In the Void Realm, Qin Shi stood alone in front of the stone tablet. His eyes were red. He suddenly felt that everything was ridiculous.
"Kid, it's time to make your final decision. There's not much time left in this world." The nefarious devil sighed.
"I can't let you sacrifice yourself!"
Qin Shi shook his head. His eyes were red. "I've never wanted to be the savior of this world. I just want to protect the people I want to protect. I've already lost someone very important to me. I can't lose you too!"
The nefarious devil's eyes were also a little red when he heard Qin Shi's words. At this moment, he suddenly smiled. "Kid, to be honest, being able to meet you in this life makes me feel that my life has meaning. However, you must make a choice now. Furthermore, I'm only becoming your natal demonic beast. This way, you won't have to help me find a physical body."
"Qin Shi, you must make a choice. The Blood Cloak has already enveloped the entire Desolate Spirit Road. Although the Saint Martial Devouring Crystal can withstand it for a year, two months have already passed. If you can't become an Emperor in ten months, then … this world will face a calamity."
Fufeng and many experts from the Ancient Era appeared around Qin Shi. With the stone tablet as the center, there was actually a huge formation.
"My king, please prove the Dao for the world and save all living beings in this world!"
"Qin Shi!
Make your move. For the world, make your choice! "
No one knew who spread the news that Qin Shi had found the way to become an Emperor. Everyone knew about it. All the survivors in this world gathered in front of the stone tablet. They all knelt on the ground as if they were paying respect to their king.
"Qin Shi, save this world!"
"That's right, Sect Master. We still want to live. We don't want to die. I beg you, save us."
At this moment, all the living beings in this world surrounded Qin Shi. His eyes turned red. He suddenly felt that this was very laughable. Not long ago, he was still cursed by the people of this world as a sinner. But what about now?
These people were kneeling at his feet, asking him to save this so-called laughable world.
"You're forcing my hand!" Qin Shi glared at Fufeng angrily.
Fu Feng didn't deny it. He also looked at Qin Shi with a sad expression. He knew that this was a cruel decision, but he had no other choice.
"Qin Shi, this is your fate. You must abide by it. This Heaven and Earth cannot be destroyed. If you do, you will not be able to protect all the people you want to protect."
"Kid, make your decision. It's nothing much. For us brothers to be able to become one, it's actually a form of pride for me. Haven't you always wanted to be the big brother? Actually … I've never told you that. I've long since acknowledged you. Let's do it."
Qin Shi's eyes were red. He was very unwilling, but at this time, the array formation had already been activated, and he had no choice.
In the blink of an eye, he fell into a deep slumber, his mind filled with nothing but hatred for Zhe Tian.
Something seemed to be awakening in Qin Shi's mind. That thing turned out to be the demonic blood that had always been in his body.
At this time, Qin Shi was enveloped by a huge array formation. In the end, both he and the demonic demon had to make their final choice.
The formation was like an iron tower that reached the heavens, erected in the middle of the Void Realm.
Fufeng looked at the black iron tower and let out a long sigh. He gazed into the distance, at the place where the Mortal World used to be.
"My King, I'm lucky that I didn't disappoint you. All of this is finally over. He will definitely become an Emperor!"
"I never thought that the true way to become an Emperor would be to fuse human and demon bodies …."
"It's not that simple."
Fufeng sighed. "Becoming an Emperor requires both human and demon to be willing. This is the case for both the Emperor Source and the Emperor Body. This is also why Zhe Tian used thirty thousand years to force Qin Xue Xin into a cold-blooded person in order to obtain her bloodline."
Many of the experts from the Primordial Era lowered their heads.
"Do you guys think this kid will succeed?"
"He definitely will. The Qin Sect's Sect Master is a man of his word. He has something he wants to protect, so … he will definitely succeed!"
Everyone was looking forward to it. In the darkness of the iron tower, Qin Shi felt as if he had fallen into an endless darkness.
He didn't know how long he had been drifting in this primordial chaos. Qin Shi felt his entire body become heavy, constantly falling into the darkness.
"Kid, kid!
Wake up, wake up! "
Just at this moment, the call from the demon rang out softly. Only then did Qin Shi awaken abruptly.
Qin Shi raised his head. There was no light here, so he looked into the distance.
"Is that you, Demonic Demon?
Where are you? "
"Silly boy, this is your inner world. Next, you need to refine me and make me your Natal Magical Beast. Only then will you be able to achieve a Monarch Realm body and become a Monarch!"
"Kid, I've been fighting with Zhe Tian for so many years. Because of you, it's worth it. Let's begin!"
The demonic demon's voice kept ringing in Qin Shi's mind. However, Qin Shi's eyes were bloodshot. He didn't want to do this. Was he really going to sacrifice everyone around him for the sake of the common people?
What was the point of all his hard work for all these years?
Qin Shi wasn't willing, but he had no other choice. He couldn't give up, because he still had many people he needed to protect.
"Demonic Demon, lend me your strength to kill Zhe Tian. I'll destroy myself in exchange for your freedom!"
"Idiot, I've been following you for so many years, I'm already used to it. Besides, after you become an Emperor, you can also reconstruct my body. There will be a chance. Let's work hard now and defeat Zhe Tian!" The demonic demon's voice kept ringing out.
Qin Shi finally calmed himself down and began to open his heart.
In fact, Qin Shi had already studied Natal Demonic Beasts a long time ago. Unfortunately, he didn't have a way to refine one from the very beginning.
Natal Demonic Beasts were created by absorbing the soul of a fierce beast into one's own body, and then fusing the two into one, becoming a part of oneself. However, during Qin Shi's many attempts, he discovered that the place where his Natal Demonic Beast resided in his body had always been closed. It was as if something was already living inside.
However, this time, Qin Shi went deeper. He followed his heart all the way until he reached the deepest part of this world.
Finally, Qin Shi saw the place where his Natal Demonic Beast resided. However, there was a huge stone gate there. When he saw the stone gate, he frowned slightly. The stone gate was actually covered with a black totem. That totem was very familiar to him.
That was because that totem was the same one that had appeared on Qin Shi's arm. However, now that the totem had expanded, it had become very large, and it completely covered the entire stone gate.
When Qin Shi saw the stone gate, he suddenly revealed a bitter smile.
"So, when you entered my body back then, you went to this place?"
"Actually, you can't blame me. At that time, you were just a piece of trash with broken meridians. Your dantian was destroyed, and your Sea of Consciousness hadn't formed. You also didn't have a place for me to live, so I randomly found a place. I didn't expect that this place would actually be your Natal Palace!"
Qin Shi nodded. All of this was fate. It seemed like a coincidence, but everything was moving towards the final outcome. He couldn't change it, so he could only follow the will of the heavens.
However, this time, he wouldn't do the same. He had seen the reincarnation of heaven and earth, witnessed failure, and watched with his own eyes all the people he cared about die in front of him one by one. Therefore, he wanted to go against the heavens.
When the huge stone gate was opened, what Qin Shi saw was a very small, slightly cute nine-eyed black qilin. When the small qilin saw Qin Shi, it let out a soft cry towards Qin Shi.
Qin Shi's eyes turned red. He gently walked forward and hugged the small qilin.
"Little guy, from now on, you are me, and I am you!"
Qin Shi took a deep breath. Twenty years ago, when the evil spirit entered his body, he felt endless despair. These years, he had suffered the betrayal of the Human World, the pursuit of the Devil World, the abandonment of heaven and earth, and everyone seemed to have abandoned him. However, the evil spirit had always been by his side.
Those years were really lonely. The world was big, but there was no place for him. However, from now on, this would no longer be the case. From now on, this world would be under his protection.
Qin Shi took a deep breath. The small qilin seemed to feel Qin Shi's sorrow and gently licked Qin Shi's cheek.
At this moment, the two of them merged into one in the dark stone gate.
At the center of Qin Shi's back was the dark totem. Qin Shi suddenly changed. The first Law Deity, the second Dharma Body, the evil spirit, and Qin Shi's soul fused endlessly at this moment.
During the whole process, Qin Shi didn't feel a trace of pain. What he had experienced in the past twenty years flashed through his mind. Every scene seemed like it had happened yesterday.
Shi Lan, Luo Xuexian, Zi Lingsha …
Those who had sacrificed their lives for him.
The Qin family, the Qin Sect, the Qin Palace, and those who had risked their lives for him.
Fufeng, Yuan Bo, and the many ancient powerhouses!
Those who had never complained for 30,000 years for the sake of heaven and earth.
Finally, the image of a young girl appeared in Qin Shi's mind.
At this moment, Qin Shi's entire body fused. His strength was sublimated, and he seemed to be above the world. Most importantly, in his mind, there was a piece of ice that had been frozen for thousands of years. Unexpectedly, it slowly melted at this moment.
In that frozen world, he saw a girl with long blue hair.
Yes, that girl's name was Qin Xue Xin!
