Perfect Double Agent

"Is it because of Emperor Hong?" Mie Shi murmured, without any murderous intent, but rather very peaceful. "It seems that you haven't killed him yet, fellow Daoist."
"Traitor!" Emperor Yu sneered. Clearly, the other party had known about the existence of the World Destroyer for a long time and had been waiting for it to appear. In fact, the secret of this place may have already been leaked by Emperor Hong.
"We are all the same kind. Choosing to look up at the light in the darkness is a wise choice, and it is relatively easier. Why do you, fellow Daoist, have to fight us to the death for the sake of the people of the heavens?"
Emperors like Yu, Cang, and Hong all had hundreds of millions of subordinates and numerous offspring. They had all established supreme lineages and protected countless races. But in the end, everything was like fleeting clouds and dreams, and some of them were even destroyed by their own hands.
"The path of the Great Dao is solitary, yet we are eternal. There is no enmity that cannot be resolved, especially since you come from our lineage and are considered our successor." The Old Man of Annihilation nodded to himself, appearing quite benevolent, which was completely inconsistent with his reputation for destroying the world.
But Bai Ye shook his head. "We are not the same kind. I was born at the intersection of darkness and day. I have seen both the path of darkness and the path of light. Family and friendship may be dispensable to you, but for me, they are the driving force to move forward. Without them, even if I reach the end, I will go crazy."
The reason you failed to break through is not because your potential has reached its limit, but because you lack sufficient primordial matter.
"Primordial...matter?!"
The three emperors were all shocked, including the Old Man of Annihilation. Even though they were all quasi-immortal emperors, it was the first time they had ever heard of such a thing.
"You have already transformed into a dark body, equivalent to an immortal embryo. The reason you failed inexplicably at the last moment is because you followed the path of the dark origin. This path is dead. The only way to ascend is to merge with the primordial matter."
This is the result of Bai Ye's deduction. The corpse is at the level of an Immortal Emperor. As a later cultivator who absorbed the dark essence of the corpse, how could he possibly surpass the corpse? No matter how strong your talent is, you will be blocked here. Just like the plateau, there have always been only ten Dark Immortal Emperors. Without primordial matter, no one can go up. Only when the Dark Immortal Emperor is completely dead will one be selected from the Quasi-Immortal Emperors and given primordial matter, thus advancing.
If the four Dark Fs persist on their path to immortality, there is still a sliver of hope, but their current path is destined to remain unbroken.
This shocked the emperors, and a huge wave surged in the hearts of the three emperors. What you said makes so much sense, and we have no way to refute it.
The old man who destroyed the world, in particular, had a sharp glint in his eyes. He also felt that it was not that he lacked talent, but that there was a limitation that was restricting him. Just as he was about to ask more questions, the other party had already made a move and directly attacked the Azure Emperor.
"Senior, don't listen to his nonsense. He's trying to confuse you. We're here to gang up on you!"
The Azure Emperor roared, his eyes turning red, "Shouldn't you have attacked the Feather Emperor first?"
Chapter 647 Military Reincarnation
It is rare for a battle between cultivators to last for thousands of rounds. It is rare for a stalemate to occur. Even if one side is slightly weaker, it can often drag the other down with it.
However, this does not apply to battles between Quasi-Immortal Emperors.
"This has been going on for over a hundred years...when will it end..."
In the Boundary Sea, a king hid in a cave on an island, sitting cross-legged under a tree, trembling as he looked at the towering waves and dark storm outside, his face deathly pale.
It wasn't that they didn't want to leave, but the entire Boundary Sea was in turmoil, with storms of Emperor's Laws raging everywhere. Wherever they passed, royal capitals were instantly shattered, and only the natural islands in the sea could barely withstand them.
Once upon a time, the once lofty capital city had fallen to such a state, as insignificant as an ant, utterly vulnerable before the imperial way.
Just like now, with a thunderous roar, the distant sea was sliced open. The three-colored sword light cut through everything, its sharpness unparalleled. With a single strike, it evaporated the boundless seawater, annihilating the world. It was so terrifying that they could not even imagine it.
"Roar!"
A furious roar resounded, accompanied by a head being smashed away, and the entire sea was filled with destruction.
It was a head covered in countless scars, its hair gray and its face rotten. One of its eyes had been missing for many years, and even a bloody hole remained on its temple, permeated by the laws of time and space, and difficult to heal.
"White Emperor!"
The head roared, its powerful cry nearly annihilating the souls of several kings. Broken bodies, severed limbs, and vital essence came from afar, reforming their true forms and charging back once more.
"My Emperor..."
The kings sighed. They had seen this scene more than once. There was not just one emperor, but three. The one just now was the Azure Emperor, and there was also the Feather Emperor. The one who was beheaded by the White Emperor was the Hong Emperor. He lost his head but did not die. He also manifested in this century-long imperial war.
What terrified them most was that all the emperors were dark emperors, originating from the same source.
"That son of a bitch, it's folded up again!"
The Azure Emperor had just returned when his pupils suddenly contracted. The great battle deep inside was still raging. The Feather Emperor lay on the edge, a large hole blasted into his chest, his body covered in knife wounds, his face ashen. The Crimson Emperor's body was in even worse shape, dismembered into eight pieces, his arms and legs scattered on the ground, struggling to reassemble.
"boom!"
An ancient earthquake shook the earth; the energy deep within was terrifying. A figure formed a world-shaking hand seal with both hands, a head hanging from its waist, and nine dragons growing from its back. Each head was different, including true dragons, true phoenixes, and qilin heads. When it danced, it destroyed the heavens and the earth, engaging in a fierce battle with a world-destroying ferocious beast.
"Seniors have all revealed their true forms..." Emperor Cang was very surprised, as this was the first time he had ever seen it.
But what surprised him even more was what followed. The two monsters were too crazy, fighting each other to the death. Blood splattered everywhere when they collided. A single drop of blood could form a sea of blood, and a flying bone could tear through the chaos and create a world. This was because their power was too vast. Every strike was like splitting the heavens and earth.
The Old Man of Annihilation was also very surprised. This was not the other party's true cultivation level, but the other party had repeatedly improved to this level through the method, almost to complete perfection.
"What is primordial matter!" The Old Man of Annihilation raised his claws, which were dark and gleaming, like a demonic monument of annihilation, and came down to suppress and tear everything apart. He was eager to know, and could not delay any longer. The opponent's growth rate was too fast. In just a hundred years, the Feather Emperor was no match for him. The opponent was using them to hone himself.
"We'll talk about it after we win."
Bai Ye threw a punch, pushing forward with tremendous force, as if he were pushing through all the heavens and myriad worlds, striking the oncoming claw. In an instant, everything here was destroyed. The claw flashed with sharpness, like several heavenly blades, leaving wounds on the back of his hand. The power of the punch was domineering and unparalleled, causing the claw to spasm and his entire arm to lose all feeling.
Immediately afterwards, it was briefly restrained, its fist transformed into a sword, and it cleaved forward with force, attempting to cut it directly in two.
The Old Man of Annihilation was equally ferocious, opening his mouth to bite at Bai Ye's head. His mouth was like a bottomless abyss, capable of devouring everything. His fangs were sharp, even more terrifying than the cold light of an imperial weapon. Between his eyebrows, his third eye opened and closed, and a beam of death destroyed everything.
"When~"
A giant bell appeared before Bai Ye's brow. With a ripple of the bell, all the laws were cleansed. This bell was not formed from the laws of spacetime, but from the secret power of magic immunity. It blocked the beam of light and then instantly crashed into the nose of the Old Man of Annihilation. All the surrounding space was destroyed in that instant.
"boom!"
The Old Man of Annihilation was blasted back and suffered a great loss. His nose was broken and covered in blood. His head was dazed and filled with dizziness. The sword arm followed closely and passed by in an instant, taking away an arm.
Meanwhile, behind the two, eighteen dragon bodies danced wildly, tearing and entangled with each other, making it impossible for the Old Man of Destruction to retreat completely.
"kill!"
Bai Ye launched a powerful attack, his fist striking the chest of the World Destroyer. As the magic immunity secret power continued to bloom, the World Destroyer's expression changed instantly. This was a deadly technique that could give the opponent an absolute advantage.
In the first few years, he held an absolute advantage in cultivation and could break through defenses. However, at crucial moments, his opponents would use their trump cards to amplify their combat power and turn the tide. Now, after nearly a century of continuous battles, this ability has been rapidly improving and has now become a threat.
"Boom!"
The World Destroyer was blasted away again, his entire body convulsing, almost pierced through. All his magical power was becoming ineffective and was temporarily suppressed. He was confident that this process would not last long and he could break free.
But the next moment, another force appeared, a spacetime confinement and an inexplicable suppression, both acting on him.
"All is emptiness throughout eternity!"
Bai Ye arrived in an instant, striking down with a palm that dimmed the entire universe. The laws of time and space surged like a great river, and the dreamlike radiance engulfed the Old Man of Annihilation, impacting his body as if trying to reverse him back to a certain period of the past.
This is a seal constructed with the power of spacetime. In terms of destructive power, it is not particularly strong, but the effect it can produce in this brief moment is too terrifying, even making the Old Man of Destruction bewildered.
"Roar!!"
The Old Man of Annihilation went mad, attacking with all his might, claiming to be the first emperor since the creation of the world. The Old Man of Annihilation seemed kind, but in reality, he was even more arrogant than Emperor Yu.
However, his angry howl transformed into the howl of a young wolf, and even his physical body shrank, returning him to his childhood.
At this moment, the three emperors in the distance were all shocked. Looking at the wolf-like creature covered in blood and with several tails broken off, they could not hide their shock.
"Senior..." the Azure Emperor exclaimed in shock.
The Old Man of Destruction did not respond. When he realized his own state, his face turned bright red with shame and indignation. He had been defeated, and it had ended in this way.
But he was also unwilling, coldly looking at the tall body in front of him, which was covered with wounds. Several claw marks almost cut the opponent in half. Under the cover of flames, it continued to repair itself. However, the opponent's true strength was not as good as his, at most on par with the Feather Emperor. He was not defeated because he was inferior to others, but because he lost in terms of technique.
"Any last words?" Bai Ye exhaled a breath of turbid air, and crackling sounds came from his entire body. The old skin formed from the continuous battle was falling off, like pieces of necrotic, scale-like tree bark. Old bones were being forced out, and dull blood flowed from the wounds. Even the blood-stained, dry hair was falling off, and new black hair was growing back, each strand crystal clear, as if it were undergoing a rebirth.
This is terrifying. The other person's talent and potential seem bottomless, and there is a clear difference between them and people like them.
"You want to...kill me!"
The old man who destroyed the world remained unmoved and cold. At most, he would break free and regain his freedom in an hour. This method could seal him temporarily, but it would definitely not last long.
"Bai Ye, there are only a few of us who are emperors in the world. Do you really have to exterminate us all?" Cang Di said. The Old Man of Annihilation cannot die. Once he dies, none of them can stop this monster, and they will all be wiped out.
"Who said there isn't?"
Bai Ye raised his hand and flicked a decree, which landed in front of the Azure Emperor and the Feather Emperor. It was as black as ink, as if it were seeping blood, and its chilling and ominous aura was extremely strong.
"This is... the aura of the Emperor..." Both the Azure Emperor and the Feather Emperor frowned. This aura was too strong to be faked. There were other Emperors in the world besides them.
But what does it mean for the other side to bring this up at this time? Have they secretly allied with an unknown emperor to completely annihilate us?
"It must be from those ancient passages..." the Old Man of Annihilation said, his expression shifting between light and shadow. Clearly, he knew something and was not truly ignorant.
"That's where it is. The primordial matter was also mentioned by those people." Bai Ye looked down at the Old Man of Annihilation. He could indeed kill these people, but the dead Emperor was of little use to him.
It would be better to send these people to fight at places like the Soul River and the Heavenly Emperor's Burial Pit to draw fire, while he leads his men to occupy the Samsara.
"I know a little. Those passages are isolated from the world and are not so easy to find." The Old Man of Annihilation said coldly. Back then, because of the self-bound corpse deep inside, he wanted to find out its origin. He searched all the heavens and myriad worlds but found nothing. However, he did sense the existence of some ancient forces, but those forces had never appeared.
"What a coincidence, I happen to know that." Bai Ye smiled. He had a Dark Immortal Golden Coffin, which he could use to find reincarnation. If he could find reincarnation, the rest of himself would come out.
"You also need that primordial substance?" The old man of the world was very suspicious. He felt that this boy was leaving himself a way out. Becoming an Immortal Emperor was not difficult. Even he himself could not break through and was completely blocked. This boy seemed to be exceptionally talented, but in the end he would be just like him. He was just one step away from the goal, but he could never take that step.
"Do you need it?" Bai Ye did not answer, but glanced at the emperors, each of whom had a burning gaze.
If it were truly possible, who wouldn't want it? Even if it were fake, they would still try. Throughout history, they have tried far too many things. Unless they truly had no other choice, they would not have chosen to absorb the source of darkness.
"You want to cooperate!"
All the emperors understood, but the most nervous was Emperor Hong. Although he was so angry he wanted to go crazy, he really didn't want to be a mere accessory anymore. Using his head to boost combat power, how could that bastard do such a thing?
This is a case of circumstances being more powerful than people. If it were the other way around, let alone cooperation, Bai Ye would be devoured without even bones left.
"Shall we continue fighting?" Bai Ye asked, looking at the three emperors.
The Old Man of Annihilation was the first to shake his head. "Let's join forces to attack the ancient passage. We only want to become Immortal Emperors. Before that, there is no hatred that cannot be resolved."
"Then let's attack the ancient passage." The Azure Emperor also made his statement. It wasn't that he didn't want revenge, but that he couldn't win.
Emperor Yu remained silent, his face ashen and cold. He chose to acquiesce. An emperor may be defeated, but he will never submit to anyone. If the other party offers him a way out, he will accept it.
"In that case, let's restore it first, and then gather your army to attack the ancient passage."
Bai Ye left a sentence and turned to go deeper into the world. In front of the corpse was the ultimate chapter of the original true explanation, which was also a scripture that explained how to advance to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor. Although he was already a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, it did not mean that he could not comprehend it.
Everyone's path is different, and each path has its merits.
……
……
More than a thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye. The dark continent at the end of the boundary sea is sometimes filled with auspicious light and sometimes with endless destructive energy. Only recently has it become completely peaceful.
This was a long period of time, causing immense suffering to the creatures that had not completely retreated from the Boundary Sea.
"Is it over...? Could that Heavenly Emperor have fallen...?" The black island was almost shattered, connected by dark-colored branches. A group of people sat cross-legged under a tree in the cave and quietly let out a long sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Liu." All the kings bowed to the tree. Without the other party taking root here and forming the island, they might have died in the aftermath of the Imperial War long ago.
"No need to be polite..." the willow tree spoke, its voice filled with vicissitudes, before transforming into a hazy figure dressed in white.
