"Starting today, I will restore the ancient order... This continent shall have only one ruler...""T-This..."Yao Chen smirked coldly as he looked at the ancestors, who dared not meet his eyes yet offered no objections."I-Impossible... Who is fit to rule over us?!" the Northern Overlord expressed his protest."Do you know who made the decision back then regarding the division of the five overlords?" Yao Chen stated nonchalantly, before continuing, "Choosing not to kill you is already a generous choice on my part... Do you truly think you still hold the right to bargain with me?""R-Rather than becoming someone else's dog... I..."WUUUUUUUSH!PLUNGE!Without wasting time on debate, Yao Chen—knowing the choice of the Northern Overlord—instantly fired a sharp surge of Qi energy, killing him in a split second."Does anyone else have an objection?"The remaining three former overlords exchanged brief glances, but immediately shook their heads."However, who will become the ruler?""The We

"What's so great about them? If it's stolen, then it's stolen... We can't even trace their footsteps, so how am I supposed to find it? And as for that last matter, my daughter is now an unrivaled cultivator... What's so special about those heavenly cultivators anyway?"The old man guarding the Martial Arts Pagoda merely shook his head. He knew all too well just how terrifying the power of the heavenly cultivators was. Even he, who possessed the cultivation of an Immortal God—which he intentionally concealed from everyone—felt a sense of dread.'These people truly have no idea how vast the heavens really are.'*Inside the Soul World.The merger of body and soul had been completed.The formation circle vibrated gently, erupting in a burst of light right in the middle of the spectacle witnessed by the inhabitants of the Soul World."L-look, legs are forming..." Huang Nei exclaimed in shock."Th-this..."WOOOOOOSH!A powerful dragon aura surged forth as well. Seeing this, Yao Chen did no

Wuuuuush!After passing through the entrance to the Fire Dragon Continent, Yao Chen began his descent from the seventh heaven, landing directly in a town settlement where the circulating Qi energy was remarkably dense.His eyes caught sight of several young men wearing the identifying robes of a sect, chatting casually among themselves."Hahaha! Did they really think all the forces in the Fire Dragon Continent would just hand over the Continent-Swallowing Python Clan's land, a place steeped in ancient secrets? I thought they came to discuss their own problems... Turns out they just wanted to plunder what is rightfully ours!""It's such a pity, though. In our continent, our young geniuses are still far behind theirs. Now that the territory of the Continent-Swallowing Python Clan has finally opened after hundreds of years, there's no way we're giving up the resources buried inside to them, right?""Yeah, let's join hands! Don't let them seize a single resource that belongs to us!"Liste

Cultivators and city guards began assembling around the perimeter of the clash, assuming a fierce dispute had broken out."Everyone is heading this way. Judging by your personality, you don't even like revealing your beauty in public... Now there are only two choices left. Why are you still hesitating?" Yao Chen raised an eyebrow."I won't force you if you refuse... Perhaps you—""I agree..." Bi Shian interrupted quickly, immediately leading Yao Chen inside an inn.***After savoring the fragrant tea served to him for a moment, Yao Chen shook his head."Are you still suspecting that I have ulterior motives? This poison..." He glanced at Bi Shian, who was stunned. How could a young man who looked roughly her age detect poison with just a single glance?The aroma had been crafted to be as inviting as possible. How could he spot it without even tasting it, as though it were no different from their sect's finest tea?"I just want to keep our three disciples safe... You aren't one of us, s

Before the roots could strike, Yao Chen returned the block sword to its sheath behind his back. Raising one hand, the manifestation of the Heavenly Wrath Fire blazed intensely, causing every cultivator present to feel a scorching wave of heat!"S-So strong?!""H-Heavenly Flame?!"Everyone held their breath, watching a lotus made of fire spin wildly in Yao Chen's hand.Even Guang Bao’s face stiffened in shock; he had never expected the young man to harbor a Heavenly Flame within his body."There are so few in this continent who possess a Heavenly Flame?! Just who is he!"BOOOOOOOOOM! BOOOOOOM!Yao Chen acted, hurling the fire lotus directly into the oncoming drill head made of millions of roots. A series of explosions erupted as the sharp drill head was shattered into pieces."ROOT SHIELD?!"KRAAAAAAACK! BOOOOOM!The fire lotus reached the peak of its destructive power upon colliding with the barrier formed of roots. The shield shattered, leaving a pungent, burnt odor hanging in the ai
