I, a spoiled young master, conquered the Crown Princess right from the start!

Above the sky, the black and white realms constantly collided and eroded each other.

Each clash caused space to be silently annihilated and reduced to nothingness.

The White Emperor's domain is vast and bright, brimming with vitality and creative power, seemingly capable of evolving all things.

The realm of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds is a deathly darkness that devours all light and life, containing only reincarnation and end.

Two diametrically opposed forces are engaged in a fundamental confrontation.

However, as time went by, the light in the white realm of the White Emperor began to become unstable, and even began to dim.

His breathing also became slightly disordered.

Ultimately, the old wounds had not healed, affecting their combat effectiveness.

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds keenly sensed this change, and his black domain suddenly expanded, like a giant maw that devoured the sky, fiercely biting towards the white domain!

puff!

The White Emperor's figure flickered and appeared from the void, spraying a mouthful of golden blood into the sky.

His face grew increasingly pale.

"White Emperor, you have been defeated."

The figure of the Lord of the Netherworld appeared opposite him, his voice cold.

Below, Situ Jun and Fairy Luoxue were also in grave danger and were retreating step by step under the siege of eight soul-reaping messengers.

Bai Luoxue stood in front of the city lord's mansion, looking at her father coughing up blood in the air. Her heart clenched instantly, and her eyes were filled with tears and worry.

"Father!"

She screamed.

The White Emperor wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, glanced at the battle below, then at his daughter, and finally looked toward the Fountain of Youth.

His eyes became incredibly resolute.

"Is that so?"

He looked at the Lord of the Netherworld and suddenly smiled.

That smile carried a sense of madness and devastation.

"I, the Emperor, have not yet lost!"

Before he finished speaking, his aura suddenly surged!

Streams of pure primordial power were being burned wildly by him, like fuel!

At this moment, his physical body and his soul shone with an unprecedented brilliance!

A terrifying aura, several times stronger than before, suddenly erupted from Bai Di's body!

"Madman! How dare you burn the Emperor's essence!" The Nine Netherworld Lord's expression changed drastically, and he shouted angrily.

Burning one's very essence—this is a forbidden technique used by emperors to perish together with their enemies! Once used, even if one survives, one will inevitably fall from the Emperor realm, one's foundation will be completely destroyed, and one will never make any further progress!

"Is it worth it for the sake of a human emperor's successor?" The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds couldn't understand.

"There must always be someone to protect this world."

The White Emperor's voice was calm yet firm. He raised his hand, which was burning with golden flames, and pointed it towards the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds.

"This finger is for the human race!"

Om-!

A giant golden finger, reaching to the heavens and the earth, seemed to transcend time and space, carrying the supreme power of the flourishing of humanity, and slammed down on the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds!

"Damn it!"

The Lord of the Netherworld sensed a deadly crisis. He roared, and a vast and boundless phantom of the Netherworld appeared behind him. The Six Paths of Reincarnation Wheel spun wildly, transforming into a black shield that reached the heavens and the earth, blocking his way.

Rumble—!!!

The giant golden finger collided with the black shield with a deafening roar!

This time, there was no energy contained within.

An indescribable storm of destruction swept across the heavens and the earth in an instant!

The entire city of Baidi was shaking violently, as if it would collapse at any moment under this force!

Click!

After a mere three breaths of stalemate, the black shield formed from the Six Paths of Reincarnation was covered in cracks and shattered with a crash!

The golden giant finger, its power undiminished, slammed into the chest of the Lord of the Netherworld.

"puff!"

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds was struck as if by lightning, flying tens of thousands of miles backward. A bloody hole, clear from front to back, appeared in his chest. Countless golden laws of humanity, like maggots clinging to his bones, frantically eroded his life force.

He glanced down at his own injuries, then at the White Emperor below, whose aura was rapidly waning and who could barely stand. A flicker of fear and resentment flashed in his eyes.

"White Emperor, you just wait!"

He uttered a harsh threat and shouted to his eight men who were engaged in fierce combat below, "Retreat!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he tore through the void, and with eight soul-reaping messengers, he fled into it in a disheveled state, disappearing instantly.

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds has retreated.

But Baidi City did not find peace as a result.

High in the sky, the golden flames on the White Emperor's body slowly died down. His body trembled violently, and his black hair turned white at a visible speed. His heroic face aged hundreds of thousands of years in an instant.

"Thump!"

He could no longer hold on and plummeted straight down from the sky.

"Father!"

"City Lord!"

Bai Luoxue, Situ Jun, and Fairy Luoxue's expressions changed drastically, and they rushed forward to help him up.

"Cough cough...cough..."

The White Emperor coughed violently, each cough expelling large amounts of golden fragments—his shattered essence.

"Father, how are you?" Bai Luoxue supported him, tears streaming down her face.

"He won't die..." The White Emperor forced a smile, his gaze sweeping over everyone and landing on Chu Feng, who was still unconscious in the Fountain of Youth, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

He turned to look at Bai Luoxue, and with his last bit of strength, gave the order.

"Activate... the city's protective formation!"

"Highest level!"

Bai Luoxue's heart skipped a beat, and she nodded heavily.

The next second, a mighty bell rang throughout the entire city.

Om-!

A massive golden light curtain rose into the sky from the city lord's mansion, rapidly expanding until it transformed into a huge golden dome that completely enveloped the entire White Emperor City.

Baidi City is under lockdown!

This news, along with the news that the White Emperor burned his source and severely injured the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, spread throughout the myriad realms like a level twelve cosmic storm in just half a day!

Numerous forces have discerned a chilling subtext from these two pieces of news.

Bai Di... is dying!

……

Divine Court.

That magnificent palace complex, suspended high in the heavens and forged from endless divine gold.

Inside the central Divine Hall, a blurry figure sat high on a divine throne atop ninety-nine steps, shrouded in chaotic energy, obscuring his features.

He is the current God Lord who rules the Divine Court.

"The White Emperor burns his very essence, his life force exhausted... Activate the city's protective array..."

The deity's fingers tapped lightly on the armrest, his eyes gleaming with an inexplicable light.

"Truly... Heaven is on my side."

He spoke slowly, his voice carrying a hint of barely suppressed excitement.

The White Emperor has always been one of the biggest obstacles to his unification of the heavens and the establishment of a supreme divine kingdom.

Now, this obstacle is about to disappear on its own.

"Reveal my decree."

The voice of the deity became cold and majestic.

"Mobilize all the divine generals of the 'Heaven' and 'Earth' divisions, along with a million-strong army of the Divine Court, and deploy them outside Baidi City!"

"At all costs, storm the city!"

"We must bring that successor of the Human Emperor back alive!"

"As you command!"

……

at the same time.

The Sacred Land of Heavenly Ruins, the Ancient Golden Clan, the Huangfu Divine Clan, the Golden Crow Clan, the Winged Clan, the Blood Clan...

These top forces, who had a blood feud with Chu Feng, made the same decision as the Divine Court almost simultaneously after learning that the White Emperor was about to die.

One after another, old monsters at the Void God Realm and even Quasi-Emperor Realm were awakened from their slumber.

One by one, supreme holy weapons and even quasi-emperor weapons that had been sealed away for countless years were brought out.

Elite armies composed of Saint Realm experts began to assemble.

They have only one goal.

—Baidi City, Chu Feng!

A storm is brewing, and the entire celestial realm is shrouded in the shadow of war.

……

And in the heavens, there is a dark star field unknown to anyone.

Here, shrouded in endless demonic energy, every star appears a lifeless, deathly gray-black.

This star field is the Demon Realm.

Above the Demon Realm, there are golden chains that stretch across the Milky Way. These chains are covered with dense ancient runes and exude an aura of supreme power and masculinity.

This is the seal that the Human Emperor himself set up to suppress the entire Demon Race.

However, at this moment, the golden chains had become extremely dim, and there were even obvious cracks in several places.

Strands of demonic energy were seeping out from the cracks.

It is precisely because of this that beings like the Primordial Demon Child were able to leave the Demon Realm and appear in the Heavenly Realm.

Deep within the Demon Realm.

Inside a palace built from the bones of billions of living beings.

In the center of the main hall, there was a huge black stone coffin.

The stone coffin was also engraved with mysterious golden runes, echoing the seal on the outside world.

At this moment, the Primordial Demon Prince, who had shone brightly on the Myriad Realms Prodigy Ranking and even dared to compete with Chu Feng, was kneeling trembling in front of the stone coffin, not daring to lift his head.
