“Be still and gain enlightenment?” Yun Che sneered, “It’s just another old immortal who hides his head and shows his tail. He jumped out with his tail between his legs when his nest was about to be uncovered!”
Nan Guizhong, even though he has been "dead" for many years, but as the former Emperor of Nanming and the ruler of the Southern Divine Territory, how could the God Realm dare to forget his reputation.
And today he has come to the world again like a myth, with an awe-inspiring majesty as vast as the starry sky even greater than before. However, what he gets is not the worship of all spirits, but a picture of the tragic situation of the South Sea that is like a nightmare, and... the merciless ridicule of a junior.
"Humph, as expected." Qianye Ying'er murmured. She was not too surprised that Nan Gui was still alive.
Those strong men who stood at the pinnacle of the Mysterious Dao and experienced the vicissitudes of life often spent their later years exploring the world beyond the boundary of the Mysterious Dao. Therefore, they would use "death" to escape from the world and attain enlightenment. There have been too many precedents in the history of the God Realm.
It’s a pity that they lived in seclusion until the end of their lives, and no one was able to penetrate the ultimate mystery of the Dao as they wished.
“Yun…Che!” Nan Wansheng slowly raised his head, blood gushing out of his seven orifices. One could imagine how angry he was. “This king…will personally…kill you…ugh!”
His eyes went dark and he gritted his teeth to hold back the blood that was about to gush out.
Although Nan Wansheng was arrogant throughout his life, he had great respect for his father. Given his father's status and reputation, who in the world would dare to humiliate him like this?
Nan Gui finally looked at Yun Che deeply, but lowered his eyes to the Nanming Divine Emperor and said, “Wansheng, your father spent ten thousand years of hard work to temper your character, but now it has become so chaotic. Even if Nanming is safe today, you have already been completely defeated in front of Yun Che.”
"..." Nan Wansheng slowly closed his eyes and said, "Father, I am useless. I used the Mingshen cannon because of a momentary fear. This is a serious crime... I am too ashamed to face my ancestors and Nanming."
Nan Guizhong shook his head and said slowly, "Everything that happened today was seen by your father. If I were your father, facing such a tyrannical demon, I would make the same choice as you. Otherwise, since it was related to the Mingshen Cannon, your father would have sent a message to stop it...You deserved to be defeated."
Indeed, the forbidden power that transcends the boundaries made the Dragon Emperor never dare to step into the Nanming God Cannon. Its power would be blasted back in an instant and blasted towards the God Emperor and the God Realm of Nanming... Nan Wansheng could not have imagined it, Nan Guizhong could not have imagined it, even if all the ancestors of the Nanming God Realm were resurrected and appeared here, they would never have imagined it.
Nan Wansheng gritted his teeth fiercely, and the rise and fall of his chest gradually calmed down. Then he lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "Everything was just an accident of the Nanming cannon. My Nanming has not been defeated! Now that my father is in charge, I will surely be able to... cut Yun Che into pieces!"
In his spiritual perception, there was no longer any breath of the Four Ming Kings, and only four of the Sixteen Ming Gods remained. Nan Gui finally let out a long breath... This was the power of the Ming God Cannon. It was truly devastating, killing gods and Buddhas, but this power actually hit the lifeblood of Nan Ming.
"Xuanyuan, Ziwei." Nan Guizhong suddenly said, "Thanks to your help, Wansheng's life was saved. I, Nanming, owe you two a big favor. But today, I still need your help."
Emperor Xuanyuan and Emperor Ziwei saluted at the same time. Emperor Xuanyuan said, “That’s wrong, Senior. Demon Lord Yun Che is the common enemy of our Southern Divine Region. In the current situation, how can we not work together!”
"That's right." Emperor Ziwei stared and nodded.
Nan Guizhong glanced at the silent Emperor Shitian and said, "Cang Shitian, you have lost countless descendants, but you still refuse to give up the throne. It seems that you are really obsessed with the title of Emperor."
“Hahahaha.” Cang Shitian laughed loudly. “As a God Emperor, I can control all spirits, trample on all worlds, and follow my desires. How happy it is! How can I bear to let it go? My state of mind is far from comparable to that of Brother Guizhong… Oh no, Senior Guizhong.”
"You've been talking so much for such a long time, but you still haven't finished your last words?"
Yun Che’s voice was like a poisonous sting that pierced through his soul. Nan Guizhong finally turned his head. He looked at Yun Che with an expressionless face and slowly said, “The demon lord who fell into evil and brought disaster to the world, the three legendary Yama ancestors, the two Brahma emperors who were supposed to have passed away, and the goddess and her servants… It was indeed shocking, enough to make even ghosts and gods tremble.”
“But, you think you can set foot on our Nanming just because of this,” Nan Guizhong said sharply, his old eyes emitting a golden light like the blazing sun, “then you are underestimating this Nanming Divine Realm that has stood for hundreds of thousands of years!”
With just a few words, the blood of all the souls in the Nanming Sea surged. Nan Wansheng, Nan Qianqiu and the others stood up straight, their blood, fueled by the fire of hatred, ignited a terrible wave of energy on their bodies.
“Of course, it’s not possible with just a few of us.” Yun Che said with a smile, “But the biggest obstacle, haven’t you already cleared it for us? The Ming King, the Ming God, and the Divine Realm were all blown to pieces by your most proud Ming God cannon, hahahaha!”
"You..." Nan Wansheng's body shook violently, and the endless fighting spirit and hatred that had just ignited collapsed in an instant.
"Alas." Nan Guizhong did not attack out of anger, but sighed and said, "Senior Wu Gu, Brother Bing Zhu, you were both emperors of Brahma who looked down upon the universe, and you were both people I respected very much. Why are you now associating with such evil people who have fallen into the devil's way and brought disaster to the world? Are you really willing to make a mistake that can never be redeemed?"
Qianye Wugu's face was calm, and he said calmly, "When I was young, I thought I knew what was right and wrong, what was good and evil. However, as I grew older and the world changed, the distinction between right and wrong, good and evil became more and more blurred."
“The Heaven Smiting Demon Emperor broke through the realm and appeared in the world. In the end, no disaster occurred, but all kinds of situations of the common people were revealed. In my eyes, right and wrong, good and evil, were once again confused and overturned in these few short years.”
Return to the South "..."
"In the end," Qianye Wu Gudao said. With his seniority, he should be qualified to call him by his name. "Between us, who is good, who is evil, who is right, who is wrong? You have been away from the world for thousands of years. Can you really recognize it clearly?"
"..." Nan Gui was silent for a moment, as if thinking about something, and then said, "Forget it. With Nanming's current situation, it is indeed difficult for us to bear any more damage."
“Demon Lord,” he looked at Yun Che and said in a gentle voice, “Nan Ming and you do have some grievances, but there is no unsolvable hatred in the world. Even if Nan Ming suffers a serious injury, if we really fight face to face, it will definitely be enough to injure three thousand of you, not to mention that there are three Southern Territory God Emperors by your side. I believe that the Demon Lord knows this in his heart.”
“Oh?” Yun Che tilted his eyebrows.
"The result of Nanming today was caused by Wansheng using Nanming cannons, and has nothing to do with the Demon Lord and his party." Nangui's voice softened a little, and his hands clenched silently, "But if you offend the Demon Lord, I will give an explanation. Please tell me the conditions, and I will definitely meet them. From now on, I will never be an enemy of your Northern Divine Territory for ten thousand years!"
“Father!?” Nan Wan turned his head suddenly, and the expressions of the other people in Nanming also changed drastically.
Nan Ming had just suffered such a heavy blow and humiliation at the hands of Yun Che, and when Nan Gui finally showed up... he was actually about to give in and admit defeat.
Nan Guizhong stretched out his hand fiercely, firmly suppressing Nan Wansheng's agitated breath, and said in a deep voice, "In this way, the Demon Lord does not have to spend a single soldier, but gets all the benefits, leaving Nanming in disgrace and making the Demon Lord famous. The Demon Lord will not have any objection, right?"
Nan Wansheng was shaking all over, his face twitching as if his forehead was about to be crushed, but he didn't say a word, because he knew that Nan Ming really couldn't bear any more trauma now. What Nan Guizhong made was the most humiliating but most rational decision.
The people around Yun Che were too terrifying, and most of the Ming Kings and Ming Gods were buried under the Ming God cannons. Even if they fought to the death with hatred, it was impossible for them to leave all the bodies of Yun Che and others here. It would also make the Nanming Divine Realm, which had just endured a heavy calamity, even worse, and it might even be unable to recover from it.
And retreating in humiliation can preserve the foundation. As for Yun Che, he can be left to the Dragon God Realm that has been completely enraged.
“Ha, ha ha… Is there ever an unsolvable grudge? Ha ha… ha ha ha ha!” Yun Che laughed, from a low laugh to a fierce grin. He raised his arm and pointed a slightly bent finger at the Nanming Divine Emperor. “Nan… Wan… Sheng…”
The face that was laughing wildly suddenly twisted like an evil ghost, and the words that came out of his mouth were filled with a devilish murderous aura that could terrify people's souls. "Back then, in the east of the Eastern Region, outside the Blue Pole Star, those people who killed my master... you were one of them!"
That heart-breaking painful scene flashed by, Yun Che’s arms trembled slightly, and every word he uttered pierced his soul, “I swore back then… that I would make sure that your Nanming clan… would not have a single drop of blood left, not a single blade of grass left!”
Nan Guizhong’s expression finally changed drastically, because what came from Yun Che was the deep hatred and murderous intent that he had never felt in his life.
There is absolutely no solution!
"Just... relying on... you!?" Nan Wansheng said in a sinister voice. At this moment, he also knew clearly that even a humiliating retreat would be a luxury.
Realizing that his emotions were getting out of control, Yun Che took a deep breath, curled the corners of his lips slightly, and put on a grim mask. “By the way, Nan Guizhong, your method of stalling time is quite good. It’s more than enough to deceive a three-year-old child.”
Nan Guizhong's eyes twitched suddenly.
Yun Che laughed again, this time with a sneer of contempt. “What a coincidence! When you were reading your last words, you actually bought this Demon Lord a lot of time.”
boom
As soon as Yun Che’s voice fell, the sky in the east, west, and south suddenly darkened at the same time, followed by a deafening roar of destruction.
Along with the roar, there were also three violent bursts of dark aura.
“What…what!?” Everyone in Nanming was shocked, and the calmness on Nan Guizhong’s face disappeared in an instant.
There are more than thirty people with dark aura coming from three directions. Although the number is small, each of them has the aura of a God!
The strongest one is actually another level ten God Lord!
They hadn't noticed it before!
The direction from which the dark roar came was clearly...
"Oh...Oh no!" Emperor Xuanyuan felt cold all over.
"How could this happen?" Emperor Ziwei's hands and feet were also cold. "When did they..."
The dimensional formation that connected the Shifang Canglan Realm, Xuanyuan Realm, and Ziwei Realm to the Nanming Divine Realm was destroyed by the power of darkness at the same moment.
This also cut off the Nanming Divine Realm’s support... and even their retreat.
It is common knowledge in the demon realm for the profound practitioners of the God Realm that demons have difficulty hiding their dark auras. However, demons that have been "purified" by Yun Che's Eternal Tribulation of Darkness can perfectly hide their dark auras.
This "information gap" was the most important factor in the Northern Divine Region catching the Eastern Divine Region off guard.
When they had assaulted the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm, Chi Wuyao had first drawn out nearly half of the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm’s core combat power, then destroyed its dimensional formation, cutting off its support and escape routes, and then proceeded to engage in a brutal yet satisfying massacre in the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm.
Yun Che followed suit this time. When he entered the Southern Divine Region, Yan Tianxiao and his group also split into three groups and sneaked far beyond the Nanming Divine Realm.
When the Ming God Cannon was activated and all of Nanming’s combat power and attention were focused on Yun Che, Yan Tianxiao and his party quickly approached the dimensional formation and destroyed it all at once.
"The Demon Lord is safe and sound, Nanming has suffered three thousand casualties!" Yan Tianxiao soared into the sky, and the sky was dark and covered the sun. "Kill!!"
The Yama Demons and Yama Ghosts that had just completed the mission of destroying the formation instantly transformed into three bloodthirsty demon blades, stabbing at the core of the South Sea from three directions. Countless South Sea Mystics who were panicking in the series of drastic changes were shattered in the dark blood mist before they could even come back to life.

"Lucky, everything seems to be going well." Qianye Ying'er hummed softly, and in her jade hand, the "Oracle" released a cruel black light.
“Father, the three core profound formations have been completely destroyed.” Nan Wansheng gnashed his teeth.
The profound formation connecting the various king realms was considered extremely difficult to destroy in a short period of time in the eyes of the world. This undoubtedly told them how terrifying the demons who had been hiding on the side were.
Nan Guizhong closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened them, his vision was already clear. He said indifferently, "Demon Lord Yun Che, the one who can rule the Northern Divine Region, is indeed..."
“Kill!” Having successfully cut off Nanming’s support, Yun Che no longer cared to listen to any more nonsense from Nanming’s people. He issued the Northern Territory Demon Lord’s bloody slaughter order, which was also his heart-piercing oath back then.
"The Nanming lineage... not a single blade of grass grows!"
Boom!
The sky suddenly darkened, darkness oppressed the soul, the three Yama ancestors suddenly pounced out, their power has not yet erupted, but a deep layer of depression and fear has been cast over the ruined Nanming Divine Realm.
