502: Chapter 502 The Heavenly Emperor (67)

Desolate Heaven did not hesitate.

He had to act.

If he did not act now, everyone in the Family would die.

The power of the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body, having just touched the supreme level, was still unstable, with his aura fluctuating, but he could no longer care about that.

He took a step forward.

A half-step Heavenly Emperor against a Heavenly Emperor Puppet.

The first punch.

Bang!

Two completely different Emperor-level forces exploded in the Void Realm, and the shockwave leveled the ground for a hundred thousand li around.

Desolate Heaven was shaken back three steps.

The Heavenly Emperor Puppet did not move an inch.

The gap was still a chasm.

Desolate Heaven did not retreat.

The second punch.

The third punch.

The tenth punch.

Every punch carried the full power of the supreme Desolate Ancient Sacred Body, and every punch caused new cracks to appear on his body.

The Heavenly Emperor Puppet began to counterattack.

One palm strike.

The defense of Desolate Heaven's supreme Desolate Ancient Sacred Body shattered by one-third.

He spat out Emperor blood, his figure staggering.

Another palm strike.

The defense shattered by half.

His left arm broke.

The third palm strike.

Desolate Heaven was sent flying.

His body tumbled for tens of thousands of li in the Void Realm, and Emperor blood gushed from his mouth, mouthful after mouthful.

He forcibly steadied his figure.

He stood up.

Using one hand.

He charged back.

He was sent flying again.

He stood up again.

He charged back again.

Ye Yun stood in the distance, filled with worry.

He wanted to rush up.

But the aftermath of a Heavenly Emperor-level battle was enough to tear him apart.

He could not intervene.

...

Desolate Heaven was knocked down for the seventh time.

This time he could not stand up immediately.

He knelt there, supporting himself with one hand on the ground, his other broken arm hanging by his side, as golden Emperor blood pooled into a small golden river.

The Heavenly Emperor Puppet stood before him and raised its hand.

The final blow.

Just at this critical moment.

A mutation occurred within Ye Yun.

He took the initiative to trigger the Chaos Qi, attempting to use the Chaos Qi to interfere with the weirdness behind the Heavenly Emperor Puppet.

Gray currents of Qi surged within Ye Yun.

But this time, the Chaos Qi did not release outward.

It went downward.

Toward his feet.

Toward the deepest part of the Family ancestral land.

Ye Yun felt his Chaos Qi was like a key, inserting itself into the Seal at the very core of the ancestral land.

Boom!

The core of the forbidden area of the Family ancestral land exploded.

That area, where even Ancient Ancestors had to stop, was completely torn open at this moment.

A golden phantom rose from within.

The phantom was blurry, and its face could not be seen clearly.

But the aura emanating from it caused the heavens and earth to freeze.

The Heavenly Emperor Puppet's hand, which had already been raised, stopped in mid-air.

In its hollow eye sockets, the ghostly green flames flickered violently.

Desolate Heaven raised his head, looking at the phantom, his eyes filled with shock.

The Fourth Ancestor, the Fifth Ancestor, the Empress, and all the surviving members of the Family felt that aura at this moment.

The First Ancestor.

The Family's First Ancestor, the Heavenly Emperor.

That supreme existence who had created the eternal glory of the Family, the last remnant of his will and power of Origin, was triggered by Ye Yun's Chaos Qi and descended here.

The golden phantom made no unnecessary movements.

It took a step forward, blocking in front of Desolate Heaven.

The Heavenly Emperor Puppet's fist finally fell.

Bang!

The golden phantom took the punch head-on.

The phantom shook, becoming slightly more transparent.

But it did not shatter.

It backhanded a punch, slamming into the chest of the Heavenly Emperor Puppet.

The Heavenly Emperor Puppet was shaken back three steps.

The surroundings fell silent.

The residual power of the First Ancestor Heavenly Emperor and the Central Heavenly Court's Heavenly Emperor Puppet, controlled by the Abyss Lord, stood in confrontation above the Family ancestral land.

Golden and ghostly green lights intertwined, Laws collided, and stars shattered.

But Ye Yun's Heavenly Eye saw it clearly.

The First Ancestor's power was incomplete.

This was not a complete Heavenly Emperor fighting.

This was a remnant will burning its final Origin.

The phantom would become more transparent after every collision.

After ten moves, the phantom was already semi-transparent.

After twenty moves, the phantom was left with only a blurry outline.

It could not hold it back.

The remnant thought of the First Ancestor Heavenly Emperor understood this clearly.

It stopped attacking.

It was not giving up.

It was making a choice.

The golden phantom suddenly abandoned the direct confrontation with the Heavenly Emperor Puppet and turned around.

It poured all its remaining power into the ground beneath its feet.

The nine Ancestral Dragon veins let out a final Dragon roar.

It was not a mournful cry.

It was a roar.

Nine golden chains rushed out from the depths of the earth, completely wrapping the entire Family ancestral land—along with all the living members of the Family within it.

The Seal spread from the inside out, and the golden screen of light covered everything like an eggshell.

At the same time, the First Ancestor's will drove the last thread of power, tearing the Origin of the space beneath their feet.

The entire Family ancestral land began to move.

It was not flying.

It was separating.

Separating from this Dao Province.

Separating from the coordinate system of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces.

It was being exiled.

Sent into an unknown zone.

The Heavenly Emperor Puppet noticed.

It launched its final blow.

The terrifying blow, which condensed all the Law power of the Heavenly Emperor, was aimed at the golden Seal that was closing.

The phantom of the First Ancestor Heavenly Emperor blocked in front of the beam of light.

It used its already nearly transparent body to take the blow head-on.

Boom!

The phantom shattered.

Golden light dust danced across the sky.

But the beam of light was also completely exhausted.

The moment before the Seal closed, an ancient voice echoed within the Divine Soul of every member of the Family.

"My descendants, you must be self-reliant."

Click.

The Seal closed.

Space tore apart.

The Family ancestral land disappeared from the firmament of this Dao Province.

Only emptiness remained in the outside world.

As if the Family had never existed.

...

However.

What no one noticed was.

At the very last moment when the Seal closed, the remnant will of the First Ancestor Heavenly Emperor separated the final thread of power.

That thread of power was not poured into the Seal.

Instead, it acted precisely upon one person.

Ye Yun.

He was teleported away separately.

The direction was different.

The coordinates were different.

He was not sealed away.

When Ye Yun opened his eyes again, he found himself floating in a strange Void Realm.

Everything around him was pitch black.

There were no stars.

There were no Laws.

There was nothing.

He looked back.

Behind him was only emptiness.

In the direction of the Family, he could see nothing.

He reached out his hand and grabbed at the Void Realm.

He grabbed nothing.

The wind blew from an unknown place, stirring his blood-stained white robe.

Ye Yun withdrew his hand.

He stood in the emptiness, his entire shadow swallowed by the darkness.

But his gaze did not waver.

The Family had been sealed away.

The clansmen had been protected.

But they were also trapped; without external intervention, the members of the Family would be exiled forever, until they died.

He was the only one who had not been sealed away.

He was the Family's last hope.

He had to become stronger.

Strong enough to find the Family.

Strong enough to break the Seal.

Strong enough to—end all of this.

Ye Yun turned around and faced the endless darkness ahead.

He took the first step.
