Shrouding the Heavens: The Ruthless Heavenly Emperor

As he spoke, the green-haired old man couldn't help but choke up. Among those young prodigies were several of his prized disciples, but they were killed in the thirteenth level.

He couldn't avenge himself because Wuqing was too fierce and brutal. There was a guide who had the cultivation of a Great Sage at the seventh level and even possessed a forbidden artifact of a Quasi-Emperor, but he still died at Wuqing's hands.

Ruthless also escaped severely injured, and in the process, he refined countless living beings, extracted their essence, condensed their life force, and restored himself.

The green-haired old man, with only the cultivation level of the fourth level of the Great Sage realm, dared not face Xu Changqing at all.

The old man had fiery red hair, a robust build, and a face that looked a bit wrinkled, but his calm expression had vanished, replaced by a gloomy look.

This was the worst news he had ever heard since he was born, and also the most unbelievable news he had ever heard.

Because throughout the entire universe, there are not many forces that dare to be enemies of their race.

“Aomeng, go and kill him.”

The red-haired old man's gloomy words spread throughout the entire Heavenly Severance Forbidden Zone. As the strongest person in the Heavenly Severance Forbidden Zone, he naturally didn't need to take action. After all, he had his own pride and didn't want to be accused of bullying the weak.

However, just because he is not good enough doesn't mean he is not a good person.

Moreover, for him, this was a trivial matter; guarding the birth of that Holy Spirit was the true path.

Within the floating stone palace in the sky, a large blue hall emitted a blinding light, and an immense pressure began to appear intermittently, accompanied by a heavy breathing sound.

Deep within the blue palace, several divine sources sealed away several holy spirits and weapons.

A middle-aged man was sealed within a divine source.

He suddenly opened his eyes, and two beams of divine light, carrying an incomparably vast aura, pierced through the Heavenly Broken Forbidden Zone. The pressure belonging to a Quasi-Emperor spread out, causing all the heavens to tremble and the Great Dao to groan.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"boom!"

The middle-aged Holy Spirit broke free of the divine source, his face expressionless and his eyes icy cold. He looked at the black halberd sealed in the divine source beside him, shattered it, and then charged into the starry sky with the halberd in hand.

"Go with him." The red-haired old man's expression gradually returned to calm. He turned around and looked at the old man kneeling on the ground.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The green-haired elder looked...

Not daring to look at the Fire Dao Supreme, he respectfully withdrew.

The red-haired old man vanished in a flash, disappearing within two days.

He came to a stone palace, looked at a black humanoid holy spirit, and murmured, "You must be born soon, or you will miss this great era."

"Master, I understand. In at most another hundred years, I will be able to be born. Once I am born, I will be a peak Quasi-Emperor, or even achieve Dao through an alternative path!"

A cold, youthful voice emanated from the black, humanoid stone. The stone looked like metal, with dragon-shaped patterns spreading across its surface, intertwined with golden lines.

This is a Holy Spirit born from the dragon-patterned black gold!

“Your true form is Immortal Metal. Once you are born, you will be an extremely terrifying existence. You might even become a Great Emperor upon your birth.”

"However, in this life, there are two people who pose a threat to you. The first is Ruthless, and the second is Devourer of Heaven."

"As for the others, they're all monkeys."

The Fire Emperor's lips curled into a cold smile. He had been waiting for this moment for an unknown amount of time.

This is the first spirit in history to be born from dragon-patterned black gold and develop sentience. He had never heard of any other piece of immortal gold that could grow into such a form.

Of course, he didn't know that there was another piece of immortal gold and green tears that was a holy spirit.

Xu Changqing stopped after fighting his way into the thirtieth level of the Holy Spirit Ancient Road, because there were very few Holy Spirit guides appearing nowadays, and he was afraid that if he continued like this, the consequences would be serious.

"Once I become a quasi-emperor, I will storm into the Heavenly Destruction Forbidden Zone and personally kill that Holy Spirit."

He hated being hunted down by the Holy Spirit for no reason, but he was very rational and stopped after he had killed enough people.

We need to go back to the ancient human path.

Go and compete with those human and demon prodigies.

As for the ancient roads that converge in all the heavens and myriad worlds, he still killed every Holy Spirit he encountered.

Now, Xu Changqing's fearsome reputation has spread throughout the entire starry sky, inspiring fear and envy in countless people.

Chapter 58 A Terrifying Reputation That Shakes the Starry Sky

At the seventy-first level of the human race, the city was bustling with noise and various discussions.

"Awesome! He slaughtered the Holy Spirit's Imperial Pass all by himself, and even fought his way up to the thirtieth level. All of their younger generation was wiped out, leaving only a few oddballs of our generation. They could never be a match for Devourer of Heaven and Ruthless."

"Although three years have passed since this major event, people still talk about this massacre every day."

"The Overlord and the others are finished. Whether it's the Overlord Body or the Divine Body, they have all been defeated by Devourer of Heaven, and even their origins have been absorbed."

"However, I recently heard that Devouring Heaven is being hunted down by the ten great families of the Imperial Road. I wonder what the outcome will be."

Xu Changqing spent three years and did everything in his power to escape.

He had just entered the seventy-first level of the human race when he heard whispers, but because he had disguised his appearance, no one could recognize him.

The roads in Qingshipucheng are lined with all kinds of buildings, from ancient and simple to high-tech lofts and even villas.

The myriad realms are not limited to the Eternal Starfield, which is a technological starfield.

Moreover, the Imperial Road is filled with outstanding talents and powerful individuals from all over the world.

I randomly picked a restaurant to sit down and try the dishes from the depths of the Imperial Road, only to see a fat man eating meat and drinking wine with a pale face.

"Damn it, how come the good grave I just found was dug up?"

Frustrated, Duan De was extremely frustrated. In the seventy-first level of the human race, there was an ancient tomb, but he had gone to great lengths to get inside, only to find that there was nothing there.

He had encountered this situation more than once. Even on the Emperor's Road, the ancestral halls of some powerful forces in ancient lands of life were dug up, and the corpses were reduced to dust.

"It must be that female demon." Duan De was certain that it was the woman in white from back then.

After all, the white-clad woman's technique was incredibly strange, capable of absorbing the opponent's essence, attacks, and laws, and then turning them into her own.

Moreover, that female demon's fearsome reputation has grown increasingly strong lately, to the point of being comparable to ruthlessness.

The female demon's methods were not as radical as Wuqing's, but they were still extremely domineering. In the Seventh Golden City, under the watchful eyes of everyone, she directly killed all the Holy Spirits, and even the Great Saint Protectors of the other side were shattered by the Quasi-Emperor Artifacts.

"Fortunately, the ten strongest families on the Imperial Road are terrified of the female demon, and now everyone has united to kill her." Duan De breathed a sigh of relief.

The female demon is too dangerous. Not only is she powerful, but she can also absorb the essence of those divine bodies. Even if a person doesn't die, it's no different from being crippled.

The Overlord, a forbidden figure, almost died at the hands of the female demon because he wanted to test her strength. His Overlord Body essence was directly absorbed by her.

The invincible body turned into a mortal body, and the person was even in a state of weakness, with depleted blood and energy, and could only regretfully withdraw from the Emperor's Path.

However, the Hegemony Clan could not tolerate this insult and directly sent several Great Saints to hunt down the female demon. Duan De even heard that a Quasi-Emperor was also hunting down the female demon and Wuqing.

"Both of them are enemies of the world; everyone fears they will go on a killing spree."

"Also afraid that one of them will become..."

After the Emperor, he enslaved the heavens and unleashed a dark turmoil.

"Their fearsome reputation makes many people afraid to even mention them."

Duan De drank his wine, looking around the restaurant; there weren't many people there.

Listening to everyone's discussion, he subconsciously nodded, agreeing with everyone's words.

Ruthless and Devourer of Heaven—these two titles have become taboo in many places, and countless living beings are unwilling to mention or even think of these two names.

Duan De was enjoying his meal when he suddenly noticed a peculiar person, and his eating speed immediately slowed down.

The person, dressed in white, sat opposite me by the window, holding a jade cup. His smooth black hair was draped over his shoulders, and a gentle breeze swayed the ends of his hair.

His face was somewhat thin, with sharp features, and he was strikingly handsome.

He exuded a cool and aloof aura, very quiet, with unfathomable eyes, like the cold moon in the deepest hell, making people feel afraid to approach him.

Just sitting there made the people around him afraid to speak loudly.

But the more Duan De looked, the more familiar it seemed. Although he didn't recognize the appearance or figure, he could still catch the look in the eyes, the temperament, and even some of the subtle movements.

Given the terrifying power of his primordial spirit, he concluded that the man must be someone he knew.

"The female demon's temperament is simply cold and domineering, while the ruthless one's temperament is aloof, domineering yet reserved, the kind that's very quiet. He's somewhat similar to the man opposite him."

Duan De thought about it carefully and found that Wuqing and that man looked a bit alike.

If nothing unexpected happens, it will take several years to travel back from the Holy Spirit Emperor's path.

Three years have passed since Xu Changqing massacred the Holy Spirit Emperor Road. These three years are more than enough time for him to return to the Human Emperor Road.

The more he thought about it, the more shocked he became. Duan De's eyes began to widen, his pupils began to contract, and the meat he was holding with his chopsticks loosened.

He was utterly shocked, thinking to himself, "Could it really be him? He came back unharmed. What exactly is that guide of the Holy Spirit Ancient Road doing?"

He went on a killing spree and came back unscathed, able to sit quietly across from himself drinking and eating meat.

Xu Changqing naturally knew that Duan De was observing him, but he was too lazy to pay attention. This fat man was hard to find and rarely showed his face. Not many people knew him, so he didn't need to disguise himself.

"Recently, two women have also emerged, both of them incredibly powerful. One of them is suspected of having an affair with Wuqing, and the other woman has been dubbed the number one beauty in the starry sky."

"It's strange that four powerful women appeared at the same time in this life: Tian Youqing, the innate Dao fetus, and Gu Yan, the most beautiful woman in the starry sky."

"There is also a female sword immortal who is suspected of having an affair with Wuqing, and there is also the terrifying being Tuntian."

During the time Xu Changqing was away, two new people rose to prominence.

"I don't have many resources left. I need to venture into the eightieth level of the secret realm. I'm sure I'll reap a rich reward." Xu Changqing thought to himself. Although he still had many divine medicines and the like, they were useless to him now.

At his current level, very few treasures would be of any use to him.

Xu Changqing eats

After finishing his business, he left the restaurant and ventured out on his own. He went straight to the city lord's mansion, entered it, found the guide, and asked him to open a passage.

The guide opened the passage with a smile and encouraged, "Wuqing, in this life, it will depend on you few to suppress the heavens. Humanity will surely produce a great emperor!"

This era seems to belong to the human race. Since the beginning of the ancient times, several human emperors have emerged.

Their guides knew that the starry sky was not safe. According to various records, there had been dark and turbulent times in the past, which were also quelled by human emperors.

Their guides already knew about Devourer and Ruthless, so they knew that as long as they didn't provoke them, they would live in peace, but if they did, there was a risk of their clan being wiped out.
