Chapter 657: It’s You!

The Reincarnation Celestial Lord clearly had a speech prepared beforehand.

“You don’t need to worry about that, Fellow Daoist, because if I truly become a Saint, that’s the result of countless years of accumulation and won’t affect the next person’s ascension to Sainthood,” the Reincarnation Celestial Lord said with a smile.

Lu Ye couldn’t help but sigh.

“Looks like you really took me for a fool, Fellow Daoist.”

“Since you’ve already brought this up, I won’t hide it anymore. May I ask, what exactly is the Reincarnation Obsession?” Lu Ye asked coldly.

The Reincarnation Celestial Lord’s expression changed.

“What do you mean, Fellow Daoist?”

“In my last life, the Reincarnation Obsession was injected into my body like a toxin, and it erupted when I crossed tribulation to become a Saint. The Reincarnation Obsession only exists within the Six Paths of Reincarnation. In my last life, I was murdered, and you were involved, weren’t you, Fellow Daoist?” Lu Ye said.

“No, in my last life, I absolutely did not participate. Even if I had, I wouldn’t use the Reincarnation Obsession. You should know my character, I never involve myself in others’ karma. Someone must have stolen my Reincarnation Obsession to frame me!” the Reincarnation Celestial Lord exclaimed.

“I doubt that. I know that An Li and the Dark Clan couldn’t have taken the Reincarnation Obsession; you wouldn’t let them have it either. It must have been you who actively brought out the Reincarnation Obsession.”

Because in the last life, An Li and the Dark Clan only had Emperor-level power.

And within the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Emperor-level strength can’t be less than six people.

“It wasn’t me. If I wanted to harm you using the Reincarnation Obsession, wouldn’t that expose my identity?”

“Maybe you were so confident in your victory that you thought I would definitely die and didn’t care about revealing your identity?”

“That doesn’t align with my character!”

“People change!”

“Do you have any evidence?”

“The Reincarnation Obsession is the evidence!”

The expression on the Reincarnation Celestial Lord’s face turned dark.

Lu Ye remained remarkably calm.

He had forgotten to ask the Reincarnation Celestial Lord about this during the fight with An Li. After all, in the last life, the Reincarnation Celestial Lord had never even encountered the Darkness Origin.

But no worries, Lu Ye could forcefully accuse him.

Without evidence, making baseless claims would surely lead to others being wronged.

But no one understands your grievances better than the one falsely accusing you.

“So you’re not only refusing to exchange Saint status, but you’re also preparing to settle the score with me?” the Reincarnation Celestial Lord gritted his teeth.

“Not at all, there’s no evidence. If you find any evidence that proves you were framed, by all means, go ahead,” Lu Ye said with a smile.

Right now, it surely wasn’t possible to eliminate the Reincarnation Celestial Lord, as this wasn’t even the Celestial Lord’s true body.

This guy is so cunning.

If his true form were here, Lu Ye would have already greeted him with the Celestial Lord Fist.

The Reincarnation Celestial Lord took a deep breath, suppressing his raging anger.

“Fine, I’ll go find evidence!”

After finishing, the Reincarnation Celestial Lord disappeared.

Good luck finding evidence from a past life, where are you supposed to look?

A glimmer of killing intent flashed in Lu Ye’s eyes.

Just as he was about to vanish, a figure slowly charged toward him.

Yue Hongling, holding a tattered Ten Thousand Souls Banner, with Shangguan Huanling’s head poking out of it.

“Senior Brother!”

Lu Ye instantly vanished.

He was heading to the Netherworld, planning to bring the entire Netherworld back to the Heavenly Gate.

Now that the veil had been completely torn, if the Reincarnation Celestial Lord were smart, he would definitely head straight for the Netherworld. As long as the Netherworld was completely destroyed, the Six Paths of Reincarnation would be nearly unsolvable.

Because without alternatives, it was tough to completely annihilate the Six Paths of Reincarnation. As long as the Six Paths weren’t destroyed, the Reincarnation Celestial Lord would be eternally indestructible.

Thus, the Netherworld absolutely couldn’t be destroyed.

…

Within the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Ultimately, the Reincarnation Celestial Lord couldn’t hold back his temper.

“Damn it!”

The Reincarnation Celestial Lord roared angrily.

The masters of the Six Paths were taken aback.

The Six Paths consisted of the Asura Path, Human Path, Celestial Path, Hell Path, Hungry Ghost Path, and Beasts Path.

The masters of these paths were all unique Emperor-like beings. Though not true Emperors, they could harness the power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation to unleash strength not weaker than an Emperor.

“Celestial Lord, he didn’t agree?” the Asura Lord hurriedly asked.

“Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!”

The Reincarnation Celestial Lord was furious.

Not only did he refuse, but he had even begun to turn against himself.

“Let’s go, first eliminate the Netherworld!”

The Reincarnation Celestial Lord’s thoughts were clear; he wanted to make the Six Paths of Reincarnation the sole path for the dead. In doing so, he would essentially be in an unbeatable position.

As long as he didn’t want to harm the Order of Heavens and Earth or the Heavenly Dao, no one could touch him!

He should have wiped out the Netherworld long ago.

At first, it was because the Netherworld also had great merit. He aimed to replace the Netherworld as a key existence in the operation of the cosmos, and out of caution, he didn’t take action against it to avoid displeasing the Heavenly Dao.

In hindsight, that was a mistake; he should have directly destroyed the Netherworld. Whether the Heavenly Dao liked it or not, he needed to act.

Later, when he decided to eliminate the Netherworld, it was already too late, as it had retreated to the Seven Heavens.

With the Nine Heavens formed, the Reincarnation Celestial Lord was powerless to act.

In fact, the nature of the Lord of Reincarnation was to hesitate when facing matters.

Honestly, if it weren’t for the Reincarnation Celestial Lord’s personality, he could have become a Saint long ago. After all, he created the Six Paths of Reincarnation system, which is a monumental talent.

And now, the situation was urgent.

The Reincarnation Celestial Lord then made up his mind to destroy the Netherworld.

The Reincarnation Celestial Lord, along with the masters of the Six Paths, vanished in an instant.

Lu Ye had already arrived at the Netherworld at top speed.

“Come with me now!”

As soon as Lu Ye said this, he waved his sleeve, and the entire Netherworld instantly shrank, flying toward his sleeve.

Just when it was about to enter his sleeve, a flash of sword light appeared out of nowhere.

Lu Ye swung his left hand, slicing at it with a sword as well.

“Ding!”

The two beams of sword light simultaneously vanished.

The Netherworld successfully entered Lu Ye’s sleeve.

The Reincarnation Celestial Lord and the masters of the Six Paths appeared.

“Lu Ye, leave the Netherworld!” The Reincarnation Celestial Lord didn’t even call him Fellow Daoist anymore.

Lu Ye looked at the seven of them, a cold smile on his face.

“You want it? Come and take it!”

“Then don’t blame this poor Daoist for being rude!”

With the stakes this high, there was no more time for idle chatter.

It was time to battle.

The Reincarnation Celestial Lord suddenly attacked.

In that instant, a gigantic hand appeared in the heavens and earth, as if it contained the entire world within it.

Lu Ye had long awaited this fight with the Reincarnation Celestial Lord.

He wanted to battle in his last life, but the Reincarnation Celestial Lord had refused to engage.

This time around, wasn’t it just perfect?

“Fight!”

Lu Ye transformed into a streak of light, instantly crashing through the giant palm imprint into pieces.

“Myriad Dao Eternal Fist!”

At this moment, Lu Ye finally felt able to use all his powers from his previous life.

Fist imprints cut through the void, looking as if they were eternally indestructible.

The battle commenced!
