See You Again in the Future

"No matter how Divine Ability you are, you are no match for the immense power of time."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi lowered the large bell he was carrying, looked at Bai Qiuran who was frozen in place by the gray-white world, and muttered to himself, "This kind of power, unless someone enters the River of Time, even the Heavenly Dao cannot manipulate it at will."

He carried the bell and walked step by step toward Bai Qiuran, while in his other free hand he began to mobilize the terrifying Divine Power within him.

Golden light, Stars, continuously converged on Eastern Emperor Taiyi's palm, condensing into a small Star Core in his hand.

"Minister Bai, your physical body is incredibly resilient. If a Star Core were to be directly detonated inside your skull, I wonder if you could withstand it?"

He thrust out a palm, which began to grow rapidly. When he first made his move, his palm was the size of a Heavenly Gods, but by the time it reached Bai Qiuran's head, it was larger than a mountain range in the Mortal Realm.

The Star Core, brimming with boiling energy, swelled as his palm expanded. Just as he was about to press the Star Core into Bai Qiuran's head through his eye socket, Bai Qiuran, who should have been trapped in an eternal moment by the gray world, suddenly moved.

Before Eastern Emperor Taiyi could react, he reached out and grabbed Eastern Emperor Taiyi's hand. At the same time, while holding Clear Autumn Waters's other hand, he continued to strike. A flash of blue Sword Light, and the blade pierced directly through Eastern Emperor Taiyi's head.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi felt a cold, sharp object pierce his brain from between his eyebrows, and the ensuing excruciating pain made him scream in agony.

"Aaaaaaah!"

He clutched the bloody hole on his forehead and tried desperately to lean back, but Bai Qiuran's other hand had already gripped his wrist tightly.

This thing can actually move?

Unable to break free, Eastern Emperor Taiyi simply severed his arm that Bai Qiuran holding with a single chop. He clutched his severed wrist, which was now only a fragment, and quickly distanced himself from Bai Qiuran.

At the same time, the wounds on his forehead and wrists were healing rapidly, and flesh and bone quickly grew back on his severed wrists, eventually giving way to a new, tiny hand.

"Your Majesty, your healing ability is quite fast."

Bai Qiuran threw the hand that Eastern Emperor Taiyi had severed himself into the lower realm, and then flew towards Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

"Is this also your original Divine Office? Or did you seize it from other Heavenly Gods through some means?"

The torrents of time pressed down on him from all sides, but compared to the pressure he felt when the Heavenly Dao personally manipulated the tides of time on the River of Time, the time restriction that Eastern Emperor Taiyi this moment was extremely easy for him.

However, Bai Qiuran's speed was still somewhat affected, and in the still spacetime, even if Spatial Tunnel was opened, Teleportation was not possible. He could only slowly push through the torrent of time and fly towards Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

"Don't come any closer! You traitor!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi raised his body higher, simultaneously waving his hand to unleash a cloud of Poisonous Miasma and Book of Questions.

The Divine Power contained within this Poisonous Miasma felt very familiar to Bai Qiuran; it was clearly the Divine Office that Jiang Lan had once held.

Bai Qiuran sneered, inhaled all the Poisonous Miasma released by Eastern Emperor Taiyi, and then spat a glob of saliva at him.

The saliva mixed with Bai Qiuran's True Qi allowed it to successfully break free from the Restraint of the torrent of time within the frozen time rift and arrive before Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

The latter raised his arm to block, and the saliva, carrying the Poisonous Miasma that Bai Qiuran had inhaled earlier, landed on the wide sleeves of Eastern Emperor Taiyi's dragon robe, immediately sizzling and corroding, leaving Eastern Emperor Taiyi's sleeves and the arm inside in a mess.

"Damn it! What kind of monster are you?!"

Driven to the brink, Eastern Emperor Taiyi could no longer maintain his image Nine-Five Supreme ruler. Enraged, he shouted at Bai Qiuran, "Did Heavenly Dao send you to destroy me?!"

Bai Qiuran bother to answer him, and simply slowly approached Eastern Emperor Taiyi's direction.

As he flew, he retracted the several arms that had grown from his back using the Fortune Body Forging Technique, and focused on condensing Sword Qi.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi somehow acquired an Authority with Super-Speed Regeneration. To kill him, one must destroy his physical body and soul in an instant, leaving him no chance.

"You traitor!"

Forced to the very top of the sky by Bai Qiuran, Eastern Emperor Taiyi had no way out. He gritted his teeth and raised the Eastern Emperor Bell in his hand.

"You want to kill me? Fine, even if I die, I won't let you get away with it!"

He poured all his divine Divine Power, including the power he obtained from the Heavenly Dao and the Firmament, into the Eastern Emperor Bell. The bronze bell immediately shone with golden light and emitted a deep rumble.

Thump, thump, thump!

As the familiar Bell Chime rang out, Bai Qiuran felt the surrounding space and time begin to distort slightly.

He raised his sword, its blade gleaming with Sword Qi, and then thrust it forward.

A white rainbow streaked across the sky, and at the same time, Eastern Emperor Taiyi raised the great bell.

Say goodbye forever to your loved ones, you traitor!

The Eastern Emperor Bell emitted its loudest sound ever, causing chaos in time and space. A massive rift was torn open in space, swallowing Bai Qiuran and Wisdom Immortal whole.

At the same time, Bai Qiuran's Sword Qi arrived in front of Eastern Emperor Taiyi. This Sword Qi passed through the Eastern Emperor Bell, creating a deep hole in the Divine Artifact, and then entered Eastern Emperor Taiyi's body.

"Gurgle--"

The Sword Qi lingered in Eastern Emperor Taiyi's central dantian, then expanded, and from this Sword Qi suddenly erupted a raging storm of countless Sword Qi, tearing Eastern Emperor Taiyi's body to shreds.

His Divine Power Divine Office erupted from his body at this moment, transforming into countless streams of light that scattered in all directions. The freeze in time was also lifted at this moment, and the whole world witnessed the instant of his explosion.

Golden spots of light appeared at the very top of the sky. Countless Divine Power and Divine Office transformed into shooting stars, slowly tracing their own paths across the sky. Over the years, the Divine Office that had been devoured and Book of Questions by Eastern Emperor Taiyi through various means were all torn apart by Bai Qiuran's Sword Qi, transforming into the most essential rules and returning to the world.

The Heavenly Gods in the Heavenly Palace were terrified and thrown into chaos.

In the valley, the final, thick Tribulation Lightning shattered the entire valley into dust. The massive explosion engulfed the area surrounding the valley, and then the tribulation clouds slowly dissipated.

Minutes later, from beneath the dust-covered ruins of the valley, a man emerged, covered in wounds, dust, and blood.

He stood up, leaning on his sword, looked at the huge spot of light in the sky, and then knelt down three times in front of it.

On the Fusang Divine Tree, Xi He, the Three-Legged Crow, and Jiang Lan also saw the enormous energy ball that erupted in the sky when Eastern Emperor Taiyi died. The Sun Mother and the Sun Gods were stunned, while Jiang Lan wiped her eyes and whispered, "Fool, see you in the future."
