“Holy Fighting Technique!” Ye Fan shouted, and a golden pagoda appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness. Countless golden lines appeared on the surface of the pagoda, and each of them exuded the breath of an ancient seal.

“Come on!” Ye Fan shouted, and his body suddenly burst into dazzling golden light. A layer of dark golden scales appeared on the surface of his skin, and each scale exuded the power of destroying the world.

The skeleton’s bronze sword chopped down, and Ye Fan raised his hand and punched out. The fist and sword intersected, and a dazzling light burst out. The skeleton’s bronze sword shattered instantly, and its body was blasted a hundred feet away by the punch.

“Impossible!” the skeleton exclaimed, “How could you possibly comprehend the sacred fighting technique?”

Ye Fan sneered: “How can you covet the inheritance of the Wu Shi Great Emperor?”

His body suddenly disappeared from the spot, and the next moment he appeared on top of the skeleton. He pressed his palm on the top of the skeleton’s head, and the golden pagoda in his sea of ​​consciousness instantly flew out, covering the skeleton.

“Collect the Sutra of the Beginningless!” Ye Fan shouted.

The golden pagoda trembled violently, and the skeleton let out a shrill wail. Its body began to decompose and turned into countless points of light, and a painful human face emerged in each point of light.

“No!” the skeleton roared, “I won’t give in!”

The light spot merged into the golden pagoda, and countless golden lines appeared on the surface of the pagoda, each of which exuded the breath of an ancient seal. Finally, the pagoda slowly shrank and merged into Ye Fan’s sea of ​​consciousness.

“Success.” Ye Fan let out a long breath, “The inheritance of the Wushi Sutra is in my hands.”

Jiang Han nodded and said, “Well done, Ye Fan. Now, we should go to the Divine City. Jiang Taixu needs our help, and the Purple Mountain, the dojo of the Wu Shi Great Emperor, is there.”

Everyone nodded and followed Jiang Han towards the Divine City. Their figures gradually disappeared in the distance, leaving behind a messy battlefield and the exclamations of countless monks.

The scorching sun was scorching the vast Gobi Desert. Ye Fan wiped the sweat from his forehead. The black iron short knife in his hand reflected a cold light in the sun. When they found this purple source stone outside the Loulan ruins three days ago, no one expected that it would cause such a change. The surface of the source stone was covered with mysterious patterns, and under the midday sun, it faintly revealed the imperial power. Even Duan De, a well-informed old man, had his pupils shrink suddenly.

“Old Jiang, this source stone is not right.” Ji Ziyue clenched the Taia sword at her waist, and the Kunlun jade on the hilt glowed faintly. She was born with yin and yang eyes, and at this moment she clearly saw the blood-colored runes flowing on the surface of the source stone, each of which looked like the totem of an ancient beast.

Jiang Han closed his eyes and concentrated, with arcs of lightning appearing and disappearing around him. As the only traverser in the world of Shading Heaven, he had the power of the Thunder Fruit and the blood of the Ancient Saint Body fused into his body. At this moment, his Observation Haki was fully activated, but he only detected a chaotic aura inside the Originium. “Go ahead, be careful.” He said in a deep voice, with lightning crackling at his fingertips.

Ye Fan took a deep breath and chopped down heavily with the black iron knife. The moment the blade light collided with the source stone, the sky and the earth changed color. The purple shock wave spread like a nuclear bomb explosion, and the yellow sand within a radius of ten miles was blown away for hundreds of feet. The camel caravan in the distance saw with horror that the clouds were torn into a huge vortex.

“Click——”

With a crisp cracking sound, the source stone split apart. A black beam of light as thick as a bucket shot up into the sky, and a ferocious beast could be vaguely seen in the beam of light. Duan De’s fat face turned pale in an instant, and he turned around to run away, but was fixed in place by an invisible air wave.

“Not good!” Jiang Han’s pupils shrank into needle-like shapes. He finally saw the existence in the source stone clearly – it was a giant black dog as big as a Tyrannosaurus Rex, with a head like a bronze tripod, canine teeth flashing cold light, and nine blood-colored chains wrapped around its body.

“Woof woof!”

The giant dog howled to the sky, and the sound waves shattered the sand dunes three miles away. Ye Fan felt a sharp pain in his eardrums, a sweet and fishy taste in his throat, and the short knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clang. Ji Ziyue’s Tai’a sword wailed, and spider-web-like cracks appeared on the sword body.

“Oh my god, is this Roaring Sky Dog a spirit?” Duan De screamed and used the Nine-Character Mantra Seal, but the giant dog casually slapped out with its claws, and the nine golden characters were instantly annihilated. He was scared to death, and his fat flesh trembled as he was about to use the Shrinking the Earth into an Inch, but was pressed to the ground by the dog’s claws.

“Let me go, you beast!” Duan De howled like a slaughtered pig, throwing out the incantations of the afterlife in the jade box in his hand without paying. The giant dog turned a deaf ear to him, and its sharp claws scratched sparks on his Taoist robe, and the fat Taoist priest was suddenly dressed in buttocks-exposing clothes.

“Don’t be so arrogant, you evil creature!” Ye Fan shouted, veins popping out all over his body. He activated the Heavenly Emperor Sutra, and the power of thunder and lightning in his body erupted like a volcano. His right hand turned into a hundred-meter-long thunder dragon, and slapped the dog’s head with the might of destroying the world.

“boom!”

At the moment when the thunder dragon and the giant dog collided, a 300-meter-diameter pit appeared on the Gobi Desert. Ye Fan was thrown a thousand meters away by the recoil force, and his back plowed a deep groove in the sand. The giant dog just shook its head, and lightning flashed between its fur, and nine blood-colored chains glowed faintly.

“A mere trifle.” The giant dog spoke in human language, his voice roaring like thunder, “I have been sleeping for 100,000 years, and you ants dare to disturb me?”

“You are the Black Emperor?” Ji Ziyue exclaimed, and the broken Tai’a sword in her hand suddenly resonated. She remembered the record in “The Chronicle of Ancient Emperors”: The Black Emperor was an ancient blood mastiff that had become a spirit. He had suppressed Jiuyou with nine shackles, and his leather armor could block the emperor’s soldiers.

“Hmph, you have some knowledge.” Hei Huang glanced at Ji Ziyue, and suddenly his pupils shrank, “You have the aura of the ruthless emperor!”

Duan De took the opportunity to escape from the dog’s claws, wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and cursed: “Dead dog, your grandfather Duan De is here!” He sacrificed the Nine Coffins Picture, and nine small bronze coffins floated in the air. Each coffin was engraved with densely packed mantras of rebirth.

“Noisy.” The Black Emperor swept his tail, and the nine coffins shattered in an instant. Duan De screamed, bleeding from all seven orifices and flew out. How could he know that the Black Emperor’s tail was transformed from the shackles that suppressed Jiuyou in the past, and a mere acquired spiritual treasure could not withstand a single blow.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ye Fan used the Thunder Emperor Sutra to force himself to stand up. His meridians were broken, but his eyes became more determined: “Old Jiang, let’s go together!”

Jiang Han nodded, and lightning surged around him. He formed the Thunder Emperor Seal with his left hand, and condensed a hundred-meter-long lightning spear with his right hand. As a dual-fruit ability user, his lightning power is more destructive than Ye Fan in the original work.

“Take the move!”

Two lightning bolts simultaneously struck the Black Emperor. The Black Emperor’s pupils shrank, revealing a solemn expression for the first time. It opened its huge mouth, and nine blood-colored chains flew out of its mouth, interweaving into a blood-colored net in the air.

“boom!”

The lightning and the blood net collided, and a blinding white light rang out between heaven and earth. Jiang Han groaned, and the lightning spear shattered into pieces, and black cracks appeared on the skin of his right arm. Ye Fan was even more unbearable, and he knelt on the ground with blood flowing from all his orifices, and the clothes on his chest were shattered into powder.

“Is that all you can do?” The Black Emperor sneered, and the blood net slowly approached, “I will show you what it means to be…”

“Roar!”

Suddenly, a green dragon roared from a distance. Everyone turned around and saw a thousand-meter-long green dragon coming on the clouds, holding a young man in a Taoist robe in its claws.

“Senior Jiang Taixu!” Ye Fan was overjoyed. Jiang Taixu was the top power in the East Wilderness, and he had met him once at the Yaochi Festival.

“Black Emperor, don’t hurt anyone!” Jiang Taixu waved his hand, and the Azure Dragon roared loudly. Black Emperor’s pupils shrank, and the nine chains instantly retracted into his body.

“So it’s you, old man.” Black Emperor sneered, “How did it feel to be suppressed by me 100,000 years ago?”

Jiang Taixu’s face changed slightly: “Hei Huang, do you know who put the nine shackles on you?” Hei Huang suddenly fell silent, with a complex look in his eyes. At this moment, Jiang Han suddenly jumped up, with a black dagger in his hand. It was the rare treasure he brought with him when he traveled through time – the God-killing Blade, which was designed to break all defenses.

“go to hell!”

Jiang Han poured all his strength into the dagger, turning it into lightning and shooting it at the Black Emperor’s throat. The Black Emperor was caught off guard, and the blood net was pierced by the dagger just as it unfolded. It let out a terrifying scream, and its huge body smashed to the ground like a meteorite.

“Successful?” Ji Ziyue looked at the bottomless pit in disbelief. Jiang Han knelt on one knee, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, and a gap had appeared on the God-killing Blade in his hand.

“It’s not over yet.” Jiang Taixu suddenly said, “The Black Emperor’s original spirit”

Before he finished speaking, a black beam of light suddenly rose from the pit. The figure of the Black Emperor reappeared, but his body was reduced to the size of an adult Tibetan mastiff, and the nine chains were more solid.

“Ants, you have completely angered this emperor!” The Black Emperor roared, and the nine chains turned into blood-red dragons and pounced on them. Jiang Taixu’s face changed drastically, and the Azure Dragon’s phantom was instantly torn into pieces.

“Be careful!” Jiang Han pushed Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue away, but he was hit in the chest by the blood-colored dragon. He groaned and flew backwards a thousand meters, with all his ribs broken.

“Old Jiang!” Ye Fan was furious, and he used the “Emperor of Heaven Sutra” to forcefully break through the shackles. The power of thunder and lightning in his body surged wildly, and the emperor pattern appeared on his body.

“Boom!”

The sky suddenly became overcast, and nine purple lightning strikes descended from the sky. Ye Fan opened his arms and took all the lightning into his body. His body began to swell, and veins under his skin moved like dragons.

“Is this the Great Emperor’s Tribulation?” Jiang Taixu exclaimed. Ye Fan’s aura at this moment actually faintly had the power of a Great Emperor.

“Black Emperor, die!”

Ye Fan shouted loudly, and formed the first character of the nine secrets with his hands. All the lightning in the sky gathered into a huge thunder ball with a diameter of one kilometer.

“You dare!” The Black Emperor finally showed a look of fear. The nine chains danced wildly, but were instantly swallowed by the thunder ball.

“boom!”

After the dazzling white light, a huge pit with a diameter of ten kilometers appeared on the Gobi Desert. Ye Fan knelt on the ground, his clothes turned to ashes, and his skin was covered with fine cracks. The figure of the Black Emperor had disappeared, leaving only nine blood-colored chains inserted at the bottom of the pit.

“Successful,” Ji Ziyue staggered to Ye Fan’s side, tears welling up in her eyes. Duan De was digging frantically in the distance, trying to find the body of the Black Emperor.

“It’s not over yet.” Jiang Han stood up with difficulty and pointed at the sky. Everyone looked up and saw a black light streaking across the sky and flying towards the Big Dipper.

“Is that the Black Emperor’s original spirit?” Jiang Taixu frowned.

Jiang Han nodded: “Although its body was destroyed, its soul escaped. However…” He suddenly showed a mysterious smile, “I planted a fragment of the God-killing Blade in its soul.”

Ye Fan smiled knowingly: “That means we can track its location at any time in the future?”

“That’s right.” Jiang Han wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, “and” he raised the blood-colored chain in his hand, “this is the Black Emperor’s life shackles, maybe it can be used to refine the emperor’s weapon.”

Everyone smiled at each other, and no one noticed that behind the sand dunes in the distance, a pair of scarlet eyes were staring at them coldly.
Three months later, the No. 1 auction house in Zhongzhou.

“Dear guests, the next item to be auctioned is an earth-shattering treasure – the Black Emperor’s life shackles!” The auctioneer’s voice trembled with excitement, “According to appraisal, these nine chains contain the power of the emperor, which can be used to refine imperial weapons and suppress destiny…”

There was an uproar in the audience. Representatives from various holy places started bidding, and the price soon exceeded 1 billion divine crystals.

“One billion and fifty million!”

“One billion and eighty million!”

“One eleven hundred million!”

Just when the price soared to 1.5 billion, a young man in white suddenly walked into the auction house. He had nine blood-red chains hanging around his waist, and every step he took carried the majesty of an emperor.

“I want this.” The young man said lightly, his voice was soft but it spread throughout the place.

The auctioneer was about to speak when he suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart. He was horrified to find that his throat seemed to be strangled by an invisible hand and he could not make a sound.

“You dare to auction the Black Emperor’s things?” The young man sneered, and nine chains suddenly flew up and sucked away the shackles on the auction table.

“You are…” Ji Ziyue walked out of the VIP room with a drastic change of expression.

“My name is Hei Huang, nice to meet you all.” The young man bowed and smiled, “Thank you for helping me find my life shackles.”

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly disappeared. Ji Ziyue chased him to the door, only to see nine blood-red lights flying towards the sky in the yellow sand.

“Old Jiang, what is going on?” Ye Fan frowned.

Jiang Han smiled bitterly and said, “I underestimated the Black Emperor’s ability to recover. But it doesn’t matter.” A gleam flashed in his eyes, “The fun has just begun.”

In the distance, the Black Emperor stood on the top of Mount Buzhou, with nine chains flying behind him. He looked towards Zhongzhou, and sneered: “Ye Fan, Jiang Han, I will let you know the price of angering the emperor.”

In that mysterious and vast world, Ye Fan and Duan De’s eyes met and they smiled at each other. Their tacit understanding seemed to have found a soulmate in the depths of their souls. Without any hesitation, they flashed and stood in front of the majestic but now embarrassed big black dog.

“What are you two bastards going to do to me!” The big black dog met the playful and almost mocking eyes of Ye Fan and Duan De, and inexplicably, a chill suddenly shuddered in his heart. He was full of fear, but the lightning he had suffered before was too fierce, and all the cells in his body seemed to be imprisoned by an invisible but powerful force, paralyzed, unable to move at all, and could only let the two people manipulate him, leaving only angry roars echoing in the air.

Ye Fan and Duan De had playful smiles on their faces, staring at the big black dog, as if they were examining a new toy. Then, they slowly raised their feet at the same time, and the movement seemed to be deliberately slow, as if they were deliberately torturing the big black dog’s nerves. (End of this chapter)
