Chapter 427: Chapter 425: The Fall
Sally clasped her ten fingers over her lower abdomen and truly closed her eyes; soon, her breathing became even, and she fell asleep.
You Hao fetched a thin blanket and draped it over her body. Then he gazed at her face for a while before leaving the inner hall.
The whole process was extremely quiet, as if no one had come and gone.
Sun Fuxiang was waiting outside the hall.
You Hao said, “Do not disturb her, and do not allow her to leave. Find her something to do in Yuhua Palace.”
“Yes, this old servant understands,” Sun Fuxiang cheerfully responded.
You Hao looked back at Tianhua Hall one last time and then teleported away.
Sally had not actually fallen asleep.
It was just that her entire consciousness had entered the System, making her seem as if she were asleep.
[Xiaomei, has the video capture been completed?]
[Yes, Host. Let Xiaomei extract the data first; this can totally be used in Xiaomei’s game.]
[…If I can no longer have children in the future, I’ll have to rely on your game to provide for the family.]
[No problem, Xiaomei will support the Host and the Host’s babies in the future.]
[That’s very reliable.]
In the skies above Divine King City—
Qing Linghuan transformed into a human form, watching the citizens of the new Divine Clan within Divine King City become sacrifices absorbed by the Nine-Turn Star Annihilation Array.
Suddenly, a beam of divine light shot into the sky but was ultimately blocked by the Array.
You Hao stood within the Array and saw Qing Linghuan.
Qing Linghuan also looked at him, slowly gesturing a hand sign that depicted an upper circle and a lower square.
You Hao immediately understood what it meant.
Guan Lan chased after him and, becoming an old man, his eyes clouded with turbidity and greed as he stared at You Hao.
Sensing Qing Linghuan outside the Array, his expression grew solemn again, clearly wary of Qing Linghuan.
At that moment, three more Divine Monarchs arrived.
All newcomers to the Divine Clan who, after hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation, had only reached the Divine Monarch realm, and whose lifespans were not much longer, harbored the thoughts of seizing the Ancient Divine Clan’s longevity.
Seeing the arrival of three Divine Monarchs, Guan Lan clasped his hands in gratitude.
The Nine-Turn Star Annihilation Array suddenly emitted beams of light filled with the power of divine rules, and all members of the Divine Clan who had the mark of sacrifice on them were struck by these beams, turning into a mist of blood absorbed by the Array.

Guan Lan’s aged appearance began to gradually grow younger.
You Hao’s gaze was icy as he spoke sternly, “As a monarch, one should protect one’s subjects and uphold their faith to follow the path of immortality. Instead, you use them as sacrifices, cutting off your own path to life.”
“Faith? Your Ancient Divine Clan has no need for faith, as you coexist with heaven and earth,” replied Guan Lan, with a pair of shadowy figures of a black lion and a red serpent materializing behind him, their sharp teeth and fearsome rule bearing fierceness.
Unmoved, You Hao retorted, “But your new Divine Clan, who has progeny, triumphs over everything.”
“Offspring with mere Spirit Rank or Saint Rank talents, or even Mortal Beasts—what use are they! Moreover, it’s not certain that you can’t reproduce. Didn’t the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox bring back two cubs?”
Indeed, this puzzled all Ancient Divine Clan members.
“Your new Divine Clan’s lineage also includes God Rank offspring. Just a while ago, a Merit Divine Rank descended within the Divine Chaos Tower.”
“What did you say?!” Guan Lan, who had spent nearly ten thousand years in seclusion seeking methods to prolong his life, knew that the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures rumored to increase lifespan were only effective below the God Rank. Upon reaching God Rank, one had to leave it to fate or take over the bodies of the Ancient Divine Clan to break the shackles of longevity.
“I remember you have a biological son, who, being born a Mortal Beast, you discarded to the Lower Realm.”
“Yes, I have a son!” Guan Lan’s heart suddenly surged with excitement!
If only—if his progeny… He could completely seize the lifespan from his descendant.
But at this point, there was no turning back, and he looked up at the Nine-Turn Star Annihilation Array, which had entered the sixth rotation, “Why did you not tell me earlier?”
Their conversation was also heard outside the Array.
Qing Linghuan said to the three new Divine Clan Divine Monarchs, “Coincidentally, I happen to know the true identity of that young one, and indeed it is of your new Divine Clan’s bloodline.”
“What is a Beast Body?” Among them, there were also divine monarchs who had been sent down to the Lower Realm because their progeny’s talents were too low to survive in the Divine Realm, looking excitedly at Qing Linghuan.
Between the Divine Realm and the Lower Realm lies the Heavenly Dao Barrier, which cannot be crossed. Even the guardians of each realm can only descend in the form of divine thoughts when summoned and cannot bring their true selves. Otherwise, they would not only lose the qualification of being a guardian but also be unable to return to the Divine Realm.
“There’s no harm in telling you,” said Qing Linghuan as he suddenly made a move, launching an attack at the head of one of the divine monarchs.
That divine monarch was taken by surprise, and his head was shattered by Qing Linghuan’s blow!
But his Divine Soul remained, immediately controlling his headless body to retreat to a distance.
The other two, who hadn’t expected Qing Linghuan to suddenly launch a sneak attack, reacted and entangled him in battle after realizing what happened.
One against two, Qing Linghuan was not at a disadvantage.
The Nine-Turn Star Annihilation Array had also reached the eighth turn by this time, and the force that wanted to devour You Hao grew stronger and stronger.
At this moment, the array had completely turned into a bloody red color, and blood pillars descended from the sky, surrounding Guan Lan.
His eyes turned completely blood red in an instant, his divine light also transitioning into a red glint with a black aura of malevolence, slashing towards You Hao…
When Sally saw this, she noticed behind You Hao two people entwined by blood pillars flying towards the vortex of the Nine-Turn Star Annihilation Array—it was the brothers Lu Xiaozhan and Lu Changqiu.
Lu Changqiu, protecting Lu Xiaozhan, shouted to You Hao, “Divine Monarch, save us!”
Glancing over, You Hao extended a hand of Divine Power, severing the blood pillars for the two brothers, “Go underground, and there may be a chance for survival.”
Once freed, the brothers immediately burrowed into the ground and ran away.
You Hao looked up at the Nine-Turn Star Annihilation Array, now entering its ninth turn… The world began to darken, the daylight turning golden red, and a beam of stellar power descended.
When the time came, You Hao held nothing back, transforming into a gigantic roc that nearly covered most of the Divine King City.
Unafraid of the blood pillars entwined around his Beast Body, he focused intently, reciting a series of incoherent mantras, speaking very slowly, for fear of mispronouncing even a single word.
Qing Linghuan was also casting spells, no longer entangled with the two half-divine monarchs, and similarly transformed into his true form, chanting the same mantras!
“You all! You want to change the array!” one of the divine monarchs realized.
“It’s the Nine Heavens Circular Forbidden Array, they want to destroy Divine King City!” another divine monarch shouted, and once it started, it could not be stopped.
This was a magical power that only those with Ancient Divine Bloodlines could use, reversing the array at the cost of their Lifeblood Divine Blood. The stronger the power of the reversed array, the more powerfully the Nine Heavens Circular Forbidden Array would rebound after reversal.
“Guan Lan, you are doomed!”
“But we can’t let him off so easily! Attack together!” the headless divine monarch, in unison with the other two divine monarchs, started to attack Qing Linghuan.
Qing Linghuan took it head-on, his left leg nearly breaking, until he finished chanting the mantra, watching the blood-red array begin to turn golden, confirming the reversal’s success.
Turning around, he opened his huge mouth and in one gulp swallowed two divine monarchs! The last half-dead divine monarch, directly trampled into a pulp with his intact right front claw…
Having burned his Lifeblood Divine Blood, his power was at its strongest now.
Guan Lan, the Divine Emperor, had heard of but never seen the Nine Heavens Circular Forbidden Array because the true words of this forbidden array had been lost since the Ancient God Wars.
Could it be that both of them were Ancient Divine Beasts from before ancient times?! Only that would explain their knowledge of this forbidden array’s true words.
“How many years have you actually lived?”
“What do you think, child of a mere 490,000 years of ignorance?” Suddenly, an aura of the primordial wilderness burst forth from You Hao, soaring into the sky.
The array, now transformed into the Nine Heavens Circular Forbidden Array, offered no resistance to him at all.
With a wry smile, the Divine Emperor Guan Lan came to a sudden realization, understanding that among these Ancient Divine Beasts, there were those who existed even before the Ancient Times! The new Divine Clan… perhaps was nothing but a joke in their eyes! They jumped around like little devils, providing amusement and passing the time for them!
His Divine Body was enveloped in the array’s light, all struggles in vain!
Along with the entire Divine King City, the prosperity of tens of thousands of years was instantly reduced to ruins and nothingness.
[Xiaomei?]
[How does the host feel, is it like a special effects movie?]
[You’re the one who’s like a special effects movie. Are those brothers still alive?]
[If they ran fast enough and dug deep enough into the ground, they should be able to survive.]
