A journey of survival starting from Zhetian

Chapter 671 Heavenly Secrets Blockade
The progenitor raised his palm, looking at the bloody hole in his palm that was almost pierced through, his expression grim.

"I was wounded by a man who had reached the end of his road."

He studied the remaining power in his palm for a while and suddenly realized that a part of it was beyond the comprehension of even the power of the progenitor. It was like a hazy dream that would dissipate in an instant, yet it would cycle endlessly. He couldn't help but feel a little alarmed.

"With this transformation in power, it may only be a matter of time before Changye reaches the same level as me. All the great Daos, the countless rules and orders, and even the primordial matter can no longer restrain Him."

Strands of sacrificial-level power emanated from the ancient coffin behind him, while wisps of ominous substance drifted into his palm from the slightly open coffin opening. All of these were displaying strange yet astonishing power, constantly repairing and healing the wound.

However, a corner of the chaotic reflection of the illusory starry sea faintly appeared, encompassing, deceiving, and assimilating all forces that attempted to cover and expel it, constantly stealing the power located at the end of the road, and using it to fight against itself.

Every minute, every second, this attrition continued, even forming a dangerous cycle with the sword marks left by Shi Hao on the sacrificial Dao Fruit, pulling His combat power down step by step.

"Such stubborn strength."

The progenitor's gloomy expression was as if dripping water. The Dao injury left by the long night would not have much impact on his current combat strength. To heal the injuries on his body, he only needed more power to cleanse them and wash them away with a large amount of ominous substances.

However, by sheer coincidence, the special Dao injury caused by the Long Night and the sword mark from the sacrificial Dao Fruit resonated in a way that seemed like a joke, both restraining His power and preventing Him from calmly eliminating this negative state while exerting all His strength to suppress the Long Night.

The progenitor looked back towards the heavens and could vaguely see a figure that He feared, emitting bursts of hearty laughter.

"Ara-chan deserves to die!"

Just as the progenitor decided to resolve the long night as soon as possible, obtain His Dao Fruit at the end of the road, and turn his attention back to Him, his originally sharp gaze suddenly became a little dull, and his lips and face twitched slightly.

There, in a state of severe injury, Changye reached out and pulled out a reflection of the past from the river of time. With a flick of his sleeve, he transferred all his injuries to this body, and then sacrificed it with the Emperor's Spear.

In a mere instant, Changye's condition returned to its peak, without burning even a trace of his original essence. Having clashed with the Ancestor in a terrifying attack, he should have been in a terrible state.

When everything was over, the powerful aura of the End of the Road permeated the land of Calamity. Not only were there ominous, blood-red progenitors lying around, but even the various Immortal Emperors on the battlefield of the heavens, who had stopped their attacks, were quietly lost in thought. Some even pointed tremblingly at the Long Night, too shocked to speak.

A few breaths later, an ancient Celestial Emperor moved his lips slightly, "It's truly astonishing how this Long Night Celestial Emperor managed to do that."

"This is a Dao injury at the level of a sacrificial Dao. Even if a normal being at the end of its path survives such a terrifying attack, it may not be able to erase this injury over the long years. It will inevitably leave an indelible mark on the Emperor's body."

The empress, who was walking on a path strewn with pollen, carefully recalled the incredible scene that had just unfolded, and said with a hint of uncertainty, "The magic of the Long Night Immortal Emperor seems to involve the spirit of all things, is related to the history of time, and touches upon extremely terrifying causal destinies."

"As for more, I cannot see clearly or understand thoroughly. I can only be certain that the 'spirit' of all things is one of the core elements of this suspected 'substitute death' method."

Meanwhile, a certain Dark Immortal Emperor muttered to himself, "This is even more unpredictable than my own methods. Moreover, such terrifying combat power is comparable to Huang before he achieved the Dao of Sacrifice. In terms of recovery ability alone, Huang was not as good as Him before he achieved the Dao of Sacrifice."

Long Night brandished the Emperor's Spear, gazing at the Ancestor, his eyes gleaming with increasing clarity, and he began to murmur incoherent words. Before the Ancestor could launch another attack, He stepped forward, once again igniting His own ultimate source, unleashing a second, devastating strike.

No, this strike was even more dazzling and brilliant than the one before.

The intensity of that attack had begun to cause the great Dao of all worlds to turn into terror, and all laws and principles were actively distancing themselves, causing a truly empty "nothingness" to appear at the tip of the spear, possessing a trace of the sacrificial Dao characteristics of cause and effect and destiny being empty, all Daos not existing, and only oneself existing.

The progenitor laughed in fury, "It seems I have been underestimated. You, a junior, actually dare to fight me. You have quite the ambition!"

With a wave of his hand, he summoned his deadly weapon, a long scythe. A strange and ominous aura of bloodlust emanated from it. When it swung down, its terrifying power shattered everything. The crimson scythe light covered Changye's figure, splashing out streaks of blood and shattering into pieces of bone.

In the vast universe, in the endless starry sky, the terrifying crimson can be seen in all the heavens. It is so terrifying that it is terrifying. It has been a signpost left in the long river of time since the beginning of each era, and the traces engraved in it have severed all causes and effects and fate.

The moment the Emperor's Spear made contact with the long scythe, cracks appeared, and it almost shattered, about to be completely severed. The "law" engraved within it and the "way" listed within it dissipated and ceased to exist in the world.

However, the long night still held, and He did not die on the spot; He was still some distance from eternal silence.

After retreating and gaining a moment to catch his breath, he escaped the terrifying realm where all paths were empty. With another wave of his sleeve, he instantly returned to his peak condition.

His vital energy, imperial body, laws and principles, and even weapons were all as if they had been reshaped, revealing not only a trace of injury, but also a stronger aura than before.

Inside the [Gray Fog Space], Xiong Mo clapped his hands, his emotions running high.

"That's right, that's it! Let's do it again!"

"At this time, when it is not advisable to sacrifice the Calamity Land and forcibly break through the realm to perform a Dao sacrifice, this strange ancestor in its prime is the benchmark for the 'Return to One Method' Dao sacrifice!"

"As long as I continue to fight against it, as long as there are more clashes, I will eventually be able to fully understand the mysteries of the sacrificial path!"

Countless three-dimensional runes are converging and rearranging themselves on the sacrificial method of "Reunification Method". Among the several promising ways to break through the realm that were previously deduced, they are constantly deepening and evolving, gradually laying out a breakthrough method that is most suitable for Him.

As Xiong Mo secretly enhanced his Long Night clone with a vast amount of his essence, his gaze towards the ominous, blood-red ancestor grew increasingly fervent. It seemed he had found something that could replace the Calamity Earth.
-
Beyond the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

The God Emperor strolled back from the chaos, looking at the vast universe so close at hand, his expression filled with a touch of melancholy.

"Finally almost home. These past few years have been quite bittersweet."

He recalled the nearly two hundred thousand years that had passed, and the various things he had experienced while traveling through the chaos and setting foot in different worlds. He truly felt that the universe from which he was born was an incomparably beautiful place.

During his travels, what impressed the God Emperor the most was the various laws of the chaotic worlds that differed from those of the larger universe, which truly broadened his horizons.

The strangeness of some of the laws of nature is such that even searching through the entire vocabulary of the universal interstellar language would not be enough to describe the feeling he had at that moment of contact.

"The laws of water and fire in this small world are inherently flawed, and the missing part is just right to allow the two to be combined to achieve a strange 'perfection'. Then, the two really gradually become one in the consciousness of that small world."

"Water is no longer water, and fire is no longer fire. The two are in a very subtle state, constantly changing rapidly according to the way the observers of all realms observe. There is no pattern to this change. Even with my true spiritual power at the Immortal King level, I cannot completely analyze it and can only use it to a limited extent."

"But it is precisely in such a bizarre world, where the laws of immortality and humanity are broken, that living beings have emerged, a relatively prosperous cultivation civilization has developed, and a true immortal has appeared who has overcome the tribulation to become an immortal."

To this, the Divine Emperor could only sigh, "I've never seen anything like this before."

It is truly incredible that one could survive the tribulation of becoming an immortal and attain the true immortality in such a harsh environment.

Secondly, the state of existence of certain heavens and earth also caused the God Emperor to feel a subtle sense of helplessness.

What shocked him most, and even left him stunned, was the great world called "Universe," which was composed of 186 smaller worlds arranged in a ring, interlocked with each other.

“Each small world contains hundreds or thousands of star rivers. The laws of humanity within them are intact, but the laws of immortality are subtly damaged, splitting apart in each world. Consequently, the cultivation system that exists there is extremely dependent on the laws of the current world, making it difficult to break free from them, whether it is to improve cultivation or enhance immortal skills.”

"This means that every being in a small world needs to undergo 'ascension' 186 times, almost like re-cultivating the immortal laws they comprehend 186 times, before finally returning to their birthplace. Only then can they hope to integrate a complete immortal law, thus triggering the tribulation to become an immortal and attaining the true immortal fruit."

"I wonder which Celestial King set this up. It's so underhanded."

When the God Emperor went to the great world called "Universe", he actually saw a supreme human being who had "ascended" to the point of developing psychological trauma, rebuilding his own laws, and even vomiting during the process.

Now, the God Emperor is truly grateful that he was born in the universe of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, with a secret realm seed growing in his body, and a "secret realm method" that leads directly to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor. The will of the Great Universe is also very active, able to restrain and even punish certain immortal beings who want to arbitrarily tamper with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

With a few more sighs, the God Emperor, filled with homesickness and anticipation, stepped into the realm of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Then, in the next moment, he froze.

He sensed something terrifying and unknown, lurking in the shadows, quietly operating, and directing its chilling "sharpness" at his own Immortal King level true spirit.

They will die, they will definitely die. Even a life force at the level of a Celestial King is a fragile thing that will break at the slightest touch under such terrifying "sharpness"!
At the same time, the wisp of consciousness remaining in the [Spirit Realm] also received a special message from the will of the universe.

[Identity verification has been initiated; the Nine Heavens Array is locked. Please do not move around.]
[Investigation of the True Spirit and Self-Awareness]
[Traces of Time Under Review.]
[Legal reasoning and deduction in progress.]
[The Eye of the Candle Dragon is descending.]
As soon as this message appeared, the God Emperor saw an enormous dragon eye manifest from the void. Its black and white eyes, imbued with the power of timeless magic, stared straight down, intently observing his true spirit, his Dao body, and his memories, as if they had seen through all his secrets.

A suffocating sense of terror quietly spread from his mind, but just as it was about to take over his heart, the dragon's eye disappeared without a trace, and he seemed to have been unharmed in the slightest, as if the suffocating terror was just a dream.

[Identity verification complete. Welcome back, Divine Silkworm Immortal King.]
The God Emperor's consciousness in the [Spirit Realm] stared at the information manifested before him, and he held back his breathing, taking several deep breaths of chaotic energy to calm the shock in his heart and restore his normal thinking ability with his powerful Dao heart.

The will of the universe called him "Divine Silkworm Immortal King," and the God Emperor did not react much and accepted the title.

Although he appears to be only at the third stage of the Human Realm, he has actually cultivated for over 500,000 years. Most supreme emperors who embark on the path of immortality in the mortal world have lived at least four lifetimes. If his path is correct and his transformation has not encountered any problems, he is most likely at the sixth stage. It is not impossible for him to have already lived to the seventh stage.

Most importantly, he has cultivated the laws of immortality to the level of a supreme true immortal, and the power that his true spirit can unleash is already at the level of an immortal king. Even if he were to bring down the tribulations of the rules of the heavens now, he would have a great chance of overcoming them. Although after overcoming the tribulation he would only obtain an almost bottom-tier immortal king Dao fruit, his combat power would be similar to that of an immortal king whose Dao fruit is incomplete.

However, the logic and intensity of this censorship were enough to shake even a human being whose true spirit was that of a Celestial King.

He murmured, "Sifting through the traces of time, judging from the true spirit and self-awareness, and finally having the gaze of the Candle Dragon Celestial Venerable, who already possesses the power of a quasi-Immortal Emperor, fall upon us, along with the locking force known as the 'Nine Heavens Array'."

"When did this kind of censorship procedure appear? Has something earth-shattering happened in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths? This is terrifying."

The God Emperor stepped into the edge of the universe and immediately used his divine power to communicate with all the myriad paths, activating the divination method.

At the same moment, the consciousness within the [Spirit Realm] also extended out, using the authority of a Celestial King to search through this vast ocean of information for the information that triggered this investigation.

But after a few breaths, the God Emperor's expression stiffened again; he had received a stern warning from the will of the universe.

[Warning: You do not have permission to investigate!]
[The rules and logic related to this celestial secret have been locked, with a strength of ████!]
[Given your current privileges, the only information you can currently obtain is the name of the blocker.]
[The one who blocks this celestial information: Xuanhuang Tianzun]
