The Vermilion Bird God King Reappears, Only 3 Years Left!

Chapter 540 The Vermilion Bird God King Reappears, Only Three Hundred Years Left!

The ancient demon realm.

The army of gods and demons is pouring in continuously.

And from those countless fissures in the earth, void demons were also crawling out frantically.

Chen Fan stood in the void, and his divine sense instantly covered the entire Ancient Demon Realm.

The tenth level of the Void Divine Body seems to have transcended all things and risen above the Heavenly Dao.

Although he had only fused with seven laws, Chen Fan was already exuding an aura of supreme power.

This aura brought a sense of peace and tranquility to the vast army of gods and demons that emerged from the Beast Taming Space.

It was as if the Demon King was present, and all calamities would vanish, and all the Void Demons would be reduced to ashes...

……

Led by a group of ancestral gods, the army of gods and demons plowed outwards in all directions, starting from the exit of the Beast Taming Space.

Chen Fan's divine sense had already firmly locked onto the three wildly surging dark forces!

Those three dark forces are none other than the Void Rulers sealed in the Ancient Demon Realm!

Chen Fan remained expressionless and slowly extended his right hand.

The Heaven-Severing Demon Blade, which stood like a colossal pillar supporting the sky, immediately began to tremble violently.

Immediately...

The stones surrounding the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade all cracked and fell with a crash, then rapidly shrank, transforming into a streak of lightning that flew towards Chen Fan like lightning.

"Click!"

Chen Fan gripped the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade in his hand.

The feeling of being connected by blood and flesh...

An indescribable, terrifying power surged wildly in Chen Fan's palm, then quickly swept over his entire body.

Waiting for thousands and thousands of years...

At this moment, the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade was finally in Chen Fan's hand in its complete form!

The blade contains the power of dozens of cosmic Heavenly Daos, making it ten times stronger than it was back then!

All the power merged into one, and was completely under Chen Fan's control!

Xiao Bai immediately entered the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade, making its power even more stable.

However, because Chen Fan retrieved the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade, the seal that suppressed the remnant souls of the three Void Sovereigns was also completely torn apart at this moment.

The three dark forces locked onto by Chen Fan's divine sense immediately soared into the sky and converged together at an incredibly fast speed!

Unlike before...

The gods and demons showed no sign of panic.

The army of gods and demons continued its advance methodically, penetrating deep into the rifts and abysses to clear out the dense swarms of void demons.

In the air, after the three dark forces merged, a man with two horns on his head also appeared.

Despite being separated by millions of miles, his eyes met Chen Fan's.

The man's eyes were extremely complex.

His eyes held a mixture of relief, fear, anger, and disbelief.

Once upon a time, Chen Fan was nothing more than an ant that could be crushed with a flick of his finger in his eyes.

Even when the Demon King invaded the Void and destroyed a group of Void Lords, he never truly took the Demon King seriously.

Even though the Demon King of that time destroyed his true form and then cut it into several large pieces to seal it, he still believed that Chen Fan was only relying on the power of the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade.

But now, facing Chen Fan, he felt like an ant...

This feeling is very unpleasant.

For billions of years, the Void Ruler has never felt so frustrated.

Although he was only a fusion of three remnant souls, the Void Sovereign is still the Void Sovereign. The Void Sovereign is an existence that transcends the Heavenly Dao, and his dignity will never be trampled on by any inferior creature!

No...

The Void Sovereign glanced at the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade in Chen Fan's hand and suppressed the killing intent in his heart.

The complete form of the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade can seal his remnant soul, or it can destroy it.

Moreover, when his other divided souls were destroyed, they also transmitted information, allowing the Void Ruler to understand...

At this moment, even without the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade, Chen Fan was definitely not someone that his three remnant souls, which had been obliterated for countless years, could contend with!

The Void Ruler glanced at Chen Fan with apprehension, then suddenly his body exploded, turning into dust and disappearing without a trace.

Seeing this, Chen Fan laughed.

"The ancient demon realm may be vast, but where can you possibly escape to?"

As the sound rang out, Chen Fan's body also went from solid to ethereal, entering a state of ethereal soul.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Fan's illusory soul completely covered the entire Ancient Demon Realm.

Immediately...

A dazzling flash of light appeared!

"brush!"

A single, earth-shattering strike descended from the void.

"boom!"

It was as if the world was being destroyed...

Where there was nothing before, the Void Ruler with two horns, its eyes filled with uncontrollable rage and panic, was split in two.

The Void Overlord, who had been split in two, was about to speak when his eyes suddenly widened in shock!

"boom!"

"boom!"

Both halves of the body exploded into nothingness at the same time.

In the void, a massive black hole appeared out of nowhere, instantly swallowing up all the surging power from all directions.

Everything returned to calm.

Meanwhile, in the countless rifts and abysses, the countless Void Demons who had placed their hopes on the Void Overlord instantly became like stray dogs, no longer as fierce as before, and all fled for their lives!

soon……

In the ancient demon realm, black holes began to appear one after another.

Black holes have also begun to emerge in several realms, including the Ancient God Realm.

Black holes sucked out endless void demons, devouring them completely...

……

The gods and demons of the heavens floated in the air, speechless for a long time.

In the blink of an eye, the Ancient Demon Realm and several other realms had been completely wiped out.

It was as if the clouds and mist had been parted, and the sun shone brightly in all directions. Gone was the gloom and terror of the past, gone was the oppression and madness of the past.

The gods and demons of the heavens were filled with mixed feelings.

Especially the old demon dragon and those ancient demon gods who awakened in the Frozen Palace...

The four realms, including the Ancient God Realm, were the former God Realm.

They live here.

Later, after Chen Fan killed the Void Ruler, he divided the Void Ruler into several pieces and suppressed and sealed them in these four realms.

Apart from the demon gods guarding these four realms, all the other demon gods have moved to the world opened up by the ancient god ancestor Ye Hongyan... which is now the God Realm.

Now, the four realms, including the Ancient God Realm, have finally been truly reclaimed.

All the Void Demons were wiped out.

The Void Overlord, who had been suppressed here, was also completely annihilated by Chen Fan...

They're finally back!

Old Demon Dragon and his companions wept uncontrollably.

Countless gods and demons cheered and raised their arms.

This day has been so long, so long...

Chen Fan floated in the air, watching this scene in silence.

After a long while, he opened the gate and sent all the gods and demons out.

Sudden……

Ye Hongyan appeared to his right and said softly, "After you retrieved the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade, even if you faced the Void Ruler at his peak, you could have annihilated him on the spot. Why...?"

Ye Hao and the others also gathered around.

They all sensed that something was wrong.

Taking back the Four Realms and devouring the remnant soul of the Void Ruler should have been a cause for universal celebration.

But the dark clouds in Chen Fan's eyes not only did not dissipate, but instead became even thicker than before.

Is the Void Ruler more powerful than people imagine?

Or is there an enemy even more powerful than the Void Overlord, making Chen Fan dare not slack off at all?

The twelve golden wings of the God-King behind Shen Daodao flickered and he said, "Brother Fan, the Four Realms are at peace, and we have retrieved all the divine artifacts. All the divine artifacts are now in their complete forms... I am absolutely confident that I can kill a Void Monarch in one move. Why do you still look so grim?"

"Give me a little more time. Even if I'm alone... cough cough, Haozi and I together can kill a Void Sovereign!"

Ye Hao glanced at Shen Daodao and blinked.

He wouldn't dare boast about something like that.

Unless he is given several hundred more years.

Chu Xuan and Fang Qingqing exchanged glances, their expressions turning somewhat serious.

……

Chen Fan glanced at Shen Daodao, his gaze lingering on the twelve wings of the God King for a moment.

The fully formed twelve-winged God King exudes an aura of dominance, as if he were the only one worthy of respect in the heavens and the earth.

The fluctuations of the laws governing it are extraordinary.

Chu Xuan's sacrificial stele, Shen Hongxiu's Chaos Silk, and the divine weapons in the hands of the others all released a terrifying fluctuation.

They hadn't sensed those terrifying fluctuations of law countless years ago.

Perhaps they were indeed too weak back then.

Or perhaps, the Vermilion Bird God-King deliberately concealed the aura of these divine artifacts.

Regardless, the aura of the divine artifacts like the Twelve Wings of the God King that Chen Fan is experiencing now is completely different from when he was the Demon King in his previous life.

If I had been able to merge with the laws back then and truly control these divine artifacts, killing Void Monarchs would have been as easy as slaughtering dogs!

"These amazing artifacts..."

Chen Fan's expression shifted slightly.

He took a deep breath, and his voice echoed in the minds of Ye Hongyan and the others...

"I crossed the void rift and entered the void, where I spoke with a void overlord for a while and obtained some information."

Chen Fan recounted his conversation with the Void Ruler and the things that the Vermilion Bird God King had told him.

The group, who had just been basking in the joy of victory, felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over their heads.

The bone-chilling cold and the indescribable despair left Ye Hao, Chu Xuan, and the others completely stunned.

Through countless reincarnations, their souls were almost obliterated. They finally cultivated to this level and helped Chen Fan advance further, achieving the peerless Void Divine Body.

Unexpectedly...

After retrieving the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade, according to their speculation, even if Chen Fan had not yet integrated the Eight Laws, he would still be able to kill a Void Ruler at his peak.

But according to the Void Ruler, there is another indescribable being in the endless abyss of the void.

The creation of the void, the formation of void tides, and the emergence of the void ruler should all be related to that terrifying being.

That unimaginable existence was beyond their comprehension.

Does such a thing truly exist in this world?

Is it possible for the void tides alone to annihilate the void ruler?

wrong……

The Void Ruler was born from that Void Tide!

In other words, the Void Overlord might have been created by that terrifying being.

How is that possible?

The presence of over a dozen Void Sovereigns did not add much pressure to the group.

The real pressure is the unpredictable existence in the abyss of the void!

Universes were polluted and eventually collapsed...

One after another, Void Sovereigns were born...

It's all because of that indescribable existence!

The final enemy we faced was actually this kind of being?

Even Ye Hongyan's expression changed at this moment.

……

Chu Xuan's face was ashen as he said, "You also believe the Void Sovereign's words, that we all actually live in a box?"

Chen Fan remained silent.

Ye Hao sneered and said, "Is it as simple as just a box?"

"According to what the Vermilion Bird God-King said, we might be living in the dream of some being!"

"Bullshit!" Li Fengxing retorted angrily, "All my countless lifetimes and tribulations, all those bloody battles, are they all a lie?!"

"Our Celestial Dragon Clan roamed the Divine Realm, stirring up rivers and seas—was it all just a fleeting dream?"

Shen Daodao crossed her arms and said, "I don't believe in such things. Putting aside gods, demons, and mortals, we are all living, breathing beings. How could we possibly be living in someone's dream?"

Shen Hongxiu scoffed and said, "If it really is someone's dream, just cleave the dream open, what's there to be afraid of!"

Everyone: "..."

Only this woman could be so fierce from beginning to end.

"Don't make a sound!" Fang Qingqing, who hadn't said much until now, looked at Chen Fan and asked, "Can you still contact that Vermilion Bird God King?"

Chen Fan shook his head and said, "After we met in the River of Time last time, she disappeared... It seems she realized the situation was a bit bad."

"If we really want to find her, we'll probably have to go to the Void Abyss that the Void Lord mentioned."

Ye Hongyan said in a deep voice, "The tenth level of the Void Divine Body can almost completely turn into nothingness, and is even immune to attacks from the Void Ruler. Can it cope with the Void Tide?"

"I don't know." Chen Fan shook his head again: "Unless one can comprehend the ninth law and truly integrate the nine laws."

"However, even the Heavenly Dao, which has existed for countless years, and the Void Ruler, which has devoured countless Heavenly Daos, can only fuse eight laws..."

"According to what the Void Ruler said, perhaps it was that ineffable being who restricted the fusion of all the laws of Heaven."

"He controls the rules of the entire world."

"Even the will of Heaven cannot defy it."

Everyone fell silent.

This is what it feels like for an ant to face the way of Heaven.

Those who were already able to contend with the Heavenly Dao, along with Chen Fan who had even surpassed the Heavenly Dao, were like ants facing the Heavenly Dao when confronted with that unpredictable being.

A sense of powerlessness rose in the hearts of Chen Fan and the others.

Chen Fan was annoyed by this feeling, but he couldn't shake it off.

The absolute difference in strength almost extinguished his hope.

Just then...

A flash of fire appeared before everyone and condensed into the image of the Vermilion Bird God King.

Everyone: "!!!"

Chen Fan: "Vermilion Bird God King!"

The Vermilion Bird God King smiled slightly and said, "The key to comprehending the Ninth Law and fusing with the Nine Laws lies in these divine weapons and your system."

Everyone: "!!!"

Chen Fan's expression shifted: "I know that you were behind the creation of these divine weapons."

"Could it be that even my system is being manipulated by you...?"

The Vermilion Bird God King smiled and said, "To prevent you from overthinking, I have erased all the memories of how I helped you create the system back then."

"Yes……"

"Whether it's these divine weapons or your system, I'm the one driving all of this behind the scenes."

Chen Fan frowned, opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.

"I know you have complaints..."

The Vermilion Bird God-King sighed and said, "After he fell asleep, this wisp of my divine consciousness was trapped in this world."

"Originally, all I had to do was wait for him to wake up."

"But his dream coalesced into countless universes, and each universe gave birth to countless beings..."

"This is a dream, but all of this is also real."

"The dream fluctuated, eventually forming a void, and then the Void Ruler appeared."

"All these universes, even the void, could be destroyed overnight."

"I can't wake him up..."

"Out of desperation, I transformed into billions of beings and traveled through countless universes, searching for that glimmer of hope."

"At the same time, I meander upwards along the river of time, trying to glimpse the future."

"Finally, I saw glimpses of you in fragments of time..."

"Holy crap!" Shen Hongxiu exclaimed, her eyes wide. "Did you see the final outcome? Did we kill the culprit...?"

Before she could finish speaking, Chen Fan covered her mouth.

Chen Fan remembered that the Vermilion Bird God-King had said that the sleeping being was the Vermilion Bird God-King's husband.

"..." The Vermilion Bird God-King rolled his eyes and said, "My abilities are limited; how could I possibly foresee the ending?"

"If I could see the ending, and I saw that the ending was that you would kill him, then I would do everything in my power to stop it from happening."

Shen Hongxiu blinked: "Why?"

The Vermilion Bird God-King shrugged and said, "Because he is my husband."

Shen Hongxiu: "..."

Everyone: "..."

"Don't feel embarrassed," the Vermilion Bird God King said with a smile. "In fact, there is no power in this world that can kill him. He is the master of heaven and earth, the supreme being, who has long since transcended life and death and reached the true realm of immortality."

"God is not omnipotent, but Shen Lang is omnipotent."

"My husband's name is Shen Lang."

(————————————Shen Lang is the protagonist of Lao Hai's old book "The Strongest War Emperor"——————————————)

Everyone: "(╯﹏╰)"

Shen Lang?

So even that supreme being had a name?

Ye Hongyan and Ye Hao, along with the others, silently watched the Vermilion Bird God King, their expressions somewhat grim.

"Why are you all staring at me like that?" said the Vermilion Bird God-King. "I've appeared here to help you find a solution..."

Ye Hongyan's expression turned cold as she asked, "Is it really possible to fuse nine laws?"

"It should be possible," said the Vermilion Bird God-King. "I've been planning this for so many years..."

Seeing the hostile looks in everyone's eyes, the Vermilion Bird God King immediately said, "As I just said, the key to comprehending the Ninth Law and fusing with the Nine Laws lies in these divine weapons and their systems."

Suddenly, Li Fengxing interjected, "You just raved about your husband to the skies, so here's the question: after Brother Fan merges with the nine laws, can he defeat your husband?"

Everyone: "(◎_◎;)"

That simpleton Li Fengxing always manages to get to the most crucial point!

"We can't beat them."

The Vermilion Bird God-King shook his head and said, "In the entire world, only he has fused ten laws. And in the entire world, there are only nine laws."

What kind of talk is that?

There are only nine laws in the entire world, so why can he fuse ten laws?

The Vermilion Bird God-King said, "The laws of time... do not exist in any universe; they are solely controlled by my husband."

"Even I am completely unable to touch this law."

"Moreover, he has long since merged with heaven and earth... Simply put, he is heaven and earth, he is countless universes."

"He exists in the past, present, and future; he exists everywhere."

Everyone: "(﹏)"

I don't want to talk about it anymore.

The more I talked, the more desperate I became.

Are you really here to help us find a solution?

Are you deliberately trying to undermine us?

If there's absolutely no chance of winning, then why bother with all this effort?

Even Chen Fan felt a sense of complete surrender at this moment.

But then the simple-minded Li Fengxing spoke up again: "I've thought of a solution..."

Everyone turned and silently looked at him.

You can't believe everything Li Fengxing says, but he often says surprising things that enlighten people.

Then Li Fengxing said, "One of us can activate our ethereal soul to enter the abyss and directly awaken that being."

Everyone: "凸(艹皿艹)"

Everyone was really looking forward to him just now.

What kind of solution is this?

If anyone here can use their ethereal soul to enter the Void Abyss, it must be Chen Fan, since his Void Divine Body has already reached the peak of the tenth level.

The Vermilion Bird God-King said, "That's what I think too, which is why I'm here now."

Everyone's expression tightened.

The Vermilion Bird God King continued, "For countless years, I have been waiting, waiting for Chen Fan to merge with the Nine Laws."

"It is because of the fusion of the nine laws that there is hope of entering the Void Abyss."

"Before the Nine Laws are integrated, any method to awaken my husband could cause the void tides to directly form a void tsunami..."

Shen Daodao interrupted her, asking, "What would happen if a void tsunami formed?"

The Vermilion Bird God-King said, "Then all the countless universes and countless beings in this dream, whether gods or demons, including the Heavenly Dao of each universe, will turn to ashes in an instant and cease to exist."

Everyone: "..."

"Ahem!" Li Fengxing coughed and said, "Once Chen Fan has fused with the nine laws, he can safely awaken your man... ahem, that lord?"

Everyone: "..."

"→﹏→" Vermilion Bird God King: "I can only say there is a sliver of hope."

Ye Hongyan's expression turned cold: "Whose glimmer of hope? The hope of this world, or Chen Fan's?"

"Chen Fan... might die," said the Vermilion Bird God King. "The kind of death where he's reduced to ashes."

Everyone: "..."

The Vermilion Bird God-King continued, "Perhaps, at that time, all your memories of him will disappear..."

"Damn it!" Shen Hongxiu roared, "Then we're not going! Let's all die together!"

"Listen to me," the Vermilion Bird God King said calmly, without getting angry. "If Chen Fan can comprehend the ninth law and eventually successfully fuse the nine laws, then there will still be a glimmer of hope for these countless universes."

"Chen Fan, are you scared?"

Chen Fan remained calm, only tightening his grip on the Heaven-Slaying Demon Blade slightly as he said, "What is there to fear!"

"Good, hahahaha, very good!" The Vermilion Bird God-King laughed loudly and said, "I knew I hadn't misjudged you..."

"Only three hundred years left..."

"I could have waited longer, but now, there are only three hundred years left."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the Vermilion Bird God King vanished without a trace before Chen Fan and the others could ask him anything.

Then, her voice echoed in the void again: "Chen Fan, you must integrate the nine laws within three hundred years."

"I have fused the nine laws into these divine artifacts. First, integrate all these divine artifacts into the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade, comprehend the ninth law, and then fuse them through the system."

"Once you have merged with the Nine Laws, I will know immediately and come to guide you to the Void Abyss."

"The future of this world rests on your shoulders."

……

silence.

A silence that drives you crazy.

Good news and bad news came together...

The good news is that we finally know the cause and effect and have found a solution.

The bad news is that countless universes and countless living beings, including them, could be destroyed in an instant.

Perhaps they can come back.

Perhaps, they will cease to exist.

"Let's go out first."

Chen Fan flicked his sleeve and led everyone out.

Outside, gods and demons rejoiced, and the whole world celebrated.

"Give me some time..."

Chen Fan nodded slightly and gently beckoned with his finger.

Five-colored divine stone, towering divine pillar, chaotic silk, sacrificial stele...

The divine artifacts in everyone's hands immediately flew to Chen Fan's side.

With a flick of his sleeve and a sway of his figure, Chen Fan had already stepped into the ancestral land of the Dutian Night Clan, carrying all the divine artifacts with him.

The moment he entered the ancestral land of the Dutian Night Clan, a thought stirred within him…

In an instant, the towering divine pillars of the ancestral land of the Dutianye Clan immediately flew up, eventually converging and merging together.

A dazzling divine light emanated from the towering pillar...

Including the Heavenly Pillar, one divine artifact after another surrounded Chen Fan, slowly rotating.

All of these artifacts are now in their complete form.

Each of these divine artifacts emitted extremely terrifying energy fluctuations.

Auras of laws swirled around the artifact, giving it a mysterious and profound feel.

It seems that he and Chu Xuan have never truly unleashed the power of these divine weapons.

wrong……

Perhaps they had unleashed this power many tens of thousands of years ago, which is why they were able to slay the Void Ruler.

But after his reincarnation, he truly did not feel the real power of these artifacts.

Shen Daodao's twelve wings of the God King have always been used for escaping;

The power that everyone relies on in Bai Rugo's Taixu Sacred Mirror is actually the corpse of Chen Fan's previous life inside.

Fang Qingqing's Heavenly Demon Staff was unremarkable;

Shen Hongxiu's Chaos Ribbon is rather strange; it can easily seal all kinds of divine weapons and artifacts.

Ye Hongyan's Five-Colored Divine Stone is much more powerful, capable of sealing the void, leaving even the Void Ruler helpless;

Only the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade revealed a power surpassing that of the Void Ruler.

However, these divine weapons did not demonstrate their true power.

Apart from the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade and the Five-Colored Divine Stone, the other divine weapons were not even enough to contend with the Void Ruler.

but now……

It was as if the seals on these magical artifacts had been broken.

The stronger Chen Fan became, the more he could feel the earth-shattering power within him.

If the power of each of these divine artifacts were fully unleashed, it would be enough to crush the Void Ruler!

Unbelievable...

The Vermilion Bird God-King secretly pushed for the creation of these divine weapons, not to deal with the Void Ruler, but to deal with her husband.

Even so, there is still no hope of winning.

This made Chen Fan feel like he wanted to vomit blood.

Whether as a mortal or after regaining his memories of his previous life, Chen Fan had never felt so powerless.

"call!"

Chen Fan exhaled a breath of stale air, forcing himself to stop thinking about these things.

The Vermilion Bird God-King said there are still three hundred years...

Three hundred years is a very long time for mortals.

But it made Chen Fan feel nervous.

With a thought, Chen Fan took out the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade.

Although he could always command these other divine weapons, none of them were as connected to his mind as the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade.

Chen Fan silently sensed the fluctuations of the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade.

He had just retrieved the complete Heaven-Slaying Demon Blade.

The terrifying pressure released by the complete Heaven-Severing Demon Blade was truly vast, unfathomable, and indescribable.

But that fluctuation did not threaten Chen Fan. On the contrary, it made Chen Fan feel as if the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade was releasing a kind of joy after a long separation.

The Vermilion Bird God-King said that she had placed the nine laws separately within these divine weapons.

The most urgent task is to understand the Ninth Law.

Finally, the nine laws were completely integrated!

With a thought, Chen Fan separated strands of his divine consciousness and sent them into the Heaven-Severing Demon Blade and the Five-Colored Divine Stone, among other divine weapons.

------------------

I'm so sorry.

Updates have only resumed now; I'll try to upload the finale in the next few days.

This book, which was originally about taming beasts, didn't perform well in the later stages because it turned into a fantasy novel. Also, I had some family matters to attend to, so I put it off for so long. I sincerely apologize to everyone here!

I'm truly sorry to all my long-time readers who have supported me.

I'll finish writing the finale in the next few days, though I'll be doing it intermittently.
