“Whoo!”

A golden barrier in the sky crushed all the arrays and flowers.

Ying Zheng walked over to his two opponents slowly. He had put down his defense and said, “That's what you've inherited from Gui Guzi? That's almost an insult to him.”

Yu Wude grifted his teeth and stomped his feet. An Eight Diagram Tactics spread and covered hundreds of miles. He activated the prana power and murmured, “Taiji generates two complementary forces. Two complementary forces generate four aggregates. Four aggregates generate eight trigrams.

“The two elementary forces are yin and yang. The Eight Diagrams stand for the will of the world, which is, Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Gen, Dui, Kan, and Li.”

He was immediately wrapped up by the Innate Prana Power. As he struck out forward, heaven and earth shook. People could feel the fury of storms, thunder, fire, mountains, water, and marshes.

The Eight Diagrams were like eight invisible pockets that had the whole universe running in it. It was a tiny universe in which many planet and creatures evolved. All these worlds could be changed by the Eight Diagrams.

Qian stood for heaven; Kun, earth; Zhen, thunder; Xun, wind; Gen, mountains; Dui, marshes; Kan, water; and Li, fire.

These Taoist laws were targeting Ying Zheng, and Yu Wude was just starting. When he set up the Eight Diagrams, he had connected it with the ancient Third Divine Array carved by Shangguan Yiyi.

“Boom! Boom…”

The adjacent area had been filled with all kinds of Tao Laws. The Third Divine Array slowly landed on earth. Under the joint activation of the two of them, the array could be half as powerful as it used to be.

“That's more like it.” Ying Zheng chuckled.

Ying Zheng was trapped in the Taoist thunder, but he didn't look panicked at all. He didn't even try to dodge. He then lifted his arm and destroyed the Eight Diagrams with his unmatched Dragon Qi.

Then he flew into heaven and punched the Third Divine Array with his fist.

“That's…”

Other people were so surprised that they could barely speak. The Third Divine Array was a perfect combination of trapping and killing. It was said that it could kill lots of Greater Powers within seconds.

The one that Ying Zheng faced today was only half as powerful as the real one, but nobody dared to look down on it. That was why everybody was so shocked when they saw Ying Zheng punching the array with his fist.

“Boom!”

Finally, the array was broken by his punch and shattered into pieces. Ying Zheng was covered with Dragon Qi and spiritual strength. Both his hands were giving out formidable pressure as he rushed at Yu Wude.

“Dang!”

Yu Wude gritted his teeth and tried to block Ying Zheng with the Formation Breaking Sword, but soon his hands were knocked numb by Ying Zheng's fist. Ying Zheng's fist was less than one inch from his face. He had no choice but to spit the tiny array out of his mouth.

The array slowed Ying Zheng down for a bit, which gave Yu Wude the opportunity to get away. However, Ying Zheng could move so fast that he caught up with Yu Wude in one second. As he waved his fist, he suddenly felt his heart skip a beat.

He leaned sideways and avoided a flower petal. Then he activated his spiritual strength to protect himself, which prevented himself from being attacked by thousands of flower petals.

“Petal Cutting Array!”

Shangguan Yiyi cried out. As she activated the array she had set up earlier, numerous petals danced in the wind. Deep in those flower petals, there were nine novel flowers.

All of those flowers carried powerful Taoist laws and their petals cut like legendary sharp blades. Those petals whirled and shot at Ying Zheng.

“Clang! Clang!”

Ying Zheng remained as calm as usual. His powerful fists shattered all the petals into smaller pieces. Then he gave out the most powerful Imperatorial Power, pounding the array into non-existence. His body turned into a giant seal, darting to where Yu Wude was.

“Swoosh, swoosh!”

Yu Wude summoned 81 flags in the air. He then used his and Shangguan Yiyi's essential blood to build the array. He put all these flags in different positions in the array.

“Buzz!”

Almost at the same time, he summoned a red spiritual stone that shined with a creepy bloody light. It seemed that some powerful blood was flowing in it.

The stone was in a weird heart shape. People could hear that it was pumping when they took a close look at it.

Yu Wude used this stone as the spirit of the array. He chanted the spell fast when Shangguan Yiyi stalled Ying Zheng with the Thousand Flower Dance.

“With my mind moving, all creatures surrender. To control the world, no one dares to resist! Once I get furious, I kill all creatures and souls! Second Killing Array – Soul Killing of All Creatures!”

That holy and resounding chant echoed in the sky. As he finished chanting, Shangguan Yiyi was knocked back. The two of them stood together again, trying their hardest to activate the array.

Tens of millions of array lines shone scarlet red. The roar of all kinds of violent creatures came out of the array.

“Growl!”

The huge blood figure jumped out and growled to heaven. All creatures had been silenced. They then submitted themselves to the figure who was no one else but the seventh Human Emperor of the Palace of the Human Emperors, also known as the Emperor of Dragon Blood!

“The stories are true! There was a Human Emperor living in the second killing array!” Ying Zheng smiled.

“Hmph!”

Emperor of Dragon Blood glared at the front and punched out.

“Bring it on!”

Ying Zheng had no fear of this opponent because he was the greatest emperor of all time. Nobody could be his match except for Xiang Yu.

But Xiang Yu died too young from heaven's punishment, even before Ying Zheng could cross paths with him.

That was why Ying Zheng looked so excited. He had run into a worthy opponent, another Human Emperor! That was something that all powerhouses had in common. They were always standing at the peak of the world, with no one else around.

The Emperor of Dragon Blood was also at the peak. He never feared any opponent. The two were both the prodigies of their own times. They were proud of themselves and would never give in to anyone.

The two's fists collided hundreds of times but the process took less than a minute. Every time they punched, the world shook and its Taoism trembled.

Their moves were simple, but every move of theirs contained the true meaning of Taoism and endless changes. Few people could see through this.

Both of the two were on fire. They were thrilled because they didn't feel as lonely as before. They wanted to beat each other.

“Nine Dragons Tearing the Sky!”

“Earth Sweeping!”

The Emperor of Dragon Blood transformed all the creatures in the array into a huge saber, the Dragon Slayer. With his own Imperatorial Power and supreme Taoist Law, he waved the saber nine times. Each time he waved it, a scarlet dragon came out of it.

Nine waves later, he slashed out heavily. The nine dragons orbiting him shot away and snarled.

Ying Zheng summoned his own sword and waved it horizontally. A mysterious domineering and Imperatorial Power swept the world instantly.

“Boom!”

The collision of the two supreme powers nearly blew a hole in heaven. Other people had to resist the airwave very hard or they would be knocked away hundreds of meters.

“What a pity that you and I are both primordial spirits and we both have an important mission to complete, or I'd fight you till I'm exhausted.” Ying Zheng laughed out aloud.

“We're both Hua Xia people and we keep our residue till today for the sake of our country and our people. You're right in that we don't have much time for this.” The Emperor of Dragon Blood shook his head and sighed.

“Maybe you and I will meet again in the netherworld. We shall fight again before the Forgetting River. What do you think?” Ying Zheng joked.

“That's a good idea! If we meet each other again in the future in the netherworld, we'll definitely fight and see who's more powerful.” The Emperor of Dragon Blood smiled from ear to ear.

Then his body faded and vanished. The array he was in dissipated with the wind as well.

Other people felt happy as well as lamented for the two. The conversation between the two emperors was solemn and stirring. That loneliness had existed for thousands of years.

They once had to compete with all other talents. After all they had been through, they finally made it. However, when they looked back, they felt so lonely.

Nobody could resist their attacks anymore. They would be lonely for the rest of their lives. That was the tragedy of all emperors.

They had dedicated their lives to the Human Race and Hua Xia. They were born to fight, and they would be willing to die fighting for their people.

However, after they were dead, they cared so much about this world that they didn't want to leave. They would rather live with thousands of years of loneliness so that they could save Hua Xia when it was in trouble.

They chose to save the Human Race and to protect Hua Xia without hesitation. That was their own way to protect the land they grew up on. They wanted to protect those people who worshipped them.

That was why they give up the chance to end their loneliness this time. They had to do it for the sake of the Human Race. Their only hope was that they could meet in the netherworld and challenge each other again.

“That's sad, isn't it?” Leng Yueyan shook her head and sighed.

She had this picture in her mind in which the two emperors were walking side by side in the netherworld. The mandragora flowers looked so thriving.

In front of the Naihe Bridge, the two looked at each other in the eyes and laughed. They fought with each other for one last time and ended their life-long regret. Then they walked to Granny Meng and drank the forgetting soup.

The first one who stepped on the bridge soon forgot who the one behind him was. The one left behind was drinking the soup with tears in his hazy eyes.

“It not as sad as you think. He who wears the crown bears the crown and the eternal loneliness,” Ying Zheng said calmly. Then he pointed his finger at Feng Tianming and Misawa Chihiro.

The two didn't say anything. They walked slowly toward Ying Zheng and saluted him sincerely. Then they summoned their weapons.
