This is the border between the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and the Foreign Realm. At this moment, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are the front line of the great war between the Immortal Domain and the Foreign Realm.
This battle has lasted for countless millennia.
According to historical records, the great war began at least as early as the Immortal Ancient Era.
The battle has raged on, and several Immortal King have already perished here.
Look at the Yellow Springs River, stained red; look at the boundless desert, covered with a thick layer of sand—all formed from the weathered remains of corpses.
Beneath these gravels lie vast expanses of white bones, and even after tens of thousands of years, many bones still gleam.
Most of the bones here are broken into pieces, clearly indicating a fierce battle.
These bones come from various races, which clearly shows that the great war back then was extremely fierce.
Here grows the beautiful and alluring Netherworld Orchid, a flower that exudes an alluring fragrance, like an Immortal Divine Medicine, yet it grows in the Yellow Springs River, nourished by the bones of the dead.
This flower is different from the flowers of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths in later generations. The Netherworld Orchid of the Shrouding the Heavens era, although it will cause the body to rot after consumption, will grant the primordial spirit immortality, just like taking Immortal Divine Medicine, allowing the primordial spirit to exist for tens of thousands of years.
However, at this time, the Netherworld Orchid is vicious and domineering. Legend has it that if a person below the level of True Immortal encounters this Netherworld Orchid, their body will immediately decay and collapse.
On the other side of this boundless Gobi Desert lies a colossal city, like a universe in the sky, the legendary Imperial Pass.
The city was magnificent and towering into the clouds, resembling a universe, surrounded by countless Hundun mists and surrounded by clusters of stars.
Such a magnificent city is rarely seen in the world.
Just then, a deafening roar was heard, and a crimson Heavenly Blade tore through the endless Xukong, exuding an aura of world-destroying power.
A young man fell from the torn Xukong.
That's right, this person is Xiao Ping'an.
He traveled against the flow of River of Time through the Ash Jar and somehow arrived in this era.
At this moment, he looked ordinary, just like an ordinary human boy.
It was a faint, indistinct feeling, yet it also seemed as if his entire body contained an incomparably terrifying power of the Great Dao.
Time, space, and reincarnation—three terrifying auras of the Great Dao—flowed around his body.
Rumble
Someone immediately came to investigate, wanting to see what treasures had fallen from the starry sky.
The next moment, Xiao Ping'an's figure suddenly became blurry.
An incredibly dense power of time enveloped him, making him appear ethereal and hazy, as if he didn't exist in this world.
"The power of time is so intense!" Xiao Ping'an couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
Xiao Ping'an never expected that the Ash Jar, by constantly traveling against the River of Time, would actually travel back to the Perfect Era.
After arriving in this era, he seemed completely out of place.
It feels like I have absolutely no influence over history, not even in the slightest.
Sometimes, even the slightest movement is difficult.
He observed the world as if he were invisible.
At his level of cultivation, it wouldn't matter if he secluded himself for a million years and became a complete shut-in.
But ever since the little kid transmigrated to the Perfect World, he has been wandering around like a lost soul.
Sometimes, even experts at the Immortal King level would pass by him without noticing anything unusual.
He was enveloped by an incredibly dense power of time, which sometimes rendered him immobile and sometimes caused his body to vanish into nothingness.
He can see others, but others cannot see him.
Like a ghost traveling in this era, completely untouched by worldly karma.
It's as if it has transcended the passage of time and can look down upon all living beings.
So, having traveled to this era for so many years, I have been silently observing it.
He witnessed firsthand the great war between the two realms that began in the Immortal Ancient Era.
A brutal war between the Foreign Realm and the Immortal Domain.
He saw numerous powerful figures being born in the Immortal Domain, and one Immortal King after another being born.
He also saw those King of Immortality from the Foreign Realm conquer the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, enter the Immortal Domain, and destroy one Immortal King after another.
For example, there was an King of Immortality from the Foreign Realm, the Red King, who, after killing a Immortal King from the Immortal Domain, forcefully devoured and refined him.
He also saw the Immortal King Wuzhong and the Immortal Six Dao Reincarnation Immortal King being attacked by several King of Immortality from the Foreign Realm, and finally killed by Wu Shang with a single spear thrust.
I witnessed firsthand how the Immortal King Wuzhong's immortal Immortal Bell was shattered to pieces.
Xiao Ping'an glimpsed much of history that had never been recorded in history, and witnessed firsthand the feud between two worlds.
He also saw what the Red King, Wu Shang, Yu Tuo, An Lan looked like for the first time.
He was like a superior being, looking down on all living beings in the mortal world, but could only watch helplessly and could not interfere.
Despite possessing the strength of Immortal King Giant, it was completely enveloped by layers of incredibly dense power of time.
Time passed by day by day.
Finally, one day, Xiao Ping'an discovered that the power of time within him was fading more and more.
And he seemed to be able to move freely.
For so many years, I have been enveloped by the power of time, as if I were confined in a cage.
Among the three Supreme laws he had originally comprehended was the Law of Time Great Dao.
This power of time has deepened his understanding of the Time Great Dao.
He vaguely sensed that a colossal wave had been stirred up in the River of Time, as if a powerful being with astonishing cultivation was driving the River of Time.
"To intervene in the River of Time? To change the entire course of history, to drive its development?"
"Such formidable strength must mean he's at least a Immortal Emperor."
"If my estimation is correct, this was all done by Emperor Bone Brother."
" The Emperor Bone Brother, already corrupted by Black Blood, wants to push history forward, trigger various variables, and kill the young Desolate Heaven Emperor!"
Xiao Ping'an understood everything instantly.
The future Emperor Bone Brother seemed to have sensed the danger and knew he would be killed in the future, so he struck first, wanting to kill his enemy.
However, he couldn't directly take action; he could only act over River of Time, prompting others to do the same.
Xiao Ping'an also understood that even a Immortal Emperor could not easily make a move across time and kill an enemy from another time.
He could only influence that era through various means, constantly guiding those powerful enemies to actively seek trouble for the protagonist.
In this era, it's about time for An Lan Yu Tuo to attack the Imperial Pass, isn't it?
There seems to be a famous scene here where An Lan was showing off.
Xiao Ping'an suddenly felt that he could move freely again and emerge from the mists of time.
This feeling is very peculiar.
"Could it be that Emperor Bone Brother's intervention affected the River of Time and the world, thus indirectly affecting me as well?" Xiao Ping'an was overjoyed.
I've been in this Perfect World with Ash Jar for so many years, and all I can do is look at it but not touch it. This feeling is just too painful.
Now that he seemed to have the power to intervene in this era, he felt refreshed.
Ring ring.
A clear and melodious bell suddenly rang out in this desolate desert.
The sound of that bell seemed to drown out all other sounds in the desert and Gobi, reaching the great city.
All living beings heard the clear sound of the bell and were startled.
They witnessed the horrific scene they had foreseen.
A bullock cart slowly made its way from the Foreign Realm toward the Imperial Pass.
This is a war chariot, covered in countless marks of attack—sword marks, knife marks, fist marks...
The marks on it seem to record one glorious battle after another, and all of them were victories.
A Golden-Backed Barbarian Ox pulled the chariot, slowly flying down from the Xukong.
That was actually an old ox of True Immortal level.
The Golden-Backed Barbarian Ox was enormous, covered in crimson fur, with a golden patch on its back and two golden horns, making it appear as if it were made of Dao Tribulation Gold.
" An Lan is here too?"
"That's the chariot of Anlan, the immortal king from another realm!"
The numerous powerful figures on the gate were all terrified when they saw that the King of Immortality from the Foreign Realm had also arrived.
That clear and melodious sound suddenly became so terrifying, like the sound of death reaping.
Since the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were shut down by the Immortal Domain and abandoned as a garbage dump, they are now so desolate that even True Immortal from the Foreign Realm struggle to kill them, let alone contend with Immortal King from the Foreign Realm.
Moreover, it was An Lan, King of Immortality who had killed many Immortal King.
The King of Immortality's fame in the Immortal Domain and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths is astonishing. Since the Immortal Ancient Era, he has participated in killing the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, killing the God-Striking Stone, killing the Qilin Kirin Immortal King True Dragon Immortal King, killing the Phoenix Immortal King, killing the Immortal King Wuzhong, killing the Six Dao Reincarnation Immortal King, killing the Immortal Monk King, killing the Willow Deity, and many other Immortal King of the Immortal Domain.
It seems he was never absent from any battle.
He earned his formidable reputation through sheer force of battle.
"Hmph! During the Immortal Ancient Era, An Lan had only just risen to prominence. At that time, he had just entered the Immortal King realm and was not yet Immortal King Giant. If it weren't for the Immortal King besieging the Immortal Domain, he would have died long ago in a one-on-one duel. How could he possibly be here showing off his power?"
An elderly man with white hair Imperial Pass, gritting his teeth as he spoke.
He actually knows so many secrets of the Immortal King Anlan; it seems he has lived for a very long time.
He didn't know why the Immortal King An Lan suddenly rose to prominence in that era, but according to later legends, he used the so-called ancient artifact of origin, survived by chance, and then began to rise step by step, eventually breaking through to the Immortal King realm.
That level of strength is vastly different from that of the Immortal King in the Immortal Domain and Nine Heavens and Ten Earths who have risen to the top through their own efforts.
Generally speaking, in a one-on-one situation, it has almost no chance of survival.

However, the final result was that the numerous King of Immortality from the Foreign Realm disregarded all rules; in every battle, they would launch a siege, using overwhelming superiority to kill the Immortal King from the Immortal Domain.
The Immortal King of the Immortal Domain mostly fought their own battles, which resulted in them suffering significant losses.
Originally, there were more Immortal King than those from the Foreign Realm, but in the end, they were divided and trapped, and defeated one by one.
Now, watching An Lan's chariot advance step by step towards the Imperial Pass, everyone couldn't help but grit their teeth in anger.
That Golden-Backed Barbarian Ox did indeed look fierce and domineering, and its entire body even exuded Hundun energy.
Pulling that ancient chariot, exuding an air of superiority, striding across the land and strolling through the Xukong, creating a unique rhythm that seemed to resonate in the hearts of all beings.
As An Lan's chariot drew ever closer to the Imperial Pass, someone on the Imperial Pass roared in anger.
They angrily denounced the powerful figures from the Foreign Realm for breaking the rules, saying that if they swore a blood oath and handed over Shi Hao, peace would be restored.
They had actually sworn an oath with the blood of Immortal King, promising that as long as Shi Hao was handed over to them, they would absolutely not attack the Imperial Pass.
But now it seems that these King of Immortality from the Foreign Realm don't care about these backlashes and curses at all; they treat the oaths they made as worthless pieces of paper.
They mocked the powerful figures at the Imperial Pass, saying they were dreaming and that it was their foolishness to believe in such oaths between mortals.
The mockery of the King of Immortality from the Foreign Realm turned everyone on the Imperial Pass pale and broke out in a cold sweat.
They knew they had been deceived, but they had no way to express their grievances.
An Lan sat silently in the chariot, moving quietly forward on the oxcart.
The Golden-Backed Barbarian Ox was getting closer and closer to the Heavenly Abyss, and its speed was getting slower and slower. It was clear that it was under tremendous pressure and it was difficult to take even one step.
The terrain here is very peculiar. The so-called Heavenly Abyss is an unfathomable abyss between the Foreign Realm and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
It did not lead to the earth, but to the stars.
This is a very important protective barrier, a restriction that the Immortal King of the Immortal Domain spent countless materials and magical power to successfully create.
Even after countless millennia, this seal remains incredibly powerful, constantly hindering the King of Immortality from the Foreign Realm.
However, today more than one King of Immortality from the Foreign Realm has arrived.
"The decisive battle begins today!"
Above that Heavenly Abyss, a tragic and magnificent roar suddenly resounded, an ancient voice that shook the ages.
A colossal city suddenly appeared, suspended above the Heavenly Abyss, radiating endless light, and pressed down upon the Golden-Backed Barbarian Ox and the chariot.
That was the legendary Primordial Imperial City.
It is the front line of the battle between the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and the Foreign Realm, and below it lies the Heavenly Abyss.
Today, the Primordial Imperial City radiates endless light, shining with countless immortal runes, shaking the entire world.
A terrifying killing intent poured down like a waterfall.
An Lan made her move.
His Golden-Backed Barbarian Ox, at the True Immortal level, was utterly unable to withstand the Great Dao Laws at the True Immortal level.
This ox was already a True Immortal. Every time An Lan went out, this ox exuded an air of grandeur. It would be such a pity if it died like this.
An Lan acted immediately, reaching out to lift the object towards the sky.
Rumble.
An endless stream of Chaos Immortal Light burst forth.
The dazzling light carried with it an endless killing intent.
However, An Lan's hand held up the Primordial Imperial City, and no matter how much Hundun and light burst forth, it could not harm him in the slightest.
The creatures of the Primordial Imperial City Imperial Pass were all horrified by this terrifying scene.
The legendary Primordial Imperial City, capable of suppressing Immortal King, didn't even manage to harm a single hair on An Lan.
Is An Lan really that strong? Is he even human?
"The city stands, we stand; the city falls, we fall. It's time to fight to the death!"
From within the Primordial Imperial City came a mournful and heroic roar.
One after another, the strongest began to fight desperately.
Carrying the corpses of their loved ones, as if they were holding bombs, they frantically burned their very essence and unleashed their power, determined to perish together with their loved ones.
From the center of the Primordial Imperial City, an incomparably terrifying light burst forth, shooting towards the direction of Heavenly Abyss.
On the Primordial Imperial City, only one Immortal King remained, using his increasingly depleted essence to mobilize the power of the rules as much as possible, trying to stop and kill An Lan An Lan.
Rumble.
The entire Heavenly Abyss was ablaze, with countless Great Dao Runes transforming into flames that merged with the entire Heavenly Abyss, triggering one immortal rule after another to suppress and kill An Lan.
Faced with this reckless attack, An Lan decisively backed down.
Five imperial edicts appeared behind him, bearing the marks of five King of Immortality, and they soared into the sky.
Rumble.
There, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked; ghosts wailed and gods howled.
The five imperial edicts were like the five hands of the Immortal King, and together with An Lan, they supported the Primordial Imperial City and the Heavenly Abyss.
The Primordial Imperial City and the Heavenly Abyss unleashed their full power, countless rays of light bursting forth, and endless rules of the Great Dao dancing in the air, turning the place into a Hundun.
Countless creatures roared in fury on the Imperial Pass, but they were powerless to stop it.
With their strength, they were utterly incapable of harming the King of Immortality.
The earth-shattering roar and the incredibly fierce battle shook everyone present.
Ring ring.
The clear, crisp bell rang again.
The Golden-Backed Barbarian Ox began to move forward again, pulling the ancient chariot, about to cross the Heavenly Abyss and enter the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Countless Hundun emerged from the ancient chariot, and people only saw a crystal-clear, jade-like hand reaching out from the Hundun, or Primordial Imperial City.
The people on the other Imperial Pass were frantically trying to stop them.
Neither the First Killing Formation nor the Immortal-Suppressing Stele managed to harm An Lan after they were unleashed.
This only earned him An Lan's mockery.
"What a bunch of useless trash!" the Golden-Backed Barbarian Ox sneered loudly.
"Moo moo moo..."
Just as the Golden-Backed Barbarian Ox was mockingly closing the door on the person, suddenly, a terrifying aura shot out.
A blood-red Heavenly Blade flashed past, and the Golden-Backed Barbarian Ox's four limbs were instantly severed.
Then the four cow legs were swept back.
The Golden-Backed Barbarian Ox, however, was struggling with all its might but still couldn't restore its limbs. It could only lie on the ground, trembling and screaming in agony.
"Are there other Immortal King among the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths?"
An Lan's surprised voice rang out, unable to believe that there was another Immortal King besides the Immortal King in the Primordial Imperial City.
The terrifying aura of the Immortal King suddenly Shrouding the Heavens, vast and mighty.
The aura of Immortal King suddenly appeared, blocking An Lan and the Golden-Backed Barbarian Ox's advance.
It was a blurry figure; no one could clearly see his face or his body.
It felt as if my whole being was enveloped by an incredibly rich power of time.
He seemed shrouded in mystery.
Even King of Immortality like An Lan couldn't see through it.
Everyone sensed that the Shrouding the Heavens aura also contained the aura of the three Supreme laws: time, space, and reincarnation.
