As soon as he finished speaking, the dream shattered, and Ying Zheng's figure vanished.

Li Yiheng awoke with a start from an endless nightmare, sitting up abruptly from his bed.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar room, he murmured to himself, "Could it all just be a dream?"

He then propped himself up, slowly clenching his five fingers into a fist, carving deep grooves into the wood beneath him.

Seeing this, Li Yiheng was overjoyed. The bed was made of second-grade spirit wood, golden silk wood, yet he had damaged it with his bare hands, which showed just how strong his physical body was.

“It’s not a dream! I really met my master. His title is Hongmeng Daozun,” Li Yiheng murmured.

Suddenly, something occurred to him, and fear appeared in his eyes. He walked into the courtyard, ignoring the servants, and looked up at the bright moon, his expression complex and indescribable.

"So this is the true nature of the world. No matter what, I will protect this world and ensure its eternal existence. The throne of the future Human Emperor is mine alone; Master, please witness this from heaven!"

Clutching the wordless heavenly book in his hand, he could vaguely see countless patterns covering it, each one a mark left by laws or even the Great Dao.

Although he only glimpsed the tip of the iceberg, the immense mysteries within still greatly benefited him.

Above the heavens, Ying Zheng heard Li Yiheng's mutterings: "Little fellow, I have gone to great lengths to help you, do not disappoint my expectations."

After passing on his lineage, Ying Zheng quietly comprehended the collision of Daoist essences among numerous Great Luo and Primordial Realm experts in the void.

There are many who act in this way. To be able to directly confront the Great Dao of the Primordial Chaos without risk is a truly rare opportunity.

At this moment, the figure of the Holy Mother Turtle Spirit appeared, and her aura was connected with the demon race scattered throughout the world.

Turning to look at Ying Zheng, he stared in that direction and said, "You chose this human boy? He doesn't seem to have any advantage."

"Yi Heng has an excellent temperament and may go even further," Ying Zheng said thoughtfully.

“Junior Brother, your time in the Dao is still short. Once you have experienced the vicissitudes of time like I have, you will not be in this situation today.” The Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit looked weary.

Ying Zheng thought of the ancient times and fell silent, unsure how to comfort him.

The Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit said nonchalantly, "When the primordial world shattered, the Heavenly Dao collapsed, and the Investiture of the Gods was torn apart, we were already free. Now, many of the elite disciples of the Intercepting Sect have become Great Luo Immortals, and the best of them have even attained the Primordial Chaos Realm. Weren't those tribulations also a form of training?"

"What Senior Sister says is absolutely right." Ying Zheng could only nod in agreement.

"You should continue your enlightenment; it's not appropriate to disturb you." The Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit lost interest in conversation and quietly observed the situation below.

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, closed his eyes, and entered a meditative state. A century passed in the blink of an eye.

This vast, interconnected world, spanning four hundred million miles, now has only a handful of powerful factions remaining.

The strongest was the Killing Path Imperial Court established by the Blood Sea Asura Clan, followed by the Southern Dynasty led by Li Yiheng.

On the demon side, there is the Demon Court established by the Howling Moon Silver Wolf, who is known as the Heavenly Demon.

The Dragon Clan, the Qilin Clan, and the Phoenix Clan formed a three-clan alliance, operating independently from the three other forces and ruling their own territory.

The Remaining Hundred Army Alliance is a coalition of many surviving inheritors of the Great Luo Chess Pieces, unwilling to accept defeat and seeking a final desperate attempt.

As for the original world-ruling Sun and Moon Dynasty, only its capital city remains. If it weren't for the checks and balances among various forces, it would have been destroyed long ago.

Because of its legitimacy, no one would allow another to seize the Sun and Moon Dynasty. Everyone would wait until a victor was determined before replacing it as the legitimate successor.

Seeing this situation, the Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit sighed, "Junior Brother's eye for talent is indeed exceptional. How about we join forces?"

"Li Yiheng, whom you chose, is currently second in power. Letting you win is a way to keep the spoils within the family. You must defeat that old bastard Minghe and see if he dares to act like a senior in front of me again!"

Upon hearing the decision of the Holy Mother Turtle Spirit, Ying Zheng awoke from his enlightenment: "Senior Sister, you truly live through the primordial era and possess abundant wealth. You don't even care about such a reward. I am currently in a difficult situation, so it would be impolite to refuse!"

Subsequently, the Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit and Ying Zheng each issued their instructions.

Upon hearing his master Ying Zheng's voice, Li Yiheng was immediately thrilled: "Master, is that you?"

Ying Zheng replied with a smile, "Indeed. I am very pleased with your achievements. Now I have discussed it with my senior sister. You will go and unite the demon forces. You will take the lead in this matter. If your two forces merge, are you confident that you can defeat the Asura Clan, the Three Races Alliance, and the Hundred Masters Alliance in one fell swoop?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yiheng's face, which remained unchanged despite the passage of time, gained an added air of kingly authority: "With the help of the demon race, Master, the throne of the Human Emperor is surely within your grasp!"

Looking at the confident Li Yiheng, Ying Zheng smiled with satisfaction: "Very good, you should prepare to receive the demon army."

At this moment, on the Demon Court's side, the Heavenly Demon Wolf Howling Heaven, as the leader, was filled with resentment: "Master, is there really no other way?"

The Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit's gaze was cold as she decisively ordered, "With your current power ranking last, what chance do you have? You are nothing more than a rabble that can only defeat the Sun and Moon Dynasty and those remnants of its army. This is your master's command, and you must not disobey!"

After speaking, the spirit of the Turtle Spirit Mother vanished. Wolf Howling's eyes were filled with helplessness and resentment!
But he had no other choice. Lang Xiaotian knew all too well that his master possessed immense power.

If you truly anger her, she can turn the world upside down with a flick of her wrist, returning it to its original state—it's as easy as lifting a finger.

Therefore, despite his great reluctance, Lang Xiaotian had no choice but to obey the orders of the Holy Mother Guiling.

At this time, the Blood Sea Domain, which occupied almost half of the world, was becoming increasingly powerful due to the growing strength of the Killing Path Imperial Court established by the Asura Clan, and the Blood Sea Great Dao was prevalent in the world.

The entire region was almost turned into a sea of ​​blood, regardless of whether they surrendered or died in battle.

This world seems destined to return to the embrace of the sea of ​​blood, where the souls of the dead are swallowed up and transformed into the Asura race.

Those who surrendered were also transformed by the sea of ​​blood; the former did so willingly, while the latter were forced into it; the former retained their consciousness, while the latter were reborn.

Sensing the current situation, the Styx Ancestor, who was hovering above the Sea of ​​Blood, directly ordered the current Asura King: "The time has come. First, take down the Three Races Alliance to strengthen our power, then wipe out the Demon Race and the Nan King. The rest are not worth worrying about!"

Asura King's eyes flashed with bloodlust: "I will obey the Ancestor's decree!"

"Pass down the order: expand the Blood Sea and march into the territories of the three races!" King Asura turned and gave the order.

In an instant, the endless sea of ​​blood surged into a raging torrent, beginning to invade the East China Sea, the 100,000 volcanoes, and the coast of the East China Sea.

Due to the Blood Sea's unique properties, it can continuously transform enemies into living forces.

As long as the three-race alliance is defeated and its power absorbed, the Asura race's strength will surely expand again, enough to wipe out the demon race and the Southern King.

Once these two tough challenges are overcome, the throne of the Human Emperor will be within his grasp, and he will also be able to bring victory to the Ancestor.

To secure victory for the Styx Ancestor is the mission of the Asura race born in this world, and also the goal that the Asura King strives for throughout his life.

No one can escape this catastrophe; all things will eventually succumb to the sea of ​​blood.

However, once the Asura clan mobilized its forces, the leaders of the three-clan alliance—the Golden Dragon King, the Qilin King, and the Phoenix King—would not stand idly by.

If the territory falls, there will be no chance of a comeback.

Whether to fulfill the ancestor's command or to glimpse a glimmer of hope for further progress, they all swore to resist to the death: "All members of the Three Races Alliance, follow me into battle!" "Quickly send messages to the Southern King, the Demon Race, and the Hundred Masters Alliance for reinforcements. If our Three Races Alliance is destroyed, they will be next. They should understand the principle of 'if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold'!" the Golden Dragon King said in a deep voice.

Phoenix King's dazzling feathers transformed into mysterious light, instantly piercing through the air and disappearing: "I will go and seek help immediately!"

However, a wild laugh echoed through the sky as the Asura King held a banner imbued with the aura of a sea of ​​blood.

As the Blood Sea Asura Banner was raised high, millions of clansmen behind him raised the smaller Asura Banners they had consecrated with their hearts and minds: "Want to ask for help? Wishful thinking! Blood Sea Sky Formation, seal the heavens!"

In an instant, endless crimson light illuminated the sky, obscuring the entire heavens with a sea of ​​blood. The Blood Sea Asura Banner commanded the Lesser Asura Banners to form a grand array, the crimson light permeating the air!
The terrifying crimson pillar of light was formed from the origin of the world's blood sea, and the crimson light shield almost completely sealed off the territory of the three-race alliance.

Seeing this, the Golden Dragon King had a bad feeling and shouted urgently, "It must not be completely sealed off! Otherwise, the consequences of a trapped beast fighting will be unimaginable!"

"Dragon fights in the wild!"

"Phoenix King, Qilin King, why aren't you making a move!" the Golden Dragon King roared impatiently.

Knowing the situation was critical, the Qilin King and the Phoenix King unleashed their full power: "Southern Bright Fire, burn away the void!"

"The Qilin treads the heavens, suppressing the firmament!"

Immediately afterwards, the three enormous Dharma images of the five-clawed golden dragon, the five-colored phoenix, and the white jade unicorn crashed into the sky-covering blood-red light barrier.

However, whether it was the Southern Bright Fire or the Golden Dragon King's immortal technique "Dragon Battle in the Wilds" which amplified his physical strength dozens of times, their power to tear apart stars was in vain.

Even the White Jade Qilin King's Qilin Stepping Heaven Step could not shake it in the slightest.

They could only watch helplessly as the protective shield formed by the blood energy and blood patterns completely sealed off their territory.

The Golden Dragon King was forced back several steps before regaining his footing, and stared intently at the crimson light curtain that covered the entire territory.

The golden dragon's eyes pierced through the void, seemingly trying to see through the origin of the great formation. Then it said in a deep voice, "This formation is connected to the origin of the Blood Sea. Unless a single strike destroys the power of the Blood Sea, it will be difficult to shake it!"

"To destroy the Blood Sea requires the power of a god or demon, but it will take us at least several years to reach that level. Even if we were to activate our secret techniques at any cost now, we would probably still be unable to shake it. What should we do?"

Phoenix King's beautiful eyes darted around, and a look of anxiety appeared on her stunning face, making her look incredibly charming.

However, the Asura King ignored her beautiful figure and his sinister smile grew even wider: "Under this Blood Sea Sky Formation, the alien races will surely be suppressed. What will you use to resist!"
"The time has come for the Asura clan to serve their ancestor and establish a glorious legacy! Attack! We must conquer all three clans!"

The Asura race, with a population of hundreds of millions, is a veritable army. Emerging from the endless sea of ​​blood, they rush straight towards the Dragon, Qilin, and Phoenix races.

A massive, overwhelming figure of Asura arrived, carrying immense killing intent.

This is the Asura race, formed from pure blood and slaughter, and the ferocity it exudes is terrifying.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary creatures would have to give way to it, and it would even take several times the number of troops to encircle and annihilate it.

Moreover, with hundreds of millions of Asuras besieging the three races, the outcome of this battle was already predetermined.

At this time, the Hundred Masters Alliance, the Southern Dynasty, the Demon Court, and the Sun and Moon Dynasty all received news of the Blood Sea's attack on the Three Races Alliance.

Li Yiheng, who was discussing how to integrate the power of the demon race, suddenly stood up, his palm flashing with spiritual light: "Sky-Gazing Mirror, appear!"

The mirror surface appeared, but only the blood-red light obscured it, making it difficult to see the scene inside the Blood Sea Sky Formation.

Li Yiheng's hand gestures changed, increasing his magical output.

To ascertain the situation within the camp in order to formulate a countermeasure, whether to provide support or take advantage of the situation to advance.
At this moment, the Asura King, who was manipulating the power of the Blood Sea to transform into a crimson dragon and rushing towards the Three Kings, shouted angrily: "Who are you, you petty scoundrel, daring to spy on my clan's great formation! Get out!"

The Blood Sea Asura Banner in his hand connected with the power of the Blood Sea, repelling the probing force back.

A power permeated with bloodlust, killing intent, and resentment surged into the sky from the Heavenly Mirror. Li Yiheng's face showed shock: "What? Annihilation!"

Knowing that it would be difficult to easily block this power, Li Yiheng decisively shattered the Sky-Gazing Mirror formed by the secret technique.

Without the Mirror of Heaven as its coordinates, this power could no longer be sustained.

Asura King sneered, "You're smart to know what's good for you! But the main event now is for the three of you, so let me give you a good welcome!"

The Asura King stared menacingly at the three kings, his body surrounded by a dragon formed from the source of the blood sea, displaying a majestic aura and an overwhelming power to suppress the world.

Seeing the Sky-Gazing Mirror shatter, Li Yiheng silently looked at Lang Xiaotian and said in a deep voice, "Given the strength of the Blood Sea Asura Clan, we must prepare for the worst. The three-race alliance will find it extremely difficult to withstand the Blood Sea!"

Wolf Howling Sky continued, "That's right. The Blood Sea must be confident of victory to have mobilized its entire force. After absorbing the power of the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans, its strength will increase dramatically, and its next move will definitely be to attack us. Therefore, the alliance between the two clans should be formed sooner rather than later and must be carried out as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, Li Yiheng smiled and said, "Brother Xiaotian is a man of great wisdom and righteousness, truly a blessing to the demon race. I guarantee that from now on your status will be second only to mine!"

Lang Xiaotian's expression was complex. Although he was unwilling to submit to Li Yiheng's command.

But he had no choice but to obey the ancestor's command.

Moreover, Li Yiheng had already proposed an alliance when he arrived, showing him great respect by not treating him as a subordinate, so Lang Xiaotian had nothing to say.

"What the Southern King says is absolutely right. We should act swiftly and expedite the merging of the Southern Dynasty's strength with that of the Demon Court," Lang Xiaotian said solemnly after a moment of silence.

Li Yiheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Despite having his master's orders, he was not afraid to defy the Demon Court.

However, if they cannot be truly subdued, allowing them to cause trouble in the rear will also be a great problem.

Now that he is willing to submit, that could be better.

After the Demon Court, Tian Yaolang Xiaotian, the leader of the Southern Dynasty, and Li Yiheng, the Southern King, reached a consensus, the two bordering territories quickly suppressed dissenting voices, began cooperation, and jointly practiced combined attack techniques and military formations.

At the same time, they studied military tactics in order to exert greater combat power in future major wars.

At this moment, Li Yiheng and Lang Xiaotian both put aside the matter of rescuing the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans.

Regardless of whether they could break through the mysterious array connecting to the source of the Blood Sea, the two were not confident in dealing with the aggressive and malevolent Asura race.

If it weren't for the fear of the weapons they possessed, the Asura race, with twice the manpower, would have crushed them long ago.

The Asura King's attack on the three-race alliance with the Blood Sea Asura Clan must have been meticulously planned.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, it is best to remain calm and wait for the right moment.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. The Golden Dragon King chosen by the Ancestral Dragon, the Phoenix King chosen by Pan Feng, and the White Jade Qilin King chosen by the Ancestral Qilin were all submerged in the endless sea of ​​blood.

However, the three beams of light vaguely formed a magic array that was interconnected, protecting them from the erosion of the blood sea's ferocious aura.

"Even with the innate advantage of the Blood Sea, your Asura race will find it difficult to transform this world into a Blood World and establish a human imperial court! We will witness your defeat here and suffer the same fate as us!" The three kings roared in unison.

The Asura King scoffed at such a curse, lazily saying:
"Given the characteristics of your cultivation techniques, I am indeed unable to defeat you in the short term. But you are already out of the game. When I completely transform this world into the Blood Realm and ascend to the throne of the Human Emperor, that will be your death day. At that time, I will personally present the crown of victory to my ancestor, and you can just watch!" (End of this chapter)
