The Heavens: One World, One Superpower

Su Chen activated the Xingzi Secret Technique, leaving behind mysterious patterns in the air, which transformed into a red light and chased after Duan De.

The speed of the Xingzi Secret Technique was unmatched in the world, and Su Chen should have quickly caught up with Duan De. However, a dark light emanated from Duan De's Taoist robe, causing his speed to surge dramatically, transforming him into a streak of light, his speed not slower than Su Chen's. Su Chen couldn't catch up for a while and could only trail behind.

Su Chen was secretly surprised: "Duan De's background is too extraordinary, and the Taoist robe he wears is not simple."

He was very familiar with the original plot. Duan De was an extraordinary person who had lived through nine lifetimes. He was a hidden big shot in the world of Shrouding the Heavens. He mainly cultivated the Tribulation Transcending Heavenly Art, which allowed him to reincarnate nine times. By combining the nine lifetimes, he could regain his memories and achieve the Immortal Dao Fruit in the Mortal World.

In his first life during the Chaotic Ancient Era, he was Cao Yusheng, a Heavenly Venerable who had undergone tribulation, and he was a close friend of Shi Hao, the Desolate Heavenly Emperor.

In his second life, during the mythological era, he was the Underworld Emperor, who created the Netherworld, the Origin Technique, and took the Emperor as his disciple.

In the third incarnation during the mythological era, he reappeared as the Heavenly Venerable of Tribulation Crossing, becoming one of the Nine Heavenly Venerables and creating the "Former" Secret among the Nine Secrets.

The fourth incarnation was the Source Master in the ancient times, who developed Source Technique to its peak and left behind the Source Master.

......

The ninth incarnation, Duan De, exists in the post-ancient era. Although he currently only possesses the cultivation of the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm, in the original storyline, he achieved enlightenment through an unconventional path, surpassing the combat power of a typical flawless emperor. Ultimately, he merged the nine seals into one, becoming a Red Dust Immortal, and joined forces with Ye Fan, Ruthless Man, and Wu Shi to enter the Immortal Realm. Later, during the Sacred Ruins era, he was resurrected by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, Ye Fan, and Chu Feng, thus attaining the position of Immortal Emperor.

Su Chen recalled Duan De's records in his mind and thought to himself, "He's a tough guy." However, this did not stop Su Chen from bombarding him with criticism. What Su Chen wanted to do was to take advantage of Duan De's lack of recovery and give him a good beating so that he would know that one cannot be too immoral.

His eyes glowed red, unleashing an extremely fierce heat vision that instantly traversed hundreds of meters, shooting towards Duan De's back. It was as if Duan De had eyes in the back of his head; he passed right through it. The heat vision bypassed Duan De and struck a large mountain thousands of meters ahead.

boom!

A deafening roar followed as the mountain exploded, collapsing in pieces like autumn leaves falling, sending up plumes of dust and smoke.

Seeing that Duan De had dodged, Su Chen snorted coldly and transformed into dozens of clones, all simultaneously unleashing their heat vision at Duan De. In an instant, the air was filled with countless figures of Su Chen, their red heat visions weaving a dense web of death.

Upon seeing this, Duan De cried out in alarm, "Brother, please spare me!"

Su Chen said, "Call me 'Father' and I'll let you go."

Without saying a word, Duan De shouted, "Dad, Grandpa, Father, I was wrong."

Su Chen laughed loudly and said, "Take this move!" He unleashed another burst of heat vision and charged towards Duan De.

Duan De cursed, "You son of a bitch, you broke your promise!"

The dark light emanating from his body suddenly intensified, forming a large cocoon of light tens of meters long, and his speed increased significantly. A dense barrage of thermal visions struck behind him, yet made no sound.

A single heat beam could flatten a mountain, yet it had no effect on Duan De. This made Su Chen frown. He quickened his pace and chased after him again. He could vaguely see a huge black bowl behind the cocoon, making Duan De look like a black turtle.

Su Chen burst into laughter. No wonder Duan De wanted to enlarge the dark light; it was to conceal the Devouring Demon Canopy behind it, so that no one could see this scene.

Seeing that his thermal vision was ineffective against Duan De, he took out the Divine Furnace of Departing Fire, and an astonishing heat immediately spread out, covering thousands of meters.

Duan De was startled by the astonishing energy. His face was pale and he was covered in cold sweat. He had repeatedly activated the Emperor Weapon Devouring Demon Canopy and the Daoist robe transformed from the Nether Iron Battle Armor, causing his mana to be consumed rapidly. He had to take pills continuously to replenish his mana.

Now that he sensed Su Chen taking out a quasi-emperor weapon, he was immediately terrified, almost scared out of his wits, and cried out, "Father, it's me, please spare me, I know I was wrong."
