Chapter 12731 Turning Point
scoff-
Ye Chen did not hesitate and swung his sword down, but not at the First Tyrant, but at the void!
The space was severed, and the flame of the Eternal Night Fire immediately fell down, which Ye Chen caught.
The intense heat almost burned through Ye Chen's palm.
The temperature of this flame is terrifying.
Ye Chen withdrew his hand, immediately collecting the fire seed and storing it in the Frenzied Devouring Fragment. He then placed the Frenzied Devouring Fragment into the Heavenly Saint Bottle to ensure its complete safety.
Ye Chen had no intention of going against the First Tyrant; that would be tantamount to courting death.
From beginning to end, his goal was only that eternal night of burning fire!
Having obtained the Eternal Night Flame, Ye Chen leaped back, retreating behind Elders Yao Chen, Ming Xi, and Jing Xuan. He then looked down at his palm, where the skin and flesh had been scorched and were smoking, emitting a burnt smell.
A sharp, burning pain shot through my bones.
The energy of this eternal night fire was terrifying, beyond Ye Chen's imagination.
Everyone was stunned. No one expected that Ye Chen would seize the Eternal Night Flame so swiftly.
"My life force!"
After his initial shock, the first tyrant erupted in fury, nearly spitting blood in his rage.
"Chance!"
"Blow him up!"
Luo Haifu's eyes flashed, and taking advantage of the First Tyrant's anger and negligence, he immediately issued an order.
The two corpse puppets, like ghosts, suddenly charged in front of the First Tyrant and grabbed him from the left and right.
Inside the corpse puppet, the aura of Buddhist incense and death intertwined wildly, causing its skin to crack and overflow with thick, dark red corpse fluid.
That's a sign that's about to explode!
"Fool! How dare you!"
The First Tyrant's pupils suddenly contracted.
He could clearly sense that the destructive power contained within these two corpse puppets was enough to severely injure him.
Under normal circumstances, these two corpse puppets would be unable to get close at all.
But just now, he was so angry that he became agitated and his defense was careless, which allowed Luo Haifu to seize a fatal opportunity!
The First Tyrant frantically channeled his spiritual energy, causing the dragon patterns on his black dragon robe to surge. Streams of purple energy danced wildly like dragons and snakes, relentlessly bombarding the corpse puppet's body, trying to break free of its restraints.
But the two corpse puppets had already tightly bound him.
"burst!"
Luo Haifu shouted angrily and retreated in a flash.
Boom! ...
A deafening roar reverberated around the outer perimeter of the Yaoxing Ancient Realm. Two blinding black-gold orbs of light suddenly exploded, and the destructive shockwave swept in all directions like a tsunami. A massive crater thousands of feet deep was blasted into the ground, and even the restrictions of the Yaoxing Ancient Realm were shaken, causing ripples to spread.
The power of the corpse puppet's self-destruction was mixed with the decaying Buddhist power of the Myriad Causes Corpse Buddha, which was extremely corrosive. Wherever it passed, rocks melted, forests decayed, and holy light was extinguished.
Ye Chen, Ye Xingcai, the three Holy Light Elders, and Luo Haifu had already retreated rapidly. Even so, the shockwave made their heads buzz and their internal organs churn.
Fortunately, the shockwaves from these explosions were within the range that everyone could withstand.
The truly terrifying aspect of the explosion of the two corpse puppets was the myriad corpse energies contained within them.
These countless corpses, imbued with boundless sins, were all poured upon the First Tyrant.
This is the truly deadly law of destruction!
Ye Chen and the others were only affected by the impact of the explosion and were not harmed by the laws, so they were naturally unharmed.
Smoke and dust filled the air, obscuring the sky and the sun. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the center of the pit, and no one dared to breathe.
As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, a disheveled figure slowly came into view.
The First Tyrant still stood in the same spot, his black dragon robe already shattered, his body a bloody mess, with bones exposed in many places, covered in black char marks.
The imperial purple aura surrounding him became extremely weak, polluted by wisps of chaotic and sinful energy.
His breathing became rapid and disordered, clearly indicating that he had suffered a severe injury.
"Go! Kill him!"
Luo Haifu shouted at Ye Xingcai and the three elders. At this moment, the First Tyrant had been seriously injured by the explosion, which was the perfect opportunity to kill him.
Elders Yaochen, Mingxi, and Jingxuan immediately flew forward to attack.
Ye Xingcai remained stationary, guarding Ye Chen.
Ye Chen had just received the Eternal Night Burning Flame, and his palm was severely burned. He was temporarily unable to fight and was recovering from his injuries.
The three elders, enveloped in overwhelming holy light, instantly arrived before the First Tyrant.
But at that moment, something unexpected happened!
The First Tyrant suddenly raised his head, his eyes turning as black as ink, and a chilling aura suddenly emanated from his body.
That yin energy, cold and viscous, carrying endless malevolent energy, instantly swept across the entire pit, even freezing the surrounding air.
The three elders felt waves of terrifying Yin energy constantly encroaching upon them, and the holy light surrounding them was quickly extinguished.
"not good!"
The three elders' expressions changed drastically; they instantly sensed something was wrong and retreated rapidly.
Luo Haifu was stunned when he saw the sinister aura emanating from the First Tyrant. He seemed to recognize something, and his body trembled as he stammered:
"This...this is impossible."
"This is... the Yin-Yang Remnant Pact! It's the aura of the Yin-Yang Remnant Pact!"
The First Tyrant was surrounded by a malevolent aura, bearing hundreds of ancient characters—characters from the very beginning of the Great Dao.
These characters, square and neat, were almost identical to the characters used by Ye Chen in China.
In places where the Dao truly prevails, the written language that eventually evolves will inevitably be the same as the written language at the beginning of the Dao. Therefore, the written language and languages used by all the heavens and myriad worlds will eventually converge.
At this moment, the First Tyrant possessed the secrets of the nascent Great Dao. Hundreds of characters, like butterflies, fluttered amidst wisps of Yin energy, displaying a pressure that surpassed all laws and paths.
"You wretch, you think you can blow me up?"
The First Tyrant looked at Luo Haifu with cold, cruel eyes.
Then, he slowly raised his hand, and pitch-black eerie flames ignited from his palm.
The yin fire was different from the scorching heat of the eternal night fire; instead, it exuded a bone-chilling cold.
Before Luo Haifu could react, the First Tyrant raised his hand and waved it. The Yin Fire transformed into a giant claw that ignored the existence of time and space and grabbed Luo Haifu's waist.
"Ahhh-"
Luo Haifu's face turned deathly pale, as he felt a terrifying and malevolent poisonous fire frantically eroding his body.
The intense, insidious burning pain instantly contorted his facial features into a grimace.
"Etc., etc!"
"First Tyrant, you dare to kill me?"
"I am the governor of Feather Island. If you kill me, you will be making an enemy of the entire Void City!"
At the critical moment of life and death, Luo Haifu was sweating profusely and could only pin his hopes on the deterrent power of the Void Market.
After all, the Void Market was a powerful and influential place, full of hidden talents. Even the Corpse Buddha of Ten Thousand Industries had to give it some face. He didn't believe that the First Tyrant would dare to defy the world and kill him, a core figure in the Void Market.
But upon hearing this, the First Tyrant suddenly let out a piercing sneer: "To be an enemy of the Void Market? What wouldn't I dare to do?"
He paused, his gaze slowly shifting to Ye Chen in the crowd. A sinister smile curled at the corner of his lips, and his voice suddenly rose, echoing throughout the entire area:
"Moreover, the one who killed you was not me, but him—the Lord of Reincarnation, Ye Chen!"
With a single, insightful remark, the First Tyrant revealed Ye Chen's true identity.
"what?!"
The entire audience erupted in uproar, and everyone's eyes instantly focused on Ye Chen, their eyes filled with shock, confusion, and wariness.
Luo Haifu's eyes widened in disbelief, his fear instantly replaced by astonishment: "He...he is the Lord of Reincarnation?"
"The Lord of Reincarnation!?"
Elders Yaochen, Mingxi, and Jingxuan immediately showed signs of vigilance.
The First Tyrant smiled and stared at Ye Chen, saying:
"Lord of Reincarnation, I never expected you would dare to pursue me."
"You concealed it very well. I couldn't see your true colors until now."
The First Tyrant was surrounded by wisps of Yin energy, clearly indicating that he had used the power of the Yin-Yang Remnant Contract to see through Ye Chen's brilliance and identity.
With his identity exposed, Ye Chen was also in turmoil.
"The emperor is innocent, hehe... If I have truly committed any sin, then you shall bear the consequences, Lord of Reincarnation."
The First Tyrant unleashed a powerful aura, forming an imperial domain.
Within this imperial domain, everyone is his subject.
The emperor is innocent; those above are always good, and those below are always at fault.
This is the way of the emperor.
The first tyrant was the original emperor, the first monarch in the world, and he understood this principle even better.
The emperor is exempt from all the blame.
The emperor said he would spare no expense, meaning he himself would not have to pay the price; it was his subjects who would have to sacrifice.
The first tyrant said "Emperors are innocent," so he could forcibly transfer all his own karmic sins onto others, even distorting their perceptions and altering established facts.
Ye Chen felt a sharp pain in his mind as a strange force forcibly invaded, trying to distort his memories.
He wielded control over all paths, even the divine power of memory itself; his sea of consciousness was incredibly sturdy, barely managing to withstand this force. But others were not so fortunate.
Luo Haifu trembled, his consciousness twisted, and the astonishment in his eyes gradually turned into a deep-seated hatred. He stared intently at Ye Chen and roared:
"Lord of Reincarnation! It was you all along! You stole the 'Remnant Yin-Yang Contract,' and now you want to kill me to silence me! I will never forgive you!"
Ye Chen was stunned when he heard Luo Haifu's rebuke.
Luo Haifu's perception was clearly distorted; he believed that the emperor was innocent and that Ye Chen was guilty.
The three Holy Light Elders were momentarily dazed, and when they looked at Ye Chen again, their eyes were filled with hostility and killing intent. They all thought:
"This Lord of Reincarnation is ruthless! He actually stole the 'Yin-Yang Remnant Contract' and even tried to kill Luo Haifu to silence him. Tai Chu said he was the most evil cancer, and it's true!"
"Aaaaah—I'm not reconciled! The one who killed me was Ye Chen!"
Luo Haifu was scorched by the Yin Fire, and his flesh and blood quickly dried up, about to be burned into charcoal.
Before he died, he let out a desperate and shrill roar, believing that Ye Chen had killed him.
His voice soared to the heavens, shaking the very fabric of the universe.
From this moment on, the major case of the missing "Yin-Yang Contract" finally had a clear outline.
It was Ye Chen who stole the "Yin Yang Remnant Contract" and killed Luo Haifu to silence him.
"Uncle Ye..."
Ye Xingcai's eyes became confused and complicated. She obviously did not expect Ye Chen to be so ruthless as to kill people and steal their treasures.
Her mental state has been severely distorted and affected.
In an instant, Ye Chen felt an immense injustice weighing on his heart.
He was wronged by the first tyrant!
But what's even stranger is that he finds it difficult to generate thoughts of resistance and hatred.
It's like when a ruler commands his subject to die, the subject has no choice but to die.
The will of a tyrant is terrifying!
"Why..."
Ye Chen gritted his teeth, guarding his Dao heart. When he saw the gazes cast by Ye Xingcai and the three elders, he knew that he had been completely wronged.
Now everyone believes that he stole the "Yin Yang Remnant Contract" and killed Luo Haifu.
But with the first tyrant right in front of them, why did Ye Xingcai and the others remain oblivious?
"They can no longer see me. With the power of the Yin-Yang Remnant Contract, I have entered a special state of spiritual vision."
"You can still see me because I allow you to see me."
"I will spare your life today, Lord of Reincarnation."
The First Tyrant revealed a smug and arrogant smile as he slowly straightened up.
Although still seriously injured, his aura became increasingly terrifying.
Yin energy continuously flowed out of his body, repairing his injuries.
He looked at Ye Chen and said:
"You are lucky, Lord of Reincarnation. I would have killed you otherwise."
"But now, I will make you a scapegoat, to bear my sins, and allow you to live a little longer."
"I don't need to take action. The Void Market will issue a kill order, and you will surely die."
When the Void Market was mentioned, the First Tyrant's tone was somewhat wary.
Void Market is the largest exchange in the world, with connections to various forces. Legend has it that the person behind it is an extremely secretive and powerful figure.
He was unwilling to offend Void Market, so he shifted all the blame onto Ye Chen.
"Now, it is time to return my life force."
A chill flashed in the eyes of the First Tyrant, and the Yin Fire on his body burned even more fiercely.
Wisps of yin fire transformed into a giant claw, grabbing from a distance.
In an instant, Ye Chen felt a powerful suction force coming from the giant claw of Yin Fire.
The Eternal Night Flame within his body suddenly burst into flames, resonating strongly with the giant claw of Yin Fire, and was about to break free and fly out.
Ye Chen gritted his teeth and forcefully suppressed the Eternal Night Flame, preventing it from escaping.
"Stop struggling, or you'll just be reduced to ashes."
The First Tyrant spoke indifferently, continuing to urge the Yin Fire back to its rightful place, intending to summon the Eternal Night Flame back to its position.
Ye Chen was unwilling to let go, and as the two struggled, the Eternal Night Flame burned fiercely. With a whoosh, it instantly erupted with layers of tribulation fire, engulfing Ye Chen's entire body.
Ye Chen felt an intense burning pain, as if his whole body was about to be burned to ashes.
Ye Xingcai and the three elders of Holy Light stared in utter astonishment at the scene before them.
From their perspective, the First Tyrant was no longer visible; they only saw Ye Chen suddenly spontaneously combusting.
All four were perceptive individuals and sensed that something was amiss.
There are still people here!
"Who is it? Their spiritual vision cultivation is so terrifying that even I can't see them."
The three elders, Yao Chen, Ming Xi, and Jing Xuan, were shocked and wanted to use some secret techniques to investigate, but they were also inexplicably afraid and dared not look around recklessly.
This is actually a fear of "tyrants"!
Ye Chen was also shocked. Logically speaking, with the First Tyrant's spiritual vision cultivation, it would be impossible for him to hide it from the three elders.
But somehow, he managed to keep it a secret.
Ye Chen could tell that it must be the effect of the Yin-Yang Remnant Contract!
The special energy boost from the Yin-Yang Remnant Contract caused the First Tyrant's strength to surge, and even his spiritual vision cultivation increased dramatically, managing to deceive the Three Elders of Holy Light.
Ye Chen is now all alone, facing the First Tyrant by himself.
Under the scorching heat of the Eternal Night Fire, Ye Chen was in excruciating pain all over his body. His endurance had reached its limit. If he continued to resist the Eternal Night Fire, he would surely be burned to ashes!
At this critical moment, a dazzling golden-red light suddenly shot into the sky from the depths of the Yaoxing Ancient Realm.
