God Emperor Bead Emerges

Zhu Kun chuckled to himself. His Dragon God was truly a shrewd businessman. The contents of the Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion had already been emptied, yet he was now putting the Ancient Jade up for auction. Such a mind was simply manipulating the world at will.

"Where is the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion located? Please inform me as soon as possible, Lord Yun Shan."

A group of powerful figures were shaken and began to ask questions.

Yun Shan was flattered and overwhelmed that these powerful figures addressed him as "Master." He hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Esteemed Masters, there's no need for such formalities. The location of this cave was revealed to the public by my ancestor. As for its location, you might not expect it, but it's right beneath our feet."

Underfoot?

Gu Yuan and the others frowned, wondering if the cave was located underground in the academy.

"This cave is indeed underground, but to open it, eight pieces of Tou She Ancient God Jade are needed to raise it up," Yun Shan said.

"I see," everyone exclaimed in realization. It seemed that as long as they collected all eight Ancient Jade, they could begin to unravel the mysteries of the cave.

"Such a great treasure, why doesn't Lady Ye Qianqian keep it for herself, but instead tells us about it?" Just then, the old fox Gu Yuan suddenly raised a question.

This Yun Lan Ancestor is a Dou Di powerhouse. The fact that she would tell outsiders the secrets of the Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion instead of exploring the cave herself must be suspicious.

The other family Clan Leader, having recovered from their initial surprise, also agreed with Gu Yuan's proposal.

Yun Shan sneered and said, "My ancestor's strength is extraordinary. Even though Tou She Ancient God is also Dou Di, he wouldn't be taken seriously by my ancestor. Do you think my ancestor would care about Tou She Ancient God's little treasure?"

My ancestor simply cherished talent and wanted to help those who had been stuck below the Dou Di achieve it. Since you don't appreciate it, then leave now!

As Ye Qianqian's number one die-hard fan, Yun Shan immediately defended Ye Qianqian's reputation and would not allow others to slander or defame her.

Gu Yuan hurriedly said, "Lord Yun Shan, please don't be offended. I was just being petty and judging Lord Qianqian by my own standards."

Since that's the case, why don't they go down to the academy's underground first and explore together?

The Hun Tiandi said, "Gu Yuan, I think we should cooperate, gather all the Ancient Jade, open the Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion, and seek the opportunity to become emperors together. What do you think?"

Now that the cave has been found, the only way to open it is to collect all eight pieces of Ancient Jade. The Hun Tiandi happens to have one piece in his possession, so unless he takes it out, no one can open the cave.

"Elder Gu Yang, please keep this Ancient Jade safe." Gu Yuan handed the ancient Ancient Jade in his hand to Gu Yang beside him, and sneered at Hun Tiandi, saying, "We now have a total of seven Ancient Jade keys, which means we have an absolute advantage. On the contrary, as long as we take the Ancient Jade from you, we can open the cave at any time. Why should we cooperate with you?"

Having said all that, the Clan Leader of the other families all regarded the Hun Tiandi as prey, surrounding him in droves. Faced with the opportunity to become emperor, even those who were not as strong as the Hun Tiandi were willing to take a gamble.

In this situation, only Xiao Xuan gave up the fight and stood there quietly watching without saying a word.

"Hahahaha!" The Hun Tiandi laughed loudly, "You still want to snatch the Ancient Jade from my hands? I think you should obediently hand it over!" He said to the Gu Yang behind Gu Yuan, "It's time."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the Gu Yang of the Ancient Clan broke away from the camp and joined the Hun Tiandi's side.

Gu Yang smiled, holding two pieces of Ancient Jade in his hand. One was given to him by Gu Yuan, and the other belonged to the Ancient Clan.

Gu Yuan was shocked. "Gu Yang, you dare to betray me?"

He never expected that Gu Yang would suddenly betray him and become the Hun Tiandi's lackey.

Gu Yang laughed and said, "I am a member of the Soul Clan, so how can I talk about betrayal?"

Holding the two Ancient Jade pieces, the Hun Tiandi called out to the crowd of other families and forces, "Come over here too!"

In an instant, five more people emerged from the five clans of Medicine, Stone, Spirit, Thunder, and Flame. These five were all high-ranking members of their clans, and each of them took out Ancient Jade and handed it to the Hun Tiandi, allowing the Hun Tiandi, a collector, to collect all eight pieces of Ancient Emperor Jade at once.

These were all spies secretly planted by the Hun Tiandi in other families. Now that their opportunity had arrived, they had all shed their previous appearances and revealed the unique aura of the Soul Clan's powerful members.

"Hun Tiandi, you..." Gu Yuan and the others were furious, watching helplessly as the Ancient Jade was taken away.

"Hand over the Ancient Jade."

Gu Yuan and the others immediately launched an attack on Hun Tiandi. Hun Tiandi barely dodged the attack and engaged in an earth-shattering battle with the group in the sky above the academy.

The two sides fought fiercely. Although the Hun Tiandi was exceptionally strong and could fight against overwhelming odds, it was ultimately not a long-term solution.

"Hun Tiandi, give me all the keys, and I will open the cave!" Just then, Nihility Devouring Flame shouted hurriedly from the side.

Taking the Ancient Jade, Nihility Devouring Flame flattened the deserted Heaven Burning Qi Refining Tower below the academy. In an instant, a Magma Sea appeared below. As everyone looked over, they saw that the whirlpool on the surface of the magma sea had suddenly expanded more than ten times!

"Boom boom boom!"

As the vortex expanded, a massive pillar of magma, thousands of feet tall, suddenly erupted from the surface of the magma sea, affecting many on both sides. The intense heat and impact caused numerous casualties among the powerful warriors.

Gazing at the raging sea of lava, the ecstasy in Nihility Devouring Flame's eyes grew ever stronger. He could feel the Tou She Ancient God Jade in his hand suddenly becoming unusually hot.

"Whoosh!"

A colossal wave of lava, thousands of feet high, suddenly surged up and then crashed down. As it splashed lava everywhere, the rapidly spinning vortex of lava gradually slowed down.

As the rotation slowed, massive magma began to rise from the surface of the magma sea. The crimson magma spread rapidly, and as it spread, an ancient stone gate, standing tall between heaven and earth, slowly emerged from the magma under the fervent gazes of the onlookers.

The pupils of the Hun Tiandi and the others suddenly contracted.

The Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion has appeared!!!

"Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion!"

The eyes of the Hun Tiandi shone with an astonishing light at this moment. Even with his composure, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion when he saw this treasure he had been pursuing for thousands of years.

"Finally, I've found you..." he murmured to himself, and finally couldn't help but laugh wildly, his laughter echoing like thunder across the sky.

"So this is the legendary Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion..." Xiao Xuan was slightly lost in thought. He had once gone crazy for this cave.

However, he had long since become indifferent to it. How could a small cave dwelling compare to the appearance of the secret treasure of heaven and earth that Taiyi Zhenren had mentioned?

"Teacher, I sense the aura of Heavenly Flames!" Xiao Yan, who was in the distance, suddenly sensed the presence of the Fallen Heart Flame. Under the command of Old Yao, he, as One-Star Dou Saint, was the first to grab the Fire Python formed by the Fallen Heart Flame.

With this mature Fallen Heart Flame, I believe his Flame Mantra will definitely evolve once again.

"Huh, what's that?"

Just then, to everyone's surprise, a huge stele suddenly floated above the cave, filled with the power of death.

"The Nirvana Stele!"

Ye Qianqian was suddenly startled. Wasn't this the very same stele that had been buried beneath the Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion?

How did this inscription suddenly appear?

"Snap!"

"Snap!"

The inscription on the stele began to crack inch by inch, and finally, with a sudden bang, it exploded into a cloud of dust, forming a dark, deathly aura.

As the Qi died, it erupted with a large amount of Origin Qi, as well as faintly visible beads the size of walnuts, which floated in the air.

"This must be a treasure."

Hun Tiandi and his group took the lead and began to scramble for those magical beads.

Ye Qianqian casually grabbed a handful and was shocked to find three God Emperor Bead engraved with the character "Emperor." The Divine Venerate Bead could advance a person to Dou Zun, and the Divine Sacred Bead could advance a person to Dou Sheng. Could these God Emperor Bead then advance a person to... Dou Di?

The death energy was so immense and terrifying that some Dou Zun and Dou Sheng Expert were instantly corroded to nothing the moment they came into contact with it. However, Gu Yuan and the others were so powerful that they risked their lives to each obtain one.

"I can feel that this bead contains a large amount of Origin Qi. If I refine it directly, I will definitely be able to achieve the glory of becoming Dou Di." Xiao Xuan held a God Emperor Bead and looked at it in surprise.

Legend has it that within the Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion, there exists an Emperor Grade Nascent Pill containing Origin Qi, but compared to this thing, it is worlds apart.

"Hahaha, I, the Emperor, have finally emerged!"

Just then, a girl's voice suddenly came from the depths of that space filled with black death energy.

The sound was filled with an ancient, primal aura, instantly permeating the entire world. Under that aura, all things fell silent, and even powerful figures like Gu Yuan and the Hun Tiandi felt a sense of dread.

It was an aura that transcended this world!

"Who, who's playing tricks in there? Come out here!" The Hun Tiandi was terrified. He forced himself to calm down, but then he heard a deafening voice come from the black death aura once again.

"Life is death, and death is also death; life and death both ultimately lead to death."

Victory means death, defeat also means death, victory and defeat are common occurrences, and death is inevitable.

Love is death, hate is death, and the mixture of love and hate is also death.

Sorrow is death, joy is also death, sorrow and joy are both ultimately death.

No matter how glorious you are, before me... there is only death!!!
