The Lost Immortal Emperor

As the rankings at the Bookholder Conference changed dramatically over time, the thoughts of more and more people and the flow of energy in the Spirit Realm were all focused on the final rankings.

After all, these days, rumors are everywhere that this conference will ultimately decide who is the successor of the Immortal Ancestor and who will receive the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance.

Having experienced the "Creation Chain Law Diagram" incident, countless cultivators from various sects have gradually come to understand the existence of the book and subsequently recognized the power of its creator, the Immortal Ancestor.

In the eyes of the various factions of cultivators, this conference was like a proxy war between the Immortal Emperor, where the Bookholder represented different Immortal Emperor to compete for the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance.

As for who will become the successor of the Immortal Ancestor, countless cultivators have various thoughts. Some ponder the impact of this matter on the Dao Struggle, some want to cooperate, and others consider changes in stock prices and industries.

But regardless of what the cultivators thought, there was one unspoken consensus.

That will be the final outcome for the successor of the Immortal Ancestor, and it will inevitably have a profound impact on the entire Kunxu.

Therefore, as the Rankings gradually revealed the final positions, the related traffic reached its peak.

Whether rich or poor, whether they are studying for Lower Cultivator or High Cultivator, whether they are alive or dead—and even many who are not human—at this moment, everyone is paying attention to the final rankings through various channels.

Countless gazes and thoughts have now crossed the Spirit Realm and converged above Zhang Yu and the others.

They seemed to be witnessing the future of Kunxu, and also gathered here because of the stirring up by the ten Bookholder.

It's Zhang Yu!

In the live stream, Hyperfrequency Heavenly Lord shouted, "The final winner is out! It's Zhang Yu Mysterious Lord Zhang, from the Myriad Laws Sect!"

"With unparalleled foresight, unwavering Dao Heart, and incomparable patience, he triumphed over the ten Bookholder, propelling the world's Immortal Dao Gross Product under his jurisdiction to first place! Let us congratulate him!"

"Perhaps before the conference began, no one could have imagined that Mysterious Lord Zhang, the one with the lowest cultivation level and least experience among the Bookholder, would become the biggest dark horse of this conference."

The Redundant Lord of Heaven beside him said, "Mysterious Lord Zhang will become the successor of the Immortal Ancestor and receive the Immortal Ancestor's inheritance. Although we do not yet know what the inheritance contains, based on the available information, it must be related to books. A brand new era may be about to be born from this moment!"

At the same time, the Book of Transformation, the Flight Book, and the Ascension Book seemed to have initiated some kind of Ritual, and at this moment they all merged into Zhang Yu's body with unstoppable force.

Watching this scene, the Hyperfrequency Heavenly Lord said, "This should be the start of the Immortal Ancestor's inheritance Ritual. Mysterious Lord Zhang is receiving the specific details of the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance."

"Let's take this time to review Mysterious Lord Zhang's growth trajectory and his outstanding performance at this conference----"

As news of Zhang Yu's ultimate victory was confirmed, all sorts of information about Zhang Yu in the Spirit Realm surged forth in an instant.

The many cultivators of the Heaven Sword Sect seized the opportunity to promote and hype the development of the Shocking Sword Intent.

Within the Myriad Laws Sect, cultivators continuously praised Zhang Yu's performance and the Immortal Emperor's illustrious reputation.

Meanwhile, within the Immortal Soldier Mansion, cultivators repeatedly complained that the unclear rules of the conference were affecting the performance of Yuan Sheng, the Bookholder the Immortal Soldier Mansion, and demanded a revision.

A conference was convened.

Many of the Demon Descendant of the Heaven Demon Sect also demanded a reconvening of the conference. However, Demon Descendant concern was that, apart from Heavenly Demon Life, none of the other Bookholder ' Immortal Emperor Simulator contained any Demon Descendant, which they suspected of discriminating against Demon Descendant.

Amidst the noisy and increasingly turbulent Spirit Realm, countless thoughts descended upon the scene, attempting to connect with Zhang Yu.

"Mysterious Lord Zhang, what do you want to say at this moment?"

"Mysterious Lord Zhang, what exactly is the content of the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance? Could you please explain it to me?!"

"Mysterious Lord Zhang, why didn't you create Demon Descendant in the Illusion Realm? Do you treat humans and Demon Descendant differently?"

Just as Zhang Yu was surrounded, the Bai Gusheng not far away stared intently at him.

As he watched his own "Book of Transformation," along with the "Flight Book" and "Ascension Book" that should have been his, being thrown into Zhang Yu's arms, an overwhelming sense of jealousy welled up within him.

Bai Gusheng never expected that the final winner would be Zhang Yu, the person he least favored, whose work ability and productivity ranked last among the ten Bookholder.

"I think there's something wrong with this selection mechanism for the Immortal Ancestor. It's just based on our true feelings, so how can it represent the choices we would actually make?"

"Of the ten of us here, which one wouldn't abandon their principles for personal gain?"

At that moment, Bai Gusheng wished he could rush up and snatch the book back.

But under the watchful eyes of countless people, and with the Ten Immortal Emperors in charge, no matter what thoughts were in Bai Gusheng's mind, he could only watch helplessly as he...

The "Book of Transformation," which he had cherished for many years, was about to be used recklessly by Zhang Yu in front of everyone.

As Bai Gusheng watched the book being absorbed by Zhang Yu, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "This book wasn't this proactive when it was in my hands."

Staring at Zhang Yu like White Bone were Tian Feibao, the former owner of "Flight Book," and Qian Airen, the former owner of "Ascension Book," who could only helplessly watch as Zhang Yu completely took possession of their books.

Someone even crossed over from the Spirit Realm to conduct an interview, asking, "Qian Lord of Heaven, what do you think are the main problems with this failure? Who should be held responsible?"

At the same time, Zhang Yu turned his gaze toward Wang Guiren.

He thought to himself, "Is it Senior Ying Xintian?"

If the other party's performance in the first 99 years of the Immortal Emperor Simulator only made him suspicious, then the other party's performance in the last year gave Zhang Yu 90% certainty.

"Severing one's lifespan—in the entire Kunxu, perhaps only Senior Ying Xintian could accomplish this."

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "But this conference is overseen by Ten Immortal Emperors. If it really is Senior Ying Xintian who comes to participate, what will happen if he is discovered—"

Wouldn't that be like walking into a trap?

Zhan Xian said, "Master Ying would not act so impulsively. This Wang Guiren should only be an avatar of his; his true body must still be hidden somewhere and will not be easily discovered by the Ten Immortal Emperors."

The Sect Examination Clone said, "What is this guy sending an avatar for? Could it be that he wants to steal the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance? Moreover, he actually impersonated a cultivator from the Heavenly Devil Sect. Could it be that he has secretly joined forces with the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor?"

Zhan Xian said, "Grandmaster's goal should be the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance. After all, given his principles, he would never sit idly by and watch the Ten Immortal Emperors inherit it."

"Taking the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance Apocalypse of the End."

"Is it possible that in the previous Reincarnation, Master Ying achieved final victory and obtained the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance?"

"As for the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor —he probably has his own ideas, after all, there are many conflicts among the Immortal Emperor, and they are not a completely united community of interests."

Zhang Yu repeatedly reviewed the opponent's performance in the video, speculating in his mind, "Competing for the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance? Senior Ying Xintian participated in the war between good and evil, and managed the sect. He has more experience than me. If he hadn't severed his lifespan at the last moment, causing the Immortal Dao Gross Product to plummet, this first place might not have been mine."

A sudden realization flashed through Zhan Xian's mind. "Why is it such a coincidence that our master severed his lifespan at the last moment? Was it to give us this opportunity?"

Zhang Yu's heart skipped a beat. "You mean Senior Ying Xintian could see how the rest of us performed back then? So he gave it to me?"

"Indeed, with Senior Ying Xintian's cultivation level, it's not impossible for him to do so."

"But----"

Zhang Yu raised his head and looked at the names of the Ten Immortal Emperors, a trace of worry rising in his heart. "I wonder if the Ten Immortal Emperors have discovered Senior Ying Xintian?"

"Probably not. If they had discovered it, they would have already taken action. No—it's also possible that they know Senior Ying Xintian only sent out an avatar. Even if they noticed, they definitely wouldn't act for the time being, but would rather wait for an opportunity to find the real body."

Zhang Yu's mind raced. He felt that the scene was fraught with danger, like a giant powder keg. The slightest mistake could trigger a massive battle and an explosion that would detonate over Kunxu.

At the same time, a countdown appeared before his eyes, like a fuse, gradually igniting the scene.

This countdown was set by Zhang Yu based on the countdown from "Future Information".

"The moment the countdown finishes should be the point in time where the last rollback occurred."

"I wonder what will happen this time?"

Although Zhang Yu's mind was racing with thoughts in that instant, it was only a fleeting moment to the outside world.

The Book of Transformation, the Flight Book, and the Ascension Book have all been integrated into his body.

At the same time, an aged voice resounded in his mind. "Concentrate, and absorb the inheritance with all your might."

Zhang Yu was startled. Just as he was about to say something, he felt the three books being devoured and absorbed by the "Feather Scroll" within his body, and three new chapters suddenly appeared on the "Feather Scroll".

His gaze swept across the area, and the first thing he saw was the "Dao Inheritance Chapter" generated from the "Book of Transformation".

"In my exploration of the Dao Orthodoxy throughout history, I discovered that many predecessors died but left behind their Daoist teachings, leaving numerous Dao Orthodoxy without a leader to operate—a situation that is both regrettable and dangerous."

"I wrote this book in the hope that future generations will inherit the Dao Orthodoxy of our predecessors, and not let their hard work be buried in history, but rather make good use of it and manage it properly."

Looking at the Immortal Ancestor's message, Zhang Yu nodded slightly in agreement. "The Immortal Ancestor's thoughts actually coincide with those of the current Immortal Emperor."

"The Dao Orthodoxy of immortals, generation after generation, has added various rules to this world. These rules interact and influence each other, creating a system that..."

It could benefit the world, or it could trigger a huge crisis.

"All Dao Orthodoxy must be recorded, controlled, and managed in order to avoid the dangers Dao Orthodoxy may cause."

After briefly studying the "Dao Inheritance Chapter, Zhang Yu roughly understood its contents.

"This is yet another shortcut to the Ascension Realm, allowing cultivators to the Ascension Realm immortality without needing to possess their own Dao Orthodoxy."

"Simply put, it means finding Unclaimed Dao Orthodoxy, then substituting one person for another to Unclaimed Dao Orthodoxy."

Just then, Zhang Yu's gaze shifted slightly, and he saw the words appearing on the "Dao Inheritance Chapter".

"Is this... yet another lost history?"

"It's still about the lost history of the Immortal Emperor."

Zhang Yu quickly skimmed through the contents and kept summarizing in his mind. "The founder of the Heaven Demon Sect was the last Demon Saint."

Originally, the goal was to establish Dao Orthodoxy, enabling humans and demons to cooperate, unifying all races, and making the world one family.

"But through repeated reversals and guidance, the founder's ideals were distorted, and he was eventually reincarnated as a human, using his human form to control all demons, calling himself the Heavenly Demon Immortal Emperor."

Upon seeing this, Zhang Yu was shocked. "So this is the history of the Heavenly Demon Immortal Emperor being rolled back?"

While Zhang Yu pondering, he quickly browsed the following content. "The Blissful Union Immortal Emperor was originally a chivalrous hero who valued loyalty and righteousness the most. He also Disgust the influence of those Heart Aspiring to Immortality immortality and severed all emotions and righteousness."

Later, he entered the path of Daoism through love, created Realm of Sentiment, made a vow to protect all loving people in the world, and swept away all evil, gradually becoming a righteous being.

A paragon of virtue. His disciples are all compassionate and righteous individuals, accompanying and supporting each other in this Realm of Sentiment, gradually developing a tendency to resist the Heart Aspiring to Immortality.

"But it was precisely because of this that he was targeted, and after repeated setbacks, he eventually became the Blissful Union Immortal Emperor of the Joyous Union Sect."

Zhang Yu felt a chill run down his spine as he continued reading, "The White Bone Immortal Emperor was originally a medical sage who established Dao Orthodoxy, desiring to provide free medical treatment to everyone in the world, conquering all injuries and diseases."

"But in the end, he still became the White Bone Immortal Emperor, capable of bankrupting people and turning them from living beings into Soul Cultivator cultivators."

Looking at these lost histories belonging to the Immortal Emperor, a thought couldn't help but well up in Zhang Yu's mind, "Heavenly Demon Immortal Emperor, White Bone Immortal Emperor..."

"The Blissful Union Immortal Emperor, it turns out, was all due to the existence of the Rollback, gradually becoming what he is now?"

"Is someone subtly guiding them using rollback? But if so, why do they now also have control over rollback?"

As Zhang Yu's thoughts raced, Zhan Xian said, "This means they defeated the previous generation who could use the reversal technique and that supreme Supreme Immortal Artifact Supreme Immortal Artifact, seized it, became its master, and then, along with other Supreme Immortal Artifact Immortal Emperor, gained control of the power to World Rollback."

"Defeat them? How did they manage to defeat an opponent who possessed the ability to roll back?" Zhang Yu hadn't expected that his long-held desire to resist the Supreme Immortal Artifact...

The goal of resisting the World Rollback has most likely already been accomplished once by the Ten Immortal Emperors.

He thought to himself, "If that's the case, they must have prepared many methods to prevent me from being defeated by similar tactics."

Just as Zhang Yu was comprehending the new chapter of the "Feather Scroll" and understanding the lost history that emerged within it.

Kunxu, Layer 33.

In the Sea of Ten Thousand Methods.

The Wanfa Immortal Emperor sat cross-legged within, his body swirling with countless pieces of information.

Among them was important intelligence that Zhang Yu had obtained from the Immortal Wanfa Immortal Emperor 30 days ago, before attending the Bookholder Conference.

Just like when Zhang Yu first met the Emperor, no matter how he hid or prepared, the Wanfa Immortal Emperor found, read, and memorized all the hidden information about the future in Zhang Yu's mind, without forgetting a single detail.

At this moment, what surged before the Wanfa Immortal Emperor were a barrage of questions.

If Zhang Yu were to see these questions, he would realize that these were probably messages that had appeared in the "Feather Scroll" before, sent from the future to lost history, posing questions to Ying Xintian, Tian De, and the Demon Saint.

Although the answers from Ying Xintian, Tian De, and the Demon Saint, as information from lost history, did not disappear from the book or be forgotten by Zhang Yu, the future information in that part of the question still disappeared.

However, before these future information completely disappeared and were forgotten, Zhang Yu sealed and preserved them, just like other future information. And this batch of future information, just like the future information that Zhang Yu hid when he first met the Saint, was discovered and read by the Wanfa Immortal Emperor.

Looking at these questions, the Wanfa Immortal Emperor pondered, "Although I can only see the questions themselves, it's clear that these are questions directed at the Immortal Emperor of lost history?"

Should we ask them for help?

The Wanfa Immortal Emperor couldn't help but smile slightly, and then his laughter grew louder and louder.

"The Ying Ni of Lost History, along with Tian De and the Demon Saint —you've finally taken the bait."

"So what if history is lost? It will still be under my jurisdiction from now on."
