Chapter 0847: The Great Destruction of Heaven and Earth

The massive army of the Eight Thunder Peng Clans, numbering hundreds of billions, lost nearly ten billion in the fierce battles against the Divine Kings, leaving ninety billion left.
Huang Long pondered for a moment before addressing the army of the Eight Thunder Peng Clans, “Your Divine Kings are dead. However, I won’t kill you. I will establish Longmen, and from now on, all of your clans will submit to Longmen and become its disciples!” Then, he formed spells with his hands, casting seals that entered the bodies of the ninety billion descendants of the Eight Thunder Peng Clans.
Suddenly, these ninety billion descendants felt a new restriction within them.
“Yes, Lord Huang Long!”
Their voices resounded across the sky.
Although some of their descendants were unwilling, they had no choice but to submit.
Even ants strive to survive—let alone them!
Huang Long nodded and then summoned the Immortal Pavilion, bringing all ninety billion descendants inside. As soon as they entered, the pavilion was filled to capacity.
The ninety billion descendants continuously poured out their willpower, further refining the Immortal Pavilion.
“Brother Huang Long, since everything here is settled, let’s head back first!” said Temi, the leader of the Pattern Tiger Clan, along with Roen, the leader of the Sky-Devouring Python Clan, and several other Divine Kings.
Huang Long bowed in return, “I am deeply grateful for your help. These divine artifacts are just a small token of my appreciation.”
Each of them received an immortal artifact equivalent to a Hongmeng Spirit Treasure.
“Please, don’t mention it!” Temi and the others were overjoyed and quickly said, “Brother Huang Long is the chosen successor by the Hongmeng Holy King. We will rely on you in the future!”
After exchanging a few polite words, they accepted the immortal artifacts “given” by Huang Long and left.
Ock and Livia, however, stayed behind.
Huang Long ordered Lus, Perkin, and Nithel to clean up the scene, then returned to the Hall of Heluo Mountain with Ock and Livia. Once inside, he released Pili Dragon, Thunder Beast, Huang Liang, Huang Yi, Huang Xiong, Zhao Rong, and others from the Holy Cauldron.
“Second brother, please save Yi Feng!” Huang Yi cried to Huang Long as soon as she emerged, tears streaming down her face.
Huang Long sighed and said, “Brother Yi Feng’s soul has scattered. It’s difficult to save him.”
What Huang Long said was true. Saint Buri had crushed Li Yi Feng to pieces, and the power of the Thunder Divine King had destroyed him completely; his soul had long since dispersed. If not for that, saving Li Yi Feng wouldn’t have been hard.
During their time in the Netherworld, Li Yi Feng had shared hardships with him. Even without Huang Yi’s intervention, Huang Long would have saved him.
Hearing this, Huang Yi’s tears flowed even more abundantly. “Second brother, is there really no way?!”

“Fourth sister, Second Brother only said it’s difficult to save Brother Li Yifeng, not that it’s impossible!” Huang Liang said at this moment. Amidst the chaos of concern, he understood the meaning behind Huang Long’s words. Huang Yi couldn’t help but stare intently at Huang Long. Huang Long nodded and said, “Although Brother Yifeng’s soul has scattered, once I achieve the status of the Immortal Hunyuan Sage, I can use my supreme power to alter the cycle of rebirth, allowing Brother Yifeng to reunite his soul, rebuild his body, and be revived!” In fact, there was another method—the World Tree! If the World Tree could return to its prime, Huang Long could also use it to revive Li Yifeng. However, restoring the World Tree to its prime was extremely difficult! Even more so than achieving the status of the Immortal Hunyuan Sage! Because among the vast number of worlds and infinite universes, finding the other parts of the World Tree was like searching for a needle in a haystack. “Really, Second Brother! So now that you’re at the peak of the quasi-sage level, achieving the status of the Immortal Hunyuan Sage isn’t far off?!” Huang Yi asked joyfully, breaking into a smile after hearing that Huang Long could save Li Yifeng by achieving sagehood. Huang Long smiled bitterly and said, “Girl, do you think achieving the status of an immortal sage is that easy?! If it were, there would be saints everywhere in the Hongmeng World!” “Indeed, although Young Master Huang Long has obtained the Heavenly Earth Sacred Cauldron, which allows him to open its inner space and practice the laws of the Hongmeng Great King’s path, achieving the status of a great king remains very difficult! The Hongmeng Great King was born countless eras ago in the boundless universe, comprehending the laws of the Hongmeng path before finally achieving sagehood!” said Ok, the clan leader of the Phantom Clan, who was standing by. “Ok, you consider me your young master? Eras? What’s going on?” Huang Long asked. Livia, Huoyang, Pili Long, and the others also looked at Ok in confusion. Ok smiled and said, “Actually, back then, I was just a pill-making apprentice under the Hongmeng Great King! Since you’ve obtained the Heavenly Earth Sacred Cauldron, the Hongmeng Great King once said that whoever unites the two sacred cauldrons will be his designated successor. That’s why I consider you my young master!” “What?! A pill-making apprentice under the Hongmeng Great King!” Livia, Huoyang, and the others all stared at Ok in shock. Ok’s identity was mysterious; in the Hongmeng Realm, it was said that he was a shadow of the Hongmeng Great King. Even the other god kings like Livia thought Ok was related to the Hongmeng Great King. They never expected him to be just a pill-making apprentice under him!

“Not bad!” Oak nodded. “As for eras, I learned about them from Master Hongmeng Sacred King. After a certain number ofYuan Ji pass, there will be a great destruction of heaven and earth, with the decline of humans and gods, and almost all life in the universe perishing. Then, new life and new civilizations emerge in the universe. Each such great destruction is called an era!”
“What? Great destruction of heaven and earth, decline of humans and gods!” Livia, Huoyang, and the others changed expressions in shock.
Although Livia and Huoyang were Divine Kings, they had never heard of such things either.
Oak said, “That’s right. OneYuan Ji is 60 trillion years, while one era consists of dozens or even hundreds ofYuan Ji!”
Huang Long was also shocked.
Back when Pangu was one of the twelve Golden Immortals under Yuan Shi, he hadn’t heard Yuan Shi mention any of this either.
It seemed he had truly been living in a bubble.
“Great destruction of heaven and earth, decline of heaven and earth—can anyone other than the saints survive it?!” Huang Long asked thoughtfully.
Everyone looked at Oak.
If that was the case, did it mean that everyone present except Huang Long would die in the great destruction?!
Oak said solemnly, “Saints possess immortal bodies and have comprehended the Great Dao; their souls are rooted in the Great Dao, so they are naturally unaffected by the great destruction. However, it’s not only saints who can survive such destruction. Some semi-saints with the Hunyuan Immortal Body can as well!”
Semi-saints can too?!
Everyone’s hearts sank again!
Semi-saints—how difficult!
Oak continued, “Although semi-saints can survive the great destruction, it’s not certain. There are differences in strength among semi-saints, and the stronger they are, the greater their chance of avoiding destruction!”
Everyone’s hearts sank even further.
Huang Long also frowned.
“Did Master Hongmeng Sacred King say how much longer before this era will reach its destruction?!” Huang Long asked.
