Kamimine

Chapter 170 War Emperor
"If it does me a good deed, I will repay it with all my might. A true man stands in the world and distinguishes between gratitude and resentment."

Liu Chengfeng laughed loudly, showing no fear whatsoever.

Looking at the young man, Yu Huanrui saw his heroic spirit, his upright character, and his magnanimity, which captivated her.

Liu Chengfeng acted immediately, unleashing the power of the four divine treasures, causing the sea of ​​blood to churn and releasing its vital energy.

With a loud shout, the World Tree took root in the earth and spread in all directions.

"Come, all of you. What is past cannot be retained. Let me guide you to the afterlife, so that you may enjoy ultimate bliss."

Liu Chengfeng spoke the truth, and his Taiyin Body blossomed, unleashing a torrent of Yin energy that engulfed all the karmic fire, vengeful spirits, and corpses.

The grieving and resentful spirits, resonating with the Yin energy, sensed Liu Chengfeng's intentions and surged towards him.

The vengeful spirits rejoiced, surging like a raging tide, rushing into the sea of ​​blood and merging with the blood energy.

The vengeful spirits here are far more powerful than the resentment outside. They need even greater blood energy to cleanse resentment, unwillingness, and despair.

In a short period of time, Liu Chengfeng's blood and energy were depleted, and he could hardly hold on.

"Give it to me—"

Liu Chengfeng shouted loudly, still insisting, taking the blood medicine to strengthen his blood energy once again, making his divine blood roar.

The vengeful spirits cheered and surged into the sea of ​​blood, resolutely accepting Liu Chengfeng's salvation.

"Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, let go of the past life, and you will be in bliss from now on."

Liu Chengfeng shouted incessantly, his blood and energy surging like a burst dam, resulting in a tremendous loss.

The rate at which blood-activating drugs are taken cannot keep up with the loss of blood and qi.

If the blood-nourishing medicine can't keep up, take Jieyin San to ignite the true fire of life, boost vitality, nourish the blood and qi, and continue the cycle once again.

The vengeful spirit's energy was too strong; I still couldn't keep up with the speed at which I took the drugs.

Then, after consuming the Great Dao Pill, the nine Creation God Cores shone brightly, granting the primordial spirit even greater power.

It stimulates the primordial spirit, frantically activates life, and makes the blood and energy vigorous.

In the end, even Shanwan took to it. He used Shanwan to refine Yuan Ni, but Liu Chengfeng used it to refine blood and qi, forcibly reversing the process.

Such extraordinary abilities could only be achieved by a fifth-level alchemist like him.

Forced reversal caused him excruciating pain, his face contorted in agony. Several times his blood and energy were depleted, only to be forcibly replenished again, his body alternating between desiccation and resurgence.

"Stop it, there's no need to risk your life."

Yu Huanrui felt sorry for him and tried to dissuade him.

"It's time to hit the road."

Liu Chengfeng would not give up halfway; he persisted to the end and purified all the resentment.

Finally, with a loud shout, blood, life force, and the power of the Great Dao were all poured into the Furnace of Life.

From the ashes of nothingness, a blazing, sacred flame erupts, purifying and liberating the departed souls.

Without hesitation, all the departed souls plunged into the sacred flames to be refined and transcended.

The sacred flames rolled on and on, and countless souls were sent to receive salvation, destined for bliss.

Liu Chengfeng continued taking drugs throughout the journey, forcibly enduring the depletion of his blood and energy to complete the ritual.

In the end, all the souls were refined, and Liu Chengfeng, having exhausted his life force, could no longer hold on and collapsed.

Yu Huanrui quickly hugged him tightly, embracing his head and burying her face in his chest.

"This is not something you should be risking your life for."

Yu Huanrui whispered, her voice low and melodious, filled with sorrow and emotion, and an unbearable heartache.

"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."

Liu Chengfeng was carefree and unrestrained. Nestled in the warm, soft embrace, he was so comfortable that he didn't want to get up.

"Something's wrong."

Liu Chengfeng looked up at the sky, sat up, and was surprised.

Above the sky, the souls of the deceased who had been saved did not disperse; they gathered in the sky, and light shone down upon them.

"This is……"

Yu Huanrui was also taken aback.

All the souls of the dead gathered together, forming a vortex, from which strange light appeared.

"They are meant to convey a message."

Yu Huanrui's heart skipped a beat, realizing what was going on.

After all, these souls were all powerful beings in life, and after their resentment was purified and they were exorcised, they were able to regain their clarity.

The phenomenon suddenly changed; flames burst forth, as if a great realm had opened, with karmic fire raging.

Amidst the karmic flames, a jet of black fire crashed down, the black flames brimming with endless malevolence and carrying the might of the supreme god.

"The Supreme God—"

Liu Chengfeng's expression changed drastically.

Amidst the strange phenomenon, black flames slashed into the ancient Huang Kingdom of the Nine Heavens, cutting through the imperial city as easily as slicing tofu.

Black flames entered the ground, unleashing malevolent power that, carrying karmic fire and light, spread like a tide, engulfing the ancient kingdom.

Engulfed instantly by the black flames of karmic fire, countless lives in the ancient kingdom, even those who had ascended to godhood, were devoured and burned before they could escape.

Screams and wails echoed through the sky as countless lives were burned to ashes.

All life dies in despair and resentment, without even knowing why they are being destroyed.

As the black flames devoured the ancient kingdom and countless lives wailed in agony, a figure emerged above the Great Realm of Karmic Fire—it was he who had struck down the black flames.

This man possessed unparalleled imperial power, looking down upon all races.

"War Emperor's Ashes—"

Upon seeing this person, even though Yu Huanrui was somewhat prepared, she was still struck dumb, her face paled, and she cried out.

"War Emperor Jinyu, the chief god of the Tiankui Divine Kingdom."

Liu Chengfeng's expression changed drastically; he had heard of this name before.

The War Emperor Jinyu, who was in the strange phenomenon, seemed to sense something. Suddenly, the Vermilion Bird Emperor Yan Yingtian unleashed a spear beam that swept across the heavens and earth.

With a single strike, the world lost its color, all laws groaned in agony, the heavens and earth collapsed, and hundreds of nations were destroyed.

"Fuck-"

Liu Chengfeng was greatly alarmed. If the remaining strange phenomenon already possessed such powerful killing force, what would happen if the real body arrived?

Yu Huanrui shouted loudly, and her sword rose like a central starburst, shooting into the sky and striking the spear's edge.

With a deafening roar, as if the heavens and earth were shattered, Yu Huanrui blocked the spear's edge and shattered the strange phenomenon.

Only then did all the departed souls willingly dissipate.

At this moment, in the distant, sacred realm of the Heavenly Kui Divine Kingdom, a man suddenly sensed something.

"Who is it?"

The man opened his eyes, unleashing the power of a supreme god, with stars and galaxies swirling around him, and the heavens and earth rising and falling.

The man had bright golden eyes, black hair as dark as night, and a figure as imposing as a mountain.

Clad in crimson-gold flame armor, with the Vermilion Bird Emperor's Flame illuminating the sky, his imperial might was unparalleled, looking down upon all races.

"Please, priest."

The man had a bad feeling about him.

"Your Majesty, the high priest has gone out to find someone to forge the Undying Emperor Flame Spear."

Your subordinate replied respectfully.

"Step back—"

The man suddenly stood up, and imperial flames soared into the sky.

Deep underground.

Yu Huanrui stood motionless, utterly distraught.

"It was the War Emperor Jinyu who destroyed the ancient kingdom."

Liu Chengfeng was quite certain, but he didn't understand why the War Emperor Jinyu wanted to destroy the ancient kingdom. The Nine Heavens Ancient Radiance Kingdom belonged to the Six Central Divine Dynasty, and the Heavenly Kui Divine Kingdom was one of the three great divine kingdoms; they were originally one family.

A supreme god destroying an ancient kingdom—this is a momentous event, why hide it?

Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but gasp; there was a shocking conspiracy behind this.

"I will kill him to avenge them!"

Yu Huanrui gritted her teeth, her beautiful eyes shining with a resolute light.

"Can my sister defeat her?"

Liu Chengfeng was worried, as he didn't know how much stronger the War Emperor Jinyu was.

"No, that's not good—"

Yu Huanrui suppressed the hatred in her heart, came to her senses, and immediately felt that something was wrong.

She instantly embraced Liu Chengfeng and, with lightning speed, leaped away.

Before Liu Chengfeng could react, Yu Huanrui carried him out of the underground and stepped out of the Nine Heavens Abyss of Vengeful Souls.

Yu Huanrui was too fast; in the blink of an eye, she left Huangxu behind.

Suddenly, terrifying divine power erupted, tearing open the sky and illuminating the myriad realms and ten kingdoms with dazzling light, as if igniting the starry sky.

A spear beam, spanning 100,000 miles, descended from the sky, capable of piercing through vast oceans and shattering millions of miles of land.

With a deafening roar, the destructive power spread in all directions from the Nine Heavens Abyss of Vengeful Souls.

The Nine Heavens Abyss of Resentful Souls was shattered and completely submerged, and the ruins spanning millions of miles were torn apart.

"Damn it, kill him to silence him."

Seeing this, Liu Chengfeng, who was being carried away, was horrified and cursed loudly.

It must be that War Emperor Jinyu discovered something amiss and, without hesitation, destroyed everything to silence witnesses.

The supreme god was truly terrifying; killing him was as easy as crushing a leech.

If Yu Huanrui hadn't reacted quickly, they would have already lost their lives underground.

Yu Huanrui traversed heaven and earth, leading Liu Chengfeng out of the Huangxu area, and disappeared as quickly as possible to prevent the War Emperor from discovering them.

Not long after Yu Huanrui and the others escaped, a massive army of 100,000 Divine Kingdom Iron Cavalry surged in like a tidal wave, moving at an extremely fast speed.

Ten thousand iron cavalrymen trampled mountains and seas, their cold light shining brightly against the azure sky.

The divine cavalry emerged, their thunderous roar shaking the surrounding lands, and they surrounded the ruins of Huangxu, causing many cultivators around to be terrified, wondering what was happening.

"The vengeful spirits of karmic fire have escaped. The War Emperor has decreed that no one may enter; otherwise, they will be killed without mercy."

One hundred thousand iron cavalry from the divine kingdom descended, besieging Huangxu and forbidding anyone from approaching.

Above the 100,000 iron cavalry, the imperial palace appeared, with golden-armored guards standing in front of it, creating a majestic and imposing scene.

A young man sat high in the imperial palace, looking down at the ruins.

The young man had sword-like eyebrows that reached his temples, phoenix eyes that concealed their sharpness, and wore a purple-gold robe embroidered with golden dragons, exuding an aura of power and prestige.

"Zhu Daoyu, the Prince of Tiankui—"

A cultivator witnessed this scene from afar and was horrified; no one dared to approach Huangxu again.

Zhu Daoyu, the son of Emperor Tiankui and Emperor Zhan, was deified and became a third-rank divine servant.

"Search--"

At a single command from Emperor Tiankui, Zhu Daoyu, a hundred thousand iron cavalrymen ventured deep into the Nine Heavens Abyss of Resentful Souls to see if any survivors were found.

Yu Huanrui led Liu Chengfeng into a cave and hid there.

This cave dwelling resembles a secluded ravine, with waterside pavilions and winding corridors, secluded paths, carved railings and jade-like structures, and towers hidden among the buildings.

"This was once a hidden paradise of our dynasty, unknown to anyone, and it is safe for now."

After bringing Liu Chengfeng back, Yu Huanrui gently told him.

This place was where she occasionally found peace and quiet to daydream; no one else had ever come here except for her.

"Finally escaped a disaster. Damn it, that bastard Zhan Di wanted to kill me to cover it up."

Liu Chengfeng plopped down, filled with hatred. He had almost died at the hands of the War Emperor. That bastard, he would kill him one day.

Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but frown; killing a main god was no easy task.

Yu Huanrui sat there in a daze, not yet fully recovered.

"Sister, there's no rush to take revenge."

Liu Chengfeng pried open her tightly clenched fist, spread her five fingers, and then clasped them together.

"No, time waits for no one, I must kill him."

Yu Huanrui's beautiful eyes shone with a divine light, resolute and determined.

"This is suicide."

Liu Chengfeng felt a chill run down his spine; he had a bad feeling.

"Even if it means death, he must pay the price."

Yu Huanrui's attitude was very firm; she didn't have much time left and had to make a decision.

"Are there any other means?"

Liu Chengfeng didn't want her to go and die.

"No, only life."

She knew her own situation; the longer it dragged on, the worse it would be for her.

"Go away, escape from here, the farther the better."

Yu Huanrui took a deep breath, came to her senses, and looked at Liu Chengfeng intently.

"Escape? Where to escape to?"

"This is the territory of the Thousand Prefectures of the Sacred Plains. If you head south, you will have a chance to leave the Six Central Divine Dynasty."

"As long as you leave the Central Divine Dynasty, you will have a chance to escape the War Emperor's search."

Yu Huanrui devised an escape route for Liu Chengfeng. They escaped from Huangxu and crossed the ancient kingdoms of Lihuo and Yanxi.

Their small grotto was located in the Thousand Mansions of Sacrifice Plains, right next to the Sword Casting Sacrifice Plains.

They couldn't go west, as that would lead them into the Heavenly Kingdom of Kui, so she advised Liu Chengfeng to flee south.

“I will not leave the Six Central Divine Dynasty. The black energy I am chasing is nearby. Escape is impossible.”

Liu Chengfeng refused to escape from the Six Central Divine Dynasty. The starlight at his fingertips indicated that another dark aura was in this area.

He won't leave until he finishes his own business.

"Where there is life, there is hope."

Yu Huanrui wanted to persuade Liu Chengfeng that staying in the Six Vehicles Central Divine Dynasty was extremely dangerous, and he would surely die if the War Emperor discovered him.

“If my sister isn’t afraid, what do I, a man, have to fear about dying?”

Liu Chengfeng burst into laughter and shook his head in refusal.

"If you don't mind that I'm a burden, I'm willing to fight alongside you and go fight the War Emperor."

Liu Chengfeng was filled with heroic spirit and did not back down. If Zhan Di Jinyu wanted to kill him to silence him, he would take revenge sooner or later!
“How could I despise you? This is the blood feud of my Nine Heavens Ancient Glory Kingdom, and it is my duty to avenge it.”

Yu Huanrui shook her head gently, her attitude firm. It was her turn to settle her blood feud.

"What kind of cultivation technique does my sister practice?"

Since he couldn't fight alongside her, Liu Chengfeng decided to find another way to help her take revenge.

"Top grade Heavenly Scroll."

Yu Huanrui did not hide anything and told her frankly.

"Top grade Heavenly Scroll."

Liu Chengfeng was shocked. In the Qingmeng Realm, how many people possess a high-grade Heavenly Scroll?
"I fused with my sister to create the Heavenly Scroll Innate Form!"

Liu Chengfeng didn't ask any further questions and made a promise to her.
