"I refuse!"
Jiang Yuan answered decisively. Putting aside the fact that guarding the tomb for nine days would prevent him from entering the pilgrimage route, even kneeling and kowtowing three times was not something he could accept.
"What, you don't want to become a member of my Fuxi clan?" Taihao Yao was quite surprised. He originally thought Jiang Yuan would be grateful and kneel down to guard the tomb, but the other party's attitude puzzled him greatly.
"There is no one in this world who can make Jiang Yuan kneel down!"
When Jiang Yuan said this, he thought of his adoptive parents, but after this experience, he roughly understood that he was at the center of the vortex. He was grateful to his adoptive parents, but he could not bring himself to kneel.
"Do you know who the owner of the tomb in front of you is?" Taihao Yao's voice gradually turned cold.
"I know, the Human Emperor Fuxi!"
Jiang Yuan remained unfazed by the honor or disgrace, and continued, "But even if it were the Human Emperor, I would not kneel."
"What do you mean!" Taihao Yao had already revealed his killing intent. To them, the Human Emperor was not only their ancestor, but also their eternal god. It could be said that the Fuxi clan was merely continuing the Human Emperor's will, and their entire clan was willing to die for the Human Emperor.
"I won't kneel, that's all. It doesn't mean anything!" Jiang Yuan said firmly.
However, his attitude completely enraged Taihao Yao, who shouted, "Kneel down!"
His kneeling command contained the power of his Nascent Soul Realm cultivation, but Jiang Yuan remained unmoved.
Upon seeing this, Taihao Yao slowly closed his eyes, and the entire Divine Emperor's Tomb began to stir again.
The first deceased person awoke and uttered the same two words: "Kneel down."
Immediately following were the second and third rounds, with each of the deceased chanting the words "kneel down" to pressure Jiang Yuan.
This day was filled with the rage of the Fuxi clan throughout the ages, but Jiang Yuan remained calm.
His will has extended to the universe, and even an eternal god is not qualified to make Jiang Yuan kneel.
Kneel down!
All the deceased in the entire God Emperor's Tomb have awakened. Every being who was a Supreme God or a Transformation God in life has chosen to roar in anger at this moment. They cannot accept someone who disrespects the Human Emperor.
With a thunderous roar, a powerful being on the verge of decay revived. This was no longer a deceased being, but a true living being. As he stood up, the entire world trembled, and the battlefield rules outside continuously seeped into the God Emperor's Tomb, as if trying to stop something.
"A demigod?"
Jiang Yuan never expected that a demigod would be buried in this cemetery. What kind of cemetery could contain such a powerful figure who stood at the pinnacle of the battlefield?
Kneel down!
The demigod Jiang Yuan walked towards him, his gaze filled with endless coldness, as if he would not hesitate to attack if Jiang Yuan did not kneel.
"I said, I won't kneel, and that's it. Even if the gods come, it won't help!" Jiang Yuan reiterated, showing no sign of backing down.
Despite the immense pressure, Jiang Yuan stood tall and straight before the tomb, like a war god.
This is the true self, the eternal and unyielding true self, having severed the past and reshaped the future. He is the eternal and unique one, and nothing in the world can interfere with his will.
"If that's the case, what use are your legs!"
In that instant, six or seven near-death demigods attacked.
Taihao Yao's expression was gloomy. He wanted to stop it, but everyone present was his ancestor, and he had no power to stop it. Moreover, he wanted to see if Jiang Yuan was really a tough guy who could still maintain his pride in the face of life and death.
But is Jiang Yuan simply refusing to kneel?
"A person with half their body buried in the ground is trying to interfere with my will!"
Jiang Yuan looked up and saw the divine blood within his body burning continuously. In just a breath, a power from eternity descended.
"You who forcibly kept survivors in the living world, what right do you have to make me kneel?"
A phantom appeared in this world. It was neither the phantom of the Grim Reaper nor the ultimate Dharma form. It was the manifestation of Jiang Yuan's eternal will, the only true self that transcended the past and the future.
"war!"
With a surge of fighting spirit, the God Emperor's Tomb fell silent in an instant. One by one, the decaying demigods retreated frantically, their eyes filled with unimaginable fear.
Eternal God!
This is the will of the eternal god!
However, it is unimaginable that the will of an eternal god would appear in a Heavenly Spirit Realm being.
"Taihao Yao, do you think this place is worthy of my kneeling?" Jiang Yuan transcends all things, and his will has surpassed that of the God Emperor. He respects the God Emperor as a senior, but that does not mean he will kneel.
Taihao Yao fell silent. He had never imagined that a person would possess such a terrifying will in the sixth year since the start of the battlefield. This was a will that had never been seen before in the history of the God Emperor and the battlefield.
"Gods!"
The decaying demigods looked at Jiang Yuan with astonishment and suspicion. Each of them kept a distance of over a thousand meters from Jiang Yuan. Although the distance was far, they had already been affected by the radiation of his will. That will, which carried the power of the Lord of Death, could truly drag them into the abyss of hell.
"Esteemed predecessors, I understand the meaning of your existence. You have endured thousands of years of solitude, clinging to life in this world with bodies that are neither human nor ghost, all to contribute your strength on the final battlefield. But this does not mean you can force the will of others!"
Jiang Yuan harbored no ill will toward these dying demigods. These survivors should have already died, but they abandoned reincarnation to stay and burn themselves out on the final battlefield. They are admirable.
"You know?" A slightly younger, decaying demigod raised an eyebrow.
"I not only know, but I am also willing to lead you to fight again! The human race will be proud of us!" Jiang Yuan did not lower his stance just because the other party was a demigod.
