I, the Chaos Entity, joined the chat group at the start.

"Mm." Fang Yuan nodded.

In essence, Fang Zheng, the younger brother, is not a bad person; he is just too repressed and lacks self-confidence, living in his own shadow since childhood.

Once he transforms into a dragon and soars into the clouds, coupled with the fact that he is young and easily provoked, Fang Yuan can understand why his older brother is targeted at him.

After all, the clansmen were a group of shrewd individuals; although their cultivation levels weren't particularly high, they possessed a deep and cunning nature.

In such a melting pot, how could Fangzheng not be assimilated?

"If there's nothing else, you may leave."

Fang Yuan didn't say anything more. He didn't care about family ties, and he didn't have any thoughts of revenge against his younger brother at the moment, because he felt that his brother had done nothing wrong.

Of course, if this life were to repeat itself, he would still kill his brother without hesitation and use the blood of the entire clan to build the foundation of his Gu cultivation.

Seeing that his brother had given him the order to leave, Fang Zheng pursed his lips and left anyway.

For some reason, the two have the same face and are the same age. But when facing his older brother, Fang Zheng feels completely suppressed and has no sense of self at all.

"With your intelligence and talent, you'll surely soar to great heights at the Enlightenment Ceremony."

"But I am born stupid and destined to be nothing great."

Fang Zheng felt this might be the last time he saw his brother. He knew that when the aptitude test came out, he would be among the worst performers, and might be exiled, never to see his brother again, who was as radiant as the moon in the heavens.

Fang Zheng left Fang Yuan's place, while Fang Yuan remained standing in the drizzling rain, deep in thought, pondering the path ahead.

……

A universe that covers the sky.

The Golden Age is in full swing, and with Xu Yi's blessing, the Heavenly Heart Mark has begun to exert its power. In the past hundred years, many more cultivators have entered the Quasi-Emperor realm.

Jiang Taixu, Gai Jiuyou, Yan Ruyu and others have completely entered the realm of the Perfect Emperor, and the Azure Emperor is also approaching the realm of the Mortal World.

The entire universe of Shrouding the Heavens is expanding, evolving towards the Immortal Realm.

At the same time, an even greater crisis was coming. Xu Yi sensed that a force in the heavens had locked onto the Shrouding the Heavens universe. It was the Quasi-Immortal Emperor and even Immortal Emperor of the Strange Clan exerting their power. They had found the hidden coordinates of the Shrouding the Heavens plane in the heavens.

The strange race of beings is approaching the Shrouding the Heavens plane. Once they enter, it will be a great battle for the survival of the plane.

Ancient forbidden zone.

Ruthless Man, Western Emperor, Emperor Venerable, Wushi, Azure Emperor, Yan Ruyu, Earth Laozi, Shennong, Xuanyuan, Gai Jiuyou, Jiang Taixu, Ye Qingxian, Ye Fan and others gathered together.

Xu Yi looked at the scathing, domineering figure with a serious expression. "It won't be more than a hundred years before a great war breaks out in our world. The most terrible consequence will be that our world is shattered, and everyone perishes."

"Brother Yi, is the difference really that big?" Ye Fan asked, clenching his fist.

"The gap is indeed large. In the battle at the Immortal Realm Fragment, the strange race was too powerful and too numerous. Although we have many more Great Emperors here, we still have too few Immortals, let alone Immortal Kings," the Emperor said.

……

Chapter 373 The Undercover Emperor Wushi

An eerie dark fog gradually blanketed the universe, a sign of impending crisis; a bloody battle was about to begin.

Only a Quasi-Immortal Emperor like Xu Yi, or even a powerful Immortal King like Ruthless Man, could sense this crisis in advance.

Now, the two are discussing ways to break the deadlock.

No matter how you deduce it, once the great war begins, the entire Shrouding the Heavens universe will be shattered, and all living beings will be buried by blood sacrifice, because this is inherently an unequal war.

Compared to the entire forces of the strange race, the combat power of the entire Shrouding the Heavens universe is severely insufficient.

Even setting aside Xu Yi, a being of the ruthless level, a mere soldier from the strange race could destroy the entire universe if he came here.

The average combat strength of the strange race is basically at the Supreme level. Because their cultivation system is different, they do not need to cultivate normally. They can quickly improve their realm by devouring or absorbing dark matter.

“Master Xu, this battle is unavoidable, and the odds of winning are too low,” Ye Qingxian sighed.

Originally, she traveled through time to change the future of her own world, but she didn't expect that the invasion of the strange race would come even faster in this time and space, and that it would be discovered before her grandfather attained enlightenment.

The change in lifespan E indirectly led to the addition of the strange intrusion.

It turns out that the original timeline of Grandpa's rise to become an emperor had a buffer period of nearly a million years, while Grandpa has only recently attained enlightenment, less than ten thousand years ago.

“In the Immortal Emperor’s realm, there is a divine power that illuminates all the heavens. Even if our entire universe is destroyed, this divine power can be used to resurrect everyone at a given point in time,” Xu Yi said.

He is currently the closest to the Immortal Emperor realm. If the great war begins, its terror will surely destroy everything, and those around him will perish one by one. At that time, only the Heavens can revive everyone.

However, he was also somewhat unwilling to give up, wondering if there was no other way to stop this invasion.

"Even if we were to be resurrected, it wouldn't be of any use. The difference in strength is too great, and we're out of time," the ruthless younger sister said.

"Father, I have a plan." Emperor Wushi suddenly spoke, his face showing determination.

"Tell me about it," Xu Yi asked.

"The Mysterious Clan is shrouded in mystery, largely because we don't understand them. Since we are destined to perish in this great war, I wonder if there is a way to reincarnate, enter the core area of ​​the Mysterious Clan, understand their methods, become a dark being, and ultimately unravel their secrets and destroy them," said the Great Emperor Wushi.

The opponent is too strong, mainly because we don't understand them. If we can find their weaknesses and delve deeper into the strange alien race, we might be able to break the deadlock.

“The idea is good, but the power of the Strange Clan is too unpredictable, corrupting people’s hearts and twisting human nature. Even if you can successfully reincarnate, will you still be yourself then? You might even be stuck there for the rest of your life,” Xu Yi said.

"It doesn't matter. As long as this crisis can be stopped, what does it matter if I sacrifice myself?" Emperor Wushi laughed.

Tears welled up in Ye Qingxian's eyes. Just like her Uncle Wushi in her timeline, he gave up his chance to become an Immortal Emperor and used his own life to block the pursuit of the strange race in order to allow everyone to evacuate.

"Child," the Western Emperor sighed, without stopping him.

This was Wushi's decision, and as her mother, she supported Wushi.

“Since this battle is unavoidable, I will lead the charge. I will leave this world to seek out the strange race and deal with them, buying you time.”

Xu Yi made a decision. He was already at the peak of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm. Although he was just a little short of breaking through, if he forced a breakthrough, he could also reach the Immortal Emperor realm, enough to wage a protracted war against the Strange Clan and buy the Ruthless Ones tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years.

As long as the strange race doesn't have more than three Immortal Emperors this time, he still has a chance.

He knew the strength of the strange race, which always maintained a lineup of ten Immortal Emperors and ten Priests.

There haven't been any major changes, so it's unlikely they'll all come out at once.

Ultimately, the Shrouding the Heavens universe is just a small world, and the Strange Clan cannot possibly send out most of its top experts.

"Brother Yi, you're going to die," Ye Fan said, his voice choked with emotion.

"Brother." Xu Qiong's eyes were filled with tears, feeling heartbroken. She feared that her brother might never come back.

Gai Jiuyou, Jiang Taixu, Qingdi, Laozi, and the others fell silent.

Ultimately, for the sake of the world's future, the opinions of the authorities were presented.

Before leaving, they drank heavily and chatted about everything under the sun.

Xu Yi set up a world-shaking array for the entire universe, hoping to delay the inevitable for a while, and then he left this world.

Ruthless, Ye Qingxian, Ye Fan, Wushi, and Emperor Zun all went into seclusion to strive for higher realms.

The entire Shrouding the Heavens universe has been transformed by Xu Yi, and the Heavenly Heart Imprint has been enhanced. Breaking through to True Immortal or Immortal King here is no longer a problem.

The realms of Quasi-Immortal Emperors and even Immortal Emperors no longer depend on the entire environment of heaven and earth or the laws of the heavens. They focus on cultivating their own path. As long as they can find their own way, they can break through to a higher realm.

In the blink of an eye, a thousand years have passed.

In this thousand years, quasi-emperors and great emperors have sprung up like mushrooms after rain throughout the entire world of Shrouding the Heavens, and they are extremely glorious.

Emperor and Wushi both broke through to the Immortal King realm.

And he has leaped into this realm and become a giant, but he is still far from becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

The ruthless one has reached the peak of the Immortal King realm, but is still some distance from breaking through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.

The Western Emperor broke through to the Immortal King realm, but he was not a top-tier Immortal King; however, his combat power should not be underestimated.

Before Xu Yi left, he left the Western Emperor many secrets and inheritances, increasing his foundation.

Gai Jiuyou, Qingdi, Jiang Taixu, and others reached the realm of true immortals.

Ye Fan originally wanted to pursue the path of true immortality and quickly improve his cultivation level to support Xu Yi.

However, before leaving, Xu Yi still told Ye Fan to steadily walk the path of immortality in the mortal world.

To become a mortal immortal, one needs to live nine lifetimes in reverse, comprehending the true meaning between life and death, and requires a great deal of time. It is very difficult to succeed in less than 500,000 years, but now it is possible.

Therefore, Ye Fan also received a part of Xu Yi's inheritance, namely the Great Dream Divine Thought Freedom Method, which allows him to experience the trials and tribulations of thousands of lifetimes through the Great Dream Eternal Method.

Xu Yi's Great Dream of Eternity is more refined and has more wonderful applications than the Great Dream of Eternity in Ye Fan's original trajectory. After Ye Fan cultivated it, he did shorten the path of the Nine Incarnations of Mortal Immortal and his foundation became more solid.

In addition, Yao Xi finally broke through to the Great Emperor realm.

Her talent is ultimately not as great as that of a fish, but she is still capable of much. As long as she can survive, her future achievements will not be low.

An Miaoyi's cultivation progressed even faster because she abandoned her original path and chose to pursue Xu Yi's path. Xu Yi's path was flawless, and with Xu Yi as her guiding light, An Miaoyi encountered almost no bottlenecks in her cultivation before reaching the Immortal Emperor level.

In a thousand years, he had already reached the peak of the True Immortal realm. His speed was so fast that Yao Xi was extremely envious and jealous.

……

Chapter 374 The Battle of the Immortal Emperors

"call!"

"After spending so much time, plus the points left by Uncle Xu, I have finally broken through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm."

In the desolate forbidden zone, Ye Qingxian successfully broke through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm, but there were no unusual phenomena. At her level, such phenomena could be concealed. The Dao of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor was no longer the law of heaven and earth, but her own path, standing shoulder to shoulder with the Great Dao.

Immediately, Ruthless Man, Emperor Venerable, and Wushi appeared beside Ye Qingxian.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, you have become a Quasi-Immortal Emperor." Emperor Wushi asked, looking extremely excited, even happier than when he himself broke through.

“Well, luckily, but this is not the end. Uncle Xu is not here, so I will protect this world,” Ye Qingxian said.

"Alright." Emperor Wushi smiled, and for some reason, he felt very friendly towards Ye Qingxian.

In fact, apart from Xu Yi and the Ruthless Man, no one else knew Ye Qingxian's identity, not even Ye Fan.

Those who are close to Ye Qingxian always feel that she is very familiar, as if they have met her before.

I might be able to guess some things, but I'm not entirely sure.

With Ye Qingxian's successful breakthrough, the hope of the Blood Silk Sect was restored, and their strength grew stronger and stronger. They just didn't know how Xu Yi was doing in the heavens.

In the darkness, they could sense a wisp of energy left behind by Xu Yi. This energy was continuous, indicating that Xu Yi was not in any immediate danger.

Moreover, it's unrealistic to expect to erase a peak Quasi-Immortal Emperor within a thousand years.

……

At this time, in the heavens.

Most of the heavens have already been occupied, destroyed, or sacrificed by the strange race.

There are not many living beings left in the entire universe. Most of them are in ruins, wiped out and their traditions collapsed.

Apart from the powerful members of the strange race in the highlands, the number of powerful beings in other remnant realms who are quasi-immortal emperors is extremely rare, and even immortal kings are few and far between. Some are not even as powerful as those in the original Shrouding the Heavens universe.

The realm of immortals is invisible, and the realm of humans consists of only a few cats, big and small.

Throughout the entire world, there is almost nothing that can stop the strange race.

Over the course of a thousand years, Xu Yi sniped at the Strange Clan, killing several Dark Dao Ancestors at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level. He would basically flee after killing one, and the Strange Quasi-Immortal Emperors couldn't catch up. Then he would return to continue his sneak attacks, slaying many more, finally making the Strange Clan realize the trouble Xu Yi could cause.

The Dao Ancestor and the strange army that originally targeted the Shrouding the Heavens Universe were mostly killed by Xu Yi, and the remaining powerful figures chose to pursue Xu Yi.

Unfortunately, although Xu Yi killed more than a dozen quasi-Immortal Emperor level Dao Ancestors, he could not completely eradicate them. These quasi-Immortal Emperors had been resurrected by the Dark Immortal Emperor over the course of a thousand years.

Quasi-Immortal Emperors, and even Immortal Emperors, can be restored from the river of time as long as they have a single thought.

The opposing Immortal Emperor was trying to revive him, and Xu Yi, being a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, couldn't stop him and could only watch helplessly as the other party came back to life.

At this moment, the plateau dispatched two Immortal Emperor-level experts to pursue and intercept Xu Yi, and they finally caught up with him and sealed off the surrounding space.

"You've killed so many quasi-Immortal Emperors of my clan. When did a powerhouse like you appear in this world? You were the one who killed three quasi-Immortal Emperors of my clan last time, weren't you?" the Dark Immortal Emperor asked.

This Dark Immortal Emperor is named Xiao. He is an Immortal Emperor from a certain Immortal Realm in the Heavens. This Realm was originally meant to resist the Plateau Clan, but in the end, Xiao betrayed his own world, offering up the entire world as a sacrifice, and entered the Plateau to be baptized, becoming a part of the Dark Plateau.

The owl is also a seed for future sacrificial rites; as long as one of the ancestors perishes, it may become the new ancestor.

However, the possibility is slim. The price to pay for the fall of an ancestor is too high. An ancestor is a being even more powerful than an Immortal Emperor. They can be said to be the ultimate realm of the Immortal Emperor, or even the ultimate Immortal Emperor.

The last time an ancestor fell was a million years ago. The plateau sent two ancestors to ambush a female immortal emperor, severely injuring her. However, the opponent was too powerful, killing an ancestor with her immortal emperor status. After that, the opponent disappeared.

And with the existence of plateaus, even the dead ancestors could be resurrected.
