The Heaven-shattering: Starting from Simulating Becoming an Emperor

Chapter 5: Transformed into a Demon Fetus
"Did you hear that?"

"A few years ago, visitors from outside the region came to Taixu Mountain."

"The ancient sages preached the truth, and I don't know if this is a great opportunity that hasn't been seen in thousands of years."

Inside the teahouse, the young man was talking animatedly, explaining science to the strangers around him. His eyes were fanatical and his excitement was evident in his words.

The companions rested helplessly, having heard the same words countless times.

If the journey wasn't so long and they had to hurry, I'm afraid the boy could talk here all day.

Just as the young man said, on an unknown day several years ago, a second sun was born in the sky.

Just as people were wondering, another sun slowly fell down.

All of a sudden, both humans and gods were terrified, as if the end of the world was coming. However, as time passed, the sun gradually became smaller, and finally became as big as a meteorite, streaking a long golden stream across the sky.

The divine light was clearly visible even in the daytime. It was so brilliant that it made people unable to take their eyes off it, and it finally fell on the top of Mount Taixu.

Some people suspected that it was a rare treasure and wanted to go and investigate. However, before they even reached the top of the mountain, a voice clearly reached their ears.

"The ancient saints opened a temple, recruited many disciples, and preached the Dharma ten years later. Those who were predestined could all receive it."

Everyone on the planet learned the news. Those who longed for immortality immediately put everything aside and rushed to Taixu Mountain like crazy.

Zhang Huan saw all of this.

"Humph, this fancy method is surprisingly effective against the weak."

Zhang Huan smiled confidently. This planet was the tenth one he had visited.

The accumulated experience is already perfect, and there is a set of special methods to attract attention.

If it were any other planet, Zhang Huan might not dare to be so ostentatious, but after coming here, Zhang Huan deliberately lurked for a period of time and had already figured out the ins and outs of this planet.

Not to mention whether there are saints or not, there haven't even been a few kings here in the past few thousand years. Although there are many mortals, there are only a few Taoist sects that cultivate immortals, and the resources of the techniques are firmly controlled.

Zhang Huan likes this kind of planet the most, as it offers low risk and high reward. He can easily take the local Taoist tradition into his pocket with just a little coercion or inducement.

There were many difficult to deal with local forces on the previous planets. When they encountered the tough Zhang Huan, they left some seeds and let them fend for themselves.

People like this opened up many temples and allowed people from all over the planet to practice magic.

Cultivation and aptitude will increase every time, and with the accumulation of resources, cultivation will gradually improve even at the saint level.

If one calculates carefully, it would take several decades on average to travel to ten planets, and another ten years to reorganize the local organizations and preach. Before one knew it, Zhang Huan had already been in the starry sky for more than three hundred years.

After several years of operation, Zhang Huan's Taoist school was thriving, with many disciples. Several local sects chose to surrender. In order to prevent betrayal, Zhang Huan took away a wisp of the original spirit of these high-ranking members.

Even if they were unwilling, they would have to change their ways in the future and provide Zhang Huan with a steady supply of new believers without even a thought of rebellion.

After the sermon, seeing that there were overwhelmingly many people practicing magic on the planet, Zhang Huan began to look for his next target.

"Eternal Star Region?"

In the boundless void, Zhang Huan captured a warship and avoided its mother planet like the plague, avoiding the pirate organization far away.

After educating several planets, Zhang Huan was successfully promoted to Saint King.

At the same time, he discovered a horrifying truth.

On a planet, all the people were practicing magic skills that were almost the same as Zhang Huan's.

When he first discovered this, he was shocked and uneasy, and for a moment he thought he had arrived at the lair, the mother planet, of the founder of the magic.

But after investigation, the results were unexpected.

These people practiced the same martial art, but their cultivation was constantly being taken away without them realizing it.

There is a genius who was born with a sword body. He is over fifty years old but is still hesitating about turning into a dragon. He is already a local master. Most of the others can hardly achieve even the fourth level.

Moreover, the people on the planet have old faces at a young age, and their life essence is almost depleted.

It's not a problem of the external environment, but that those who demand it are too greedy, treating it as an inexhaustible, renewable fuel, and exploiting it to their heart's content.

Zhang Huan did not dare to act rashly. He frowned and thought in the void.

There are people like him who have set their sights on the ancient stars of life in the starry sky, and use this technique to accumulate resources and thus quickly improve their cultivation.

Where did the other party's skills come from?

It can even take away the essence of life. Compared with it, Zhang Huan's is like a defective version.

In the past, Zhang Huan had always believed that there was only one magic skill and that its creator had long since died. But the current situation made him think deeply.

Judging from its magical nature, the person who created this magic skill must be a genius. His talent and courage are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. He must be a monstrous character.

If the other party is not dead, hide behind the scenes to fish and wait for the ripe leeks.

In this case, Zhang Huan and the other party are also chess pieces. In the eyes of the founder of the magic skill, they are no different from people who practice the sub-magic skill. They are also resources, and they will be harvested sooner or later.

Zhang Huan thought of the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Art. Comparing the two, the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Art was definitely superior, but this magic art also had its merits. It was a different approach. It had the shadow of Heaven-Swallowing, and was somewhat similar to the situation when the Supreme One devoured all living beings during the dark turmoil.

"This approach is not different from the original intention of the magic power."

Zhang Huan's heart sank unusually. Ever since he discovered the magic power, he felt like he had fallen into an invisible net.

Unless you abandon your own practice and start practicing another method
Zhang Huan shook his head. This life was the most promising one. Hundreds of years of accumulation would be burned down like this. Zhang Huan would never accept it.

"No matter whether he is a demon or an ancient, if he dares to block the way, he must die even if he is a quasi-emperor!"

There was a bloodthirsty light in his eyes. Zhang Huan had the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Jar in his hand. It was unknown who would eat whom at that time. If he really met Zhang Huan, he would definitely eat him until not even a bone was left!

[After being promoted to Saint Queen, you discovered the conspiracy hidden in the magic power and desired even stronger power. At this time, you are over 400 years old. ]

[You met a saint who practiced magic on an ancient star. After searching his soul, you were convinced that there was a fisherman behind the scenes.]

[I heard that there was a trace of the elixir of immortality in a certain area. In order to change my fate, you searched for it for thirty years, but ultimately returned empty-handed.]

If it was Emperor Cheng, then everything would be easily resolved. Although the emperor's will was still undecided, Zhang Huan also had hope.

As one’s realm deepens, it becomes easier to cross the starry sky.

Not long after, a piece of news that shocked the universe went viral.

A quasi-emperor dressed in ancient royal robes charged into the ancient starry sky road and started a killing spree on the only true road!
He chose a perfect time. He took action when almost all the contemporary geniuses and evildoers had appeared, and he slaughtered them like mowing the grass.

All those below the quasi-emperor are ants!
Not to mention there is also an imperial weapon.

Several imperial gates were broken, millions of corpses floated on the surface, and countless talented seeds were killed, including those who had reached the pinnacle of great sages and were hailed as young emperors.

The prosperous era was about to begin, but it ended before it even began. The most evil creatures of the era all died, and the people who were left had no right to fight for the throne.

If they were given a few hundred more years to become quasi-emperors, this group of people would not have died so easily on the Ancient Starry Road.

For a time, the public was outraged, and countless people were cursing the mysterious quasi-emperor, hoping to find out his identity.

However, this person seemed to have jumped out from between a rock, and along with the ancient imperial weapon, they disappeared without a trace.

"Whose handiwork is this? Quasi-Emperor and Emperor Soldier, there aren't many who can meet these two conditions."

The only reason they dare to act so cruelly is because it is profitable. There are only a handful of forces in the universe that have such conditions. With the information Zhang Huan has, it is easy to find them out.

Maybe someone was confident that he could ascend to the throne, but was too far behind, so he asked someone to do something for him.

It may also be that some people simply do not want an emperor to appear in this world, and the restricted area fits this motive very well.

Ten thousand years ago, bloody battles took place in various forbidden areas in the Void, forcing them to fight to the death or lie dormant, thus preventing the dark turmoil.

After so many years, some supreme beings may have been unable to hold on any longer and had to devour living beings to prolong their lives. Therefore, it is reasonable to speculate that they would order their subordinates to do such things.

No matter what the truth is, there will definitely be a major earthquake on the Ancient Starry Road in the near future, impacting countless star fields.

So many people died, and the Great Sage who was guarding the city also died or fled. The country is in chaos and disorder, and troubled times are about to begin.

It was the right decision not to overestimate one's own capabilities and go to the ancient road. Zhang Huan couldn't help but sweat, hoping that this turmoil would not affect him.

In the following five hundred years, Zhang Huan discovered several planets where people practiced magic skills. He did not hide it and directly asked them all to switch to the magic skills he modified.

[After more than a thousand years, you finally achieved the Great Sage status. ]

[Even if you have the help of magic to cleanse your aptitude, compared to those evildoers who can reach the level of Great Sage in three to five hundred years, your aptitude can only be said to be just barely passable.]

The holy power expanded violently, easily covering an entire star field; the energy and blood were vast and boundless, and could shatter the galaxy in the blink of an eye. This unparalleled power was intoxicating.

This magic skill has been completed and there is no subsequent chapter. Zhang Huan has a premonition that if he wants to go further, unless he has a great opportunity, the Great Sage will be his end.

Given his current situation, he would never be able to break through the threshold of Quasi-Emperor in his entire life.

He planned to follow the example of the ruthless emperor and the ancient Luangu who appeared in later generations, and transform himself into a demon fetus and be reborn from the cocoon.
