Fighting the Masked Man

In the Heavenly Court, inside the main hall, a dozen or so beautiful figures stood gracefully. Their appearances were unparalleled, and their temperaments were all different, yet they were all eye-catching, like the bright moon.

When Yao Yan arrived with Zi Yan, the latter naturally noticed several unfamiliar faces inside the Heavenly Court. Her deep, bright purple eyes couldn't help but glance at Yao Yan beside her. Even after becoming the Heavenly Emperor, he still seemed to have not changed his lecherous habits. She wondered how Sister Cai Lin managed to control him.

"Father~" A melodious and clear voice came from the crowd, and then a girl in a light green dress walked out. Her appearance was like that of a fairy, and her eyes were like a pool of clear water. Her smile revealed a sense of elegance and nobility.

There is a blue lotus mark between his brows, with a faint, chaotic light flowing around him, exuding a sense of mystery and nobility.

This woman is naturally Yao Yan and Yun Yun's daughter, Yao Luoxian. Compared to the little girl of the past, she has now truly grown up, and her growth rate is extremely exaggerated. Even with the Ice Soul Sacred Lotus suppressing her physique, she still entered the late stage of the Immortal Grade Heavenly Supreme in just over twenty years, and is only one step away from the Saint Grade realm.

However, with her near-perfect Chaos Body and the peerless sacred artifact Ice Soul Lotus, her combat power is enough to contend with the top-tier Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereign.

"This must be Lady Ziyan!" Yao Luoxian asked with a smile in her eyes, her gaze as clear as water. This was the first time she had met this young lady who had been in seclusion, and she couldn't help but feel curious.

Little girl? !
Zi Yan blushed slightly. In this scene, with so many people watching, and being called "little mother" by her elder brother's daughter, she still felt a little awkward. Of course, she was also secretly pleased, and her gaze towards Yao Luoxian softened.

"Your father just told me about you. In his haste, he didn't prepare a gift for you... So I'll give you a drop of Dragon-Phoenix Essence Blood. It contains one of my innate divine abilities, which can reverse time and space for you, and change your own state. Even if you are in a situation where you are sure to die, you can reverse time and space to recover!" She raised her hand and forced out a drop of purple-gold essence blood, which then turned into a dazzling and deep gemstone and floated in front of Yao Luoxian.

"Thank you, Miss Ziyan~" Yao Luoxian's eyes brightened slightly. She knew the relationship between Yao Yan and Ziyan, so she did not stand on ceremony with Ziyan and raised her hand to accept the drop of dragon-phoenix essence blood.

"Zi Yan has successfully evolved?" Cai Lin, dressed in a purple-red dress, spoke softly, her gentle voice carrying a hint of concern.

"Of course, after preparing for so many years, if I still fail, wouldn't that make me look incompetent?" Yao Yan laughed upon hearing this. He had made many preparations over the years to ensure Zi Yan's smooth evolution, but the most crucial thing was that his strength had increased too quickly. Many things that were impossible in the past were no longer problems.

“Dragons and phoenixes hold a special position on the Divine Beast Continent. Now that Zi Yan has successfully evolved, those super divine beast races on the Divine Beast Continent should be getting restless,” Gu Xun’er said.

"Even if I can't sit still, I can only sit. The Heavenly Court no longer needs the support of the Divine Beast lineage." Yao Yan smiled indifferently, not taking it to heart. Originally, he wanted to use Zi Yan's identity to unify the Divine Beast Continent and thereby transfer the Qi of the Divine Beast lineage to the Heavenly Court, but now there is no need for such trouble.

When the army of the underworld invades the Great Thousand World, the entire Great Thousand World will be plunged into despair. At that time, no one will have a choice, and you will be the only hope.

It wasn't that Yao Yan insisted on taking this path, but rather that the will of the Great Thousand Worlds had to be weakened. Without weakening it to a certain extent, Yao Yan dared not act rashly. Without a 99% certainty, what difference was there between that and suicide? Especially at this final step, he had to be extremely cautious.

Yao Yan will not repeat the mistakes that the Soul Emperor made in the past.

"Father, when will you let me go out? You promised me!" Yao Luoxian looked at Yao Yan with some impatience and asked. She had been cultivating in the Heavenly Court all these years and usually trained in the Tianluo Continent. She had never been to other continents, let alone the extraterrestrial evil races.

As the war between the Great Thousand World and the extraterrestrial evil race intensifies, she is also somewhat tempted to join in, since all living beings in the Great Thousand World will eventually participate in this battle.

"Go if you want to." Yao Yan pondered for a moment, but this time he did not stop Yao Luoxian. Flowers kept at home cannot become true strongmen. He had high hopes for Yao Luoxian and hoped that she could keep up with his pace. Naturally, he would not protect her at home forever. Appropriate training would be beneficial to her growth.

A hint of anticipation flickered in Yao Luoxian's usually cold eyes. She longed to see what the extraterrestrial evil race and the people of the underworld were like. She had heard about them for years but had never seen them in person.

"Be careful when you go out!" Yun Yun reminded her.

"Yes, if it's really dangerous, I'll call for my father to save me!" Yao Luoxian replied with a smile.

Upon hearing this, everyone smiled, but their gazes turned to Yao Yan. Gu Xun'er even asked directly, "How much more time do you need? According to the latest intelligence, the front line of the Great Thousand World shouldn't be able to hold out for much longer. At most, it will show signs of collapse in ten years."

"...There should be enough time." Yao Yan was silent for a moment, then said softly.

Upon hearing this, Gu Xun'er stopped asking questions. She believed that Yao Yan knew what was going on. If things ultimately proved impossible, she could simply accompany Yao Yan on his journey, which would be a decent outcome.

……

……

The Heavenly Emperor's legitimate daughter was born. In her early twenties, she had already reached the late stage of the Celestial Supreme Realm. Her talent was like that of an immortal, and her combat power was terrifying. When she first entered the front line of the battlefield, she froze the space with the Ice Soul Holy Lotus. With every move she made, the chaotic energy surged, and she forcefully killed a Heavenly Demon Emperor and several Ghost Emperors from the Underworld. As for the other soldiers, there were countless others.

For a time, his reputation even surpassed that of Lin Dong, the Martial Ancestor who had recently risen to prominence.

Within the Demon Prison, in the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons.

The Evil Emperor slowly opened his eyes, looking at the throne that had shattered once again in the palace. His gaze was completely unwavering, filled only with extreme coldness and indifference. It seemed that even if the extraterrestrial evil race were wiped out, he would not be moved in the slightest. After all, these dead Heavenly Demon Emperors would enter the Underworld and become Yin Puppets, still active on the battlefield.

Beside him, the Underworld Lord floated in mid-air, surrounded by a vast flow of fortune. Countless living beings provided immense faith power, nourishing this body of faith and making it increasingly terrifying and real.

Besides the two of them, in the center of the Ten Thousand Demons Palace, endless demonic energy surged, and the Heavenly Evil God sat cross-legged, consuming the enormous blood feast prepared for him by the Evil Emperor.

Twenty years have passed, allowing the Heavenly Evil God to regain his seven eyes. In addition to the three on his forehead, the demonic eyes between his palms have also opened, leaving only the demonic eyes in his heart and navel unopened.

"Heavenly Evil God, you have recovered most of your strength. That's enough. We should go and surround and kill the Heavenly Emperor, lest things get complicated!" The Evil Emperor spoke, his cold voice breaking the twenty-year peace of the Myriad Demon Palace, revealing a hint of bloodlust and gloom.

The Heavenly Evil God, whose eyes had been tightly closed, slowly opened his dark eyes, which were as deep as an abyss. He calmly looked at the Evil Emperor, frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "We have already waited for twenty years. Do you still care about this last little bit of time? Our goal is not only the Heavenly Emperor, but also the origin of the Great Thousand World. In my current state, I cannot use the Heavenly Mandate Technique, let alone forcibly devour the origin of the Great Thousand World!"

Logically speaking, after absorbing such a huge amount of blood, his strength should be enough to recover to the state of eight eyes. However, he was stabbed by the Evil Emperor before, which damaged the evil eye in his heart and even injured his source. The Evil Emperor was even more audacious and stole six drops of his source essence blood from his body!

Thinking of this, a chilling killing intent flashed in the eyes of the Heavenly Evil God. Once he had taken over the will of the Great Thousand World, he would immediately target the Evil Emperor and the Underworld Lord!

Only one god is allowed in this vast world, and that god is He Tianxie Shen!
"You're too slow! You're recovering, but the Heavenly Emperor may still be growing. If you knew his growth history, you might not be able to sit still like this!" the Evil Emperor said coldly.

"You are so wary of him?" Tianxie Shen asked, somewhat surprised.

"We clashed once in the lower plane, but I was slightly inferior and had my plane embryo stolen. I was eventually forced to flee the lower plane. The current situation is exactly the same as in the lower plane back then. I don't want to experience a second defeat. And if we fail this time, we won't have a third chance!" The Underworld Lord slowly opened his eyes and said in a cold voice.

"The Great Thousand World is not a lower plane. Even if he receives the blessing of the power of all living beings, he cannot obtain the origin of the Great Thousand World. If it were that simple, the Immortal Emperor would not have chosen to sacrifice himself to seal me away!" The Heavenly Evil God did not take it seriously. How could the experience of the lower plane be compared with the Great Thousand World? The two are not even in the same league.

Arrogance is the original sin... The Underworld Lord thought to himself. The Heavenly Evil God had made the same mistake as the Soul Emperor, always liking to use his past experience to judge his current opponent, unaware that he had been manipulated by the other party from beginning to end.

"How much longer do you need?" the Underworld Lord asked bluntly.

"It depends on the amount of blood food you provide. Ordinary blood food contains too little essence and vitality. I need blood food at the level of a Demon Emperor!" The Heavenly Evil God said in a low voice, his eyes flashing with a scarlet cold light.

The moment the words fell, the demon emperors present trembled slightly. After all, in the eyes of the Heavenly Evil God, they were no different from the creatures of the Great Thousand Worlds and could become his food at any time.

"If you want blood offerings, go to the battlefield and get them yourself!" the Evil Emperor said indifferently.

Yao Yan had no interest in raising the Heavenly Evil God to its peak condition. The half-dead Heavenly Evil God was exactly what he needed and the best pathfinder, making it easier for him to deal with the Heavenly Evil God afterward.

"I need your help to hold off the Heavenly Emperor!" said the Heavenly Evil God.

"Instead of coveting those blood offerings, why not join me in besieging the Heavenly Emperor? With the Heavenly Emperor's strength, even a fraction of his flesh and blood is worth billions of blood offerings!" The Underworld Lord said calmly, looking at the Heavenly Evil God.

A cold, scarlet light flashed in the eyes of the Heavenly Evil God. He did not want to fight the Heavenly Emperor so soon. After all, in his eyes, the Evil Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor were no different from the Heavenly Emperor. They were all beings he needed to deal with. Eliminating the Heavenly Emperor ahead of time might not be a good thing for him.

"Alright, I'll wait until I regain my full strength at eight eyes!" He said in a low voice after a moment of silence.

It's probably impossible for him to return to his peak condition. The Evil Emperor and the Underworld Lord are clearly wary of him. In that case, he can only recover most of his strength first, at least to ensure that he has a means to counterattack, so as not to become a fish on the chopping block.

“Alright!” The Underworld Lord looked at the Heavenly Evil God and calmly replied, then closed his eyes.

The Evil Emperor then looked towards the group of demons and ordered, "Maha Tian, ​​go and bring back the Heavenly Emperor's daughter. She is currently active on the battlefield... If the Heavenly Emperor makes a move, I will stop him!"

The daughter of the Heavenly Emperor?!
Maha Tian slowly opened his cold eyes, a flicker of emotion appearing within them, and a cruel and ferocious smile spread across his face. (End of Chapter)
