Chapter 1479: Fandi's Dead End (Part 1)

Will the poison of the Sky Poison Pearl mutate when it comes into contact with the Devil Qi of the Evil Infant?No one knew.

Due to the existence of "Myriad Tribulations Extinguished," Xia Qingyue guessed that it might, but it was only a conjecture. Even if it didn't, her plan still had a high chance of success; if it did, that would naturally be even better!

And the answer was... yes!In ancient times, the Sky Poison Pearl and the Evil Infant's Annihilation of Myriad Tribulations were both demonic treasures possessing extremely negative powers. If these two terrifying negative powers came into contact, they would stimulate and amplify each other.

Although Qianye Fantian only had residual Devil Qi of the Evil Infant within him, and the poison infused into his body was only a small amount of Sky Poison that had barely recovered over the years, the moment the Sky Poison erupted within the Devil Qi of the Evil Infant, it was like countless fiery meteors plummeting into a dormant volcano.

If it were merely the Devil Qi acting up or the Sky Poison erupting, with Qianye Fantian's power, he might have been able to barely keep calm and resist, but when both erupted simultaneously... for the first time, the Divine Emperor of the Eastern Divine Region felt so clearly that he was falling into an abyss of unimaginable pain and terror.

A golden shadow flickered in the great hall, and Qianye Ying'er appeared like a ghost. Qianye Fantian's state made her slightly frown, and she said in a deep voice, "What's happening?""Poison... His Majesty the Divine Emperor said it's poison!" the Ninth Brahma King urgently exclaimed.

"Poison? Impossible!" Qianye Ying'er said, "There's no poison in this world that could affect Father like this!"As her voice fell, she took a step forward... but then, as if struck by lightning, her foot suddenly recoiled, and a deep look of horror appeared on her face.

A poisonous aura... From Qianye Fantian, she felt an intense poisonous aura. This aura was incredibly terrifying, so much so that she could barely believe it; it was many times more terrifying than "God-Slaying Absolute Misery," the supreme demonic poison she had personally sensed and touched years ago.

"The Sky Poison Pearl... it's the Sky Poison Pearl!"Qianye Fantian, huddled on the ground, raised his head. His face was a terrifying black-green, and in just a few breaths, his entire body was completely soaked in cold sweat.

His Divine Emperor's power was operating without reservation, and the space around him was chaotically distorting because of him. However, his power, as the Divine Emperor of the Eastern Region, was like water brushing against a bedrock when faced with the Devil Qi of the Evil Infant and the Sky Poison power; it could resist and suppress... but it couldn't eliminate even the slightest bit!And as soon as his aura slightly relaxed, the two demons within him would immediately erupt completely.

Even so, Qianye Fantian's eyes and mind remained terrifyingly clear. He roared with a trembling, hoarse voice, "Taking advantage of the opportunity to channel profound energy into my body... to poison me from within... this was... Xia Qingyue and Yun Che's true objective... Ugh ahh!"

In this world, very little could make an existence like Qianye Fantian let out such a painful scream, but his appearance at that moment was entirely like a devil being tormented by the tortures of purgatory. Every moment, his face and body were undergoing terrifying contortions, and beads of sweat poured from him like a torrential rain.

Profound energy entering the body can directly damage internal organs. Therefore, it's only allowed by the most trusted individuals or those who pose no threat. To Qianye Fantian, Yun Che clearly belonged to the latter category; with his cultivation, even if he gathered all his profound energy to directly attack Qianye Fantian's internal organs, he couldn't cause any substantial harm.Furthermore, even if he truly tried to do something, Qianye Fantian would undoubtedly detect it instantly.

Yet, he hadn't detected how Yun Che had managed to infuse the potent poison into his body... not even the slightest bit!This was also the most shocking and incomprehensible thing to him amidst his extreme agony.

"Sky... Poison... Pearl!?" The Ninth Brahma King's expression changed abruptly several times. The news of Yun Che possessing the Sky Poison Pearl had quietly spread since the day the Devil Emperor returned to the world. As one of the Profound Sky Divine Treasures, everyone knew it possessed terrifying poison and purification powers. But... putting aside how terrifying its poison power might be, he also couldn't comprehend how Yun Che had managed to silently poison the Brahma Heaven Divine Emperor.

Qianye Ying'er's gaze was fixed as she muttered, "What a masterful feint... Xia Qingyue, I truly underestimated you!"During Xia Qingyue's first visit, she didn't say a word, yet she completely diverted their attention to the "Primordial Seal of Life and Death."

As for the purification itself, they had treated it as a mere pretense, harbored no caution against it, and never focused their attention on it at all.She and Qianye Fantian were now awakened to the truth... the pretense, it turned out, was their actual objective!Clearly, this was Xia Qingyue and Yun Che's revenge! And they, father and daughter... had actually been tricked by them!

Qianye Ying'er extended her snow-white hand, a golden light flickered, and instantly, the poisonous aura in the space was rapidly suppressed. This made her secretly sigh in relief as she stepped forward and said, "It seems the Sky Poison Pearl's toxicity isn't entirely unsuppressable. Father, how are you?"

"No..." Qianye Fantian, however, shook his head in pain, "Although I can barely suppress it, it... fundamentally cannot be resolved..."*Puu!!*Qianye Fantian suddenly trembled violently all over, then violently spat out a large mouthful of black blood... Instantly, an extremely pungent, foul odor rapidly spread throughout the hall.

Ordinary dark profound energy would not have rendered the two Divine Emperors, Brahma Heaven and Eternal Heaven, helpless and in pain for years. Ordinary poisons could be easily resolved with the power of a Divine Emperor. However, both the Devil Qi of the Evil Infant and the Sky Poison were supreme evil forces from Profound Sky Divine Treasures; even ten Qianye Fantians could not truly resolve them.

After violently spitting out black blood, Qianye Fantian's complexion not only showed no improvement but was covered by an even heavier layer of black aura, and his pupils... clearly had an additional faint, eerie green tint.

Qianye Ying'er was utterly alarmed and quickly shouted, "Ninth, quickly transmit a message to all Brahma Kings in the realm!"A few breaths later, seven auras flew at extreme speed towards the Brahma Heaven Divine Hall.

Without time for much explanation, soon, all Brahma Kings in the realm, a total of eight individuals, sat in a circle around Qianye Fantian. Their immensely powerful Brahma King's energy simultaneously activated, connected, and condensed, jointly suppressing the erupting Sky Poison and rampaging Devil Qi within Qianye Fantian.

Each Brahma King possessed world-shaking power. When the powers of the eight Brahma Kings merged, it was like eight golden flood dragons surging into Qianye Fantian's body. Combined with Qianye Fantian's own Divine Emperor power, the strength of this suppressive force was absolutely beyond ordinary imagination.

This power was sufficient to annihilate all poisonous and evil forces in the world within a short period... no one would doubt that.

Throughout the years Qianye Fantian had been afflicted by the Devil Qi of the Evil Infant, he had often relied on the power of the Brahma Gods and Brahma Kings to suppress it.

But...

Under the combined might of one Divine Emperor and eight Brahma Kings, the Devil Qi and poisonous aura were indeed rapidly suppressed, gradually weakening. As the poisonous aura and Devil Qi were completely restrained, just when they thought they would temporarily subside, they suddenly counterattacked, like two utterly enraged demon gods...

The Sky Poison aura, like climbing lightning, ruthlessly invaded the bodies of the eight Great Brahma Kings along their eight profound energies.

Eight sinister emerald lights burst forth from the bodies of the eight Great Brahma Kings. They simultaneously opened their eyes, their entire bodies trembling and contorting in the sudden eruption of potent poison and agony...

Moon God Realm, Divine Emperor's bedchamber.

Back in the Moon God Realm, Yun Che had become much more silent. Perhaps due to the immense energy expended during the purification, he had been resting with his eyes closed, remaining silent for a long time.

"Master, you seem troubled. Are you worried about something?" He Ling asked softly.

Yun Che replied, "Not exactly. I've just encountered something very difficult to understand."In the past, whenever he faced something difficult to comprehend, he would habitually ask Jasmine. Now, He Ling was by his side, but He Ling was different from Jasmine; at least, so far, he didn't have the deeply ingrained subconscious reliance on He Ling that he had for Jasmine.

"Difficult to understand? Are you struggling with how to deal with the return of the Devil God?" He Ling asked again.

"Not that." Yun Che opened his eyes. It was quiet here, only him, with no sign of Xia Qingyue. "Recently, I've had a few strange dreams. The things in them were absurd. Absurd dreams should be forgotten in an instant, but I remember them with incredible clarity. Every image, every word."

"Remembering dreams is quite normal," He Ling said softly. "Why are you so concerned, Master?"

"I wasn't overly concerned before," Yun Che exhaled slightly. "But on my way back to the Moon God Realm earlier, I inexplicably glimpsed strange scenes that had appeared in my dreams."

"This situation has occurred repeatedly, and I'm really finding it hard to convince myself that it's all just illusion and delusion... Yet, those things contradict my memory and understanding; they simply can't be real, but they always evoke an inexplicable, strange feeling in me..." Yun Che shook his head.

Something that couldn't possibly be real, appearing in dreams and fleeting visual moments, yet it was indelibly imprinted on his soul, refusing to fade. This feeling was indeed extremely strange and inexplicable, something Yun Che had never experienced before.

He Ling was also utterly confused by this and couldn't empathize. But she could sense Yun Che's unease. She thought for a moment and said, "Master, you didn't seem to have this kind of worry before. When did this start?"

"..." Yun Che touched his chin and slowly said, "He Ling, you've asked a good question."

"Huh?"

Yun Che said no more, suddenly falling silent.

Right... when did it start? What was the trigger?

Outside the bedchamber, Xia Qingyue stood on the palace roof, bathed in moonlight, her beautiful eyes indifferent. No one knew what she was thinking, and she had maintained this posture for several hours.

At this moment, a moonbeam flickered before her, revealing a young girl's figure.

The girl's aura was slightly disordered, and she was breathing faintly. Xia Qingyue's eyes shifted, and she softly said, "It seems there's already a result."

"Yes," Lian Yue respectfully replied, "News from the Brahma Heaven God Realm indicates that the Brahma Heaven Divine Emperor has been afflicted by a potent poison, and both the Devil Qi of the Evil Infant and the poison erupted simultaneously. Afterward, eight Brahma Kings gathered, intending to suppress the Devil Qi and poison for the Brahma Heaven Divine Emperor, but all were invaded by the potent poison."

"Oh?" Xia Qingyue's eyes flashed. "There's actually a pleasant surprise."Hearing Lian Yue's words, Xia Qingyue's heart was far from as calm as she appeared. That the eight Great Brahma Kings would collectively suppress the poison for Qianye Fantian was no surprise to her. However, she had absolutely not expected that all eight of these Great Brahma Kings would also be poisoned!

The power of the Sky Poison... without physical contact, it could actually directly invade bodies by following profound energy in reverse!?No wonder not a single one of the gods and devils of that era could escape "Myriad Tribulations Extinguished"!

"The Brahma Heaven God Realm has now sealed itself off, and our people find it difficult to approach the core area, but it's clear that the Brahma Heaven Divine Emperor and the eight Great Brahma Kings are in an extremely bad state."

"I understand. You may withdraw. Oh, and..." Xia Qingyue's eyes glinted darkly, and her voice suddenly turned cold, "If anyone from the Brahma Heaven God Realm arrives, even a Brahma King, forcefully drive them away... except for Qianye Ying'er!"

"Yes!"

Lian Yue left silently. Xia Qingyue's chest heaved violently once, then she gently exhaled.

As Qianye Fantian's poison flared, the Devil Qi of the Evil Infant simultaneously erupted, and subsequently, all eight Brahma Kings were also poisoned.

This way, facing the power of the Sky Poison that could not be dispelled no matter what, and the "mutation" she had warned Qianye Fantian about, the Brahma Heaven God Realm would face the terror of its Divine Emperor and eight Brahma Kings being destroyed.

Under this unprecedented terror, could the Brahma Heaven God Realm, having just lost three Brahma Gods and being further pushed down by the Southern Sea Divine Emperor, truly hold on for more than twenty hours?
