Secrets of the Era of Emperor Fall: An Ominous Old Age for Great Emperor Wushi?
"Good tea!"
True Person Ziyang couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
On the other side, after drinking a cup of tea, True Person Yuhua's expression suddenly changed.
True Person Yuhua hurriedly bowed to Su Chen and True Person Ziyang, then turned and left the main hall to digest the terrifying power in a side hall.
That concludes the discussion.
Only Su Chen and True Person Ziyang remained in the hall.
At this moment, True Person Ziyang spoke up, "Young Master Su must have come here today for something, right?"
Su Chen nodded, not denying it. "There is something I'd like to know."
"Daoist Master... do you know anything about the Era of Emperor Fall?"
Upon hearing this, True Person Ziyang immediately changed, and he looked at Su Chen with an extremely solemn expression.
To even ask such a question, does this Young Master Su not come from that era?
But why does he possess such immense power?
True Person Ziyang lowered his head, revealing a thoughtful expression. Su Chen did not urge him, but simply waited quietly while sipping his tea.
After a long while, True Person Ziyang finally spoke:
"I didn't actually experience the Era of Emperor Fall, but my Master did. He was Saint level cultivator at the time, and he witnessed the beginning and end of the entire Era of Emperor Fall."
"But..."
True Person Ziyang's expression was extremely solemn. "This matter involves many things, and since my Master's strength was only average at the time, he didn't know much about it either."
Su Chen smiled and waited quietly for what was to come.
True Person Ziyang said with a serious expression, "The cause of the Era of Emperor Fall was a person. I don't know his real name, but you should have heard of his name."
"The Great Emperor Wushi!"
"This person is also one of the three Great Emperors who disappeared Era of Emperor Fall."
"I'm not entirely clear on the details, but my Master said it was all because the Great Emperor Wushi killed another Great Emperor... the Ziyun Great Emperor."
"Afterwards, Great Emperor Wushi began a frenzied slaughter of some top-tier Saint Tier forces. Some said that Great Emperor Wushi had fallen into demonic possession, so the entire Xuantian Realm began to condemn Great Emperor Wushi."
"Another Great Emperor also joined them."
"The ultimate consequence was that Great Emperor Wushi and another Great Emperor disappeared at the same time. Some say they both died, while others say Great Emperor Wushi was defeated. There are many different opinions."
"Many top-tier Saint Tier forces also disappeared along with it."
"Of course, many powerful figures who fought against the Great Emperor Wushi also survived and still exist today."
Upon hearing this, Su Chen frowned. True Person Ziyang said was indeed completely different from what he had read in historical records.
In other words, historical records are mostly speculations, but the story of True Person Ziyang is the real deal.
True Person Ziyang continued, "However, my Master was only a Saint back then, and he barely managed to break through, so he wasn't involved in this vortex."
"For this reason, he doesn't know much. If Young Master Su is interested, he can go to the Southern Domain or the Western Continent. The Lesser Thunderclap Temple and several forces in the Southern Domain were all forces that besieged Great Emperor Wushi back then."
Southern Domain, Western Continent.
Su Chen raised an eyebrow slightly. He didn't plan to go to the Western Continent anytime soon, but he would definitely visit the Southern Domain.
He probably understood.
The reason why the Great Emperor disappeared was that the Great Emperor Wushi had become a demon and indiscriminately killed innocent people. Therefore, everyone in the Xuantian Realm united to besiege the Great Emperor Wushi.
But...
He felt like something was off.
Can a powerful Great Emperor succumb to demonic possession?
He had also heard of the name of the Great Emperor Wushi emperor of all time with extraordinary combat power, and the strongest of the three Great Emperors.
How dare those Saint Tier forces in the Xuantian Realm besiege a Great Emperor with unparalleled combat power?
In the eyes of Great Emperor, aren't Saint Tier experts no different from Ant?
Besides.
Whether they succeeded in killing the Great Emperor Wushi or failed, there will eventually be a result.
But the reality is that most of them disappeared.
This is too unusual!
Moreover, Su Chen felt that the most unusual thing was the matter of the Great Emperor Wushi becoming a demon. How could the Great Emperor Wushi have become a demon?
Is his later life uncertain?
The main problem was that the information given by True Person Ziyang wasn't very accurate, so Su Chen couldn't know exactly what happened back then.
But he knew there were only two possible outcomes: either the Great Emperor Wushi had truly fallen into demonic possession.
Or perhaps he didn't become possessed by a demon...
But if you think about it that way, isn't that a bit terrifying?
Great Emperor Wushi did not fall into demonic possession, then why did the people of the Xuantian Realm besiege him, and why did they all disappear after the siege?
The key point is that the Great Emperor Wushi did not fall into demonic possession, which would leave a terrifying possibility.
Great Emperor Wushi did not succumb to demonic possession, then who did?
Or is it that no one has actually fallen into demonic possession?
If that's the case, then why did a major war break out?
Countless questions arose in Su Chen's mind. He took a deep breath, thinking things would be simple, but they turned out to be becoming increasingly complicated.
He still didn't know the answer he was looking for: why had the Heavenly Dao of the Xuantian Realm become so weak?
However, he was certain of one thing: it was definitely related to the Era of Emperor Fall.
Suddenly, Su Chen remembered the mournful sound that the Heavenly Dao had conveyed to him when he first explored his mother's body.
What exactly happened?
Su Chen took a deep breath. He would find out about these things sooner or later. He had basically never left the Eastern Domain, so it was normal that he didn't know much about the Xuantian Realm.
However, he will definitely travel all over the Xuantian Realm afterward, and may even enter the Demon Realm.
By then, he will know all the secrets.
Su Chen suddenly got goosebumps, feeling that there was a huge Conspiracy in the Xuantian Realm.
He quickly checked his System Inventory and only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing his Cultivation Level of hundreds of billions of years.
If all else fails, he'll just use them all.
However, his Cultivation Level would definitely be too much for the Xuantian Realm to handle, causing the world to shatter.
When a person's strength reaches a certain level, their inherent quality becomes so great that even concealing their Cultivation Level is useless.
But if that really happens, what does the shattering of the Xuantian Realm have to do with him? He can just take the Su Family and run away.
He couldn't protect all living beings, but he could protect the Su Family.
Although Su Chen was neither a great demon nor a great Saint, he did not have the kind of concern for all living beings.
It's possible for him to consider the plight of all living beings once he becomes invincible, but that's impossible now.
When one is successful, one should benefit all under heaven; when one is unsuccessful, one should cultivate one's own virtue.
After taking a deep breath, Su Chen slowly stood up, walked to the front of the portrait, reached out and took three incense sticks, then solemnly bowed three times.
If nothing unexpected happens, the person in this portrait should be one of the Three Pure Ones, Shangqing Lingbao Heavenly Venerate.
At least most likely...
Seeing mythical figures from Blue Star in this world stirred a slight tremor in Su Chen's heart.
Will I ever be able to meet the owner of this portrait?
That Primordial Supreme God!
Thinking of this, Su Chen smiled; this world is truly interesting.
