A person in the heavens, starting with a Chaos Emperor Dao Fruit

"Emperor! It's an Emperor! How could there possibly be an Emperor in this world?" In the small plane of the Soul Clan, the Soul Emperor, who was trying to comprehend the secrets of the Battle Emperor, was directly alarmed by the Emperor's aura and immediately tore through space to arrive in front of the Void Devouring Flame.

"Can you feel it? It's the aura of an emperor." The Soul Emperor asked the Void Devouring Flame with great excitement, for this might be the opportunity for him to become an emperor.

“Yes, it is indeed the Emperor’s might. How could there still be an Emperor left in this world? Could it be an Emperor who ascended and then returned?” Void Devouring Flame said with a look of surprise.

"No matter what, we must find this emperor. Men, search the location of Emperor Wei with all your might."

The ancient tribes on the other side were in the same situation, deeply shocked by the emperor's might, and thus ordered a search for the emperor's whereabouts and a visit to him.

In the underground lava of Canaan Academy, the sleeping Taixu Ancient Dragon Emperor Zhukun was also awakened by the Emperor's might. He also wanted to find the Emperor, but unfortunately he was trapped here by the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor.

Emperor Dan, inside Emperor Tuoshe's palace, was also startled, muttering in a daze, "Emperor's might! How could there still be an Emperor! Could it be that old codger Emperor Tuoshe has returned?"

"Well, do you believe me now? I didn't want to be high-profile, but you forced me to." Yun Hua was unaware that his display of imperial power had become known throughout the entire Dou Qi Continent.

"How is this possible! How could you possibly be the Emperor! I must be hallucinating!" Although Yun Yun had never experienced the Emperor's might, he knew that this was the Emperor. It didn't need to be explained; when you encountered it, you would naturally know that it was the Emperor in person.

"Why is it impossible? I'm a human being too! How can I not act like an emperor?" Yunhua said, feeling wronged.

"Then why did you stay on the Dou Qi Continent, and why did you save me?" Yun Yun asked excitedly, clearly unable to calm down after learning that Yun Hua was an emperor.

"Back then, I was indeed preparing to leave the Dou Qi Continent. However, after breaking through the dimensional crystal wall, I encountered a void turbulence and came across another world. At that time, an evil race invaded that world, and I was forced to get involved. Together with the talisman ancestor of that world, I sealed the alien demon emperor."

I was also severely injured, and the Ancestral Symbol died. After leaving that world, I encountered a spatial storm that was rare in ten thousand years. Because I was seriously injured, I was swept away by it. After wandering around, I ended up back on the Dou Qi Continent. However, my injuries worsened, and I had no choice but to live in seclusion on the Dou Qi Continent to recuperate.

As for why I saved you, it's because I discovered you are a descendant of my wife's clan. I can sense the same bloodline aura as my wife did back then, and besides, you look remarkably like my wife, so I saved you."

Yunhua's fabrication was flawless, and the only flaw was covered up by the world's original aura of the dimensional embryo. As long as no one made a move, no one would know that this was a fraud.

"Thank you, Emperor Yun. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. But Emperor, your luck is so bad." Yun Yun completely believed Yun Hua's lie. Otherwise, how could she also happen to have the surname Yun? It was probably because the Emperor bestowed the surname Yun upon his wife's clan back then.

"No need to thank me. Seeing you just reminded me of my wife who died many years ago. She had a similar personality to you back then, seemingly aloof but actually rich in emotions. You two are so alike that I can't tell whether you are the reincarnation of my wife or just a similar flower."

Yunhua's sorrowful and deep longing, carrying eternal regret and sadness, inexplicably stirred up feelings of attachment and grief in Yunyun's heart, as well as an inexplicable reluctance to part, as if she herself had become the Heavenly Emperor's longed-for wife.

This emotion was caused by Yunhua imitating the aura left behind by the Ruthless Great Emperor of the Immortal Realm. The aura of the Ruthless Great Emperor's longing for his brother was enough to make even the gods and demons of the Nine Heavens shed tears.

Yun Yun also wondered if she was the reincarnation of the Heavenly Emperor's wife, otherwise why would she feel longing, sadness and reluctance because of the Heavenly Emperor's grief.

"Oh, right, I haven't asked you your name yet. You should be surnamed Yun, right? Back then, I fought my way across the Dou Qi Continent and defeated several unparalleled enemies. They couldn't defeat me, so they ambushed my pregnant wife, causing her and her unborn child to perish. I could only follow my wife's last wish to protect her people. I bestowed upon them the surname Yun and treated them as my own people."

"I am filled with hatred and rage. What good is it to seize the Origin Emperor Qi? In the end, the one I love is gone. I refined the Origin Emperor Qi to become an emperor, and I swept across the nine heavens and roamed the Dou Qi Continent, but I was powerless to bring back my wife's departed soul."

"I went to the vast world to seek reincarnation, but unfortunately I returned home with a body full of injuries. I am just a pitiful wretch." Yun Hua's acting skills were superb. After all, Yun Yun was already moved to tears by Yun Hua's story.

"Heavenly Emperor, you are not a pitiful wretch, no, my name is Yun Xi. The surname Yun, which you bestowed upon me, has not been cut off. There are still Yun clan members living in the Yunlan Sect. Would you like to go and meet them?" Yun Yun chose to conceal her real name so that Yun Hua would not know her identity as the sect leader of the Yunlan Sect.

"Ah~! Yunxi! You're the wife who loves drinking beast milk the most. Do you know the Desolate Emperor?"

Chapter Ninety-Two: The Arrival of the Green Barbarians

Our Heavenly Emperor Yun was utterly shocked, thinking he had wandered into the wrong movie set. How could he have saved the wife of the Flame Emperor, only to suddenly find himself as the wife of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor?

The karma was too great; he couldn't bear the karma associated with the name Yunxi. He feared that even if the Desolate Emperor didn't block the spring, he would still destroy Yunhua.

"Who loves drinking animal milk the most? I'm not even married yet!" Yun Yun was also completely confused and puzzled by Yun Hua's sudden outburst.

"He loves drinking beast milk, huh? He is the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, who has ruled for eternity. He was born to cultivate the Dao and came to quell the chaos. Tsk tsk, his wife is named Yun Xi." Yun Hua said inscrutably, as if the Desolate Heavenly Emperor really existed on the Dou Qi Continent.

"Ah! What a coincidence! Hehe!" Yun Yun chuckled awkwardly, trying to escape the embarrassing situation.

"Here, I made you some meat porridge. You can drink it yourself." Yunhua handed the meat porridge to Yunyun and then said, "How did you end up in such a terrible state? Not only are your meridians broken, but your strength has also been sealed."

Yun Yun took the bowl, slowly took a sip, and replied, "She was sealed away by the Snake-People Queen and is being hunted down by her subordinates."

"Alright, you dare to provoke the Snake-People? I've also heard of Medusa's name. Not long ago, I sensed the aura of the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python in the desert and the movement of a breakthrough to the Dou Zong realm. It must be Medusa. You, a mere Dou Huang, dare to provoke her? That's quite audacious." Yun Hua maintained his persona and said with feigned emotion.

Yun Yun was speechless. Who knew that Medusa had actually evolved and become a Dou Zong? Otherwise, she would never have gone looking for trouble.

"Heavenly Emperor, can my severed meridians and sealed strength be restored?" Yun Yun decided to ask this old monster, after all, she couldn't stay like this forever.

"Haha, you've come to the right person. I do have a solution, but there's no such thing as a free lunch. What can you offer in return?" Yunhua said with interest.

"I... I really don't know what the Heavenly Emperor needs? I probably can't offer anything that would interest him," Yun Yun said sadly.

"I can give it to you, but I need you to do something for me. How about it? It's a good deal, isn't it?" Yunhua said with a wicked sense of humor.

“Yes, as long as it doesn’t violate my principles, I’m willing to serve the Heavenly Emperor,” Yun Yun immediately agreed.

"It's very simple. I want you to recover your strength and then ambush the Soul Palace protectors who are colluding with your master, Zun Yunshan." Yun Hua's words were shocking, directly revealing Yun Yun's identity while also assigning her this impossible task.

"Ah! How did you know I was Yun Yun? And why did the Soul Palace collude with my master?" Yun Yun was also surprised to find that her identity had been exposed long ago, and that she had been disguised as Yun Xi.

"Does the Yunlan Sect have another female Dou Huang with the surname Yun? Although I live in seclusion, I am not indifferent to worldly affairs. As for the Soul Palace, they capture the souls of alchemists and powerful individuals everywhere to improve their own soul realm. After all these years, they still can't change their ways." Yun Hua said, feigning indignation.

"I'm sorry, I may not be able to fulfill this request. My master would not allow me to do so." Yun Yun knew her master's personality; if he were truly colluding with the Soul Palace, he would absolutely not allow her to disrupt his plans.

"Well, it seems you'll have to find another way while you're stuck with this body that can no longer cultivate," Yunhua said with a hint of regret.

"It's alright, as long as I keep searching, I'll recover someday." Yun Yun was quite confident, after all, her injuries didn't necessarily require a Dou Di to intervene.

"I have other matters to attend to, so I will be leaving now. You can stay here to recover, or you can leave directly," Yunhua said to Yunyun.

"Then you won't go back to this little valley? Will I ever see you again? Can I tell other people about you?" Yun Yun blurted out, though she was somewhat confused and reluctant to part.

"Perhaps, who can say for sure? If we're destined to meet again, we will. If you spread the news about me, you'll be in big trouble. Even a Dou Sheng would capture you and search your soul." Yun Hua didn't turn his head, but simply waved his hand and said.

"Thank you for taking care of me these past few days, Heavenly Emperor. I am deeply grateful. Perhaps I will find you again," Yun Yun said, bowing respectfully.

"Don't worry about it. The mountains are high and the road is long. If you can't find the answer, then look for yourself." Yunhua had already flown far away, but her voice still rang in Yunyun's ears.

Yunhua headed in the direction of the Snake-People Clan, intending to discuss how to get to the Central Continent. He also needed to get an explanation from the Heavenly Snake Palace for Qinglin, who had been taken away by them.

The day after Yunhua left, Yunyun dragged her injured body back to Yunlan Sect, hoping that her master could help resolve the issues with her meridians and seals.

Meanwhile, back in the Snake-People's royal city, Yue Mei and Mobas were being scolded by Medusa, who had recovered somewhat. After all, two Dou Wangs had gone to chase after a seriously injured one-star Dou Wang, yet the enemy still managed to escape.

“Your Majesty, I deserve to die and am willing to accept punishment,” Mobas said earnestly.

"Alright, get out of here. If you fail to do things properly next time, you don't need to keep your leadership positions."

"Yes, Your Majesty, we take our leave." The two immediately bowed respectfully and turned to leave the hall.

Medusa sat on the throne with an icy expression, feeling her injuries gradually heal, and her expression softened slightly.

"Your Majesty, it's been a long time. I didn't expect you to be injured. I thought I would be able to go to Zhongzhou with Your Majesty." Yunhua's figure walked out of the space and said with great interest.

"Hmph, it was my carelessness. I have some information I've collected about wormhole passages to Zhongzhou. Take a look; I hope it will be helpful." Medusa took out the collection booklet and handed it to Yunhua.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. It is indeed very useful to me." Yunhua opened it and began to read. It recorded the locations of three natural wormholes, one of which was in a hidden corner deep in the desert, guarded by the snake people.

One is a cave located in the Monster Mountain Range, guarded by a seventh-tier magical beast, and the last one is located near the capital of the Gama Empire.

Just then, Medusa and Yunhua simultaneously sensed an unfamiliar Dou Huang aura outside the capital.

A moment later, Yue Mei came in to report: "Your Majesty, there is a Dou Huang outside named Lü Man. He says he has come from the Heavenly Serpent Palace and has something to ask Your Majesty."

"Let her in. Daring to intercept someone from my snake-people race, she really doesn't know what's good for her." Medusa's lips curled up, seemingly mocking someone for daring to come to her doorstep.

Soon, Yue Mei led in a female Dou Huang dressed in green, who looked at Medusa with an arrogant gaze and said, "My Heavenly Serpent Palace has taken a girl with the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil from the Serpent Clan. This girl is extremely important to my Heavenly Serpent Palace, so we have come to offer you some compensation."

"Oh, interesting. Are all the people in your Heavenly Serpent Palace this arrogant? I wonder how many Battle Saints and Battle Venerables you have?" Medusa mocked.

"Although my Heavenly Serpent Palace is only a second-rate power in the Central Continent, it has two Dou Zong and six Dou Huang, which is not something your mere Serpent Clan can withstand," Green Barbarian said arrogantly.

"Is that so? Two Dou Zongs, how terrifying! If you don't give an explanation today, you'll probably die here." Medusa unleashed her Dou Zong aura, directly sealing off the surrounding space. Green Barbarian felt as if she were being suppressed, and the terrifying pressure and spatial repression made her grit her teeth and persevere.

Chapter Ninety-Three: I Still Love Your Unruly Nature

Green Barbarian never expected that the queen of the snake-people clan was actually a Dou Zong level cultivator, and her power far exceeded that of an ordinary Dou Zong, with several skilled masters of space.

"Your Majesty Queen Medusa, please forgive me. I know I was wrong and should not have been so ostentatious. This is a gift from my Heavenly Serpent Palace to Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will accept it." The Green Barbarian, who had been suppressed, could no longer be arrogant and had no choice but to take out a few jade bottles from his storage ring.

"Your Majesty, this is a sixth-grade pill, the Imperial Extreme Pill. Please forgive me." The Imperial Extreme Pill that Green Barbarian took out was a top-grade pill that could increase the strength of a Dou Huang by one star, but it was useless to Medusa, a Dou Zong.

"Heh, a mere few Imperial Pills and you think you can guarantee the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil? It seems your Lord of the Palace thinks I'm a fool." Medusa said with a mocking laugh.

"Absolutely not. Actually, Miss Qinglin asked me to bring her image stone to someone named Xiao Yun. She said she wants to grow in the Heavenly Serpent Palace for a while and doesn't want to hold anyone back. She hopes Xiao Yun won't worry about her." Green Barbarian hadn't originally planned to take out the image stone, but now she was afraid she would lose her life if she didn't.

"I am the Xiao Yun you mentioned. Give me the image stone." Yun Hua unleashed an even more terrifying Dou Zong aura, his power completely comparable to a Dou Zun expert, causing Green Barbarian to kneel on the ground, unable to move.

Yunhua took a picture of the recording stone and activated it with great interest. The recording stone immediately emitted a fluorescent light, then unfolded to form something like a light screen. Qinglin's charming and adorable appearance appeared on the screen.

"Brother Xiao Yun, can you see me? I am Qing Lin. I am currently in the Heavenly Serpent Palace, learning how to become stronger and how to control serpentine magical beasts. Although I am very busy, I am also very fulfilled."

I know that Brother Xiao Yun has come back to save me, but I still want to study at the Heavenly Serpent Palace for a while. In order not to worry Brother Xiao Yun, I recorded this image stone.

I'm doing very well now, and the Lord of the Heavenly Serpent Palace treats me very well. He said he would train me to be the next Lord of the Heavenly Serpent Palace, but Qing Lin has no desire to be any Lord.

Brother Xiao Yun, I'm already a Dou Shi now, isn't that amazing? And the two-headed fire spirit snake you gave me, I call her Xiao Ling, is almost breaking through to Dou Wang now.

When Qinglin is no longer a burden to Brother Xiaoyun, she will come back to find him. Brother Xiaoyun and Sister Xian'er, please take good care of yourselves.

After he finished speaking, the light screen in front of him disappeared. Yun Hua was a little surprised. He did not expect that Qing Lin would be willing to grow up in the Heavenly Serpent Mansion. It seems that he has indeed grown up.

"Alright, get up. Since Qinglin has said so, then I will not go to Zhongzhou to find Qinglin. I was originally planning to attack the Heavenly Serpent Palace immediately, but it seems that I will not have the chance."

Yunhua released her oppressive aura, allowing Lüman to stand up. However, Lüman was still sweating profusely. It seemed that she had arrived just in time, otherwise the Heavenly Serpent Palace would probably have been in great trouble.

"One more thing, don't let me know who is bullying Qinglin in the Heavenly Serpent Palace, otherwise I won't hesitate to destroy the entire Heavenly Serpent Palace. You must guarantee Qinglin's freedom and safety. If she loses even a single hair, I will also attack your Heavenly Serpent Palace." Yunhua said with a stern expression.

"Yes, I will protect Miss Qinglin and will not let anyone bully her," Green Barbarian said confidently.

"Finally, this is something I asked you to give to Qinglin. You must hand it to Qinglin personally. I have placed a restriction on it, and only Qinglin can open it. If anyone else forcibly opens it, I will know, and I will have to visit your Heavenly Serpent Palace."

Yunhua handed over a box with a restriction on it. Inside were some pills that could help one reach the Douhuang stage, a cultivation technique that Yunhua had created earlier that could be upgraded, the Innate Primordial Chaos Technique, and a Green Lotus Transformation Pill.

"I will personally hand it over to Miss Qinglin," Green Barbarian said earnestly as soon as she received it.

"Get lost. I still prefer the arrogant you from just now," Yunhua said, waving her sleeve.

"Yes, yes, I'll get out of here right away." Green Barbarian quickly left the council hall, flew away from the snake-people, and headed towards the location of the spatial wormhole.

"Your Majesty, please forgive us for letting Green Barbarian go. Since there's no need to go to the Heavenly Serpent Palace anymore, I'll take my leave." Yunhua said goodbye to Medusa with Xian'er.

"Master Yun, where will we go next?" Medusa asked with a faint smile.

"I guess I'll go to Canaan Academy." Yunhua planned to go and see the Fallen Heart Flame and try to understand it.

“Oh, in that case, why don’t we travel together? I also want to go to the Black Corner Region to choose a territory as a habitat for the Snake People. After all, this desert is too desolate. The Black Corner Region is vast, but the forces are complex and intertwined, which is more suitable for the Snake People to develop.”

“That’s fine. In that case, I’ll go to the Black Corner Region with Queen Medusa. I wonder when the Queen will depart?” Yunhua had no objection to traveling with Medusa.

"Once my injuries have healed, I should be fully recovered in a few more days." Medusa's injuries were almost healed, which was why she planned to travel with Yunhua.

"In that case, I won't disturb the Queen's recovery any longer. It's good for her to recover soon. I'll go back to my room to rest first." Yunhua bid farewell to Medusa and returned directly to her previous guest room.

"Brother Yun, I wonder how the Sect Master Yun is doing?" Xian'er asked, somewhat curious about Yun Yun's situation.

"Hehe, with his strength sealed at the level of a one-star Dou Wang and his meridians severed, unless he has a seventh-grade or higher pill, he will probably never be able to improve even a little bit in his life." Yun Hua didn't care about Yun Yun's choice. Everyone has to pay the price for their choices and actions.

"That's terrible! Descending from Dou Huang to Dou Wang is even worse than that old man Hai Bodong." Although Xian'er didn't know why Yun Hua hadn't cured Yun Yun directly, she didn't intend to ask.

"Yun Yun's master, Yun Shan, is colluding with the Soul Hall. It is estimated that Yun Shan is considering whether to obey the Soul Hall's orders in order to obtain the resources to break through to the Dou Zong level. However, after this incident, it is estimated that Yun Shan will directly choose to cooperate with the Soul Hall."

"Brother Yun, isn't the Soul Palace a famous and powerful force in Zhongzhou? Why would it cooperate with Yunshan?" Xian'er asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Hehe, this Soul Palace is actually a subordinate force of the Soul Clan, one of the eight ancient clans. Their current actions are only two: one is to collect the souls of powerful individuals and alchemists, and the other is to search for the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade. The Soul Palace's cooperation with Yunshan is merely to explore the news of the Xiao family's Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade." Yunhua was naturally well aware of all this.

"Ah, why do we need to collect powerful souls? And what is the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade?"

"The Soul Clan is a clan that cultivates the soul. Their techniques can devour the souls of powerful individuals, allowing them to break through to the Emperor Realm and achieve strength comparable to a Nine-Star Battle Saint."

As for the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, it is the key to unlocking the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Mansion, the last recorded Dou Di in the Dou Qi Continent.

There are eight pieces of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, each held by one of the eight ancient clans. Obtaining all eight pieces allows one to open the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Palace and obtain a semi-finished Emperor Pill containing primordial Emperor Qi, thus enabling one to break through to the Dou Di realm.

"So there are so many secrets! It's really complicated. Why are there no Dou Di on the Dou Qi Continent now?"

"A nine-star Dou Sheng needs primordial emperor qi to break through to Dou Di, but primordial emperor qi has not been generated for tens of thousands of years. Some ancient Dou Di have ascended to the Great Thousand World, either dying on the Dou Qi Continent or on their ascension journey."

"Doesn't that mean that only one person can break through to the Dou Di realm now, since there's only a wisp of primordial emperor energy?" Xian'er said after careful consideration.

Chapter Ninety-Four: Someone Always Comes to Deliver Their Head

Five days later, at dawn, Yunhua finished his night of cultivation. He was currently trying to refine the world's origin, as his spiritual sense was urging him on. So far, although Yunhua was not yet able to refine the world's origin, he could still manage to dissipate a wisp of the world's power that had been leaking out.

Therefore, Yunhua's strength increased rapidly. Even the slightest bit of world power could make Yunhua feel a noticeable improvement after refining it, given his current size. Today, Yunhua has reached the mid-stage of the fourth level of the Golden Core realm, making him even more formidable.

Just as Yunhua was about to go out and inquire about Medusa's progress, he sensed the presence of two Dou Zong auras outside the royal city.

In fact, a few days ago, Yun Yun returned to Yunlan Sect and told Yun Shan that her cultivation had been sealed by Medusa, who had reached the Dou Zong realm. She came to inquire about how to break the seal and heal her damaged meridians.
