Giant blood pillars moved slowly between heaven and earth.

    They were like sharp surgical scalpels.

    The Immortal Kingdom world was constantly being split, crumbling and disappearing piece by piece.

    Two lines of faint light appeared before Shen Ye’s eyes:

    “The power of the ‘Door’ ability has been recognized by the ‘Multilayer Universe’, allowing for more information and intelligence to be acquired and interpreted.”

    “The current visible object is:”

    “??? Second-order ultimate power, from other ultimate creations, specific information unknown.”

    Second-order ultimate power?

    What is this again?

    Shen Ye was filled with doubts.

    Yet two small lines of text explained:

    “The twenty-one ultimate creations that constitute ‘Truth’ all need to constantly evolve. For each era they grow, they gain one rank of ultimate power.”

    “The power of each ultimate creation is absolutely different.”

    “The second, third, and fourth-order ultimate powers of the multilayer universe are successively the three arts.”

    So that’s how it is.

    Shen Ye suddenly understood.

    ——Another ultimate creation had attacked!

    So the crisis of the Supreme Immortal Kingdom was actually a battle of life and death for the entire multilayer universe.

    A streak of firelight flew from a distant sky.

    Shen Ye caught it effortlessly.

    It was a message talisman!

    Sect Master Fu Wangchen‘s voice sounded from the talisman:

    “All true disciples, return to Haoyang Heavenly Palace immediately, prepare to fight to the death with the extraterrestrial demonic creatures!”

    Shen Ye put away the talisman and looked around.

    This remote jungle was temporarily safe.

    If he had the Invisible Demon Heavenly Saint King and the Great Skeleton guard it, he might be able to—

    Get a good night’s sleep!

    With that thought.

    Shen Ye clasped his hands into a seal and let out a low cry:

    “Dharma realm descends!”

    He yawned and lay down on a branch, falling asleep.

    ——The Dharma Aspect · Taiyi Yanming Jiuku Mengshen Palace activated!

    Unlike before.

    This time, with the addition of the Heaven-Shaking Art’s Dharma Aspect seed, the power of the technique had become even more wondrous.

    Shen Ye lay there motionless.

    Yet another Shen Ye emerged from him, stepping on the branch, observing his surroundings.

    ——It was his dream and dream body!

    Faint light appeared as small text:

    “The three arts’ Dharma Aspects are gathered, though two of them are still weak, they can still change the power of the Dharma Aspect.”

    “Everything experienced by the dream body is a dream. If you acknowledge it, it will transform into reality.”

    The small text disappeared.

    Shen Ye flew towards the town, quickly found a teleportation array, and rushed back to Haoyang Heavenly Palace.

    In history.

    Although the Immortal Kingdom sealed off all the End Lords of the Eras, it also fell into destruction.

    During this process—

    Could I gain something?

    As Shen Ye thought, lines of faint light appeared in the void:

    “Your actions during the process of breaking through the barrier have expanded your reputation, to the extent that your name has appeared in relevant records.”

    “This record concerns the twenty-one ultimate creations, the continuation and struggle of truth.”

    “Thanks to this, your dark gold keyword ‘Blood-sucking Kid’ has received continuous upgrades, transforming into a new, higher-level keyword:”

    “Blood-sucking Grandfather.”

    “Life skill type keyword, Primordial level, self-growth type keyword.”

    “Description: Integrate any existence into a designated target, allowing the designated target to perfectly inherit everything from the former, resulting in a super-evolutionary effect.”

    “Each fusion consumes a certain amount of mental energy.”

    “A maximum of seven can be fused at one time.”

    “—Come on, call me grandpa.”

    “If you can perform more praiseworthy brotherly deeds, this keyword will grow into a higher-level keyword.”

    Primordial level!

    This was the highest level he could access at the moment!

    Shen Ye was a little excited.

    ——He had been traveling in the universe for so long, enduring countless hardships, and this was the first time he had seen a “Primordial” level keyword.

    Very good.

    With this Primordial keyword, he was even more confident!

    Shen Ye walked out of the teleportation formation, full of ambition, just about to see the situation of Haoyang Heavenly Palace—

    A crimson beam of light descended from the sky.

    The world suddenly turned dark.

    On the other side.

    Shen Ye, sleeping soundly on the branch, yawned and mumbled.

    The Dharma Aspect rose again!

    Instantly.

    Another dream was born.

    Shen Ye’s dream body leaped up from the branch, looking towards the direction of Haoyang Heavenly Palace.

    ——That strike just now had wiped out the entire Haoyang Heavenly Palace.

    He was just collateral damage.

    How could the second-order power of that ultimate creation be so strong?

    If Haoyang Heavenly Palace couldn’t withstand that monster’s attack, then why could Guanghan Heavenly Palace and Penglai Immortal Mountain withstand it?

    Go see!

    Shen Ye once again flew to a town, located the teleportation array to Penglai Immortal Mountain, and completed the teleportation again.

    As soon as he appeared at the gate of Penglai Immortal Mountain, he saw streaks of crimson light flashing in the sky.

    Boom!!!

    The entire Penglai Immortal Mountain was continuously bombarded and gradually completely destroyed, transforming into a vast bottomless abyss on the ground.

    Too strong!

    The fierce gale blew Shen Ye away.

    The invisible shockwave instantly caused him a considerable injury, and his entire body was like a falling leaf, drifting with the wind.

    Shen Ye frowned slightly, thoughts flashing through his mind.

    The End Lord of All Eras.

    In later generations, one-thousandth of its power was enough to destroy everything.

    At this moment—

    It was in its prime!

    Could the three arts really defeat it?

    Shen Ye looked up.

    Only to see three clusters of light appearing deep in the sky.

    Within each cluster of light was an incomparably powerful human cultivator.

    However, they guarded against each other, maintaining their distance, circling in the sky, none willing to make the first move.

    The disaster on the ground grew deeper.

    The ground shook incessantly, cracking into many bottomless ravines that swallowed up cities one by one.

    Even the cultivation sects suffered.

    Crimson beams of light pierced through the clouds, destroying everything in their path, eradicating all cultivating individuals who attempted to resist.

    Within the three clusters of light, one finally couldn’t hold back.

    The Master of Haoyang Heavenly Palace, Fu Wangchen

    He formed a hand seal, gathering all the dharma power in his body, exuding a mighty aura.

    ——Heaven-Shaking Art!

    Shen Ye had experienced the power of this art.

    Among the three arts, if judged purely by power, the Heaven-Shaking Art’s combat strength was the strongest!

    Just then, Fu Wangchen roared and raised his hand:

    “Heaven-Shaking—”

    A crimson waterfall of light suddenly appeared in the void, surpassing all the light beams raging on the earth, surging upwards like a colossal wave.

    A few lines of faint text appeared:

    “Third-order ultimate power, specific information unknown.”

    This was a stronger ultimate power!

    Fu Wangchen had no time to complete the entire technique before he was enveloped by the light waterfall, turning into withered bones.

    ——The Heaven-Shaking Art didn’t even get a chance to activate!

    Shen Ye’s heart skipped a beat.

    If that was the case, they couldn’t possibly defeat the End Lord of All Eras.

    Let alone talk about sealing it.

    ——Could it really be sealed successfully?

    He continued to watch the battle in the sky, only to see the other two cultivators still fighting on their own, and they were quickly eliminated.

    The world turned dark in an instant.

    Endless fire rain poured down from the sky, destroying everything on the earth.

    And then golden-glowing wind raged across the land.

    Everything that existed was turned to dust by the wind, without exception.

    That terrifying monster hadn’t left yet.

    After taking care of the wielder of the three arts, it soared back and forth in the sky, seemingly searching for something.

    After a while.

    The entire world was destroyed by the fire rain.

    Those who miraculously survived all plummeted into the dark void, continuously buffeted by the endless golden wind.

    A golden light swept towards Shen Ye with the wind.

    His vision instantly went dark.

    On the branch.

    The sleeping Shen Ye trembled all over, as if enduring some extremely terrifying pain.

    “Ugh…”

    He endured the pain, yet dared not disperse his Dharma Aspect and awaken from his dream.

    ——He hadn’t expected the End Lord in its prime to be so powerful!

    How could they fight this?

    The three arts were not fused at this time, so they hadn’t reached the point of touching the barrier.

    The masters of the three arts were suspicious and wary of each other, completely unable to cooperate, let alone allow the three arts to merge.

    ——This was absolutely no match for that monster!

    As for the fusion of the three arts—

    He couldn’t do it either.

    He hadn’t even finished cultivating the Supreme Forgetfulness and Ascension Scripture, nor had he completed the Path to Heaven.

    The Heaven-Shaking Art was only a seed.

    Any one of the three sect masters could completely crush him!

    Shen Ye sighed.

    Couldn’t win.

    Why was this happening?

    Had he stayed in this past era for too long, causing changes in the past?

    In short—

    The Immortal Kingdom seemed to be on the verge of destruction.

    Shen Ye cast aside his emotions, kept his breathing at a steady rhythm, and gradually re-entered the dream state.

    Another dream unfolded.

    Shen Ye leaped up, looking up at the sky.

    At this moment.

    The sky gradually turned fiery red.

    Everything had just begun!

    “With my strength… it’s too late to do anything… and useless.”

    Shen Ye murmured softly.

    Yes.

    That was the truth.

    Even the three strongest sect masters of the Immortal Kingdom were defeated so thoroughly, without even a chance to make a move.

    Had history really changed?

    If so, there would truly be no future.

    What to do?

    A flash of lightning suddenly crossed Shen Ye’s mind.

    Wait…

    Perhaps there wasn’t a complete lack of a solution.

    Maybe he could try.

    Shen Ye’s thoughts raced, and suddenly his ideas opened up.

    In an instant.

    Before everyone in Haoyang Heavenly Palace, corresponding live text messages appeared:

    Xu Qingfeng noticed the arrival of the ‘End Lord of All Eras’.”

    Xu Qingfeng was greatly surprised.”

    “Could everything Haoyang Stone said have been true?”

    “If it’s true, then, to protect the Supreme Immortal Kingdom, there is only one way—”

    The text stopped moving there.

    The entire Haoyang Heavenly Palace, from the sect master to the elders and disciples, was captivated by this passage.

    Sect Master Fu Wangchen directly rushed into the sky, wanting to find the Haoyang Stone to verify it.

    ——The Haoyang Stone was gone!

    But Xu Qingfeng was still broadcasting!

    If he wasn’t lying—

    Fu Wangchen couldn’t care less about anything else and quickly asked:

    “Where was Xu Qingfeng teleported to?”

    “It’s the dense forest of the Southern Wilderness’s 100,000 Great Mountains!” an elder replied.

    “Send me over!”

    “Yes!”

    Several elders simultaneously unleashed a super long-distance teleportation technique.

    Fu Wangchen disappeared in an instant.

    Southern Wilderness, 100,000 Great Mountains.

    Dense forest.

    The moment he appeared, he sensed Shen Ye’s aura.

    “Over there!”

    Fu Wangchen‘s figure flickered and he appeared before Shen Ye.

    “Who exactly are you!”

    Fu Wangchen demanded.

    “I am Xu Qingfeng, Sect Master. It’s just that when I entered the sect, the Haoyang Stone said it had a way to deal with the upcoming catastrophe, and then it told me a lot of things,” Shen Ye said.

    “What is the method for dealing with it?” Fu Wangchen asked.

    “Do you believe me?” Shen Ye asked, stunned.

    ——It shouldn’t be, he had prepared many excuses, but he didn’t expect him to believe it just like that.

    “Nonsense, the Haoyang Stone is the spirit artifact that carries the Heaven-Shaking Art, it has its own consciousness. Since it is on you, what is there for me not to believe?”

    Fu Wangchen said.

    On me…

    Shen Ye felt something, reached for his waist, and indeed found a jade pendant.

    This was the “blood person’s” jade pendant!

    “When you find that art, that art will also find you.”

    At that time, fate’s profiling had given such an explanation.

    So that’s how it is!

    When he obtained the seed of the Heaven-Shaking Art, the inheritance artifact of this art had discovered him!

    Shen Ye glanced at the jade pendant.

    Indeed, there was a luminous stone within the jade pendant.

    It was the Haoyang Stone.

    “What kind of countermeasure do you have, quickly tell me—you should know that this extraterrestrial demonic creature is not simple this time, I am already prepared to fight to the death.”

    Fu Wangchen said.

    “Take me with you, and then find a way to stand with the holders of the Heaven-Reaching Art and the Heaven-Swallowing Art,” Shen Ye said.

    “Are you sure?” Fu Wangchen asked suspiciously.

    “This is the only way,” Shen Ye said firmly.

    The two looked up.

    Between heaven and earth.

    Crimson beams of destruction appeared one after another.

    The earth was dissected.

    All human-populated cities were being destroyed.

    Fu Wangchen sighed and shook his head:

    “Those two people… are not easy to deal with, and they have always coveted my Haoyang Heavenly Palace’s various inheritances, including the Heaven-Shaking Art.”

    “Sect Master, the Haoyang Stone said there’s only one chance to survive, and that’s to do as it just said,” Shen Ye said calmly.

    “Alright, I’ll try!” Fu Wangchen said through gritted teeth.

    He flew forward, taking Shen Ye with him, and with a flash of his figure, left the dense forest.

    A few minutes later.

    High in the sky.

    A man and a woman, two cultivators, stood hundreds of meters apart, their bodies exuding powerful energy fluctuations.

    They both stared beyond the firmament, as if they could see the End Lord of All Eras constantly approaching this world.

    “Two Sect Masters! Please come over.”

    Fu Wangchen shouted loudly.

    “What do you want to say, Sect Master Fu, just say it directly. Why do we need to approach?” The male cultivator sneered.

    ——This was the Lord of Guanghan Palace.

    Shen Ye could feel the familiar aura of the Heaven-Swallowing Art on him.

    “Could it be some other idea?” The female cultivator also said.

    ——This was the previous owner of Penglai Mountain.

    Fu Wangchen glanced at Shen Ye.

    Shen Ye loudly said:

    “It is our inherited object, the Haoyang Stone, that has a way to defeat the enemy. Please, both of you, come and discuss.”

    As he spoke, he raised the jade pendant high.

    The male and female cultivators sensed it for a moment, and indeed detected the aura of the Haoyang Stone from the jade pendant.

    And the moment Shen Ye raised the jade pendant—

    The Haoyang Stone actively emitted a sense of pleading.

    “It’s the Haoyang Stone…”

    The male cultivator’s eyes flashed with a hint of greed.

    The female cultivator, however, nodded and said, “Old Fu, I don’t trust you, but the Haoyang Stone would never scheme to harm me for your sake.”

    The two indeed moved, landing to the left and right of Fu Wangchen.

    “Speak, what good strategy do you have to counter the enemy?”

    The male cultivator asked cautiously.

    The woman stood to the side, also forming a defensive spell with her hands.

    Fu Wangchen pointed at Shen Ye:

    “He’s the one who communicates with the Haoyang Stone, he knows what to do.”

    The male and female cultivators’ expressions shifted, and they both looked at Shen Ye.

    Shen Ye sighed:

    “The fusion of the Heaven-Swallowing, Heaven-Shaking, and Heaven-Reaching arts is the only hope of winning.”

    “Fusion?” The male cultivator couldn’t help but sneer, “I thought it was some kind of solution, turns out you want my Guanghan Palace’s Heaven-Swallowing Art.”

    The female cultivator also shook her head and sighed:

    “I’ve cultivated for 3,600 years, and the Heaven-Reaching Art is only just beginning to take shape. If I were to teach this art to them, they wouldn’t have time to cultivate it.”

    Shen Ye patted the back of his head, seemingly troubled.

    “I know, so I have a ridiculous idea—”

    “—Listen to me, this kind of thing is rare, but maybe it can work.”

    He said stubbornly, activating his keyword at the same time.

    Primordial-level keyword.

    Blood-sucking Grandfather!

    Instantly, lines of faint text quietly appeared:

    “You activated the Primordial-level keyword ‘Blood-sucking Grandfather’.”

    “Description: Integrate any existence into a designated target, allowing the designated target to perfectly inherit everything from the former, resulting in a super-evolutionary effect.”

    “A maximum of seven can be fused at one time.”

    “You designated the target: Fu Wangchen.”

    “You integrated the other two cultivators into ‘Fu Wangchen’.”

    “This fusion was successful!”

    “‘Super Fu Wangchen‘ has been born!”

    “Note, his soul will play a dominant role, but it won’t last too long before they separate.”

    “——After all, they are human!”

    It worked!

    Since the three arts couldn’t be fused in time, and couldn’t be fused at all—

    Then just fuse the people directly!

    Shen Ye breathed a great sigh of relief, looking across.

    Only to see the three cultivators, before they could do anything, were suddenly pulled by an invisible force, merging into a completely new person.

    This was a man.

    His hair stood on end, his body radiating power as substantial light, and he let out a hearty laugh at the sky:

    “Hahahaha, I, Super Fu Wangchen, am finally born into this world today!”

    “Be careful, you might touch the barrier,” Shen Ye warned immediately.

    “Barrier? What’s that?” Super Fu Wangchen asked.

    “That is—”

    “Snap!”

    With a soft sound, a pulling force emerged in the void, attempting to take Super Fu Wangchen away.

    Super Fu Wangchen remained unmoved, roaring:

    “This is a critical moment for the life and death of the Immortal Kingdom, no one can take me away!”

    His hands, like lightning, formed three arts.

    Heaven-Shaking Art.

    Heaven-Reaching Art.

    Heaven-Swallowing Art.

    The three arts were completed.

    Several lines of faint text quietly appeared before Shen Ye’s eyes:

    “The other party’s power has broken through the Fourth Epoch, reaching the Fifth Epoch level of the ‘Multilayer Universe’.”

    “A choice can now be made.”

    “Activate the ultimate power of the Fifth Epoch, opening a new epoch;”

    “Or gather the strengths of the previous four epochs to form an incomparable epoch seal, sealing the enemy.”

    Super Fu Wangchen turned to look at Shen Ye and said:

    “With my power, I can know the secrets hidden in the void.”

    “To thank you for bringing me into existence—”

    “I’ll tell you one thing.”

    His voice shifted to a telepathic message:

    “Remember, as the ‘Multilayer Universe’ grows, each time it reaches an epochal stage, a powerful art will awaken.”

    “In previous epochs, it awakened the Heaven-Shaking, Heaven-Swallowing, and Heaven-Reaching arts respectively.”

    “By fusing the three arts, my power exceeds the peak of the epoch, allowing me to activate a new epoch of the ‘Multilayer Universe’, which is a brand new power of the Fifth Epoch.”

    “But now the external enemy is so powerful that if I forcefully open the epoch, I won’t have enough time to save the entire universe—”

    “I must choose to seal.”

    “This is also the ‘Multilayer Universe’s’ ultimate self-preservation move.”

    “Watch!”

    Super Fu Wangchen looked up to the sky, forming a hand seal.

    The Epochal Seal finally took shape.

    It was a cocoon formed of countless threads, emitting a starlike brilliance. The surrounding void constantly shattered and reformed, with various natural dharma realm runes falling and disappearing.

    “Go.”

    Super Fu Wangchen let out a low cry.

    The cocoon vanished in an instant.

    Instantly.

    Lines of faint text frantically leaped out from the void:

    “Epochal Seal activated.”

    “Sealing the ‘End Lord of All Eras’.”

    “You must make a decision whether to let everything experienced by this dream body become reality.”

    “Only one chance!”

    “Miss it and it will never come again.”

    “Please make an immediate decision whether to let everything become reality?”

    Shen Ye was stunned for an instant, his entire being enlightened.

    ——Only if he made the current dream a reality would there be a successful sealing of the End Lord in history!

    So that’s how history was!

    He made a decisive move, opening his mouth to say:

    “This is reality.”

    In an instant.

    Something seemed to happen all around.

    Super Fu Wangchen suddenly turned his head, looking at Shen Ye, and exclaimed:

    “Taiyi Yanming Jiuku Mengshen Palace? You also have the three arts?”

    He instantly moved in front of Shen Ye, pressed one hand on Shen Ye’s shoulder, and quickly said:

    “I’m about to lose control of this fused body, but I can still release my power once more.”

    “——Let us work together to bring forth the power of the Fifth Epoch into the world!”

    Shen Ye agreed after only a moment’s thought.

    The power of the Fifth Epoch—

    What was that?

    If the first four epochs produced the three arts, and the sixth epoch produced the Door, then what about the fifth epoch?

    In the eras he knew of, he had never seen it!

    Could it be—

    “My remaining power can temporarily raise your three arts to the highest stage, but only for a few breaths. You must seize this opportunity.”

    Super Fu Wangchen said.

    “But you are releasing the epochal seal,” Shen Ye said.

    “No problem!”

    As his voice fell.

    Endless brilliance gathered from all directions, all pouring into one of Super Fu Wangchen‘s hands, and then, through his hand, into Shen Ye’s body.

    At this moment.

    Fu Wangchen held up one hand to maintain the construction of the Epoch Seal, and with the other, gathered power to help Shen Ye enhance the Three Arts.

    Shen Ye only felt his body filled with endless power.

    He looked towards the void.

    All the secrets hidden in the void surfaced in his mind.

    He looked up to the sky again.

    Beyond the universe, that End Lord was being entangled by the Epochal Seal, slowly falling into a helpless situation.

    Every doubt and question that arose in his heart immediately transformed into corresponding accurate answers.

    His thoughts were infinitely expanded.

    Unending power.

    Until his soul sensed a feeling of joyful exuberance.

    That was the will of the multilayered universe.

    It was so great, yet so powerless.

    It only had this one chance—

    The power of the Fifth Epoch must be opened, otherwise living beings would never gain strength.

    If that fifth-rank ultimate power had not been born, when the Fifth Epoch ended, living beings would have neither the three arts nor the power of the Fifth Epoch—

    Then the eternal darkness that followed would descend!

    A realization dawned in Shen Ye’s mind.

    He only possessed the full power of the three arts for a few short breaths!

    Grab it!

    He subconsciously reached out his hand, releasing the immense power of the fused three arts.

    This was something that had never appeared in the evolution of the multilayer universe.

    Almost instantly, faint lines of text appeared:

    “The Fifth Epoch has been endowed with the corresponding ultimate power, making it worthy of its name.”

    “The future has changed.”

    As Shen Ye watched, he suddenly saw Super Fu Wangchen‘s body tremble, and with a “snap,” he turned back into three people.

    Time’s up!

    Shen Ye’s expression drastically changed.

    ——The fusion time was over!

    He abruptly looked up at the sky.

    In the universe.

    The Epochal Seal, almost perfectly sealed, lost its power and slowly completed its final closure.

    At the same time.

    The Master of Guanghan Palace let out a hearty laugh, his figure flickering repeatedly as he swiftly flew off into the distant sky.

    “Not good!”

    Shen Ye exclaimed.

    He felt something, quickly looked down—

    The jade pendant on his waist had been stolen!

    “This treasure is excellent, only the virtuous are worthy of possessing it!”

    The proud voice of the Master of Guanghan Palace echoed from afar.

    Before the words finished, an unexpected change occurred—

    Deep in the sky.

    A streak of crimson light shot down, striking the retreating figure and pulling him back.

    Everyone looked up.

    The cocoon finally closed completely.
