings, who knew little of the world, never became giants until their deaths. And many lesser giants only achieved their goal by yearning for the glory of the Emperor's Path. How much more so for someone like this, whose mere half-body had already surpassed the limits of the King Realm! He was almost unlike any other Quasi-Immortal Emperor!
Moreover, I am not confident that I can overcome the remnants of the Holy Prince, so I am trying to win people's hearts.
Although I am just a regret, destroying the mark of a powerful figure is not difficult for me.
Even Si Ba Ba, Bai Huang, Duan De, and Hua Hua all turned to look at Hei Huang with surprise.
"It's him!" Cao Ya saw Li Da and her eyes immediately filled with tears. "Back then, you risked your life to break through the realm and weakly proved Xiao Yu, all to prolong your life and wait for the future in the long river of time."
Duan De chuckled and said, "That's because there weren't any monkeys yet. Besides, he and the little white dog..."
Dear friend, whether Li Da is truly dead or not, he certainly hasn't returned yet!
The Black Emperor knows his own family best; the ordinariness of the cycle of reincarnation is the reason I have visual pollution.
"His combat skills are unparalleled among those of the same level!" the Holy Prince praised. Such a formidable character possesses exceptional comprehension and, given ample time, has little chance of defeating the Little Holy Ape!
However, I do not have any such old friends. They fell into the River of Souls. Even if I did not know them, they fell into it voluntarily. They were worth saving. They were killed by the immortals one after another, thus ending the life of such traitors.
"It's you!" Black Emperor exclaimed in surprise. Xiao Zhan remained calm. "I almost forgot that there is still one of Li Da's confidantes in the Soul River."
Duan De raised an eyebrow, indulging his whims, and shouted, "Then let him come out and have a go with me, let's see who's stronger! Who's the real rat crossing the street!"
"Thank you so much, junior." Huang Zhen was extremely grateful. Compared to his own awakening, he was even more delighted by Li Da's return!
Bai Huang, Duan De, and Hua Hua were all relaxed, eagerly watching the Holy Prince move, hoping to sense the life force under the Great Holy Ape!
Bai Huang glanced at him, and Duan De immediately shut up. The broken bell and the wooden spear were their trump cards, which could be revealed to the creatures of Bai An.
And their so-called meager combat strength was also due to their own cultivation...
"We must be careful! We've been negligent in our precautions!" Si Ba Ba reminded them, and all the immortals, as if Black Emperor were special, became wary of the creatures of the Soul River, scanning all directions.
At the same time, the Holy Prince's keen senses also detected that, due to the long battle just now, some divine particles remained in the bodies of the immortals, perhaps without us even realizing it. But as they accumulated, they eventually brewed a terrible consequence!
How to expel the evil spirits after the Great Ape's body has been damaged is a small problem!
Taiyi frowned. The Celestial King had appeared, and the immortals had joined forces. There was still a chance to fight; there was bound to be a comeback...
"There's a very small chance that such a scene will occur!" the Black Emperor said. Knowing the origins of the Soul River, I thought that was a valid concern.
"His friend, or..." The Holy Prince shook his hairy hand, which shone with light, removing the male monster's vital particles and allowing it to gradually awaken.
"It's a real shame. They're going to die in vain, just like the young cultivators of the past. At least they wouldn't have a few lonely ghosts, barely clinging to life, hiding in the myriad realms like rats in the street," Zhun Youxia mocked.
As the Holy Prince pondered, his grief overwhelmed him, and his confused mind grew increasingly muddled. His divine sense spread out and he sensed the anomaly in the ultimate realm of the Soul River, causing his brow to furrow.
"Know that those who understand the times are the heroes; those who struggle in their death throes will only suffer the tragic fate of losing their wives and children, and the deaths of all their relatives and friends!"
"Where are you? And who is he...? Thank you for saving me, junior!" The male monster awoke, initially bewildered, but quickly came to his senses and thanked the Holy Prince, realizing that it was that junior cultivator who had saved him.
And this bunch of peach branches suddenly bloomed, crystal clear and dazzling, with an incomparable brilliance, and a faint fragrance that was refreshing and delightful.
And now that we meet again, it is indeed so.
Because its place of slumber is within the battlefield, and for unknown reasons it has never awakened, it is known that the River of Souls, which has been silent for billions of years, has also erupted in a bloody battle!
The Black Emperor sighed. His power was still sufficient. Even if he personally killed a top-tier Immortal King, so what?
"A confidante, Li Da, it's hardest to resist the kindness of a beautiful woman," Tai Yi teased. Of all those present, who could see Cao Ya's feelings for Li Da?
Although the strange creature kept winning, it suffered no casualties each time, while countless small repairmen died.
Apart from us, even the old kings of various races in the mortal realm were all unintentionally disturbed soul matter and were annihilated by the Holy Prince.
Between the Supreme Immortal King and the Quasi-Below Realm, there are eight major realms: Giant, Lower Giant, and Emperor Light Immortal King.
"With the Holy Prince's obsession, for now, it's best to use the Four Eight Eights and the White Emperor to unleash their trump cards!" the Black Emperor thought to himself. The Holy Prince is terrifying beyond measure; even if it's just a remnant of his will, it can still be used to attack with considerable force!
"Even if it means exhausting all your accumulated obsession and all your remaining energy, you must save the child!"
"Child..." the Holy Prince roared in anguish, suppressing the ancient raven mark, and with a flick of his hand, shattered it instantly.
The only consolation is that we do have countermeasures.
There is a way. This place is the River of Souls, one of the lairs of the White and Dark creatures. The immortals of the mortal realm have absolutely no advantage in terms of timing and location when they come here.
The sight of "The Holy Emperor is in danger!" boosted morale, and the immortals couldn't help but praise him, further enhancing their admiration for the Holy Emperor's son!
Everyone could clearly see that the red corpse hair on the Great Sage Ape's body was becoming duller and gradually increasing, with some even falling off and drifting in the void. As the Holy Prince's divine power traveled, the red hair was crushed into ash, leaving no hidden danger!
"Peerless beauty, Li Da, shall we go down and acknowledge her?" the Black Emperor laughed.
"Well, it's all your own doing, and you didn't rely on anyone else, so what's wrong with that?" Black Emperor muttered to himself.
My response was nothing but a hearty laugh.
The Holy Prince said, "Since Li Da is a degenerate who has launched an attack and is hesitant in his stance, and he has not gained any merit from killing the white and dark creatures, it is worth my help."
"It's you... Cao Ya!" Li Da exclaimed excitedly. Before being treated by the Holy Prince, the male monster had returned to its original appearance. Even though his face was still twisted and hideous, it was extremely ugly, yet radiant and dazzling!
Breaking through to the realm of kings is already a problem for him; even at the peak of the True Immortal realm, the Yu Jiu realm can still defeat top-tier Immortal Kings!
In the era when the ancient Qi Zhen was born, all the heavens, down to the lowest level, were beheaded. This was also the safest time!
As a quasi-lower level being in the Soul River, this monster has lived for countless epochs and witnessed the deaths of many colleagues. Among them were quasi-lower level beings of the same rank, as well as weaker true lower level beings and quasi-immortal emperors!
"Huh?" Li Da looked at the male monster with a furrowed brow. For some reason, he sensed a strange feeling from beneath the man, as if it were an old acquaintance.
The real difficulty lies in the fact that the Great Sage Ape has been in the River of Souls for countless epochs. Its soul has perished, its body is incomplete, and everything from its skin and flesh to its bone marrow and tendons has been completely covered by these particles!
Now that a character with whom he has no ordinary causal connection has been discovered, the Holy Prince will naturally stand aside and treat it as mere knowledge.
The area around the man's chest was not yet covered with peach blossoms, but rather with buds that were about to bloom, and it was quite dull.
"You've been corrupted too?" The immortals were shocked and filled with fear. "Some of us might be tempted to fall into depravity."
Furthermore, the Black Emperor is ambiguous; there are actually no undercover agents lurking within the Soul River, as all the heavens have already been filled.
The path of cultivation becomes increasingly difficult with each step backward, especially in the early stages. No matter how talented or outstanding a person is, they will be trapped by various bottlenecks, struggling to survive and even facing certain setbacks.
The defiled substance in your body was removed by the Holy Prince. Compared to the Great Holy Ape, this man's years of pollution are still only a fraction of what they were, making his recovery naturally much more difficult.
I am confident, but I am not arrogant or overconfident. Besides, the Soul River is extremely weak and should not be underestimated.
Furthermore, Li Da is also at the peak of True Immortal. The Holy Prince believes that there is little hope for him to break through to become a King. Even his previous breakthrough as a Lesser Holy Ape is not entirely hopeless.
"Damn, what a coward, he's up to no good," Duan De muttered.
"Buzz..." The Holy Prince waved his hand again, and divine power enveloped and permeated the immortals. Even the soul light and matter were squeezed out and turned to ash and dissipated.
Just now, the Holy Prince saved the immortals and completed the task in one go.
This monster was determined to destroy the Little Holy Ape, but it was willing to be killed by Qi Zhen's trick, thus severing all its chances of survival.
However, everyone speculated that Li Da's feelings for Cao Ya were like those of a brother and sister, and that he also had romantic feelings for her.
This person is clearly indifferent, yet he is also trying to win over the immortals, divide the mortal realm, weaken the strong and the weak, and at worst, unite them.
The man wondered to himself, "Could he be a low-level member of the Eight-Eared Macaque clan in the mortal realm?"
"It's certain that the young master has a quasi-Immortal Emperor... or, if a quasi-Immortal Emperor does appear, we will likely have to show up and launch a counterattack..."
