Chapter 871: Haoyue, I Will Atone for Your Sins (Finale)

Within the world filled with black and red, the foul air surged and circled in the sky. The temperature somewhere would suddenly skyrocket from time to time. That must have been due to the dark red lava that burst through the earth and flowed out wildly.

Suddenly, a streak of purple light lit up in the air without any prior signs. The wondrous part about it was that the purple light actually froze in the air, before slowly parting to two sides, creating something like a gate.

Two figures appeared in this world of black and red while holding hands.

Translucent white armour covered a young man. The crown embedded with nine gemstones on his head seemed so dazzling. As soon as he had appeared, the white light from the armour easily pushed away all of the foul air in this world of black and red.

Something even more wondrous happened to the girl whose hand he held. The girl was a great beauty with long, loose hair. She just hovered beside the man, but her body gave off a pure and refreshing aura. Within the world of black and red, all of the foul air would be purified within a third of a meter from her.

“I’ve finally found the destination through the aura left behind in Haoyue’s bloodline.” Was the person clad in the Armour of Eternity and Creation Long Haochen? The person beside him was obviously Cai’er.

Cai’er said softly, “Haochen, you shouldn’t worry too much. According to the information that Haoyue left to you, he should have begun his rebirth already if he could.”

Long Haochen nodded, “Haoyue will definitely return. Not only has the sealing symbol that it left on me before death frozen my cultivation at nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine spiritual energy, it’s also told me that Haoyue could be reborn. If I’ve guessed correctly, he’s left that symbol on me so I can use the same method to seal up Haoyue after he’s reborn. Even if Austin Griffin’s residual soul of destruction is reborn in Haoyue’s body, it won’t be able to become powerful enough as long as I seal Haoyue’s cultivation forever, so the God of Heavenly Wrath, the nine-headed chimera won’t appear.”

On that day, Long Haochen, Haoyue and the Demon God Emperor worked together and finally killed Austin Griffin’s head of destruction. Haoyue also died because of it. Before he passed away, he left behind a symbol on Long Haochen, sealing his cultivation forever. In other words, Long Haochen had no need to worry about dying after becoming a god.

The Demon God Emperor comitted suicide, taking his wife’s letter with him to the next world in search for her, his most beloved. From a certain aspect, he was not truly dead. His cultivation had already reached the level of a god. Even though he did not have the position of a god, his soul was extremely powerful. Perhaps he really would be able to find the soul of his wife.

With the death of the Demon God Emperor and losing all the demon god pillars, the demons had lost their leader. All of their powers would decline as time went on, just like what the Demon God Emperor said.

When Long Haochen woke up, he had a careful discussion with the Moon Demon God Agares. Agares returned to the demons and reorganised their remaining power, pulling back towards the ocean. They returned half of the human’s territory at first. As time would go on, the demons would only be integrated into the humans having lost the demon god pillars.

A year passed very quickly. Long Haochen and Cai’er, Sima Xian and little white flower, Lin Xin and Li Xin, Han Yu and Weiyang, Zhang Fangfang and Wang Yuanyuan, Chen Ying’er and Yang Wenzhao all tied the knot of marriage.

Under Long Haochen’s persuasion, Bai Yue who had suffered both heavy physical and emotional blows ended up forgiving Long Xingyu. Long Xingyu returned to Odin Town with her and settled down in a small cottage on Odin Mountain. At the same time, Long Xingyu revoked his pact with the Divine Throne of Doom and Slaughter, passing it onto Yang Wenzhao. He said he wanted to use the second half of his life to make it up to Bai Yue. He was no longer a divine knight, only Bai Yue’s husband.

When Long Xingyu had sacrificed his life for Long Haochen, both Bai Yue and Long Haochen had forgave him. After all, blood ran thicker than water!

After the great battle, Long Haochen’s renown within the Temple Union climbed to the limit. He was publicly acknowledged as the greatest hero in human history.

With that year, Long Haochen devoted himself to governing the humans under the assistance of the higher-ups from the six temples after getting married. He constantly took back territory from the demons and also handled the internal affairs of the Temple Union in an orderly manner. Everything had enter the right path.

It was also at this moment that Long Haochen suggested that the chairman of the union would hold the position for a term of five years, with an election in between to choose a new chairman, vice-chairmen and assemblymen. They could serve for two terms at most.

With the darkness gone, the continent still had not achieve peace completely. Long Haochen needed to continue as the chairman of the union. Fortunately, he had set a deadline for this job. After nine years, he would be completely free. He could go traveling with Cai’er, even visiting other realms.

To Long Haochen, his greatest pity was Haoyue. A year had passed, so if Haoyue could undergo rebirth, he should have returned. And, Long Haochen had already made his preparation for Haoyue’s rebirth.

Long Haochen stopped in the air with Cai’er. He let out a resonant call at the sky and in less than an hour, the ten undead kings gathered.

Sensing how Long Haochen’s aura was so powerful that they could no longer oppose it, the ten undead kings greeted him politely.

Long Haochen spoke to them for an hour, which they then dispersed.

“Can they really be trusted?” Cai’er said to Long Haochen with some worry, “What if they do something bad to Haoyue after finding him? What do we do?”

Long Haochen shook his head gently, “You don’t understand what they want. To them, they would even be willing to give up their soulfires if this world could regain the aura of life. Because then, it was Haoyue as Austin Griffin who had destroyed all the life in this world. The reason why we’ve come here is so I can atone for Haoyue’s sins to the best of my ability. I believe the undead kings know what’s best for them. They started their search. Let’s start as well.”

As he said that, Long Haochen descended with Cai’er until he landed on the ground. Sensing the toxic air in this world of black and red, Long Haochen could not help but sigh. Destruction would always be much easier than creation!

With a flash of green light, the fairy of god Ye Xiaolei silently emerged from the gemstone on Long Haochen’s chest.

“Is this the place you were talking about? What putrid air. Is it really possible here?”

Long Haochen nodded firmly, “I believe that it’s possible. For the sake of Haoyue, as well as to let life bloom in this realm, I have to do everything I can.”

Ye Xiaolei nodded, “Then let’s start. The Armour of Eternity and Creation on you has the aura of the creator god. If there’s a person who can complete this feat, you’ll probably be the only one.”

Long Haochen smiled, “Then let me play the role of creator god for this realm.”

Cai’er separated her arms before his chest. Pure-white Flourishing Lotus Flowers flew through the air one by one. Gradually, balls of white light expanded in the air, purifying all of the filth here.

Before long, a space one thousand meters tall by three thousand square meters had been completely purified by the aura of the Domain of Purification. The air became much fresher.

Long Haochen moved with a flash and the ground began to rumble. The tough, black earth gradually shattered, while the cracks with lava were forcefully sealed up and forced down by Long Haochen.

Afterwards, large swathes of soil was scattered in the air. This was the soil from the Shengmo Dalu. The heavy smell of earth began to spread through the area.

Ye Xiaolei emitted hazy, green light as the dense aura of life fused into the soil as it fell down. The black ground was gradually replaced by an earthy-yellow colour. The dense aura of life took root in the ground.

Long Haochen let out a roar at the sky and his body released a ball of golden light. It slowly rose into the air like a golden sun, hanging there. After the consolidated, solid spiritual energy became fixed in the air, it released the dense aura of light. With Long Haochen’s cultivation, the miniature sun he had created could last for a month without extinguishing at the very least.

Long Haochen scattered seeds which he had already prepared into the ground. Following that was water. Gentle water was scattered in the air, like a downpour after a drought.

This was not the end. After doing all this, Long Haochen used the forbidden spell of Holy Rain, making the golden rain descend once more. At the same time, he had summoned the king of Easton who cooperated with Ye Xiaolei, filling the entire region with a dense aura of life.

Gradually, green sprouts emerged from the soil at a surprising speed. With the input of so much aura of life and the nourishment of sunlight and water, they began to grow rapidly.

Those were tree sprouts. Their roots began to extend to even deeper places. As they absorbed the dense aura of life, they also began to give off their own aura of life.

Long Haochen had chosen species of trees that had the most vitality, yet were also highly resistant to the environment. Two hours later, a forest had appeared silently there. Under the illumination of the sun, they automatically purified the air within the region enveloped by the Domain of Purification.

At a certain point in time, a large amount of undead began gathering over outside this green world. Indescribable emotions leapt about in their soulfires.

The Knight of Judgement of the Dead arrived with the Lich King. Looking at the greenery and sensing the dense aura of life, they were utterly overjoyed.

Looking at all the undead outside the Domain of Purification, Long Haochen said solemnly, “In the past, Austin Griffin brought destruction to this realm. I want to atone for his sins. Today is only a beginning. I will use my actions to demonstrate to you that the aura of life will rise up in this realm once again. The heavy, filthy dust and poisonous clouds in the air have blocked the real sunlight. I plan on using a decade to gradually purify and clean it up, so that real sunlight will fall on this place. This realm does not lack water. It’s just that most of it has been buried deep underground by the lava was soil. I believe that the day when I draw out the water from below and the sunlight from above will be the day when this realm regains its aura of life.”

“I, Long Haochen, swear from this moment on that as long as I am alive, this realm will regain its own aura of life and a complete food chain will begin evolving. I don’t know how long this process will take, but all I can say is that I will do everything I can. I know that it’s very likely that Haoyue will be reborn into this world, but it’s also possible that he won’t be reborn ever again. But no matter what, my promise today will not change. I only hope that if you do find it, please do not harm it even if you hide it away from me. On the day when I complete my promise, please give Haoyue to me, alright?”

The Knight of Judgement of the Dead and the Lich King flew over slowly. Looking at the sturdy trees that had grown from the ground, they arrived at the edge of the Domain of Purification and slowly dropped down on one knee.

“You are our creator god. I swear on my soulfire that if Austin Griffin is reborn, we will definitely bring it before you,” the Knight of Judgement of the Dead said with respect.

With a flash, Long Haochen had left the Domain of Purification. He personally helped the Knight of Judgement of the Dead and the Lich King to their feet, “Thank you for believing in me. I will use my actions to fulfill everything I’ve said. Now, I need to continue my job. If it’s possible, please get your subordinates to help out, so the aura of life can be reignited in this realm.”

“As you command,” as the Knight of Judgement of the Dead shouted out, all of the undead bowed towards Long Haochen.

Long Haochen cast his gaze into the distance and murmured, “Haoyue, I’m here. Where are you?”

Over five thousand kilometers away, within a small mountain hollow, an egg shining with a faint purple fell down as it bounced off the rocks. Tiny cracks began to appear on the egg and a small, triangular lizard head emerged from the cracks with difficulty…

Fin.
