Country of Ye, the first of August, an auspicious day.

On the Heaven Ritual Altar, the young King of Ye had just turned ten years old and was starting to worship the heavens.

He dressed in a black upper garment to represent heaven and a yellow lower garment to represent earth, indicating his intention to carry on the will of heaven. It was the most ceremonious robe.

However, all the civil and military officials were kneeling and facing a figure in another direction.

Lin Shoucheng looked calm, and he had also put on his ceremonial robe as part of the regulations.

Evidently, the abdication process was still ongoing!

In truth, he had the capability to do this ever since he had barged into the capital of Ye. However, Lin Shoucheng was a patient man and listened to Jiang Wang’s suggestion. Not only did he not bully or humiliate the royal family, he even married a princess.

Now that Yang Xiu had died, everything fell into place.

“... In accordance with the heavens, cooperating with the emperor, to put forth a person to succeed the position and carry on heaven’s will...”

After the little king recited the edict tremblingly, he was brought to the side to kneel.

Lin Shoucheng walked to the center of the Heaven Ritual Altar. While he appeared extremely satisfied, his heart was beating rapidly. According to what Teacher said... I have evil Qi in my body that the heavens and the earth can not tolerate. If I worship the heavens, there is bound to be a calamity!

Even though I can rise quickly through the changes in the heavens and the earth, the true danger isn’t really heaven’s will... Instead, it is the existence that planted the seed of evil in me! When children of evil like us worship the heavens, it will be his time to harvest his crops! Collecting the fate of countries is not even the most severe consequence. The most severe will be taking over our bodies and souls, turning us into his puppet!

However, the arrow was already notched. He had no choice but to release it.

Lin Shoucheng took a deep breath and began the address, “I, minister of the country, Lin Shoucheng...”

The address was very simple. It was basically to worship to the heavens as the king of the country while declaring the alteration of the country Ye’s official name.

We already have control of the majority of the country’s armies, and we’ve roped in some of the influential families. His Highness is considered a relative of the king, so even though there is still some resistance, it’s not too much...

Jiang Wang observed everything quietly.

He looked at the five-colored mist converging on the altar and the black dragon roaring. Everything looked normal.

If it wasn’t for Teacher’s warning, who would have thought about the upcoming danger?

Jiang Wang sighed and looked at his teacher beside him.

To think he isn’t acting yet. I doubt he hasn’t noticed my presence, so that means... something is holding him back? Is he injured?

After the Lord of the Void suffered the impact of the Gun of Extinction, all his souls in that world were completely destroyed. Not only that, some of the effects might have extended back to his main body.

While it might not have caused any serious injuries or consequences to a Demon God protected by a Great Dao, an injury was still an injury.

Moreover, the Lord of the Void possessed billions of incarnations in many different worlds. Those weaker incarnations might not be able to withstand the impact of the Gun of Extinction.

Of course... there’s a possibility that the country of Ye is too small to attract his attention. Fang Yuan shook his head. It seems like I have to help this disciple out!

Buzz buzz!

Not long later, a few magical clouds flew in. Auspicious auras surrounded the clouds, and Immortals appeared on them.

“These... are all Heaven Immortals?”

The only Earth Immortal in the mansion felt his legs go weak.

After completing his worship to the heavens, Lin Shoucheng was about to bestow gifts upon the officials. Now, he was going through the motions to ask, “Greetings, Immortals. Why are all of you here?”

“We don’t dare!” A Heaven Immortal landed and greeted. “King Lin is a dragon among men who will definitely ensure the safety of his citizens. Today, the country of Lin is established, and the rightful sovereign has ascended the throne. On behalf of the countries of Musang, Zhu, and Kun, I have formally come to present the credentials of our allegiance. We are all willing to serve under your regime!”

“What?!”

Numerous officials were dumbfounded.

The original country of Ye, which was now the country of Lin, was merely a small country on the continent. They only had three prefectures, which was basically nothing.

On the other hand, the countries of Musang, Zhu, and Kun were legitimately big countries with powerful neighbors. Even the weakest one had an area of seven prefectures. This was simply a massive step up for a small country like it!

One could say that after he had completely digested everything, the country of Lin would become the overlord among the countries. It was entirely possible to unite the human realm and become the true ‘Son of Heaven’!

“Since this is the case, I shall accept the credentials of your countries!”

Lin Shoucheng was moved and immediately thought of Fang Yuan.

Only his mysterious teacher could pull off something like this.

Being able to force so many countries and Heaven Immortals into submission... His teacher’s identity became much more mysterious and unfathomable.

“Teacher, this is...”

Jiang Wang jumped in fear and looked at Fang Yuan.

In his heart, he also knew that only Fang Yuan could do something like this.

Fang Yuan smiled and said, “These Immortal Sects have history with me, and they have some operating power in the countries of the secular world. I’ve ordered them here to add to the occasion!”

These Heaven Immortals had attended his lecture and accepted his treasures, so naturally they were going to be controlled by him.

It would only take a single word from him to make these Immortal Sects turncoat, let alone serve a mortal country under him.

“This gift is simply too much!” Jiang Wang’s voice was trembling. The addition of these countries was simply about ten times greater than the original country of Ye.

“There is no need to say anything else. I will continue to observe!”

Fang Yuan squinted, looking at the Heaven Ritual Altar.

“All hail the king!”

The officials were dazed, but they instinctively went to their knees.

Lin Shoucheng looked extremely proud, clearly enjoying this moment.

Under Fang Yuan’s Heavenly Eye Seer Spell, no Qi could hide from him.

Within the void, a large lump of purple and black Qi descended.

The black dragon cheered excitedly and took in a deep breath. The dragon’s body grew in size, and its power was also increasing exponentially.

Earlier, the Lord of the Void could still bear with it. What about now? If he still chooses not to act, there would be the danger of having all his arrangements collapse and destroyed by me...

Fang Yuan thought about it again. No... if he chooses to act now, it proves one thing. That is, he planned everything in advance, and intervention will automatically trigger once it reaches a certain extent. Could the Lord of the Void be so injured that he can’t worry about the matters in the mortal world anymore?

Swoosh!

The moment he thought that.

Multiple black chains appeared in the void. Like pythons, they extended out to restrain the black dragon.

The designs of the black chains were mysterious, containing the energy of a Great Dao. Even though the black dragon was close to becoming a true dragon, its struggles were still not enough to break free from the chains.

Poof! Poof!

Not only that, some of these black chains even acted like arrows, piercing through the black dragon’s body.

“Ahh!”

On the altar, Lin Shoucheng clutched his chest, his face turning pale in pain.

Traces of the Dragon Qi were extracted through the chains, and they converged and disappeared into the void.

Shortly after, a peculiar Qi was about to enter the black dragon’s body through the chains.

“I’ve been waiting for you!”

Fang Yuan’s body flashed and appeared above the altar.

The invisible Qi became visible and material in front of him. He grabbed the chains and stopped it.

Crack!

Large portions of the chains shattered. The black dragon broke free of its restraint and flew toward the sky.

“Thank you for saving me, Teacher!”

Lin Shoucheng suddenly felt at ease and an incredible feeling of release.

However, Fang Yuan could not be bothered with him.

While holding on to the trembling chains in his hand, he locked in on a space in the void before charging toward that space and disappearing.

Swoosh!

Above the high heavens, Fang Yuan’s body flashed explosively as though he were teleporting.

Every time he disappeared, he would appear in a space that was extremely far away. This was the illusion resulting from extraordinary speed.

In his right hand, the chains were still rustling constantly like a struggling python.

My guess was right! These black chains and the runes are the hidden works arranged by the Lord of the Void. He did not operate it personally... And now, it has become my guide.

When Fang Yuan arrived at the edge of the world, he saw a massive maze.

Space and time shattered while everything changed, and there was the taste of ruins throughout time.

He laughed coldly and used his Creation Great Dao to protect his body. With the chain as a guide, he charged right into it.

At a time like this, his will to kill the Lord of the Void was incomparably strong.

Taking his life while he was injured!

Ignoring their previous hatred, the future fight for benefits in the Spiritual Realm and his secret were reasons enough for Fang Yuan to end his life!

Kaboom!

A space current clashed against his Great Dao, but it was warded off.

Fang Yuan arrived at another void and narrowed his eyes.

“Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, Creation Divine Fist!”

A massive fist shadow appeared and smashed onto a particular spot in the void.

Crack!

Space shattered, and a small half-plane, or rather, an interim paradise emerged.

“Haha... Lord of the Void, it’s been tough finding you!”

Fang Yuan took a step in, and nine radiances shot through the sky and into the void.

At this time, the two Demon Gods shed all pretenses of cordiality.

Moreover, the Lord of the Void was previously nursing his injury in his sleep. With such a big commotion, even a fool would awaken by now.

“It’s you!”

Many low voices came from the ground and turned into a powerful current.

When Fang Yuan saw the scene on the half-plane, he was amazed.

It was like a giant Gu cultivation scene.

There were many distorted souls, and his body was full of mucus that was constantly merging, reforming...

When the words spat out from one of the soul’s mouths, there was immense hatred evident in the eyes.

“Lord of the Void, your injuries... are actually that severe?”

Upon seeing this, Fang Yuan’s expression was slightly disturbed.

Shortly after, he also came to a realization. “It seems like having many forms and inhabiting many worlds isn’t without dangers either.”

If it were any other Demon God, the damage done to their main body due to the impact of the Gun of Extinction on an incarnation would at most be a small scratch.

However, the Lord of the Void had billions of incarnations, and all of them were a main body. Therefore, all of them suffered the implication together.

As the injuries amassed, it became a severe injury.

This was indeed a situation where one’s success and failure were both due to the same factor!
