Shrouding the Heavens: The Ruthless Heavenly Emperor

She once again used the secret technique of "One Thought Blossoms, One Ruler Over the World," combined with the Devouring Heaven Demon Art, to completely expose Duan De's weakness.

In that instant, she struck Duan De with her palm, and a strange energy forcibly invaded Duan De's essence.

Soon, the woman in white sensed a vast and powerful aura. There was something strange about that source; it was cold and lifeless, like a dead person.

She exerted all her strength to activate her Daoist techniques, trying to absorb all of Duan De's essence, but a terrifying aura directly blasted her away, sending her flying backward with blood spurting from her mouth.

However, she also absorbed a bit of the origin and Duan De's flesh and blood, blood, and the laws of the Great Dao.

Duan De's face turned pale, and he looked at the white-clad woman lying on the ground with a look of horror. He swallowed hard and said, "What kind of strange technique is this? How can it absorb my flesh and blood, my Great Dao Laws and Origin? It's too strange."

At this moment, he felt weak, as if he had kidney deficiency. He had dark circles under his eyes, and his chubby face looked thinner.

"She's run away, she's run away. This woman is not to be trifled with."

"Damn it, meeting her is the worst thing that ever happened to me. This is the first time I've ever seen such bizarre Taoist magic."

"If we keep fighting, we'll die at her hands sooner or later. I'm scared, let's run away."

Strange memories would occasionally appear in his mind, but those memories contained no such technique, nor even the ability to absorb the enemy's Great Dao Laws or origin concepts.

Duan De ran away without looking back, his face pale and covered in blood, with some parts missing flesh, looking like he had kidney deficiency.

Without looking back, he plunged into the starry sky, intending to find a good place to settle down.

He didn't know what era it was, nor did he know what place it was.

He was buried in various places, so he didn't know where he was.

After traveling through the starry sky for several days, on a broken path in the starry sky, they found a white-haired man standing shirtless on a pile of corpses, silently blowing the stench of blood.

Duan De was dumbfounded. He looked at the corpses scattered all over the ground, and even found the body of the Saint King. There was also a stone head that he had stepped on, radiating the pressure of a saint.

"The first wave."

When Xu Changqing approached the fiftieth level of the human race, the first wave of attacks he encountered included a powerful Holy Spirit, which took him a great deal of effort to kill.

Moreover, through soul searching, it was learned that the reason he was being hunted down and surrounded was because a peerless genius of the Holy Spirit Clan had appeared.

In order to ensure that the Holy Spirit is safely born and then attains enlightenment without engaging in any so-called struggles, he can directly attain enlightenment upon birth.

So those people voluntarily paved the way for the Holy Spirit.

It wasn't just Xu Changqing; many of the younger generation of experts had been assassinated to varying degrees.

Soon, Xu Changqing sensed the approaching aura of death, yet it also contained the aura of blood. That aura exuded death, but also contained life.

He turned his head and saw a fat man standing on a starry sky, staring at him with wide eyes.

Xu Changqing felt that the face looked somewhat familiar.

Chapter 46 Duan De, the Meat Shield (Two Chapters Combined)

"Hey, wait, what's going on here?" Duan De was a little confused. He had just escaped that female demon, and now he was facing someone who seemed even more perverted.

He knew the stone head lying on the meteorite; it was a Holy Spirit, and its eye even had a jade-like tear of emerald green gold.

Being able to fight a Holy Spirit to a standstill at the same level is already abnormal, but that man killed the Holy Spirit, his head was trampled under his feet, and there was even the corpse of a Saint King next to him.

In the starry sky, on a gray meteorite, Xu Changqing stood naked, holding a blood-dripping bone knife, with a stone head at his right foot flowing with blood.

He crouched down slightly, poked his finger into the glowing green eye, and then removed a piece of the green gold tear from the eyeball.

Xu Changqing naturally noticed Duan De, but didn't pay much attention to him.

Duan De's eyes were practically glowing with lust, and he was drooling, but he didn't dare to go forward.

They could only watch enviously, not daring to go over.

He soon noticed a faint blood-red halo emerging from the corpse of the Holy Spirit, which eventually transformed into a scarlet divine ring on the back of Xu Changqing's head.

That was the curse of the Holy Spirit.

“The Holy Spirit is born of heaven and earth, possesses great fortune, and cannot be killed. Once the Holy Spirit is killed, one will be rejected by heaven and earth, and even cursed. The curse cannot be concealed, as the gestation period of each Holy Spirit is extremely long. Therefore, after killing the Holy Spirit, those curses will follow him until he is killed by another Holy Spirit.”

Duan De thought this white-haired man was quite fierce, daring to kill even a Holy Spirit, and in the starry sky no less.

If Xu Changqing knew Duan De's thoughts, he would definitely laugh and say, "Can't the Holy Spirit be killed?"

For him, however many Holy Spirits came, he would kill them all.

They weren't afraid at all.

Xu Changqing tidied himself up, glanced at the fat Taoist priest, but didn't pay him much attention before leaving.

"Fellow Daoist, wait, wait, I have something I'd like to ask you." Duan De saw Xu Changqing about to leave and quickly ran forward, wanting to ask where they were.

He himself had no idea where he was.

Xu Changqing stopped and turned around, only to find that the fat man, separated by an endless distance, had arrived in front of him in just a few flashes. He was so fast that even Xu Changqing might not be able to catch up with him.

This is a bit outrageous. He's not even as fast as a fat guy?

"This humble Taoist is Duan De. May I ask, fellow Taoist, where exactly is this place?" Duan De had a gentle smile on his face, his complexion was ruddy, and his face was chubby, making him look no more than twenty years old.

He was wearing a Taoist robe, which was bulging out of his belly, and a wine gourd was at his waist.

Xu Changqing was slightly stunned, his eyes narrowed, and he looked Duan De over, confirming that this was one of the three scoundrels from his memory. It seemed that he had just woken up.

Recalling the information about Duan De in my mind, there was a sentence describing his fourth incarnation, which was that he appeared during the time of the Ruthless Great Emperor, but I was not quite sure.

But he has clearly stated that he was indeed the fourth incarnation more than 200,000 years ago.

"This is the Imperial Road, the Human Race's Imperial Pass, nearing the fiftieth pass," Xu Changqing said calmly, surveying the area.

Fan Duan De found Duan De looking rather disheveled; his ruddy complexion had turned pale, and he had some wounds on his body.

Moreover, the wounds on Duan De's body exuded a familiar aura.

"The Emperor's Path has opened again, no wonder." Duan De suddenly realized that it was because he had encountered two monstrous geniuses in the starry sky. It turned out that the Emperor's Path had opened and an emperor would appear in this life.

But without a doubt, it will be Duan De's throne again.

“Fellow Daoist, now that we are approaching the fiftieth level of the human race, shall we travel together?” Duan De said.

Being in the same team as this white-haired man means that if anything unexpected happens, he can shield me and I can make a quick getaway. That would be perfect.

Xu Changqing pondered for a moment, then glanced at Duan De's palm and found that there was no Reincarnation Seal, which must be because his cultivation level had not yet reached that level.

However, he also wanted to study the mysteries of the Reincarnation Seal, which might be helpful to his Reincarnation Blade Technique.

That woman may have already developed a secret technique to counter her swordsmanship. Even if she can't resist it, she won't be deeply affected by it and will no longer be influenced by the scene. She will be able to break free soon.

"can."

In the end, Xu Changqing still let Duan De go with him to the fiftieth level of the human race. According to his guess, the closer they got, the more dangerous it would be. Having a meat shield would be good.

On the other side, after recovering from her injuries, the woman in white also set off, her goal being to reach the fiftieth level of the human race.

Of course, she also absorbed Duan De's blood essence and the origin of the Great Dao, but she found it very strange.

Duan De's essence of flesh and blood possessed an ancient and incomparably ancient aura, as well as a unique origin, far surpassing those with special physiques.

Moreover, within those one or two pieces of flesh, there was an ancient array pattern.

After absorbing Duan De's flesh and blood and the origin of the Great Dao, her eyes shone with a strange light. If she could absorb Duan De's entire body, her cultivation and path might improve significantly.

Unfortunately, Duan De possessed incredible abilities; there was something within his very essence.

Just a wisp of aura was enough to severely injure me, who was already at the peak of the Saint realm. That aura was like that of an Emperor.

This shattered the white-clad woman's hopes, and she felt somewhat regretful.

Time flies, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye. Even though we are approaching the fiftieth level of the human race, there is still a long way to go, not to mention the numerous battles, large and small.

The starry sky was dazzling, and the colorful Milky Way transformed into a path that pierced through the darkness. On the other side of the path stood a magnificent city, exuding an ancient and vast aura.

This is a colossal city built in the starry sky, surrounded by countless star fields, with starlight twinkling everywhere. The Milky Way seems to have transformed into colorful lanterns, hanging on the massive city gate.

Meteorites fell, but each time they grazed the giant city, as if they were afraid of something.

The black walls bear the marks of swords and blades, and ancient sword and saber intents emanate from them. The starry sky flows, and dozens of suns take turns rotating.

The city was enormous; even a single brick was hundreds of meters tall and black, exuding a sense of oppression.

Even from a distance, you can feel a sense of solemnity and suffocation.

"We've finally arrived." Duan Dechang said.

He exhaled, looked at the city ahead, and smiled easily.

God knows how he got through that year.

This white-haired man seemed to have been abandoned by the heavens; wherever he went, misfortune followed, and he had enemies everywhere.

Even the red halo behind him was very conspicuous, and many saints chose to hunt him down.

Through soul searching, it was learned that this white-haired man came from the Burial Emperor Star, and was even an extremely cruel Heavenly Demon who had slaughtered countless living beings. He was infamous in the Imperial Road and despised by everyone.

Duan De himself did not know the white-haired man's name, because he rarely spoke. However, when he searched the souls of those who surrounded and killed him, he found that the white-haired man was called the Ruthless Heavenly Demon.

It means that he was inhuman, bloodthirsty, and often killed for pleasure. In a great star field called Eternal Star Field, two emperors once lived, making it a super era.

Wuqing obtained Daoyan Emperor's things there, but used them to sink the Eternal Starfield, kill hundreds of millions of living beings, annihilate major families, and almost wipe out the younger generation.

In the starry sky, battles large and small were corrupted by various people, and all sorts of evil techniques, such as the Soul-Searching Sail, were used to kill hundreds of millions of human beings in the thirty-seventh level and refine them into a pill.

When Duan De found out, he was terrified. Although the boy looked handsome and cold, he didn't have the same demonic nature as the woman in white.

The woman in white was even more bizarre, while the white-haired man was simply devoid of humanity and possessed immense power.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a dark red light appeared in the starry sky. In the cold and dark universe, a dark red light shot out directly from the side of the 50th level of the human race.

The dark red light, aimed directly at Xu Changqing's brow, emanated an extremely powerful aura, seemingly surpassing even that of a Saint King, and was not emitted by a Saint at all.

Xu Changqing's expression changed drastically, goosebumps rose all over his body, a faint sense of death enveloped his mind, and his hair stood on end.

He felt a stinging pain between his eyebrows. This was an attack targeting his primordial spirit, and he couldn't withstand it. Although he wouldn't die if he did, the sacred artifact protecting his primordial spirit would disappear.

Without further hesitation, he immediately used his movement technique and divine speed to appear beside Duan De, who was only two meters away, in an instant.

He pulled Duanda, who was deep in thought, in front of him.

Before Duan De could react, a red light struck his forehead.
