The Ultimate Divine Realm was originally the tenth level of the God-Destroying Realm, but later, there were no more living beings in the abyss who could rely on cultivation to become true gods, and the tenth level of the God-Destroying Realm became the ultimate realm that the creatures in the abyss could reach through cultivation, so it was separated out and named the Ultimate Divine Realm.
The former Ten Realms of Divine Destruction became the Nine Realms of Divine Destruction, and the Ultimate Divine Realm was further divided into nine small realms. The leap over each small realm was approaching the divine path with a mortal body, which seemed within reach, but seemed impossible to truly embark on.
Therefore, although the nine small realms of the Divine Realm are the most difficult to improve, the gap between them is not as huge and obvious as that of other realms.
But it does not mean that it can be easily overcome.
What's more, Yuchi Nanxing, who was at the third level of the Divine Realm, encountered the Ancestral Lin God, who was at the peak of the ninth level of the Divine Realm and had a huge body and the advantage of deep dust!
boom--
boom----
The stars shattered and reunited on his body again and again. Every time he struggled, it was a huge disaster for the world.
Click!
The scales of the Abyss Kirin God finally cracked open to reveal a fairly large crack, but before Yuchi Nanxing could catch his breath, he saw in despair that the crack was healing slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Instead, it was the recoil from his own strength that caused his body and internal organs to rupture and become covered with bloody veins.
Although this was the edge of the sea of fog, the concentration of the abyss dust was far less than that in the depths, but it was still within the range of the sea of fog. The ubiquitous abyss dust suppressed his strength and spiritual perception, but gave the abyss beast endless power and "vitality".
“A pathetic struggle.”
The voice of the Mist Emperor sounded again, as if it was far away in the sky, yet as if it was close at hand. Even Yuchi Nanxing was unable to tell for a moment where the voice came from.
"This emperor has only been awake for a short time, and I have never wanted to kill any living being. Instead, I have saved countless lives from the abyss of death. But you, in order to escape yourself, did not hesitate to slaughter so many innocent people! You are worthy of being a knight from a dirty place, worthy of being the so-called pure land piled up by filth and sin!"
Every word from the Mist Emperor was an extreme blasphemy to the Abyss Knights against their supreme faith. The sudden rage in Yuchi Nanxing's heart almost broke through his head. His body was surging with profound energy, his eyes were shining with stars, and he was about to open his mouth to scold, but as his vision became clear, he suddenly froze there.
The land ahead was covered with scars and gullies, drenched in scarlet blood, and scattered with broken bones and corpses.
His pupils widened and he turned his head sharply… In the distance, the hundreds of thousands of profound practitioners who had followed him were now only less than half of them.
Most of the survivors were injured and looked terrified.
Even Bai Yu had blood on his lips. But he was already far away, but he still approached persistently.
There was a sudden buzzing sound in Yuchi Nanxing's mind - these people had clearly died from the divine power that he had unleashed when he was struggling!
As a knight of the abyss, you should uphold a noble spirit, be just and hate evil, not tolerate filth, and definitely not... kill innocent people indiscriminately!
And today... at this moment...
His heart collapsed in an instant. Yuchi Nanxing's strength, which had been condensed to near the limit, could no longer be released and instead quickly dissipated.
At this moment, the Abyss Kirin God, who had been standing quietly like a mountain, suddenly flashed a deep and strange light in his eyes, and the overwhelming destructive power around his body suddenly surged towards the giant tail and exploded mercilessly on Yuchi Nanxing's body.
Boom——
It was as if thousands of thunders overlapped and exploded in an instant... because that was the sound of the bones of the God breaking.
"Nanxing!!" Bai Yu cried out in horror.
The Abyss Beasts in his cognition had no consciousness, and naturally would not have any scheming. But... this Abyss Kirin God, which was far more powerful than him, had caught his momentary weakness with incredible precision and dealt him a nearly fatal blow.
At that moment, he felt as if his bones and marrow were shattered, his internal organs burst, and his soul sea was rumbling.
BANG!!
With a loud bang, his broken body was smashed to the ground by the Abyss Kirin God. However, he was at the Ultimate God level after all, and his consciousness and strength recovered very quickly. The idea of counterattack was formed the moment his body fell... However, his strength had just surged, and a heavy force like the sky had already overturned and overturned.
boom----
The Qilin claws of the Abyss Kirin God have stepped heavily on Yuchi Nanxing's body.
Countless cracks appeared on the earth, the longest of which extended all the way to Xuanmo City, hundreds of miles away.
All the nearby mysterious practitioners were knocked over in the air and flew away into the distance.
The Qilin's claws were raised, and under the claws, Yuchi Nanxing's body was broken and blood-stained. However, this was not the end of Yuchi Nanxing's nightmare, but just the beginning...
Boom! !
The Qilin's claw struck down for the second time, directly hitting Yuchi Nanxing's head.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom—
Every trampling of the claws of the Abyss Kirin God had the power to destroy the sky and overturn the sea. At this moment, it was like a madman, madly trampling on Yuchi Nanxing's body, crushing his already broken bones even more thoroughly, and ruthlessly dragging his life and soul into the real abyss of death.
Boom boom boom boom——
To those nearby profound practitioners, every strike of the Qilin's claws was like the world turning upside down. They seemed to be in an irresistible dimensional storm, bleeding from all seven orifices due to the shock. However, the screams that should have been continuous were completely drowned out by the thunderous roar.
Only Bai Yu was still struggling forward in the shaking space.
"Sir Knight, don't... go over there... ugh!" His follower knight tried to dissuade him, but was blown away by the space storm.
“Nanxing! Wu Huang… stop… stop!!”
"If you dare to kill the Abyss Knight... Pure Land will fight you to the death!"
In his endless fear and terror, he actually shouted out words that were extremely unworthy of the Pure Land: "Fight until death."
boom----
The claws of the Kirin God fell again, but when it was raised, it did not fall down again, but hung high above Yuchi Nanxing, and the huge Kirin body remained still there.
The calamity that had lasted for a long time also gradually stopped as it became quiet. A hundred miles away, each of the profound practitioners managed to stabilize their bodies in a desperate situation, but all of them were covered in wounds and their expressions were filled with endless fear.
Yuchi Nanxing was lying on the ground, his silver armor had already shattered into pieces, and even the mysterious light on it had completely disappeared. His body was trembling slightly, and he could faintly groan in pain.
After all, he was at the ultimate level of God, and one of the thirty-six commanders of the Abyss Knights. Even though he was trampled by the Abyss Kirin God dozens of times, he did not die.
"Knight of the Abyss." The voice of the Mist Emperor came from the unknown depths of the sea of fog: "This emperor never wants to kill any living being. But you have offended this emperor, and you deserve this punishment! Now, this emperor will grant you a chance. Bow down and make amends to this emperor, and this emperor will grant you and your companions to leave."
“Heh… heh…” Even though he was already extremely weak, Yuchi Nanxing still let out an unyielding low laugh: “In this world… the only one who is worthy of my bowing to… is Emperor Yuan!”
"There is an Emperor Yuan in this world, and you... are also worthy of being called an Emperor!"
"Nanxing!" Bai Yu murmured worriedly... He knew Yuchi Nanxing's will and beliefs very well, and was terrified that he would completely anger the Mist Emperor and really die here.
The Mist Emperor was not angry, but only had a cold and faint sneer: "Haha, it turns out that a foolish spirit will never know how foolish he is."
"Knight of the Abyss, I ask you, who in this world can be the emperor? Who is worthy of being the emperor?"
Yuchi Nanxing raised his head slightly and answered without hesitation: "Only... Yuan Huang!"
The voice of the Mist Emperor sounded, becoming endless and distant: "A person who is worthy of being the Emperor of this world may have helped the world out of danger, or may have been able to do what the spirits of the world cannot."
"Knight of the Abyss, answer this emperor, who made this world of endless disasters and endless abyss dust have a place to survive, and built this world of the abyss step by step?"
Yuchi Nanxing gnashed his teeth and said with a strong will the answer that everyone in the abyss knew: "Of course it's the Abyss Emperor! Without the Abyss Emperor, there would be no world!"
The Mist Emperor's voice released endless contempt and ridicule, and also carried a hint of sadness: "Foolish cognition, pathetic creature. Then answer me, why is the abyss dust of this world all concentrated in the sea of fog, instead of swallowing up all the living places and the so-called pure land?"
Yuchi Nanxing still answered with difficulty and tenacity: "The core of the fog sea... the pull of the original death abyss..."
“Hahahaha!” As if he had heard some huge joke, the Mist Emperor laughed more wildly and sarcastically than ever before: “So, this is what you think. So this is what is called the Pure Land and the Abyss Knight!”
The laughter suddenly stopped, and his voice suddenly became heavy, like a demonic sound that struck the depths of everyone's soul: "The ancient abyss is an eternal world of death. Only this emperor and the abyss beast have become the people of death in this world of death."
'Millions of years ago, more and more creatures landed in this world. This emperor could not bear to see them struggle and perish in despair, leaving behind screams and despair again and again, so he used all the power of the abyss to pull all the abyss dust in this world to the center until it merged into this sea of fog, leaving a thin abyss dust for the creatures that fell into this world, enough to create a hopeful space of endless vitality.'
"After that, the power of the abyss was greatly depleted, and I fell into a long sleep. I woke up more than a year ago. And the space of hope created by the emperor has become the birthplace and pure land of this world!"
The "truth" spoken by the Mist Emperor made everyone feel as if they were hearing a book that violated the will of heaven.
"What nonsense!" Yuchi Nanxing angrily shouted, "You actually... violated... the creation of the Yuan Emperor..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sky suddenly darkened.
Endless abyss dust rolled in, instantly engulfing the space where Yuchi Nanxing was, and within a few short breaths, it spread over a hundred miles, engulfing all the mysterious practitioners who were watching from afar.
The voice of the Mist Emperor rang out in the sea of fog that had fallen out of nowhere: "Now, answer this Emperor, is it possible that the Abyss Emperor you mentioned can control the Abyss Dust in this way? Control the sea of fog?"
Yuchi Nanxing opened his mouth wide, staring at the rolling sea of fog in amazement, unable to speak.
"If he can't, how can he create a place for himself in this abyssal world!"
"And I am able to do it. Why do you doubt that I am the one who condensed the sea of fog and opened up the land of life!"
The broken neck tried to raise the head again and again, Yuchi Nanxing's lips moved and trembled, his will and faith made him instinctively want to denounce all the disrespectful words to the Yuan Emperor. However, although he had the strength to shout, he suddenly couldn't find the words to refute.
The Abyss Emperor cannot control the Abyss Dust, and no one can control the Abyss Dust. The ultimate interference that people in this world can do to the Abyss Dust is to disperse and isolate it.
At least before today, this was an eternal and unquestionable understanding in this world.
However, he watched helplessly as the Mist Emperor drove Yuanchen and covered him with a huge sea of fog in an instant.
It was not a rumor from others, but something he saw with his own eyes and felt with his own body, so he didn't even have the urge to doubt it.
"Answer me one more question."
The voice of the Mist Emperor was close at hand. For Yuchi Nanxing, whose faith was wavering, the words of the Mist Emperor at this moment made him feel a fear he had never felt before... the fear of having his faith shaken:
"Why do the beasts of the sea of fog only wander in the sea of fog and rarely leave the sea of fog to wreak havoc on the living and pure lands where you live?"
Yuchi Nanxing spoke, and this time, his voice was clearly empty: "Because the Abyss Beast instinctively approaches Abyss Dust."
"Really? Ha!"
It was still a cold mockery, but the moment the mocking voice fell, the pupils of all the mysterious practitioners who were already extremely terrified bulged out, and their souls were so frightened that they were almost torn apart.
Above the deep fog, large swathes of black shadows and dim lights appeared, from thousands to tens of thousands, and then to hundreds of thousands...
Those were actually the shadows and pupils of the Abyss Beast, neatly arranged and densely packed, covering the sky and the sun.
But there was no roar, no bite, as they slowly stepped out of the deep mist in unison, as if they were gazing at the trembling creatures in the distance in dead silence.
They had never seen such a docile abyss beast, but this scene was a thousand times more terrifying than the greatest danger they had encountered in the abyss fog.
Yuchi Nanxing's pupils stopped trembling completely. The dense yet neat shadows of the abyss beasts reflected in his eyes, as if piercing his pupils and all his cognition.
No matter how absurd, no matter how unbelievable, they all could not help but realize an endlessly terrifying fact: these Abyss Beasts... the Abyss Beasts that only had the instinct of destruction in their cognition, were being controlled by the Mist Emperor!
"Now, answer this emperor again."
The voice of the Mist Emperor at this moment was like the devil's low hum in Yuchi Nanxing's soul: "Why do the beasts of the Mist Sea only wander in the Mist Sea, and not bring disaster to your birthplace and pure land?"
Yuchi Nanxing did not answer, and could not answer.
"It seems that even a fool like you has figured out the answer." The voice of the Mist Emperor resounded through the heavens and earth, penetrating deeply into every soul in this space: "Then I will tell you the answer in your heart."
"The abyssal beasts in the fog sea are all my subjects. The reason they won't leave the fog sea is that before I fell asleep, I left an imperial decree in the fog sea, forbidding all the abyssal subjects to leave the fog sea."
"Under the emperor's order, no matter if it is the abyss beasts or the abyss ghosts, no matter if it is the original people or the later people, they will strictly obey and will not cause trouble to the land of hope opened up for foreign creatures."
"But, when I woke up from my long sleep, I heard that the land I left for you had become the merit of the man who called himself 'Emperor Yuan', and a so-called pure land was built!"
The Mist Emperor's voice was one part fury and nine parts compassion: "And now, I have to send you, the poor fools, to punish the benevolent emperor who gave you this world!"
