Chapter 525 May you always stand before the world, shrouded in that blazing flame, and move forward.

Finally.Ren's voice rang in Li An's ears."The power that helped Hades condense his Dao Fruit is called the Blood of the Azure Heavens.""But in reality, it's the crystallization of destiny.""The mortal realm is their pasture, and every person is their cattle and sheep. These cattle and sheep generate destiny, which they harvest and transform into tangible power.""You are the source of human destiny; you must be extremely careful."Li An nodded, "Thank you for the reminder.""Do you have any other requests? I'll agree to anything I can do."Ren said calmly, "Kill as many Azure Heaven Clan members as you can.""And also..."Ren paused, then said, "Li An, you are an extraordinary person.""In this era, most people in the heavens are already your defeated opponents, not even worthy of being your rivals.""What I remember most vividly is when I was in the Immortal Realm, descending to the eighteenth level of Hell.""You walked at the very front, chest out and head held high from beginning to end, no matter how vast the slaughter..." "Even anger couldn't stop you.""I couldn't keep up with you, watching you walk further and further away, engulfed in the flames of war.""In my eyes at that time, that flame of war was like the sun, seemingly never to be extinguished, always moving forward.""So if you ask me what else I want...""I hope you will always shine brightly, uncorrupted by darkness, unswayed by power, and never succumb to evil.""I hope that in the future I cannot see, you can always walk forward with your head held high, just as you did back then, even if it's a road to hell.""I watched that flame gradually recede into the distance.""I always felt that you were the backbone of our era.""Now that your spiritual realm has reached its peak, if you fight desperately and unleash the Three Realms Unity, even the Heavenly Cripple Technique cannot defeat you.""In my heart, you are already the best of our time.""Our best of our time!" The words fell.The vast white light gradually dissipated.Li An lowered his head, Ren's last words echoing in his mind.You are the backbone of this era.Anyone can submit to the Azure Sky Clan, but not you!Finally, he looked up at the shimmering light filling the sky to bid farewell, replying, "Of course." The battle between Ren and Li An began and ended abruptly.All the onlookers missed the most spectacular scenes, only seeing specks of white light illuminating the sky.Ren's life ended.But his end marked the beginning of the war between humanity and the Azure Sky Clan.Though he was a crippled being, he should have had a few more years to live.Everything was brought forward.Because the true enemy had appeared.Li An finally understood why humanity had poured all its resources into nurturing this generation's genius.There was no time left.He hadn't even graduated from the Temple of Cultivation, his studies were barely halfway complete, and he had already witnessed a prodigy die at the hands of the enemy.Who would be next? When?Li An desperately wanted to immediately join Shuangxue and the others on their battlefield, to fight against the Azure Sky Clan led by the Underworld King.But he couldn't leave yet; the seven-day agreement wasn't over, and he needed to claim the final reward.The coordinates of an ancient ruin!By now, Li An had a general idea of ​​the murky waters of the Alliance Realm.Keyword: Transcendence.Key Figures: The Eight Great Families, the Guild Leader, the Azure Sky Clan.Countless eras ago, the group of Deceitful Ones, including Shen Ji, created the true art of transcendence.But they couldn't complete this unprecedented and unparalleled feat.What they lacked were divine realm experts who had attained enlightenment from the ruins!In that era, where would so many peak ninth-realm cultivators come from?Thinking back to Lin Ruyu, the first to attain enlightenment, it's clear that the art of transcendence doesn't require ordinary ninth-realm cultivators; it needs the chosen ones of heaven.Only this era has so many chosen ones of heaven!These people are the key to completing the art of transcendence.Once this art of transcendence is completed, it will inevitably affect the Azure Sky Clan in the heavens.Therefore, the other side couldn't sit still and personally intervened to try and thwart the Chairman's plan.But the mortal realm is no longer a pasture. It has Shen Ji, the Chairman, and powerful figures like the Feather Emperor.Most importantly, it has the Tyrant!He is single-handedly suppressing the core members and army of the Azure Sky Clan in the heavens, so they can't spare many troops to deal with us.But this is evident from the free movement of the Underworld King and Zhou Shu.While the other side cannot easily eliminate us, they are not afraid of us either.The existence of the Azure Sky Clan is no longer a secret.The Underworld King's identity is also known to the high-ranking members of various clans.Yet he still has his clansmen, even his lackeys, yet they still dare to roam the mortal realm with impunity.They must have a powerful backing.Just now, Li An clearly saw a power similar to the Underworld King at the street corner, a formidable life rank, and also saw the sudden appearance of Shen Ji.All of this confirms Li An's conjecture.The other side has people, not just young people, but also adults. Their leaders and our leaders are both lurking in the shadows, waiting for the other to make a mistake.Zhou Shu told Ren that the Underworld King's second brother would emerge from seclusion and descend to the mortal realm in a month.All of this indicates that the Azure Sky Clan needs time.The Guild Master's plan to transcend also needs time.Both sides are racing against time.The key to everything lies in the ruins!Jing Tian of the Divine Realm occupied the first ruin, and later the Underworld King occupied another.They didn't allow any powerful individuals to enter the ruins to break through.This shows that the ruins are also useful to them.What the enemy doesn't do, that's what we must do.How to outrun time?Before a deadline that Li An doesn't yet know arrives, find all the ruins and allow enough powerful individuals to prove their divine realm within them—that's how we outrun time!But today, tomorrow, Li An can only sit here wasting time, waiting for the mission to end.Even if he genuinely wanted to help the Guild Master, there was nothing he could do.The Guild Master wouldn't suddenly make an exception for him, because of the rules.Although a formidable enemy is at hand, the rules cannot be changed!Li An understands the predicament. The pieces moving in this game aren't just the Cangtian Clan and the Allied Realms.The geniuses of all seven clans are here.Of course, this is only on the surface. In reality—the seven King Realms besides the Immortal Realm are all involved in this murky water!And!These seven King Realms aren't necessarily allies.Humanity united against the Cangtian Clan?There's no such fairy tale.Ren just solemnly told him that anyone can submit to the Cangtian Clan, but you can't.This statement reveals the Cangtian Clan's most powerful weapon!Not power, but—the right to grant power to others!A living example.Within the seven realms, there are many powerful beings trapped at their bottlenecks for years, nearing death from old age.Such people would find it difficult to resist the Cangtian Clan's persuasion.Li An's body trembled.The seven realms?No, the myriad realms! Including the human realm!If the Time Assassin could arrive beside him unnoticed, could he also turn some high-ranking figures in the human realm against him?This suddenly brought a face, a name, to his mind—Li Wuce!But not because he thought of him as someone who had been turned; quite the opposite…It seemed that after the Cangtian Clan's abilities were revealed, things might not be as he had originally imagined.Forget it, he didn't want to think about that guy anymore.In short,That power was the most terrifying aspect of the Cangtian Clan!To easily obtain power and immortality—in this vast universe, how many people could resist such temptation?
