I only want to win over the fairy.

Who else!

Who else?!

At this moment, the one who is most excited is undoubtedly Qiu Yuelian.

Watching Bai Yi rampage through the land, each sword strike taking down a supreme being, she was truly thrilled. After all, Bai Yi's ability to transform into the White Emperor and wreak havoc was at least half due to her own efforts, since she was the one who gave Bai Yi the [White Emperor - Pacifying the Forbidden Zone] card.

Bai Yi and I teamed up and went on a rampage, killing a total of 27 Supreme Beings.

Invincible!

Absolutely invincible!

What kind of supreme ruler is he? He's nothing but a nobody, not even worth a finger of Bai Yi's!

After the initial excitement, Qiu Yuelian felt only gratitude and emotion. When she discovered that Bai Yi had already started the war, she hurriedly sent her simulated self back to the Human Emperor's Palace, only to find that all the familiar people were there.

You rushed back to the Human Emperor's Palace and met with your master and family. You asked them what had happened to cause the palace to become like this, but they only smiled and remained silent, saying that the real Human Emperor had stopped everything, without mentioning that they had died once.

Bai Yi is a person who values ​​promises very much; he will almost always keep his promises.

It's just a matter of timing.

When Bai Yi made a deal with Qiu Yuelian, he promised to revive the people of the Human Emperor Palace. Qiu Yuelian originally thought that this would take at least several decades, or even several hundred or several thousand years, but she did not expect that Bai Yi would do it immediately.

The implications behind this are self-evident.

On the eve of the decisive battle against the great enemy, Qiu Yuelian specially expended a lot of power and resources to revive people. Having spent a long time with Bai Yi and knowing him quite well, there was only one explanation she could give—he didn't want me to return to the Human Emperor's Palace and find my home in ruins with many dead or injured relatives.

Perhaps this might seem narcissistic, but Qiu Yuelian believes that this was Bai Yi's true thought at the time.

Because Bai Yi is such a sensitive, kind, and gentle person. Towards friends, he is like a spring breeze, making people feel comfortable, while towards enemies, he is like a sharp, cold wind, biting and full of danger.

He values ​​our promise very much; he must have me in his heart!

Thinking of this, she couldn't contain her restless heart and was eager to find Bai Yi so that she could take this opportunity to express her innermost thoughts.

"call...."

After taking a few deep breaths to calm her excited heart, she immediately went out. Since she had been to Tianxuan Peak many times in the simulated world and had even lived there for a considerable period of time, she was quite familiar with the place, especially the room where Bai Yi lived.

Excited, she walked briskly towards her destination, like a young girl experiencing the stirrings of first love.

However, reality is always full of surprises.

When she knocked on Bai Yi's door, no one answered. This discovery made her immediately look towards the location of the Emperor's Palace.

Did I miss it again...?

It's okay. No matter how many times we miss each other, I will choose to pursue you relentlessly until we can truly intersect on the path you are on.

Chapter 190 I'm sleeping everywhere

As we all know, seals are meant to be broken.

There are two kinds of seals in this world: one that has not been broken and one that has been broken.

Even if the seal is constructed using the Nine Cauldrons, which are based on the fortune of the human race, it is not impossible for it to be broken. Therefore, Bai Yi had to make another preparation from the beginning, which was the Watcher Project.

The guardians who gaze into the abyss bear the responsibility of watching over the source of danger, preventing problems before they arise, and protecting the world.

Those who can shoulder such a great responsibility must be people of sound character and possess a strong will to care for humanity, the world, and all of humanity.

Since there are no suitable people available right now, Bai Yi can only let Gui Ming, who is strong enough, fill in for me first. He will make Gui Ming work like a beast of burden, plowing and shoveling dirt for me until he seals up the rift leading to the outer realm under Gui Ming's sky.

Of course, Bai Yi couldn't leave everything to Gui Ming.

Entrusting such an important matter entirely to one person, especially when that person is not entirely trustworthy, is a rather foolish act. Therefore, Bai Yi also prepared another group of people to guard the nine forbidden zones of life and to supervise Gui Ming to do his job properly.

As for who this person is, Bai Yi can only say that it's both far away and right in front of him.

Yes, the most suitable people for this position right now are none other than the people of the Human Emperor Palace and Xuanyuan Meng.

Xuanyuan Meng still has many important things to do, so it's impossible for her to guard the place forever. Therefore, entrusting this important task to the Human Emperor Palace is the most appropriate course of action, since the Human Emperor Palace's duty is to protect the Nine Provinces and the human race.

Using the corpses of several supreme beings as materials, and combining them with your own power of reincarnation, you firmly sealed off Guimingtian and immediately blocked the rift leading to the outer realms, preventing any being from using this passage as an entrance or exit to freely enter or leave the world.

After sealing this place, you set up a palace here to guard it and put Guiming, who had been modified by Xuanyuan Meng, in charge of guarding it. Then you told the Human Emperor Palace about the importance of guarding the Nine Cauldrons and supervising Guiming. As expected, nearly 60% of the high-level cultivators in the Human Emperor Palace devoted themselves to this matter.

[You taught Guiming the art of patching holes and filling crevices, specifically tasking him with sealing the cracks in Guiming Heaven. During this time, you attempted to transfer the price you paid to Guiming, but you discovered that the transfer method was ineffective, and the backlash from reincarnation remained on you.]

"The situation in the world is dire, and I cannot completely relax yet. I will remain in charge for a while, and once everything stabilizes, I will leave to fight alongside you for the rise of the Nine Provinces. I hope that at that time, you will still need someone like me who is no longer of much use." As a part of the Heavenly Dao and the ruler of Guiming, Xuanyuan Meng naturally had to stabilize the situation first.

[At the moment of parting, Xuanyuan Meng cleared the backlash from your body, transferring that backlash to herself. She also used the vast amount of heaven and earth power she had collected during this time due to the death of the Supreme Being to communicate with the Heavenly Dao, bestowing upon you a blessing in the name of the Heavenly Dao: "Your path ahead will be smooth sailing, and no enemy can hinder your progress. When you resolve to change everything, the world will change according to your will."]

It's highly unlikely that the people in the Emperor's Palace alone could guard such an important and dangerous place, especially in the early stages.

Now that the project has just been established, those supreme beings in the forbidden zones and extraterrestrial demons will surely try every means to break through it, and may even try to seduce or use methods left outside the region. Xuan Yuanmeng is not at ease entrusting such an important task to Gui Ming alone.

Rather, the only person she could entrust this matter to was Bai Yi.

Bai Yi has more important things to do, and his true strength is far from being able to manage all of this, so it is undoubtedly most appropriate for him to temporarily guard this important position.

Moreover, quite a few Supreme Beings of the Forbidden Zones died in this battle. She had already completed more than half of the necessary conditions for seizing the Heavenly Dao Authority and controlling it in human form. However, she wanted to give up her plan, so she took this opportunity to add the Heavenly Dao Blessing to Bai Yi with the large amount of Heaven and Earth Power she had finally obtained.

Perhaps my blessing won't have much effect on him, but at least... it's a token of my goodwill.

You chose to personally oversee the project, entrusting Bai Yi with more freedom to develop his own career. You believe that leaving Bai Yi outside will allow him to perform better than you would.

Although you have gathered more than half of the elements to become the Heavenly Dao, you do not intend to continue.

"One of the necessary conditions for wielding the authority of the Heavenly Dao is that I myself am the Heavenly Dao, and the power I wield is the authority of the Heavenly Dao, which will ultimately become my power."

"The second necessary condition is a trustworthy friend. He must be someone who is righteous, compassionate, and devoted to the world, someone who would sacrifice everything, including his own life, for the future of the world. Bai Yi's existence is my anchor, the key to my resistance against the assimilation of all things in the universe, and also my guarantee. As long as he lives, no matter how many times I die, my destined death will stay away from me."

"The third necessary condition is the souls of the nine Supreme Beings. When the Supreme Beings die, they return the power of heaven and earth they possessed to the world. Nine is the ultimate number, and the souls of the nine Supreme Beings will be the key for me to manipulate the power of heaven and earth. Once I obtain them, I will also gain immense power, perhaps even a slight influence over the Heavenly Dao."

"The fourth necessary condition is the power of destiny that currently governs heaven and earth; the destiny of a race will support me to a completely new realm."

The fifth necessary condition is [enlightenment]. Without enlightenment, one should not embark on the path of immortality, much less the path of heaven. I must have the enlightenment to abandon my body, my soul, and everything else to change this corrupt world.

This is the method that Xuanyuan Meng derived by combining Bai Yi's memories with the calculations of the Heavenly Dao, enabling him to control the authority of the Heavenly Dao with human consciousness and body and free thinking.

It seems simple, but it is incredibly difficult.

Because the power of human destiny belongs to the human race of the Nine Provinces, if she wanted to take it, she would have to get past Bai Yi, who possessed the Human Emperor Sword. She had bypassed Bai Yi to do this in a simulation, and although she eventually achieved her goal, it had many flaws.

Now that Bai Yi has used the power of human destiny to create the Nine Cauldrons to suppress the forbidden zone of life, how could he possibly take away the power of human destiny and render the Nine Cauldrons that protect the world ineffective?

Instead of trying to seize the power of Heaven, it would be better to be more direct and kill Heaven, replacing it with someone willing to do the work.

If Heaven knew what she was thinking, I wonder if it would be so angry that it would generate a new kind of wisdom.

Killing oneself is a unique feature of the cultivation world, and one that must be experienced.

A series of changes has stirred up a new storm across the world. An unknown emperor has annihilated a forbidden zone of life with absolute power, and the other nine forbidden zones of life dare not utter a word of dissatisfaction. This is undoubtedly a great change unprecedented in ten thousand years.

[Regarding this unknown emperor, rumors spread like wildfire throughout the Nine Provinces and even beyond. Some said that this emperor was the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan of the past, who had not actually died but was merely in a temporary slumber, requiring someone to give him 50 spirit stones to help him revive. Others claimed that this emperor was a legendary immortal descended from the celestial realm to uphold justice and save the world from suffering...]

You didn't pay attention to these rumors circulating outside because you simply didn't have the time to care; you were utterly exhausted.

After the power from the River of Time dissipated, you felt utterly exhausted. Having intended to resolve everything within seven days, you dealt with numerous troublesome matters, only to find that less than a minute remained. In this final moment, you entrusted all your power to the cycle of reincarnation, intending to exploit a bug. This way, you could later use the power you left behind in the cycle as a trump card to give those who wanted to take advantage of your illness a huge surprise. However, the surprise of the power disappearing manifested first in you. You initially thought the loss of the power from the River of Time would only leave you powerless for a short time, but the moment the power vanished, you felt utterly exhausted. Your body and will reached their limits, and you collapsed to the ground, falling into a deep sleep.

After seven consecutive days of hard work, you finally succumbed to the exhaustion and strain of such prolonged exertion, and drifted into a deep, healthy sleep, like that of a baby.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

The last time Bai Yi obtained power from the River of Time, the consumption was not particularly large. He simply killed the elite monster who had been knocked down from the Great Emperor realm with a casual slap, and then used his own power to modify Tianxuan Peak, leaving behind treasures like the Reincarnation Hot Spring, which contain powerful reincarnation power and are comparable to secret realms.

That time, when the power from the river of time dissipated from him, much of it remained, and he hadn't expended much energy that time.

This time was different. This time, Bai Yi squeezed this power to the extreme. First, he refined the Nine Cauldrons and resurrected the dead in the Human Emperor Palace. Later, he fought against the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone of Life without regard for consumption. He even used the hugely energy-consuming move of the Fourfold War God. The consumption and the burden on his body and mind were ridiculously large.

Not to mention that after doing all this, he did not rest, but instead squeezed the power he had temporarily acquired to the maximum extent, sealing Guimingtian, refining several supreme corpses, and finally transferring all his power into reincarnation to plan for the future. This behavior was almost like splitting a portion of reincarnation power into ten pieces for use.

The more ruthlessly you exploit someone, the more severe the backlash will be afterwards.

You must know that it is your own body that receives the power of the river of time. To exploit this power is to exploit your own body. If you use and exploit yourself so frantically, how can you be safe and sound when this power disappears?

Hopefully, the backlash won't be too severe.

Bai Yi was not worried at all about whether he would encounter danger after falling into a coma, because even if he was asleep, the many imperial weapons around him were not asleep.

With the White Emperor Sword, the Human Emperor Sword, the Crimson Sky Sword, and the Tai Xuan Heavenly Furnace, these four imperial weapons protect him. Even a supreme being would have to think twice before trying to kill him.

Now that the Supreme Being is sealed away, the extraterrestrial demons cannot invade. In this world, almost no one can kill themselves while protected by the four Imperial Weapons.

[You were rescued by the Danxia Sect near your landing site. The various imperial auras you carried, along with the residual, overwhelming power of reincarnation, led the elders and sect leader of the Danxia Sect to believe you were a top-tier expert who had simply collapsed near their sect for some reason.]

[Because the residual aura of reincarnation power and imperial divine charm on your body is too strong, outsiders cannot discern your cultivation level at all. The Danxia Sect is extremely delighted by your arrival, as they are about to go to war with another sect. Even if you are unwilling to help them, just having you stay here is a reassurance to them.]

[Unable to bear seeing sects of the same human race kill each other over a meaningless treasure, you cleverly intervened, using your charm, eloquence, and mysterious background to end a battle between sects.]

Your charm and the strength you have displayed have captivated many female disciples from both sects. They tried to use their allure to keep you here, but you rejected them all.

When you recovered somewhat and offered your resignation, they bid you a reluctant farewell. Before parting, they presented you with the extremely rare Tian Shan Snow Lotus Pill, the very thing that had sparked the two wars.

The Tian Shan Snow Lotus Dan is indeed quite rare.

Bai Yi had also heard of this kind of elixir. It was made from the extremely rare snow lotus that grows in the eastern part of Tianshan Mountain. After taking it, it could clear the mind and detoxify, unblock the meridians, and enhance physical fitness.

The medicine is good, but it is too rare. However, this kind of pill is also very beneficial to Bai Yi, so he did not refuse it. After all, it is someone else's good intention.

Moreover, if this thing continues to remain there, it will cause dissatisfaction in whichever sect it ends up in, and may even attract the covetousness of other sects. It is better to deal with this rare thing yourself.

Of course, in return, I will also give them some small gifts.

Some small gifts taken from the royal palace treasury.

After thanking the people of Danxia Sect, you embarked on your journey home alone. You originally intended to use the White Emperor Sword to break through space and return directly, but your body was severely exhausted, and the rest you had received over the past few days had not alleviated your fatigue. Therefore, the spatial portal you opened led you to a destination that was significantly off-center from Tianxuan Peak.

Upon arriving at your destination, you observe the bustling facilities and abundant spiritual energy around you, surmising that you have entered a major land. However, before you can pay closer attention to the details, your heavy eyelids close again, and you collapse to the ground, falling asleep wherever you are.

Bai Yi realized that the backlash and price he would pay for using the power from the River of Time was that he would have to sleep anywhere, anytime.

Actually, Bai Yi didn't care about sleeping. The main thing was that he should sleep at home. It was unseemly to sleep everywhere on other people's turf. Although he had the protection of an imperial weapon and wasn't worried about encountering enemies, what if he did?

He didn't want to make a confident promise that something would never happen, only to have it happen to him in the end. It was best to avoid such a slap in the face.

However... the price of sleeping everywhere doesn't seem unacceptable.

Compared to the damage to a part of the body or the hidden dangers left behind, the cost of simply overexerting one's strength, being unable to keep up with physical and mental demands, and constantly being in a state of extreme fatigue, requiring constant sleep, is infinitely better.

At least the latter can be dealt with as if nothing happened once they recover their energy, while the former requires an unknown amount of effort and sacrifice to resolve.
