Start from the God of Death and break through the world.

Chapter 1184 Martial Emperor
"wrong!"

Lu Li roared angrily, looking up at the empty space in the sky, "How dare you corrupt my Dao heart!"

He instantly understood that it wasn't that he was incapable; the reason he wasn't at the tenth level wasn't because he lacked the talent, aptitude, and potential, but simply because someone had blocked his path.

In an instant, he realized that the situation above was truly dire. Otherwise, how could that Martial Emperor allow the enemy to cut off his path? After all, he was his former son-in-law, so he was definitely one of his own.

It can only be said that, over the long years, Emperor Wu had been fighting against many enemies, and he had probably reached a point where his strength was exhausted. This is why more and more shadows descended upon the world, and shockwaves attacked the world's ocean during this period.

In this situation, it's not that the other party is powerless to interfere with the future; it's likely that Lu Li's path to the future has already been cut off, making it impossible for him to attain enlightenment.

Lu Li was unwilling to accept this, and he did not believe that the road was dead and that everything was over. Even if there was no road, he would still find a way!

He recalled what Grandma Xue had said that day: achieving the tenth level is not something that can be accomplished by simply waiting for time; talent, ability, and opportunity are all indispensable. So where should his opportunity lie?
If his future path is blocked, where can he go?

Lu Li calmed down and thought it over. The signs that he was about to transform into the Dao suddenly stopped, because he had really found a path!

To transcend time and cause and effect, to escape the cycle of reincarnation, and to prove only oneself!
…………

On the other side, at a node in the vast river of time and space, there stands a section of the Great Wall stretching for an unknown distance.

The Great Wall is truly mysterious. Not only did it have a starting point thousands of years ago, but it continues to extend and is being built up over time.

It is precisely because of the existence of this Great Wall of Time that this period of time, from the era of Emperor Wu to the present, has been stable and has never been arbitrarily manipulated by something beyond reason.

Each section of the Great Wall has a guard whose strength is at least at the forbidden level, in order to continuously inject energy to maintain the Great Wall's resistance to impacts.

Ordinary taboos, if they want to travel through the river of time, will inevitably be punished by the World Sea, at best severely injured, at worst killed. However, not every taboo expert here has the power to resist the punishment of the World Sea.

They were not punished, firstly because they simply leaped up without manipulating or altering history, and secondly because they were diligently protecting the time of the World Sea, which possessed a certain consciousness and could naturally distinguish who was beneficial to it.

If Lu Li could come to this place, he would see many old friends and truly appreciate the profound meaning of the space.

Throughout history, how many strong people have there been?
Even after the great catastrophe, there were quite a few people who were resurrected by Emperor Wu. However, the space within the World Sea now looks very desolate. At its worst, there were only three forbidden beings, Manjusaka, on the surface.

It turns out that the strong had already embarked on their journey, carrying heavy burdens.

As the wave surged, a woman in black with purple patterns leaped up and punched into the void, partially neutralizing the shockwave. By the time it struck the Great Wall of Time, it had lost much of its power and could be blocked.

Even so, looking around, one can see that there are several gaps in the Great Wall of Time. It was through these gaps that forces broke through the Great Wall and descended into the Sea of ​​Worlds.

"Honey, the situation is really not good."

Someone walked up to the woman in black, looking worried.

"Stop making sarcastic remarks, my son is invincible, guard your territory well."

Xue Zhiyu said in an annoyed tone.

Countless powerful figures are stationed on the Great Wall. If any forbidden beings from the Primordial God Realm were to come here, they would be surprised to find that there are still some old forbidden beings here whom they once thought were no longer alive.

"Senior Xia, you should go back. If something happens to you here, wouldn't that cause even bigger trouble?"

On another section of the Great Wall, a younger person was advising a woman.

"Hey, I don't like hearing that. It makes it sound like I'm weak. How could I possibly be in any danger?"

The woman raised her delicate eyebrows, clearly displeased. But the next moment, a shockwave struck, causing a jolt that threw her off the ground. When she landed, she was covered in sweat and still shaken.

"Um... what you said makes sense, I'll back down a bit more."

This time, the woman wasn't so forceful and obediently stepped back a bit.

On the other side, there was a seminar discussing tactics, but the battle over there was between tenth-level opponents. How could they possibly come up with any tactics that could turn the tide of the battle?

One of the men, however, was repeatedly scolded, but could only manage a wry smile and remain silent.

"Gentlemen, I admit it's my fault, so let's not bring it up again. Now let's focus on consolidating the Great Wall and pray for Emperor Wu's early victory."

The man was dressed in a scholar's robe, handsome and dashing, giving off an air of wisdom. He was the contemporary taboo of time, and also the scapegoat in everyone's eyes.

"Alright, you've rested enough, Tianji. Hurry up and change shifts. I'm not really blaming you, I'm just bored and wanted to yell at you."

One of the powerful figures stood up and spoke, and judging from his words, he had often cursed this man known as Tianji.

Tianji had no choice but to accept it and began setting up the Great Wall of Time, allowing everyone to take turns defending. After all, it was an impact beyond the realm of common sense. Even with the secret treasure blessed by the Martial Emperor and the power of time, everyone would need to recover after being impacted behind the wall.

In fact, those present didn't know the real reason for the current time taboo. Everyone knew that the essence of it was the exhaustion of the original power left by the tenth-level Space Ancestor, which caused time to go out of control. Even if the old time taboo came, it would still be difficult to handle.

However, everyone had known Tianji for a long time and considered him a close friend. Now that the situation was truly frustrating, they scolded him a couple of times, actually to make Tianji feel better.

boom--

After another wave of impact, the Great Wall of Time trembled three times. In the central control area, Xue Zhiyu once again blocked a major force with a punch.

To her left, several powerful figures joined forces to block some of the impact, including her beloved granddaughter, Lu Xueqing.

To her right were some powerful individuals who had recently arrived here. Xue Zhiyu was overjoyed to see them, but also lamented that they shouldn't have met for the first time in this kind of setting.

It was through Lu Xueqing's introduction that Lu Wangyou addressed her as "great-grandmother."

"That wretched brat, is he even capable? It seems his path is truly blocked. If he really can't do it, I'll personally go down and give him a good beating before we reach the finish line!"

Beside Lu Xueqing was a tall, imposing man. She showed a respectful and obedient demeanor towards him, as he was her grandfather.

"Father, take me with you when you go. He's gone too far! How dare he betray my little darling like this!"

A woman dressed in a chivalrous outfit chimed in from the side.

Lu Xueqing felt uncomfortable, mainly because it was in front of so many people. She was a grown woman and a mother herself, and being called "little baby" made her feel quite embarrassed.

"mother……"

Lu Xueqing really wanted to tell him honestly that the two of them probably couldn't beat him, but she felt that this would escalate the conflict. "Hmph, Qing'er, don't worry, if Mother can't beat him, she'll go to Grandpa. Grandpa listens to me."

Lu Ning snorted coldly.

This time, Lu Xueqing had nothing to say. If the Martial Emperor were to take action personally, he could naturally suppress her husband, at least he could suppress her husband now.

"Alright, stop messing around, bro. You're really something else. What era are we living in? Why are you still so nosy?"

At this moment, another woman in white with unparalleled beauty came along and tried to smooth things over.

The Martial King, whom Lu Xueqing called Grandpa, became even angrier upon hearing this. "I haven't even said anything to you yet! How could you have three boyfriends?! You're disgracing the family!"

But the woman just sneered and retorted sharply to her brother, "You men are allowed to have three wives and four concubines, but we women aren't allowed to have three thousand lovers? I have three lovers, I'm happy, what's it to you?"

"You...you should tell that to Dad, and see if he beats you or not!"

King Wu said with frustration, "Actually, I could suppress my sister, but I just can't bear to hit her."

However, after he said that, the woman didn't dare to talk back, clearly still a little afraid of her father.

The whole family, young and old, were here, and they all joined forces, but they could only barely hold off the storm, which shows the difference in strength.

Many things don't just come about by waiting. The strongest on the left was the man known as Senior Martial King. It took him and others to hold them off, but he was slightly inferior to his grandmother.

On the right, Lu Wuyou alone blocked a large-scale shockwave, demonstrating that her strength was no less than that of her great-grandmother, which shows the cruelty of the path of talent.

In addition, many of the elders who were close to their families had not made any progress in strength even after thousands of epochs, because they had already reached their limits and were here more to stabilize morale.

"Grandma, I want to go up and help."

Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Lu Wuyou made a suggestion.

“No, you are still young. If you fight the tide again, you may be able to advance further. If you go directly into the battlefield, there will be constant surprises and dangers. My son, I still need to take care of you.”

Xue Zhiyu rejected Lu Wuyou's idea.

Lu Wuyou looked worried and then looked down at the River of Time. "But my father's path has been cut off. If we wait like this, we may all die. It's better to go and help my grandfather, Grandfather Shenwu, who is still in good condition. If we can gain some insight in the battle, there may still be a chance."

As she spoke, she looked at the demon grandfather she had brought under her supervision, "Or perhaps..."

"Don't mention either of these things again."

Xue Zhiyu refused, saying that she felt the tenth level was not something that could be broken through in the heat of battle, and that Wangyou would be sending herself to her death.

As for the Demon God, she had considered it, but ultimately felt the risk was too high.

On the other hand, the demon god seemed quite pleased to be here, as if he was pleased to see everyone's distress and the Emperor Wu's obstruction.

Only its gaze lingered in the distance, seemingly meeting the shadow's gaze with an intensely somber expression.

At this moment, beyond the realm of common sense, four powerful individuals are engaged in a fierce battle.

The legendary Origin Emperor, a man who could hold off ten thousand men, cleaved through the heavens with a single slash, commanding the tide of events and preventing his three opponents from retreating beyond the bounds of reason.

Contrary to his previous fierce battles, where he had once fought with all his might to drag the Ancestor of All Calamities into the realm of common sense before a victor was decided, he now intended to severely restrict his enemy to the realm of common sense, which was not his forte.

The reason is simple: once they deviate from the realm of common sense, their battle would instantly destroy eternity, a price he cannot afford.

If it were a one-on-one situation, he might be able to focus on protecting the World Sea, but now he is fighting against three opponents. If the battle were conducted in a normal manner, it would all be over in an instant.

He cannot be resurrected by the life killed by the tenth rank, and he will suffer immense pain that he cannot bear.

"Emperor Wu, can't you see through this? This matter doesn't require the fall of a tenth-tier being to be resolved!"

In the midst of the fierce battle, a strangely shaped creature, neither beast nor human, spoke up. It seemed to be advising Emperor Wu that it was not necessary to fight to the death.

"I can't see through it?"

Emperor Wu laughed heartily, "If you can see through this, why make things difficult for me?"

"It's not too late now. If Emperor Wu can make concessions, I promise that I will not harm anyone you care about, and will only take this realm."

A being that did not have a solid body and was like a flowing cloud spoke.

"My two fellow Daoists and I have reached a consensus. We understand that the Martial Emperor cherishes those around him. We simply desire the complete World Sea."

The last one to speak appeared to be a humanoid being, though its appearance was elusive, resembling a shadow. It seemed to wield considerable authority, and after it spoke, the other two supreme beings nodded in agreement.

"Haha, you all couldn't persuade the person I care about in the slightest just now, is that true?"

Emperor Wu laughed heartily.

One of the Martial Emperors of the Flowing Clouds relented and replied, "Naturally, it is true."

Emperor Wu looked down upon the three supreme beings who defied all reason and declared, "Then I shall say this: what I care about are all the people of the world. What do you await?"

In an instant, the powerful Liu Yun was enraged, feeling that the Martial Emperor was playing a trick on him.

Their purpose was simple: to do two things. First, to eliminate time from the world and return it to its original state of disorder.

Secondly, after time disappears, they must rebuild a true world that conforms to common sense from the original single point of world convergence. After that, new, defined tenth-order worlds can be continuously born.

This was the result of their individual deductions, which were later corroborated by each other. They were very certain that the original world must have been the best form, otherwise how could the progenitor of space and the progenitor of all calamities have been so easily born in the disordered spacetime?
"Emperor Wu, we are on the side of righteousness, yet you remain stubborn and unyielding. How long will you fight for those false spirits? Or do you insist on becoming the only tenth-tier being throughout history, dominating everything?!"

The powerful figure in the shadows roared angrily.

"Great righteousness? What's so great about the tenth level? Why have so many? Haven't you all had close companions? Instead of looking back at them, why do you want to build some kind of true realm?"

Emperor Wu sneered, "Don't try to pin this on me. I have never considered myself the master of everything like you do."
