Chapter 57 - Background

Inside of Ye Yanrui, the demonic core rapidly rotated exerting a powerful gravitational pull on the surrounding immortal Qi. The Qi rushed into Ye Yanrui's blood imbibing each cell with immortal Qi that surpassed any imagining.

His blood turned white and heavy as the drops of liquid qi went through his meridians. Every drop of energy remained conserved and contained in his body. As the demon core revolved a part of its essence would dissipate and leave his body.

The originally white aura became accompanied by dark shadows shading across his body. Ye Yanrui's face and figure became completely obscured by the white light and dark shadows across his body. He looked as though he had become a divinity, invisible to mortal kind.

Ye Tian watched as Ye Yanrui's aura constantly evolved and gritted his teeth as he angrily shouted: "A Demon Core... you ignorant child. Do you know what you have done?"

Ye Yanrui's cold radiant eyes shined through the shadows and light, and with his cold gaze piercing into Ye Tian's body he said: "Shut up..."

Before Ye Tian could respond, Ye Yanrui's body flashed into a white beam and instantly appeared in front of him. Ye Yanrui gripped his fist and released his immortal Qi, the intense Qi set off nomological powers as a white dragon coiled around his arm.

Ye Yanrui punched out with the divine dragon flying off his fist as one, the divine dragon slammed into Ye Tian's face before he could respond.

BOOM!

The power of the fist exploded into the sky releasing a divine dragon into the firmament. The immortal Qi blasted into the horizon as Ye Tian's body recoiled from the shock. He reeled from the shock as he lost his footing in the air and fell to his knees barely stabilizing his flight.

"Pfftt." He gripped his chest in pain as he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood and through a blurry and distorted vision he stared at Ye Yanrui across from him.

Ye Yanrui stood on the air calmly as white dragons ascended from his body towards the heavens. The divine sight filled Ye Tian with a sense of excitement at fighting such a foe.

"You're weak..." Ye Yanrui coldly intoned with his cold blue gaze.

"I wasn't so weak when I killed your woman." Ye Tian smiled and stood up wiping the blood from the side of his mouth.

The floral pattern in Ye Yanrui's eyes suddenly constricted and the demon core in his body revolved even faster.

"Haaa... you..." Ye Yanrui growled as anger filled his body "I will kill you."

Ye Yanrui's body flashed once again leaving only a trail of immortal Qi as his form disappeared and reappeared in front of Ye Tian.

"White Dragon Flash!" He roared as he punched out releasing a sky rending white dragon the size of a mountain. The gigantic dragon roared as it opened its mouth to engulf Ye Tian's entire body.

Even with the divine white dragon coming down on him, Ye Tian stood tall with his hands held behind his back. He closed his eyes and recited without a care:

"Ye of the Bloodline,

Who pursue my truth,

Hear my ancient name.

From time immemorial,

I have existed.

A specter,

No longer the same.

I have existed,

And this is your end."

Suddenly Ye Tian's eyes flashed open but this time they were empty! His body started to meta morph and as a violet aura burst from his body. His legs grew smaller, his robes shrunk and turned violet as the Qi wrapped around him.

In a few moments, Ye Tian became the size of a small boy with childish violet robes. You wouldn't suspect the boy of being anything scary, but one look into his empty cold eyes and you'd never return.

The little boy raised his left hand at the incoming white dragon, the dragon swallowed Ye Tian whole and released a sea of Qi within it.

The Qi burst out detonating into a sky-high explosion of immortal Qi, the intense ripples of the explosion transmitted to the ends of the world as the powerful Qi spewed onto the land.

Ye Yanrui flipped over his palm generating a barrier of Qi around him. The Qi fluctuations deflected off the barrier but Ye Yanrui was unconcerned instead he focused on the dissipating light in the sky.

He focused his gaze to see past all the white light. When suddenly he saw amidst the white light, a violet robed little boy.

His eyes clouded over as vivid memories passed through his head, he gritted his teeth almost grounding them up with the force of his anger as he stared down the little boy.

"You're finally out, you undying thing." Ye Yanrui angrily growled and gathered intense Qi in his body.

"Hmph!" The little boy snorted as he released a thin and wispy violet aura. Ye Yanrui punched out rapidly releasing a volley of white dragons, hundreds of white dragons ascended into the firmament as they lunged toward the little boy.

They each opened their maws up ready to consume the boy in one bite. But suddenly the Demon Core in Ye Yanrui body revolved faster and as it spun faster, a crack appeared across it. Ye Yanrui gripped his chest and started violently coughing until he spat up a mouthful of blood.

His body trembled intensely as the Demon Core increasingly cracked, he looked up at the little boy as the white dragons crashed into him all at once. The hundreds of dragons coiled and crashed into one another forming a massive ball of Qi and dragons.

The crashing forces rippled to the air, making even Ye Yanrui feel his body tremble from the force of the dragons colliding.

"Scram!" The little boy roared from amidst the coiling dragon, the wispy violet aura suddenly seethed with excitement.

The powerful Qi shot out without confines and exploded with power, the divine dragons coiled apart from the sheer force and went flying off in different directions.

BOOM!

All over the sky, all the way to the horizon the white dragons exploded into immortal Qi. Filling the heavens with resounding explosions worldwide. The immense Qi filled the sky with glittering white energies and streams of Qi all the way to distant lands.

Ye Yanrui's eyes filled with shock as he stared at the little boy. The small framed young child stood stalwart in the sky radiating a transcendental demeanor.

"Failure..." The little boy coldly said as he raised his left palm and gathered violet qi towards it. The Qi violently seethed as it coalesced in his palm into a tiny energy ball, the high-density ball of Qi radiated a dominating aura as it condensed more and more.

Ye Yanrui looked up at the little boy as the rift in power hit him all at once. To form the Demon Core, he combined his life Essence, Bloodline, and Qi with the power of the demon.

Doing so made it that his essence, bloodline, and qi are constantly being eroded. There was no way out of the situation and even with this demonic technique he would die, regardless of his hopes and dreams.

The little boy closed his left hand condensing the energy ball, in his closed palm violet lights shot out from the cracks surrounding him with a layer of violet Qi.

"Goodbye." The little boy said as he opened his palm, and instantly a violet flash filled the heavens. A gigantic celestial beam charged out of his hands eclipsing all the lights in the skies.

Ye Yanrui looked up as the violet beam came down on him threatening to engulf his entire being. He gritted his teeth as he decided on a dire matter!

Inside of his body, the demon core rapidly revolved as it released an incalculable amount of shadowy Qi. It's gravitational pull rapidly increased as it caved in on itself, the cracks along its surface shot up simultaneously.

"I'll just have to take you with me!" Ye Yanrui roared as the violet beam neared him and suddenly his demon core ruptured entirely.

From the massive crack in the center, a massive amount of demonic Qi shot out. The massive demonic Qi engulfed his entire body, wrapping him in a cocoon of complete darkness. As the cocoon formed, the violet beam came down completely engulfing Ye Yanrui.

The violet beam clashed against the black cocoon but couldn't pierce through, instead the energies split into two and deflected off into two different directions.

"Huh?" The little boy gasped as the violet beam crashed into the ground off in the distant. The energies exploded into a singularity that shook the earth's plates causing a rumble across the land.

"Originally I died at the hands of that violet beam." A voice echoed from within the black cocoon "But let's call this a re-imagining of events."

The black cocoon rippled off like ashes in the wind, and a black-haired and dark-eyed man walked out. His robes swayed like shadows as a wispy smoke like aura constantly generated around him. His dark eyes and cold expression were like a deep abyss that could devour any soul.

"What are you talking about?" The little boy replied as he pointed his shaking finger at the new opponent.

"Come on Belphegor, I haven't got all day." The dark-haired man sneered, this young man was none other than Ye Yuyan!

The little boy's eyes narrowed and suddenly his violet aura transformed changing into a dark green and sinister Qi. Completely unlike its previous immortal and royal counterpart, but keeping the same body of the little boy.

"A Blood Venerable, Moon Venerable, Demon Venerable, two bearers, and the Ye clan." Belphegor listed off probing for a response from Ye Yuyan. "To have the powers of all these Beings surpassing law... yet I can't imagine who you are."
