Into the Great Wilderness!

Nine Heavens Immortal Domain, Central Heaven Realm.

Tai Shi Star, Primordial Chaos Palace.

At this moment, Tai Chu was sitting cross-legged, with the Heavenly Dao Chessboard in front of him, which had already entered a dead end, an unsolvable dead end.

He only has one chance left, and no matter which way he goes, he will be eliminated by the Heavenly Dao in the next step.

Therefore, Taichu did not delve into this matter any further.

There was a sand tray on his right, containing a little fine sand. He was currently grasping the sand, pinching it up and letting it slip from his fingertips.

"When there are only two steps left, there is one last chance."

"But the chance of survival for this one move still ends in destruction. This Heavenly Dao Chessboard is the truest reflection of my life."

"I am doomed to die, and when this final move will be made is no longer up to me."

"For now, we can only select the next player as soon as possible."

The collector stood to the side. "Master, you've already chosen someone, haven't you?"

Tai Chu was still holding the sand, lost in thought. "Those I have high hopes for may not be qualified to see me now, and those who are qualified to see me are all incapable of shouldering this important task."

Upon hearing this, the collector pondered for a moment, "Is there really no one who can take the lead right now?"

"Even I'm not good enough, Master?"

Upon hearing this, the sand on Tai Chu's fingertips suddenly vanished. He slowly turned his head to look at the collector. "What did you just say?"

The collector quickly replied, "I have no parents; it was you, Master, who enlightened me. You are like my parents. I have no attachment to this world anymore. I would give anything to fulfill your wish!"

Upon hearing this, Tai Chu picked up the sand beside him again, saying, "The moment you said those words, you were already out of the game."

"Giving without asking is the way of Heaven; giving after asking is the way of humanity."

"Those who seek humanity will ultimately balance the scales on either side for their own selfish desires. This is called human desires on the left, and human desires controlling the heavens, which is ultimately unjust."

The collector didn't understand. "Master," he said, "If there really is someone who doesn't want to be the player, how could he possibly fulfill your wish?"

"To play the game is to be destined for destruction. I think the most suitable person is someone who knows this and is still willing to play the game."

Taichu closed his eyes, still clutching the sand in his hands.

"Though the Way is unspoken, it is known to all."

"Perhaps that person will appear soon, and the successor to destruction will also be accompanied by destruction, which will inevitably lead to another bloody storm."

The Great Wilderness, the central area.

Inside the Cave of Ten Thousand Beasts, in the Palace of the Demon Emperor.

In the Great Wilderness, there is only one Demon Emperor named Di Hong. Its true form is a sparrow, but after absorbing part of the Dragon Source, it transforms into a strange bird with three eyes that devours Yang Fire.

Because he failed to ascend many years ago, he stopped at the peak of the fifth rank, the Tribulation Crossing Realm.

Nowadays, Dihong indulges in fine wine and delicacies all day long, indulging in pleasure and wasting his time.

The Demon Emperor's Palace was filled with singing and dancing. Emperor Hong sat on the throne with his eyes closed, while female demons who had transformed into human form would occasionally come to serve him wine.

"The spiritual energy in the Great Wilderness is getting thinner and thinner, and even this spiritual wine has lost its flavor."

As Di Hong spoke, he opened his eyes. This world was becoming more and more disappointing, with the decline of spiritual energy over the past decade and the suppression of the Heavenly Dao showing no signs of abating.

All of this was telling him that this world was heading towards decline.

Unfortunately, he no longer possessed the arrogance of his youth and could no longer recklessly charge into the Heavenly Tribulation once again.

Since the final result is the same anyway, why bother struggling anymore?

"You're living a very comfortable life, aren't you?"

Um?

The Demon Emperor suddenly opened his eyes and found that all the transformed demon beasts in the Demon Emperor's Palace had been frozen in place!

A pitch-black flag-like weapon appeared above the Demon Emperor's Palace at some unknown time, releasing countless black lines that wrapped around each demon beast!

Upon contact with the bodies of those demonic beasts, these black lines all transformed into countless pitch-black ghostly hands.

The gates of the Demon Emperor's Palace had been opened at some point, and two men calmly walked into the hall one after the other.

Di Hong, still tilting his head, asked, "Human cultivator?"

"Heh, you've come for the Dragon Source again, haven't you? You humans have rushed to the Great Wilderness one after another, all for the true dragon and the Dragon Source. It was the same back then, and it seems it is the same now."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo smiled faintly. Suddenly, a giant, black hand emitting thick smoke shot out from his right forepaw and grabbed Di Hong.

"You're mistaken. I'm here to help you revitalize the demon race."

"You were very unwilling to accept your failed ascension back then, weren't you?"

"Now that I'm here, your chance has come."

After Chen Mo finished speaking, he flipped his fingers, and one pill after another appeared in his hand. "I have eleven celestial pills in my hand, which can greatly increase the power of humans or demons."

"As long as you consume these celestial pills, you will be able to overcome two obstacles, annihilate the human race, and attain immortality."

"So let's make a deal."

One day, the peace of the cultivation world was suddenly shattered.

A group of demonic beasts broke through the two major passes of the Crimson Nether Continent and Dragon Transformation Continent, and the demonic beasts invaded the two continents, marking the end of the cultivation world.

Twelve demon emperors at the Tribulation Crossing Realm suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and without exception, all of these demon emperors were of the Sequence Realm.

082 Xiangliu, 084 Jiuying, 088 Chongming Bird, 089 Qiongqi, 090 Taotie, 091 Taowu, 092 Kunpeng, 093 Kunpeng, 094 Jiufeng, 095 Qilin, 096 Bai Ze, 097 Yazi.

And number 100: Golden Crow.

Besides the Golden Crow, which was originally at the peak of the fifth rank, Chen Mo created a total of twelve fifth-rank peak Tribulation Crossing Demon Emperors.

Of course, the story doesn't end there.

Besides the Demon King, Chen Mo also created three zombies based on Shen Xiuyai.

Besides 083 Jiang Chen and 087 Han Ba, who was transformed by Xu Qingyi, the two new ones were selected by Chen Mo from the Crimson Nether Continent.

They are 098 Ying Gou and Number 0 Hou Qing.

The moment these four zombies and thirteen demon emperors appeared together, the world changed in an instant.

In particular, Di Hong, number 100, reached the first level of the sixth-order Saint Realm with the help of elixirs.

That is, the Earth Immortal Realm.

Chen Mo only took the Dragon Source and allowed the monsters to run rampant for a month.

It wasn't until what happened here that the immortals of the upper realms took notice!

"This is?"

"How could this world have become like this? What exactly happened here?"

When the immortals observed the situation remotely, they immediately dispatched several Earth Immortals and one Heavenly Immortal to quell the chaos in this world.

Unexpectedly, the immortals had just arrived when they witnessed Chen Mo's ascension.

Under the siege of the demonic beasts, all the cultivators rallied together to resist the beast tide, which also bought time for Chen Mo's ascension.

Because they knew that only when Chen Mo became an immortal could he fight against Di Hong, who was in the Earth Immortal Realm.

As the Heavenly Tribulation descended, a group of demon emperors swarmed towards Chen Mo during his Tribulation Crossing.

The immortals who had rushed from the upper realm were also startled. "Quick, if we don't act, I'm afraid..."

"Etc."

The Heavenly Immortal leading the group suddenly raised his hand to stop the earth immortals. His gaze fell on Chen Mo, and his eyes revealed an expression of disbelief.

"Wait a little longer."
