Chapter 27: Qing Shi Town, Zi Hai

  A young man in a green robe, wrapped in the aura of yin and yang, with an expressionless face, saw the "Blood God Emperor" approaching with a round bead in hand, but showed no fear. He took a step forward with his hands behind his back, and his feet flashed with extreme Tao rhyme. Then, he swung his fist and threw out a punch that contained an invincible aura.

  "Roar......"

  The two treated Horan's body as a mere space, seemingly disregarding his feelings. As they clashed, their divine might was like a prison, and their divine grace was like the sea. The laws of the great Tao collided and burst forth with extreme radiance, causing Horan's body to suddenly expand and contract. His meridians snapped one by one, unable to withstand the pain that made him scream loudly. His pale face dripped with sweat, drop by drop falling to the ground.

  "Who is that person in green clothes, and why did my Qi Hai evolve into the Blood God Emperor?!" Huo Ran shouted in his heart, but no one answered. The two peerless fierce men inside him became more and more intense, with a wave of their hands having the power to destroy the sky and earth, suppressing all worlds.

  And suddenly, He Ran's body was thrown against the stone wall on the ceiling and then again to the ground. This made him not only feel like his internal organs were being slowly cut by a sharp knife, but also caused his external body to be covered in blood from colliding with the hard stone wall.

  *Boom!*

  Crunch...

  After Huan Ran had another intimate contact with the stone wall, his sternum was shattered. Then, a series of cracking sounds erupted from within his body, and his hand bones, leg bones, and other bones broke one by one, leaving him lying on the ground like a puddle of mud.

  The intense physical pain twisted Howard's face into a grotesque grimace. At first, he could still let out a scream, but later on, he didn't even have the strength to open his mouth and make a sound, only his eyeballs would suddenly shrink in and then bulge out, as if they were about to pop out at any moment.

  While the Blood God Emperor and the Green Robed Man inside his body were also fighting to a critical point, both of them were disheveled and panting, no longer as elegant and refined as before. Between the two, the Blood Colored Orb and the Yin Yang Diagram were fighting on behalf of their master, each radiating an undying divine light, overflowing with an aura that could destroy the heavens and earth, turning the inside of Huo Ran's body into a "ruin".

  "Hmmph..."

  He suddenly coughed up large mouthfuls of fresh blood, his expression was listless and his breath was weak. If the internal struggle in his body did not stop, he would surely die.

  Hummm...

  Hummm...

  In Horan's body, two earth-shattering artifacts burst forth with unparalleled brilliance, ready to engage in the final battle. Meanwhile, the Blood God Emperor and the Green Robed Man also closed their eyes, connecting with their respective artifacts, preparing to unleash the most powerful strike.

  Almost all of his consciousness was about to dissipate, but suddenly he saw the scene inside his body and couldn't help but feel a sense of despair. He knew that if there wasn't a miracle, even with a hundred lives, he would still die beyond death. That person in green could contend with the Blood God Emperor without being defeated; apart from also being an invincible great emperor, could it be someone else?

  Two great emperors unfolded their unparalleled conquests within his body, not to mention that there would be no one after him, but at least he was unprecedented in the past. Normally, when two great emperors clashed, they would definitely pierce through the sky and shatter the earth, let alone a mere Five Elements cultivator like him. But for some reason, this drop of cyan-colored essence that contained the bloodline of the Great Emperor transformed into a bloody tidal wave in his body, evolving into the Blood God Emperor, which fought fiercely with another Great Emperor within his body...

  As for this, Huo Ran also didn't know whether he should be happy or sad.

  Just as the two suspected Emperor's artifact replicas were about to launch their final campaign, a miracle occurred. The cyan stone strip that had been floating in the air suddenly released a dazzling and eye-catching cyan light, instantly covering up the glory of the two strongest auras.

  At this moment, the Blood God Emperor and another Green Robed Emperor suddenly opened their eyes, four beams of light shot out with a piercing momentum, directly shooting towards the cyan stone strip in the Sea of Qi.

  The Great Emperor is the ruler of one side of the Heavenly Way. Even if the combat power of the two Great Emperors has been weakened countless times, the majesty of the Heavenly Way inherent in them is not something that ordinary people or ordinary weapons can withstand. Under normal circumstances, when facing the true might of a Great Emperor, whether it's a person or an object, as long as they haven't reached the realm of a Great Emperor, they will tremble with fear due to the pressure of that Heavenly Way and won't dare to move.

  Confronting the gaze of two great emperors that can pierce through heaven and earth, the cyan stone strip seemed to be unaware, and the cyan light was even more intense. It was as if an ancient divine being had come back to life, its body shrouded in mist, suddenly appearing between the blood-colored sphere and the yin-yang diagram with a "whoosh" sound, causing both of them to be unable to take half a step beyond the Thunder Pond.

  Seeing the cyan stone strip stopping their two-man expedition, the Blood God Emperor and the Cyan Robe Emperor stared blankly at the cyan stone strip, both unmoving. After a moment, the two seemed to have come to their senses, exchanged a glance, and then transformed into their true forms. The surging blood waves rolled back to the ocean of energy, while the cyan-colored pure blood also followed the blood waves to the location of the ocean of energy. After hovering above the ocean of energy for a moment, it suddenly fell into the rolling blood waves.

  Blue blood mixed with bloody waves, the two sides separated and merged, for a moment suddenly blue and red, and then merged into purple. The green stone strip saw that the two had never been able to merge and communicate thoroughly, and finally became one body. With a "hum" sound, the blue wave surged out, covering the entire body of Huo Ran.

  With the help of Qingbo, the blue-colored essence seemed to have become a drop of ordinary blood, rapidly spreading out in the sea of blood. In the blink of an eye, the crimson Qi Sea had completely transformed into a purple sea, with waves crashing and surging forth, as if facing a real ocean.

  At the same time, Hao Ran felt a strange and wonderful power surging through his body. Whether it was his fractured bones or severely damaged flesh, they began to miraculously reorganize and repair themselves! After an unknown period of time, Hao Ran's entire body inside and out was completely renewed. The previously thread-like meridians were expanded to the width of a finger, while the blood flowing through his veins was like a mighty river rushing forth with a thunderous roar, his vital energy stronger than ever!

  When the thorough transformation of his physical body was complete, the cyan stone strip trembled slightly, as if narrating something. After that, the light converged inward and blinked into existence above the sea of air transformed from a bloody sea to a purple sea. With a 'plop', it sank into the purple sea and turned back into an ordinary stone strip that couldn't be any more ordinary.

  At this moment, Huo suddenly opened his eyes, and there was a purple light flashing in his pupils, which disappeared instantly.

  He felt as if he had infinite power within him, and suddenly, without thinking, he lightly clenched his right fist. Unintentionally, this clench was not loose at all, and it actually produced several explosive sounds of air bursting apart! If one looked carefully, they could even see the space around his fist being distorted!

  "So strong..."

  Six Paths Realm! At this time, Huo Ran's physical body had undergone a transformation due to the effects of the Qing Shi Tiao and the Qing-colored essence blood. Not only did his physique change from average to extraordinary, but his cultivation also advanced from the Five Elements Realm to the Six Paths Realm! Most importantly, he discovered that his current body could no longer be simply described as "unordinary bloodline", but was instead incredibly robust, capable of withstanding attacks from even higher-level cultivators in the Six Paths Realm or above.

  And all of this comes from that mysterious bluestone strip.

  "Blood God Emperor... Green Robe Emperor... Green Stone Strip... Purple Qi Sea..." He muttered to himself, gazing at the purple qi sea. Previously, due to his impatience and greed, he had swallowed the green essence blood, but didn't think that the green essence blood was actually the bloodline of a great emperor, with divine powers beyond limits. How could it be refined by him, a mere five-element realm cultivator?

  Later on, the Blood God Meridian he cultivated even manifested the shadow of the Blood God Emperor, competing with the shadow of the Great Emperor contained in the cyan-colored pure blood. The two Emperors were both invincible in their generation, although they were separated by an unknown number of years, yet they performed another way in Horan's body.

  The aftermath was that the battlefield of Horan was tortured until the whole person was numb. Fortunately, the green stone strip picked up in the cave inside Zhufeng finally burst out with divine power, stopping the struggle between the two emperors and even merging them into one...

  All of this has gone beyond Horan's understanding. Firstly, he didn't know that he was only cultivating the Blood God Tendon, so why would the blood-colored divine power in his dantian transform into a virtual image of the Blood God Emperor? Whose divine power does the green-colored pure blood belong to? How did Muhuo come to possess the emperor's blood? Finally, what exactly is the Qing Stone Strip, which dares to defy the emperor's might, repeatedly bursting out with divine energy to save itself in times of danger, and now successfully stopping the conflict between two emperors, allowing his body to undergo a transformation...

  Everything is too mysterious and baseless, without cause or effect. Suddenly it's unclear, at least for now it's impossible to understand.

  "Li Ran, Li Ran!"

  Just as Huo Ran's mind was racing with thoughts, the sound of the river flowing from outside the cave came in.
