Traveling across the globe for the first time

Since Zhang Tao became the leader of the human race, he has shouldered the heavy responsibility of the human race's survival. The only people he can trust are Li Zhen and Nan Yunyue. The betrayal of the Yang family patriarch directly led to the collapse of the Tiannan Cave and the sacrifice of tens of thousands of warriors. Therefore, he has to repeatedly test even the Zhen Tianwang and other supreme beings. He lives in constant fear, afraid that a single mistake will lead to the destruction of the human world by the cave.

At that time, he already possessed the cultivation level of an Emperor. In order to hide his strength, he was often hunted down by the True God of the Underground Cave, and even earned the title of a disgrace to the True King.

After Zhang Haoran and Fang Ping rose to power, the human race won several battles and gained more resources. They finally managed to suppress the underground world, but then a group of old fogies emerged. Through a series of battles, they finally defeated those old fogies, and then the emperor reappeared...

Zhang Tao, being the world's best player is really tough!

They went to great lengths to ensure the survival of humanity.

Now that he knows his greatest enemy has been defeated, humanity's dominant position is unshakeable, and the three realms will usher in true peace, he feels a mix of emotions.

Everyone could understand Zhang Tao's feelings. Even some strong people had tears in their eyes when they thought about those days of fear and anxiety.

After laughing for a while, Zhang Tao calmed down, his smile growing even brighter. He said softly, "I know you find it troublesome, so leave all these things to me!"
All you need to do is provide them with military support to render them incapable of resistance!
I believe that the crimes committed by emperors are different; some are masterminds, while others are merely accomplices. Therefore, the severity of punishment should vary. I will try my best to be fair and just…

Fang Ping was no longer upset; he said excitedly, "Physical punishment alone isn't enough; we also need to confiscate all their property..."

The Divine Forging Envoy immediately chimed in, "Yes, yes, yes! Bring out all the Emperor's resources, especially the forging materials. Then, I will forge a divine artifact for each of you."

Fang Ping immediately retorted, "That won't do. The divine artifact you forged cannot be distributed directly. As the saying goes, one cannot accept a reward without merit. You can give the artifact to me first, and then reward whoever makes a contribution later."

The God-Forging Envoy is now at the ninth level, but he is not afraid of Fang Ping. He immediately retorted: "Only by tailoring the design to the individual can the most suitable divine weapon be forged. Only standard weapons can be handed over."

Those who came together this time were all prepared to risk their lives in the final battle. Although the battle ended before it even began, actions speak louder than words! This kind of behavior should be encouraged…”

The emperor's collection must contain only the finest items, and the forging master intended to take this opportunity to improve his forging skills, so naturally he was unwilling to create a bunch of standard weapons.

Just as everyone was having a heated discussion, a spatial fluctuation was heard.

Whoosh! A figure appeared in front of everyone, and the powerful aura emanating from him caused everyone to take a few steps back.

However, after seeing who it was, everyone breathed a sigh of relief; it turned out to be the Heavenly King of Zhen.

He said with a gloomy face, "Zhang kid, you're quick on your feet!"
"As soon as I saw the fighting starting on your side, I wanted to go and help, but the Dao Tree blocked me outside the Heavenly Gate, saying it was an order. What do you mean by that? Why won't you let me join the battle?"

In fact, the Heavenly King had good intentions. After his strength reached the ninth level, he began to win over those real projections and ask them to help weaken the power of the rules within the passage.

He had just managed to recruit a few people when a major battle broke out. He rushed over but was blocked outside the Heavenly Gate, which greatly annoyed him.

Zhang Haoran rolled his eyes, offering no explanation, and thought to himself, "What are you, a mere ninth-level expert, doing meddling in our battle as sixth-level experts?"
Luckily, I had the Dao Tree block the Heavenly Gate beforehand, preventing that old fellow from getting in, otherwise it would have been a real problem.

The Heavenly King knew this was sophistry, but he was mainly frustrated because all his efforts had been in vain.

Everyone looked at the Heavenly King with strange eyes, as if to say, "It's a good thing you didn't participate in the battle, otherwise things wouldn't have gone so smoothly."

"cough!"

The Heavenly King quickly changed the subject, looking into the depths of the Great Dao Universe and saying, "If you still want to capture the Heavenly Emperor alive, you'd better act now, or it will be too late!"

Everyone immediately looked towards the center of the source area and found that the large ball of light representing the Heavenly Emperor had dimmed considerably, while several of the ten attacking balls of light had ignited with blood flames, indicating that they were preparing to unleash a fierce attack.

The Heavenly Emperor originally planned to take several emperors down with him even if he perished, but the successive deaths of his reincarnation and clones caused him to suffer a strong backlash. Now, he can't even take any emperors down with him, let alone have a chance to fight back. He is being completely suppressed.

Those emperors also hated the Heavenly Emperor to the extreme. Without the hole in the source land, they would still be high above, emperors revered by all, instead of becoming the old silver coin that is neither human nor ghost.

Most importantly, Zhang Haoran has already dealt with the reincarnation of the Heavenly Emperor and will soon settle accounts with them. Before that, they want to kill the Heavenly Emperor first. Even if they cannot redeem themselves through merit, they can still vent their anger. Therefore, several emperors burned their blood and energy and began to unleash their ultimate moves.

Fang Ping panicked when he saw the situation. The Heavenly Emperor had left him with valuable experience points, so he said anxiously, "Senior Brother Zhang, hurry up and do it! It will be too late if we wait any longer. The Heavenly Emperor is the culprit. He hasn't been judged yet. We can't let him die like this."

Zhang Haoran chuckled lightly, "Hehe, what's the rush? I'm the one who calls the shots in the Three Realms now. If I let them live, they have to live; if I let them die, they can die!"

Despite this, his movements were anything but slow. A flash of sword light, and his figure vanished. When he reappeared, he was already at the center of the source area.

His body trembled slightly...

hum!
The sword domain opened and rapidly spread outwards, soon enveloping the entire source land. All laws were transformed into sword laws, and even the source land rifts that had begun to rage due to the great battle were suppressed at this moment.

In fact, it was precisely because these cracks had diverted some of the emperor's power that the Heavenly Emperor was able to hold on until now.

The killing move that the emperor had just unleashed transformed into streaks of sword energy, stopping less than a hundred meters from the Heavenly Emperor.

The Heavenly Emperor let out a long breath, but the despair in his eyes did not fade; on the contrary, it intensified. He knew that the fact that the other party blocked these attacks did not mean that they would let him go, but rather that they did not want him to die so easily.

The Divine Emperor and the others no longer dared to act rashly. They were now within the realm of swordsmanship, and their strength was greatly suppressed.

Especially those emperors whose strength is only at the fifth level, who can no longer maintain their emperor strength, this is the center of the source land, filled with endless negative energy, and some people can no longer withstand the invasion.

The Beast King's eyes turned bloodshot, and his blood and spiritual power fluctuated violently. He roared, "What do you mean by this? Why are you stopping me from killing the Heavenly Emperor?"

If it weren't for him, how could I have ended up like this? Being trampled on by a junior like you..."

"Get out of here, you have no right to speak."

With a thought, Zhang Haoran unleashed a sword light that sliced ​​across the Beast King's neck, sending its head flying high into the air, its golden body reverting to that of a demonic beast.

It was immediately put away; it was a fifth-tier demon beast, a good source of ingredients.

Now the Beast King is just a head, with a long sword piercing its mouth, and it can no longer make a sound.

Zhang Haoran glanced at the Divine Emperor and the others and said coldly, "All of you, stay put and await your fate!"

Then he looked at the Heavenly Emperor and said, "Want to die? It's not that easy."

You should work as a laborer for a while first!

I promised Fang Ping that I would kill you once he had grown stronger. Of course, there will be subsequent punishments, but you don't need to know about those for now.

"Your task now is to transform the power of chaos to provide energy for the Three Realms." As soon as he finished speaking, the sword energy in front of Tian Di began to disintegrate, turning into chains of different colors that entered his body and bound him tightly.

During this period, he could do nothing but instinctively absorb the power of chaos and transform it into the primordial energy of heaven and earth.

Zhang Haoran raised his hand, preparing to throw it into the Three Realms Barrier, where it would be converted into energy.

The Heavenly Emperor coughed up a mouthful of blood and said in a disheveled state, "I am inferior in skill, and I am willing to accept any punishment."

However, you shouldn't have killed my reincarnation in the dueling arena.

Only that energy can fill the gap in the source.

Now that all that energy has been absorbed by the dueling arena, you'll have to figure out how to fill this hole yourself. Even if you kill all eleven of us, it won't be enough to fill it.

There is a huge gap between the initial stage of the sixth rank and the advanced stage of the sixth rank. Moreover, most of these emperors are fifth-rank beings. All their energy combined cannot match that of the reincarnated body.

The Heavenly Emperor's words were not intended to provoke anyone. Those emperors were already struggling to resist the erosion of negative energy, so it was impossible for them to jump out and rebel.

He was genuinely worried that the hole wouldn't be plugged. It's said that when a person is about to die, their words are kind!

Perhaps this is the only shred of conscience he has left!

Of course, this may be because the greater the damage he caused to the Three Realms, the more severe the punishment he would receive. Although the Heavenly Emperor did not know how he would be punished after death, he knew that the other party must have such means.

Zhang Haoran asked nonchalantly, "What hole? You mean this puncture?"

Why should I block him?

This time, not only the Heavenly Emperor, but even the Sovereigns were somewhat taken aback. There's such a hole at the center of the Great Dao Universe, and if you don't plug it, it will only get bigger and bigger.

Could it be that the other party intends to destroy the Origin Dao? This thought sent chills down everyone's spine!
Zhang Haoran didn't care what they thought. With another wave of his hand, chains of sword energy entered the emperor's body, binding their cultivation.

Having reached the sixth level of strength, each step is a new level, and for him, killing the God Emperor and others is now as easy as stretching his hand.

Their strength is suppressed, and they are more severely eroded by negative energy.

Suffering a bit is to be expected; this is retribution!

Besides, these old guys have been corrupted for tens of thousands of years and haven't died yet, so they won't die anytime soon.

However, we can't let them be corrupted too much. If they lose their minds, then there's no sense of accomplishment in punishing them.

Just as Zhang Haoran was about to move them out, a thought suddenly struck him. He looked towards the distance and saw that the Heavenly King and the Divine Forging Envoy had joined forces to tear through the Nine Heavens, leading everyone towards the center of the Origin Land.
To his surprise, it wasn't just human powerhouses who came; people from other forces, including Hong Kun, also came along.

With a thought, Zhang Haoran conjured a sword light beneath each person's feet, instantly teleporting them over. This sword light could prevent them from being corrupted by negative energy.

There are too many people here this time, including true gods. If they are corrupted by the negative energy at the center of the source land, they will soon go mad.

Everyone looked down at the hideous black hole and felt a chill run down their spines. If it weren't for the suppression of the sword domain, they would have been sucked to death instantly.

What's terrifying isn't just the suction force. This is the center of the source, where all the negative energy from the past tens of thousands of years of the Three Realms has gathered. This energy has formed a visible black smoke, and just a little bit of it can drive a true god mad. No wonder those emperors went insane.

Fang Ping had a strong heart; after a moment of shock, he quickly regained his composure. He looked down at the hole and frowned, saying, "I'd only heard there was a hole here, but I didn't expect it to be this big!"
Do we really have to fill it with the Immortal Source?
There's no sun in those underground caves. Now that the outer realms are our territory, the forbidden zones will soon submit. We can't stay in darkness forever, can we?

The earlier news reached the outside world, and everyone panicked when they heard that Zhang Haoran did not intend to fill the hole in the source land. Now that the Heavenly Emperor and the Sovereign had been subdued, the Three Realms would belong to humanity in the future, and it would not be good to leave such a huge hole here.

Those cracks also need to be suppressed. They don't want to end up like the current emperor, corrupted by negative energy and becoming neither human nor ghost after they attain enlightenment.

At that time, no one could guarantee that they wouldn't think about leaving the place.

If they also start plotting, then it will be another cycle, and perhaps in ten thousand years, the powerful beings of the Three Realms will be the ones rebelling against them.

The God-Forging Envoy glared at Fang Ping and said, "Just say what you have to say, don't keep bringing up the Immortal Source!"

Lao Tzu explained long ago that he was forced to create the Immortal Source in the first place.

He pointed at the bound emperor: "Back then, all nine emperors issued the order together. How could I, a mere eighth-level cultivator, possibly resist?"

The God-Forging Envoy suddenly changed the subject, saying with some excitement, "It wouldn't matter if we really filled the hole with Immortal Source."

If all else fails, we can just build another one and hang it in the sky as the sun.

However, this time we need to create something simpler. Remove all those unnecessary features; just make sure it provides light and ensures energy circulation…”

"cough!"

Zhang Tao glared at the God Forger, his meaning clearly saying, "How dare you talk about Fang Ping like that? How did you bring up forging immortal sources again?"
Let's talk about the hole in the source area first; we'll discuss the sun later.

Zhang Haoran watched their performance, but his mood wasn't very good. Ever since he showed his strength, his relationship with the others seemed to have become distant.

He said irritably, "Just say what you have to say. Do you think I'm the kind of person who gets arrogant just because I have power?"

"hehe!"

Fang Ping immediately relaxed and chuckled, just about to speak.

Zhang Haoran waved his hand to interrupt, saying, "I know what you're trying to say!"
Lao Tzu said not to plug the hole, but he didn't say not to solve the problem at the source. The hole is still useful!
rest assured!

I already had a plan.

The hole in the source area is indeed still useful, as it can gather all the negative energy of the three realms here, which is something that ordinary magic treasures cannot do. At least it cannot be repaired before the plan is completed.

Otherwise, without this hole to collect negative energy, martial artists would develop inner demons during their cultivation.

Hearing this explanation, everyone was immediately relieved, as long as they weren't asked to suppress the rift like an emperor. (End of Chapter)
