Deep in the starry sky lay an Ancient Star Domain named Flying Immortal.
Ever since the dawn of the Mythological Era, Feixian Ancient Star had remained a unique place in the universe.
On this ancient star, the sects kept out of sight, and the myriad races were absent. Only a handful of Dao Lineages rumored to have produced Heavenly Venerables held sway here, yet even they were exceptionally low-key, and the population was sparse as well.
However, many Chaotic Ancient Savage Beasts and Primordial Era Exotic Beasts bred and thrived on Feixian Ancient Star, their roars shaking heaven and earth. Many possessed saint-level cultivation, capable of burning the heavens and boiling the seas with their every step. Their ferocity was truly formidable.
This was because the myriad Daos hung low over this ancient star, and the Great Dao flourished. Laws evolved freely between heaven and earth, making enlightenment in the Dao exceedingly easy.
It could be said that Flying Immortal was a cultivation sanctuary rarely found anywhere in the universe, ranking among the foremost of its many Life Source Lands.
The name of this star domain was equally astonishing. To dare call itself Flying Immortal spoke of tremendous audacity.
And that audacity sprang from an ancient legend here.
Legend held that Feixian Ancient Star was an Immortal Ascension Ground jointly deduced by many Supremes of antiquity. Millions of years later, the Road to Immortality would open here, bringing about the greatest event since ancient times.
Beyond that, an even more important reason this ancient star could bear the name Flying Immortal was that it housed a group who yearned for immortality more than anyone else in the world. They bore a terrifying name-Forbidden Zone Supremes.
As the deduced Immortal Ascension Ground, Flying Immortal had been the choice of many Extreme Dao Supremes throughout history when they established forbidden zones in their twilight years.
Now, no fewer than five Life Forbidden Zones stood on Feixian Ancient Star, with the number of Self-Slashed Supremes exceeding double digits. It could be called the gathering place of the most terrifying force in the universe.
This was, in fact, also the reason the myriad Daos hung low over Feixian Ancient Star and the Great Dao manifested openly. A place where Extreme Dao Supremes dwelled naturally received the blessings of the heavenly Dao and possessed an extraordinary atmosphere. That it became a cultivation sanctuary was hardly surprising.
Ordinarily, these forbidden zones were the quietest places in the entire universe. Tens of thousands of years might pass without a single stir.
But today, at this extraordinary moment when the Heavenly Heart trembled, the myriad Daos wailed, and Immeasurable Heaven Venerable was about to fall, a sudden upheaval occurred.
From all five forbidden zones in the Feixian Ancient Star Domain, places none dared set foot in, terrifying auras that shook the mortal world spread simultaneously!
It felt as though they would tear apart all the heavens and annihilate everything. Terrifying extreme Dao power poured forth unchecked, leaving all living beings trembling in fear, chilled to the bone.
In the next instant, streaks of immortal light shot skyward from the forbidden zones. Surging blood qi pressed down upon the mortal world, and finally, three figures like gods and demons stood towering between heaven and earth, their manifestations seeming to fill the entire galaxy.
These were neither phantoms of divine sense nor incarnations of the Great Dao. Those who had appeared in the world were genuine ancient Self-Slashed Supremes. Because He Mu was about to dissolve into the Dao and perish, they had actually broken free of their immortal source and emerged in their true bodies!
One had to understand that self-slashing was by no means easy for Ancient Supremes. It came at a price.
As former pinnacle extreme Dao experts of their eras, each possessed supreme blood qi that could truly overwhelm all the heavens. Even the legendary immortal source could not isolate such Heavenly Venerable Blood Qi. To seal themselves away and await the Road to Immortality, Ancient Supremes had to pay an incomparably heavy price, slashing their own cultivation to make sealing themselves within immortal source possible.
Yet even after they successfully sealed themselves within immortal source, their lifespans continued to drain away, only somewhat more slowly.
Not only that, once they broke free of their immortal source and emerged, these Self-Slashed Supremes would face the predicament of their lifespans rapidly draining away. If they could not replenish their lifespans through special means, these Ancient Supremes might be unable to seal themselves away again, even if they wished to.
For precisely this reason, unless it concerned the great matter of attaining immortality, no Forbidden Zone Supreme would ever leave the immortal source and enter the mortal world.
But today, not only had Supremes emerged from the forbidden zones, more astonishingly, fully three had broken free of their immortal source! At such an extraordinary moment, the forbidden zones' actions inevitably invited speculation.
Some ancient Great Sects in the universe knew even more and understood certain truths of the cosmos more deeply.
Records dating back to antiquity stated that any invincible Heavenly Venerable whose mastery plumbed the mysteries of creation, who had cowed the forbidden zones and dominated an entire era, often faced the greatest danger in old age, when their blood qi withered and their combat strength diminished greatly.
For Forbidden Zone Supremes would emerge to settle every karmic debt with them, sending the entire universe sliding toward some terrible abyss.
And the current Immeasurable Heaven Venerable, He Mu, undoubtedly met those conditions!
In the next instant, supreme laws surged, and extreme Dao divine might raged, as though all the heavens would be overturned!
Three terrifying figures like gods and demons stepped out of the forbidden zones on Feixian Ancient Star, radiating a dreadful might that shook the universe.
At their brows, their Immortal Platform Secret Realms burst with endless radiance. Ancient, profound runes appeared one after another, and enormous, dazzling beams tore through the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, unleashing unparalleled extreme Dao power.
The Ancient Supremes were adjusting their condition and restoring their former Dao Fruits, descending upon the world at the very peak of their strength to conquer every enemy!
Boom, boom-
In the next instant, the three Supremes finished restoring their Dao Fruits. With a single step, they appeared outside Ziwei.
Among the three Supremes, a figure wreathed in immortal light and enveloped in endless divine flame spoke first.
"Ziwei, heh. His Dao Lineage seems to be here. Then let us begin here."
His voice spread throughout the universe, lofty, cold, and merciless, like the heavenly Dao pronouncing judgment upon all living beings.
Beside him, a figure shrouded in chaotic mist spoke with equal indifference.
"Hopefully, he will risk his life for a swarm of ants. Otherwise, we may have to expend a little more effort."
Immediately afterward, the final figure also spoke, a demonic voice rumbling as though it would rend minds and souls.
"Wuliang is rather special. His true blood may have remarkable effects for us. How I crave it."
Hearing the three Supremes' conversation, the living beings on Ziwei shuddered, chilled from head to toe.
The three figures before them actually intended to put Ziwei's Living Beings to the knife, luring He Mu out so they could divide and devour him!
How terrifying was this? Nothing like it had ever been recorded since antiquity. If entered into the annals of history, it would surely be the most astonishing of events!
But Ziwei's Myriad Spirits had no time to think further. In the next instant, an unimaginably terrifying devouring force came from beyond the star. Catastrophe was already upon Ziwei's Living Beings.
Fortunately, a vast immortal radiance suddenly soared from Ziwei, transforming into a grand formation that enveloped the entire ancient star and sheltered all its living beings.
Hum-
In the next instant, within the Wuliang Dao in the Divine Continent's Southern Region, He Mu's Dao weapon, the Wuliang Dao Wheel, rose at once. Boundless immortal light blazed forth as it confronted the three Supremes.
Yet everyone knew that a Heavenly Venerable Dao Weapon and a single grand formation could never stop three genuine Ancient Supremes. It was only a matter of time before the formation shattered!
For a moment, intense despair spread over Ziwei, as though even the sky had turned gray.
With disaster looming, the situation hung by a single thread, perilous in the extreme!
Facing such a calamity, what path could Ziwei possibly take?
