Chapter 1259: A Change of Era
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
Eternal Night Primogenitor and Extreme Night Primogenitor were both standing side by side. Their capes were billowing with the wind as both of them watched the origin of that terrifying disturbance––it caused a blast in the membrane wall of the Origin World. From this pitch black hole flew out a white-robed figure. He held on to the Azure River Spear with one hand, and the Death Emperor Crown in another. That unseen killing aura could be felt by many others even if they were separated by a huge distance.
“You are lucky, Eternal Night, for giving in slightly before this.” Extreme Night Primogenitor chuckled, “Otherwise, the next unparalleled existence to die could very well be you after Undying Underworld Emperor.”
“Right.” Eternal Night Primogenitor was also watching the origin of disturbance. His eyes were faintly glowing in golden light, “Fortunately I gave in. I had a premonition that the moment he broke through to the final realm, even if it was in the Dao of Void, he would be able to suppress even Undying Underworld Emperor. Before his soul technique, I would become even weaker. Even if I were in my Eternal Night City, I might still lose my life. But the outcome has far surpassed my imagination! Even Undying Underworld Emperor was killed so easily.”
Even though the entire process took several twists and turns, the previous number one cultivator of Realm Heart Great Land died so cleanly!
“Underworld Emperor is already very formidable. In the end, he showed all kinds of techniques, many of which I could not even see through. I even felt a huge threat from them.” Extreme Night Primogenitor laughed, “It’s just that his techniques were futile against Monarch Flying Snow.”
“It seems that from now on, there is an additional spear over our heads. If we were to violate our promises, we would be killed.” Eternal Night Primogenitor laughed at himself.
They were unparalleled existence.
Including them and many other ordinary final realm existences were originally free and unfettered. Some times, they could ‘do things as they wished’. So what if they massacred a city? So what if they sacrificed a city for blood? They were not afraid of the consequences at all since nobody could threaten their lives! Even the supreme ‘Yuan’ would not do anything to these ants as long as they did not affect the balance of life reproduction in Realm Heart Great Land.
But now, they dared not ‘do things as they wished’.
It was useless even if they hid themselves in their territories! The bigger and higher graded the arrays they construct in their ‘territories’, the greater the price! And for unparalleled existences to increase their strength further, it would take an extravagant price! For instance, the territories that Emperor Summer and Eternal Night Primogenitor had were quite formidable, yet the boost to their strength was not that great precisely because they could not construct sufficiently peak arrays without sparing any thoughts to the resources they had.
Those who were weaker would instead become greatly strengthened with arrays in their territories.
Ordinary final realm cultivators for instance, were weaker when they did not own any supreme-graded secret treasures. And thus, the arrays in their territories would boost their strength greater–they would be able to fight against ‘unparalleled existences’ in their territories.
As for Xue Ying!
Reaching his level, the price of constructing more appropriate arrays for his current realm would be too high. It was even harder to find materials that could withstand the power from the seventh strike of his secret impartation! Undying Underworld Emperor was helpless too. If he chose not to stint on constructing arrays in his territory, he might be able to unleash a strength equivalent to igniting his Heart Blood!
Furthermore, he could spend a huge price to fortify his territory further! Even if he could achieve a strength equivalent to igniting his Heart Blood, he still had to flee when Xue Ying sent a huge number of ‘World Masters’ to attack him!
“He is powerful!”
“His soul techniques are incredibly mysterious.”
“He can even summon a large number of World Masters easily.”
Unparalleled existences felt reverence and fear.
This frighteningly outstanding ‘Monarch Flying Snow’ was absolutely the strongest final realm cultivator with the greatest intimidation in history.
“After killing Underworld Emperor, he even chose to blast the membrane wall of the Origin World after coming back, creating a huge disturbance while holding on to that Death Emperor Crown. It seems he plans on intimidating the world. From now on, the Realm Heart Great Land is going to be different!” Many experts could deduce that from what Xue Ying chose to do as he brought the Death Emperor Crown back.
******
And that was the truth.
Other than the huge devils who chose to lower their heads while promising not to engage in any vicious acts, the other more arrogant ones that chose to wait and see and were not willing to lower their heads, immediately went to find Xue Ying! They incarcerated themselves and wanted to beg for mercy!
“Monarch, I am willing to swear an oath now. I…”
“It is too late.”
…
“Monarch, I haven’t killed anymore. I have stopped killing for a long time!”
“But you have killed in the past.”
…
In just one night.
The entire Realm Heart Great Land changed. Some of the famous huge devils on the list–quite a few were Paragon Masters–as long as they did not lower their heads before Xue Ying fought with ‘Undying Underworld Emperor’, they were all killed!
“Hmph.”
Xue Ying stood in the night sky watching a disappearing devil, “If I were to show you mercy, who would show mercy for the trillion living beings you killed?”
Actually Xue Ying wanted to kill all devils including Eternal Night Primogenitor, Moonflower King, Eight Silk Island Master, and others. Because the blood stained in the hands of these devils was immense.
But previously, when he had not broken through to the final realm, Xue Ying was not strong enough.
Many huge devils could guess that the day this Monarch Flying Snow broke through to the final realm would also be their doomsday. Hence, many lowered their heads! If they did not give them a chance to ‘live’, these devils would most likely turn mad.
Hence, he could only ‘compromise’.
As long as those devils lowered their heads and immediately swear an oath to restrict themselves, Xue Ying would forgo what happened in the past!
“Right now, I have the strength to be the judge, jury and executioner! Begging for mercy?” Xue Ying’s heart was cold, “If I did not kill enough, who would intimidate the subsequent devils? How can I bring forward the new era?”
******
Many Cosmos God level devils had already lowered their heads and made an oath. Those who did not lower their heads were all killed!
After that terrifying day termed as ‘Devil Extinguishing Night’, the general atmosphere in the Realm Heart Great Land shifted. There were no longer any ‘Blood Sacrifices’ in the Realm Heart Great Land because those few great devils who knew how to refine the Essence of Blood Spirit dared not to act viciously anymore. There was no longer any meaning to sacrificing living beings for blood since they would be seeking death.
And from now on, the moment any devil was discovered, there was no need for Xue Ying to act. Many experts who disliked evil that had never appeared in the past would take the initiative to execute them.
…
“The era has changed.”
“He has really altered the entire Realm Heart Great Land.”
Many Cosmos Gods were startled as they saw the transformation happening in the Realm Heart Great Land.
…
Over time, many new-born cultivators on the Realm Heart Great Land were startled: “What? Why would there be Blood Sacrifices in the past? How could it be true that a city with a trillion lives were sacrificed without leaving any single one alive? Did that even happen?”
“The great devils in the past could easily kill a trillion living beings? Impossible! How could there be such mad devils?”
Since they had never seen them before, they naturally did not believe in those stories.
Because now, what they could see were all ‘devils’ being slaughtered in the Realm Heart Great Land the moment they appeared! Many cultivators would even take the initiative to kill them when they found one! They were all filled with ‘justice’. In reality, all the supposed devils that emerged nowadays were just some small fries compared to those that were gathered in the devil gathering grounds in the past.
“Old Devil Green Fiend! You can’t flee!”
“Many training teams have fallen one after in the past, and the few of us thought they met with some dangers! Who would have thought that you are the culprit! Just die for us!”
Seven figures chased after a green-robed old man who was escaping in panic.
And far away at the peak of a mountain.
There were two figures stood there. One was the white-robed Xue Ying, and the other was Emperor Summer dressed in loose black robes. The two of them stood side by side watching everything.
“Haha, Flying Snow, you are really amazing. It feels like it was yesterday when you killed Undying Underworld Emperor. Currently, the atmosphere of the entire Realm Heart Great Land has changed. The few of us do not even dare to think that the Realm Heart Great Land could be like this.” Emperor Summer chuckled, “Even this person dared to call himself an Old Devil? He was even pursued after by so many cultivators!”
“How could it feel like yesterday? It has been more than 200 billion years already.” Xue Ying could not help but retort. To Emperor Summer, it felt like a short period. But to Xue Ying, this was an incredibly long period.
200 billion years.
That was sufficient for many generations of talented Primal Chaos cultivators to emerge! And now, there were many more sentient beings living in the Realm Heart Great Land. That’s because every city was slightly safer, and even Primal Chaos devils could hardly be seen.
“200 billion years is really a fleeting moment.” Emperor Summer sighed, “But talking about this, I kind of prefer living in such a world.”
