It turns out, they were the main characters.

In the heavens, the rules collapsed, and a blow from the Heavenly Dao descended from the sky!

Almost instantly, deep in the Southern Wilderness, a strange creature with hundreds of eyes suddenly opened its eyes.

"The will of Heaven?!"

"No... how is that possible?"

"She didn't get married in the Holy King City, so why is the will of Heaven descending at this moment?"

The Sky God's mind raced, and almost instantly he realized something, saying in a cold voice, "No, she has deceived the world. The one in the Holy King City is not her true form... The Azure Emperor's true form is undergoing tribulation in the ancestral land of Yaochi. She wants to ascend and ascend to immortality!"

Upon seeing this, several elders from the Southern Wilderness below the stage almost immediately stood up and bowed. The leading elder respectfully said, "My lord, what about us on this side..."

The God of the Sky had a grim face, and was shrouded in thick black mist. He said in a cold voice, "First, have someone bring Regina back as soon as possible."

"As for the Azure Emperor..."

The God of the Sky gazed in the direction of the ancestral land of Yaochi, his eyes now showing a hint of coldness.

"We're not the only ones who don't want her to pass away."

……

Regina fled for her life, traversing mountains and valleys.

She was nearing the Void Return stage, making her the number one among the younger generation even in the Southern Wilderness.

But the number one among the younger generation means absolutely nothing to those old monsters.

In the past, she was a saintess in the Southern Wilderness, second only to the emperor. But now, when she subtly expressed her desire to cultivate in the Eastern Continent for two years, she was met with pursuit by two evil gods of the Southern Wilderness.

boom!

Before Regina, a seemingly young cultivator stretched out his withered hand, and a gloomy black light emerged, transforming into a huge Dharma image that blocked her way.

The Dharma image was immense, seemingly containing the essence of heaven and earth, radiating an extremely terrifying pressure.

Not far behind the young cultivator, nearly a hundred cultivators had already surrounded the area from all sides, and an array covered the space.

"Holy Maiden, if you take another step forward, don't blame me for not showing any mercy."

"This dharma body of heaven and earth... are you Herbert?"

Regina slowly turned her head to look. She was already sickly, and now her face was even paler. She was breathing softly and her eyes were fixed on the young cultivator who was walking slowly from behind her.

Herbert, one of the thirteen tribes of the Sky God of the Southern Wilderness, and the leader of the Mingxin tribe.

The other female evil god beside Herbert is also one of the thirteen, Bahar.

“If you return with us, you will still be the Holy Maiden of the Southern Wilderness,” Bahar said with a charming smile, arms crossed.

Regina's lips were pale, and her eyes were filled with coldness: "Go back with you, and wait to become her vessel after Sheryl returns?"

"So the Holy Maiden already knew."

Bahar said with a grin, "It is an honor for us to be able to merge with Lady Sheeyi. Perhaps Lady Sheeyi will spare your life in the future and allow your spirit to coexist with her."

“I have never heard of any evil god possessing a body and then having two consciousnesses coexisting,” Regina sneered, though she felt an increasing sense of despair in her heart.

She had never believed that Nanhuang would treat her as a vessel, and even after Mu Zhian brought it up, she remained skeptical.

Not long ago, after she rejected the letter from the Southern Wilderness, these two evil gods took advantage of the day of the Azure Emperor's wedding to try to forcibly take her back to the Southern Wilderness.

Mu Zhian was right. He hadn't lied to himself at all... From beginning to end, since her birth, no matter what she did, she was ultimately just a stepping stone for someone else.

Herbert looked up, gazed into the blonde beauty's eyes, and said regretfully, "Since the Holy Maiden refuses to comply, we have no choice but to take action to ask you to return."

"Hey, remember not to hurt the Holy Maiden's body. This is a very precious soul-reading physique. Just break her arms and legs and take her back," Bahar laughed.

A cold glint flashed in Regina's eyes. She was about to circulate her spiritual energy, but she found that it had been completely sealed off by the mysterious domain beneath Herbert's Dharma Body.

She bit her lip and watched helplessly as Bahar reached out his hand to her.

However, a scream suddenly came from outside the mountains in the next moment.

"Who is it?!"

Herbert's expression changed slightly, and he suddenly looked up and around.

Then, in the next moment, a cultivator from the Southern Wilderness was thrown from a distance and crashed into the formation, already lifeless.

"Miss Regina, do you believe me now?"

Upon noticing the source of the sound, Herbert looked in the direction of the sound, while Bahar, standing beside him, narrowed her beautiful eyes and gazed at the figure in white robes in the distance.

"...Mu Zhian?"

Mu Zhian walked out from the depths of the mountains, stood in the cold wind, looked around at the cultivators from the Southern Wilderness and even the Eastern Continent present, and suddenly chuckled.

"What are you laughing at?" Among the cultivators from the Eastern Continent, someone recognized Mu Zhi'an and asked with a furrowed brow.

"They'd betray even their own people for profit, and even help the people of the Southern Wilderness... Isn't that ridiculous enough?" Mu Zhian laughed.

At this moment, Herbert's tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed: "Sixth Rank of Refining Spirit?"

A hint of amusement appeared on his face: "A cultivator at the sixth level of the Spirit Refinement stage, accompanied by a maidservant at the half-step Void Return stage, rashly comes to play the hero and rescue the damsel in distress?"

Bahar, standing to the side, raised her eyebrows slightly and said with a charming smile, "Young Master Mu, today is your joyous day. Instead of going to marry the Azure Emperor, you've come to play the hero and save the beauty. How heartbroken the Azure Emperor will be if he finds out!"

"Oh... no, that's not right."

A mocking smile flashed across her beautiful eyes: "The Azure Emperor is currently undergoing tribulation, intending to break free from the shackles of heaven and earth. I'm afraid he has no intention of marrying you."

Wei Mengrou frowned slightly and said coldly, "Apart from those few high and mighty gods in the Southern Wilderness, who would be jealous of others' success?"

Herbert couldn't help but chuckle: "Although the Azure Emperor didn't have many enemies in the past, no one would want to see her ascend to immortality now, not only in the Southern Wilderness, but also in other places."

"In the past, she suppressed the first Demon Emperor, thus incurring the enmity of the demon realm. Do you think the demon realm will miss this opportunity? And what about the Western Regions? Will they let go of this chance to suppress her?"

"In the end, her ethereal beauty is nothing but an illusion. Does Young Master Mu really think that the first Holy Maiden of Yaochi is some kind of celestial maiden descended from the heavens to save all living beings? The despicable things she did behind the scenes may far exceed your imagination."

“What you said is not wrong, she is indeed not some kind of celestial maiden.”

Mu Zhian smiled.

The measuring ruler emitted a dazzling light and silently appeared behind him.

The mountains shook, and the spiritual energy surged violently!

"An Ancestral Artifact?!" Bahar's expression changed drastically, his lips turned deathly pale, and he sensed a power that did not belong to Mu Zhian clinging to him.

At this moment, Mu Zhian raised the measuring ruler and gently waved it forward.

Boom...

A surge of spiritual energy erupted like a tsunami, shaking the mountains and causing almost every cultivator present to tremble slightly, as if their very souls were shaking.

As the brilliance faded, the attack of the Measuring Ruler landed, and the Dharma Realm behind Herbert crumbled and shattered bit by bit like broken stones. He coughed up blood, and Bahar beside him also spat out a mouthful of blood, his body collapsing inch by inch.

The strike of the Measuring Ruler seemed to be empowered by thousands of runes, connected to the Heavenly Court, and descended from the sky like a divine punishment!

puff!

The two of them coughed up blood almost simultaneously, and the Dharma Realm behind them collapsed almost at the same time.

Herbert's face was full of shock. He was a fourth-grade Void Returner, which should have been far stronger than Mu Zhian. He had just used his strongest Dharma Body and Heaven, but it was shattered by that ancestral artifact in one blow.

"So, what does Yao Meng's situation have to do with you?"

Mu Zhian retracted the Measuring Ruler, and a woman dressed in black robes seemed to quietly appear behind him.

Who do you think you are?

With an indifferent expression, he stepped on Herbert's face under Herbert's terrified gaze.

The magnificent white robe was stained red with splattered blood.

"The only one in this world who can suppress them is me."

Who do you think you are?

He repeated it softly again.

……

……

[I was really enjoying writing when I noticed the table shaking violently. Before I could react, a few seconds later it dawned on me that it was an earthquake. I ran to the living room to go downstairs, but then I realized I was on the 11th floor… My body is still shaking a bit, but it probably wasn't here. I'm guessing it was an earthquake in Taiwan.]

[By the way, I've reached 12,000 words today... I never thought I could write so much. It's the 23rd, so please vote!]

Chapter 392 Mu Zhian, the Lord of Heaven Descends Upon the Nine Provinces! 6K

The sky grew increasingly gloomy, and the array seals in the Yaochi ancestral land shattered layer by layer as the trials of Heaven increased.

Whispers echoed through the Holy King City.

Most cultivators were unaware of what had happened, but among the cultivators present were many Void Returning Realm cultivators from various places, who could clearly feel the fluctuations in the Yaochi Ancestral Land.

An elder from an ancient clan looked up at the direction of their ancestral land, suddenly realized something, and sighed, "The Azure Emperor has truly played a grand game... If she were to ascend to immortality today, the future landscape of the Nine Provinces would likely be rewritten."

"This grand wedding is a ruse. The Azure Emperor's true purpose from the beginning was to ascend to immortality. The wedding was to cover up the truth, or rather, to make other powerful beings in the Dao Integration Realm realize this matter a step later."

"The Azure Emperor's appearance is truly peerless. If he were to truly ascend to immortality, he would likely leave a significant mark on the Nine Provinces in the future. However, it probably won't be that easy..."

The whispers in the Holy King City grew louder and louder, and the twenty-odd Void Returning cultivators present knew in their hearts that the Heavenly Tribulation of the Azure Emperor had probably only just begun.

The tribulation she faces is not only the oppressive power of the Heavenly Dao, but also the pressure from various forces lurking in the shadows.

Rumble...

Finally, at a certain moment, a giant hand, seemingly covering the heavens and the earth, attacked from afar, silently enveloping the Yaochi Ancestral Land, carrying an overwhelming killing intent!

"Azure Emperor, it's not too late to stop now."

A gentle, soothing voice followed, but it was filled with murderous intent.

When this voice rang out above the Holy King City, the hearts of many cultivators in the Eastern Continent sank.

Finally, someone in the Southern Wilderness couldn't hold back any longer.

boom!

The formation outside the ancestral land was subjected to violent bombardment, and the entire ground was trembling violently.

Even from a great distance, many cultivators felt as if their spiritual consciousness was about to shatter.
