Jiang Jie had been standing solemnly before, like a statue.

At this time, he nodded and leaned forward slightly: "But is it an order from His Majesty?"

"The Emperor's decree."

Jiang Jie raised his hands and clasped them in front of his chest: "As you command!"

As soon as this voice came out, the whole city shook suddenly. The mirror-like ground and the magnificent dome in front of Li Wuxiang's eyes immediately began to fade, as if the waves of time were surging and washing away everything around. The giant pillars collapsed and the grass and trees spread, as if it was about to become what it was in You Jiuyuan at the beginning.

Li Ye raised his hand and tapped lightly on the Donghuang Seal. The Ye capital shook for the second time. The torrent of time seemed to roll back, and figures appeared in the hall - standing solemnly in the halls on both sides of the throne, their faces condensed from many overlapping shadows, and appeared in the blink of an eye.

These humanoids were of different heights and appearances. The ones that were particularly tall and looked like giants were not actually human, but had animal heads and human bodies. They looked like demon kings. The rest of the humans were wearing court robes and ceremonial armor, and looked like officials in the court.

Li Wuxiang immediately realized that this might be the scene when Li Ye was still the emperor and hundreds of officials were paying homage in the court!
As expected, as soon as these figures appeared, a deafening shout immediately broke out in the originally silent hall - "Long live! Long live! Long, long live!"

Li Wuxiang really had no way of understanding the means by which the two great gods - Donghuang Taiyi and Dutian Siming - were fighting at this time, but he guessed that they were fighting over destiny and power.

At this moment, as soon as he heard the sound of worship that was like a landslide and tsunami, a layer of misty golden light, similar to that of Jiang Jie, immediately appeared above his Yin spirit possessed by Li Ye.

The golden light condensed into his imperial crown, and he felt a dazzling spot of light appearing on his head. He knew without counting that it must be the crown worn by the emperor - nine beads and twelve tassels in front and behind, as if the light of all the stars in the world were gathered there, making the star map in the golden light behind Jiang Jie pale in comparison!
At this time, all the officials in the palace bowed again: "Long live! Long live! Long, long live!"

Li Wuxiang only felt that he was emitting a golden light, which made the world between heaven and earth brilliant. He was still sitting upright on the throne, but his vision seemed to rise to a very high place along with the golden light, looking down at the world, holding the universe in his hands, and controlling everything!
If it were an ordinary person, this would just be a feeling. But now he could feel that this feeling had turned into some kind of substance - Jiang Jie's figure became smaller and smaller in his mind. Although he still looked like a god, he was like an ant, as if he could easily crush him to death by raising his hand and exerting his authority.

Not only Jiang Jie...but also...but also anyone in this world!
Anyone is an ant in front of me!
An overwhelming sense of authority burst out in Li Wuxiang's heart, filling his spirit and occupying his mind, making him feel clear-minded and thoughtful, eliminating all previous worries, fears, unhappiness, and even - sympathy!
There is actually nothing in this world that can make me feel embarrassed. Apart from this kind of power and authority, there is nothing in this world that I can care about. Now, I am -

"You should calm down."

He suddenly heard Li Ye's voice.

Still as calm as before, it was like a piece of brittle ice piercing his heart, instantly calming him down.

"This kind of authority is not something you can control with your current mindset. Don't let yourself get carried away."

Li Wuxiang could feel that when Li Ye said these two sentences, he was still in a fierce battle that he could not understand - in a place he could not see or perceive, he was fighting with Jiang Jie.

So his mind suddenly returned to his body from a very high distance. It was at this moment that he suddenly understood what Li Ye had said to him before -

"Jiang Jie is not an evil person."

He felt that he was kind and empathetic compared to many people in this world, but when he came into contact with Li Ye's authority just now, the feeling just now...

Jiang Jie and Li Ye, are they both in this feeling all the time, without losing their original heart?

Or at least not too lost!

At this time, he shouted again: "Capture this man!"

All the civil and military officials in the hall immediately rushed towards Jiang Jie, but Jiang Jie, like Li Ye, remained motionless, only raised his hand and grabbed in the air -

Li Wuxiang felt as if he had grabbed something from his body... It was his left eye socket, which was slightly swollen...

——It was the "Life and Death Order" that was still hidden in the body on the Great Tribulation Mountain!
Then Jiang Jie opened his mouth and shouted, "Sentenced to death!"

The first figure immediately disappeared into smoke and turned into a light mist.

Jiang Jie shouted again: "Sentence to live!"

The originally diffuse light mist suddenly converged, turning from bright to dark, and turned into a dark ball of deathly aura, and then condensed again - it was the appearance of the Sword Sect's dead soul that Li Wuxiang had seen in the deathly aura in the lower world of You Jiuyuan.

When the ghost reappeared, it immediately turned around and rushed towards its original colleagues - it had actually been used by Jiang Jie!
An idea came to Li Wuxiang's mind - it should have come from Li Ye - first sentence him to death and let him go to the netherworld. Once he went to the netherworld, he would be in the seventh Yama Lord's dojo, and then he would be summoned out and immediately become his person!

And what was lost was not just this one person, but also the almost imperceptible but still sensed authority of Donghuang Taiyi.

At this time, Jiang Jie had already been fighting with the nearly 100 figures. At first, it was a golden light mixed with wisps of black, and then it became a dark gold. When Jiang Jie shouted a few more "death sentences", more than half of the civil and military officials in the hall had become ghosts used by him, and death energy was exuding around them, making the golden light of the hall fade and the splendor dim, as if it was about to become a place of death in the underworld.

At this time, Li Ye raised his hand and slapped the Donghuang Seal on the top of the throne, shouting, "Come!"

He immediately slapped the Donghuang Seal down more than three feet, sinking deeply into it. But this sinking was like sinking into time and space - the hall that was originally invaded by the netherworld death energy was once again shining brightly, and many illusions were superimposed - hundreds of golden-armored soldiers reappeared in the hall and rushed towards Jiang Jie again.

Li Wuxiang's mind was driven deep into the Yin Shen by Li Ye at this time, as if he was just sitting and watching, but he also vaguely knew what method Li Ye was using -

As he said before, the old capital of the Ye Dynasty was preserved by successive generations of sword sect members and formed a world of its own. So Li Ye was now using the East Emperor Seal to travel through time and space and summoned out his former subordinates who had appeared in this hall over the past three thousand years to fight with Jiang Jie.

At this moment, the two of them were already engaged in a fierce battle. Li Ye had activated the Eastern Emperor Seal several times, and the space-time of Nether Nine Abyss was penetrated layer by layer. More and more subordinates were summoned, and Li Wuxiang felt that these people looked more and more familiar. The clothes and armor of the dead souls he saw in the dead air outside Nether Nine Abyss that day were of different styles, as if they were mixed together from ancient times to the present...

Were they released just because of the current fight between the two?
But…if according to what Li Ye said, what was going to happen was already predetermined, then wouldn’t it mean that all the people summoned by Li Ye were eventually killed by Jiang Jie, sentenced to death or life, and became his people? That’s why there were those ghosts that I saw that day! [Note 1]

If one person is missing, Li Ye's authority will be weakened. Then -

The more fiercely those two fought, the weaker Li Ye's power became and the stronger Jiang Jie's power became!
The facts seemed to be just as he thought - he felt that only a quarter of an hour had passed, and the hall became dimmer and dimmer, and the scorching sun above seemed to be obscured by the dark deathly aura.

The East Emperor Seal on the end of the throne had disappeared - every time Li Ye used the seal and broke through a layer of time and space, the East Emperor Seal sank a little deeper. Now the place where it was originally located has become a dark hole, and only the faint green light of the seal can be heard from the hole...

A thought popped up in Li Wuxiang's mind - it turned out that the East Emperor Seal was suppressed to the lower realm of Youjiuyuan in this way!
Even the throne he sat on seemed to be decaying. It began to crack, grow moss-covered, and smoke-filled, as if it were gradually disintegrating.

The sense of authority he had before was compressed. Li Wuxiang felt that he had changed from the Lord of the Extreme to a mortal, and it seemed that he was about to change from a mortal to an ant - an ant under the oppression of the dark and distant authority of the Lord of Heaven!

——Li Ye just said that he could only fight Jiang Jie head-on here... Is he going to be defeated so soon! ?
At this moment, he suddenly heard Li Ye say in his mind: "I will send you away."

"I am now using your Yin Spirit to fight Jiang Jie, not only here, but also elsewhere - Jiang Jie has also come to find you, and he wants to wipe you out as well."

Walk? where to?
"...No, you're going to give up so soon!?"

Before he finished speaking, he felt dazed again.

This time he had adapted to it, so when he saw the stone wall around him, he didn't feel very surprised, but just felt a little emotional.

Stone chamber.

stove.

Now, he was in the place where he first woke up in this world, and heard—

The dripping sound of the clepsydra was heard six times. I... no, Taiyi... Donghuang Taiyi... was invited by Zhao Kui at this time and in this way!

This is how the external evil came! ?
No, what about me? Where am I at this moment? Where did I come from at this moment, sitting by the bed, slowly putting on the tattered dragon robe? Did I just come from where I came from?

These thoughts flashed through his mind quickly and were suppressed. Now he was thinking of another person -

Zhao Xi!

Is it possible this time?

"Don't do anything. Just wait." He heard Li Ye's voice.

Is he here too?

"Aren't you going to send me away? Why are you here?"

"I'm there, here, and somewhere else." Li Ye seemed to smile, "Even Yang Shen can incarnate outside his body, so why can't I, Donghuang Taiyi, incarnate?"

When Li Ye said he was going to send him away, his voice was calm, but it was hard to hide his panic and anxiety. However, listening to him again, he seemed to be calm again. This reminded Li Wuxiang of what he said when he came into his body on the Great Tribulation Mountain - "Oh, you and I have fallen into a trap."

Almost the same calm tone.

His panic before was fake... He never seemed to really panic- "Are you going to deal with Jiang Jie here again?"

"Yes. This is where you first appeared in this world. Jiang Jie's magical power couldn't calculate where you came from, and he could only calculate to here at most. If he wiped you out here, he would have taken away the Yin Shen foundation that I had to fight him with in Yedu - so we are waiting for him here."

"…But you can't beat him over there."

"This is also a world of its own, and there are people to help. And there's no need to defeat him here, just let him suffer a loss."

"This place? It's a world of its own?" These words really surprised Li Wuxiang.

Now he knew the value of the phrase "self-contained world". On the Great Tribulation Mountain, the enchantment created with treasures like the Star Chariot was called "self-contained world". In the Nether Nine Abyss, the ancient capital of the Ye Dynasty preserved by generations of swordsmen was also called "self-contained world". It can be seen that this kind of "self-contained world" either requires extremely precious magic weapons or extremely long efforts. And this is the small cave created by Zhao Kui with that stepping stone, and it is worthy of "self-contained world"! ?

As if he had guessed what he was thinking, Li Ye said, "You can use this thing in your hand to break the illusion of Ranshan, but you won't use it often afterwards."

"…Because this thing can't be used in the illusion."

"So you think it is not as good as the illusion of Ranshan, and your magical powers are suppressed by the illusion?"

"...or is it?"

"Have you ever thought that the illusion is too small, and this thing can't be unfolded in the illusion, so it can't be used?" Li Ye paused, "This is actually the Star Raft, and the one on the Great Tribulation Mountain is also. But the two together can be considered the real Star Raft."

Li Wuxiang felt his mind was clear.

That’s right… the real founder of the Ranshan Sect is the Ninth Young Master, and the Xingcha also belongs to the Ninth Young Master… the Ninth Young Master left this thing in the Ranshan Sect!

"If we deal with Jiang Jie here...we should use my body now? There is Zhao Xi, Li Ye, up there. I want to save her. It is much more convenient for us to use this body now than to use him!"

"Why do you want to save her?"

Why? Why? But the next moment, Li Wuxiang sighed in his heart. He still remembered the feeling of treating the common people as ants just now... Maybe that's why Li Ye wanted to ask why, not to test him.

"I feel sorry for her."

Li Ye was silent for a moment: "That's a reason. But you can't get up. The original owner of this body is still here - do you remember?"

I remember. When he first came here, his mind was blurry and he almost went crazy, then he slowly came to his senses... Is this the process of gradually taking over another's body? And the time when he could truly sense the existence of the external evil was when he had mastered the first level of Guang Chanzi's "Fa Zhen Zhong".

The reason why Li Ye was able to possess his body was after he had achieved golden elixir - once the golden elixir was achieved, there was a seed of vitality in his body, which was a brand-new form of life, and could accommodate the arrival of external evil in this world... In this way, the same principle applies to "emanating the true seed" or "the Nine Palaces True Vacuum".

"I understand."

"Okay, let's wait here for Jiang Jie to come. Guess how he will come?"

Li Ye's tone sounded more and more relaxed, and he even asked back questions and said "guess".

Li Wuxiang thought for a moment and said, "Zhao Kui. He wants to become an immortal and cultivate Taiyi... A cultivator with this kind of mind is a beacon that attracts external evil."

"That's right. So just watch and don't do anything. Wait until you can cultivate the true seed yourself."

"Li Ye...why don't you use yourself?"

"Ok?"

"For example, when you were in the old capital of Ye Dynasty just now, if you had possessed your former self, wouldn't you be even stronger?"

"Yes. But do you remember how Jiang Jie died?"

"he……"

Li Ye said that the leader Jiang in You Jiu Yuan had already become a Yang God and realized the origin, so "there is no two suns in the sky". When the God of Destiny came, the leader Jiang would have no choice but to die.

that--

Li Ye said calmly: "It's not just this time. It's happened many times in the past three thousand years."

Li Wuxiang slowly let out a sigh of relief, not knowing what to say.

The "many times" that Li Ye mentioned... how many times? So many that he had completely wiped out his own origin at every critical time and place, and now he had to use his own?
How many times has he failed in these three thousand years?

How could he still...how could he still have the energy to continue fighting! ?
"Humans are like this. As long as there is a spark of fire, life will continue forever."
