Chapter 379: Chapter 379 – World Overlord
“Since you’ve come, don’t think about leaving,” Xian Xianghua’s gaze was cold, and her tone was filled with killing intent.
Feng Kule hurriedly waved his hands and said, “We’re not here to fight for Fate Emperor River!”
After Baihao Yixin landed, he dusted himself off and looked at Xian Xianghua as he flicked the stray hairs in front of his face back, and he laughed as he said, “This beauty, you’re quite strong eh. Don’t worry, we’re here to stop Spirit Sovereign Yan and don’t have any interest in Fate Emperor River.”
Feng Kule warned Baihao Yixin in a low voice, “She is Zhou Xuanji’s paramour.”
Hearing this, Baihao Yixin’s face immediately became green.
He only felt disgust, and the more he looked at Xian Xianghua, he felt adverse to her.
He coldly harrumphed and said, “This Emperor wants to ambush Spirit Sovereign Yan here; it’s best that you don’t obstruct This Emperor, or else if This Emperor self-destructs, you’ll die and so will that little fellow in the river.”
When bringing up Zhou Xuanji, he could not help but feel angry.
At the same time, he felt quite displeased; such a beauty with such great strength had been taken by Zhou Xuanji; the heavens were unjust!
Xian Xianghua narrowed her eyes and said, “Are you the Great Emperor Heartless who has lost every battle?”
Hearing that, Baihao Yixin felt his heart being stabbed and almost coughed up blood.
Lost every battle?
He immediately became infuriated and prepared to teach Xian Xianghua a lesson, but he was stopped by Feng Kule.
“Xian Xianghua, now is not the time to antagonize each other. Do you think you can stop everyone outside by yourself? Apart from people from all over the world, there are also 30 Great Tribulation Scattered Immortals from the Heavenly Palace lying in ambush,” Feng Kule said in a low voice, feeling quite pleased inwardly.
There was finally someone who could put Baihao Yixin in his place.
Xian Xianghua asked, “How are you going to ambush Spirit Sovereign Yan? Haven’t you already lost against him once.”
Baihao Yixin was once again stabbed in his heart, making him feel quite pained.
Feng Kule glanced at him and felt inwardly delighted, but he continued to look somber as he said, “We’ve at least injured Spirit Sovereign Yan. Our plan is to set a barrier here, and once Spirit Sovereign Yan enters, he will be trapped and be unable to break free within a short period of time.”
Xian Xianghua frowned; what crappy plan was this?
Baihao Yixin said, feeling quite unhappy, “Don’t worry, he doesn’t dare to enter Fate Emperor River, nor can he destroy Fate Emperor River. If we can trap him here, This Emperor will be able to self-destruct at a close range, to the point that his soul scatters and even true gods will not be able to save him.”
Xian Xianghua asked, “How can we escape then?”
Hearing this, Feng Kule felt an inward pain; he had already been caught in the explosion twice, and he did not want to experience it again.
Baihao Yixin said arrogantly, “That will depend on your own strength.”
Hearing this, Feng Kule suddenly felt an intense desire to rebel.
Xian Xianghua did not reply and sank into her thoughts.
Baihao Yixin was not in a hurry; after all, Spirit Sovereign Yan had not come yet.
…
At Juedi Cliff, Spirit Sovereign Yan and Dugu stood within the valley, looking at each other.
“Have you thought about my proposal? Wouldn’t it be good to be the Lord of the Ages? This is your opportunity to turn your situation around,” Spirit Sovereign Yan said, his tone filled with longing.
Even though this person was only a remnant soul, he had once caused the whole world to feel shocked.
Even the Heavenly Palace’s Master drooled over him.
Dugu frowned and said, “Just what do you want? I’m sure the Heavenly Palace doesn’t know about this, right?”
Spirit Sovereign Yan nodded and smirked, giving a rebellious smile.
“The Heavenly Palace is going into decline, and I have enough strength but am only a Spirit Sovereign. My son has peerless talent, but because he offended the Heavenly Palace’s Crown Prince, he was sent to the mortal realm as punishment. I do not accept this, so I decided to rebel against the Heavenly Palace.” Even though his words were somewhat arrogant, his gaze remained on Dugu.
Dugu did not immediately reply, and he instead frowned as he weighed the benefits and costs.
Spirit Sovereign Yan turned and looked at the sky as he said slowly, “Devil Emperor Dugu, you were a rare genius in the mortal realm. You were not any weaker than Liu Wuji and your death was a great pity. Are you really satisfied with leaving this massive chessboard?”
Devil Emperor Dugu!
The peerless genius of 50,000 years ago!
Before becoming a Great Emperor, he had defeated Liu Wuji’s body. Back then, Liu Wuji had slaughtered countless beings and absorbed boundless essence qi. His cultivation had surpassed Seventh Tribulation Scattered Immortal, but still he had been defeated by Devil Emperor Dugu.
The him of back then was like the current Zhou Xuanji.
He had also been at his prime and invincible in the world.
Due to the ravages of time, only his remnant soul remained in this forbidden area. Wasn’t it sorrowful to struggle at death’s door like this?
Dugu remained silent.
Spirit Sovereign Yan was not in a hurry, and he silently waited for him to make a decision.
His goal had never been Zhou Xuanji or Baihao Yixin; he wanted even more.
“Very well!” Dugu said in a low voice, his eyes flashing as the demonic qi around him swayed.
Spirit Sovereign Yan grinned and loudly laughed.
…
Within Fate Emperor River, Zhou Xuanji did not know the situation outside, and he was completely focused on World Overlord.
The heaven and earth’s power was his power.
The heaven and earth’s vastness was his heart’s vastness.
The heaven and earth’s kindness was his soul’s kindness.
Zhou Xuanji entered a moment of enlightenment, and the violet Taichi diagram on his forehead gave off brilliant light.
Boom!
The spirit qi around him suddenly exploded out.
He was breaking through!
It was not just a breakthrough in cultivation but a breakthrough in his Art!
All of Fate Emperor River started to violently roil, causing Xian Xianghua, Baihao Yixin, and Feng Kule to look over.
“How is this possible?!” Baihao Yixin said in shock as his eyes widened, “He’s not dead?”
Feng Kule frowned and rubbed his forehead; this trash was slapping himself in the face again.
Xian Xianghua did not look excited; instead, her eyes were filled with anticipation.
She truly hoped that Zhou Xuanji would succeed at becoming a Great Emperor.
Even though Zhou Xuanji had never officially revealed his feelings to her, she understood that she was in his heart.
Even though they did not make it explicit, they were in each other’s hearts.
Rumble…
At that moment, the underground region violently trembled, as if it was going to collapse.
Baihao Yixin suddenly looked up and mattered, “In the end, those trash still found this place.”
Xian Xianghua frowned, and demonic qi leaked out, forming a celestial demon, looking incredibly ferocious.
Above ground, in the forest, Founding Emperor Chi Wei was surrounded by 30 Heavenly Guards. He was covered with blood, and his breathing was ragged.
There were people all around him; all of the cultivators and demons looked at him coldly, and they were gathered incredibly densely, like an inescapable net. He was completely surrounded, whether in the sky or on the ground.
Founding Emperor Chi Wei wiped the blood on his mouth and said coldly, “The Heavenly Palace wants to destroy our human race, and yet you are all cooperating with them for Fate Emperor River? Don’t you think this is ridiculous?”
His voice was loud, and caused many cultivators’ expressions to flicker.
Who did not fear the Heavenly Palace? It was because they were afraid that they wanted to become a Great Emperor.
Only by becoming strong could they feel secure.
The Heavenly Guard at the front was 15 meters tall, and he held an axe with both hands. He wore armor made of what seemed like diamond, looking shiny and sharp, and he glared at Founding Emperor Chi Wei as he said disdainfully, “Mortal, gods will not completely exterminate all humans, only those who resist. You are someone who must die. If you tell us where Fate Emperor River is, we will allow you to have an easy death. Otherwise, we will torment your soul and have you experience unbearable torture.”
The other Heavenly Guards all laughed mockingly.
A Second Tribulation Scattered Immortal dared to trick them?
Founding Emperor Chi Wei deeply breathed in, and his gaze became resolute.
Underground, within the Fate Emperor River, Zhou Xuanji broke through to Fifth Tribulation Scattered Immortal. At the same time, he gained enlightenment of the World Buddha Art’s third level, World Overlord!
His magic energy rapidly rose, and the stream became a river, which became a sea, and then an ocean—it was incredibly vast and boundless!
