Chapter 248 Becoming the Husband of the Empress

Chapter 248 Becoming the Husband of the Empress

As soon as Lu Chengfeng stepped into the fairy light, he felt something was wrong. A terrifying sword light came from nowhere, instantly tearing the world apart and shattering the void in front of him like glass.

"How dare you!" A number of portals suddenly appeared behind the Nine Netherworld Demon Subduer, repeatedly connecting to the Nine Netherworld Hell. A terrifying force was spreading like ocean waves.

"Jiuyou, I'll take this man away. If you want him, come find me. Hahaha!"

Akainu's arrogant and crazy voice spread, Jiuyou's magical power spread, but Lu Chengfeng had already been swept away by the sword light.

"Damn it, this guy is becoming more and more unruly." The Jiuyou Fumo Venerable had an ugly look on his face, but he could do nothing about the other party. Even Taiyi Fumo Tianjun was powerless, let alone him.

……

When Lu Chengfeng came to his senses, he saw a boy with red hair and fangs appearing in front of him. He looked at him with a strange look, as if filled with some unspeakable emotions.

"Little..." Akainu originally wanted to call him kid, but after sensing Lu Chengfeng's normal aura, he suddenly gave up the original title and said in a somewhat stiff tone: "There is a cause and effect between you and me. I will send you to a certain place."

Lu Chengfeng frowned when he heard this. He had not had time to predict the future before, so he did not know that such a change would happen, nor did he know whether it would be good or bad.

But when he used the Great Sun Divine Power, he only saw a hazy mist, "This is..."

This was the first time he had seen such a strange situation since he awakened his innate magical power to predict the future.

"Senior, could you please tell me frankly where exactly do you want me to go? What cause and effect do we have to settle between you and me? I must have never met you before!" Lu Chengfeng's tone began to become cautious, and even his innate magical power to predict the future had lost its effect. This was a situation that would only occur to Chu Tiange.

"Could it be that this matter concerns the great emperor?"

His heart tightened and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Although the person opposite him looked like a virgin, the hideous and hateful spiritual light seemed to devour everything. He felt his whole body was filled with hair standing on end just by standing next to him.

"Humph, if I wanted to harm you, why would I need to go through so much trouble? I could just kill you with one blow." Akainu saw that Lu Chengfeng didn't trust him, and snorted with some disdain, "There are some things you don't need to ask, and I won't tell you even if you ask. Anyway, I won't harm you, you'll know when you go there."

After saying that, he casually slashed the void with his sword. With a flash of the sword, Lu Chengfeng staggered and fell directly into the crack.

After seeing Lu Chengfeng's figure disappear, Akainu's expression was a little complicated, "Master, you asked me to send someone who is related to Yun Cang, who can use the power of time, and who still has your aura on him, to the Nine Heavens Demon Subduing Palace ten thousand years later."

"Because of your words, I will stay in the Demon-Subduing Heavenly Army for ten thousand years."

"Where are you now? Did something really happen?"

There are millions of immortals and gods in the Demon-Subduing Heavenly Army. Although many people know the name of Akainu Shinjun, no one knows that he is not from the human race.

Back then, he was just a puppy that was about to freeze to death in the snow. It was Qingming Tianzun who saved him, taught him, and pointed him in the right direction, turning him from an ordinary dog ​​into a True Lord who was famous throughout the three realms and had great killing power.

He even followed the guidance of Qingming Tianzun, innovated and opened up an unprecedented avenue, which was called Swallowing the Sun.

At the beginning, he could only swallow flames. However, as his cultivation level continued to improve, the flames he could swallow became more and more terrifying. Even the Samadhi True Fire, Glazed Pure Fire, and Nanming Li Fire that could burn the sky could be swallowed by him in one gulp.

Later on, he could even devour light and the void, and with one bite, the sky would collapse and the earth would crack.

As his practice of the Sun-Swallowing Art became more and more profound, Akainu began to devour the Golden Flame of the Sun. Even though the Golden Flame of the Sun was extremely scorching and could even burn a True Immortal to death, it was bearable for him.

He bathed his body in the True Fire of the Sun, and his physique became increasingly tough and terrifying. As long as he bathed in the flames, he was nearly immortal.

Not only can the flames not harm its body, but it can also allow it to recover from its injuries quickly in the flames. Even if it turns into ashes, it can be reborn in the flames.

However, this terrifying physique is only his most basic strength. The terrifying Sun-Swallowing Divine Ability allows him to possess the power to swallow the sky and the earth. Everything he swallows will be transformed into nourishment, allowing him to grow rapidly.

But as his cultivation became more and more advanced, the disadvantages of the Sun-Swallowing Divine Ability became more and more obvious. He still had an increasingly terrifying desire to devour. He wanted to devour lives, wanted to devour divine weapons and sharp blades, wanted to devour the earth and mountains, and even wanted to swallow the sun in the sky in one gulp.

That desire to devour became more and more terrifying along with his magical powers. Akainu was even afraid that one day, that terrible desire to devour would make him eat his own body in one bite.

Qingming Tianzun naturally knew very well the difficulties he was facing, but after leaving a word of advice, he disappeared without a trace.

"Master said that as long as I can find this person, there is hope that I can get rid of the influence of Devouring Desire."

Akainu's body trembled slightly. It had been exactly ten thousand years. He was a True Lord ten thousand years ago, but he had not been able to condense his Dharma image or achieve a breakthrough to great power in these ten thousand years.

It’s not that he can’t do it, but that he can’t and he doesn’t dare.

Once he breaks through to the Dharma Realm, his desire to devour will inevitably surge again. He is likely to be devoured by the desire and become a ferocious beast that only knows how to devour everything.

For a full ten thousand years, he stayed in the Demon-Suppressing Heavenly Army, waiting for the person his master had mentioned while hunting down demons. He swallowed all the demons into his stomach to satisfy his desire to devour.

But after ten thousand years, he had devoured too many demons. Even though most of them were ordinary demons and there were very few six-desire demons, the number of demons he swallowed after countless years of accumulation was an incomparably terrifying number.

The demonic energy could not be erased and gathered in his body. It had now begun to backfire on itself and had even begun to affect and distort his personality and emotions.

"Master, I really can't hold on any longer."

"If... he still can't help me solve it, then I can only kill myself into the underworld..."

Akainu's eyes were ferocious, he understood the consequences if he lost control. By then he would lose all his sanity and become a terrifying beast that only knew how to devour.

He knew how his master felt about the Divine Court, so even if he died, he would never bring harm to the world.

"There are eighteen levels of hell in the netherworld, and each level of hell is a fairyland. This means that eighteen heavenly masters have been buried there. The netherworld has a big secret, and perhaps there is a glimmer of hope for me there."

All kinds of thoughts ran through his mind, and then he took a step forward and landed outside the Jiutian Demon Subduing Palace.

Ever since Venerable Jiutian Fumo participated in the civil strife of the Peacock Clan a thousand years ago, he has disappeared and now it is unknown whether he is alive or dead.

Akainu knew that his master controlled a portion of the power of time and might be able to predict the future, so he made this request.

He sat cross-legged outside the hall, a sharp long sword across his knees, guarding here and not letting anyone disturb him.

His life and future were all given by Qingming Tianzun. To him, Qingming Tianzun was like a teacher and a mother. Therefore, he would definitely do what Qingming Tianzun asked him to do no matter how great the price.

……

When Akainu was guarding outside the palace, Lu Chengfeng, who fell into the Jiutian Demon Subduing Palace, originally thought that he would encounter some crisis, or some opportunity and test.

But the reality was completely different from what he imagined.

When he fell into the hall, he felt a ray of moonlight suddenly burst out from between Luo Suyi's eyebrows in his Sun and Moon Gourd. The moonlight resonated with the talisman of the Nine Heavens Demon Subduing Venerable that was integrated into the gourd, causing the hall to begin to hum, and then a layer of mist directly enveloped the entire hall.

"Hmm? What's going on? Why did the Nine Heavens Demon Subduing Palace suddenly move? Could it be that the Nine Heavens Demon Subduing Venerable has returned?"

The two venerables, Bahuang and Jiuyou, as well as Taiyi Fumo Tianjun who had just been made a little embarrassed by Akainu, all couldn't help but frown. Many incidents had occurred one after another in the military camp recently, making them feel a little uneasy.

However, when their eyes fell on the Jiu Tian Fu Mo Palace, they saw Akainu guarding the entrance of the hall, and the bright sword light following closely behind him.

"Anyone who dares to spy on this place will be killed!"

"He's just a lunatic." The Jiuyou Fumo Venerable's expression was somewhat unpleasant. "A mere True Lord actually dared to act so domineeringly and stir up trouble in the military camp."

He communicated with Taiyi Fumo Tianjun and said in a gloomy tone: "Master, are we just going to watch him act like this?"

Taiyi Fumo Tianjun's eyes flickered with light, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't be anxious. After all, he is the direct disciple of Qingming Tianzun. Now that the Empress has returned, it is not appropriate for us to conflict with him at this juncture."

"But I have communicated with the Divine Court, and there will be a big move soon. The most important thing for you now is to accumulate and build up your foundation to cope with the big changes that are coming."

"Soon the entire Demon Continent will become a battlefield, but this is just the beginning. Soon after, the Eighteen Hells of the Netherworld will be conquered. I'm afraid the other three outer continents will not be peaceful either. The Divine Court will be in chaos. We must have enough strength to be able to gain a foothold in the chaos."

"Master, do you really not think highly of the Empress?" The Nine Nether Father Demon Venerable could not help but ask, "The Empress was able to suppress the Nine Heavens with her own strength, forcing the Four Heavenly Venerables to bow down to her. This kind of strength is simply unparalleled in ancient and modern times. Even if she is the enemy of the Netherworld, she should be able to win, right?"

"You think too simply!" Taiyi Fumo Tianjun shook his head, his eyes were extremely deep, "I know the horror of the empress better than anyone else, but she has too many, too many enemies..."

He seemed a little afraid and did not continue, "Anyway, don't provoke Akainu during this period of time. As long as he does not affect the conquest of Tianmozhou and does not cause a big mess, the rest is up to him."

Venerable Jiuyou Fumo couldn't help but frowned, "But Venerable Jiutian Fumo disappeared for so long, it is very likely that something unexpected happened. The changes in Jiutian Fumo Palace are very likely to be the return of Fu Zhao."

"This is a fourth-grade divine seat. Are we just going to give it up like this?"

Taiyi Fumo Tianjun said: "If we can get rid of Akainu, what does a mere fourth-grade honorable position mean? What's more, all honorable positions come from the Divine Court."

"Without the approval of the Divine Court, do you think you can ascend to the throne of God with just the imperial edict?"

Although Venerable Jiuyou Fumo was still somewhat unwilling, he did not continue to ask questions. After all, he was still inferior to the others in terms of strength.

If he could suppress Akainu, even if the other party had a powerful background, he would never be able to hand over the fourth-grade talisman to him so easily.

"Forget it, let's not bother with him." The Nine Nether Demon Subduing Venerable snorted, directly clicked on the many gods and generals he had summoned, and went to the Heavenly Demon Continent.

……

At this time in the Jiutian Fumo Palace, Lu Chengfeng's expression changed drastically. He watched as a ray of moonlight burst out from between Luo Suyi's eyebrows, resonating with the talisman of the Jiutian Fumo Venerable, and sealing off the entire palace.

The misty fog had an indescribable charm. He even felt that the fog had blocked the power of time. This place seemed to have jumped out of the Three Realms and was not within the Five Elements. Even time had stopped.

What made his heart tremble even more was that a goddess holding a golden scroll in her hand, with a blue sky behind her and protected by the shadows of all gods, just walked out from between Luo Suyi's eyebrows.

Although he had never seen this goddess in person, the moment she appeared, he subconsciously blurted out, "Qingming Tianzun?!"

“Hehe, yes, you still recognize me!” Qingming Tianzun did not have any of the majesty and rigidity of an ancient being. Instead, he was as lively as a young girl.

"You, how come you are here?" Lu Chengfeng suddenly remembered the abnormality of Luo Suyi, the incredible progress of the two people when they were practicing dual cultivation, and the changes in the Sun and Moon Gourd.

He couldn't help but ask, "What is your relationship with Su Yi?"

"I am her, but she is not me." Qing Ming Tianzun said with a smile: "Don't be nervous. Since you are here, I will tell you everything I should know."

Lu Chengfeng calmed himself and glanced at Luo Suyi who had suddenly fallen into a deep sleep. After a careful examination, he found that she seemed to have just fallen asleep and had not suffered any other injuries. He then breathed a sigh of relief.

"If the Heavenly Lord has any instructions, just speak up. As long as I can do it, I will not refuse."

"You sly fellow, don't show off your cleverness in front of me." Qing Ming Tianzun looked at him with a smile, "I don't have any request for you, I just want to tell you one thing."

"Do you really think that the awakening of your magical power of time was just a coincidence?"

Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat, "What does Tianzun mean by this?"

"Don't you find it strange? With your cultivation and strength, you can directly see the future of a Heavenly Emperor? Moreover, it involves a period of 100,000 years, and you can take this opportunity to directly control time."

Qing Ming Tianzun's words stirred up a storm in Lu Chengfeng's heart. This was one of his most fundamental secrets, and he had never mentioned it to anyone. How did the other party know it?

However, Qing Ming Tian Zun only mentioned this and did not continue to speak. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "The reason why you can control the power of time is because you have obtained a part of the authority of the Sun and Moon Heaven."

"Sun and Moon Sky?" Lu Chengfeng's heart moved slightly, and he remembered the scene of Sun and Moon Sky that he saw when he broke through. He could even communicate with Sun and Moon Sky directly now and draw the Xuanhuang Qi from it.

"Yes, the Sun and Moon Heaven is the origin of the Three Realms' time and is the place where yin and yang differentiated at the beginning of the creation of the world. It is the source of time and is the place where all things began."

Qing Ming Tianzun said slowly: "In a certain period of time, as long as you cultivate to the realm of Tianzun, you can touch time, enter the sun and moon heaven, and trace the past and the future."

“Those celestial masters can even communicate with extremely ancient beings or future beings in the Sun and Moon Heaven.”

"But one day, something big happened and everything changed..."

She sighed softly: "The sun and moon in the Sun and Moon Sky actually represent the two original forms of time, the future and the past."

"The big sun is the future, the bright moon is the past."

"But one day, the sun and the moon developed spirituality. They were no longer heartless principles, but became living beings with wisdom and emotions."

"It's just that the Sun and the Moon had a dispute for some reason, and after a great battle, the two sides parted ways."

"The Sun began to try every possible means to swallow up the Moon and gain the Moon's authority. In this way, it could gather all the authority of time in the past and future, control all the authority of the past and future in the Three Realms, and become the most supreme existence in the Three Realms."

"If you can't transcend time, you will become his puppet, allowing him to manipulate and play with you."

Lu Chengfeng's eyes narrowed slightly, "You mean to say that the Heavenly Emperor I saw in the memory of the next 100,000 years is the one who is the one behind the Great Sun Creator?"

Qing Ming Tianzun nodded and said, "Yes, the future you saw is, to some extent, both true and false."

"That was when Da Ri used the power over the future that he held to lock in a certain future. What he had to do was to make this future a reality."

"Turning the future you see into reality?" Lu Chengfeng asked with some doubt.

"Yes, Da Ri has the authority over the future of the three realms. He can lock onto a certain future and make it something that is bound to happen. He can even borrow the power of the future."

Qing Ming Tianzun said: "If it weren't for Yue's obstruction and resistance, everything you saw would have become a reality."

"It was precisely because of Yue's obstruction that he did not succeed completely. He only made the future he targeted become the mainstream, but it still needs to evolve slowly and has not become inevitable."

Lu Chengfeng was a little confused when he heard this. What Qingming Tianzun said involved the mysteries of time, many of which he could not even understand.

Seeing him like this, Qing Ming Tianzun just shook his head and said, "It's actually very simple. Originally, with the power of the future authority, as long as you lock on to a certain future, you can make it destined and real."

"Whatever he wants the Three Realms to be in the future, that's what the future will be like."

"To control the future is to make it change according to one's will. This is the power of future authority."

Lu Chengfeng was stunned when he heard this. How could there be such an incredible power in this world that could decide the future direction of the entire Three Realms by itself, and it was inevitable? How terrifying was this?
All living beings in the three realms are just like playthings, controlled by others.

"It's just that after a great war between Sun and Moon, although Moon lost most of her past authority, she also managed to seize a bit of future authority from Sun."

"Thus, the already predetermined future has undergone some changes."

Lu Chengfeng listened to Qingming Tianzun's explanation and vaguely understood some of the mysteries.

"I see. So, Chu Tiange is actually the reincarnation of that Sun?"

Qing Ming Tianzun shook his head and said, "He can't be considered a reincarnation. He can only be said to be a symbol of the Tao. You will know the truth in the future."

"You just need to understand that as long as Chu Tiange is alive, the future you see will eventually become a reality. Even if the details change slightly, the final result will not change at all."

"To be more precise, as long as Chu Tiange lives until the end of the Divine Court's conquest of the Netherworld, his future will be completely locked in, and there will be no chance of any change."

"At that time, even the past time will be distorted and become what happened in your memory."

"And you will completely disappear from this world."

"Because you don't belong here."

Lu Chengfeng felt goosebumps all over his body when he heard this. "What do you mean by this, Lord?"

"You and Chu Tiange actually come from the same place. The answers to your secrets can all be found in the depths of the netherworld."

Qing Ming Tianzun's expression suddenly became somewhat sad. "If you don't want the past and the future to all become what you have seen, you have to kill Chu Tiange before the Divine Court's conquest of the Netherworld is over."

"Otherwise, everything will be doomed."

“However, although Chu Tiange is not the Sun, he can borrow the power of the Emperor of Heaven 100,000 years in the future.”

"The Emperor of Heaven suppresses the Thirty-Three Heavens. His magical power penetrates the past and the future. No one can be his enemy, let alone kill him."

"So, no one can kill Chu Tiange."

Lu Chengfeng's face twitched slightly, and he couldn't help cursing in his heart, "You clearly told me that only by killing Chu Tiange can the future be changed, but you also told me that no one can kill Chu Tiange, so why did you tell me all this?"

He suppressed his inner complaints and asked doubtfully, "Can't even the Empress kill him?"

"She can't do that either!" Qing Ming Tian Zun said firmly: "In the past and in the future, no one can kill Chu Tiange."

"Although a little bit of Sun's power was lost, the future he had locked on to did not become a reality."

"But he can borrow the power of the future. The Heavenly Emperor has been invincible throughout history. Chu Tiange has the power of the Heavenly Emperor locked on him, so no one can kill him."

Lu Chengfeng was speechless. "Then let's just close our eyes and wait for death. Why are you still telling me all this?"

"The only thing that can kill the Emperor of Heaven is the power of the Emperor of Heaven himself." Qing Ming Tianzun showed a somewhat strange smile on his face, "And if you want to obtain the power of the Emperor of Heaven, besides becoming the Emperor of Heaven, there is another way."

"I think you know this method best."

Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but be startled, and subconsciously thought of his gifted talent, and a thought flashed through his mind.

If he remembered correctly, in his future memories, he saw Chu Tiange becoming the empress's husband.

"Is it possible?!!!" (End of this chapter)
