The Void Emperor gently patted Situ Chen's head, but his face betrayed a deep loneliness.
Born in this era, no other cultivator has been able to reach his level of strength, so the future of the fantasy world can only be supported by him.
This is the helplessness of the Void Emperor, and also the helplessness of this era.
At this moment, countless cultivators who had been watching the video were moved, and even some creatures from forbidden lands fell silent.
Regardless, the Void Emperor's power was already enough to command their respect.
All the cultivators remained silent; both the bullet screen area and the comment section were eerily quiet.
Everyone was waiting for this peerless powerhouse to slowly pass away, but the Void Emperor's next words once again excited all the cultivators watching.
"I have a premonition that even stronger cultivators will appear in the future, and I do not wish to give up now."
These words moved countless cultivators, and even under such circumstances, the Void Emperor's expression remained resolute.
"The Void Emperor is truly a hero, I admire him greatly."
"It's a pity that the Void Emperor has already passed away, otherwise I would definitely have made connections with such a person."
"There aren't many cultivators I can truly admire, but the Void Emperor is one of them."
Lines of comments floated across the top of the video. At this moment, even some cultivators whose strength was no less than that of the Void Emperor were full of admiration.
Some cultivators whose strength now surpasses that of the Void Emperor were unusually quiet at this moment, simply watching the scene unfold in the video.
The comments from outside cultivators had no effect on the Void Emperor; Situ Chen in the scene still wore a bewildered expression.
"After I am buried, you must remember not to come out of the world. Hide yourselves first, do you understand?" The Void Emperor looked at Situ Chen with a serious expression.
Situ Chen was still very young at the time and obviously did not understand what what happened next meant, but seeing his father's righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, he could only nod hastily.
"Good child, go find your Grandpa Xu."
Seeing Situ Chen nod, the Void Emperor finally revealed a relieved smile.
Only after Situ Chen turned and left did a crack appear in the resolute expression of the Void Emperor.
A hint of tenderness was revealed in his eyes—the gaze of a dying father looking at his children, filled with reluctance. However, the Void Emperor did not reveal any of this to Situ Chen.
Seeing this scene off-screen, Situ Chen was already sobbing uncontrollably. In his mind, his father's image was always so tall and firm, without the slightest hesitation even when making the final decision.
Situ Chen once thought that his father had no concept of love or affection for his children, and that he, as a child, might actually be a stumbling block for the Void Emperor.
But now, seeing the Void Emperor's concerned gaze in the scene, Situ Chen finally understood.
Despite being a great man, when standing before Situ Chen, the Void Emperor was nothing more than an ordinary father.
He probably just didn't know how to express his emotions, so Situ Chen was completely unaware of this mountain of fatherly love during his lifetime.
"Father, I will certainly carry on your legacy!" Situ Chen clenched his fist. The things his father had not finished would now be entrusted to him to complete!
Finally, under the watchful eyes of countless cultivators, the Void Emperor slowly walked into the bronze coffin. The bronze coffin looked extremely simple and floated slowly into the endless void after the Void Emperor.
This signifies the passing of a powerful figure at the Great Emperor level, and this Great Emperor was no ordinary one; he was the Void Great Emperor!
The whole world was shaken. Ordinary cultivators unconsciously lowered their heads to silently mourn for such a powerful figure. Meanwhile, in another realm, two figures quietly appeared.
Clearly, each cultivator had a different thought when facing the Void Emperor. For example, the cultivators in the Forbidden Land of Life would undoubtedly be overjoyed to see this scene.
And indeed, in the distant horizon, two figures quietly made their way toward the bronze coffin.
Those two figures came from the Forbidden Land of Life. They seemed to be quite powerful, but they concealed their aura very well. If the video wasn't focused on these two cultivators, ordinary cultivators probably wouldn't have been able to detect their presence at all.
The cultivators sitting in front of the video who witnessed this scene could no longer contain their emotions.
These two were undoubtedly powerful beings at the Supreme Realm, and their intentions in following behind the Void Emperor's coffin were self-evident.
The thought that even a great figure like the Void Emperor could not find peace on the verge of death filled the cultivators with sorrow.
"These guys from the forbidden zone are going too far!"
Have they lost all sense of shame?
"If such scoundrels lived in the same world as me, I would definitely teach them a lesson on how to behave!"
"Shameless bastards!"
"That's absolutely outrageous."
"Hopefully, the Void Emperor can teach these guys a lesson!"
"Indeed, the scene just now clearly shows that it was all a trap set by the Void Emperor to lure out someone like this."
"It's not surprising that cultivators from the forbidden zone of life do anything."
"This thing dares to compare itself to the Void Emperor? It's laughable!"
"If I can defeat them, I will definitely beat them to a pulp!"
"Hmph, a bunch of useless trash, all talk and no action."
"To utter such words, are you a cultivator from a forbidden zone of life?"
"Cultivators from the Void Forbidden Zone have appeared!"
"Shameless! You're not welcome in this video!"
"Fantasy world compilation videos don't welcome parasites like you!"
"You'd better be smart and obediently quit the Daqianwandao video website!"
Who do you think you are? Why should I listen to you?
"Speaking of which, it was this very video website, Daqianwandao, that invited me to join. It seems they really welcome me! Hahahaha..."
The appearance of a cultivator from a forbidden area clearly sparked public outrage. However, the various rules of the vast online video platform obviously did not allow these cultivators to do anything outrageous; at most, they could only vent their anger in the bullet comments and comment sections.
The arguing went on for an unknown amount of time before the group of cultivators finally quieted down and refocused their attention on the video feed.
