Chapter 252 The Destined Ending

Sun and Moon Sect.

On the ground, with the statue of Li Yu in front of the sect gate as the center, there were countless figures sitting cross-legged densely packed together.

Among them, most are below the Nascent Soul stage.

They most hope that the leader can defeat Haotian. Only the sacrifice of strong people above the Nascent Soul stage can contribute to the fight against Haotian. They don't have to make sacrifices and can enjoy the final results.

If the leader loses, the worst that can happen is that we all die together.

If the leader wins, they can survive.

But for cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage, no matter whether they win or lose in this battle against heaven, they will only have one ending, which is destruction. Therefore, most people are struggling in their hearts.

On top of Yuxuan Peak.

Dan Chenzi sighed and said with emotion: "I have practiced for more than three thousand years, but I didn't expect that everything would be in vain. Rather than becoming an ant under the palm of Haotian, it is better to leave a glimmer of hope for future generations..."

Chen Ming punched Li Yu on the shoulder and said, "It's up to you."

As soon as they finished speaking, their bodies gradually faded away, and their two souls transformed into the purest power and flew into Li Yu's body.

Venerable Lingzhi clasped his hands together and said loudly: "If I don't go to hell, who will?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a blazing flame ignited on his body. In a moment, only a golden relic remained floating in the void.

Wu Tong, the founder of Emei, the old ancestor Ji Yin, and the remaining few people also sighed, and their bodies disappeared into the void, and bits of light flew into Li Yu's body.

Li Yu stood there, speechless for a long time.

Although tens of thousands of years have passed, some things remain unchanged.

There is no doubt that even if the Xuantian Realm fails this time like the Piaomiao Immortal Sect , there will definitely be people who will follow the same path as them in some era in the future.

Rays of light fell from the sky and landed on Yuxuan Peak.

Wang Daoxuan and the head of Emei came hand in hand, and twenty powerful gods from Emei and Kunlun, including Master Xuanzhen, followed behind them.

Li Yu clasped his fists and bowed, saying, "Master..."

Wang Daoxuan personally helped him up and said with a smile: "It is a great honor in my life to accept you as my disciple."

He patted Li Yu on the shoulder and said, "Our Xuantian Realm depends on you..."

After a while, there was no one around Li Yu.

But he is not alone.

More and more figures crossed the sky, landed on Yuxuan Peak, and then walked towards him without hesitation.

Among these people, there are both gods and Nascent Souls.

Li Yu saw many familiar faces among them. They came from both the righteous and evil paths, from the Central Dynasty, from the demon clan, and even from the Tiandao Sect.

They came here willing to die.

Several months passed in a flash.

In the entire Xuantian Alliance, there is no one who has broken through the void, nor has there been any soul transformation. There are only a handful of Nascent Souls. The statue of Li Yu of the Sun and Moon Sect is already crowded with people, and there is no place to stay even within a hundred miles.

In addition to the immortal cultivators, there are also countless ordinary people who know the news.

Li Yu did not appear in the Sun and Moon Sect.

His divine sense could cover a distance of thousands of miles. Even if he was at Yuxuan Peak, he could still absorb the divine power from the Sun and Moon Sect's statue.

In the past few months, he has been with the girls and has not stepped out of Yuxuan Peak. In the battle with Haotian, he has no confidence that this may be the last time he spends with them.

In Yuxuanfeng's small kitchen, Li Yu put the processed silverfish into the casserole, and two figures moved in from outside shyly.

Li Yu didn't look back and said, "Wait a little longer. You can eat after the silverfish soup is ready."

Ling'er came up, took Li Yu's arm, and said with a smile: "Brother, Sister Yan'er has something to tell you."

Today's Ling'er is no longer the ignorant girl who could not even speak clearly. She is clever and quirky, and is the darling of everyone at Yuxuan Peak. Because of her personality, she and Zhou Yan have become good friends for a long time.

Li Yu turned around, looked at Zhou Yan and asked, "What?"

"I, I..." Zhou Yan blushed, grabbed the clothes on her sides with both hands, and stammered.

Ling'er couldn't bear to watch it anymore and said, "Oh, let me tell you. Sister Yan'er likes you. She said that if you don't tell her now, you will never have the chance to tell her again..."

"Oh, Ling'er!"

Zhou Yan's face turned even redder. She just glanced at Li Yu secretly and ran out quickly.

Li Yu shook his head and smiled. No one knew when Haotian would arrive. For the immortal cultivators in Xuantian Realm, every day could be the last day. If many things were not said now, there would be no chance to say them. Therefore, no matter they were immortal cultivators or mortals, they all wanted to leave no regrets before Haotian arrived.

Li Yu rubbed Ling'er's face and asked, "Haotian is coming soon, Ling'er, aren't you afraid?"

Ling'er hugged Li Yu's arm and said, "Ling'er is not afraid. With my brother here, Ling'er is not afraid of anything!"

Nowadays, both the world of immortal cultivation and the secular world are shrouded in depression and despair, and there are very few people as heartless as her.

After dinner, Li Yu came to the viewing pavilion at the top of the mountain, where Zhou Yan was sitting alone.

She turned around and saw Li Yu. She was a little panicked and shy. She lowered her head and said softly, "Master, I..."

Li Yu touched her face and whispered, "I know."

If it were an ordinary time, facing her confession, Li Yu might not know how to deal with it, but now, everything does not need to be so complicated.

Zhou Yan held his hand, and a charming smile appeared on her pretty face.

…

Under extreme depression, time flies and another month has passed.

No one knows how many people have gathered outside the Sun and Moon Sect. All the top powerhouses in the entire Xuantian Realm have been consumed in the past few months. At this point, it is even difficult to find any trace of the Nascent Soul.

In order to stabilize people's hearts, Li Yu has moved to the Sun and Moon Sect.

A large amount of faith power is generated here every day. Li Yu's cultivation improves by leaps and bounds, and the Qiankun Furnace was completely repaired two months ago.

Countless figures sit cross-legged under the huge statue, day after day.

At a certain moment, everyone suddenly felt something and looked up at the sky at the same time.

At some point, the originally calm sky suddenly changed.

A phantom of a hand that was as far as the eye could see began to slowly condense, and with it came an extreme pressure that forced everyone to lower their heads.

At this moment, there was only one thought left in their minds.

Haotian...is here!

In the Sun and Moon Sect, Li Yu was drawing eyebrows for the witch.

Suddenly, all the girls waiting on the side raised their heads at the same time, looked towards the sky, with expressions of surprise on their faces.

Li Yu didn't look up. One hand was still drawing her eyebrows carefully, and the other hand was casually waving towards the sky.

A shadow of a hand, thousands of feet long, rose into the air.

In the void, the giant palm dissipated before it could solidify.

In the Sun and Moon Sect, Li Yu drew the last stroke with the eyebrow pencil in his hand.

Then he stood up and looked up at the sky.

The illusory giant hand has disappeared, replaced by a huge human face.

The man's face was still illusory, and his empty eyes looked down at everything without any emotion, and his gaze finally locked on Li Yu.

Li Yu took one last look at the women, then soared into the sky and flew towards the huge face.

The seal of the Qiankun Furnace was lifted, and the aura in his body was fully released for the first time.

A powerful aura swept up, and his body turned into a bright light, and finally collided with the huge face.

After a moment, the light disappeared and the huge human face slowly dissipated.

Countless people in Xuantian Realm looked up at the sky, waiting quietly.

…

Li Yu's body appeared in the boundless void.

There is a strange power in this space that is constantly corroding his body and soul.

Fortunately, his body is different from that of ordinary cultivators. He can reach the seventh level with his physical body alone and will not be corroded so quickly. His soul is also extremely powerful. Not only will it not be corroded, but when the Qiankun Furnace is running at full power, he can even devour the things that corrode him.

After an unknown amount of time, some strange images appeared in Li Yu's mind.

A vast continent was floating alone in the void. This continent was bare and had no life. After floating in the dark void for countless years, a consciousness suddenly emerged.

For the first time, this world gave birth to its own consciousness.

At the same time, the heaven and earth here also began to give birth to the first life. At first, there were only some of the simplest life, and later algae, plants, animals... began to evolve until humans appeared.

During this process, this original continent broke into countless pieces, some large and some small, and every small world evolved living creatures.

Some of the creatures discovered the secret of cultivation and began to use the origin of the world to make themselves stronger. However, as these creatures increased in number and more origin was extracted, this world gradually became withered.

After losing its origin, the consciousness of this world gradually became weak and fell into a deep sleep.

However, before falling asleep, it destroyed all living things in the world and allowed the origin to return.

The returned origin began to give birth to life again. Those lives learned to utilize the origin, and more and more origin was extracted. The world withered again, and the world consciousness awakened, destroying all living things again, and then fell into sleep again.

The consciousness of this world is Haotian.

Repeated gestation and destruction are the changes of eras.

Until a certain era, those lives that knew how to use the origin of heaven and earth discovered the existence of Haotian. For the sake of freedom, they challenged the consciousness of this world for the first time...

In that era, they used objects from outer space to create the Qiankun Furnace that could conceal their cultivation level, and before Haotian discovered it, they created a being above the gods.

Li Yu saw a consciousness devouring Haotian's consciousness. He saw that after the Qiankun furnace was broken, that existence used its last mana to shatter the space and sent it to another world. He also saw the blue planet that flashed by...

That consciousness belonged to the leader of Piaomiao Immortal Sect, Xiaoyaozi.

He is the first and only person to challenge Haotian in countless epochs.

But he failed.

He was also doomed to fail.

All the living beings in this world were born from the world consciousness. To them, the world consciousness was invincible. Even if they broke through the heavenly realm, they could not resist Haotian who gave birth to them...

But Xiaoyaozi is indeed the number one person throughout history.

He himself failed, but he left a backup plan.

Tens of thousands of years later, the nearly broken Qiankun Furnace brought an alien soul from another world, and cultivated him step by step to a realm above the gods.

This soul was not conceived by Haotian, so it cannot be easily swallowed.

After destroying a world, Haotian is no longer at his peak and no longer has the ability to devour the soul of a celestial being.

When Li Yu opened his eyes, the feeling of being corroded in his soul no longer existed.

Haotian's consciousness disappeared.

To be precise, he was swallowed unconsciously by Li Yu.

It turns out that this battle had already ended tens of thousands of years ago.

An ancient alchemy furnace flew out of Li Yu's body, turned into countless points of light in front of Li Yu, and then dissipated into the void.

Haotian is dead, and the Qiankun Furnace has fulfilled its destiny.

At this moment, Li Yu felt an unprecedented power.

He was floating in the void and sensed a spatial barrier.

Li Yu stretched out his hands, separated the space barrier, and saw a familiar blue planet.

He has always been so close to home.
