Free Web NovelChapter 1696: Chapter 183: Thirteen Origin Crisis
Immortal Buddha Ancient Land.
The mighty Rule Power cascaded down in waves like waterfalls.
As the light swirled, the figures of thirteen beautiful women spun continuously within, forming dazzling marks.
These marks, originating from the most primordial form of life, resembled the ancient words at the beginning of creation.
These words lacked complete shapes, with every curve holding an indescribable beauty.
Yet this beauty also embodied the natural essence of creation and origin.
This was once the initial form of the King’s Mark, also the embryonic form of the Tao.
The thirteen beautiful female figures formed this shape, naturally representing the combination of thirteen Original Marks.
In this situation, the complete fusion of thirteen origins into one would lead to the total loss of self for these thirteen origins.
...
Inside the Ancestor Dragon Warship, Holy Spirit Evil Venerable Zhou Yan entered, and upon reaching the core hub, he saw an unimaginable and unbelievable scene.
That scene was happening right before his eyes.
His thirteen wives—Feng Zishuang, Mu Qingyan, Jiang Yuning, Zhou Lingyi, Bai Ying, Gu Xi, Long Xianyin, Qian Xi, Ping’er, Qian Luoshui, Fei Ya, Suxin, Fu Wanling—were all fabricated into the source of the King’s Mark.
The moment Zhou Yan looked over, he saw the Soul Emperor deriving the initial form and moving towards the thirteen origins.
The Soul Emperor, the true controller of the Emperor Soul Clan, had once come into contact with Jiang He from the Jiang family.
Despite Zhou Yan knowing he never underestimated Jiang He, he was still deeply shocked by this scene.
He never imagined the situation would turn out like this.
Back then, didn’t the Emperor assure him of the safety of those around him?
Didn’t the Ancient Life Clan promise to protect those close to him?
Hadn’t it been agreed on...
But now, at the moment of impending downfall, Zhou Yan suddenly realized he couldn’t trust anything.
Perhaps in this world, except for himself and his long-suffering brother, there was no life to trust.
Growing to this point, unable to see through the simplest truth, it’s unbearably sad and profoundly painful.
Zhou Yan felt no sorrow, no pain; his eyes fixed on the scene with a strong urge to reverse fate.
At this moment, he focused on the time axis—the Time Ancient Land, controlling the destiny, the only place for all Holy Spirits and Eternal Life Beings to exist.
Synchronously, there was also the Immortal Buddha Divine Race Ancient Land and the Jiang family’s Blood River Ancient Land.
Besides these, there were still some Ancient Lands unknown to Zhou Yan.
However, all these lands were shrouded by the Time Ancient Land, forming a fatal cycle in space-time.
If the time axis could be changed, then everything could be changed!
"I am unwilling to let the Emperor Soul Clan indeed try to exterminate my thirteen wives; I must change all this!"
Zhou Yan’s heart roared, all his energy turned furious, and in unyielding anger, he fiercely charged at the time axis.
In that instant, his body collided with the time axis; however, at that moment, a Blood Crystal Coffin suddenly resisted, and a figure forcibly appeared, enveloping the shattered Zhou Yan within the Blood Crystal Coffin.
...
Deep within the Time Ancient Land, amidst the endless void appears limitless Void Thunder Tribulation.
In the Void Thunder Tribulation, Lee Ran drove the Blood Crystal Coffin, continuously condensing Zhou Yan’s origin.
Ultimately, Zhou Yan’s origin reunited with difficulty, but the endless Void Thunder Tribulation derived the destruction power of the time axis, fiercely suppressing Lee Ran.
"Psh--"
Lee Ran’s body shattered, but at that moment, Zhou Yan was swept into the time axis.
Just at this time, the void between heaven and earth suddenly twisted, and the time axis seemed to be frozen.
Originally, the Pan Emperor had begun to condense thirteen Original Marks, but now suddenly they didn’t shatter; instead, they converged directly, focusing on Zhou Yan’s origin, condensing similarly.
The Pan Emperor didn’t notice this change; in the instant the time froze, he resumed as if nothing was amiss.
At this moment, the Pan Emperor was astonished to find the Evil Venerate Sword he was about to forge had already taken shape.
"How did it suddenly become successful in condensing?"
Pan Emperor asked with great bewilderment.
"This--"
Not far from him, the seductive woman Nuwa also was blankly stunned, clearly not expecting the situation, which had been far from completion, to suddenly finish.
Not only Nuwa, even the main entity condensing this origin, the Emperor, was also somewhat flabbergasted.
"Indeed, it succeeded, even strongly beyond our expectations, but... now, it’s unclear the situation; derivations and calculations have completely failed."
The Emperor said helplessly.
His eyes reflected a sense of helplessness, evidently an unforeseen result.
"Let’s proceed; since we’ve acted, there’s no retreat."
"Alright."
The Pan Emperor and the Emperor exchanged glances and proceeded again.
However, at this moment, the void suddenly shuddered, then a Blood River from ancient space abruptly suppressed.
This terrifying aura of slaughter has already engulfed this void.
This method of the Blood River is precisely the power of the Blood River from Jiang He.
Jiang He took action again.
"Hmph!"
Pan Emperor’s heart sank. Immediately, he reached out with an illusory hand towards the void, and a terrifying giant axe suddenly appeared in the void, then the giant axe directly cleaved downwards.
The frightening power of shattering heaven and earth exploded directly upon the Blood River like a purple lightning splitting the void.
The Blood River rippled endlessly, yet it did not shatter nor crack; instead, it paused quietly for a moment, then resumed its savage onslaught once more.
"Boom--"
Nuwa suddenly took action, and a five-colored divine stone exploded out like a detonating planet.
At that moment, the Blood River trembled violently, and then the powerful impact and killing intent of the Blood River completely shattered.
However, Nuwa trembled, her huge body manifested its original form—a human head with a snake body.
This human-head snake-body form was exactly the same as the shadow Zhou Yan had seen on the summit of the Endless Snow Domain in the past.
"Buzz--"
After the Blood River shattered, large amounts of blood water began to seep out from Nuwa’s body, the blood water was extremely scarlet, yet extremely bright.
"Nuwa, step back."
Pan Emperor said in a deep voice.
Nuwa did not retreat, instead, she stepped forward.
"Pan Emperor, swiftly refine the Evil Venerate Sword, then you can counter-kill!"
Nuwa said firmly.
"The Evil Venerate Sword is nearly complete, there will always be a chance, but at that time if you are not here, the Gods and Buddhas Divine Race’s inheritance will be half-broken—the price is too high."
The Emperor suddenly said.
Then he stepped forward, standing in front of Nuwa.
Nuwa trembled, her hollow eyes without pupils suddenly looked at the Emperor.
"You--"
Nuwa softly uttered a word, but did not continue.
"I know you no longer blame me, but I just want to tell you, from beginning to end, my heart is just as it was."
The Emperor said, seemingly implying something.
Nuwa’s delicate face suddenly turned paler.
But at this time, the Emperor had already deployed the Eight Array Map, unleashing a lethal strike.
The Eight Array Map locked in time, simultaneously targeting Jiang He within the Blood River.
Jiang He sneered, his whole body surging with bloodlines, the endless Blood River, like billions of lights converging, existed everywhere, yet nowhere.
"How... how can it be so powerful, you—you broke through to the true Evil Venerate realm?"
Pan Emperor was shocked, his voice slightly trembling.
"Not quite, but it’s enough to deal with you. It’s just your bad luck, you’re still a bit short."
Jiang He said with a sneer.
Then, the endless Blood River was about to directly devour Pan Emperor, Nuwa, and the Emperor.
However, at this moment, the Eight Array Map continuously split, eventually transforming into an endless vast space.
The vast space directly enveloped the endless Blood River, manifesting an incomparably strong power of devouring, attempting to swallow the endless Blood River.
"You, still fall short!"
Jiang He sneered, the Blood River was about to erupt, intending to instantly counterattack and kill the Emperor.
But just then, a dreadfully blood-colored Crystal Coffin appeared between heaven and earth, the lid of the coffin abruptly opened, and after opening, a swath of blood light shot out from within.
The blood light suddenly wrapped around the endless Blood River, then a terrifying power of devouring erupted.
"Boom--"
The powerful counterforce instantly blasted Jiang He’s chest, and at that moment, Jiang He’s chest was forcibly pierced and shattered.
However, Jiang He casually pinched, grabbing that swath of blood light, then fiercely rubbed it.
"Puff--"
The powerful blood light was instantly shattered.
The blood-colored Crystal Coffin, after devouring the power of the endless Blood River, suddenly flew backward, slamming hard into a blood-colored phantom figure.
"Pfft--"
That blood-colored phantom figure was instantly shattered, transforming into endless Soul Energy.
The endless Soul Energy flew around, quickly gathering into clusters of fragmented souls.
The fragmented souls, without support, actively flew towards the nearing completion Evil Venerate Sword.
"Buzz--"
Clusters of fragmented souls converged into the Evil Venerate Sword, causing it to tremble fiercely.
Then, Pan Emperor and Nuwa’s colors changed completely.
The Evil Venerate Sword fluctuated violently, and when it was about to succeed, it suddenly shattered, breaking into thirteen fragments of the Evil Venerate Sword, sweeping up those clusters of fragmented souls, like a flash of lightning, shooting towards the time axis that had appeared with cracks.
