Chapter 425: jade disc of creation, Mad Fiend

When Han Jue was wondering why pitch blackness appeared in the Nine Heavens, the Heavenly Emperor suddenly stood up and laughed wildly, "Since you are here, why not show yourself? Could it be that you are afraid of Us?"

Han Jue grew secretly nervous. The ending of the Immeasurable Calamity had changed again; who would appear next?

If it were someone he knew, that would be fine. He was just afraid that unknown new figures would appear again.

The mighty figures of the Myriad Heavens and Myriad Realms were countless, and peerless experts hidden in the dark emerged endlessly. Because Han Jue had always been in seclusion, he did not understand the Immortal Realm, let alone the Heavenly Dao.

Suddenly, a ball of blazing flames appeared out of thin air in front of the main gate of Lingxiao Palace. The flames parted, revealing a figure.

Han Jue looked closely and saw that this person was wearing pitch-black armor, with a cloak hanging on his back, unkempt hair, and overflowing Killing Intent, resembling an evil demon general from the Nine Nether Hell.

Han Jue looked carefully and found this person somewhat familiar.

Hmm?

This fellow is…

Zhou Fan!

Han Jue was stunned.

The Immeasurable Calamity had just ended, yet Zhou Fan was already this powerful?

This Aura felt no weaker than Zu Tu.

The Heavenly Emperor smiled contemptuously, "If you weren't a Saint's avatar protected by a Saint, you would have already died by My hands!"

Zhou Fan said calmly, "In this life, I have been defeated by many people, but as long as I am still alive, I can surpass them—including you, Heavenly Emperor. During the Human-God Great War, you devoured the grievances of all living beings everywhere, leaving countless wronged souls unable to transcend. If the Heavenly Dao cannot suppress you, then I will do it!"

"Are you ready to bear the blood debts of hundreds of millions of the Human Race?"

Hearing this, Han Jue frowned. The Heavenly Emperor had turned dark; was the Human Race still bound to perish?

The Heavenly Emperor laughed loudly, his laughter arrogant and unruly, "Just by you? Mortal, you are merely a chess piece. Do you know why I can still become the Heavenly Emperor once more!"

He raised his right hand, and an extremely terrifying Aura erupted. Even though it was just an Evolution Illusion, Han Jue couldn't help but feel terrified.

"I have already surpassed the Heavenly Dao. So what if you are a Saint's avatar! You are not a Saint after all!"

The images before Han Jue shattered accordingly, and his consciousness returned to reality.

His tightly furrowed brows then smoothed out.

Although the Heavenly Emperor had turned dark, as long as they survived this Immeasurable Calamity, it would be fine.

The so-called darkening inherently carried subjective coloring. In this chaotic era, what was wrong with trying one's best to survive?

Furthermore, the Human-God Great War wasn't even instigated by the Heavenly Emperor; it was manipulated by those high-and-mighty Saints.

A single thought from a Saint could cause hundreds of millions of living beings to march to their deaths. How was this not a kind of sin?

Han Jue decided to send a Dream Message to the Heavenly Emperor, using the image of the Dark Forbidden Lord.

After entering the dream, Han Jue saw the Heavenly Emperor, whose image was very close to the Heavenly Emperor in the previous Evolution Illusion. His imperial robe had turned pitch-black, and his entire body exuded a heart-palpitating evil Aura.

This evil Aura was identical to the Eerie Divine Spirit, though not as unfathomable as the Eerie Divine Spirit.

Seeing Han Jue appear, the Heavenly Emperor was not surprised at all; instead, he revealed a smile.

Before Han Jue could speak, the Heavenly Emperor laughed first, "I truly didn't misjudge you, Han Jue. You have already attained Daluo, haven't you?"

Han Jue's heart shuddered, but on the surface, he did not panic.

How could the Heavenly Emperor know his true identity?

He must be bluffing him!

"Ever since you came to find Us, Jade Emperor Zhou Yan began to decline. We had just completed Fusion with the evil spirit when you appeared again. You truly care about Us," the Heavenly Emperor said with a half-smile, his expression sinister.

Han Jue was very unaccustomed to this attitude of his and asked in his heart, "Is the Heavenly Emperor bluffing me?"

[100 million years of lifespan will be deducted. Do you want to continue?]

Lie detection costs 100 million years?

Damn System!

Continue!

Han Jue cursed inwardly.

[He is testing you.]

Hmm?

It really was a bluff!

Han Jue instantly stopped feeling nervous.

Although the Heavenly Emperor's Favorability toward him hadn't dropped, the identity of the Dark Forbidden Lord was of paramount importance, so he had to be on guard.

"You don't need to admit it; I understand everything. If not for your help, I am afraid my body and soul would have already been utterly destroyed."

The Heavenly Emperor laughed to himself, "I plan to Attain the Dao by utilizing the Karma of the Immeasurable Calamity here, and thus I need a new identity. How about I act as the emissary of the Dark Forbidden Lord from now on?"

Han Jue spoke, "Put aside your guesses. There are many people who act in My name. Furthermore, you are the Heavenly Emperor; how can you evade heavenly secrets?"

The Heavenly Emperor said nonchalantly, "I have already transformed. In the eyes of Da Jiutian, I have undergone Possession, and the former Heavenly Emperor no longer exists. Only you know that I am still my original self."

"When I Attain the Dao, I will protect you so that you no longer have to hide in the dark, and you can help Me curse certain existences. How about it?"

Han Jue fell silent.

This motherfucker was trying to drag him into the calamity!

It would be fine if the Heavenly Emperor didn't know his identity, but now he was forcibly guessing that he was the Dark Forbidden Lord. If he executed the Heavenly Emperor's plan, would he be calculated by the Saints by fluke?

"I know what you are hesitating about. During the Immeasurable Calamity, Saints cannot deduce those involved in the calamity, nor can they calculate the Karma on Me, because I possess a supreme treasure left behind by the Dao Ancestor."

The Heavenly Emperor said with full confidence.

Han Jue was not at ease and evolved the supreme treasure mentioned by the Heavenly Emperor.

[3 billion years of lifespan will be deducted. Do you want to continue?]

Continue!

Seek wealth and safety steadily!

[Fragment of the jade disc of creation: Damaged Chaos Supreme Treasure, relic of the Dao Ancestor. Can shield against heavenly secrets and all Karma calculations.]

Hmm?

There really is one?

It looks so awesome!

"Are you sure it is on the Heavenly Emperor?"

[Sure.]

Han Jue breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Who do you need me to curse?"

The Heavenly Emperor said, "First curse Da Jiutian and Jade Emperor Zhou Yan to death. They might expose My current foundations."

"Hn, they plotted against Li Daokong; I wouldn't have let them off anyway."

Han Jue acknowledged and then broke the dream.

Back in reality, Han Jue felt remorseful in his heart.

He had almost been exposed!

He must be even more careful in the future!

He couldn't be bluffed by others!

As for cursing Da Jiutian and Jade Emperor Zhou Yan, it fell right in line with Han Jue's intentions.

Since the Heavenly Emperor possessed the fragment of the jade disc of creation, the Saints could not deduce it. As long as he didn't speak of it, Han Jue would not be exposed.

As for the Heavenly Emperor, Han Jue could still trust him.

As long as he didn't admit it personally, the Heavenly Emperor wouldn't forcefully pin the blame of the Dark Forbidden Lord on his head.

Han Jue shook his head and continued to Cultivate.

He used the monotonous Cultivation to dilute his irritable mood and unease.

…

Twenty years later.

Han Jue took out the book of misfortune, and while cursing Jade Emperor Zhou Yan, he checked the mail.

[Your friend Jiang Dugu was attacked by your friend Li Daokong and sustained heavy injuries.]

[Your friend the Heavenly Emperor entered the Primordial Forbidden Land.]

[Your Grand-disciple Fang Liang inherited the Luck of the Primordial Races, achieved Fusion with the Primordial Divine Body, and his Dao Cultivation skyrocketed.]

[Your friend Immortal God Ji was attacked by a God Realm expert of the Heavenly Court and sustained heavy injuries, escaping narrowly with a wisp of remnant soul.]

[Your friend Jiang Dugu was attacked by your friend Li Daokong and sustained heavy injuries.]

[Your friend Tai Su Tian inherited the main body's Dao Cultivation, and her Luck transformed.]

[Your friend Jiang Dugu was attacked by your friend Li Daokong and sustained heavy injuries.]

…

Li Daokong had gone crazy again!

This fellow seemed to chase and beat whoever defeated him; he was simply a mad fiend!

Han Jue watched in amazement.

Jiang Dugu was a terrifying existence who suppressed the Primordial Phoenix!

Furthermore, he also belonged to the Human Sect!

Internal strife in the Human Sect?

After sighing, Han Jue shifted his attention onto Fang Liang.

His expression turned peculiar.
