Everything before seemed like an illusion.

The Fairy of a Hundred Flowers breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Majesty, I have not failed you!"

Li Changzhou looked around and saw that the flowers in everyone's hands had withered and they were covered in sweat, clearly having gone through a tough battle. Now that they saw that they had succeeded, they all smiled.

wrong.

Why can you still laugh?

"What's wrong?" Yang Qinglan looked over.

Yaochi watched him from the side, her eyes showing a hint of doubt and worry.

"Your Majesty." The Fairy of a Hundred Flowers approached, holding the Heavenly Will Ball.

Li Changzhou took the Heavenly Will Ball from her hand—there was a sense of detachment, as if he were watching himself pick up the Heavenly Will Ball.

【Name: Heavenly Will - Emperor's Seal (Fragment)】

[Effect: Upon fusion, one obtains the Great Emperor Seal—a supreme being elevates their will to the level of divine will. It consists of three hand seals, each representing a different power; this seal is one of them.]

[Rating: Stellar to Galaxy-level]

"Brother?" Li Qianxia waved in front of him.

Li Changzhou asked her, "Qianxia, ​​why are you crying?"

“Cry?” Li Qianxia looked at him in bewilderment. “I stopped crying when I was three years old. I’m a tough woman.”

Li Changzhou pressed the Heavenly Will Ball into his brow.

A collective gasp rippled through the crowd.

A figure like Li Changzhou must be aiming for the top ten strongest Heavenly Wills. Although the [Emperor Seal] is powerful, before seeing the top ten strongest Heavenly Wills, it's impossible to say who is stronger or weaker.

Moreover... he was talking to Li Qianxia one moment and then merged with the will of heaven the next. What's going on?

Unlike the shrine maiden who merged with the will of heaven, there was no reaction whatsoever.

Li Changzhou's strength did not improve; he only learned a hand seal—"My Fate Takes the Place of Heaven's Mandate: The Decisive Strike" seal.

This hand seal is very strange. It is not difficult at all, but to perform it successfully depends on chance. For those with a spiritual seed, it is one in a million for human immortals and earth immortals, one in ten thousand for heavenly seed, and one in a hundred percent for saints.

Once successful, what you intended to accomplish when making the hand seal will inevitably be accomplished.

However, the same thing can only be used once.

This is an unparalleled magic seal that rivals the creation of heaven and earth!

Seeing that Li Changzhou had merged with the will of heaven but his strength had not increased, the others were all surprised and puzzled.

"We lost, but we also won by a small margin... Is this what it means to act on behalf of Heaven?" Li Changzhou laughed heartily.

Everyone looked at him in confusion, wondering what had happened.

Did the 'Black Hand' ever intend to use this seal to become the 'Victor'? But he lost to Heaven and Earth, achieving only a minor victory and leaving behind something behind?

Li Changzhou ignored them.

He formed a mudra with his hands called the Great Emperor Seal, but it was actually a black hand seal.

"Little Martial Saint, revive me! I'll sacrifice my life for destiny, for what's done is done!"

The teleportation vortex unfolded, and he reached out and grabbed the coffin of the Little Martial Saint from Earth, then opened the coffin lid.

"Cough... cough!" The little martial saint opened his eyes.

"What?!" The Supreme True Demon and the others' eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

"Could it be that destiny is on my side?" Li Changzhou found it hard to believe. He had only tried, but he had unexpectedly stumbled upon a success rate with only one in a million chance.

“No,” he said again. “Heaven and earth are ruthless, treating all things as straw dogs. All living beings are equal. It’s not that destiny is in my hands; it’s that I have won against destiny.”

He's been acting strangely ever since he neutralized the killing intent of the Great Emperor's Seal. Now he's muttering to himself, and even if the Little Martial Saint were to be resurrected, it wouldn't be able to divert everyone's attention from him.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Li Qianxia subconsciously reached out and grabbed his arm.

Chang'e handed Yang Qinglan a pill: "This is the Qingyue Heart Pill, which can cure the madness of immortals."

Yang Qinglan: "...Calm down."

This rebuke finally calmed Li Changzhou's chaotic mind. It wasn't that he was of poor character or crazy; it was just a side effect of traveling through time and meeting a sage.

That black mist wasn't a real saint, but merely a wisp of the saint's will placed upon the "what's done is done" situation. Yet, even just a wisp of will was enough to drive a celestial being mad.

Just like how the remains of the 'Prophet Saint' were transformed into the 'Library', anyone who glances into the abyss will turn into a monster.

Li Changzhou's cultivation level was only Earth Immortal. The symptoms he displayed were only mental confusion and emotional excitement. He used the "It's a fait accompli" technique at the Earth Immortal level in a muddled manner, attempting to revive the Little Martial Saint. This was all because of the Primordial Divine Body and the Black Mist.

The memories of the others were directly erased by the dark forces, otherwise they would all have gone insane.

"Brother?" Li Qianxia asked again.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Li Changzhou's voice calmed down, and he felt a sense of relief.

The "What's done is done" tactic can only be used once. At the Earth Immortal realm, there's only a one in a million chance of using it, and he just happened to run into it, directly reviving the Little Martial Saint.

"Something happened that we don't know about?" Yaochi asked him thoughtfully.

"I'll tell you later." Li Changzhou was still organizing his thoughts. "Let's continue to see what fate has in store."

There are also four divine decrees.

This period is a good time to sort out the mess.

Who exactly is the mastermind? What is their relationship with him?
