The prismatic palm crushed the Heavenly Eye.

The Heavenly Sovereign jerked and coughed blood. As he looked up again, he watched the figure eaten away by the black energy, Sacrificing yourself for a moment of Sovereign Stage power, humph. Well played, younger brother. But its still your loss.

We two are the only ones who have touched upon the Supreme Stage. You used that power to give me a heavy wound at the price of your life, but how will you stop me when I heal? Youve only delayed the inevitable. Ill be the last one standing in the end!

Think again!

A soft voice reached him and in a prismatic glow, a pink arrow shot the Heavenly Sovereign.

The Heavenly Sovereign sneered, Emotion Sovereign, I am wounded, but not enough for your cheap trick to work. Divine Eye of the Void, Void Barrier!

Whoosh~

Twelve barriers formed before the Heavenly Sovereign, blocking the arrow. The Heavenly Sovereign gave a triumphant smirk.

Clap~

The Heavenly Sovereigns left eye flashed with lightning and the barriers were destroyed. The pink arrow struck true, striking him and making his eyes go pink.

Ha-ha-ha, Heavenly Sovereign, werent you on the heartless path, the empty void? My bewitching is nothing on others but deadly on you. Your very path is at risk of crumbling and you want to ruin the world? Humph!

I-impossible!

His neck went red and the Heavenly Sovereign spat, Why did Purple Lightning Gold Eye flared up. You got the drop on me knowing this would happen. How?

An image appeared of Emotion Sovereigns soul, Did you think yourself the winner? Long before you approached Kunpeng, she had approached him. Your destruction plan had won you no allies, while your Divine Eye of the Void grew their fears. So she sacrificed herself in a plan with Kunpeng, leaving a trace of her soul behind in the purple lightning to strike at the right moment and help me plant the bewitching. Now you understand, Heavenly Sovereign, the best in the world!

Younger brother, to think that its you who won in the end!

The Heavenly Sovereign clenched his fists as he made a bitter face at the fading image of his younger brother, Well done. Ive always been above you all our lives, but you won this time. But now those Sovereigns only have their path protecting them, weak. While Im bewitched, even with a thread of hope, I will be back. Time is on my side. I will take back this win!

He went back to Sword Hearts side. The weakened Sovereigns couldnt stop him.

The fading younger brother showed a faint smile, Elder brother, Ill stop you even in the next life!

Fine!

Nine Serenities smiled. The old man nodded, You met my regrets in the Nether Sea, but the Heavenly Sovereign has now destroyed it. I guided you to the Heavenly Rebirth Lake to see you and check if you inherited the Supreme path from your past.

The Supreme path?

Zhuo Fan was confused, What is going on here? The Heavenly Sovereigns younger brother was the past me? Didnt he sacrifice himself? Without a Sovereign path, a broken soul would fade away. Did he reincarnate here? No, no way. He was burned down to nothing

The two laughed, with Nine Serenities speaking, Even destroyed, how was it that you got reborn, Zhuo Fan?

Wasnt it through your Nine Serenities Secret Records, through desire?

Could anyone be reborn by relying on anothers soul through desire? Rather, your soul wasnt obliterated in the detonation, leaving but a fraction behind. Not even you could damage it. Why then was this sliver protected?

Zhuo Fan exclaimed, Sovereign path?

Yes, my path has been shielding your soul from total destruction.

Nine Serenities nodded, When the Heavenly Sovereigns younger brother died, I used my path to protect his sliver of soul and reincarnate. As for me, I reincarnated too, but lived a mortal life.

Zhuo Fan gasped, Then the you here

A shadows memories

The Rebirth Sovereign explained, A sliver of obsession. You know that to reincarnate at the Heavenly Rebirth Lake, one must leave behind memories, feelings, everything. Nine Serenities left behind his thought of reincarnation in order to see with his own eyes your return according to the plan to inherit that Heavenly Daos of before. Only then can he find peace.

Zhuo Fan was conflicted, Shadow?

It cant even be called a soul, only a shadow of a thought. After seeing you, it will fade. Nine Serenities smiled and patted his shoudler, You now have a choice. Inherit the emotional Heavenly Daos and grasp the precious power, fulfilling the promise in blocking the Heavenly Sovereign from destroying the world. Or do nothing and wait for death. The Heavenly Sovereign will be coming here soon to steal the rebirth path.

Zhuo Fan cried, You call that a choice? No one wants to die!

Of course it is, a choice of the heart.

Nine serenities was solemn, You said it yourself, youre a selfish demonic cultivator, but you were once on the emotional Heavenly Daos path. Your hearts differ and thus makes inheriting that power impossible. Even though youre one and the same

Zhuo Fan hung his head, Everything can be fake in the world, but only my heart is ever true. I could never just give up all these years spent on the demonic path at the drop of a hat. And for a path of love? Why did I even choose demonic path in the first place?

Because you had my Sovereign demonic path. So no matter what life youd have, all would choose the demonic path, even if you were the son of a righteous leader.

Why do I get the feeling you played me?

Zhuo Fans mouth twitched, In that case, why not just give me a righteous Sovereign path. They didnt want to? Was only master Nine Serenities willing to sacrifice himself for me? Is that a way to treat the guy who sacrificed himself for the world?
