Chapter 4165 Emperor's Tribulation (1/2)
"The Wuding Sea of Gods and the surrounding star fields have completely transformed into the ancestral order field of the Space-Time Ancestor."
"This is his absolute self-world, with the strongest ruling power."
"They are connected to each other - before, it was just a powerful space formation at the Lord of the Fallen God Island. But here at the Space-Time Ancestor, I'm afraid he can do it with just a thought. Even if there is an endless sea of stars between them, they can cross it in one step."
...
Zhang Ruochen recounted the experience of the tentative confrontation with the Space-Time Ancestor in the Sword Realm, and exchanged information with Ji Fanxin.
In the final analysis, the two of them had very limited understanding of the Space-Time Ancestor.
They had only had tentative confrontations.
Only by exchanging information can we better understand the opponent.
Zhang Ruochen and Ji Fanxin walked out of the Stardust Valley side by side, and the ancestral aura on their bodies filled the world, like the emperor and the empress going to war.
Walking towards the Wuding Sea of Gods tens of trillions of miles away, there was a magnificent power that dominated the universe.
Zhang Ruochen was followed by five figures, all of whom were majestic and transcendental, standing on the top of the sea of stars, and could rule one side of the universe.
They were:
Chi Yao, holding a blood-dripping sword in one hand and a chaotic lotus of time and space in the other, with the twenty-six-layer universe above her head, and her magic was unparalleled.
The "Golden Burial White Tiger" stepped on a golden ocean, and the word "burial" on its head illuminated the starry sky. The Doomsday Fortress of the Unfixed Sea of Gods was built with the Beize Great Wall and the gold burial material. It had the confidence to help Zhang Ruochen break it.
The "Moyin" returned to its ancestral form and turned into the Swallowing Cloud Demon Vine. The vine covered the area and turned into a nine-color nebula, covering the sky and the sun.
The "Angry God" stepped on the Styx, with the twenty-seven-layer universe of the Immovable King above his head.
The "Spirit Swallow" stood in a Tai Chi circle, and the Tai Chi circle was filled with the Hongmeng Qi. She seemed to be nurturing a universe, and the Tai Chi circle was the outline of the universe.
Behind Ji Fanxin, only Lady Shiji followed, who was extremely beautiful.
She was the ancestor, and had a beauty that could be recorded in history. But standing next to Ji Fanxin, she became a foil, like a star accompanying the moon.
Zhang Ruochen continued: "That day I was only a few feet away from his true body. But even if I exploded myself, the possibility of taking him away or severely damaging his origin was no more than 50%. Forcing him to leave the Wuding Shenhai, or destroying the Wuding Shenhai, breaking his order field, it would not be so easy for him to get out of it unscathed!"
"Even if the Wuding Shenhai was destroyed, he still had the God Realm. How many years has he been operating the Wuding Shenhai?" Ji Fanxin raised his head slightly and looked at the end of the thousands of sacrificial light pillars.
Zhang Ruochen asked, "How much do you know about the God Realm?"
"The Dark Ancestor may know more, but I... don't know more than you. Of course, I am referring to the ultimate secret hidden by the Human Ancestor in the God Realm. As for the earth veins and cultural customs of the God Realm, these things can be calculated with the fingers."
Then, Ji Fanxin said, "Why do you think the Human Ancestor is not afraid of you and me joining forces? Apart from the 72-story tower, what is his biggest reliance?"
Zhang Ruochen had already thought deeply about it, and believed that Ji Fanxin must have thought it through thoroughly.
She asked this question, obviously wanting to reach a consensus with him before taking action.
Zhang Ruochen said, "I can see three major threats. The depth of the God Realm, the unknown of the Heaven and Earth Altar, and the destructive storm of the Ancestral God Source."
Zhang Ruochen was determined to explode himself and perish with the Time and Space Human Ancestor.
But he stared into the abyss, and the abyss was also staring at him?
How could the Time and Space Human Ancestor not use this trick?
There are only a few ways to kill the ancestor or severely injure him. This is the most effective way to kill Zhang Ruochen before the duel.
Niangniang Shiji frowned and shook her head, saying, "Impossible. The God Realm is in a dominant position. Even if Di Chen and the girl join forces, we can only compete with each other. How could the ancestors of the God Realm be willing to self-destruct their divine source and perish with us?"
"That's right. Unless it's a desperate situation, no ancestor will choose to self-destruct his divine source. Since ancient times, there has only been one person like Ksitigarbha. Including Di Chen today, do you still have the resolute determination to perish with the ancestor of time and space?" Ji Fanxin looked at Zhang Ruochen.
When there is a chance to win, or to say, when there is the strength to force the ancestor of time and space to give in and compromise, Zhang Ruochen really can't do it at the first time.
It's not that Zhang Ruochen has lost his will to die, but he has seen hope.
If there is a chance to live, who is willing to die?
Once the fire of hope is ignited, the ancestor loses the ability to perish with the enemy. The Human Ancestor of Space and Time will have countless ways to put Zhang Ruochen to death.
Just like the Corpse Nightmare at the beginning!
If the Corpse Nightmare had been determined to perish with the enemy from the beginning, whether it was Zhang Ruochen, the Second Confucian Ancestor, or the Lord of Darkness, they would definitely avoid his edge and dare not approach him.
It was because he did not have such a determination at the beginning that he died in the hands of a group of cultivators below the First Ancestor.
Zhang Ruochen must look directly into his heart. At this moment, he is actually not much different from the Corpse Nightmare at the beginning.
Zhang Ruochen said: "Before joining forces with you, the Human Ancestor of Space and Time would be afraid of me. After joining forces with you, the Human Ancestor of Space and Time is not afraid anymore! In the end, if we cannot crush each other in terms of cultivation and combat power, we can only look for opportunities from human nature."
Ji Fan thought: "Yan Tingqiu thinks highly of himself and will never self-destruct the First Ancestor's Divine Heart, so he can be excluded first."
Zhang Ruochen said: "Human Ancestor will safely hand over Huang Yue to the Dark Lord. He must have arranged a method in Huang Yue. However, if Huang Yue will make the Dark Lord unable to control his life or death, I think with his spirit, he will never Will compromise. So the Dark Lord can be eliminated second."
Ji Fan thought to himself: "Master Murong... have you seen the origin of his soul consciousness?"
"When I first met, I felt familiar. But after all, he is the true ancestor and can hide the secrets and the past. I have not yet been able to understand the cause and effect on him." Zhang Ruochen said.
Even if his cultivation level reaches the level of Zhang Ruochen and Ji Fanxin, the First Ancestor still has some ability to counterattack.
Just like Zhang Ruochen, with his state of beginning and end, he can counterattack the ancestors of time and space to a certain extent.
Ji Fan thought: "Before Master Murong was severely injured by the Xuding, the ancestor's divine heart must not have been controlled by the human ancestor. Now, it's hard to say!"
"The ancestor has a unique destiny and can distract the whole universe. How can his divine heart be controlled?"
As the ancestor, Empress Shiji had a strong say.
Although she believed that she was no match for someone like Zhang Ruochen, she might not even be able to escape. But it was impossible for Zhang Ruochen to enslave her and manipulate her at will.
"Destroy its will, obliterate its nature. Break its way and enslave its soul. How could it be impossible with Human Ancestor's cultivation level? At that time, Ren Ancestor only had to think about it, and Master Murong would explode his divine heart to attack us. ”
Immediately afterwards, Ji Fanxin said: "Of course, the ancestor in this state can no longer be called the ancestor. It is just a puppet. His spiritual will and combat power will be far less than the original Lord Murong. This is the basis for my judgment! "
"For such an ancestor, could Brahma Heart use mental power to suppress his self-explosion divine source?" Zhang Ruochen asked.
Ji Fan thought: "It depends on whether the one who fights against me is the ancestor himself or the human ancestor behind the ancestor. What's more, it depends on the state of everyone. In short, any monk must be extremely vigilant about the ancestor's self-destruction of the divine source. . Otherwise, even if you don’t die, you will be doomed and become the prey of Human Ancestor.”
"Actually, there is another person who I am very worried about." Zhang Ruochen said.
Ji Fan thought: "A demon?"
During the time of rescuing the devil, both the Nine-Dead Emperor and the old drunkard were in the God Realm. Zhang Ruochen was not surprised that Ji Fanxin knew about this.
Besides, how many secrets are there in the universe that can't be concealed from a ninety-seventh-level mental power?
The demon never showed up.
In addition, the rescue process went too smoothly.
In addition, it was too strange that the demon could survive to this era, so Zhang Ruochen had always been suspicious.
It is extremely difficult for the ancestors of time and space to destroy Murong's mind and enslave his soul in a short period of time.
But the demon has been imprisoned in the God Realm for more than ten million years, and the ancestors of time and space have too much time to plan for him.
It was not until this moment that Chi Yao and God Nu Tian suddenly realized that, standing at the level of Zhang Ruochen and Ji Fanxin, they had never regarded Tian Mo as an ally, but as a huge uncertainty.
If you want to find him, you just want to confirm your guess or directly eliminate the hidden danger.
Given thought: "Actually, the most terrifying thing about the ancestor is the spiritual will of the ancestor. Without this spiritual will, self-destructing the divine source below the ninety-sixth level is not so terrible."
Many people present raised eyebrows.
How does this mean that we don’t take our ancestors seriously?
This is to ignore the ancestor's self-destruction and fight to the death.
But thinking about the "ninety-seventh level" spiritual power, it is probably the only one in the entire universe from ancient times to the present. What kind of methods does she have? It's hard for ancestors like Zhang Ruochen and Empress Shi Ji to guess, let alone the monks who are their ancestors?
Given thought: "In my opinion, the biggest threat is the Altar of Heaven and Earth."
Zhang Ruochen nodded in approval: "The ancestor's self-destruction of the divine source was on the surface, and we will naturally think about countermeasures in advance. But the altar of heaven and earth consumes most of the resources in the universe, so it will never be a decoration. And it has been built since ancient times. Those altars in the universe are probably part of the human ancestors' layout. Such a long time and such a huge group of altars will subvert our imagination if it turns out to be some kind of method. "
"The most terrifying thing is what you can't see through." Ji Fan thought to himself.
The eight people moved forward, one step at a time, rapidly closing the distance to the Wuding Divine Sea.
It has entered the order field arranged by Human Ancestor in this star field.
Zhang Ruochen's momentum continued to rise, and the escaping divine energy and rules pushed away the order field, saying: "No matter what, we must first destroy the main altar and the more than 5,000 heaven and earth altars on the Wudingshen Sea. The attitude of Ren Zu is very Weird, we can't go into danger together, leave this matter to me, Brahma Heart, you stay outside the Wuding Divine Sea to deal with any emergencies."
"You want to fight against the Ancestor of Time and Space alone?" Ji Fan thought to himself.
"With my current level of cultivation, I'm afraid it's not enough. However, if I can force him to use his trump card first and see his strategy clearly, the advantage will be in our favor."
Zhang Ruochen raised his hands slightly and released all the nine cauldrons.
Including the Xuding just obtained from Givenchy.
The Jiuding slowly rotated and rose around his body, quickly becoming larger and heavier, bursting out with brighter and brighter brilliance, distorting time and space, and day and night alternated.
legend:
The one who obtains the Nine Cauldrons will command the world, all tribes will obey, and all the heavens will worship.
In the countless years of the universe, Jiuding has almost never been gathered together. Now that the Nine Cauldrons are unified, a qualitative change immediately occurs, and the mutual pull makes the entire universe tremble.
…
"Nine flows caused the laws of heaven and earth to boil, and they all converged towards the northern universe!"
"It's not the northern universe, it's the Great Wall of Beize further north, it's the Wuding Divine Sea."
"Look...what is that? Nine...nine divine stars rise, lighting up the entire north...the starry sky is lit up..."
The monks in hell and heaven were all shocked. No matter how remote they were, they all saw nine huge stars rising from the end of the northern star sea.
So bright!
The aura of power that burst out, like the nine ancient witch ancestors, came to this era together, making many monks feel inexplicable awe and emotion, and then knelt down and worshiped.
…
Wentianjun stepped on the huge corpse of the ancestor King Yaksha and looked into the north.
What he saw was not only Zhang Ruochen holding up the Jiuding.
There are also seven other people standing with Zhang Ruochen on the shore of the Undefinite Sea of Gods, facing the wind and waves. And, in the dark void, the gods of the sword world are fleeing like grains of light.
"This apocalyptic showdown between the ancestor, the great emperor, and the immortal finally broke out in the Sword World Star Territory!"
Wentianjun sighed, and after suppressing the ancestor King Yasha to the divine world, he quickly disappeared into the darkness.
We must find Monk Candeng.
Only Wentianjun knows how powerful this monk is to untie his heart knot and take off his Buddhist robes. He is a being who can influence the direction of the war.
Can Deng was originally invited to this universe.
…
The majestic underworld city is entwined with a swastika green dragon.
After Yan Wushen absorbed the ancestor substance and blood energy from the corpse of the ancestor of the zombie nightmare, his physical injuries healed in a very short time, and the blood energy in his body was not inferior to that of the real ancestor, reaching an unprecedented level of exuberance.
But the injury to the soul had a greater impact than he imagined.
This makes him unable to attack the Ancestral Realm at all.
After the swastika green dragon absorbed the bones of the Hongmeng black dragon, its physical body took a further step. Each dragon scale was like a green fairy emerald, and it could always catch up with Yan Wushen's footsteps.
One person and one dragon, facing the ancestor, can also collide head-on.
"Which ancestor in ancient times can compare to such earth-shattering weather? Zhang Ruochen, who wields the Nine Cauldrons, is truly a great emperor, and he can challenge the immortals."
Yan Wushen stood on the top of the Underworld City with his hands behind his back, the blood in his body boiling, excited to have such a rival of the same generation in his life.
But there was loneliness and unwillingness that could not be concealed in his eyes.
Such a life-and-death confrontation between the ancestor, the great emperor, and the immortal has rarely been encountered throughout the ages, but he has no part in it and cannot participate in it. How could a person like him not suffer?
…
The wasteland universe.
Baozhu Ksitigarbha led a large number of monks to walk on the Santu River and headed towards the hell realm.
Seeing the nine divine stars rising in the north of the universe, with wonderful eyes, he inserted his Zen staff on the ground, knelt down first, and worshiped.
The monks behind him stopped to bow and recite unknown scriptures.
…
The Ancestor of Time and Space stood on the top of the main altar, with the blue sea reaching the sky below his feet, looking at Zhang Ruochen who was hundreds of billions of miles away on the seaside, and said: "Are you so anxious to take action? I thought you would wait until the breakthrough is consistent."
"Wouldn't that make Zu wait for a long time?"
Zhang Ruochen's majestic appearance resembled an ancient sacred mountain, and his powerful voice spread to the sky: "I am in charge of the Nine Cauldrons, commanding all living beings and all the ways in the universe, and I will be proclaimed emperor today! Everything illuminated by the stars is the emperor's realm. The sea embraces all rivers and encompasses everything."
With every word he spat out, Zhang Ruochen took a step forward, his momentum rising.
The word "xiang" falls and the momentum reaches its peak.
The Jiuding is like a handprint of heaven and earth made by each of the nine witch ancestors, flying towards the Wuding Divine Sea.
The Ancestor of Time and Space pointed out with a wave of his arm.
"Wow! Wow! Wow..."
In the infinite sea of spirits for hundreds of billions of miles, divine formations are rising regardless of the bottom, surface, or sea.
The formation inscriptions spread to the entire Sword Realm star field, covering the five people including Ji Fanxin, Empress Shiji, and Chi Yao who were standing on the seaside.
Ji Fan was calm and had no intention of taking action.
The remaining monks used their own methods to resist the formation arranged by the ancestors of time and space.
"Boom!"
Jiuding fell from nine different directions, the light burned, the darkness devoured, the origin was refined, the truth was tamed... Countless formations were shattered, the pressure caused the seawater to sink, and time and space broke.
The Xuding is located in the center of the Nine Cauldrons. It is more powerful than the Anti-God Monument and can erase all inscriptions in the world.
"Wow!"
On Wudingshen Sea, not only more than 5,000 heaven and earth altars released sacrificial beams of light. Those altars that have been built on planets, islands, and the big world since ancient times have all been activated by the ancestors of time and space and are connected to the divine world.
Hundreds of millions of light pillars coexist, stabilizing the world and blocking the Nine Cauldrons.
"The Wuding Divine Sea is my realm. Even if the Great Emperor comes and the Nine Cauldrons are reunited, they still have to retreat." The Ancestor of Time and Space said calmly.
"What this emperor wants to destroy is the realm of human ancestors."
Zhang Ruochen stepped onto the water and immediately formed a footprint of heaven.
As if being resonated, starting from Zhang Ruochen's feet, footprints entered the formation and the altar light pillar, and continued along the surface towards Guixu, ascending to the Kingdom of the Underworld and the Sword Realm.
The ancestor of time and space let out a light sigh.
These footprints were left by Zhang Ruochen when he returned to the Sword Realm. Each footprint contains the Wuji Dao Yun and is a Tao mark that only belongs to him.
Hidden in "nothing", hidden in "void".
Obviously, Zhang Ruochen had long been prepared to return to the sword world and had a backup plan.
"break!"
Read one word.
This long footprint tore through the order field of the ancestor of time and space, broke through all the formations and altars on the path, and opened a path on the Wuding Sea.
Zhang Ruochen rushed in from the crack with a sword.
"Zhang Ruochen, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" The voice of the Dark Lord sounded.
A Wanxiang Invisible Seal that connected the sky and the earth rose on the sea surface, and came over in the rolling waves.
Zhang Ruochen swung his sword, and his sword intent ran through the past and the present, containing the taste of creation, which was absolutely incomparable to Sword 27.
"Wow——"
The Wanxiang Invisible Seal was broken by a sword, unstoppable.
Zhang Ruochen locked the position of the Dark Lord and immediately slashed the second sword.
The Dark Lord's strongest point is his hands, which are interwoven with the rules and order of the "Heaven Begins and Ends" level strongmen, and will not be destroyed after thousands of years. Therefore, he took Zhang Ruochen's sword with his bare hands,
"Bang!"
The Dark Lord retreated back after a collision.
A blood mark appeared on the palm of the black hand. The rule and order of "the beginning of the sky ends with the end of the sky" was unstoppable.
"How long has it been since then? He has become so much stronger?"
The Lord of Darkness knew that Zhang Ruochen had obtained the secret of the nightmare of quantity and was constantly absorbing the power of quantity from Lihentian, but he did not expect that his cultivation would improve so quickly.
"Swish! Swish——"
The Nine Cauldrons, as well as Chi Yao, the buried gold white tiger, the swallowing cloud magic vine, the spirit swallow, and the angry sky god entered the Wuding Sea of God and quickly joined Zhang Ruochen.
The five powerful men entered Zhang Ruochen's small world and turned into five groups of Dao light, coexisting with the other 49 groups of Dao light.
As for the 55th group of Dao light "Strange Domain", it has been in Zhang Ruochen's body.
In an instant, Zhang Ruochen's power climbed to a new height, and the brilliance it burst out was better than all the stars in the world.
"Boom!"
Step by step forward, the altars of heaven and earth were trampled on the places they passed by.
The water of the Wuding Sea of God rolled and boiled endlessly.
"Bai Yuan's resurrection is probably just like this!"
Seeing Zhang Ruochen's aura and fighting power, the Dark Lord immediately retreated, not wanting to fight the peerless emperor to death for the ancestor of time and space.
Outside the distant starry sky, the second Confucian ancestor wanted to descend to the heavens to make Zhang Ruochen lose sight of the other and confuse his mind.
Beside the Wuding Sea of Gods, Ji Fanxin was well prepared. She took out the Tianji pen and wrote on the "Book of Life and Death" stroke by stroke.
Every stroke turned into a heavenly sword that cut through the universe.
The "Book of Life and Death" burned.
When the word "Yan" was written, the second Confucian ancestor realized that something was wrong and decisively retreated to the God Realm.
Ji Fanxin did not continue writing, not wanting to be distracted by the second Confucian ancestor. The real enemy of her and Zhang Ruochen was the ancestor of time and space.
"Something is wrong!" Ji Fanxin noticed something and looked towards Guixu.
"What's wrong?"
When Niangniang Shiji asked this question, Zhang Ruochen had already entered Guixu and landed on the Sword Realm Continent.
Zhang Ruochen also felt uneasy, thinking that the ancestor of time and space should not be so useless, so he stopped when he arrived at the bottom of the main altar.
An old figure, with a dull look in his eyes, stumbled out of the altar.
"Jie Lao!"
Zhang Ruochen's tone was calm, but his heart was already surging with anger and murderous intent.
However, reason overcame everything and he immediately retreated and fled.
He didn't want to cause Chi Yao, Ling Yanzi, and the God of Wrath to die here.
But...
It was still too late!
"Why am I here?"
Jie Tian suddenly woke up, and before he could observe the surroundings, the ancestral divine source of the Great Lord of Acala in his body burst into a blazing light, and his body was instantly reduced to ashes.
The destructive light tore through the sky and the earth, and in a flash, it caught up with Zhang Ruochen who was retreating in the space dimension and spread to his heart.
Chi Yao, Angry God, Lingyanzi, Buried Gold White Tiger, and Swallowing Cloud Demon Vine could not bear it at all. In the destructive light of the ancestor's self-detonation of the divine source, their bodies, souls, divine seas, and divine sources all showed dense cracks.
At this moment, Zhang Ruochen's mind was filled with thousands of thoughts.
The ancestor divine source of Ji Tian was arranged by the Lord of the Fallen God Island. Zhang Ruochen knew about this. As early as the Chaos Clan in the Dark Abyss, Ji Tian relied on the talisman given by the Lord of the Fallen God Island to mobilize the stronger power in the ancestor divine source.
In the Heavenly Court, Zhang Ruochen carefully explored the ancestor divine source in Ji Tian's body and did not find any problems.
But facing the ancestor of time and space, how could Zhang Ruochen dare to have a fluke mentality?
Therefore, this time when he came to the Wuding Divine Sea, he did not bring Ji Tian and the sundial connected to the ancestor of time and space, and left them in the Temple of Truth.
He also let Haotian watch Ji Tian.
Just in case!
Since Ji Tian appeared here, it undoubtedly means that the Heavenly Court has also undergone a huge change.
The ancestral divine source in the bodies of the Ten Thousand Generations Nine Ancestors is not scary, because those ancestral divine sources have existed for hundreds of millions of years, and the internal ancestral power is only one tenth of it. Zhang Ruochen believes that he can withstand it. The ancestral divine source of the Great Venerable Acalanatha belongs to this era, and the ancestral power is even better than that of Ksitigarbha.
He was careful enough, but still made a big mistake.
At this moment of life and death, Zhang Ruochen finally understood that weaknesses are weaknesses and cannot be made up for at all! The ancestor of time and space never intended to threaten him with the people he cared about, but determined that he would not kill Ji Tian.
Because of the deep feelings, he did not kill Ji Tian in advance to eliminate the hidden dangers, so he had to pay the most tragic price for this weakness.
