"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...
As a father, Chen Zhan wanted to handle everything himself so that his children and younger generations wouldn't have to worry.
The existence of the despicable Heavenly Dao is something even a Heaven-defying King-level being cannot defeat.
Chen Zhan, having witnessed and deeply admired the many millennia-long schemes and sacrifices of figures like Dugu Baitian, the Demon Lord, and the Ghost Lord, has also experienced over the past ten thousand years.
"Grandpa, Grandma, we want to be like Father and Mother! To become Zhan Tian's trump card!"
Chen Nan's children, Long'er, Kongkong, Yiyi, Suosuo, and Xuanxuan, also entered Chen Zhan's inner world and stayed with their grandparents. Chen Zhan, with his superior abilities, helped his grandchildren master the supreme magic of the ancient, heaven-defying totem!
Meanwhile, Meng Ke'er, Tantai Xuan, and the other seven women were merging elsewhere, gaining a deeper understanding of the Great Dao Laws.
Their relationship with Chen Nan was too special; they were husband and wife, had children together, but were also enemies.
"Good children." Mother Chen stroked the cheeks of her five children with great joy.
Chen Zhan was silent for a moment. If he could, he really longed to take on everything himself!
We won't affect our descendants or cause them any trouble.
"My strength is still insufficient!"
"There must be another realm above the Heaven-Defying King level!"
"However, I haven't figured it out yet. The Demon Lord, the Ghost Lord, and Dugu Baitian should be the same. But the Purple Thunder Sword Ancestor... perhaps he has already realized it?!"
In a picturesque valley with clear waters and lush mountains, a terrifying aura emanated, rising and falling erratically.
Meng Ke'er, Tantai Xuan, Long Wu, Nalan Ruoshui, Li Ruolan, Chu Yu, and Chu Yue—the seven women are all present, constantly trying to achieve a perfect fusion and recreate the strongest magic power of the Seven Heavenly Maidens of antiquity!
The seven fragments of the Seven Heavenly Maidens' remnant souls are all within their true spirits.
Through this connection, one can transcend time and space and gain extraordinary cultivation!
However, their own level of cultivation is far from reaching the heaven-defying level; even the strongest, Tantai Xuan, is still far from it.
Although the consciousness of the Seven Absolute Heavenly Maidens was directly resolved with Chen Nan's help, it can be guaranteed that my true self will not be lost.
But suddenly, with their power increasing a thousandfold, they were bound to feel uncomfortable!
It's very difficult to master perfectly!
However, the urgent task of conquering the heavens urgently requires the birth of something extraordinary!
Otherwise, these seven distinct women would never have merged into one.
During this period, they also sensed Chen Nan's promotion and reacted in different ways.
"A god-level being? He's actually in the lead again..." Tantai Xuan and Li Ruolan's expressions darkened.
"He has overcome his inner conflict." Long Wu and Nalan Ruoshui were overjoyed for Chen Nan.
Meng Ke'er and Chu Yue had very complicated emotions.
Chu Yu, as always, mocked Chen Nan: "Even if you're a Heaven-Defying King-level expert, a scoundrel is still a scoundrel!"
Chu Yue said softly, "Xiao Yu, don't swear." She was Chu Yu's older sister.
"If we join forces, our individual talents will collide and spark, and we will surely be able to inherit the legacy of the Seven Absolute Heavenly Maidens! There is even a glimmer of hope that we can reach the level of the Heaven-Defying King!" Li Ruolan refused to admit defeat, her eyes flashing with fighting spirit.
“That makes sense.” Tantai Xuan agreed, eagerly hoping to reach the pinnacle of cultivation.
"We have no objection to fighting against the evil Heavenly Dao." Long Wu, Nalan Ruoshui, Meng Ke'er, and Chu Yue, despite their different personalities, all shared the same attitude at this moment.
No one can stand idly by and watch the evil forces of Heaven unleash a great calamity!
"Hoo." The fusion of the seven women immediately entered its final stage. Their figures all disappeared, leaving only a graceful and beautiful silhouette within the dense divine light.
At the same time, the heaven-defying power they attracted became increasingly terrifying, suppressing all paths.
"Ah, so this is your life with that scoundrel Chen Nan? It sounds quite interesting."
Suddenly, Chu Yu's voice rang out, filled with curiosity.
"Xiao Yu, don't look around!" Chu Yue's usually gentle voice carried a hint of embarrassment and annoyance.
"It's all that wretched Chen Nan's fault!" Meng Ke'er and Tantai Xuan were both embarrassed and blamed Chen Nan in unison.
"This is what you and Chen Nan did..." Long Wu and Nalan Ruoshui were also shy.
"Stop talking!" Meng Ke'er screamed. The scene of her and Chen Nan being "red-faced" was seen by the other girls. Even though they all had many entanglements with Chen Nan, and their love and hate were intertwined, it was still hard for them to accept.
"So what? Meng Ke'er, Tantai Xuan, you're too weak. You actually let Chen Nan gain the upper hand. You've really disgraced us!" Li Ruolan sneered, still dissatisfied.
"..." Meng Ke'er, Tantai Xuan, Long Wu, Nalan Ruoshui, Chu Yue.
Is this something worth discussing?
However, they had clearly forgotten about Chu Yu and were eager to discuss the matter with Li Ruolan.
"I have to say, Chen Nan's body is actually quite good, even though he's a scoundrel," Chu Yu remarked.
"Xiao Yu!" Chu Yue couldn't help but shout.
Just as the seven women were causing a ruckus, on the mainland, in another field, flowers were in full bloom.
When Ren Wang Yuxin noticed Chen Nan's attainment of enlightenment, a smile appeared on her face.
"Cao Ya's Great Dao..." The soul fire in the Netherworld Ghost Lord's eye sockets flickered.
When did Cao Ya comprehend the Dharma of Reincarnation? Wasn't he the "Purple Thunder Sword Ancestor"?
"This is a good thing." Yu Xin smiled slightly and said, "After ten thousand years, the Purple Thunder Sword Ancestor, Chen Nan, and Chen Nan's father have become three more Heaven-Defying Kings, which increases our chances of winning the battle against the heavens."
In ancient times, only three people—Dugu Baitian, the Demon Lord, and the Ghost Lord—had reached this level.
The Human King, the Seven Absolute Heavenly Maidens, the Ancestor of the Stars, the God of Time and Space, and Chu Xiangyu are all only at the Heaven-Defying level.
Starry Sky Ancient War Soul is also a newly emerged, heaven-defying powerhouse.
Basically, among the remaining extraordinary beings after Chen Nan attained enlightenment, the one with the best chance of breaking through to become a king is still Human King Yu Xin! Then comes the Seven Absolute Heavenly Maidens!
The rest of us are lagging behind these two celestial beauties! —Or rather, the eight of us?
“That’s true.” The Ghost Lord smiled. There was no need to care about Cao Ya’s mystery. As long as it was clear that his stance was against the Evil Heavenly Dao, that was enough.
Inside a demonic cave teeming with demonic energy, the Demon Lord was discussing something with his younger brother, the Demon Master, and the three people he had taken as disciples—the Great Demon, the Nameless God-Demon, and the Hidden Dragon—who were the reincarnations of his son.
He felt uneasy towards his master in this life and his father in his previous life—the Demon Lord, whether he was a great demon, an unnamed god or a hidden dragon. He felt a mix of master-disciple and father-son feelings, as well as deep resentment.
"Big Brother!" The Demon Master exclaimed with joy. How many millennia had it been? Finally, they were reunited!
"Father (Master)." The Great Demon addressed the Demon Lord as Father, while the Nameless God and Demon, and the Hidden Dragon, still called him Master.
The Demon Lord's face was deathly still, except for a hint of relief that flickered in his eyes.
"Since the decision has been made to embark on the path to heaven, there are some things I must say," the Demon Lord began.
"In reality, I don't have much of a chance of winning this battle. In the end, in order to gain the greatest power, I will be ruthless and ungrateful. I will not only kill my brothers, sons, and disciples, but also myself. In the midst of endless emotional turmoil, I will do it all for a moment of sublimation!"
The Demon Lord's voice was filled with a deep and terrifying demonic intent, and rife with madness.
Amidst the successive destructions of the evil Heavenly Way, which of the powerful figures in the [Tomb of Gods] universe is not tainted with a bit of madness?
"We only ask that we kill the evil Heavenly Dao!" This was the four people's true thought.
If sacrificing themselves could increase their chances of winning, they would definitely die on the spot.
"Haha, good, this is the true lineage of my eternal demon lord!" The demon lord laughed, a hint of sorrow in his eyes that vanished in an instant.
"By the way, your sister, the Seven Absolute Heavenly Maidens..." The Demon Master suddenly looked at Qianlong.
"There shouldn't be any problem," Qianlong replied, and couldn't help but laugh.
I have no memory of my past life, but I have relatives and friends in this life.
The younger sister, Long Wu, was very concerned. She was one of the seven bodies of the Seven Absolute Heavenly Maidens and maintained her own identity.
Although he has a good relationship with Chen Nan, Qian Long is also dissatisfied with him in this regard, as he is too promiscuous.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, the Demon Lord raised his eyes, looked into the distance, and a thoughtful expression flashed across his face.
"Chen Nan has broken through to the Heaven-Defying King level?!" The other four exclaimed in surprise.
The Demon Lord, however, had considered that Cao Ya's power seemed to involve reincarnation.
Chen Nan has broken through to the next realm, and currently, he is roughly on par with Dugu Baitian, the Ghost Lord, and Chen Zhan...
Cao Ya seems to be a step ahead?
Under the suppression of the evil Heavenly Dao, he reached the sixth star, becoming a Heaven-defying King-level, an ancient demon lord, and incomparably powerful!
Similarly, cultivation in the [Divine Tomb] universe places great emphasis on divine thought!
The physical body has perished, not just once or twice! To be able to revive, traverse ten thousand years of time and space, cross the six realms of reincarnation, and be reborn endlessly... the resilience of the soul is essential!
As long as a sliver of spiritual consciousness remains, it means a glimmer of hope!
Naturally, his spiritual awareness is powerful, and his ability to sense heroes from all walks of life is first-rate among those of the same level!
Although he hadn't fought Cao Ya yet, the Demon Lord had a premonition of it.
He believed that his perception could not be wrong!
Indeed, Cao Ya's self-created "Purple Thunder Sword Technique" was on par with the Demon Lord and the others; however, the combined combat power of the various systems surpassed it.
"What a wonderful thing!" The Demon Lord grinned, eager for more powerful individuals!
All the other heroes, including the Time God and the Ancient Star Soul, were happy.
Who wouldn't want their comrades to become even more powerful in the upcoming battle against the heavens?!
"Buzz." After advancing in rank, Chen Nan concealed his aura and stopped radiating it throughout the universe.
Cao Ya noticed many divine senses but did not stop them, allowing them to observe.
Having reached the level of a Heaven-Defying King, Chen Nan couldn't possibly be unaware of it. Since the person involved wasn't angry, why would he need to play the villain? Besides, he understood Chen Nan's meaning; this action could boost morale!
"Hmm, Master is here." Cao Ya smiled slightly.
"Crack~~" The void split open one after the other, and the old tomb keeper and Xuanxuan fell to the left and right respectively.
“Master.” Xuanxuan stepped forward, tears still in her eyes.
The old man guarding the tomb felt a pang of heartache. Xuanxuan was an orphan he had found and raised, teaching her skills. Later, she married Dugu Baitian and lived a happy life with her children. But then the evil Heavenly Dao reappeared, and everything was destroyed. Even after many millennia, they all returned, but Dugu Xiaobai seemed to be gone.
He guessed correctly; Xuanxuan's tears were caused by "Dugu Xiaobai".
However, the "Dugu Xiaobai" has already reappeared, but he has taken the initiative to abandon the past.
Even if Chen Nan wanted to, he couldn't remember.
“Master, Senior Sister.” Cao Ya also went over. The old man who guarded the tomb had guided his cultivation. In a sense, he was the old man’s disciple.
Naturally, Xuanxuan, the "First Ancient Demoness," was his senior sister.
“Yes, in our lineage, you are the youngest, yet you are already the strongest,” the old tomb keeper said with a smile.
Both he and Xuanxuan were at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Rank, just a hair's breadth away from the Heaven-Defying Rank.
Even if the master and disciple suddenly had an epiphany and attained a heaven-defying level, they would still be behind Cao Ya. After all, the opponent was practically a heaven-defying king level being!
"It's all thanks to my master's guidance back then," Cao Ya said with a smile.
Initially, the creation of the "Purple Thunder Sword Technique" was indeed inseparable from the guidance of the old tomb keeper.
Later, they gradually forged their own path and slowly surpassed others.
"Junior Brother's talent is indeed rare throughout history," Xuanxuan praised, though she was also somewhat troubled.
Although she was hailed as "the number one female cultivator below the Human King and the Seven Absolute Heavenly Maidens," she still couldn't see through the final move even after countless millennia.
If I were also a god-defying being, I would wage war against the heavens...
As Xuanxuan thought about it, her gaze fell on Chen Nan, her eyes glistening with tears.
"Senior." Chen Nan opened his mouth, but still addressed him as "Senior."
He also realized that this "first witch" was his mother from his previous life.
"You are excellent, no less than Bai Tian," Xuanxuan said softly, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"I am inferior to the 'First Forbidden God of the Primordial Era'," Chen Nan replied.
He always felt awkward discussing his parents from his past life.
Chen Nan could clearly feel Xuanxuan's loving kindness, which warmed his heart but also made him feel very guilty.
"You...you must survive..." After saying that, Xuanxuan chatted with the old man guarding the tomb and Cao Ya for a few more minutes before returning to the moon.
She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would lose control of herself.
Cao Ya, who already knew, was no longer mentioned. The old tomb keeper, who had been bewildered, had now come to his senses.
"You brat..." The old man guarding the tomb looked Chen Nan up and down, making the other man very uncomfortable.
After a long while, the old man guarding the tomb sighed. This matter was definitely caused by Dugu Baitian and his son Dugu Xiaobai again!
"I'm leaving now." Chen Nan chuckled awkwardly and went to find Chen Zhan, Chen's mother, and the children.
In the end, I will also go to see the "Seven Absolute Heavenly Maidens" and witness that chaotic scene, but unfortunately no outsiders witnessed it.
Cao Ya and the old man guarding the tomb talked about many things. In the middle of the conversation, the Ghost Lord appeared and talked about Dugu Xiaobai. They were both very emotional.
"It's about to begin!" Suddenly, the Ghost Lord raised his head, his soul fire flickering.
"I wonder how many will survive this time?" the old man guarding the tomb sighed.
"This time, we will either achieve a complete victory and utterly destroy the Evil Heavenly Dao, or we will suffer a complete defeat and there will be no new era!" the Ghost Lord said in a low voice, with a resolute intent.
Even the usually playful old man guarding the tomb couldn't help but take it seriously upon hearing this.
"Boom!" The enormous Tai Chi diagram, spinning in the sky, was also a sign.
Tell all experts above the seventh-tier Immortal Martial Realm: The Battle of Heaven is about to begin!
"Bang." Human King Yu Xin shook the Primordial Banner and led the five-colored skeletons into the Divine Demon Diagram.
There were also the Seven Ancient Demon Lords, including Chu Xiangyu and Hei Qi, who led the immortals and gods who followed them and entered the God and Demon Map.
Then there were Time God, Starry Sky Ancient War Soul, Chen Ancestor, Chen Zhan, and others, each leading a group of immortals and gods.
The same applies to the Dugu lineage.
The Seven Heavenly Maidens, having completed their fusion, flew in along with the five children.
Unlike the original timeline, the complete "Seven Absolute Heavenly Maidens" remains unchanged and is not the Six Soul Heavenly Maidens.
"Grandpa Dragon is here!" the Purple-Gold Divine Dragon cried out, and together with his wife, they also took to the heavens.
"No one can escape; we can only fight." Behind them, Old Dragon Kunde sighed and, along with his old friend Qilin, also set out.
There are also evil lords, Western totems, nine-headed heavenly dragons, etc., regardless of whether they are good or evil, they all soar straight up to the sky!
"It's time for us to make our move too," Cao Ya said softly, as he, along with the Ghost Lord and the Tomb Keeper, entered the Divine Demon Map.
This artifact was meticulously crafted by Dugu Baitian and the Demon Lord, precisely to play a significant role in the battle against the heavens!
