Ancient Star

The first thing that came into view was a vast ancient star, like a blue diamond embedded in the lonely universe! The ancient star was azure-blue, incomparably vast, and radiated an imposing majesty.

The entire Life Star was covered in Dao Patterns and formation patterns, its territory even greater than the Big Dipper's.

Ancient Star.

The starting point of Covering the Sky, a Life Star containing endless secrets.

The homeland of Emperor Lord and Ye Fan, and the Earth of Later Generations.

"Heaven, earth, ghosts, and gods all bow before Emperor Lord!" Amidst the haze, an ancient voice seemed to echo through the starry domain.

Chen Zhao shifted his gaze to the Life Star beside it. It was a desolate crimson Life Star.

Yet compared to the Ancient Star, it was far inferior. Its entire body was scarlet-red, its Life Essence scarce, making it seem exceptionally barren.

This Life Star was Ying Huo Ancient Star, the Mars of Later Generations.

During the Mythological Era, the Ancient Heavenly Court's Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountains had descended upon Ying Huo and nearly drained Ying Huo Ancient Star dry.

Although Mars was exceedingly barren now, it was not yet a dead star.

During the Ancient Era, the Undying Heavenly Emperor had arranged a scheme on Ying Huo Ancient Star, igniting a vast Divine War that had nearly destroyed the Ancient Myriad Races and wiped out the entire universe.

Even the Becoming Immortal Cauldron had shattered in that Divine War, while the Yin Human Emperor Seal and the Immortal Slaying Black Gourd had also been blasted apart.

Even Ying Huo Ancient Star had been completely extinguished and turned into a dead star.

There was also a Path to Immortality on Ying Huo Ancient Star, leading to a Strange World containing Longevity Substance.

Chen Zhao then turned his gaze above Ancient Star, Emperor Lord's homeland and the final stop of the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountains.

The Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountains on Ancient Star were currently in a period of releasing their essence in reverse, and Spiritual Energy was exceptionally abundant.

Standing above the Star River and looking down at Ancient Star, Chen Zhao saw countless great formations surrounding the entire star. The regions visible beyond the formations were inhabited by the Myriad Races.

"The formation patterns Emperor Lord laid down in the past." Chen Zhao's eyes flickered slightly.

If anyone tried to destroy this place, its formation patterns would automatically revive.

He knew that Emperor Lord had not died and was currently within the Strange World.

Although Emperor Lord could not return, he had left behind many contingencies in the Great Universe.

Chen Zhao stepped forward and descended onto Ancient Star.

The numerous formation patterns could not obstruct him in the slightest. He moved as though no one were present.

Chen Zhao arrived before the Kunlun Mountain Range, this vast region sealed within a formation.

The great peaks of the Kunlun Mountain Range stretched endlessly, with no end in sight. It was like a True Dragon lying dormant here.

Towering mountain peaks pierced the clouds, and dense Life Essence permeated the air. This was unquestionably a vast source land, where countless ancient beasts reproduced.

The legendary ancestor of all veins, the root of all mountains—its terrain was incomparably awe-inspiring.

During the Mythological Era, the Kunlun Remnant Tribe had also lived here.

The Kunlun Remnant Tribe was not a single race, but the many clans that had once dwelled in Mount Kunlun. Legend had it that they were a people close to immortality.

Mount Kunlun during the Mythological Era had also been a Life Forbidden Zone, guarded by many Self-Severed Supremes.

Later, Mount Kunlun was breached by Emperor Lord, and the many clans living here were exiled into the universe, becoming the Kunlun Remnant Tribe.

Even Hua She, Mount Kunlun's old ancestor, had been imprisoned by Emperor Lord as a sacrifice upon the Path to Immortality.

One had to know that Mount Kunlun had possessed the Immortal Bell at the time. Emperor Lord's ability to conquer it showed just how formidable his combat strength had been.

The Kunlun Remnant Tribe should now be on Flying Immortal Star. In the future, they would repeatedly attack Ancient Star in an attempt to return to their Kunlun Ancestral Land.

"Now that the Becoming Immortal Cauldron has yet to shatter, whose hands is it in?" Chen Zhao began recalling the plot from his previous life.

When Emperor Lord attempted the Ascension of the Entire Sect in the past, he had been ambushed by the Longevity Heavenly Lord and the Undying Heavenly Emperor, who held the Immortal Bell. Forbidden Zone Supremes had also acted.

The Becoming Immortal Cauldron pierced through the Immortal Domain's barrier, and someone within the Immortal Domain had intervened to stop Emperor Lord's ascension.

Caught in a difficult situation, Emperor Lord withdrew from the Path to Immortality, stormed into the Life Forbidden Zone and killed two Supremes, then returned to Ancient Star and feigned his death.

During this process, the Undying Heavenly Emperor went into hiding, fearing that Emperor Lord would settle their karmic debts. He even sealed himself within Immortal Source for ten thousand years before daring to emerge and prove the Dao.

Therefore, the Becoming Immortal Cauldron could not possibly be in the Undying Heavenly Emperor's hands now.

Although Emperor Lord had faked his death, remnants of the Ancient Heavenly Court's forces still existed.

The Feathered Emperor of Later Generations had come from the Heavenly Court's surviving forces.

Emperor Lord's Becoming Immortal Cauldron should be in the hands of those surviving Heavenly Court forces.

That was why, during the Ying Huo Divine War, the Undying Heavenly Emperor had revealed himself, and the surviving Heavenly Court forces had wielded the Becoming Immortal Cauldron in an attempt to blast him to death.

Even the Yin Human Emperor Seal had joined that great battle, clearly intending to avenge the Yin Human Emperor.

Although these were all his deductions, Chen Zhao felt they were almost certainly correct.

That was how the Becoming Immortal Cauldron had been blasted apart during the Ancient God War.

After all, the surviving Heavenly Court forces of Later Generations wielded the damaged Becoming Immortal Cauldron in an attempt to kill the Longevity Heavenly Lord after he returned from failing to break through the Path to Immortality.

The Undying Heavenly Emperor truly inspired too much hatred. He had offended more than half the Mortal World Immortals in the Zhetian Universe.

Later, he was even ambushed and perished at Ye Fan's hands.

Suddenly, a Divine Tree appeared ahead of him, emerging before Chen Zhao.

The Divine Tree was only around ten feet tall, yet dense Immortal Spiritual Energy flowed through its branches.

Several snow-white fruits shaped like tiny human figures hung from the tree. Warm and lustrous like jade, they emitted a rich fragrance.

"Undying Medicine, Ginseng Fruit Tree."

Chen Zhao's eyes narrowed slightly. Although he had already been mentally prepared for this.

He had not expected to truly encounter the Ginseng Fruit Tree within the Kunlun Immortal Vein.

The Ginseng Fruit Tree contained a faint consciousness. That consciousness was extremely hazy, giving him the impression of a newborn infant.

A weak spiritual fluctuation came from it, asking Chen Zhao to take it away.

Undying Medicines would follow Heavenly Lords and Ancient Emperors in hopes of receiving protection.

In Later Generations, this Ginseng Fruit Tree had attempted to follow the Ruthless Great Emperor. After she refused, it followed Rong Cheng Shi away from Kunlun Immortal Mountain.

Chen Zhao naturally would not complain about having more Undying Medicines, so he placed the Undying Medicine into his Bitter Sea.

When the Ginseng Fruit Tree entered the Bitter Sea, the Moon Laurel Divine Tree and Fusang Divine Tree trembled slightly, as though welcoming the Ginseng Fruit Tree.

Chaos Qi flowed into the Ginseng Fruit Tree, and a special resonance formed between them.

The Ginseng Fruit Tree seemed to have sensed the Chaos Green Lotus Seed undergoing Nirvana. It showered it with countless strands of Fortune Qi, accelerating its Nirvana.

"The Wheel and Sea Mystery is becoming more and more like a hodgepodge."

His Bitter Sea now contained the Fusang Divine Tree, Moon Laurel Divine Tree, Chaos Green Lotus Seed, and Ginseng Fruit Tree.

The four Undying Medicines planted within the Bitter Sea caused the entire Wheel and Sea Mystery to evolve in an unknown direction.

Through this evolution, Chen Zhao saw a path ahead toward creating heaven and earth.

Perhaps he could use this to find his own Sixth Secret Realm.

However, these were merely his imaginings. He still needed time to put them into practice.

The Sixth Secret Realm was something of the Immortal King Realm. He was still in the Human Dao Domain, though he had some ideas.

But he would not act rashly. After all, Azure Emperor was a cautionary example.
