All People: I Slay Gods with Martial Arts

176: Chapter 175 The Deterrent Power of Netherworld Aura”Sever the past to end Karma; sever the future to cut off the path ahead.”

Nether also looked toward the depths of the Chaos, a trace of respect flashing in his brilliant eyes.

Then, he continued, ”No past, no future, practicing only for the present life. This woman’s future is limitless. If she finds the right Opportunity, she might truly be able to pave a smooth path for future generations.”

”You mean Xing Mu is attempting to advance to the [Taboo Emperor] realm?”

Ye Xiu was stunned.

On second thought, it made sense.

The Eastern Emperor called Xing Mu ’Venerable Mu.’ Although she hadn’t officially attained a Venerable position, her combat power must be on par with one; otherwise, the Eastern Emperor wouldn’t address her as Venerable Mu.

Moreover...

If Xing Mu achieved Three Souls into One, given her original Venerable-level combat power and her control over the Main World...

That kind of strength.

Even if she didn’t break into the [Taboo Emperor] realm, she would at least reach the [Ancient Realm]. balance

”Little friend, Three Souls into One isn’t about completely becoming a single Primordial Spirit, but rather letting the three Primordial Spirits become a new one. However...”

”However what?”

”The risk of failure is very high. Anyone qualified to perform Three Souls into One is a unique genius of the ages. The past and future selves of such figures are incomparably powerful. Merging them is extremely difficult.”

”Then... what happens if it fails?”

”Merging the power is simple, but the Primordial Spirit will likely form three different personality consciousnesses. Unless the past and future selves merge voluntarily, then everything will go smoothly.”

”If everything goes smoothly, will only the present self remain?”

”I don’t know, but it should be. After all, the past no longer exists, the future is illusory, and only the present is real.”

Hearing this.

Ye Xiu looked toward the two women, a complex expression in his eyes.

Three Souls into One.

The best outcome would be to achieve the present self.

But would the past and future selves truly be willing to fade away?

If they were unwilling and forced to fuse, a new Primordial Spirit would be created—but who would that new Primordial Spirit be?

Besides that.

If the three souls did not harmonize and the Fusion failed.

The three Primordial Spirits would turn into three different personality consciousnesses, making the person suffer from split personalities.

”Should I stop it?”

He wanted to break through the Main World and head into the depths of the Chaos to stop all of this.

But even if he stopped it, Ji Xingyue, as the future self, likely couldn’t exist for long.

Sigh...

Looking into the depths of the Chaos.

Ye Xiu let out a long sigh.

He turned his head toward the River of Time; within that long river, countless world-shaking waves had already been stirred up.

Clearly, someone had made a move.

”Can’t even the Human Emperor hold down the fort?”

At this critical juncture, if someone invaded the Main World, it would likely trigger even more uncontrollable changes.

Regardless of the situation in the river.

The Main World was indeed under Ji Xingyue’s control. If a powerful expert attacked, she would certainly be affected, causing the battle in the depths of the Chaos to take an extremely unfavorable turn.

Thinking of this.

Ye Xiu spoke to Nether, ”Senior, can you guard the outside of the River of Time and make those factions who want to enter back off?”

”That’s no problem. I haven’t fought in a long time, so I’d like to see what level the newcomers have reached.”

Nether chuckled.

In an instant, he appeared beside the River of Time.

A terrifying aura radiated from him, breaking through the barriers of the world and directly entering the River of Time.

Boom...

The originally turbulent waters showed signs of overturning under Nether’s aura.

In the river.

The several people who were in the midst of a fierce battle immediately stopped their respective techniques the moment the aura appeared.

”Brother Human Emperor, is this also an ally of yours?”

Martial Venerable’s eyelids twitched as he looked at the old man guarding the river outside the Main World.

Too strong.

It felt like he had surpassed the limits of what the [Venerable Realm] could achieve.

The Human Emperor coughed lightly, ”Yes. Many people are slumbering in the Main World. This one is a good personal friend of mine; he was forced to awaken to stabilize the Main World.”

”That damn Eastern Emperor actually fought his way into the Main World.”

”Hehe... Now that this Senior has awakened, the Main World shouldn’t Face any major changes. Brother Martial, as long as we intercept these few Immortal Venerables, our side’s Face will be preserved.”

The Human Emperor continued to bluff.

If Martial Venerable hadn’t been there, he alone truly couldn’t have blocked three Immortal Venerables.

If the three Immortal Venerables appeared in the Main World, that dog Eastern Emperor would likely be beaten to death.

If the Eastern Emperor died.

The Boundary Sea would surely fall into Chaos.

At the source of the river.

The three Immortal Venerables also saw the Main World downstream of the river. Nether’s aura made them all frown.

”Changsheng, you saw Gu back then. Is that one below him?”

”It’s not Gu. Gu has already disappeared into the Boundary Sea. I haven’t seen that old man before.” Immortal Venerable Changsheng was surrounded by immortal light, making it impossible to see his specific form or appearance.

”A frontal assault probably won’t work. The Eastern Emperor was heavily injured back then; if we miss this chance, it will be hard to find another such Opportunity.”

”Indeed. Those few aren’t making a move because they want to use the strength of the three of us to peer into the situation of the Main World. Now it seems their calculations have failed.”

”Martial Venerable is too foolish. He was swayed by the Human Emperor; otherwise, we would have already entered the Main World.”

The three Immortal Venerables looked at Martial Venerable.

Their eyes were like they were looking at an idiot.

”Brother Martial, they seem to look down on you.” The Human Emperor smiled warmly, looking like a spectator who didn’t mind things getting more chaotic.

”Damned things.”

The river vibrated.

Martial Venerable stopped guarding the source of the river and directly attacked, charging toward the three Immortal Venerables.

”Such a brute. Following the Human Emperor, he’ll be sold out sooner or later.”

The three Immortal Venerables didn’t continue the fight. Before Martial Venerable could reach them, they had already vanished into the Boundary Sea one after another.

...

...

Main World.

Since Nether took his post at the River of Time area, the disturbances in the river gradually faded until they disappeared.

Clearly.

This existence beyond the [Venerable Realm] made certain people wary.

Stepping out.

Ye Xiu arrived in the depths of the Chaos.

The battle here was so intense it made one’s heart tremble. Even though he had reached the Immortal Lord realm, he was shocked by the powerful combat scenes.

”Is this a battle of the Venerable Realm?”

Amidst his sigh.

Ye Xiu didn’t get too close to the two women’s combat area.

In this battle, there was no so-called absolute victory.

Even if Ji Xingyue won.

She couldn’t become the primary consciousness. The best result would be turning into a personality to jointly control the body.

After all, as the future self.

She was at an inherent disadvantage and could not exist in the current era for long.

”General, return to Yanjing. Great Xia needs a powerhouse to sit in command now.”

Ji Xingyue’s instructions reached his ears.

Ye Xiu looked at the flickering figure and remained silent for a long while before turning back to the Main World.

In the Royal Palace.

”Revered Master, you’re back.”

Chu Meng was somewhat anxious. The little girl from back then had already grown into a young woman.

Her strength had also reached the Saint Realm.

”No need to rush. Tell the councilors of the Nine Cities that the world is undergoing great changes, but maintain order as usual. I am here for everything, so there’s no need to worry too much.”

Ye Xiu slowly walked up to the throne.

Looking at the mountain of documents on the desk, he couldn’t help but sigh again.

For the sake of Great Xia, Ji Xingyue had truly exhausted all her heart and soul.

Seeing Chu Meng about to leave.

He suddenly called out to her and ordered, ”All matters originally handled by the Princess Consort are to be handed over to the Speaker of the Cabinet. If there are any questions, have them come see me directly.”

”Mistress... what happened to her...”

Chu Meng had been raised by Ji Xingyue. Upon hearing Ye Xiu’s orders, a trace of worry appeared on her pretty Face.

Ye Xiu didn’t explain anything.

He sat quietly on the throne, waiting for the outcome of the battle between the two women.
