Chapter 1215: An enormous Lake
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Even though Xue Ying could only vaguely perceive that Chaotic Origin Lifeform–he could not even count the number of 'eyes' accurately–Xue Ying could easily imagine what would happen when the dense number of eyes stared at the enemy. The enemy would fall into an illusory realm before being killed! With attacks coming from both fronts, even if the enemy survived, his soul would be heavily influenced, diminishing the combat power he could unleash.
'Such a Chaotic Origin Lifeform is bigger than even a sacred world! I reckon a nation like Summer Wind Ancient Nation would easily be smashed into smithereens when this lifeform smash into it.' Xue Ying sighed inwardly. Fortunately, such terrifying existences were handled by other similarly powerful Chaotic Origin experts like 'Yuan' or 'Luo City Lord'.
Over at the capital of Summer Wind Ancient Nation, within the Fan Clan Magic Mountain.
Underneath the low and thick Burning Heart God Tree, a white-robed young man sat cross-legged underneath its huge crown.
To prevent Undying Underworld Emperor from discovering him, this avatar cultivating under the Burning Heart God Tree had altered his appearance and aura. But given the security of the Summer Wind Capital and vigilance of the Fan Clan, it was almost impossible for Undying Underworld Emperor to extend his senses into this place.
"Hua."
A piece of leaf that looked like a violet jade sculpture fell. Xue Ying watched. At the same time, a grin formed on his mouth.
In his mind, he easily remembered the structures of the illusory realm in those 33 mysterious eyes which he examined before. Those two kinds of illusory realms–one to entice and lure the enemy in, and the other to wipe out the soul of the enemy. There were 25 gray eyes that were part of the same illusory realm with different sections of its structure. Despite integrating them together, there were still many missing pieces. Nonetheless, it gave Xue Ying a pleasant feeling.
It was absolutely beautiful.
'The more one understood the Dao, the more he could comprehend from the Dao'.
Currently, Xue Ying was already 'close to comprehending the Dao'; he was just one strand away from reaching the final realm. Hence, he had the capabilities to discern how extraordinary the structure of each mysterious eye was.
'Given my current realm, I dare not hope to grasp the same killing move as that terrifying Chaotic Origin Lifeform.' Xue Ying thought, 'But it is possible for me to create a killing technique corresponding to my Dao.'
Why a killing technique?
Like the Dao of Void, it contained nine branches altogether. Of which fusing five branches would make it possible to create a grand perfection 'Five Phases Sealing Technique'. This was a powerful skill that had reached the boundary of level-three Cosmos God.
With the same realm, different applications of the Dao gave rise to different possibilities of creating techniques with varying power.
Because Xue Ying comprehended the supreme secret impartation, he had created five great killing techniques in the Dao of Void! Any killing technique had the power of an ordinary peak Cosmos God.
As for the 'Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm', even though his accumulations in it was deep, Xue Ying had yet to create any heaven-defying killing technique. In order to create one, he had to first gain an inspiration! Or to watch others execute their techniques! Or possibly by extrapolating from the inherent mysteries of a supreme-graded secret treasure! Or even to be guided by a supreme secret impartation. Regardless, killing techniques would usually be created when there was inspiration.
And when there was guidance, it would be much easier to create one.
Currently, these gray and golden eyes were a form of guidance to Xue Ying.
'By simplifying and absorbing the essence, I should be able to for my own killing technique. Once I have done so, it would definitely increase my understanding of the Dao, greatly improving my chances of reaching the final realm.' Xue Ying looked forward to it.
He closed his eyes and continued cultivating. The structures of the 33 mysterious eyes were being dissected and analyzed continuously. They were also being used to deduce further comprehensions with his current understanding of the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm.
Furthermore, with the support by this 'Burning Heart God Tree', Xue Ying's efficiency in cultivation was incredibly good.
Xue Ying's avatar that was cultivating underneath the Burning Heart God Tree as well as that avatar which wielded the Chaotic Origin Weapon and guarded the Flying Snow City were the two avatars with complete souls. Other major avatars including those that were adventuring in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range were in reality, only at 70% of his total soul power!
Because he had absorbed the core blood of the Myriad Tentacles Dragon Mother before, Xue Ying's soul was exceptionally powerful.
Even at 70% of his total soul power, Xue Ying could easily cast an illusory realm and to multi-task by unleashing other killing techniques.
'Over time as my realm deepens, the support provided by the Burning Heart God Tree would decrease.' Xue Ying could feel the assistance by the Burning Heart God Tree on his cultivation. Nonetheless, the effects from the Burning Heart God Tree were weakening over time. Ultimately, it was still more helpful than many other cultivating-assisting items.
The three of them descended on a sky-floating island. This was also the 34th island which they would be exploring.
"I hope that there are some precious treasures waiting for us on this island. The harvest we had on the previous one was simply negligible." Insect Ancestor said.
"It is normal for our harvest to vary from island to island. Even though there are some which are greatly useful to us cultivators, and not really useful to the Death Destruction Clan or the natives, many cultivators from the Realm Heart Great Land have explored the places too. It is likely for quite a few islands to have been explored by other unparalleled existences." Xue Ying chuckled, "Talking about which, our harvest is quite huge already."
"It is all thanks to Big Brother Flying Snow and Brother Bewitching Sword." Insect Ancestor chuckled, "Allowing me to freeload my way."
"It is also thanks to the Blood Flame Clan." Xue Ying said, "Let's go. We should be careful. Even though this sky-floating island isn't that dangerous, and that we have quite a detailed intelligence on this place, it is still better for us to remain alert. Otherwise, we might just meet with some unexpected failure and fall in certain ambient dangers."
Islands with a slightly more detailed intelligence only stipulated the majority of dangers present, and not all of them.
"Go." The black robe on Insect Ancestor disintegrated, turning into many insects that flew in all directions.
Xue Ying also began casting his illusory realm.
Swordmaster had the easiest time. He was needed only when meeting a powerful expert.
"Hu."
The three of them advanced forward with great familiarity. They maintained several concealing techniques.
The three of them were experienced. Even though such concealing techniques were not that useful–they suffered from an unseen aura repulsion in the entire sky-floating island, and the Death Destruction Clan could easily perceive them when they were near! But it was still better than simply traveling carefreely across the place.
Given their experience, they could not delay traveling in the sky-floating island! They had to be fast! The slower they were, the easier they would be discovered.
And once they were discovered, the Death Destruction Clan would send their troops to kill them! Given Xue Ying's illusory realm technique, even 'Kings' would be killed–unless they were at peak 'Kings'. And once these troops were killed, information to the Death Destruction Clan would be delayed. They were even able to rush to the core of the sky-floating island in about two hours before being discovered by the Death Destruction Clan. In the end, those 'Kings' that stood at the very apex were forced to retreat… because when the illusory realm descended, the Death Destruction Clan did not dare to inform their 'Emperor'.
Hence, Xue Ying left an avatar to intimidate everyone.
And that was how they easily left the place!
At that point of time, they had almost overturned the entire place! Their harvest was incredibly huge!
As they left the place, that 'Emperor' in the sky-floating island remained asleep. Nonetheless, Xue Ying did not dare to act against the Emperor. His illusory realm also enveloped the surrounding without touching the 'Emperor' since it would spell trouble! As for killing the slumbering Emperor? It was almost impossible to kill the Emperor even if it did not retaliate. The 'Death Destruction Clan' was ultimately quite similar to the 'natives'–their bodies were strong.
They were unlike from cultivators that relied on supreme-graded secret treasures and other external force.
But…
Sweeping across the sky-floating island and overturning the entire place with the Emperor still asleep as they left… the three of them only did so once.
Of course, these 'experiences' gave them a realization that it would be best to delay the point that they were discovered.
"Sou sou sou!"
The three of them were charing forward at high speed.
"Something seems amiss. Stop." Xue Ying looked ahead. He saw an enormous lake before them. That lake occupied an area spanning billions of kilometers. It was huge! And there was slight ripples on the water.
"Why would there be such a huge lake?" Swordmaster was similarly startled.
Xue Ying had given the intelligence to Swordmaster and Insect Ancestor to peruse. He had absolute trust in Swordmaster. As for Insect Ancestor Ba Tuo Chen, given that the other party chose to help him when he was in grave danger, Xue Ying chose to trust him too.
And as the three of them understood the intelligence of this place, they knew something was amiss as they examined that enormous lake solemnly.
"The intelligence provided by the Blood Flame Clan should be right. We have already explored the 18 sky-floating islands where the intelligence is complete. Even though the intelligence on this sky-floating island is relatively detailed and there are missing parts… it is impossible for them not to record down a lake that is of such a huge size." Insect Ancestor Ba Tuo Chen muttered, "And it is impossible for the Blood Flame Clan to forge their intelligence. So where did this lake come from?"
Previously, after exploring the 33 sky-floating islands, they no longer had any suspicions on the intelligence provided by the Blood Flame Clan.
"This lake…" The three of them could feel that something was wrong.
"Let me have a look." Xue Ying waved his hand, causing a major avatar to appear. This avatar advanced forward before casting down an illusory realm. As he got closer to the lake, it was at a point where his illusory realm contacted that lake.
And it was at this moment that the enormous lake started moving.
"Hong long–"
It felt as if the world had reversed! The enormous lake turned into a huge bloody mouth which belonged to an incredibly huge lifeform. This life form was humongous! Half his body appeared from illusion, and another remained beyond the horizons. Its mouth soon came down. Even though Xue Ying and the others traveled at an extremely fast speed, it was almost impossible for them to escape from the region covered by that bloody mouth.
"It's the Chaotic Origin Lifeform 'Emperor Deep Stone'!." Swordmaster was greatly aghast.
The expressions on Xue Ying and Insect Ancestor became uglier. This was the most frightening enemy that had met since the start of their expeditions to the sky-floating islands. It even gave them the feeling of despair.
"It is unlikely for us to escape this time." Insect Ancestor murmured.

Chapter 1216: Complete Wipeout
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
The sudden appearance of Emperor Deep Stone's upper half body had awed the entire sky-floating island. The Death Destruction clansmen on that sky-floating island including the 'Emperor' who had awoken were all apprehensive.
"He has started hunting again." The 'Emperor' on this sky-floating island was a seemingly thin and weak red-robed girl. She stood in the clans-ground. Behind her were her group of subordinates. They were all surveying that incredibly huge figure. Ever since 'Emperor Deep Stone' arrived on this sky-floating island, the master of this sky-floating island had been Emperor Deep Stone instead. The Emperor of the Death Destruction Clan did not dare to challenge him.
Even though they could survive, they were simply trampled upon by Emperor Deep Stone! Fortunately, Emperor Deep Stone disliked eating those from the Death Destruction Clan. He would spend most of his time sleeping at this sky-floating island. Only when he met natives or cultivators would he be willing to devour them.
"Absorb!"
That bloody mouth of Emperor Deep Stone began sucking up everything beneath it.
Light became warped–turning the place dark. Time and space were also becoming distorted. An incredibly huge force pulled up on Xue Ying, Insect Ancestor and Swordmaster.
"Brother Bewitching Sword, we have to depend on you now. But it's fine even if we die, it's just that it will take some time and quite a huge price for me to regain my body!" Insect Ancestor transmitted.
"Swordmaster, we have to rely on your skills now. I can't do anything about it." Xue Ying transmitted over too.
Swordmaster coldly waved his hand before keeping Xue Ying and Insect Ancestor by his side.
He did not have the time to save that distant major avatar of Xue Ying which went forward to probe the lake. Under the terrifying devouring force, that major avatar had rapidly been engulfed into the enormous mouth of Emperor Deep Stone. Deep in the mouth, there was a piece of distorting crimson that Xue Ying saw. Following that, Xue Ying felt incredibly hot!
Even though his body could be compared to level-three Cosmos God body cultivators, under this blazing heat, his body was disintegrated.
'An avatar seems to be powerless against this terrifying existence.' Xue Ying sighed inwardly. The strength of Emperor Deep Stone was beyond that of the trapped 'Myriad Tentacles Dragon Son'! But the overall strength of Realm Heart Great Land was still powerful. Furthermore, the lower-graded Chaotic Origin Lifeforms, and the terrifying native and Death Destruction existences could not penetrate through the membrane and leave Broken Tooth Mountain Range.
According to the intelligence.
The Chaotic Origin Lifeforms living in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range were simply low-graded lifeforms. There were only a few of them too. It was quite rare to meet any one of them! It was common for them to be powerful. It was fine for unparalleled existences to survive against most of them. But the eight strongest lifeforms were termed as Great Sages.
Emperor Deep Stone! Was also called 'Great Sage Deep Stone'. He was one of the eight Great Sages! If Emperor Summer met with one with his supreme-graded secret treasure, he could still escape from it. But for Xue Ying and the rest to survive? Chances of succeeding were too miniscule!
Of course, the most terrifying existences within the Broken Tooth Mountain Range were still the top five peak existences in the Death Destruction Clan and the Natives. They were also called 'Five Supremes'.
The Five Supremes!
Three were from the Death Destruction Clan and two from the Natives.
They were the true overlords of the vast Broken Tooth Mountain Range. At their level of strength, even Undying Underworld Emperor and Emperor Summer would be easily killed! Hence, Undying Underworld Emperor wanted to refine a 'Death Walker' and fork out a huge price including a large-scale sacrificial ritual just for this. Nonetheless, Xue Ying intervened and disrupted his affair. Hence, even though Undying Underworld Emperor held an intense desire to venture into the deepest region of the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, he did not dare to do so.
Because the best resources and most unique territories in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range were all occupied by the five Supremes!
They did not care about the five Supremes.
Instead, just this Emperor Deep Stone before them sufficed in bringing anxiety to Xue Ying, Insect Ancestor, and Swordmaster.
"Did they not say that chances of meeting a low-graded Chaotic Origin Lifeform is miniscule? We have explored for 30 over sky-floating islands. It is fine if we met one, yet the one we meet is one of the eight Great Sages, Emperor Deep Stone!" Insect Ancestor felt bitter.
Xue Ying was doing his utmost with his illusory realm from within the Eden Treasure.
"Hong~"
The illusory realm pervaded the surroundings. Even though it contacted just a small part of Emperor Deep Stone's body, it invaded his soul. Nonetheless, Chaotic Origin Lifeforms were too special. Many parts of their bodies were made from the Supreme Law. Any piece of scale and bone contained profound mysteries. Similarly, their souls were incredibly powerful. Even though their intelligence was ordinary, they were merely mildly disturbed by the illusory realm, causing the strength of Emperor Deep Stone to decrease by just 10%.
'What I can do is just these. Swordmaster, everything will have to depend on you now.' Xue Ying sighed inwardly. Even though he brought the Void Fire Lotus Flower with him and had nine major avatars working together, they still could not resist against the devour of Emperor Deep Stone.
"Hua!"
A dazzling sword light tore apart the endless darkness.
Swordmaster held onto his sword and broke apart the heavy restrictive forces. He was trying his best to rush outwards!
"Si la!" The enormous claws of Emperor Deep Stone were seemingly made from rock. They appeared from the darkness and came down at Swordmaster rapidly. Swordmaster did his best to resist against it.
"Peng!"
The sword light were scattered.
And Swordmaster was forced backwards with a mouthful of blood.
"Hahaha…" Emperor Deep Stone guffawed. His laughter reverberated across the entire sky-floating island as if he was enjoying the battle.
Within the Eden Treasure.
Xue Ying and Insect Ancestor were both nervously watching outside. They saw as Swordmaster struggled bitterly.
"He is too powerful." Insect Ancestor could not help but comment, "Bewitching Sword has an unparalleled power. Furthermore, his techniques are quite perfect in many areas. Even Eternal Night Primogenitor or Moonflower King might not perform better than Brother Bewitching Sword."
"We can only blame our luck on encountering Emperor Deep Stone." Xue Ying felt helpless, "Furthermore, it seems that Emperor Deep Stone is treating this as an entertainment. He isn't using all his strength. What a pity that us cultivators suffer from repulsion in the sky-floating island and could not teleport. We can only fly slowly! Hence, Emperor Deep Stone isn't worried that we can escape."
"Ai!" The expression on Insect Ancestor twitched.
Xue Ying frowned too. Because Swordmaster's body had been cut apart. Even though it was rapidly recovering, the body of Swordmaster was entangled with a strange gray energy.
Approximately ten over breath of time later.
"Xue Ying, Insect Ancestor, I can't hold on any longer." The figure of Swordmaster transmitted over.
"Hong!"
Very soon, the Eden Treasure exploded.
Xue Ying and Insect Ancestor gave each other a smile. Even though they struggled and tried to escape, under the endless force of 'Emperor Deep Stone', they were still absorbed and devoured.
"I'll have to take some time to recover. After I'm done, I'll come over to the Flying Snow City. Big Brother Flying Snow, do help me take care of my treasures." As he was being devoured, Insect Ancestor transmitted over.
"Rest assured. I'll not covet what are yours." Xue Ying smiled.
Swordmaster, Xue Ying, and Insect Ancestor. This team of three was completely wiped!
Flying Snow City.
At a garden piled with snow, Xue Ying stood alone here looking up at the sky. There was a figure currently condensing above. It was also the incarnation of Swordmaster.
"Xue Ying." Swordmaster came down. There was a strand of helplessness on his face, "I've disappointed the few of you in failing to resist against Emperor Deep Stone."
"At least you could still resist against him! I don't even have the slightest chance of struggling back." Xue Ying chuckled, "Furthermore, we have prepared ourselves in losing our avatars prior to entering the Broken Tooth Mountain Range. Even though it is regretful that we lost all our treasures, we have gained quite a huge harvest in the previous 33 sky-floating islands."
Swordmaster nodded: "I'm not in a rush. We can distribute them after Insect Ancestor returns."
"With his strength, he would require some time to regain his body." Xue Ying said, "He doesn't have any avatars, and it should be a form of innate revival technique a final realm insect have."
"Our expedition in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range saw us exploring many sky-floating islands. Xue Ying, it's thanks to you that we were able to gain more than what we expected. We had even encountered several opportunities." Swordmaster said, "Since we lost our avatars this time, and I had lost my weapon too, my strength is comparable to yours in this short period so I'll not visit the Broken Tooth Mountain Range for a while. I am prepared to enter closed-door cultivation and meditate properly. I haven't had the time to digest and consolidate those opportunities which I met at the Broken Tooth Mountain Range."
"You aren't going anymore?" Xue Ying felt strange.
"For now, yes." Swordmaster replied.
Xue Ying slightly nodded: "But I still plan on visiting. I still wish to see the other mysterious eyes."
"Haha, you have many avatars. By trying a few more times, it is possible for you to see those mysterious eyes." Swordmaster chuckled.
"Mn."
Xue Ying nodded.
Even though their harvest was great, Swordmaster lost an avatar of his and a piece of incredibly powerful Dao of Destruction secret treasure. Swordmaster was able to reach the unparalleled power because he had his supreme secret impartation coupled with an appropriate peak-graded secret treasure! Otherwise, his strength would be reduced. He no longer had the confidence of 'resisting and fighting' with his current strength in sky-floating island. It would simply be a gamble if he were to venture there now.
In terms of avatars, Swordmaster did not have as many as Xue Ying. Every loss would see him refine another slowly.
Firstly, he did not wish to delay Xue Ying. Secondly, he really wanted to cultivate! He wanted to absorb what he had gained during this period!
'Swordmaster plans on entering closed-door cultivation, and Insect Ancestor isn't able to regain his strength temporarily. If I were to rely on myself… I can only depend on my avatars and illusory realm technique.' Xue Ying thought. He had many avatars. But he dared not be overconfident of the fact that he could travel to the core of the sky-floating islands alone. Nonetheless, with the Mirage and Illusory Realm technique, he was still quite confident of sweeping all Kings.

Chapter 1217: Number One Killing Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm Technique (1)
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Within Broken Tooth Mountain Range.
On a sky-floating island, Xue Ying carefully proceeded forward. He released his Mirage and Illusory Realm around him while carefully paying attention to his surroundings.
A Death Destruction clansman stood at a distance spying on this weak little cultivator. The cultivator suffered from repulsion of the sky-floating island. Hence, even if he had a more heaven-defying concealing technique, the Death Destruction clansman could easily perceive his presence at a certain distance away.
"Hou."
If one said that the aurae of Insect Ancestor and Swordmaster were still filled with some intimidation on others.
Then Xue Ying's mere level-two Cosmos God aura did not make others feel intimidated at all. The eyes of this Death Destruction clansman were filled with greed. He wanted to eat this 'delicious prey' standing before him. With a flash, he easily crossed through the distance before reaching Xue Ying. But the moment it appeared, just as it was about to devour the cultivator before it, its consciousness shook and then it no longer knew what happened.
"Bang!"
It fell down onto the ground.
Xue Ying watched as the Death Destruction clansman fell dead onto the ground. As he extinguished the soul of this Death Destruction clansman, its body began dissipating like fog into the world. Xue Ying shook his head inwardly: 'Ordinary members of the Death Destruction Clan are like wild beasts, yet they are so powerful. Nature is incredible.'
The intelligence reports provided by Summer Wind Ancient Nation had some deductions in the past.
The Natives had a strand of bloodline from Chaotic Origin Lifeforms. And the Death Destruction Clan seemed to be a race which emerged from the death of Chaotic Origin Lifeforms. Their intelligence was much weaker than the Natives; an absolute majority of them were like wild beasts.
"Sou." Xue Ying continued advancing forward. This was the first time he ventured into a sky-floating island alone. His luck was quite good since he had not created any huge disturbances on his way to the core of this sky-floating island.
But the moment he bypassed the external perimeter barrier outside the clans-ground of this sky-floating island, the protectors were alerted.
"Intruders!"
"There are outsiders!"
The entire clans-ground immediately began moving.
The 'Kings' in the clans-ground immediately led their subordinates out. Seeing the white-robed young man flying over at high speed, the elites of the Death Destruction Clan within the clans-ground were both startled and full of disdain! Those who could stand guard in the clans-ground were all powerful. Most of them had slightly higher intelligence too.
"Such a weak cultivator actually succeeded in reaching the clans-ground with his luck? Nobody from the Death Destruction Clan actually discovered him until now?" These elites of the Death Destruction Clan naturally did not place Xue Ying in their eyes. After all, there had been cases in history where Paragon Master cultivators sent their avatars without treasures into the clans-ground by relying entirely on luck.
There were also some who entered deep into the sky-floating island by relying on luck.
It's just that there were few who could walk all the way into the clans-ground by relying on luck!
"Eat him." These Death Destruction clansmen were not merciful. Even though cultivators had arrived, and the things they gathered were stuff the Death Destruction Clan did not find useful, the Death Destruction Clan remained obstinate–they would not allow the cultivators to take their things and would eat them all!
"Weng."
A group of Death Destruction Clansmen suddenly appear next to Xue Ying. But at the next moment, they suddenly fell onto the ground. Even the leading 'King' had frighteningly fell onto the ground! Only peak Kings could barely maintain their consciousness before Xue Ying's illusory realm. Clearly, this 'King' did not have the willpower to do so.
But this time, Xue Ying did not kill them. He merely immersed those Death Destruction clansmen in an illusory realm without wiping their souls out.
"Hu." This group of Death Destruction clansmen all lost their consciousness. They were controlled by Xue Ying to float in midair around him.
Xue Ying continued walking forward.
"What is going on?"
"This, what is this?"
The region of the clans-ground was just this huge. Xue Ying's illusory realm covered a relatively small area, yet he easily enveloped the elites one after another. In the blink of an eye, several dozen Death Destruction elite were floating around Xue Ying deep asleep.
"Cultivator! You are seeking death!" A furious roar sounded. Under this sort of weird situation, the clans-ground naturally awakened the 'Emperor'.
Xue Ying had already seen the blood-colored river meandering around a bizarre tree. At the peak of the tree, there was a gray eye.
"Sou sou sou."
With a thought, Xue Ying easily released many avatars that flew in all directions.
"Emperor from the Death Destruction Clan, I come thus without vile intentions." Xue Ying said, "These Death Destruction clansmen are temporarily asleep. I have yet to kill them." As he spoke, Xue Ying was in reality memorizing the internal structure of that gray eye.
"Without vile intentions?" This was a fat spider-like Death Destruction expert. That spider-like Death Destruction expert had a human head that stared at Xue Ying.
"I come here seeking for some materials. These materials aren't useful to the Death Destruction Clan at all." Xue Ying continued, "Emperor of the Death Destruction Clan, you can be rest assured that I'll definitely not touch the treasures which are important to your Death Destruction Clan. I'll immediately leave after collecting the materials."
"Everything on this sky-floating island belongs to my Death Destruction Clan. You aren't qualified to take them away."
"They aren't useful to you."
"No. You aren't qualified to take them away." That Emperor stared at Xue Ying roaring, "Place them down and scram for me! I'll spare your life."
Xue Ying shouted back with slight indignance: "Even a single piece of material is not fine?"
"Impossible! It is benevolent of me to spare your life." The Emperor roared.
"Alright, I'll leave." Xue Ying gritted his teeth 'furiously' shouting, "But are you truly not going to chase after me? Would the other members of the Death Destruction Clan listen to your words?"
"Rest assured. They will listen to what I say. None of them dares to disobey me. Scram now." The Emperor coldly uttered.
Only then did Xue Ying waved his hand. The distant avatars rapidly converged at his direction. During this moment of convergence, he naturally delayed for more time.
'I've memorized everything.' Only then did Xue Ying let out a sigh of relief.
The reason why he spoke so much was because he was delaying for more time. Once he memorized the internal structure of this gray eye, he would have succeeded in his endeavor here.
"Bang, bang, bang…"
The surrounding sleeping Death Destruction clansmen began falling onto the ground.
And Xue Ying rapidly left: "I wish that you will keep your promise, Emperor."
The Emperor watched coldly at everything.
Those who reached his level had high intelligence. It's just that they were born as part of the Death Destruction Clan, causing their hearts to be filled with endless desire to kill! For the Emperor to control and spare the other party's life was already the bottomline of the Emperor. If the other party planned on taking a piece of material away? That would simply humiliate the 'Emperor'!
On another sky-floating island.
"They aren't dead." Similarly, a group of slumbering Death Destruction clansmen were floating around Xue Ying. And not far away, a group of other members from the Death Destruction Clan were also looking over in dread. They did not dare to come close to Xue Ying.
"I only require some materials that aren't of use to your Death Destruction Clan." Xue Ying hurriedly added.
He did not have the time to justify himself.
"Intruders, die!" An enormous palm rapidly flew across the void and came down.
"Madman." With a thought, Xue Ying immediately killed one of the floating Death Destruction clansmen. He did not kill the rest.
"Peng."
This avatar was exterminated.
Nevertheless, Xue Ying had released a group of avatars when he came to the clans-ground. The other avatars were scattered around staring at the golden eye.
"I only need a single thought to wipe out your Death Destruction Clan, Emperor. Don't force me to do so." The hundreds of avatars of Xue Ying said at the same time. His voice boomed. Those sleeping Death Destruction clansmen were still floating around him.
"Die."
That towering Emperor felt disdained.
To him, even if the other members of the Death Destruction Clan in the sky-floating island were killed, he would not care. One had to know that Death Destruction clansmen even sought to kill and devour one another! There were only a few 'Emperors' who cared about their subordinates. Some 'Emperors' really cared less about them. This was even when the Emperor had sufficient intelligence and willpower.
As for most Kings, they cared even less about if their subordinates lived or not.
"Truly a madman. I came to negotiate yet he isn't willing to talk? I haven't finished memorizing the illusory realm structure of that mysterious eye!" Xue Ying felt helpless. He knew that since the Emperor of that sky-floating island was awoken, he would most likely remain awake in the near future. Hence, it was not appropriate for Xue Ying to visit that sky-floating island again.
Time passed.
Xue Ying continued his exploration of many sky-floating islands. He succeeded in some, and failed in others. Those times he failed would see hundreds of avatars being killed. But Xue Ying had more than 10,000 avatars, and refining them back was something easily done.
Some precious materials that were beneficial to cultivators could be found deep in the sky-floating islands. And it was almost certain that they could be found in the clans-ground!
In the blink of an eye.
Xue Ying had personally visited more than 300 islands ever since he began his solo exploration journey.
He only succeeded to venture deep and return safely in 55 islands. The others saw his avatars wiped. Clearly, Xue Ying's conditions were very low, and there were 'Emperors' who were willing to spare Xue Ying. During these 55 times, none of them actually allowed Xue Ying to collect the materials. Xue Ying had discovered some precious materials regardless, and adding them up, he had earned an equivalent of two peak-graded secret treasures.
No other choice.
In the past, with 'Swordmaster' around, they could still fight with the Emperors.
But now, Xue Ying was completely helpless against the 'Emperors'. The Emperors could easily resist against his illusory realm and wipe him out.
But…
Even though his avatars were wiped out in many sky-floating islands, quite a few succeeded in memorizing the illusory realm structure of those mysterious eyes during the period of being killed.
Of these more than 300 islands…
Xue Ying had completely memorized the structures of 102 eyes. In addition to the 33 eyes he discovered previously, there were a total of 135 of them. In total, Xue Ying had already visited more than half the sky-floating islands recorded by the Blood Flame Clan where those mysterious eyes were found. And now, Xue Ying decided to stop his exploration.
Fan Clan Magic Mountain.
Underneath the short Burning Heart God Tree, there was a white-robed young man here.
At this moment, all avatars of Xue Ying were focused on cultivating. The reason why he stopped exploring was because he had entered a state of realization. The illusory realm structures from the 135 mysterious eyes––82 gray and 53 gold–gave Xue Ying an inspiration.
He focused entirely on comprehending and did not care about the outside world.
And in his heart, a very special illusory realm was gradually forming shape…

Sinking into a flash of realization, many ideas flooded his mind. This unique illusory realm was being filled up with different kinds of laws and profound mysteries. The illusory realm Xue Ying had casted in the past was never this complex! It was after his great accumulations and the spark of inspiration after examining the internal illusory realm structures of those mysterious eyes that led him into a state of madness…
This state of mind persisted for more than 10,000 years until that huge illusory realm was completed in his heart.
"Weng."
A circular plate-like illusory realm appeared in his sea of consciousness. It was dimmed.
It was beautiful and resplendent.
Furthermore, its very existence congealed Xue Ying's soul even further. This had been the first time he saw any improvement in his soul after absorbing the 'core blood of the Myriad Tentacles Dragon Mother'.
The 'Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm' was also a sort of soul Dao!
Its improvement would upgrade the quality of the soul and allow it to evolve.
'I, I actually created such a wondrous illusory realm world?' Xue Ying was filled with disbelief as he felt the newly-created illusory realm world condensed from laws in his sea of consciousness, 'This is really something that I created?'
Grand perfection.
Currently, Xue Ying had a vague feeling of reaching grand perfection in his soul. With the soul and fleshy body mutually nourishing one another, Xue Ying felt his body gradually raising in level.
'In the past, it has always been my fleshy body that nourishes the soul. This is still the first time I am feeling my soul improving and strengthening my fleshy body.' Xue Ying was incredibly startled. In the past, he could not improve his fleshy body at all. Even by relying on the Chaotic Origin Dao Scroll created by Emperor Summer and referring to his supreme secret impartation, his Chaotic Origin Refinement Body had reached a limit comparable to peak Cosmos God body cultivators.
And now, his fleshy body had improved.
This was caused by the soul.
'This time, the illusory realm world I created gives off part of a grand perfection feeling.' Xue Ying was astonished. But he understood this was only an approximate feeling.
It contained one of the wondrous effects from the illusory realm structure Xue Ying observed from the 'gray eyes' and 'golden eyes'. That was how he had the inspiration to create this illusory realm world.
'If I reached the final realm in the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm, my soul would have reached a true grand perfection.' Xue Ying had a new realization. At this moment, he was only vaguely feeling grand perfection. It was like looking at flowers in the fog–this feeling of the next level of realm made him understand that many mysterious changes would occur once his soul reach grand perfection.
Under the Burning Heart God Tree.
Xue Ying sat cross-legged here. Even though his heart was undulating like the tide–a newfound desire towards reaching 'grand perfection of the soul'–Xue Ying was able to calm himself down: 'I am already close to the peak in the Dao of Soul across the entire Realm Heart Great Land. And now, I have seen the direction which I have to go. I have even felt the feeling of grand perfection. I believe I'll be able to reach the final realm after spending a little time! I must!'
In the past when he saved the many innocents and allow them to be free of Sacred Master's control, this unshackling of the soul in the people was also the first time Xue Ying found his direction.
And now, he had improved even further; he touched the grand perfection.
Furthermore, examining the structures of those mysterious eyes gave him inspiration to create an unprecedented illusory realm killing technique.
'This world is too beautiful.'
Xue Ying could not help but send down a thought.
The 'Mirage Cosmos' in his body immediately started metamorphosing. It was being altered according to the newly-comprehended illusory realm world structure. Being the creator, he was able to alter the Mirage Cosmos with a thought. And that transformation included an expansion in size! The flow of time within the Mirage Cosmos accelerated too. Many sentient beings began reproducing and cultivating within, of which many amazing cultivators were emerging.
'This illusory realm world is able to give me the urge to enter.' Xue Ying thought.
'This illusory realm world technique shall be called…'
'Illusory Realm World–Resplendent!' Xue Ying thought.
A Resplendent World. It was all-inclusive. Even powerful Cosmos Gods would be immersed within.
Broken Tooth Mountain Range, yet another sky-floating island.
Xue Ying was flying in this sky-floating island alone. A vast and resplendent illusory realm world pervaded his surroundings–it spanned across 150 million kilometers in distance. One could see how amazing this illusory realm technique was for it to maintain such a huge distance despite the suppression of sky-floating island.
Xue Ying was unclear as to how formidable this first killing technique in the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm was.
But he had a vague feeling that it should have reached the third level power.
It even gave off part of a grand perfection feeling! Hence, he could only find out what its actual power was through actual battles.
"Who is that? Why, why are there so many members of the Death Destruction Clan floating around him?" A Death Destruction expert saw from a distance at the group of floating slumbering Death Destruction clansmen around a white-robed young man.
A region spanning 150 million kilometers was huge.
Those sleeping around Xue Ying had been enveloped by the illusory realm. They naturally fell prey to the technique and did not even have the time to discover what had happened.
And this expert was still the first to discover it! He saw the scene from a distance several billions of kilometers away.
"Sou."
This Death Destruction expert who had wings furiously teleported. He charged right at Xue Ying.
Following which, bang! He also fell into a deep sleep and began floating by Xue Ying.
Just like that…
Xue Ying continued unperturbed all the way to the clans-ground!
"Weng!"
The entire clans-ground was only about 500 million kilometers in distance. This illusory realm domain of Xue Ying easily occupied a small section of it. Whenever the Death Destruction clansmen touched the illusory realm, they would fall in large batches–they were completely powerless. When the other Death Destruction experts saw their slumbering peers, they immediately went to awaken their 'Emperor'!
"Who! Who dares to intrude into the clans-ground!" The Emperor was a four-hoofed beast with a pair of huge black wings. Its scarlet eyes stared at Xue Ying. Its enormous body was like a tiny mountain, and its aura felt mighty and grand.
There were more than 10,000 Death Destruction clansmen floating around Xue Ying. Of course he was being merciful. Even those Death Destruction clansmen who had no intelligence whatsoever were merely immersed in his illusory realm.
"The Emperor from the Death Destruction Clan, I came this time without vile intentions." Xue Ying spoke. At the same time, he was delaying for time. His current domain occupied a huge area, and he had already discovered that gray eye floating within the sky-floating island.
This gray eye was situated above a unique plant.
He was currently observing and memorizing the structure within.
"You have no vile intentions? Yet you are controlling so many members of my Death Destruction Clan?" The Emperor roared. He was slightly vigilant for he could not discern if this white-robed young man was illusory or real.
That's right.
In the past, the Death Destruction Clan could still sense that Xue Ying had a level-two Cosmos God aura.
But now as he maintained this terrifying illusory realm constantly, in their senses, they merely perceived Xue Ying as part of the illusory realm. They could not feel his aura at all.
With more than 10,000 members of the Death Destruction Clan floating around him, even the 'Emperor' felt startled. It was not unparalleled after all!
There were the 'eight Great Sages' within the Chaotic Origin Lifeforms.
The Natives even had 'Supremes'. Being a mere 'Emperor' of this sky-floating island, it had incredibly high intelligence. When faced with cries of mercy from weaklings, he did not care about them. But when facing experts, he was filled with restraining fear.
"They aren't dead. It's just that they are deep in sleep. I came this time to collect some materials." Xue Ying said. At the same time, he was also memorizing the structure. After a while, he finally memorized the complete illusory realm structure within the gray eye. Even though he had created the first killing technique, compared to the illusory realm of that mysterious eye, there was still a huge gap.
"Oh right." Xue Ying looked at the 'Emperor' who was on alert, "I still have another important matter."
The Emperor growled: "I've already permitted you to gather one kind of material before leaving. And now you have another matter?"
"I want to fight with you and see the gap between us." Xue Ying chuckled.
"Fight?"
The Emperor who had been enduring finally exploded!
The temperaments of those in the Death Destruction Clan were bad. It was merely wary of this expert. Hence, it was willing to just give away one piece of material it did not care. But now the other party wanted to fight?
"You are seeking death!" That four-hoofed beast who was as big as a tiny mountain roared. It charged right at Xue Ying.
"Hong–"
Xue Ying had deliberately reduced the region of the illusory realm, and now, he abruptly expanded it and engulfed that 'Emperor'.
The scarlet eyes of that Emperor immediately opened wide. It revealed a look of struggle before following that, its wings began softening down. Its eyes became dim. Its huge figure floated in midair. It had fallen asleep.
Xue Ying let out a breath: "I actually succeeded? Otherwise, it would have slapped me to death with a single palm!"
He was prepared for this avatar to die when he chose to test out his strength.
And it seemed–on this sky-floating island at least, he was unparalleled! He could sweep across everyone including that Emperor!

Chapter 1219: With one Technique, I can move unhindered
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
A sky-floating island was swept completely just like that.
This was a 'miracle' that had never happened before in the history of Realm Heart Great Land! Even Emperor Summer and Undying Underworld Emperor could fight with an 'Emperor' without losing out. Killing an 'Emperor' was too lofty a goal! If Undying Underworld Emperor had refined his 'Death Walker', it might be possible. But sadly, he did not refine it.
Of all cultivators from the Realm Heart Great Land, only Xue Ying could achieve this!
This was a 'Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm' killing technique! It directly targeted the soul and willpower.
Soul techniques were incredibly terrifying. It was useless even if one had supreme secret impartation, supreme-graded secret treasures or Death Walkers! Because a soul technique could only be defended using one's soul. If one could resist it, he would only be using part of his heartforce. Otherwise, he would fall prey and be totally immersed in the technique! His life and death would also be in the hands of the enemy.
'The first time I entered Broken Tooth Mountain Range, my illusory realm merely reduced 30% of the 'Emperor's strength at that sky-floating island.' Xue Ying thought, 'And now, I've finally created a great killing technique that has part of the feeling of grand perfection. It can cause an ordinary 'Emperor' to fall into oblivion.'
The target he chose to test his technique was, according to the intelligence provided by the Blood Flame Clan, an ordinary Emperor. This was the most commonly seen standard of 'Emperor' in the sky-floating islands within Broken Tooth Mountain Range.
'My illusory realm killing technique has the best effect in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range.'
Looking at the large number of floating Death Destruction clansmen around him–even that huge Emperor was floating deep asleep–Xue Ying felt high-spirited.
Since the enemies were swept entirely by him, it meant all treasures on this sky-floating island would all belonged to him.
'Not just this sky-floating island, I believe I could do so in many other sky-floating islands too.' Xue Ying looked forward to it. Since he could sweep across this island, it meant it was possible for him to do likewise in many other sky-floating islands!
It was only at the Broken Tooth Mountain Range could he pillage to his heart's content!
In terms of capabilities to resist the illusory realm, cultivators were the most fathomable in this aspect! The Natives were weker by an entire level, and the Death Destruction Clan was even weaker!
Cultivators who reached the final realm would usually reach grand perfection in a Dao path at least. Their souls were powerful, and their willpower had reached an unfathomable stage. Even though Xue Ying's current Illusory Realm World killing technique was formidable and even gave off some feeling of grand perfection, final realm cultivators would easily resist against it by using some of their heartforce!
'It is already amazing. Regardless if they were ordinary final realm experts of unparalleled existences, they would have to suffer from some hardship when faced with my illusory realm killing technique.'
Eternal Night Primogenitor, Ancestor Fan, Moonflower King, and many others.
Their soul and willpower had no differences with ordinary final realm cultivators!
"Mn?"
By relying on the illusory realm, Xue Ying could gather some intelligence from the slumbering 'Emperor', 'The Death Destruction Clan is seriously so foolish? Their intelligence is this crude?'
He was ignorant initially, but now that he began his investigation, he was frightened! This Death Destruction Clan was truly a special breed.
It was fine that most of the members in the Death Destruction Clan had intelligence like wild beasts. But the remaining elites of the Death Destruction Clan had some intelligence! Yet they remained barbarous and only knew how to eat, fight and kill! Standing at the apex were the Kings and the Emperors! They merely understood the outside world slightly, and about the surrounding few Natives world. They also knew about the fame of the 'Five Supremes' and the 'eight Great Sages'.
The Natives had incredibly detailed intelligence on some sky-floating islands.
But the Death Destruction Clan did not even have any detailed information on its surrounding! They only had some approximation of the strength of nearby superpowers. It was also because the 'Emperor' would occasionally go out to hunt for prey.
Thus, his plan of gathering information from the Death Destruction Clan fell through at this moment.
Xue Ying was better off focusing his time gathering the precious materials and treasures from the sky-floating island.
In the following days, he continued exploring the sky-floating islands one by one.
He wanted to explore all sky-floating islands that were recorded in the intelligence by Blood Flame Clan regarding the presence of the mysterious eyes! Xue Ying even went to attempt exploring some of the sky-floating islands which he failed in the past. This time, he relied on his strength!
On those sky-floating islands, when faced with Xue Ying's illusory realm killing technique, only the 'Emperors' could possibly maintain consciousness.
Ordinary 'Emperors' might have comparable strength. But their willpower differed drastically. Some with strong willpower could maintain a strand of consciousness and could easily slap Xue Ying to death with a single palm! All they needed was a strand of consciousness, and given their terrifying fleshy body, they could still unleash 10% to 20% of their strength. That sufficed to wipe out Xue Ying's avatar.
As for those with weaker willpower, they would simply fall into oblivion.
Even as Xue Ying encountered Emperors who could maintain awake, he would usually control a large group of Death Destruction clansmen and use them as negotiation. He was deliberately delaying for more time. Hence, most of the avatars that were killed would still have sufficient time to memorize the illusory realm structure of those mysterious eyes.
In the blink of an eye.
Just half a year later, Xue Ying memorized structures of 506 mysterious eyes successfully amidst the 522 sky-floating islands as detailed on the report. Of which there were 329 gray eyes and 177 golden eyes in total.
Even though he succeeded in memorizing so many structures, in reality, most of them were done by deliberately delaying for time–more than 200 sky-floating islands had Emperors that could still maintain a wisp of consciousness.
'If I brought my Chaotic Origin Weapon Azure River with me, I should be able to procure more treasures.' Xue Ying thought.
Those Emperors that could maintain a wisp of consciousness were only left with 10% to 20% of their original strength!
If Xue Ying brought along his 'Azure River', he could easily survive. As a result, it was possible for him to collect more treasures. Nevertheless, Xue Ying dared not take this risk! If he lost his Chaotic Origin Weapon, it would be quite bad. Furthermore, he did not care much about those treasures. With his illusory realm killing technique, Xue Ying could be considered the number one expert in gathering treasures in the Realm Heart Great Land.
Also, any treasures would no longer have any meaning once it reached a certain amount.
'Cultivating the Realm' was still fundamental!
'I am willing to use those treasures to exchange for an advancement of my Dao of Void into the final realm!' Xue Ying sighed inwardly. Even though he currently stood at an incredibly high level in his soul aspect and could easily intimidate any ultra-powerful experts in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, he still desired to reach the final realm in his 'Dao of Void'! Because only by reaching the final realm could he bring his loved ones and friends away prior to the apocalypse of his hometown Origin World!
'Final realm.'
'I've created the five great killing techniques in my Dao of Void. I also have a supreme secret impartation guiding me. When can I ever reach the final realm?' Xue Ying thought, 'Perhaps I should enter closed-door cultivation and properly meditate?'
Having explored 500 over islands and experienced various opportunities on the Dao of Void, Xue Ying had gained many newfound inspiration. Nonetheless, he had been adventuring and not meditating unlike Swordmaster.
'Mn, let me pay a visit to that good friend Starlight World Master of mine before leaving Broken Tooth Mountain Range.' Xue Ying smiled. In the past when Undying Underworld Emperor attacked the Flying Snow City, Starlight World Master had stood up for him.
"Sou!"
With a teleportation, he traveled through an enormous distance, arriving at one of the many worlds belonging to the Natives, the 'Starlight World'.
In the past, that Starlight World Master had once informed Xue Ying of the location of 'Starlight World'. Furthermore, Xue Ying had ventured into so many sky-floating islands, and had collected various simplistic information from the slumbering 'Emperors'. He could at least map out part of where the 'worlds' were. The Starlight World was also a relatively famous Native World.

Chapter 1220: Starlight World's Dilemma
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
The worlds where the Natives lived in were all hidden in the void. They could not be seen with the naked eyes.
But Xue Ying being a great expert in the Dao of Void, could easily perceive these hidden worlds.
"Sou."
The white-robed young man Xue Ying appeared amidst the void. Looking at the distant sky-floating island that was as big as a sesame, he nodded slightly, 'Using the sky-floating island as a point of reference, the hidden world before me is precisely the Starlight World.'
"Sou."
His body flashed and easily entered the world.
The Starlight World was a vast land.
Unlike the 'sky-floating islands' which contained a huge suppression and pressure on him, the pressure within the Starlight World was incredibly low. He could easily execute the Great Destruction Realm Teleportation Technique with a thought.
'Mn?'
After entering the Starlight World, Xue Ying swept his gaze across and easily saw some collapsed structures in the distance. There was also a huge ditch in the land. The forest not too far away was emptied and filled with huge gouges too.
'There seems to be a recent great war?' Xue Ying did not find it puzzling. It was normal for civilians within a world to battle.
"Weng!"
He released his Void Domain. Without any repulsion from the Starlight World, his senses easily covered the entire place. At the center of this vast land, there gathered an incredibly concentrated Starlight Energy which prevented any forms of scouting. Xue Ying's Void Domain was similarly forced away.
But just outside that starlight region gathered many enormous ships. The protectors that stood on the ships were currently emitting an aura of lightning.
'According to what I know, the Natives are gathered according to their bloodlines.' Xue Ying thought, 'Like the Blood Flame Clan, all of them have an Old Ancestor with a powerful bloodline. Furthermore the entire clan also focuses on researching the 'Blood Flame' bloodline. Similar logic, the most concentrated bloodline in members of the Starlight Clan should be of the Starlight Bloodline and they should be cultivating it. But somehow, those people standing there seem to be emitting an aura of lightning. They are clearly not from the Starlight Clan.'
'What exactly is going on?'
Xue Ying executed his Destruction Realm Teleportation Technique to observe what was happening.
At the core of the Starlight World, there was a chain of structures. They looked beautiful. Furthermore, Xue Ying could see a large group of people gathered there. With a glance, he saw more than 100 million Starlight Clan members congregated at that location. They were also protected by the concentrated starlight around them! But this starlight seemed to suffer from a spatial isolation seal. This seal came from those huge ships that surrounded the region.
'It appears that the Starlight World has been invaded by a powerful enemy?' Xue Ying was not a fool. He could easily discern that currently, another powerful clan of Natives was attacking the Starlight Clan.
'Weird. Previously when I met the Blood Flame Clan, I've heard Blood Flame Ji say how their hometown was being occupied, and they were forced to escape. Why does it seem like the Starlight Clan is suffering from the same attack? It appears that the competition between the Natives is quite intense too.' Xue Ying thought.
Thinking about it, he felt it was normal.
Usually, competition happened even within a clan! It existed everywhere.
"Sou."
Taking a step, Xue Ying arrived just outside the spatial seal. Coincidentally at that juncture, a guard who emitted an aura of lightning was patrolling that place. He saw that white-robed young man appearing and immediately shouted: "Who are you!"
"Who am I?" Xue Ying chuckled. The illusory realm had already enveloped this pitiful little guard! He deliberately teleported to the side of this guard. This guard was very weak. He was only at the Primal Chaos Realm. The willpower of Natives was on average weaker than the cultivators. Hence, Xue Ying could easily scour through his memories.
And only then did he find out that this protector came from the 'Lightning Serpent Clan'. They followed after 'Monarch Lightning Serpent' over to invade the Starlight World. They wanted to wipe out the Starlight Clan and occupy this world!
'Wiping out the clan? So savage?' Xue Ying was slightly startled.
"Who!"
"Who dares to provoke my Lightning Serpent Clan?" An enormous ship not too far away had discovered that things were amiss here.
Xue Ying glanced over at a group of experts who came over. With a thought, 'si la', a black crack formed and Xue Ying followed through the crack to enter the core of the Starlight World.
"Sou sou sou…"
That group of experts rushed over.
"Who is that white-robed young man? Why did he appear and disappear again?"
"Where did he go?"
"It appears that he has executed the Great Destruction Realm Teleportation Technique, and we do not know where he went to!"
These experts were solemn. They immediately turned to that pitiful guard who just woke up. After interrogating him a few rounds, that guard was just doing his job and was not a devil. Hence, Xue Ying did not kill him!
Using the Great Destruction Realm Teleportation Technique, Xue Ying directly teleported into the core territory of the Starlight World. Naturally, this alerted a large group of experts.
"Who!"
"Who entered?"
"How would the five clans dare to enter directly. If they plan on wiping our Starlight Clan, more than half of them would die too." A group of apex experts from the Starlight Clan rushed over. With a glance, they saw a white-robed young man currently standing on the grassland smiling. Xue Ying had a smile as he looked at the commander of that group of experts: "Starlight World Master, I was exploring the Broken Tooth Mountain Range recently and chose to visit you on the way back."
This group of experts were slightly puzzled. They turned to their commander.
"Monarch, do you know him?"
"Who is he?"
"Even I can't see through his aura. Monarch, where did he come from?"
These higher-ups were either Elders or important generals. They were all extremely cautious.
Xue Ying was startled. Ever since he comprehended the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm killing technique, his aura became even more illusory. Others could not determine if he was real or illusory. This became instinctive to him as he explored the Broken Tooth Mountain Range. Following that, Xue Ying slightly revealed part of his true aura.
Starlight World Master saw this and chuckled: "Fellow clansmen, please be rest assured. This is a good friend of mine that comes from the Realm Heart Great Land, the Monarch Flying Snow who I once mentioned before."
"Oh, Monarch Flying Snow?"
"He is the Monarch Flying Snow who saved the princess?"
They were all enlightened.
"Monarch Flying Snow, I know that I once invited you to visit my Starlight World. But who would have guessed that this is the scene that you see when you arrived. I feel ashamed." Starlight World Master bitterly smiled. He continued, "Monarch Flying Snow, come with me to my residence."
"Alright." Xue Ying followed over.
Starlight World, within the Monarch Residence.
The Starlight World Master brought his wife and daughter along with two Elders to hold a welcoming feast for Xue Ying.
"This daughter of mine is too bold and daring. She is also way too curious about the Realm Heart Great Land. That was the reason why she sneaked out of the Starlight World into the Realm Heart Great Land." Starlight World Master looked at his daughter and snorted, "And the first thing she encountered after entering was a great devil. It was fortunate that Monarch Flying Snow with your Heaven's Will Daoist identity killed that devil and saved her life in the past."
Xue Ying was enlightened.
"Many thanks Monarch for this gratitude of saving me." The daughter of Starlight Master obediently thanked.
"It's a minor matter." Xue Ying chuckled.
A plump silver-haired old man said from the side: "It is also fate for Monarch Flying Snow to save the princess at that time."
"My Starlight Clan will return all favors." Starlight World Master sighed, "Monarch Flying Snow, since you came to the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, my Starlight Clan should help you out as well. However, as you can see, my Starlight Clan could not even take care of ourselves properly. Ai, Monarch Flying Snow, it is still better for you to leave. Otherwise, you might be implicated by my Starlight Clan. I'll feel even worse for you then."
"What is happening?" Xue Ying asked in a puzzle, "Why would the Starlight World be attacked? I met the Blood Flame Clan not too long ago and they are suffering from the same thing–their hometown was attacked and occupied. They could only flee."
"It's all because of 'Great Emperor North River'." Starlight Master said, "I know about the Blood Flame Clan. They were attacked because they did not wish to turn slave for Great Emperor North River. Even Brother Blood Flame died in the battle. I only heard about Blood Flame Ji bringing with him the rest of his clan escaping. My Starlight Clan similarly doesn't plan on becoming enslaved by Great Emperor North River."
"Hmph." Another black-faced Elder coldly snorted, "If Great Emperor North River plans on wiping my Starlight Clan out, his subordinates would have to die in large batches too! Occupying one world after another, I would like to see how many subordinates does Great Emperor North River have left in the end."
"It is better to die in a battle then to be enslaved!" The plump silver-haired elder indifferently added.
Starlight Master looked at Xue Ying: "Monarch Flying Snow, you don't have to ask anymore. After finishing this meal, I'll send you some relevant intelligence on the sky-floating islands. It is better for you to hurry off. Don't get implicated by us."

Chapter 1221: They are just Soldiers
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
"Starlight Master should know that I have many avatars. So why are you afraid of getting me implicated?" Xue Ying chuckled.
Starlight Master became stunned when he heard it. He then laughed: "Right, Monarch Flying Snow has many avatars. Since you want to know about it, I shall tell you in detail. You should know that we Natives have two Supremes in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range."
Xue Ying nodded.
Of the five Supremes, three were from the Death Destruction Clan and two from the Natives. According to rumors, these five Supremes were incredibly powerful–they were so strong even Emperor Summer and Undying Underworld Emperor might lose their lives.
"The two Supremes split the vast territory of the Natives within Broken Tooth Mountain Range into two." Starlight Master said, "Our Starlight World belongs to the territory of 'Supreme Vast Ancient'."
"Supreme Vast Ancient has five Great Emperors under him. The five Great Emperors are all incredibly powerful. All of them have approximately the strength of the low-graded Chaotic Origin Lifeforms, the 'eight Great Sages'. Even though their survivability capabilities aren't as heaven-defying as the Chaotic Origin Lifeforms, their strength is just slightly weaker than the Supremes." Starlight Master said, "And the relationship between the Supremes and them is quite subtle."
Xue Ying nodded.
As the five Great Emperors were only slightly weaker than Supreme Vast Ancient, without sufficient gap, the intimidation of the Supreme was limited.
"Supreme Vast Ancient has an incredibly high status. He wholeheartedly pursues after the goal of becoming a true Chaotic Origin Lifeform and he usually can't be bothered about other miscellaneous tasks. Usually, it is the five Great Emperors who manage these regions. Nonetheless, not too long ago, Great Emperor Glorious Earth died!" Starlight Master said, "Hearsay the territories managed by Great Emperor Glorious Earth in the past are used as a stake for a gambling match. It was even hosted by Supreme Vast Ancient personally. In the end, of the four remaining Great Emperors, Great Emperor North River defeated the other three. Hence, the territories under Great Emperor Glorious Earth became his to govern. And our Starlight World and the previous Blood Flame World as well as many other worlds were part of the territory governed by Great Emperor Glorious Earth."
"The territories managed by Great Emperor Glorious Earth are given plenty of freedom that we enjoyed very much."
"But Great Emperor North River is very different. He is tyrannical and ruthless. He plans to to enslave us so as to force us to battle for him." Starlight Master sneered coldly, "Great Emperor North River is also the strongest of the four remaining emperors. And Supreme Vast Ancient doesn't care about this. Hence, the only thing we can do is fight back. If they plan on wiping our Starlight Clan, we would definitely fight back and ensure we kill as many as we could."
"But honestly speaking, given the personality of Great Emperor North River, he would not care about the lives of his subordinates." Starlight Master shook his head lightly.
The two elders by the side, his wife and daughter became silent.
The pressure from Great Emperor North River was felt by the entire Starlight Clan. Everyone understood that it was hard to make Great Emperor North River renounce his plans to conquer.
"I understand." Xue Ying nodded softly.
In his hometown Origin World, Sacred Master sought to control the souls of the sentient beings. And the Destruction Devil 'Emperor Jun' sought to destroy the entire world so that he could get bestowed by the Supreme Law.
For the sake of their Dao path, many experts did not care about others even if they were from the same race!
From the perspective of the 'Natives', the Realm Heart Great Land was of a race–the Cultivators! The cultivators would even kill one another. For instance, Undying Underworld Emperor planned on sacrificing the lives from 15 nations.
"Because of his personal goals, he plans on bringing calamity and chaos to the many sentient beings? Yet another devil!" Xue Ying softly muttered. His eyes were filled with frost.
Starlight Master was startled when he heard that.
And the eyes of that princess brightened.
They knew of Xue Ying's temper. For the sake of intimidating all devils, he chose to confront them all in the Realm Heart Great Land.
"Younger Brother Flying Snow!" Starlight Master immediately grabbed the hands of Xue YIng, "You better not mess around."
"Rest assured. I'll not mess around. Whatever I do, I'll do it according to my strength." Xue Ying chuckled.
"Yes, do it according to your strength." Starlight Master shook his head, "But fighting back against the Great Emperor North River is simply out of our means. We can only delay the battles. Many regions governed by Great Emperor Glorious Earth in the past were resisting back! I believe there would be some changes when the resistance reaches a certain extent."
They were just halfway through this welcoming reception when…
"Hong!" An intense fluctuation was felt.
"They attacked again?" Starlight Master's expression changed, "Younger Brother Flying Snow, you should stay here."
"Let us go!"
Starlight Master brought with him the two elders at high speed. In a flash, they disappeared.
Xue Ying stood up in bewilderment and walked outside.
The Starlight Clan's capital was not too big. Because their population was much smaller than the cultivators. Currently, just outside a city wall, many huge ships were stopped in midair. A group of experts from other clans stood above the ships looking down at the capital of the Starlight Clan.
"Starlight, who is that white-robed young man that came previously?" On a huge ship, an ugly male whose skin was scarlet in color shouted, "I felt that Great Destruction Realm Teleportation Technique was used to enter your capital. There are actually outsiders who dare to enter despite the blockade of your Starlight Clan?"
"Fiery Pupa, do you think your Fiery Pupa Clan is qualified to care about who enters and leaves my Starlight Clan?" Starlight Master shouted furiously. A total of nine elders and other apex experts were standing behind him.
"Hmph hmph, the Great Emperor has already promised to give this world to my Fiery Pupa Clan when we succeeded in taking it down. Currently, we have already occupied 99% of the world. I am naturally qualified to know." This ugly male waved his hand, "Since you are so foolish, hmph hmph, everyone, attack! Let's destroy the Starlight City."
"Yes."
At that moment, a total of 15 figures rushed out.
They were either figures with red skin or figures filled with lightning, or figures with snake tails, or giants with eight arms, or humans with three eyes.
The experts from five great clans once again worked together to lay siege to the city.
"Go!"
"They are here again."
"Kill them!"
With the nine elders as the leaders, they led the group of experts in Starlight World out of the capital. Many combat formations were formed as they began entangling with the enemies.
"Hong!""Hong!""Hong!"…
The world shook.
The force from the battles boomed. Currently, the disturbances from this skirmish had far surpass that of a battle between unparalleled existences.
Starlight Master watched coldly. He dared not intervene since the five great commanders of the five clans had not acted yet! Fortunately, they were at his hometown. Hence, by relying on the energy of the clan, his strength was slightly stronger than the other five commanders.
"Move out!" A lady with snake tail ordered too.
At that moment, another team of enemies came, allowing the experts from the five clans to gain the upper hand.
"Hong!"
Suddenly, the light in the entire Starlight Capital converged onto the bodies of the nine elders and all experts.
"They are truly mad." Starlight Master was angrily when he saw that. Every time the five clans attacked their city, they would retreat only after killing some experts! He knew that as subordinates of Great Emperor North River, these experts were used to the ideology of 'strong feasting on the weak'. Perhaps such battles would see some losses of experts, but at the same time, they would be weeding out the weak.
And now, the Starlight World originally had 18 elders, yet during this process, they were left with half.
"Mother."
That princess watched with her mother nervously from afar.
Not just them, many other clansmen of the Starlight Clan were also watching nervously. Those who were currently battling were all existences standing at the apex of the entire Starlight Clan! And they who were ordinary clansmen were far too weak. The moment the elders and commanders failed to resist the enemies back, these weak clansmen would be wiped out easily.
"Is there anyone who can come save us?"
"When will such days end?" These ordinary clansmen were all feeling terrified and uneasy. They could only wait for the ruling of their fate.
"Mn?"
Xue Ying who was watching by the side had a change in expression, "Not good!"
One of the Starlight Clan elders was heavily injured. It seemed he could no longer hold on any further. But Starlight Master seemed to stand there without acting.
"He is worried of the commanders from the five clans, and doesn't wish for the final battle to begin?" Xue Ying shook his head softly. He owed Starlight Master a favor for the other party stood up for him during a critical moment in the past.
"Hu."
With a thought, Xue Ying sent a huge illusory realm down on the experts that were currently fighting.
"Bang, bang, bang…"
The eyes of the experts suddenly dimmed. They stopped fighting and softened down onto the ground.
"What is happening?" Starlight Master, his wife, his daughter, and many other clansmen of the Starlight Clan were stunned!
The experts from the five clan who stood on the distant ships were similarly stunned.
"Hu.""Hu."
With a thought, Xue Ying easily teleported the experts who had fallen prey to the illusory realm into the capital. Of which the nine elders and many experts from the Starlight Clan soon awakened, yet the experts from the five clans remained immersed in the illusory realm.
"Starlight Master, temporarily lock these experts from the five clans." Xue Ying said, "There is no need to be ruthless against them. They are merely fighting because of orders. They are just soldiers."
At this moment.
Many clansmen from the Starlight Clan and the experts from the five clans who stood on the ships far away looked with disbelief at this white-robed young man.
"Younger Brother Flying Snow is benevolent. I'll not be ruthless either." The eyes of Starlight Master brightened. He felt his entire body turning hot. His heart that had been filled with despair, suddenly revitalized. His blood was coursing through his body, and his voice became resplendent, "Lock all of them up! Listen to my Younger Brother Flying Snow, and not injure them. They are just soldiers."

"Yes, Monarch."
Of the nine elders that just awakened, a short and plump elder took out a jade bottle currently emitting starlight. The moment he uncorked it, a devouring force came which engulfed those sleeping experts from the five clans. Everyone of them was sucked into the bottle. And then this plump and short elder happily corked the bottle back. He reported, "Monarch, a total of 30 experts from the five clans have been imprisoned at this moment. None of them are harmed."
The way this plump and short elder spoke was exceptionally loud. It spread echoed across the entire Starlight Capital. Even the experts from the five clans standing on those huge ships outside the capital could hear it clearly.
Those experts from the five clans looked with panic and terror at the white-robed young man who was currently escorted by many–even Starlight Master treated him with incredible enthusiasm.
"How could this be?"
"The top experts selected by our five clans have actually fallen to a technique? It seems to be some kind of soul technique?"
They could not see with their naked eyes how the enemy acted.
And the next moment, 30 great experts from their sides softened down onto the ground deep asleep. This was unquestionably a soul technique. This technique was so unfathomable that the experts from the five clans tremble from it! Because those that were dispatched were experts secondary to the five commanders. Many guards standing on the ships were much weaker.
They knew that if this large-scale soul technique was casted on them, they would easily be swept!
Did they not see how even the group of experts from Starlight World fell down completely as well? Clearly, numbers were not of a concern before this technique.
"What should we do?"
"Elder Fu Chen has fallen prey to the technique without any means of retaliating. Which of us can actually resist then?"
"Such technique is too terrifying."
The experts from the five clans were frightened.
Even the five commanders were similarly feeling uneasy. They looked at one another on each of their ships and were rapidly discussing about what they should do.
"Elder Brothers, Elder Fu Chen and the others have fallen to the technique without any means of retaliating. The five of us have stepped into the Emperor rank! Compared to them, our souls have undergone a qualitative transformation. Thus, I believe that we will not fall prey to the technique that easily." Of the five commanders, that snake-tailed girl transmitted, "In many of the worlds, including those of the Death Destruction Clan, I haven't heard of anyone who could cause an Emperor to fall into a deep sleep with a single technique."
"Right. It is impossible for him to inflict the same outcome on us."
"We have all stepped into the Emperor rank."
They were all discussing about it.
Emperor.
It was an incredibly high rank in both the Death Destruction Clan and the Natives. The so-called Supremes were only Emperors that reached a grand perfection realm.
Like 'His Majesty Blood Flame Ji' whom Xue Ying met in the past had not reached the Emperor rank yet. Hence, he could not fight against the 'Grand Elder' on the sky-floating island.
Reaching the 'Emperor rank', only then could one be qualified to be known as a commander of a clan.
"But for so many experts to fall prey to the technique, this white-robed young man's soul technique is extremely frightening. Even though we could resist against it, our strength would most likely fall by 30% to 40%." The snake-tailed girl continued speaking, "In the Starlight World, the Starlight Master can borrow the strength of his clan, boosting his power significantly. He could fight against the five of us just by himself. The moment our strength suffers from a decrease, we might not be the opponents of Starlight Master any longer."
"Right now, we no longer have sufficient superiority."
"Retreat."
"Let us retreat first and report to the Emperor."
The experts from the five clans felt slightly uneasy. They did not have the fighting spirit to continue.
Very soon.
"Sou sou sou sou sou…"
The ships began penetrating through the void and left this place.
"Starlight Master." A dimmed figure remained in midair. It was also the incarnation of that snake-tailed girl. She spoke, "The few of us have come on the orders of Great Emperor North River. You best return our people, that–"
"You don't have to say anymore."
Starlight Master simply cut her off. He shouted, "Since they have been captured alive by us, we will naturally not release them! During this period, you guys have invaded into our Starlight World, killing so many of our clansmen. It is considered benevolent for us not to enslave or kill them all! I wish for you guys to obediently retreat. If you attack us again, don't blame us for being merciless."
The snake-tailed girl stared at Starlight Master.
She understood that previously when the five clans attacked the Starlight World, they were too ruthless. Everything had been done according to the orders of Great Emperor North River–to wipe out the Starlight Clan! Naturally, they did not show any mercy when fighting. Hence, it would be almost impossible now that they wished for the enemies to return the captives.
"I wonder what are the conditions you require in order for them to be released." The snake-tailed girl said.
"As long as Great Emperor North River personally sends an imperial edict that states clearly for the Starlight Clan to remain independent, and for him not to attack my Starlight World from thus." Starlight Master said. As long as it was an imperial edict personally written by Great Emperor North River, he would not dare to violate it against his reputation.
"This request of yours is quite high." The snake-tailed girl muttered.
With the temper of Great Emperor North River, how would he ever write such an imperial edit?
"The conditions are given. It's for you all to choose!" Starlight Master roared, "Right now, aren't you leaving the Starlight World?"
Saying that, Starlight Master waved his hand.
"Hu."
The distant void rippled, causing the incarnation of that snake-tailed girl to dissipate. She was also being silent in the face of these.
Given the strength of Starlight Master, he could clearly sense that the enemies had left the Starlight World.
"The experts from the five clans have left." Starlight Master announced, "The enemies have retreated."
"We have won!"
"Retreated! They have all retreated!"
"Victory is ours!"
Many clansmen from the Starlight Clan were excitedly cheering. Even though they knew it was only a temporary relief from the danger, it was still something they looked forward to a very long time ago.
And this time, they even captured enemies as hostages! Those were practically half the top experts in the five clans. With this batch of slaves, the five clans would restrain themselves further! 'Great Emperor North River' might not care about the lives of his subordinates, but the five commanders under Great Emperor North River were considered quite highly ranked. They had many friends, and the other subordinates of Great Emperor North River would have to show some respect to them. It was impossible for them to continue attacking their world amidst the possibility of getting the captives killed.
Unless Great Emperor North River gave an order!
"We have captured some enemies, and we still have Younger Brother Flying Snow around." Starlight Master looked at Xue Ying excitedly, "Younger Brother Flying Snow, I would not have thought that just lending you a helping hand in the past would lead you here to save my entire clan."
Xue Ying chuckled: "To me, it is similarly as simple as lifting my hands."
When Starlight Master heard that, he laughed: "Alright. I shall not talk about this anymore. I'll remember this huge favor of yours. Oh, that's right, previously when you executed your technique, even the experts from my Starlight Clan fall prey to it. Does it mean you could not distinguish between enemies and allies with your technique?"
"No no, why can't it do so?" Xue Ying shook his head with a smile, "The techniques executed by us cultivators are quite exquisite. It is impossible for me to commit such a mistake. Previously, the reason why I executed my technique on everyone is because I was worried that the experts from your clan might kill the experts from the five clans, and that'll be a pity."
"Haha, that's true. During a life and death battle, this soul technique of yours came so silently. The experts from my Starlight Clan might not even have the time to stop." Starlight Master was enlightened, "That's good. We have captured all of them, and this is a positive matter to my Starlight Clan. At least it prevents the enemies from easily waging another war."
"Monarch." A silver-haired elder said softly from the side, "With such a huge victory at hand, and for Monarch Flying Snow to save our entire clan, I believe it is due time for us to celebrate!"
"Yes, we should. Let us celebrate this occasion!" Starlight Master laughed. He simply pulled along Xue Ying, "Younger Brother Flying Snow, from now on, you are the benefactor of my entire Starlight Clan."
And in the distant.
The Starlight Clan princess who stood together with her mother looked at Xue Ying from afar. Her eyes were very bright. She mumbled: "Flying Snow… is this fate?"
At another place.
The experts from the five clans boarded the ships and traveled through the void. Soon, they arrived at the 'North River World'.
"We have not only fail to lay siege to the world. So many of our experts have been captured. Right now, we are out of ideas and can only report to the Emperor about it." The five commanders were slightly anxious. They were worried about the experts of their clans that had befallen into the hands of the enemies.

Chapter 1223: 36 God Generals
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
The five commanders arrived before the palace door of a towering palace in the North River World.
"Brother Sky Dust." One of the five commanders, an eight-armed giant said, "Would you please convey the message that we want to meet the Emperor?"
"Oh?"
The one standing guard before the palace door was a silver-haired male. He had similarly stepped into the Emperor rank. Otherwise, he would not be qualified to guard the entire North River God Palace alone. This silver-haired male chuckled, "Weren't your five clans attacking the Starlight World? Being commanders, you guys should be leading your troops, so why have you come here?"
"Don't talk about it anymore. A mysterious expert popped out in that Starlight World, causing us to suffer from huge losses." The eight-armed giant said, "Brother Sky Dust, it is better for you to pass on the message."
"Alright, I'll do it right at this instance." An incarnation condensed out from the silver-haired male, which then rushed into the god palace.
Before a violet parterre.
There was a green-robed man standing with his hands folded. He seemed to be silently observing these flowers. One could see serenity in his deep eyes. Even as he stood there, others could feel a frighteningly desolate killing aura coming from him!
The reputation of 'Great Emperor North River' was carved out of bones.
When he fought, sword rays would fill the world like the Milky Way, incredibly bright and resplendent. He killed his way until everyone was forced to lower their heads in submission. Even in the wager between the four Great Emperors under Supreme Vast Ancient, Great Emperor North River had consecutively defeated the other three Emperors! As a result, he became a terrifying existence just second only to Supreme Vast Ancient in this region governed by Supreme Vast Ancient. With an order, he was able to force countless worlds into submission for him.
"Sou."
A stream of light came in from afar. It was the incarnation of that silver-haired male. He respectfully greeted: "Emperor."
"What's the matter?" Great Emperor North River remained watching the flowers sentimentally. He spoke with an indifferent tone.
"Fiery Pupa and the other four commanders have asked to meet you." The silver-haired male said.
"Oh? Let them in." Great Emperor North River ordered.
"Yes."
The incarnation of that silver-haired male left after that.
Just a few breaths of time later.
The five commanders arrived. They bowed–all of them were trembling in fear and trepidation: "Greetings Emperor."
Only then did Great Emperor North River turn. He looked at the five of them calmly: "Aren't the five of you participating in a campaign? Have you came because of some unforeseen circumstances?"
"Yes." The ugly scarlet-skinned male replied respectfully, "Our five clans have attacked the Starlight World according to the plan. It progressed incredibly smoothly when all of a sudden, a white-robed young man called Monarch Flying Snow appeared. He specializes in the terrifying soul technique. With just a thought, he has forced a total of 30 apex experts dispatched by our clans into sleep. Currently, this large batch of experts from our five clans have fallen into captive. When facing his soul technique, quantity is useless! The five of us might be confident of resisting his soul technique, but our strength will be significantly diminished. At the same time, we would suffer from the joint attack from Starlight Master and several combat formations. It is certain that we would be on the disadvantaged end. And given that our subordinates are in danger of dying, we chose to retreat temporarily."
"There are no Emperors within the 30 experts captured, am I right?" Great Emperor North River stated.
"Yes, there are no Emperors." The scarlet-skinned ugly male replied.
"Wind Smoke." Great Emperor North River said.
At that moment, an unseen fog condensed into an enchanting silver-armored girl by his side. This silver-armored enchantress bowed respectfully: "Emperor."
"Have you heard of this name, Monarch Flying Snow?" Great Emperor North River asked.
The silver-armored enchantress was slightly surprised. She soon composed herself and answered: "We have never heard of this expert in our Broken Tooth Mountain Range, but there is a very famous Monarch Flying Snow in the Realm Heart Great Land! He was once termed as the 'Heaven's Will Daoist'. Just by himself, he is able to intimidate all devils across the Realm Heart Great Land. He even disrupted the affairs of that Undying Underworld Emperor, causing him to rage and unravel the identity of the Heaven's Will Daoist. Undying Underworld Emperor even swept across a large swathe of region with his strength as a result. In the end, that Great Paragon Flying Snow relied on the arrays of his city before repelling Undying Underworld Emperor successfully."
"Judging from this, Great Paragon Flying Snow should be at the level-two Cosmos God realm. Hearsay it was his Chaotic Origin Weapon that gave him his strength. As for his personal strength, it isn't worth mentioning." The silver-haired enchantress explained.
Being one of the nine great God Generals that followed along Great Emperor North River at all times, she was responsible for collecting intelligence from all sources.
Actually.
The spreading of news happened quite quickly be it in the Realm Heart Great Land or across the Natives!
Instead, it was incredibly slow for news to spread within the 'Death Destruction Clan'. Almost 99% of their members were like wild beasts. Even those with higher intelligence would spread the news via 'voice transmissions'. Like the 'Emperors' of sky-floating islands, most of them rarely leave their sky-floating islands! Hence, they rarely interacted with the outer world.
Even though Xue Ying had swept across quite a few sky-floating islands and all Death Destruction clansmen on it with his Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm killing move, his infamy did not spread.
Instead, it was after giving a small demonstration of his skills before the Natives! And the strongest expert he dealt with was merely a 'King', yet the news had reached Great Emperor North River!
"Starlight Master once went to help him?" Great Emperor North River softly nodded, "It seems that should be Monarch Flying Snow."
"This is the appearance of Monarch Flying Snow." The silver-armored enchantress waved her hands, causing the appearance of the young man to appear.
"That's him."
"Right, that's him."
The eyes of the five commanders brightened.
Great Emperor North River softly nodded: "He is quite brave to dare become enemies with me without disguising his appearances! Since your five clans are insufficient, it is fine to dispatch more experts to help the few of you!"
"Monarch, our five clans have 30 peak experts being captured alive. If we were to attack, the Starlight Clan might just…" One of the five commanders, a three-eyed man hurriedly added.
"That's enough." Great Emperor North River coldly uttered. His gaze turned cold, and it felt like a cold sword had pierced its way over.
The three-eyed man cowered down and no longer dared to speak.
They had followed after Great Emperor North River for an incredibly long period, and knew of the temper of Great Emperor North River.
"There must not be any accidents in the campaign." Great Emperor North River coldly declared, "No matter who it is, none can obstruct me."
He was the newest Great Emperor.
Yet now, he was the strongest! Why? That's because he was ruthless. He was ruthless to himself, and he was ruthless to his subordinates!
After all, not just him or the highly-regarded 'Supremes', everyone was in reality still at the Emperor rank! The Supremes had merely reached grand perfection in the Emperor rank. If a large group of powerful 'Emperors' worked together, they could fight against a Supreme! The gap in their strength was not too great. Hence, with sufficient quantity, it was possible to mitigate this gap.
Like Great Emperor North River for instance. The territory he originally governed had been completely subdued by him! The experts from those territories had to listen to his orders. They even formed the '36 God Generals'.
With the 36 God Generals, they were able to fight against a Supreme!
Only he, Great Emperor North River, was able to do this.
The other Great Emperors were too lacking in the way they governed their territories. Most of the Native Worlds would only follow their orders on the surface, yet in reality, they were still living by themselves! Hence, the other three Great Emperors under 'Supreme Vast Ancient' could never commandeer their experts as good as how Great Emperor North River did his.
"By relying on the collective effort of sufficient experts, that was how I could gather more resources and finally rank first among the four Emperors!"
"And only by scheming during the wager battle did I succeed in snatching the territories left by the death of Great Emperor Glorious Earth."
"If I could completely occupy these territories, my power would greatly increase even further."
Great Emperor North River thought.
He was not afraid of Supreme Vast Ancient! Even if they fought one on one, he would merely be on the disadvantaged end. Furthermore, he even had 36 loyal God Generals.
It was definitely be much easier for him to conquer a large region if he took it slow. But Great Emperor North River was not that patient! Currently, he was confident of his strength. His 36 God Generals were also sufficiently powerful and could force their way through by conquering the regions. The reason why he 'delayed' until now was because he planned on relying on those invasions to temper more experts.
Only during life and death battles could experts have a higher chance of awakening their bloodlines.
"Monarch Flying Snow?" Great Emperor North River did not place this man in his eyes.
None could obstruct his path.
He was destined to be the third Supreme of the Natives!
"Things are becoming troublesome." The five commanders exchanged glances. They felt slightly helpless as they could feel how intense the willpower of Great Emperor North River was this time. Nobody could stop him from what he wanted!
"It is useless even if I send more weaklings against a soul technique." Great Emperor North River apathetically commented, "Gluttonous Cloud, Wind Smoke, both you brother and sister, go find 'God General Skeletal Dragon' along. You three God Generals will help the five commanders to collect the Starlight World! There is no need to grind the Starlight World down."
When the five commanders heard of the two God Generals–Gluttonous Cloud and Wind Smoke, they were still calm.
But hearing the name 'God General Skeletal Dragon' made them shudder unknowingly.
"God General Skeletal Dragon?"
"The Emperor clearly plans on acquiring a clean victory!" The five commanders were shocked.

Chapter 1224: Who is Monarch Flying Snow?
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
God General Wind Smoke was a silver-armored enchantress while God General Gluttonous Cloud was a black-armored muscular man. Both of them were indeed blood-related siblings, and were both respectively the 15th God General and 29th God General within the 36 God Generals respectively.
One had to know.
The 36 God Generals were chosen from many Emperors in the worlds occupied by Great Emperor North River! All of them were incredibly amazing. The five commanders of the clans were mere initial Emperors and were not qualified to be chosen as one of the 36 God Generals.
"God General Hai Long?" God General Gluttonous Cloud and God General Wind Smoke turned to each other. They were not too familiar with God General Hai Long.
God General Hai Long.
He was also the '2nd God General' in the 36 God Generals. With the identity of God General Hai Long, it was impossible for him to become a personal guard of Great Emperor North River. Even though there were nine God Generals standing guard by the side of Great Emperor North River all-year round, most of them were ranked slightly inferior. As for those ranked in the top five, Great Emperor North River had to conduct some transactions or rely on other ways before getting their willingness to follow him. Most of the time, these five God Generals were free. Only during battles would these God Generals act.
"Go, go and meet God General Hai Long. Let him lead the few of you into the Starlight World." Great Emperor North River ordered.
He could not allow for any accidents to happen!
This campaign had to be conducted clean and efficiently!
"Yes!"
God General Wind Smoke, God General Gluttonous Cloud, and the five commanders acknowledged.
God General Wind Smoke, God General Gluttonous Cloud, and the five commanders boarded a huge ship and left the North River World. They traveled through the void and soon arrived at the Skeletal World.
"Hu."
Even though the Skeletal World was also governed by Great Emperor North River! But because God General Skeletal Dragon was sufficiently powerful, he still had his freedom. Only 'God General Skeletal Dragon' would be occasionally dispatched! After all, it was still quite difficult given the identity of Great Emperor North River to dispatch God General Skeletal Dragon.
In a towering palace built from white bones.
'God General Skeletal Dragon' was a handsome young man. He currently wore armor made of bones and was eating all sorts of bones placed before him. 'Crunch, crunch, crunch', he easily chewed those bones before consuming them.
Surrounding him, there were many protectors of the Skeletal Clan standing by.
When God General Gluttonous Cloud and the group of people arrived to visit him.
God General Skeletal Dragon had just finished the enormous pot of bones placed before him. He immediately stood up and said: "I've just finished my meal. Go, let us pay that Starlight World a visit."
The huge ship left the Skeletal World.
"Sister Wind Smoke, every time I see you again, I find that you are becoming more and more beautiful." God General Skeletal Dragon chuckled, "Sister Wind Smoke, how about becoming my wife? My Skeletal Clan is currently missing a mistress!"
"Every single time I meet Second Brother, Second Brother will tease me." God General Wind Smoke helplessly replied.
"It's a pity that I liked Sister Wind Smoke yet Sister Wind Smoke doesn't regard me highly enough." God General Skeletal Dragon sighed. He turned to God General Gluttonous Cloud by the side, "Gluttonous Cloud, help me talk to your sister."
"It is impossible for me to persuade her." God General Gluttonous Cloud muttered, "Second Brother should know that my sister could control me but not the other way around."
"Truly useless!" God General Skeletal Dragon snorted, "I feel ashamed of you."
God General Wind Smoke and God General Gluttonous Cloud were both helpless.
They were actually not that close to God General Skeletal Dragon. It's just that 'God General Skeletal Dragon' had a weird habit. Whenever he met a female God General, he would ask her to be his wife! But any woman who could become a God General was someone extraordinary. Hence, it was near impossible to move her heart.
They were chatting on the ship happily, and soon, they arrived at the Starlight World, heading in the direction of the Starlight Capital.
Within Starlight Capital.
The members of the Starlight Clan were currently celebrating. They knew it was only a short respite since the powerful 'Great Emperor North River' was still present! But they had felt repressed for far too long. They were in despair, panicking about whether they could survive. It was rare for them to obtain such a huge victory and to even capture such a huge batch of prisoners! Hence, they were currently celebrating with all they could! Most of the apex experts from the Starlight Clan and 'Starlight Master' were even crowding around Xue Ying.
They were enjoying the wine and the company they had with one another.
"They won't dare to attack us again that easily. Unless they do not care about the lives of those prisoners."
"Hmph hmph, if they want us to die, those captives must die first."
"With the help provided by Monarch Flying Snow, it is impossible for them to win so easily."
They were all loudly speaking.
Xue Ying watched from the side. He sighed inwardly in his heart. When he first arrived, these elders and generals were all saying about how 'if the enemies planned on wiping them, more than half the enemies would have to die'! They were all in a life and death struggle without any thoughts of securing a victory! And now, even though it was slightly better–they saw some hope, their hearts were still filled with unease.
They had no choice. The infamy of Great Emperor North River had long rooted itself in the hearts of every Natives.
'Starlight Master once helped me. This time, I plan on helping him back all the way to the end too!' Starlight Master thought.
To him.
He was indeed unafraid of the Death Destruction Clan and the Natives. Because even the most terrifying clan could not enter the Realm Heart Great Land! They were limited by the law left by 'Yuan'. And most of the time, only initial Emperors could enter the Realm Heart Great Land. At this level, they would simply fall to his Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm killing technique in one single move!
"Not good." The expression of Starlight Master abruptly changed.
"Why?" The crowd that was currently celebrating in the hall all turned to Starlight Master. Xue Ying looked over too.
Starlight Master became ashen grey. Being the master of this Starlight World, he discovered the presence of the enemies when 'God General Skeletal Dragon' and the rest entered the Starlight World on their ship.
"Hu."
Starlight Master waved his hand, causing a scene to appear in midair.
It was that huge ship.
The huge ship had a total of eight figures. Standing at the head of the ship was a young man in bone armor and two other people. They were none other than God General Skeletal Dragon, God General Wind Smoke, and God General Gluttonous Cloud. Behind the three of them stood the other five commanders.
There were only eight of them–they did not bring any subordinates! Because they were clear those who were weaker would be swept away easily before the soul technique.
"This is–"
The expressions on Starlight Master, the nine Elders and the group of apex experts became ugly. Both the wife and daughter of Starlight Master also paled.
"God General Wind Smoke, God General Gluttonous Cloud, and… God General Skeletal Dragon! God General Skeletal Dragon actually came this time! They have truly regarded my Starlight World highly." Starlight Master's body was shaking. If they were outside, without the energy from the clan augmenting him, God General Skeletal Dragon could easily defeat him! And even with the strengthening from the clan energy, he could barely compete with the weakest God General Wind Smoke.
How could they fight then?
"Prepare to face the enemy!" Starlight Master gritted his teeth and shouted. No matter what, they had to resist.
"He is ruthless. Great Emperor North River is incredibly ruthless!"
"It seems he completely disregards the lives of those captives."
"For him to send God General Skeletal Dragon over and deal with our Starlight World."
The nine elders and the group of people were all mad.
"Sou sou sou…"
They all rapidly traveled to the entrance of the city. Standing in midair, they were all currently illuminated by the starlight. Xue Ying also stood by the side of Starlight Master watching along with everyone. He had once obtained the intelligence provided by the Blood Flame Clan and knew of the 36 God Generals under the famous Great Emperor North River! Xue Ying was quite curious about them.
Previously, the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm killing technique which he executed was dealt against the Emperors from the Death Destruction Clans. He wondered if there would be any difference in using it against the Natives! Though it seemed from first impression that the Natives, even though their intelligence might be higher than those from the Death Destruction Clan, their spirituality cultivation was still far lacking as compared to the cultivators. They merely relied on their bloodline to resist against the soul technique.
"They are here."
"It's God General Skeletal Dragon."
"Get ready to fight with your life! In the worst case scenario, we would just do it according to the final plan–which is to escape." Starlight Master and the elders transmitted back and forth silently. Their eyes were filled with signs of madness.
This was their home! They would absolutely not give it up easily. They had to fight until the very last moment!
"Hu–"
That huge ship traveled through the void and appeared just outside Starlight Capital. As it stopped there, an unseen pressure covered the entirety of the Starlight Clan, causing them to feel uneasy. Even though they knew 'Great Emperor North River' was a terrifying existence, they would not have thought that just after securing a victory, three out of the legendary 36 God Generals would come.
"Oh, the Starlight Clan is quite daring!" Standing at the head of the ship, that young man in bone armor swept his gaze across before casually continuing, "Who is Monarch Flying Snow?"
Xue Ying stood forward and said with a smile: "I am Monarch Flying Snow!"

Chapter 1225: Dealing against Emperors
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
God General Skeletal Dragon examined Xue Ying. The edge of his lips curled up in ridicule: "You are a cultivator from the Realm Heart Great Land. Instead of focusing on your cultivation, you come to the Broken Tooth Mountain Range to intervene in the affairs of us Natives. You are quite daring. Cultivators from the Realm Heart Great Land have always been careful whenever they entered the mountain range. Only you dared to be so unbridled! Even though we God Generals could not break the membrane and enter the Realm Heart Great Land, we can still easily dispatch initial Emperors into the Realm Heart Great Land!"
"Oh, then I shall wait and see." Xue Ying remained smiling calmly.
God General Skeletal Dragon frowned when he saw that. He sneered: "Why, do you think you are powerful just because you relied on the arrays of your Flying Snow City?"
Xue Ying did not elaborate.
Initial Emperors?
They were merely at the standard of the Grand Elder on the first sky-floating island he ventured! Judging from his own experience, even though the Natives were more intelligent than the Death Destruction Clan as a whole, there was still a gap between their 'spirituality cultivation' compared to the cultivators. Xue Ying was not afraid of initial Emperors at all.
"You have many avatars, and just by relying on your Flying Snow City made you so arrogant. Why don't you think twice about how weak you are." God General Skeletal Dragon could not be bothered to say more. The elites of the Natives truly belittled cultivators from the Realm Heart Great Land.
They had the bloodline of Chaotic Origin Lifeforms, ensuring that they were different from others innately–they were very powerful at birth.
God General Skeletal Dragon's gaze landed on Starlight Master and the group of elders: "Starlight, don't complain that this Emperor hasn't given you a chance to live. Right now, I am giving you two choices."
Starlight Master and the group of experts from Starlight Clan felt their mind wavering.
Two choices?
It seemed Great Emperor North River still cared about the lives of those captives.
"The first choice is if you plan on resisting still, I'll wipe out your Starlight Clan completely. Hmph hmph, there are too many bloodlines. It is due time for a weak little bloodline like the Starlight Bloodline to be wiped out from the world so that the more powerful one can continue existing." God General Skeletal Dragon indifferently mentioned, "I am for sure happy if you choose this."
The higher-ups of the Starlight Clan felt grievous and indignant, yet they could only endure.
Xue Ying sighed inwardly by the side.
"The second choice is for you to pledge your loyalty to the Emperor! Furthermore, Starlight Master and the nine elders have to proceed to the North River World and listen to the orders of the Emperor. At the same time, you must hand over the captives. The Emperor can guarantee the continued survival of your Starlight Clan in this world. He will also only dispatch 10 experts from your Starlight World at the most in the future." God General Skeletal Dragon said.
"Impossible."
"You are dreaming!"
"Then let us battle. We are prepared. If we can't survive, all 30 captives will be killed."
The Starlight Clan roared out angrily at this moment.
This was something they could not accept! Why did they cultivate? To be free! To remain unfettered! Who was willing to be enslaved by Great Emperor North River? If they agreed, then the Starlight Clan would remain under the control of Great Emperor North River for eternity.
"Foolish. You are all seeking death. Does your Starlight Clan plan on seeking extinction?" The five commanders were all anxious because 30 peak experts from their clans were captured, and they were not willing to see everyone die because of the obstinate attitude of the other party. But they did not dare disobey against Great Emperor North River. Hence, they prayed for the Starlight clan to give in.
"The moment you resist, your clan will definitely be destroyed!"
"Starlight Master, are you afraid of death? Just by sacrificing ten of your experts, your entire clan can remain free!"
The commanders of the five clans shouted out directly.
"What a joke. Clan extinction? Just with you all?" Starlight Master angrily retorted.
"If we plan on escaping, we would have left the Starlight Clan. It is just that we aren't too willing to leave our home." The elders similarly retorted back.
"Younger Brother Flying Snow, just as we mentioned earlier, the moment we fail to resist against the enemies, I'll have to trouble you to bring two divisions from my Starlight Clan into the Realm Heart Great Land with your Great Destruction Realm Teleportation Technique." Starlight Master announced. He felt disdainful of even hiding this.
"Rest assured. I'll definitely do it." Xue Ying nodded.
The moment they failed to resist the enemies.
The weak clansmen would form into different teams and start escaping! Previously during the celebration, Starlight Master had already requested Xue Ying for help.
Actually, there were many weak Natives clansmen that had escaped into the Realm Heart Great Land in history. It's just that they had concealed their identities and cultivators would usually not know about it! For instance, 'Great Emperor North River' had escaped into the Realm Heart Great Land when he was weak.
But–
The cultivations of the Natives and Death Destruction Clan depend highly on the environment.
The Death Destruction Clan would usually remain on the sky-floating islands for most of the time! It was comparatively easier for them to improve on the islands. It was to the extent that they could reproduce only on the islands!
Similarly, Natives could only form in the Native Worlds within Broken Tooth Mountain Range. If they were to enter the Realm Heart Great Land, it was impossible for them to leave behind any descendents! It was due to the strand of Chaotic Origin Lifeform bloodlines in their bodies. Furthermore, if they were to lose their hometown worlds, it would be a thousand times harder to grow, unless they had some heaven-defying treasures.
For instance, His Majesty Blood Flame Ji and the remaining few elites of the Blood Flame Clan had to stake everything just to acquire the Spiritual Yin Fruit. But the difficulty of acquiring such precious materials was very high.
Without being able to reproduce as well as having to use a thousand times more effort just to grow stronger, over time, the clansmen would scatter apart. They would rather just enter the world of Realm Heart Great Land, or to stealthily sneak into other Native Worlds, assimilating there. This was the reason why clans would eventually disintegrate and disappear once they lose their home worlds.
"Truly fools that do not know your strengths." God General Skeletal Dragon coldly laughed. God General Wind Smoke and God General Gluttonous Cloud both shook their heads slightly too.
"It is time for the five of you to act." God General Skeletal Dragon said, "Just kill all you want! I want to see how long can this Starlight Clan hold on for."
"Yes."
The five commanders were both angry and anxious.
"Starlight, there is still sufficient time for you to beg for mercy now!" The red-skinned ugly male shouted.
"Beg for mercy? Hmph hmph." Starlight Master chuckled coldly.
"Hurry up and attack!" God General Skeletal Dragon frowned and urged them.
The five commanders exchanged glances.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
The five of them were filled with fury. They were confident of destroying the Starlight Clan because they had three God Generals supporting them from the back! But what they foresee would be that the 30 peak experts from their five clans would similarly be killed by the Starlight Clan.
"Hong hong hong hong hong!"
The five commanders were all incredibly powerful. If they were at their home worlds, they would be as strong as Starlight Master. Nonetheless, even without the augmentation from the World Energy, the five of them were quite powerful when they worked together.
"Just fall for me!" The eyes of Xue Ying flashed.
A terrifying Mirage and Illusory Realm suddenly descended. It was resplendent and including a myriad different world appearances. This illusion started arousing all kinds of deep desires within the hearts of the five commanders, allowing them to feel as if everything they sought for could be acquired with just a single touch! Their souls were being hauled downwards under the invisible energy. Only that three-eyed man's third eye remained flashing brightly. His face which was originally bewitched, began showing signs of struggle. He widened his eyes and barely let out a shout: "Save me, save me!"
As for the other four, including the eight-armed giant, the snake-tailed girl… even though their aura had been released and they had started charging their attacks, following the descent of the illusory realm, energy soon dissipated from their hands. They started falling down onto the ground entirely intoxicated and continued flying due to inertia.
The number one killing technique of the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm–Illusory Realm World, Resplendent!
The world was so resplendent it could bewitch people!
Within an instance, four out of the five commanders fell down powerlessly. Only the three-eyed man remained barely conscious.
And right before Xue Ying executed his technique, he had transmitted to Starlight Master by the side: "Brother Starlight, I'll be using my soul technique against them. Even if they did not fall, their strength would be greatly diminished. You just have to strike and capture them as soon as possible!"
Starlight Master was originally filled with suspicions.
He could deal against Kings. And now, could he deal against Emperors? There was a qualitative transformation in the souls of Natives and Death Destruction members once they broke through to the Emperor rank, and the Emperor rank was also their highest rank.
"What! They, they all truly fell down?" Starlight Master was stunned. This was unprecedented! Never had there been Emperors falling before a soul technique! If not for Xue Ying's premature reminder, Starlight Master would definitely not be able to react in time. Fortunately, because of the reminder, Starlight Master was still able to strike out in a timely manner, capturing the five commanders using a huge palm condensed from starlight.

Chapter 1226: The Outcome of the God Generals
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Of the five commanders, only the three-eyed commander was able to maintain a slither of consciousness. He felt as if he had entered an enormous maelstrom. Beneath the maelstrom was the world which he was bewitched. How he wished he could just let things go and simply fall into that illusory world! But rationality told him that the moment he gave in, he would be doomed; his life would be under the control of someone else.
He struggled. But no matter how much he tried, he could only maintain a strand of consciousness. Even his speed of flying had become incredibly slow. Furthermore, he was currently located in the Starlight World. The presence of the starlight suppressing down prevented him from teleporting.
Fly slowly?
"Hu." An enormous starlight palm engulfed his way and easily grabbed the three-eyed commander as well as the four other commanders.
At this moment, the three-eyed commander was so weak that a King could easily suppress him. Indeed, he could not retaliate at all before 'Starlight Master' who had been powered up by his hometown World Energy.
"This, how could this be possible?" God General Skeletal Dragon, God General Wind Smoke, and God General Gluttonous Cloud were dumbstruck.
Oh god.
This was unprecedented!
They were completely dumbstruck by what had happened! Because they were clear how big the gap was between Kings and Emperors. This qualitative transformation of the soul would result in a marked difference between Kings and Emperors. Even though Emperors would still grow stronger gradually, their soul strength would remain relatively constant. Even 'grand perfection Emperors'–the Supremes–had souls slightly stronger than these initial Emperors. The only advantage they had was in their superior willpower.
After all, anyone who could become a Supreme would have incredibly strong willpower.
"Not good." God General Skeletal Dragon, God General Wind Smoke, and God General Gluttonous Cloud saw as a huge palm made from starlight came and grabbed the five commanders. Only then did the three god generals react.
But battles at their levels were fast!
The moment they reacted, the five commanders had been captured.
"What should we do?"
"Should we continue fighting back?"
The three god generals including God General Skeletal Dragon hesitated at that juncture.
They were only Emperors and were of the same rank as the five commanders who had fallen prey to the enemies! Of the five commanders, four had fallen instantaneously, with one barely keeping his consciousness, though his strength had been reduced to a stage that is simply negligible! In that case, what could they, the three god generals do against such a frightening soul technique? Their souls were slightly stronger than the five commanders, and only their will powers had a greater advantage.
But it seemed that even if they did not fall, their strength would suffer from a drastic reduction!
"This Monarch Flying Snow is strong to this extent? This is simply unprecedented! There had never been a soul technique that Emperors could not defend from." The three god generals including God General Skeletal Dragon turned to the distant white-robed young man. They felt complex.
Just a single move.
And the three god generals lost their original confidence. They were originally disdainful of all cultivators from the Realm Heart Great Land. But at this moment, they no longer dared to have such thinking.
"We should hurry off. Only one of the five commanders is able to maintain consciousness. Even though I believe we could still stay awake before his soul technique, we would be greatly weakened! Second Brother, your strength would most likely fall to a level equivalent to the Starlight Master. As for my sister and I? We might not even be able to defeat the combat formations formed by those elders." God General Gluttonous Cloud anxiously transmitted.
"There's no need to panic. Even that three-eyed servant could stay awake, so there's no need for us to be afraid of him. The few of you should retreat first. I would want to personally experience how formidable this soul technique from Monarch Flying Snow is." God General Skeletal Dragon ordered.
God General Skeletal Dragon was ranked second within the 36 God Generals.
Even across the entire Broken Teeth Mountain Range, he was ranked amongst the top. There was no need for him to escape even when facing Great Emperor North River!
"Alright, Second Brother, with your strength, you should be able to escape anytime you want. I doubt they can hold you back. My sister and I will first retreat." God General Gluttonous Cloud transmitted.
"Be careful, Second Brother." God General Wind Smoke added.
"Sou sou." The two of them immediately left.
"Escape?"
Xue Ying who initially stood there casually laughed. His Mirage and Illusory Realm abruptly expanded. One had to know that even in a suppressed environment on the sky-floating island, he could still maintain the Mirage and Illusory Realm at a distance spanning 150 million kilometers. Over here at the Native World, it did not suffer from any restriction. Hence, with a thought, he could easily cover more than half the world. God General Wind Smoke and God General Gluttonous Cloud could only fly at high speed under the illumination from the endless starlight. How could they escape out of the area of influence from the illusory realm?
"Hong–"
The terrifying Mirage and Illusory Realm easily engulfed God General Wind Smoke, God General Gluttonous Cloud, and God General Skeletal Dragon.
God General Wind Smoke's eyes immediately went blank. He had fallen into it almost in the blink of an eye!
"Not good." God General Gluttonous Cloud let out a savage look. He gritted his teeth and roared, though his eyes were filled with despair! Only when he suffered from this terrifying Mirage and Illusory Realm did he understand how scary it was. God General Gluttonous Cloud knew that they had still underestimated that Monarch Flying Snow. At this moment, God General Gluttonous Cloud was left with approximately 10% of his strength. This was even because of his slightly stronger fleshy body.
The Natives had different bloodline between different clans. They would also have differing strength. Some had exceptionally strong fleshy bodies, while some specialized in controlling the lightning.
God General Gluttonous Cloud could maintain a strand of consciousness. Even though he could still exert 10% of his strength…
"Hu."
Starlight Master sent one hand over to God General Skeletal Dragon, and another to grab God General Gluttonous Cloud.
"Monarch Flying Snow!" God General Skeletal Dragon roared. He wielded two sabers–one on each hand–and hacked down towards Starlight Master furiously. "Peng~" Under the enormous palm formed from starlight, even though God General Skeletal Dragon was focusing most of his attention on resisting the illusory realm, this technique which he executed barely still destroyed that starlight palm made from Starlight Master. He hurriedly retreated.
"Hu."
Another hand clashed against God General Gluttonous Cloud, causing God General Gluttonous Cloud to spurt out blood–he was heavily injured. At the same time, the group of elders immediately began moving in formations and killed their way over in high spirits. The combat formations they formed had reached the standard of initial Emperors. If this were ordinary times, how could they be qualified to battle against God General Gluttonous Cloud even when they were in formations? But now, they easily suppressed God General Gluttonous Cloud!
And there was still the additional help from Starlight Master's palm.
"Peng peng peng", just a breath of time later, God General Gluttonous Cloud was captured by that enormous palm.
"Damn." God General Gluttonous Cloud was filled with grief and indignance. If not for the disturbance from the illusory realm, Starlight Master would only be equivalent to his strength by relying on his hometown World Energy. But now, his strength had suffered from a drastic decrease. He was even jointly attacked by several elders. A god general like him was actually captured alive?
As for his little sister God General Wind Smoke? She had long entered deep sleep and was captured.
"Hong, hong, hong–"
That God General Skeletal Dragon was still incredibly violent and furious. He continued battling with his twin sabers.
His strength ruled the battlefield, forcing those combat formations back. Only Starlight Master was sufficient to suppress him. Nonetheless, this upper hand held by Starlight Master could not injure God General Skeletal Dragon at all. No choice! The fleshy body of God General Skeletal Dragon was too powerful! Even though he suffered from the influence of Mirage and Illusory Realm, his fleshy body remained powerful.
"His fleshy body is too strong. He should most likely still have 30% his original strength." Starlight Master transmitted to Xue Ying, "By relying on my hometown World Energy, he is approximately 60% to 70% of my current strength. I can't capture him. Furthermore, as his fleshy body is too strong, I can't injure him at all."
Xue Ying was startled when he heard that.
This was at 30%?
If the other party regained his full strength, God General Skeletal Dragon should be stronger by an entire level than Emperor Summer and Undying Underworld Emperor! Nonetheless, given the profound techniques cultivators had, Emperor Summer and the rest might be disadvantaged, yet they should be able to survive easily.
"Monarch Flying Snow, very good, very good. I'll remember you." The distant God General Skeletal Dragon roared angrily. He was completely suppressed by Starlight Master and could not enter the Starlight Capital at all. He could only roar with unwillingness before leaving the place.
He felt humiliated.
He felt angry!
He was unwilling!
He, God General Skeletal Dragon, was someone even Great Emperor North River treated politely. This time, he actually failed in the hands of a cultivator from Realm Heart Great Land! Even though he could escape, the subordinates he brought–the five commanders and two other god generals had all been captured. This was a humiliation on God General Skeletal Dragon!
At the same time–
God General Skeletal Dragon also transmitted to Great Emperor North River: "Emperor! The five commanders, God General Wind Smoke, and God General Gluttonous Cloud have all been captured alive by the Starlight Clan!"

Chapter 1227: Great Emperor North River
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Xue Ying looked as that bone-armored young man escaped. Only after he escaped out to a region where the starlight energy was weaker did he tear through space and left the vicinity.
'For him to be ranked second among the 36 God Generals, he should be ranked at the top of all experts even in the entire Broken Tooth Mountain Range.' Xue Ying thought, 'No wonder the two great clans in Broken Tooth Mountain Range, the Death Destruction Clan and Natives do not regard the cultivators highly. The gap is seriously too big.'
Saying that, there was a difference between the categories of strength the cultivators had with the two great clans in Broken Tooth Mountain Range–they were lacking the 'Emperor' rank!
'Unparalleled existences' in cultivators represented grand perfection King level! Because their techniques were sufficiently profound, they could barely fight against 'initial Emperors'. Like Swordmaster, he could barely fight against that Grand Elder! And when the stronger 'Emperor' acted, Swordmaster relied on Xue Ying's illusory realm did he survive. Even so, the greatly weakened 'Emperor' still made it hard for Swordmaster.
Emperor Summer, an existence who reached the final realm in two Daos and owned a supreme-graded secret treasure was only comparable to initial Emperors! By relying on his profound techniques, he was qualified to fight against ordinary 'Emperors' in the sky-floating islands. It was possible for him to survive when facing the low-graded Chaotic Origin Lifeforms 'eight Great Sages' too.
Undying Underworld Emperor… if he ignited his heart blood, his strength would be comparable to God Generals. By relying on his profound techniques, he could fight against 'God General Skeletal Dragon'.
'In the entire Realm Heart Great Land, only Emperor Summer and Undying Underworld Emperor could fight against Emperors. As for other cultivators, they are all weaker by an entire level. How could the gap in strength be this drastic?' Xue Ying shook his head.
"Younger Brother Flying Snow!" The excited voice of Starlight Master came from the side.
The nine elders from the Starlight Clan as well as the many apex generals and the clansmen were all looking at Xue Ying with great enthusiasm and excitement.
At the moment when Xue Ying was in a daze, feeling rueful about the gap between the cultivators and those from the Death Destruction Clan and Natives, the Starlight Clan were feeling grateful and admirable towards this cultivators 'Monarch Flying Snow'. At the same time, they were shocked by him.
"Brother Starlight." Xue Ying smiled and calmly answered.
"Previously, I felt that Younger Brother Flying Snow's soul technique is too powerful! Yet who would have thought that I am still underestimating Younger Brother Flying Snow." Starlight Master looked at Xue Ying. His eyes were filled with admiration, "Even Emperors would either fall prey to Younger Brother Flying Snow's soul technique or become greatly weakened! This is truly amazing. Ever since the start of Realm Heart Great Land and the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, Younger Brother Flying Snow is still the first person to achieve this."
Actually.
Xue Ying's soul technique could easily sweep aside most initial Emperors even if they were Natives.
That three-eyed commander had a slightly more special soul. That was why he could barely stay awake before the technique.
Even those on a higher level like the god generals did not have a resistance as great as the three-eyed commander! God General Wind Smoke for instance had simply fallen prey to the soul technique, and even God General Gluttonous Cloud was barely struggling against it. Only someone as dazzling as 'God General Skeletal Dragon' could maintain at 30% his original strength!
Xue Ying did not find it puzzling either. During those times when he was exploring the sky-floating islands, the 'Emperors' he encountered were mostly at the god general level. Even though the Death Destruction Clan was a clan with incredibly low intelligence, in terms of number, they had an overwhelming advantage in their Kings and Emperors. Even if they had slightly lower intelligence and cultivating upwards had a steep curve, three members still reached the supreme level! That was one more than the Natives.
Facing Xue Ying's killing technique, most of those Emperors would simply fall asleep.
Only some of them could maintain consciousness. At that time, Xue Ying did not have a helper like 'Starlight Master'. Hence, as long as the Emperor could maintain his consciousness, even with 10% to 20% of their original strength, they could easily snuff the avatar of Xue Ying.
'Though the Death Destruction Clan isn't united at all. Two sky-floating islands next to each other do not really interact much with one another. The Natives on the other hand, are comparatively more united and have better governance! The experts can rapidly convene as well. I wonder how that Great Emperor North River would react.' Xue Ying thought.
"Younger Brother Flying Snow, how should we handle the five commanders and two god generals that are captured? Should we take away their communication treasures?" Starlight Master asked Xue Ying.
"Brother Starlight should decide it yourself. You don't have to care about my opinions." Xue Ying replied.
"Then I shall not take them away and let them communicate as they want." Starlight Master looked forward to it, "When news of this battle spreads out, it'll definitely make Younger Brother Flying Snow famous. I believe many worlds across the entire Broken Tooth Mountain Range would soon pay attention to you, and is definitely a good thing. There might be some incurred trouble, but those who could enter the Realm Heart Great Land are at most initial Emperors. They would not dare to go out. The moment they do so, they will simply fall prey to Younger Brother's soul technique…"
"Haha."
Xue Ying laughed, "It is indeed a good affair for this to spread out."
The cultivators were disdained upon in Broken Tooth Mountain Range.
If his name were to spread across the Broken Tooth Mountain Range and reach a relatively high status, then it would be comparatively easier for him to collect various intelligence. It would be greatly helpful for him in seeking places in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range that were useful to his cultivation.
"Following this, I am worried that Great Emperor North River will personally come." Starlight Master said, "According to my understanding, the four Great Emperors under Supreme Vast Ancient are all comparable to Great Sages of the Chaotic Origin Lifeforms! And judging from the recent gambling match, Great Emperor North River is ranked first among the four Great Emperors. He is just a slight bit weaker than the Supreme himself!"
Xue Ying slightly nodded.
"More importantly, he has 36 god generals under him. Even though we have captured two of them, they are both ranked in the back! As for the one who is ranked in the front–God General Skeletal Dragon–we failed to capture him." Starlight Master transmitted. He was slightly worried, "If Great Emperor North River were to bring a group of god generals with him, things might be dangerous for us."
"Yes." Xue Ying solemnly said, "For God General Skeletal Dragon to maintain at 30% his original strength in front of me, Great Emperor North River would most definitely be able to keep a higher proportion of his strength and would be gravely dangerous to all of us."
"That's right. I have an idea."
Starlight Master transmitted, "I can contact other worlds. Now that Great Emperor North River is invading and conquering all worlds, there are many who are rebelling against him! With the presence of Younger Brother Flying Snow, Great Emperor North River will be greatly weakened! Even the slightly weaker god generals could fall prey to your soul technique. If we were to have the help of many world masters, it might be possible for us to fight back. It's just that if we were to ask the other world masters for help this time, we would have to help them in the future! I'll definitely be doing so, though I do wish that Younger Brother Flying Snow can help out as well."
"We can discuss more about this matter." Xue Ying nodded.
He disliked the way Great Emperor North River handled things.
Those who submitted to him would prosper, while those who opposed him would perish!
For him to dare wipe out an entire clan just because that clan opposed him and allow those who submitted to him to occupy those worlds. Hence, Xue Ying felt that it was a good thing to help out those in need.
"Good, good, good. With your words, Younger Brother Flying Snow, I believe many world masters will definitely be incredibly excited. Many of them are in great despair and have long looked forward to the arrival of this day." Starlight Master was excited too.
As long as the group of world masters worked together.
In addition to Xue Ying's help, they were confident of openly retaliating against Great Emperor North River!
And on the other side.
North River World. Within a grand and towering palace. At this moment, there were more than a dozen god generals gathered here. Because news had spread too quickly–the captured five commanders, God General Wind Smoke, and God General Gluttonous Cloud had been spreading the news out to those they could. Clearly, they wanted to live.
"This is actually so frightening."
"Even God General Wind Smoke could not resist at all. As for God General Gluttonous Cloud, he has just 10% his original strength remaining. If I were to face this soul technique, I would most likely be left with just 10% to 20% of my strength. At that state, I can't even win against initial Emperors."
These god generals were discussing through voice transmissions.
Great Emperor North River who wore his green robe sat at his throne looking down coldly.
The entire place was silent. Everyone was merely transmitting words and none dared to speak! Great Emperor North River made his name by killing. He had also created too many miracles. Everyone believed that since God General Skeletal Dragon could escape alive, then Great Emperor North River should be able to suppress Starlight Master and slaughter the entire Starlight World despite the interference from the soul technique.
And who knew if Great Emperor North River was still hiding any other killing techniques?
They would not find it puzzling even if Great Emperor North River were to display the strength of a Supreme. Great Emperor North River was currently the native who was closest to becoming a Supreme. After all, he had consecutively defeated three other Great Emperors of different bloodline previously, showcasing how frightening Great Emperor North River was.
"Monarch Flying Snow?"
Great Emperor North River sat above pondering over the matter.
"Hu."
Suddenly, Great Emperor North River stood.
The ten over god generals below were all startled. They turned to their commander.
Was he about to begin a huge massacre?
After all, Great Emperor North River was used to simply kill, kill, and kill when he faced any trouble in the past!
"What an amazing Monarch Flying Snow." Great Emperor North River said. His voice echoed in the hall, "Who would have guessed that there is such an expert within the cultivators. In terms of soul technique, he is genuinely the number one expert within Realm Heart Great Land and Broken Tooth Mountain Range. The existence of this expert is making me feel delighted and joyful! Go, go, go! Follow me as I head towards the Starlight World. I want to personally invite Monarch Flying Snow over to be the guest of my North River World."
The ten over god generals were stunned at that moment. They were dumbstricken.
Personally invite him?
To be the guest?

Chapter 1228: Meeting for the First Time
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
"Haha, everyone, come with me at this moment. I could hardly contain my excitement to meet Monarch Flying Snow already." Great Emperor North River laughed.
"Yes, Monarch." The god generals could only obediently acknowledge him.
Very soon, that enormous and famous 'Golden-Light Flying Wing Ship' left the North River World in a grand matter for the Starlight World.
Starlight World.
Xue Ying and Starlight Master waited with the others in a palace hall as everyone gathered. They were also prepared to face any incoming enemies.
"Younger Brother Flying Snow, I am currently contacting the other world masters." Starlight Master said, "Hearing that Younger Brother Flying Snow is willing to help them out, they are all incomparably excited. Younger Brother Flying Snow, if you have any requests, just say. Such a huge favor of saving their entire clan is something they will definitely repay!"
Xue Ying could feel the change in Starlight Master's attitude.
Initially when he first arrived, Starlight Master treated him as a friend. Yet now, he was treated as a 'benefactor', with gratitude exhibited in the speech of the other party.
"I want more information on the sky-floating islands." Xue Ying chuckled.
"This isn't worth mentioning." Starlight Master added, "Even though the intelligence is quite precious and many worlds aren't willing to leak it to outsiders, in reality, those clans would not lose out on anything after trading them away! Repaying such a huge favor of saving their clans with intelligence is something they will feel uneasy about! Without giving sufficient benefits, I don't think they will believe that Younger Brother Flying Snow is willing to stand out for them during critical moments."
Xue Ying was speechless. They were even in a rush to give him gifts.
This should be unprecedented as a cultivator from Realm Heart Great Land! In the past, those native world masters only had disdain for the cultivators.
"I can accept anything that are useless to the Natives but useful for us cultivators." Xue Ying said.
"Younger Brother Flying Snow, this request of yours is still too lacking. I'll let them prepare gifts for you. By then, you can decide for yourself." Starlight Master said. Suddenly, he paled and could not help but blurt out, "Golden-Light Flying Wing Ship! They came really quickly! I'll have to summon the other world masters."
"Golden-Light Flying Wing Ship?"
"What, Great Emperor North River came so quickly?"
The elders and generals from the Starlight Clan paled.
What identity did Great Emperor North River have?
There were many Native Worlds in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range. Whenever those World Masters were located in their hometown worlds, they would be augmented by their hometown World Energy, increasing their combat strength. Nonetheless, the moment they left their hometown, their strength would immediately drop by a major level! 'Starlight Master' could not even be ranked among the top few experts in the vast Broken Tooth Mountain Range. He was simply a very ordinary World Master. Previously, Undying Underworld Emperor could not recognize the identity of Starlight Master. But given the status of Starlight Master, he was unqualified to even meet Great Emperor North River during normal occasions. Great Emperor North River was after all termed as the existence closest to becoming a Supreme.
The Starlight Capital was illuminated by a concentrated starlight, forming a protective screen and suppressing the entire world within.
Starlight Master was already standing side by side with Xue Ying outside the city door. At the same time, many spatial fluctuations started appearing in the vicinity–many World Masters were currently rushing over! These World Masters had obtained the permission of 'Starlight Master'. That was why they did not suffer from any suppression and could teleport here directly. As for Great Emperor North River's 'Golden-Light Flying Wing Ship', it had also appeared far to the distance and was forcing its way through the starlight suppression over at high speed.
"Brother Starlight."
"Brother Starlight, why did Great Emperor North River come so quickly?"
One by one, the World Masters rushed over. They were quite familiar with Starlight Master; they were old friends! After all, the people whom Starlight Master contacted first were his closest group of World Master friends. The Broken Tooth Mountain Range was huge, and there were many Native Worlds. Many worlds did not have any relationship with the Starlight World too. Nonetheless, Starlight Master summoned more than 20 good friends of his this time round.
As they came, they looked at the white-robed young man Xue Ying with curiosity. Their expressions were filled with slight nervousness and excitement.
"This is my Younger Brother Flying Snow." Starlight Master introduced. At the same time, he turned to Xue Ying, "Younger Brother Flying Snow, these are some of my closest friends. They are also the masters of the surrounding worlds! They aren't devils since I disdain from befriending those vicious people."
"Greetings, Monarch Flying Snow." This bunch of World Masters had different appearances and shapes. Some had the body of a wild beast and human head, while some had two heads. Some had such long hair that it draped to a length longer than their body…
They had different aurae and bloodlines too.
Currently, they were greeting Xue Ying respectfully!
"Fellow World Masters, Great Emperor North River has arrived. Let us spare with the pleasantries and meet this Great Emperor North River first." Xue Ying said.
"Alright, let's meet this Great Emperor first."
"We can always have a deeper discussion with Monarch Flying Snow after the matter is settled."
The World Masters forced down the emerging thoughts in their mind as they turned to the distant void.
"Hong long long–"
That Golden-Light Flying Wing Ship was rapidly nearing their location. It was tremendous! By the sides of the ship were two wings condensed from golden light, causing the whole ship to be resplendent and incomparably dazzling! Just from the grandeur of its power made Starlight Master and the group of World Masters tremble. They felt an unspeakable pressure.
Without Xue Ying here, even if they could form a group of 100 World Masters, they would still not dare to fight with Great Emperor North River!
He could simply send out several formidable god generals, and it would be sufficient to wipe them all out!
Hence, even though Great Emperor North River was tyrannical and planned on controlling every single world in his territories, those worlds could only resist by themselves. They did not come together to resist since they would simply suffer from a 'heavy strike'.
"With Younger Brother Flying Snow around, those god generals will be greatly weakened. Those that are weaker would simply fall asleep. Even those ranked in the top ten will still be comparable to us." Starlight Master prepped the other World Masters, "Even though Great Emperor North River is powerful, his strength would most certainly decrease drastically too. I can work with 10 other World Masters to fight against him!"
"Hence, we aren't any weaker than them." Starlight Master continued.
The other World Masters nodded. For the sake of their clans coupled with the presence of Monarch Flying Snow, they finally had the confidence to oppose Great Emperor North River!
"Hu!"
The Golden-Light Flying Wing Ship stopped.
The golden light emitted from the enormous ship was striking. A group of figures appeared at the head of the ship, with a green-robed man leading the troupe. Behind him were the other god generals. Each of the god generals had an aura that felt extraordinary, and were distinctly stronger than the World Masters. As for 'Great Emperor North River', the suppressive pressure from him was even more terrifying.
Standing there alone brought terror and anxiety to all Natives in the Starlight Capital.
One person could easily wipe a world.
That was easily achievable by Great Emperor North River!
"Great Emperor North River." Xue Ying looked up. He finally witnessed that famous Great Emperor North River, an existence who was indubitably ranked amongst the top across the entire Broken Tooth Mountain Range, and someone who was close to Supremes in strength!
The gaze of Great Emperor North River also cast over.
At this moment.
Their lines of sight clashed.
A grin appeared by the edge of Great Emperor North River's mouth. Or rather, within this group of experts in Starlight Capital, there was only Monarch Flying Snow who was worth his attention.

Chapter 1229: A Petal of Flower
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Great Emperor North River stood on the Golden-Light Flying Wing Ship looking only at Xue Ying. Nobody else entered his eyes. At this moment, Starlight Master and the other 20 over World Masters were immensely nervous. They did not have any path of retreat! If they did not wish to be enslaved, they had to fight!
"Are we about to battle?"
"I wonder how strong would Great Emperor North River be after suffering from Monarch Flying Snow's soul technique."
"Great Emperor North River is purportedly the youngest and the strongest Great Emperor. His strength could be compared to the Supremes. I hope that he would at least be weakened by half under Monarch Flying Snow's soul technique."
"No matter what, he is still an Emperor! Much less him, even Supremes are Emperors who have reached grand perfection. Since everyone is at the Emperor rank, their souls would not be drastically different. The only difference is their will powers." These World Masters were communicating with one another. They were prepared at all times–ready to fight against their nemesis.
At this juncture, there were only two people who were slightly more relaxed.
One was Xue Ying since he had many avatars. It was fine as long as he tried his best here.
And the other was Great Emperor North River! He held the initiative. Whether the wanted to battle or not would be decided by him.
As for the others–the World Masters, the clansmen from the Starlight Clan, or even those god generals behind Great Emperor North River who were slightly nervous. Even the number one god general, 'God General An Dou', did not dare to be too careless. After all, he did not think he could deal with the soul technique better as compared to God General Skeletal Dragon! And now, there was even a large group of World Masters here! The moment they were surrounded, only Great Emperor North River could have an easy time.
"Hahaha…"
His laughter reverberated across the void, "I've heard that an amazing character has appeared within the cultivators from Realm Heart Great Land. His soul technique could supposedly cause even Emperors to fall prey to it. I am filled with admiration for him after finding out about this! God General Skeletal Dragon and the others are too rude and impetuous. Knowing that you are this strong, they still wish to fight. If I were present, I would have stopped the battle."
Xue Ying was slightly startled.
Starlight Master and the group of World Masters were staring blankly too. The members from the Starlight Clan even fell into a daze.
What did this mean?
Stop the battle?
"Monarch Flying Snow is the number one expert in the Dao of Soul in history across both Realm Heart Great Land and the Broken Tooth Mountain Range! Hearing about the existence of such a wondrous character, I am only filled with delight. Knowing that God General Skeletal Dragon and the others have struck against Monarch Flying Snow in the past, I came personally to invite Monarch Flying Snow to be my guest at my North River World. I wonder if Monarch Flying Snow is willing to give me some face in this?" Great Emperor North River folded his hands and looked at Xue Ying from his position at the head of the ship.
"Invite me?" Xue Ying was calm on the surface, though he was puzzled inwardly. He immediately sent a voice transmission to Starlight Master, "Brother Starlight, can you tell me what does Great Emperor North River mean with this?"
"I am finding it puzzling too." Starlight Master was bewildered. He replied, "If he planned to battle, there would be no need for him to say these. Unless he genuinely plans on becoming good friends with Younger Brother Flying Snow? Younger Brother Flying Snow, you should be careful too since this might be a scheme."
"Scheme? Why am I afraid of it? This is merely an avatar. I can dissipate it with a thought." Xue Ying transmitted back, "Since Great Emperor North River has invited me over, I shall follow him and see what he wants. Rest assured, I'll send an avatar over. The other avatars would still remain here."
"Mn, it suffices for Younger Brother Flying Snow to remain vigilant." Starlight Master agreed. For a moment, he could not think of anything that might threaten this expert who could give up his avatar any time. A technique that targeted his soul? A soul technique might affect his other avatars. Nonetheless, Xue Ying was the strongest expert in the Dao of Soul across all history of Realm Heart Great Land and Broken Tooth Mountain Range!
"Unless Monarch Flying Snow minds the fact that God General Skeletal Dragon and the others have offended you?" Great Emperor North River chuckled.
"Since Great Emperor North River has personally invited me, I shall go and have a look. I haven't been to the North River World before." Xue Ying laughed.
Great Emperor North River nodded. At the same time, he glanced at Starlight Master who stood beside Xue Ying. He knew that the reason why Xue Ying chose to help the Starlight Clan is because he had a past encounter with Starlight Master! He said: "If Starlight Master is willing, you can follow as well."
Starlight Master hesitated.
Follow them?
Monarch Flying Snow could give his avatar up any time. But he did not have any!
"Many thanks Great Emperor." Starlight Master said. He simply condensed an incarnation to follow Xue Ying along.
Sending an incarnation with Xue Ying over to the North River World showed how worried he was that he might die! Great Emperor North River did not mind it, though the group of god generals behind him were sneering inwardly. What identity did the Great Emperor have? Even if he planned on scheming against someone, he would not do so against an ordinary World Master! That was simply disgraceful!
Starlight Master understood this point, though he did not dare to take the risk since they were the ones challenging Great Emperor North River this time.
"Sou! Sou!"
Xue Ying brought along the incarnation of Starlight Master and flew towards that Golden-Light Flying Wing Ship.
"When I heard the news about Monarch Flying Snow, I immediately came to meet you, Monarch. And my first impression of you is indeed, you are an extraordinary person." Great Emperor North River was incredibly passionate in welcoming him. At the same time, he ordered, "Go, let us return."
The Golden-Light Flying Wing Ship once again set off on the path back home.
North River World.
Within the towering palace inside the main palace hall, Great Emperor North River currently sat at the throne. He personally placed Xue Ying at the first position to his left. Starlight Master basked in the light as well for he was placed second to the left. As for the other god generals, they were seated beneath them.
"Sou sou sou…"
One by one, more god generals came.
"Monarch."
"Monarch."
The god generals bowed and greeted before going to their seats.
When everyone came—a total of 34 out of 36 god generals were here. The other two who did not come were none other than God General Wind Smoke and God General Gluttonous Cloud who had been captured! Great Emperor North River did not ask and demand for those two prisoners back.
"Today, I am delighted that I could invite Monarch Flying Snow over here. In the Dao of Soul, Monarch Flying Snow has walked even further than all of us. Even the Supremes were quite lacking in the Dao of Soul compared to the Monarch." Great Emperor North River said. In the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, most would treat the Supremes with sufficient respect! Only Great Emperor North River dared to spout such things because his status was similarly high.
Otherwise, just a slight disrespect and the subordinates of the Supreme would come and kill the perpetrator.
"Mn?"
"Monarch seems to be treating this cultivator Flying Snow with too much regard."
"He is indeed treating him with too much importance."
The god generals had various thoughts. They were scheming in their hearts.
Great Emperor North River then clapped lightly.
At that moment, many female servants brought up all sorts of nice wine and delicacies. When the delicacies were placed before them, right at the center of some fruits, there was a plate. The plate was placed with an indigo petal. This petal was approximately the size of a palm. It seemed to contain lots of pulp, and one could smell the fragrance coming from it, causing others to salivate. Every particle within the fleshy body was shouting out in desire to eat this petal.
"This is?" Seated by the side of Xue Ying was Starlight Master. Even though he had gasped in surprise at how many delicacies there were, it was this petal that made him dumbstricken, "Magpie Flower?"
Magpie Flower was legendary in Broken Tooth Mountain Range.
A Magpie Flower contained a total of 18 petals. Just in this banquet itself, 34 god generals, Xue Ying, and Starlight Master added to a total of 36. It required two Magpie Flowers to feed them.
The so-called 'Magpie Flower Banquet' of Great Emperor North River was a grand feast ranked in the front across Broken Tooth Mountain Range. In terms of value, a single petal was sufficient to the Spiritual Yin Fruit that His Majesty Blood Flame Ji sought to get. More importantly, the Magpie Flower was a miraculous item to every Native. It was unlike the Spiritual Yin Fruit which would only be miraculous to some bloodlines.
The reason why Great Emperor North River could command the 36 god generals was hugely because of the 'Magpie Flower'. And the 'Magpie Flower Tree' was currently owned by Great Emperor North River alone!
"I, I actually could get a petal of the Magpie Flower too?" Starlight Master was incredibly excited. In the past, he had only heard of this petal but never seen it before.
"Everyone, let's toast and enjoy the food together!" Great Emperor North River raised his goblet and announced with a smile.
The level of this banquet was incredibly high. All sorts of precious delicacies not any lesser than the Magpie Flower were served.
This puzzled Xue Ying. Was Great Emperor North River being too enthusiastic? Was he planning on making up for the past conflict? But there was no need to be so exuberant.
The banquet lasted for half a day before it ended.
Great Emperor North River personally invited Xue Ying over for a walk in a vast garden.
"Great Emperor, it is time for you to speak whatever you have in mind." Xue Ying said.
"You could guess that I have something to speak to you?" Great Emperor North River chuckled.
"If there is nothing, then using up two Magpie Flowers just for a banquet is too extravagant." Xue Ying said. Even he as a cultivator could feel how fresh and tender that petal was when he ate it. He could feel an unseen energy entering his body and nourishing it. It catalyzed many subtle transformations, allowing his fleshy body to be strengthened by another level.
Of course, previously, his fleshy body could barely be compared to that of a peak Cosmos God body cultivator. But this level of fleshy body was still too lacking compared to an Emperor from the Broken Tooth Mountain Range.
For this petal of the Magpie Flower to rise his fleshy body by an entire level, it was simply such a waste! If given to a Native King expert, its effects would be more miraculous.
"Haha, so what if I use up two Magpie Flowers at welcoming Monarch Flying Snow?" Great Emperor North River looked towards the endless world, chuckling, "I wonder if Monarch Flying Snow is willing to share this world with me? My treasures can be split into half, with half given to you!"
Xue Ying was stunned.

Chapter 1230: The Final Awakening of the Natives
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Half of Great Emperor North River's treasures would be given to him?
Xue Ying was clear how powerful this number one expert below Supremes, 'Great Emperor North River' was, and how many treasures he had! It was said that the treasures in 'Broken Tooth Mountain Range' was endless. It was even so alluring to cultivators that led them to take the risk and gamble their luck here. Nonetheless, in reality, most of the apex treasures had already been occupied!
The five Great Supremes, the eight Great Sages within the low-graded Chaotic Origin Lifeforms, and the group of Great Emperors…
These who were powerful had already occupied all top-class treasures!
Only those items that they were disdainful were given to the cultivators to compete for.
"Why, you don't believe me?" Great Emperor North River looked at Xue Ying.
"What does Great Emperor have in mind for saying these?" Xue Ying looked at Great Emperor North River.
"As I said before! My treasures and all treasures I get in the future will be split into half with you! Everything will be equally divided." Great Emperor North River looked at Xue Ying, "I have never even mentioned this with any of my 36 god generals! You are the first person to be qualified for me to say these things to."
"There is no free lunch in this world. I doubt the treasures of Great Emperor are that easily given." Xue Ying said, "What do I have to fork out?"
"Hahaha… it isn't something much either. As long as you become my sworn brother." Great Emperor North River said, "You will also stand as my equal in the territory I have, as Great Emperor Flying Snow! Whatever you say is also my words."
"Equal status?" Xue Ying frowned, "Then if I say we should stop invading those worlds?
"Then we shall stop!" Great Emperor North River laughed.
"What about the regions that Great Emperor has conquered earlier? Would they regain their freedom as well?" Xue Ying asked.
"As I said before, your words are mine!" Great Emperor North River looked at Xue Ying.
Xue Ying felt that Great Emperor North River was overly sincere.
He was willing to abandon the world.
And to split half his treasures with him. Why was that?
"Brother Flying Snow! You shouldn't underestimate yourself." Great Emperor North River laughed, "The reason why I did my best to conquer so many worlds is so that I have more experts that I can use! And for them to hear my orders. Only then could I gain more benefits in the entire Broken Tooth Mountain Range, and only then can I get what I desire."
"Currently, even with my name of the Great Emperor, most of my subordinates remain free and unfettered. There are few and far between who actually listen to my orders. Then what use is there for me to be a Great Emperor?" Great Emperor North River looked at Xue Ying, "But with your help, things would be different."
"Before you, numbers have lost its meaning."
Great Emperor North River shook his head, "The weaker god generals are simply a joke before you! And there are few on the level of God General Skeletal Dragon. Even though they can barely maintain their strength, it is meagre to me."
Xue Ying agreed.
God General Skeletal Dragon was originally weaker by a level as compared to Great Emperor North River.
Before his illusory realm, the other party would have been left with 30% of his strength! The gap between him and Great Emperor North River would have been widened. It would be hard to say if he could escape alive from Great Emperor North River.
"Even other Great Emperors will similarly be weakened before you! I am originally ranked closest to becoming a Supreme. If the other Great Emperors are greatly weakened, they would no longer be my opponent." Great Emperor North River looked at Xue Ying, "And even the five Great Supremes! The five Great Supremes are Emperors who have reached grand perfection. Their souls and initial Emperors have no qualitative differences. It's only their will that is more extraordinary. Before your soul technique, their strength would still be weakened! By then, they are more or less comparable to me."
"Hence, when both you and I work together, we can fight against even the Supremes!"
"When you and I work together, a group of Emperors working hand in hand is simply a joke before us." Great Emperor North River looked at Xue Ying, "Even Supremes would have a hard time dealing with many Emperors working together. But we no longer have this flaw should we work together! It is an optimal combination that would give us the capabilities to move unhindered across the entire Broken Tooth Mountain Range! The resources that we can get will far surpass what we have now!"
Great Emperor North River looked at Xue Ying: "Brother Flying Snow, you should understand my sincerity now!"
Xue Ying was enlightened.
That's right.
Great Emperor North River was just slightly weaker than the Supremes. With his help, he could definitely fight against Supremes without losing! Even if there was a gap, it would be negligible.
As for jointly attacking them? They would all be a joke before his soul technique!
"What do the few of us cultivate until this stage for?" Great Emperor North River's eyes were blazing with fervor, "That is to enter that mysterious Chaotic Origin level! At that level, only then can it be truly called jumping out of the cage! What we are now are still ants stuck within the cage."
Xue Ying agreed in his heart.
Jump out of the cage?
When he peered into the higher dimension using the 'Destruction Realm Teleportation Scouting Technique', he could easily observe another nearby Origin World. Those that were further would be more fuzzy in his vision! He heard stories of how those who reached 'final realm' would have more magical techniques. Like Old Monster Stone, his body could exist everywhere–he could teleport across the entire Origin World.
That was a technique only a peak Cosmos God had.
If he could jump out of the cage, his techniques would simply be unimaginable! The closer he was to that level, the more he could feel how unique it was. That was the fundamental difference between getting out of the cage!
If the desire of Cosmos Gods to reach the 'final realm' was one unit, then the desire to get out of the cage would be a hundred units, a thousand units, or even ten thousand units!
"We Natives are different from you cultivators." Great Emperor North River said, "Talking about which, we have the same origin as the Death Destruction Clan."
Xue Ying felt his heart displacing.
"You do know that in the legends, there are two incredibly terrifying corpses of Chaotic Origin Lifeforms left in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range." Great Emperor North River said, "These two corpses are from genuine Chaotic Origin Lifeforms, and the techniques they have are simply unfathomable. They had once fought with 'Yuan', and even injured Yuan. In the end, these two corpses were thrown into the Broken Tooth Mountain Range. They are so powerful, that the remnant aura left behind by them is sufficient to snuff ordinary Kings to death. It could even suppress Emperors!"
Xue Ying thought of those gray eyes and how his avatars would simply be wiped the moment they touched it.
"We Natives and the Death Destruction Clans can trace our origins to the two corpses of powerful Chaotic Origin Lifeforms." Great Emperor North River said, "We Natives have a better time since our bodies are left with a trace of bloodline from the Chaotic Origin Lifeforms without dampening our intelligence. We can easily give birth to more children and reproduce further."
"The Death Destruction Clan is different! Why is the Death Destruction Clan given this name? That's because they had been given birth from death. They do not have any parents, and are purely given birth from the deathly aura in the sky-floating islands." Great Emperor North River explained, "Hence, 99% of their clan do not have high intelligence and could be likened to that of wild beasts! They only know how to kill and devour!"
Great Emperor North River looked at Xue Ying: "And it's because of the remains of those two great Chaotic Origin Lifeforms, that made us stronger than you cultivators. We have another so-called 'Emperor realm'."
"Mn." Xue Ying nodded.
Emperor realm.
That was indeed another level!
Within cultivators, even those who had 'supreme secret impartation' like Swordmaster, could only reach grand perfection King combat strength!
Those who had supreme-graded secret treasures as an external auxiliary support! Eternal Night Primogenitor, Ancestor Fan, Emperor Cang, Extreme Night Primogenitor, Towering Sky King and other unparalleled existences were also approximately at the grand perfection King level.
Emperor Summer and Undying Underworld Emperor had both reached the final realm in two Daos. Only then did they break apart this realm limit!
"The Emperor realm is too difficult for cultivators." Xue Ying said.
"Difficult?" Great Emperor North River sneered, "I've heard the news that as the realm of cultivators deepen, some could even control the origin of an Origin World, becoming the master of the Origin World. With a huge Origin World as foundation, they would immediately become a powerful Chaotic Origin Lifeform. Some could spread a religion and make use of the masses will power to influence the origin of the Origin World and take control of the world. Some who have an even higher realm are more amazing–they can rely on their strength to break through! By relying on laws, they can forcibly reach a higher realm."
"All of you have walked to where you are step by step since you were weak."
"And once you reach the Chaotic Origin level, that is done on the basis of understanding the laws. Your utilization of energy is incomparably profound too." Great Emperor North River bitterly said, "We are different. We might be overall stronger than you cultivators now, but that is merely because our clans have a more unique origin. What we cultivate is the strength of our bloodlines. This strength might allow us to power up very quickly at the start, but it'll only be harder over time."
"And to reach grand perfection Emperor! That is already the limit known to us." Great Emperor North River said, "Yuan had once told our clans that as long as grand perfection Emperors take another step! We could then undergo the final awakening of our bloodlines. This would overturn our bloodlines, allowing us to become authentic 'ancestors' of our clans–that means we have become authentic Chaotic Origin Lifeforms too. As ancestors of our clans, this is a level that those low-graded Chaotic Origin Lifeforms in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range could not compare."
"But this step is achievable in the legends, yet none have ever done so in Broken Tooth Mountain Range." Great Emperor North River looked at Xue Ying, "We feel that this final awakening of the bloodline is immensely difficult. Other than ourselves, we need all sorts of external materials to catalyse this evolution."

Chapter 1231: Great Benefactor
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
"Don't see how wild and borish the members of the Death Destruction Clan are, their Kings are quite intelligent, and their Emperors are naturally not stupid." Great Emperor North River said, "Just like us Natives, the Death Destruction Clan is also pursuing after the final awakening and to metamorphosize! We are all competing for the precious external materials! As the Death Destruction Clan is given birth on the sky-floating islands, they have a greater advantage than us. They occupy a greater amount of resources."
"Brother Flying Snow." Great Emperor North River looked at Xue Ying, "I'll need your help! When we work together, we have fewer flaws than even Supremes."
Xue Ying looked at Great Emperor North River.
The eyes of Great Emperor North River were sincere.
Xue Ying was clear that they who had eternal life, would feel incredibly unsatisfied the moment they felt how they were like ants trapped in the cage. Naturally, an intense desire to jump out of the cage and increase their level of life would form.
But––
Xue Ying did not like the way Great Emperor North River did things!
For the sake of his goals, he would do things unscrupulously. Many worlds of the Natives, including some of the weaker ones did not plan on pledging loyalty to him. As a result, Great Emperor North River planned to kill all of them! He would rather exchange for those who would be subservient to him. By relying on these cruel methods, he planned to intimidate the Natives and force more worlds to pledge their loyalty to him.
'He is too unscrupulous. It is not worth it to become sworn brothers with him.' Xue Ying thought.
"Great Emperor."
Xue Ying said, "If you and I work together, then what if some other experts and Supremes ask us for help in the future?"
"Naturally, we can't promise that easily." Great Emperor North River said, "Without your help, only then can we have a greater advantage! After all, the amount of resources is limited. Once others have them, we would have less."
"I understand." Xue Ying said, "Then I do hope for Great Emperor to forgive me. I temporarily do not wish to tie myself completely on this ship with you."
Great Emperor North River was stunned. He was stunned momentarily.
"I very much prefer to be free. When I face many things, I like to decide for myself how I do things. I am not very willing to be tied together with another person." Xue Ying said. Firstly, he did not like the personality of Great Emperor North River! Secondly, he did not really care about those resources that the Natives and Death Destruction Clan were desiring for! Cultivators paid more attention to the rise of their realms.
Since that's the case, why would he tie himself together with Great Emperor North River and to kill and fight with him?
"You are willing to help the Starlight Clan, and some of the weaker worlds. Could you help me too?" Great Emperor North River looked at Xue Ying.
"Naturally I could." Xue Ying chuckled, "But it depends on what it is."
"Haha, I've long heard of the personality of Brother Flying Snow. You hate all evil, and should most likely not be used to the way I handle things." Great Emperor North River chuckled, "But I really need your help to deal against a Supreme in the Death Destruction Clan."
"Oh?"
Xue Ying understood, "Alright, this I can promise."
Even though he had several techniques, he did not wish to infuriate Great Emperor North River either, causing him to leave behind the Starlight World and many other worlds in ruins!
Furthermore, the one he was dealing with was a Supreme from the Death Destruction Clan.
The Death Destruction Clan had three Supremes in total. But because they were all given birth from death, the three Supremes were all incredibly vicious and evil! They were all indubitably great devils! Fortunately, there was the presence of the two Native Supremes, hindering the three Supremes during crucial moments. Only then could the Natives live such peaceful days.
"I dare not think about this previously, but now that there is Brother Flying Snow around, I am slightly confident." Great Emperor North River was greatly delighted when he heard the promise of Xue Ying, "I have to prepare properly. Once I am done, I'll inform Brother Flying Snow."
"I'll leave behind an avatar in the Starlight world. If Great Emperor plans on finding me, you can visit the Starlight World." Xue Ying said.
"Alright. I'll definitely not mistreat you for helping me out." Great Emperor North River chuckled, "My original plan of invading the worlds will be stopped at this moment. It can be considered as making amends for what I did previously."
Xue Ying's happiness grew when heard that: "Then I have to thank Great Emperor. I believe many worlds will also feel gratitude for you, Great Emperor."
"They should be thankful to you!" Great Emperor North River replied.
After chatting with Great Emperor North River, they left.
Xue Ying went off with the incarnation of Starlight Master.
"We are leaving just like that?" Starlight Master transmitted a question.
"Mn."
"Great Emperor has created such a huge disturbance. This Magpie Flower Banquet is meant to welcome you, yet after exchanging a few words, he let you off just like this?" Starlight Master was filled with sweat.
Xue Ying glanced at him without saying much. He simply flew out.
"Wait for me!" Starlight Master's incarnation immediately chased after him.
This incarnation was not important! But that piece of 'Magpie Flower petal' was immensely so!
After this banquet ended.
The name of Monarch Flying Snow gradually spread out. It was especially startling to the higher-ups of the Natives across the entire Broken Tooth Mountain Range.
'Oh? His soul technique could easily cause Emperors to fall for it. Even God General Wind Smoke fell instantaneously to his technique?' A tall and thin violet-robed old man thought. His aura was abnormally terrifying. It spread out in all directions, causing lightning to form from nothing and snake around him. He was one of the two Supremes the Natives had, 'Supreme Lightning Firmament'.
He had awakened his bloodline to grand perfection and could feel the energy from another level.
That was a terrifying energy.
And he sought to grasp it. To do so, he had to jump out of this world and out of the laws set by 'Yuan'. Only then could he penetrate through the endless space and enter all sorts of mysterious grounds.
'I've never heard of such soul techniques, though I believe even Supremes have to spend quite a lot of heart force to resist against it.' The violet-robed old man thought, 'That North River is quite cunning. He immediately went to invite that Monarch Flying Snow at the first instance.'
'Monarch Flying Snow? There actually exists someone with this soul technique?'
The entire body of Supreme Vast Ancient was surrounded with a heat wave. Those who were slightly weaker could not even look at him with their eyes. Supreme Vast Ancient naturally emitted a eye-piercing light that was like a huge fireball.
'Even though his direct combat skills are ordinary, so low that it can be ignored, his soul technique could even affect me. It appears that an amazing expert has appeared from the Realm Heart Great Land.' Supreme Vast Ancient thought. Over the years, he had never cared about the cultivators from the Realm Heart Great Land. But this time, he had to think twice.
Even in his heart, the 'threat' from this Monarch Flying Snow was higher than from the Great Emperors.
'This North River is cunning enough. He immediately took the initiative to invite Monarch Flying Snow and even organized a banquet! His actions are fast enough. By the time I got the news, it is too late.' A black-robed single-horned male shook his head slightly.
'I am a step too slow. Hopefully, that Monarch Flying Snow doesn't choose to join North River.' The World Energy condensed into an absolute beauty. She watched from the distance in the direction of the Starlight World, murmuring to herself, "North River is incredibly ambitious. The other three Great Emperors under His Majesty Supreme Vast Ancient have been schemed by him even, losing the gambling match. This time, if he has the help from that Monarch Flying Snow, my clan might just have a third Supreme appearing.'
The news spread naturally fast across the higher-ups of the Natives. Everyone was paying notice to this Monarch Flying Snow.
And Xue Ying had returned to the Starlight World in the meantime.
There was also news that spread soon after–
The army of Great Emperor North River that was originally intending to invade the Native Worlds, had completely retreated!
"They have completely retreated."
"The entire army under Great Emperor North River has retreated. The region originally governed by Great Emperor Glorious Earth has also regained its freedom."
"The retreating army has even declared that Great Emperor North River has agreed to Monarch Flying Snow's request to stop invading those worlds!"
"It is Monarch Flying Snow's sympathy for those worlds that Great Emperor North River agreed to retreat."
Many pieces of news were spreading like wildfire.
Most of those worlds had already become despondent over their situation. Now that the army of Great Emperor North River had retreated, their hometown was able to regain its usual peace. They could return and live their lives freely as in the past. Only after regaining their freedom from 'despair' did they learn how to appreciate their freedom more.
And they knew that Monarch Flying Snow had an agreement with Great Emperor North River, which was why Great Emperor North River chose to retreat.
Various parties were filled with gratitude.
This was a huge favor garnered by saving everybody's hometown worlds! This was a huge favor of saving their clans!
"Great benefactor!"
"Monarch Flying Snow has saved our clan!"
"Given the personality of Great Emperor North River, it is impossible for him to stop invading for no reasons. After all, given that it is such a huge territory, Monarch Flying Snow should have done something for him to give it up."
"It's all thanks to Monarch Flying Snow."
Many worlds sent out their teams to Starlight World so as to visit this great benefactor of theirs, 'Monarch Flying Snow'.
Many teams came continuously.
"Monarch."
"Monarch Flying Snow."
These emissaries originated from different worlds. Many of them were brought personally by the World Master of a territory. Their eyes were all filled with incredible gratitude when they visited Xue Ying. They had all prepared their gifts! Such a huge favor of saving their hometown and their clan… was something they could not restrain on! Whatever they thought would be useful to this cultivator, 'Monarch Flying Snow', they had them prepared.
When Xue Ying faced these teams that came without stopping, he was slightly dumbstruck when he saw the treasures that piled up like a mountain.
'It seems Great Emperor North River deliberately mentioned about me asking a plea of leniency for them? So that he is making me the benefactor of those clans?' Xue Ying understood the way Great Emperor North River think.

Chapter 1232: Treasures piled up like Mountain
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
'He is afraid that even though I might promise to help him, I could still scheme against him without using my full strength during critical moments?' Xue Ying thought. At the same time, he was dealing with the teams coming from different worlds. Those who were leading the teams–the World Masters and the Elders were filled with gratitude towards Xue Ying. They came to thank him profusely.
"Great Benefactor Monarch, my Floating Origin World is truly unable to repay this great favor of saving my clan. From now on, if there are any orders, Monarch can just tell us and my Floating Origin World will definitely do it!"
"Monarch Flying Snow, we were total strangers previously, and because of Monarch's sympathy, our clan has been saved…"
Those who came to visit him were exhibiting their emotions through speeches.
The eyes of some visitors were brimming red, and some even cried tears of joy! Their tears were not just filled with gratitude. Instead, it came thinking back how many clansmen had sacrificed their lives for the clan!
It was arduous time.
Fortunately, the presence of Monarch Flying Snow saved their worlds.
And Xue Ying did not put on airs. Instead, he received them one by one. He even organized a great banquet for many of the teams originating from different world to participate.
"Monarch Flying Snow is indeed extraordinary."
"With the identity of Monarch, even weaker god generals are forced down before him. Those on the level of God General Skeletal Dragon would be greatly weakened as well. With such a strength, Monarch is still treating us so politely."
"I've heard that Monarch has single-handedly intimidated all devils in Realm Heart Great Land while saving many others at the same time."
"Ah! Do share everything you know about Monarch in the Realm Heart Great Land!"
Many parties were discussing about it during the banquet.
They came from different worlds. In the past, some of them might not have any relationship with one another! And some were even enemies! But today, they had a common benefactor–Monarch Flying Snow! This resulted in the banquet being held at full swing, with the atmosphere being exceptionally vibrant. That's because everyone understood that their hometowns would no longer suffer from any invasions from now on.
As long as the Great Emperor North River did not attack them!
Then their hometowns would be very safe. Because this belonged to the territory of Great Emperor North River, and other Great Emperors would not be qualified to act.
It was during this banquet that Xue Ying met and acquiesced with many World Masters. He also received an incredible amount of presents.
'So many presents.'
'It has even piled up to a mountain.'
Xue Ying sat at the banquet extending his senses into the storage Eden World. He could see the mountain-like gifts piled there.
Many of these treasures even gave off a grand aura.
There were two supreme-graded secret treasures! And a total of 106 top-graded secret treasures! As for the precious materials, they could not be counted.
'Madness. This is madness.' Xue Ying was slightly numb, 'Right now, I should be the wealthiest cultivator across the entire Realm Heart Great Land.'
Others said that there were innumerable treasures in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, yet in reality, the Natives were stronger! As they went on many expeditions, most of the treasures had ended up in their hands! For instance, supreme-graded secret treasures, top-graded secret treasures… these treasures had extraordinary aurae and one could easily discern how precious they were! Even though the Natives attempted to use them, it ended up to no avail as they cultivated primarily on their bloodline!
But even if they could not use them, they would still keep them when they saw one!
For instance, Extreme Night Primogenitor and others once devoured a great deal of Natives, stealing a huge amount of treasures from the Natives too. There were unparalleled existences who came to transact with the Natives as well! It's just that what the Natives needed were incredibly rare. Most of them were items that were of help to improve their bloodlines. Most of these treasures were usually required by the Death Destruction Clan too!
And the difficulty of acquiring those items on the sky-floating islands was much harder than finding any top-graded secret treasures!
'The many worlds have even discovered two pieces of supreme-graded secret treasures. One is of the Dao of Flame and the other of the Dao of Strength.' Xue Ying thought. For instance, Eight Silk Island Master cultivated in the Dao of Strength. If he acquired this mysterious pole, he would immediately become an unparalleled existence! And 'Sacred Fire City Master' cultivated the Dao of Flames.
It's a pity that both Sacred Fire City Master and Eight Silk Island Master were great devils. It was impossible for Xue Ying to trade with them.
'Emperor Summer should have cultivated the Dao of Flames and Dao of Void.' Xue Ying thought. Emperor Summer currently only had a void-type supreme-graded secret treasure!
'Top-graded secret treasures…'
Xue Ying mumbled to himself.
There were many of such treasures! The Summer Wind Ancient Nation was one of the six great ancient nations. The Fan Clan had six Great Paragons, the Summer Clan had nine Great Paragons, and the Cang Clan had seven Great Paragons. There were also a group of Paragon Masters that were not from the three great clans like Great Paragon Fu Yi and other minority who owned several top-graded secret treasures. But adding all of them up, there would only be a total of a dozen top-graded secret treasures.
He himself had more than a hundred! That was more than what an ancient nation had accumulated over a long period!
'After all, they were given by so many Native Worlds.' Xue Ying sighed inwardly. Adding up the huge amount of precious materials, his wealth had indeed leaped across almost all unparalleled existences. Even Undying Underworld Emperor who once attempted to charge along the path of becoming a Chaotic Origin Lifeform might not be as rich as he!
'There are a total of nine void-related top-graded secret treasures, with three stronger than the Void Fire Lotus Flower.' Xue Ying sighed.
Some of the top-graded secret treasures in Realm Heart Great Land had been acquired from the Realm Heart God Palace. Some were from the Broken Tooth Mountain Range. Others had been refined by final realm experts!
And those in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range…
Were almost all left by 'Yuan'.
Yuan left behind many opportunities for the cultivators.
He wanted the cultivators to fight and compete for them! He even wanted them to fight with the Natives! Who would have thought that Xue Ying had actually done something that made many Native Worlds grateful to him. And as a result, these worlds even flipped their storage so as to find useful treasures for cultivators to give them to their benefactor! After all, giving these items used by cultivators would not make them feel as heart-aching as giving materials that were greatly useful for the Natives. They were definitely willing.
Supreme-graded secret treasures were precious, though they could not use them! They would only be using these treasures to trade with the cultivators from Realm Heart Great Land. For the sake of thanking their benefactor, they could simply give them away!
The banquet ended soon after.
Xue Ying executed his Great Destruction Realm Teleportation Technique to send those treasures back to his Flying Snow City.
'Where shall I go next?' Xue Ying flipped through the sets of intelligence reports on the sky-floating islands. They had been given by the many worlds. With this huge amount of intelligence provided, Xue Ying's understanding of the Broken Tooth Mountain Range's sky-floating islands had immediately surpassed all others from the Realm Heart Great Land!
'Wu.'
'There are still 1,200 other islands containing the mysterious eyes.' Xue Ying nodded, 'Indeed, the Blood Flame Clan alone can't make up for number. I have to think of some ways of exploring all 1,200 islands.'
'But I'm not in a rush either. Even though cultivating the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm might be important, it isn't as important as that of the Dao of Void.'
His hometown Origin World was becoming bigger, and the date of the apocalypse was looming ever closer.
Xue Ying had to reach the final realm in the Dao of Void before the Great Apocalypse!
'Islands that are useful to my cultivation of the Dao of Void.' Xue Ying pondered, 'According to the intelligence, there are quite a few sky-floating islands with opportunities left behind for the Dao of Void. But first, those opportunities are not as helpful to me as the 'World Flowers' bestowed by Luo City Lord! Secondly, I have experienced quite a few opportunities in the 500 over sky-floating islands I've been to in the past. Hence, right now, what I need is to meditate and consolidate my comprehension.'
'And when talking about meditating, there is indeed a supreme treasure within the Broken Tooth Mountain Range.'
'The Seven Bell Pagoda!'
Xue Ying's eyes brightened.
The Seven Bell Pagoda was a treasure similar to the 'Burning Heart God Tree' or 'Origin Realm God Palace' in the Realm Heart Great Land. They did not have to be controlled.
Nonetheless, the Seven Bell Pagoda was much stronger than the Burning Heart God Tree and Origin Realm God Palace. It was even considered as the number one supreme treasure for meditating and cultivation in Broken Tooth Mountain Range. Even though they were not as important to the Natives and the Death Destruction Clan, they were similarly competing for it in madness. Eventually, it ended up in the hands of 'Great Emperor Shamanic Wind'.
The Seven Bell Pagoda was incredibly special. It had seven bells hanging by the side of the pagoda. The moment one lightly pushed them with his energy, the seven bells would ring consecutively. The ringing sound would then pull the cultivators into a mysterious state of cultivation.
Nonetheless, it could only be rung once every trillion years.
After being sounded once, the bells would no longer give out any sound even if one pushed them. One had to wait for a trillion years before the bells would regain its mysterious energy.
Those Great Emperors who cultivated their bloodline and even Supremes had once made a trade with 'Great Emperor Shamanic Wind' in exchange for a round of training! Cultivating in that state of mind, they would have a much easier time trying to comprehend their own bloodline.
'I feel that I have accumulated sufficiently in the Dao of Void. I have a supreme secret impartation guiding me, and I have even created five great killing techniques. I also experienced training in more than 500 sky-floating islands. If I were to enter closed-door cultivation now, I might be able to have a breakthrough,' Xue Ying thought. It would definitely be helpful for Xue Ying to enter closed–door cultivation in the number one supreme treasure for meditation in Broken Tooth Mountain Range.
'Time to visit Great Emperor Shamanic Wind!'
Xue Ying left behind an avatar at the Starlight Clan. At the same time, he secretly left for the 'Shaminic Wind World'.
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind was similarly a subordinate of Supreme Vast Ancient! His strength was comparable to the Great Sages of low-graded Chaotic Origin Lifeforms. But in a gambling match not too long ago, including him and two other Great Emperors, they had all lost to Great Emperor North River! They did not publicize their gambling match. If they really entered a life and death battle, it was hard to say who would win or lose since their strengths were quite similar.

Chapter 1233: Great Emperor Shamanic Wind
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
"Hu."
Xue Ying easily penetrated through the void. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the Shamanic Wind World.
Being the world of a Great Emperor, Shamanic Wind World had incredibly strict security. The moment Xue Ying entered this world, he did not even have the time to enjoy the view when he heard a furious roar.
"You actually dared to intrude the Shamanic Wind World!" A furious roar reverberated through the world.
A group of soldiers penetrated through the void before appearing where Xue Ying was. The leading soldier currently glared at Xue Ying.
"I'll have to trouble you to convey the word that I wish to see Great Emperor Shamanic Wind." Xue Ying said.
"Hmph, you still dare to be unreasonable! What kind of identity does the Great Emperor have? Do you think he is someone you can meet anytime you want?" The leading soldier retorted, "Hurry up and scram! It is still possible for us to spare your life. Otherwise, don't blame us for being merciless."
The identity of the Great Emperor was incredibly high.
They acted on the behalf of the Supremes in governing a large region! Many 'World Masters' of various worlds were usually unqualified from meeting the Great Emperor.
The aura of World Masters were at the initial Emperor level, yet they were not qualified to meet the Great Emperor. Xue Ying's aura was much weaker. Hence, why would these soldiers care about him?
"I am Monarch Flying Snow. I am here especially to meet Great Emperor Shamanic Wind." Xue Ying asked once again. Since he came to ask the other party for help, his attitude was naturally better. He reported his name, and hopefully, these soldiers would know about him.
"Monarch Flying Snow? What Monarch Flying Snow! What gall for you to dare call yourself a Monarch!" The leading soldier roared, "Soldiers, move out and bring him away!"
Xue Ying felt awkward at that moment.
It appeared the other party had never heard his name before?
He reckoned that the previous banquet would result in his name being spread practically to all people in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range.
But apparently, he was wrong!
His name did spread rapidly across those of the highest level in Broken Tooth Mountain Range. As for those who originated from the territory initially governed by 'Great Emperor Glorious Earth', since the invading army had retreated, those worlds would know of Xue Ying.
Nonetheless, other regions… if their statuses were sufficiently high, they would receive the news. For those who had a lower status, they actually did not know of Monarch Flying Snow!
There was also another reason!
Xue Ying came too quickly! He immediately came to pay Great Emperor Shamanic Wind a visit after receiving the World Masters. If there was a gap in between his visit, it was possible that his reputation would spread, and other experts at least of the 'King' level would know about him. But for now? This news had not spread out among those at a weaker level!
"Hong."
When the leading soldier gave the order, the other soldiers immediately moved.
"Hold!"
A terrifying ripple descended. That came from an Emperor. One could see a green-robed lady walking out from the void. The terrifying power from her had engulfed that group of soldiers.
"God General Aviary Feather." These soldiers who startled and immediately greeted when they saw a god general. Even though Great Emperor Shamanic Wind did not have as many god generals as Great Emperor North River had–he had a total of eight! But Great Emperor Shamanic Wind trusted them, and these god generals had great power.
"Greetings Monarch Flying Snow." The green-robed girl bowed with a smile at Xue Ying," These patrols have yet to hear of Monarch's name. I hope for Monarch to forgive their ignorance."
The other soldiers were dumbstruck when they saw that.
God General Aviary Feather actually treated this white-robed young man with such great politeness?
"Why aren't you apologizing to the Monarch!" The green-robed lady reprimanded the soldiers.
These soldiers were at a loss. Few Natives dared to call themselves Monarchs. Where did this Monarch Flying Snow come from?
Even though they did not understand what was happening in their hearts, they still bowed respectfully: "Please forgive us, Monarch!"
"I can't blame you for this." Xue Ying chuckled. After gaining the gratitude of so many World Masters, he thought his name had spread across all Natives.
"The Emperor is incredibly delighted that Monarch Flying Snow has arrived at our Shamanic Wind World. He sent me to welcome you. Who would have thought that an accident had almost happened with these patrols." The green-robed girl enthusiastically said, "Monarch, please."
"Please."
Both parties immediately broke through the void and headed towards the Shamanic Wind God Palace.
Leaving behind those soldiers who were still at a loss.
"Monarch Flying Snow? Which monarch is this? There are a total of eight Monarchs under the two Supremes, but never have we heard of one called Monarch Flying Snow. We should have known about it if a new Great Emperor emerges."
"Nope, I have never heard of him either."
"But Madam God General treated him with such politeness. Even though we have never heard of him before, the Great Emperor still sent God General Aviary Feather over to personally welcome him."
"I'll ask general and see if he knows."
They began transmitting their questions around.
Those at the highest-level in Shamanic Wind World did know about it.
"What?"
"Some of the weaker god generals have fallen immediately before Monarch Flying Snow? Their lives are under the control of him?"
"Even the number two god general under Great Emperor North River, 'God General Skeletal Dragon', suffered from a huge loss of his power when fighting against Monarch Flying Snow. He was actually forced to escape before an ordinary World Master from the Starlight World?"
"Great Emperor North River has befriended this Monarch Flying Snow, and gave an order to give up on conquering all words that belonged to Great Emperor Glorious Earth originally?"
These soldiers could not help but be dumbstricken when they heard the news.
Great Emperor North River did not treat Great Emperor Shamanic Wind so politely. Hearing that Great Emperor North River even schemed to win the gambling match for the territories of Great Emperor Glorious Earth, yet he chose to give up those territories because of Monarch Flying Snow? That was madness!
"No matter what, his origin is huge." These soldiers understood this point. Ordinary Emperors would be swept by this Monarch easily. He was not someone they could offend.
Shamanic Wind God Palace.
"I've just heard the news regarding Monarch Flying Snow and is still lamenting about the fact that there is such an expert under this world who could cause Emperors to fall into an illusion. Yet who would have thought that Monarch is here to visit me. That is simply making me delighted." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind took the initiative to welcome Xue Ying.
"Great Emperor is being too polite." Xue Ying was also scrutinizing Great Emperor Shamanic Wind.
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind had a saber by his waist. His hair was draped over his shoulders, and his robes were loose. He seemed to be a casual and unconstrained person.
"Come come come, come and have a seat. Monarch came to our Broken Tooth Mountain Range from the Realm Heart Great Land. Even though you spent quite some time at the Starlight World, I believe you have yet to enjoy many of the unique delicacies and wines in Broken Tooth Mountain Range right?" Great Emperor Shamanic Wind passionately laughed. At this moment, many female servants brought over good food and wine. Great Emperor Shamanic Wind did not treat other Monarchs so politely even.
But it was clear his treatment towards Xue Ying was different.
Because he was competing with other Great Emperors! And Xue Ying was a cultivator, and only cared about his realm. He did not care about those items that were of help to the bloodline.
Previously, Great Emperor Shamanic Wind and other Monarchs were still worried that this 'Monarch Flying Snow' might have joined Great Emperor North River and be completely tied onto the ship of Great Emperor North River! Now that Monarch Flying Snow is here to visit him, it seems he should not have agreed to join the ship of Great Emperor North River.
One party had the heart to befriend another, and the other party had something to request for.
Naturally, both host and guest chatted happily.
"I wonder what Brother Flying Snow is here for? Do tell me about it." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind finally said.
"Great Emperor, we cultivators care more about our realms. I came this time with the hope of borrowing the Seven Bell Pagoda for cultivation." Xue Ying said, "I know that the Seven Bell Pagoda is publicly recognized as the 'number one supreme treasure for meditation and cultivation' in Broken Tooth Mountain Range. And after activating it, it could no longer be used for the next trillion years. I came this time to ask Great Emperor for help in this matter. Whatever matter Great Emperor has in mind, Great Emperor can tell me too."
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind chuckled when he heard that.
Even though the treasure could only be used once every trillion years…
In reality, he had consumed enough! Even if he used the treasure more, it would no longer be helpful to his bloodline. He usually used it for trading with others.
"This is a minor matter." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind chuckled, "As for my conditions, I do have a small request that I wish Brother Flying Snow could accept."
"Great Emperor do tell." Xue Ying let out a sigh of relief.
"I wish for Monarch to send a few avatars with me to Emperor Yan Island." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind said, "No matter if this matter ends in success or failure, Brother Flying Snow can use the Seven Bell Pagoda once it is done."
Xue Ying had gotten so much intelligence, so he naturally knew what place the Emperor Yan Island was.
Emperor Yan was one of the '13 Emperors' beneath the three Great Supremes of the Death Destruction Clan. They were comparable to the Great Emperors in strength! These 13 Emperors from the Death Destruction Clan had occupied the best few sky-floating islands in the entire Broken Tooth Mountain Range. They were incomparably huge and were filled with dangers. The ambient danger of the island was fine. Yet this 'Emperor Yan Island' was also the island with the most experts in the 13 Emperor sky-floating islands!
'With Monarch Flying Snow's help, I will no longer be afraid of being ambushed by a group of enemies.' Great Emperor Shamanic Wind was joyful in his heart. Previously, he had wanted to ask Monarch Flying Snow for help, yet this Monarch Flying Snow was asked over by Great Emperor North River already! In the blink of an eye, Monarch Flying Snow actually took the initiative to visit him! Since the other party had a request, he could simply ask the other party for help. Both parties could gain what they wished and this would end up in a win-win situation!

Chapter 1234: Entering Emperor Yan Island
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Xue Ying accepted without hesitation. Great Emperor Shamanic Wind was also happy with the outcome. They began planning in detail what they should do next.
"I understand."
"I know. Great Emperor can be rest assured." Xue Ying nodded while he listened.
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind explained the plan once through before reminding once again: "Finally, Brother Flying Snow, it is best if you conceal your aura and disguise your appearances. Your name should have already spread across the strongest experts in the Natives. Even though news spread relatively slowly within the Death Destruction Clan, Emperor Yan is ultimately one of the 13 top Emperors. It has also the most subordinates. Hence, its source of information is relatively quicker. Perhaps it might have heard of some news related to you. If it recognized you immediately, things might be troublesome since it could prepare for your arrival!"
"Alright. It will certainly be unable to recognize me." Xue Ying was filled with confidence. Ever since he created the number one killing technique using the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm, his skills of disguise had become very much profound. Even his body would exist as part of the illusion. Hence, he was definitely the person with the best disguising means in Realm Heart Great Land.
"I will have to make some preparations. Shall we set off tomorrow?" Both eyes of Great Emperor Shamanic Wind were emitting light.
"I can move out at any time." Xue Ying directly answered.
On the next day.
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind brought along five god generals and Xue Ying with him towards the 'Emperor Yan Island'. Great Emperor Shamanic Wind had too few god generals–a total of eight! He selected five god generals that were the strongest of them. Ultimately, Great Emperor Shamanic Wind relied on certain alluring terms or relationship with those god generals to make them willing to toil for him.
"We are at the Emperor Yan Island."
After teleporting over.
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind, Xue Ying, and the others stood at the void looking at the incomparably huge sky-floating island. A cold and dark aura could be felt congregating above the sky-floating island. This island was so big that it startled Xue Ying, and the reason was that this was his first time seeing such a huge island!
"After entering the Emperor Yan Island, we'll act according to the plan." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind said. He was mainly staring at the five god generals under him, "We can't afford to fail. If we fail just once, we would reveal Monarch Flying Snow, making Emperor Yan wary about him. Even if we could ask Monarch Flying Snow for help the next time, it might not be as easy."
"Monarch, please be rest assured."
"We'll act according to the orders of Monarch." The five god generals spent most of their time enjoying their freedom. But at this moment, they understood how important this task was. Great Emperor Shamanic Wind looked forward to obtaining that 'precious treasure', and it was only due to the rise of Monarch Flying Snow did he gain hope that it was possible to do so! The moment he failed, Great Emperor Shamanic Wind would definitely turn mad.
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind looked at Xue Ying: "In a while, we'll have to rely on Brother Flying Snow."
"We would still have to rely on Great Emperor and fellow god generals for the main combat." Xue Ying chuckled back.
"Without Monarch Flying Snow, we would only be forced out."
"Only with Monarch Flying Snow do we have the confidence."
The five god generals were straightforward. They did not show any signs of arrogance before Monarch Flying Snow. An expert who was undoubtedly the strongest in the 'Dao of Soul' across Realm Heart Great Land and Broken Tooth Mountain Range was something that would make even the five Great Supremes think twice! After all, the soul of an expert was still ultimately the root of one's existence!
"Move out." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind lightly ordered.
"Sou sou sou sou sou sou sou!"
The seven of them immediately charged downwards into the Emperor Yan Island. They also contacted against the cold and dark aura pervading Emperor Yan Island. The moment their bodies contacted the aura, Xue Ying could not help but tremble. This was a frosty feeling that pervaded entirely through his body! Even though his fleshy body was sufficiently strong, he still could not help but feel uncomfortable.
'This is indeed the Emperor Yan Island. In the entire Broken Tooth Mountain Range, it should be ranked in the top ten islands.' Xue Ying thought, 'Such an island would definitely have a tremendous amount of opportunities. But at the same time, it is incredibly dangerous. None in the history of Realm Heart Great Land could truly infiltrate the entire island.'
Emperor Yan was ranked middle in terms of personal strength between the 13 Emperors. Nonetheless, he was ranked first in terms of the overall organizational strength! He was the emperor with the most subordinates! Just by relying on the huge number of subordinates he had, he was able to scour through and occupy an incredible amount of treasures on this sky-floating island. At the same time, this island had strict security. It was certain for intruders to be discovered quickly. Given the strength of the cultivators in Realm Heart Great Land, even Emperor Summer could not break through the outermost sentries.
Penetrating through the fog-like dark aura, the seven of them felt their surroundings changing. They had arrived on the island.
The plants and trees on the Emperor Yan Island were all dark. They seemed distorted and monstrous!
"Proceed ahead."
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind did not hesitate. He immediately release an unseen force that covered the other six members of the exploration party, imbuing the group with a gale that allowed them to advance forward.
It was incredibly fast! Swordmaster could never compare with the speed Great Emperor Shamanic Wind was currently traveling at!
'This speed.' Xue Ying felt speechless. He was indeed the Great Emperor Shamanic Wind, the Great Emperor ranked top in terms of speed in the Natives. Nonetheless, the opponent this time, 'Emperor Yan', was similarly ranked in the top within the 13 Emperors with his speed.
The seven of them were wrapped like a bun.
This lump of wind did not seem to suffer from any hindrances as it traveled through the forest.
"Intruders!" The security of Emperor Yan Island was ultimately too strict. Just a few breaths later, Great Emperor Shamanic Wind, Xue Ying and the others had been discovered by a sentry.
"Elder, we discovered intruders." The sentry immediately reported upwards.
Being wrapped by the wind force, Xue Ying and the others were traveling at an unfathomable speed. It was so fast that Xue Ying could not discern his surroundings with his naked eyes. He could only rely on his domain to perceive his surroundings.
This was the strength of a Great Emperor! Great Emperor Shamanic Wind who was famous for his speed, could easily travel at speeds that Kings could not even discern clearly at all!
"Hong~"
A horrific ripple descended. This forceful wave exploded, destroying many trees in the surrounding region of spanning more than 50 million kilometers.
A towering giant covered in scales stood there with its hands raised aloft. It was currently carrying a huge hammer. Itts figure was so big that ordinary trees were merely at the height of his knee. This scaled giant opened its mouth, revealing its sharp teeth. It grinned, letting out a world-shaking laughter that rolled out in waves, causing the world to tremble: "Hahaha, isn't this Great Emperor Shamanic Wind? Previously, you have been forced out by us, battered and exhausted. Why aren't you learning from your lesson? Why are you here seeking to be beaten again? I urge you to scram! Otherwise, there is no need for my master Emperor Yan to act. Just the few of us Elders is sufficient to force you into an escape. I remembered you have been kicked fiercely on the butt by my brother, right? Hahaha…"
Xue Ying was startled when he saw that.
This scaled giant should be an elder responsible for the outer perimeter security of Emperor Yan Island! In terms of his strength, it felt so much stronger than the 'Emperor' that Xue Ying encountered on the very first sky-floating island he ventured in Broken Tooth Mountain Range. This was nothing out of the ordinary though since the other party was an elder of 'Emperor Yan', one of the 13 strongest Emperors.
"How impudent!"
"Arrogant!"
At that moment, there were god generals shouting back angrily!
Of the five god generals Great Emperor Shamanic Wind brought along, one of them spat out, "hong–"
A black flame vaguely glowing in violet light burst out immediately into the world. The surrounding trees that caught fire turn into nothingness instantaneously. The flames also engulfed that elder. At that moment, the scaled giant furiously moved the huge hammer in its hands. Nonetheless, the flame was shapeless. It easily wrapped around the giant, burning that scaled giant and causing him to howl in agony.
"I asked you to scram yet you don't? Then we shall wait and see!" The scaled giant did not think of just relying on itself to fight against Great Emperor Shamanic Wind. Its original intention was to chide this Great Emperor Shamanic Wind and ask him to scram! Even though Great Emperor Shamanic Wind had killed his way many times in history over, he had never succeeded in entering the core of the island.
The scaled giant teleported and disappeared from the vicinity.
The rules amongst the Natives were rigid.
But the internal regulations inside the Death Destruction Clan were laxer. Even the elders of the Emperor with the most subordinates, 'Emperor Yan', could meet it directly anytime.
Emperor Yan Palace.
This was a palace that mimicked the architecture of the Natives. This palace was constructed with the support from a huge mountain nearby, and was relatively big.
"Hu."
The scaled giant entered the palace. It took several steps before arriving within a desolate enormous hall. With a glance, it saw the seated Emperor Yan on a cold crystalline bed! Emperor Yan was slightly thin and seemingly shriveled. Its entire body was covered in a layer of scales. It also had a pair of scaled wings. The Emperor sat just like that on the crystalline bed with its claws laying against its knees, with its back slightly hunched and its scaly wings covering the upper half of its body. Its eyes were close as if it was deep asleep.
"Emperor Yan, that Great Emperor Shamanic Wind has come again!" The scaled giant immediately announced after entering the hall. His voice echoed across the palace, causing the place to shake slightly from it.

Chapter 1235: It's him, Monarch Flying Snow!
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
The eyelids of Emperor Yan twitched before it slowly opened its eyes. A pair of silver eyes stared at that scaled giant standing within the huge palace hall: "Shamanic Wind is here again?"
"Right. He brought along six subordinates. I showed myself to ask them out, yet this Great Emperor Shamanic Wind actually retaliated." The scaled giant muttered. He already recovered from the light burn he had.
Emperor Yan's control of this sky-floating island had already reached an incredibly high degree. By relying on the dark aura pervading across the island, Emperor Yan could easily perceive a 'thread of wind' moving at high speed. This thread of wind seemed gentle and silent, yet it was filled with great tyranny.
"Hmph." Emperor Yan lightly moved its claws.
It easily tore through the space and cause a projection on another location on the island to appear.
A lump of wind could be seen moving at high speed.
Within this lump of wind were Great Emperor Shamanic Wind, Xue Ying, and the five god generals. At this moment, Xue Ying had disguised his aura to be similar with that of the five god generals.
"He's here again! He really doesn't know when to give up." Emperor Yan frowned. A strand of killing aura could be seen forming from him. It was incredibly prideful. Even though it was ranked in the middle between the 13 Emperors, with the large number of experts it had, it was slightly disdainful of the other 12 Emperors! As a result, its status within the Death Destruction Clan was comparable to that of Great Emperor North River. Great Emperor North River also had 36 god generals beneath him! But Great Emperor North River was personally stronger–his strength was closest to that of a Supreme.
"I can't even kill him, and now he is here to torment me again." Emperor Yan felt frustrated.
"Everyone, come over!"
Emperor Yan directly shouted out.
The sound echoed by the ears of every elder in the sky-floating island.
"Sou sou sou sou sou sou…"
Many elders immediately rushed over after hearing the order from their Ancestor Yan. Even if they were asleep, these elders immediately awoke and came over.
It took some time! Ultimately, those elders that were asleep had to take more time.
"Mn." Emperor Yan looked downwards, "Everyone is here. I believe you can see that Great Emperor Shamanic Wind has intruded into my sky-floating island again!"
A total of 55 elders were gathered below. This was also all the elders Emperor Yan had. It's also because the experts from the Death Destruction Clan rarely left the island–most of them would usually train, sleep and eat! Even if they left the island, they would do so to 'eat' and to seize resources from others! Furthermore, being subordinates of Emperor Yan, without the permission given from Emperor Yan, they were not allowed to leave the island.
At this moment, they could see the projection in midair. Within that lump of wind were a total of seven experts including Great Emperor Shamanic Wind.
"This Great Emperor Shamanic Wind is truly shameless. Previously, he was forced to escape so disgracefully, yet he is here again."
"How many times has he been beaten by us?"
"It's just his 'Shamanic Wind' bloodline is incredibly good at survival. We have once asked Emperor Yi for help. Even when Ancestor Yan and Emperor Yi worked together with the group of us, we aren't able to kill him."
These elders were all relatively frustrated.
"It would be troublesome if we allow Shamanic Wind to reach my palace." Emperor Yan sat there ordering, "Elder Qi, let's use the old strategy. Bring 21 elders with you to obstruct Shamanic Wind. Set off at this moment!"
"Yes." A tall and thin black-skinned old man with wrinkles on his face said. This Elder Qi swept his gaze across, "Let us set off."
"Go."
"Let's see what new move does this Great Emperor Shamanic Wind have this time."
Of this group of 22 elders, some were humanoid and some were beastial. There were towering figures and short figures. One thing in common between them was their powerful and grand aura. All 55 elders under Emperor Yan had incredibly strong fleshy bodies. Because their fleshy bodies were strong, they could fight against most dangerous situations!
Hence, they were used to facing against Great Emperor Shamanic Wind already.
They would first send 22 elders with powerful fleshy bodies. Each elder was at the god general level. With so many working together, they could even face against a 'Supreme' for a period of time. Hence, they sufficed to get into a tangle with Great Emperor Shamanic Wind and his subordinates. They could rely on this to determine if Great Emperor Shamanic Wind had any new means of breaking through the security or not! Usually when Great Emperor Shamanic Wind dared to come, he would have some reliance.
"Hmph hmph hmph." Emperor Yan simply sat cross-legged at his crystalline bed watching the projection. His silver eyes were cold.
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind, Xue Ying, and the other five traveled for quite some time before the enemies appear.
"Hong long long~"
A total of 22 elders teleported at the same time. The surrounding World Energy had become chaotic consequently.
"Great Emperor Shamanic Wind, you still dare to come!"
"This time, what new move do you have?"
"Previously, I've kicked your butt once! Are you thinking of being trampled on again this time?"
"Hahaha, receive my axe!"
"Previously, I've eaten half the body of a god general. It was such a sumptuous meal! If you were slower by a split second, I would have just eaten that god general alive!"
These elders from the Death Destruction Clan immediately acted. As they specialized in different techniques, when they exerted their moves at the same time, the entire world became chaotic. It was like boiling porridge. All sorts of techniques came crashing on the other six experts standing next to Great Emperor Shamanic Wind! That's right. Even though they were scolding Great Emperor Shamanic Wind with their mouths, they still targeted their attacks away from Great Emperor Shamanic Wind.
Because they knew that attacking Great Emperor Shamanic Wind was simply pointless! Only by killing a god general under Great Emperor Shamanic Wind would they be able to incite pain in Great Emperor Shamanic Wind.
"Hmph."
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind took the initiative to retaliate.
His left hand slightly beckoned ahead of him. At that moment, the world that had turned into boiling porridge, became engulfed in a fierce air current. This air current was present everywhere and easily wrapped around those elders from the Death Destruction Clan. Each elder had been restricted from the large amount of current, forcing their strength to suffer from a decline.
If one carefully distinguished, one could see that each strand of air current is actually formed from the twisting of a trillion micro-threads. These threads could easily cut the bodies of unparalleled cultivators.
Nonetheless, this domain technique could merely restrict these elders. With this technique, these elders would merely lose about 10% to 20% of their strength. They simply disregarded the technique and killed their way over. The five god generals under Great Emperor Shamanic Wind acted at the same time. Great Emperor Shamanic Wind personally unsheathed the saber by his waist. This saber turned into a gale that crashed down on those elders.
"Brother Flying Snow, it is time for you to act." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind turned to Xue Ying by the side.
"Alright." Xue Ying chuckled. He had already been prepared.
Xue Ying then turned to the 22 elders that were currently being fighting with Great Emperor Shamanic Wind and his subordinates.
"Weng–"
Mirage and Illusory Realm, descend!
This number one killing technique of the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm was about dragging a sentient being into a world filled with his strongest desire. It was to the extent that the target could not 'differentiate the illusion from the truth'! When Xue Ying created this Mirage and Illusory Realm, it was to a certain extent, filled with partial truths! If he were willing to pay the price, he could easily pull any sentient being within the illusion out into reality.
These 22 elders were originally battling madly. Yet when this terrifying Mirage and Illusory Realm enticed and pulled their souls in, there were elders falling into the illusion one after another.
In an instant.
A total of seven elders fell for the illusion! 11 elders were barely maintaining their consciousness with just 10% to 20% their strength remaining! Only four of them could maintain 30% of their original strength. Naturally, these four did not have a will power stronger than God General Skeletal Dragon. Instead, the fleshy bodies of members from the Death Destruction Clan were typically strong. This batch of elders had an even stronger fleshy body that did not require the elders to consume much heart force in controlling them. Hence, these four existences could maintain 30% of their original strength!
In reality, the universal will of the elders under Emperor Yan were slightly weaker than the 36 god generals under Great Emperor North River.
"Receive!" Great Emperor Shamanic Wind who was already prepared immediately captured the elders.
The seven who fell prey for the technique were the easiest. They were simply captured.
As for the 11 elders that were left with just 10% to 20% of their strength, the gap between them and Great Emperor Shamanic Wind was too great! Hence, under the domain of Great Emperor Shamanic Wind, he easily captured those elders that were restricted by the air current easily without them retaliating.
In the blink of an eye, 18 elders were completely captured.
As for the remaining four who could still maintain 30% of their strength, Great Emperor Shamanic Wind had to strike out once at each elder! The blade lights were perfected. They easily trapped each elder from the Death Destruction Clan. Those elders from the Death Destruction Clan could not even escape by dissipating their bodies since the endless wind had trapped the deepest core of their bodies. Similarly, with a strike on each elder, they were all captured alive!
Emperor Yan sat on his crystalline blade. His silver eyes were paying close attention to the projection in midair.
The other 30 over elders were also closely observing the battle. They wanted to see what new move did Great Emperor Shamanic Wind have. Only by understanding the situation better could they decide on a more informed action to take.
"What?" Emperor Yan's original calm expression abruptly became shocked. It looked with disbelief as everything happened within the projection.
All 18 elders were captured instantaneously.
The remaining four were also captured after one blade! The blades sent out by Great Emperor Shamanic Wind were too fast. Emperor Yan did not have sufficient time to react when all elders sent this time were captured.
"This, how could this be…" Emperor Yan felt his heart trembling. It had never met such a situation before. Even when it faced 'Supremes', it had never fallen into such a despondent situation.
"Ancestor Yan, I know! I know! That white-robed young man is definitely the rumored Monarch Flying Snow! It must be him! It's him, Monarch Flying Snow!" One of the 30 over elders below, one with a humanoid head and beastial body let out a sharp and shrill sound with terror.
The original quiet palace hall was filled with the sharp shouts from this elder 'it must be him! It's him, Monarch Flying Snow', which echoed in the hall.
Emperor Yan turned to this elder shouting angrily: "Hurry up and tell me who this Monarch Flying Snow is! Why have I never heard of him before?"

Chapter 1236: Emperor Yan and Monarch Flying Snow
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Within the dark palace hall, Emperor Yan and other elders were staring at this elder with a human head and beastial body. This elder was startled by its outburst and immediately knelt down on all four hooves, respectfully saying: "Ancestor Yan, just a few days ago when I was asleep, I sent my incarnation to meet my Brother Russ. When I was chatting with Brother Russ, Russ mentioned about an amazing Monarch Flying Snow appearing within the Natives. I've heard that his soul technique could even cause Emperors to fall into oblivion. He also mentioned that Monarch Flying Snow is a cultivator from the Realm Heart Great Land. But Russ felt that this could not possibly be true, and I concurred with him that this could possibly be rumors. When were cultivators from the Realm Heart Great Land so powerful? But just now, a group of elders have actually fallen completely into deep sleep, leaving behind just a few elders whose strength have diminished to the extent that they were easily captured. Hence, the first person I thought of is this Monarch Flying Snow."
"Why did you not tell me this?" Emperor Yan gritted his teeth. At the same time, he revealed his fags.
This elder slightly panicked, adding: "Previously, I thought it was just rumors. And Ancestor Yan was cultivating. Since it was not an important matter, I did not dare to disturb Ancestor too."
Emperor Yan became silent.
Information traveled relatively slowly within the Death Destruction Clan. In addition, there was a distinct difference between them and the Natives. Hence, they were unable to infiltrate into the Natives. The personality of members from the Death Destruction Clan was not too suitable to become spies either! Even though Emperor Yan had many experts under him, and he was well-informed, this was only true on a relative basis! Great Emperor Shamanic Wind could not fail this time since this was the only time he was closest to success. That was why he requested for Xue Ying to alter his appearance and aura. In reality, Great Emperor Shamanic Wind felt that Emperor Yan… should not know of the existence of 'Monarch Flying Snow' either.
'Where did this Monarch Flying Snow appear from?' Emperor Yan pondered.
Its total power was ranked first between the 13 Emperors!
And what it relied on was the group of elders under him. But now, a total of 22 elders were captured alive! Emperor Yan became panicked when he thought of the drastic reduction of his power.
'A cultivator that came from the Realm Heart Great Land could actually execute a soul technique that would even cause Emperors to fall into oblivion? Furthermore, judging from previously, only a minority of the elders have directly fallen asleep. The majority could still move and exert some strength.' Emperor Yan thought, 'If it were me, I should still be left with much of my strength.'
His subordinates could still maintain 30% of their strength.
It estimated that it should be able to maintain at 50% of its strength. With 50% of its strength, it was 100% confident of escaping from Great Emperor Shamanic Wind! After all, this was the sky-floating island and it could easily teleport and escape.
"All five elders of the forbidden ground, follow me." Emperor Yan raised.
"Yes."
The five elders with the strongest aura respectfully acknowledged. They were also the strongest five subordinates Emperor Yan had.
"Sou sou sou sou sou sou…"
Emperor Yan and the other five elders transformed into streams of light that shot out of the palace hall and through the void towards the direction where Great Emperor Shamanic Wind was.
This team of Great Emperor Shamanic Wind, Xue Ying and others captured a total of 22 elders. They were grinning from ear to ear. It appeared that they had succeeded in half the plan!
"As long as Emperor Yan is slightly intelligent, we would have successfully completed our task. Even if he is foolish and plans on continuing to resist, losing 22 elders that have incredibly strong fleshy bodies would mean the remaining few elders aren't able to resist against Brother Flying Snow's soul technique. Only the five elders from the forbidden ground are slightly harder to deal with. But we have a large chance of success even if we killed out way in." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind grinned. He had waited far too long for this day.
Xue Ying smiled by the side. He remained calm.
He came this time to conduct a trade. What he cared more was to obtain the chance of cultivating within the 'Seven Bell Pagoda' so as to break through to the final realm in one fell swoop!
As for the Death Destruction Clan?
Honestly speaking, the three Great Supremes of the Death Destruction Clan were all incredibly huge devils. The 13 Emperors, other than one who was slightly more low-profile and rarely acted outside its island, which of the 12 Emperors had not killed countless others? Devoured countless Natives?
'The Death Destruction Clan feels very similar to the Destruction Devils. They are born to kill and devour others. The only difference is that the Destruction Devils are emissaries formed by the Supreme Law to carry out destruction in a single era.' Xue Ying thought, 'As for the Death Destruction Clan, 99% of the members are less intelligent and would rarely leave the sky-floating islands. As for the experts of the Death Destruction Clan, their intelligence is quite high. They have huge ambitions, and the moment they left the sky-floating islands, they would definitely be devouring others.'
Comparatively speaking, the Natives were relatively ordinary. They reproduced via normal human means. They had emotions and were relatively similar to cultivators.
The Death Destruction Clan was naturally formed by the sky-floating islands.
"They are here."
"They have come."
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind, Xue Ying, and the other five god generals looked ahead of them.
A total of six figures appeared.
The leading figure was thin. Its body was filled with scales. At this moment, its wings had unfolded and it was shockingly huge! It was so much bigger than even the five other elders from the forbidden ground, and it seemed these elders were merely one-thousandth the size of the wings.
Emperor Yan unfolded its wings, sweeping its pair of silver eyes across Great Emperor Shamanic Wind before landing on Xue Ying.
"Is this Monarch Flying Snow?" The first words spoken by Emperor Yan were directed at Monarch Flying Snow.
"Have you heard of Brother Flying Snow's name?" On the contrary, Great Emperor Shamanic Wind was startled. He rejoiced inwardly for he had asked Xue Ying to alter his appearance and aura.
Xue Ying no longer maintained his disguise at this moment. He released his ordinary aura, and regained his usual white-robed young man look which he had in the Realm Heart Great Land. At the same time, he chuckled: "Others say that news spread slowly within the Death Destruction Clan. Who would have guessed that Emperor Yan actually knows of my name."
"It was one of my elders that heard of your name, Monarch Flying Snow." Emperor Yan couldn't care less about Great Emperor Shamanic Wind. Instead, he continued looking at Xue Ying: "It originally thought that the news about Monarch Flying Snow are just rumors. Only after seeing Monarch Flying Snow's strength did it realize that everything is real! My defeat this time to Monarch Flying Snow isn't an injustice at all."
"Have you admitted your defeat?" Great Emperor Shamanic Wind chuckled.
"Shamanic Wind, you have failed how many times before this? And I did not lose to you this time. Instead, I lost to Monarch Flying Snow." Emperor Yan said, "For him to have the capabilities of causing even Emperors to fall into oblivion, he is definitely the first to do so in the history of Realm Heart Great Land and Broken Tooth Mountain Range! It is very normal for me to lose to such an expert."
Xue Ying was incredibly astonished.
This was still the first time he met someone from the Death Destruction Clan who could speak so fluently and logically!
"Monarch Flying Snow, why are you helping Shamanic Wind? In terms of treasures, my Death Destruction Clan have the most. We are a clan that is born on the sky-floating islands." Emperor Yan said, "If you come and help me, I can get you any treasure you seek. How about that?"
"Trying to rope me in?" Xue Ying was even more surprised at this moment.
The personality of those from the Death Destruction Clan, even if the higher-ups had greater intelligence, most were not willing to compromise, much less taking the initiative in roping another party in.
Emperor Yan was an oddity.
But it seemed the intelligence was true! Emperor Yan was an exceptional case. It preferred to have other Emperors from the Death Destruction Clan work for it and become its elders! Of course, one of the reasons was because its 'blood' was greatly useful to the other elders. But on the other hand, it knew how to make use of its advantages.
Hence, it was able to become the strongest among the 13 Emperors.
"What Brother Flying Snow requires is something you don't own." The expression of Great Emperor Shamanic Wind slightly changed. He was afraid of Xue Ying accepting the other party.
"What do cultivators need?" Emperor Yan looked at Xue Ying, "I've heard that you cultivators cared most for supreme-graded secret treasures and on the cultivation of the realm? Haha, I have a good friend who has a piece of supreme-graded secret treasure! I could even think of ways to help you acquire one or two pieces more. Everything can be given to you freely! As for your cultivation of the realm, any external materials you need can be duly discussed."
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind's expression truly changed when he heard that.
"Help me? How about that? You are a cultivator and aren't part of the Natives. Helping Great Emperor Shamanic Wind is similar to helping me." Emperor Yan unfolded its enormous wings. It spoke with incredibly politeness. Clearly, it favored this Monarch Flying Snow incredibly.
"I would have to say my apologies to Emperor Yan." Xue Ying answered.
At that moment, a drastic transformation could be seen happening on the expression of Emperor Yan. Its eyes had become much colder.

Chapter 1237: Entering Closed-Door Cultivation
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Being rejected by Xue Ying, Emperor Yan felt both disappointed and frustrated. On the contrary, Great Emperor Shamanic Wind revealed a joyous look. He knew that victory was almost in his grasp since Xue Ying agreed to stand on his side! Unless Emperor Yan decided for a life and death struggle.
"Why do you help him instead of me?" Emperor Yan's silver eyes stared coldly at Xue Ying. It was suppressing its anger, "I'll do my best to get you everything you want."
"Emperor Yan, it is best to stop struggling anymore." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind sneered, "Since Brother Flying Snow chose not to help you, you should not make things difficult for him either."
Xue Ying stood by the side with a calm look.
And Emperor Yan understood that it was impossible to change the mind of the other party.
"Have you made your decision?" At this moment, Great Emperor Shamanic Wind was feeling incredibly happy. Other than the excitement he had from the fact that he was about to get the treasure he sought, he was also revelling in the feeling of forcing Emperor Yan to lower its head! He had fought with Emperor Yan for far too long, and had been defeated so many times by the other party. Nonetheless, he could finally suppress Emperor Yan today! Forcing Emperor Yan to make a decision! That itself was making Great Emperor Shamanic Wind exuberant.
"Decision?" Emperor Yan folded its scaled wings, wrapping it around its body. Its silver eyes stared at Great Emperor Shamanic Wind.
"If you want to act, that's fine too!" The eyes of Great Emperor Shamanic Wind revealed signs of madness. He placed his hand by the scabbard on his waist, "I do want to see how many elders do you have left alive after this battle, Emperor Yan! I can at least ensure that all the elders that have been captured alive by me will die. And most likely your ranking within the 13 Emperors will droplet after this battle."
Emperor Yan became silent for a while. Only then did it ask: "How much do want?"
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind chuckled. His laughter was exceptionally bright: "Not much. Since I captured 22 elders, I only need 22 droplets!"
"Are you mad?" The expression of Emperor Yan shifted, "22 droplets? Do you know how long it takes for a droplet of 'Streaming Light Spiritual Milk' to condense?"
"I am not mad."
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind said, "Over the long years, Emperor Yan should be able to take out 22 droplets right? If you give them to me, we'll leave. We will also return all the captured elders back to you."
"Nine droplets at most!" Emperor Yan gritted, "At the worst, we'll just fight! We from the Death Destruction Clan can easily teleport on the sky-floating island. You can't chase up to us. By then, you can't even get a single droplet of Streaming Light Spiritual Milk!"
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind became cold: "Then half your elders will have to die! As for the Streaming Light Spiritual Milk, I'll simply destroy the spirit lake producing the spiritual milk as well as some other treasure grounds on this island! I'll simply wreck the whole place apart!"
Emperor Yan became even more frustrated.
"I'll take a step back. 20 droplets! There can not be a single droplet less!" Great Emperor Shamanic Wind deliberately took a step back. In reality, he was giving a way out for the other party without losing any much.
Emperor Yan's expression was ugly. It looked at Xue Ying by the side. It knew that the outcome would be dire if they truly fought. Emperor Yan looked at Xue Ying, murmuring: "Monarch Flying Snow, can you guarantee that you will not help Great Emperor Shamanic Wind anymore in snatching my treasures once I give fork out 20 droplets of Streaming Light Spiritual Milk this time?"
"Be rest assured. There is only the Streaming Light Spiritual Milk on your sky-floating island that I regard highly. I can guarantee that I'll not return here anymore." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind said. At the same time, he transmitted it to Xue Ying.
"Yes, I can guarantee that." Xue Ying nodded.
Emperor Yan nodded slightly.
Monarch Flying Snow and Great Emperor Shamanic Wind had extraordinary reputation. They would not easily go against the words they just said.
"Alright." Emperor Yan glanced at Great Emperor Shamanic Wind, "Shamanic Wind, I can only say that you are lucky for being able to employ the help of Monarch Flying Snow. Otherwise, it is impossible for you to obtain these 20 droplets of Streaming Light Spiritual Milk."
Previously, just for a droplet of Streaming Light Spiritual Milk, Emperor Yan underwent a trade with Great Emperor Shamanic Wind that squeezed almost all treasures of Great Emperor Shamanic Wind dry!
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind could not accept that at all!
One could not blame Emperor Yan for asking such exorbitant price. Amongst the strongest experts in the entire Broken Tooth Mountain Range, the Streaming Light Spiritual Milk was exceptionally miraculous to 'Great Emperor Shamanic Wind's Shamanic Wind Bloodline. It was less attractive to other Great Emperors. Of course, to most Emperors, it was still greatly helpful! The elders of Emperor Yan could earn a droplet of the spiritual milk whenever they contributed greatly.
"Sou sou sou…" Emperor Yan waved its claws, causing many bottles to fly out. A total of 20 bottles could be seen flying over, "Every bottle contains a droplet of Streaming Light Spiritual Milk."
The five elders from the forbidden ground standing behind Emperor Yan were slightly indignant when they saw that.
The five of them had only gotten two droplets since the beginning!
And now, their commander–the leader of the 13 Emperors, 'Emperor Yan', was actually forced to lower its head and hand over 20 droplets of Streaming Light Spiritual Milk. This was an absolute humiliation to them!
"I've finally gotten it." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind waved his hand, causing the 20 bottles to arrive before him. He immediately uncorked them and checked through them. As he examined the items, his eyes were twinkling! He had been looking forward to this for far too long!
"Haha, Emperor Yan, I am truly happy for what I have gotten today. I am not a stingy person either." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind guffawed. He immediately released the captured 22 elders.
"It is time for you to leave now that you have gotten the Streaming Light Spiritual Milk." Emperor Yan looked at him coldly.
"Go go go! It seems Emperor Yan isn't feeling too happy now so it's best that we don't stay here." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind grinned from ear to ear, "Brother Flying Snow, let us set off."
"Sou–"
The group of seven was immediately wrapped by a lump of wind which left the place.
Emperor Yan watched silently. The five elders from the forbidden ground and the 22 newly-released elders were silent too.
This time, they had been disgraced!
Of the entire Death Destruction Clan, Emperor Yan's status was second only to the three Great Supremes! Yet he was actually forced to lower his head and hand over the treasures.
"Ancestor Yan, you could simply teleport and leave this place without heeding to their threats. But because of us…"
"If not for Ancestor Yan, we would have been killed by Great Emperor Shamanic Wind."
These elders were saying as a way of expressing their gratitude. At the same time, they were flattering Emperor Yan too.
After all, the reason why they had been loyal to Emperor Yan, and even call him 'Ancestor Yan' was primarily because of the 'bloodline' of Emperor Yan which was helpful to most of them. That was why they were so loyal.
"There is no need to say much. I'm afraid that Shamanic Wind would most likely spread news of this disgraceful event out not too long from now, and the entire Broken Tooth Mountain Range will soon know about it." Emperor Yan coldly said, "But I wasn't defeated in the hands of Shamanic Wind. Instead, I lost in the hands of Monarch Flying Snow!"
Saying that, Emperor Yan teleported away.
The remaining five elders from the forbidden ground and 22 elders exchanged glances. They knew Emperor Yan was not feeling well. Hence, they all obediently left the place.
Nonetheless, they did not have any signs of 'taking revenge'! Because that Monarch Flying Snow was truly frightening! Those who were weaker amongst them would simply fall asleep before the other party! And those that were stronger would become greatly weakened, be trampled on easily before being captured alive.
Shamanic Wind World.
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind returned with great excitement. He even passed a lot of treasures to Xue Ying to express his gratitude and to maintain good relation between them! Because an expert in the Dao of Soul who could greatly cause their strength to diminish, would be someone who could influence the overall outcome of battles.
"This is the Seven Bell Pagoda."
Great Emperor Shamanic Wind, Xue Ying and the eight god generals before the pagoda.
Each pagoda floor of the Seven Bell Pagoda was ordinary. And hanging by the side of the pagoda were seven bells that did not make it seem any special.
"Brother Flying Snow, after you enter, simply control your energy to push one of the bells. The seven bells would ring one after another, and that would guide Brother Flying Snow into a special cultivation state." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind explained, "You can only send an avatar in."
"I know. Many thanks, Great Emperor." Xue Ying could no longer wait.
"Haha, it is I who should thank Brother Flying Snow for your help." Great Emperor Shamanic Wind chuckled.
"Hua."
One could see Xue Ying immediately forming an avatar that walked into the Seven Bell Pagoda. The soul strength of this avatar was even increasing! It kept increasing until it reached a peak perfection state. Nonetheless, at the same time, many other avatars that Xue Ying brought along became weaker in their souls. This was due to the restriction from the unseen laws.
Currently, in Realm Heart Great Land, of the many avatars Xue Ying had, the avatar that was protecting Flying Snow City, the one cultivating underneath the Burning Heart God Tree, and this new avatar that was proceeding into the Seven Bell Pagoda had their souls maintained at the perfect peak.
The other avatars that were fighting outside only had a soul strength that reached 70% at the highest! This was sufficient. Due to the fusion with the core blood of Myriad Tentacles Dragon Mother, Xue Ying's soul was exceptionally powerful. Even if it was at 70% of his maximum soul strength, the Mirage and Illusory Realm killing technique could be easily executed. He even had the strength to use other moves.
Within the pagoda.
Xue Ying immediately discovered how special it was after entering. The internal structure seemed incredibly mysterious. Every single square beam was constructed in a diverse manner. Just as he sat down, Xue Ying immediately began relaxing his mind. It seemed as if the restriction of the fleshy body on his soul had reduced.
'Seven Bell Pagoda is also called the 'number one supreme treasure for meditation and cultivation'. Let's see how mysterious it is.' With a thought, Xue Ying controlled the void to push one of the hanging little bells.
"Ding ding dang dang~" A beautiful ringing sound could be heard

Chapter 1238: The Urgent Undying Underworld Emperor
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
The moment Xue Ying heard this ringing sound, he felt it beautiful.
But gradually as other ringing sounds consecutively resonated, with the different sounds reverberating in the unique structure of the pagoda, it produced a special ripple that influenced Xue Ying's soul. At this moment, Xue Ying's soul was guided into a unique state.
"Hu~"
Silence!
His soul had never felt this quiet before. It was like the emergence of an unseen ripple that spread over his soul, wrapping around it so as to maintain the silence.
'How can a soul be this quiet?'
It felt like he entered a boundless darkness. Everything he knew had disappeared. All laws and myriad existences were no longer present! This kind of darkness and silence had permeated through every single part of his soul. It felt so quiet as if his soul had entered a void. At this moment, there was only the soul and his existence! With a thought, he could easily perceive his fleshy body.
His current perception of the fleshy body had reached an unprecedented level. It felt like his body was a limitless land.
'It seems the experts of the Natives relied on this Seven Bell Pagoda to research the bloodline in their fleshy bodies?' There was no need for Xue Ying to conduct any research because the evolution of his body relied completely on his understanding of the laws. It was unlike that of the Natives who had traces of Chaotic Origin Lifeform bloodlines in their bodies. They could simply cultivate their bloodline and they would be able to wield unfathomable strength.
'I shall forsake my fleshy body for now.'
With a thought.
His soul that was at an unprecedented peace easily isolated the perception of his fleshy body.
This isolation resulted in his soul entering a 'true' darkness. There was nothing in this darkness! Even his fleshy body did not exist!
But amidst this extreme silence, the comprehension speed of his soul had become truly 'activate'!
'I have never felt so comfortable before. It feels like my soul is not restricted by anything, and all potential has been dug out.'
'I should focus on cultivating the Dao of Void.'
Large amounts of profound mysteries regarding the Dao of Void began appearing. Xue Ying began his deduction, causing different kinds of weird ideas to appear. His cultivation speed was much faster than what he could achieve during ordinary times. It felt as if his soul was suppressed by the laws and his fleshy body during normal cultivation. There was simply too much influence holding back his cultivation! And this was the first time he felt such immense efficiency in cultivation.
'This feeling is amazing!'
He sighed inwardly.
Following that, using his incredibly active thinking, he rapidly researched into the Dao of Void.
He had already created five great killing techniques from the Dao of Void. With huge amounts of accumulations and some opportunities that he experienced after exploring more than 500 sky-floating islands, at this moment, everything appeared and began clashing in his mind…
And without suffering from any restrictions, his thinking continued mutating in many different directions, rapidly moving down all these possible paths.
Outside the pagoda.
Xue Ying, Great Emperor Shamanic Wind, and the eight god generals were here.
"It feels wondrous right?" Great Emperor Shamanic Wind looked at Xue Ying.
"It is amazing!" Xue Ying revealed a complex look. The avatar that was cultivating in the pagoda naturally had his memories linked to all other avatars. It was precisely because of that which made the experience exceptionally unique.
This avatar cultivating in the Seven Bell Pagoda had reached another 'dimension' in his soul and comprehension ability. At that dimension, his thinking was incredibly active, and his soul did not suffer from any restrictions. Hence, he cultivated very quickly at that state.
As for the other avatars Xue Ying had, they seemed to be situated at one dimension lower!
Even though the memories of his avatars were interchangeable, the thinking of other avatars was clearly falling behind.
"There is even such a supreme treasure in the world." Xue Ying looked at the Seven Bell Pagoda with bright eyes. In the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, the Natives simply used the Seven Bell Pagoda to experience the bloodline in their bodies. But to cultivators, this support would be way more than that! It felt as if some kind of shackle had been removed, digging out all theoretical innate potential he had.
"Haha, Brother Flying Snow, where are you planning to go next?" Great Emperor Shamanic Wind chuckled, "If there is anything you need my help, you can just tell me."
"There is something I have to do but I don't require Great Emperor to act." Xue Ying looked to an armored god general to the side, "God General Stone Light, I plan on exploring more sky-floating islands. Some Emperors from the Death Destruction Clan on those islands could resist my illusory realm technique. Even though they are just left with 10% to 20% of their original strength, that is still something I can't handle. I will need the help of God General Stone Light. You can of course select any treasures on the island."
"Why is there any need to trouble Big Brother Stone Light for such matters! I can come!"
"Monarch Flying Snow, I can do it as well! With you around, I am confident of dealing with any of the 13 Emperors."
"How can we let Big Brother Stone Light occupy such a good matter!"
At that moment, the other god generals all volunteered themselves.
They were slightly envious and jealous.
Firstly, accompanying Monarch Flying Snow to the sky-floating islands was an absolutely beneficial matter which they were dreaming for! With Monarch Flying Snow around, the only members from the Death Destruction Clan that they were terrified of were just the three Great Supremes. They did not care about any other existences. Furthermore, didn't Monarch Flying Snow mention 'you can select any treasures'? Even though they were god generals, they still coveted treasures on the sky-floating islands, albeit they were not confident of getting those treasures by themselves.
Secondly, by adventuring together, they would naturally become closer!
This was a great opportunity to befriend Monarch Flying Snow! It was worth it even if they did not take any treasures! With a good friend like Monarch Flying Snow, there would be practically nobody who dared to become enemies with them in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range.
"Monarch Flying Snow asked me for help! So you guys better not snatch my role away." God General Stone Light roared, "Why, you plan on competing to see who gets the job?"
Xue Ying chuckled.
He felt that it sufficed for a god general to help. Furthermore, these were all subordinates of Great Emperor Shamanic Wind. He could not possibly bring them all away right?
And in terms of strength, God General Stone Light was ranked first amongst the eight god generals!
Hence, in the following days, Xue Ying brought along God General Stone Light to explore the sky-floating islands. With sufficiently detailed intelligence, he naturally visited those islands where there were mysterious eyes.
He planned on memorizing more of the internal illusory realm structures of those mysterious eyes.
Even though he had created the number one killing technique using the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm, since these mysterious eyes were vastly useful to him, it would be better for him to memorize more of them! This would then smoothen his journey of reaching the 'final realm' for the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm.
And in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range.
A piece of news had begun spreading.
With the help from 'Monarch Flying Snow', Great Emperor Shamanic Wind killed his way into Emperor Yan Island before capturing 22 elders alive. In the end, he forced Emperor Yan to hand over the Streaming Light Spiritual Milk. This news was spreading like wildfire! Great Emperor Shamanic Wind was even fanning the flames on this news since he wanted to let everyone know that his relationship with Monarch Flying Snow is great! At the same time, he was relying on this to vent his frustration!
He had been defeated in the hands of Emperor Yan for far too many times. This time, he was able to finally force Emperor Yan to lower its head. Such a matter was something he naturally had to let everyone in Broken Tooth Mountain Range know about! Otherwise, how could he get his dose of delight by keeping things mum?
"This Monarch Flying Snow is truly influential."
"Emperor Yan is forced to lower its head even in its sky-floating island?"
"He captured 22 elders alive? It seems god generals are useless in numbers before this monarch."
Various parties were discussing about it.
And the name of Xue Ying was becoming more well-known. The three Great Supremes from the Death Destruction Clan and the two Great Supremes from the Natives were also paying attention to this Monarch Flying Snow!
As this news spread, it naturally reached the ears of cultivators in Realm Heart Great Land.
Those like Emperor Summer and Undying Underworld Emperor paid close attention to the Broken Tooth Mountain Range. They would usually try to obtain intelligence regarding some of the Natives.
Especially 'Undying Underworld Emperor' since he had entered the Broken Tooth Mountain Range many times after failing his task of becoming a Chaotic Origin Lifeform. This time, he was the first to know about the matter among unparalleled existences regarding 'Monarch Flying Snow'.
"What? Are you sure what you said is real?" The handsome young man wearing a gray robe uttered with disbelief.
When he was in Broken Tooth Mountain Range, he would usually wear a crown and luxurious gold robe. Nonetheless, Undying Underworld Emperor would maintain low-profile in Broken Tooth Mountain Range, choosing to don on a gray robe instead.
No other choice.
He was not qualified to be arrogant among the Natives. More importantly, he did not have avatars like Xue Ying or Emperor Summer!
"It is naturally real! The news has already spread for a few days." A plump old man was drinking opposite of him, saying, "Underworld Emperor, did you not say you are the strongest expert in Realm Heart Great Land? Why do I feel that you are much weaker than Monarch Flying Snow? Before Monarch Flying Snow, most Emperors would simply fall. Some god generals were even trembling with fear and trepidation before him. Even Great Emperors were competing to befriend this Monarch! I don't think the five Great Supremes dare to neglect this matter either."
Undying Underworld Emperor became silent.
Envy?
He was indeed filled with slight envy. If he had such a high status in Broken Tooth Mountain Range, he would have a much easier time handling things.
Other than envy, he was also slightly anxious!
'Has he cultivated his Mirage and Illusory Realm to this stage already? There are a few in the entire Realm Heart Great Land who has cultivated to level-two Cosmos God Realm in the Dao of Soul. But none of them is ever this frightening. Unless he has cultivated to the final realm? Or he has some supreme secret impartation?' Undying Underworld Emperor started panicking. He did not know that there had never been an existence who reached the final realm in the Dao of Soul. Naturally, a supreme secret impartation would not exist as a result.
'Since he could cause even Emperors to fall, then I would have to fork out quite a huge amount of heart force even if we final realm cultivators could resist against his Mirage and Illusory Realm.' Undying Underworld Emperor thought. The Heart Realms of cultivators were incredible. But they would most likely only be comparable to the five Great Supremes in terms of their abilities to resist the power from the Mirage and Illusory Realm. Hence, it was certain for them to be weakened before such a technique.
'What should I do?'
'He has many avatars. He could even get responses en masse with a call in Broken Tooth Mountain Range! Experts are competing to befriend him, so he has many resources. Furthermore, he has his Dao of Void and the Chaotic Origin Weapon too. Given his accumulations and the opportunities in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, his chances of reaching the final realm would be much greater.'
'If this continues on, he will only become stronger.' Undying Underworld Emperor felt an unprecedented anxiety.

Chapter 1239: Underworld Emperor pays Xue Ying a Visit
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
The look on Undying Underworld Emperor kept changing.
The impact of this news hit him too greatly. Previously, even though Xue Ying had disrupted his 'sacrificial offerings', causing him to stumble on his refinement of the Death Walker, deep in his heart, he did not feel that Xue Ying could ever threaten him.
Firstly, it was destined for this 'Monarch Flying Snow' to take a very long time before he could reach the final realm. This was easily seen by the number of final realm cultivators in Realm Heart Great Land. Ultimately, breaking through to the final realm was too difficult.
Secondly, even if Monarch Flying Snow broke through to the final realm! Undying Underworld Emperor felt that even if Monarch Flying Snow had a Chaotic Origin Weapon, he could still match up to the other party after igniting his heart blood. Hence, it was impossible for Monarch Flying Snow to threaten his life. Even if he wasn't too willing to ignite too much heart blood, he could easily escape into the 'Broken Tooth Mountain Range'. After all, he did not have much to worry about at Realm Heart Great Land.
Reaching his level, he no longer had any other concerns. His sole goal was to become a Chaotic Origin Lifeform! He had failed in his crusade previously. Hence, he was left with the path in Broken Tooth Mountain Range!
'At the worst, I'll simply hide in Broken Tooth Mountain Range.' Undying Underworld Emperor was originally calm.
But now, he was stumped!
'This Monarch Flying Snow is too famous in Broken Tooth Mountain Range. All parties are competing to get close with him. If I were to escape into the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, he just has to give a command, and most likely, there would be several Great Emperors and even Supremes willing to act for him! I'll be doomed if that happened!" Undying Underworld Emperor felt anxious.
'I am not very safe in the Realm Heart Great Land either way. In the end, I still underestimated Monarch Flying Snow.'
'The moment he breaks through to the final realm! With his Chaotic Origin Weapon, his strength would not be any lesser than after I ignite my heart blood. He even has that terrifying Mirage and Illusory Realm Technique which could cause Emperors to fall! I would most likely be weakened greatly as a result.' Undying Underworld Emperor thought, 'The moment I am weakened, I would no longer be his opponent. I would simply be chased by him! And once I consumed my heart blood, my strength would further decrease. And once that happened, I would simply lose my life.'
Undying Underworld Emperor could easily foresee what might happen.
More importantly…
His rationality told him that this was something very possible!
With the terrifying cultivation speed this Monarch Flying Snow had, he was clearly a talented monster! Just the battle at Flying Snow City showed how profound his understanding in the Dao of Void was. He even had a supreme secret impartation! Furthermore, his reputation in 'Broken Tooth Mountain Range' had become so great that it was destined for him to acquire many benefits. Many World Masters even took the initiative to shower him with gifts. Monarch Flying Snow should be able to obtain some of the wondrous opportunities in the sky-floating islands easily as well.
Hence, with so many parties helping him, this Monarch Flying Snow would most likely be breaking through to the final realm not too far from now!
'The moment he reaches the final realm, I'll be doomed.'
'He has that illusory realm technique coupled with his prowess in close combat. I would definitely die even if I ignite all my heart blood. Even if I choose to escape to the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, I would be seeking my death either!'
'I have nowhere to go!'
The eyes of Undying Underworld Emperor became cold and even slightly mad.
He was not willing to admit defeat so easily. In the past, he had competed with many other terrifying experts from different Origin Worlds. He even gradually researched out a way of refining the Death Walker, and succeeded once doing so! As a result, he became famous! Eventually, he was forced to sacrifice his Death Walker. That was how he escaped back to his hometown Realm Heart Great Land successfully.
One had to know, there were many more experts who were not weaker than him–some were even more outstanding! Eventually, they all died and fell in that world filled with despair.
'Monarch Flying Snow, we shall see what you choose in the end.' Undying Underworld Emperor made his decision.
"I shall first return. We can meet again in the future." Undying Underworld Emperor stood.
"Why are you in a rush this time?" The plump old man chuckled as he drank the wine.
"Mn, it is due time for me to return."
Undying Underworld Emperor did not elaborate. He turned around before leaving.
If he knew about Xue Ying's reputation in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, he would definitely not enter the Broken Tooth Mountain Range either! This place was too dangerous for him!
Undying Underworld Emperor returned back to the Realm Heart Great Land silently without others being aware of it. The Realm Heart Great Land was restricted by the laws set by 'Yuan'. Hence, the true experts from the Broken Tooth Mountain Range could never enter. Naturally, there was nobody who could threaten him. But this was 'temporary'. The moment Xue Ying broke through, that would mean imminent calamity for him.
"Hu hu hu~"
The gale whistled. Snow also fell from the sky.
Xue Ying sat by himself under his pavilion drinking wine. The wine was kept warm. There was also an unseen ripple protecting the pavilion, preventing the gale from entering it. Snowflakes were whirling around amidst the fierce weather. Despite the world being dark and dimmed, the pavilion remained peaceful and quiet with the fragrance from the wine pervading it.
"Mn?" Xue Ying frowned. He looked over at a direction.
A ripple descended.
The surrounding wind stopped blowing. The snow scattered apart. That ripple rapidly caused the world energy to condense into a figure. It was a handsome young man wearing luxurious golden robe and a crown.
'Undying Underworld Emperor actually came to my place?' Xue Ying felt strange. Even though unparalleled existences had visited his Flying Snow City, it was unexpected for Undying Underworld Emperor to come! After all, the enmity between both parties was something the entire Realm Heart Great Land knew.
"Underworld Emperor, what are you here for?" Xue Ying said.
"Why aren't you inviting me in for a sit?" Undying Underworld Emperor said with a smile.
Xue Ying's eyebrows twitched. If this was the true body of Undying Underworld Emperor, he might not dare to get close to the other party. He would simply sweep his Chaotic Origin Weapon 'Azure River Spear' over. He would definitely not let the other party enter Flying Snow City at all. But since this was merely an incarnation, he naturally did not place Underworld Emperor in his eyes. Since the other party came with manner, he would treat the other party likewise.
"Have a seat, Underworld Emperor." Xue Ying remained seated. He did not stand to invite the other party since he did not like Undying Underworld Emperor at all.
"Hahaha…" Undying Underworld Emperor came in laughing. He sat himself down comfortably before taking up the wine flask by the side naturally. Waving his hand, he condensed a cup using the world energy before pouring for himself. He drank a cup before saying, "This wine seems ordinary. But since this is the wine of Monarch Flying Snow, its value would have increased by many times over."
Xue Ying carefully observed this Undying Underworld Emperor.
The other party actually spoke so politely and even flattered him. This did not seem like the personality of Undying Underworld Emperor at all. Previously, the enmity between both parties was huge. He had disrupted a huge affair of Underworld Emperor! And Undying Underworld Emperor even became so furious that he sought to wipe out the entire Flying Snow City just to vent his anger. And now, he came to flatter Xue Ying?
"Monarch Flying Snow, you and I do have a huge grievance previously." Undying Underworld Emperor said, "But talking about that, I believe that your personality is too unyielding–you can't condone any devils at all. You aren't targeting me in particular. Rather, you are targeting all devils."
"Yes." Xue Ying nodded, "It is good that Underworld Emperor understands that."
"But you ultimately disrupted my affair." Undying Underworld Emperor said, "In this path of cultivation, you actually cut off my Dao Path, and as a result, created an enmity with me where both of us can't exist under the same heaven together!"
Xue Ying continued listening silently.
"But now, this enmity can be dissolved." Undying Underworld Emperor added with a smile.
"How?" Xue Ying replied.
"Haha, Monarch Flying Snow has hidden yourself incredibly deep. Currently, your reputation in Broken Tooth Mountain Range has spread far and wide. The 13 Emperors, the eight Great Emperors, the five Great Supremes… I believe nobody dares to underestimate you at all. You can easily become a VIP of any Supremes. Most Great Emperors would have to take the initiative in inviting you over and give you gifts in the future as well." Undying Underworld Emperor said.
Xue Ying's eyebrows twitched. He chuckled: "Underworld Emperor's intelligence is really fast and abundant."
"It's only because the Natives and our Realm Heart Great Land do not converse much. Otherwise, this news would spread out across the world already. I believe in a thousand years or so, the unparalleled existences would know about this." Undying Underworld Emperor said, "The reason I came over is to find Monarch Flying Snow for help. Once you help me, we can be friends in the future. I'll no longer slaughter those weak little ants."
"What do you need help with?" Xue Ying asked. If both parties ended up in a bigger conflict, things would not be optimal either since Xue Ying could not stop Undying Underworld Emperor from slaughtering more.
"Help me gather a total of 15 'Dark Flowers' before sending me into the 'Snake Tooth Corridor'." Undying Underworld Emperor said, "As long as you help me with this, our enmity will be dissolved. I can even promise to help you do things! As for me no longer killing more? Haha, as long as I can enter the Snake Tooth Corridor, I'll definitely not return to the Realm Heart Great Land. Naturally, I could no longer create more chaos in the Realm Heart Great Land."
Xue Ying's expression changed when he heard that.
Every single dark Flower was incredibly previous. Its value was not any less than a droplet of 'Streaming Light Spiritual Milk'.
But 16 flowers, given his influence in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, was still doable if he thought of ways to make use of the favors from others!
But 'Snake Tooth Corridor' was a legendary forbidden ground in the entire Broken Tooth Mountain Range!
Want to enter?
That was even a legend in the intelligence reports of the Native Clans! Only the five Great Supremes could possibly enter. Most Great Emperors had never entered that place.
If he planned on entering the mysterious Snake Tooth Corridor, he would have to ask the five Great Supremes for help! If those Supremes had an opportunity to enter, they would have long entered. Even Great Emperors could not get this privilege.
"You plan on entering the Snake Tooth Corridor?" Xue Ying looked at Undying Underworld Emperor. This request was simply too much.

Chapter 1240: 10 Trillion Years
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
"Right." Undying Underworld Emperor's gaze was filled with glowing passion, "Given Monarch Flying Snow's current status in Broken Tooth Mountain Range, I believe you should be able to do it right?"
"Underworld Emperor, how much do you know of the Snake Tooth Corridor?" Xue Ying felt puzzled. Undying Underworld Emperor actually tried to secure an opportunity of entering the Snake Tooth Corridor from him.
Undying Underworld Emperor mumbled: "The Snake Tooth Corridor is a rumored forbidden ground in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range. Hearsay that forbidden ground contains a secret of advancing into the Chaotic Origin Level. Currently, even the five Great Supremes are seeking opportunities there."
"Right, the five Great Supremes are seeking opportunities themselves."
Xue Ying continued, "As they say, this forbidden ground contains the secret of advancing into the Chaotic Origin Level. Which of the five Great Supremes do not wish to become one? It is impossible for them to give this opportunity to others. Even the eight Great Emperors and 13 Emperors desire to enter. I can tell you clearly! In the entire Broken Tooth Mountain Range, there had never been a transaction that occurred over the chance of entering the Snake Tooth Corridor. The Supremes do not even trade between themselves, and they do not even bestow it upon the eight Great Emperors and 13 Emperors."
"Never has that happened before! My reputation as Monarch Flying Snow might be useful to the eight Great Emperors and 13 Emperors. But before the five Great Supremes, they would merely take another glance at me. You want to secure a chance of entering the Snake Tooth Corridor? Dream on." Xue Ying calmly said.
He did not lie.
Because he had gotten sufficient intelligence and understood quite a lot from Great Emperor North River and Great Emperor Shamanic Wind. There were even other Great Emperors inviting him over during the recent days.
He definitely belonged to the highest rung in Broken Tooth Mountain Range. Hence, Xue Ying understood quite a lot of secrets.
And the statuses of the five Great Supremes were transcendental!
The 13 Emperors and eight Great Emperors were still fighting and competing with one another! Yet the five Great Supremes did not care about the power struggle. They did not even care about treasures! Because they had already reached grand perfection in the Emperor realm. Hence, most opportunities in the sky-floating islands were useless to them. The only useful place to the five Great Supremes was the legendary forbidden ground–the Snake Tooth Corridor!
What they were competing over was the chance of entering the Snake Tooth Corridor.
Because only by entering the Snake Tooth Corridor could they gain an opportunity of advancing into the Chaotic Origin Level. Otherwise, it was too difficult for any of them to cultivate and promote to the next level.
Every single opportunity was incredibly precious. It was sufficient for the Supremes to fight with one another! This chance would never be let to someone else. How could they ever give up on the chance of 'succeeding in the Dao'? As a cultivator, it was a pipe dream for Xue Ying to ask for this chance to enter. His illusory realm technique might be effective to Great Emperors, but to the five Great Supremes, it would not be as persuasive.
Even if the five Great Supremes were weakened by 20% to 30% of their strength, they would still not fear other Supremes!
They did not care about conquering many worlds, or fight with others. Their only ambition was to jump out of the cage and become a Chaotic Origin Lifeform!
"Not even a single chance?" The expression of Undying Underworld Emperor changed. He could not interact with those of the highest rung in Broken Tooth Mountain Range. Hence, what he understood was bits and pieces.
"No chance."
Xue Ying shook his head, "Underworld Emperor, entering the Snake Tooth Corridor has never been something you could ask for. You have to compete for the chance yourself. Perhaps you might be able to grasp an opportunity of entering while exploring the many sky-floating islands."
"Compete? How can I compete?" Undying Underworld Emperor looked at Xue Ying, "If I had refined my Death Walker, I would naturally be qualified to compete. But now, how could I? I do not even have the slightest chance of escaping from the five Great Supremes."
"I can help you to gather the 15 Dark Flowers." Xue Ying said, "But you have to swear an oath."
"Hahaha…"
Undying Underworld Emperor began guffawing. His laughter was filled with madness, "Monarch Flying Snow, you really know how to joke. Do you know how difficult it is for me to take another step after cultivating to my current realm? Ordinary treasures aren't helpful to me at all. Even the Dark Flowers are simply accessories. If I can't enter the Snake Tooth Corridor, then everything is useless! They are all pointless!"
"Originally, I could have secure a chance to enter. With the Death Walker, I would definitely be able to fight for it." Undying Underworld Emperor glared at Xue Ying. His eyes were filled with madness, "But because of you, you disrupted my sacrificial rite."
Xue Ying calmly watched as Undying Underworld Emperor raved on madly.
"Are you going to obstruct me again if I begin another sacrificial rite?" Undying Underworld Emperor uttered.
"Definitely so!" Xue Ying nodded.
"You… if you dare to obstruct me, I'll similarly massacre countless of other beings."
Xue Ying shook his head: "If I do not obstruct you, you would similarly sacrifice many sentient beings. Of course, you can begin your massacre. Once you massacred to a certain limit, 'Yuan' would naturally send down his punishment!"
If the other party succeeded in refining the Death Walker, then nobody could stop this Underworld Emperor from wreaking havoc.
Even though he did not know how powerful the Death Walker was!
But Undying Underworld Emperor was already exaggeratedly strong. By igniting his heart blood, he could fight against god generals. If he was so fixated at refining the Death Walker out, it would definitely boost his strength significantly. Otherwise, why the need to refine it?
The moment he did so!
Nobody could ever stop him anymore!
"Very good, very good." Undying Underworld Emperor said with madness. His figure abruptly disappeared.
The negotiation crumbled!
"Things are getting out of hand." Xue Ying murmured to himself. But he did not have the choice. He did not even have the power to give Undying Underworld Emperor an opportunity of entering the Snake Tooth Corridor.
At another location.
On the throne of a towering palace hall, a luxurious golden-robed Undying Underworld Emperor sat with a crown on his head. His eyes were burning with flames. "Hong"–the surrounding of his body began burning in flames. This flame shot out in all directions. The terrified female attendants in the hall turned into nothingness. This palace hall was even burned into ashes. And now, Undying Underworld Emperor stood amidst the ruins.
"I have no other path to take."
"You are the one who is forcing me down this path!"
The current state of Undying Underworld Emperor was filled with madness.
If he obediently chose not to massacre, even if Xue Ying broke through to the final realm, the other party would most likely be merciful and not kill him.
But to Undying Underworld Emperor, there was no point of living if he could not advance into the Chaotic Origin level! Living without hope is a form of torture. He had lived for far too long, leaving just the intense desire of evolving towards the next level of life. He desired to reach that unfathomable stage that felt like breaking out of his cocoon and becoming a butterfly.
He once felt that higher level of life at a close distance. As a result, his desire to break through became even more intense.
"I shall try one final time."
"Previously, I succeeded in escaping back. I have already lived for this long! It is impossible for me to have a breakthrough by orthodox means of cultivation. Only the mysterious 'Snake Tooth Corridor' could give me the chance of success." The eyes of Undying Underworld Emperor were burning with flames, "Before Monarch Flying Snow breaks through to the final realm, I shall take the last gamble. I do not hope of refining the complete Death Walker. Even if I could control a simplified version, it should suffice."
The complete Death Walker made use of a half Chaotic Origin Lifeform Body. Its strength was comparable to the five Great Supremes.
If he succeeded in refining it, he would immediately be able to fight with other Supremes. Naturally, he would be qualified to compete for the chance of entering the Snake Tooth Corridor in Broken Tooth Mountain Range!
Even if it was an incomplete Death Walker, its strength was sufficiently strong.
"I shall stake it."
Undying Underworld Emperor no longer had any paths of retreat.
'This Monarch Flying Snow cultivates incredibly quick. He should be able to break through to the final realm in 10 trillion years. I have to succeed within this timeframe,' Undying Underworld Emperor thought. To Cosmos Gods, 10 trillion years was considered short. Undying Underworld Emperor felt that he had overestimated Xue Ying by taking this timeframe as an estimate.
In the past, Luo City Lord once gave Xue Ying and Swordmaster a chance. That was merely because of his kind intention. He was not certain that the two of them could reach the final realm before the Great Apocalypse. One could see how difficult it was to reach the final realm.
But after that, not only Swordmaster or Xue Ying, both of them grew at a pace that surprised even Luo City Lord and Yuan!
Swordmaster had already broken through to the final realm! And Xue Ying had walked to an unfathomable distance in the Dao of Soul path.
'10 trillion years.'
Undying Underworld Emperor felt that time was tight. But it was still possible for him to accomplish his task within this period.
That day.
Undying Underworld Emperor arrived at the Southern Cloud Capital.
"Teacher." Southern Cloud King remained incredibly obedient. He had no choice. He did not dare to disobey this Undying Underworld Emperor.
"Hmph." Undying Underworld Emperor snorted. He disliked Southern Cloud King precisely because Monarch Flying Snow was the disciple of Southern Cloud King! It's just that he still needed the help of Southern Cloud King currently.
"Help me gather these materials." Undying Underworld Emperor threw a scroll to Southern Cloud King, "You must gather them within 10 billion years. Otherwise, be prepared for your entire Southern Cloud Capital to be wiped out with you."
Southern Cloud King's heart trembled as he received the scroll.

Chapter 1241: Underworld Emperor couldn't be left alive!
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
After throwing the scroll over, Undying Underworld Emperor simply left.
As Southern Cloud King received the scroll, he panicked in his heart: "In the past, Undying Underworld Emperor would maintain decorum when asking me to help him do stuff. But now, if I couldn't complete the task on time, he would wipe out my Southern Cloud Nation! He was actually so overbearing and ruthless! Things seem amiss?"
After a moment.
Southern Cloud King sent an avatar over to find Xue Ying at the Flying Snow City.
"Teacher." Xue Ying was still seated at his pavilion. When he saw his teacher coming over, he immediately stood and greeted the other party.
"Xue Ying, I've just met Undying Underworld Emperor and find that things aren't right." Southern Cloud King explained what had just happened once through.
When Xue Ying finished listening, he answered: "It's all because of me."
"Because of you?" Southern Cloud King felt puzzled.
"He could possibly be feeling gravely threatened." Xue Ying sighed, "It actually stemmed from my fame in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range."
"Your fame in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range? What fame?" Southern Cloud King was even more bewildered at this moment. The cultivators from Realm Heart Great Land usually had to keep on their toes when they visited the Broken Tooth Mountain Range. They had to be careful when facing the Death Destruction Clan. They similarly had to be careful when facing the Natives too! Even unparalleled existence wouldn't dare to bring their supreme-graded secret treasures if there was no need to!
"It's like this."
Naturally, Xue Ying did not hide from his teacher. He told the other party everything that happened.
As Southern Cloud King listened, he gradually became shocked.
Oh god!
Being strong enough to fight against god generals, he even dared to go against Great Emperor North River! Great Emperor North River did not get angry. On the contrary, he came personally with politeness to invite Xue Ying over to a banquet! Many Great Emperors even came to invite him. And when 'Great Emperor Shamanic Wind' worked together with Xue Ying, they were able to force 'Emperor Yan', the strongest of the 13 Emperors to lower its head!
"You, you…" Southern Cloud King felt that his horizons had been broadened. Currently, he was looking at his disciple with great astonishment.
Frightening!
Truly frightening!
There had never been a cultivator from Realm Heart Great Land who could be so highly regarded like Xue Ying in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range! Even those at the level of the eight Great Emperors and 13 Emperors were competing to get into Xue Ying's grace.
"Have you reached the final realm in your Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm? Are soul techniques so formidable?" Southern Cloud King could not help but ask.
"I haven't. I've only reached the limits before the final realm." Xue Ying replied, "I have gotten some great opportunities in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range. By relying on that, I was able to comprehend a Mirage and Illusory Realm killing technique! And that was how I was able to reach my current stage of level."
"Since you have the capability of forcing many Emperors in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range down, you should be able to weaken many final realm cultivators significantly! Most level-two Cosmos Gods and Paragon Masters… would even fall asleep directly before you. And that includes me." Southern Cloud King shook his head in lament, "Even though I have many avatars, you could simply destroy all of them with a single thought."
At this moment.
Southern Cloud King started feeling alarmed over this disciple of his! Soul techniques were too terrifying. The moment an avatar fell for it, given that all avatars were connected via their memories, all of them would similarly fall into the illusory realm!
Southern Cloud King even chose to temporarily break all memory connections he had with his avatars that were located in other Origin Worlds! Since it was taxing to maintain the memory linkage with avatars that were located in different Origin Worlds, he could easily severe the connection by choosing not to maintain it: 'I shall synchronize our memories once every few years so as to prevent any diversion of personality.'
Soul techniques were too frightening. Even if Southern Cloud King was the teacher, being a cultivator, he still instinctively acted as a means of self-preservation.
"I should be able to deal with level-two Cosmos Gods with a thought." Xue Ying nodded. Currently, the only ones he could not handle were only final realm cultivators in Realm Heart Great Land.
"That Undying Underworld Emperor should have found out about this. He is afraid of me." Xue Ying calmly stated.
"Afraid of you?" Southern Cloud King was puzzled.
"Yes. He wishes to enter the Broken Tooth Mountain Range. But if I were to discover him in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, I could easily summon a group of experts to kill him." Xue Ying explained, "Furthermore, because I can easily obtain treasures and opportunities–those World Masters and Great Emperors took the initiative to give them to me–given my accumulations in the Dao of Void and in the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm, I could possibly have a breakthrough in any of the two Daos to the final realm."
Southern Cloud King agreed.
That's Right.
He felt that this disciple of his could possibly reach the final realm in any of the two Daos! Naturally, this was because the cultivators in Realm Heart Great Land did not know how difficult the Dao of Soul was!
"If I were to reach the final realm in my Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm, my soul technique would become more formidable. Perhaps I could easily wipe him out by relying on my soul technique." Xue Ying said, "Even if I couldn't he would be weakened to a stage where he was only left with 20% to 30% of his original strength. Killing him would be an easy task."
Currently, his soul technique was this powerful already. Once it reached the final realm, it would be greatly overpowered.
Xue Ying felt that it was entirely possible to kill a peak cultivator with a thought!
"If I were to have a breakthrough in the Dao of Void! I could rely on my Chaotic Origin Weapon and perhaps find another helper. By then, it is entirely possible to kill him either way." Xue Ying muttered.
Southern Cloud King felt startled inwardly.
He took in this disciple easily without doing much for him… and he became so amazing now! In the blink of an eye, he could even threaten the life of Undying Underworld Emperor!
"That is why he plans on struggling." Xue Ying shook his head, "I do not wish to force him into dire straits. As long as he doesn't massacre the innocent, I might even be willing to swear an oath not to deal against him. It's a pity that his goal is to advance into the Chaotic Origin Level. The condition he proposed is way beyond my limits. I can't satisfy it. I am afraid he should have begun some sort of schemes since he is definitely someone who would not resign himself to death."
"Mn, he would definitely not resign himself to death." Southern Cloud King concurred.
In a huge city.
Undying Underworld Emperor arrived above this city at night. He coldly looked down at this city.
There were a huge amount of cultivators that lived here. There were male and female, old and young. There were solitary cultivators, and some who worked as attendants or servants to earn cosmos crystals.
"Absorb!"
Undying Underworld Emperor abruptly took a deep breath.
An endless darkness suddenly engulfed the entire place. All the civilians within the city could not retaliate at all. Their souls left their bodies. This single breath by Undying Underworld Emperor formed an abyss that caused all souls to fly into it. Some cultivators in this city had avatars outside, and they immediately began spreading the news about it.
Undying Underworld Emperor felt disdain from concealing his actions either.
Not only were the civilians spreading the news. This disturbance was even felt by several final realm cultivators.
"Mn? What is this Underworld Emperor doing?" Ancestor Fan could perceive what was happening from afar. He focused his attention to the site while feeling incredibly confused, "Even if he plans on collecting a large number of souls, he could easily entice the weaker cultivators to do it for him. Why would he be doing it himself?"
Yet he did not know.
Undying Underworld Emperor was currently making full use of his time to conduct more experiments. If he planned to entice the weaker devils, that would require time! Nothing could ever beat doing it himself in terms of speed!
"Devour!"
Undying Underworld Emperor finally absorbed all souls into his body–they were stored at an inner space.
He stood silently at his current location when a white-robed young man finally appeared by the side.
"Underworld Emperor." Xue Ying looked down at the city. He saw the lack of souls in the bodies of the civilians. It had become a dead city. At that instance, Xue Ying turned to Undying Underworld Emperor with indignance, "What are you planning to do?"
Sacrificing just a single city was definitely insufficient.
"What I plan to do?"
"Since you aren't giving me a path to take, I can only pave it myself." Undying Underworld Emperor sneered at Xue Ying, "Monarch Flying Snow. The famous Monarch Flying Snow. I'm afraid you could possibly become the strongest expert in Realm Heart Great Land. What a pity. You can't stop me from doing what I want to do."
Finishing his words, Undying Underworld Emperor disappeared.
He deliberately stayed here for Xue Ying!
"Damn."
The expression on Xue Ying became ugly. He could still kill ordinary devils. Nonetheless, Undying Underworld Emperor was someone he could not handle even if he acted.
Time passed.
The huge reputation Xue Ying created in Broken Tooth Mountain Range began spreading across the highest rung in Realm Heart Great Land. Emperor Summer, World Extermination God-Emperor, Towering Sky King, Ancestor Fan, Eternal Night Primogenitor, Extreme Night Primogenitor and others were dumbstruck when they heard the news. Ancestor Fan even exclaimed with shock: "His Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm should have reached the pinnacle pinnacle. He could possibly have broken through to the final realm!"
They could even ascertain that Great Emperors treated Xue Ying as a VIP!
The 13 Emperors were all wary of this Monarch Flying Snow!
And large number of World Masters had once sent a lot of treasures–top-graded and even supreme-graded ones to him!
That was simply madness!
The highest run of Realm Heart Great Land were stunned. Some final realm cultivators who did not own any supreme-graded secret treasures were green with envy! They were filled with admiration and jealousy! At the same time, they felt helpless too.
As the unparalleled existences and final realm cultivators came to visit Xue Ying, Xue Ying was actually paying close notice to news on Undying Underworld Emperor.
"Undying Underworld Emperor."
Xue Ying's mood was not good.
In just a short 3 years.
After Undying Underworld Emperor raked in a large batch of souls, he still frequently did so in the dark. Currently, the six great ancient nations in Realm Heart Great Land treated Xue Ying with respect. By relying on the intelligence from various sources, he found out that the one reaping the souls were all done by Undying Underworld Emperor!
"Underworld Emperor musn't be left alive!" Xue Ying gritted his teeth, "I have to think of ways to eliminate him."
If this continued, Xue Ying did not know how many would die.
Could he simply hope for 'Yuan' to appear? Given the temper of Yuan, he would not do anything against any actions short of affecting the balance in Realm Heart Great Land.

Summer Wind Ancient Nation, Royal Palace.
Within a garden, Emperor Summer, Emperor Cang, and Ancestor Fan were seated together. They were currently drinking and chatting, and the topic was none other than the most famous character currently in Realm Heart Great Land–Monarch Flying Snow!
"Hearsay Extreme Night Primogenitor went to visit Monarch Flying Snow. Extreme Night Primogenitor even personally swore an oath to resolve the enmity between them!" Emperor Cang laughed, "Talking about that, of the two primogenitors in the Primogenitor Ancient Nation, Extreme Night Primogenitor was truly a realist. He could easily lower his head without second thoughts. Instead, it was the other, Eternal Night Primogenitor, who is more of a swindler!"
"Haha, I bet Eternal Night Primogenitor is currently feeling agitated." Ancestor Fan chuckled, "The intimidation from Ying Shan Xue Ying is way more frightening than before. He could easily summon a group of World Masters from Broken Tooth Mountain Range with a call! Of which all of them would hear his orders."
"Mn." Emperor Summer nodded, "His rise can't be stopped."
"That's right. Nobody can stop him." Ancestor Fan sighed, "It is very hard for other cultivators to obtain any treasures in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range. But this Ying Shan Xue Ying doesn't have to take the risk. Instead, many natives are willing to give them to him."
"There's no use envying him. You can't blame anyone but yourself for being far weaker than him in your Mirage and Illusory Realm." Emperor Cang added from the side.
"His Mirage and Illusory Realm is simply too powerful!" Ancestor Fan shook his head.
Two Daos.
One being the Dao of Void and the other the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm. Both Daos made others perceive clearly the terrifying rate at which Xue Ying was improving!
Furthermore, he had help from many opportunities in Broken Tooth Mountain Range. That gave him an even greater advantage.
"Mn? Talking about Monarch Flying Snow and he is here." Emperor Summer suddenly laughed. All three of them turned towards a location in midair. There, a white-robed young man walked out before landing down with a smile. He was not the slightest arrogant. Instead, he politely greeted: "Greetings, Emperor Summer, Ancestor Fan, and Emperor Cang."
"Come have a seat, Monarch Flying Snow!" Emperor Summer welcomed him.
"We were just talking about you and here you are." Ancestor Fan added, "Flying Snow, currently, there are some unparalleled existences talking about how you would most likely become the strongest expert in Realm Heart Great Land! You would be standing above both Emperor Summer and Underworld Emperor." After finishing his words, Ancestor Fan gave Emperor Summer a grin.
"I haven't even reached the final realm and is still too far away." Xue Ying humbly replied.
Emperor Summer retorted: "I do agree with it though. Even though I have gotten a supreme secret impartation, I do not have any Chaotic Origin Weapon. Hence, it is impossible for me to execute the final killing technique imparted down from the supreme secret impartation. But for you, once you reached the final realm in your Dao of Void, with your supreme secret impartation coupled with your Chaotic Origin Weapon, that Underworld Emperor would only be comparable to you."
Xue Ying sighed inwardly.
The Chaotic Origin Weapon was meant to be used with the supreme secret impartation! Even if one acquired a supreme secret impartation, without the appropriate Dao of Void supreme-graded secret treasure, it was impossible for him to execute the final killing technique.
Broken Tooth Mountain Range
"If Monarch Flying Snow were to reach the final realm in your Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm, things would become harder to predict. Currently, some Emperors could be easily taken down with your technique. If you were to reach the final realm in that Dao, with a thought, all of us final realm cultivators would simply be immersed in your illusory realm. I do not find that bit puzzling." Emperor Cang sighed, "The Dao of Soul is innately complex and difficult. It should produce various mystical effects once you reach grand perfection in it."
Any Daos had their specialties once they were taken to the grand perfection realm.
Hence, most final realm cultivators were incredibly good at surviving even if they did not own any supreme-graded secret treasures! As for how powerful the Dao of Soul when it was taken to grand perfection? That was something they could not predict.
"I do wish to reach the final realm too! But it is simply too difficult." Xue Ying shook his head and sighed.
"Emperor Summer, Ancestor Fan, and Emperor Cang." Xue Ying continued, "Actually, I came today to ask for a favor from the three of you."
"Oh? The powerful Monarch Flying Snow could casually summon several World Masters for help. Why the need to find us for help?" Ancestor Fan teased.
"Monarch Flying Snow, do tell what you need us to do." Emperor Summer answered instead for the three of them.
Emperor Cang also looked at Xue Ying.
They were curious. This Monarch Flying Snow had countless treasures. Currently, he was incredibly powerful too! All six great ancient nations naturally respected him. Certain experts like Extreme Night Primogenitor and Moonflower King had already visited him and sworn an oath to dissolve any enmities! It was only the resentful 'Eternal Night Primogenitor' who was still hesitating over his pride. With such huge influencing abilities, what could the three of them do for Xue Ying?
Xue Ying nodded. He spoke with a solemn look: "I wish to eliminate Undying Underworld Emperor!"
"Eliminate Undying Underworld Emperor?"
The three of them were greatly shocked. They were filled with disbelief.
"He is currently the strongest expert in Realm Heart Great Land." Emperor Summer said, "The moment he unleashes his trump card, not even I am his opponent. And you are planning to eliminate him?"
"There is no need to be worried over a direct combat." Xue Ying said, "I am confident. I can easily ask several World Masters over for help. 30 of them, 50 of them, or even 100 of them! That is nothing too difficult for me."
The expressions of Emperor Summer, Ancestor Fan, and Emperor Cang changed when they heard that.
More than a hundred World Masters?
Yuan had left behind a law to restrict any entrants from Broken Tooth Mountain Range to be at most initial Emperors. As for the 'Death Destruction Clan' who were filled with madness in their blood, they were completely forbidden from entering the Realm Heart Great Land! Even though Initial Emperors had slightly cruder techniques, they were comparable in strength with Emperor Summer. Emperor Summer could easily defeat a World Master by relying on the profundity of his techniques.
But if five or six of them worked together, Emperor Summer would be disadvantaged.
"We have only heard from others about this. But hearing it from Monarch Flying Snow personally, I finally understood your influence in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range." Ancestor Fan lamented.
Xue Ying did not elaborate.
Much less World Masters.
He could even seek Great Emperors and a group of god generals for help!
As for World Masters? There were too many of them he could find for help.
"A group of World Masters is sufficient to deal with Undying Underworld Emperor once they enter a combat formation. The moment that Undying Underworld Emperor finishes utilizing his trump cards, it is possible for me to kill him." Xue Ying said, "Currently, the most troublesome part is… if he plans on escaping without fighting back, it is almost impossible for me to find him."
"Mn."
"Right. You can't find him if he plans on escaping."
"It is hard even to trace down ordinary final realm cultivators. Undying Underworld Emperor has reached final realm in two Daos. How could you find him if he focuses solely on escaping? Those native World Masters are amazing, but their understanding of the laws is too crude. It is impossible for them to trace down Undying Underworld Emperor at all."
The three of them said.
Xue Ying agreed. This was also the main reason why final realm devils could bring down calamities in Realm Heart Great Land. The moment they chose to escape, they could hide their aura and conceal their movements. It would be nile impossible to find them then.
"That is why I came here today." Xue Ying said, "To ask the three of you and see if there is anything I can do to trace him down."
"It is difficult to trace down Undying Underworld Emperor!" Emperor Summer answered.
Xue Ying's eyes brightened. Emperor Summer mentioned that it was difficult! He did not say it was 'impossible'!
"Does Emperor Summer have a way of doing so?" Xue Ying asked, "If Emperor Summer could help me kill that Undying Underworld Emperor, I do have a piece of flame-type supreme-graded secret treasure that I can gift Emperor Summer."
Emperor Summer's eyes brightened when he saw that.
He had a void-related supreme-graded secret treasure, though he did not have one for his Dao of Flame.
"What a huge sum." Emperor Cang sighed.
"You are really willing to spend it for the sake of killing Undying Underworld Emperor." Ancestor Fan sighed as well, "Perhaps you might become the strongest cultivator in Realm Heart Great Land in the future. But now, you are already the richest in Realm Heart Great Land. You have so many Native Clans from the Broken Tooth Mountain Range helping behind your back. It is impossible for us to compete."
Xue Ying continued asking: "Do you have any ways of tracing him down and killing him?"
"Undying Underworld Emperor has ultimately reached the final realm in two Daos. Even though both were offensive in nature, his abilities in concealment remains incredibly strong. I can't even trace him down." Emperor Summer shook his head, "But there is someone in the Realm Heart Great Land who could do so."
"Who?" Xue Ying asked.
"Limitless City Master!"
Emperor Summer said, "I have talked to Limitless City Master before. Hearing from him, in the past when Undying Underworld Emperor returned to the Realm Heart Great Land, he was still able to discover Underworld Emperor despite the other party hiding. But the path of cultivation of Limitless City Master was unique. His personality is weird too. I am not confident at all of asking him for help. You can only rely on yourself for this, Monarch Flying Snow."
"Limitless City Master?" Xue Ying slightly nodded.
Even if he asked a group of experts for help, Undying Underworld Emperor could easily escape in the Realm Heart Great Land and conceal his aura.
And it seemed only Limitless City Master could help him in this endeavor of tracing down the Underworld Emperor?
But Limitless City Master…
Xue Ying was not confident as well. The other party was the final realm cultivator with the weirdest personality across Realm Heart Great Land.
'I should just attempt it. No matter what, I should think of ways to ask Limitless City Master for help.' Xue Ying thought.

Chapter 1243: Meeting Limitless City Master
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
To many weak little cultivators and even some ordinary Cosmos Gods, Limitless City Master was the unparalleled existence with the best temperament!
But to other final realm cultivators and unparalleled existences, Limitless City Master had the weirdest personality.
Also.
He was publicly recognized as being the cultivator with the strangest and mysterious techniques! He was even ranked at the top of the five ancestors in Myriad Realm Ancient Nation! His survival capabilities were heaven-defying, and his scouting ability was recognized as number one across all Realm Heart Great Land.
"A guest is coming."
With a body covered in green skin, Limitless City Master stood at the top of the highest palace in the City Master Residence where white fog surrounded the place. He had a blood-colored horn protruding on his head, yet his eyes gave off a gentle feeling. Even the weak ordinary animals did not feel any threat from Limitless City Master at all. He seemed to be part of the Realm Heart Great Land–as a being that did not give off any aura or grandeur of power. He was simply ordinary.
If he chose to conceal his traces, nobody would most likely be able to find him.
Limitless City Master looked ahead.
Ripples were formed over there, and a white-robed young man walked out from it. He stepped on the void before coming close to Limitless City Master.
"It is rare for Monarch Flying Snow to visit my Limitless City." Limitless City Master chuckled.
"I do apologize to City Master for taking the liberty to visit you." Xue Ying walked over.
"Destiny is already fixed. There is nothing presumptuous of you to pay me a visit." Limitless City Master said. He then pointed out with the green arm of his, "Monarch, please have a seta."
Both parties walked to the side.
Both parties sat down opposite on an ordinary stone stool with a stone table placed in between.
Limitless City Master personally poured wine for Xue Ying. It was an ordinary wine.
"I've heard the news of Monarch's soul technique that is so powerful it could cause several Emperors in Broken Tooth Mountain Range to fall." Limitless City Master said, "Even though we cultivators have reached the final realm, we would most likely be significantly weakened under Monarch's soul technique. Dare I ask if Monarch has reached the final realm in the Dao of Soul?"
"I have not." Xue Ying replied truthfully, "It was due to some fortuitous encounters that I comprehended some special techniques."
Limitless City Master said: "In the vast Origin World, everything revolves around the Supreme Law. Flowers and trees grow, ants and insects would reproduce. Many intelligent beings emerge over time, though the 'soul' remains the most special. It is the foundation of all lives, and even the foundation of the Origin World."
Xue Ying agreed.
The 'Essence of Blood Spirit' refined by blood sacrificing many sentient beings had a better effect than the Origin World Stone.
And even when many sentient beings chose to believe and be loyal to a person, the will of the masses would influence the will of the Origin World. The Origin World would thus acknowledge allegiance to that person, simply promoting him to become the master of the Origin World!
The soul… was indeed the most special substance of an Origin World, and was also the true foundation of all sentient beings. Thus, it was incredibly difficult to walk further down this path!
"I've seen through how the myriad existences work in the Origin World, yet I can't see through the soul." Limitless City Master said.
"I personally can't comprehend much of it either." Xue Ying said, though he was feeling apprehensive. The first thing Limitless City Master talked about with him was on the soul and how the world worked. He discussed about the myriad existences and sentient beings of an Origin World. It was better for him to simply get to the point: "City Master, actually I have something I have to trouble City Master for."
"Do say." Limitless City Master remained gentle.
"Undying Underworld Emperor has already become mad. If we don't stop him, he would most likely cause a huge calamity to befall." Xue Ying said.
"Why is Monarch saying this?" Limitless City Master said, "Why would Underworld Emperor become mad at his current realm?"
"Not too long ago, he came to find me." Xue Ying said in detail.
He explained the threat of Undying Underworld Emperor once through.
"His demand was too high. It is simply impossible for me to satisfy it." Xue Ying shook his head, "Since the discussion failed, he closely began collecting souls frantically. I've investigated what was happening. It appears he is conducting some kind of experiments on the soul."
Limitless City Master nodded: "Underworld Emperor once took on the path to become a Chaotic Origin Lifeform. After failing, he returned once again with the idea of wanting to refine the Death Walker so that he could visit the Broken Tooth Mountain Range. In the end, you disrupted his affair. Now that your influence in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range has rose to a tremendous level, he felt that his hopes of entering the Snake Tooth Corridor is simply too minute. Naturally, he chose to take the last gamble. That is the personality of Underworld Emperor."
"I'm afraid many innocent beings would be sacrificed during his final gamble." Xue Ying said, "Are we going to watch as all these small and weak beings die like this? I can't do that. Hence, I am prepared to eliminate Undying Underworld Emperor."
"Eliminate Underworld Master?" The eyes of Limitless City Master revealed curiosity.
"I'll bring over a large number of World Masters from the Broken Tooth Mountain Range before forming a group to kill Underworld Emperor together." Xue Ying said, "Being a final realm cultivator, the moment he chose to escape by concealing his aura, it'll be hard for us to trace him down. What I know is that City Master, you are currently the only one in Realm Heart Great Land who could trace down Undying Underworld Emperor. Hence, I came seeking for your help, City Master."
"I do have the capabilities of tracing him. If Emperor Summer could not do so even at his current realm, then I would most likely be the only one." Limitless City Master admitted.
"I wish City Master could help me." Xue Ying said, "If City Master requires anything, do say. I can even present a piece of supreme-graded secret treasure to City Master if you agree to help out."
"Monarch is indeed the wealthiest expert in Realm Heart Great Land currently. Hearing your offer has greatly enticed me." Limitless City Master then shook his head helplessly, "But it's a pity that I can't help you."
"Can't help me?" Xue Ying was both anxious and puzzled, "Why can't you help me? All City Master has to do is to mark the location of Undying Underworld Emperor. No matter where Underworld Emperor escapes to, you would be able to find him. As for the matter of killing him, it'll be done by the World Masters I invited. There's no need for City Master to act."
Limitless City Master replied: "Monarch, please return."
"Doesn't City Master care about the weak beings too?" Xue Ying anxiously added, "I can help City Master regardless if you need treasures or opportunities."
"It is unrelated to this." Limitless City Master shook his head.
"Unless City Master has some friendship with Undying Underworld Emperor?" Xue Ying anxiously asked. He did not have any choice since Limitless City Master was the only one who could help locate Undying Underworld Emperor down.
Limitless City Master chuckled: "How can I have any friendship with him? If he dies, I might even drink a few cups of wine delightedly."
"Then why?" Xue Ying did not understand.
They had no friendship.
He even requested the other party for help with many benefits, yet Limitless City Master chose not to agree.
"I can trace him down. Not only could I trace him down, I can even trace down all other final realm cultivators and unparalleled existences." Limitless City Master said, "But have you ever heard of me killing a final realm cultivator?"
Xue Ying was stunned.
That's right.
He had heard from Emperor Summer that Limitless City Master could trace down Undying Underworld Emperor. That was why he immediately came to ask the City Master for help. But he missed out on the fact that since the City Master could locate Undying Underworld Emperor, he would most likely be able to locate other final realm cultivators too.
But why were the various huge devils like Eight Silk Island Master so free and unfettered still?
"Because I can't kill."
Limitless City Master answered.
"You can't kill?" Xue Ying felt even more puzzled.
"All of us sentient beings are part of this world." Limitless City Master chuckled, "The weakest being the ants, and the strongest being the Cosmos Gods. All of us are part of the Origin World. We are part of the manifestation from the Supreme Law. Everything revolves under the Supreme Law. The sentient beings reproduce and cultivate. They form emotions for one another. Everything is a kind of manifestation from the Supreme Law. Just like how you are here seeking me for help, it is also part of the way the Supreme Law works."
Xue Ying was startled.
"I do not really care about treasures or opportunities." Limitless City Master said, "I don't care about supreme-graded secret treasures either. I have long reached the final realm, and has always been comprehending the Supreme Law."
"My mind is constantly fusing with this Origin World. Only then could I deepen my perception of how the Supreme Law works."
"The Supreme Law is incredibly mysterious."
"With the way the Supreme Law revolves, balance is naturally derived. I am merely an observer how the law maintains order." Limitless City Master smiled at Xue Ying, "I am not willing to see the balance being disrupted. Every final realm cultivator is nurtured by this Origin World as the strongest and most stunning magnificent being. Observing them makes me happy. If I were to kill them, I would be disrupting the balance of the world, and that is something I dislike the most."
"Especially so for myself. It is fine if I went out to fight. But If I were to kill a final realm cultivator, it would influence the state of the world. As a result, I would be embroiled in the law, causing karma to tie up on me. If that happens, the difficulty for observing the order would significantly increase."
"Undying Underworld Emperor is currently the strongest expert in Realm Heart Great Land. If Monarch Flying Snow were to invite a group of World Masters and I helped you to kill him…"
"It would affect the balance too much, causing a change to the law of order. Hence, the difficulty for me to observe the law would increase by 1,000 to 10,000 times."
"Hence, I seek Monarch's understanding that I can't help you in this." Limitless City Master said.

Chapter 1244: Supreme Shi Fa
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Xue Ying understood. After reaching the final realm, what was next would be to advance forward to the 'Chaotic Origin Level'! Old Monster Stone for instance, was wholeheartedly focusing on his Dao path to 'have a breakthrough with his strength'. Limitless City Master had his own path. He planned on analyzing the Supreme Law by observing the law of order! And by participating in the affair to kill Undying Underworld Emperor, it would significantly affect his Dao path.
It would make his Dao path 1,000 to 10,000 times harder. Hence, Limitless City Master would definitely not be willing to do it!
'Breaking the Dao path' of any expert would definitely cause the other party to go mad!
"City Master, this is where you are wrong." Xue Ying did not give up. Instead, he shouted, "Do you think your Dao path is the right one? No, it is wrong."
"Wrong? Oh, where am I wrong?" Limitless City Master took the initiative to ask.
"Soul… is the foundation of cultivators." Xue Ying solemnly explained, "And does City Master know what the deepest desire of the soul is?"
"What is it?" Limitless City Master felt curious. This white-robed young man standing before him was the one who walked the furthest down the Dao of Soul in the history of Realm Heart Great Land.
"Freedom!"
Xue Ying softly declared. He could not forget the joyful cheer let out by those sentient beings after they were saved from being enslaved by Sacred Master. It was the cheer of freedom! Souls were born to be free.
"Every soul desires to be free." Xue Ying explained, "They desire freedom. They desire to transcend. By continuously cultivating, only then could one be able to jump out of the cage and become a Chaotic Origin Lifeform. And you, City Master, you are afraid of breaking the law of order. You remain cautious so as to prevent from getting polluted by karma. You are like an observer watching carefully by the side, yet you do not know that you have unknowingly become a protector of the 'law order', becoming part of the law."
"We are all simply a manifestation of the Supreme Law." Limitless City Master shook his head.
"We have been nurtured and manifested from the Supreme Law, but we aren't part of the Supreme Law. The Supreme Law is our cradle. We ultimately desire to jump out of this cage!" Xue Ying stared at Limitless City Master, "If you resigned yourself to being part of the law, and that you dare not influence the law on a large scale basis, then it would be impossible for you to transcend."
"What you said is logical."
Limitless City Master shook his head, "But I have my path! There's no need for you to convince me anymore."
Xue Ying became silent.
He did not feel willing.
But he understood that an existence who had broken through to the final realm and was still growing, would definitely not be easily convinced.
Unless he had met all sorts of issues during his cultivation! Only by reflecting upon it would he alter his Dao path. It was useless for a bypasser to convince him otherwise, especially when Xue Ying did not understand the City Master's Dao path at all!
Flying Snow City.
"No wonder the weaker cultivators find him the warm and gentle. Even though the regulation in his Limitless City is strict, as long as order is maintained, nothing would happen." Xue Ying shook his head, "To turn himself into an observer of the law of order, he is not willing to participate in worldly affairs. It is natural for him to be transcendental. This personality… indeed makes him the weirdest."
He could understand the other party more now that he found out about his Dao path.
Compared to this Limitless City Master, Eternal Night Primogenitor, Extreme Night Primogenitor, Ancestor Fan, Emperor Summer, Undying Underworld Emperor, Towering Sky King, Moonflower King and others were more realistic. They had their own likes and dislikes.
"What should I do?"
"Without his help, nobody could locate Underworld Emperor."
"Unless I have to ambush and kill him directly?" Xue Ying did not find it too possible. Undying Underworld Emperor would definitely escape once he found out that things were amiss. To prevent the other party from escaping? This possibility could be ruled out! After all, the profound means Undying Underworld Emperor had were way beyond what the native World Masters could achieve.
Just as Xue Ying was distressed over the matter, the avatar he left at Starlight World received the transmission from Great Emperor North River.
"Monarch Flying Snow, I am prepared. It is time for us to move." Great Emperor North River transmitted over.
"Time for us to move? Good!" Xue Ying immediately acknowledged.
He could only put aside the matter of killing Undying Underworld Emperor temporarily and ponder through what other good ways there were.
First, he would help Great Emperor North River out. After all, he had promised the other party.
North River World.
Xue Ying arrived at the palace hall.
"Brother Flying Snow." Seated at his throne waiting, the green-robed 'Great Emperor North River' stood up when he saw Xue Ying enter. There were other god generals in the palace hall too–a total of ten of them. They were also the top ten god generals within the 36. Most of the time, they were usually noble and free. This time for all of them to be summoned over, this showed how grave and important this matter was to Great Emperor North River.
"Great Emperor." Xue Ying smiled, "Are you done preparing?'
"I am!"
Great Emperor North River said high-spiritedly, "Brother Flying Snow, shall we set off now?"
Xue Ying nodded: "I wonder where are we going? Which of the three Great Supremes are we targeting?"
"Supreme Shi Fa." Great Emperor North River replied.
Xue Ying nodded. Supreme Shi Fa was considered relatively strong between the three Great Supremes of the Death Destruction Clan. But he was similarly savage and ruthless, and was absolutely a huge devil. Perhaps it was because he had been born from death, Supreme Shi Fa found that bringing death to other beings was a form of 'charity'. Hence, he liked doing so. He would frequently descend on a Native World before conducting a ceremony. After which, he would grant all living beings on that world 'death'.
Supreme Shi Fa felt that this was benevolence. This was doing a favor for everyone.
To the many Natives, they felt it was too frightening! Even Xue Ying considered this to be an absolute innate devil!
"In the past, even though I've visited the Shi Fa Island before, I was still forced out without even seeing the Supreme himself. This time, only with Brother Flying Snow do I have the confidence of entering." Great Emperor North River chuckled, "This is a huge favor that I'll certainly remember. After we return from Shi Fa Island, I'll definitely not treat Brother Flying Snow badly."
"Let us go on our expedition before saying anything else. After all, the other party is a Supreme." Xue Ying said. Any one of the five great Supremes were not easy to deal with.
"Alright. Go, let us set off!"
Great Emperor North River laughed.
He walked with Xue Ying side by side, with the other 10 god generals following behind. They tore through the void and left the North River World.
Shi Fa Island.
Since this island was occupied by a Supreme, it was naturally ranked in the first three of all sky-floating islands in Broken Tooth Mountain Range in terms of land mass. Here, opportunities and danger came hand in hand. This island was way more terrifying than the island occupied by one of the 13 Emperors, 'Emperor Yan'! Just a single 'Supreme Shi Fa' was intimidating enough.
"Sou sou sou sou sou sou!"
A total of 12 figures descended directly on this Shi Fa Island.
Even though Shi Fa Island was vast and huge, it was paved with many stone roads. These stone roads intersected at many locations, and were all over the island.
Xue Ying was inwardly stunned when he saw it. Even though he had been to many sky-floating islands in the past, the other islands were incredibly primitive. Only at the clan-ground did he find the architecture to be more unique! One had to know that the worlds cultivators lived in contained various delicacies, styles of building, city layout… they were varying! But the sky-floating islands had been comparatively primitive.
'This Supreme Shi Fa is indeed a Supreme. He has at least done some simple construct in this sky-floating island.' Xue Ying thought.
Supreme Shi Fa, according to the intelligence, existed amidst reality and illusion.
His enemies would silently die without knowing.
He had the strangest way of killing his enemies compared to his peers.
The 12 of them had not started moving–they just landed on Shi Fa Island–when a faint black light shot out from the stone road by the side on the 12 of them.
"We have been discovered." Great Emperor North River lightly chuckled.
"North River, you actually dared to intrude on our Shi Fa Island!" Accompanied with a furious roar, a huge figure in black armor appeared. He wielded an enormous black lance as he stood in midair.

Chapter 1245: The First Fight with a Supreme
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Xue Ying looked at this armored expert who wielded a black lance. He could recognize the other party with a glance. He was a great general under Supreme Shi Fa–'Nofando'.
Great Emperor North River did not get angry. Instead, he chuckled at that pitch-black tall and sturdy male: "Nofando, instead of making a big fuss, why not look at who is standing beside me first?"
That pitch-black figure swept his gaze. He saw a white-robed young man standing beside Great Emperor North River. This great general 'Nofando', could not help but feel his heart tightening. After a few years of news circulating, even the highest rung in Realm Heart Great Land knew about Xue Ying's matter in Broken Tooth Mountain Range. Even though the Death Destruction Clan was not as good in its information gathering system, the great generals under one of the five Great Supremes, 'Supreme Shi Fa', did still know about the name of 'Monarch Flying Snow'.
"It is actually Monarch Flying Snow. No wonder you dared to come, North River." Nofando stared at Xue Ying.
"I am only this courageous." Great Emperor North River smiled.
Suddenly–
"Hua."
The void by the side split open to form a passage. From the distorted void passage, eight figures in total came walking out. The leading person was a benevolent-looking old man wearing a golden robe, and behind him were experts of the Death Destruction Clan with aura that was ever-imposing.
"Supreme." Great General Nofando immediately came to the side. He bowed and greeted respectfully at the Supreme.
"Supreme Shi Fa." Great Emperor North River was no longer as relaxed as before. He became much more solemn now.
The ten god generals under Great Emperor North River became much more nervous.
"Supreme is it?" Xue Ying was curious, though his heart tightened at the advent of a battle.
The reputation of a Supreme preceded him.
Ultimately, the intimidation power of Supremes was tremendous! Before them, ordinary unparalleled existences in Realm Heart Great Land could be easily killed by a single blow from Supremes! Even 'Emperor Summer' would be easily killed instantaneously without any means of retaliation. Even 'Undying Underworld Emperor' could only escape from Great Emperors after igniting his heart blood, yet it was worth being proud for him to withstand a few moves before a 'Supreme'.
This was a 'Supreme'!
Even the strongest 'eight Great Sages' among the low-graded Chaotic Origin Lifeforms in Broken Tooth Mountain Range were greatly weaker than a Supreme. They would simply be trampled upon!
'According to what Great Emperor North River said, Supremes have reached consummation in their bloodlines. Taking another step and they would truly awaken their bloodlines, becoming the ancestors of their race!' Xue Ying sighed inwardly.
Such power was too frightening.
Emperor Deep Stone and other eight Great Sages were simply trampled upon by them.
Even the number one 'Great Emperor North River' among all Great Emperors was weaker by a level as compared to Supremes. Without Xue Ying helping out, he would simply be seeking death for coming to Shi Fa Island.
'It seems he is no longer similar to others from the Death Destruction Clan already.' Xue Ying looked at this old man wearing golden robe walking over on the void, 'Supreme Shi Fa'. The body of Supreme Shi Fa did not give out any dark, evil aura. Instead, he made others feel warm and comfortable. Garbed in a dazzling golden robe, he had a smile on his face. This 'Supreme Shi Fa' smiled at Xue Ying before turning to Great Emperor North River: "North River, knowing that you have invited Monarch Flying Snow from the Realm Heart Great Land before, I would have guessed that you are coming to my place."
"I'll naturally come." Great Emperor North River solemnly said, "Supreme, are you still planning on hindering me this time?"
"Hindering you? I have never hindered your path." Supreme Shi Fa chuckled, "If I planned on stopping you, I could simply entice you deep into the island. And once you are deep inside, I'll send a group of my subordinates to kill you… We can simply bombard you. It won't be too hard for me and my subordinates to kill you either."
Great Emperor North River's expression shifted slightly.
Right.
This was reality!
He could bring with him a group of subordinates. The Supremes could simply summon all their subordinates to kill him. It's just that over the years, the five Great Supremes did not do so! Reaching their level, they were disdainful of doing such acts.
"There are many experts who covet the treasures on my island. It can't be that I would let them take those treasures whenever they want, right?" Supreme Shi Fa chuckled, "It must be a fair trade! Or they could try breaking through my subordinates and defeat me, that way they could naturally take the treasures away. It's a pity that you can't do it. Who can you blame?"
Xue Ying agreed by the side.
Even though most treasures in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range were located in the sky-floating islands! The Natives could always compete for them.
And what they competed on were their strength!
'Interesting. They say most members of the Death Destruction Clan aren't willing to trade. But it seems this Supreme Shi Fa is willing to do so.' Xue Ying clicked his tongue. Xue Ying could not feel any evil and vicious aura from Supreme Shi Fa at all, 'The only thing is that he likes 'doing charity', causing many to return back to death. This personality is quite frightening.'
As different thoughts raced through Xue Ying's mind, Great Emperor North River said solemnly: "Supreme, are we going to fight this time as well? With the help of Brother Flying Snow, I doubt your subordinates are of any use."
"Of course we have to battle." Supreme Shi Fa answered.
Great Emperor North River, the ten god generals, and Xue Ying felt their hearts tightening when they heard that.
Were they about to battle?
Supreme! How strong was one?
"Very good, Supreme, don't blame me for teaming up with others to deal against you." The eyes of Great Emperor North River were filled with frost.
"We do have to battle, but it is fine for me to fight against this cultivator from Realm Heart Great Land, Monarch Flying Snow." Supreme Shi Fa grinned at Xue Ying, "I am not interested in the native experts. I am instead slightly interested in Monarch Flying Snow. Monarch Flying Snow, I've heard that you could cause some Emperors to fall. I do wish to experience your soul technique."
"Me fighting against the Supreme?" Xue Ying was stunned.
No matter what, he could reduce the strength of a Supreme slightly. Even if the Supreme had 10% of his strength, he could easily wipe Xue Ying out! After all, the gap between Eternal Night Primogenitor and other unparalleled existences with the Supremes was still a frighteningly huge gulf.
"Hahaha, you just have to care about executing your moves." Supreme Shi Fa laughed, "I will not bully a weak little cultivator."
Xue Ying felt slightly uncomfortable in his heart.
Weak little cultivator?
In the eyes of the Supremes, all cultivators from the Realm Heart Great Land were weak! Emperor Summer and Undying Underworld Emperor would be sending themselves to death if they came. Fortunately, there was the law restriction by 'Yuan', preventing the Supremes from entering Realm Heart Great Land.
Even though he understood this point, it was not a pleasant feeling to be looked down upon.
"Alright."
The moment Xue Ying spoke, his eyes widened.
"Hong–"
The Mirage and Illusory Realm had already descended upon that Supreme Shi Fa!
Even though his executed technique did not affect the subordinates of the Supreme standing by the side, including Great Emperor North River and the ten god generals as well, all of them could feel a fatalistic allure from the 'eyes' of Xue Ying. That made them turn towards the eyes of Xue Ying subconsciously. This was also a killing technique which he comprehended from the 'gray eyes'. His eyes had similarly become incredibly alluring, resulting in a force that could cause others to yield to him.
It was fortunate that others were watching from afar. They did not suffer from the direct illusory realm, allowing them to easily resist against the technique. Though they were all startled inwardly from the technique.
"Such a formidable soul technique. I wonder how much of my strength would be left if I were to be struck by it." Great Emperor North River and other experts were all slightly startled by the fact.
"Mn?"
Supreme Shi Fa was originally fine, when suddenly, his expression changed.
"Hong–"
A terrifying dark aura erupted from the body of Supreme Shi Fa, charging out in all directions. It engulfed the surrounding world instantaneously, causing the place to turn dark. Others like 'Nofando' and experts from the Death Destruction Clan had been forced backwards. Some were even injured from the shockwave. All of them revealed a look of terror.
"Stop." Great Emperor North River roared.
Many surging sword lights began appearing around Great Emperor North River. Those sword lights filled the place, protecting Xue Ying and the ten god generals.
"Chi chi chi~"
The dark aura clashed with the surging sword lights, causing the sword lights to be diminished over time.
"This, this is simply too powerful." Under the protection of the sword lights, Xue Ying looked around as the sword lights clashed with the dark aura. He felt an innate terror arising in his heart! He had a faint feeling that his body would be shattered the moment he contacted this dark aura.
"Hmph!"
The distant Supreme Shi Fa suddenly let out a cold snort. He forced back his aura and opened his eyes at Xue Ying: "Monarch Flying Snow, you could keep your soul technique now."
Xue Ying immediately brought the technique back.
"What a formidable illusory realm." Supreme Shi Fa sighed, "I could maintain my consciousness against it and even deliberately chose to enter the illusory realm to have a look. Who would have thought that I had suffered from it, causing some aura of mine to leak out. Now that I have experienced such a soul technique, it has indeed broadened my horizons. Monarch Flying Snow, and also North River, you may enter!"

Chapter 1246: Black Leaf Lake
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Xue Ying was dumbstruck.
Most experts would usually try to resist against his illusory realm, yet Supreme Shi Fa took the initiative to enter it instead. He was simply too confident of himself! But clearly, he had suffered from some losses; he was forced to use all his strength to break apart the illusory realm, which was why the terrifying aura leaked out from his body. The aura from any Death Destruction Clan members was originally vicious and terrifying, and this 'Supreme Shi Fa' was concealing it during normal occasions. When he chose to release his aura, it was sufficient to kill even Kings. And Emperors like the God Generals would be injured and forced to retreat. Only 'Great Emperors' could still resist the shockwave of this aura with a slight ease.
"We may enter?" Great Emperor North River revealed a joyous look , "Thank you Supreme Shi Fa then."
"With Monarch Flying Snow around, even if I planned on stopping you, it is impossible." Supreme Shi Fa said, "Go, let me bring you guys in. It'll take too long for the few of you to fly in slowly."
Great Emperor North River did not reject.
At the same time, he was observing Xue Ying in the dark, and observing Supreme Shi Fa too. He was curious. How much had Supreme Shi Fa's strength been influence under Monarch Flying Snow's soul technique? But since he dared to take the initiative in entering the illusory realm, it would not have affected the supreme greatly if he chose to simply resist against it.
'It would most likely be taxing even if I worked together with Monarch Flying Snow against a Supreme.' Great Emperor North River thought, 'But it would at least shorten the gap between me and the Supremes! Furthermore, with Monarch Flying Snow around, I am not afraid of being attacked by a group. What a pity that Monarch Flying Snow would not always be there following me. He even helped Shamanic Wind before previously!'
"Hu."
An unseen energy was released by Supreme Shi Fa. Great Emperor North River was still protecting Xue Ying and the ten god generals with his energy.
"Sou!"
They simply penetrated through the void and arrived deep inside the core of this island.
"We are here."
Supreme Shi Fa's voice sounded.
Everything changed before his eyes. And when Xue Ying looked again, he saw he was beside a fiery-red lake. The fiery-red lake was emitting a shockingly high temperature that caused the void to distort. There were also many pieces of floating black leaves above this lake. Those black leaves were covered the entire region spanning more than 10,000 kilometers. They were in concentric circles, with the inner black leaves becoming bigger than those on the outside.
The core black leaves had a diameter of 50 kilometers long, while those leaves at the outermost perimeter was merely sufficient for three to five ordinary people to stand on.
Other than the black leaves, there were many violet flowers blossoming too.
Just glancing over, Xue Ying could see approximately 100 beautiful flowers, and likewise, the flowers closer to the center were bigger. Paired with those biggest black leaves at the center was a huge violet flower blossoming. That violet flower occupied about one-third the size of a core black leaf.
"Hu–"
These black leaves and violet flowers that scattered across the lake emitted an unseen aura of suppression. It suffocated the experts present.
"North River." Supreme Shi Fa chuckled by the side, "The Black Leaf Lake is here. I won't stop you. The flower dew you collected would all be yours. But you should know that the flower dewdrops of the Black Leaf Lake aren't that easy to collect."
"Rest assured. I have made my preparations." Great Emperor North River first collected the ten god generals. He was afraid that Supreme Shi Fa might strike the god generals while he was collecting the dew. As for Xue Ying? Xue Ying came this time as a precaution, though he had brought several avatars of Xue Ying with him and they were kept in the Eden Treasure which Great Emperor North River had with him.
Even if the avatar located outside suffered from a sneak attack, it would not affect the final outcome.
Great Emperor North River exchanged glances with Xue Ying.
"Great Emperor, you can just go and collect the flower dew. I'll simply look around." Xue Ying was curious about this place.
"Alright." Great Emperor North River nodded. He casually flew towards the outermost piece of black leaf. After lightly landing on this leaf, he rushed over to the closet violet flower…
After Xue Ying witnessed Great Emperor North River taking out a complex item and use it to collect the dew, he went back looking at his surroundings. The surrounding structure extended forever. Even this lake was within an enormous garden enclosed by walls.
"This time, it is because of Monarch Flying Snow's presence. Otherwise, that North River would not have arrived before the Black Leaf Lake." Supreme Shi Fa walked over to the side of Xue Ying, chuckling, "Monarch Flying Snow, given your attainments in the Dao of Soul, why would you help this North River? I believe other Great Emperors are competing over to get closer to you right? If you don't help North River, North River can't do anything to you either."
Xue Ying smiled.
He helped Great Emperor North River because he wanted to stop the war. Of course, since Great Emperor North River had remained polite to him, he chose to acquiesce to the other party.
"Great Emperor North River could give me what I want." Xue Ying immediately diverted the topic after that, "Supreme, why is the suppression from this Black Leaf Lake so frightening?"
Standing by the side of the lake, he had a suffocating feeling.
"You will only feel some slight suppression by standing by the side of the lake." Supreme Shi Fa chuckled, "If you were to step on that black leaf, and the closer you get to the center, the strongest the suppression would get. Even I could not step on the center black leaves."
"Even Supremes can't go there?" Xue Ying was startled.
What kind of strength did a Supreme have? Just the suppression alone was sufficient to hinder a Supreme from entering into the centermost leaf?
"This Black Leaf Lake is related to one of the two incredibly terrifying Chaotic Origin Lifeforms that fell in the past." Supreme Shi Fa sighed, "He had already died, and the remnant energy he left behind had transformed into this Black Leaf Lake that was sufficient to stop even me from entering close to it. I truly do not know how frightening those two existences were if they were still alive."
Xue Ying nodded. After all, existences who could injure Yuan would most likely be close to his level.
"Even though there are more than 100 Black Leaf Flowers, the capabilities of North River in resisting against the suppression aren't better than mine. He would most likely only be able to collect half the dew from the Black Leaf Flowers. Furthermore, this half of the Black Leaf Flowers is also the smallest ones." Supreme Shi Fa lightly chuckled, "The closer to the center, the bigger the flower would be. Like that violet flower located at the core? It spans across several thousand kilometers, and the dew it has would most likely be more than all other flowers added."
"Can I go on to have a look?" Xue Ying asked.
"Naturally you can." Supreme Shi Fa chuckled, "But you have to be careful. Don't touch the lake water as it is blazing hot. With your strength, you would most likely turn into ashes."
"I understand."
Xue Ying immediately flew over heading towards the outermost black leaf.
"He also went over?"
"This Monarch Flying Snow also went over?" Some of the subordinates under Supreme Shi Fa were discussing with one another. The majority of them were unsatisfied! Not all Death Destruction Clan members had good temper.
And Great Emperor North River chuckled when he saw Xue Ying coming. He transmitted: "Brother Flying Snow, do be careful." He then went back to collect the dew.
Lightly descending, the tips of his legs stepped on the black leaf. The black leaf was pliable and tough, and easily supported Xue Ying.
'What a frightening suppression.'
Xue Ying was not interested in the flower dew. Firstly, he did not need them. Secondly, he did not have any unique item meant for collecting them.
He was instead more curious about the suppression of the Black Leaf Lake. The centermost leaf was strong enough to prevent even Supremes from entering over.
"Da da da…"
Xue Ying seemed to be strolling as he walked.
After all, there were many leaves scattered across the entire region, and Xue Ying moved relatively quickly one leaf over to the next. The black leaves underneath his feet also gradually became bigger, and that suppression feeling was getting stronger too.
'What a powerful suppression.' Xue Ying sighed inwardly.
The suppression was directed to the soul.
Over time as he got closer, it felt like an endless mountain pushing down on his soul.
'It is really difficult to move.' Xue Ying tried his best to continue on.
"What?"
Supreme Shi Fa was startled when he saw that, "He actually walked so far?"
"How could he unknowingly walk to such a far distance?" The other Death Destruction Clan experts were all incredibly startled.
"This, how could this be possible?" Even though Great Emperor North River came here to collect the flower dew, he was still constantly aware of his surroundings. When he discovered that Xue Ying had walked in to such a far distance, he could not help but feel astonishment. He regarded the 'Black Leaf Lake' highly. He had already collected a huge amount of information on it, and knew he would unlikely be able to walk this far.
Black Leaf Lake
Gradually.
Xue Ying began showing how laborious it was. But he actually reached another piece of leaf that was closest to the center. That leaf spanned five kilometers in diameter.
'Mn? Even though I find that it is difficult, I am just left with the last lap before reaching the core leaf.' Xue Ying was incredibly stunned. Even though his soul had absorbed the core blood from the 'Myriad Tentacles Dragon Mother' before, he was still ultimately a level-two Cosmos God. And the core blood of Myriad Tentacles Dragon Mother made the soul of this avatar stronger than ordinary final realm experts.
The gap was too great between him and Supremes.
But in terms of willpower, Xue Ying was much higher than these members of the Death Destruction Clan and the Natives who relied simply on their bloodline energy. This was also the advantage cultivators had.
And as he was comprehending the killing technique for the Dao of Mirage and Illusory Realm, his soul had some unique qualitative transformation. Furthermore, he was the number one expert in the Dao of Soul. He could easily control his soul energy to turn into a vast world, using it to resist against the suppression of the soul!
"This can't be!" Supreme Shi Fa was startled.
"Unless…" Great Emperor North River who was collecting the flower dew suddenly stopped. He turned to Xue Ying.
Under their observation, Xue Ying continued without stopping. He finally stepped onto the biggest piece of black leaf in the entire Black Leaf Lake.
"Weng!"
Right at the moment Xue Ying stepped on the core leaf, that biggest Black Leaf Flower also emitted a dazzling violet light that shone in all directions. It also shone on Xue Ying himself.
