Ren Hong walked among the floods.

The raging floodwater automatically separated when it approached Ren Hong. He looked at the corpses floating in the water with a complicated expression.

At this moment, there was no so-called distinction between humans and monsters. The corpses of all living things flowed with the flood, rushing towards the ocean from west to east.

Ren Hong once suspected that the great flood was caused by the demon god named Gonggong. He also suspected that the flood might be caused by something happened to Tianque in the northwest.

But when he actually walked into the flood, he truly understood that this flood was not man-made at all, it was a completely natural disaster. It was a mechanism created by the world itself, specifically to destroy Shennong VIII.

"This...is destiny?"

Ren Hong descended from the sky and happened to land near Mount Heng.

Climbing Beiyue, he saw a few remaining immortals on the top of the mountain. The three immortals' guardian spirits were dim, their hair was gray, and their bodies were stinking, and their Taoist fruits were also facing collapse.

"Failing calamity?"

When the three immortals saw Ren Hong, they looked surprised.

"Emperor, are you back?"

Gouchen Shenting has been in power for five hundred years. Although the emperor has ascended to the upper world, his name has spread far and wide, and the three immortals naturally recognize his Gouchen Daoguang.

Seeing him walking from the flood, another immortal said in surprise: "Emperor, can you walk from the flood?"

The flood is filled with the power of Tao Tribulation, which is designed to defeat the bodies of immortals and demons.

"I have the blessing of Gou Chen's divine power, and I am not afraid of any disaster." Ren Hong stared at some strange scars on the bodies of the three immortals, and used the magical power of Liuhe to treat them.

"What happened in the world and why is there such a calamity?"

"I don't know." An immortal family wondered: "Originally, there was a flood in the human world, and the gods of Gouchen Shenting felt it, so they went down to suppress the flood and save the world. But for some reason, the power of these gods disappeared in the flood, and finally

Flooded."

"Kunlun Headmaster Ren Kui heard the news and quickly called on all the immortals in the world to control the flood. But this flood was very strange. To mortals, it was just an ordinary flood. But to us gods, demons, immortals and Buddhas, it was a highly poisonous thing.

We were implicated during flood control, our magic power weakened, our avenues decayed, and many of our colleagues directly reincarnated."

Ren Hong was silent and looked up at the sky.

He saw the calamity stele appearing in the sky. The seventh scale on the stele lost its luster and was covered with collapsed cracks. At the same time, the fragments of the upper scales began to fall.

There are twelve levels of tribulations in this universe, either natural disasters or man-made disasters. Each level of tribulation will target immortals and mortals. As long as they do not attain Maharaja, they will be completely destroyed.

"Looking at it this way, is the disaster of the emperor in the past the disaster of Emperor Taihao?"

Ren Hong's heart was complicated. The Dao Seal in his hand appeared, and Gouchen Daluotian appeared behind him.

"You enter my Daluo Heaven to avoid disaster for the time being."

The three immortals breathed a sigh of relief, quickly gave up their physical bodies, and used the Yuan Shen Dao Fruit to get into Da Luo Tian. In an instant, their immortal bodies turned into ashes.

The red and black calamity ashes flew into the flood and disappeared along the water.

Ren Hong continued to move forward, looking for the remaining living beings in the world.

But the Immortal Family cannot protect itself, let alone mortals and animals?

During this journey, Ren Hong only saved a hundred surviving fellow immortals.

Finally, he came to Huaxu Mountain.

The Emperor's Pavilion is shrouded in a layer of five-color auspicious light, and the mist aura resists flood erosion and shields the power of Tao tribulation.

Ren Hong stared at Xiangguang with a look of shock on his face.

"it turns out--"

He quickly walked into Huaxu Mountain and saw some injured mortals being treated under the protection of the disciples of Tianhuang Pavilion.

"Ordinary people from the Lianshan Dynasty?"

Moreover, there are many direct descendants of Lieshan.

"Will the Feng family save the Jiang family?"

What a funny scene. Two human races have been entangled for thousands of years. Unexpectedly, they finally reconciled in this catastrophe and joined hands to deal with the catastrophe.

But... it's too late.

"You're back after all."

Suddenly, Jiao Xu's voice came from behind.

Ren Hong turned his head and saw Jiao Xu's right sleeve floating, leaving only one left arm.

"What are you..."

"I overestimated my capabilities and tried to confront Dao Jie, but in the end even Daluo's immortal body was injured."

"What about him?"

They both have emotional roots, and they also feel their own emotional fluctuations. But Su Jun's emotional roots are more consistent with Ji Qingyuan's.

"He..." Jiao Xu looked at Ren Hong's expression and couldn't continue.

This was the first time he had seen Ren Hong's current expression.

Even when Zhuan Yu shed tears for Fairy Mu Li, there was only a hint of sadness on his face, and he had never shown such grief.

"I know. He sacrificed his life to save these mortals. It was... forced by the teacher... right?"

"That's right." Jiao Xu raised his head and looked at Jiutian Qingming.

The floods raged across the world, and the sky was covered with haze for nine days, making it impossible to see the sun.

"Back then, the leader took action and suppressed all the monks in the world to be promoted to Daluo. Naturally, he was no exception."

"This great flood disaster was unexpected by both you and me. But Kunlun Mountain has many treasures you left behind. They started organizing rescues half a year ago and brought some mortals and male-female animals into Kunlun."

"But... there are too many mortals in the world. Kunlun can't save him at all."

"So, Su Jun sacrificed his life to protect these mortals?" Ren Hong's eyes flashed with cold light as he looked at the Lieshan tribesmen not far away.

Although Ren Hong is also a supporter of the merger of the two human races, but when it comes to his feelings for these mortals...

Sorry, in his heart, Su Jun is more important than these mortals. If he hadn't known that Su Jun would never come back even if he killed them, he really wanted to do it.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Ren Hong said in a deep voice: "Where is he? I'll go see him."

"Come with me." Jiao Xu led Ren Hong towards the back mountain.

Halfway through, Ren Hong remembered something: "Where is Tianyue? As the master of the Emperor's Pavilion, is this guy okay?"

"All immortal families in the world have entered a period of decline and their magic power has faded. Feng Tianyue is no exception. He is currently in retreat in the palace. He...he is more down-to-earth than Su Jun."

The Dao Tribulation is a preview of the destruction of the universe for all existences below Daluo. However, immortals with profound Taoism or people with profound blessings are expected to gain a glimmer of hope and survive the Dao Tribulation and enter the next calamity.

Be it Feng Tianyue or Su Jun, they all have this opportunity.

It's a pity that Su Jun couldn't bear the suffering of the common people in the world, so he forcibly broke through the barrier and used his body to protect some mortals into Huaxu Mountain.

"Tian Yue has a pure heart, but he has a very open mind about life and death. As for Su Jun..." Ren Hong smiled bitterly: "He can't bear to see our descendants suffer, right?"

Zhuan Yu is, after all, the ancestor of the human race, and his bloodline is spread widely throughout the world.

As the reincarnation of Zhuan Yu, Su Jun would naturally not give up his descendants.

Walking to a cave in the back mountain, Ren Hong stopped and looked coldly at the skeleton sitting in front of the cave.

"He...he..." Ren Hong said in a trembling voice, "Why is there no flesh and blood body left?"

"What do you think of this flood in the world?"

"The flood contains the Innate Dao, which can damage the immortal body..." Ren Hong frowned and seemed to understand.

Jiao Xu looked at the golden skeleton in front of him with a sad expression.

"Kunlun sacrificed seven treasures, causing the seven peaks of the Hidden Immortal to turn into seven small worlds. Using these small worlds as rafts, he rescued a group of creatures from the human world. That was the trump card left by the leader Yuqing to Kunlun before he ascended."

"The Beidou Sect took Ji Chen's warning earlier and turned the Nine Emperors City into a dam. They also used the remains of Ji Chen's Taoist body as the formation's eyes, and also protected a group of mortals."

"But-but what does Su Jun have? He saves people from the flood."

The power of the Taoist Tribulation contained in the flood has no harm to mortals, but it can only restrain immortals and demons. Su Jun rushed into the water to save people again and again, and the power of the Taoist Tribulation was like a bone-scraping steel knife, scraping off his flesh and blood bit by bit.

.

Ren Hong looked at Jiao Xu's right arm.

Even the Great Luo Immortal Body can't withstand the flood disaster, let alone Su Jun?

He stumbled to the front of the skeleton,

The flesh and blood on the skull's face was also destroyed by Dao Jie, and Su Jun's expression before his death could not be seen.

Ren Hong reached out and approached the skeleton, but stopped when he was about to touch it.

He took his hand back, as if he was still alive as long as he didn't confirm it.

At this time, Ren Hong saw one arm of the skeleton hanging down on the ground, and there were two lines of words next to the phalanges.

"Sacrifice my life to become your great road."
