Boom!
The vast universe trembled, and the heavens and earth shook, all due to a dazzling burst of light.
Then, a destructive force spread out amidst rolling demonic energy. Even the Di Dao Jin Zhi was shattered upon impact, and the Wan E Mo Di was forced to retreat.
"Broke through?" Xiong Er said, stunned.
"It's the Xue Ji Xian Jie," Xie Yun, with a broader perspective, couldn't help but laugh.
This remark excited countless people.
The Xue Ji Xian Jie was indestructible and immortal, the most dominant state in the world. Although the female Sheng Ti, being at the peak of the Zhun Di realm, couldn't match the Wan E Mo Di in battle, with the Xue Ji Xian Jie added, it was different. Being unkillable and unharmed, it was like a divine cheat code, making up for the shortcomings of the Di Dao.
In that instant, Ye Chen and Di Huang both smiled.
This was a unique understanding among the Sheng Ti lineage. This Xue Ji Xian Jie would be the female Sheng Ti's final near-transcendence before her nirvana, helping her defy the heavens and slay a great emperor.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As the masses watched, rhythmic thumping sounds suddenly echoed, slow and steady.
From the rolling demonic energy, a blurry figure gradually emerged, each step as heavy as a mountain, causing yin and yang to collapse. Even the strongest demonic energy couldn't obscure her form.
Indeed, it was the female Sheng Ti.
As Xie Yun had said, she had activated the Xue Ji Xian Jie. Her long hair had turned blood-red, and her once clear eyes were now pitch-black, like two black holes with no pupils visible. The blood marks all over her body had vanished, reformed into a domineering Sheng Ti. The golden Sheng blood flowing within her had transformed strand by strand into black, carrying a demonic essence that was indestructible and immortal.
At that moment, she was no longer a female war god, but more like a female demon god. The surging demonic energy around her was even more demonic and evil than that of the Wan E Mo Di.
The most striking feature was the ancient divine mark etched on her forehead, not belonging to the Sheng Ti, but exclusive to the Xue Ji Xian Jie. Only a Sheng Ti who had activated it would truly possess it.
"Incredible." Even the Sheng Zun felt a chill at the sight of that female demon god.
The Xue Ji Xian Jie was rare, and for a Sheng Ti to enter this state was inherently taboo. But once activated, it made the heavens lose color. Her aura even suppressed the Wan E Mo Di by a notch.
"Truly domineering." The divine generals sighed in admiration.
Imagine how terrifying it would be if Di Huang could enter this state—even the Tian Mo Tian Di would have to kneel. The stronger the cultivation, the more heaven-defying the Xue Ji Xian Jie became.
"Done beautifully." The old folks from the various heavens were thrilled, with many rolling up their sleeves. A female Sheng Ti on the verge of full maturity, now in an indestructible state—what was there to fear? Whether it was an emperor or a supreme being, they could all be wiped out.
"Have you noticed?" Zi Xuan whispered, sending a message to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen didn't respond immediately, only furrowing his brow slightly and narrowing his eyes.
After a few moments, he turned to look at Di Huang.
Di Huang's expression was the same, the fully mature Sheng Ti also frowning.
They weren't just reacting to the Xue Ji Xian Jie; it was because the female Sheng Ti's state was different from others'. Her indestructible form was purer than anyone else's Xue Ji Xian Jie.
This included Ye Chen's.
The reason they frowned wasn't solely due to the Xue Ji Xian Jie, but because of the female Sheng Ti's current form—it was too similar to someone in their memories.
That person was the black-clothed Ye Chen, transformed from the Zhu Xian Jian.
Only three people in the heavens had seen the black-clothed Ye Chen: Di Huang, Ye Chen, and Zi Xuan.
"I get it." A flash of shock appeared in Ye Chen's eyes.
"What do you mean?" Zi Xuan asked hurriedly from his side.
"In this world, there are two kinds of Huang Gu Sheng Ti. The first kind, like the black-clothed Ye Chen, is innately in the Xue Ji Xian Jie state. The other kind is like me, our predecessors, and all the Sheng Ti throughout history."
"This..." Even Zi Xuan, with her composure, showed a drastic change in expression.
Being innately in the Xue Ji Xian Jie state—how terrifying was that? In other words, the one Di Huang had destroyed that day was a Huang Gu Sheng Ti in the Xue Ji Xian Jie state.
"The owner of the Zhu Xian Jian was also a Huang Gu Sheng Ti?" Zi Xuan probed.
"Absolutely," Ye Chen said with complete certainty. "And it belongs to the first kind of Huang Gu Sheng Ti. The reason the Zhu Xian Jian transformed into a Sheng Ti must be due to its owner."
"But why did the Zhu Xian Jian take your form?"
"It's just the appearance," Ye Chen explained. "If it wanted, it could also take the form of Di Huang."
Zi Xuan fell silent, looking up at Di Huang.
"As he said," Di Huang replied calmly, his brow still furrowed. His and Ye Chen's guesses aligned.
That day, he had fought the black-clothed Ye Chen and felt it most acutely. The black-clothed Ye Chen was hard to kill not only because he was a Sheng Ti, but because he was in an indestructible state. If the black-clothed Ye Chen had been a flawless Huang Gu Sheng Ti, even Di Huang couldn't have won.
Now, the female Sheng Ti's Xue Ji Xian Jie confirmed his suspicion.
The state of the first kind of Huang Gu Sheng Ti was the purest form of Xue Ji Xian Jie.
This absolutely outclassed the second kind of Huang Gu Sheng Ti.
To put it bluntly, the first kind was far more dominant.
The female Sheng Ti's Xue Ji Xian Jie was infinitely close to that of the first kind, not because she was exceptionally talented, but because her origins were undoubtedly linked to the first kind. That's why her Xue Ji Xian Jie was purer than Ye Chen's.
"Hong Yan, just who are you?" Ye Chen murmured.
Not just him—Di Huang wanted to know too. He wanted to uncover the secrets hidden in the Sheng Ti lineage and why the owner of the Zhu Xian Jian, also a Huang Gu Sheng Ti, was at odds with the Sheng Ti lineage. What kind of grudge existed between the two kinds of Huang Gu Sheng Ti?
Boom! Rumble!
As Ye Chen and Di Huang pondered, the Da Dao Tai Shang Heaven was struck by lightning and thunder, with apocalyptic light crisscrossing and manifesting various destructive visions. They intertwined in collapse and crumbled in interweaving, as terrifying as the end of the world, making all who witnessed it feel a deep soul-shaking dread. Even peak Zhun Di couldn't hide their trembling hearts.
Hong Yan stood amidst the lightning and thunder, like the ruler of the world, overlooking the eight directions.
Her Xue Ji Xian Jie was indeed purer.
This time, not just Ye Chen, Di Huang, and Zi Xuan, but even the divine generals and emperors noticed something was off. It was the same Xue Ji Xian Jie, but they were on completely different levels.
"Could that be the Xue Ji Xian Jie?" Tang San Shao asked, mouth agape in confusion as he stared.
Beside him, Dao Yuan Sheng Ti, Zi Fu Xian Ti, Xie Yun, and the others all turned with strange looks. It was undoubtedly the Xue Ji Xian Jie, but it was far stronger than the little black fatty's. The same indestructibility and immortality, yet worlds apart.
"Even Ye Chen's doesn't compare, let alone his," Si Tu Nan said, hands tucked in his sleeves.
"What do you think—if someone slept with the female Sheng Ti right now, would the child be born with the Xue Ji Xian Jie?" Xie Yun pondered out loud, stroking his chin.
"Sounds plausible," Many agreed, their imaginations running wild.
"Best to find a Sheng Ti, and one who's good in bed."
"If two Sheng Ti combined with the Xue Ji Xian Jie—oh heavens! Wouldn't it produce a sphere or something?"
"A coal ball?"
"Get lost."
The group chattered away, one remark after another, growing more excited by the second.
And these folks were quite perceptive—they all turned to look at Ye Chen. No matter how you viewed it, Young Master Ye perfectly fit the bill. It was a match made in heaven!
Even Ye Ling at his side blinked her big eyes curiously. Having another little one would make her more extraordinary than Ye Fan. Not only would Yu Nu Feng liven up, but the entire heavens would too.
Ye Chen acted as if he hadn't heard, focusing only on Hong Yan and pondering her origins.
Chu Xuan and Chu Ling were watching too, their expressions dazed, with a hint of confusion in their eyes. They felt like they'd seen Hong Yan in the Xue Ji Xian Jie state somewhere before, but couldn't recall where.
