Chapter 1598: Supreme Emblem!

Chapter 1598: The Emblem of Supreme Might!

Zhou Zhan stared blankly at the phantom legend holy seal in his hands.

He never imagined—this thing was somehow connected to the immortal artifacts.

Those were divine instruments, wielded only by beings of the Eternal Immortal Realm!

Now, it was in his own hands?

Zhou Zhan felt utterly dreamlike.

Yet, the Supreme Will brought him back to clarity.

He understood that while this object might rival an immortal artifact, it was only because of its effect upon the Fanciful Race—it was as powerful as an immortal artifact for them.

As for other races, Zhou Zhan had no idea what use this might hold.

Zhou Zhan summed it up in his mind.

Currently, once assembled, it serves two primary purposes: first, it enables the bearer to inherit an eternal, unshakable realm lineage; second, it possesses immense destructive power against the Wandering Race.

Beyond these two effects, no other functions are currently apparent.

Zhou Zhan's lips twitched twice.

Considering this, this counterfeit immortal artifact truly has a rather ambiguous effect—hard to pin down.

Only when, in the future, he faces the Wandering Race directly, will this item truly shine.

"Here, take this."

At that moment,

the Supreme Will extended its right hand, and a pure white emblem resembling a closed eye appeared in its grasp.

The emblem floated upward, drifting toward Zhou Zhan.

Zhou Zhan gazed at the emblem before him.

What is this?

Zhou Zhan looked toward the Supreme Will.

"This is a small trinket I created casually," said the Supreme Will.

"Call it the Emblem of Supreme Power."

"It contains a fragment of my own strength."

"When you face danger, activate it with your will—this fragment will transform into a manifestation of my power, temporarily shielding you."

"And I will sense its activation instantly, then come rushing to save you."

The Supreme Will spoke.

Zhou Zhan's eyes widened slightly.

He stared at the emblem, a spark of fervor igniting within his gaze.

This was truly a seal imbued with a single strand of the Supreme Will!

The Supreme Will—when transcending beyond the realm of pure will—was a being so rare in combat that few could stand against Him.

Even a single fragment of His power? Surely even ordinary Will-Transcendent warriors would find it beyond their reach?

"Thank you, Great One of the Supreme Will!"

Zhou Zhan immediately grasped the seal in his hands, his heart brimming with an unshakeable sense of security.

The Supreme Will nodded slightly.

This, in essence, was a measure of self-protection He had granted.

Originally, He had no intention of bestowing such a powerful safeguard at this juncture.

Yet, His successor had risen in strength and drawn the attention of enemies at an astonishing pace.

Now, even upper-tier, Supreme Will-Transcendent warriors were already launching attacks upon Him.

Cannot imagine what kind of stronger being might dare to strike against Him in the future.

Could it be a being whose will has transcended the realm of transcendence?

The Supreme Will, thinking this, could not help but smile silently.

"Supreme Will, sir."

At that moment, Zhou Zhan produced the legendary Virtue Seal, gazing at it and asking, "What should I do with this treasure now?"

This was a Will Artifact rivaling immortality tools!

Holding it made his hands feel scorching hot.

As a player who favored survival, if it weren't for the sheer power of this Will Artifact, which he simply couldn't bear to part with, he would have long ago discarded it.

After all, it was truly a hot potato.

Now, it could provoke even a superior Supreme Will-being to take action against him.

What kind of enemies could possibly come after this—no one could even begin to imagine!

Whether it was Zhou Zhan or Zhou Zhou, both of them deeply disliked such objects that could bring them trouble.

For this directly violated the very principle of their cautious survival.

Upon hearing this, the Supreme Will couldn't help but smile again.

"After all, you're now a powerful being possessing the might of Supreme Will."

"Still so cowardly?"

The Supreme Will teased.

Zhou Zhan's face broke into a wry smile, saying:

"I do have some strength now, but isn't that still far from invincibility?"

If he were truly invincible, of course, he would have no fear.

The key point is, he hasn't become invincible yet.

Upon hearing this, the Supreme Will shook his head.

"Rest assured, keep it."

"With the Supreme Seal I've given you, you can still safeguard this treasure."

Zhou Zhan glanced at the Supreme Seal beside him, exhaled in relief, nodded, and then finally tucked the Fanciful Legend Holy Seal away with peace of mind.

If the Supreme Will has said so, then he might as well keep it safely.

After all, it was a holy artifact of will, comparable to an immortal artifact, and furthermore, it carried an unknown inheritance from the realm of eternal, unshakable existence!

Such a treasure, Zhou Zhan could never truly part with.

Having concluded the matter of the Fanciful Legend Holy Seal, Zhou Zhan then asked, "Supreme Will, having lost their commander within the Yellow Realm, what are your next plans?"

"Of course—seize the momentum and strike further!"

The Supreme Will chuckled lightly, "The Cycle of Rebirth's will is correct—though we cannot reclaim the Yellow Stream Domain in the near term, we can at least regain portions of its territory."

Having said that,

He turned to Zhou Zhan and said, "Come with me too."

"It would be a perfect opportunity to gain firsthand experience in battle against the Unreal Clan."

"You will eventually stand upon the Dusk Battlefield and face the Unreal Clan in full combat."

"And, in truth, the Yellow Stream Domain is your ancestral territory as the heir of the Yellow Stream Will."

"You must contribute to this war as well."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhan hesitated only briefly before nodding in agreement.

The Supreme Will was right—He indeed needed to defend his own domain.

And this was, without a doubt, a splendid chance to gain battle experience.

Moreover, He also wished to thoroughly test the power of this mythical holy seal.

But merely using the mythical holy seal to kill three members of the mythical race still felt unsatisfying...

Upon seeing Zhou Zhan accept the task, the Supreme Will smiled faintly.

"Then come tomorrow."

"Alright."

After that, Zhou Zhan and the Supreme Will conversed for a while longer before Zhou Zhan excused himself and departed.

He needed to return and prepare the army and supplies, readying for the great confrontation with the army arriving in the Yellow Afterlife Realm the next day.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Will gazed at the place where Zhou Zhan had gone, his eyes filled with a mixture of sorrow and admiration.

"His path of growth differs entirely from that of the Heaven-Punishing God King and the Spring-Autumn Law Master."

At that very moment...

A cold voice echoed beside him.

"It continues: the Heavenly Punishment God King is the path of an invincible, unrivaled sovereign!"

"Meanwhile, the Spring and Autumn Law Master embodies the path of a hidden dragon, reaching its ultimate form!"

"As for the young master, the People's Sovereign Emperor—"

"He bears the shadow of the Heavenly Punishment God King's path of invincibility, and also the essence of the Spring and Autumn Law Master's path of the hidden dragon."

"Two utterly contrasting paths of sovereignty—yet now, they harmonize perfectly within one being: the People's Sovereign Emperor."

"Amazing!"

"Unbelievable!"

He murmured, filled with awe.

In his words, he bestowed upon Zhou Zhan the highest possible praise.

"Because His rise was too swift."

The Supreme Will spoke softly: "Swift—so swift that many of His enemies hadn't even reacted when He had already surpassed them."

"Swift—so swift that even during His periods of stillness, He remained a force no ordinary adversary could dare to challenge."

"And thus He reached this very day."

The Supreme Will sighed with deep reflection.

"His path to ascension was utterly unrepeatable."

"Even the Heavenly Punishment God-King and the Spring-Autumn Law Master could not replicate it."

"How admirable it is that you have such three heirs."

This voice murmured.

The Supreme Will smiled gently.

Then this voice added, "Why don't you take away His Falsehood Prophecy Seal?"

"That thing, when wielded in His hands, would be of far less power than when held by you."

"With that Seal in your grasp, you could swiftly eradicate the entire Falsehood Clan and drive them back to their ancestral homeland."

The Supreme Will remained silent for a moment before speaking, "Precious artifacts have souls."

"Since the Falsehood Prophecy Seal has chosen the Sovereign of the People rather than me—since it has chosen one who is not the mightiest—it proves that the Sovereign of the People is fated to bear this treasure."

"Even if I forcibly seize it, I would only end up with a disobedient artifact."

"Therefore, let it remain with the Sovereign of the People."

"And merely driving the Falsehood Clan back to their homeland is not my true aim."

"Did you truly think so?"

The voice seemed to have suddenly grasped an idea, rising in tone.

The Supreme Will said nothing, only smiled to itself, murmuring, "Let us see just how far this little one will go."

"Never let me down, my dear heir."

On the other side,

As Zhou Zhan was about to depart, he suddenly struck his head.

"I forgot to deliver the letter from the Yellow Springs Will to my elder brother and Tuber."

"And Tianyang Wuzhu—I completely forgot about Him."

"Hmm, let me deliver Tuber's letter first."

"The letter from Hun Tian—let's discuss it when we meet tomorrow."

"And then I'll go see Tianyang Wuzhu."

Zhou Zhan knew that at this moment, the Will of the Cycle was likely busy deploying forces. Going to Him now might only cause disruption. So he refrained from seeking out the Will of the Cycle, and instead went first to Tuber, delivering the letter from the Will of the Cycle.

Tubu wept bitterly upon reading the letter from the Will of Reincarnation, then thanked Zhou Zhan sincerely before departing immediately.

Later, Zhou Zhan went directly to Tianyang Wuzhu.

When he arrived at the site of the inheritance of the Yellow Springs Will, he found the gate sealed shut.

Zhou Zhan froze, a bad intuition rising in his heart.

"Impossible..."

He murmured silently, then a thought flashed through his mind.

And suddenly, the sealed gate of the Yellow Springs burst open, and a series of figures erupted from within the sanctuary, fleeing as if from a great danger.

At the forefront stood Tianyang Wuzhu and his Wu Chancellor.

Their faces were filled with shock and relief, as though they had just escaped a dire calamity.

Their highest deities beneath them all wept uncontrollably, their divine forms trembling with overwhelming emotion.

At this moment.

They finally saw Zhou Zhan and the twenty Supreme Deities under his command, far off in the distance.

Like saviors, they immediately soared toward him.

As soon as they arrived, Tian Yang Wu Zhu exclaimed with sorrow and fury: "Your Grace, the Celestial Sovereign, I almost thought I would never see you again!"

Zhou Zhan: "..."

Then Tian Yang Wu Zhu immediately recounted the entire sequence of events.

After hearing it, Zhou Zhan felt a subtle discomfort.

Indeed, it was exactly as he had suspected.

It turned out that, before departing, he had feared that the divine beings—especially Tian Yang Wu Zhu—might be harmed by the ripple effects of combat from the Sovereigns of Supreme Will. So he had advised them to retreat to the site of inheritance to avoid the aftermath.

But alas, while the site of the Yellow Springs Will’s inheritance was indeed safe, the very moment they had just entered, the main gate of the site abruptly sealed shut!

Good heavens!

This was the sacred gate established exclusively by the masters of the Supreme Will—ordinary upper-tier Supreme Will beings could not even breach it, let alone these younglings from the ranks of Tianyang Wuzhu, who themselves had not yet attained the rank of Supreme Will.

When they realized they were completely trapped here, despair flooded their hearts.

They could not even reach out to the Sun Emperor, truly calling upon heaven for no response and earth for no answer.

Had it not been for Zhou Zhan's return later, they would have remained imprisoned here for ages before anyone even noticed.

"It was my oversight," Zhou Zhan openly admitted, "that caused such unforeseen misfortune for all of you."

"I shall invite you to drink wine someday."

Zhou Zhan confessed his mistake with unflinching honesty.

Seeing Zhou Zhan's sincere apology, combined with his breathtaking, celestial beauty, the deities such as Tianyang Wuzhu could not help but let go of their anger. In an instant, their fury dissipated.

"Never mind, never mind."

"We didn't stay inside for very long, really."

"Your Majesty, the Celestial Sovereign has spoken too highly of it."

Tian Yang Wu Zhu stepped forward and spoke first.

Zhou Zhan smiled and nodded.

"By the way—"

Tian Yang Wu Zhu suddenly remembered something, peering cautiously around him. "Has the battle between the top-tier warriors just ended?"

"Yes, it has."

Zhou Zhan nodded.

"Who were they fighting? Who won?"

Tian Yang Wu Zhu asked curiously.

That recent battle most likely pitted two beings of Supreme Will against each other.

Such confrontations at this level are not uncommon—He was genuinely curious.

"The combatants are our Cycle Will and the highest commander of the Delusion Clan within the Yellow Spirit Domain, Death Whisperer."

"As to who emerged victorious... naturally, it was us."

"Death Whisperer has been utterly extinguished."

Zhou Zhan smiled faintly.

Tianyang Wuzhu stiffened, then burst into excitement.

"Master Cycle Will just ascended not long ago, yet he effortlessly defeated a seasoned top-tier Supreme Will being!"

"Wow, Master Supreme Will's discernment of his subordinates remains as sharp as ever!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhan paused for a moment, then said: "It was not the Cycle Will who slew Death Whisperer."

"Who was that?"

Tianyang Wuzhu asked immediately upon hearing this, his curiosity piqued.

Could it be that another powerhouse of the Supreme Will Realm had intervened?

"It was me,"

Zhou Zhan said, straightforward and without hesitation.

Since he had decided to cooperate with Tianyang Wuzhu, displaying a suitable amount of his power was undoubtedly a good move; thus, Zhou Zhan did not hold back in revealing his strength, which was why he spoke of the matter so openly.

Yet, much to his surprise, the moment the words left his mouth, the expressions of Tianyang Wuzhu and the other gods instantly turned bizarre.

Zhou Zhan froze for a moment before the realization struck him.

They didn't believe him.

But then again, it made sense.

Who dares imagine a third-tier Supreme God could slay a top-tier Supreme Will Master?

It's nothing short of pure fantasy.

"If you don't believe me, go ask your father emperor."

"He should know about this."

Zhou Zhan said that and stopped there, offering no further explanation.

And his calm, unshakable demeanor cast a shadow of doubt within Tianyang Wuzhu's heart.

Given his composed, indifferent expression—could it be that the Death Whisperer was truly slain by him?

Yet how could a third-tier Supreme God possibly achieve such a feat?

Not even the Celestial Sovereign, the Emperor of the People, could do it.

And even the Tian Cheng God King and the Spring and Autumn Law Master of the same era? Surely not.

But at this very moment,

His personal terminal suddenly received a message.

He glanced at it, and his divine form trembled.

When he looked again at Zhou Zhan, he felt that this elder brother before him could be described with nothing but reverent awe.

It was true—what the Emperor had said—this Death Whisperer was indeed slain by the Celestial Emperor's Sovereign!
