Sacred Emperor's Legacy Treasure
"I have long since passed away in the flow of time, and this brief revival cannot accomplish anything. This is merely a gamble!" the Sun Sacred Emperor sighed. "If it succeeds, I will be overjoyed; if it fails, there is nothing I can do!"
His voice revealed a deep sense of helplessness.
The true Sun Sacred Emperor died long ago; he was merely a divine thought left behind after a brief resurrection, with limited power, only able to make limited arrangements, and mostly "taking a gamble."
Since it's gambling, there will definitely be wins and losses, and it even depends on things like probability, which are beyond our control.
"This junior is willing to work hard to combat the Dark Turmoil!" Zhou Tong promptly declared.
"However, since this era is the Lifetime predicted by emperors and sovereigns throughout the ages, Lifetime will be an unprecedentedly brilliant Lifetime. Even if I have absolute confidence in myself, I may not be able to withstand some tricks from the Ghost Realm, let alone the emperors and sovereigns' backup plans!" Zhou Tong looked at the Sun Sacred Emperor, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
The Sun Sacred Emperor glanced at Zhou Tong Zhou Tong instantly understood his thoughts.
With a casual wave of his hand, the coffin beside him opened, and a golden scroll flew out from it.
The scroll gleamed with golden light, engraved with countless ancient and mysterious Great Dao Runes, like a profound universe, or the Great Dao itself, containing endless killing intent.
"This is... Array Diagram? A complete Great Emperor Formation Diagram?" Zhou Tong stared at the golden Divine Diagram, as if he had thought of something, and suddenly looked up at the Sun Sacred Emperor.
The Sun Sacred Emperor shouldn't have such a thing, otherwise, during the Dark Turmoil in the original story, when the Sun Sacred Emperor briefly revived, and with the help of the Great Emperor Formation Diagram Imperial Weapon, he could have completely killed the Light and Dark Supreme.
Could it be a formation Array Diagram that he temporarily crafted after the last brief revival in order to deal with possible Dark Turmoil?
Zhou Tong remembered that the Sun Sacred Emperor seemed to have said to himself that he wanted to prepare some contingency plan to deal with the darkness in this Lifetime. Could it be this Great Emperor Formation Diagram?
"Unfortunately, due to time constraints during the last revival, we were unable to maximize the power of this diagram! No Formation Spirit was born within the Array Diagram!" The Sun Sacred Emperor shook his head, somewhat dissatisfied with the power of this Array Diagram.
If Array Diagram doesn't give rise to Formation Spirit, then the formation is a "dead" formation, with almost no room for change. Only formations that give rise to Formation Spirit can be considered truly comparable to, or even stronger than, Imperial Weapon.
"Even so, it is more than enough to protect you! However, this diagram was left to deal with the Dark Turmoil. Before that, you only have three chances to use it!" With a wave of his hand, the Sun Sacred Emperor sent the golden Array Diagram sinking into Zhou Tong's Wheel Sea.
"Your Saintly Emperor's virtue is beyond my comprehension!" Zhou Tong bowed to the Sun Sacred Emperor.
For Zhou Tong, even just three chances would be enough. Three uses of the complete Great Emperor Formation Diagram are almost equivalent to three strikes from the Great Emperor.
He could handle other crises that might involve Emperor-level threats entirely through his own strength and strategic planning.
If you use these three opportunities in situations where you absolutely cannot handle them, then it will be absolutely worthwhile.
"Please rest assured, Your Saintly Emperor, I will do my utmost to overcome the calamity that awaits us!" Zhou Tong replied in a deep voice.
"However, there is one more thing..." Zhou Tong looked at the Sun Sacred Emperor.
"What is it?" asked the Sun Sacred Emperor.
"The Path to Immortality in the Big Dipper is about to open, and many races sealed away since time Lifetime will awaken. However, most of the contingency plans left by our Human Great Emperor have been destroyed in the Dark Turmoil of past dynasties! If our human race is unable to resist the Ancient Races, then the entire human race of the Big Dipper will suffer a bloodbath..."
Zhou Tong briefly explained the situation regarding Big Dipper.
The Sun Sacred Emperor glanced at Zhou Tong and then said, "Since you have this intention, then I will give you the Sun Palace and my backup plan that I left in the Big Dipper. However, after countless years, the Sun Palace will be mostly incomplete. I will teach you the method to repair it!"
As he spoke, the Sun Sacred Emperor pointed a finger at Zhou Tong's brow, and instantly, endless information flooded into his mind.
That was the complete construction and restoration method of the Sun Palace, which has now been passed on to Zhou Tong.
"Thank you, Saintly Emperor!!" Zhou Tong's eyes showed a hint of joy.
The Sun Sacred Emperor nodded, then his figure faded and vanished completely, as if he had never existed. His Imperial Weapon returned to its previous position and fell silent.
Only the golden Array Diagram that sank into Zhou Tong's body proved that everything just now was real.
"Will the Sun Sacred Emperor really be able to revive then?" Zhou Tong also had some doubts. He sat down cross-legged and looked inward at his Sea of Wheels Realm.
Within the Wheel Sea, the Other Shore is hazy, while the Life Wheel is clear and bright. The purple Sea of Bitterness is dazzling and radiant, with hardly a trace of death in sight, and is filled with an unimaginable vitality.
Above the Sea of Sea of Bitterness, a pale golden ancient scroll floated silently, slowly rotating. Though slow, it possessed a majestic aura, as if it could shatter Myriad Heavens and myriad worlds. Wisps of chaotic mist accompanied the golden divine light as they rose, terrifying beyond measure.
"The material of this Array Diagram is... the skin of the Sun Sacred Emperor!?" Zhou Tong examined the Array Diagram carefully and was immediately shocked.
The Great Emperor Formation Diagram cannot be supported by just any material. Ordinary materials are already quite remarkable if they can support even a corner of the Array Diagram; only Immortal Material can support the complete Great Emperor Formation Diagram.
Previously, Zhou Tong had been curious as to how the Sun Sacred Emperor had managed to find the materials to forge the array Array Diagram in such a short time after his resurrection. But now, he understood everything. In order to deal with the possible Dark Turmoil in the future, the Sun Emperor Divine Emperor had even used his own remaining corpse to forge an Array Diagram.
He never thought about being laid to rest; instead, he wanted to remain worthy of heaven and earth even after death.
"Since this Array Diagram was forged from the only remaining corpse of the Sun Sacred Emperor, perhaps it contains the secret to the Sun Sacred Emperor's resurrection!" Zhou Tong's divine sense quickly probed into this Array Diagram.
Strands of Dao Pattern intertwined continuously on this ancient scroll; the Dao Pattern were so dense and powerful. Even though the formation acknowledged Zhou Tong and posed no threat to him, it still filled Zhou Tong with trepidation during his exploration.
"This Array Diagram was hastily crafted by the Sun Sacred Emperor, and its power has not yet reached its peak. If it were a genuine Array Diagram that had given birth to Formation Spirit, its power would probably be countless times stronger than this Divine Diagram!" Zhou Tong subconsciously thought of the core Array Diagram of the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountains.
When Zhou Tong went there last time, his strength was extremely weak, and he could only see the Array Patterns manifested in the Void the Great. But with his current perspective, if he were to imagine carefully, the Array Patterns that were exposed to his eyes at that time were probably only one ten-thousandth of what he saw.
Continuing to explore the Array Diagram, Zhou Tong suddenly had a flash of inspiration; he discovered something within Array Diagram.
Those were three drops of golden blood.
Although it was only three drops of blood, it shone with golden light, like three golden Sun Emperor. The terrifying Sun Sacred Power flowed in all directions, radiating powerful fluctuations.
"These three drops of blood are probably the only three drops of Essence Blood left behind by the Sun Sacred Emperor ..." Zhou Tong looked at the drop of blood carefully. He sensed a vast aura from it, as if a Deity was hidden in each of the three drops of blood.
"Divine Thought ... After the Sun Sacred Emperor was revived, his Divine Thought did not completely dissipate; a trace remained. The Sun Sacred Emperor refined it into these three drops of Emperor Blood, precisely for the purpose of reviving the Dark Turmoil!"
"Perhaps these three drops of blood originally contained a trace of insignificant divine soul, which is why they were able to revive under the power of the thoughts of all living beings during the Dark Turmoil period in the original story?" At this moment, Zhou Tong completely understood the Sun Sacred Emperor's plan.
If Zhou Tong can revive the Sun Sacred Emperor, then everything will be worthwhile; if Zhou Tong fails to revive the Sun Sacred Emperor, then this Array Diagram, combined with the Imperial Weapon, can still unleash extremely terrifying power.
Even those three drops of Emperor Blood could still emit a trace of the Sun Sacred Emperor's battle imprint...
"With these arrangements made by the Sun Sacred Emperor, the chances of unleashing the Dark Turmoil in this Lifetime are much greater than in the original story!" Zhou Tong silently calculated in his heart. "With the Sun Sacred Emperor's backup plan, it seems the Supreme Being of the Hegemon Body Lineage won't need to be born..."
"In the future Dark Turmoil, firstly, since the Hegemon Body has not been born, there will be one less source of turmoil; secondly, when facing the Stone Emperor and the others, there will be more strength to fight; and thirdly, after the turmoil ends, the Hegemon Body Lineage will not fall into the embarrassing situation of being condemned by the whole world."
Having obtained the Array Diagram prepared by the Sun Sacred Emperor, Zhou Tong's worries about the Dark Turmoil were somewhat alleviated.
"He devoted himself to the cause until his dying breath; the Sun Sacred Emperor is worthy of admiration..."
Zhou Tong stood up and bowed once again to the coffin Emperor Pagoda in front of him.
"If the Array Diagram and even the Essence Blood can be preserved after the future Dark Turmoil, I will do my best to save the Saintly Emperor!" Zhou Tong silently made a decision in his heart.
Even those who are completely dead may not be unable to be resurrected. As long as they can find what the Desolate Heaven Emperor left behind, there is hope. In fact, if they cultivate to the level of Immortal Emperor, they may even be able to bring the dead back to life.
