Chapter 529 Never Ends (The Finale)

What did Rahu see that ignited his fury?

"Impure Old Demon, where did you get this knife?" Even though he was fighting two against one, Rahu was still full of energy and had the strength to question the Impure Demon Ancestor who had suddenly appeared.

With the added strength, he grasped the blazing sunlight in one hand, and with a slight effort, the ethereal ray of light was crushed and transformed into tangible radiance that filled the ground.

The God-Slaying Spear thrust out once more, clashing with the Impure Demon Blade of the same origin. The two destructive torrents collided and annihilated each other.

Sheathing his sword and standing on the same side as Chen Xingzhi, the Impure Demon Ancestor chuckled: "What do you think? Of course, it's the equipment you dropped back then. By the way, your God-Slaying Spear is very useful, especially after it transformed into my shape."

As he spoke, he gently stroked the blade with his hand.

Under his touch, the Impure Demon Blade trembled slightly, making Rahu's face turn green.

"So back then, it was you who couldn't have done this if Xuanjun and the others had been watching over you, unless Xuanjun was in cahoots with you."

After a quick deduction, Luo Hou concluded: "You must have some illicit connection with Xuan Jun."

Before he finished speaking, he turned around and struck the Blood Jade Ruyi that was hurtling towards him with his spear. Then he fired six more shots, blocking the sneak attacks from the Human Emperor's Decree and other spiritual treasures.

"Tsk, the sneak attack failed."

Not far behind him, the Taoist in black robes curled his lip and opened the Earth Book to protect himself.

Looking at the seven beams of spiritual light surrounding the other party, and then at the only spiritual treasure in his own hand, Luo Hou had to admit that he was jealous.

“It’s alright. Once I’ve completely refined the spiritual light of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, I’ll separate a few strands to create spiritual treasures.”

He reassured himself, but remained wary of the three people who had unknowingly surrounded him in a three-way standoff.

Why would Xuanjun, the Impure Old Demon, and Yanyang suddenly join forces against him? Could it be that they had planned this all along?

"I didn't expect to be besieged again so soon after my return," he sneered, recalling his experience before his demise. "But the three of you alone are no match for me now."

Chen Xingzhi remained calm, unprovoked by his provocation, staring intently at him, when suddenly the thought of attacking him arose.

The three men, who had surrounded him in a tripartite formation, attacked him in unison, seemingly intending to recreate the scene of his previous demise.

Luo Hou naturally wouldn't let them succeed. He clenched one fist and held a gun in the other, using both strength and the way of destruction to block all the attacks.

The radiance of the blazing sun? Destroyed with a single punch.

The unclean demonic blade, sharing the same origin as the God-Slaying Spear? He parried it with a single thrust.

A combined attack from several magical treasures? I used both fists and spears to neutralize it.

None of the three gained any advantage, and neither did Luo Hou; the situation seemed to have reached a stalemate.

But the sense of crisis that welled up in Luo Hou's heart reminded him that it was not over yet.

A sharp roar suddenly rang out. Although it was the first time he had heard it, Luo Hou inexplicably thought it was the sound of a horn.

It was calamity energy, a massive calamity energy rising up and converging into various calamities, which descended upon him.

Thunder, Gale, and Yin Fire.
All sorts of calamities werefalling him, causing him to pause in place for a moment.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhu Jiuyin, who was trapped inside the true form of the Dutian Shensha, suddenly broke out and, in coordination with the calamity, escaped from the cage.

The other ancestral witches also suddenly realized the truth and seized this brief opportunity to escape the prison of the true form of the Heavenly God and Demon.

Eleven beams of light hurriedly fled the battlefield, while only Zhu Jiuyin silently merged with Chen Xingzhi.

Without the spiritual support of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, this body, constructed from the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation, began to sway precariously.

"So there was another one. That's really unexpected." Luo Hou broke through the calamity in time and used his immense strength to control his collapsing body.

He glanced around, his gaze lingering for a moment on the newly appeared leader of the bandits. He grew increasingly wary, but outwardly feigned nonchalance, saying:
"Four people, exactly replicating the scene when I entered Nirvana last time. I'm just curious, how did you manage to convince so many people to come together against me?"

He looked at Chen Xingzhi, then glanced at the bandit leader, "He can even bring in this mysterious bandit leader."

"Have you ever heard of 'One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones'?" Chen Xingzhi chose to answer the question with a question.

The ability to transform one breath into three pure beings was a renowned supernatural power that Rahu was naturally familiar with.

"I am naturally aware of the special supernatural power of that Dao Ancestor in the Earthly Immortal Realm. You wouldn't be trying to tell me that you possess this supernatural power, would you?"

Luo Hou raised his guard even higher, lest he be caught off guard by this supernatural power.

"No, I mean"

Before he could finish speaking, the Lord of the Robbery, the Mysterious Lord, and the Impure Demon Ancestor all transformed into a ray of spiritual light and entered Chen Xingzhi's body.

From Rahu's perspective, the four beams of light merged into one without any obstruction or conflict, appearing exceptionally harmonious, as if they were originally one.

No, they are one.

Upon realizing the truth, Luo Hou displayed an expression even more unpleasant than when he saw his God-Slaying Spear being taken away.

Those three people were all renowned masters of great power, and each stood at the pinnacle of the primordial world.

If you take their identities into account, it becomes even more astonishing. One of these three is in charge of the demonic path, another is the founder of the Xuanjun Temple, and the third has an unknown background.

Adding the Flaming Sun Heavenly Emperor, these four people practically connected the entire prehistoric world, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they ruled the entire prehistoric world.

"When exactly did this scheme begin? In the era of the Divine Court? Or before the creation of the world?"

The thought that his previous death might have been part of the enemy's scheme made Rahu's face turn ashen.

It was too late; by the time he realized it, it was already too late.

In an instant, Chen Xingzhi in front of him completely overwhelmed him in terms of momentum. No matter how profound his understanding of the Way of Destruction was, he could not turn the tables in the face of Chen Xingzhi's pure power.

Not to mention that he had just been tricked by Chen Xingzhi and now had to use some of his strength to maintain his body.

"As you can see, this is the root cause."

Having not been able to unite as one for a long time, Chen Xingzhi was initially a little uncomfortable, but fortunately, he quickly got rid of it.

He then felt an abundant power, a power that would allow him to kill the enemy in front of him without any doubt.

"I underestimated myself. It seems that all my previous arrangements and backup plans have become meaningless at this moment."

Chen Xingzhi never imagined that he would gain such formidable power after unifying his many bodies, and only then did he realize that he had been too cautious.

As long as everyone is united, just charge straight in; there's no need for so many twists and turns.

Even the Heavenly Venerable's decree can be saved for other uses.

Chen Xingzhi glanced at Luo Hou, who was on high alert, and said nothing. He simply took out the Corrupted Disaster Soldier that had been with him the longest, pointed the spear at Luo Hou, and the meaning was self-evident.

Luo Hou took a deep breath, knowing that he had no way out and his only option was to fight this ridiculously strong eighth-tier opponent in front of him.

"How could anyone train their online persona to this level?" he cursed under his breath.

At this moment, the offensive and defensive momentum is different.

He is the challenger.

Gripping the God-Slaying Spear tightly, Rahu took a step forward, unleashing a destructive torrent that pierced towards the formidable enemy before him.

Faced with the destructive spear thrusting towards him, Chen Xingzhi remained calm and also thrust out his own spear.

The Zhou Tian Star Array was activated, and several spiritual treasures were lavishly used as the array's core.

The God-Slaying Spear was blocked by an invisible force. Although the spear tip pierced the air, it was as if it were stuck in a quagmire and could not move.

Luo Hou's expression changed drastically. He had thought that Chen Xingzhi was going to fight him one-on-one, but he never expected that the other party would be so unethical, using several spiritual treasures and the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array as soon as he made a move.

"you!"

"What do you mean, 'you'? This is how you deal with evil heretics like you."

He easily sent the corrupted soldiers into Rahu's body, the sharp spear tip piercing through his chest, instantly shattering his heart and the power principles that maintained his body.

With the balance broken, Rahu's true form as the Heavenly Demon God immediately began to collapse.

Before he could react, a blade flashed behind his head and, taking advantage of the moment when his strength was disrupted, pierced his skull.

The Impure Demon Blade fully revealed its destructive nature, strangling the spiritual light within his mind.

Two beams of light, symbolizing destruction, clashed endlessly on Rahu's body.

Luo Hou believed that if given time, he would surely be able to defeat this spiritual light.

But what he lacks most right now is time.

The next moment, his worst fears came true.

A cold glint appeared first, then the entire tip of the corrupted soldier's spear plunged into his skull.

With external interference, the situation between him and the Impure Demon Blade was instantly disrupted.

And so destruction came as promised.

It wasn't just the destruction brought by the two external forces, but also his own desire for self-destruction that was leading him to his demise.

Normally, he could naturally suppress this desire, but things are different now.

Destruction is a double-edged sword, and now it is destroying itself. Having just returned from the brink of death, Luo Hou hadn't even lived a full day before Chen Xingzhi took him away in one fell swoop after a few probing attacks.

Even though Rahu was used to life and death, he couldn't help but lament his bad luck.

"Hopefully, in the next era, I won't encounter anyone who has mastered both the art of disguise and the art of manipulation. Perhaps I can also create an alias in the demonic path; the title 'Demon Ancestor Rahu' is quite fitting."

A final thought flashed through his mind before he was swallowed by darkness.

The inspiration shattered and ceased to exist.

"They've sent Luo Hou to the revival match again. Hopefully, he can beat Da Zizai Tianmo, Yuanlong, Guangyuan, and the others."

He pulled the corrupted soldiers off Rahu's head and watched as his true form as the Heavenly Demon was completely destroyed by the unclean demon blade.

From then on, Chen Xingzhi's promotion was no longer hindered.

The Heavenly Emperor, the Demon Ancestor, the Ancestral Witch of Time, the Lord of Calamity, and even the Seven Lineage Ancestors of the Mysterious Monarch who rose twice in later generations—he possessed numerous titles, and even the Heavenly Venerable of the Cloud Sea could not achieve what he did.

He then took out the Heavenly Venerable's decree, and with a thought, the decree transformed into clouds and entered his body's spiritual light.

This was the last insurance he needed before his promotion.

"The time has come." Chen Xingzhi no longer waited, and a ray of innate, indestructible spiritual light shone brightly, engulfing all the status and authority he possessed.

The primordial origin is opening up to him, using the foundation of an entire world infinitely close to level nine to help him advance.

His figure had disappeared from the Lich battlefield, and a glimmer of light was rising towards the eighth rank.

The moment he took that step, he knew that transcendence was inevitable.

With his vision rising infinitely high, he only lowered his eyes slightly, yet simultaneously saw all living beings of the past and future in the primordial world.

Chen Xingzhi witnessed their birth, death, and even their attainment of enlightenment.

He had become an observer, and no one, whether at the eighth level or below, could detect his presence.

"Is this everything that Venerable Yunhai experienced?"

As he adapted to his ever-expanding field of vision, he took in the evolution of the primordial world.

The war between the Lich King and the Demon King has ended. The Twelve Ancestral Witches have fallen apart, and the Witch Clan is embroiled in internal strife. The Heavenly Court is also in a state of leaderlessness, and the various demon gods are willing to draw their swords against each other to compete for the vacant position of Heavenly Emperor.

Both races suffered heavy losses due to constant internal strife, while the human race, which originated from the witch race, quietly rose to prominence under the care of the seven lineages of the Mysterious Lord.

Until Gonggong angrily broke the pillar of heaven, the primordial world shattered, the two races came to an end, and the era belonging to the human race and the seven lineages of Xuanjun finally arrived.

He rose to prominence twice and fell into obscurity twice. His lineage continued into the distant future before being severed by the targeting of the Eighth Order.

Seeing this, Chen Xingzhi was not surprised at all, nor was he emotionally affected. He simply continued reading until the primordial era of this time came to an end.

His vision continued to rise and expand at an ever-increasing speed, and soon he reached the boundless void beyond the primordial wilderness.

First, he saw the group of eighth-level beings guarding the outer edge of the Primordial World. Like the eighth-level beings of the Primordial World, they were unaware of his presence.

In the blink of an eye, he traversed an unknown distance and observed a series of different worlds.

He witnessed the rise and fall of the world, and the joys and sorrows of all living beings.

His gaze swept quickly across the void, then suddenly paused for a moment in a certain world, fixing on Wu Dianfeng, who happened to be passing through this world.

"This guy is still pursuing his culinary art."

Memories were stirred up, and a smile appeared on Chen Xingzhi's face without him even realizing it.

With a flick of his finger, a ray of spiritual light drifted toward that world and headed toward Wu Dianfeng.

Having done all that, he lingered, letting his gaze continue to wander.

A host of unfamiliar worlds came one after another, and he saw familiar figures in some of them.

There are friends, former enemies, and acquaintances whom I've only met a few times.

Finally, he touched the ever-expanding boundary of the void and saw the cycle of reincarnation that moved along with the expansion of the void's boundary.

The entire void is within sight; whatever the mind desires, the eye can perceive.

At the core of the Reincarnation Space, three figures noticed the gaze and looked at him together.

Chen Xingzhi made no attempt to conceal his presence, openly revealing himself to the three.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, you've finally arrived."

A ninth-rank being, manifested as a middle-aged man, greeted him warmly; it was none other than Yunhai Tianzun, whom Chen Xingzhi was familiar with.

"Fellow Daoist Yunhai, greetings." Chen Xingzhi replied with a smile, then looked at the two people beside him, or rather, one person and one light bulb, and blurted out:

"You really are a ball of light?"

The white light emanating from the Lord of Reincarnation, who sat opposite the Celestial Venerable of the Vault of Heaven, flickered, and a series of thoughts were transmitted:

"It's just an outward appearance, why bother with it?"

Chen Xingzhi didn't mind and naturally sat in the last seat.

“I won the bet last time,” said the Lord of Reincarnation. “My plan succeeded first, but yours is far from successful.”

"Don't forget, if it weren't for my Primordial World, your plan might not have been able to come to fruition," the Celestial Venerable of the Vault of Heaven laughed, clearly intending to renege on his debt.

"Tsk, fine, let's call it a draw." The Lord of Reincarnation flashed again.

The large ball of light then turned to Chen Xingzhi and said, "You are the most qualified one among this group of reincarnators. Are you interested in doing something big with me?"

"Don't use those classic opening lines at a time like this," Chen Xingzhi complained. "Also, what's this big deal you're talking about?"

He always felt there was a conspiracy at play.

"Well, as you know, the void is vast, and beyond the void it is even larger. I plan to go out into the void with Fellow Daoist Qiongming. While I'm away, the Samsara Space will be in your care."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xingzhi understood that this white-skinned, black-hearted giant ball of light wanted to capture him to be a conscript.

“Hey, how can you say that?” the large sphere of light argued. “You were once a reincarnator too, so you should inherit my mantle. This is the legacy of our reincarnation space.”

"Alright, since you've put it that way," Chen Xingzhi thought for a moment and then agreed to the request.

From this moment forward, he will assume the reincarnation space and become the second Lord of Reincarnation, also known as the "Main God".

After he agreed, the white light around the Lord of Reincarnation brightened considerably, and he seemed to be in a very good mood.

For some reason, even the Celestial Venerable of the Vault of Heaven smiled.

These two ninth-level beings did not stay here for long. After Chen Xingzhi took over the Samsara Space, they left the void hand in hand.

“Oh, right,” Chen Xingzhi suddenly realized a blind spot, “what will happen to the Primordial World if the Celestial Venerable of the Vault of Heaven also leaves?”

After a moment's thought, he felt he had roughly guessed the answer, and his gaze toward Yunhai Tianzun carried a hint of camaraderie.

Unexpectedly, Venerable Yunhai looked at him with sympathy and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, what are you expecting? Venerable Qiongtian has already outsourced all the tasks, including the development of the prehistoric world, to the Samsara Space."

In other words, he is now in charge of all these tasks.

Chen Xingzhi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly cursed, "No wonder those two left so quickly; they had planned to scheme against me all along."

The Celestial Venerable of the Vault of Heaven and the Lord of Reincarnation have gone far away, and even if he wanted to catch up, he couldn't.

Since things have come to this point, the only option is to cut our losses.

"Fellow Daoist, you will help me, right?"

"..." Yunhai Tianzun was silent for a while, then sighed and said, "Just for one era, I will help you manage the prehistoric world for one era."

"That would be perfect."

Everything is difficult at the beginning, and once you start, you'll start again. Sooner or later, he'll be able to drag Yunhai Tianzun onto his pirate ship.

Shaking his head, Yunhai Tianzun vaguely sensed his thoughts but did not expose them. He simply left the Samsara Space alone.

Only Chen Xingzhi remained, still at the core of the reincarnation space, looking down at those reincarnators who were insignificant compared to him.

He was once just like most of them, an ant pulled up from the abyss of death by the cycle of reincarnation.

The cycle of reincarnation gave him a second chance at life, and even the opportunity to transcend it, and he is now happy to pass this opportunity on to all living beings.

As the Lord of Reincarnation said, the void is vast, and beyond the void lies even greater.

However, there are too few like-minded people. Every ninth-rank cultivator would be happy to see more people embark on this path.

With more fellow practitioners, there is more people to communicate with, and they can better explore the path ahead.

Now, it's his turn to pass the opportunity to those who come after him.

From then on, the primordial world lost Chen Xingzhi, who meticulously planned his advancement, but the void gained a supreme god who sowed the seeds of transcendence.

For him, the ninth level does not mean the end; his path will never end.
