Chapter 1623: A Human Paragon!

Wielding the Space Boundaries Crystal, Pei Qiqi vanished from the Realm of Middle Continent in the blink of an eye.

Nie Tian couldn’t even stop her.

By the time he flew to the secret teleportation portal, he saw Zhao Shanling and Ji Yuanquan staring at the portal with confused looks on their faces.

“Did you break Miss Pei’s bloodline seal, Nie Tian?” Ji Yuanquan asked curiously.

“No, I couldn’t,” Nie Tian said with a complicated expression.

Ji Yuanquan frowned. “Then why did she leave in a hurry? Where is she going?”

“She’s going to the Void World.”

Both Zhao Shanling and Ji Yuanquan gasped with astonishment. “The Void World?!”

“Nie Tian!” Dong Li, Yin Xingtian, and the others arrived one after another.

...

In the depths of the earth.

“I’m sorry, but I have some urgent business to take care of. I can’t stay here and explore the wonders here anymore.” Nie Tian’s soul shadow explained to You Qimiao and Han. “Even though you’re trapped here for now, this vast underground space is filled with all sorts of power. You won’t be in danger as long as you remain cautious.”

“What is it? Can it be more important than unraveling the mysteries of this giant corpse?” You Qimiao asked with a stern face.

“I’m afraid it is,” Nie Tian answered.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

The three fragmentary star marks split up and shot upwards.

The energy ward that had been keeping You Qimiao and Han Qing from leaving didn’t seem to have any effect on the fragmentary star marks.

Moments later, those on the surface saw the three fragmentary star marks fly out of the earth and return to Nie Tian’s chest, the soul essence within them fusing back into his sea of awareness.

After that, his star domain shrank sharply and gradually dissipated.

“Nie Tian!” Dong Li said, looking somewhat upset. “By retrieving your fragmentary star marks, are you going to...?”

“The giant corpse in the depths of the earth isn’t going anywhere anyways,” Nie Tian said. “Also, You Qimiao and Han Qing are still down there. You can take your time to look for ways to unravel its mysteries.”

After a moment of hesitation, he added with an apologetic tone, “I’m sorry, but I have to go to the Void World.”

Dong Li looked even more upset.

“Will you help me, Senior Zhao?” Nie Tian asked.

Being suddenly called upon, Zhao Shanling went blank for a second before saying quickly, “Sure.”

...

At the Seven Stars Realm Sea.

Spatial fluctuations emanated on one of the dead stars before Nie Tian manifested.

“Nie Tian!”

Ye Wenhan, Chu Rui, and many other experts from the four great sects that were gathered there were excited by the sight of him.

Jing Feiyang from the Divine Seal Sect reported in a hurry. “Nie Tian, Miss Pei was here earlier, but she didn’t try to close the portal. Instead, she plunged into the Realm Sea without saying a word and left for the Void World through that portal. As long as we don’t shut the portal, the three powerful races in the Void World will still be able to invade our world!”

The other experts also looked concerned.

Nie Tian, however, had already flown off to float above the Seven Stars Realm Sea.

With an expressionless face, he said, “Don’t worry. It’s not that easy for the three races of the Void World to invade our world now.”

After some time.

The five evil gods arrived one after another, flying from different directions.

They had been scattered in the Nether Realm in the Spirit World and the temporary areas the humans had assigned to the Phantasms. When Nie Tian had decided to enter the Void World, he had sent them his soul will through the Spirit Scepter.

Even without the secret teleportation portal in the Realm of Middle Continent, the evil god of fear made it to the Mortal World through a teleportation portal in the Nether Realm.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

They floated quietly behind Nie Tian like five scary gods from ancient times. The enormous shadows they cast made the entire Seven Stars Realm Sea look dim.

Human experts from different domains had long since learned of the relationship between Nie Tian and the five evil gods.

When the evil god of rage had come to subdue the Phantasms in the Mortal World, he had even explained to the human experts that he had been enforcing Nie Tian and Dong Li’s will.

Therefore, their effort to subdue the remaining Phantasms in the Mortal World had been unobstructed.

As a result of that, many human experts were already used to the sight of them in the Mortal World.

Looking up at the five mountainous evil gods, who were releasing terrifying auras, and thinking of the force Nie Tian had at his command, the human experts that were gathered here started whispering among themselves.

“Five evil gods with the battle prowess of late tenth grade grand monarchs! There isn’t a single force in the Mortal World that can match Nie Tian’s anymore!”

“Aside from the evil gods, he also has the support of the Ripper Behemoth on the floating continent. Then, there’s Yin Xingtian, Yu Suying, Mo Qianfan, Master Blood Spirit, Dong Li, Han Qing...”

“You forgot that he’s close to Miss Pei too.”

“Never has the human world seen a force so strong!”

“Even in their prime, the four great sects wouldn’t have been able to contend against Nie Tian with his current strength!”

“Now, he deserves to be called the strongest force throughout the human world!”

Ye Wenhan from the Heaven Span Pavilion let out a deep sigh, realizing that a new era had come.

Before, he had placed all of his hope in Chu Yuan’s return, assuming that as long as Chu Yuan returned, the Heaven Span Pavilion would be able to keep its status as one of the four great human sects. Perhaps they could even get their Godspan Sword Formation back from Yin Xingtian.

However, he now realized that that was only his wishful thinking.

Even at his peak, Chu Yuan, as a late God domain expert, would only be able to contend against two evil gods at the most. However, Nie Tian had five evil gods at his command!

Furthermore, Nie Tian himself was strong enough to slay Grand Monarch Ash Bone of the Bonedrudes.

What would Chu Yuan be able to do even if he returned?

Chu Rui from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace let out a sigh. Feeling both gratified and bitter, he thought to himself, “Life is so full of changes. I thought he was going to replace Ji Cang as the new Lord of the Stars, and help the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace rise to new heights. Who would have imagined that his rise would be so steep?!”

The way he saw it, Nie Tian had already surpassed Ji Cang.

Even though Ji Cang had been regarded as the strongest Qi warrior, and had governed the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace for a long time, he had never had Nie Tian’s powers.

Nie Tian had made the Ripper Behemoth cooperate with the humans, had made the Floragrims and Ancientspirits take orders from him, and had gained the allegiance of the five evil gods and a group of God domain experts that were strong enough to sweep across the Mortal World!

Right now, the power he himself controlled outmatched that of the four great sects combined!

The Divine Sons and Daughters of the Five Elements Sect had a surreal feeling when looking at Nie Tian, who had five evil gods standing guard behind him.

Once upon a time, Nie Tian had been just another competitor, whose cultivation base and strength had been inferior to theirs.

How many years had it been, and now he had enough power to shake the three worlds?!

A late Saint domain expert cast his gaze down, sensing the flesh aura of the evil god of bloodlust. “It seems that Nie Tian will call the shots from now on. Let alone the Demons and Phantasms, even if he demands that the Blackscales and Birdmen be spared as well, we’ll have no choice but to do it.”

Being from a remote domain, he had only heard stories about Nie Tian before. Never had he met him in person.

He had planned to berate Nie Tian for allowing the Phantasms and Demons to live, assuming that the four great sects might back him up and pressure Nie Tian into changing his mind.

Now, however, after paying secret attention to the expressions of the leaders from the four great sects and feeling the fierceness of the five evil gods, he dropped that idea.

Suddenly, Nie Tian, who was towering over the Seven Stars Realm Sea, started talking. “There’s no need to close the portal. I’ll enter the Void World and turn it upside down. Countless numbers of the three races in the Void World will die because of my arrival. And they won’t have any forces they can spare and send to the Mortal World.

“They’ll be in endless fear and unease as long as I’m alive.”

With these words, he plunged into the Realm Sea.

The five evil gods roared simultaneously, causing even the seven surrounding dead stars to shake violently.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

They disappeared into the Seven Stars Realm Sea after Nie Tian, their auras gradually vanishing from the air.

With a bitter smile, Ye Wenhan turned to Chu Rui and asked, “What do you think of Nie Tian’s wild talk just now, Brother Chu?”

Chu Rui turned to look at him. “Wild talk? You mean where he said that he’ll turn the Void World upside down and make the three races of the Void World live in fear and unease?”

Ye Wenhan nodded.

“He was able to kill Grand Monarch Ash Bone of the Bonedrudes, force Grand Monarch Eternal Purgatory to go into hiding, end the turmoil in the Mortal World, and do whatever he wanted in the Spirit World. Can his words still be regarded as wild talk?” Chu Rui retorted.

Ye Wenhan went blank after hearing his words.

Chu Rui then turned to the others and said, “We don’t have to guard this Realm Sea anymore. I think the three races of the Void World might want to close the portal and guard it from the other side soon. After all, when Dong Li, Yin Xingtian, and those with them rise to new cultivation bases and gain more power, they might make the Void World their target.”

Dou Tianchen’s eyes shone with the light of astonishment. “Are you saying... that they’ll invade the Void World?”

“Why is that so shocking?” Chu Rui said with a wry smile. “You’ve heard yourself that the forces from the Void World are in an unfavorable situation in their battles in the Doomed Star Sea. And they’ve lost a considerable number of people in the Mortal World and the Spirit World. While their strength suffers, Nie Tian and those around him are growing stronger at shocking rates. Why won’t they dare to enter the Void World?”

Dou Tianchen seemed excited. “So we...?”

“Some of us will remain here. If Dong Li and the others are going to enter the Void World too...” After a short pause, Chu Rui continued, “we’ll go with them and make some waves in the Void World together!”
