Chapter 498 I give you face!
Win...win?!
All the living beings in the Profound Tian Continent looked up at the empty sky. Only the Emperor of Heaven stood in the center. He was majestic and powerful. Chaos light enveloped the sky, like a real god, overlooking the vast earth. For a moment, countless people showed ecstasy on their faces and became excited. The feeling of surviving a calamity made them cover their faces and cry.
Some people even shouted the name of the Emperor of Heaven loudly, which attracted countless people to shout, and the name of the Emperor of Heaven resounded throughout the world.
"He's really good at hiding. We've almost shattered the Tianxuan Continent, but he hasn't even shown up~" Yao Yan did not respond to the shouts of the people below. His attention has always been on the realm of the Tianxuan Continent, attempting to force out the Fetus of the Plane through the aftermath of the fight.
If he hadn't left himself some room, the Profound Tian Continent would have really collapsed.
But even so, the fetus in the plane was still shrinking, without even a trace of breath leaking out, as if it didn't exist at all.
You forced me to do this... Yao Yan whispered in his heart. If possible, he really didn't want to destroy the Tianxuan Continent, but the Fetus of the Plane had never shown up. Judging from the signs, even if he used the power of prayer, it would be difficult to truly gain the recognition of the Fetus of the Plane.
Rather than giving the initiative to the Fetus of the Plane, he would rather take the initiative himself!
If you can make your own decisions, why bother with other people’s feelings?
His mind moved.
The entire Tianxuan Continent began to tremble violently, and endless black light rushed up into the sky from the Demon Realm and the Chaos Demon Sea. The light pillars in the sky intertwined with each other, forming an incomparably huge formation, separating the Demon Realm and the Chaos Demon Sea from the Tianxuan Continent.
This movement was so violent that it caused the entire Tianxuan Continent to tremble, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, as if it was heading towards destruction.
Everyone was looking at this scene in horror. Under their gaze, a familiar figure was emerging from the direction of the demon realm. The figure was extremely large, overlooking the world.
The figure of the Underworld Lord was not real, but just a vague illusion. He stared at Yao Yan with cold eyes and said lightly: "Emperor Tian, your strength is indeed very strong. I underestimated you, but I will not give all the plane fetuses of this realm to you!"
"During this period of time, the Underworld has refined the veins of the Demon Realm and the Chaos Demon Sea, and all the creatures there have chosen to join the Underworld. The power of their faith is enough for me to completely control the two places and extract a portion of the essence of the plane's embryo!"
“… Wait until I refine it, and then we’ll fight again in the universe!”
As the words fell, the figure of Mingzun began to gradually fade away. At the same time, the collapse of Tianxuan Continent became more violent. Yao Yan arrived above the Demon Realm in an instant, controlling the Chaos Cauldron to suppress the Demon Sea in the Demon Realm. The terrifying power instantly crushed the formation, but also caused the two places to collapse more rapidly. The veins of Chaos Demon Sea and the Demon Realm could not withstand the fight between the two.
Seeing this scene, Yao Yan frowned, and immediately retracted the Chaos Cauldron that was still pressing down, watching the scene happen with cold eyes.
"Brush~"
They didn't have to wait too long before the figures of Ling Qingzhu, Ying Huanhuan and others appeared through the air. They looked at the land below that was constantly being peeled off from the Tianxuan Continent with shock in their eyes, and then looked at Yao Yan, as if they didn't understand why he didn't take action to stop it.
"If I take action to suppress them forcefully, both the Chaos Demon Sea and the Demon Realm will collapse. The Underworld has been controlling the two places for some time, connecting the formation with the earth veins, and with the strange power of faith, all the creatures in the two places are controlled by the Underworld Lord... Unless the Underworld Lord gives up himself, no one can stop it!" Yao Yan said in a dull voice, as if he had not expected that the Underworld Lord would have such a backup plan.
"Lord Ming wants to forcibly seize the fetus of the plane?" Ling Qingzhu asked.
"His strength is not as good as mine, but I can only destroy his Dharma body and cannot completely wipe it out. As he said, as long as the underworld is not destroyed, he will not die. This person's path of cultivation is extremely strange. It seems that he has transformed his physical body into a body of faith. As long as there are still people in the underworld alive, he can use their power of faith to resurrect again!" Yao Yan said in a serious voice.
There was a pause.
He continued to deceive everyone: "Ming Zun should have set his sights on the Embryo of the Planes from the beginning. If it weren't for me, he would have forcibly ruled the Tianxuan Continent and made all living beings believe in him, so as to refine the Embryo of the Planes. Now that I have interfered with him, he has chosen to settle for the second best and choose to refine a part of the world and forcibly extract the origin of the Embryo of the Planes in this world... I was careless about this matter!"
No one expected that Lord Ming would be so difficult to deal with. Yao Yan had clearly won, but he was still unable to do anything to the opponent. He even had to watch Lord Ming forcibly extract the origin of the plane of this world.
"Is there no other way?" Ying Huanhuan said unwillingly when she heard that.
"There is another way to try, that is to see if the plane fetus of this world is willing to stop all this... The plane fetus is the origin of this realm, it is inherently in control of this world. If it is willing to help me, I can use its power to stop the plan of the Underworld Lord!" Yao Yan said in a deep voice.
"But how can I get it to help you?" Ying Huanhuan frowned and said. Fu Zu also faced this problem back then. The fetus of the plane was unwilling to recognize anyone as its master. Even when Fu Zu burned the reincarnation cycle back then, the fetus of the plane did not react at all.
"The power of prayer! The will of all living beings. If the people of Tianxuan Continent are willing to sincerely stop all this and gather the power of all living beings, they may be able to make the fetus of the plane appear!" Yao Yan said word by word, and then looked at everyone.
He could not force this matter, and could only see whether all living beings were willing to prevent the complete collapse of the Profound Tian Continent.
If all living beings work together, perhaps the fetus of the plane can be manifested and he can be forced to recognize it as the master. If not, the only thing he can do is to divide the Tianxuan Continent, and let Mingzun refine the Demon Realm and the Chaos Demon Sea. He will take the remaining parts and refine them into the Douqi Continent, and take this opportunity to forcibly refine the fetus of the plane.
No matter how things develop, there will only be one ending!
"I will inform everyone of this matter... My lord, I wonder what will happen to the Tianxuan Continent if the plane fetus cannot be successfully summoned?" The Lord of the Primordial World said decisively, but before leaving, his eyes were on Yao Yan.
"It depends on how much of the origin of the plane's fetus that Lord Ming can extract. If it's only a very small part, the impact on the Tianxuan Continent will not be too great. At most, it will cause the vitality of this realm to decline. But if the extracted origin is too large, then this realm is very likely to collapse and go to destruction!" Yao Yan sighed helplessly and said slowly.
“Once Lord Ming obtains the nourishment of the origin of the Plane Embryo, his strength will inevitably transform and he will make further progress in a very short time. By then, there will be a lot of trouble!”
As Yao Yan finished speaking, everyone's heart sank. They all understood what Yao Yan meant. Once Ming Zun's strength changed, Yao Yan might not be able to stop him, and he would definitely come to claim another part of the origin of the plane's fetus until the Tianxuan Continent was completely drained.
"If the power of prayer cannot summon the fetus of the plane, do you have a way to compete with the Lord of the Underworld for the origin of the fetus of the plane?" Ying Huanhuan looked at Yao Yan with her ice-blue eyes and asked.
"Yes, but if so, the Tianxuan Continent will no longer exist. I need to integrate the remaining part into the world I am in, and use the origin of my world to keep your world from being destroyed!" Yao Yan nodded and said.
"If we completely wipe out the Chaos Demon Sea and the Demon Realm, can we stop the Dark Lord..." The Lord of the Great Desolation asked. "Of course we can, but if we do so, billions of lives will also perish. I can't do such a thing." Yao Yan shook his head and said it against his will, but this statement was in line with his glorious image as the Emperor of Heaven.
A person who relies on his strength to wantonly slaughter the weak has no right to call himself the Emperor of Heaven... at least on the surface.
"Then try the power of prayer first. If it doesn't work, do what you think is beneficial to you. Don't worry about Tianxuan Continent and us. You have done enough for this world." Ying Huanhuan looked at Yao Yan and said in a cold voice.
"Don't worry, no matter what happens, I will protect you and the Tianxuan Continent." Yao Yan promised.
"Then I'll leave it to you, sir!" The Lord of Honghuang and others thanked Yao Yan in unison, then turned into streams of light and went downwards, ready to try the method of praying that Yao Yan had mentioned. Now they didn't have much time left, and if Lord Ming really succeeded, it would be a real disaster.
Not only will the Tianxuan Continent be completely destroyed, but even Yao Yan will be threatened by the other party.
As the few people landed in various areas one after another, a majestic spiritual power covered everyone, transmitting everything Yao Yan had just said to everyone, allowing everyone to understand what was happening in the Tianxuan Continent at the moment. In an instant, everyone seemed to understand something, and all the practitioners sat cross-legged, praying to the mysterious fetus of the plane in their hearts.
Yao Yan stood in the void and watched all this. He didn't know whether this method was useful or not. However, according to the description in the original book, this method was the only legitimate way for people outside the world to obtain the fetus of the plane. Apart from this, they could only take some unorthodox ways.
Fortunately, he can take both the right and wrong paths, he has flexible bottom lines and morals, and everything depends on the pros and cons.
As time passed bit by bit, Yao Yan suddenly understood something and looked at Ying Huanhuan beside him. A white spot of light first floated out from the other person's body. It floated out slowly, and then, as if guided, sank into Yao Yan's body.
Following closely behind were Ling Qingzhu, the Lord of the Wilderness and others, and their numbers were increasing. Countless stars emerged from the land, which represented everyone's desire for life and their will to protect their homes.
Yao Yan let these light spots fall on his body. As the number of light spots increased, a strange light cocoon wrapped up Yao Yan. The strange light surged in front of his eyes, as if reacting to somewhere. As this mysterious power completely submerged him, his consciousness seemed to pass through space and came to a strange place.
This is a chaotic world, just like the beginning of the world, with no up or down, and even time has become incredibly slow here.
"The fetus of the plane..." Yao Yan's mind fluctuated for a moment, and then he closed his eyes and began to sense, allowing his consciousness to merge into this world and sense the illusory fetus of the plane. With the protection of the power of prayer, there was no need to worry about this consciousness being assimilated.
Not long after, a familiar yet unfamiliar aura emerged from the depths of the Chaos Sea. It was an extremely mysterious aura that encompassed everything, like the starting point of everything.
As he sensed the other party, a sun suddenly rose from the depths of the Chaos Sea. It was the light of chaos rising, containing endless vitality. That vast vitality shocked Yao Yan's heart. That power was incomparably pure and ancient, as if it was born when the plane was formed, the beginning of everything!
Yao Yan stared at the chaotic light in front of him. He could sense a vast and boundless wave in it. As his eyes were enveloped by the chaotic energy, the chaotic light quickly dissipated, revealing a chaotic light ball several hundred feet in size.
The chaotic light ball was beating slightly like a heart, and with every beat, the entire plane trembled.
When it breathes, the wind and clouds gather, the tides rise and fall, the sun rises and the moon sets, and all living things are born and die...
It is the true embryo of the plane, the origin of the Tianxuan Continent!
"Finally I found you!" Yao Yan whispered in his heart. He had made a lot of plans for today, and even directed a big drama. But now, he just got the qualification to meet her, and it was still unknown whether he could get her recognition.
After all, he is not Muchen, the biological son of the will of the universe.
"You seem to be very wary of me!" Yao Yan did not get closer, because the chaotic light surrounding the Embryo of the Plane was extremely dense. It was its means of self-preservation, which could turn everything into nothingness. The Supreme Power exerted by Ling Qingzhu was not even one billionth of it.
It was transformed from the origin of a world. If it had not lacked independent consciousness, this power alone would be enough to be comparable to a true Heavenly Supreme.
The chaotic light around the Fetus of the Planes became brighter, as if responding to Yao Yan. It knew the truth of everything. Compared with those beings in the Tianxuan Continent who did not know the truth, it knew very well what kind of person Yao Yan was. It knew even more clearly that the Lord of the Underworld and the Emperor of Heaven were originally one, and that it was Yao Yan who did the thing of separating the Chaos Demon Sea and the Demon Realm.
To the Fetus of the Plane, Yao Yan and the Demon Emperor were no different; they were both invaders, and even more dangerous. Now they were even deceiving their "children" in an attempt to gain their recognition as their master. How could they agree?
"If I had a choice, I would also like to be a good person, but do you know what this world is experiencing? The Demon Clan is just a branch of the evil clan from outside the domain. Even looking at the entire evil clan from outside the domain, it is just a small character and not worth mentioning. Now the whole world is experiencing the invasion of the evil clan from outside the domain... I need strength and will do whatever it takes to improve my strength. Only when I am truly strong can I protect the people and the world I want to protect!" Yao Yan did not choose to hide anything. Although the Fetus of the Plane did not have complete intelligence, it could distinguish between good and evil and whether the other party was sincere.
Lies seem too ridiculous in front of the other party.
He continued, "The weak will be bullied, just like now. If I really want to destroy this world, what will you do? You have no independent consciousness, you can only act instinctively. I can completely refine the Tianxuan Continent and use it to gain your power, but I didn't, because I don't want to become a demon controlled by power."
"This world is beautiful, I like it very much. If you are willing to recognize me as your master and let me become the master of this plane, I am willing to protect this world for you. As long as I am here, I will keep this world peaceful forever!"
After finishing his words, Yao Yan looked at the Fetus of the Plane calmly, waiting for its decision. What he had just said were all from the bottom of his heart. If he had a choice, he really wanted to be a good person. Unfortunately, the fantasy world was too dangerous. Without power, he wouldn't even know how he would die.
Unfortunately, Yao Yan's words were undoubtedly in vain. The Fetus of the Plane showed no intention of being convinced and still maintained its powerful chaotic light to resist the approach of Yao Yan's consciousness. From that posture, it was unclear whether it would even listen to Yao Yan's words, let alone hesitation.
Obviously, there are differences between the fetuses of the planes. Not all the fetuses of the planes are willing to listen to what is said. Some of them are really stubborn and won't cry until they see the coffin.
“…I’m giving you face!!” Yao Yan’s eyes turned cold, revealing his true colors.
He is really not suitable to be a good person!!
