The Great Overlord: Simulating the Future, Dominating Speedrunning

Chapter 174 Emperor Yan, Xiao Yan!
In the Cemetery of the Emperor of Heaven,

Lu Chen was slightly stunned, then scratched his head in confusion, and answered honestly: "Senior, what you said is true, but your strength is unfathomable. If you could have taken action earlier, this battle would have ended faster."

The black-robed man smiled, looked at Xiao Xiao beside him with pride, and said, "Look, my friend, you all agree with me. It's not a bad thing for young people to gain more experience."

"My friend, you must have suffered a lot to have this ability."

"After all, the taste of my Burning Technique is not pleasant, right?"

After saying that, the man in black robe looked at Lu Chen with a smile.

Lu Chen coughed lightly. Even though he was thick-skinned, he couldn't help but blush. He touched his nose and said unnaturally: "Senior, you have a keen eye. I..."

Before he could finish his words, the black-robed man patted Lu Chen on the shoulder, interrupting him. He looked at him with some appreciation, and then said with a smile: "Kung Fu was created to be practiced by people. No need to explain. You've practiced well, much better than that useless bastard in my family."

"Okay, leave the rest to me."

Hearing the black-robed man's words, Lu Chen immediately breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and without any hesitation, stepped back, walked behind the black-robed man, and stood shoulder to shoulder with Xiao Xiao.

The man in black robe walked forward, and an invisible pressure began to cover the world.

Inside the Cemetery of the Heavenly Emperor, Lu Chen could feel that the overwhelming demonic energy was rapidly dissipating at this moment, and even the demonic power of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Emperor was being suppressed step by step.

And at the moment when the man in black robe stepped forward,
Not far away, the playful look on the face of the Devouring Demon Emperor had long since disappeared, replaced by a solemn look.

"I never thought that after tens of thousands of years, the universe would give birth to a peak being like you. It seems that this world is indeed profound. May I know your name?"

"me?"

The black-robed man smiled slightly, flicked his slender fingers, and ignited wisps of flames. He said, "I am grateful to all the people in the universe for their kindness in calling me the Flame Emperor."

"Emperor Yan?"

The Sky-Devouring Demon Emperor looked at the black-robed man in front of him with a serious expression. He stared at the gorgeous flames wrapped around the Flame Emperor, his eyes filled with deep vigilance and fear.

Although they were both Heavenly Supremes, he could vaguely feel that the sense of danger from the person in front of him seemed to be even stronger than that from the Heavenly Emperor back then.

Obviously, the name of Emperor Yan is not an ordinary one in this world. In terms of strength, he is probably comparable to the top few of their extraterritorial clans.

Thinking of this, the eyes of the Devouring Demon Emperor suddenly became gloomy. Behind him, the monstrous demonic energy gradually surged and turned into eight ferocious demonic mouths, which surrounded his body. Even the space began to collapse at this time, and a terrifying demonic power quietly spread.

"Let me see how powerful you, the Flame Emperor, are!"

After saying that, the Sky-Devouring Demon Emperor waved his hand, and eight ferocious demon mouths suddenly shot out, growing bigger against the wind, and transformed into a behemoth of hundreds of thousands of feet, like a black hole, covering the Flame Emperor!

The great magic trick, the devil swallows the world!
"You, the Demon Devourer Clan, still only have this much."

Upon seeing this, Emperor Yan chuckled and raised his palm. In his palm, a gorgeous flame condensed and then gradually transformed into a slowly rotating fire lotus.

The fire lotus is magnificent and exquisite, like a work of art. Its colors are brilliant and colorful. If you look closely, you will find that each petal of the fire lotus is condensed from a different flame.

Yan Emperor’s signature product, Buddha’s wrathful lotus!
"go with!"

Emperor Yan flicked his finger, and the exquisite fire lotus shot out. Its speed seemed slow, but in the blink of an eye, it pierced through the eight demon mouths and fell towards the Demon Emperor Tuntian!

call out!
Wherever the fire lotus passed, the eight ferocious devil mouths that were hundreds of thousands of feet long had no power to resist at all. As soon as they came into contact, they were burned by the terrifying temperature contained in it and turned into countless devil energy and dissipated!

"Invincible!"

Upon seeing this, Demon Emperor Tuntian's expression changed drastically, a look of shock flashed across his eyes, and then he retreated without hesitation.

As he retreated violently, endless sticky demonic energy gushed out crazily, forming millions of demonic energy barriers in front of him.

Upon seeing this, Emperor Yan smiled slightly and snapped his fingers.

boom!
The fire lotus hit the demonic barrier and exploded instantly. Countless terrifying and strange flames shot out and turned into a gorgeous sea of ​​fire, rushing towards the Devouring Demon Emperor!

Chi Chi!

The entire world was distorted at this moment, and the millions of demonic energy barriers were evaporated almost instantly. Finally, the shock wave directly penetrated the space and enveloped the retreating Devouring Demon Emperor.

"How can it be……"

The pupils of the Devouring Demon Emperor suddenly shrank, and before he could put up any resistance, endless brilliant flames fell on his body.

boom!
Immediately, a terrifying temperature swept over, like residual snow meeting magma, quickly turning it into nothingness.

"Senior, the Sky-Devouring Demon Emperor was known as the Nine-Corpse Demon Emperor in ancient times. He had nine lives. Seven of them were killed by the Heavenly Emperor, and you just killed one. He should have one life left..."

Seeing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but remind him.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yan smiled, waved his hand, and said, "Don't worry, he can't escape."

"While watching the battle just now, I had already set up a barrier here."

As soon as he finished speaking, a scream was heard from the sky above the Emperor of Heaven's Cemetery.

Lu Chen looked up and saw that the sky above the cemetery had changed color at some point, and a huge flame shield covering hundreds of thousands of miles enveloped the entire world.

Above the sky, colorful lights flowed and transformed into different flame patterns. Each fire pattern represented a powerful flame born from heaven and earth, rendering the entire sky into a gorgeous sea of ​​fire.

At this moment, above the gorgeous barrier, amidst the surging flames, a demonic energy that had escaped into the void suddenly emerged, and countless flame runes surged out, turning into a palm-sized crystal fireball, trapping it inside.

In the fireball, demonic energy was seen swirling, and a ferocious demonic face emerged. It was none other than the Demon Emperor Tuntian who had just faked his death and escaped.

At this moment, he roared loudly, his tone full of unwillingness and anger.

"Emperor Yan, if I were in my prime, how could you trap me?"

Emperor Yan chuckled and said, "Even if you were at your peak, you might not be able to defeat me. Not to mention others, even if we were both Heavenly Supremes, you might not be able to defeat the young friend behind me."

Upon hearing this, the Devouring Sky Demon Emperor's expression froze. Thinking of the various methods used by that brat just now, he fell silent for a moment. He sighed and said, "Today, I'm defeated. My skills are inferior to his. There's nothing much to say."

"But don't get complacent. Last time, our Outlander Clan didn't even use their full strength. The next time we come back, it will be the end of your world!"

After saying that, a fierce look flashed in the eyes of the Devouring Demon Emperor, and endless demonic light burst out from them, exploding with a loud bang!
He was actually going to self-destruct!
Seeing this, the Flame Emperor remained calm. He opened his palm, and the fireball hovered above it. A brilliant flame rose from his palm, enveloping it. In just a few breaths, the demonic energy that had destroyed the world was completely evaporated. No trace of evil remained between heaven and earth.

After dealing with the Sky Devouring Demon Emperor, Emperor Yan turned to look at Lu Chen and said with a smile, "My friend, are you relieved now?"

Lu Chen nodded, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your help today, Senior. I am very grateful..."

Before he could finish his words, Emperor Yan waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. Dealing with such evil demons is the job of the Supreme Lords of the Universe. I also want to thank you for helping my girl so many times."

"My girl has always been very proud and arrogant. This is the first time I've seen her praise someone so much."

After saying that, Emperor Yan looked at Lu Chen with great interest, which made him feel uneasy.

Lu Chen couldn't help but blush, and smiled awkwardly: "Senior, you are too kind. I have only learned a few more tricks, but they are not refined. They are nothing special."

Seeing this, Emperor Yan smiled slightly, and seemed very satisfied with Lu Chen's reaction. He patted Lu Chen on the shoulder and said earnestly: "My friend, don't be nervous. I will not interfere in the affairs between you and my daughter."

"As long as you can convince her, I don't care. It's better for her to get married sooner, so I don't have to worry about her all day."

"Whenever I encounter danger, I have to run away. When will this day end?"

Xiao Xiao's pretty face flushed red instantly when she heard this. She didn't know if she was angry or just shy. She couldn't help but stamp her feet and said coquettishly, "What nonsense are you talking about! If you do this again, I'm going to go back and tell Mom!"

"You are so unreasonable, girl. Didn't you say that this kid is a good person and asked me to rescue him quickly?"

Emperor Yan shrugged helplessly, without any dignity as Emperor Yan.

"What does saving him have to do with marrying him?"

Xiao Xiao was so angry that she stomped her feet, pointed at Emperor Yan's nose, and said angrily: "Dad, if you keep talking nonsense, I will really be angry. I will tell Mom that you secretly went to Aunt Yun last month..."

"You girl..."

Yan Di's eyelids twitched and he waved his hand quickly. Suddenly, a curtain of flames stuck to Xiao Xiao's mouth, temporarily sealing her red lips.

"Don't talk nonsense, Dad didn't do it, I'm innocent..."

Emperor Yan's face straightened, and he looked quite righteous and awe-inspiring, and spoke with a solemn oath.

Xiao Xiao's mouth was sealed by the curtain of flames, and she could only make "mumbling" sounds. Her eyes were full of indignation, and she was obviously extremely dissatisfied with Yan Di's "sealing" behavior.

She stamped her feet vigorously, put her hands on her hips, and looked like she was unwilling to give up.

Seeing this, Emperor Yan had a headache on his face. He sighed and said, "Girl, how can you be so ignorant? Daddy is doing this for your own good. There are some things that should not be said, so as not to cause trouble."

"As long as you don't talk about this, how about I find a way to get you the True Dragon Blood you asked for?"

When Xiao Xiao heard this, a hint of interest appeared in his eyes. He thought for a moment and pointed at Lu Chen beside him.

Emperor Yan understood and nodded immediately. He waved to Lu Chen and said, "Come here, my friend."

Lu Chen touched his nose. Although he didn't know why Senior Yan Di called him, he still walked forward slowly.

Emperor Yan waved his sleeves, and an ancient lamp flew out and fell into Lu Chen's hands.

"If you are ever in danger, you can light this lamp and I will come to your aid."

Lu Chen was shocked when he heard this, but then he accepted the lantern without any pretense, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your kindness, senior. I will never forget your kindness in protecting the Dao."

"You are too kind, my friend. If you practice hard, you can also reach my level."

Emperor Yan smiled and shook his head, then looked at him meaningfully and whispered to himself, "Young people, spend more time together, and good things will happen. My friend, my daughter is a little stubborn, but she has a kind heart. You have to be more tolerant of her."

Lu Chen was stunned, but saw that Emperor Yan had already turned his head and looked at Xiao Xiao. He smiled and stretched out his hand to rub Xiao Xiao's hair, and said gently: "Are you satisfied now?"

Xiao Xiao nodded, and then the flame curtain on her mouth turned into a light spot and dissipated. She snorted and said, "That's more or less. Is there anything else? If not, let's go back."

Emperor Yan smiled and shook his head, saying, "There is indeed one thing."

"Today, we were able to kill the Nine Corpses Demon Emperor. The Heavenly Emperor deserves the greatest credit. He should be rescued."

"The Emperor of Heaven is still alive?"

Xiao Xiao's eyes widened when he heard this.

Emperor Yan turned his gaze and looked towards the sky, at the towering mountain where the Emperor's sword was originally inserted.

In the corner of the square inside the mountain, there was a huge black head. The head was filled with evil spirit, giving people a gloomy and terrifying feeling.

"Is that the Emperor of Heaven?"

Xiao Xiao looked incredulous.

Emperor Yan sighed and said, "That was just the Demon Emperor's disguise, trying to get outsiders to destroy the remains of the Heavenly Emperor."

After saying that, he waved his sleeves, and suddenly a brilliant flame swept out, directly wrapping the black head.

The flames burned fiercely, and the dark head quickly melted, and traces of demonic energy were evaporated. Then the head gradually became brighter and turned into a crystal color.

hum!
As soon as the crystal skull appeared, it began to emit bright light. As the light converged, a shadow emerged.

That light and shadow, dressed in white robes, had a cool and calm demeanor, and there was an indescribable sense of oppression that emanated from it, like the power of an emperor, which made people respect and awe.

The lord of the ancient heavenly palace, the Emperor of Heaven!
"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist. I never thought that when I sacrificed my life to seal the demon, I failed to destroy it and almost caused a disaster. I am really ashamed."

As soon as the Emperor of Heaven appeared, he bowed to Emperor Yan and said with gratitude.

Emperor Yan's expression straightened, and he clasped his fists solemnly and said, "Senior, you are too kind. Without your selfless act, the world would not be so prosperous. Now that you are in trouble, we are grateful for your kindness and should help you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen and Xiao Xiao also bowed and bowed.

The Emperor of Heaven showed a look of relief on his face, and nodded with a smile. He then swept his eyes over the three people, and finally landed on Lu Chen. He smiled and said, "My friend, you should have cultivated to the first level of the Three Pure Ones, the third level, right?"
