Chapter 1646: Five Emperors Shatter the Void (Grand Finale)
Unknowingly, long years had passed since the legendary war between the two emperors.
Over these decades, the Dou Qi continent had once again become vibrant, with various geniuses emerging one after another, astounding the world. However, no matter how brilliant the descendants were, it seemed a figure still stood above them all.
Emperor Yan, Xiao Yan.
The man who had saved the entire Central Plains from the hands of Emperor Hun, and now the strongest expert on the Dou Qi continent.
Although his figure had not been seen on the continent for many years, the legend was still passed down by word of mouth. The name of Emperor Yan resounded in every corner of the Dou Qi continent.
...
At the peak of the Central Plains stood a mountain that had burst forth from the earth during the war between the two emperors. It was known as the Double Emperor Mountain by the world. This mountain was insurmountably high, and upon it seemed to be a special energy barrier that no one could forcibly break through to enter. Rumors said this was the seclusion place of Emperor Yan, Xiao Yan.
At the mountain's summit was a manor. Within the manor, a figure clad in black stood with his hands behind his back, gazing up at the endless void. No energy fluctuations emanated from him, yet against this backdrop, even heaven and earth seemed to pale in comparison.
"Father and Senior Zhu Kun should be arriving soon, right?" A graceful, elegant figure suddenly emerged behind the man in black, smiling sweetly.
"Mn."
The black-clad figure turned around, looked at that beautiful countenance capable of making all things lose their color, and also smiled slightly. "Succeeded?"
"Mn, thanks to you opening that mysterious dimensional passage and absorbing the Source Qi from there. Otherwise, I'm afraid no one in this world would still be able to reach the Dou Emperor level." Xun'er nodded gently, lightly raised her delicate hand, and instantly, hundreds of flowers bloomed in the courtyard, brimming with vibrant vitality. Such fluctuations were clearly not something a peak Dou Saint expert could possess.
"Cai Lin should be coming out of seclusion soon too..."
Xiao Yan smiled. As his voice fell, a vast, radiant七彩 glow erupted from the depths of the courtyard. The colored light condensed, forming into an enchanting, graceful figure who appeared before Xiao Yan.
"After so many years in seclusion, I've finally broken through..." Cai Lin lazily stretched, chuckling娇媚地. "So this is the level of a Dou Emperor? It's indeed completely different from the Dou Saint level."
"Haha, has Sister Cai Lin also reached the Dou Emperor level? Truly a cause for celebration. Thanks to Brother Xiao Yan, my wish has finally been fulfilled..." As soon as Cai Lin finished speaking, the space in the sky suddenly twisted rapidly, and then two figures stepped out from the void. They were none other than Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun. Although the two hadn't changed much from before, their auras were far beyond what they used to be. That feeling... they were actually Dou Emperors too!
Five Dou Emperors!
The Dou Emperor experts, who had supposedly become extinct on the Dou Qi continent, now appeared—five at once!
If this news spread, the entire Dou Qi continent would be shaken.
"You both long possessed the strength to impact the Dou Emperor level. It was only due to the lack of Source Qi that you couldn't advance further. As long as that problem was solved, advancing to Dou Emperor was a natural progression." Xiao Yan said with a light smile.
"Hehe, but even though we've entered the Dou Emperor level, there still seems to be a big gap compared to you? What level exactly are you at now?" Zhu Kun asked somewhat curiously. He found that even after stepping into the Dou Emperor level, he still couldn't see through Xiao Yan's strength. It seemed that after decades of cultivation, the latter had made further progress.
"This... I don't know either..." Xiao Yan also felt a bit helpless. Dou Emperor experts were originally the strongest in this world. What lay beyond was unknown to anyone. However, he also understood that his current self was indeed much stronger than when he had first advanced to the Dou Emperor level. An opponent like Hun Tian Di from back then probably wouldn't pose the slightest obstacle to him now.
"In that other dimension, there might be an answer."
Xiao Yan lifted his head, looked into the endless void, and murmured.
"I'm very curious!" Zhu Kun grinned, a strange fervor in his eyes. In this world, they were the ultimate powerhouses. However, in that mysterious dimension, perhaps this was just the beginning of the journey.
"Tempted?" Xiao Yan smiled.
"Aren't you too?" Zhu Kun laughed.
"Since you've come here today, I assume you've arranged everything? You should understand that dimension is countless times more dangerous than the Dou Qi continent. There, we won't be the ultimate powerhouses." Xiao Yan said softly.
"The Ancient Void Dragon clan is fully capable under Zi Yan's management. With the Source Qi you left her, reaching the Dou Emperor level is only a matter of time. I'll go to that dimension first to scout the path for her." Zhu Kun said.
"The Gu Clan has also produced some promising newcomers now. With Gu Qingyang's prestige, I believe he can manage the Gu Clan well." Gu Yuan said with a faint smile. "After all these years for the Gu Clan, it's time for me to go experience that excitement for myself."
Hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled, turned his head to look at Cai Lin and Xun'er, and asked, "What about you two?"
"Those little fellows, even without us, no one on the Dou Qi continent would dare provoke them now. Of course, we're following you. We've made it clear to them; when they eventually step into the Dou Emperor level in the future, they will naturally find a way to seek us out..." Xun'er and Cai Lin looked at each other, both smiling sweetly.
Xiao Yan nodded, took a deep breath, raised his head to look at the endless void, and the smile on his face gradually became radiant. It was a kind of smile that hadn't appeared for many years.
"In that case, let's set off. These decades of rest have almost made me forget the feeling of battle..."
Xiao Yan's body slowly rose into the air. As he ascended, the empty sky suddenly surged with thick clouds. The sky for tens of thousands of miles around darkened in an instant. Countless experts looked up in shock and awe towards the Double Emperor Mountain range. There, they felt an extremely terrifying energy fluctuation.
Under the gaze of countless eyes on the earth, the endless void above the Double Emperor Mountain range began to twist violently. The thick clouds squirmed, finally transforming into a dark channel. From within the channel emanated a scent that made one tremble with fear.
That channel led to another dimension!
Looking at the dark, black hole-like channel, Xiao Yan flicked his finger, and four beams of light shot into the hands of Xun'er and the other three. "Exchange Soul Jades and leave your soul imprints on them. This way, if any accidents happen, we can know each other's life or death situation."
As Xiao Yan spoke, his expression was particularly grave. Even he felt danger from that mysterious world, so he had to be extra cautious.
"When entering the channel, follow me closely. Do not separate."
Xiao Yan turned his head and said solemnly to Cai Lin and Xun'er. No one knew what was in that mysterious dimensional world. Although they were invincible on the Dou Qi continent, it wouldn't be the same there. If they were separated, he would absolutely not feel at ease with Xun'er and Cai Lin alone in that unknown world!
"Mn."
Cai Lin and Xun'er also understood the importance of the matter and nodded immediately.
"Let's go."
After giving all the instructions, Xiao Yan took another deep breath, said no more, grabbed Cai Lin and Xun'er's hands, and his figure moved, transforming into a black streak that shot like lightning towards the dark black hole. Behind him, Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun also gritted their teeth and followed closely.
Countless eyes watched the few streaking meteor-like lights cross the sky. Some seemed to understand Xiao Yan and the others' intentions, and immediately, countless figures knelt down on the continent below.
"We respectfully bid farewell to Emperor Yan!"
"We respectfully bid farewell to the Alliance Chief!"
The mighty sounds gathered over the Dou Qi continent, soaring into the sky, echoing between heaven and earth for a long time without dispersing.
"Little fellow... the world there will be ten thousand times more exciting than the Dou Qi continent. Hehe, when I also advance to the Dou Emperor level, I'll go take a look at that world too. By then, you must have secured a place for this teacher to enjoy life..."
At the headquarters of the Tian Fu Alliance, Yao Lao gazed at the meteors streaking across the sky and murmured to himself.
