The center of the divine world, at the edge of the entrance to the Primordial Divine Realm.
As the space twisted violently, seven dark shadows from the abyss passed through the Absolute Divine Realm and appeared in this divine realm that overlooked the present world - it was also the place that Yun Che controlled.
"God... Realm..."
Mo Beichen muttered to himself as he slowly looked around, sensing everything around him. The colors in his pupils were frozen, making it difficult to tell whether he was sad or happy.
"Such low-level and fragile laws, such a foul aura, is this really the place where the gods and demons lived in the past?" Nan Zhaoming's eyes were seven parts excited and three parts contemptuous.
"The High Priest once said that according to the [time wheel of this world], only about a million years should have passed since the extinction of the gods and demons." Mo Beichen closed his eyes and murmured, "In just a million years, it has declined to this point. This shows how despicable the creatures in this world are."
"Such a lowly creature has occupied this land of gods and demons and the inheritance they left behind, enjoying this world without the dust of the abyss. Ha... chuckle..." Nan Zhaoguang muttered, mixed with the sound of gritting teeth: "ridiculous... hateful!"
These words also caused several people to suddenly feel an uncontrollable sense of madness and brutality.
"The Abyss Emperor is merciful and compassionate, and will not tolerate evil fighting, bullying, and indiscriminate killing." Mo Beichen said, "The Abyss is so peaceful now, all thanks to the grace of the Abyss Emperor."
"Although this place is humble, it will also become a place under the control of the Abyss Emperor. I know the anger in your hearts. However, when the Abyss Emperor arrives, what he wants to see is the people here bowing their heads and welcoming him, not the fear and shrinking after the bloodbath."
Mo Beichen squinted his eyes: "This is also the warning of the High Priest. As pioneers who uphold endless glory, we must be remembered in history forever. Therefore, whether for the sake of Emperor Yuan or for ourselves, we should restrain our desires and do what we should do."
Mo Beichen's words made the other six people look stern.
Nan Zhaoming exhaled slightly and said, "The passage has been completed. In another fifty years, the Abyss Emperor will be able to gather the power of all gods to visit this place. Although fifty years is short, this world where the gods are respected can be completely controlled by us in just a few years. Before that, it is not a bad idea to release them appropriately."
"Fifty years? Humph." Mo Beichen snorted coldly: "Have you forgotten the [Black Tide of Time]?"
Nan Zhaoming frowned at first, then his expression changed: "Could it be that..."
Mo Beichen raised his hand, and a black wheel appeared in his palm: "The High Priest will give each batch of pioneers a time wheel to calibrate the time. You can see for yourselves."
The wheel was covered with black lines, glowing with a faint light. Under these black lines, an absolutely independent time domain was sealed.
In the realm of time, a star-like light was moving rapidly, like a firefly swept by a storm.
“Ten… times…” Nan Zhaoming’s expression quickly turned serious: “That means… there are only five years left!?”
With five fingers retracted, the black roulette wheel disappeared from Mo Beichen's hand: "There is another thing, you'd better remember it."
Mo Beichen turned around and faced the six people, his eyes cold and stern, intimidating them: "The High Priest once said something very profound: This place is our homeland, both to Emperor Yuan and to us."
"But the word 'homeland' has a completely different meaning to Emperor Yuan and us."
"So, no matter how much resentment you have in your heart, no matter how lowly this place seems to you, you'd better not...recklessly...do... anything!"
The implication is: Perhaps, Emperor Yuan values this place more than the abyss.
The excitement and hostility that were originally difficult to suppress in the six people were forcibly suppressed, and Nan Zhaoming and Nan Zhaoguang both woke up quickly.
"I understand." Nan Zhaoguang said, "Thank you, Sir Knight, for your advice. Now, this is what we should do next. Please give us your instructions, Sir Knight."
Mo Beichen turned his gaze to the west: "The Absolute Beginning Divine Realm exists independently of the Divine Realm. The dragon I just killed should be the master of the Absolute Beginning Divine Realm, not the Divine Realm."
"According to outsiders, the God Realm respects the Western God Realm as the most respected, and the Western God Realm respects the Dragon Clan, which inherits the bloodline of the Dragon God and calls itself the 'Dragon God Clan'. Their leader is named 'Dragon Emperor', which means the supreme emperor of the God Realm."
"Emperor?"
This word made the six people's faces change, as if they were extremely taboo.
"In the era of Yuanhuang, who dares to call himself emperor?"
"Just this one word... deserves a thousand deaths!" Nan Zhaoguang said angrily.
Mo Beichen continued, "I will go to the Western Regions alone, and the Eastern Region will be left to you."
As he spoke, his figure was already far away in the west. He was so resolute that only his cold voice still shook the hearts of the six people: "What the Emperor wants is to rule, not to purge. Those who submit will live, and those who disobey will die! You are not allowed to kill indiscriminately, and you are not allowed to abuse those who do not resist!"
"As a pioneer, your glory will benefit future generations. Don't let this supreme honor be tainted by dust because of momentary desires!"
“Don’t let me down.”
"Yes!" The six people bowed respectfully towards the west, and did not straighten up until his breath completely disappeared from their perception.
…………
The starry sky is vast and dazzling, without any life-eating abyssal dust or soul-destroying black fog.
For the creatures in the divine world, this is just a world of basic cognition, but it has only existed in Mo Beichen's most beautiful dream in his life.
His figure was moving towards the west, and his speed gradually slowed down inadvertently. He raised his palm, and every inch of space touched by his palm, every breath touched, was so luxurious that he still couldn't fully believe that this was reality, not a dream.
The Western Divine Region was within reach, and the chaotic dragon's breath was clearly reflected in his perception. However, his steps stopped at this moment.
He looked silently at the west, his originally cold eyes gradually losing color, and then his shoulders began to tremble, until his whole body began to shake violently.
“Zhen’er, Long’er…” He spread out his hands, but a hoarse and difficult voice came out from his slightly parted lips: “See, a world without Yuan Chen… a world where not even a little bit of Yuan Chen exists… Your father did not lie to you… Your father did it… Your father really did it… Did you see it…”
"If...if it could have been a few years earlier...if...if..."
There was no one around, he just cried freely and couldn't make a sound.
…………
The vibrations in the space finally began to ease, and then seemed to calm down completely.
But the haze that looms is still so heavy that it is suffocating.
Yun Che was actually not unfamiliar with this kind of spatial vibration.
In the Northern Divine Region, he sacrificed four stars of divine power to open the God Ashes...
In the Southern Divine Region, when the Abyss Cannon unleashed its ancient power...
And, when the entire Primal Chaos was shaken to pieces and the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor returned to the world...
There is no doubt that the power that can cause such spatial shock and heaven's trembling... is a power that transcends the limits of the present world.
It also ruthlessly crushed everyone's last bit of hope.
“Brother Yun Che, what should we do?” Shui Meiyin tightly grasped Yun Che’s wrist with one hand, and with the other hand, she had already grasped the Qiankun Spear between her fingers, with red light flashing and flowing.
“How many times can the Qiankun Thorn use its remaining power to perform long-distance space transfers?” Chi Wuyao asked.
"It depends on the transfer range." Shui Meiyin said urgently: "If it is a small-scale cross-star transfer, it can be carried out continuously for about 20 times. But if it is a large-scale transfer involving many people at one time, the divine power may be exhausted after several times."
However, transferring a planet across star regions as was done in the past is no longer possible.
“…” Chi Wuyao said nothing more, waiting for Yun Che’s response.
Everyone understood that if they really chose to retreat, with Yun Che's personality, he would never choose to leave alone.
Moreover, given his personality and his current status as the Cloud Emperor, is it really possible for him to make this choice?
“Demon Queen,” Yun Che finally spoke, “Send messages to all realms and monitor their movements. If you encounter them, do not resist.”
“I understand.” Chi Wuyao nodded, without any surprise on her face.
“Also, in this state, there are two people who can no longer be trusted.” Yun Che said again.
Chi Wuyao opened her lips and slowly uttered the two names: “Qi Tianli, Cang Shitian.”
"The former has always gone with the flow, and self-preservation is the top priority, so he follows the strong; the latter...if there were no disasters in the abyss, he would be the most loyal dog, but now, he will bite his master and bark!"
The Qilin Realm led by Qi Tianli is now the leader of the Western Regions, and Cang Shitian is the leader of the Order Maintainers, with his minions and networks extending throughout the entire God Realm.
They were all people who were entrusted with important tasks and powers by Chi Wuyao. However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not have predicted this...
“Yun Che!?” Jun Xilei raised her head abruptly: “Do you want to…”
Yun Che calmly looked at her tearful eyes: “When a great disaster befell us, the emperor fled without a fight. This is a shame that can never be washed away. My descendants, and everyone around me, will also…”
“No! No… No!” Jun Xilei shook her head heavily, her knuckles turning pale as she clutched Yun Che’s hand tightly: “Yun Che, listen to me, I watched my master die because of them. My hatred for them is a million times greater than yours.”
"But they are definitely not people you can face head-on. This has nothing to do with dignity or honor! You are not escaping, but retaining your only hope. You... can do it, right?"
“…” Chi Wuyao’s demonic eyes slowly swept over Jun Xilei, and she sighed in her heart: Sure enough, there is another one.
If it weren't so dangerous
In such a desperate situation, with Jun Xilei's extremely arrogant and stubborn character, she might never show such emotions in front of Yun Che.
Facing Little Sword Master, whose emotions had collapsed for the first time, Yun Che’s expression and eyes were calm to a terrifying degree. He looked directly into Jun Xilei’s eyes and said, “Don’t worry, I’m not simply going to die for the so-called dignity of an emperor. Although these people are scary, I…”
He raised his head slightly, his eyes flashing coldly: "It may not mean that we don't have the strength to fight."
“If it is really impossible, then use the Qiankun Thorn’s spatial power to escape.” Chi Wuyao also responded calmly.
“…Yes.” Shui Meiyin nodded gently. She understood that since Yun Che had made his decision and Chi Wuyao was also obedient, it would be useless for her to say anything more.
"Besides, I've just been thinking over and over again. Maybe things won't be as bad as we thought."
Yun Che: “…”
"Why do you say that?" Caizhi asked.
"Outsiders? No, we just returned to where we should be."
Chi Wuyao repeated the words from the shadow of the abyss in Jun Xilei’s memory. Her eyes were filled with demonic light as she slowly spoke, “In the Age of Gods, the power of the gods was too strong. The war between gods would inevitably cause the heavens and the earth to collapse. Even the power that collapsed when a true god fell would cause a catastrophe that would devastate the region. Therefore, according to records, when the gods and demons executed gods and demons who committed unforgivable crimes, they would often choose to send them into the abyss of nothingness and turn them into nothingness, thus avoiding the disaster of the gods.”
"If the Abyss of Nothingness had undergone a mutation a long time ago and was no longer a pure world of destruction, then the true gods and true demons that fell into the Abyss of Nothingness in ancient times might not have been annihilated by the abyss. Instead, some of the gods and demons relied on their powerful divine and demonic bodies to survive in the mutated abyss and passed down from generation to generation."
"That is to say, these people are most likely not born from the Abyss, but are the descendants of gods and demons who committed serious crimes in ancient times."
"The essence of the Abyss is after all a world of annihilation. No matter how strange it is, it is impossible to completely eliminate the existence of the element of annihilation. The 'Abyss Dust' they mentioned many times is probably the power of annihilation that has always existed. The living environment in the Abyss is naturally extremely harsh. Therefore, the creatures in the Abyss have been trying their best to open the passage between the Abyss and the Abyss of Nothingness, so as to arrive at a world without the power of annihilation."
“Today, they succeeded.”
“Although these are just my guesses,” Chi Wuyao said, “the actions and words of those seven people are all very consistent with this.”
“Descendants of ancient gods and demons?” Chi Wuyao’s words immediately reminded them of the many strange words those people had said.
“…” Yun Che’s expression slightly changed. What Chi Wuyao said was exactly the same as what he was thinking.
In ancient times, true gods who committed unforgivable sins were often annihilated in the abyss of nothingness. Even... there is a clear record in the Dragon God Secret Code of the Dragon God Realm that even Mosu, the son of the Heaven-Slaying God Emperor Mo'e, was thrown into the abyss of nothingness by Mo'e himself because of his great sins.
The Abyss of Nothingness, which was supposed to be filled with only destruction and nothingness, gave rise to extremely powerful and terrifying people. Yun Che could not help but think of those True Gods in ancient times who were supposed to have been annihilated.
The abyss that had been silently changing since ancient times finally gave rise to a horrific disaster and erupted today.
Moreover, these are just seven people, just pioneers… just, just the beginning.
"If this place is truly regarded as their homeland and a new place for them to leave the abyss, then they will most likely not trample on and destroy it excessively."
“However,” she looked at Yun Che, “this is a blessing in disguise for the fate of this world, but it is no different for you.”
At this moment, Yun Che turned his body slightly, and a mysterious light flashed in front of him, spreading out a small sound transmission formation.
Qianye Ying'er's voice came from inside:
“Yun Che, what happened to the spatial anomaly just now? I don’t know why, but I always have a lingering feeling of depression.”
“Nothing,” Yun Che said calmly, “There were just a few uninvited guests who showed up in the Absolute Beginning Divine Realm. You stay in the Brahma Emperor Divine Realm, and don’t leave if there’s any unusual movement. I’ll be there soon.”
After he finished speaking, without waiting for Qianye Ying'er to respond, the sound transmission array had already dissipated between his folded fingers.
Yun Che's arms dropped, he looked up at the sky, his eyes as cold as the abyss.
Qingyue, looking back on this life, every step I took to ascend to heaven was on your blood and wounds. You pushed me to the top, but buried yourself in the abyss.
The place where I live is filled with all the sorrow, blood and tears of your life.
How can we allow others to trample on our creations!
Bang--
Yun Che’s black hair suddenly danced, and a terrifying wave of air violently exploded from his body, and the Diyun City suddenly fell into deathly silence.
