NOVEL WEB Chapter 152
<!-- Before Content -->
In a daze, Jiuyan Old Ancestor felt himself become one with the universe.
Although he couldn’t move, he could see everything.
He didn’t know what was happening.
After all, he was clearly dead, yet he could still see the nine cycles of reincarnation!
‘Even in death, they won’t let me go!’
Jiuyan Old Ancestor’s heart was weary.
But soon, he calmed down.

Even if he saw the nine cycles of reincarnation again, this should be the last time, right?After all, his life force had completely disappeared, and logically, he should be able to truly rest in peace after watching this nine cycles of reincarnation.
At this moment, at Jiuyan Sect’s Ninth Peak.
Mu Kui was stunned. Because he saw Jiang Chen misunderstood time and again, and now he saw Jiang Chen’s Core Formation destroyed for ‘peeping’ at Jiang Lianyue.
After a mix of shock and realization, he became furious.
Blood surged from his pores, dyeing him a bloodied figure, and his hair, in anger, grew longer and turned blood-red.
Seeing this, Jiuyan Old Ancestor was not surprised but could only sigh helplessly.
He knew that this was because the memory seal of the Martial Emperor had been touched.
It was just a trace now, but if he continued to watch, Mu Kui would be irreversibly affected, and the memories of the Martial Emperor would be completely unsealed, attempting to erase these influences.
If he could not erase them, he would self-destruct.
Jiuyan Old Ancestor faintly felt that even the Martial Emperor could not contend with that mysterious force.
Therefore, Mu Kui was probably doomed…
“Alas!” He sighed deeply again.
The scenes Mu Kui saw next were no different from what others saw in the nine cycles of reincarnation.
And with each misunderstanding of Jiang Chen, Mu Kui’s rage escalated.
Until the beginning of Lin Feng, his anger peaked, like an irrational killing machine, wanting to destroy everything in sight.
At that moment, the memory seal of the Martial Emperor was completely broken.
“Boom!!”
A violent aura burst forth from Mu Kui, shooting straight into the sky.
In this aura, his power surged, and under a bloodbath, his crazed eyes looked terrifying.
Influenced by the memories of the Martial Emperor, he was no longer himself right now.
Violence, madness, and the emotions from before his reincarnation completely engulfed him.
The memory took over the body, and the Martial Emperor descended!
“Ah!!!”
The Martial Emperor roared to the heavens, his red hair flying, and blood moved around his body as if alive.
He leaped up, his bones shining with a golden light accompanied by a fiery glow.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
The Martial Emperor kept punching, targeting the golden characters in the sky.
【First Life】
Though his punches hit nothing, they caused the world to tremble. Despite appearing irrational, each strike hit the exact same spot.

He undoubtedly was trying to free himself from the control of others in this way.
Suddenly, the golden characters shone brightly, and the temperature around them gradually rose.
Even though the nine cycles of reincarnation continued and the scenery around him did not change, the Martial Emperor felt as if he was in magma.
His skin gradually melted and peeled off under the high temperature, leaving only a skeleton covered in golden patterns.
Even so, the Martial Emperor did not die.
“Boom!!”
Another punch was thrown.
Flesh grew on his golden bones, and blood reappeared.
This punch was noticeably heavier than the previous ones.
The powerful force actually left a crack on the golden characters of 【First Life】!
Jiuyan Old Ancestor was dumbfounded.
When he came back to his senses and checked the state of the Martial Emperor again, it was like seeing a ghost!
A second ago, the Martial Emperor was just a skeletal figure, but now he had completely regenerated flesh and blood, restored to his original state.
No, more than that.
The increasingly rich blood aura and the even brighter golden bones proved one thing.
He had become stronger!
‘This, this is the Martial Emperor Physique…’ Jiuyan Old Ancestor was astonished.
Having watched the nine cycles of reincarnation several times, he knew Mu Kui was the reincarnation of the Martial Emperor, but he never imagined he would be this strong!
Especially this Martial Emperor Physique.
It was said that the Martial Emperor Physique was a rare constitution that, once the body broke through a certain limit, could advance to become the Martial Fierce Emperor Body, an immortal body.
And at the end of this constitution, one could be immortal and regenerate from a drop of blood.
Jiuyan Old Ancestor had been skeptical about this because immortality was indeed an exaggeration, even emperors fall!
But at this moment, he dared not doubt anymore.
Perhaps the Martial Emperor before him had not refined his physique to the ultimate realm, but he was already capable of regenerating flesh from bone!
‘Unfortunately, no matter how strong you were in your previous life, your cultivation in this life is ultimately not high, and you cannot contend with that mysterious force. Perhaps you could not do it even in your prime.’ Jiuyan Old Ancestor shook his head again.
At this moment, the nine cycles of reincarnation had become a mere backdrop.
Although the scenes continued to change, neither the frenzied Martial Emperor nor Jiuyan Old Ancestor were watching.
The Martial Emperor continued to try to destroy those few golden characters.
Despite his madness, he was certain that if he could destroy those golden characters, he would be able to escape the current situation and not be manipulated by others.
And after each punch, his flesh and blood would be burned away, leaving only golden bones, which would then regenerate flesh again.
This cycle repeated countless times.
During this period, Jiuyan Old Ancestor’s sighs never ceased.
The Martial Emperor sought to defy the heavens.
That mysterious force in the darkness also helped Jiang Chen defy the heavens.
Although their goals seemed the same, in reality, they were not.
The Martial Emperor defied the heavens in order to find his own path, to realize the Dao, break through the heavens, and ascend.
And his way was the self! A way of reveling in oneself, unrestrained, not manipulated nor influenced by anyone.
Even if the goals were the same, the moment someone tried to manipulate or influence him, he would rise in rebellion, regardless of whether the other party was the heavens themselves.
“Boom!”
The Martial Emperor threw another punch.
<!-- IncontentPercentage -->
The Jiuyan Old Ancestor thought this punch wouldn’t be any different.
But…
“Crack—”
A crisp shattering sound rang out.
The characters 【First Life】 that the Martial Emperor had hit precisely, suddenly cracked and shattered into golden fragments in an instant!
“Did he… did he succeed? Did he successfully defy that mysterious force?”
Jiuyan Old Ancestor couldn’t believe it.
In front of that power, he couldn’t muster any resistance.
But this Martial Emperor, this madman, had actually shattered the golden characters!
Hahaha! I am the Martial Emperor, I look down upon the world, I walk the path of breaking through the heavens! Those who obstruct me, I shall kill! Those who block my path, shall die!
The Martial Emperor stood in the air, laughing madly.
Looking at his figure, Jiuyan Old Ancestor felt both terrified and excited!
Is this what an emperor is?
Even after reincarnating and cultivating anew, he could contend against such a powerful force just with his own martial insights?
How many years had it been?
After suffering severe injuries and being unable to advance his cultivation, Jiuyan Old Ancestor had given up on becoming an emperor.
But at this moment, his blood boiled again, yearning for the true emperor!
‘It’s a pity, my life and path have ended.’
Jiuyan Old Ancestor felt bitter once more.
Suddenly, another “crack” sound, the world closed, and everything turned into nothingness.
<!-- Incontent 2 -->
Jiuyan Old Ancestor and the Martial Emperor both thought that this should allow them to leave the nine cycles of reincarnation.
But, as it turned out, both were too naive.
A ray of sunlight pierced through, instantly dispelling the darkness.
When the darkness had completely faded, they were still at the Jiuyan Sect.
And the characters in the sky that read 【First Life】 had now changed to 【Second Life】.
Not only that, the characters 【Second Life】 had grown countless times larger, almost covering the entire sky when put together!
At this moment, the Martial Emperor was stunned, and Jiuyan Old Ancestor was dumbfounded.
After all the commotion, it wasn’t that the Martial Emperor had shattered the golden characters, but rather the First Life had abruptly ended!
Suddenly, the sky-covering golden characters began to twist and change.
Eventually turning into…
【Keep punching, I lose if you can still move!】
