Chapter 714: Everything Returned, Reaping the Benefits

“Shui Wuge, can your power still support you in suppressing the world?”

“Even with the Dao Child of the celestial clans before you, you have not made a move. When do you plan to act? What are you really considering?”

Qing Kong noticed that Shui Wuge had not attacked Qing Liu Sheng.

This was unusual; with Qing Liu Sheng’s identity, a simple investigation would quickly reveal everything.

The laws of the Celestial Empire only protect citizens; non-citizens, if not enemies, are not bound by the Dao tools, and Shui Wuge has the strength to act.

Perhaps her power has already begun to weaken!

“Indeed, Liu Sheng is destined to be unmatched in the world!”

…

“Don’t think about it anymore!”

“First, we must win!”

Tiankai revitalized her mindset.

In the chaotic void of the Power of Opening Heaven and Earth, she felt lost and empty in all directions.

But she didn’t need to know.

She closed her fingers and pointed to the sky, merging and intertwining twelve forces, unleashing an immeasurable great power!

A beam of light cut through the chaos, opening Heaven and Earth!

“Earthly Branch Cave Techniques!”

“Twelve Seconds Time!”

She could not afford to wait for defeat; she began to struggle with all her might. The chaos was pushed apart, and the four powers of Earth’s Wind, Water, and Fire belonging to Qing Liu Sheng were blocked outside the cave.

However, the cracks rapidly spread, far surpassing Ni Xin Zhao. The overwhelming Power of Opening Heaven and Earth was dismantling the Earthly Branch Cave.

“I have mastered the strongest spell! Even if unexpected enemies appear, why can’t I fight?”

“What does it matter that Qing Liu Sheng can naturally open a cave? I can suppress too!”

“I come for the two immortals; what’s a new generation genius to me?”

“I am the true Unmatched and undefeated!”

Tiankai unleashed her spell, fully activating the Earthly Branch Cave. The divine blood also fully revived, and the phantom of the Calamity Energy Fox covered the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox.

Divine blood is extraordinary; she could not display its power until her body reached another level of being, allowing for its revival!

This is her reason to have the courage to confront the two immortals; even if the future Path Lord masters the Future Spirit Law, comparable to the Dao Classics, divine blood can give her the power to resist!

The Divine Phoenix is a direct bloodline of the World God, existing since before the human era, merely sleeping and considered a demigod.

Its power is enough to crush everything; it can draw strength from the ancient World God, no matter where they are, even the Heavenly Stem Cave Heaven might not be able to match it.

With blood of such existence, how can she not confront the young True Immortal of Colorful Glow or the future Path Lord?

Suppressing a mere Dao Child of the celestial clans, what’s the harm?

Complete Future Spirit Law!

Before Qing Liu Sheng opened the Earthly Branch Cave, he already understood its weaknesses. His Spirit Sense spread, and his figure began to accelerate as he activated the Future Spirit Law!

The Complete Future Spirit Law was born after achieving Major Achievement in the Royal Path of Tong Ming Qiong. Various powers had been further enhanced, not just extreme foresight into the future.

Unfortunately, Yun Ye did not possess the foundation of Tong Ming Qiong. Even practicing the same law, his Power was far inferior. Therefore, the projection of Qing Liu Sheng on the Heavenly Path did not fully unleash the Complete Future Spirit Law but instead accumulated and continuously took away Tiankai’s future.

“Time Lock!”

Tiankai did not notice, continuously using the Cave Power of the Earthly Branch Cave to counter Yun Ye. However, she was shocked that her further enhanced power could not compete with the ordinary Qing Liu Sheng, who effortlessly shattered her defenses, slowly closing in on her.

She realized that it was not the distance in space they were dealing with, but the diminishing power she had left. When her strength was exhausted, that would be the moment Qing Liu Sheng took her life!

“Clang! Clang! Clang!”

The beam of light pulsed rhythmically.

She sensed the gap, activating the twelve-second fastest enhancement of the Earthly Branch Cave. Now, three seconds had passed, and her power was rapidly rising!

From a position of being completely unable to compete and forced to forcefully awaken her divine bloodline, she was now barely able to hold her ground—all thanks to just three seconds!

She still had hope; as long as she could wait until six seconds passed, the balance would be broken!

Then, she was astonished to find that Qing Liu Sheng had actually stopped, rarely not taking action, and instead looked at her with those green eyes.

“What’s… happening?”

Tiankai did not understand what Qing Liu Sheng was doing.

But the latter told her, sending her plunging into ice-cold despair.

“The outcome is decided.”

Qing Liu Sheng said.

Then, something incomprehensible happened.

The Earthly Branch Cave split into three beams of light…

With a loud boom.

Everything vanished into thin air.

She suddenly turned and looked at what should have showcased unstoppable power, the Earthly Branch Cave, as numerous fragments separated, heading towards complete destruction.

What just happened?

She couldn’t comprehend it at all!

Without any warning, her Earthly Branch Cave shattered like a joke—what was going on?

“…”

The gods of the entire Red Heaven realm fell silent. With their keen eyesight, they couldn’t discern what exactly had happened, appearing as bewildered as ordinary people.

With Tiankai’s current strength, opening the Earthly Branch Cave should have brought her close to the level of a Master of Heaven’s Cavern, meaning she was comparable to the Royal Path.

The Royal Path could easily suppress all authority; the combined strength of all the Honored Beings in the Red Heaven could not match a Monarch and would be subdued in one move.

Yet, such a powerful cave, with a loud bang, exploded like fireworks.

Naturally, they were left in confusion.

What happened?

“President… what did you do?”

Tiankai raised her beautiful face, which was pale. She knew she had lost this battle, and there was no opportunity left for her.

She had poured all her power into the cave. To open it again, she had to wait for her strength to recover.

In this Heavenly Path, would her opponent allow her to consume vast resources to regain her power?

“I will take away your future.”

The young man stepped forward, walking to Tiankai’s side. As he passed her, her body seemed to shatter into particles, becoming ethereal and teetering at the edge of life and death, sustained only by her unmatched Spirit Sense for a brief moment.

Tiankai watched as the young man’s figure faded away, his blue robe gradually turning into White Mist. Only one sentence echoed, resounding throughout the Red Heaven realm.

“I, as the Dao Child of the heavens, am born unmatched and undefeated, destined to defeat all enemies…”

Countless people were shocked.

Countless people were astonished.

Tiankai swept across the ninth-level Heavenly Path, demonstrating the terrifying potential of the king of the Manifest Realm being reborn as a person, overwhelming and fearsome.

Yet Qing Liu Sheng was even more monstrous. He possessed no Killing Power, relying solely on years of cultivation, easily defeating Tiankai with effortless strength.

The cave?

The one that had defeated the young Divine Monarch collapsed, erased from existence by an unknown and fearsome law!

“I lost; everything returns.”

Tiankai watched helplessly as all the Killing Power she had gained was taken back. The immense fortune she had accumulated dissolved completely.

Qing Liu Sheng was a living person, not a projection from history. Instead of gaining fortune from defeating her, he would return everything.

Return to where?

Naturally, to Qing Liu Sheng himself!

Not only was the fortune she had gained returned, but much of the fortune that belonged to the king of the Manifest Realm and to the True Spirit and monsters also crumbled, flowing towards the victor.

Tiankai displayed a bitter expression.

The Earthly Branch Cave was not shattered, nor was its power exhausted; it was simply—

Time was up!

Just as she had subdued the young Divine Monarch, Qing Liu Sheng’s law completely suppressed her; it was a battle she was destined to lose.

The beam of light fell from the sky, immense enough to grant a mortal the Killing Power of a Supreme Being. Yun Ye sat in the stands, his aura contained perfectly, with no energy leaking.

Everything was a predetermined future; he felt no surprise, merely walking methodically toward this future.

“The Complete Future Spirit Law counters the Earthly Branch Cave so effectively that it doesn’t even need to use its full strength.”

“Whether facing me or confronting Tong Ming Qiong, it’s a challenge destined to fail…”

The Future Spirit Law had been elevated by the Dao Classics and was further enhanced by the sacrifice of the Three Monarchs, making it the closest to absolute rules—a half-step towards absolute rules. It could foresee even the future of True Immortals, so it was also capable of perceiving beings from the Red Heaven realm.

The Future Spirit Law was not just about peeking into the future; Yun Ye had previously summoned future existences, while Tong Ming Qiong had accelerated time to reach the future.

All of the cultivators slain by Tong Ming Qiong did not die in another World Line; rather, their futures were terminated, akin to being fast-forwarded to old age and death. After all, the Trials of the Heavenly Path did not require deceiving True Immortals; creating a new World Line was merely redundant.

This kind of power was something Tiankai could not withstand with the Earthly Branch Cave, no matter what.
