293: Chapter 293 He called me "boy" just now, and now he's calling me "son-in-law"?

"System! Give me the Empowerment!!!"

Su Feng muttered in his heart.

The vast foundation accumulated through Harem Critical Hits over these hundred years was finally released completely at this moment!

[Ding! 200,000 years of cultivation extracted, upgrading host's Realm—]

"Rumble!!!"

Su Feng, who had just stepped into the Saint Realm a second ago, suddenly felt the Qi in his body erupt like a volcano.

Ten thousand years of cultivation burned frantically!

The Law of Time within him instantly let out a deafening roar, directly breaking through the shackles of the Heavenly Dao!

A vast pressure belonging exclusively to the Early Stage of the Great Emperor Realm, like a tangible storm, swept across the entire field!

"This... this is?!"

The Shadow Emperor, who was originally prepared to suppress Su Feng with Great Emperor majesty, felt his illusory body tremble violently upon sensing this Law of Time.

In his eyes, disbelief instantly filled his gaze.

"How is it possible?! He just came out of the Creation Pool and attained Sainthood, he hasn't even caught his breath yet, how did he promote to Great Emperor in the blink of an eye?!"

The Jidao Empress could become an emperor instantly because she was a Great Emperor in her previous life.

But the Shadow Emperor searched through millions of years of ancient records in the Star Domain and couldn't find a figure like Su Feng to match.

Throughout the long history of the Star Domain, aside from the Reincarnation of a Great Emperor, he had never heard of anyone who could promote directly from a Saint to the Great Emperor Realm!

"It makes no sense!! This defies the common sense of the Universe!!"

The Shadow Emperor's illusory figure began to flicker violently, becoming extremely unreal, showing the shock and horror in his heart at this moment.

However, Su Feng's Breakthrough hadn't ended.

He wasn't in a hurry to keep pushing his Realm, but with a thought, he mobilized 20,000 years of cultivation and poured it frantically into the two taboo laws of [Space] and [Life and Death] within him.

As the power of the laws deepened, Su Feng keenly perceived that between the three distinct yet closely related laws of Time, Space, and Life and Death, there was a faint, extremely mysterious connection.

It was as if... they were the basic framework for some higher-level existence.

At the moment these three laws intertwined, a System notification that made Su Feng ecstatic exploded in his mind.

[Ding!]

[Detected that the host simultaneously controls the three 'Creation Laws' of 'Time', 'Space', and 'Life and Death'.]

[Congratulations to the host! You now have the preliminary ability to shape an Internal Universe/World Prototype! (Note: This is an authority beyond the Great Emperor)]

"So that's how it is!"

Su Feng's eyes suddenly lit up.

He knew that the Star Domain army's biggest weakness against the Domain Demon Mother Nest was the lack of legendary [Heavenly Emperor] level figures.

And he had actually directly touched the key to that supreme authority!

It seems following his intuition was indeed correct!

Su Feng didn't hesitate anymore and shouted in his heart: "System! Take the remaining 170,000 years of cultivation and go all-in for me!"

"Boom!!!"

60,000 years of cultivation infused!

Su Feng's Realm let out a crisp cracking sound again, breaking through from the Early Stage of the Great Emperor Realm directly to the Middle Stage of the Great Emperor Realm in an extremely domineering manner!

Immediately after, the remaining 110,000 years of cultivation washed through his entire body like a tsunami.

But the foundation required for each step forward in the Great Emperor Realm was too terrifying; these 110,000 years of cultivation eventually left Su Feng's Realm stuck at a threshold just one step away from the Late Stage of the Great Emperor Realm.

He only needed a little more critical hit feedback to steadily step into the Late Stage!

"Phew..."

Su Feng slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and the phenomenon of distorted time and space around him gradually retracted.

He smacked his lips with some regret: "What a pity, a hundred thousand years was still too little, just short of that final step."

"..."

Hearing this, Empress Jiuyou and the Shadow Emperor nearby were now completely dumbfounded, as if they were looking at some unknown terrifying monster.

"Wait, what?!"

On Empress Jiuyou's usually cold and elegant face, the corners of her mouth were twitching frantically: "Don't tell me you're also some old monster's Reincarnation?!"

She had been secretly rejoicing, thinking she had finally restored her Great Emperor cultivation and could suppress Su Feng in terms of Realm.

Not only could she help him regain face in front of the Shadow Emperor, but she could also return the favor from these past hundred years.

But looking at it now... where did this bastard need her help!

He himself was a damn human-shaped cheat code who could adjust his combat power at any time!

On the other side.

Feeling the pressure of the Realm on Su Feng that was faintly suppressing him.

The expression of the Shadow Clan Great Emperor could be described as colorful to the extreme.

His face shifted between light and dark, like a Sichuan opera face-changer, turning pale one moment, flushed the next, and then black as the bottom of a pot.

As an old fox who had lived for countless ages, the Shadow Emperor knew very well how to assess the situation.

A Middle Stage Great Emperor cheater, plus a reincarnated Jidao Empress, plus Su Yu, that grandson with Heaven-Defying talent... how could this battle even be fought?!

"Ahem..."

Finally, the Shadow Emperor took a deep breath.

On his majestic face, a smile that was harder to look at than crying was stiffly squeezed out.

He rubbed his hands together, his tone taking a 180-degree turn, calling out incomparably affectionately:

"That... worthy son-in-law."

"Look at how this turned out. Since you and Liuli have already tied the knot and even have a child, aren't we just one family!"

The Shadow Emperor waved his hand magnanimously and announced righteously: "These Three Thousand Upper Realms will still be under your full command, worthy son-in-law. The Star Domain will never interfere!"

"At the same time, Liuli's child, Su Yu, has supreme talent. From today onwards, he will be listed as the first in line of succession for my Shadow Clan, and will be cultivated with the full strength of the entire clan!"

"Ah??"

Ying Liuzhan was completely stunned.

She pointed at herself in confusion, looking at her father in disbelief: "Father? Am I not the successor of the Shadow Clan? What are you talking about?!"

Su Feng looked at Ying Liuzhan's expression of questioning her life, and then at the beaming father-in-law opposite him.

He really couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing on the spot.

Su Feng crossed his arms, looking at this Shadow Clan Great Emperor with a face full of mockery:

"I say, Shadow Emperor, your face-changing is truly breathtaking."

"Just now when I was a Saint, you called me kid. Now that I've shown cultivation stronger than yours, you've changed your tune to call me worthy son-in-law?"

Su Feng exposed his hypocrisy extremely bluntly and gave a thumbs up.

"Your ability to sail with the wind is truly worthy of your title as the Shadow Emperor!"

"However, I still prefer your arrogant and unyielding look from before!"
