Long Ling's initiative was somewhat unexpected.
But thinking about it carefully, it wasn't that surprising.
If what Qing Luan said was true, the demon race truly needed a powerful existence to stabilize the world.
Otherwise, there might not be a demon race in the future.
What about ten thousand years, twenty thousand years... or a hundred thousand years?
The human race might still be glorious, but the fate of the demon race was uncertain.
"Come on."
Chen Fan was not one to be coy.
"Boom."
The River of Rules appeared.
"Anyone who wishes to sever their Dao may enter."
Chen Fan's tone became much more serious: "But there's one thing I need to make clear beforehand. If I can never break through to the Emperor Realm in this lifetime, your cultivation will also be capped at the Emperor Realm."
"Understood."
In the River of Rules, Chen Fan was the master.
It was impossible for anyone's cultivation to surpass his; they would be suppressed.
Chen Fan represented the ultimate limit.
"Then let's begin."
This was the first time so many people were entering together.
There was still some pressure.
"Whoosh."
Long Ling, as the eldest sister, was the first to fly in.
Huang Die followed closely, and then everyone else plunged into the River of Rules.
"Swish."
The water flowed, carrying a dense power of rules.
In an instant, dozens of people turned into skeletons.
"Ah."
Screams rang out.
Although they were screams, they were tinged with a hint of barely concealed excitement.
"Rules, so many rules, it's like bathing in an ocean of rules..."
"This is amazing, I feel like I can also become a Titled Emperor."
"Haha, I want to be stronger, I want to awaken my inherited bloodline..."
"..."
Excited voices rose one after another.
Then, these people all transformed into their demonic beast forms.
Long Ling...
"Boom."
A fire dragon, a hundred zhang in size, appeared.
That was Long Ling; her true form was a demonic beast, a fire dragon.
"Roar."
At this moment, the fire dragon roared and plunged into the River of Rules.
"Buzz."
In the human rule domain.
Long Ling intended to merge into the fire path region but was repelled.
Chen Fan said, "The rule domains of humans and demons are different. You need to find your own Great Dao from the chaotic rules."
He had forgotten to mention this earlier.
The power of the Five Elements of Fire was extremely strong.
It had actually caused cracks to appear in Long Ling's demonic body.
"Cough."
In Long Ling's enormous dragon eyes, there was a deep resentment.
He hadn't said it sooner.
Chen Fan gave an embarrassed smile, having forgotten.
"Caw."
A divine bird appeared and landed in the River of Rules.
That was Qing Luan.
Following the two, everyone else entered the River of Rules.
"Rumble."
The River of Rules erupted in a great turmoil.
The chaotic rule domain was torn open, and in an instant, the river water surged to the heavens.
The rule Great Daos of the demon race directly appeared, and everyone found their own Great Dao.
A single drop of water could be a Great Dao.
It was just that Chen Fan was unfamiliar with it and lacked the ability to strengthen it.
At this moment, with the entry of the many, the Great Daos were immediately strengthened.
In an instant, dozens of rule Great Daos appeared.
"Boom."
At this moment, the River of Rules churned.
The River of Rules, which was already three thousand zhang long, was further expanded.
Its width was also being expanded.
This was a heaven-sent opportunity.
"It's my turn."
Chen Fan's eyes gleamed.
Without hesitation, he sat down in the River of Rules.
Rumble.
The River of Rules was in violent turmoil.
All the rules within the river were intricately connected to him.
The stronger the River of Rules became, the stronger his cultivation would be.
"Buzz."
Ten halos appeared on Chen Fan's body.
These were halos formed by the fusion of Dao into the body.
Normally, after breaking through to the Emperor Realm, cultivators could no longer open Dao acupoints.
However, Chen Fan's Dao acupoints were continuously opening.
"Huh?"
Chen Fan was surprised.
But he knew this was a good thing.
This time, the primary direction of strengthening was the physical body.
A layer of golden light erupted from his pores, rendering him golden.
Physical Body Halo.
There were no extra Dao acupoints, only one.
This was the power provided by the demonic beasts for him.
...
Just as Chen Fan's cultivation grew stronger.
In Sword City, the divided northern and southern regions.
In the Northern Region, an Unfortunate Person was walking down the street with a woman.
The woman wore a veil, and she exuded an ethereal, immortal aura.
She seemed like a celestial being who had descended to the mortal world.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, the woman looked up.
Her eyes instantly burst with dazzling golden light as she looked towards the central area of Sword City.
The Southern District.
The moment the woman exclaimed, a young man also raised his head in confusion.
At this moment, a star suddenly appeared in the sky above the City Lord's Mansion.
Yes, you read that correctly, it was a star.
A purple star, emitting a faint halo.
The purple star seemed to emerge from another dimension, like a child slowly extending its body from another space.
This purple star, as if carrying a trace of curiosity and confusion, slowly squeezed out of space.
At this moment, heaven and earth trembled.
The entire world seemed to be enveloped by a hazy aura.
...
The hazy halo spread out.
Upon sensing that aura, the two could no longer stand still.
The opportunity to become an Emperor had appeared.
No one needed to explain; just by sensing that aura, they understood.
"Go!" the woman suddenly commanded.
The Unfortunate Person dared not delay. The young mistress, at this moment, lacked her usual ladylike demeanor and appeared quite ferocious.
A Celestial Blade appeared, and the Unfortunate Person shot into the sky, heading towards the direction of the central city.
However, before he could go far, he was enveloped by the hazy halo. The Celestial Blade slowed, as if falling into some state of contemplation.
It truly was... the opportunity to become an Emperor.
The woman, far from being surprised, was overjoyed...
The next moment.
"Boom."
She directly left the area covered by the halo.
An Emperor's light erupted from her body, blocking the power of the halo.
Meanwhile, in the southern district, the black-clothed youth strode through the air, charging into the halo-covered area almost simultaneously with the girl.
An Emperor's light also enveloped him.
At this moment, they could no longer pay attention to anything else; their eyes were fixed on the purple star.
On either side, they saw each other, their eyes flashing with intense fighting spirit.
Two immensely powerful forces, spanning heaven and earth.
"Ch."
A hand as white as jade suddenly appeared, reaching for the star.
The veiled woman emerged, attempting to seize the star.
"Boom."
At this moment, a black fist appeared.
The fist struck the palm.
With a roar, a destructive storm erupted between the fist and the palm.
"Huang Qi."
The woman's face darkened. "You dare to stop me?"
Her voice was exceptionally beautiful, like the chirping of a hundred birds, very pleasing to the ear.
"Qing Yu."
The man stepped out, a smile on his face that felt as refreshing as a spring breeze. "Do I need to fear you?"
His handsome face was adorned with a pair of eyes as dark as ink.
Huang Qi, the young master of the Central Continent Imperial Palace.
Qing Yu, the young master of the Eastern Continent Imperial Palace.
Both of them had Heavenly Emperors behind them.
Though they were speaking, their hands moved without pause.
"Bang bang bang."
The two clashed, their movements so fast they were dazzling.
