Chapter 1671: Second Final Chapter New Book Coming May 1

"Kill!"

Chu Feng was enveloped in runes, which propelled him with immense power. Wielding a war spear, he charged into the midst of the Ancestors. At that instant, his blood splattered, and half of his body disintegrated, yet he still impaled one Ancestor with his long spear, pinning him in mid-air. He continuously vibrated, activating the domain runes to completely annihilate his opponent.

However, the six Great Ancestors were present, all attacking without reservation. Various sacrificial lights bombarded Chu Feng, staining the plateau with his blood.

This was an exceptionally brutal battle. After Chu Feng shattered the Ancestor impaled on his spear, he himself was obliterated by the other five Ancestors, reappearing in another location.

His body had become ethereal, not because he lacked strength, but because his enemies were too powerful and too numerous.

"All heavens resonate, the firmament descends, the underworld vibrates, the sacrificial sea pours forth, kill all abnormalities!" Chu Feng roared, his body ablaze with runes. He activated the nine great banners, long since shattered in the distance, using their inscribed patterns to draw boundless domain runes down from the sky.

The heavens glowed, unleashing their final power. The firmament trembled, and an endless torrent of energy surged forth. The ancient cycle of reincarnation in the underworld roared, and dense domain symbols resonated with it. Most astonishing of all was the sacrificial sea, a blood-colored ocean whose waves were fragmented remnants of perished great worlds. It completely poured down, transforming into a deluge of worlds that crashed towards the edge of the plateau.

Boom! The immense power shattered the plateau. The blood-colored sacrificial sea, in particular, engulfed the edge of the ominous land, covering and sweeping away several Ancestors.

"Weave the heavens, span the earth, end all enemies of past and present!" Chu Feng seized this opportunity to locate and lock onto an Ancestor. Innumerable meridian lines intertwined and spread out, appearing everywhere from ancient times to the present.

The trapped Ancestor struggled, but he was bound by the brilliant patterns, tightened, and continuously ground down. His essence dissipated, his soul withered, and he could not escape. Finally, with a pop, he was completely annihilated, and the plateau could not revive him.

Chu Feng's figure became increasingly ethereal. He charged with his spear towards the edge of the plateau, which was being impacted by the blood-colored sacrificial sea and the sky-filled domain runes.

He summoned the Time Furnace and collected some primordial matter from the coffins underground.

He prepared for death, intending to bathe in the matter of the ominous source, abandon his true self, and strike down his enemies at the last moment before falling into oblivion, once his essence was depleted and he lost the power to fight.

"Kill!" The five surviving Great Ancestors joined forces, breaking through the domain runes and emerging. Their fury surged; they had never imagined this latecomer would be so formidable. He had actually arranged the heavens, the sacrificial sea, the firmament, and the underworld into domains, colliding with and truly shaking and piercing the plateau, using the opportunity to kill two Great Ancestors.

To them, such a loss and pain were unbearable. After a long period, they had once again experienced such a calamity.

Boom! Chu Feng's body shattered. Fighting five enraged Ancestors alone, he was ultimately unable to resist, and blood and bone flew everywhere.

The moment his body reappeared, he grabbed his war spear and charged forward once more. His conviction unwavering, he fought with all his might to kill the enemy, solely to alleviate the pressure on those who would come after him.

Crack! The war spear in his hand broke, and all the weapons he had refined were destroyed, scattering across the ground.

His fists glowed, and meridian patterns flickered as he obliterated an Ancestor, but his own body was also shattered by the others.

Rumble! At this moment, the blood-colored sacrificial sea suddenly flowed backward, all domain patterns were reorganized, and then dissipated.

The plateau roared, continuously shaking. Dense cracks healed, and the entire plateau became even grander as it reorganized and rapidly became whole again.

At this point, the five Great Ancestors were startled. They retreated, observing the plateau that was undergoing strange changes.

Chu Feng's heart sank completely. The boundless domain runes he had drawn from the firmament and the underworld had all dissipated, and even the sacrificial sea had flowed back.

The plateau was calm, without any further changes, remaining as it was before, as if nothing had happened.

All cracks and pierced areas on the plateau were restored to their original state.

Chu Feng fell silent. He yearned to eradicate all enemies, but facing the five Great Ancestors, human strength had its limits. Entering the ominous land alone was simply too difficult.

He felt that the entire plateau was filled with a terrifying and soul-stirring aura. Even if future generations arrived here, the pressure would be boundless.

At the last moment, he no longer hesitated. He wanted to try and see if he could take down all five Great Ancestors alone, committing himself to a do-or-die effort.

From the Time Furnace, primordial matter poured out, falling onto Chu Feng. In an instant, he felt his soul tearing, an immeasurable agony.

Simultaneously, his flesh and blood mutated, his essence transformed, and his soul truly began to cleave apart, undergoing a bizarre metamorphosis.

His true spirit would perish, and from then on, he would no longer be himself.

The Ancestors' pupils constricted. They had never imagined that this resolute and fierce latecomer would take such a step, actively exposing himself to primordial matter, sacrificing himself to the ominous!

Then, they smiled, staring at Chu Feng. If he could transform and ascend to a higher realm, they would also see the path he would take.

Moreover, no one was an exception; those eroded by primordial matter would all become anomalous, becoming their kin, fellow travelers on the same path.

Boom! Flames erupted from the runes on the Time Furnace, sweeping over Chu Feng's soul, helping him resist the final cleaving and prolonging the time before his demise.

His body was transforming, becoming terrifyingly powerful. The ominous power expanded and surged within him.

"I will not fall!" Chu Feng exerted all his strength, resonating with the runes beyond this world. The patterns etched throughout all realms lit up, illuminating his figure, and a clear, grand voice echoed.

"Should there be those who come after..." These were the words of the revered predecessors, the words that resonated throughout the realms when Emperor Huangtian and Emperor Yetian had fallen in battle.

Chu Feng recorded and inscribed these words in the form of domain runes, replaying the voice to remind his true self, trapped in the ominous land, not to lose awareness or succumb.

"Should there be those who come after, witness what I have heard and seen. Our final experiences hang upon all things in the universe, carved among mountains, rivers, and stars, lingering over endless ruins. Chapters exist everywhere, eternally enduring, just as you perceive."

Chu Feng's path was to explore from within all things.

"All realms, revered predecessors, be with me!" Chu Feng roared. He maintained his last shred of consciousness amidst the bizarre transformation, preparing to attack the five Great Ancestors.

No one had ever maintained a shred of consciousness after being fully eroded by primordial matter. This shocked the five Great Ancestors and sent shivers down their spines. They decisively retreated, intending to wait for his complete anomalous transformation.

Chu Feng painstakingly made his move. If he delayed any longer, he feared he would lose the light in his heart and completely fall into darkness, no longer being himself, and losing any chance to act.

Boom! Suddenly, the plateau violently shook and roared. Terrifying anomalous light erupted, engulfing Chu Feng. He was unable to attack; the primordial matter boiling within him had temporarily stilled, becoming unusable.

A wisp of ethereal mist swirled, causing Chu Feng's efforts to fail at the last moment.

In a daze, the Ancestors felt as if they had experienced a nightmare. They had a premonition that if Chu Feng had been allowed to attack, some of them might have died!

It seemed that the course of history had just changed.

"It's somewhat similar to when we awoke from a dream back then," an Ancestor remarked, his eyes flickering as he looked towards the edge of the plateau, where ethereal mist lingered.

"Do you truly believe you woke yourselves from a dream? It was I, using that person's past power, who changed everything," a voice echoed from the edge of the plateau.

This ancestral land, this grand plateau, had its own consciousness?! The five surviving Great Ancestors were stunned; they had never discovered this in all these years!

"The primordial matter is bone ash, belonging to a being who once resided and died on this plateau. His power scattered here, forming the plateau, which can continuously revive those connected to him. You absorbed its primordial matter, were recognized as part of the plateau's power, and thus can be continuously revived."

As the ethereal mist drifted, the entire plateau genuinely seemed to possess a nascent consciousness—not yet a complete consciousness, but capable of expressing its intent.

Bang! Chu Feng exerted all his might. Runes continuously exploded around him, and he finally managed to move.

At the same time, his body burned fiercely. He struggled to shed the primordial matter, expelling it completely while it was momentarily stilled, with all the light from the Time Furnace entering his body.

Because the plateau's true consciousness had awakened, he could no longer use this anomalous power. His intention to use himself as sustenance for the ominous to suppress evil was thwarted, as the grand consciousness saw through everything.

Moreover, he was out of time. The self-destruct patterns etched into his essence glowed and continuously erupted; his life was about to end.

Boom! Chu Feng unleashed the Time Furnace from his body and summoned the coarse stone grinding disc, launching it towards the plateau.

Simultaneously, as his body disintegrated and his essence burned and blossomed, he roared: "Weave the heavens, span the earth, end past, present, future..."

The patterns were dense, meridian lines intertwined, piercing through all space-time, ubiquitous. They illuminated the human realm brightly and filled all worlds with light, sweeping away ethereal mist and darkness. However, he ultimately failed to utter the very last word.

Chu Feng's strongest attack swept out, piercing all five Great Ancestors on the plateau, who then shattered, their blood and bone scattering everywhere.

Unfortunately, Chu Feng's essence was depleted. He could not fight five Great Ancestors alone, nor could he even focus solely on one, because at that moment, the ethereal mist swept in, dispersing the meridian lines across all five of them.

Although the five Great Ancestors had shattered, they rapidly reappeared, reassembled, and stood upon the plateau.

Chu Feng himself exploded. The self-destructive domain within his essence fully erupted, transforming him into light and sending him away.

In the chaos, Lin Nuoyi and Yao Yao felt immense pain in their hearts. Although they had not witnessed it, they realized what had happened, experiencing an endless sense of grief and desolation.

The plateau vibrated, and the ethereal mist rippled as if about to act. Then, the coarse stone grinding disc on the ground suddenly burst forth. It was Chu Feng's last remaining domain runes, activated within it, that briefly halted the ethereal mist, allowing Chu Feng to calmly fade away.

The ground was strewn with ruin: a shattered grinding disc, a broken Skyblade, a splintered war spear, and pulverized banners. The scene was ravaged; the final battle had ended.

Chu Feng had exhausted all his strength, aiming to forge a path for future generations. However, everything was unpredictable; the entire plateau had gained its own consciousness. He had done his best, dying in the ominous land.

The heavens trembled. In the twilight glow, under the blood-red setting sun, mountains and rivers resonated, and all things echoed. The domain Chu Feng left behind was dissipating, and his blurry figures were everywhere, streaking across the sky, reflected among the rivers and mountains of all realms. Finally, those hazy figures also disintegrated.

In a daze, people vaguely heard his final, broken voice: "Weave the heavens, span the earth, end... open for my descendants..."

People did not know his name or his past, only that such a person had once charged alone into the ominous land, ending in a tragic and heroic curtain call!

Soon, however, memories of these events and of this person began to rapidly fade from people's minds. All traces of him blurred; he was gone, completely vanishing and being erased from the human world, from space-time, and from all ancient history.

At this moment, all living beings across the world felt an emptiness in their hearts, as if something had been lost, a strange sadness. But in an instant, all these feelings also vanished, leaving nothing behind.

There was no longer a Chu Feng in the world; no one remembered him!

***

...The night wind was strong, kicking up the dust of the mortal world, and the sky was filled with falling yellow leaves, adding to the desolate and bleak atmosphere. All realms grew dim.

***

...Had he died? Chu Feng was bewildered. He didn't know how much time had passed, but light flickered in the darkness, and a voice echoed. Where was this place? He couldn't feel the passage of time; it was void and cold, as if all worlds had reached their end and returned to their primordial state.

In an instant, Chu Feng's bewildered mind cleared somewhat because he saw two spheres of light. Within them were figures, nurturing powerful vitality amidst the stillness of death.

"He can be free, he can be eternal. One day, I will return... How can I watch the human world wither?" A clear voice emerged from one of the spheres of light.

Then, Chu Feng saw a figure, and it was... Huang! He broke free from the sphere of light.

"As the Heavenly Emperor, I shall suppress all enemies. With all realms dim and anomalies unsettled, how can my body perish..." Another figure appeared; it was Emperor Ye Tian, also stepping out from a sphere of light.

Next, Chu Feng saw himself, also within a sphere of light, radiating powerful vitality. Had he not died?

No, he had indeed fallen in battle. In a flash, Chu Feng understood: he was now in a realm beyond the Sacrificial Dao! This realm was exceptionally unique.

Here, there was no concept of time. Those who stepped in from eons past, those from the present, and those from the future all seemed visible, all seemed to exist in this moment.

Chu Feng had not died. Above the Sacrificial Dao, what truly needed to be sacrificed was not just the Dao, but also the evolutionary path and oneself. Everything became void, everything returned to eternal stillness, and then resurrected from that stillness, awaiting rebirth, truly transcending all.

Of course, this was incredibly difficult. Ancestors and the like could not succeed because, in addition to being powerful enough, they also needed the corresponding state of mind.

Before falling into stillness, if one hesitated, lacking the heroic spirit of "though thousands stand against me, I go," the courage to abandon everything, and the unwavering conviction that swallows eons and foreverdures in the heart—missing even one of these, no matter what one sacrificed, it would only lead to a dead end.

Emperor Huangtian and Emperor Yetian had both died heroically in battle in their time. In that campaign, they charged forward relentlessly, and even before their stillness, their spirit was mighty enough to awe mountains and rivers.

As for Chu Feng, he had charged alone into the ominous land, willing to sacrifice himself to pave a way for future generations. He possessed all these conditions, lacking none, and thus, he too ascended above the Sacrificial Dao.

Even if Sacrificial Dao practitioners wished to ascend to this realm, they could not simply step into it at will. Throughout history, none had been seen to achieve it.

Here, the future was visible, the past observable. It seemed only the three of them stood in this elevated place. Upon closer inspection, there was also a sphere of light at the edge, but it was very dim, existing in eternal stillness.

That was the Empress. Her only shortcoming was that she had only just entered the Sacrificial Dao realm back then, and her accumulation was not deep enough.

Clearly, if she were to be manifested and revived in the current world, she would one day step into this realm, having already undergone an indelible experience.

In this unique place, all Great Daos were like flowing water, capable of being evaporated with a single thought.

Fate, creation, karma, heavenly laws, and the like were merely the weakest of illusions, shattering before one could even reach out and touch them.

Here, there was no sense of time or space, transcending what was known as eternity, Dao, the great thousand worlds, all space-time, beyond the cosmos, beyond chaos, omnipresent. From ancient times to the present, and even to the future, everything could dissipate in an instant at the thought of a being standing in this realm. Where their gaze fell, all withered, and all reappeared.

No matter how countless ages passed, here it seemed but an instant, a single point without the concept of space-time. Huang, Ye, and Chu Feng rose, ready to return to the current world.

They had once died in battle, transformed after reaching their limits, resurrected in this unimaginable place, and taken the ultimate step that all Sacrificial Dao practitioners only dreamed of.

"Rise from desolation!" The three spoke simultaneously, taking a single step and appearing above the plateau.

"Resurrect from stillness!" The three reappeared in the world, their voices shaking ancient and modern times, reaching into the future, tearing apart the entire plateau.

Boom! The plateau roared, and ethereal mist permeated the air, sweeping towards the three. Clearly, this plateau possessed a quality beyond the Sacrificial Dao. Although its consciousness was nascent and did not fully understand how to utilize this immense power, it was now surging and utterly terrifying.

In an instant, the three figures standing in the air, with a mere glance, directly dispersed the vast, approaching ethereal mist.

However, the consciousness within the plateau did not yield. It understood its shortcomings: though it contained boundless power, its combat methods and strategies were severely lacking, for it was merely a vessel.

Instantly, five Ancestors surged skyward, followed by ancient coffins erupting from deep underground, revealing decayed corpses.

To many, the plateau was omnipotent. The number of Ancestors it had created already far exceeded ten, and it immediately infused them with the immense power that should have remained dormant beneath the plateau.

Rumble! Those terrifying figures charged forward, but alas, it was all futile and useless.

Above Huang's head, a thunder pool appeared, and the desolate sword on his back regenerated. Above Ye's head, the Myriad Things Mother Qi Cauldron floated, while the Vajra Bracelet on Chu Feng's wrist hummed softly, and the Skyblade in his hand reflected past, present, and future.

The three did not move. With the faint hum of their weapons, all the terrifying figures that charged at them disintegrated and dissolved. Even on the plateau itself, there was no possibility of their regeneration.

The three descended onto the plateau. The moment their feet touched it, the entire plateau disintegrated and collapsed, the ethereal mist dispersed, and the last vestiges of primordial matter floated up, only to be enveloped, submerged, continuously refined, and completely incinerated by the light emanating from their bodies.

Emperor Huangtian, Emperor Yetian, and Chu Feng looked back. In an instant, all those whose traces had been erased from ancient history reappeared. The revered predecessors and heroic spirits who had perished in battles of old returned to the human world. A glorious grand era manifested, shining with dazzling brilliance!

Finally... it has ended again. However, there will be some additions to the ending, involving the stone jar, the stone zither, that person, and more, which will be included in the revised extra chapters. At the same time, I am considering whether to fulfill your wish for Emperor Huangtian, Emperor Yetian, and Chu Feng to have a great battle... The extra chapters will still be available for free on Qidian. It's late; I'll write more after I wake up. As for the new book, see you on May 1st! Time is short, and I will prepare very seriously to write a super exciting new book for everyone.
