Across heaven and earth, presences soared into the sky, and ancient, timeworn presences awakened.
There was imperial might, there were Supreme presences, and countless descents.
Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi also grew five or six times denser in an instant.
The terrifying sight sent the world into an uproar.
"How is this possible? Has the great tide of heaven and earth fully arrived?"
"With Spiritual Qi recovering like this, are countless powerful cultivators going to appear again?"
"Damn it, if that's the case, where are ordinary people like us supposed to go?"
"Look, in the direction of the Asura Sea! What intense blood-colored light!"
"Could this be the Asura Race emerging?"
Everyone was shocked.
The Asura Race was an extremely powerful race, bloodthirsty by nature.
It had once been one of the races that slaughtered the most humans.
"Huanggu, I, Blood Asura, am out! I told you that you couldn't kill me! Haha!"
The voice rang out, along with swathes of terrifying blood mist.
They reverberated between heaven and earth, their terrifying presence shaking the world.
At that moment, the terror reached its utmost extreme.
"The Blood Asura Lineage of the Asura Race? To think they were suppressed in the Asura Sea."
Ye Changge was naturally the first to sense it.
The Asura Sea was one of the Southern Region's most dangerous forbidden lands.
To think it was actually a place where the Asura Race was suppressed.
Under everyone's shocked gazes, boundless blood mist spread outward.
In another direction, deep within the North Sea, a soaring Demon Dragon presence erupted.
"Haha! Flame Emperor, you suppressed me back then, but I told you that when heaven and earth shook and the cosmos overturned, I would return!"
"All demons of the North Sea, gather at the Demon Emperor Palace!"
The Demon Dragon's voice exuded boundless imperial might, shaking all directions.
Yao Qi soared into the sky and shook the North Sea. For a time, countless sea races trembled in fear and descended upon the Demon Emperor Palace.
The instant the Demon Dragon emerged, soaring imperial might spread across heaven and earth from beneath the Undying Volcano in the Western Region.
A thunderous boom shook the heavens, and a pillar of red light illuminated the sky.
"Haha! Flame Emperor, I, the Undying Old Man, have finally escaped! Your world and your family can just wait to be taken care of!"
Everyone who heard this was utterly shocked.
The Undying Race, the Undying Old Man.
Countless were shocked.
Every one of these races was an extremely terrifying existence.
As for the Undying Old Man, he was rumored to be a Great Emperor who had been suppressed beneath the Undying Volcano for offending the human Great Emperor, the Flame Emperor.
Now that Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was recovering, they awakened one after another, broke their shackles, and returned to the world.
Scenes like this unfolded everywhere.
Three days later, everyone was cultivating quietly.
The sky above the Primordial Forbidden Zone suddenly split open, and terrifying presences descended upon the world.
Boundless imperial might spread out from within.
"What terrifying imperial might! This presence actually surpasses a Quasi-Emperor's, yet lacks a Great Emperor's dominance."
"Could this be a previously suppressed Great Emperor coming for vengeance after awakening?"
"Vengeance? Against the Primordial Forbidden Zone?"
"Now there's a good show to watch. Who's provoking the Primordial Forbidden Zone? Truly a newborn calf unafraid of the tiger, daring to challenge the Primordial Forbidden Zone."
Everyone waited for a good show. The Primordial Forbidden Zone was a forbidden zone of the human race. Who in the Southern Region did not know that a Great Emperor presided over it? Even someone who had been a Great Emperor before being suppressed would no longer possess their former cultivation upon emerging, much less when a true Great Emperor presided here.
Kill, kill, kill!
Give me back my life!
Damn it, damn it!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk."
"Hahahaha!"
The Asura Race descended, its boundless blood mist carrying boundless resentment. At that moment, the terror reached its utmost extreme.
Even ordinary people would suffer terrible headaches when faced with this blood mist, showing just how terrifying Blood Asura of the Asura Race was.
"How dare you! Does your Asura Race wish to be exterminated?"
Aotian was utterly cold.
Without waiting for the enemy's powerful cultivators to speak, he appeared alone before the blood mist.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. A human Quasi-Emperor. Such rich blood and vitality, such vast imperial might. Very good. If I kill you, perhaps I can advance another step."
As he spoke, a blood-colored humanoid mass of mist walked out.
Aotian showed no emotion, vast imperial might surging around him.
He slashed his sword.
Clang, clang!
Crack, crack!
Rumble!
"Are human Quasi-Emperors all this brave? Doesn't he know that Lord Blood Asura was once an unrivaled powerhouse who overwhelmed countless races and slaughtered humans until they fled?"
"Exactly. Still, it's surprising that humans still have Quasi-Emperors after all these endless years."
"Stop standing around. Slaughter your way into the human faction so we can recover quickly."
Within the blood mist, countless powerful cultivators began to move.
Yet all of them were bounced back by an invisible force.
"There's a formation here! Damn it!"
"This faction actually has such a powerful formation. Everyone, let's break it together."
A group of Blood Asura clansmen began searching for weaknesses in the formation, intending to break through it.
Instead, all of them were blasted into blood mist by the backlash.
"Damn human! You killed my clansmen! I'll tear you apart alive!"
"Tear me apart alive? Are you worthy?"
As Aotian spoke, a cold-iron sword appeared, and he slashed down.
Blood Asura was instantly sent flying.
"How are you so strong? Impossible! I've surpassed Quasi-Emperor! Why was I sent flying by a mere Quasi-Emperor like you?"
Various emotions intertwined, filling Blood Asura with fury.
Back then, he had been a peak Great Emperor.
Had that strange Great Emperor Huanggu not intervened, who on this continent could have suppressed him?
Yet now, just after emerging, he had encountered a monster whose cultivation realm was lower than his but who could still injure him.
Aotian could not be bothered to respond and swept his sword out again.
With a crack, the blood mist was instantly slashed apart.
A man dressed in blood-colored robes fell out of it.
His face was filled with astonishment, his eyes fixed on Aotian.
It was as though he had seen the greatest terror in the world.
"How is this possible? Who exactly are you?"
"I'm your father! You dared invade our Primordial Forbidden Zone. If I don't strip your pants off today, I'll have let the human race down!"
As he spoke, the two powerful cultivators each unleashed a terrifying attack.
Gray Sword Qi resembled a thousand-meter-long giant sword, while blood-colored Sword Qi likewise slashed out for a thousand meters.
The two terrifying attacks collided.
Blood Asura flew backward, his blood-colored sword projection shattering instantly.
This bizarre scene left Blood Asura utterly stunned.
"Damn it! How can this be? How are you so strong?"
Blood Asura felt an urge to curse.
This was infuriating.
"Haha! This Blood Asura actually tried to provoke Elder Aotian. Doesn't he know Elder Aotian can fight across cultivation realms?"
"Exactly. Mere power beyond Quasi-Emperor-would our Primordial Forbidden Zone fear that? Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous."
"It truly is our good fortune to cultivate in the Primordial Forbidden Zone."
Within the Primordial Forbidden Zone, some disciples who had come out to eat filled their plates and sat on tables, enjoying their food while watching the Quasi-Emperors battle.
If watching was not satisfying enough, they could even offer a few comments. This was simply a little cow on a plane-utterly sky-high badassery.
"To think even the Quasi-Emperors of the Primordial Forbidden Zone are this strong?"
Elsewhere, Zhikong, who had just finished cultivating, watched the scene with astonishment written all over his face.
"Senior Brother, how wonderful would it be if we could keep cultivating here?"
"Yes. Not only is the Spiritual Qi dense in this Primordial Forbidden Zone, but they also shower us with cultivation resources. It's simply inhuman."
"That's nothing. The key is that the Primordial Forbidden Zone fears no person, no faction, and no race. It's safer here than anywhere else."
Beside Zhikong, the Eighteen Arhats wore expressions of admiration and envy.
The Primordial Forbidden Zone was simply too wealthy.
Any random Quasi-Emperor could thrash someone with power beyond Quasi-Emperor.
It was simply like a dream.
