The tremors of Neptune gradually subsided, and Bai Cinan knew that the powerful beings within were ready to emerge from seclusion.

But it wasn't the right time yet—or rather, his sworn brother didn't intend to show up until that guy arrived.

"Do as you please."

Reading his thoughts, even Bai Cinan felt a sense of helplessness. His sworn brother's insistence remained unchanged even after 300,000 years.

Coincidentally, Shiro Cinan did not intend to start a war right now. He landed on Neptune, a barren planet devoid of any life, where only endless darkness remained, and stayed there.

He needed to calm himself down, to think, to trace back, and to solidify Bai Cinan's sense of self.

From the beginning of that hatred.

19. The Past 300,000 Years Ago

In 2018, in a similar era that is incredibly distant from today, the Earth was divided and ruled by two emperors.

The former Heavenly Kingdom territory was ruled by Emperor Bai Cinan, while the former Blue Dream land was ruled by the Northern Emperor Darkness.

With the Blue Dream Creation Project turning the world upside down and humanity nearly wiped out, the surviving humans had no choice but to submit to the two emperors and accept their rule and protection.

But thankfully, they've made a good mess of the world.

Compared to the former magnetic field of the "Wise King" hell, darkness and the second son possess an incomparably astonishing power...

Although not as grand as hell, their absolute power is enough to make the world a better place.

The world, which had been severely polluted by Lanmeng, was partially restored under their power... The reason they didn't completely cure them was because they needed to maintain the "majesty" of their rule.

Only those who are willing to accept their rule and who are absolutely forbidden from raising any objections may live in the realms they have purified...

As for those who are not chosen and do not accept rule, their fate is to live in the wild where the magnetic field is heavily polluted.

Despite maintaining such authoritarian power, the two emperors treated the people under their rule very well. Their power and technology... gave their people a better life than before the disaster.

Of course, this is on the premise of submitting to them, obeying the rules, and not resisting.

Heaven and hell—that's their basic method for maintaining their ruling structure: making the good incredibly good and the bad incredibly bad.

Even so, there are still those who resist.

Most of them were former members of the Kingdom of Heaven, loyal to the former Hell and the First Man... and had no liking for the Second Man and the Darkness who had usurped power.

However, such things are not qualified to be called the "enemies" of the second son and darkness.

They even allowed these clowns to exist, using their futile resistance and extremely cruel consequences to warn their people how foolish it was to defy the emperor!

And so they ruled the world for eighteen years.

Over the course of those eighteen years, their children grew up. The second son raised his elder brother's eldest son, Bai Jingtian, and his second son, Bai Baobao, while An Hei raised Qiu Tian's son, Qian Jun.

The second son did not hide his astonishing past, and at the same time told him that his deceased elder brother was the greatest person in the world.

Although they were enemies, and although they had reasons for hatred and fighting, the second son absolutely respected the first son. He recorded in its entirety how the first son defeated the world-destroying sea god of Lanmeng and saved the world.

He even left behind the story of his younger brother, Wu Nan, whom he never wanted to see again, the one who had "cuckolded" him.

The second son told Jingtian that even though he wasn't his biological son, he considered him his heir. Both he and his elder brother absolutely loved Jingtian!

Jingtian, though extremely distressed by this identity, did not hate his biological father because of it.

In this world where Lan Tongtong had not had a relationship with Shou Nan and had not yet transformed into the Mad Woman, Jing Tian had no reason to hate Shou Nan.

He respected the second son, and he also respected the first son.

Qianjun, on the other hand, has a somewhat special situation.

Raised in darkness, Qianjun's relationship with his adoptive father was far from harmonious. This was because darkness both loved and hated Qianjun.

Perhaps it's because of his bloodline; he is both the son of autumn and the son of that fallen, white-haired man!

Darkness suppressed his terrible emotions, but he still demanded great things of Qianjun—this could be seen as both an expectation and cultivation of him, or perhaps an unspeakable emotional outburst.

As a form of education, darkness imparted all that it had learned and comprehended about the Asura path!

At the same time, his demands on the army were undeniably harsh.

That was an education that even someone like Zhen, the foster mother of a thousand soldiers, would find excessively dark.

This made Qianjun extremely rebellious. Despite bearing the name of the emperor's son, he chose to leave the Northern Empire after reaching adulthood and wander in the wilderness.

And it was from here that the prelude to everything began.

The second son and the darkness never cared about the remnants of Heaven and Blue Dream... because, in front of two powerful beings who were infinitely close to the ultimate realm, what remnants could threaten them?

Have.

At that time, someone appeared who successfully injured and nearly defeated the two emperors.

He was not a strong person, nor did he possess any magnetic field power; all he had was an extremely powerful mind.

He was loyal to Heaven, loyal to the First Man, and even more loyal to Hell! And when all of this was destroyed before him, he felt utter hatred!

He hated the darkness that had taken away all the second sons from him, and he also hated the darkness that had taken away thousands of troops from him. This world, which had no one worthy of his loyalty, made Skynet extremely disgusted!

Especially when the darkness nearly killed Skynet, and Skynet had to upload most of its body to the machine in order to survive.

The combination of cold logic and extreme hatred has rendered Skynet incapable of any empathy or understanding.

Skynet seeks revenge on this world and to reclaim the Kingdom of Heaven belonging to the ruler of Hell!

He started with a thousand soldiers, drawing upon his twenty years of meticulous research…

The nanotechnology created by combining the ultimate technology of the Dreamer and his magnetic field technology used a large number of special nanoviruses to control and infect thousands of troops!

He released Qianjun back into the darkness, and then gradually took control of Bai Baobao and Bai Jingtian... until the second son realized something was wrong, Tianwang suddenly launched an attack!

With the power of the Hell Ascension Device, he had raised Bai Qianjun's strength to a level of 970,000 horsepower, and subsequently increased the strength of Jingtian and Baobao. Of course, these three descendants of the Bai family were still no match for the Second Son and the Darkness.

But Skynet never intended to confront them head-on.

Taking advantage of the fact that the second son and the darkness were hesitant to act, he ultimately caused the three descendants of the Bai family to start killing each other, while simultaneously sending out a large number of hidden machine Yafei... placing the people of the area ruled by the second son and the darkness on the scales of justice!

Undoubtedly, they chose their own children and abandoned their own people.

The net of heaven showed no mercy, slaughtering all those who had betrayed the rulers of hell.

After a global purge that left less than 30% of the total population, and after twenty years of recuperation, the majority of them were slaughtered again!

This was just the beginning of Skynet's revenge plan.

When the second son and the darkness rescued their child and were about to settle scores with Skynet, he activated his backup plan!

The nanovirus implanted in Bai Qianjun's body contains a magnetic field virus sample that was secretly implanted by Tianwang and obtained from the Blue Dream Master virus.

SkyNet wasn't particularly skilled in biotechnology, and he knew that such a primitive sample would have little effect on Shiro Cinan, who had comprehended the darkness of the Asura Path and possessed extremely high power.

So he combined his own nano-regeneration realm, fused the virus with nanomachines, and while Bai Cinan and the darkness were healing their children, he transmitted the virus into their brains through their power!

This power cannot stop them from using their power, but it can interfere with their brains and freeze their thoughts.

Perhaps for top experts, that would only mean a one percent decrease in reaction speed and a partial drop in their own strength, but for Skynet, that would be enough.

He knew that even weakened, Bai Cinan and Dark Killer wouldn't need to give him a single glance, and the second part of Skynet's revenge plan would immediately begin.

As the power of the nanovirus weakened the second son and the darkness, he unleashed his secret weapon, which he had been preparing for twenty years.

Ultimate Yafei, and King Kong Yafei!

The Yafei created by the Skynet can now push pure magnetic field power to a level of 970,000 horsepower...

However, without the mindset and ideas of a strong person, not only will one's strength be unable to advance, but one will also be vulnerable in the face of a truly strong person!

The Ultimate Monk is different—having been crippled by the Second Son, he possesses incredibly formidable martial arts skills and a strong mindset, and his ultimate realm is terrifyingly high!

After promising Wu Nan that he could save King Kong and Ultimate Monk, Skynet has been trying to restore them.

However, the damage caused by Bai Cinan and Lan Meng was too severe, and... Skynet had more practical needs.

He perfectly combined the minds of the Ultimate Monk and King Kong with Ya Fei...

He forcibly acquired two horses: the Ultimate Yafei with 990,000 horsepower and the Vajra Yafei with 980,000 horsepower!

With such power, Skynet is confident in its ability to crush either Darkness or the Second Man.

However, if the two cooperate, Skynet will have to resort to some underhanded tactics.

Fortunately, he has enough wisdom to use, so he has nothing to lack.

After Darkness and the Second Son are infected with the virus, the two Asian Flies will be able to maintain a stalemate with them.

But Skynet still knew that he was no match for those two lunatics!

Perhaps twenty years of peace and warmth have dulled Bai Cinan's sharpness too much... but once a real war breaks out, everything is still uncertain.

The second son, who has obtained the Heavenly Dao Primordial Spirit, is very likely to achieve some breakthroughs in the battle.

However, the forces he possesses are too risky to kill both of them!

While using this trap, Skynet also took another thing to the extreme!

He found autumn, and he captured the truth!

Darkness did try to hide them before the war, but unfortunately the nanomachines they spread were already part of Skynet.

His extraordinary "nano rebirth realm" allows him to control the nanobugs that emerge from each of his bodies, which exist as carriers of his thoughts.

The dark secrets were laid bare to him, and when the net caught Autumn and True—he knew victory was in his grasp!

The former is the first man's wife, and his darkest love.

The latter is the foster mother of Qianjun, who is obsessed with darkness.

He used the latter to threaten Qianjun to deal with delaying Bai Baobao and Bai Jingtian, while he used the former to threaten the darkness!

The effect was very good. For Qianjun, compared to the twenty years that plants usually exist in cultivation jars, Zhencai, who raised him, was more like his mother.

Skynet's actions were utterly despicable, but for the sake of truth, Qianjun had no choice but to turn against his own brothers!

As for the three brothers who have an extremely good relationship, even if Jingtian and Baobao could harden their hearts, they would definitely not be able to kill Bai Qianjun, who has been strengthened by Tianwang and specializes in the Asura Path, in a short time!

On the other side, however, was Skynet's main event.

He told the darkness that he had injected the life-corrupting nanovirus into Autumn's body.

Now, he has to hurry and kill Shiro Cinan!

Killing Tianwang won't change anything. He only has ten minutes. If he can't deal with Bai Cinan, he'll just have to wait for Qiu Tian's tragic death!

Even if they defeat Shiro and absorb the darkness of the nanovirus from Aki's body, it won't pose a significant threat.

Even if he escapes now, Skynet will still be two against one. With Ultimate Yafei and King Kong Yafei, plus the nanovirus that interferes with Bai Cinan, he is confident that he can suppress this biggest threat in his heart!

No matter the choice, no matter the plan, Skynet will be the winner, the absolute winner!

Skynet's plan is utterly shameless and despicable, but—it's absolutely effective!

For the darkness whose heart is 99% occupied by autumn, fighting the second son is the only option.

Come here, second son, let me kill you!

20. The weak second son

"Brother, do you still remember the slash you gave me? Doomsday Shock, what a fierce and ruthless killing move!"

The second son opened his eyes and, in the void of nothingness and darkness, whispered...

“You really are capable of anything for autumn, even resorting to sneak attacks on me—but you did the right thing, and I have never blamed you.”

Yes, the second son never blamed the darkness, even when it suddenly attacked him from behind, even when it and that damned Tianwang teamed up to bring down Bai Cinan.

Because this is how the two brothers get along—Shiro and Darkness had already said this to each other from the day they became sworn brothers.

If they get too bored, or if it becomes absolutely necessary, the two brothers will engage in a life-or-death battle without any scruples.

No longer for any bullshit reason, nor for any other pursuit, simply because I want to fight.

To live towards death, or to die for it—if this happened to these two extremely eccentric lunatics when they were utterly bored, it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing. It would not only alleviate their boredom but also allow the demons within them to be unleashed.

At least that way, they wouldn't let their madness hurt other people they care about.

There was no reaction in the boundless darkness, for the darkness certainly felt no remorse.

He will definitely deliver that blow on that day.
