The blood-red setting sun illuminated the entire sky, the faded, old-fashioned sky seemingly soaked in the yellowish-brown canyons below. Amidst the rugged, uneven terrain, junior sister Gu Nishang's figure appeared as small as an ant.
Ye Tian gazed at her from an extremely high place, with eyesight that was almost godlike or demonic. He could see her pale, frail body slumped on the yellow earth, her face filled with terror.
"Hehehe." The laughter was incredibly complex, as if it surrounded the entire sky, yet it was also full of layers, as if it contained the unrestrained mockery of ancient gods and demons, ravaging and slaughtering humanity with an arrogant attitude. It was an arrogant attitude, an arrogant attitude that made people's hearts tremble.
Ye Tian's face was extremely grim. The laughter echoing in the sky made one feel insignificant, and the immense and profound meaning it contained was terrifying.
The peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm could never unleash such astonishing power. It could only be the realm of the Feng Dynasty, a realm that no governor of this towering, multi-million-foot-tall state had ever possessed. Only such a realm could unleash such might.
"Senior brother...run away quickly." Gu Nishang's face was as pale as paper, and her whole body trembled uncontrollably due to the chill caused by instinctive fear.
Humans are human because they are both great and ordinary. When one's realm surpasses that of a Great Immortal, reaching a higher level in legends and possessing boundless, immense, and majestic power, they can no longer be called "human." Because they have transcended the ordinary.
A feeling of being spied on spread throughout Ye Tian's body, as if everything about him had been seen through, and all his secrets had been exposed at this moment. If Ye Tian had to describe how he felt, it would be like running naked! There were no words that could describe it.
A chill ran down his spine, an instinctive sense of dread. Goosebumps and goosebumps stood on end! Before Ye Tian could even clearly see what kind of enemy he was facing, this immense sense of crisis had already enveloped him.
Ye Tian suppressed the terrifying fear emanating from his instincts and the depths of his heart, and looked up at the sky. He saw a huge, blood-red eye appear in the heavens, as if a gate to the heavens had been opened, a beam of light splitting its pupil. The blood-red eyeball and the whites of its eye replaced the sky, peering at Ye Tian from all directions.
If it were to make a move, Ye Tian would likely have no chance of survival.
"Ant. This world, the sky, even this heaven. I can take over your will at any time. Destroying your body is as easy as swatting an insect. My cauldron is something you can never weave or dye. Now, cripple your cultivation, kneel and pray, and I may let you live a wretched life."
The voice resonated from the depths of his heart. It was no longer a threat, but a notification. As if by divine will, Ye Tian instinctively believed that his only path was to kneel and beg for mercy, crippling his cultivation. And gradually, he began to accept this from the bottom of his heart.
A terrifying and horrifying force began to interfere with Ye Tian's thoughts. Like being drunk, his consciousness was slowly being eroded, and gradually, the only thought in his mind was to crawl on his knees and tremble. This thought slowly eroded his mind.
"Mortals, mere ants. Do you think you're worthy to save the vessel I've chosen? You will forever be my vessel, Shun's vessel. Even if you shatter this heaven and earth and journey to the boundless stars, you will never escape my grasp." The voice of heaven and earth was contemptuous and filled with unrestrained mockery.
"Your realm is as insignificant as a puddle. You dare to try to compare yourself to the vast ocean. Return to the past, for you have no choice but to await my favor in the endless expanse of time. These ants, even after a hundred years, will not be able to save your life."
Blood-red replaced the mocking gaze of the heavens, and Gu Nishang trembled on the ground. This genius, whose talent was divine, was utterly powerless at this moment. An ant-like weakling, even with her utmost effort, she could not struggle against the heavens.
"Junior Sister..." Thoughts were constantly intertwining in Ye Tian's mind. The evil thought that filled his heart—the desire to become a blood sphere puppet, to abandon his cultivation and kneel in submission—was immediately amplified a hundredfold when he saw the blood-red eyeball, surging into his mind like a tidal wave.
Ye Tian was already somewhat lost, struggling to hold on with the last vestiges of his willpower. His primordial spirit was like a drifting, unknowable thing, perhaps about to vanish in an instant. But that tiny bit of scholarly aura he had cultivated in the Confucian academy was desperately keeping him afloat.
The Confucian spirit of righteousness helped him constantly rid himself of these distracting thoughts, as if Ye Tian's primordial spirit were tightly bound and sealed. He tried his best to break free, but he was still powerless.
Powerless.
It caused him deep pain and endless mental torment.
"It." This unnamed, unknown entity wanted to use Junior Sister Gu Nishang as a furnace, as a slave. It wanted to make Junior Sister wait for its favor in boundless time and space.
Gu Nishang.
She was the only genius of the Ruthless Sect to reach the Divine Realm, Ye Tian's best employee. No one could take her away. No one could take her away.
Ye Tian's primordial spirit cannot be revived, but his will will not be extinguished. No one can erase his will; it is eternal.
The Ruthless Sect was a forbidden zone for his soul. If there was a pure land in this world for which Ye Tian would give his life, it would surely be the Ruthless Sect.
Whether it was Li Xiaoyao or Su Muchen at the very beginning, or Gu Nishang and Huan Qingsha later on.
These are Ye Tian's relatives.
He wants to keep his working-class employees; who can take them away?!
No one can take it away!!
So what if his blood-red eyes replaced the heavens? Ye Tian is already at the Golden Immortal realm. He is already an immortal.
When immortals do things, why should we fear the heavens?
Ye Tian wanted to awaken, to escape the agonizing will of those blood-red eyeballs. There was only one way: to rely on the last vestige of clarity within his heart.
If Ye Tian's primordial spirit is a vast ocean, then the mere Confucian scholar's realm is just a tiny lake, barely a fingernail's width. It survived this covering.
Only by covering all the vast oceans with it can there be a chance.
Ye Tian channeled his will into the righteous spirit of Confucianism, feeling an indescribable surge of high spirits that stirred the immense power within his chest.
perhaps.
Scholars should possess a strong sense of righteousness.
It shields the world from all evil spirits and demons!
Ye Tian took a step forward, and the tiny bit of primordial spirit within his body that possessed the only light and insight exploded with boundless light, re-enhancing the entire primordial spirit.
The righteous path within my heart has been revived and awakened once again.
Ye Tian gazed at the boundless, blood-red eyeball in the sky, his eyes filled with resolute and boundless killing intent.
He will definitely do what he says.
Since I said I would take Gu Nishang home, I will definitely go.
If these blood-red eyes can replace the heavens, then he can cleave the sky with a single sword strike.
"Slay the Heavens".
Ye Tian has a sword coming from afar!
