Chapter 562: Right Eye Twitching Means Disaster? Just Feudal Superstition!

Chapter 562: Right Eye Twitching for Disaster? Just Feudal Superstition!

“Don’t talk nonsense—I’m a kind and positive person, how could I toy with you?”

“Look, the blood vessels all over my body have burst!”

“Especially those capillaries—they’re bleeding!”

Qi Yuan said earnestly, extending his fair arm to show the Flame Realm Lord.

The Flame Realm Lord’s eyelid twitched violently. “Are you insulting me?”

At this level, injuries were wounds of the Great Dao, wounds of the rules.

Losing one’s head meant nothing.

A capillary rupture—that counted as an injury?

“No, absolutely not. I swear on my character—hurry up and dissolve your rules. I’m about to die. Grant my wish quickly!” Qi Yuan, shameless as ever, put on an explosive performance.

“You seek death!” The Flame Realm Lord, enraged, stopped dissolving his rules and attacked Qi Yuan instead.

Seeing this, Qi Yuan sighed leisurely. “If you want to die, just kill yourself. Why trouble me?”

He was no longer the man he once was.

The Flame Realm Lord had self-destructed twenty-three times, bringing Qi Yuan a vast amount of experience.

His strength had increased considerably.

Most importantly, with each self-destruction of the Flame Realm Lord, the flame rules dissolved further. Qi Yuan, holding the Renqi Guangming representing “fire,” had reached an extreme in his comprehension of flame rules.

“Back then, killing you took a whole day. Now, having grasped all flames in the world, I need only thirty breaths.”

As Qi Yuan spoke, a pale white flame rose from his body.

“Ancestor of all fires, origin of myriad flames, condense in my hand, burn eternally!”

With Qi Yuan’s words, terrifying and extraordinary flames surged and spread.

Flames of the Netherworld!

Samadhi True Fire!

Red Lotus Karmic Fire!

Solar True Fire!

Lunar True Fire!

Each flame bore an extraordinary, mysterious hue.

Placed in any realm, they could forge wonders and move the mysterious.

Now, all the flames burned, annihilating everything—even void, singularities, and dark matter were incinerated clean.

“Since you won’t kill yourself, I’ll help you along!” Qi Yuan’s assault was ferocious.

“How is this possible? How have you grasped the true essence of flames?” The Flame Realm Lord fought back desperately.

But he was no match for Qi Yuan.

After all, Qi Yuan had now entered the Myriad Things Realm.

And wielding the same true essence of flames, his attacks were devastating.

“Ten, nine, eight… three, two, die!”

With Qi Yuan’s words, the Flame Realm Lord lasted only twenty-nine breaths before falling here.

“Void Realm Lord, join me quickly—he’s not in the Rule Realm!” the resurrected Flame Realm Lord roared.

In the distance, the Void Realm Lord, blocking the retreat, changed expression several times before finally saying, “I only agreed to block his escape route!”

This Realm Lord before him was far too inscrutable, having inexplicably grasped the Flame Realm Lord’s rules.

He dared not strike.

“I’ll die!” the Flame Realm Lord bellowed. “After I die, it’s your turn!”

The Void Realm Lord remained unmoved.

Could Qi Yuan really invade the Black Heaven?

Impossible.

So he chose to watch.

After all, if he attacked and Qi Yuan also grasped his rules, the loss would outweigh the gain.

“No!”

The Flame Realm Lord roared, crying out in despair, and was slain again.

Each death came faster.

Meanwhile, above the Imperial Star.

A group of Ancestral Gods were shaken. “He can actually slay a Realm Lord!”

“It was all an act!”

“Slaying a Realm Lord—hiss!”

These Ancestral Gods couldn’t fathom it.

Even a Realm Lord could be killed!

With such strength, with Qi Yuan guarding the Void Sea, who would dare invade the Divine Wood Universe!

“We’ve won, we’ve won!” the hot-tempered bearded man exclaimed, ecstatic.

The white-browed elder also revealed a gratified smile.

For so many years, facing the invasion of Black Heaven and Black Earth, the Divine Wood Universe could only retreat step by step.

“With the Flame Realm Lord fallen in this battle, Black Heaven and Black Earth will surely be deeply wary. In the remaining tens of millennia, we can safely forge Luminous Treasures!”

“Yes, once our Luminous Treasures increase in number, we’ll no longer be defenseless against Black Heaven and Black Earth’s invasion!”

The Ancestral Gods present were stirred.

For so many years, they had not felt such joy and excitement as today.

“Dead… the Flame Realm Lord has been utterly slain!”

“Lord Qi Yuan… has killed a Realm Lord!”

At that moment, all the Ancestral Gods were profoundly moved.

Because this time, after the Flame Realm Lord died, he never revived.

They had witnessed the fall of a Realm Lord with their own eyes.

That was a Realm Lord!

Without Renqi Guangming, a terrifying, majestic existence impossible to withstand.

“Qi Yuan!”

"Realm Lord!"

All the Ancestral Gods cheered, their previous arrogance and superiority long gone.

To them, with Qi Yuan slaying the Flame Realm Lord, the other Realm Lords of Black Heaven and Black Earth would surely be wary, hesitant to invade the Divine Wood Universe rashly, granting it a period of calm.

At that moment, a flash of light flickered.

Yuan's figure appeared.

Seeing Yuan, all the Ancestral Gods hurriedly exclaimed with excitement: "Yuan, there's no need to summon Dao Lord Radiant Light—Lord Qi Yuan has already slain the Flame Realm Lord!"

"Yes, the Flame Realm Lord was killed by Lord Qi Yuan—what a thrilling battle!"

"We... are about to welcome ten thousand years of peace and tranquility!"

The Ancestral Gods present eagerly shared their joy and elation with Yuan.

After so many years, they could finally hold their heads high and breathe a sigh of relief.

Yet, many noticed that Yuan's expression was far from pleased.

"Yuan... has something happened?" Sheng Nu asked cautiously.

It had been a long time since she had seen such a look on Yuan's face.

The last time, when Black Heaven and Black Earth invaded and Yuan ventured alone into the Void Sea, his expression had not been this grave.

"Yuan... what happened?" the hot-tempered bearded man could not help but ask.

"The Thread... is gone," Yuan said with difficulty, his voice laced with despair and endless desolation.

"The Thread? What Thread? The Thread is gone?!!!" A Ancestral God, upon hearing this, stood frozen, disbelief etched on his face.

"How could it be... how could the Thread be gone? Aren't there still tens of thousands of years left?" the hot-tempered bearded man muttered, his face a mask of incredulity.

The Thread was gone—every Ancestral God present understood the meaning of those words.

When the Thread ends, Black Heaven awakens and formally invades the Divine Wood Universe.

Then... in just one day, the Divine Wood Universe would be utterly destroyed!

The seven Lights of Human Awakening could not illuminate all worlds, could not withstand Black Heaven—they needed far more Lights of Human Awakening.

"How could this be? The Thread was fine—how could it just vanish? Could it be a mistake?" the white-browed elder looked at Yuan, yearning for a different answer.

Now, their immense joy had been doused with cold water, leaving them frozen, unable to breathe.

"Not good—the Void Sea! Quickly, tell the Realm Lord—the Thread is gone!" At that moment, a Ancestral God recalled something.

When Black Heaven awakens, it devours the Void Sea the slowest—perhaps half a day.

Half a day later, it would devour the Divine Wood Universe.

Qi Yuan, still within the Void Sea, was now in extreme danger.

Instantly, many Ancestral Gods sent transmissions to Qi Yuan.

The next moment, every Ancestral God's expression froze.

Countless gazes turned toward the Void Sea, their faces twisting into despair.

"Black Heaven..."

"Black Heaven has truly awakened!"

"We're doomed!"

"We haven't prepared at all—even if we wanted to flee, we couldn't!"

The Ancestral Gods were in utter despair.

Meanwhile, within the Void Sea, the Void Realm Lord's eyes also filled with terror.

"Black Heaven awakens... why has Black Heaven awakened early?"

Aboard the warship, countless Spectral Spirits and Yang Gods were gripped by panic.

Their despair was no less than that of the Ancestral Gods of the Divine Wood Universe.

Black Heaven's awakening meant... everything would be destroyed, including... Black Earth.

At that moment, Qi Yuan stood in the Void Sea, wielding the seven Lights of Human Awakening, his expression turning grim.

"Has Black Heaven awakened?"

He gazed into the depths of the Void Sea, where a colossal black bubble was expanding at an unimaginable speed, devouring everything in its path.

Even the terrifying, stable Void Sea, before that black bubble, seemed as fragile as tofu.

In an instant, millions of miles of space were consumed.

Countless colors, points of light, and lines were swallowed.

Qi Yuan, holding the Lights of Human Awakening, stood above the Void Sea.

Messages from many Ancestral Gods came through his communication artifact:

Black Heaven has awakened—retreat at once!

The Divine Wood Universe has only one day left.

"Retreat?" Qi Yuan narrowed his eyes.

He had never fought a battle unprepared, always prevailing by overwhelming strength.

But this time, staring at that bubble, he felt his own insignificance for the first time.

His right brow twitched wildly.

The frequency of this twitching was more than ten thousand times fiercer than when he had encountered Qi Huang—indescribable.

But it was his right brow, which meant extreme danger.

A billion deaths, no chance of survival.

The black bubble devoured relentlessly.

Qi Yuan stood still, his gaze deep.

"My eyes... cannot see the information of Black Heaven."

All along, his eyes had been able to see hidden information—a powerful reliance of his.

Many times in crisis, he had broken through using his eyes.

Even forging a Creation Artifact with a Zi Mansion body to slay a Great Principle.

But now, his eyes, looking at that terrifying, dark, chaotic black bubble, saw nothing.

This was the first time he had encountered such a thing.

On Wangyue Continent, facing enemies far stronger than himself alone, he had never felt this way.

"Black Heaven... what exactly is it?"

Qi Yuan stood there, the black bubble's devouring speed swift.

Perhaps within an hour, it would reach his current location.

"Should I flee?"

Qi Yuan murmured.

Now, regarding the big boss of this game, he still had no useful information about the Black Heaven.

And the brow of his right eye was frantically warning him, telling him that moving forward was a dead end.

A death trap!

An unsolvable death trap!

“I’m just a game player—if even a game virus scares me… wouldn’t that be too embarrassing?”

“Besides, I invested in this game. If I back out… won’t the game be gone?”

“Stealing my company, a dirty business war?”

“You’re asking for death!”

Qi Yuan’s gaze grew resolute.

“A dead end?”

“Then let me see just how dead it is!”

At that moment, the seven pieces of Human-Enlightened Radiance blazed with infinite brilliance.

The heavens and earth within the Void Sea were illuminated by that radiance, as if it were the sole light in the darkness and depth.

“I’ll go and meet this so-called Black Heaven!”

Without any further hesitation, holding Human-Enlightened Radiance, Qi Yuan charged resolutely toward that enormous bubble.

He wanted to see for himself what kind of entity this Black Heaven truly was.

“Realm Lord!” When they saw this, all the Ancestral Gods were horrified.

No one had expected Qi Yuan to attack the Black Heaven with Human-Enlightened Radiance in hand.

In everyone’s consensus, the Black Heaven was invincible, unmatched.

Otherwise, even the Void Realm Lord of the Zhou Universe had once said that if he could incorporate the Divine Wood Universe into his cycle, he might ascend further.

But because of the Black Heaven’s existence, that Void Realm Lord of the Zhou Universe dared not set foot in the Divine Wood Universe.

Moreover, the even more majestic and unfathomable Radiant Light Dao Lord had never descended upon the Divine Wood Universe either.

The Black Heaven… was utterly unbeatable!

And now, Qi Yuan, wielding Human-Enlightened Radiance, was actually charging at the Black Heaven.

“Can he… stop it?” someone hesitated, despair deep in their eyes.

“The Dragon’s Doom—this is the Dragon’s Doom!” The white-browed old man let his chess piece fall, forming a hexagram… Dragon’s Doom.

This was his divination path, the most hopeless of all outcomes.

It was also the first time in all his years of fortune-telling that such a hexagram had appeared.

“Bang!”

The hot-tempered bearded man kicked the hexagram over.

“What nonsense Dragon’s Doom! The Realm Lord faces the Black Heaven alone—we should be thinking… what the hell do we do?”

“Qi Yuan is the Realm Lord, wielding seven pieces of Human-Enlightened Radiance… perhaps he can hold back the Black Heaven… for seven hours,” said the Yang God of the Celestial Tribe.

Back then, when the Black Heaven descended, the Human King held half a piece of Radiance Marvel and held it off for half an incense stick’s time.

Human-Enlightened Radiance was a Realm Lord-level marvel, but not an ordinary one.

“Seven hours…” Yuan’s face was calm, his voice cold. “That means we have nineteen hours left.”

“Nineteen hours… too short,” the other Ancestral Gods said bitterly.

“No more idle talk—we must preserve the seeds of civilization!” the hot-tempered bearded man declared.

At that moment, Sheng Nu took a deep look at the Void Sea, her beautiful face shadowed with sorrow.

Within the Void Sea.

Seven beams of light were extraordinarily vast, as if they could illuminate all heavens.

In the Divine Wood Universe, countless worlds and countless beings seemed to see those seven beams appear, and above them, the pitch-black, deep Black Heaven.

The original Black Earth warship shattered in that instant.

All the Black Earth clansmen, including the Boundless Realm Lord, vanished at that moment.

The Black Heaven’s awakening meant the end of the Black Earth—or rather, a transformation into another form of life.

And now, Qi Yuan was infinitely close to that terrifying black bubble.

The brow of his right eye twitched wildly; Qi Yuan also sensed an extreme aura of danger.

“Superstition is not to be believed!”

“Cut it down!”

All his great skills, absolute adaptation, and so on, were unleashed at this moment.

The seven pieces of Human-Enlightened Radiance also played their due roles.

At this moment, Qi Yuan unleashed the strongest strike of this era.

Even the mere overflow of this strike was enough to annihilate stars.

Yet… the black bubble ahead remained motionless.

And… Qi Yuan’s vision changed in that instant.

“Am I… inside the Black Heaven?”

Qi Yuan looked ahead, above.

The heavens and earth here were endless darkness—a blackness beyond description. Even Qi Yuan could see no matter, no distance, no flow of time.

Only within a meter of Human-Enlightened Radiance was there faint light.

Just then, suddenly, within the Black Heaven, countless dense points of light flickered.

Like the eyes of living beings.

In that moment, Qi Yuan sensed that billions of terrifying beings were all scrutinizing him.

These were indeed the eyes of living beings!

These beings were none other than the former Black Earth clan—or rather… there were even more other terrifying existences.

“Boundless Realm Lord?” Qi Yuan looked at the nearest figure, surprise in his eyes.

“I am Boundless, yet not Boundless.” That deep, shadowy figure spoke. He reached out his hand to Qi Yuan, his expression cold, devoid of any emotion. “Welcome to join us!”
