Just when the outside world was in turmoil.

Zhang Yu focused all his attention on his "Feather Scroll," striving to understand the new chapters and read the information that emerged within them.

After merging the "Book of Transformation" to create the "Dao Inheritance Chapter," Zhang Yu looked at the lines of history about the lost Immortal Emperor and couldn't help but sigh.

"The Heavenly Demon, the White Bone, and the Blissful Union have histories of being reverted and guided in this way; I wonder if the Wanfa Immortal Emperor has one as well."

Just then, the Wild Ox said, "The backstory of this Heavenly Demon Immortal Emperor is a bit strange."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu's heart stirred, and he said, "Indeed, it says here that he was the last Demon Saint and founded the Heaven Demon Sect, but I remember in the memories that the Desolate Ox Great Saint passed on to us—"

The Wild Ox in Zhang Yu's mind contained some of the memories of the Desolate Ox Great Saint. At this moment, it solemnly declared, "I am the true founder of the Heaven Demon Sect."

Zhan Xian speculated, "Is it possible that the history you remember has been rewound? Is your memory actually a lost history?"

The Wild Ox said, "If that's the case, why do I remember these things? Shouldn't I have forgotten them as the World Rollback?"

Sect Examination Clone, however, had Spiritual Energy and analyzed, "Wild Ox, don't you think your memories are similar to the lost history of this Heavenly Demon Immortal Emperor? Both guided humans and demons to coexist, and both founded the Heaven Demon Sect. Is it possible that you are the Heavenly Demon Immortal Emperor, or that the Heavenly Demon Immortal Emperor is you?"

Wild Ox denied it, saying, "Impossible. At least part of Desolate Ox Great Saint's consciousness is still suppressed deep within the Spirit Realm. How could he and Heavenly Demon Immortal Emperor be the same person? Moreover, this lost history also says that Heavenly Demon Immortal Emperor has been reincarnated as a human, but Desolate Ox Great Saint has not done so."

"Moreover, the Desolate Ox Great Saint tried various methods to change the world, doing far more than this Heavenly Demon Immortal Emperor."

Zhang Yu recalled the portion of the Desolate Ox Great Saint's memories that he had obtained, which were the Desolate Ox Great Saint's experiences of trying to change the world time and time again.

When Zhang Yu viewed these memories in the past, he could only lament the distortion of humanity in Kunxu, how everything would be completely distorted under the influence of the Dao Orthodoxy.

Having experienced countless events and mastered various secrets, looking back at some of the Desolate Ox Great Saint's memories, Zhang Yu felt a sense of unease. "Was the Desolate Ox Great Saint's experience also the result of repeated setbacks? Perhaps many of his original attempts were not truly failures, but rather led to failure through repeated setbacks."

"Moreover, what he did had many similarities to those of the various Demon Saint from the lost history."

"The Desolate Ox Great Saint —his memories are similar to the lost history of the Heavenly Demon Immortal Emperor, and also similar to those of the other Demon Saint, yet he is unlike any of them. In particular, a portion of his will still lingers deep within the Spirit Realm, and it was even used as bait by the Heavenly Court."

The more Zhang Yu pondered, the more he felt there were many hidden secrets involved, as if shrouded in layers of mist.

Several guesses arose in his mind, but ultimately, due to insufficient evidence at the moment, he could only suppress these thoughts for the time being and continue to comprehend the "Feather Scroll" before him.

This time, however, he focused his attention on another newly emerging chapter.

That was the new chapter "False Dao Chapter" born after the "Feather Scroll" merged with the "Flight Book".

at the same time.

Within the Myriad Laws Sect, Tai Yuebai's figure flickered, his entire being switching back and forth between the flesh and blood form and the Primordial Spirit, constantly altering his Spirit Realm Information, like a ray of light sweeping across the heavens and earth, leaping between different levels of Kunxu in an imperceptible manner.

"Senior Ying is sending me messages less frequently."

Tai Yuebai thought to himself, "This means the Immortal Emperor are tracking him more and more closely."

Tai Yuebai knew that Ying Xintian and the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor had reached some kind of agreement, allowing Ying Xintian to send an avatar to seize the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance.

But Tai Yuebai understood even better that this was a trap in itself.

"Even if it's just an avatar on stage, it still needs Senior Ying to control it. Right now, I'm afraid the Immortal Emperor are using the avatar on stage to track Senior Ying's location."

"And if he's not careful, Senior Ying will be caught."

What surprised Tai Yuebai even more was that Ying Xintian clearly gave up the fight for the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance at the last moment.

"Is it because of Zhang Yu?" Tai Yuebai recalled the video of Zhang Yu and wondered to himself, "Has Senior Ying acknowledged Zhang Yu's true nature and is willing to pass on the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance to him?"

"Because Senior Ying Xintian understands that even if he successfully prevents the Ten Immortal Emperors from obtaining the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance, he will still be besieged by the Ten Immortal Emperors. In the worst-case scenario, if he is suppressed by the Ten Immortal Emperors, he will have no choice but to destroy the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance and self-destruct to prevent being devoured by the Immortal Emperor. But in doing so, he will only delay the Ten Immortal Emperors from entering their Finality moments."

"Therefore, considering this worst-case scenario, Senior Ying Xintian plans to leave the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance to Zhang Yu, and then send Zhang Yu away, leaving behind a glimmer of hope that can one one day stand against the Immortal Emperor."

Tai Yuebai doesn't know.

But Tai Yuebai understood that things had come to this point, and he no longer had the power to choose.

The next moment, Tai Yuebai appeared in the Old Days Graveyard.

"Zhang Yu's team must include quite a few cultivators here, right?"

His purpose in this trip was to take away as many of Zhang Yu's companions as possible, so that he could send them out with Zhang Yu and help Zhang Yu grow.

Inside the Reformists's cave abode.

A stone traversed layers of Spatial Barrier, appearing silently directly before the two immortals.

"Such methods—" Seeing this scene, Immortal Roujia was startled. "Senior Brother, so it really is you who has returned?"

Her mind was flooded with memories of Wang Guiren's behavior at the Bookholder Conference.

After witnessing the other person's actions for the first time, she sensed a familiar feeling, but reason told her that Ying Xintian shouldn't come back.

On the other side, Immortal Yixuan sensed the Grotto-Heaven Power on the stone, looked at the words carved on it, and slowly said, "It really is Senior Brother. He's back, and he's going to cause a huge disturbance."

As Immortal Roujia read the text, he was shocked and exclaimed, "A coalition of the Immortal Class from the Ten Great Sects? Senior Brother, are you planning to rebel against all the Immortal Emperor?"

Even though she had already achieved immortality and become a Immortal Class transcending sects, when Immortal Roujia saw Ying Xintian's plan, she still felt a long-lost sense of dread.

Just then, the Immortal Yixuan murmured, "What my senior brother said is not untrue."

He pointed to the words left by Ying Xintian and said, "Now is indeed a critical moment for Kunxu."

"The Ten Immortal Emperors want to divide up the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance —whether this triggers a civil war or one of the Immortal Emperor makes a breakthrough, I'm afraid the entire Ten Great Sects and all the Immortal Class will never have a chance to rise again."

"However, the Ten Immortal Emperors are extremely powerful, and the immortals from different sects are wary of each other, making it difficult for them to join forces. No one dares to be the first to act at this moment."

"But if my senior brother were to raise the banner now, given his trustworthy character and the current situation, it is indeed possible for him to gain the trust of the immortals from various sects and stir up the overall situation of the Ten Sects."

Immortal Roujia looked at Immortal Yixuan beside her and said, "Have you made up your mind?"

Immortal Yixuan said, "The Ten Great Emperor Beasts have been whipping the world, causing widespread uproar. Now, with the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance's legacy as a guide and our eldest brother's call to action, it is the perfect opportunity to unite all the immortals in the world to resist them."

The next moment, he changed the subject, saying, "After Master Ying makes his move and the immortals from the various sects appear, we'll attack together."

Immortal Roujia nodded slightly, thinking to herself, "Based on past experience, we Reformists should preserve our strength and not become cannon fodder. Only after the immortals of various sects have successively entered the fray will it be our best opportunity to rise up."

Inside the space on the Layer 25 of Kunxu.

Ying Xintian's thoughts swept across the heavens and earth silently, constantly shifting his position in each spatial leap.

One moment he was on the Layer 25, the next he was on the Layer 12, and the instant after that he was on the 24th floor.

During this continuous high-speed transmission, Ying Xintian could sense that ten wills piercing through heaven and earth were closely tracking his trail.

However, because these ten wills always hindered each other, and there was always a feeling of not giving their all, they were unable to catch up with him completely for a long time.

Even so, it's only a matter of time before they catch up with me; I don't have much time left.

At the same time, he wrote a lot of information on various flowers, plants, bamboo and rocks, and sent it to the cave abode of immortals.

"The Ten Immortal Emperors are currently focusing most of their attention and power on guarding against each other in their struggle for the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance."

Ying Xintian understood that once Zhang Yu had digested the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance, the Immortal Emperor would inevitably try to seize control of Zhang Yu and use Zhang Yu to grasp the contents of the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance.

As for Zhang Yu winning, does that mean the entire Immortal Ancestor Inheritance's legacy will belong to the Wanfa Immortal Emperor? Does it mean the ownership of the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance's legacy will be decided entirely by a competition Lower Cultivator cultivators?

Ying Xintian understood that things were not so simple; how could the Ten Immortal Emperors easily hand over such benefits?

"Zhang Yu's victory may at most give the Wanfa Immortal Emperor an advantage in dividing the spoils, but as for how to actually divide them—they'll definitely have to continue negotiating and fighting."

"Especially when Ten Thousand Methods gains the advantage, the other Immortal Emperor will be even more wary of him and try to stop him. After all, Wanfa Immortal Emperor is one of the Immortal Emperor closest to breaking through."

"Therefore, during their pursuit of me, the Immortal Emperor worry that if they exert too much effort, they will be hindered by me, leading to their failure in the process of dividing the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance."

Ying Xintian knew that this was why the power of the Ten Immortal Emperors had failed to catch up with him immediately.

"This also gave me the opportunity to make arrangements and contact the Immortal Class of various sects."

Although it was said to be about contacting the Immortal Class, Ying Xintian knew that his primary targets were the Immortal Venerable of various sects, those Immortal Venerable who were suppressed by the Immortal Emperor and constantly worried about being devoured.

"With Tai Zhen suppressed, her accumulated wealth and resources fell into the hands of the Ten Immortal Emperors."

"Now, with the gradual revival of the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance, these Immortal Venerable should gradually realize that once the Immortal Emperor devour the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance, it will trigger unpredictable consequences."

Ying Xintian thought to himself, "Among them, Ten Thousand Methods, Jiuyou, and Buddha Emperor are the most likely to approach—or even break through—that realm during this process."

Ying Xintian estimated that he was still about two more Immortal Emperor ' worth of accumulation needed to break through to one of the Ten Immortal Emperors Immortal Emperor.

However, he couldn't accurately judge whether the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance was equivalent to that of one or two Immortal Emperor at this moment.

"However, if any one of the Ten Immortal Emperors approaches that state and shows signs of a breakthrough, it could very likely trigger an internal war among the Ten Immortal Emperors."

"Once the civil war among the Ten Immortal Emperors breaks out, they will completely abandon any plans for long-term investment, frantically devour everything, and monetize their combat power."

"At that time, the entire Kunxu will be transformed into an ultimate battlefield, from the Upper 36 Layers to the Underground 18th Layer. Everything in this world will become a resource for the Immortal Emperor to use in their battles."

"If the remaining Immortal Class want to protect themselves in this process, they must stick together tightly so that the Immortal Emperor will be wary and dare not easily attack them."

Ying Xintian sighed inwardly, "Until the very last moment, the Immortal Class are unwilling to sacrifice their own interests and step forward. The emergence of the Immortal Ancestor Inheritance this time is both a crisis and an opportunity to trigger a change in the situation."

"Only under such an unprecedented crisis could the Immortal Venerable and celestial beings of various sects possibly join forces."

"At the same time, if the Ten Immortal Emperors were to engage in infighting and fail to reach a consensus, the world would be unable to rewind."

"Reincarnation Immortal Emperor —is this the situation you wanted?"

A thought flashed through Ying Xintian's mind, and he made up his mind. "But for me, that's not enough. Even if the Immortal Class join forces, they can at most restrain the Immortal Emperor; it's difficult to get them to actively fight the Immortal Emperor."

"And if something were to happen to me during this period, and I were suppressed by the Ten Immortal Emperors, then there would be no one left to carry the banner."

At that moment, Zhang Yu's image flashed through Ying Xintian's mind. "It's a pity, if only you could have appeared sooner."

"Right now, all I can do is try my best to create some time for you to grow."

"You stay behind me, and in the future I've created for you, try to bring more hope to Kunxu."

As Zhang Yu pondered the "False Dao Chapter" in the "Feather Scroll," his mind was filled with a flurry of thoughts.

"The so-called false doctrine is a state between the Law Edict and the Dao Orthodoxy."

"Abandoning the vastness of its scope, allowing the Law Edict to rise to the status of Dao Orthodoxy within a small area, creating a set of objective rules within a limited scope."

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "This ' False Dao Chapter ' is indeed a shortcut, but although the Dao Orthodoxy advanced this way is fast, it will require a lot of time and accumulation to make up for it later."

He briefly compared the shortcuts to immortality offered by the "Feather Scroll," "Book of Transformation," and "Flight Book."

"By Parasitic Dao Orthodoxy, the * Feather Scroll * can quickly and extensively establish its own Dao Orthodoxy, making it truly the most comprehensive and outstanding."

"In contrast, the ' Book of Transformation ' can only inherit the Unclaimed Dao Orthodoxy of the ancients, limiting its choices. While the ' Flight Book ' can quickly establish its own Dao Orthodoxy, its scope is very limited, requiring a large amount of resources to compensate for it afterward."

As his thoughts raced, Zhang Yu's gaze fell upon the history that surfaced in the "False Dao Chapter".

"Is it another lost history? This time it is—"

Upon seeing the text, Zhang Yu was startled. "The Wanfa Immortal Emperor?"

Zhang Yu quickly summarized the text, inwardly sighing, "Even before becoming an immortal, the Wanfa Immortal Emperor sensed the existence of the World Rollback and mastered a method to transmit information before the rollback."

"By repeatedly rewinding, he constantly changed identities, accumulated experience, and in the most inconspicuous way, remained out of the sight of those in the rewinding world, continuing to grow in the cracks of history."

"He's like a minor character with no presence, playing different Background Character in one lost historical story after another, becoming a stowaway in the World Rollback."

"Until he gradually became unwilling to hide in the darkness, unwilling to have his achievements rolled back time and time again, unwilling to live in constant fear, hidden from the gaze of those Rollbackers— "

Zhan Xian sighed, "Indeed, if one could know about the existence of rollback, transmit messages, and use rollback to accumulate advantages, one could indeed achieve rapid growth."

Sect Examination Clone said enviously, "If we hadn't been noticed by the Immortal Emperor when we became aware of the existence of the rewind world, we might have had the same opportunity to hide outside the Immortal Emperor's sight, accumulate advantages through each rewind, and continuously grow stronger."

Zhang Yu said, "But the prerequisite is that, when one is relatively weak and hasn't attracted attention yet, one must have detected the existence of the rollback and mastered the ability to transmit messages. How exactly did the Wanfa Immortal Emperor manage to do that?"

At this moment, Zhang Yu was completely baffled. He felt that the already unfathomable Wanfa Immortal Emperor seemed even more unfathomable now.

At the same time, a question couldn't help but flash through his mind, "And who exactly wrote these lost histories?"

As Zhang Yu flipped through the pages of the book, he felt as if he were watching a calm observer silently recording the events that had occurred in the history of Kunxu.

Zhang Yu originally thought that his future self had obtained this information through some channel and then written it down.

But regarding this secret of the Wanfa Immortal Emperor, Zhang Yu couldn't help but wonder if he had truly written it down himself.

A fleeting thought crossed his mind, but he continued reading, mentally summarizing the information within.

"In order to resist the world's rollback and to seize the Supreme Immortal Artifact from the hands of those who initiated it, the Wanfa Immortal Emperor began a long period of observation and testing."

He gradually determined the rules of the World Rollback, confirmed the other party's identity, and found their weakness.

"The person who initiates the rollback knows nothing about the Wanfa Immortal Emperor hiding in the shadows. In the eyes of the Wanfa Immortal Emperor, the Rollbackers will gradually reveal his information in order to change the course of history. This is the Rollbackers's weakness."

"Having this information gap, the Wanfa Immortal Emperor can silently observe the opponent's performance and find their weaknesses through repeated rollbacks, continuously increasing the information gap between the two sides."

"Finally, one day, after a long period of observation—he found an opportunity to seize the Supreme Immortal Artifact."
