I was just making up techniques… how did all of you become Emperors? Chapter 677 677: Chu Feng Repels the Divine Emperor, Ji Jiuwu Unifies Central Continent and Stabilizes the Four Seas

Previously on I was just making up techniques… how did all of you become Emperors?...
The four divine beast kings—Mad Lion, Golden Ape, Nine-Headed Bird, and Twin Tiger—agreed to share rewards from defeating Cao Youqian based on their contributions. Meanwhile, Cao Youqian and Xiao Chen planned to lure the beast kings into the open for a joint assault. Seven days later, Cao Youqian challenged the Mad Lion in the void, provoking the others to reveal themselves. With Xiao Chen joining the fray, their divine domains clashed fiercely against the beasts'. Cao Youqian and Xiao Chen swiftly shattered the domains of the Mad Lion and Golden Ape, slaying them and trapping the fleeing Nine-Headed Bird and Twin Tiger.

"Spare... spare my life!"

The Twin Tiger Divine King became the initial one to plead for mercy. In the vicinity, the Nine-Headed Divine King, catching sight of that, quickly chimed in: "Spare me, spare me, fellow Daoist. I assure you I won't set foot in this Hongyuan Continent ever again."

"Begging for mercy comes too late now—Extreme Dao Divine Fist!"

With a thunderous roar, Cao Youqian unleashed both fists at once toward the Twin Tiger Divine King's head, smashing it to fragments in a flash, ripping his divine soul asunder, and extracting his divine core all in one fluid strike.

Simultaneously, the treasured blade in Xiao Chen's grasp came slicing down too. The Nine-Headed Divine King, eyeing the descending divine sword, yelled out in panic: "Ancestor, save me!"

Hearing that, Xiao Chen replied in an icy tone: "No one can save you."

With those words, the blade he held slammed downward. Everywhere the sword glow passed, the Nine-Headed Divine King's nine heads tumbled to the earth at once, while nine divine souls scattered in various directions.

Of course, Xiao Chen would never allow the foe an opportunity to flee. His sword moved nimbly, sending forth a sword qi that morphed instantly into nine sword beams, each targeting one of the nine divine souls directly.

"Stop!"

Out of the emptiness, an elderly and imposing voice echoed from far off.

Even though this voice originated thousands of miles distant, it caused hearts to quake in terror just from being heard. A genius like Xiao Chen, unmatched in his generation, almost saw his Dao heart shaken by it, yet he pressed on without pause.

Boom!!!

With a deafening blast, the Nine-Headed Divine King faced total obliteration—body and soul eradicated entirely.

"How daring!"

The voice from the void erupted in rage and shame right away. It had never imagined anyone would have the audacity to ignore its command.

"You mere younglings actually dare assault my grandson. Today, I will crush you beneath my power!"

Even before the sentence concluded, a gateway of radiance emerged in the sky, and a True God totem took shape overhead.

It resembled a nine-headed avian totem shrouded entirely in blazing fire.

Though just a totem, the godly pressure it released set the whole Hongyuan Continent quivering.

Upon beholding this True God totem, even Xiao Chen and Cao Youqian knitted their brows. The godly aura it emitted was steadily wearing down their Dao hearts, as though intent on snuffing them out for good.

They could no longer afford to stand idle and await doom!!!

Once this identical idea crossed their thoughts, they resolved to unite their strengths and subdue the True God totem facing them.

Right at that moment, a well-known voice abruptly sounded: "Fellow Daoist, this remains nothing but a clash among the young—why fly into such fury? If you remain unsatisfied, this Divine Emperor stands ready to duel you."

The instant this voice appeared, every disciple in the Wendao Sect surged with thrilled energy.

"Master has come back!"

"Daddy's back!"

"..."

All of them started scanning for Chu Feng's form but spotted him nowhere.

Grins of delight spread across Cao Youqian and Xiao Chen's faces. Their Master had shown up, and he too had ascended to Divine Emperor.

The True God totem in the sky caught these words and began hunting for the voice's origin, yet discovered none. It declared: "Cease your deceptions with me. If you possess the power, reveal your might."

"Just as you desire."

Chu Feng's words barely ended when a True God totem clutching a lengthy sword arose in the void. Before the foe could utter a word, yet another True God totem bearing a scroll and a flask of wine materialized. In no time, nine True God totems emerged in the sky, encircling the nine-headed fiery bird totem at their midst.

Wearing a grin, he inquired: "Does this satisfy you, fellow Daoist?"

"It does, it does. This Divine Emperor concedes defeat on this occasion. I will depart now." The totem responded without delay.

"Hold on."

Chu Feng halted the other's retreat.

"What more does fellow Daoist require?"

The True God totem queried with a quiver in its tone. It had never foreseen that this newly born continent was shielded by an ultimate powerhouse who commanded nine True God totems. It wielded only three itself—in combat, its very existence would hang by a thread.

Smiling, Chu Feng stated: "Starting today, Hongyuan Continent falls under my domain. You and your ilk must refrain from meddling at will. Should you violate this, I will rip open the void next time to confront you, allowing you to behold my full fury in person."

Gasp...

In a remote emptiness, atop a continent dominated by demons, a demon race Divine Emperor drew in a sharp, chilling breath. It hadn't anticipated that this fearsome entity hadn't even unleashed its utmost power. It promptly replied: "Agreed, we vow never to trespass Your Excellency's domain again."

Upon getting the reply, Chu Feng recalled his nine True God totems. Since the adversary hadn't manifested bodily, no battle was necessary. As his totems vanished, the nine-headed bird totem also vanished into the void.

Cao Youqian and Xiao Chen shared a look, then headed back to the Wendao Sect side by side.

As the fierce confrontation concluded, Chu Feng gradually stepped from his secluded yard. Emerging outside, he beheld a throng of disciples. The two Chu sisters dashed ahead at once and flung themselves into their father's embrace, exclaiming: "Daddy, you've finally come back."

The rest of the disciples all offered deep bows to Chu Feng: "We pay respects to Master."

"Rise, no need for such ceremony."

Chu Feng smiled as he gently patted his daughters' shoulders.

Before long, Chu Feng escorted his entire group of disciples into his personal yard for some casual talk, absorbing their tales of events from the passing years.

In the end, Chu Feng directed his eyes toward Ji Jiuwu and remarked smilingly: "Jiuwu, your Dao foundation lacks only a touch to hit 999. Should you embrace this major conflict, your Dao heart will solidify, and your ideas will surge freely."

At those words, Ji Jiuwu dropped to his knees instantly: "Gratitude for Master's wisdom. This disciple will command the forces to eradicate the demon race."

"Mmm."

Chu Feng gave a nod, then cast a pointed glance at Cao Youqian and Xiao Chen. Grasping the hint, the pair chose to safeguard their Junior Brother Ji for one final occasion.

On the following day, Ji Jiuwu guided the Wendao Sect's disciples on a westward advance. Lacking the four mighty Divine Kings' defense, the demon hordes crumbled swiftly and were quelled by Ji Jiuwu's Wendao Sect command in under a month.

Having quelled the demon multitudes, Ji Jiuwu's mind cleared up at once, becoming utterly unhindered, and his Dao foundation achieved complete wholeness right away. He chose to advance on the spot, compelling the surviving demons to behold his godly presence.

Chu Feng had observed his disciple's progress throughout. With time's passage, the energy surrounding Ji Jiuwu shifted in kind.

After a full eighty-one days, Ji Jiuwu ascended to the Divine King stage, forming a divine core. His godly pressure swept across the entire Central Continent without delay. Innumerable creatures there felt this known yet dreadful godly pressure and prostrated themselves over and over toward Ji Jiuwu's position.

He sent his voice via divine sense right away: "I, Ji Jiuwu, now stand as a Divine King of the human race. Henceforth, the Central Continent will revere my human race. Any who resist submission will face immediate suppression!"

Hearing this proclamation, every being in the Central Continent kowtowed repeatedly toward Ji Jiuwu and declared with utmost respect: "We humbly follow the Divine King's decree!"

In that instant, a ray of destiny bathed Ji Jiuwu's form, and the destiny's glow over the Wendao Sect shone ever more radiantly...
