"Taiyin and Taiyang, which is weak and which is strong? With Yin and Yang united, one reigns supreme beneath heaven."
Crown Prince Tianzhou trembled, recalling that ancient legend, a saying that sounded almost like a curse.
Since ancient times, a single tradition had rarely produced two emperors. Even cultivating other ancient scriptures to great perfection could not lead to Dao attainment; one would stop at Quasi-Emperor.
Only the Human Race's Lunar Yin Immortal Scripture and Solar Yang Immortal Scripture were exceptions, with a legend that cultivating Yin and Yang together could produce a Human Emperor.
Had such a tale come from another race, the universe's myriad beings would naturally have dismissed it as a rumor. It was as though a single road could not be traveled twice: once a predecessor attained the Dao, the path was sealed for those who followed, leaving no hope.
Yet the Human Race alone was different. In the Primordial Era, each race had one emperor, but only the Human Race had given birth to two.
In the Desolate Antiquity Era, their achievements became even more extraordinary. Human Great Emperors emerged like a geyser, their brilliance unparalleled, beating even the Life Restricted Areas into silence.
Thus, cultivators of the myriad races suspected that successive Human Great Emperors had all drawn, to varying degrees, upon the Lunar Yin Immortal Scripture and Solar Yang Immortal Scripture, creating the miracle of multiple emperors from one race.
"Exactly. It was that legend that moved Da Yi."
Golden Crow Emperor Jun spoke calmly, as though stating a fact. "He wanted to become an emperor!"
Da Yi was an outstanding hero of his generation. How could a woman have shaken his Dao heart, or the Primordial Ancient Star's overtures have changed him? Only he himself could make that choice-only Dao attainment!
