The sea sacrifice is like a long river of time, with no end in sight, boundless and limitless.

With the four original lands falling silent, the Sea Sacrifice has flourished again, and even in such a remote place, cultivators still pass by.

The two cultivators looked up at Kong Zun high above, their eyes filled with curiosity, and they even wanted to take the initiative to get closer to him.

"I heard that a new Dao Ancestor has been added to the Eight Paths of Reincarnation, and he may flourish in the future. We should join him."

Why not persuade this fellow Daoist to go along?

The two cultivators whispered to each other, thinking that Kong Zun wouldn't hear them, but they greatly underestimated the terrifying power of the supreme giant.

"Hmph!" A deep voice resounded in the ears of the two cultivators, and their bodies instantly stopped moving, as if they were frozen in place.

The next moment, a white light suddenly appeared, enveloping the two cultivators and completely disintegrating them.

In the blink of an eye, the two cultivators' bodies completely disappeared, as if they had never existed, as did their magical treasures.

If these two cultivators hadn't mentioned the Eight Paths of Reincarnation, then Kong Zun, as a supreme being of the Soul River, wouldn't have stooped to the level of these weaklings and would have simply left quickly.

"court death!"

The chilling words echoed in the air above the sacrificial sea, sending shivers down everyone's spines. Fortunately, Confucius had important business to attend to and did not fly into a rage and start a massacre.

Otherwise, several nearby worlds would suffer as a result and be implicated.

Kong Zun's figure flashed above the sea of ​​sacrifice. Many scenes appeared in his eyes, all of which were the scenes of him trying to win over the Dao Ancestors in the past.

The world has changed, and several Dao Ancestors have perished, either dying in battles for altar fragments or being eliminated by powerful beings from the heavens.

But many more Dao Ancestors survived and hid in various places along the sea.

A thoughtful glint flashed in Kong Zun's eyes. The places where the Dao Ancestors were hiding were too remote. They could easily reach them using the Cycle of Reincarnation, but he was unwilling to come into contact with anything related to Jiang Yun. He was worried that he would lose control of himself and become angry on the Cycle of Reincarnation.

However, Kong Zun was also wary of Jiang Yun's ability to use that terrifying Reincarnation Flame on the Reincarnation Path.

"Enough!" He sighed softly, no longer trying to use the cycle of reincarnation, but instead directly crossing the sacrificial sea, spending a lot of time to arrive at a very secluded world.

This world has long been shattered, sunk deep in the sea of ​​sacrifice, and no one cares about it.

The seawater washes over the boundary, each surge emitting a mournful cry, as if recounting the world's past glory.

Countless millennia ago, a great war broke out here, affecting this world. All living beings perished in an instant, leaving no last words.

Kong Zun stared at the shattered world, a cold smile playing on his lips.

To ordinary cultivators, this dilapidated realm was nothing special, and even Immortal Kings couldn't see anything wrong with it. But to Kong Zun, however, there was something very wrong.

He saw that a very hidden formation covered the realm, concealing many secrets.

A powerful being lives in seclusion here.

Without the slightest hesitation, Kong Zun waved his hand, and a phantom of his true form appeared behind him. The towering peacock image blotted out the sky, and even the mere existence of the phantom caused the surrounding space to tremble.

The Great Road appears and disappears, and the sea churns and churns.

"Hmm?" The reclusive expert was instantly awakened, breaking free from his seclusion. However, before he could make any move, a terrifying aura descended.

boom!
An endless expanse of white light appeared, separating this shattered world from the sacrificial sea.

The world suddenly dimmed and was completely sealed off. Whether it could be completely destroyed by the white light is another matter, but it had already disappeared from the sacrificial sea.

This is a powerful technique; only a few powerful supreme beings can perform the ritual of offering sacrifices to the sea. The white light already indicates the identity of the newcomer.

The reclusive expert broke out in a cold sweat, his hair stood on end, and his face paled.

"Master Kong, why are you like this?"

He was also a Dao Ancestor with great combat power, but he was still far inferior to Kong Zun and was no match for him.

If it weren't for the pre-arranged formation, he would have already fallen into Kong Zun's hands.

Kong Zun was very disdainful, grinning coldly. The phantom behind him was also affected, and a contemptuous expression appeared on its face.

"Changhui Daozu, do you really not know why I've come?"

It turns out that this Dao Ancestor was Chang Hui. After failing to seize the altar fragments, he decided to hide himself and search the entire Sacrifice Sea. Finally, he found a remote and dilapidated realm and set up a powerful array.

But to everyone's surprise, Kong Zun still managed to find it.

Changhui was filled with endless speculation. Perhaps the seeds had already been sown in his past interactions with Kong Zun, making it impossible for him to hide anymore.

He regretted it, but faced with the immense pressure from Kong Zun, he had no choice but to reluctantly apologize to Kong Zun. He did not deliberately avoid it, but he was unable to contact Kong Zun.

Changhui spoke earnestly, expressing his respect for Kong Zun, but Kong Zun's expression remained unpleasant.

Although Changhui spoke kindly, he did not remove the great formation. His hands moved constantly, using mysterious techniques to replenish the formation's losses.

Countless golden rays shot out from all parts of the shattered world, all of which were arrangements made in advance by Dao Ancestor Changhui over the past tens of thousands of years.

Mysterious runes rose up, filling the gaps in the great formation.

Under the white light, the great formation trembled continuously, emitting deafening roars, and teetered on the brink of collapse, but ultimately it did not break.

Kong Zun's face darkened. He hadn't expected Chang Hui to dare to turn him away and treat him like a thief. This was something that had never happened before.

"Changhui, immediately dismantle the great formation! I have something to say to you!"

His voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

Changhui smiled bitterly to himself. Kong Zun was too powerful, only weaker than Liu Shen of the Great Dao and Ming Yu of the Underworld, and his strength far exceeded his own.

Even with prior preparations, one can only resist for a short time and cannot sustain it in the long run.

In reality, every breath the great formation maintained amidst the white light consumed thousands of years of his accumulated power.

Confucius was furious, yet he remained calm and composed.

For Changhui, this kind of loss was endless, a bottomless pit. He kept complaining in his heart that the losses were too great!
However, he still did not remove the great formation and continued to use his methods to persist, while he began to persuade Kong Zun to leave.

Kong Zun was both surprised and furious. He had come to Chang Hui to persuade him to join the River of Souls, so that the Underworld would not stand out alone.

He was prepared to be rejected by Changhui, and even planned to give Changhui a fragment of the altar to win him over.

He hadn't expected that Changhui wouldn't even see him, leaving him with a cold shoulder!

An uncontrollable rage surged within him. How could a supreme being of the Soul River be denied even the presence of another Dao Ancestor? What an utter disgrace!
The next moment, the terrifying power contained in the white light increased even more, and the great formation creaked and groaned everywhere, as if it would collapse at any moment.

The entire shattered world trembled violently, the ground cracked, the sky shattered, and the phantom of Kong Zun appeared at the edge of the sky, as if he might appear in this shattered world at any moment.

That will be the end of this world, it will be completely destroyed.

Mountains will collapse, valleys will tremble, seas will dry up and rocks will crumble; the world will be destroyed.

All the scenes fell into Changhui's eyes, making him feel a chill down his spine. Was this the terror of the existence of a unique and ancient source land?

too frightening.

At this moment, he couldn't help but think of Jiang Yun. "Dao Yuan was actually able to withstand Kong Zun's full-force attack?"
No! Kong Zun's attack back then was even more terrifying, yet he's holding back now!

Changhui also saw this scene from a distance at the time, and felt a sense of emotion, but was not particularly moved.

Without knowing Kong Zun's true strength, it's easy to underestimate the value of Jiang Yun's performance that day.

Now that he was facing the Venerable One's attack head-on, he finally realized the extent of Jiang Yun's strength.

Even if one could only hold out for a moment in front of Confucius, it would be a remarkable achievement, something to be proud of.

Dao Ancestor Changhui remained silent and persisted, but he soon lost his composure. His energy expenditure was too great, and all the powerful forces within him were mobilized to maintain the great formation.

And the treasures he had collected over countless millennia were being consumed at an extremely rapid pace.

There's no suspense; if this continues, he will definitely lose.

"At that time, the enraged Kong Zun might kill me directly, or at least suppress many sacrificial spirits," Chang Hui finally spoke again.

“Supreme Master Kong, I know your purpose, but now is not a good time to join the River of Souls.”

He continued to decline, hoping that Kong Zun could leave first and that the matter of joining the Soul River could be discussed later.

The grand sacrifice was delayed, and the Desolate Heavenly Emperor once again killed a strange Immortal Emperor with his invincible power. A huge change occurred, and joining the strange race now is too risky and unnecessary.

Changhui spoke eloquently, constantly changing his words, hoping to make a decision before the grand ceremony began.

This was a delaying tactic, and Confucius was well aware of it.

If Changhui were to open the great formation and plead with him, he might actually agree.

But now the situation is different. Changhui refuses to even see him, which infuriates him. He vents his anger, fueled by Jiang Yun, on Changhui.

Kong Zun was furious. He thought that Chang Hui had not completely fallen and was not a Dao Ancestor of the strange race. Even if he really killed him, it would not be considered killing each other. A cold killing intent appeared in his eyes.

He planned to use Dao Ancestor Changhui as a warning to others, to intimidate all the Dao Ancestors who had ever been in contact with him, so that they would no longer dare to waver and would all join the River of Souls.

From then on, the River of Souls will regain its prestige and once again overshadow the Underworld.

A glint of greed appeared on his face. This was a great feat; not only could he regain all the face he had lost in the past, but he could also prove Kong Zun's methods.

The change in Kong Zun's mind affected the illusory image of his physical body, causing the illusory image to condense and almost become a solid.

Every single tail feather was clearly visible, and the white light was even purer, radiating astonishing power.

Faced with the immense pressure from Kong Zun, Dao Ancestor Changhui fell silent, no longer speaking, and focused all his efforts on maintaining the great formation.

He sensed the killing intent and felt some regret. If he had opened the great formation and sincerely submitted earlier, things might have been different.

It's too late now.

At this moment, many powerful figures, Dao Ancestors from different forces, have appeared in the sky above the sacrificial sea.

When Kong Zun unleashed his full power, it was like a boulder thrown into a lake, causing a huge uproar and alarming many Dao Ancestors.

"Weren't all the dark creatures dormant? Only that Dao Source is still active! How come Kong Zun has also appeared?"

A Dao Ancestor exclaimed in alarm. He happened to be passing by and was shocked to see such a scene. He hurriedly notified the heavens.

There are concerns that this is the prelude to a completely new great war.

"If the four primordial lands are about to take action again, then..." Many Dao Ancestors trembled in their hearts, as if they had returned to the days of continuous battles.

"It's too dangerous, I should hide again."

"This is bad! I also obtained fragments of the altar before. If the four primordial lands become active again, it will definitely attract powerful beings among the dark creatures!"

Many people are thinking about this.

However, some Dao Ancestors were frowning and deep in thought, looking up at the heavens above.

The figure of the Desolate Emperor remained conspicuous, high in the sky, with his eyes closed in deep cultivation, as if he had existed between heaven and earth since time immemorial and would continue to exist forever.

Upon seeing this incredibly powerful figure, the Dao Ancestors felt reassured, but then endless doubts arose in their hearts.

If the Desolate Emperor showed no unusual behavior, then how dare the dark creatures resume their activities?

Do you really think the Desolate Emperor won't draw his sword?
That terrifying sword light was powerful enough to cut down even an Immortal Emperor, and the experts of the Strange Clan would absolutely not dare to ignore it.

"There might be more to this than meets the eye," a Dao Ancestor murmured, drawing agreement from the other powerful figures.

At this moment, some Dao Ancestors noticed something, recognized Dao Ancestor Changhui's identity, and all showed expressions of surprise.

Changhui Daozu had long been in secret contact with the strange clan, which many people knew, but how did they end up fighting amongst themselves?
This has become another unsolved mystery, leaving many powerful figures pondering the matter and unable to reach a conclusion for a long time.

In the silence, more Dao Ancestors arrived upon hearing the news. This remote place deep within the Sacrifice Sea was perhaps the first time it had attracted so many powerful figures.

After watching Kong Zun depart, the Dao Ancestors in the Soul River were all worried, fearing that Kong Zun would cause a huge conflict, which was something they did not want to see.

But soon, the fears came true. Although Kong Zun did not attack the Underworld, he fought a fierce battle in the sky above the Sacrifice Sea, attacking the secluded residence of a Dao Ancestor, which attracted a large number of powerful figures to watch.

This will surely alarm the supreme beings of other primordial lands. What will happen next? The Dao Ancestor of the Soul River was terrified and could not predict.

They kept looking up at the sky, fearing that the Desolate Emperor might suddenly wake up.

Some Dao Ancestors who had experienced the great battle above the heavens had begun to tremble. That terrifying sword light was their eternal nightmare. Although they eventually escaped, they could never forget it.

The news spread throughout the four primordial lands, and the Netherworld Prison, which had just begun its seclusion again, opened its eyes with an unhappy expression.

Kong Zun's actions have caused such a commotion; it's really excessive. As the supreme leader of the four origin lands, how could he lead the way in violating the agreement?

This is something the underworld cannot tolerate.

The floating earth of the four poles, Xu'ao was also somewhat angry. He rarely appeared in the world, and now he was also angered by the actions of Kong Zun.

"Nonsense!"

The roar resounded throughout the four primordial lands, alarming the giants, who dispatched their avatars to the sea sacrifice.

Unlike Kong Zun, although they were angry, they were not blinded by rage and were still worried about the Desolate Emperor, so they dared not use their true forms.

In an instant, terror enveloped the world, and the eerie aura was almost visible to the naked eye, causing all the Dao Ancestors to feel fear and dread.

Some cultivators who came to watch the spectacle were of insufficient cultivation level, and some even instantly fell into darkness and became dark beings.

This was a catastrophe, and cries of alarm echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

Is a new war really about to break out?

"Run!"

Faced with these supreme giants, even a powerful Dao Ancestor could only retreat and dare not confront their sharp edge directly.

Only Kong Zun remained unmoved, continuing his fierce attack on Dao Ancestor Changhui, until the voice of the Underworld finally rang out:

"Kong Zun, that's enough!" (End of Chapter)
