Imperial Title
After Zhou Tong fully recovered, he immediately returned to the Hegemon Body Ancestral Star and went back to the Hegemon Body Ancestral Cave.
"Under the same divine restriction state, Quasi-Emperor, a Quasi-Emperor Ninth Heaven- Emperor at the sixth level, killed the Divine Court Emperor Lord at the ninth level. Your combat strength has exceeded our expectations." Cang Lan with some excitement, "I believe that you can truly succeed in proving the Dao in this Lifetime!"
"Haha, my Hegemon Body Lineage has roamed the planetary sky for millions of years, it's time for a Great Emperor to emerge!" Kun Gu was also somewhat excited.
"Six Heavens killing Ninth Heaven, and without relying on Imperial Weapon or other means, our Hegemon Body Lineage might produce a Heavenly Emperor!!" Xuan Ming's eyes flashed with divine light.
"If you attain enlightenment in the future, you can be named by our Hegemon Body Lineage, such as 'Hegemon Heavenly Emperor', what do you think?" Xuan Ming said finally.
"Indeed, Hegemon Heavenly Emperor, the Great Emperor of our Hegemon Body Lineage deserves this title!" Kun Gu and Cang Lan nodded in unison.
Zhou Tong was speechless. He hadn't even attained enlightenment yet, and these several Great Accomplishment Hegemon Body had already given him imperial titles.
"Hegemon Heavenly Emperor ...that's right. There was the Desolate Heaven Emperor in ancient times, and I am the Hegemon Heavenly Emperor!" Zhou Tong nodded slightly, which was considered as his agreement to the title of emperor.
Zhou Tong had actually thought about the title he would receive after attaining enlightenment.
He came up with two titles: one based on his physique and his way of doing things, namely, the Hegemon Heavenly Emperor; the other based on his path of cultivation, namely, the War Heavenly Emperor.
These two titles are actually quite similar. However, considering that he himself belongs to the Heavenly Tyrant Body Lineage, and has been known as the "Overlord" for over a hundred years, if he were to name himself "War Heavenly Emperor," he would have to go through some trouble to correct the way people address him, and he would definitely be gossiped about behind his back.
So to put it simply, let's just call him the Hegemon Heavenly Emperor. It's just a title, so it doesn't really matter.
"Since you have proven your combat strength, we will not stop you." Xuan Ming sighed in the end. "However, the Forbidden Zone Supreme are not comparable to the Divine Court Emperor Lord, and your battle with the Divine Court Emperor Lord has certainly caught their attention. You are now on the list of those Forbidden Zone Supreme, and this journey is extremely dangerous."
Now that the Path to Immortality is about to open, most of the supreme beings in those Forbidden Zone have already awakened. This great battle at the Quasi-Emperor Ninth Heaven will undoubtedly sweep across most of the universe; how could they possibly be indifferent?
In particular, Zhou Tong, despite being at the sixth level of the Heavenly Realm, killed the Divine Court Emperor Lord of the Ninth Heaven, which further landed him on the blacklist of those Forbidden Zone Supreme.
After all, Zhou Tong's current combat strength is a bit too strong.
If the Sixth Heaven can kill the Ninth Heaven, what about the Seventh Heaven? Can it kill those who have achieved enlightenment through Alternative Dao Attainment? Is the Eighth Heaven comparable to a Supreme Being after their ascension? Is the Ninth Heaven comparable to an Ancient Emperor Great Emperor their peak? And what about those who have achieved enlightenment through Alternative Dao Attainment or even attained the Dao after that?
It is foreseeable that Zhou Tong will face numerous tribulations in the future, perhaps even surpassing historical ones, with tribulations from Forbidden Zone emerging during his seventh-level Quasi-Emperor Heavenly Tribulation.
Even the supreme beings of those Forbidden Zone might not only interfere with a single attack from a distance, but there is a very high chance that they will personally appear in their true forms to obstruct the path.
"Since you have left the Divine Thought of the Taiyin Emperor on the ancestral star, I will give you this item for self-defense!"
As he spoke, Xuan Ming's Immortal Source shone brightly, and then seventy-two rays of light shot out, transforming into Immortal Sword Array Patterns.
This is a forbidden artifact of Xuan Ming, which he obtained after years of studying the incomplete Nine Secrets: Zu; after obtaining Zhou Tong's complete Nine Secrets: Zu, he had already completed the last missing piece.
"Thank you!" Zhou Tong was silent for a moment, then nodded and put away the forbidden artifact.
"After this battle, I will definitely elevate the Ancestral Body to a whole new level. When I return, I will open Hegemon Body Lineage!" Zhou Tong solemnly promised.
After leaving the Hegemon Body Ancestral Star, Zhou Tong went directly to the Big Dipper Star Domain.
In the current Big Dipper Star Domain, countless powerful figures from various starfields have arrived, creating an extremely tense atmosphere. The entire Big Dipper Star Domain is filled with a sense of oppression.
Quasi-Emperor have already openly appeared beside the Immortal Path Crack, freely absorbing the Immortal Domain Matter on the Path to Immortality to prolong their lifespan. The Seven Forbidden Zone have also revived at this time, and an unprecedented upheaval is about to begin.
Just as everyone was anxiously waiting, Zhou Tong finally arrived at Big Dipper once again.
As soon as he entered Big Dipper, he saw the huge crack that stretched across the sky above the Primordial Forbidden Land.
"It's 330 feet long... I estimate it will open within one or two years!" Zhou Tong looked at the crack and roughly estimated when the Path to Immortality would officially open.
After estimating the time, he immediately became somewhat excited.
Zhou Tong didn't know what the Path to Immortality to others, but for him, it meant a great battle, an unprecedented great battle, a supreme battle. It was the best resource for his Battle Immortal Path, a resource that even the Battle Saint Emperor couldn't experience back then.
"But now that so many years have passed, Yan Ruyu should have become Great Sage by now!" Zhou Tong immediately thought of his wife, and then took a step back to the Sun Star.
However, Yan Ruyu was no longer there; a letter was left on the Dao Platform she had been sitting cross-legged.
Zhou Tong casually grabbed the letter, opened it, and read it carefully.
"I see..." Zhou Tong nodded slightly and put the letter away.
The letter clearly stated that she had survived the Great Saint Tribulation twenty-five years ago and was waiting for Zhou Tong here, but after waiting for twenty years, she still hadn't seen him.
The Path to Immortality had begun, and sensing the impending Dark Turmoil, she took the Azure Emperor's Heart and departed for a Star Scripture left behind by the Azure Emperor. There, she could find a contingency plan left by the Azure Emperor that would allow her to avoid the Dark Turmoil.
The letter also included coordinates, which were the coordinates of the ancient star left behind by the Azure Emperor.
"It's fine if you hide well. I'll come find you after the Dark Turmoil!" Zhou Tong looked at the great crack above the Primordial Forbidden Land and the seven Forbidden Zone that emitted immortal light.
The Path to Immortality will begin during this period.
Zhou Tong made a final tour of the Sun Palace and the various Sun Temples located throughout the Sun Star, all of which were nodes set up by the Sun Sacred Emperor.
"The Dark Turmoil is approaching, and it's time for a completely new round of arrangements!" Zhou Tong finally returned to the Sun Divine Temple and arrived at the core of the Array Patterns that suppressed the Sun Star.
A Divine Diagram emerged from his body, radiating a dazzling, celestial brilliance like a golden sun. This was the Array Diagram crafted by the Sun Sacred Emperor.
With this diagram returned to its original position, the Array Patterns inside the entire Sun Star were instantly reintegrated, transforming into a truly perfect and flawless Great Emperor Array Patterns. Even if Great Emperor wanted to conquer the Sun Star, he would need to pay a price.
"Next up is this!" Zhou Tong took out another item.
This is the Azure Emperor Lotus. At this moment, the lotus petals are tightly closed, suppressing the Light Clan's Imperial Weapon — the Spirit Refining Pot.
"Clang!"
The Azure Lotus trembled slightly, and its petals finally reopened, revealing the Spirit Refining Pot on the lotus platform, as well as the Sacred Spirit Stone Book that was suppressed at the Spirit Refining Pot.
"Om-long!"
He moved the Spirit Refining Pot and the Sacred Spirit Stone Book out of the Azure Emperor Lotus and placed them under the Sun Sacred Emperor Formation Diagram. He then used the Sacred Spirit Stone Book in conjunction with the entire Sun Star, the entire Sun Palace, and the Sun Sacred Emperor's Array Diagram to re-suppress them.
"The Sun Sacred Emperor's Array Diagram is left here, so the Ziwei Star Domain needs to make some arrangements!" Zhou Tong pondered for a while, then left the Sun Star. With a step, a great path radiating countless Purple Qi spread directly from the Big Dipper to the Ziwei Star Domain.
On this day, the entire Ziwei Star Domain witnessed a strange sight.
A brilliant Purple Qi spread from the depths of the universe, stretching for countless miles. Vast and auspicious energy descended from the sky like a waterfall, dyeing the entire Ziwei Ancient Star purple.
"The... the Great Emperor is on his way?" someone exclaimed, their expression one of utter shock. Such a figure had actually appeared in this world?
Zhou Tong arrived at the Ziwei Star Domain. He looked down at the large star below and quickly sketched array Array Patterns in the Void the Great. Then he buried the Divine Thought of the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body here.
At the same time, he also activated the faith path of Amitabha Great Emperor and set up a set of sensing Array Patterns.
As soon as a supreme being arrives here, the means will be activated immediately to awaken the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body.
Of course, this is just a precautionary measure, a backup plan in case the plan fails and all the supreme beings are not stopped.
If Zhou Tong can stop a few Supreme Beings and lead them to the depths of the starry sky for a battle, he himself can also awaken his Great Accomplishment Sacred Body at any time to enter the starry sky for a battle.
