Now that the Saint Spirit Immortal Fetus calls itself the Taichu, everything makes sense. It turns out that the Taichu really was the Saint Spirit born from the Primordial Ancient Mine.
Everyone looked at the powerful Taichu with expressions of awe.
This is a being known as Immortal Fetus, who has been gestating for countless millennia before being born. He was born in a state of perfect perfection, and dared to challenge the Stone Emperor as soon as he was born. His strength is truly unfathomable.
Taichu emerged from the Primordial Ancient Mine, and his strength was astonishing; the aura he exuded alone was enough to send chills down one's spine.
He actually dared to challenge the Stone Emperor.
As the Great Emperor of his time, the Stone Emperor also had his own pride.
He cannot shirk this challenge, much less cowardly avoid it.
Within the mysterious Mythic Battlefield, terrifying fluctuations of the Great Dao could be heard, clearly indicating that an earth-shattering battle was taking place.
That would surely be a battle of gods, the likes of which hadn't been seen in many years.
Numerous Quasi-Emperor were intently watching the Mythic Battlefield, not missing a single detail of the battle.
They also longed to comprehend the profound essence of the Great Dao from that Mythic Battlefield.
Despite trembling under the pressure of the terrifying fluctuations of the Great Dao, they did not give up their comprehension.
This was a divine war that hadn't been seen in many years. Ever since the Overlord Heavenly Venerable became an immortal, the whole world seemed to have become unusually harmonious, and such a divine war hadn't broken out for tens of thousands of years.
Generally speaking, battles Quasi-Emperor on the Starry Sky Ancient Road are already the limit.
Many Quasi-Emperor looked at that terrifying aura with great envy. They also wanted to make a leap forward and prove themselves as emperors.
"It's incredible that this Saint Spirit named Taichu can challenge the Stone Emperor."
"I wonder how this great battle will end?"
"It's incredible that the Primordial Ancient Mine could nurture such a powerful Saint Spirit."
"This Stone Emperor is so powerful, and he has fused with the Heavenly Heart Imprint. This person named Taichu is probably going to die."
"Yes, to challenge a contemporary Dao-proving figure, one must possess the strength to break the Heavenly Heart Imprint and traverse the myriad paths of heaven and earth."
Throughout history, even those who Alternative Dao Attainment have generally met with a bad end when they attempted to challenge the current Great Emperor who had fused with the Heavenly Heart Imprint.
Even those with extraordinary physical abilities cannot escape death in the end.
To be born in the same era as the enlightened ones is the tragedy of all the most outstanding talents. Everyone's path to enlightenment is suppressed in this way, and the result of forcibly challenging it can only be a dismal end.
"This Taichu is so powerful; if it had been born in another era, it would have been able to easily merge with the Heavenly Heart Imprint."
"To be born in this era, isn't that a waste of such a great opportunity?"
"We are all Saint Spirit, why must we kill each other?"
"Heh, what you're saying makes it sound like we humans don't have any feuds. Ultimately, even among Saint Spirit Saint Spirit, there are differences, just like among people—they are all different."
The numerous Quasi-Emperor were exchanging information, all of them being extremely careful to conceal it, lest the two of them sense it.
At this moment, the Mythic Battlefield was truly engulfed in chaos and destruction.
Two figures, like gods, battled in the shattered Xukong.
Taichu seemed to possess a mysterious power that allowed him to easily break through space and time and strike the Stone Emperor.
The Stone Emperor was indeed very powerful, but the next moment his body exploded.
To everyone's astonishment, the astonishing phenomenon that appeared indeed showed that the Stone Emperor was at a disadvantage.
As the Great Emperor of his time, he couldn't even defeat Taichu!
A dazzling light shone, and the Stone Emperor's body instantly returned to normal.
The once arrogant Stone Emperor now wore an extremely solemn expression.
He looked at the figure who was even more arrogant than himself, at Taichu who was radiating a mysterious light, and gripped the Fangtian Halberd tightly.
Taichu possessed a Dragon-Patterned Black Gold Sword, but as a naturally born Extreme Dao Weapon, it exuded an ancient and weathered aura, clearly indicating that it had been conceived for a very, very long time.
"You are not human, but Saint Spirit born from the Primordial Ancient Mine!" The Stone Emperor's eyes were filled with disbelief.
"You haven't even fused with the Heavenly Heart Imprint yet, so why are you so strong?"
Seeing the fear on Stone Emperor's face, Taichu smiled faintly.
"That's right, I am also Saint Spirit, but my origins are far nobler than yours. I was born in the mysterious and powerful Primordial Ancient Mine!"
"And you, you're nothing but a wild child born in some remote corner, while I am the Heavens's most beloved treasure!"
"Why am I so strong? Because my background is inherently superior to yours; you'll never catch up to me!"
"If you hadn't attacked the Primordial Ancient Mine and awakened me, perhaps I would have continued to nurture myself within the Primordial Ancient Mine for a while longer, and perhaps even become more powerful."
"At that time, I will have more opportunities to break the Heavenly Heart Imprint and traverse the myriad paths of Heaven and Earth."
"You woke me up prematurely, how are you going to make up for my loss?" Taichu stared intently at Stone Emperor.
The Stone Emperor's face darkened. The person before him was indeed Saint Spirit Immortal Fetus nurtured by the Primordial Ancient Mine, possessing such formidable strength.
It was only at the level of its Lifetime, and had not yet truly merged with the Heavenly Heart Imprint, yet it could contend with me and even subtly suppress me. It was truly terrifyingly powerful.
This was the first time he had felt the threat of death.
Moreover, he could sense that Taichu was cultivating a strange technique that could be practiced even during the gestation period. No wonder he had such great ambitions, even thinking of breaking through the Heavenly Heart Imprint and traversing the myriad paths of heaven and earth.
Although Taichu has not truly attained enlightenment, he was able to defeat me so badly simply by virtue of his Alternative Dao Attainment, demonstrating his unfathomable potential.
He could sense that the Taichu was not born hastily, but had been preparing for countless millennia, waiting to be born at this time.
But coincidentally, he himself attained enlightenment and became emperor during this same era.
Originally, it would have been easy to break through the Heavenly Heart Imprint and traverse the myriad paths of heaven and earth.
Now, breaking through the Stone Emperor's Great Dao will be much more difficult.
In a sense, it was the Stone Emperor who disrupted the Taichu plans.
However, it didn't have much impact on Taichu. Since Taichu said that, it was clear that he wanted to extort the Stone Emperor.
Stone Emperor snorted coldly and didn't respond to the question.
His eyes were icy cold. "I am the true enlightened one of this world. As long as I am here, no one can attain enlightenment."
"You think you can break my Heavenly Heart Imprint and trample on my head? You're dreaming."
Although the Stone Emperor was inwardly turbulent, he remained stubbornly defiant.
As the "King of Trolls" in the original text, he once criticized the Ruthless Great Emperor and Heavenly Emperor Ye. He was of average strength, but extremely stubborn.
Even though he is clearly losing the battle against Taichu, he still acts arrogantly.
"Really? You're really that confident?" Taichu showed no change in emotion, still maintaining an extremely confident and smiling demeanor.
It was as if he were facing not a Great Emperor of the time, but a clown.
The arrogant Stone Emperor had never been so humiliated.
With a wave of his hand, his halberd transformed into a jet-black dragon, charging towards Taichu.
He threw out both fists as if he wanted to shatter the eternal starry sky.
His scattered blood instantly ignited, burning fiercely and transforming into a crimson sea of flames that enveloped Taichu.
This is one of the forbidden supernatural powers created by the Stone Emperor.
This blood is his original essence, one of his trump cards for survival.
It seems that Taichu really put the Stone Emperor in a difficult position, forcing him to use this trump Stone Emperor to save his life.
You must understand that this is his life essence, which will really consume his lifespan and vitality, and it is almost impossible to repair it.
Despite the desperate efforts of the Stone Emperor, Taichu remained calm and composed, letting the raging flames scorch his body.
Mysterious Great Dao Runes emerged from Taichu's body; they were actually immortal runes naturally born from the Primordial Ancient Mine.
These immortal runes automatically extinguished the raging flames and even devoured and refined the Stone Emperor's life essence blood; it was truly terrifying.
Stone Emperor frowned, a cold smile appearing on his face as he prepared to unleash another powerful attack.
But the next moment, he suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.
Countless immortal runes and beams of great light burst forth from Taichu's body, forcefully extinguishing the terrifying flames.
"It is impolite not to reciprocate. Try my forbidden secret technique," Taichu said calmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a primordial spirit sword suddenly materialized from the celestial aura between Taichu's brows and flew towards the Stone Emperor.
This primordial spirit sword looked ordinary, like a knife and a sword at the same time, yet it seemed to bring down the power of the entire world, firmly locking onto the Stone Emperor's primordial spirit, leaving him with no way to escape.
With a roar, the Stone Emperor swung his halberd, which transformed into a dazzling black dragon, ready to tear the primordial spirit sword apart.
No matter how hard the Stone Emperor tried, he could not escape the pursuit of that primordial spirit sword.
An aura of destruction swept over them, erupting from the Stone Emperor's body. With a deafening roar, the Stone Emperor shattered.
His physical body and primordial spirit were reduced to fragments, scattered throughout the universe.
Although it wasn't completely dead, it was indeed smashed into pieces.
Just as it was about to recover, Taichu immediately made his move again, this time not giving Stone Emperor a chance to recover.
The supreme laws of the Great Dao bloomed in his hands, and a mysterious power forcefully sealed the fragments of the Stone Emperor.
Strands of lightning seemed to seal these fragments into different times and spaces, and then gradually eroded them in the terrifying lightning.
Those Great Perfection Saint Spirit who attacked the Primordial Ancient Mine have already quietly left Ziwei Star, and even secretly hidden themselves in the Hundun.
They really didn't want to get involved in this infighting among the Saint Spirit.
In the eyes of these Saint Spirit, it doesn't matter who you follow, especially since everyone is Saint Spirit.
In the Saint Spirit Lineage, the strong are respected. If the Stone Emperor truly cannot uphold the prestige of the Saint Spirit Lineage, then let the Taichu do so.

Faced with yet another powerful Saint Spirit, these Great Perfection Saint Spirit wisely chose to turn a blind eye and await the outcome of the great battle.
People felt the astonishing fluctuations of the Great Dao and the increasingly faint aura of the Stone Emperor, which many found incredible.
The Stone Emperor's aura suddenly erupted, and that terrifying aura shook the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
People saw an enormous Holy Spirit Method emerge, truly Shrouding the Heavens; it was the figure of the Stone Emperor.
The Stone Emperor seemed to have just awakened from a deep sleep, as if he wanted to break free from the shackles of heaven and earth and Ascension Flying Immortal.
The supreme aura shook the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, shattering countless galaxies, and causing all living beings to tremble in fear.
Many people are speculating that the Stone Emperor has unleashed his power.
After such a long battle, he must have figured out everything about the challenger. Now he's going to crush that challenger, that arrogant and ignorant Taichu.
Many Saint Spirit sensed the supreme aura emanating from the Stone Emperor and could not help but marvel at the strength of the righteous forces of this era.
Many powerful figures seemed to believe that the Stone Emperor was destined to win.
The Stone Emperor's aura was so powerful and terrifying, and it had even fused with the Heavenly Heart Imprint. Now that the challenger had dared to be so shameless, the Stone Emperor was clearly going to teach him a lesson.
The faint breath just now was merely a mouse teasing a cat.
Did Taichu really think the Stone Emperor was incapable?
People were talking about it, thinking that in the Taichu he had overestimated his abilities.
Throughout history, there have been many instances of people overestimating their abilities and challenging the Great Emperor of their time, only to become laughingstocks in history.
All great battles end with the victory of the contemporary enlightened ones.
Those overconfident challengers all ultimately met with disappointment.
Even if Taichu was a powerful being born from the Primordial Ancient Mine, he still had to face reality.
Many people think this way.
In particular, one could feel the immense aura of the Mythic Battlefield, the aura of the destruction of heaven and earth.
People felt countless stars turn to ashes under the influence of the Stone Emperor's Great Dao.
People gazed upon the horrific spectacle of time and space, and admired the courageous challenger, Taichu.
Even if we die after fighting this far, it will be a glorious defeat.
Many people are even preparing to record this in history, leaving it for future generations.
He warned future generations not to overestimate their abilities and challenge the Great Emperor of their time, or they would suffer the same fate as Taichu, dying and disappearing.
This great battle has been ongoing. People cannot see what is happening there, but they firmly believe that the Primordial One Taichu had the upper hand, only that the Stone Emperor was yielding to him.
The Stone Emperor will be the ultimate victor.
But is that really the case?
Obviously not.
In the actual battle, the Taichu defeated the Stone Emperor and gained the upper hand.
He repeatedly shattered the Stone Emperor's body, his entire body radiating an incomparably terrifying aura and laws of the Great Dao.
Although he has not yet merged with the Heavenly Heart Imprint, he can already use the immortal runes in the Primordial Ancient Mine, with the supreme immortal runes flowing around his body.
In the Mythic Battlefield, fragments of the Stone Emperor's body were enveloped by the immortal runes, being obliterated time and again.
Stone Emperor desperately tried to recover his body, but each time he recovered, his breath became weaker.
He's still stubbornly persisting, refusing to admit defeat.
He became Emperor, the pride of all living beings. In the Taichu, he was also the Saint Spirit, but he was a challenger. The Stone Emperor would never allow anyone to be stronger than himself; he considered himself the Lord of the Saint Spirit.
The culture of immortal talismans served as a cage, enveloping the Stone Emperor and binding him firmly within it.
Like a dog cage, it grew smaller and smaller, relentlessly suppressing the Stone Emperor.
The Stone Emperor's body and primordial spirit shattered time and time again.
Although the Stone Emperor is not dead yet, his condition is really bad.
At this moment, the Stone Emperor's body and primordial Divine Capital were desperately unleashing numerous forbidden secret techniques, causing his flesh and blood to glow brilliantly.
These are all Stone Emperor's innate divine abilities, divine arts bestowed upon him by Heaven.
Rumble.
An endless surge of power and the Ultimate Dao Laws erupted, unleashing the most terrifying divine battle.
Incredibly intense lightning descended, transforming the area into a sea of thunder, intent on reducing the Stone Emperor to ashes.
The Stone Emperor had used all his forbidden secret techniques, yet he still could not break free of the cage's shackles, nor could he drag Taichu to his death.
Finally, the Stone Emperor erupted.
He sacrificed himself to finally break down that cage.
He chanted mysterious incantations, as if they were the most vicious curses in history.
Faced with the Stone Emperor's curse, Taichu raised an eyebrow, then his face was full of disdain.
"I am the son of the Heavens, the Heavens favorite. Do you think such a curse will work on me?"
Taichu's face showed surprise; he hadn't expected the Stone Emperor to pull this stunt.
This curse might be terrifying to other creatures, but to the Saint Spirit, it's a joke.
"Why bother with him? Let's just capture him and imprison him inside my body."
A cold laugh rang out; it was the weapon deity of the Bronze Immortal Palace.
It turns out that the Bronze Immortal Palace had been watching this great battle for too long and couldn't resist coming over to take a look.
Seeing how weak and confused the Stone Emperor was, he actually started using some kind of curse.
Looking at the Stone Emperor whose Dao Heart had been shattered, Taichu continuously drew with his hands, unleashing countless Great Dao Runes that flew into the Stone Emperor's body.
The Stone Emperor was firmly imprisoned.
The portals of the Bronze Immortal Palace opened, automatically sucking the Stone Emperor inside.
The Stone Emperor was thus imprisoned in the Bronze Immortal Palace.
"That damned Stone Emperor, we might as well kill him and be done with it." Desolate Pagoda also rushed over.
"Yes, daring to offend our Primordial Ancient Mine, they're really courting death." Surprisingly, even the bewildered Chaos Green Lotus had arrived, having come with the Desolate Pagoda.
The Bronze Immortal Palace contained countless immortal runes, which transformed into dense immortal chains. Together with the Taichu Great Dao Runes, they firmly bound the Stone Emperor.
If the Hundun Heavenly Venerable wanted to kill the Stone Emperor, he certainly could.
However, Taichu still wanted to break the Heavenly Heart Imprint and use his head as a stepping stone to prove his Dao, so he decided to spare his life for the time being.
With his current strength, if he were to wield Immortal Artifact, he could indeed kill the Stone Emperor.
After all, he has already reached the point of attaining Alternative Dao Attainment, and with the meticulous guidance of the Overlord Heavenly Venerable, it is not surprising that his strength is astonishing.
In the original text, the Stone Emperor was killed by Ye Fan, who Alternative Dao Attainment.
At this moment, however, he was forcibly captured by the powerful Taichu and imprisoned in the Bronze Immortal Palace.
Taichu certainly didn't possess Ye Fan's strength, dealing with the Stone Emperor at this moment was no problem for him.
It was all because Taichu used the Heaven-Mending Technique taught to him by Overlord Heavenly Venerable to accumulate an incredibly profound foundation, which is why he was able to rival Stone Emperor and defeat him as soon as he was born.
Of course, the Bronze Immortal Palace and the Desolate Pagoda deserve much credit for this.
