Chapter 1079: Chapter 1098: Envoys from Chaos
“Between us, there’s no need for thanks. I’ve not been by your side before, but in the days to come, we’ll walk together. As long as I, Liu Baiyi, am Undying, I will protect you, Ye Xuan.”
Liu Baiyi spoke forcefully, that peerless smile on his white-clothed visage etched into Ye Xuan’s mind.
“Alright, no matter what the future holds, as long as I, Ye Xuan, live, anyone who dares to harm you, Liu Baiyi, will first have to step over my corpse.” Ye Xuan declared solemnly.
“Hahaha.”
The two looked at each other and laughed, everything remaining unspoken, only that truest feeling blossoming within their hearts.
“Brother Ye, although this array according to my design can shield you from the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations Thunder and Mysterious Fire, it’s not foolproof. After all, I haven’t witnessed the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations myself, how powerful it is remains unknown to us, so you must be prepared for anything.” Liu Baiyi cautioned in a deep voice.
“But rest assured Brother Ye, I have one final trump card in this array. Should you be unable to withstand the Thunder and Mysterious Fire, I will unleash the effect of reversing Heaven and Earth, transferring the power of the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations to the whole Primordial Heaven and Earth, though it’s the last resort.” Liu Baiyi whispered coldly.
“Transfer to the Primordial Heaven and Earth?”
Ye Xuan was startled and said, “Wouldn’t that mean the Primordial Heaven and Earth would be utterly destroyed?”
“Indeed, although this method is extremely cruel, it’s my final trump card, letting the entire Primordial Heaven and Earth assist you in Crossing Tribulation. If Brother Ye, you cannot survive this tribulation, then the Primordial Heaven and Earth has no reason to exist.” Liu Baiyi said solemnly.
White robes peerless, akin to a banished celestial, Liu Baiyi was by no means a stubbornly benevolent person. He had no attachments to this world, Ye Xuan was his best friend, even if it meant destroying the Primordial World, he must ensure Ye Xuan survives, which was his truest sentiment.
“Alright.”
Ye Xuan laughed heartily, he was not a hesitant person. As Liu Baiyi said, should he perish under the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations, he wouldn’t care for the life or death of the Primordial Heaven and Earth.
People if not for themselves, Heaven’s punishment and earth’s extinction would ensue. Ye Xuan wasn’t inherently benevolent, for the sake of his path to transcendence, even if it meant burying the entire Primordial Heaven and Earth, there would be no concern.
“Brother Ye, the Chaos Four Tribulations Array, I only forged its Array Diagram, the materials required to set up the array will trouble you.” Liu Baiyi said.
“These are small matters, once the Chaos Four Tribulations are forged, I shall step into the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations, truly experiencing the greatest challenges of my life.” Ye Xuan murmured.
…
On this day, the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven was bustling with activity, numerous supreme treasures of Heaven and Earth were being transported to the Heavenly Venerate Palace, Ye Xuan and Liu Baiyi joined hands to begin the array setup.
Three thousand more years passed, the Chaos Four Tribulations Array was finally forged, transforming into a simple ancient Stone Map, falling into Ye Xuan’s hand.
Unremarkable, without breath, the so-called Chaos Four Tribulations Array seemed like just a stone, but the horror it nurtured was unimaginable to outsiders.
This array had surpassed Heaven and Earth, was a true chaotic Great Formation, and was the strongest array Liu Baiyi had built for Ye Xuan.
“Brother Baiyi, I shall seclude for thirty thousand years, after which I will cross those Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations. If I truly die to the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations, then I entrust the Primordial Heaven and Earth to you.” Before entering seclusion, Ye Xuan earnestly instructed Liu Baiyi.
“Rest assured, Brother Ye, if you truly fall under the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations in the future, I, Liu Baiyi, will definitely retrace your steps, even if enduring thousand tribulations and myriad hardships, I will bring you back.” Liu Baiyi stated forcefully.
“Hahaha.”
“With such a friend, life is without regrets.”
Ye Xuan laughed boldly, striding into the Heavenly Venerate Palace, as over the next thirty thousand years, he would elevate his Essence Qi to the extreme, reaching his peak state, to meet the advent of the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations.
Rumble!
The gates of the Heavenly Venerate Palace closed, Ye Xuan’s figure vanished from Liu Baiyi’s sight.
Watching Ye Xuan disappear from view, Liu Baiyi’s fists slightly clenched, determination never seen before manifesting in his eyes.
“Brother Ye, I absolutely will not let you die, even if it costs my life it won’t matter.”
Liu Baiyi suddenly turned and left, unbeknownst to Ye Xuan, the Chaos Four Tribulations Array was not only forged once, another had been secretly hidden by Liu Baiyi.
The hidden Chaos Four Tribulations Array was fundamentally different from the one in Ye Xuan’s possession, but Liu Baiyi hadn’t told Ye Xuan, fearing that Ye Xuan would worry about his methods and surely prevent him from such actions.
“Brother Ye, though you are very clever, you wouldn’t conceive that, back then Luo Hou could transfer his calamity to you, I, Liu Baiyi, boast unmatched talent, how could I not create a method to transplant calamity?”
A long sigh resonated faintly, Liu Baiyi’s figure floated away, only that white robe ever traversed this expanse of Heaven and Earth’s long sky.
White robes peerless, unmatched in epochs, his name was Liu Baiyi, a genius destined to make heaven and ghosts weep.
He didn’t want the path to transcendence, he didn’t crave unmatched eternity, he wanted merely to see Ye Xuan become the supreme first of all ages, which was his lifelong wish, even if it meant sacrificing his life.
…
Meanwhile, in the Chaos Starry Sky.
A dozen terrifying phantoms shifted within the Chaos Starry Sky, roaming amidst Chaos, each one radiating immensely powerful aura, possessing Cultivation akin to Heavenly Dao Saints.
“Boss, we’ve searched for ten million years, not only have we not found Pangu, but there’s no trace of the three thousand Demon Gods. If this continues, how do we explain to the Undying Heavenly Lord?” A green-faced tusked man whispered deeply.
“It’s undeniable, absolutely undeniable, once the aura of the three thousand Demon Gods disappeared, it was in this direction, we will find Pangu sooner or later.”
Leading them, clad in black battle armor, wielding a Demon Blade, surrounded by oppressive Demon Light, his Cultivation rivaling the Heavenly Dao Fifth Tribulation.
“Big brother, look.”
Suddenly, a middle-aged man exclaimed in shock, pointing at the starry sky ahead, elation suffusing his entire being.
“Hmm?”
Zhan Yunshan’s expression altered, voicing surprise, for ahead lay a vast curtain of light, faintly able to glimpse the grand world within.
“How is it possible?”
“How can there be a world on the Chaos Border?” Zhan Yunshan said in astonishment.
“Pangu?”
“Pangu’s aura?”
Suddenly, Zhan Yunshan’s expression shifted, carefully sensing, realizing that the world ahead held circulating Pangu’s aura.
“The aura of three thousand Demon Gods, the aura of three thousand Demon Gods?”
The green-faced tusked man shouted in shock, for just as they arrived in this Chaos Starry Sky, they boldly sensed the aura left by three thousand Demon Gods.
“Dead, all dead?” The green-faced tusked man whispered tremblingly.
