Chapter 266: Chapter 185: All Under Heaven

Once the Inner Realm is complete, the island will become a small, independent world.

In theory, the resulting cycle should be enough to cover Lu Changfeng and Qiankun Daoist’s consumption of Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy.

"In thirty years at most, we should be able to activate the Inner Realm," Qiankun Daoist said with conviction.

"That’s good to hear." Lu Changfeng nodded slowly.

For now, he decided not to tell Qiankun Daoist about the Domain-Breakers.

"Let’s go. Staring at this Demon Miasma Head always feels strange." Qiankun Daoist turned and flew away.

Lu Changfeng glanced at the Demon Miasma Head, its eyes closed, and followed right behind him.

...

「On the border between the Saint Country and Daliang Country.」

Amidst the thunder of war drums, the Martial Arts Army fought with wild abandon.

The sheer might of the Saint Country and Daliang Country shocked all the factions observing from the shadows.

The battle had reached a fever pitch.

The Daliang Sword Saint, Pei Yuanshi, finally made his appearance, wielding a fiery red Spirit Sword.

More than twenty years had passed. Driven by the pressure of Lu Changfeng looming over him like a great mountain, and with the vast resources Daliang had poured into him, Pei Yuanshi’s cultivation had reached the terrifying Celestial Spirit Body Realm.

The moment he appeared, the very heavens seemed to shift. He swept up most of the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy, causing the Spiritual Power of the Rebirth Realm cultivators on the battlefield to rapidly dissipate.

If a Celestial Spirit Body could cause such a phenomenon, the Realms above it—Spirit Condensation and Human King—would naturally trigger even more terrifying Heaven and Earth Changes.

From this, one could deduce that if the three great Human Kings were to truly awaken, the Profound Realm would inevitably collapse in short order.

"Saint Master, come out and face me!" the Daliang Sword Saint called out, his expression grave.

Despite having advanced to the Celestial Spirit Body Realm, Pei Yuanshi was still deeply wary of Lu Changfeng.

’He’d heard that Lu Changfeng had already reached the Rebirth Realm when he appeared years ago. After all this time, that man’s power must have undergone an even more terrifying transformation.’

Combined with his Saber Dao Law, Pei Yuanshi still considered him his most difficult opponent.

From the rear of the Saint Country’s army, a figure shot forward.

"Why would my Imperial Father need to act personally to deal with you?"

The newcomer was none other than the Saint Country’s Saint Emperor, son of the Saint Master, Saint Hong, clad in a black Dragon Robe!

After Saint Hong established himself as the Saint Emperor, he granted Lu Changfeng the title of Supreme Emperor. Thus, it was perfectly natural for him to address Lu Changfeng as "Imperial Father."

"You alone? You’re not worthy. Tell your father to show himself." Pei Yuanshi acknowledged Lu Changfeng’s strength, but he completely disregarded this upstart Saint Emperor.

The twenty-three-year-old Saint Hong now bore an eighty percent resemblance to Lu Changfeng’s true appearance. However, under the influence of the Ancient Chaos Demon Dragon Bloodline, his aura was tyrannical, piercing, and aloof.

Saint Hong’s current status was as follows.

Name: Saint Hong

Root Bone: Hero (25%)

Talents: Supreme Talent [Demon God Body Level 1], High-Grade Talent [Saber Demon], High-Grade Talent [Flying Swallow], High-Grade Talent [Array Sect]

Bloodline Talent: [Ancient Chaos Demon Dragon (45%)]

Saint Hong had activated the Heroic Root Bone on his own.

As for his Bloodline Talent, after Saint Hong advanced to the Rebirth Realm, Lu Changfeng had personally intervened, using the system interface to raise it directly to 45%.

The current Saint Hong truly possessed the power to contend with Pei Yuanshi.

"Try me first before you run your mouth, old man!"

Saint Hong immediately activated his [Ancient Chaos Demon Dragon] bloodline, entering its first stage.

Back then, when Wei He was only in the Blood Forging Realm, activating the first stage of the [Ancient Chaos Demon Dragon] bloodline allowed him to fight to a draw against Floral Fiend, a Middle-Tier Demon Soldier whose strength was equivalent to the True Spirit Body Realm.

Now that Saint Hong, at the Rebirth Realm’s Primordial Spirit Body stage, was activating it, he was obviously far stronger and could sustain it for a prolonged period.

Saint Hong’s body swelled, and glistening Dragon Scales materialized across his skin. His entire form was enveloped in a dangerous, gray aura of Chaos.

In all these years, this was the first time Saint Hong had revealed his [Ancient Chaos Demon Dragon] bloodline in public.

"So it’s true. This bloodline is from your Saint Demon Sect." Pei Yuanshi’s brow furrowed.

Over the past few years, Saint Hong hadn’t acted personally, but he had commanded the Demon Dragon Guard to carry out many tasks.

Pei Yuanshi was naturally aware of this powerful Demon Fiend Bloodline. It appeared to be one of the legendary Ancient Level Demon Fiend Bloodlines.

"Heh heh, now you see the gap between you and my Imperial Father, don’t you?"

Saint Hong’s figure shot forward. With his Ancient Bloodline activated and stacked with the Supreme Talent [Demon God Body], the power and speed of his physical form were simply terrifying. He had already reached the speed of sound!

Pei Yuanshi’s expression finally turned solemn.

Wielding his red Spirit Sword, he unleashed slashes of Sword Energy toward Saint Hong.

Saint Hong attempted to weave through the Sword Energy, but Pei Yuanshi’s attacks were not to be underestimated. They successfully intercepted his advance.

The Sword Energy struck Saint Hong, causing him some discomfort. He inwardly revised his assessment of this man his father had once defeated.

’Is my speed still not enough?’

"Then, second stage!"

Saint Hong’s form became more streamlined, the Dragon Scales on his body gleamed with a brighter luster, and the Chaos Energy surrounding him expanded!

In this stage, activating three percent of the Ancient Chaos Demon Dragon bloodline would inflict minor damage on a cultivator at the Primordial Spirit Body Realm.

However, Saint Hong also possessed the [Demon God Body]. Therefore, even though he was at the Primordial Spirit Body Realm, he could still maintain the second stage for an extended period.

In his second stage, Saint Hong’s power and speed surged once more. His sheer movement speed now surpassed the speed of sound.

Pei Yuanshi’s slashes of Sword Energy could no longer keep up with Saint Hong’s movements!

’He’s nothing but a humanoid monster!’ Pei Yuanshi lamented inwardly.

Wielding his red Spirit Sword, Pei Yuanshi activated his Ultimate Technique without hesitation.

"True Unrivaled Spiritual Sword!"

The red Spirit Sword instantly transformed into a colossal blade that blotted out the sky! It then locked onto Saint Hong and slashed down.

The onlookers below were utterly dumbfounded, scrambling to retreat.
