Chapter 281 The Seven Most Powerful People in the Universe

Ever since he obtained the three ultimate books of the mind-aspect skills of the ascenders, Shen Mu has been practicing and contemplating.

Tens of millions of years passed, and Shen Mu naturally regained his mastery of the ultimate way of the mind.

Although the ultimate path of the mind in this world is extremely special, re-cultivation means re-cultivation, and the speed of progress cannot be discussed according to common sense.

After regaining the ultimate knowledge of the mind, Shen Mu, with the foundation of a mid-stage Divine Emperor, developed the unique skill of willpower, the Qi Yuan Technique, to its limit.

Hence the current scene.

The master of Liekong City possesses two kinds of bloodlines, wind and fire, and both bloodlines have been condensed to the level of the middle stage of the God Emperor. Under the impact of Shen Mu's will, his soul is annihilated in an instant.

At this moment, the impact of Shen Mu's will was truly comparable to that of a high-level Hunyuan life form.

There is an insurmountable gap between high-level Hunyuan life and semi-Hunyuan life. A semi-Hunyuan life can be completely killed in the blink of an eye.

The impact of a simple high-level Hunyuan will naturally cannot match the attack of such a strong man, but it is enough to seriously injure a half-Hunyuan life.

Such terrifying power is really a waste of talent when used to kill a cultivator with a bloodline system of a mid-stage Divine Emperor.

"The owner of the Sky Splitting City...is dead?"

"Instantly, they were completely wiped out!"

"My Hunyuan Ancestor God!"

On the top of Zhiyang City, powerful men looked at Shen Mu in disbelief.

The ascenders in the middle stage of Divine Emperor usually have the strength of the late stage of Divine Emperor because of their weird methods, but they can only be considered as barely comparable.

Normally, a late-stage God Emperor would need thirty to fifty moves to kill a mid-stage God Emperor.

And Shen Mu actually killed the master of Liekong City, who was in at least 90% of his condition, so easily, which shocked the many powerful people present.

In mid-air, Shen Mu's gaze was also on the owner of Likong City who had completely lost his life.

Ever since Shen Mu's own willpower broke the limit of Ban Hunyuan's life force, this was the first time Shen Mu used it against the enemy, and the effect was quite good.

An instantaneous explosion can annihilate the soul of a mid-stage God Emperor.

By this calculation, an ordinary God Emperor in the late stage would instantly suffer soul damage under the outburst of Shen Mu's will. Even if the injury is not serious, it will definitely be serious, which will affect the performance of one's strength.

For Shen Mu, the burst of will is not a big move, but a basic attack.

Shen Mu can condense his will thousands of times in one second and unleash thousands of will attacks of this level.

"If that's the case, a half-pure source life form is not as good as me?"

The strength of a late-stage God Emperor is equivalent to 30% to 40% of the ability of a half-Pure Origin life form, and it is far from being able to kill a late-stage God Emperor in one move.

If it was a bloodline practitioner, even if it was a half-Pure Origin life form, Shen Mu could kill it instantly with one move.

Because for bloodline practitioners, whether they are in the early stage of Divine Emperor or at the Half-Pure Source level, the soul strength is basically at the same level.

Only those who have attained enlightenment, comprehended the many great principles, and evolved the mysteries of the great principles with the power of the soul can increase their strength.

Although the strength of Shen Mu's divine body is only at the level of a mid-stage Divine Emperor's physical body, he would be killed by a half-Pure Origin life form in one move.

However, Shen Mu's "Qi Yuan Shu" is not a secret technique of will impact, but a secret technique of will application that transcends the ultimate level.

It is completely capable of interfering with reality with its will, forming an invisible barrier outside itself to resist any attack.

Shen Mu raised his hand slightly, and his tremendous willpower instantly enveloped the body of the Lord of Liekong City.

"Annihilation!"

Shen Mu recited the Tao, and the power of heaven and earth was mobilized. Time and space collapsed and annihilated instantly, turning into a violent particle stream, annihilating the body of the Lord of Liekong City and turning it into a ball of the purest blood energy.

This ball of blood energy can be condensed into true blood. As long as you absorb this drop of true blood, you will have the corresponding blood.

However, the bloodline of the Lord of Liekong City also comes from the five great ancestors of Hunyuan life.

It is impossible for Shen Mu to refine their blood. Even if he refines their blood, Shen Mu will only look for those natural Hunyuan lives, kill them, and plunder their blood.

The natural Hunyuan life forms are different from wild beasts and humans. They are beings nurtured by the Hunyuan rules and are the source of their bloodline.

"Congeal!"

As soon as Shen Mu finished speaking, this majestic blood force instantly condensed and refined, finally forming a crystal clear blood diamond, emitting energy fluctuations at the initial level of the God Emperor.

The next moment, Shen Mu's figure disappeared from the spot, and the powerful force of his will tore through the void and appeared directly on the top of Zhiyang City.

"Senior!"

"Emperor of Origin!"

Each of Si Xuan's followers saluted Shen Mu tremblingly, and frantically recalled their past tens of millions of years to see if they had offended this big boss.

On the side of the Si Xuan clan, Si Xuan Hongdu, Si Xuan Zhentian, two other clan elders, and the original Elder Lei, the God Emperor with the surname Si Xuan all had complicated expressions and looked at each other.

Si Xuankong walked out of the crowd, feeling a little at a loss.

He was forced out by his father and brother.

"Teacher..." Si Xuankong spoke cautiously.

Shen Mu smiled, and a crystal clear blood diamond flew out and landed in front of him.

"This blood diamond is great. You can refine it slowly and condense your own blood. In ten thousand years or more, you will be able to reach the peak of the king level. There is a great hope that you can directly become a god emperor."

"Ah... this is too expensive."

Si Xuankong quickly waved his hands and shook his head, his whole body expressing rejection, which made a group of Si Xuan family's followers grit their teeth.

If the flight attendant doesn't want it, you can give it to me!!!
"It's useless for me to keep this thing. Although I haven't taught you anything, you are my disciple after all."

As soon as Shen Mu finished speaking, Si Xuanhong said, "Kong'er, how dare you refuse the treasure given by your teacher?"

Si Xuankong trembled all over, and quickly accepted the God Emperor-level true blood condensed into the form of a blood diamond.

At this time, Si Xuan Hongdu bowed slightly to Shen Mu and said, "Senior Yuanqi has lived in seclusion in Si Xuan's family for many years, and Hongdu has never noticed it. I hope I have offended you. Please forgive me."

The most nervous one was Si Xuanlei. When Shen Mu just traveled through time, he called Shen Mu "younger" and "junior", which was too offensive.

However, Si Xuanlei also felt aggrieved. At that time, Shen Mu's breath was unstable, and no matter how you looked at it, he was just an early king-level existence, or at most mid-king-level.

Even if the Ascendant is powerful enough to rival the peak King-level masters, he is still not on the same level as the God Emperor.

But no one expected that Shen Mu, who had ascended to heaven for only tens of millions of years, had transformed himself into the strongest existence among the God Emperors and killed the Lord of Liekong City, who had dual bloodlines, with one move. Shen Mu waved his hand and said, "You don't have to do this. Since you are in seclusion, it is not an offense."

After saying that, Shen Mu patted Si Xuankong on the shoulder again.

"The Lord of Liekong City is dead. I don't need to take any action myself. I'll leave it to your father and his family. Come with me to listen to the music."

Before coming, Shen Mu and Si Xuankong were listening to music in a brothel, and they hadn't finished yet.

In Zhiyang City, the owner of Huanxin Tower trembled when she saw Shen Mu and Si Xuankong travel through time and space and appear in front of her.

"Senior..."

A charming and soft voice sounded, and the owner of Huanxin Tower seemed to melt away, his eyes fixed on Shen Mu's face.

Shen Mu frowned slightly: "Continue playing the piano."

"Yes Yes."

……

At night, in Si Xuan’s magnificent hall, the flickering candlelight casts dim shadows on the entire space.

Si Xuanhongdu and other five God-Emperor-level strongmen of the Si Xuan family sat on the carved wooden chairs with solemn expressions.

Standing beside Si Xuanhongdu was his eldest son, Si Xuanxu.

"Xu'er, in the future, your brother may have to inherit your father's position as the head of the family."

Si Xuanhong looked towards Si Xuanxu with a guilty look on his face. Compared to the playful second son, his eldest son was more hardworking and possessed the sophistication that a head of the family should have. He also had excellent talent and character.

Logically speaking, Si Xuanxu is the most suitable heir to the position of patriarch and city lord.

Si Xuanxu was slightly stunned, and then smiled helplessly: "Father, you scared me with your seriousness, isn't that what I should do?"

"My second brother has become the disciple of Senior Origin, the teacher of a great God Emperor. Apart from the forces belonging to the five ancient clans, how can other forces have such a person in charge?"

"How could I possibly compete with my second brother for the position of the head of the family? After all, I am 200 million years old. It is impossible that I don't know the truth that it is good to enjoy the shade under a big tree. Father, you don't have to worry about anything."

"Even if my second brother is not a good head of the family in the future, I, as his elder brother, will do my best to protect him."

In a Divine Emperor family like the Si Xuan family, it is inevitable that brothers of the same generation will fight with each other, but they will never become real enemies.

No one would be so stupid. Only when the family becomes more prosperous can they enjoy endless wealth and glory in the future.

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the hall.

Si Xuankong walked into the hall with steady steps, and everyone's eyes instantly focused on him.

Si Xuanlei stood up impatiently and asked anxiously, "Kong'er, did Senior Yuanqiong give you any instructions? Also, will Senior Yuanqiong leave our Zhiyang City?"

Si Xuankong shook his head slightly, his expression calm as water, and said slowly: "Uncle Lei, Master has not given any instructions. Moreover, Master has no plans to leave Zhiyang City at the moment. Master never likes to be disturbed, so we must not go there rashly, so as not to upset Master."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Si Xuanhong said with deep emotion: "We will always remember the great kindness that Senior Yuanshi has shown to our Si Xuan clan. It is a great fortune for our Si Xuan clan that Senior lives in our Zhiyang City. With Senior here, our Zhiyang City Si Xuan clan may become the real main clan of the Si Xuan clan in the future."

An elder with white beard and hair also nodded slightly and said, "What Hongdu said is very true. Senior Yuanshi's strength is unfathomable. As long as he stays in Zhiyang City, he will be a powerful deterrent to all forces."

"Before other forces take any action against our Si Xuan clan, they will certainly be wary of the existence of the senior."

Another burly elder also said, "That's right. With this senior in charge of Zhiyang City, we can develop our family power with greater peace of mind without having to worry about any external interference."

In the entire universe, there are only five hundred strong men who possess the combat power of the late God Emperor.

Among them, more than a hundred are members of the Imperial Clan, and the remaining three hundred or so are strong men from the other four ancient clans and their affiliated forces. The number of true independent cultivators in the late stage of the Divine Emperor is less than one hand.

As for the existence of Great Divine Emperors, there were only twenty-three of them before, and there was only one independent cultivator, Shen Mu.

While the Si Xuan family was celebrating because Shen Mu chose to continue staying in Zhiyang City, the world became lively.

The news that the Lord of Liekong City, who had the blood of two mid-stage God Emperors, had his soul instantly annihilated by a God Emperor of great perfection also began to spread!
Almost all the surrounding big cities knew of this shocking news. The appearance of a powerful Divine Emperor who had reached the state of perfection meant that all the territories covering billions of miles had to submit to him.

You know, one mile represents the distance a king-level master flies in one day, across endless mountains and rivers, which is larger than the diameter of the entire cosmic sea. What we are talking about here is the cosmic sea, not the original universe.

In just a dozen days, almost all forces in the universe that possessed a God-Emperor knew that a new God-Emperor had appeared, and that he was an Ascended One.

In the next few days, with Zhiyang City as the center, all major forces with Divine Emperors in the surrounding mountains and rivers within hundreds of millions of miles all sent strong men to lead teams to visit the Si Xuan family of Zhiyang City.

His purpose is very simple, which is to simply know the attitude of this Great Divine Emperor.

If they want to annex other forces, and there is only one force within a radius of billions of miles, then they have to find a way to move.

If you simply express your submission and offer some resources every year, you don't have to abandon your home and career, and you can also get the protection of a great divine emperor, which is not a loss at all.

……

As the protagonist of a popular event, Shen Mu stayed peacefully in his new mansion.

"Senior Origin has now become the focus of attention in the entire universe."

Beside Shen Mu, the Demon Pavilion Master of the Shen Ji Tavern spoke with a smile. His attitude was very natural. He was not very restrained just because Shen Mu suddenly became the strongest man.

Shen Mu smiled and shook his head: "Most of them are just after-dinner talk. Except for a few gossipers, most people will forget about it after a while."

This time, the Demon Pavilion Master refuted: "Senior Origin, you think too simply. You have already become the eighth most powerful being in the entire universe."

As he spoke, the Demon Pavilion Master took out a magical scroll, which was the latest version of the List of God Emperors.

“In the universe, there are 23 powerful people who have achieved the Great Perfection of the Divine Emperor, but you are ranked eighth, second only to the strongest of the five ancient clans and the two Ascended masters. You are known as the eighth most powerful person.”

Being able to instantly annihilate the soul of a mid-stage Divine Emperor bloodline powerhouse means that even a perfect Divine Emperor bloodline powerhouse will have his soul annihilated in front of Shen Mu.

Among the twenty-three semi-Hunyuan beings, only two were ascenders, and the others were practitioners of local bloodline.

However, the ancestors of the five ancient clans possess special treasures, and there are two ascenders with extremely strong souls.

These seven Great God Emperors who are able to crush the bloodline system are known as the seven most powerful beings in the universe. They are not afraid of Shen Mu's soul-destroying attack.

"Who are these two powerful ascenders?" Shen Mu asked curiously.

The Demon Pavilion Master immediately said: "One is named Flame Ancestor, and the other is named Martial Emperor. These two are only half a step away from understanding the laws of the Chaotic Source of Flame and the laws of the Chaotic Source of Martial Arts."

Yanzu, Emperor Wu?
The corners of Shen Mu's mouth twitched slightly. Why not call him Emperor Yan and Martial Ancestor? It sounds more familiar to me this way!
