Chapter 2742: Kill Him With My Own Hands

When Old Bai and Old Hei had completely broken through to the Peak of the Divine Emperor Realm.

Inside a dim secret chamber of the He family.

He Kongsheng, the ancestor of the Hes, had not stepped out from here for days, constantly engraving lines throughout the Divine Origin Realm, known as Myriad Yuan Return to One.

Now this Myriad Yuan Return to One had reached its most critical juncture, absolutely no errors could be allowed, so he must keep vigil here without leaving for a moment.

He had naturally sensed the eleven traces of the Heavenly Dao in the sky outside just now, and his face was filled with anger and coldness. As the one who had instigated Old Bai and Old Hei back then, he naturally knew them very well; he could almost certainly confirm this disturbance was caused by Old Bai and Old Hei.

“Wu Fengxian, Jiang Yuntian, your talents are indeed better than mine, but alas! What use is it for you to break through to the Peak of the Divine Emperor Realm now? I am about to step into Eternal Life, and for the rest of your lives, you won’t surpass me. I will become the master of this world in the future,” He Kongsheng muttered in a low voice.

Meanwhile, the entire He family had fallen into a state of tense anticipation.

Family Head He Renbai and a group of elders from the He family had all gone to the back mountain.

Since Lin Wentian and others left the Chaos Demon Emperor’s tomb entrance, He Renbai, having no other option, could only temporarily return to the He family. Today was the day the He family’s Young Master He Yuantian was coming out from the Realm of Death.

This Realm of Death was a place where entering meant a high chance of dying, possibly even certain death.

Fortunately, over these days, He Yuantian’s Lifebound Token hadn’t shattered, proving that He Yuantian was still alive.

Anyone who could walk out from the Realm of Death would see their strength greatly enhanced; it’s just unclear to what extent He Yuantian’s cultivation would improve.

He Renbai and the others waited anxiously.

The He family’s Realm of Death was located within the back mountain, in a secret spatial realm that required the combined effort of most strong members of the He family to open.

It was said that this secret realm originated from the Chaos Era and had been passed down in the He family ever since.

Inside the Realm of Death at this time.

The entire world was shrouded in a gray haze, the air filled with endless Evil Qi, even the plants here were tainted by Evil Qi, making them appear vicious.

The Evil Qi here wasn’t ordinary; should it infiltrate a cultivator’s body, it could lead to unpredictable consequences.

This secret realm was filled with dense forests and high mountains, hiding ferocious beasts filled with Evil Qi.

These beasts had survived here for years, clearly having adapted to the Evil Qi, and by absorbing it, these beasts would become even more ferocious and their combat power even stronger.

Moreover, this secret realm was fraught with various unknown dangers, but undoubtedly also opportunities exist within it.

The He family, after so many years of development, hadn’t completely explored the Realm of Death.

After all, entering the Realm of Death came with certain restrictions, and figures like He Kongsheng could no longer re-enter it.

Somewhere within a damp cave in the Realm of Death.

He Renbai’s body was covered with wounds, and in front of him was a translucent skull, with hesitation in his eyes.

It was clearly inscribed on the stone wall beside him.

This skull belonged to a powerful being from the Chaos Era, and they condensed a substantial amount of power within it before dying. If He Renbai absorbed the power within the skull, his cultivation would certainly step into the Divine Emperor Realm, possibly even into the late stage of the Divine Emperor Realm.

However, though one’s cultivation could be greatly enhanced through external means, it came with major side effects; once the energy was absorbed, the absorber’s lifespan would be reduced to just ten years.

Of course, that wasn’t the most important part since the energy within this skull was extremely yin; if a man absorbed it, it would disrupt the masculinity, to put it plainly, he would become neither male nor female; even his below would contract into nothing.

Lifespan reduced to just ten years!

And turning into a person who is neither male nor female.

As the He family’s Young Master, He Yuantian could not accept it at the moment, although he’s already gained some opportunities here.

His current cultivation was at the Half-step Divine Emperor, yet he knew that to personally kill Ye Chenfeng, this power was far from enough.

After hesitating for a moment.

He Yuantian slowly reached his hand towards the translucent skull, even if it meant losing everything, he must personally kill Ye Chenfeng, who has become the heart-devil he cannot shake off.

His palm pressed against the translucent skull, and a surge of extreme yin energy instantly rushed into his body.

A violent wind swept through the cave.

He Yuantian fell into extreme agony.

The cave was enveloped in a bizarre and eerie fluctuation, and He Yuantian had already passed out, yet his hand seemed glued to that skull.

As time ticked away.

Several hours later.

The cave returned to calm.

He Yuantian gradually regained consciousness, frowning slightly as he urgently urged the flow of Spiritual Qi River in his meridians.

Immediately, an imposing aura of the late stage of the Divine Emperor Realm exploded from his body.

However, his complexion was unusually pale, like freshly painted walls.

After completely absorbing the energy from the translucent skull, his lifespan was reduced to a mere ten years.

His hand unconsciously moved to his lower body; feeling the emptiness there, his expression turned uglier. Did the Young Master of the Hes, indeed become neither male nor female?

“Ye Chenfeng, I, He Yuantian, vow to tear you to pieces.”

He Yuantian practically roared, yet his voice had become strangely shrill, like that of a eunuch, sounding rather comical.

Hearing his voice change so, He Yuantian clenched his fists tightly, the aura of the late stage of the Divine Emperor Realm roiling within him.

He had paid a great price for this cultivation.

He Yuantian stopped talking to himself, not wanting to hear that voice anymore. The time he could spend in the Realm of Death was running out, he would soon be teleported out.

No one must learn about his transformation into neither male nor female or that he only had ten years left to live. The first thing he must do after leaving the Realm of Death is to kill Ye Chenfeng with his own hands.
