Shrouding the Heavens: Empress, I am truly not the Desolate Heavenly Emperor!

The Empress remained silent.

She raised her slender hand and gently traced a line in the air with her index finger.

laugh!

A golden, divinely radiant thread appeared out of thin air, winding and twisting, instantly outlining a profound and unparalleled diagram of the human body's meridians.

"The Qi flows through the Taiyin point, passes the Tanzhong point, travels three inches backward, and then enters the Dantian."

Her voice remained clear and cold, yet it was like the voice of the Great Dao, each word like thunder, shaking Ye Chen's soul.

Ye Chen felt a boom in his mind, and the obscure scriptures, which were as difficult as heavenly books, suddenly became clear!

That's it!

It actually involves reversing the flow of Qi through the meridians!

The spiritual energy of the desolate forbidden land is domineering and unparalleled. Going with the flow will only lead to disaster, while going against the flow will use the "Devouring Heaven Dao Evolution Scripture" as a furnace to forcibly crush and refine these destructive fragments of the Dao, turning them into the most primordial nourishment!

"Wonderful! Absolutely wonderful!"

Ye Chen couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

He immediately closed his eyes and guided the spiritual energy according to the new route pioneered by the Empress.

Rumble!

This time, the forbidden spiritual energy surging into his body was no longer a bone-scraping steel knife, but rather a series of primordial beasts that had been completely tamed, roaring and surging through his meridians, ultimately returning to the dried-up sea of ​​bitterness.

But he did not stop there.

He continued reciting, exposing the incomplete and flawed parts of the technique to the Empress one by one.

"To transform this place into a divine spring, one must use one's own essence and blood as a catalyst..."

"stupid."

The Empress snorted coldly, raised her hand again, and golden light cascaded down.

"Why need one's own essence and blood? All things in heaven and earth can be the catalyst. Seize their creation, invade their mysteries, and use them as the catalyst."

With a casual wave of her hand, a fluttering peach petal suddenly stopped, instantly condensing into a pink rune that disappeared into Ye Chen's body.

Ye Chen was deeply shaken.

This Daoist aura... is clearly the shadow of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art!

The Empress was actually using her own supreme Dao to complete this incomplete "Dao Yan Jue" for him!

time flies.

One person reads aloud, and another person edits.

If this scene were witnessed by a holy lord or emperor outside, it would likely shatter their Dao heart.

That was the ruthless Great Emperor, whose power had dominated for countless ages! Yet now he was personally guiding a mere cultivator at the Life Spring Realm to demonstrate the supreme scriptures!

Gradually, Ye Chen's aura underwent a qualitative change.

The originally chaotic spiritual energy became as deep and dark as the waters of a bitter sea, yet within that extreme darkness, a domineering and unparalleled golden light was being nurtured.

That is the fountain of new life.

No, it's far more than just the Fountain of Life.

Under the Empress's personal "correction," Ye Chen's sea of ​​consciousness is undergoing an unprecedented transformation!

Click!

The shackles inside the body snapped instantly.

Ye Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and two black-gold divine lights, like swords drawn from their sheaths, pierced the void in front of him, causing it to emit a slight popping sound.

The realm of existence remains the wellspring of life.

But he felt that his strength was more than ten times greater than before!

If the previous life spring was a well, now it is a bottomless abyss!

He could even clearly sense that the essence contained in the surrounding plants was bowing to him, waiting to be devoured by him.

This is the "Devouring Heaven Dao Evolution Scripture: Supreme Scroll" created by the Empress herself!

"call……"

Ye Chen exhaled a breath of stale air, feeling comfortable in every part of his body.

He turned to look at the Empress, his eyes filled with heartfelt gratitude.

"My dear, thank you so much. If it weren't for you..."

Before he could finish speaking, he froze.

The empress standing under the tree was deathly pale, and a wisp of dazzling white hair had appeared out of nowhere amidst her cascading black hair.

The deduction she just made, though seemingly effortless, actually took an unimaginable toll on her mental energy, given her damaged Dao body.

"My little girl!"

Ye Chen felt a pang of pain in his heart. This time, there was no pretense, and he instinctively stepped forward.

The Empress simply waved her hand lightly.

She slowly opened her eyes, the sharpness in them fading considerably, replaced by an unprecedented weariness and a hint of... barely perceptible dependence.

"Brother, I'm sleepy."

She spoke softly, her voice gentle and sweet, as if in a dream.

"I want to hear... the story of Snow White after she became queen."

Ye Chen felt a lump in his throat.

This woman, who had silenced the world with her killing spree, now seemed like a child who had exhausted all her strength, wanting only a bedtime story.

"Okay, brother will tell you."

Ye Chen suppressed the turmoil in his heart, sat back down beside her, and let her rest her head on his shoulder.

"After Snow White became queen, she discovered that there were still countless evil people in the world. So, she forged a sword for herself, a sword that could cut through all injustice in the world..."

Ye Chen's voice was deep and gentle, flowing slowly through the deathly silence of the forbidden area.

The Empress's breathing gradually became steady, and a strand of white hair fluttered slightly in the wind, stinging Ye Chen's eyes.

His fingernails dug deep into his palm, sending a sharp, piercing pain through him, but it was nothing compared to the anguish he felt at that moment.

Ye Chen, you are a complete liar.

He looked down at the peerless sleeping face in his arms, where all defenses had been laid bare. That glaring strand of white hair felt like a needle piercing his heart.

A deep sense of guilt overwhelmed him instantly.

But then, an even more domineering emotion grew wildly from the deepest part of his heart.

Since we've already lied, let's lie to the end!

Now that this show has begun, Ye Chen will become the sole player!

His gaze settled, all guilt and self-reproach were crushed and reforged into an almost obsessive ruthlessness.

Right now.

Boom!

A deafening roar shattered the tranquility of Peach Blossom Valley without warning.

The entire desolate and forbidden land was trembling violently, as if a sleeping ancient god or demon was awakening.

Ye Chen suddenly looked up, his gaze sharp as lightning, piercing through the thick fog and looking towards the inner perimeter of the forbidden area.

There, smoke and dust billowed into the sky.

A violent, desolate, ancient aura swept in like a tsunami.

"roar--!"

The deep, rumbling roar shook the heavens and earth, causing rocks to tumble down the mountainside.

It's that nine-aperture stone figure!

Attracted by the aura of Ye Chen's breakthrough, or rather, by the mutated "Devouring Heaven" Daoist charm, it is rushing madly toward this place.

"They came really fast."

A cold glint flashed in Ye Chen's eyes, but he showed no sign of panic.

He glanced down at the sleeping empress, then gently reached out and covered her ears.

"Go to sleep, I'm here."

"I'm going to slaughter some animal to... liven things up for you."

Ye Chen slowly got up and gently laid the Empress on the ground covered with peach blossoms.

This time, he didn't consider backing down.

He slowly turned around, facing the dust-filled, menacing direction. Deep in his eyes, a cluster of black flames ignited, and a cold, greedy smile appeared on his lips.

The newly completed "Swallowing Heaven Dao Evolution Scripture: Supreme Scroll" is in dire need of a decent whetstone.

"You've come at the perfect time."

Ye Chen licked his slightly dry lips and muttered to himself, his voice trembling with suppressed excitement.

"Let me see if your ancient remnant's Dao principles are even enough to fill my teeth!"
