The puppet avatar grinned menacingly. Yi Shuihan's repeated resistance enraged him, and he had decided to stop holding back. Even if he accidentally killed Yi Shuihan, it wouldn't matter. What was a secret that surpassed the Dao Creation Realm? As the Great Dao Emperor, he could afford the loss.

With mastery of the power of time, Yi Shuihan was incredibly fast, almost like teleportation. In just a breath, he left the World of Destiny and disappeared into the endless chaos.

"How is this possible? His speed is incredible!"

The puppet avatar was chasing after him, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't close the distance. He could only barely keep up, which shocked and dismayed him.

In fact, Yi Shuihan didn't need to escape at all. He could have gone back and fought against the puppet avatar of the Poison Heart Emperor. He would have been very likely to win. However, he didn't choose to do so. The other party was just a puppet avatar. He should expose as little as possible so that he would have more trump cards when he actually faced the real one.

Yi Shuihan's strategy was very clear: stall for time until the other Great Dao Emperors in the company arrived, at which point everything would be resolved.

The chase and escape continued for three days in the blink of an eye. Yi Shuihan had great stamina and could run for thousands or tens of thousands of years without any problem.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Yi Shuihan felt the puppet behind him stop. He turned around and saw the puppet's angry eyes.

"Why did you stop? Keep going! This game is actually quite fun."

Yi Shuihan said in a strange tone.

The puppet did not respond, and in the next instant it teleported in front of Yi Shuihan. Before Yi Shuihan could react, there was a huge explosion.

The explosion was so powerful that its range extended to tens of millions of kilometers. It was only because there were no living worlds around that it could easily destroy an entire world.

"Cough...cough..."

The explosion lasted for several minutes, and when it dissipated, Yi Shuihan appeared in the void in a disheveled state.

"I was really careless. I shouldn't have stopped. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been tricked. But to just self-destruct like that, you really think highly of me. You're decisive enough."

Previously, he couldn't catch up with Yi Shuihan. The last teleportation he used was a special method, not an ordinary teleportation that could be used at will. Using teleportation in the chaotic void requires a certain delay. Each use requires preparation, and there is also a cooldown time after use. With that time, Yi Shuihan could even increase the distance. This is also the reason why the Poison Heart Emperor didn't use teleportation before.

The fluctuations caused by teleportation are too great. Yi Shuihan can even lock onto the opponent's teleportation location in advance to avoid it, so it's better to just fly.

The reason the puppet was able to get so close to Yi Shuihan was twofold: firstly, Yi Shuihan stopped, and secondly, it used a suicidal teleportation technique. This technique was much faster than a normal teleportation, and it was precisely because it was a suicidal teleportation that it exploded immediately after teleporting.

The self-destruction of a Creation Dao cultivator is incredibly powerful, capable of easily taking down an ordinary Creation Dao cultivator, and even a third-tier Creation Dao cultivator would be severely injured.

In the eyes of the Poison Heart Emperor, Yi Shuihan must be a third-level Creation Dao cultivator, so he did not think that this would kill Yi Shuihan. The reason he did this was partly because he was angry, and partly to destroy the evidence. As long as the puppet was gone, he would never have come to the Great World of Destiny.

Was Yi Shuihan seriously injured? Yes, he was. However, thanks to the power of the system, he can recover quickly. He will be fully recovered in a few years at most, which is much better than other cultivators who need hundreds of millions of years to heal.

Yi Shuihan didn't run in a straight line, but in circles. He's not far from the World of Destiny now, which will only take Fei Ge a few tens of minutes.

Before Yi Shuihan could even reach the Great World of Destiny, he encountered a Great Dao Emperor on the way. This Great Dao Emperor was also the reason why the Poison Heart Emperor Puppet suddenly chose to self-destruct.

"You're injured? Who did this? Was it that Poison Heart guy?"

"Yes, sir, it was caused by the self-destruction of his puppet avatar. He almost didn't survive."

Yi Shuihan still looks quite disheveled, and his breathing is very disordered. He doesn't need to pretend to be miserable; he's already miserable enough.

"The Emperor of Illusion and Reality, a ruthless character. To be able to alarm him, it seems the company values ​​me quite a bit!"

Yi Shuihan recognized the Great Dao Emperor in front of him at a glance, not only because he had learned about the company's Great Dao Emperor before, but also because this person was very famous.

The Void and Reality Emperor possesses the Void and Reality Great Dao, making him a formidable figure among the Great Dao Emperors. He ranks among the top three Great Dao Emperors in the company, while the Poison Heart Emperor is only around the top ten.

"Tell me what happened in detail."

The Emperor of Illusion and Reality looked slightly grim, not at Yi Shuihan, but at the Emperor of Poisonous Heart.

"Here's what happened. I represented the company in the battle for ownership of the Great World of Destiny, and by a stroke of luck, we won, gaining the right to spread the Dao for billions of years. After that, the Little Poison King suddenly came to my door asking me to give him the position. I refused, and he left in anger, and then..."

Yi Shuihan did not embellish the story; he simply stated the facts as they were. Firstly, there was no need for it, and secondly, it was difficult to lie in front of a Great Dao Emperor, and he might not even be able to deceive the Emperor of Illusion and Truth.

Can you guarantee that everything you say is true?

“I can swear if necessary.”

"Can you provide evidence?"

"No evidence."

"Alright, I will investigate this matter. If it is true, the company will give you an explanation. I will keep an eye on Poison Heart for the time being. Here is my contact card. Take it and contact me if anything happens."

The Emperor of Illusion and Reality finally followed Yi Shuihan to the Great World of Struggle for Destiny. He used some exploration methods in the Great World of Struggle for Destiny and left after staying for less than a day.

Yi Shuihan did not leave the Great World of Struggle for Fate. He did not want to give up such a good place for spreading his teachings. On the one hand, he continued to spread his teachings, and on the other hand, he recovered from his injuries and waited for news from the company.

Chapter 1463: Know all about the imprint

In fact, Yi Shuihan didn't think he could do anything to Poison Heart Emperor this time. After all, the other party's strength was undeniable. He was a high-ranking executive in the company, much more important to the company than Yi Shuihan, who had just founded the Dao. In addition, Poison Heart Emperor had been with the company longer than Yi Shuihan. He was a veteran and had some supporters.

The Poisonous Heart Emperor decisively self-destructed his puppet, thus erasing evidence against him. As long as he insisted that he had not come to compete for the Great World of Fortune, the company could not force him to commit a crime.

Indeed, the matter of dealing with the Poison Heart Emperor has not been decided yet, and it seems that the matter will be minimized and eventually forgotten.

Even though the Reality and Illusion Emperor knew that the Poison Heart Emperor was acting strangely, he only gave the Poison Heart Emperor a few warnings, punished the Little Poison Emperor, and confined him to his quarters. He did not cause any substantial damage to the Poison Heart Emperor.

If things continue like this, the Poison Heart Emperor might come looking for him again in a few years, which could ruin Yi Shuihan's plans in the Great World of Destiny.

In order to buy time, and considering that he had almost completely broken ties with the Poison Heart Emperor, Yi Shuihan revealed the matter of the Poison Heart Emperor's brand.

Over the years, Ye Dongsheng and his team haven't been idle; they've uncovered many people suspected of being branded and compiled a long list.

The matter of the branding spread from Chaos City and quickly spread throughout the myriad realms, becoming the latest headline event in the myriad realms.

The Poison Heart Emperor's influence extends to various powerful forces. Naturally, these forces would not ignore the matter of the branding and would thoroughly investigate the people on the list. Once they discovered that the branding was indeed present, the various forces united and challenged the company, demanding that it hand over the Poison Heart Emperor.

The Poison Heart Emperor became a figure hated by everyone, and even he, as a Great Dao Emperor, could not withstand it.

After internal discussions, the company issued a public announcement expelling the Poison Heart Emperor from the company and intending to permanently seal and suppress him.

While the company was on its way to capture the Poison Heart Emperor, the Poison Heart Emperor suddenly erupted, breaking free from the encirclement of the two Great Dao Emperors and finally disappearing.

The Poison Heart Emperor escaped, but the Little Poison King did not, becoming the target of everyone's venting. If it weren't for the fact that he could still serve as bait, he would probably have been killed. However, even though he didn't die, living was more painful than dying, as he endured torture from everyone every day.

Just when Yi Shuihan thought he would be entering a period of calm, an unexpected change occurred.

The branded individuals, controlled by the Poison Heart Emperor, launched a terrorist attack, and many forces were subjected to self-destructive attacks.

"If you don't want me to continue, hand over Yi Shuihan, otherwise none of those who have been branded will survive."

Logically speaking, such a threat would not receive support; agreeing to it would be tantamount to bowing down to the Poisonous Heart Emperor.

At first, no one agreed to this ridiculous request, but as time went by, one suicide after another took the place of innocent victims, and the tide gradually turned.

"Hand over Yi Shuihan! It's worth it to exchange his life for the lives of many others."

"Although it's a bit unfair to Yi Shuihan, this is the only way to minimize the losses. Even if he dies, all the heavens and the myriad worlds will remember him; he will be a hero."

"It's better for one person to die than for countless people to die."

What made Yi Shuihan feel gratified was that, even when everyone was clamoring for him to take the blame, the company still gave him its full support and withstood the external pressure.

In particular, the Emperor of Reality and Illusion contacted Yi Shuihan multiple times, telling him to relax and not to feel pressured, assuring him that they would handle the external affairs.

If Yi Shuihan had no way to remove the brand, he would naturally have no choice but to wait for his death and place his hopes on the company. But since he has a way to remove the brand, the situation is naturally different.

Although removing the brand was not an easy task for Yi Shuihan, he was still willing to use his own strength to reduce some of the pressure on the company.

The news that Yi Shuihan could remove the brand did not spread to everyone immediately. After all, if the Poison Heart Emperor found out, he might just order all the branded people to self-destruct, which would result in huge losses.

Removing the brand could only be done secretly. Yi Shuihan first carried out the removal of the brand within the company, and then contacted those forces that were close to the company.

One by one, those branded were brought before Yi Shuihan for the branding to be removed. The outside world was completely unaware of this, and on the surface, the clamoring voices continued to demand that the company hand over Yi Shuihan.

"That Poison Heart Emperor is really cunning; he's got quite a few people on his radar!"

Having successfully removed another brand, Yi Shuihan recalled the recent days and felt an intense, burning hatred for the Poison Heart Emperor.

These days, Yi Shuihan has been living a 24-hour non-stop life, removing branding marks without taking a break unless the work becomes too exhausting.

Yi Shuihan has already removed hundreds of marks, but that's only half of the total number. There are still hundreds more waiting for him to remove.

Adding those who had already died, there were over three hundred Chaos Emperors controlled by the Poison Heart Emperor. This number was simply outrageous; it's truly baffling how the Poison Heart Emperor managed to do it.

Of course, besides the Chaos Emperor, there are many more below the Chaos Emperor, too many to count. However, only those of particularly high status are sent to Yi Shuihan.

Yi Shuihan was quite lucky. Before the Poison Heart Emperor discovered it, he removed 80% of the Chaos Emperor's mark. The best 20% was naturally the result of a suicidal attack under the Poison Heart Emperor's orders, which plunged the myriad realms into chaos.

Without the threat of the brand, the Poison Heart Emperor could no longer coerce Yi Shuihan into handing her over, and thus Yi Shuihan was left in peace.

When Yi Shuihan learned of the threat posed by the Poison Heart Emperor, he was surprised that the Poison Heart Emperor didn't use it to blackmail and rescue the Little Poison Emperor. Later, after the explanation from the Illusionary Reality Emperor, he realized that the Poison Heart Emperor was afraid of being found out. Unlike Yi Shuihan, the Little Poison Emperor could kill Yi Shuihan and run away, but unless he killed the Little Poison Emperor directly, the methods left on him would expose him, or at least lock him down for a period of time.

Chapter 1464, Cultivating a Portable World

Millions of years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Yi Shuihan's preaching in the Great World of Destiny has basically come to an end. At this time, the Great World of Destiny may no longer be worthy of the name, because the mainstream cultivation path in the Great World of Destiny is to comprehend Yi Shuihan's Dao.

"Now that I'm no longer needed to be here in person, it's time to go explore other worlds."

A world that has undergone seven great calamities has allowed Yi Shuihan to take a giant leap on the path to becoming a Great Dao Emperor, and his strength is now much greater than it was a million years ago.

Leaving behind a mental avatar, Yi Shuihan quietly departed from the World of Destiny Struggle.

Afterwards, Yi Shuihan went to the first few worlds assigned to him by the company and easily expanded the scope of his teachings. Hundreds of thousands of years later, Yi Shuihan continued to find worlds where he could spread his teachings, based on information from his sect.

He found a world, then spread his teachings, and after spreading them, he went to find a new world to spread them to. This process repeated itself, and the traces of Yi Shuihan's Dao left in all the heavens and myriad worlds became more and more obvious.

In a nameless world,

"Respectfully bidding farewell to the Daoist Master"

Countless living beings knelt before the figure in the central void, watching with reverence as the figure slowly disappeared, remaining kneeling even after the figure vanished.

"Which world is this? Is it the 24th or the 25th? In the blink of an eye, another tens of millions of years have passed. At this rate, it will take at least a billion years to become a Great Dao Emperor."

Yi Shuihan looked at the world that had been stained with his colors and sighed.

As a Dao Creator with strength approaching that of a half-step Great Dao Emperor, Yi Shuihan's path to Dao Creation was incredibly smooth. Those Dao Creators who competed with him for worlds were no match for him. All he needed to do was find a suitable world and then spread his teachings.

The worlds that Yi Shuihan takes a liking to are at least great worlds that have undergone more than four great calamities. Such worlds are extremely rare in the myriad realms, and even those that are already owned are generally not easy for Yi Shuihan to seize, since such great worlds may represent a power similar to a company.

There are practically no independent cultivators in the world of creation; at the very least, they all find a force with a Great Dao Emperor to attach themselves to, otherwise it would be extremely difficult to seize a suitable world.

Of course, there are countless worlds in the heavens and myriad realms, and worlds are even being born every moment. However, there are only a few worlds suitable for creating and spreading the Dao. The main reason is that those small worlds may perish in a very short time.

The world is not eternal. The more powerful a world is, the longer it can exist. Smaller worlds often disappear after existing for tens of millions of years. The worlds needed to break through to the Great Dao Emperor level are calculated in terms of hundreds of billions of years or even longer. Spreading the Dao to worlds that have existed for less than hundreds of billions of years is likely a waste of time.

Some founders have remained stagnant because the worlds they spread their teachings to have perished. Their pace of spreading their teachings is slower than the worlds' demise, which can even lead to a decline in their strength.

The worlds that Yi Shuihan chose were all worlds that could develop for hundreds of billions of years under natural conditions, and he was confident that he could successfully reach the Great Dao Emperor level during this period, so he basically didn't need to worry about the world's demise.

Besides the natural demise of the world, another point to note is the destruction of the world by external forces. For example, if Yi Shuihan were to actively destroy a great world, even a world vying for destiny could be destroyed. In that case, it would be useless for others to spread their teachings in a world vying for destiny.

To prevent the world from being destroyed by external forces and thus causing the loss of the Creation and propagation of the Way, generally speaking, worlds marked by the Creation Way are not allowed to be destroyed by other Creation Ways. Once destroyed, they will be jointly resisted by other Creation Ways in all the heavens and myriad worlds.

……

"It's almost time to welcome the fifth immeasurable eon."

With a thought, Yi Shuihan triggered the evolution of his personal world, and the fifth immeasurable calamity began to descend.

Yi Shuihan has always valued his personal world. After all, compared to other worlds, this personal world can be said to be his foundation. Once he can cultivate his personal world, his strength will be improved, and he can directly become a Great Dao Emperor after passing the Ninth Boundless Tribulation.

With Yi Shuihan's current strength, he could easily help his portable world survive seven immeasurable tribulations. He was 20% confident about the eighth immeasurable tribulation. Once he successfully survived all eight immeasurable tribulations, his strength would be comparable to that of a Great Dao Emperor. After all, his portable world was portable, so no matter where he was, it was equivalent to being in this world.

The immeasurable calamity is not so easy to control; it requires a certain amount of time to brew. Otherwise, Yi Shuihan would have already passed through all seven immeasurable calamities, instead of it taking tens of millions of years to reach the fifth immeasurable calamity.

Each immeasurable calamity represents endless killing intent, and even Yi Shuihan, as the master of his personal world, cannot smoothly let the immeasurable calamity pass by.

In the previous four immeasurable calamities, more than half of the experts in their respective worlds perished each time. If Yi Shuihan hadn't been watching them closely, even Su Men and the others would have almost been swept up in it.

The fifth immeasurable calamity is a struggle for the throne. During this calamity, a supreme treasure of heaven and earth will be born. Once obtained, one can gain power comparable to a Chaos Emperor. Of course, this power is only effective in Yi Shuihan's personal world.

The throne was naturally predetermined by Yi Shuihan and given to his own woman. However, in order to obtain this position, she needed to make a trip to the Boundless Tribulation. Even the predetermined position had to go through a formality, just like the Journey to the West in the Primordial Continent, where a Journey to the West was necessary for the flourishing of Buddhism.

The storyline for Yi Shuihan is similar: a world tour where anyone who wants to compete for the treasure can make a move, as long as they can snatch it.

Even though they know that seizing the treasure is a life-or-death struggle, some people will still risk it to do so, because during the immeasurable calamity, beings can easily be bewitched and activate their brain-dead aura.

Under the halo of idiocy, these people's thinking becomes incredibly idiotic, and they do all sorts of things that would be impossible in normal times. Even Yi Shuihan has difficulty controlling them and needs to keep a close eye on them at all times. Otherwise, if they are not controlled properly, it will lead to a world war that will shatter the world. At that time, they will not be able to survive the immeasurable calamity, and the world may be destroyed.

Chapter 1465, Dongming Achieves the Great Dao Emperor

With a Daoist chant, the malevolent energy of heaven and earth dissipated, and all the beings who had been immersed in the Great Tribulation felt a sudden clarity in their minds, recalling their state during this period with a sense of lingering fear.

"Damn it, what have I been thinking these past few years! Why have I done such stupid things that I almost got myself killed?"

"He did something stupid again. Hey, why do I say 'again'?"

"The immeasurable calamity has finally passed, and I can start improving my cultivation again."

Under Yi Shuihan's control, the immeasurable calamity was successfully overcome, with few casualties. Moreover, most of those who died were heinous criminals, and ordinary beings were not greatly affected.

Having survived countless eons, the origin of the world has become even stronger. The world around it has expanded rapidly, more than doubling in size in a short time, and will continue to expand at this rate for some time. Once it stabilizes, it will expand at least ten times before the eons have passed.
