Chapter 1049: Chapter 1049

This living, does not refer to the initial conversation with the Peacock King, when he was gravely injured and sleeping, sealed, planning to establish a great sect of the Demon Race, using endless power of faith to revive himself in the future.

But it is truly being alive, never having perished, never having slumbered.

Since the destruction of that distant Era of Gods, it began accumulating, sleeping, conserving energy, waiting for a suitable opportunity to completely transform, shedding the old body, the residual body, and living a new life.

What an astonishing fact it is, that an Ancient Demon God, counted among the overlords of the Era of Gods, has lived another life in such a gravely injured and dying state, achieving rebirth.

Such a situation is akin to breaking down and rebuilding, and the reborn Ancient Demon God is bound to be even more powerful, with its lifespan sure to increase significantly.

Moreover, from the residual soul’s memory of the transformation time, it is less than fifty thousand years ago, and considering the lifespan of ancient great powers, the Ancient Demon God could not have died of old age, but might have become even stronger, in a state above its peak.

All this is so hair-raising!

An undying Ancient Demon God who lives anew might be one of the hidden masterminds behind this Heavenly Earth Chess, watching everything in the human world from the shadows.

Ye Chen felt that this ancient conspiracy is more terrifying than imagined.

Moreover, he had a premonition that the Ancient Demon God would appear soon, and the power of faith collected over the years by establishing the great sect of the Demon Race would eventually be used by the Ancient Demon God.

This chess game has long surpassed all imaginable depths.

Ye Chen did not know if the battle here would be noticed by the Ancient Demon God, after all, these were the residual body and residual soul left by its transformation.

Suddenly, Ye Chen shuddered all over, feeling an intense sense of unease, as if there was a sword of Damocles hanging over his Primordial Spirit, ready to fall at any moment.

Without hesitation, Ye Chen made a decisive move to crush the space scroll left by the Peacock King, and in an instant, he was teleported, disappearing from his original location.

Almost simultaneously, the different plane heaven and earth, which had quieted down from the great battle, was suddenly enveloped by a Dao pressure much more vast and immense than the Demon God Will on the relics, shattering the heavens and earth.

The stars embedded in the Heavenly Dome by great means trembled and fell, crashing into the vast ground, creating huge craters, terrifyingly so.

And the central residual body of the Demon God relics shone brightly, its will and power surging, as if resonating.

"Who is so bold as to dare to obliterate the residual soul I left on the residual body!"

A voice filled with endless pressure resonated through this different plane heaven and earth, the ground cracked open into countless large abyss-like fissures, and stars were bursting open.

Too terrifying, even a Supreme would have their body shatter facing it.

Yet the different plane heaven and earth remained silent and empty, with only that mighty voice echoing.

Vast Daoist Law emerged, covering an extremely vast range, involving the entire different plane heaven and earth, truly a great power making a move, shaking heaven and earth, all light and shadow reversing quickly, trying to return to the beginning.

But at that moment, in the void where Ye Chen had left, a tower-shaped Dao mark suddenly appeared, explosively unleashing endless Dao power, accompanied by strands of chaos ancient energy, smoothing all traces, and directly dissipating the Dao divine power of Time Retrospect.

"It is this Ancient Tower, once the Taichu battle shocked the world, and now reappearing after more than half an epoch!"

A voice of shock came from the hidden great power level presence, sensing the pressure of the tower-shaped mark, with some trepidation, and snorting coldly: "It cannot be that great being, countless years have passed even supreme monarchs would decay, it cannot exist for long, only mythical emperors. Someone holds that great being’s Supreme Tower, entering here, destroying my residual soul, trying to intervene in the chess of the Ancient Emperor Continent?"

"Although with this Chaos Tower’s mark left, I cannot trace this person’s news, with the Emperor Mark erasing all traces, but wanting to intervene in the chess game, they will have to pay a heavy price."

"Unless that great being has been resurrected."

"Having waited for so many thousands of years, this is the great game painstakingly arranged, not allowing outsiders to destroy it. Whether success or failure hinges on this move, what does the loss of a residual soul matter, at worst I won’t condense the divine self."

"Haha, those ancient era’s old foes are about to emerge, when the chess game truly unfolds, it will be time to settle ancient grudges."

After saying this, a giant claw emerged from the Heavenly Dome, covering the sky and blocking the sun, filled with grim scale armor, enormous beyond compare, it grabbed the demon god residual body remains in the different plane heaven and earth, disappearing into the unknown void.

With that, it was completely gone. The rıghtful source is 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝※𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖※𝕟𝕖𝕥

The different plane heaven and earth returned to tranquility once again.

At the same moment, in the Treasure Pavilion where the Peacock King secluded himself, space suddenly twisted, a black hole appeared, and in an instant, a figure emerged from it, precisely Ye Chen who had left by crushing the space scroll.

Covered in blood, Ye Chen was a shocking sight, and the Peacock King, with a worried face, said: "Qian Yue, are you alright."

Ye Chen shook his head, indicating that these were blood marks left by the breakthrough in cultivation, making the Peacock King sigh in relief.

However, Ye Chen’s brows remained deeply furrowed, and his expression was very grave, prompting an involuntary inquiry.

"First block the void," Ye Chen said.

The Peacock King did not doubt, immediately waving his hand to seal the void, blocking all perception.

Even an ancient great power would find it hard to perceive anything here, escaping the Peacock King’s senses.

"What happened?" asked the Peacock King.

After a moment of silence, Ye Chen finally spoke word by word: "The Demon God is not dead, it still lives."

The Peacock King was slightly taken aback, he had only just mentioned this to Ye Chen, having long suspected it, but could it be this serious?

However, being as wise as he was, he quickly associated it with certain astonishing aspects, and exclaimed: "Could it be—"

"That’s right, the Ancient Demon God has shed its old body, living another life. The so-called remains in the different plane heaven and earth are just the residual body left after its transformation, and during the breakthrough, I also encountered the residual soul left by its transformation, and obtained this information." Ye Chen’s expression rare gravely solemn, and he transmitted all the crucial information to the Peacock King.

Knowing everything, the Peacock King’s expression suddenly changed, for this was a secret unknown to all past Heavenly Kings, who could imagine, the Ancient Demon God, supposed to have perished in the divine battle, did not die, and lived another life, even stronger.

"Peacock, arrange a truly safe place for me, I need to break through, if the shackle cannot be broken, then first condense the divine soul," Ye Chen said.
