The Human Emperor Reappears! Sparing Your Life Is a Blessing!

This sudden turn of events sent chills down everyone's spines, making them feel like their souls were leaving their bodies, and they instinctively retreated from the hall like madmen.

In the blink of an eye, a terrifying, powerful aura, carrying endless Savage Wilderness and violence, suddenly leaked out from behind the door!

This aura was far too fierce, carrying the savagery and brutality of the primordial Primordial Wilderness.

The mere aftermath of the leak was enough to frighten the young Aristocratic Clan in the palace, whose inner strength was weak and whose cultivation of Nature Cultivation was insufficient, so much so that they knelt on the ground, trembling all over, and did not even have the courage to raise their heads.

Even Xie Lintian and the others retreated repeatedly, almost reaching the entrance of the hall.

This fierce aura not only swept through the entire Human Emperor's Temporary Palace, but also penetrated the cave's barrier in an instant, spreading beyond the cave!

The experts from all the External Scenery studios changed color at the same time.

This terrifying aura----

One of the External Scenery figures who had supported the recent battle in the Northern Dark Continent exclaimed in shock, "Great Sage of the Remnant Clan?!"

"Why is the aura of Great Sage of the Demise Clan leaking out here?!"

Inside the Human Emperor's Temporary Palace.

Everyone could sense that something was rapidly approaching from behind the door!

The eerie heartbeat grew louder and more frequent, and several people collapsed to the ground, their hearts ruptured, spitting blood!

Yu Tunzhou's expression was extremely grave.

Is that Great Sage Demon Race saint, banished by the Human Emperor for countless ages, really about to break free from his seal?!

He turned to look at An Ruyu, only to see that her eyes, which were always smiling, were now as deep as a cold pool, and her aura had become profound and indescribable. Behind her, a faint, ethereal figure was slowly gathering.

"What's the situation now? Is it still under the control of your Incense-Smelling Cult?" Yu Tunzhou asked telepathically.

An Ruyu said with unusual seriousness, "These guys are simply favored by the Heavenly Dao." Using a blood sacrifice to attract the attention of their ancestors, across such a vast distance in time and space, the probability couldn't be smaller, yet they stumbled upon it. Or perhaps the Demon Race had made thorough preparations all along, and today's scene was merely the final step in their plan?"

She had her suspicions, but it was too late to confirm them.

She took a deep breath, looked at Yu Tunzhou, and said softly, "Young Hero Guo, it seems we'll have to fight to the death."

Desperate?

Yu Tunzhou's lips twitched as he desperately tried to stop the Great Sage of the Demon Race?!

If this "Great Sage" refers to someone of the same level Brother Monkey, then the one appearing behind the door must at least be a peerless Demon Race king like the Bull Devil King. They'd rather die than risk that!

"If I'm unlucky, I'll have no choice but to return to the Houtu with Young Hero Guo."

An Ruyu sighed, it was hard to tell how much of it was true and how much was false, but her expression was extremely calm, as if she had already disregarded life and death.

"No need." Yu Tunzhou took a deep breath. "Since the Incense-Smelling Cult claims to be the lineage of the Human Emperor, it must possess cultivation methods from the Human Emperor's lineage. What kind of inheritance do you currently have?"

An Ruyu paused for a rare moment, her beautiful eyes filled with doubt as she asked, "What does Young Hero Guo intend to do?"

"Enough with the idle talk, do you actually possess the Human Emperor's Technique?"

"Our sect is the legitimate successor of the Human Emperor, and naturally possesses many of the Human Emperor's legacies, including the subsequent Gang Qi cultivation methods of the [Spark Instruction], and even the Cultivation Method for forging the True Form Dharma Body. All of these are available within our sect, as long as Young Hero Guo is willing to join—"

"Send me the secret! Now! Any method will do!" Yu Tunzhou interrupted her, "Laozi don't want to be buried with you!"

An Ruyu gave Yu Tunzhou a deep look. Although she didn't understand, the matter was urgent, so she still used her Primordial Spirit to pass on a method of transforming qi into qi, which was a follow-up method of the Spark Instruction Qi Ingestion Method.

Yu Tunzhou directly "throw" the method to the Muscle-Tendon Changing Classic, and, acting as the client, demanded. "Modify it as before!"

"I want to see the Human Emperor!"

As the words fell, golden Sanskrit characters filled the sky, and various wondrous phenomena arose, with the eight gilded characters being the most dazzling, each one like a great sun hanging in the air:

[All laws are equal, without any distinction of high or low.]

The next moment, Yu Tunzhou's mind was swept up by a vast power and once again entered that mysterious realm, like a fish leaping out of a lotus pond and crashing into a vast and boundless High Antiquity world!

High Antiquity.

A long river that stretches across eternity manifests in the world, a manifestation of the Great Dao, its seven-colored light surging forth, its beginning and end unknown.

This is the Long River of Time, from which even ancient Immortals and Gods could not escape. Lifespan, fortune, and karma were all swept up by it, rushing towards their Predestination end.

Therefore, since ancient times, the first kind of freedom sought by all seekers of the Dao is to break free from the shackles of time and travel against the current of the long river of life.

At this very moment, a majestic figure, carrying a divine arrow and holding a divine bow, is slowly walking against the Long River of Time, his expression calm and his steps leisurely, as if walking on flat ground, as if he were the sole master of this world.

In his eyes, figures hung in the sky like the sun, lingering in the Long River of Time. Some seemed to have just emerged from the water and glimpsed the truth of immortality; others had already stepped onto the riverbank and touched the truth of transcendence.

However, this seemingly small step can make all the difference.

Seemingly having found his target, the man slowly took out a divine arrow from his back, drew his bow, and nocked an arrow.

The golden arrow shone brightly into the sky, its light obscuring the sun and moon for eternity, shooting straight into the depths of the long river!

"The Human Emperor!"

In the illusory shadow cast by the Long River of Time, a Golden-Winged Great Peng Bird let out a mournful cry, flapping its wings and fleeing at the fastest speed in the world, as if it were in the past, trying to escape the arrow of the future.

But the arrow was too fast, faster than time itself could pass. It grazed the roc's wings, and golden blood instantly rained down from the sky. Several roc feathers, burning with golden flames, crashed down to the mortal world like comets.

The man, however, paid no heed. He stood alone on the long river, his entire being like an immortal, radiant sun, its light illuminating the past and the present.

He drew his bow and nocked an arrow again.

The second earth-shattering, blazing divine rainbow pierced through time and space. This arrow directly pierced the right wing of the Golden-Winged Great Peng. Even the fastest speed in the world could not dodge this divine arrow that was faster than time itself.

He raised his hand again, grasping the third arrow, but stopped at that moment, sensing an incredibly weak yet faintly familiar aura. Turning around abruptly, he saw once more the small fish leaping from the lotus pond—

An aura that terrified countless beings across the myriad realms erupted from the man, permeating the illusory yet undeniably Long River of Time and startling countless ancient powerhouses slumbering on both banks.

He abruptly ended the hunt, looked up, and through the eyes of a younger generation, saw once again a future without him.

At this moment, everything Human Emperor's Temporary Palace fell into absolute stillness.

Even the bronze door, which seemed about to be breached by the Savage Wilderness aura and was on the verge of collapse, froze in an instant.

A majestic and awe-inspiring gaze, traversing countless ages from the High Antiquity Long River of Time, descended upon this grand hall.

He was the first to see those tiny moths that burned themselves out to open the way home for their ancestors, and the grand scheme that spanned millennia behind them, but his eyes remained completely unmoved.

Completely indifferent.

Then, his gaze lowered slightly and fell on the young man who had done it again and again, and who knew if he would do it a third time.

It turned out to be two volumes of the "I Ching".

No wonder it could draw his gaze from the "present" to the future.

It seems there will inevitably be a "third" in the future.

He looked up and surveyed the grotto, his brow furrowing slightly. He never imagined that his Autumn Hunting Palace would have "fallen" to this state.

The erosion of the Yellow Springs Nine Netherworlds, even through a portal, can subtly transform this world?

It seems the ban was too weak.

The next moment.

The anxious External Scenery outside the cave suddenly felt an incomparably magnificent and vast will surging out from the cave's light gate!

Wherever that will passed, the previously leaked Savage Wilderness and violent aura was instantly crushed to dust!

Under the oppressive force of this supreme will, the group of powerful cultivators from the External Scenery dared not move an inch. Their legs went weak, and they remained silent, their hearts filled with extreme terror.

Is this the oppressive will of a Great Sage of the Demon Race? No, this is completely different from before—

Above the Dharma Aspect, there truly is another world!

Xiao Ce was visibly shaken, and the hairs on his body stood on end.

This majestic and awe-inspiring imperial aura is so powerful that even the combined dragon aura of all the emperors of the Great Yan Dynasty would not amount to one ten-thousandth of it!

This is definitely not the imperial aura that Great Sage of the remnant clan could exude. Could it be—

Human Emperor?!

Is this the Human Emperor's Tomb?!

In the blink of an eye.

This gaze, carrying the will of the Human Emperor, traveled to the infinite heights, locking onto the "Great Tomb" in the boundless Void.

The vast and boundless aura of imperial power broke through the layers of fog and landed deep within the ruins of the Heavenly Court!

"Who!"

From the depths of the Nine Heavens, a furious voice boomed, carrying immense power that shook heaven and earth. With a single word, the wind and clouds swirled, and the world changed color.

"An ancient human emperor?!"

"You are no longer a part of the future; how did you break through the barrier of time?"

--

The Human Emperor's gaze swept coldly across this unknowable land from High Antiquity times, and over the "giant rats" lurking in the shadows.

The collapse of the Heavenly Court was indeed inextricably linked to this great calamity that swept across the world.

Upon realizing that the secrets of heaven were rapidly unfolding and that someone was attempting to trace the origin of his gaze, the Human Emperor did not linger for long.

He deliberately withdrew his gaze, unwilling to expose the young man from the future to the gaze of the powerful figures at this moment.

That piercing gaze silently retreated back into the cave, finally landing on Yu Tunzhou.

Last time, he was in too much of a hurry and didn't even get a proper look at the young man.

The Spark Instruction has been passed down, but now only the True Intention "seeking survival" remains. However, this person is no longer satisfied with just that and is craving something more that he himself has not yet realized.

He had already seen the burning ambition in the hearts of the young people, which was good; there was no need to follow their old path.

The aura of the Kunpeng?

The light suddenly turned serious.

It was actually the divine will of that old Kunpeng!

I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

The next moment, his gaze fell on Yu Tunzhou's fingers, and his expression gradually softened.

Has Laojun finally agreed to make another move?

High Antiquity.

Even with its right wing pierced by an arrow, the Golden-Winged Great Peng dared not linger for a moment, fleeing with all its might. With a whoosh, it crossed the boundless Void and escaped to the territory of the Demon Race.

But no matter where it fled, not a single one of its old friends or sworn brothers came forward to help it.

Just as it was utterly plunged into despair, a majestic and powerful voice, spanning countless ages, entered its Primordial Spirit.

"Huntian, you should be grateful."

The Human Emperor not to kill is an act of great kindness!

For those trapped in the Human Emperor's Temporary Palace, that timeless gaze that seemed to freeze time and space was nothing more than a fleeting glimpse.

--

But when everyone recovered from the deep-seated fear and looked up into the depths of the hall, they froze on the spot, their faces filled with disbelief and astonishment.

The gate, exuding Savage Wilderness aura and seemingly ready to be smashed open by an ancient powerhouse at any moment—was opened!

But there was no sign of the powerful members of the remnant clan behind the door. Even the Savage Wilderness and violent aura that had almost crushed everyone's souls had vanished without a trace.

Behind the door was only a deathly Void, nothing unusual.

Everyone stared in disbelief at the scene before them, their mouths agape.

What's going on?

Where has that terrifying, Savage Wilderness aura gone?

The Daoist School before us is merely an empty doorway leading to the Void void. It can be opened by Grandmaster at the Peak External Scenery, and even an ordinary External Scenery expert can open a rift leading to the Void void with all their might.

Yu Tunzhou a deep breath, not having time to mourn the few seemingly heroic deaths of the remaining members of the clan. A myriad of thoughts raced through his mind as he analyzed the current situation.

Did the Human Emperor just now see the future through his eyes and change the layout of the palace, replacing the gate leading to the "hunting ground" with an insignificant "empty gate"?

The portal opened by the self-sacrifice and the desperate efforts of overseas survivors has become an empty, useless door.

Standing on the past to change the future—it actually works!

Not far away, An Ruyu's beautiful eyes shone with a strange light, and her fingertips trembled slightly.

That aura just now----

The Human Emperor's gaze has descended?!

She subconsciously looked up and gazed at the figure not far in front of her, the one who had just asked her for the Human Emperor's inheritance. A huge wave of emotions surged in her heart.

Could it be that Young Hero Guo was the one who caused all of this?

Judging by the timeline, the gaze that descended upon us at the beginning of the year seems to have coincided with the time when Young Hero Guo had just embarked on his cultivation journey, and the Young Hero Guo -cultivation Qi Ingestion Method he used was—

Spark Instruction!

Outside the imperial palace.

Kong Ling and his group, who had been Secret Method observing the movements in the main hall, were now completely silent.

The moment they sensed the Great Sage's aura leaking out, their eyes were filled with ecstatic joy and anticipation, but now, that anticipation turned into cold astonishment.

They saw more than everyone else in the hall!

For example, outside the palace, the desolate land within this grotto, originally tainted by the Yellow Springs Nine Netherworlds, instantly returned to normal. The cracked, hardened scorched earth transformed into fertile, soft yellow soil; the decaying wood, withered for countless years, was restored to its original state in an instant; the withered vines on the cliffs sprouted new green shoots; and the wild grasses in the cracks of the rocks blossomed with abundant flowers. In the blink of an eye, the entire mountainside was ablaze with vibrant colors.

The entire forbidden land, which was originally desolate and gloomy, and filled with Nine Netherworlds spirits from the underworld, was transformed in an instant into a blessed land of birdsong, fragrant flowers, teeming with life, and blessed with spiritual beauty!

It seems that this world was meant to be this way!

The only thing that seems to be distorted is their memory.

The burly man beside Kong Ling spoke in a low, hoarse voice, filled with barely concealed resentment. "Pan Yue and his men failed after all, wasting their lives in vain—"

"No!"

Kong Ling turned his head sharply, his eyes not showing any sign of dejection, but rather burning with an almost crazed light, and interrupted him decisively, "Pan Yue and the others' deaths were not in vain!"

Kong Ling said decisively, "Pan Yue and the others' deaths were not in vain. This confirms to us that the Human Emperor did indeed possess legacy methods, and could even plan for the future from High Antiquity times. This is of paramount importance!"

"Now that this is confirmed, all your plans in other areas will need to be overturned and restructured! This will save us from countless losses!"

"Next time, we will never fail like we did this time!"

"Notify Peng Fei, we are withdrawing from the Void!"

The burly man nodded heavily, but then his expression suddenly changed. "Peng Fei said he sensed the aura of his ancestors!"

Inside the main palace, a sense of relief at escaping death slowly spread.

Chu Mu immediately drew his sword and shouted at the Gold-Wielding Guard, "All personnel on alert! Seal the palace gates! Investigate the surrounding area!"

Many scions of the Aristocratic Clan collapsed to the ground, their legs giving way beneath them, gasping for breath, their backs soaked in cold sweat. Just now, they truly believed they were going to perish there, becoming the first meal after the Great Sage of the Demon Race broke free of his seal.

"What exactly is going on?"

After an unknown amount of time, someone in the hall finally spoke, their voice still trembling slightly.

"These guys suddenly rushed out, making such a dramatic and tragic show, and all they did was open a Void portal? Don't they have any External Scenery experts in their household?"

This question echoed the sentiments of everyone.

They truly didn't understand what these overseas descendants were doing, let alone what had just happened.

Chu Mu pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "If I'm not mistaken, the portal here, as Luo Nanwu said, initially likely held a great secret related to the remnants of the race, which is why it attracted these remnants. However, the Human Emperor may have made a plan in the end, replacing the portal and leaving behind a 'fake door' to deceive these guys."

Yu Tunzhou had already fallen into deep thought.

Could this be the true application of the Muscle-Tendon Changing Classic Tendon Changing Classic)?

It's not just about elevating the Dharma, but also about directly confronting the creator of the Dharma and glimpsing the secrets of the past.

If so, I wonder if it's possible to find the teachings of the Three Pure Ones, or the teachings of Buddha Dao Venerable.

Just then, a golden divine light shot out from the Void gate, so fast that no one had time to react.

The divine light slowly rose and fell in the center of the hall, eventually dissipating the golden light that filled the sky and revealing its true form.

It was a blood-stained roc feather!

There was also a fragment of unknown origin.

The roc's feathers were entirely gilded, about three feet long, with each feather distinct and radiating an immortal divine glow, as if they were forged from the purest essence of the sun.

On the feathers, there seemed to be specks of golden roc blood that had not yet dried.

Although the nature of that fragment is unknown, it was certainly no ordinary object that the Human Emperor had left behind.

They floated silently in mid-air, as if this were the "treasure" left behind by the Human Emperor.

The entire hall fell into a deathly silence in an instant.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on the blood-stained roc feather that was silently floating.

Xie Lintian's grip on the longsword tightened suddenly, and he subconsciously took a half-step forward.

Qi Feng slowly drew his sword, his aura already locking onto all those around him who coveted it.

Even Chu Mu and Lin Yueheng were somewhat eager to make a move.

Qi Feng grinned and chuckled, "Gentlemen, heavenly materials and earthly treasures— "

"The virtuous shall occupy this place!"
