These words, spoken with resounding force, represented the decision of the Lord of Kun Court. Runes flowed and condensed into a decree, imprinted in the Great Qian, subtly echoing the rules of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, making him appear like a Celestial Immortal King, residing high in the celestial clouds.

"I misjudged you..." The Great Accomplishment Sacred Body was very disappointed, and there was a sense of decline about him. His body was glowing, and he was about to rush to that area to fight Su Yu.

But the slender, mysterious woman made another move, unleashing the brilliance of several Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon to block him.

Everything was inevitable!

Su Yu recited the ancient Heavenly Venerable's cosmology, his forehead glowing, and thick strands of primordial spirit light transformed into chains, rippling with demonic energy—the most terrifying suppression technique.

One after another, Dao seals transformed into tangible forms, leaping through the Void, each carrying an Immortal of the Foreign Realm radiance and possessing immortal Xian Dao patterns. They originated from different immortal artifacts and were formed by their convergence.

They sealed off the surroundings, and the other five also joined forces to subdue the woman in white and knock her into the Sea of Gods and Demons.

As she fell, the mist in her eyes dissipated slightly, leaving them deep and profound, as if they could see into one's soul.

She looked at the man and woman standing side by side in the sky, the same person as herself.

then...

This stunningly beautiful Empress fell into the vast ocean and sank into oblivion.

The waves surged, creating countless ripples and countless threads coalescing. The ocean that filled the entire universe suddenly receded, and a purplish jade jar slid down and landed in a slender palm.

"It's over..."

Gazing at the engravings on the purple jade Demon Jar, Su Yu murmured to himself, feeling a sense of unreality.

That person is inside...

The monument he had always looked up to since his rebirth has now been climbed by him, though it was fraught with despicable acts.

He stared at the jar in his hand, remaining in that position without changing, a surge of emotions welling up inside him: guilt, sighs, excitement, and exhilaration... He felt as if he had returned to the moment of their first meeting.

The enormous Goddess statue in the secret realm made him look up at it repeatedly. He recognized this ancient ancestor from the bottom of his heart, and at that moment he was filled with respect and reverence.

But later, he became stronger and had some different desires.

"Yes, ever since I became a saint, I've wanted her like a madman... What ant-like babbling, how ugly..."

Su Yu recalled his past self, his expression shifting slightly, a light slowly flowing through him, as if his entire being had been elevated.

He felt immense satisfaction at that moment, as if he were having a wonderful dream.

Suddenly, a furious shout from afar startled the person from their dream, causing the Chaos Lord to change color and become very displeased. He immediately issued an edict to capture the person.

In an instant, the Undying Daoist moved like lightning, wielding the Source Cauldron of All Things, shattering the Void as he descended upon the battlefield. With the help of the mysterious woman, the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body was quickly subdued. His hands and feet were bound with Xian Dao shackles, and his body was sealed by Immortal Source energy. Trapped in the silenced zone, he couldn't even speak, only able to glare angrily at the surrounding darkness, showing no sign of submission...

After an unknown amount of time, the battlefield of the God Wars calmed down, and all the heroes and powerful figures who had fought there disappeared.

In the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, a Desolate Slave wandered aimlessly through a cave. A thousand miles away, a middle-aged Old Madman barged in, wanting to rescue his old friend.

But he arrived too late. A Feathered Green Gold hand tore through the mists of time and snatched away the Tianxuan Saintess. As it departed, this hand grasped the laws of time in this place.

As soon as the reverse flow was activated, the dense fog swept in again. The Old Madman was already Quasi-Emperor, coughed up blood and staggered backward, only able to stare intently at the abyss, his heart filled with immense resentment and regret.

The Old Madman knelt in the demonic land, roared to the sky, and tears streamed down his face.

Six thousand five hundred years have passed. He has failed his ancestor and cannot face himself; he still has not been able to save his junior sister...

Chapter 738 Black Hair Turns to Snow, the White-Haired Lord of Desolation

Outside Kun Court, the ripples of the great battle continued to spread.

The fall of the Lord of Desolation and the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body had a tremendous impact, sending shock and unease throughout the universe. People discussed the strength of Kunlun's power or marveled at the unparalleled strength of the Kun Master and the Lord of Desolation. Two emperors from one family, possessing immortal artifacts—this was truly a glorious and dazzling achievement, reaching the pinnacle of power.

Many praised Kun Master for pacifying the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land for the sake of all living beings, saying that his merits surpassed those of past Ancient Emperor and even overshadowed the Great Emperor of the Desolate Antiquity.

Among the seven forbidden zones, the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land is equally dark and is not considered a pure land in the eyes of the world.

Although the Lord of Desolation never instigated Dark Turmoil, she destroyed an imperial-level divine dynasty, and in her Lifetime of attaining enlightenment, she committed countless atrocities. In another timeline, she quelled the monstrous bloodshed caused by the Road to Immortality and was revered by the world. But in this Lifetime, with Su Yu's intervention, she meditates in her divine acupoints and rarely ventures out into the outside world. In the eyes of countless beings, she is no different from the Supreme of other forbidden zones.

Therefore, the destruction of the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land was seen by all races in the universe as the removal of a major cancer, and one less forbidden zone that could potentially trigger Dark Turmoil was eliminated.

Within Kunlun, numerous deities coexist, rivaling the Ancient Heavenly Court of the late mythological period. They truly Reign Over All Under Heaven, with all of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths submitting to them, and even forbidden zones refusing to provoke or challenge their majesty.

Kun Master is supreme!

Countless people shouted in unison, as if it were a tsunami, shaking the world.

Suppressing the Netherworld, slaughtering Ancient Supreme, sweeping through Life Forbidden Zone, the sharpness of the sword silenced even the Supreme.

This is the rise of a Heavenly Emperor. Su Yu has established his reputation with his illustrious achievements, destroying the four forbidden zones: the Undying Mountain, the Reincarnation Sea, the Divine Ruins, Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, thus creating a legend through the ages...

Amidst the chaos of the mortal world, deep within the secret realm of the Great Luo Heavenly Medicine, Su Yu sat alone in a secluded bamboo grove, his eyes calm and profound, reflecting the figure of a woman.

Lord of Desolation, or perhaps more accurately, the Ruthless Great Emperor.

She sat cross-legged on a futon made from Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree, seemingly asleep, her eyes closed. Unaffected by the surrounding Chaos Domain, she resembled a jade statue, ethereal and untouched by cause and effect. Her beauty was so ethereal and serene that it seemed unreal. Though she was right before one's eyes, it felt as if one were in the Immortal Realm, as if she did not belong to this universe.

After that great battle, her body was bathed in the blood of the Undying Immortal Phoenix and received excellent nourishment. Now, her exposed neck is long and fair, with a faint red glow, like the finest jade. Beneath her skin, layers of dark red threads overlap, like a fine net, covering the woman's limbs and bones.

At the same time, on that fair forehead, three streams of Immortal Qi condensed into a Great Dao Lock, fixing this supreme immortal body in place.

All of this happened quietly, with only the mist flowing, the silence profound, the bamboo shadows swaying, carrying dappled sunlight.

Not far away, rows of Divine Medicine swayed and exuded fragrance, their vibrant reds and purples bursting forth with the essence of Life, making the place resemble a divine mirror.

As for the Elixir of Immortal Medicine, the medicinal spirit takes form, but the connection with the medicine's body is not severed. Just like the Purple Qilin, the nine drops of umbilical cord blood left at its birth, combined with the Immortal Qi of Fortune, gave birth to the Qilin Divine Medicine anew. Under the nourishment of Su Yu's three streams of immortal Immortal Qi, the fragments of the Great Dao at the deepest part of the new medicine revived, and it had traces of the essence of immortal Immortal Elixir, no less than the previous Immortal Medicine.

Furthermore, after all the medicinal spirits leave this place, they must return every so often to nourish the new medicine with their original essence and blood, preventing the Divine Medicine from falling in grade—this is the covenant of Immortal Elixir, and the process will last a lifetime.

The Nine Marvels Immortal Medicine was also transplanted here, landing in the Immortal Spring Eye. Its Ruyu -like branches and leaves stretched out, scattering various divine radiances, making it look very beautiful as it approached the woman in white.

The two sat facing each other for nine days and nine nights.

Finally, Su Yu bowed forward in a gesture of respect, then stood up and walked outside.

Before leaving, he rolled up his sleeves and left behind nine Dream Dao Fruit, which were almost all of his remaining stock.

The Dream Dao Fruit, with its five vibrant colors—crimson, pale pink, brilliant purple, bluish-white, and more—resembles grapes or longans, translucent and crystalline. Now, it rests in a small bronze cauldron, emitting a fragrant and rich aroma. Threads of Dream Dao Laws swirl and dance within the cauldron, making the space inside appear more ethereal.

"If you want to see that person, you need to reshape the Lunhui, which is extremely difficult. Reversing life and death, overturning time, even Immortal King cannot do it... Does the Great Emperor know? Above the ultimate path is the Immortal, and between an Immortal and Immortal King, there is a huge step." Su Yu whispered.

Only his voice echoed in the secret realm. The misty fog obscured the woman's ethereal beauty, making her appear even more otherworldly.

Su Yu shook his head.

Amidst a sigh, he vanished into the Chaos mist, without causing the slightest offense.

But the person remained unresponsive...

In the Big Dipper, Eastern Wasteland, Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, a Chaos Immortal Palace spans the sky, resembling a divine sun cast in Light Immortal Gold, exuding overwhelming power.

In the deepest part of the Immortal Palace, the goddess Empress was studying the ancient scriptures collected by Kun Court.

After that person left, she took over this place, becoming the master of this forbidden area and the new Lord of Desolation...

After the great battle ended, as time passed, the Dao Fruit at the center of the Dao Flower above her head began to change. The most striking change was the dissipation of gray mist, which was the sublimation of the Dao of Time that filled the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land. This was the key to her and the Ruthless Great Emperor's ability to remain in the past for so long.

Now that the gray mist has dissipated, she has also lost that great power, and the laws and the Great Dao have fallen. Her current state is very similar to that of the Ruthless Great Emperor in her Lifetime years, a female Heavenly Emperor with Chaos Body.

Correspondingly, her lifespan was reduced. In less than a month, twenty-one marks were drawn on her Life Wheel, equivalent to 21,000 years, and she entered the twilight of her life.

The Chaos Body created by the Devouring Heaven Demon Art has flaws, and its lifespan is shorter than that of Wang Bo from another timeline.

In other words, she had over a thousand years of life left. But she had no regrets.

In this respect, she is very similar to the Immortal Ascension Cauldron Artifact Spirit; even at a great cost, she is determined to break free from its constraints and does not want to live as a mere artifact...

In her unwavering determination, she was no different from the White-Clad Empress.

The latter was fixated on her deceased brother, while she wanted to break free and live like a living being.

This was evident when Su Yu invited her to take charge of the Great Luo Heaven; she refused the offers from the Undying Mountain, the Reincarnation Sea, the Divine Ruins, and the Kunlun Immortal Land. Her intentions were self-evident.

After understanding the other party's intentions, Su Yu did not force the issue. Since the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land had not been taken away, the divine body entered and took over the place.

The forbidden zone remains, but the Immortal Palace is gone. The bronze palace cannot be separated; it is now bound to the Ruthless One. In its place is Su Yu's Chaos Immortal Palace, which is now almost a divine artifact.

The Immortal Palace contained a vast collection of ancient scriptures and profound techniques, which would be invaluable to the newly born Lord of Desolation. She did not refuse their kindness and settled there.

In fact, everyone discovered the reverse flow of Life Wheel quite early and wanted to solve this problem. Su Yu and Shi Ming worked together, using the Heaven-reaching Nether Treasure to freeze the current Lord of Desolation, bombarding the Beginningless Bell, and cleansing the mortal world of time, trying to freeze a moment in time, but ultimately failed.

This involves the laws governing the Immortal Path in the Mortal World, which cannot be resolved by a few supreme beings relying on immortal artifacts.

Later, the True Phoenix Hall sent the Dao Palace to deliver the Youth-Preserving Immortal Flower, but unexpectedly, the beauty showed signs of fading with age, and was refused entry...

"Does that mean you don't want to please me, and therefore you refuse to accept it?"

At the end of the temple, Su Yu appeared. He looked at the woman with white hair, whose age could no longer be concealed, and sighed silently once more.

Both the person before him and the one from the Great Luo Heaven were frustrating, belonging to the most stubborn among the seven emotions and six desires. However, compared to the woman in white, the new Lord of Desolation before him was acceptable; they could communicate with each other. Although he appeared cold, Su Yu could sense that he had left his mark on the other party's heart.

This is completely different from the cold, lifeless stone of Kunlun!

"Were we turned away there?"

A heavenly sound rang out. The white-haired Lord of Desolation didn't even raise his head, flipping through the Emperor Zun's works. Beside him were two ancient books: the True Phoenix Precious Technique and the Fourth Generation Indestructible Heavenly Art (the final perfected technique of the Ruthless Great Emperor ), each using Phoenix Blood Red Gold and Feathered Green Gold as their respective carriers. With the successive fall of the Forbidden Zone Supreme and Kun Court ruling the Nine Heavens, Su Yu did not lack Supreme Immortal Gold Immortal Gold, so he could use it to forge books.

During this time, she has been studying the path of transformation, not only these three ancient scriptures, but also the scriptures of the Demon Emperor and the Netherworld Venerable Tribulation-Transcending Heavenly Art of the Underworld Lord.

The other party was rude and unworthy of a seat, and made such sarcastic remarks, which was really excessive. However, Su Yu was not angry. He pointed his finger, and a futon with pure energy appeared in front of him. He sat down calmly and looked very at ease.

Anyway, this Immortal Palace belongs to him, so going back here is the same as going back to the Great Luo Heaven —it's all about going home.

The woman remained noncommittal, instead studying the Immortal Gold book refined from Phoenix Blood Red Gold. Crimson, blood-red mist flowed around her, making her appear like a crimson-gold goddess. Her skin was unusually rosy, and her black clothes also shimmered with a dark red luster, exuding a breathtaking magic.

"I've been reflecting on the True Phoenix Precious Technique these past few days, and I've come here specifically to give you a lecture." He said calmly, with Chaos energy flowing slowly around him, echoing in all directions. The aura of a great cultivator in the Dharma Ending was vividly portrayed, making him seem like a grandmaster of an Immortal Gate.

The woman raised an eyebrow, her long, silvery-white hair cascading down, revealing a slightly weathered, ethereal face. Her skin was still as white as snow, but there were faint black marks on her forehead, spots formed by the accumulation of aging substances.

Her eyes were empty and deep, and a faint suspicion lingered in her heart. She almost instantly refuted Su Yu's statement.

Of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, no one understands the person before her better than she does.

She had watched the other party grow up from the beginning. The act of plundering the Holy Maiden was despicable. Once someone was captured, they would fight against them at the same level, and if they lost, they would be sold into slavery.

It seems fair on the surface, but in reality, it's just a womanizer in the mortal world. This womanizer, however, presents himself very well, using various premonitions to lure naive young girls, forcibly taking their goods and then showering them with kindness and favors. First the stick, then the carrot; if the carrot doesn't work, he resorts to the stick...

Recalling the night she awakened and heard the cries of the Innate Dao Embryo, a ripple appeared in the woman's eyes again. She calmly said, "Do you know? She devoured seventy-eight people like you back then, including many holy sons and divine sons of holy lands and great sects."

Su Yu opened his mouth, then saw the dragon and phoenix mark in the white-haired Lord of Desolation's eyes, and was speechless.
