Under One Person, your rebellious life has reached the heavens?

Not only were the Ji Clan cultivators greatly encouraged, but even their allies were excited. This was an unparalleled Dao Lord, even more powerful than the Forbidden Zone Ruler!

With him present, the outcome of the battle could be turned in an instant.

"Cough cough..."

Ying Yu, who had been injured, was resurrected. A deep sense of fear appeared in his eyes. He did not expect that the Ji clan had such an old monster in charge. His face immediately darkened and veins bulged on his forehead.

"Ji Yunyu!!!"

Do you really think I'm afraid of you?

Ying Yu roared in resentment. With a thought, the giant cauldron in the hand of the Flying Immortal Giant Shadow trembled slightly, emitting a bright light that shattered many of the stolen artifacts and ancient runes.

It is true that there is a difference in their cultivation levels, but it is not to the point that they cannot fight each other. Under normal circumstances, if he is not ambushed, it would not be so easy for the other party to hurt him.

"Whether you are afraid or not, no one cares about the remnants of the Ying clan. It is truly tragic that they have abandoned the bloodline given to them by their ancestors and thrown themselves into darkness."

Ji Yunyu coldly looked down at the arrogant Ying Yu, shook his head in disappointment, and said:

"Although we share the same blood, I cannot let you live today."

"Then come!"

Ying Yu's eyes turned bloodshot, and he went berserk, joining forces with Huang, the ruler of the forbidden zone, to fight fiercely against the true world king of the Ji clan.

In an instant, the center of the entire battlefield shifted to this place, and no one else could get close enough to intervene. The intense struggle between the three was particularly terrifying.

The shock of the scene before them made everyone unaware that the dark bloodline power that had been binding them had silently dissipated and been covered by an even more terrifying human king bloodline. This not only restored their peak power but also boosted their overall strength, making them 25% stronger than before!

"Boom!!!"

"Boom!"

The three ultimate beings fought relentlessly. Even though Ji Yunyu was strong, he couldn't withstand the barrage of attacks from Ying Yu and Huang. Soon, he was wounded and bleeding.

This scene captivated the hearts of all spectators; without a doubt, the battle between these three determined the outcome of the war.

With the projections of the Flying Immortal Dao Lord and the Ancient Dao Lord of the Ying Clan, Ji Yunyu joined the battle one after another. Facing the encirclement and suppression of three supreme peak Dao Lords and a Nine Palaces Nine Stars Dark Ruler, Ji Yunyu was gradually forced into a disadvantageous position.

"Outnumbering the weak? Then let's do it."

Ji Yunyu summoned two more innate magical artifacts: the Yin-Yang Life and Death Sword and the Blood-Drinking Bone-Shattering Whip. If the Black Profound Cauldron had not been shattered by Jiang Mo, it could have been used by him at this moment as well.

With the two innate magical artifacts unleashed, they withstood the combined attacks from multiple sides. However, this was not the end.

"kill--!"

As Ji Yunyu spoke, thirteen afterimages burst forth from his body in an instant. They were terrifying puppets, including supreme peak Dao Lords and Nine Palaces Sovereigns. They were all collectibles hunted by the Root Plague during its most prosperous years and later seized by him.

"!!!"

The astonishing number of them made Ying Yu and Huang, the Lord of the Forbidden Zone, unable to help but curse. "This damn bastard, where did he get his resources from?!"

The Forbidden Zone Overlord Huang's expression turned cold, his dark eyes flashing with a dangerous light, and he decisively used his bloodline divine power, Burning Universe.

Its body suddenly swelled, forming a strange substance resembling insect eggs, entering a certain advanced stage. In less than a breath, a new being tore apart the insect eggs and emerged.

Huang displayed a new form, his combat power surged, and he unleashed a dark Qi blade, repelling a group of puppets.

"Boom!!!"

The great battle continued, the fighting relentless. The cultivators from both sides clashed again, while the two other forbidden zone lords led their dark armies with unstoppable force, causing the combined human and demon forces to suffer repeated defeats.

Ji Yunyu was extremely anxious, but powerless to help, and even he himself was in grave danger.

Suddenly, an ancient, weathered horn sounded, as if unveiling a new war. The mysterious underworld slowly emerged, hanging upside down in the void. A surging river of souls swept across the mortal realm, and a nearly decaying warship crossed over, from which a hoarse voice came from.

"Fellow Daoist of the Azure Sky Tree, how about we call it a day and do this old man a favor?"

The reinforcements that Emperor Wu sought have arrived. An ultimate being, also an unknown ruler of a forbidden zone, spoke up.

"You're not ready yet. Get your master from behind!"

Huang sneered repeatedly, his attacks becoming increasingly fierce. He slapped the ethereal underworld, shattering everything in its path.

"Then let the battle begin..."

A hazy gray figure emerged, its voice tinged with helplessness. It joined the battle, joining forces with the True World King to fight against Huang.

"The brilliance of this world truly satisfies me!!!"

Huang was so angry that it laughed. In its view, it was only right to reap all living beings in the world. Unexpectedly, two obstacles appeared in this era. It wanted to see if these troubles could withstand its wrath.

"Boom!!!"

Immediately, the two masters of the forbidden zones, Ji and Yuan, also used their original divine powers, unleashing astonishing combat power beyond the norm.

The brutal war began, lasting for three whole days and nights without end. The heavens and earth trembled, and hundreds of thousands of miles of land in the Immortal Realm were reduced to dust.

No matter how hard the old man from the underworld and the true human king fought, they could not avoid defeat. The elites of the three forces were slaughtered and turned into food for the dark creatures and the ruler.

In the end, the old man from the underworld, Ji Yunyu, retreated with serious injuries, not daring to fight to the death. The three lords of the forbidden zones and Ying Yu paid a considerable price to achieve a complete victory and crush the three-way alliance.

"kill!"

At Huang's command, the raging army surged towards the Immortal Realm ahead. The Imperial Dynasty collapsed, the Sword Sect fell, and the Imperial Preceptor and many monarchs died in battle.

Darkness enveloped the land, and an era filled with despair officially began.

............

Rewind to a few days ago, beneath the vast abyss of the Evil Soul Sea, more than ten figures emerged from a void portal.

When Jiang Mo first arrived, he was also shocked by the enormous sealed stone gate. There were countless ancient formations imprinted on it, which had increased to an extremely terrifying level over the years, aiming to completely trap and kill the evil spirits inside.

"Finally... I'm back."

Looking at the heavy sealing formation, the source of the plague was filled with emotion. Its two remnant souls sensed each other through the stone gate. As long as they made contact, it could be completely resurrected and its combat power would rise to another level.

"This...is the Sea of ​​Evil Souls?!"

Upon arriving, Zhao Linyu was startled. The terrifying resentment and malevolent energy around him, as well as the various deformed creatures that appeared and disappeared, reminded the well-informed Zhao Linyu of the infamous forbidden zone in the Eastern Wilderness—the Evil Soul Sea, which was said to be a place where evil beings capable of overthrowing the Immortal Realm were sealed.

That evil entity once caused a direct break in a glorious era of the Eastern Wilderness, resulting in the deaths of countless powerful human beings. Later, even the supreme Dao Lord of the Central Continent went there, but the result remained the same, and they were even reduced to slaves.

The thought sent a chill down Zhao Lin's spine. His eyes darted around, and his mind was filled with a numbing fear. Just what were the origins of these creatures before him?!

Can the seal be broken?!

Chapter 620 Those who understand the times are also heroes.

"Fellow Daoist, I would like to trouble you to help me break these formations."

Just as Zhao Linyu was lost in thought, he heard a hoarse, soft laugh.

Turning his head, he saw the source of the plague staring at him with hopeful eyes. Those cold pupils made Zhao Linyu instinctively feel physically uncomfortable, as if he were being stared at by a venomous snake waiting for its chance.

"Fellow Daoist, what is your background?"

Zhao Linyu did not agree immediately, but instead suppressed his inner fear and calmly asked this question.

He knew that what he was about to do could bring terrible disaster to the world, and he was caught in a dilemma.

Not only was Zhao Linyu curious and confused, but the other prisoners who had followed also narrowed their eyes and held their breath, waiting for the answer.

"Hmph, who am I? Fellow Daoist, don't you already have the answer in your heart?"

The source of the disease smiled faintly, pressed his left hand against the stone door and tapped it several times, jokingly saying to himself:

“My true body is inside, enduring the torment of the Primordial Heavenly Fire. What you see now is merely a resurrected, mutilated body.”

These words definitively confirmed its identity: the legendary Ancient Emperor of Calamity who unleashed a catastrophe more than 40,000 years ago was, in the records of the demon race, a demon emperor qualified to claim the title of the strongest.

Throughout its history, spanning 40,000 years before and 40,000 years after, no demon emperor could compare to it.

As the truth came to light, the faces of the prisoners present changed slightly. They had initially thought that they had followed them in search of opportunities, but who would have thought that one of the cultivators leading the group was the ominous source imprisoned by the Evil Soul Sea?

A bone-chilling cold instantly crept up everyone's spines; they were somewhat experienced and knew about past events.

Especially the infamous Root Plague, which I had long heard of, was said to cause extremely tragic ends to all living beings infected by it, turning them into unrecognizable monsters.

Zhao Linyu's body stiffened as if he had been electrocuted. He looked at the source of the plague, Jiang Mo, and almost lost the ability to speak. His previous joy turned into hesitation and awkwardness.

The source of the disease's expression turned cold, and he was about to urge them on when Jiang Mo raised his hand to stop him.

“Fellow Daoist, if you have any concerns, please speak them freely. We are not unreasonable people.”

Jiang Mo's gentle attitude eased the tense atmosphere that had just been there.

Zhao Linyu frowned, pondered for a moment, and then frankly said:

"I do not know what your purpose is, but releasing such a forbidden zone ruler will probably bring irreparable disaster to the world, causing the entire Immortal Realm to fall, including my sect and hometown."

“A wise man knows what to do and what not to do. I have heard many legends about the myriad calamities, but I never thought they were right before my eyes. Forgive me for not having the courage to stake the fate of all living beings on releasing it without authorization.”

"..." The root of the plague looked at the old man calmly, not at all surprised, and fell silent on the spot.

"Then what makes you think that if it doesn't appear, your Immortal Realm won't face any calamities relative to you?"

Jiang Mo smiled faintly, making no attempt to conceal his origins:

"I am a being who emerged from another forbidden zone of life, the Abyss. Before I ascended, the three major powers of the Eastern Wilderness of the Immortal Realm—the Great Ye Dynasty, the Sunset Royal Court, and the Void Sword Sect—repeatedly coveted our world and planted many pawns in it, which led to numerous conflicts."

"Years ago, when I was still trapped in Tianyuan, I said that I would let them wash their necks and wait for me to come out. Now, the Sunset Royal Court has been forced to flee to the starry sky by me. The destruction of the Imperial Dynasty and the Sword Sect is only a matter of time."

"This is a war between worlds. As one of the Tianyuan faction, if I so desire, disaster will break out in the Eastern Wilderness in an instant. I guarantee that absolutely no one can stop me."

"You... are you a being from Tianyuan?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of fear flashed in Zhao Linyu's eyes. Yet another terrifying existence from a forbidden zone of life had been born.

“We are all.” Flying Immortal Master glanced at him.

"By the way, let me confirm this: this kid is indeed stronger than me, even compared to my peak condition, he is by no means weaker."

At this point, the source of the epidemic once again made a startling statement.

Instantly, Zhao Linyu and the prisoners felt a wave of terror wash over them, as if they were in the deepest hell. Just what level of cultivation did the man before them possess?!

"........"

Cold sweat streamed down Zhao Linyu's forehead. He gritted his teeth, barely managing to meet the gazes of the two men, and insisted on his opinion:

Even so.........

"Then you go."

Jiang Mo interrupted the old man's speech, and with a wave of his hand, a void portal leading to the outside world appeared. As for where it led, it was unknown, since Jiang Mo had not specifically locked onto the exact location.

"Huh?" Zhao Linyu was stunned, caught off guard by this sudden scene, and even thought he had misheard.

"?!"

The source of the disease was initially puzzled, but then it understood. It knew Jiang Mo's character; he probably didn't want to beg for help at this moment, nor did he want to take Zhao Linyu's life. Perhaps there was still a solution, so it let Zhao Linyu go.

"Wasn't I clear enough? You can leave now. I can destroy these seals even without you."

Jiang Mo smiled amiably. He placed his right hand on the massive stone gate, and with a sudden burst of force from his five fingers, the seal trembled violently, causing the seabed to shake as if it were a magnitude 6.0 tsunami or earthquake.

Zhao Linyu's pupils contracted sharply. His intuition told him that the man in front of him was not lying, and he blurted out instinctively:

"Then why do you still want to go to the Heavenly Prison to rescue me? Isn't your purpose to break the seal?"

"Yes, it's good to make more preparations. As the saying goes, sharpening the axe won't delay the work of chopping wood. But if I'm strong enough, I won't need to 'sharpen the axe,' and I won't need to trouble you, the 'sharpener.'"

"Did you hear that? Since you're unwilling to help, then leave quickly and don't make things worse for yourself. Our grudges will be wiped clean here. But if I find out that you dare to hinder my escape, don't blame me for turning my back on you."

The source of the plague spoke coldly, and the murderous intent emanating from his body caused the temperature on the seabed to drop sharply. Zhao Linyu and the prisoners who were closer to him were all trembling with fear, having the illusion that they were infinitely close to death.

Now it was Zhao Linyu's turn to be confused, and he dared not send the news back to the sect in Zhongzhou.

Suddenly, a saber-toothed dragon in the crowd slowly spoke:

"Fellow Daoist, you've been locked up for a thousand years. Has your brain rotted away?"

"Since it's already decided, it's the same whether you're here or not. Don't you understand how to choose?"

"The Eastern Wilderness has the most and strongest forbidden zones in the entire Immortal Realm. You should feel honored to have these two supreme experts from these forbidden zones speaking to you today. Otherwise, when other forbidden zones emerge and reap the rewards in the future, how will you and your sect protect yourselves?"

"With their protection, as fellow beings of the forbidden zone, how dare those who covet you act rashly?"

"To put it simply, if you help, you'll only benefit; if you don't help, you won't benefit at all."

The dragon's voice was extremely ancient, indicating it had lived for two or three thousand years. This ruler of the Eight Palaces, after admonishing Zhao Linyu, slowly swam to Jiang Mo's side and bowed in submission, saying:

"Fellow Daoist, I am willing to follow you and become your mount to repay the kindness of saving me."
