Yang Qing had not intended to involve himself in this conflict. With his strength, if he truly wanted to leave, who could stop him?

But the words "Great Yin Divine Cult" made him halt. Was this not the lineage left behind by the Great Yin Human Emperor?

As far as he knew, in later generations, the lineage left behind by the Great Yin Human Emperor had already perished. Even the Human Emperor's bloodline had been severed.

Could it be because of this battle today?

"Do you not know that the Great Yin Divine Cult is the Human Emperor's lineage?" Yang Qing asked in a deep voice.

The Great Yin Human Emperor's achievements eclipsed the ages. He was the first Human Emperor of the Primordial Era and had made outstanding contributions to humanity.

Destroying the Human Emperor's lineage and exterminating the Human Emperor's bloodline was simply unforgivable!

"The Human Emperor has been dead for who knows how many years. So what if he left behind a lineage?"

Yang Qing's expression darkened slightly. Those contemptuous words laid bare all the evil in human nature.

Even though the Great Yin Human Emperor's achievements eclipsed the ages, over the long years, there were still people who had forgotten the Human Emperor's accomplishments.

No! It was not that they had forgotten—they had deliberately turned a blind eye!

The lineage left behind by the Human Emperor possessed not only the imperial scripture created by the Human Emperor, but also the Extreme Dao Imperial Weapon he had left behind.

Beyond that, the Human Emperor's lineage must have flourished for many years, so the treasures it had accumulated were surely considerable.

A man's only crime was possessing a jade!

Once people gave rise to greed, their reverence for the Human Emperor was naturally cast aside. Who would care anymore?

But there were things a man should do, and things he should not!

Yang Qing did not consider himself a gentleman, but he could not turn a blind eye to something like destroying the Human Emperor's lineage and exterminating the Human Emperor's bloodline!

Kill!

Killing intent soared into the heavens. Boundless fury could no longer be suppressed and erupted in that instant, transforming into surging killing intent.

Yang Qing stepped forward and unleashed the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist. Its terrifying fist intent crashed forth like mountains collapsing and seas roaring, suppressing heaven and earth.

Having endured enough, there was no need to endure further. Faced with greed, he chose to stop killing with killing!

He did not know who his opponents were, but that was unimportant. Like a tiger charging into a flock of sheep, he threw a punch that shattered heaven and split the earth.

The force of that punch caused dozens of experts to fall. All of them were crushed to pieces in the void, unable even to leave intact corpses behind.

"What kind of fist is this? How can it be so tyrannical?"

A furious roar rose to the heavens, yet what it contained was not anger, but utter disbelief.

Who could have imagined that a person descending from the sky would be so powerful? With a single strike, he had shattered their confidence.

It was not as though they lacked powerful experts. There were several mighty figures at the Immortal Platform Second Heaven, and even a king of the Immortal Third Heaven Dao Slaying realm stood among them.

Yet the fists of the person before them were simply too tyrannical. That fist intent capable of suppressing heaven and earth filled them with terror.

Yang Qing fought without regard for his life. He now stood on the eighth step of the Immortal Platform Second Heaven, only one step away from the Immortal Platform Third Heaven.

As his fury gathered within the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist, its blazing fist intent was elevated to the extreme, ready to collapse the heavens and destroy the earth.

Even against a Dao-Slaying King of the Immortal Platform Third Heaven, he dared to meet him head-on, without falling into the slightest disadvantage.

The battle shook the heavens and swept across the firmament. Deafening booms rang out without end as earth and sky were dyed blood-red.

No one knew how much time passed before the terrifying fluctuations gradually subsided. Upon the earth, only one figure remained standing proudly alone.

"What a peerless prodigy. Who exactly is this person? Why have I never heard of him?"

The current cult leader of the Great Yin Divine Cult muttered to himself, his face filled with unconcealed shock.

Alone, he had fought hundreds of experts, including mighty figures and even a Dao-Slaying King, and slaughtered them all in a single battle!

What an inconceivable achievement was this?

If word of this battle spread, it would surely shake the entire Ziwei Star Domain and leave countless people dumbfounded.

Yang Qing let out a breath of stale air. The surging killing intent in his heart gradually calmed, and he turned to leave.

He killed one man every ten steps, leaving no trace across a thousand miles!

He was merely a passerby in the Ziwei Star Domain. He would not remain here for long and would soon resume his journey.

Yet just as he was about to depart, the cult leader of the Great Yin Divine Cult stopped him, showering him with praise and repeatedly expressing his gratitude.

From the other man, he learned the full story. After many years, the Great Yin Divine Cult had gradually withered and declined.

Just as he had guessed, some people had grown greedy and wanted to replace it, seizing the Human Emperor's lineage for themselves.

"All things wax and wane. Where there is prosperity, there is decline. To endure in this world, one can only strive unceasingly to grow stronger!" Yang Qing sighed.

This time, he had helped the Great Yin Divine Cult, but after he left, others would inevitably grow greedy once more.

Only by becoming powerful itself could the Great Yin Divine Cult inspire fear and prevent anyone from harboring covetous thoughts.

"It is because I am incompetent. Not only have I failed to recover the Human Emperor Seal, I have also been unable to reverse our decline!"

The cult leader of the Great Yin Divine Cult wore a grief-stricken expression. Its weakness had many causes, but the loss of the Human Emperor Seal was undoubtedly crucial.

If they possessed an Extreme Dao Imperial Weapon, then throughout the entire Ziwei Star Domain, who would dare covet the Great Yin Divine Cult?

Sadly, the Human Emperor Seal had been lost for many years. He had searched for it for years, yet had only obtained scattered fragments of information and lacked any ability to find it.

Then, he looked again at the young man before him. Perhaps this would be the Great Yin Divine Cult's only hope.

With that thought, he no longer hesitated. He took out a jade slip and placed it in the young man's hands.

"What is this?"

Yang Qing accepted the jade slip and paused in surprise. Within it, he could actually sense surging Great Yin sacred power.

In the next instant, countless pieces of information flooded into his mind. It was the complete True Scripture of the Great Yin.

"There is no way to repay this great kindness. I only hope that you can pass down the True Scripture of the Great Yin!"

The cult leader of the Great Yin Divine Cult was filled with sorrow. If not for the young man before him today, the Great Yin Divine Cult would have ceased to exist.

If the Human Emperor's lineage were severed in his hands, how could he face his ancestors after his death?

By giving the True Scripture of the Great Yin to this young man, he hoped to ensure that the Human Emperor's legacy would not be cut off. At the same time, he was taking a gamble.

He was betting that this young man would one day ascend to the pinnacle!

If that day truly came, then even if the Great Yin Divine Cult were destroyed, with this young man still alive, the Human Emperor's lineage could still be rebuilt.

Moreover, he had left information about the Human Emperor Seal inside the jade slip. In the future, there might even be a chance to welcome back his ancestor's Extreme Dao Imperial Weapon.

"Thank you! If the opportunity arises in the future, I will come to the Ziwei Star Domain again!" Yang Qing said.

That was equivalent to making a promise, and it could also be considered his thanks for receiving the True Scripture of the Great Yin.

"You came from beyond this domain? Just like that person back then!" the cult leader of the Great Yin Divine Cult said.

That person back then?

Yang Qing was slightly startled. Under his questioning, the cult leader of the Great Yin Divine Cult began recounting an old tale.

More than two hundred years ago, a young man had come from beyond this domain. In a short time, he had swept through every prodigy in the Ziwei Star Domain.

He had been a dazzling and brilliant figure, with talent beyond compare and rarely seen throughout ancient and modern times. Countless people believed that he would surely attain the Dao in this era.

Yet that man had not remained in the Ziwei Star Domain for long. After leaving behind countless legends, he soon entered the cosmic starry skies.

That man's name was Ji Xukong!
