Battle Through the Heavens: Exceptional Comprehension, Becomes Emperor at Ten Years Old

Chapter 241 A Year of Sealing, Hope!

The surging demonic energy surrounding the Devouring Demon Emperor was imprisoned by these chains.

"This is impossible! You alone cannot possibly seal me again!" The Devouring Demon Emperor roared, but he could not break the terrifying seal.

Feeling that familiar oppressive aura, the Devouring Demon Emperor also felt a sense of panic.

The Soul Emperor's refined face now turned incredibly ferocious. Imprisoned underground for tens of thousands of years, the Devouring Demon Emperor had had enough!

boom!

A terrifying aura capable of destroying the heavens and the earth suddenly erupted, and the Devouring Demon Emperor began to break through the blockade without regard for the cost.

But all of this was in vain. It was clear that the Ancient Emperor had already anticipated that the Devouring Demon Emperor would launch a counterattack.

All the power of the ancient emperor was transformed into seals, which resonated with the sealing array underground.

Endless energy from heaven and earth began to converge, and the energy light above the sealing array grew brighter and brighter.

"seal up!"

A voice, seemingly from ancient times, resounded, and the seal was officially formed.

Rumble!

A muffled rumble of thunder sounded, and the two seals suddenly merged together, the figure of the Soul Emperor disappearing into the seal.

The world seemed to return to peace, and the surging demonic energy disappeared.

Only a faint figure remained in place; it was none other than the Ancient Emperor.

Gu Yuan flew over and bowed respectfully before the Ancient Emperor, saying, "Gu Yuan, a descendant of the Ancient Clan, pays respects to his ancestor!"

The ancient emperor slowly turned around, his figure almost fading away.

"You're quite good!" The Ancient Emperor looked at Gu Yuan and suddenly said this.

Gu Yuan said, "Thank you for your praise, ancestor!"

"Did our ancestor seal away the Devouring Demon Emperor once again?" Gu Yuan asked, looking at the Ancient Emperor.

The Ancient Emperor shook his head slightly and said, "No, the Devouring Demon Emperor is not so easy to kill. If it were that easy, we four Dou Di would have directly suppressed and killed him instead of sealing him away!"

Upon hearing the ancient emperor's words, Gu Yuan felt that they made some sense.

"What about just now?" Gu Yuan asked, somewhat puzzled.

The ancient emperor said, "I used all my power to seal this Devouring Demon Emperor once again, but this seal will soon be broken again!"

"And at that time, if no one can stop him, he will absorb the power of the Dou Di within the sealing array, and his strength will at least recover to 90% of its original level!"

"One year. This seal is only for one year. With your current cultivation level, you must break through to the Dou Di realm within one year. Only then will you have a chance to survive!" the Ancient Emperor said slowly.

Hearing the ancient emperor's words, Gu Yuan also said bitterly, "Ancestor, if there were truly such a glimmer of hope, I would be willing to fight for it. But right now, my chance to break through to the Dou Di realm seems endless!"

The ancient emperor frowned and said, "How is this possible? Your cultivation is only a hair's breadth away from the Dou Di realm, how can it be so far away?"

Gu Yuan said somewhat dejectedly, "Because the Origin Qi needed to break through to Dou Di has been gone for tens of thousands of years. The peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng experts have severed the path to Dou Di!"

The ancient emperor was somewhat shocked. "The Origin Qi has disappeared? Is this really true?"

Then the Ancient Emperor looked at Gu Yuan and said, "When we sealed the Devouring Demon Emperor, we discovered the connection between the Dou Qi Continent and the Great Thousand World. But it was precisely because of that connection that this extraterrestrial demon took advantage of the loophole and invaded the Dou Qi Continent!"

"Therefore, we, the few Dou Di, decided that in our final moment of life and death, we would sever the only connection between the Dou Qi Continent and the Great Thousand World!"

"However, another Dou Di once said that there is a very strange energy in the connection between Dou Qi Continent and the Great Thousand World, and one must absorb and refine it to break through to Dou Di."

"But in order to prevent the Dou Qi Continent from being cut off in our hands, we ultimately chose the path of sealing it."

Gu Yuan then looked at the Ancient Emperor and said, "Since the Devouring Demon Emperor was able to break the seal, can we also break our connection with the Great Thousand Worlds?"

Gu Yuan's eyes held a glimmer of hope; he wished to gain the Ancient Emperor's approval.

Unfortunately, the Ancient Emperor slowly said, "To break that seal, you need at least the strength of a Dou Di!"

Everything has gone back to square one!

The figure of the Ancient Emperor faded even further. He looked at Gu Yuan and said, "Remember, the Devouring Demon Emperor's greatest ability is devouring. If you can break through to the Dou Di realm within a year, only by severing his devouring power will you have a slim chance of killing him. Otherwise, the Dou Qi Continent will face annihilation!"

As the words fell, the ancient emperor's figure finally and slowly disappeared!

Gu Yuan had no idea how to face all of this.

Although the Devouring Demon Emperor has been sealed, it will only last for one year. If no one breaks through to the Dou Di realm within that year, the Dou Qi Continent will still face a dead end.

……

Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Cave Mansion.

Above the void, Gah sat cross-legged, a fiery cauldron rising and falling before him, terrifying fire elemental power burning, and the surrounding space constantly being torn apart.

Gahe was immersed in the process of refining Emperor-grade pills. Although he possessed an Emperor-level soul, he always seemed to be just a little bit lacking when it came to refining Emperor-grade pills.

Gahe slowly opened his eyes and looked at the round pill in the fire cauldron, which exuded a terrifying power.

"Almost, still a little short!" Jiahe waved his hand, and the fire cauldron condensed, enveloping the Emperor-grade embryonic pill within it.

Gah murmured, "Where exactly is the difference? Is it the flame itself? But my flame is almost as powerful as that strange flame!"

"How about we try using a different kind of fire?"

Immediately, Jiahe got up and walked out of the Tuoshegudi Cave.

Gah tore open a spatial rift and traversed space at high speed, heading towards Zhongzhou.

A few days later, Gah appeared in the imperial city.

Little Fairy Doctor, Ya Fei, Yun Yun, and the other girls were also surprised that Jia He would emerge from seclusion at this time.

"Have you already broken through to the Dou Di realm?" Little Fairy Doctor looked at Jiahe with some curiosity.

Jiahe shook his head slightly and said, "No, it's just a hair's breadth away from being able to condense into a true Emperor-grade pill!"

"What should we do? We received news that the ancient seal has broken, and an extraterrestrial demon has been resurrected by using the soul and body of the Soul Emperor!" Ya Fei said to Jia He with some worry.

Gah frowned and asked, "What extraterrestrial demons?"

Then Little Fairy Doctor and the others recounted what had happened in the Desolate Ancient Domain.

Jiahe was also surprised to find that there really was an extraterrestrial demon that had been sealed by a Dou Di tens of thousands of years ago, and that it had even broken free of its seal not long ago!

"It seems that refining the Emperor-grade pills is urgent!" Jiahe also felt a sense of urgency.

When Gu Yuan, Zhu Kun, Lei Ying, and several other clan leaders heard that Jia He had emerged from seclusion, they all came to the Imperial City.

They hoped to see the scene they wanted to see, but unfortunately, Jiahe did not advance to the Dou Di level.

Jiahe looked at Yan Jin and said, "The refining of the Emperor-grade pills might be a little lacking. I need Clan Chief Yan's help!"

Yan Jin said to Jia He, "Everything is up to your command."

Jiahe nodded slightly and said, "I also need the help of Xiao Yan and Gu Xun'er, as well as Huo Xuan and Huo Zhi of the Yan Clan, to use your strange fire for the final refining!"

"Can this... succeed?" Zhu Kun asked with some concern.

Gah said, "I don't know, but this is the only thing we can try for now!"

Soon, Xiao Yan and the others arrived at the Imperial City, ready to use their strange fire to help Jia He refine imperial-grade pills!

Updates should continue normally until the story is complete!
