At this moment, everything in heaven and earth changed.
The Supreme was surrounded, with those Three-Star Clans encircling him like tigers eyeing their prey, their eyes blood-red, as if they had taken some kind of drug, staring at the Supreme hungrily.
The feeling that any of them could self-detonate at any moment made the Supreme feel like this time, he might truly meet his doom.
Lin Fan directly lifted the lid of the furnace, gazing at the Supreme at the center of the encirclement, and burst into loud laughter.
“Supreme Sovereign, you didn’t expect things to turn out like this, did you? That You immediately fled when he sensed danger, abandoning you outright. It seems your relationship wasn’t as deep as you thought.”
Lin Fan shook his head with a sigh, feigning sorrow, as if he pitied the Supreme for the fate that awaited him.
“Beast! I am the supreme of the Ancient Clan, blessed by the Will of Heaven itself. You think you can kill me? You don’t have that capability!”
The Supreme roared furiously. The current situation was indeed dire. These Three-Star Clans were his own subordinates, and he knew the power of their self-destruction well. Especially the explosion just now, whose might had exceeded even his expectations.
“Heaven’s Will! Heaven’s Will! Heaven’s Will!”
Faced with certain doom, the Supreme raised his head to the sky and screamed, his voice piercing through all, reaching the heavens themselves.
“You all step aside. The Supreme is about to go all out.”
Though Lin Fan didn’t know exactly what the Supreme was planning, he dared not underestimate him.
After all, the Supreme was still the Supreme. Even when cornered, he was still far beyond Lin Fan’s level.
Even more importantly, as the saying goes, anything important must be said three times.
The Supreme had just shouted “Heaven’s Will” three times, which meant he was about to unleash his ultimate power.
Boom!
A deafening explosion suddenly erupted.
In the void, a bottomless, pitch-black vortex abruptly appeared. Within this vortex surged a terrifying force that chilled one to the bone.
Could this force be…Heaven’s Will itself?
Everyone raised their heads, even Lin Fan couldn’t help but look up in astonishment.
“I am the Supreme of the Ancient Clan. Today, I will wash away the humiliation you’ve brought me with your blood!” The Supreme raised his hands, his eyes filled with ruthless intent. He knew that if he didn’t fight with all his might today, he might perish here.
He was the Supreme of the Ancient Clan. How could he be slain by these insignificant insects?
That despicable “You” had the audacity to flee out of fear for his life. Once he defeated these loathsome pests, he would make sure You paid dearly.
Bang!
The Supreme’s body suddenly exploded, tearing open a wound, but no blood flowed. Instead, a mysterious aura spiraled outward, merging with the vortex in the sky.
Boom!
The vortex exploded, and a curtain of light poured down like a waterfall.
Blinding light and vibrant energy filled the air, shocking everyone present.
“This is the Eternal Throne!”
From within the vortex, a majestic throne descended, ruling over all creation.
Clouds and mist swirled around the throne, exuding an awe-inspiring and domineering presence. The eternal aura emanating from it captured everyone’s gaze.
With a single step, the Supreme leapt forth. From him radiated ring after ring of shockwaves. Each expanding ripple amplified his aura even further.
In an instant, a massive altar abruptly rose from the waves, with the Supreme standing atop it, his entire being becoming shrouded in mystery.
At the moment the altar appeared, heaven and earth trembled, and the void itself shattered repeatedly, as if gravely wounded.
Lin Fan furrowed his brow. Upon the altar, he sensed a strange energy—one oddly familiar, as if he had encountered it before.
In an instant, Lin Fan’s eyes widened in disbelief. Within the swirling mists of the altar, scene after scene unfolded before his eyes.
“Sacrifice!”
“Sacrifice!”
Within these scenes, countless beings offered treasures and prayed for blessings.
Some sought power, others wealth, and still others, authority.
Even Lin Fan saw the modern world he had once lived in.
Inside a dark room, a group of modern-day individuals clad in black robes chanted mysterious incantations before a star-shaped formation array.
At the center of the array stood a platform, upon which lay a woman, like a sacrificial offering.
This scene quickly faded, replaced by another.
“This is the Ancient Saints’ Altar,” said Feng Qianzi, stunned. “Through sacrifice, it fulfills the desires of the offerers, thereby enhancing its own power.”
“How could this be? How could this be?” Feng Qianzi’s face turned pale, as if struck by a heavy blow, his expression turning deathly white.
“What do you mean, Senior?” Nanwu Holy Emperor and the Female Emperor looked bewildered, unable to comprehend the altar’s significance or why it had such a profound effect.
“Hahahaha! Feng Qianzi, you finally understand now, don’t you? This is all your doing. The Ancient Clan’s growing strength has been entirely the result of your Great Thousand Races.”
“It was your insatiable sacrifices that made the Ancient Clan’s Heaven’s Will even stronger.”
The Supreme laughed maniacally, his eyes ablaze with madness.
He would become the mightiest among all Supreme Ancients.
And this Ancient Saints’ Altar was his sole foundation.
“Never did I imagine that this was all our own doing,” Feng Qianzi said in disbelief.
Long ago, Heaven’s Will was not invincible.
Among the Great Thousand Races, there were countless prodigies, even those capable of rivaling Heaven’s Will.
But as time passed, they discovered that the Ancient Clan grew stronger while the Great Thousand Races weakened, until finally, the Ancient Clan’s Heaven’s Will became supreme, unmatched in the world.
All of this—everything—Feng Qianzi had previously thought was simply due to the Ancient Clan’s overwhelming strength, their seizing of too many resources, thus growing powerful.
But now, he realized it was not so.
It was the very beings of the Great Thousand Races who had elevated the Ancient Clan to the throne.
“That’s right. It was all your doing. You have no one to blame but yourselves. But today, you all shall perish here. I shall unleash the accumulated power of the Ancient Saints’ Altar over countless years and utterly subdue you.”
The Supreme laughed maniacally.
Boom!
In an instant, a mighty force erupted from the Ancient Saints’ Altar.
This force was so overwhelming that no one could resist it in the slightest.
“Damn, so even this young master unknowingly contributed to the Ancient Clan’s strength.”
Lin Fan wasn’t stupid. By now, he understood exactly what was happening.
Back in the Xuanhuang Realm, Lin Fan had always thought that sacrifices were truly beneficial.
As long as one offered enough treasures, nothing was unattainable.
Now, he realized that all those sacrifices had only served to strengthen the Ancient Clan.
Buzz!
Suddenly, a curtain of light violently erupted from the Ancient Saints’ Altar, enveloping the Supreme in a column of radiant energy.
“Boy, you’ve been hiding in that furnace quite comfortably, haven’t you? Now, this Supreme shall trap you in that furnace forever.”
“What?!”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s expression changed drastically. From within the Ancient Saints’ Altar, a massive hand suddenly emerged, pitch-black and blotting out the sky, reaching toward the Celestial Furnace.
And the Celestial Furnace itself was uncontrollably drawn toward the Ancient Saints’ Altar.
“My dear disciple…” Seeing this, Feng Qianzi’s face turned pale, and he tried to intervene, but found that the power emanating from the altar was like an impenetrable wall, preventing them from advancing even a step.
“Damn it, this has gone too far. The Supreme’s hatred toward me has spiked through the roof, and his first target is me!”
At this moment, Lin Fan felt a surge of panic.
For the first time, he realized that even hiding inside the Celestial Furnace was not absolutely safe.
“Old man, you all retreat first. I have the Furnace to protect me. I’ll be fine. Jie, take them away from here,” Lin Fan roared. He hadn’t expected that after the Supreme unleashed his ultimate power, he would become so terrifyingly strong.
What the hell was this Ancient Saints’ Altar? Why did it have to be so overpowered?
Jie had already been converted by Lin Fan and naturally obeyed without question. In an instant, he wrapped Nanwu Holy Emperor and the Female Emperor into the void and vanished.
“You all shall die. But before that, this Supreme shall deal with you first.”
Clearly, the Supreme’s hatred toward Lin Fan had reached its peak.
