Simulation of the Heavens: Starting from the Age of Desolation

Chapter 133 Breaking Through the World Realm to Face the Black Lotus God Emperor
Black Lotus Capital.

The Black Lotus God Emperor, draped in a black robe, sat cross-legged on a black lotus platform. He exuded a terrifying aura, and beams of light surged around him.

Clearly, the Black Lotus God Emperor is practicing some kind of secret technique.

The Black Lotus God Emperor once ventured out into the world, seeking an opportunity to break through to the Dao Lord realm. However, as time went on, he gradually realized that it was almost impossible for him to forge his own path.

So he returned to the Great Mo Domain and established the Black Lotus Empire near the Seven Star Water.

The Black Lotus God Emperor originally only wanted to be a local tyrant.

But now that his true identity, "Black Lotus Daoist," has been exposed, the Black Lotus God Emperor naturally understands that there may be enemies he doesn't know about coming to his door, so he begins to make some preparations.

But there are both disadvantages and advantages.

Once his identity is exposed, he will have no more scruples and can use the Black Lotus Empire to plunder resources at will.

"This raid on Dongfu City will also earn me a large sum of Chaos Spirit Liquid. Although some Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals are weak, if I squeeze them a bit more, I can still extract a lot of wealth," the Black Lotus God Emperor thought calmly.

Even if they are poor, it doesn't matter; the ancestral gods and immortals are a treasure in themselves.

And at this time—

"Ok?"

The Black Lotus God Emperor narrowed his eyes as he suddenly received a message from the Flying Owl Immortal.

"What? Strength comparable to a World Realm Perfection Ancestral Immortal?" The Black Lotus God Emperor was stunned.

His knowledge far surpassed that of the Flying Owl Immortal. He understood that it was possible for Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals to rival World Realm experts, having received heaven-defying inheritances, cultivated powerful divine abilities or secret techniques, or even relied on heaven-defying treasures.

If several conditions are met, some ancestral gods can even be stronger than ordinary world-realms.

Is his strength comparable to that of a World Realm Perfection cultivator?

Treasures, supernatural powers, and secret techniques are secondary.

What matters is one's state of mind.

That ancestral immortal's realm must be ridiculously high, even higher than that of most world gods and chaos immortals.

"Such an Ancestral Immortal would have no difficulty in forging his own path in the future, yet he has appeared in Dongfu City?" The Black Lotus God Emperor couldn't believe it.

He continued to check the messages sent by Flying Owl Immortal.

Did it shatter the Lesser Thousand Ancestral God Formation and kill the Mind God General?

The Black Lotus God Emperor remained completely unmoved.

Although Xin Shenjiang was one of the nine divine generals under him, in the eyes of the Black Lotus God Emperor, Xin Shenjiang had no hope of becoming a world god and was considered one of the worst among the nine divine generals.

Even if such a thing existed, the Black Lotus God Emperor might still have to deal with such a heaven-defying ancestral immortal for the sake of his mind.

But soon, the Black Lotus God Emperor's thoughts began to waver.

"This Ancestral Immortal was a native just over a thousand years ago?" The Black Lotus God Emperor frowned. This news was told to him by the Mind God and then to the Flying Owl Immortal.

But the Black Lotus God Emperor understood that this news was extremely likely true.

Because both the Mind General and the Flying Owl Immortal are bound by a life-bound oath, it's impossible for them to lie to him.

"Initially, several Ancestral Gods also attacked the Heart God General, using various treasures worth thousands of units?" The Black Lotus God Emperor felt this was outrageous.

A magical robe that allows the ancestral god to control the fire and water of chaos might be worth hundreds of units, and there are more than one such treasure.

"Could it be that I guessed wrong? That Ancestral Immortal is not necessarily of a high realm, but also relies on some kind of treasure?" The Black Lotus God Emperor's eyes flashed.

Heart-beating!

He was truly smitten.

What kind of opportunity did the ancestral gods and immortals, who were just a group of indigenous people more than a thousand years ago, obtain to undergo such earth-shattering changes?
"My Eternal Divine Weapon is only worth ten thousand cubic meters of Chaos Spirit Liquid. The treasures on these Ancestral Gods might be close to an Eternal Divine Weapon," the Black Lotus God Emperor thought to himself.

As a peak world god who has surpassed the world realm perfection, he relies on the Eternal Divine Weapon.

Without an eternal divine weapon, he would only reach the pinnacle of the World Realm.

With the Eternal Divine Weapon, he truly became the terrifying "Black Lotus Taoist".

"This could be my chance."

The Black Lotus God Emperor quickly made a decision.

The incredible opportunity and the treasures that were right before his eyes all tempted him.

As for the opponent?

A Grand Immortal comparable to the Perfected World Realm sounds terrifying, and his future is indeed limitless. Unfortunately, this Grand Immortal is not yet his match.

Unless someone cultivates the technique of creating clones and then merges those clones into one, even if the opponent breaks through immediately, their strength will not increase significantly.

Because his moves will not change in power after the breakthrough, some ancestral gods and immortals can rival world gods in strength in advance by using secret techniques and divine abilities. After the breakthrough, there is no time to cultivate and learn high-level secret techniques and divine abilities, so there will be no qualitative change. At most, he will last a little longer than before.

According to Flying Owl Immortal, this Ancestral Immortal possessed the aura of an ordinary first-class Ancestral Immortal, clearly not a cultivator who had practiced the clone technique and then merged his clones into one.

"My path of cultivation has long been severed. It's not that I didn't want to try, but I simply couldn't see any hope. But now, hope is right in front of me," the Black Lotus God Emperor thought to himself.

He understood that this move was risky, because he did not fully understand the background of these ancestral gods and immortals, but for the sake of becoming a Dao Lord, the Black Lotus God Emperor was willing to take another chance.

Swish!
The Black Lotus God Emperor vanished from the Black Lotus Imperial Capital in an instant.

. . . .

the other side--

Inside Dongfu City.

Swish!
In an instant, Fengmo arrived in front of Zhou Yu's clone, and he also waved his hand to release Hou Yi and the others.

"Old Man Yuan is completely dead."

Everyone stood there, feeling quite moved.

"You Cang, what do we do now?" Fuxi asked.

The power that Zhou Yu's Cang clone had just displayed was indeed terrifying. Even if they couldn't be sure exactly how powerful Zhou Yu's attack was, they knew that it far surpassed that of ordinary world gods.

"Let's leave Dongfu City first," Zhou Yu said.

"Where is Fellow Daoist Qianyu?" Huanmu Master asked.

"He's inside the treasure cave on my body," Zhou Yu said with a smile, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

call!
Led by Zhou Yu, the group sped towards the outskirts of Dongfu City, but at this moment—

Wow! Wow! Wow!
Strands of white silk reappeared from the void and coiled around Zhou Yu and the others.

The threads that appeared this time were much stronger than those that had bound the Wind Demon last time. Back then, Flying Owl Immortal had to take care of other things as well, but this time he was going all out.

After learning of this, the Black Lotus God Emperor ordered him to do his utmost to restrain everyone in the Three Realms for a period of time.

"Ok?"

Zhou Yu unleashed a sword strike, instantly creating countless sword shadows in the surrounding space-time, severing all the threads.

"This is the great formation of Dongfu City."

Zhou Yu understood that Dongfu City had now fallen into the hands of the Black Lotus Empire, meaning that it was the Black Lotus Empire that was manipulating the formation to stop him.

"This formation is not difficult to break."

Zhou Yu's mastery of array formations was equally astounding. Unlike ordinary cultivators who merely used array formations as a means, he had truly comprehended the Dao of array formations to an extremely high level.

At this moment, Zhou Yu surveyed the surroundings and quickly determined that the formation of Dongfu City should be at the perfect level of the World Realm.

Moreover, the person controlling this formation was clearly not skilled enough to unleash its full power.

"Even if I don't break the formation, this formation can't stop me." Zhou Yu understood this as well.

His spacetime technique, "Ephemeral Shadow," has reached the perfect level of the World Realm in terms of power and mystery. This formation is indeed no match for his spacetime technique.

However, after a moment's thought, Zhou Yu still led Feng Mo, Hou Yi, and the others down.

"Oh? You didn't choose to force your way in?"

At this moment, Flying Owl Immortal was also watching Zhou Yu and the others' every move from the core of the formation.

To be honest, Zhou Yu, who was at the peak of the World Realm, put a lot of pressure on him. Although the array he controlled was also very strong, he was unable to fully unleash its power.

But his mission was to hold off Zhou Yu and the others for a while, so he had to take action.

In Flying Owl Immortal's opinion, Zhou Yu's decision not to force his way in was the best-case scenario.

And on the other side-

The people of the Three Realms returned to the small courtyard they had rented.

"It seems the Black Lotus Empire doesn't want us to leave easily." Feng Mo and the others frowned.

"It should be the Black Lotus God Emperor; the Black Lotus God Emperor will make a move."

Zhou Yu calmly said that given the strength he had demonstrated, the fact that the Black Lotus Empire still dared to obstruct him meant there was only one possibility: the Black Lotus God Emperor wanted to take action.

"It's actually the Black Lotus God Emperor?"

The others felt a tightness in their chests. There was no way around it; a person's reputation precedes them, and the Black Lotus God Emperor's fame in this area was indeed too great at the moment.

Moreover, the Black Lotus God Emperor is indeed powerful, being a level above the World Realm Peak, which is a level stronger than the World Realm Perfection.

Zhou Yu was relatively calm; if he wanted to leave, the Black Lotus God Emperor couldn't stop him at all.

His time-space travel technique has reached the perfect level of the World Realm, making his escape ability incredibly powerful; even a newly-broken Dao Lord might not be able to catch him.

Of course, Zhou Yu did not choose to run away at this time, but stayed.

Zhou Yu understood that the Black Lotus God Emperor must have taken a liking to their treasures and opportunities. In that case, Zhou Yu would naturally make them pay the price.

"I have broken through to the World Realm, and the power of the Azure Porcelain has transformed. I am no longer afraid of his Eternal Divine Weapon!" This thought flashed through Zhou Yu's mind.

soon--

A sudden rumble echoed throughout Dongfu City.

Immediately afterwards, endless chaotic power surged in a certain direction.

"Someone has made a breakthrough."

"He will become the god of the world."

"."

The cultivators in Dongfu City were overjoyed; someone had broken through at this time, and perhaps they could resist the Black Lotus Empire.

Meanwhile, Flying Owl Immortal, who controlled the great formation of Dongfu City, felt a tightness in his heart.

"Breakthrough?"

Flying Owl Immortal quickly investigated.

"Hmm? It wasn't that heaven-defying ancestral immortal who broke through?" Flying Owl Immortal was relieved.

Although the Black Lotus God Emperor told him that even if this Ancestral Immortal broke through, his strength would not change qualitatively in a short period of time, it would naturally be best if the other party did not break through.

On the other side, Hou Yi, Fu Xi, and others were looking ahead with great surprise.

That was a blue pagoda that Zhou Yu's Cang clone had just taken out with a wave of his hand. Inside the pagoda, Zhou Yu's twelve clones were all sitting cross-legged.

At this moment, an incredibly surging chaotic power was rushing wildly towards Zhou Yu's numerous avatars and clones.

"Fellow Daoist Qianyu has actually broken through to the World Realm ahead of everyone else," Fengmo exclaimed.

“With Qianyu’s breakthrough this time, there’s no need to worry about the Black Lotus God Emperor,” Zhou Yu’s Youcang clone said from the side.

There are still powerful enemies outside, and Zhou Yu cannot allow both clones to break through at the same time. Although they can break through during battle, it is easy for accidents to happen.

Therefore, Zhou Yu chose to let his main body break through at this time, while Cang's clone guarded the place, just in case.

"You Cang, are you truly confident?" Fuxi asked at this moment.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine," Zhou Yu said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, everyone felt a little relieved.

At this moment, "You Cang" was clearly far stronger than them, and there must be a reason for his judgment.

At the same time, Zhou Yu himself was also immersed in his various clones.

This breakthrough was achieved simultaneously through both Qi cultivation and body refinement.

To cultivate Qi and become a Chaos Immortal, one must create a chaotic space within the Golden Core. Once this stage is reached, the level of the Golden Core one possessed before the breakthrough has little impact, unless one cultivates a clone technique, which would affect the purity of the magical power at the Chaos Immortal level.

"Array Dao Power, Sixth Level".

Zhou Yu controlled that power within his body.

Rumble!
Under the influence of a mysterious force, a chaotic space was rapidly opened up within Zhou Yu's golden core.

The chaotic space was not large at first, but a tangible "seed of the Dao" appeared. It was the "seed of the Dao of Array".

Any cultivator who masters the power of the fifth level of origin can condense a Dao seed. When enough is accumulated, the Dao seed grows into a Dao tree, and that is a Chaos Immortal.

At this moment, Zhou Yu's accumulation was certainly sufficient, and the seed of the array path began to grow amidst the tremors.

It grows extremely fast, exceeding a thousand feet in the blink of an eye.

Three thousand zhang, four thousand zhang, five thousand zhang
The Dao Tree continued to grow until it reached a height of 31,000 zhang (approximately 13,300 meters) before it stopped.

"Thirty-one thousand zhang?" Zhou Yu nodded.

This shows how substantial his accumulated knowledge and experience were.

In the normal world realm, after a long period of cultivation, the Dao Tree grows to 36,000 zhang (approximately 18,600 meters), which is considered the perfect world realm.

Zhou Yu had just broken through and reached 31,000 feet, which shows that although he had just broken through, his pure realm was not far from the perfection of the World Realm.

Of course, as I said before, enlightenment and physical strength are not the same thing.

In terms of strength, Zhou Yu can easily create techniques and formations at the Perfect World Realm level. Even if they only compete in techniques and not strength, ordinary Perfect World Realm cultivators might not be his match.

After completing his breakthrough in Qi Refining, Zhou Yu did not rush to achieve a complete breakthrough in Body Refining.

Instead, it took the opportunity to absorb the infinite chaotic power to replenish the Blue and White Porcelain Space.

A large amount of divine power and magical power were continuously transformed into an even more vast blue-and-white porcelain power.

"The power of blue and white porcelain is good, but it can't leave the body," Zhou Yu sighed inwardly.

This is why, even though he has a Cang clone, which is his second primordial spirit that left the Three Realms, he always uses close-combat methods when he makes a move.

It wasn't that Zhou Yu preferred close combat, but rather that this was the only way.

Of course, the Azure Flower Mist is indeed powerful. Once the Azure Flower Mist possesses a body, the second primordial spirit of the Azure Cang clone is no different from the body-refining style, except that it does not have an immortal body. In battle, it only needs to be careful not to take certain attacks head-on.

As Zhou Yu frantically absorbed massive amounts of chaotic power to break through, Flying Owl Immortal gradually sensed that something was amiss.

"The world god absorbed far too much chaotic power during this breakthrough, definitely more than when I broke through." Flying Owl Immortal frowned slightly.

Although he hadn't paid special attention, he was quite certain that the person breaking through at this moment was absorbing an enormous amount of chaotic power.

Generally speaking, absorbing a little more power is nothing, but absorbing too much power proves that this world has definitely cultivated some special supernatural ability.

However, despite his lingering worries, Flying Owl Immortal didn't do much; his task was simply to hold these people off.

Zhou Yu himself broke through using a time-accelerating treasure, so his breakthrough speed was extremely fast. Before long, the surging energy gradually calmed down.

Meanwhile, outside Dongfu City, a figure suddenly tore through space and arrived.

. . .

"Your Majesty Black Lotus, among those Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals, some have broken through to the World Realm."

"The good news is that it wasn't that heaven-defying ancestral immortal who broke through."

"However, this person is probably not simple either, as he has absorbed a great deal of chaotic power."

"."

Within the Black Lotus God Emperor's heart, the voice of the Flying Owl Immortal echoed continuously.

The Black Lotus God Emperor listened calmly as he arrived in Dongfu City, near that inconspicuous courtyard.

However, before the Black Lotus God Emperor could get close, he saw a figure standing there with his hands behind his back.

The figure's aura was very ordinary, not even reaching the Perfect World Realm level, so this was naturally Zhou Yu himself who had just broken through.

"So, the World God who just broke through was you?" The Black Lotus God Emperor looked at Zhou Yu's true form with a cold expression and said:

"You dare to stop me? What a waste of your billions of years of cultivation!"

"I have just broken through and need an opponent to verify the Dao I have comprehended. I only hope that you, Black Lotus God Emperor, will not disappoint me," Zhou Yu said calmly.

"You think you can do this? Let that Ancestral Immortal come out." The Black Lotus God Emperor sneered. With a wave of his hand, his magical power surged, and a huge black lotus flower condensed in the void.

The black lotus contains a terrifying killing intent.

This move is more than enough to deal with ordinary world gods.

However, Zhou Yu considered this quite ordinary. He reached out and used his magic power to draw upon the chaotic power, instantly forming a magic array.

The formation contracted slightly, sealing the black lotus within.

"This move is far too weak," Zhou Yu shook his head.

"Hmm? You actually have some skill?" The Black Lotus God Emperor's gaze turned cold.

"Then let's try my Black Lotus Forbidden Technique."

At this moment, the Black Lotus God Emperor unleashed his full power.

The Body Refinement School possesses supernatural powers.

Practicing the flow of energy is magic.

This Black Lotus Forbidden Technique is a kind of terrifying spell. When the Black Lotus God Emperor does not use the Eternal Divine Weapon, his most powerful technique is not the body-refining method, but the "Black Lotus Forbidden Technique" for cultivating qi.

"A Sea of ​​Lotus Flowers!"

Rumble!
An endless surge of energy caused countless black lotuses to bloom within Dongfu City.

"interesting."

Zhou Yu nodded, and with a wave of his hand, a vast amount of magical power surged forth.

Suddenly, a killing array appeared out of thin air. Within the array, countless divine swords condensed and surged down, easily piercing through the black lotuses.

"His formation..."

The Black Lotus God Emperor's expression changed slightly.

Without relying on any treasures, he could generate an array with a single thought, and its power was even stronger than his "Lotus Sea" move.

Immediately, the Black Lotus God Emperor understood that the World Realm expert before him was indeed powerful.

He had two more powerful moves in his Black Lotus Secret Technique that he hadn't yet used, but the Black Lotus God Emperor knew that even if he did use them, it would be impossible to quickly defeat this World Realm expert.

"Humph."

The Black Lotus God Emperor snorted coldly. With a thought, a curved blade that looked like an ice sculpture appeared in his hand.

A faint blue light occasionally flashed from the scimitar, radiating an incredibly astonishing aura.

"Black Lotus has finally brought out his Eternal Divine Weapon." Flying Owl Immortal, who was watching the battle, sighed inwardly upon seeing this scene.

A peak World God is far stronger than a perfect World Realm cultivator; this World God is doomed.

"Ok?"

Upon seeing this, Zhou Yu also became serious.

Swish!
The Black Lotus God Emperor took a step and immediately attacked.

Zhou Yu retreated rapidly, and at the same time, with a thought, arrays were set up out of thin air.

Killing formation, trapping formation, illusion formation.
One array after another was cleaved open by the Black Lotus God Emperor with a single strike, except for some illusion arrays that incorporated Zhou Yu's mental power and techniques, which could pose a slight obstacle to him.

"You are dead."

The Black Lotus God Emperor's expression was icy.

A newly emerged world god is so troublesome that he naturally cannot let him live.

“Eternal divine weapons are not invincible, and there are limits to how much they can enhance your strength.”

With a thought, Zhou Yu caused several figures to appear around him.

"A clone?" The Black Lotus God Emperor was taken aback.

At this moment, Zhou Yu's twelve clones had all joined together.

Zhou Yu previously used various array formations, similar to the methods of inheriting the "Ten Thousand Array Dao". This method greatly enhances the power of the array formations by using the ultimate array formation techniques. Therefore, Zhou Yu can set up arrays with a single thought without relying on external objects or treasures, and the power of these arrays is quite exaggerated.

Now, Zhou Yu's clones are uniting, which is the path he took from the beginning, a path of arrays that draws upon boundless power.

Using the divine power of the twelve world gods as the foundation, it immediately attracted and condensed a massive amount of chaotic power.

Boom!

A colossal figure of immense divine power appeared there.

"To actually unleash such a vast power." The Black Lotus God Emperor frowned.

"Take the move."

Zhou Yu gave a low shout, and a divine sword appeared in the hand of the divine giant formed from his twelve clones.

The divine sword, carrying the immense power of the divine giant, slashed down, but the Black Lotus God Emperor did not back down.

"You think you can contend with my Eternal Divine Weapon with just a single formation?" The Black Lotus God Emperor's scimitar cleaved through the chaos, its light stretching for billions of miles.

Boom!

The two immense forces collided, and the Black Lotus God Emperor's expression changed.

Whoosh!
The Black Lotus God Emperor was suddenly sent flying backward, while the Divine Power Giant only took a slight step back.

"I told you long ago, your Eternal Divine Weapon is not invincible," Zhou Yu said calmly.

"Just because you have brute force doesn't mean you're guaranteed to win."

The Black Lotus God Emperor's expression became slightly more serious. He moved and once again took up the Eternal Divine Weapon to attack.

This time, the Black Lotus God Emperor did not choose to confront Zhou Yu head-on. The blessing of the Eternal Divine Weapon was all-encompassing, enhancing his strength, speed, and power.

The Black Lotus God Emperor unleashed a set of Yin-Yang sword techniques, while Zhou Yu, the Divine Giant, wielded two divine swords.

The two divine swords worked together in a way that possessed a unique and mysterious quality.

"Array?"

The Black Lotus God Emperor felt as if the two swords were a single entity, forming a large array that was constantly being crushed by the immense power of the divine giant.

"Do you really think my close-combat skills are a weakness?" Zhou Yu sneered inwardly.

Although he only used array techniques, he had already made up for it in close combat.

After all, he had received too many inheritances before, more than three thousand in total, including close-combat array techniques. Zhou Yu borrowed them slightly and also created his own close-combat techniques.

clang!clang!clang!
The two sides continued to fight, and after about a hundred moves, the giant of divine power pierced through the body of the Black Lotus God Emperor with a single sword strike.

call!call!
The Black Lotus God Emperor retreated rapidly, his face already turning somewhat pale.

Although those who cultivate body techniques are immortal, both of them had already unleashed the power of the peak of the World Realm. If he were to be defeated in one move, his divine power would be depleted.

"go!"

The Black Lotus God Emperor dared not linger any longer. He immediately used some kind of forbidden technique and fled rapidly into the distance.

As Zhou Yu watched the fleeing Black Lotus God Emperor, he felt quite emotional.

Without relying on special techniques or treasures, he now possesses such strength.

"However, now that you're here, do you still want to leave?" Zhou Yu's gaze suddenly turned cold, and the next moment, the power of the Azure Flower surged out from all twelve of his main bodies.

In an instant, the divine power of each of Zhou Yu's clones increased a thousandfold.

This power far exceeds the external chaotic power it attracts, and the greater the power, the more difficult it is to gather it together using an array.

So in an instant, the giant of divine power was already unstable.

Fortunately, the array was being cast by Zhou Yu's clones, each with extremely profound array skills, and they were still able to stabilize their divine bodies.

"He only has a few moves left."

"But that's enough."

With a single step, Zhou Yu unleashed a speed far exceeding that of the Black Lotus God Emperor, followed by a punch containing incomparably terrifying power.

Boom!

That area of ​​void completely collapsed, and the Black Lotus God Emperor, who was fleeing, was instantly caught up by that power. Even though he tried his best to resist with the power of the Eternal Divine Weapon, he could not stop it at all.

In fact, with the help of the power of the blue and white porcelain, Zhou Yu could easily defeat the Black Lotus God Emperor with just his main body and clone, let alone now with the combined power of twelve clones.
"It's over."

The Black Lotus God Emperor also realized this, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If he had been content to be his own local tyrant, he could have lived for a long time.

But now, because of a moment of greed, he is going to die.

laugh!
In an instant, the Black Lotus God Emperor's last wisp of divine power was also obliterated into nothingness by that power.

P.S.: That's all for today.
