The Formless Universe is one of the countless minor worlds in the heavens, a minor world left behind by the Heavenly Emperor.

When Wang Sheng ascended Mount Buzhou, took control of the universe's rules, and attained the supreme status of the tenth realm, he personally descended upon this small world, took action to suppress and kill the chosen one of this era, severed the greatest source of fortune in this world, and smoothed out the heaven-defying variables.

After the war, Xuan Yuan Ancient Ancestor, the only one who managed to escape from the Heavenly Emperor's deadly attack, was still shaken, but he also learned of a great secret.

Only then did he realize that the Heavenly Emperor, who had dominated all ages and suppressed destiny, had not truly perished, but had transcended this world, ascended to a higher dimension, and taken control of the Great Dao of the Universe.

From then on, the ancient ancestor Xuanyuan traveled the world, traversed the eight wastelands, and persuaded all races, spreading a secret that shook the ages—the Heavenly Emperor was still in the human world and had not perished!

It also reveals a shocking truth: the sacred mountain in the hearts of all living beings is not an ancient relic, but was built by the Heavenly Emperor, who is unique and supreme throughout the ages!

The moment the news broke, a massive wave swept through the entire small world, shaking all races and engulfing all directions!

This small world is now extremely profound, containing countless top-tier forces with histories spanning tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years.

Sects, ancient clans, holy lands, and reclusive lineages stand in abundance, their foundations stretching back to ancient times. They overlook the mortal world, upholding their ancient traditions, and have always been proud and aloof, neither worshipping the common people nor respecting any living beings.

But when they personally went out to investigate the Dao of Heaven and Earth, trace the traces of time, and verify the ancient secrets, all the top forces were horrified, their hearts trembled, and they knelt down in fear!

Countless ancient traditions have verified that the Heavenly Emperor's true spirit is immortal, his Dao imprint endures, his mark remains for eternity, and he still overlooks this world!

At the same time, the news that the chosen one of destiny was killed by the Heavenly Emperor with a single finger and that the heaven-defying variables were completely wiped out spread throughout the world.

In an instant, all races were filled with fear and trepidation, and all forces were trembling with apprehension.

Once upon a time, the chosen one was born in accordance with the will of Heaven, bearing the ultimate destiny of the entire small world. He was revered by all races as the future supreme ruler and the rightful heir of Heaven and Earth, and countless forces vied to attach themselves to him and devote themselves to his assistance.

But now, the Mandate of Heaven has died, while the Heavenly Emperor lives on!

It is clear at a glance who is strong and who is weak, who is right and who is wrong!

All the ancient powers were completely awakened, losing all their arrogance and pride, and abandoning their age-old status and domineering pride.

Even though the Heavenly Emperor no longer reigns in this world, he remains the supreme ruler who reigns supreme for all eternity and whose position is unshakeable!

Thus, the top powers that had never joined forces for hundreds of thousands of years, fighting and killing each other without yielding to one another, broke with tradition, put aside their grudges, resolved their disputes, and united as one.

One after another, ancient monsters who have lived for countless ages have emerged from seclusion to take charge, and countless hidden talents have come out to form the Eternal Heavenly Court Alliance!

The world swears an oath to rebuild the ancient Heavenly Court system, restore order to the heavens and earth, purify the world of evil, protect the Heavenly Emperor's lineage, offer daily sacrifices and annual pilgrimages, and await the Heavenly Emperor's return to regain control of the universe!

From that moment on, this small world underwent a complete transformation.

The Heavenly Court is the legitimate authority, surpassing all races and ruling over all directions, becoming the sole supreme order in the world.

The name of the Heavenly Emperor is thoroughly imprinted in every inch of the land, every wisp of Daoist charm, and in the thoughts of every living being.

In the years following the reconstruction of the Heavenly Court, every mountain, river, ancient site, and blessed land in this world was traced back to its origins, deified, and worshipped by later generations.

The ancient battlefields where the Heavenly Emperor once fought, swept across the eight wastelands, pacified the chaotic world, and suppressed gods and demons have been listed as sacred forbidden areas, worshipped for all ages, and no one dares to desecrate them.

The stone platform atop Mount Zhen Ding, where the Heavenly Emperor once stopped to cultivate, meditate, and rest, has been inscribed with words by all races and its incense has been burned for eternity.

The simple palace and altar where the Heavenly Emperor once lived were repaired and expanded by countless forces with all their resources, and transformed into the world's first holy altar.

Even the enemies that the Heavenly Emperor swept away, the demons he suppressed, and the rebellious ministers he destroyed were recorded in the Heavenly Court's history books, passed down through generations, to warn all living beings throughout the ages and to remember the Heavenly Emperor's supreme divine power.

As time flows by, every breeze, every inch of Daoist charm, and every line of inheritance in this small world is deeply engraved with the mark of the Heavenly Emperor.

The two words "Heavenly Emperor" represent the highest taboo, the supreme belief, and the ultimate myth of this world!

This world is the very land of the Heavenly Emperor!

In the primordial chaos, a divine soul broke through the dimensional barrier, crossed the boundary river of the universe, and quietly descended into this world.

It was Qingyan who was reincarnated from the Pyramid Killing Domain Universe.

Reincarnation and purification, memory sealing, physical reshaping, and rebirth from the beginning.

When Qingyan regained consciousness, opened his eyes in a daze, and regained his senses, he had already been born into this small world that was completely permeated with the belief in the Heavenly Emperor.

Upon initial awakening, the child was unaware and ignorant, with a tender and weak body. However, deep within his soul, the foundation and mindset belonging to the eternal killing god, the genius of a hundred reincarnations, and the ninety-eight-step peak forbidden realm had never truly faded away.

After a brief period of adjusting to his body, sorting through his memories, and regaining his senses, Qingyan instantly grasped his situation and also heard the legends of the Heavenly Emperor of this world.

Upon hearing the supreme myth of the so-called "Heavenly Emperor," and seeing the world's mad worship, the universal adoration, and the submission of all races, Qingyan felt only indifference and disdain.

What talk of an eternal Heavenly Emperor, an eternal supreme being, and divine mandate to suppress all!

In his eyes, which had witnessed the eternal struggles of the universe, the rise and fall of the supreme beings of the heavens, and the true pinnacle of the Great Dao.

The so-called Heavenly Emperor of this mortal world is nothing more than a local overlord, a false god in a corner.

So-called ancient myths and the ultimate in the world are insignificant and trivial when placed in the true realm of the Great Dao.

People are foolish, narrow-minded, and confined to their own corners of the world, which leads to blind worship and fanatical deification.

Qingyan scoffed, showing absolutely no respect.

His only thought was spiritual cultivation!

Reborn and reincarnated, escaping the infernal realm of slaughter and breaking free from the shackles of eternity, he is determined to rise rapidly, reclaim his peak, reverse the outcome of the gamble, and crush everything!

This world is rich in spiritual energy, profound in Daoist principles, and stable in order. Compared to the pyramid universe, where endless killing and mutual devouring occur, it is a world apart and a perfect fertile land!

In Qingyan's view, this place is the best cradle for his rise against all odds and his path to godhood!

He calmed his mind, concealed his true strength, and lay low to grow. From a young age, he displayed terrifying talent, extraordinary potential, and unparalleled comprehension that far surpassed his peers.

Naturally gifted in physical form, with a flawless Daoist heart, photographic memory, quick mastery of any subject, and profound understanding of everything learned!

As he grew older, Qingyan joined a powerful sect—the Lingxiao Sect.

On the day of the entrance examination, his cultivation aptitude, martial arts foundation, and compatibility with the Great Dao directly shocked the entire sect!

The spirit-testing stone burst forth with unprecedentedly brilliant light, the Dao platform resonated with the ancient Dao, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth frantically gathered around it, causing a rare celestial phenomenon that the sect could not witness in ten thousand years!

All the sect elders, supreme venerables, and sect leaders were shocked and amazed!

"The greatest talent in history!"

"A prodigy unparalleled in a thousand years!"

"This child possesses boundless fortune and a naturally perfected Dao body; he is the strongest being born from the heavens and earth!"

Countless exclamations of amazement resounded throughout the sect.

In just a few days, rumors spread throughout the cultivation world that the Lingxiao Sect had produced an unparalleled genius, comparable to the former Heavenly Emperor and capable of succeeding the Heavenly Emperor's lineage!

All races and celestial forces in the world have learned that a peerless prodigy, almost comparable to the Heavenly Emperor, has been born!

Qingyan's name was elevated to godhood in a single day, resounding throughout heaven and earth!

In an instant, countless eyes were focused on him, endless resources were poured into him, sects devoted themselves to his training, elders vied to take him as a disciple, and various forces took the initiative to curry favor with him.

Qingyan remained calm and composed.

He had anticipated this scenario.

With his profound knowledge of reincarnation, exceptional talent, and eternal Dao body, it was only natural that he could crush all living beings in this mortal world.

As he envisioned, he possessed immense fortune and unparalleled talent. The Heavenly Court regarded him as the successor to the Heavenly Emperor and the future rightful heir of the world. He would surely be treasured by the entire Heavenly Court Alliance, fully protected, and nurtured with all available resources. He would rise to the pinnacle of this world with an unparalleled rise and smooth sailing!

But he never expected this.

Fame does not bring glory or a smooth path, but rather death and annihilation!

On the third day, when the world was in a state of great glory and fame, a bloody catastrophe suddenly descended!

His secular family, an ordinary martial arts family that had been rooted in the world for hundreds of years and passed down its traditions peacefully, was wiped out overnight by top experts!

Slaughter descended, blood stained the clan, corpses piled up like mountains, not even chickens or dogs were spared!

The entire clan, numbering several hundred, including the old, young, women, children, and innocent mortals, all perished tragically; not a single person escaped!

The massacre of an entire family happened suddenly and without warning!

At that time, Qingyan had just entered the martial arts world and had only cultivated a rudimentary level of Grandmaster of Harmony Force. In front of truly top-tier experts, he was as weak as an ant and as insignificant as dust.

Amidst the bloody carnage, an extremely terrifying figure strode through the air, his oppressive aura sweeping across hundreds of miles, his life force suppressing mountains and rivers!

That was a True Monarch at the peak of his power, who had long transcended the mortal martial arts and stood at the pinnacle of this world, known as the First-Rank True Monarch of Tianquan.

His cultivation is unparalleled, his strength is overwhelming, he can suppress mountains and rivers with a single thought, and shatter all things with a single palm!

Tianquan First-Rank True Monarch's eyes were icy cold and filled with murderous intent as he locked onto Qingyan, the only survivor in the crowd. His gaze held no pity, only a chilling intent to kill.

"A monstrous talent has appeared out of nowhere, seeking to replicate the Heavenly Emperor's lineage; you cannot be allowed to live!"

"Today, I will execute you here and now, to prevent future troubles!"

As the cold shout fell, the First-Rank True Monarch of the Heavenly Spring raised his hand and unleashed a deadly palm strike!

The palm wind tore through the sky, the energy crushed the earth, and the killing intent enveloped the surrounding area!

The difference between He Jin and Zhen Jun is like heaven and earth!

Desperate situation has arrived; the outcome is certain!

Qingyan's pupils shrank suddenly, his soul trembled, and a storm raged in his heart!

He fought countless battles and experienced numerous life-or-death situations.

But at this moment, his physical body was weak, his cultivation was low, he was powerless to resist, and he had nowhere to escape!

suddenly,

The Heavenly Spring First-Rank True Monarch, who was about to kill Qing Yan with a single palm strike, suddenly froze!

The murderous intent on his face froze instantly, the surging blood and qi around his body suddenly collapsed, his meridians broke inch by inch, and his internal organs instantly rotted!

puff--!

A mouthful of blood spurted into the sky.

This powerful and influential Tianquan First-Rank True Lord, who was capable of dominating a region and laughing at the world, suddenly died on the spot without any warning, resistance, or external injury!

His body plummeted straight down, his life extinguished instantly, and he died a mysterious and utter death!

The entire room fell silent!

On the crimson ruins of the clan, only the young Qingyan stood silently, his body covered in cold sweat and his mind trembling.

Before he could react, an extremely terrifying force of pulling in the void suddenly enveloped him!

Space is distorted, dimensions are collapsing, and air currents are raging!

Qingyan felt the world spinning before his eyes, and his body was instantly enveloped by the invisible power of the Great Dao, tearing through space and traversing the void!

The next second, his figure vanished instantly into the blood-red earth, completely escaping the mortal world.

When Qingyan opened his eyes again, he was already standing in the heavens above the universe!

There were no mountains, rivers, or land beneath his feet, no living beings; all around him was endless darkness and chaos, drifting Daoist energy, and boundless gales.

The void is desolate and lonely, eternally cold and desolate.

In the void before him, a terrifying figure that shook heaven and earth hung prominently in the sky!

He was a man bound tightly by layers of iron chains along the dark road.

Iron chains pierced through the body, imprisoned the soul, sealed cultivation, and locked away the Great Dao!

The man was engulfed in endless crimson flames, the flames burning the heavens and scorching the ages, the firelight illuminating the entire dark void, exuding extreme dominance and boundless divine power.

No matter how fierce the flames, they could not burn through the divine chains of the Great Dao that wrapped around its body, nor could it break free from the eternal confinement.

The endless torment, confinement, and suffering of the past years have made him exude a weathered, violent, and agonizing aura.

Simply by standing here, it exudes a terrifying pressure that suppresses this small world, far surpassing the world's Grandmaster of Harmony and exceeding all ancient ancestors and great powers!

Qingyan's soul trembled, but his heart was filled with unwavering certainty:

This is a true ancient ancestor-level supreme powerhouse!

The pinnacle of combat power in this mortal world!

The fiery man suspended in the void slowly lowered his eyes, his gaze piercing through the eternal darkness, locking firmly onto Qing Yan. His voice was hoarse, pained, and low, carrying the resentment and vicissitudes of countless years:

"No need for further explanation."

"I have an irreconcilable, eternal hatred for that so-called Heavenly Emperor!"

The man continued speaking slowly.

"The myriad races of Heaven, seemingly revering the Heavenly Emperor, worshipping the Daoist tradition, and protecting the heritage, are in reality each harboring their own ulterior motives and boundless selfishness!"

"Their rebuilding of the Heavenly Court and their waiting for the Heavenly Emperor's return is not out of reverence, but out of fear!"

"They fear the Heavenly Emperor's supreme divine power, are wary of his control over the universe, and are afraid of his return to settle scores from ancient times!"

"Now you have appeared out of nowhere, possessing unparalleled talent and boundless fortune, and are hailed by the world as the second Heavenly Emperor!"

"That ancient power that controls the Heavenly Court and wields authority in the world fears most your growth, your replication of the Heavenly Emperor's lineage, and your restoration of the Heavenly Emperor's divine might!"

"Therefore, they will stop at nothing to nip you in the bud!"

He revealed the truth of this world in just a few words.

Qingyan's strength is still weak. Due to his insufficient understanding of this world and his lack of knowledge about the true relationship between the Heavenly Emperor and all races, he misjudged the situation.

Why did he, with his unparalleled talent and fame throughout the world, suffer the annihilation of his family and the hatred of being killed?

It wasn't a lack of opportunity, nor was it a plot by enemies; it was the fear and ultimate goal of the world's top powers!

The man's voice grew increasingly weary, yet it carried an overwhelming sense of earnestness.

"I have been asleep for hundreds of thousands of years, blending with the world and lying dormant in the void. Today, the way of heaven has changed dramatically and my destiny has fallen, and I have only just awakened."

"I sense that all the heavenly fortune is converging upon you. Your talent, your destiny, and your foundation in the Dao crush all living beings in this world. Your future is limitless and immeasurable!"

"Therefore, I am willing to help you rise against the heavens, dominate the world, and overthrow the Heavenly Court!"

At this point, a glimmer of hope ignited in the man's eyes, a hope tinged with both endless anticipation and anguish.

"On the day you reach the pinnacle, achieve perfect enlightenment, transcend this world, and ascend to the Great Dao!"

"Never forget the kindness you showed us today!"

"Help me break free from the chains of the Great Dao, break through the seal, and escape this prison!"

After hearing everything, Qingyan frowned, his gaze deep, staring intently at the man engulfed in raging flames in the void, and asked in a deep voice:

"Who exactly are you?!"

The man in the void remained silent for a moment, then flames surged around him and his Daoist aura surged, revealing his true form!

His body was as red as fire and as black as an abyss, with the two ultimate paths intertwined, mutually generating and restraining each other, and merging into one.

The Avenue of Flames, the Avenue of Emotions!

Simultaneous cultivation of two paths—absolutely terrifying!

What is most bizarre and shocking is his swollen, enormous belly, which resembles that of a pregnant woman carrying several children for ten months, making it both eerie and mysterious.

The merging of the Great Dao over hundreds of thousands of years, the dormancy in the void, and the baptism of the Heavenly Dao have caused his body to change and his Dao body to become mysterious.

The man gazed at the vast emptiness and uttered three words that resonated through the ages:

"I am the Fire Ancestor!"

In the past, he established a forbidden zone, dominated a region, and defied the heavens with his dual cultivation methods. He once fought against the two ancient ancestors, the Heavenly Emperor and the Mysterious Mother.

Ultimately defeated, in a fit of madness, he miraculously escaped into the endless void, avoiding the encirclement and attack of the two ancient ancestors.

For hundreds of thousands of years afterward, he lived in a daze, slumbering in the void, merging with the Great Dao, drifting with the world, barely surviving, and silently lying dormant.

It wasn't until Wang Sheng killed the chosen one of this world, causing the Heavenly Dao to tremble violently and the rules of heaven and earth to be reconstructed, that he finally broke free from his slumber and awakened his ancient remnant soul!

After waking up,

The Fire Ancestor received a response from the Great Dao.

That's why he saved Qingyan, intending to train him to save himself, and then overturn this world and destroy all traces of the Heavenly Emperor.
