Chapter 649 - 645: The Imperial Son’s True Identity

Chapter 649: Chapter 645: The Imperial Son’s True Identity

Although the Realm Lord had manifested a physical form, his body was merely a construct of will. The moment the lower half of his body fell into the black hole, it began to transform.

Terrifying as the Black Hole Space was, the Realm Lord had created it, making it akin to its own source.

As that smaller half of his body returned to its source, it began to change and decompose.

Ultimately, it transformed into the most primal Power of Origin.

Lin Hao used his Life Secret Skill to witness the entire transformation.

It contained a certain kind of rule.

The rule was so profound and mysterious that Lin Hao couldn’t grasp it. It could be said to be something even more abstruse than the Dao Sound.

However, Lin Hao firmly committed this rule of transformation to memory.

Although the rule was too profound for Lin Hao to understand, after witnessing the transformation back to a primal state, his perception of the black hole changed.

Just a moment ago, the Realm Lord had also manifested a black hole, but Lin Hao had gained nothing from trying to peer into it.

But this time was different.

In Lin Hao’s eyes, the Black Hole Space was no longer a black hole, but countless Divine Chains of order.

Ancient profundities flowed along those Divine Chains, and Lin Hao sensed a vast power.

This contained the power of laws!

This power of laws was connected to a Great Emperor!

However, the Realm Lord was formed from will, so the power of its laws was too chaotic.

Lin Hao had no time for other concerns. As the six great worlds swirled in his eyes, he focused on committing everything to memory first.

Meanwhile, the Realm Lord launched an attack.

After absorbing the lower half of the Realm Lord’s body, the Black Hole Space became even more terrifying. In Lin Hao’s eyes, a power of laws shot out from the space constructed of countless Divine Chains of order.

That power was supremely strong, yet formless and traceless.

If Lin Hao hadn’t been using his Life Secret Skill, he would never have even detected it.

In the sky, the Blood Sun was sliced directly down the middle.

At the same time, the formless, traceless power of laws pierced straight through the mysterious Imperial Scion’s body.

CLANG! CLANG!

A metallic clang echoed through the sky, the sound of the power of laws piercing the mysterious Imperial Scion’s body.

The Imperial Scion’s physical body was as if it were forged from divine iron!

"The Realm Lord is using the power of laws!" The figures who were like living fossils, those who had touched the very fringes of the power of laws, finally sensed that power now.

That power had been present for some time, and it was boundless.

The power of laws was immeasurably strong, with the cleaved Blood Sun as clear proof.

Now, the power of laws had pierced the Imperial Scion—a sign that it was about to obliterate him.

"So this is the Realm Lord’s true power. Is the Imperial Scion going to be slain too?"

However, the mysterious Imperial Scion was terrifying beyond compare. With a great roar, a monstrous bloody aura surged from the cloven Blood Sun, filling the entire sky.

Within this bloody aura was an incredibly strange presence.

It was as if an Emperor’s might was spreading, yet it was laced with hints of a sinister energy.

PFFT! PFFT!

Suddenly, almost every Martial Artist spat out blood.

Their blood was drawn from them and absorbed directly into the two halves of the Blood Sun.

All the Martial Artists were horrified.

Within the boundless bloody aura, they saw a sea of blood.

In that sea of blood were skeletons piled as high as mountains.

At that moment, Lin Hao’s body trembled. Although he didn’t spit blood, he was even more shocked than the others.

That strange presence felt somewhat familiar to him.

After a flash of insight, Lin Hao’s eyes twitched.

’I remember now!’

’That mysterious man isn’t an Imperial Scion at all—he’s clearly the Ten Thousand Blood Demon Emperor, reviving!’

Back at the Heaven-Stepping Sect, Lin Hao had once destroyed a wisp of the Ten Thousand Blood Demon Emperor’s remnant soul. The memory of that aura was deeply ingrained in him.

Just now, the mysterious man hadn’t used the Ten Thousand Blood Demon Emperor’s power, so Lin Hao hadn’t realized. But now, with the appearance of this boundless bloody aura, he finally detected that familiar presence.

’No, that’s not right! He’s both an Imperial Scion and the Ten Thousand Blood Demon Emperor! It would be more accurate to say the mysterious man is a fusion of the two.’

Having uncovered this secret, Lin Hao’s eyes shone, and he couldn’t help but sigh.

’Clearly, this mysterious man was originally an Imperial Scion, but his body was possessed by a remnant soul of the Ten Thousand Blood Demon Emperor.’

’And the Realm Lord had likely discovered this secret long ago.’

’The Realm Lord is the manifested will of the Divinity Realm, and the Divinity Realm itself was constructed by several Great Emperors over countless ages. Therefore, it must be familiar with the auras of Great Emperors.’

’This mysterious man must carry the aura of a certain Great Emperor, which is why the Realm Lord was so hesitant to act earlier and was repeatedly forced to retreat.’

’But as the fierce battle raged on, the Realm Lord must have seen through the truth. It would never let this mysterious Imperial Scion succeed.’

After understanding the mysterious man’s origins, Lin Hao sighed softly, his eyes immediately hardening with determination.

’The Ten Thousand Blood Demon Emperor has obviously not fully revived yet. I will never allow such a being to exist in the world.’ ℯ

’If he were to succeed, it would be a great catastrophe.’

Clearly, the Realm Lord also understood the gravity of the situation.

As the mysterious Imperial Scion deployed his evil power, the Realm Lord prepared to strike. "Any consideration I had is now gone! Today, I shall enact judgment in heaven’s stead and kill you!"

"Hahaha, too late!" the mysterious man—or to be precise, the Ten Thousand Blood Demon Emperor—laughed.

His remnant soul had occupied the Imperial Scion’s physical body and learned of the Blood Sun Forbidden Skill from his host’s Divine Sense.

’This Forbidden Skill is merely an incomplete fragment, yet it already has heaven-defying potential. Once I seize the great fortune of the Divinity Realm, I’ll surely uncover its other secrets.’

By now, the Blood Sun had not only absorbed the blood of countless bloodlines but also the Realm Lord’s blood, activating the wisp of power that shared the same Origin as the Imperial Scion.

BOOM!

As he spoke, the cloven Blood Sun merged into one again.

This time, a faint, almost imperceptible Emperor’s might began to spread.

The Emperor’s might was incomparably righteous, yet it contained a boundless evil energy.

Now, the Ten Thousand Blood Demon Emperor was cultivating both good and evil simultaneously, making him terrifying to the extreme.

The Blood Sun once again manifested blood-colored Divine Chains. This time, in addition to the harmonious cries of dragons and phoenixes, countless ancient dire beasts roared.

At the same time, a sinister wind blew, and countless vicious ghosts appeared.

Here, gods and demons intertwined!

"Heavens, is he an Imperial Scion or a devil? What in the world has he cultivated?!" The crowd felt a chill run down their spines.

The Blood Sun’s aura surged, circulating with the presences of ancient gods and demons.

Some of the Divine Chains clanged as they formed a world-encompassing cage, while others rippled through the sky to form a God-Binding Rope.

All of this was aimed at the Realm Lord, yet the shockwaves caused the sky to tremble, the void to collapse, and the Martial Artists to cough up mouthfuls of blood.

"Annihilate!"

In response, the Realm Lord uttered only a single word.

But as he spoke, a word materialized in the void and directly obliterated the Divine Chains.

It was that very word, "Annihilate." When the Realm Lord spoke it, he manifested a law that suppressed all things.

With the Divine Chains obliterated, the word continued unabated, crashing toward the Blood Sun.

"Open!"

But the Ten Thousand Blood Demon Emperor paid it no mind and simply roared at the sky.

Something terrifying happened. As he spoke that one word, the firmament trembled violently, the void twisted, and even the rules of heaven and earth were disrupted.

Clearly, the Ten Thousand Blood Demon Emperor was using his power to transcend this world.

The Realm Lord controlled this entire realm; to defeat him, one would need the power of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

The Ten Thousand Blood Demon Emperor was trying to sunder the heavens and unleash the power of the Spirit Transformation Realm!
