Chapter 1948: Death and Life (Part 2)

Faced with Chi Wuyao's command for them to sacrifice their lives, the Three Yama Ancestors displayed not resistance or fear, but an immediate surge of excitement and ferocity.

"As long as it saves our Master, never mind our lives, we're willing to be ground to dust!" Yama One roared.

Yama Two gasped, "Our lives exist for our Master! To die for our Master is our greatest honor!"

Yama Three, even more urgently, collapsed before the Devil Queen, trembling. "Devil Queen, please tell us quickly how to save our Master! Please save Master!"

Yama Wanli, Yama Wanhun, Yama Wangui.

The three founding ancestors of the Yama Devil Realm were the longest-living and highest-ranking figures of their time.

Later, they became Yama One, Yama Two, and Yama Three by the Cloud Emperor's side, gradually forgetting their original names.

To save Yun Che, they were willing to abandon their lives of 800,000 years without the slightest hesitation.

Although this was absolute loyalty born from the slave seal, it was still impossible not to be moved.

"Good." Chi Wuyao nodded slightly. "The power of the Void God Needle will transport you to your Master's side. What you must do, before your bodies are torn apart, is to do everything you can to make your Master break free from that person, understand?!"

As long as Yun Che could be freed from Mo Beichen's grasp, he could be transported out of this desperate situation using the Void God Needle's power.

"Understood! Understood!!" Yama One, Yama Two, and Yama Three nodded vigorously in unison. Black light pulsed agitatedly around them, and the monstrous, twisting shadows of Yama Devils appeared behind them. Their eyes showed only impatience and ferocity.

"I'm going too!" Qianye Ying'er said, her voice icy and her gaze resolute. "Those three might not be enough!"

"Let us go."

As soon as she finished speaking, the voices of Qianye Wugu and Qianye Bingzhu sounded from behind her.

"For the future of the Cloud Emperor and the God Realm, the Devil Queen must not take risks," Qianye Bingzhu said. "For the future of Qianye, the God Emperor must also preserve herself."

Qianye Wugu said, "When we acted before, the opponent seemed very wary of our golden Brahma light. This person might react similarly upon first sight."

These two experienced individuals had not overlooked the severe loss of composure by Nan Zhaoming and Nan Zhaoguang when they previously encountered the Brahma Divine Power.

Chi Wuyao's expression shifted in surprise.

If that were the case, the hope of success would undoubtedly increase.

"We implore the God Emperor, allow us to depart peacefully."

Qianye Wugu and Qianye Bingzhu spoke with voices like ancient bells, their eyes as serene as old wells.

They knew well that this path led only to death, with no chance of survival, yet, like the Three Yama Ancestors, they showed no fear of death. Beyond their composure, there was only a profound earnestness.

Qianye Ying'er parted her lips, momentarily unable to speak.

Chi Wuyao reached out and grasped Qianye Ying'er. She slowly nodded towards them, saying, "Then we entrust ourselves to you two seniors."

Returning the nod, Qianye Wugu and Qianye Bingzhu stood by the Three Yama Ancestors. Their palms were placed over their chests, their entire Brahma Divine Power fully activated. From the deepest parts of their profound veins, the most fervent golden Brahma light of their lives shone forth.

"Send us," Qianye Wugu said calmly.

"Meiyin..."

Chi Wuyao spoke, her gaze sweeping over Yama One, Yama Two, Yama Three, Qianye Wugu, and Qianye Bingzhu. She knew her next command would send them to their doom.

Losing these five ancestors would undoubtedly be an immense loss for Yun Che and the entire God Realm.

But she had no other choice.

Even if it meant sacrificing the entire God Realm to gain a chance to save Yun Che, she would not hesitate.

"Wait!"

Qianye Ying'er's voice suddenly rang out.

She looked at the backs of Qianye Wugu and Qianye Bingzhu and whispered, her voice trembling slightly, "Great-Grandfather, Grandfather... I, Qianye Ying'er, swear by my name, if I survive this calamity, I will surely restore the Qianye lineage to its peak glory."

For many years, she had only been Yun Qianying, but today, she once again uttered her former name, "Qianye Ying'er."

Once governing the Brahma Heaven God Realm only for Yun Che, today she also re-acknowledged her Qianye name and Qianye blood.

As if lightly brushed by a chilly wind, Qianye Wugu and Qianye Bingzhu's backs trembled silently.

They simultaneously closed their eyes, their ancient eyelashes gently stirring tears they could not hold back.

They had been emperors for a lifetime, yearned their whole lives, seen countless changes, and become indifferent to life and death... yet they were still overcome by this single call from their dearest kin.

They smiled. Death, which they had never feared, now seemed so insignificant and meaningless.

*Crack crack crack!*

The sound of bones shattering finally ceased.

All of Yun Che's meridians throughout his body were shattered, and not a single bone remained unbroken.

"A Divine Sovereign cultivation, yet capable of unleashing the might of a Divine Extinction Realm," Mo Beichen murmured slowly. His power pierced through Yun Che's entire body, intending to truly touch the divine marks of the Creation God and Devil Emperor. "Come, let me see if you, in this state, can still bring me any surprises."

Yun Che's pupils had stopped constricting. Mo Beichen, so close, was merely a dim outline in his blurry vision.

"Meiyin, transport!"

Chi Wuyao's devil command left her lips. At the same time, her seductive eyes suddenly unleashed an intensely thick, dark demonic light.

The Nirvana Devil Soul was unleashed completely without reservation. It pierced through the Demigod aura, rapidly approaching Mo Beichen.

The spatial power of the Void God Needle was also released at this moment. A crimson divine light enveloped the five individuals, and in a flash, it carried them away, vanishing from their original spot.

An extremely abnormal soul fluctuation instantly alerted Mo Beichen. He sharply turned his gaze towards Chi Wuyao, releasing his soul power in response.

In that very instant, a crimson light suddenly flashed above him.

Five figures descended from thin air.

With spatial transference that left no ripples or traces, even Mo Beichen could not have detected or prepared for it.

Mo Beichen had always been radiating his Demigod aura. At such close range, even for a Divine Emperor, every inch of space here was an utterly terrifying nightmare.

The moment the Three Yama Ancestors and Two Brahma Ancestors appeared, the terrifying Demigod pressure felt like a thousand blades piercing their bodies. Their bodies and internal organs felt as if they were instantly torn apart.

Their accumulated power was also decisively unleashed in that instant.

Qianye Wugu and Qianye Bingzhu were engulfed in golden light, transforming into two golden scorching suns that plunged towards Mo Beichen.

Brahma Soul Extinction!

This was the Brahma Soul Extinction unleashed by two former Brahma Heaven Divine Emperors, using their lives, Brahma souls, and all their Brahma Divine Power. Even under the annihilation of the Demigod aura, it still shone with golden Brahma light across millions of miles of the starfield.

The very instant they appeared, they unleashed their ultimate power, at the cost of sacrificing their lives.

What they sought was not to contend with Mo Beichen, but to exchange for even a single instant of hope at the most grievous cost.

Suddenly, an entirely unexpected aura appeared within arm's reach, naturally startling Mo Beichen.

As the Brahma light burned the air and fell from above his head, his eyes, which seemed to hold only arrogance and disdain, constricted violently, just like Nan Zhaoming and Nan Zhaoguang before. What was reflected in them was a profound awe and shock.

His body also trembled violently, and his Demigod aura, more terrifying than a thousand nightmares, largely collapsed in response.

*Boom—*

Mo Beichen, dazed and startled, was heavily struck on the head by the two golden scorching suns.

These were two of the most extreme Brahma Divine Powers in the current age, embodying the most extreme control of Qianye Wugu and Qianye Bingzhu, the two great Brahma Heaven Divine Emperors. Despite the extremely close distance, the unleashed power caused only minimal impact to Yun Che.

Even one as strong as Mo Beichen, momentarily flustered and shocked, found it extremely difficult to bear being struck directly on the head by two Brahma Soul Extinctions.

His mind reeled. His neck snapped violently backward, and his cervical vertebrae were severely dislocated. His body plummeted, his upper body violently arching backward, causing his entire body to lose balance.

Golden light dazzled, reflecting in Qianye Ying'er's eyes the purest gold, just as they had been years ago.

Qianye Wugu and Qianye Bingzhu, two former Brahma Heaven Divine Emperors, were gone forever. With their final lives and power, they left behind two golden seeds of hope for this world.

"Chaaah!!"

Amidst the golden light that filled the sky and shone upon the world, Yama One, Yama Two, and Yama Three let out the most ear-splitting, soul-rending screams of their lives, lunging at Mo Beichen.

Their demonic eyes were endlessly ferocious. The Yama Devil shadows around them were so agitated they seemed about to shatter, and their palms, under the completely rampant Yama Devil power, transformed into the most terrifying Hell Devil Claws.

Mo Beichen, in his current state, had no time to make any defensive moves and was simultaneously pounced upon by the Three Yama Ancestors.

Yama One pounced on Mo Beichen's right arm, his demonic mouth wide open, his withered, black-glowing teeth viciously biting into the wrist.

Yama Two pounced on Mo Beichen's right shoulder, his arms hooked tightly onto the arm bone, as the Yama Devil's destructive power exploded wildly.

Mo Beichen was gripping Yun Che with his right arm!

Yama Three directly pounced on Mo Beichen's face, his withered, skinny arms locking tightly around Mo Beichen's bent neck. His skull-like head opened into an exaggerated, terrifying dark maw, savagely biting down on the crown of Mo Beichen's head. The Yama Devil power, erupting with all his might, pierced directly into Mo Beichen's skull.

Disoriented, weakened, unbalanced... the three sudden surges of Yama Devil power exploded wildly on his body. Nearly a hundred dark demonic lights erupted from Mo Beichen's right shoulder to his right arm, and his arm, previously infused with Demigod power, abruptly bent. The five fingers gripping Yun Che's throat lost strength and deformed.

Yet, he was ultimately Mo Beichen, an Abyssal Knight with Demigod power.

His loosened fingers suddenly tightened again in the next instant. Mo Beichen's bent head did not turn back, but his still trembling, horrified eyes faintly gathered a line of fierce light. His rapidly dissipating Demigod aura, by sheer force of will, released another sliver.

For Mo Beichen, this was a completely unexpected surprise attack. Coupled with the soul-shaking terror brought by the Brahma Divine Light, it was impossible for him to react in that instant, no matter what.

And these reactions of his were more an instinctive countermeasure under physical attack, the inherent instinct of a Demigod body.

Although this power was less than one-tenth of Mo Beichen's full strength, it was still Demigod power after all.

For the Three Yama Ancestors clinging to Mo Beichen, it was still an extremely terrifying nightmare power.

"Screeeech!"

As the Three Yama Ancestors suddenly let out sharp screams, their demonic bodies twisted and broke apart, blood and bones flying everywhere.

Yama One and Yama Two's arms, tightly wrapped around Mo Beichen, were completely shattered, but demonic light connected the shattered bones, refusing to let go in the slightest. Their gaping mouths, with all their withered teeth shattered, still bit fiercely into his body.

Any living being will instinctively protect its head first.

A Demigod was no exception.

Yama Three, who pounced and bit Mo Beichen's head, bore twice the force of Yama One and Yama Two.

His withered body twisted violently like agitated water. With a heart-rending shriek, his Yama Devil body was forcibly torn into two sections, one part flying to the left, the other to the right, away from Mo Beichen's head.

"Old Devil!!!"

The three Yama Ancestors had coexisted for 800,000 years; Yama Three's body being severed felt as if their own had been. Yama One and Yama Two let out soul-piercing demonic wails.

"Aaaah... save Master!"

Yama Three, his body severed, shrieked desperately. Under the impending death, his rapidly dissipating Yama Devil power, driven by his overwhelming conviction, miraculously surged beyond his lifelong limits.

It pulled his severed upper body to abruptly lunge at Mo Beichen's head again.

His Yama Devil claw, condensed with dark demonic light, savagely stabbed into Mo Beichen's eye amidst his continuous monstrous roars.

Eyeballs, for a Demigod, were also the most vulnerable parts of the entire body.

With the Yama Devil claw, infused with Yama Three's despair and conviction, directly piercing his eyeball, Mo Beichen suddenly let out his first scream of agony since arriving in this world.

And in that instant, Chi Wuyao, who had already unleashed all her Nirvana Devil Soul, her eyes gleaming with deep black light, poised for action.

Though the five ancestors were powerful, the gap in cultivation level often could not be bridged by numbers... even for a mere moment.

And among them, the only one who could surpass Mo Beichen in terms of power level was her Nirvana Devil Soul!

There was no more perfect timing than this.

Under the full outburst of soul power, the Nirvana Devil Soul directly assaulted Mo Beichen's soul sea.

With Brahma light shocking his soul, his head ringing, power dissipating, body unbalanced, darkness devouring his body, and an eyeball pierced...

At this moment, he was again invaded by the Devil Queen's soul!

His Demigod divine soul, inherently resilient beyond comprehension, was invaded by the Nirvana Devil Soul, and a world-shaking demonic roar of an ancient Devil Emperor echoed within his soul sea...

"Screeeech!"

His soul sea collapsed. For at least those extremely brief moments, all his clarity and reason were completely annihilated.

When a person is left with only bodily instincts, with their mind reeling and an eyeball pierced, the action they will instinctively take is to cover their eyes and head.

Mo Beichen was no exception.

His hand, gripping Yun Che's throat, suddenly released. He frantically pressed it to his eyes.

Qianye Wugu and Qianye Bingzhu had already turned to Brahma ashes. Yama One and Yama Two's internal organs were completely shattered, and Yama Three's body was severed. All of them had completely lost their lives.

Once their conviction to protect their master faltered, it would be the moment of their demise.

And what these five ancestors had yearned for with their dying breaths was this very moment.

With blood-streaked, tearing demonic eyes, Yama One clearly watched Yun Che break free from Mo Beichen's grip. He shrieked, and his shattered demonic claw swung out like lightning, pushing Yun Che far away.

Shui Meiyin's consciousness had never been so clear and focused. She had not made a sound from beginning to end.

Only the Void God Needle in her hand continuously shone with the purest crimson light.

The moment Yun Che broke free from Mo Beichen's grasp, a crimson light instantly erupted. It pierced through the air and enveloped Yun Che, carrying him away from his spot, vanishing from Mo Beichen's Demigod space.

And in another flash of crimson light, he appeared by her side.

Qianye Ying'er fiercely lunged forward and tightly embraced Yun Che, her entire body trembling uncontrollably.

This time, she had come so infinitesimally close to losing him forever.

It was a fear she never wanted to experience again.

Yun Che lay motionless. All his meridians and bones were broken, and his body was covered in cracks. His half-open eyes held no light; he had completely lost consciousness.

Any other Divine Sovereign in this world would have already died from such severe injuries.

"Go!" Chi Wuyao retrieved her devil soul, enduring the chaos in her mind to let out a soul-piercing demonic command.

Crimson light reappeared, enveloping Shui Meiyin, Chi Wuyao, Qianye Ying'er, Mu Xuanyin, Caizhi, and Yun Che.

Their figures then vanished from this place of despair and nightmare.

Only the lingering golden Brahma light remained, along with screams like those from a purgatory of devils.
