Eternal Emperor's Path to Ascension
Chapter 288 288: Fulfilled Purpose, Demon God's Revival

"What the hell do you mean!? His soul will get obliterated!"

Kong Junyu stood up, ignoring the blood continously seeping out of his arm as he shouted, amplifying his voice with Spiritual Energy.

Hearing his words, all the high ranking members of the demonic forces had indifferent expressions on their faces.

The Half Immortal who just slapped him away scoffed as he raised his hand.

The next second, Kong Junyu's neck was already tightly grasped by the Half Immortal.

"Don't think you're special just because you're a little talented. You don't know how many talents were buried before they even got a chance to shine because they offended someone they shouldn't have. I'm sure many old monsters here, even those hypocrites from the righteous path, will be eager to possess the body of a prodigy or refine him into either a handy Dharma Artifact or a pill."

The Half Immortal tightened his grip, causing veins to bulge on Kong Junyu's neck as he struggled to break free.

But how could a mere Nascent Soul cultivator escape the grasp of a Half Immortal, even as a Chosen One?

The difference in realm was too large to cross.

Just then, Ye Ling's painful cry came over again, filled with indignation and rage as the terrifying Demonic Energy began to tear his very soul apart.

In his desperation, he couldn't help but shot out loud.

"System! Where are you!? Don't leave me hanging here! System? System!"

However, no response came for a long time. Countless people on the side thought that he had gone insane from his soul being shredded apart.

However, a few suddenly had unsightly expressions on their face.

They were precisely Yao Qiuyue, Tian Chen, and Zhu Dong.

Aside from them, there were also a few people on both sides who's eyes slightly condensed after hearing Ye Ling's words.

Tian Chen was in slight disbelief as he suddenly called out in his mind.

"System? There exists other systems out there?"

The system spirit didn't reply to him for a few moments before answering.

[...Indeed. In reality, there exists many kinda if extraordinary abilities, such as those who are born with strong luck, able to turn disaster into opportunity, those who come from past timelines, otherwise known as 'regressors', those who have reincarnated, the so-called 'reincarnators', those who come from other worlds, the 'transmigrators', all kinds of beings exist in the Great World.]

The system spirit paused for a moment before continuing.

[This includes even the 'System Wielders'. However, those opportunities aren't made out of thin air. Some powerful beings in the Upper Realm sometimes get bored and bestow such opportunities upon some individual whom they see potential in or someone who has no potential at all sometimes just for the fun of it all. Either that, or these people are blessed by Providence, some Great Dao, or the Heavenly Dao itself. Some create opportunities for their own selves in case they get into misfortune, while some leave inheritances behind for future successors, hoping the fated person can revive them.]

"So it's all about benefits in the end..."

However, Tian Chen became somewhat more vigilant towards this so-called Harem Divine System since then.

Yao Qiuyue was also constantly thinking in her mind.

So, there are many such 'Children of Destiny' in this world...

All the others who were slightly stunned were also constantly thinking about Ye Ling's words and their implications.

These people were all Chosen Ones, without a doubt.

Zhu Dong narrowed his eyes, seemingly remembering something before his expression turned vigilant.

At that moment, Ye Ling, no, his soul, who was shouting frantically finally changed his expression.

However, the next second, it seemed as if he had lost all hope. The others didn't get it, but the Chosen Ones felt that Ye Ling's system gave him a not so good reply.

[Host, why are you shouting? Don't you see that your goal is being achieved? You're transforming into the Heavenly Devil, and you will soon reach the pinnacle of this world. The system's goal has already been fulfilled. Unbinding process initializing...]

"H-hey... You're kidding, right? You... YOU CANT JUST LEAVE ME LIKE THIS! I... I'm supposed to rise to the top and become a supreme expert... YOU BASTARD! YOU LIED, YOU ALL LIED TO ME! ALL THIS WAS FOR THE REVIVAL OF THAT GOD DAMMED DEMON GOD, WASN'T IT, YOU BASTARDS!? I CURSE YOUR NINE GENERATIONS, YOU ALL WILL DIE THE MOST GRUESOME DEATHS–AAHHHHHGGHHHH!!!"

In the midst of his frantic screaming, Ye Ling's soul was directly ripped apart, shredded into nothingness as Kong Junyu watched in horror.

His face showed undisguised rage and sorrow, but he hasn't lost his sanity yet.

Seeing the Half Immortal momentarily distracted, he instantly crushed a talisman always hidden with an invisibility spell on his wrist and disappeared into thin air.

All the Half Immortals' face turned unsightly upon seeing this.

All of them spread out their Divine Sense but found no traces of Kong Junyu whatsoever.

"How could a mere Nascent Soul have such a high level talisman of void traversal?"

Someone couldn't help but place their debts before the others.

The Half Immortal who had just grabbed Kong Junyu looked at his hand coldly.

"That child has external assistance. I was never distracted in the first place, yet it was as if my reaction speed intentionally slowed down the moment he tried to activate that talisman."

He then shook his head and turned towards the now soulless body of Ye Ling before glancing disdainfully towards the righteous path experts.

Tian Yun's expression changed. In fact, he and the other experts of the righteous path had been looking for a way to destroy Ye Ling's body but had no way to do so.

The place where the ritual took place was an extremely high level formation, something that shouldn't exist in the Lower Realm.

Tian Yun just gave the limping Hong Xuanchen a cold look before he spread out his Divine Sense again, while the other party just had a disdainful expression on his face.

Forcing their way into this formation was a no go. It could definitely withstand it even if they all combined their attacks together.

At this moment, as if sensing something, Tian Yun suddenly shouted in a low voice.

The Demonic Energy and light from the spacetime crack grew brighter and brighter, as if something terrible was about to come out of it.

"Not good, everyone, attack together!"

Immediately, he raised his hand as a Sword Dharma Artifact appeared in it, brimming with celestial starlight as he imbued it with all his remaining Spiritual Energy and Sword Intent.

The other experts on the side of the righteous path didn't hesitate at all, each of them taking out their strongest Dharma Treasure as they attacked the formation at the same time.

"Idiots, what are you standing here for!? Stop them!"

Hong Xuanchen scolded his subordinates harshly, ordering them to get away from him and stop the other party.

The demonic forces also took action, using their best skills to block the coming onslaught head on.

*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*

Instantly, the Isle of Heavenly Demons and the Altar of the Demon God was bombarded by many Divine Powers and mystical skills, transforming the huge island into a barren wasteland.

Nearly all the demonic cultivators and Demons below the Tribulation Transcendence Realm were instantly killed in the bombardment, while those on the side of the righteous path were protected by the higher level powerhouses.

As the dust slowly settled down, the formation shimmered with cold light, completely intact even after the bombardment of several Perfected Half Immortals.

The righteous path experts' expressions changed drastically upon seeing this.

"This is... An Immortal level Array Formation!"

Someone suddenly said, confirming everyone's thoughts.

Tian Yun's expression turned unsightly as he gazed at the spacetime crack above.

He secretly crushed a jade slip in his hand, his other hand gripping the sword tightly.

At that moment, the spacetime crack suddenly began to expand, almost forcefully.

Two giant hands reached out from it, grasping the spacetime crack physically as they tore it apart, causing the heavenly rules of the Mortal World to slowly crumble apart.

A sense of dread arose in the hearts of everyone, even the demonic cultivators and Demons present.

Heaven and earth seemed to be roaring at this moment, and thunder rolled furiously across the darkened skies.

Negative karma filled the air as a giant shadow suddenly flashed past the spatial crack now torn apart, the Mortal World now vulnerable to the spatial storms and turbulences of the crack.

Before anyone could even react, the black shadow rushed into Ye Ling's hollow body.

A terrifying suction force emerged from his body, causing the surrounding Spirit Qi to surge towards him as he absorbed it frantically.

Now, Ye Ling's body exceeded a pressure far beyond the mere Nascent Soul Realm, and it was continously rising even at this moment.

Third Stage Nascent Soul, Seventh Stage Nascent Soul, First Stage Tribulation Transcendence, Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcendence, Mid Stage Immortal Ascension, Late Stage Half Immortal...

As the aura continued to increase, the immense Spirit Qi caused Ye Ling's body yo mutate in unspeakable ways.

The demonic forces were already within the formation, so those on the side of the righteous path couldn't do anything to them, and they all had ugly expressions on their face.

And in just a few hours, Ye Ling, or now, the Archaic Forbidden Demon God, finally reached the pinnacle of Half Immortal Realm before entering a higher realm like opening a water bottle.
