Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence-Chapter 767 - 350: Minghao

Taihe Hall was filled with powerful experts from the Dusk Realm, emerging from the shadows at the very moment the puppet Mortal Emperor collapsed.

The weakest among them were at the Unity Realm Stage, and there were eleven Human Immortals and four Heavenly Immortals, powerful enough to sweep most forces in the Primal Chaos Realm.

Yet such a formidable group of experts had no way to interfere with the stillness of the temporal-spatial plane until after the Mortal Emperor’s death, when they hastily made their presence known.

By missing the opportunity to act, they had sealed their fate.

With the death of the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty’s Mortal Emperor, Shen Yuan became the sole master of the Primal Chaos Realm’s Mortal Path’s main trend, seizing it from the manipulation of the Mortal Emperor.

Although this part of Mortal Path’s main trend was a mere fraction of its peak, not enough to grant Shen Yuan complete control over humanity fate.

But with no Mortal Emperor to return to their position, Shen Yuan, as the sole master of the Primal Chaos Realm’s Mortal Path’s main trend, had, to some extent, taken over the duties of the Mortal Emperor.

Inside Taihe Hall, without the puppet Mortal Emperor’s concealment, the aura of beings from the Dusk Realm could no longer be hidden, eliciting suppression from the Mortal Path’s main trend within the Imperial City against foreign species.

The Mortal Emperor’s Seal fell into Shen Yuan’s hand, this ancient seal which had suppressed Human Clan’s history and symbolized the Mortal Emperor’s authority, pressed down from above the Nine Heavens, and the might of Mortal Path’s main trend burst forth unreservedly.

Even in the absence of the Mortal Emperor at the center, Mortal Path’s main trend still represented one of the main trends of All Worlds, and where the Mortal Emperor’s Seal landed, all beings turned to ruins, with the four Heavenly Immortals of the Primal Chaos Realm having no power to resist and perishing on the spot.

All this happened in the blink of an eye; the several Heavenly Immortals hidden within Taihe Hall hadn’t even had the chance to make an appearance before their end was declared.

Outside Taihe Hall, everyone stared blankly at the site of the hall which had been thoroughly erased.

The grand palace was gone, leaving behind an unfathomable abyss, where the despair of dying Immortals and the roar of perishing Heavenly Immortals still echoed.

Then, beams of golden light manifested from the Mortal Path’s main trend above the firmament descended, slowly healing the abyss.

In the end, it was Ji Zhaoyang who first snapped out of shock, hurriedly offering his respects to Shen Yuan:

"Thank you, Taoist Shen, for suppressing the evil demons and protecting the righteous lineage of our Human Clan!"

The civil and military officials couldn’t help but glance at Ji Zhaoyang, who appeared both surprised and pleased, and immediately realized that Ji Zhaoyang was able to discern the true nature behind the puppet Mortal Emperor and muster the confidence to confront it before Taihe Hall, precisely because of the assistance from the Falling Clouds Taoist.

The assembled ministers and nobles breathed a sigh of relief, and one by one they paid their respects to Shen Yuan, proclaiming:

"Venerable Taoist’s great righteousness!"

"The Venerable Taoist has saved a collapsing state from disaster and suppressed the outer evil; truly deserving the name of the Supreme Taoist."

"Only after witnessing the Taoist’s appearance today did I realize what a true Supreme Prodigy looks like."

"No wonder, after the Luotian Convention, this puppet Mortal Emperor insisted on executing the Supreme Taoist; it turns out the Taoist had long seen through the puppet Mortal Emperor’s veil, prompting the enemy to silence and eliminate him."

A chorus of flattering sounds continued to rise, but among the full court of dignitaries present, not everyone was genuinely delighted.

At this moment, Crown Prince Ji Xuanyi’s face was pale, his expression uglier than ever.

He had thought that with the puppet Mortal Emperor supporting him, he was being prepared to be named the heir to the throne; but he didn’t realize until the opponent’s identity was revealed that he was nothing more than a pawn to suppress Ji Zhaoyang.

In the midst of the previous chaos, he hesitated for a long time before deciding not to act.

The Imperial Guards who were suppressing the ministers and nobles did not target him because he, the nominal Crown Prince of Great Yin, was still of use; he could rely on this to save his life.

Moreover, if played correctly, there was no reason he couldn’t ascend to the Mortal Emperor’s throne under the restrictions of those behind the scenes.

No sooner had such a thought arisen than reality dealt him another heavy blow.

The Supreme Taoist, with whom he had conflicts before, suddenly appeared and swept away everything with the force of thunder, crushing all the hidden hands behind the scenes.

Shen Yuan and Ji Zhaoyang were leading the current chaotic situation, and he, the Crown Prince of Great Yin, was completely forced into a desperate situation.

Ji Xuanyi seemed to have foreseen his tragically doomed future.

Suddenly, a faint voice suddenly echoed in his heart.

"Do you want revenge?"

"Revenge?"

At that moment, Ji Xuanyi’s thoughts became stiff, like a rust-covered, decayed mechanism, cycling endlessly on the word "revenge."

The gears issued shrill, grating sounds, and his consciousness began to sink into a boundless expanse of Turmoil.

The Return-to-Void Great True Being’s True Spirit was frantically warning, an amulet shaped like a dragon that he carried was emitting light from a protective god to resist an unknown erosion, but all of it was to no avail.

Under the heir’s headdress, the flesh began to rot and wriggle strangely, as his Spiritual Platform was covered in a decaying and mottled yellow hue.

Suddenly, a dark and silent gate quietly opened above Ji Xuanyi’s Spiritual Platform, its eerie and dark aura descending upon the area outside Taihe Hall in an instant.

Shen Yuan’s gaze abruptly sharpened, his eyes immediately focusing on Ji Xuanyi, who stood frozen with a stiff and lifeless expression.

"Is this the Dusk Realm’s contingency plan?"

As the thought arose in his mind, Shen Yuan took decisive action the very next moment.

The Mortal Path’s main trend intertwined in Shen Yuan’s palm, the Mortal Emperor’s Seal once again activated, sealing the space surrounding Ji Xuanyi, followed by a thunderous descent of the Mortal Emperor’s Seal.

Space shattered under the Mortal Emperor’s Seal, Ji Xuanyi’s protective Taoist artifact managed only a brief activation before it rapidly collapsed, and the Return-to-Void Great True Being’s physical body turned to ash under the Mortal Emperor’s Seal.
