"It seems there are differences even among the Chaos Devil God."
Han Xuanji thought to himself.
It is even more incomparable to the Devil Ancestor, who may have touched the Hunyuan Wuji. However, the Chaos Devil God have an extremely high starting point, at the very least they are Primordial Hunyuan One Qi, and it is not surprising that the best among them, such as the Devil Ancestor and the Nether Lord, have reached the Hunyuan Taiji or even higher.
Although these Ninth Heavenly Devil are the personal guards of the Devil Ancestor and wield the Great Dao of Illusion, in terms of true power and status, they are clearly far inferior to the ancient Chaos Devil God like the Nether Lord, who wield the origin of death.
However, given the Chaos Devil God's talent, at the very least he would be at the Hunyuan One Qi level, and he would possess a considerable amount of Hunyuan Taiji.
It sounds like what the Devil Ancestor did was similar to what the Dao Ancestor.
No wonder he's called the Devil Ancestor.
In the legends of the Immortal Realm, the Dao Ancestor was the one who spread the Dao, imparting the methods of cultivation to countless beings in the Immortal Realm. When the Immortal Realm was weak, it was the Dao Ancestor who repelled countless Chaos beings.
However, Han Xuanji knew that the Dao Ancestor was not the creator of the Immortal Realm.
After teaching the Heavenly Emperor, the Dao Ancestor left the Immortal Realm and disappeared without a trace, leaving behind countless legends for posterity to spread.
Therefore, as the direct successor of the Dao Ancestor, the Heavenly Emperor quickly gained the recognition of many powerful beings, established the Heavenly Court, and became the orthodox ruler of the Immortal Realm.
What are the Devil Ancestor's plans now that he's come to the Immortal Realm?
Han Xuanji asked directly.
The Chaos is boundless, and there should be many worlds like the Immortal Realm.
This time, however, the Ninth Heavenly Devil hesitated noticeably.
But upon seeing the Dao-Devouring Insect crawling onto his body, he immediately spoke up:
" The Immortal Realm is Wuji World that has given birth to beings of Wuji existence. Even in the Chaos, Wuji World are rare, and most Wuji World have owners. But the Immortal Realm is special..."
Does this mean that the Heavenly Emperor is not the ruler of the Immortal Realm?
Han Xuanji seemed to be deep in thought.
"As the direct successor of the Dao Ancestor, the Heavenly Emperor inherits his lineage and holds the legitimate title of the Immortal Realm. He seems to enjoy great prestige, but he also bears the karma and expectations of the entire Immortal Realm. Suppressing the Devil Ancestor and maintaining the balance of the Heavenly Dao are his duties, but perhaps... all of this is also a kind of constraint."
Han Xuanji's gaze was deep, and he vaguely sensed that the Heavenly Emperor's thoughts might not be so simple.
Transcendence is the ultimate pursuit of every supreme being.
No wonder the Nether Lord dared to vie for the power of reincarnation; it seems the other party's background is not simple either.
Having learned what he needed to know, Han Xuanji stopped pondering and turned his gaze back to the Ninth Heavenly Devil within the Primordial Beginning Banner.
With just a thought, the avatar resembling the Ancestor Fuyun was instantly devoured by the Dao-Devouring Insect, leaving not even ashes behind.
Sensing the complete and utter death of his avatar, the Ninth Heavenly Devil lost all hope, feeling only relief.
As expected, it was Dao-Devouring Insect.
Han Xuanji pondered for a moment, but did not allow the Dao-Devouring Insect to devour the Ninth Heavenly Devil.
But for the time being, I couldn't think of a way to deal with the other party.
Killing him directly seems unnecessary and would only alert the Devil Race. Letting him go is even more impossible; even if Han Xuanji controls the other's essence, he wouldn't feel at ease.
Unless one day he becomes stronger than the Devil Ancestor!
With that in mind, Han Xuanji decided to temporarily imprison the Ninth Heavenly Devil's true form in a corner of the banner.
He then focused his mind on cultivation and stopped paying attention to it.
He planned to accumulate enough simulation attempts to simulate either Han You or Lin Feng.
Perhaps they hold the fortuitous opportunity to quickly reaching the Hunyuan Wuji Realm.
at the same time.
The Devil Master is still waiting for news from the Ninth Heavenly Devil.
Although the Nine Lives Imperial Lord temporarily gave him command of the Devil Ancestor's personal guards, not many of these powerful figures were truly obedient to his orders.
This left him helpless, as these Devil Ancestor's personal guards were all incredibly strong and experienced. Even the Nine Lives Imperial Lord only commanded them by virtue of the Devil Ancestor's authority, let alone him...
This time, it took him a lot of effort to persuade the Ninth Heavenly Devil to take action.
Hopefully, they'll bring back some good news.
The Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.
This place is closer to the Human Race heartland than the Spirit Void Immortal Domain Spirit Void Immortal Domain, and is undoubtedly much stronger.
In recent years, especially, powerful figures have been returning one after another, including many Daluo Golden Immortal and High Antiquity beings.
Lu Fan's implementation of the Human Emperor's decrees and consolidation of power in the Myriad Phenomena Divine Dynasty naturally affected the interests of countless powerful figures.
Among them was the highly senior Patriarch Chixin, whose cultivation had reached the seventh level of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. Confident in his profound cultivation and the extensive network of his followers, he was extremely dissatisfied with Lu Fan, this "young brat," who dared to try and command the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm based solely on luck. He openly questioned the legitimacy of Lu Fan's Human Emperor qualifications at the Human Emperor Assembly, his words full of provocation. His disciples were even more agitated, and the atmosphere in the hall immediately became tense.
Jiang Hao's expression changed, and his aura surged.
Nangong Wenjian's body was also enveloped in an invisible Sword Intent, clearly indicating that he was also enraged.
Lu Fan's expression remained unchanged, and he was about to speak.
Xiao Hong, who had been lazily perched on his shoulder like a mascot, suddenly opened its crimson bird eyes, a look of extreme impatience flashing across its face.
"Noisy!"
It spoke in a human voice, not loud, but clearly drowning out the clamor of the entire room.
The next moment, a terrifying aura that could eclipse the sun and moon and cause the stars to tremble suddenly awakened.
"Uh--!"
A phoenix cry that ripped through the sky resounded throughout the heavens, and behind Lu Fan was a gigantic phantom of a demonic phoenix that blotted out the sun and had a wingspan of countless miles!
The demonic phoenix was entirely crimson, its feathers burning like the Nine Nether Divine Fire, and its pupils like two blood moons, radiating a ferocious aura that devoured all things.
This is a manifestation of the power of the Nine Nether Dao-Devouring Phoenix!
Even though his strength has declined significantly compared to his peak, he is still not someone Daluo Golden Immortal can contend with.
The arrogance on the face of the Ancestor Chixin instantly turned into boundless terror. He felt as insignificant as dust under this aura. His cultivation over tens of thousands of years seemed insignificant in the face of this power.
"Senior... please forgive me..."
Before he could finish pleading, the enormous phantom of the demonic phoenix casually raised a claw that seemed capable of easily crushing stars and gently pressed it down in the direction of the Ancestor Chiyang.
Under the horrified gazes of countless immortals and gods, the renowned Ancestor Chixin, along with the protective immortal energy surrounding him and the natal magic Law Treasure he had summoned, vanished without a trace, as if erased by an eraser!
Utterly annihilated!
Not even a trace of life remained.
A deathly silence.
All the forces that had previously harbored illusions and were eager to make a move have now lost their previous confidence.
She didn't even have the courage to look up at Lu Fan.
Lu Fan remained calm, but he also gained a more direct understanding of Xiao Hong's power.
He surveyed the silent room and spoke calmly:
" The Human Emperor's decree shall take effect immediately. Does anyone have any objections?"
A moment of silence fell over the audience.
Soon, someone stepped forward.
" The Human Emperor has given his decree, Mu Household dares not disobey."
" The Human Emperor has given his decree, Flying Immortal Sect dares not disobey."
Many forces began to pledge their loyalty, daring not to harbor any thought of resistance.
Even if Lu Fan asked them to contribute their Lineage's Secret Method, they probably wouldn't dare disobey.
After this battle, the news that Human Emperor Lu Fan was accompanied by an ancient ferocious bird spread across all forces at an astonishing speed, and no one dared to easily provoke the majesty of this Human Emperor Candidate.
Countless people speculated about which powerful Human Race stood behind Lu Fan.
