Strongest War Emperor

Shen Lang gleaned a great deal of information from Yu Lingfeng’s account.

He began to constantly analyze the underlying implications.

’Since the Blood Race already knew their own fate and even made arrangements for some unknown time in the future... then the Blood Ancestor being ganged up on and killed back then seems a bit strange. That bastard wasn’t just powerful, he was sinister and cunning to the extreme. How could he have died so easily, so cleanly?’

’No matter how I look at it, it seems like the Blood Ancestor was just going with the flow, intentionally letting the experts of the various races kill him...’

Shen Lang’s head began to ache from thinking. Without more information to support his theories, he couldn’t come to any real conclusion.

He could only nod apologetically, gesturing for Yu Lingfeng to continue.

...

After learning of this sliver of a chance for survival, the Pangu Divine Race completely vanished behind the scenes.

On one hand, they secretly helped the major races grow stronger, wearing down the power of the Blood Race;

On the other, they had the Witch Race, whom they had enlightened after arriving in this world, take the stage, hoping to use their power to restrain the Blood Race and curb their expansion.

And so, it was at this time that the Witch Race stepped onto the stage of history!

The Witch Race was originally a branch of the Human Race.

The Pangu Divine Race enlightened them, had them practice the Cultivation Techniques of the Pangu Divine Race, and learn their various Divine Techniques.

After tens of thousands of years, the Witch Race finally became a force capable of keeping the Blood Race in check.

Moreover, the strongest of the Witch Race, the Witch Ancestor, earned the respect of all the experts in the world, becoming one of the ”Five Emperors and Six Ancestors.”

From then on, the Blood Race and the Ten Thousand Races Alliance Army entered a war of attrition, constantly attacking each other and suffering mutual losses.

This situation continued for a full five hundred thousand years...

Over more than five hundred thousand years, seas turned into mulberry fields, and the world changed.

But the Ten Thousand Races Alliance Army’s fight against the Blood Race continued on without much change.

Under the secret guidance and arrangement of the Pangu Divine Race, the Ten Thousand Races Alliance Army, which had gathered the power of the entire Human Realm, began to effectively use tactics. They deliberately retreated, making it seem as if they were in a position of weakness.

Seizing this opportunity, and after five hundred thousand years of development, the Human Race grew and strengthened, becoming the largest race in this world.

Meanwhile, the War God Hall, which led the Human Race, began to produce a steady stream of supreme experts through endless slaughter and with the help of the Witch Race, faintly becoming the leader of the Ten Thousand Races Alliance Army.

It was at this time that the ”Five Emperors and Five Ancestors,” who stood against the Blood Ancestor, became a beacon for the entire Human Realm. They became the ten undisputed supreme beings of the Star Continent, whose commands none in the world dared to disobey.

With the Five Emperors and Five Ancestors at the core, and under the leadership of Peak powers like the War God Hall and the Myriad Beasts Mansion, the previously deadlocked war situation began to change.

The Ten Thousand Races Alliance Army began to seize the initiative and turn the tide.

And at this moment, the Pangu Divine Race, after expending the Divine Power of many experts over several hundred thousand years, and using the ”Life Spiritual Liquid” brought from the Pangu Realm, finally concocted a medicine that could counter the Blood Race and dissolve their Blood Energy!

With this heaven-defying medicine, the Ten Thousand Races Alliance Army completely suppressed the Blood Race!

”’Life Spiritual Liquid’... What is that?”

Shen Lang suddenly interrupted Yu Lingfeng to ask the question.

He had spoken up just as Yu Lingfeng was recounting the beginning and end of the ”Blood Race Chaos.”

Yu Lingfeng glanced at Shen Lang, a little surprised.

While the ”Life Spiritual Liquid” was certainly an incredible Exotic Treasure, the focus right now should have been on the Blood Ancestor and the Blood Race, not the liquid itself.

”In the Pangu Realm, there is a small Spring of Life. Legend has it that this Spring of Life has existed since the beginning of creation, born from Chaos itself, and possesses the unfathomable divine might to nurture life. Countless years ago, the Six Realms waged a true war of Divine Demons to fight over this Spring of Life, causing innumerable planes to be caught in the crossfire and annihilated...”

”The Life Spiritual Liquid is the water from the Spring of Life. In all of heaven and earth, only the Pangu Divine Race possesses it.”

”A single drop of Life Spiritual Liquid is enough to sustain the Spiritual Qi consumption of a world like the Star Continent for ten thousand years...”

”What!” Shen Lang, who had been calm until now, was stunned!

Based on Yu Lingfeng’s description, Shen Lang was certain of one thing.

The ”Life Spiritual Liquid” that drifted out from the Gate of Creation within the Heaven-Sealing Cauldron had to be the same ”Life Spiritual Liquid” she was talking about.

Shen Lang already understood how heaven-defying this item was.

But to say that a single drop could sustain a world like the Star Continent for ten thousand years... that was simply unbelievable!

In fact, Shen Lang was currently consuming one drop every month!

Although he gave a third of it to Zuo Wentian, still...

”Ling Feng, are you sure the Life Spiritual Liquid is that heaven-defying? A single drop is enough to sustain a world like the Star Continent for ten thousand years?” Countless thoughts flashed through Shen Lang’s mind as he cautiously asked again.

Yu Lingfeng didn’t think much of Shen Lang’s surprise. After all, such a thing was indeed too shocking for the world to comprehend.

She nodded and said, ”Everything about the Life Spiritual Liquid was told to us by our mother in our dreams when we were born... And our mother learned it from the Pangu Divine Race, so it can’t be false.”

”Furthermore, it was precisely by relying on the Life Spiritual Liquid that our mother was able to grow and develop to her current state.”

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Shen Lang pressed on, unwilling to give up, ”What does the Life Spiritual Liquid look like? Does any of it still exist in this world?”

Yu Lingfeng smiled faintly and said, ”The Life Spiritual Liquid is the water from the Spring of Life, but after leaving the spring, it takes a solid form, like green jade. It’s crystal clear and filled with unimaginable Life Energy. It can perform miracles of Life and Death, Flesh and Bone, and its creative power is endless.”

”Now that the Pangu Divine Race has left the Human Realm, there shouldn’t be any of it left here.”

’That scared the hell out of me.’ Shen Lang breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.

In Yu Lingfeng’s description, the Life Spiritual Liquid was a jade-like solid, whereas the Life Spiritual Liquid Shen Lang had obtained was in a liquid state.

’It seems the Life Spiritual Liquid that floated out of the Gate of Creation must have been diluted.’

”Ahem, I was just a little curious, sorry about that. Ling Feng, please continue,” Shen Lang said, waving his hand awkwardly.

Yu Lingfeng gave a slight nod and continued narrating the unknown secrets.

After several hundred thousand years, the Pangu Divine Race finally concocted the medicine capable of countering the Blood Race.

After creating this medicine, the Pangu Divine Race gave it to the Witch Race, and then used the Witch Race to deliver it into the hands of the Ten Thousand Races Alliance Army.

Afterward, the supreme experts of the War God Hall and the Myriad Beasts Mansion secretly spread this medicine throughout the Blood Race’s territory.

The Pangu Divine Race, who were said to have participated in the creation of the heavens and the earth, truly possessed immense Divine Techniques.

The medicine they created was utterly heaven-defying!

This medicine contained an unbelievably abundant amount of Spiritual Qi, and this Spiritual Qi was converted from ”Life Spiritual Liquid,” making it supremely pure.

It was almost impossible for any person or race to perceive such pure Spiritual Qi as a poison.

After this medicine spread through the Blood Race territory, it quickly caused the Spiritual Qi in the entire region to become extremely dense!

The people of the Blood Race were initially very flustered by this strange change.

But after dispatching numerous experts to investigate, they found nothing abnormal aside from the abundant and pure Spiritual Qi, so they let it be.

From that moment on, the medicine, which only affected the Blood Race, began to take effect.

In the Blood Race members who came into contact with this medicine, the Blood Energy within their bodies began to subtly change, growing weaker, while their cells began to undergo an uncontrollable mutation!

Ten years...

A hundred years...

Time passed, bit by bit.

The Blood Race, who fed on fresh blood and relied on the power within it to strengthen themselves, became more and more ”normal,” beginning to resemble the Human Race.

They were no longer as thirsty for fresh blood as before, and the process of extracting the power from blood to make it their own became increasingly difficult.

Not only that, but the effect of the Blood Race’s ”Initial Embrace” grew weaker and weaker. The probability of a bitten person turning into a member of the Blood Race became lower and lower.

It was like boiling a frog in slowly heating water, a death by a thousand cuts!

By the time the Blood Race realized something was wrong, it was already too late.

All members of the Blood Race who had been exposed to the medicine had begun an irreversible transformation.

They began to lose the characteristics of the Blood Race and forfeit their great power.

After only a few thousand years, the Blood Race could no longer spread outward like a virus...

The appearance of this medicine completely halted the Blood Race’s frenzied expansion.

The Ten Thousand Races Alliance Army had finally turned defeat into victory, forcing the Blood Ancestor into a desperate corner!

The legendary final battle finally burst forth in the Blood Race’s territory.

Under the combined attacks of the other Five Ancestors, the Five Emperors, and countless experts from various races, the Blood Ancestor was finally exhausted.

At the most critical moment, when the Blood Ancestor was at his weakest, the Witch Ancestor unleashed a Forbidden Technique, trapping the Blood Ancestor within his own palace.

Afterward, the Blood Ancestor’s palace collapsed with a thunderous roar, forming a massive tomb that sank into the earth and vanished completely.

As for the Blood Race, they were almost completely slaughtered by the enraged experts of the other races.

Only a few small tribes remained, barely surviving. They had completely lost the inherent advantages of the Blood Race, and in the end, it was only due to the intervention of the Witch Race that they were allowed to live.

As all the races cheered loudly in universal celebration...

Members of the Witch Race came forward to remind the experts of the various races that the Blood Ancestor was not yet dead.

However, aside from a few supreme experts, no one believed them. Instead, they thought the Witch Race was just fearmongering to seek attention!

Shunned and doubted by many races, the Witch Race did not argue. They silently retreated into the Barbaric lands and lived in seclusion.

...

「Rewinding time.」

After deducing that sliver of a chance for survival, another powerful Elder of the Pangu Divine Race also did something.

He tossed a tiny seed into Moonlight Lake in the Barbaric lands.

Then, the Pangu Divine Race dropped a single drop of ”Life Spiritual Liquid” into Moonlight Lake.

The once-ordinary Moonlight Lake was completely transformed.

The Spiritual Qi in the lake water became incredibly vigorous, to the point that the entire lake seemed to have turned into pure Spiritual Qi.

Countless living creatures were drawn to the lake’s shore.

Elves sang upon the lake’s surface...

And the moment that seed came into contact with the power of the ”Life Spiritual Liquid,” it immediately took root and sprouted, quickly growing into a colossal, sky-reaching tree... the Eternal Tree.
