" The Emperor Zun of the Mythological Era... you mean the Emperor Zun is still alive?"
A peculiar scene unfolded on the shattered Mythic Battlefield: the two opposing sides, who had been locked in a life-or-death struggle, were now exchanging ideas and discussing Dao.
When the life and death of the ancient Heavenly Lord of the Heavenly Court were at stake, Chuan Ying's eyes narrowed, his heart churning with turmoil.
He couldn't help but shake his head. That one had definitely perished; there was no other possibility. Otherwise, given the Emperor Zun's personality, if he were still alive, the Prison-Suppressing Emperor and the Longevity Heavenly Venerable would definitely not be alive now.
Especially the Longevity Heavenly Venerable.
However, Chuan Ying thought this way, but the next sound almost petrified him. His composure, which had never wavered even when fighting against the Prison-Suppressing Emperor, vanished at this moment.
" The Emperor Zun is indeed still alive!" Su Yu stood with his hands behind his back, his black hair falling to his chest, and revealed a shocking secret in a very ordinary manner. He even had the leisure to caress the Immortal Tribulation Sword Embryo his fingertips.
This is a unique artifact forged from seven kinds of Immortal Gold, Chaos Immortal Marrow, and the Xuanhuang Mother Qi Source Root. Among them, three kinds of Immortal Gold have awakened profound meanings, making it impeccable in terms of material.
"I watched him perish." Before the Divine Kun Emperor could speak, Chuan Ying teleported in from the Void, his former smiling expression gone, replaced by solemnity.
Unlike Ning Fei, the traitorous version of the First Divine General, Chuan Ying was personally trained by the Emperor Zun. He fought in Kunlun, entered the Underworld, and conquered the Milky Way. He grew up during the most glorious period of the Ancient Heavenly Court and had a complicated attitude towards the Emperor Zun, being both a teacher and a friend.
Chapter 661 The 98th Mountain Lord of Divine Silkworm Ridge, Please Ask the Ancestor to Leave His Coffin
"When the Heavenly Court collapsed, many strange things happened. The Desolate Pagoda, the Heaven-reaching Nether Treasure, and the Immortal Bell all appeared. Although the Emperor Zun was invincible, he was still no match for more than ten royal-level experts and died in battle in the Heavenly Palace."
Chuan Ying spoke of that ancient history with a mixture of melancholy and murderous intent. The hard bow behind him clanged as if it were about to burst through the air at any moment, its string fully drawn and shooting into the sun.
"Human life is but a fleeting dream. Even what one sees with one's own eyes may not be true. The Prison-Suppressing Emperor could impersonate the Netherworld Venerable to deceive the world, let alone the Emperor Zun."
Su Yu shook his head, wanting to say something more, when his primordial spirit stirred inexplicably, sensing the pull of the Great Qian, the Ninefold Immortal Tribulation was about to descend.
He formed a hand seal, using the Heaven-reaching Nether Treasure to stabilize himself. His brow shone brightly, and the pure light of his primordial spirit radiated outwards, transforming into a Dao body. His true body then ascended into the Chaos energy and entered the Ninefold Daoist Temple, beginning his journey of tribulation.
In the original story, Ye Fan's magical power was exhausted after he achieved the Great Perfection of the Sacred Body, and he was ambushed by the Supreme Being and almost died. But Su Yu is different. His Chaotic Body is connected to all the Dao, so there is no possibility that he is short of magical power. Not to mention that he also cultivates the Dao Seed Method, with the World Tree sapling taking root in his flesh and blood. His blood energy is as vast as the ocean, which is enough for him to face the battle of the extreme Dao with a calm mind.
The moment he burst into the Daoist temple, celestial light cascaded down like a waterfall, and the Nine Heavens descended upon the world. The ancient Heavenly Venerable, who had mastered the Nine Secrets: Dou, unleashed his supreme secret technique. A giant hand made hundreds of changes, instantly sealing off all his paths. His killing moves were invincible and endlessly evolving.
This is the Battle Saint Method, which has reached a state of unparalleled mastery. It can be said to be able to recreate the ultimate immortal realm, and it fully demonstrates that profound meaning.
On the other side, a Daoist priest's brow shone brightly, and his body emitted a brilliant light, transforming into a Chaos tide that rushed towards him, seeking to plunder his life force.
This is the Nine Secrets: Lin ), radiating light, the Dao descends upon the world, drawing upon all spirits, capable of devouring the Sun-Moon, and stars in A Will Eternal, impossible to defend against, a forbidden technique opened by the Annihilation Heavenly Venerable.
Faced with this terrifying situation, Su Yu's eyes sharpened, and with a single sword embryo, he dominated the heavens and the earth, engaging in a fierce battle with the nine Heavenly Venerable. Soon, crystal-clear Chaotic Blood was spilled, and the battle was extremely intense.
This wasn't Su Yu's first time facing the Nine Heavenly Venerable; he had fought them once before during the Quasi-Emperor Tribulation. Therefore, this time he was quite adept. He transformed into Heaven-reaching Nether Treasure, unleashing the Immortal Tribulation Sword Embryo with overwhelming power. Although he bled occasionally, his injuries healed quickly. The flawless True Phoenix Precious Technique was far too formidable to handle anything...
After sensing the situation of the original body, the Pure Qi Dao Body stood on the Mythic Battlefield, facing the Ancient Emperor alone, and continued the previous discussion.
He glanced out of the corner of his eye at the Supreme divine thought hidden in the boundless Void and said calmly, "Between the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Immortal Domain Realm, there is an Ascension Realm. There, Extreme Dao Supreme can transcend tens of millions of years without self-severance. This is the greatest secret of the Dharma Ending Era. The Emperor Zun also knows this; he has entered that world."
The words were spoken calmly, like a misty drizzle in early spring, without any mystical significance, but their utterance caused everyone present to change color.
" Ascension Realm grants Longevity!"
The Forbidden Zone Supreme of Big Dipper had their eyes gleaming, their hearts churning with turmoil as they pondered the truth of the matter.
If true, it would be incredibly shocking. In their eyes, becoming an immortal means existing in the world forever; to Undying is to be an immortal, regardless of the transformation of one's strength. The Ascension Realm is the ideal Immortal Domain.
"Can one become an immortal by leaving this world?"
"While we don't know if it's true or not, this young man has an extraordinary background; perhaps the Ascension Realm he speaks of truly exists."
The Forbidden Zone Supreme whispered amongst themselves, while several others who had secretly emerged were also exchanging ideas. When it came to 'becoming an immortal,' no one could remain calm.
In other words, the person who said this was Su Yu; if it had been said by other Alternative Dao Attainment, it wouldn't have caused much of a stir.
As Su Yu's strength increased, a certain Supreme being collected his past deeds in great detail and distributed them to other forbidden zones. Even the entanglement between him and the Divine Silkworm Princess was laid bare before the Immortal Source.
This newcomer had amazing luck, breaking through realms one after another in a very short time. He obtained Immortal Medicine, Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon, and Supreme Artifact multiple times. When he Saint Realm, he had collected the Nine Secrets and the Nameless Sword Art from ancient times. Later, he also obtained the recognition of the entire Nether Treasure as its master.
All of this makes one wonder about his identity. Some even believe he is a flower resembling the Emperor Zun, though this has been denied by the Lord of the Immortal Mausoleum.
Therefore, when Su Yu mentioned the World of Longevity, the attitudes of the Forbidden Zone Supreme varied. Some smiled lightly, some looked at him coldly, and some remained silent, but all listened carefully.
In a sense, the Mythic Battlefield at this point became a debate on the Dao.
The oldest group of people from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths gathered here to discuss immortality!
Time is turbulent, and years pass like sand. The phrase "becoming an immortal" overshadows the vast sky. There are too many corpses on that path, including many supreme heroes who had the potential to become immortals. But they all lie dead, dying on the Immortal Road, leaving behind a terrifying bloodstain that silences future generations.
There was Road to Immortality in the Mythological Era, in the Desolate Antiquity times. It has continued to this day and has never stopped. Countless Heavenly Venerable, Ancient Emperor, and Great Emperor have died on the Road to Immortality, but none of them have ever been able to become immortals.
The road ends, the path has its limits. No matter how amazing your talent, you will eventually have to face time, for no one can last forever.
This is the greatest gloomy illusion for all living beings in the Nine Heavens of the Dharma Ending Age, and everyone is trapped within it, unable to break free.
Who in the world can ascend to immortality and awaken from this dream? You cannot, I cannot; all beings are trapped in a dream...
"He broke into the World of Longevity? That's impossible. The Emperor Zun is no such person. If he hadn't died in battle, all those who intervened back then would have died, and that old dog, the Undying Heavenly Emperor, would never have had a chance to achieve enlightenment!"
Chuan Ying strode over, his tone resolute, his eyes burning with an intense intensity, as if he wanted to incinerate the heavens. He did not agree with Su Yu's words; the logic behind them simply did not make sense.
The Divine Kun Emperor's gaze was deep as he intently observed the young man before him. Suddenly, he asked, "You just said there were eight Heavenly Emperor. Who were they? The Lingbao Heavenly Venerable perished, and the others did not commit suicide. Where are they now?"
Upon hearing this, all the Supreme present turned to look, awaiting a reply.
Before the stone gate of the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land the Big Dipper, a tall figure appeared silently. The only surviving Great Accomplishment Sacred Body gazed at the vast ocean, his golden fur shining brilliantly. He was like an ancient statue, Eternal in the mists of time.
Faced with the words of the Kun Emperor, Su Yu's eyes opened and closed, and with a clang, he retracted the sword embryo into his brow. At the same time, Chaos mist spread and covered the area.
Outside, many Great Saint and Quasi-Emperor, gazing at the gray-shrouded Heaven and Earth Dharma Eye, were curious about what had happened on the Mythic Battlefield. However, no matter how they used their profound magic, it was useless; the Imperial Path experts deliberately concealed the truth, and no one could see or hear what was happening inside...
"After the Chaotic Ancient Era, the first person to Tribulation Crossing Heavenly Venerable was the Source Emperor and the Underworld Emperor. He was also the first Heavenly Emperor of the Dharma Ending Era..." Su Yu said calmly.
" The Underworld Emperor..."
In the void, the burly man with the bushy beard murmured this title, his expression incredibly complex.
The opponent's research on the Reincarnation Seal is unprecedented and unparalleled. He can be called the patriarch on this path, and he can completely control those in the Corpse Dao, making them the people he fears most.
The other party certainly deserves the title of Heavenly Emperor; at least, he acknowledges that.
"The second is Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, the Dao Venerable who embarked on the Red Dust Immortal Path in the mortal world, stopping at his sixth incarnation. The third is Emperor Zun, Kunlun, forged immortal artifacts, and established the Heavenly Court. The fourth is the Undying Heavenly Emperor..."
"What is Heavenly Emperor? They were all once invincible under heaven. If they were to truly fight at the pinnacle, the outcome would be uncertain. Only the battle will tell." As the Undying Heavenly Emperor was mentioned, a detached voice rang out in the boundless Void, arrogant, cold, and domineering.
"The one who can kill a Dao-achieving master of this era without taking damage is the Heavenly Emperor!"
Su Yu responded, glancing indifferently at that spot.
The Mythic Battlefield fell silent, as if something was being suppressed. The person in the shadows remained silent, with only wisps of Chaos winds flowing down, casting a hazy glow over the area.
"Next is the Silkworm Emperor, the progenitor of the Divine Silkworm Clan, a metamorphosis expert who transcended time and space with ten transformations."
"Nonsense! The God Emperor died and was buried in a nine-layered stone coffin. I personally witnessed the corpse's malevolent aura and deathly energy emanating from the coffin, utterly devoid of life!"
"Although the God Emperor lived a long life, he did indeed pass away peacefully..."
The controversy surrounding the fifth person was even greater, with more than one Supreme being speaking out against Su Yu. The Undying Heavenly Emperor was half true and half false, but the fact that the God Emperor's corpse was still there was the strongest evidence, which could not withstand any further deduction.
Even Gai Jiuyou and Chuan Ying fell silent, also finding the matter too bizarre.
Despite the doubts of the crowd, Su Yu remained calm, beckoned with his hand, and a tiny stone coffin appeared in his hand. It was the Mythological Nine-Layer Coffin he had obtained in the Yuhua Ancestral Temple.
"The path to transformation lies within!"
Some ancient people recognized the coffin and said, "The coffin that buried the God Emperor!"
The stone coffin was immediately drawn to the attention of everyone present. Some of the Supreme sneered, and some even looked forward to seeing the Chaos Body make a fool of itself.
Watching a peerless powerhouse slap someone in the face is far more interesting than lying dormant.
" Chaos, are you planning to exhume the body for an autopsy? As far as I know, one of your concubines is a descendant of the God Emperor, and she even bore you a child." In the Void, a Supreme Being spoke, his tone somewhat playful. This change in emotion was only directed towards those of the same level.
"A corpse? The God Emperor isn't dead, so what corpse is he?" Su Yu's eyes were sharp as he said calmly, "Countless ages ago, coffins weren't for burying people, but rather the cultivation caves of powerful beings. They were unaware of the passage of time!"
Then, with a flick of his sleeve, he prepared to open the Mythological Nine-Layer Coffin.
Although it was somewhat disrespectful, it was also a safe move—through the veins of the World Tree, Su Yu sensed the auras of the five broken-sealed Supreme, all of whom still possessed blood and energy.
This kind of formation is obviously not there to discuss the Dao with him; what follows is bound to be a life-or-death battle. Su Yu is naturally fearless; he will pacify the Nine Heavens and usher in the era of Flying Immortal!
The first battle is the decisive one; a single battle will decide the fate of the world!
Of course, although he had made the decision, Su Yu still took these opponents very seriously. The six Supreme in good condition, along with the killing formations of the Primordial Ancient Mine, the Heavens, the Immortal Mausoleum, and the Divine Ruins, made this the most terrifying battle since the Mythological Era.
More importantly, his ability to influence the Heavenly Heart Imprint would be greatly weakened in this chaotic battle. How could he possibly be a match for six Supreme Beings on his own? It wouldn't be difficult for them to Ultimate Sublimation their power.
In this situation, calling for outside help becomes essential; the God Emperor is merely the most superficial layer of insurance...
The stone coffin was very small, less than the length of a palm and only four fingers wide, making it look very miniature.
Its style is simple and natural, with blurry engravings. Upon closer inspection, one can see that they are the Sun-Moon, stars, flowers, birds, fish, and insects, all of which are very ancient and have existed since time immemorial.
As Su Yu's palm struck down, countless runes flashed, and a hazy, Chaos mist flowed, drawing upon all the primordial energy of heaven and earth. The patterns spread around the Mythological Nine-Layer Coffin.
For Quasi-Emperor, opening the Emperor's Coffin requires a sacrifice of their primordial essence and blood, but this restriction is as fragile as a cicada's wing before Great Accomplished Chaotic Body, easily torn apart.
With a crack, the Chaos patterns fell forcefully, instantly splitting open the eight layers of cracks on the stone coffin. Opening eight layers of small coffins in a row, Su Yu's strength was definitely at its peak, something that only an Emperor-level expert could accomplish.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on the last coffin, awaiting the moment of its unveiling.
"Father-in-law, please forgive any disrespect. The mortal world is the path of the Dao Ancestor ( the Dao Ancestor is Quasi-Immortal Emperor ), why lie in a corpse in the Sacred Ruins? You've missed too much by sleeping like this. I'm doing this for your own good..."
Su Yu silently apologized, then made up his mind and unleashed a purple light handprint. In an instant, seven-colored divine light soared into the sky, and powerful fluctuations surged violently, like a magnificent flame burning, flying towards the Primordial God Coffin.
The final, ultimate coffin was only the length of a thumb, simple and unadorned, but the malevolent energy within had already begun to brew, like a massive storm brewing.
"Snap!"
The powerful purple handprint lifted the lid of the Emperor's Coffin, revealing a shallow crack. Immediately afterward, a vast and boundless aura of Emperor Baleful Qi surged forth, spreading across the Chaos Realm like a Wuliang ocean.
"Heh, with such dense corpse energy, what else could it be but an Emperor's corpse?" A Supreme Void God sneered, concluding that the God Emperor was dead, his gaze becoming increasingly mocking.
Deep within the Void, the Corpse Emperor and the Myriad Dragon Emperor stood side by side. The former, with a solemn expression, remained silent. He was the second person after the Chaotic Ancient Era to achieve spiritual power over a corpse and to attain enlightenment again in his second life, reaching the pinnacle of his understanding of corpses.
The presence of Emperor Baleful Qi emanating from the stone coffin doesn't prove anything; whether it indicates life or death depends on the condition of the original body.
As the final coffin lid opened, a terrifying ripple spread outwards. The creatures within the imperial coffin were far too formidable. The imperial might swept across everything like a hurricane, seemingly gentle, yet even the slightest gust was enough to oppress Quasi-Emperor.
If those standing here weren't all experts of the highest rank, this opening of the coffin would have inevitably caused a great disaster...
" Su Yu, the 98th generation master of Divine Silkworm Ridge, requests the patriarch to come out of the mountain!"
Su Yu silently recited in his heart (he and the Divine Silkworm Princess were one, and he could also be called the Lord of Divine Silkworm Ridge ), then rolled up his sleeves, and the stone coffin shook, almost turning over. The Chaos energy inside the coffin surged, like a vast ocean, sweeping across the entire Mythic Battlefield.
Finally, with a deafening roar, a humanoid being was jolted out of the coffin. The moment it appeared, an aura of supreme power swept across the heavens and earth, causing the very fabric of the universe to groan and the Great Dao itself to prostrate itself at its feet.
