Zhou Xingdou was no exception, and it seemed that he received special attention from the white light, with crackling and popping sounds resounding from his body!
In an instant, the giant elephant particles around Zhou Xingdou boiled, and countless giant elephant particles were released in large quantities at this moment.
In just a few breaths, the original 510 million giant elephant particles increased by 30 million!
It has reached 540 million!
Not only that, the barrier to the mid-stage of sainthood also loosened at this moment, and the gentle white light caused his sea-like saintly power to surge.
As the holy power surged, the barrier to the mid-stage of sainthood was broken through. Before Zhou Xingdou could react, the holy power surged again, this time directly impacting the barrier to the late-stage of sainthood.
At this moment, Zhou Xingdou's cultivation level also soared to the late stage of Saint!
Moreover, this power was not forced; everything happened naturally. His cultivation was not only not superficial, but was even more solid than before.
"Interesting. Is this my payment?"
As Zhou Xingdou felt the immense power within the white light, a smile appeared in his eyes.
Not only Zhou Xingdou, but also the hundred Xingyou Guards benefited to varying degrees.
The holy white light pierced through the Qingxin Palace that Zhou Xingdou had put into his sleeve, causing the eight starlight cocoons to hatch instantly.
Without hesitation, Zhou Xingdou immediately released the eight restored Venerable-level Star Guardians from Qingxin Palace.
The eight Venerable-level Star Guardians still looked somewhat bewildered, since they had originally transformed into a giant cocoon of starlight and it would take them several days to fully recover and hatch.
At this moment, the white light gradually dissipated, but what happened next shocked everyone. The sacred mountain range, which had been destroyed by Zhou Xingdou and the Demon Sea, returned to its original celestial grandeur after the white light faded.
The evil aura that had lingered between heaven and earth for so long had long since disappeared, and the land tainted by misfortune had once again become lush and green, with rows of broken buildings and palaces being rebuilt.
Even the Celestial Mountain of the Universe, which was sacrificed by the Holy Mother of the Universe and shattered into dust by the ancient mirror, has now reappeared before everyone, shining brightly.
Yu Chi Li's eyes flickered slightly, revealing a hint of surprise as he said:
"This method is probably beyond the capabilities of even the patriarchs of the Universal Holy Lands, let alone a single patriarch."
After all, this was just a decree, not a real person descending, not even an incarnation, yet it could achieve such a feat. I'm afraid even Qin Ming couldn't do that.
Wei Luosheng's expression also changed slightly:
"There's only one possibility: the ancestral emperor of the universe... has been resurrected!"
As Wei Luosheng had predicted, the Ninth Ancestor of the Universe grasped the sacred decree at this moment, his voice becoming extremely majestic and awe-inspiring:
"The Emperor has decreed!"
This sound pierced through millions of miles, and even in the forbidden lands of the universe sealed by countless restrictions, the extremely majestic voice of the Ninth Ancestor of the Universe could be clearly heard.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
The Holy Mother of the Universe, Wan Tianzhou, the Thirty-Six Saints, and tens of thousands of cultivators within the forbidden area knelt before the imperial decree without hesitation, their faces solemn and devout.
Zhou Xingdou remained unmoved and indifferent. He was not the ancestor of the Zhou family, so how could he possibly kneel down?
The four servants of the Zhou family and the Xingyou Guard simply bowed to the imperial edict to show their respect to the Emperor Ancestor of the Universe.
The emperors of the immortal forces were all outstanding individuals who released the primordial era; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them heroes.
Even opposing forces would hold their respective emperor ancestors in high esteem, since without the emperor ancestors of these immortal forces, the Primordial Era would probably have ceased to exist long ago.
Seeing everyone kneeling in worship, the Ninth Ancestor of the Universe also unleashed his sacred decree, and an incredible aura immediately enveloped the entire world.
A supremely vast and radiant celestial melody also resounded at that moment:
"The world is in turmoil, and the calamity is happening in broad daylight. This calamity is not a disaster, but a meritorious one."
The sixteen characters suddenly transformed into a mantra, which blasted into Wan Tianzhou's body. Wan Tianzhou was shocked, because he instantly knew what this mantra was!
At the same time, a magnificent and resounding sound echoed throughout the realms beyond, and within the Chaos Domain:
"I, Wan Huanyu, am the Emperor Ancestor of the Universe. Today, I sever the chance of transcendence and lead the Universe into calamity. All people of the Universe in the Chaos Domain, heed my command and join the Central Heaven Purple Star Army to punish evil with all your might."
From that moment on, the entire world was astonished.
Within the Holy Land of the Universe, the supremely vast and radiant celestial music dissipated, and the Ninth Ancestor of the Universe began to proclaim the decree:
"The Holy Lord of the Universe secretly intercepted the Dao Fruit and transformed it into a being. His mind was not firm and was corrupted by misfortune, exposing the source of the universe and causing this catastrophe. However, out of pity for his past hardships and the fact that he has already died, his true spirit is specially needed to enter the cycle of reincarnation."
As soon as the Ninth Ancestor of the Universe finished speaking, the remnant body of the Holy Lord of the Universe, which had been stored in Wan Tianzhou's storage bag, ignored everything and suddenly escaped.
A beam of light shot out from the decree, illuminating the remains of the Holy Lord of the Universe. The severed body slowly regenerated as flesh and blood intertwined, only to vanish in an instant as it turned into specks of light.
Before anyone could react, the Ninth Ancestor of the Universe continued to read the decree:
"Nie Zhu, Yuan Yanyi, Liu Baohua... faced death without retreating amidst the calamity of evil, slaying countless demons, upholding the spirit of the Holy Land of the Universe, their courage is commendable."
I hereby bestow upon you thirty-six universal principles to assist you in reaching the Supreme Realm, and further grant you thirty-six positions as Universal Protectors to fill the vacancies throughout the universe.
As soon as the words fell, all the Daos resounded, and thirty-six ancient and vast Dao principles emerged before the decree, crashing into the bodies of the thirty-six saints without warning.
The thirty-six saints were overjoyed. Sensing the changes within their bodies, they immediately bowed to the decree again and shouted in unison:
"Thank you for your grace, Emperor!"
At this moment, inside the forbidden area of the universe, the person who had obeyed Wan Tianzhou's order but hesitated and chose to escape into the forbidden area was filled with regret and wished he could slap himself twice.
Because of their momentary fear, they missed a great opportunity to transform themselves!
At this moment, the Ninth Ancestor of the Universe glanced at Zhou Xingdou and smiled slightly. Zhou Xingdou had a vague guess in his heart, and the matter was already self-evident.
The Ninth Ancestor of the Universe turned his gaze to Wan Tianzhou:
"Wan Tianzhou, the Holy Son of the Universe, was originally transformed from the Dao Fruit of the Universe. He was destined to face this calamity. Now, he defies the heavens and changes his fate. He is fearless in the face of the great calamity and leads the thirty-six saints to fight bravely against the enemy, thus upholding the prestige of the Universe."
"Now that the thirty-fifth Holy Lord of the Holy Land of the Universe has fallen, a country cannot be without a ruler for a day, and a Holy Land cannot be without a master for a day."
Therefore, the Emperor Ancestor decreed that Wan Tianzhou, the Holy Son of the Universe, would succeed as the thirty-sixth Holy Lord of the Universe Holy Land, and would announce this to the world thirty-six days later, with the elders of all realms returning to crown him!
The powerful voice of the Ninth Ancestor resounded throughout heaven and earth, seemingly blessed by imperial might and spurred on by the power of the law, leaving no room for doubt.
The Holy Mother of the Universe smiled instantly. It was not unexpected that Wan Tianzhou would become the Holy Lord, after all, Wan Tianzhou was still too young and his cultivation was not strong.
Now that the Ninth Ancestor of the Universe has made the final decision and the Emperor Ancestor's decree has been proclaimed to Heaven and Earth, the Holy Mother of the Universe still finds it hard to believe.
