"Whew!"
Within the Immortalizing Ancient Realm, everyone seemed to hear that long exhalation. On the battlefield, Yun Gen, who had just been battered by the Nine-Headed Lion until he coughed up mouthfuls of blood, rose to his feet. The eerie curve of his lips made the Strange World's side feel their hearts sink.
They sensed it: unfamiliar fluctuations of Dao laws, unlike anything they had ever encountered, rippled from Yun Gen. Faint though they were, they sent chills down the spines of the Supremes on both sides.
"Something's wrong! It's like he's become someone else."
In the Heaven Forbidden Zone, the Battle Emperor Fangu immediately saw that some strange transformation seemed to have taken place within Yun Gen. His Primordial Spirit and his Dao laws were both vastly different from before.
"What's going on? Is someone intervening in secret?"
Within the Primordial Ancient Mine, the Golden Ancient Emperor frowned slightly as well. He too had sensed the change in Yun Gen's aura, but it was hard to imagine. Could an outsider's will really descend into a sublimated Forbidden Zone Supreme and act through him?
"Hmm! The scent of an old friend. The passage of ages truly has changed so many. To think that someone as proud as him would cling to life until now."
Beside Yuangeng, the Rebirth Venerable manifested an illusory human figure directly beneath the Heavenly Halberd. The old Supreme stared wide-eyed at Yun Gen for a long time before releasing a deep sigh, lamenting the world's cruelty.
Elsewhere, the Corpse Emperor, Yama, and Prison-Suppressing were also speechless. All of them hailed from the Mythological Era. Compared with youngsters like the Golden Ancient Emperor and the Battle Emperor Fangu, who had attained the Dao in the Primordial Era, they quickly recognized Yun Gen's true nature.
"Hahahaha! It's you!
