While Ye Guan was busy replacing the laws within the Supreme Law Seal, he sensed a terrifying aura approaching from behind. His expression changed drastically, and he had no choice but to stop what he was doing.

Turning swiftly, he wielded the Order Sword and slashed downward with all his might.

A cascade of sword light burst forth like a waterfall.

Boom!

The sword light shattered, and Ye Guan was sent hurtling thousands of meters away by the impact.

The Otherworld Ruler came to a halt, frowning. He hadn't expected this seemingly weak young man to be able to withstand his attack. Without hesitation, he prepared to strike again. But before he could, Ye Guan vanished from his spot.

Whoosh!

A streak of sword light instantly closed in the Otherworld Ruler.

The Otherworld Ruler's eyes narrowed as he countered with a powerful punch.

Boom!

Ye Guan was forced back once more.

After regaining his footing, Ye Guan turned his gaze toward Meng Wu and the other experts nearby. "That old man is absorbing all of your power. If he succeeds, your strength will be lost forever.

"If you don't act now, when are you going to make a move?"

Hearing his words, Meng Wu and the others exchanged uncertain glances.

Noticing their hesitation, Ye Guan pressed on. "I'm altering his laws. Once his laws are replaced, you'll become completely free and no longer bound by him. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Meng Wu exchanged glances with Qiong Zhan.

Just then, Qi Fa decisively said, "Help him."

Qi Fa opened her palm, and in an instant, dozens of bolts of lightning descended from the heavens, striking straight at the Otherworld Ruler.

Meng Wu hesitated no longer.

With a huge leap, he charged ferociously at the Otherworld Ruler.

The Otherworld Ruler's face darkened at the sight.

In the distance, Si Wen revealed a grim face at the fact that the Otherworld Ruler was now tied up dealing with Meng Wu and the others.

Their true goal wasn't to assist Meng Wu and his group. It was to kill Ye Guan.

Si Wen turned to the Multiverse Emperor.

The Multiverse Emperor smiled faintly and said, "Hall Master Si Wen, no need to hurry. Everything is under control."

Si Wen's expression froze. He very much wanted to say,

What the hell is wrong with you?

However, he restrained himself. After all, the Temporal Dao Hall had its own agenda and still needed the assistance of the Multiverse Emperor.

Si Wen took a deep breath to calm himself. He glanced at Fan Zhaodi and Fan Daoyuan, who were locked in a fierce battle and said, "Multiverse Emperor, though Fan Daoyuan can absorb the power of all the experts in the Divine Ruins, it seems he can't hold out against that woman. ṚÃℕȯ𝐛Ë𝙨

"Her strength is truly terrifying. Why don't we act now and eliminate Ye Guan first?"

The Multiverse Emperor chuckled. "Hall Master Si Wen, no need to hurry. Everything is under control."

Si Wen's face darkened.

Meanwhile, thanks to Meng Wu and the others, Ye Guan found himself under much less pressure. He quickly resumed the process of replacing the laws within the Supreme Law Seal.

Just then, he noticed something astonishing. A completely new power had begun to emerge within him. The power of the Guanxuan Laws!

Ye Guan was deeply shocked. He hadn't expected that the Supreme Law Seal could endow the Guanxuan Law with such extraordinary power.

He realized that he had severely underestimated the capabilities of this Supreme Law Seal.

Boom!

Just then, a deafening explosion echoed.

Ye Guan looked up to see Fan Daoyuan being forced to retreat. The sight left Ye Guan utterly shocked. Fan Daoyuan had absorbed the power of countless experts across the Divine Ruins, but Fan Zhaodi was still suppressing him.

Fan Zhaodi's strength is absolutely insane!

"Hey!" Meng Wu shouted, "Can you stop zoning out and hurry up with the law replacement? Move, god damn it!"

𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Ye Guan turned to glance at Meng Wu. Despite Meng Wu and Qi Fa working together, they were still being suppressed by the Otherworld Ruler. It was clear their combined strength was no match for their opponent.

As for Qiong Zhan, he was still busy tending to his injuries.

Ye Guan refocused and dedicated himself to replacing the laws. With every law he replaced, Fan Daoyuan became weaker.

Fan Daoyuan's expression was darker than it had ever been. He could not suppress Fan Zhaodi no matter how hard he tried. He was extremely shaken, and he couldn't understand how she was so strong.

Fan Daoyuan stopped his attacks and fixed a deadly glare on her. "What exactly are you trying to achieve with all of this?"

Fan Zhaodi smiled faintly and replied, "All evil laws must be eradicated."

Fan Daoyuan's eyes narrowed. "Evil laws? Tell me, who in this world doesn't act with their own interest in mind? That boy you're so fond of—he's good right now, but can you guarantee that he won't abandon his principles for power someday?"

Fan Zhao glanced at Ye Guan below and smiled. "He won't do that. If he wants power, there's an easier way for him to get it."

Fan Zhaodi understood well that if Ye Guan wanted to pursue power at any cost, all he had to do was become the King of Relying on Others.

The time she had spent with him in the Guanxuan Universe had shown her that while the young man was still weak and immature, his desire to make a difference for all beings was genuine.

He couldn't do a perfect job, but it was fine. What mattered were his intentions.

Fan Daoyuan's gaze bore into Fan Zhaodi, and he clenched his hands tightly. The terrifying energy of the Supreme Laws radiated from him, and its mere presence was enough to crush Law Masters effortlessly.

Even Supreme Sovereigns would struggle to resist it.

Yet, this overwhelming power was completely ineffective against Fan Zhaodi.

Fan Daoyuan glanced at Ye Guan below. Ye Guan's pace was accelerating, and with each replaced law, his aura grew stronger. Ye Guan was not just replacing the Supreme Law; he was also devouring it and using it to strengthen his own.

Fan Daoyuan realized he had to act before it was too late, or his power would be completely lost.

With this thought, he extended his palm, summoning a radiant light ruler.

Fan Zhaodi's eyes narrowed. "The Temporal Ruler."

Fan Daoyuan smirked coldly, locking eyes with Fan Zhaodi. "You are quite insightful. I'm surprised that you recognized this artifact."

Fan Zhaodi smiled. "So it seems you sold more than just your soul to the Temporal Dao Hall."

Fan Daoyuan glared at Fan Zhaodi with an icy gaze, and his voice was filled with suspicion as he asked, "How did you know about the deal with the Temporal Dao Hall? Could it be that you…"

Fan Zhaodi chuckled disdainfully. "Power gained through others' charity, no matter how mighty, is ultimately meaningless. What value does it have?"

Fan Daoyuan sneered. "Is that so? Then let me show you what true power looks like."

Swoosh!

Fan Daoyuan vanished into thin air.

In an instant, a vast temporal river streaked across the battlefield, and its appearance made the starry skies collapse, unable to bear its terrifying might.

Ye Guan sensed that, and his face changed drastically. He looked up to see a river of light, tens of thousands of meters wide and long, descending like a massive ruler toward Fan Zhaodi.

Within the temporal river surged incomprehensible temporal energy, and each strand of it carried a cataclysmic might.

Ye Guan glanced at Fan Zhaodi, worry flashing in his eyes. Could she withstand that attack?

Fan Zhaodi's expression remained calm. She raised her right hand and gently clenched her fist. Countless beams of light erupted from her palm, radiating outward.

Boom!

The starry skies ignited and collapsed simultaneously.

Waves of terrifying energy rippled outward, obliterating everything in their path. Even the Divine Ruins itself began to disintegrate. Fortunately, most of the experts had already evacuated. Otherwise, they would have been annihilated.

Si Wen's expression was grim and fearful at the terrifying sight.

Within the Temporal Dao Hall, aside from the Temporal Dao Ruler, no one could possibly contend with those two. Their strength was on an entirely different level.

Their power… was simply beyond terrifying.

With that thought in mind, he glanced at the nearby Multiverse Emperor. The Multiverse Emperor showed no intention of taking action, standing there with his usual composure and grace. As usual, a faint smile lingered on his face.

Si Wen withdrew his gaze without saying anything further. While he had never sparred with the Multiverse Emperor, he was certain that the man was a formidable powerhouse. All he needed to do was wait and see.

In the distance, Fan Zhaodi faced the colossal temporal river hurtling toward her with an unshaken expression. Suddenly, she vanished, and in an instant, countless radiant beams of light streaked across the battlefield.

A head-on confrontation!

Boom!

The massive temporal river shattered into countless fragments before dissipating entirely. Waves of devastating energy rippled outward, and their sheer intensity was enough to terrify any onlookers.

Fan Daoyuan was sent retreating backward tens of thousands of meters before finally coming to a stop. When he steadied himself, he stared at Fan Zhaodi in disbelief and stammered, "Y-y-you… How is this… possible?!"

He looked down at the Temporal Ruler in his hand, noticing cracks on its surface. The Temporal Ruler was a divine artifact that he had obtained at great cost from the Temporal Dao Hall, but it had actually been damaged.

Fan Zhaodi let out a soft, mocking laugh. "Did you think that bringing out a divine artifact from the Temporal Dao Hall would make you invincible?"

"

Hahaha.

" Fan Daoyuan suddenly laughed as well. "I admit, I underestimated you. But do you think this means you've already won?"

Boom!

Just then, a powerful aura erupted, pervading both the heavens and the earth. Everyone in the vicinity turned to look in shock at the Multiverse Emperor. To their astonishment, the terrifying aura was emanating from him.

Under everyone's gazes, the Multiverse Emperor chuckled and said, "It's time for this child's play to come to an end."

Fan Daoyuan's figure suddenly became illusory. As his figure became fainter and fainter, the Multiverse Emperor's aura became stronger and stronger.

Si Wen stared at the Multiverse Emperor in disbelief, and his voice was trembling as he remarked, "Fan Daoyuan is your avatar!"

Everyone present was stunned.

Fan Daoyuan was merely the avatar of the Multiverse Emperor?

The Multiverse Emperor laughed. "Didn't I tell you? Everything is under control."

Si Wen was ecstatic. It turned out that the Multiverse Emperor wasn't just boasting. He really was

that

powerful!

The outcome was practically decided at this point.

Fan Daoyuan finally vanished, and the Multiverse Emperor's aura surged once again. His aura became so overwhelming that even the most powerful Supreme Sovereigns present were shaking in fear.

Dao God Realm!

He was in the legendary Dao God Realm. To make matters worse, his aura was still skyrocketing.

The Multiverse Emperor glanced at Meng Wu and the others in the distance. With a casual wave, a powerful aura enveloped them. Meng Wu and the others were unable to bear the pressure, and they all dropped to their knees.

Their faces turned ashen, filled with utter despair.

Although they were only one step away from that realm, that single step was the difference between mortals and gods—an insurmountable chasm.

The Multiverse Emperor ignored Meng Wu and the others. He looked at Fan Zhaodi, and a confident smile appeared on his face. "Ye Guan's powerful backers must be the reason you're helping him. Unfortunately, the one behind him is nothing but an insignificant ant before me.

"Don't believe me? I will personally prove it to you, then."

The Multiverse Emperor looked up slowly and gazed into the depths of the starry skies. His eyes then narrowed into slits as he roared, "Plain-Skirt Destiny! Come out here and face me!"
