The Heaven-shattering: Starting from the Ancient Times

Chapter 538 Being a Guest
Heavens.

Daluo Heaven.

Nowadays, whenever someone in the human universe becomes a Celestial King, they will basically create a world in the chaos and then merge it with the Great Luo Heaven.

The Great Luo Heaven at this moment is no longer what it used to be.

It is the most vast world among all the heavens.

Outstanding individuals continue to emerge in the human world and the universe.

The heavens of this era are far superior to those of any other era.

Because too many strong individuals have emerged.

Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

In the past, such occurrences were extremely rare, happening only once in countless ages and even across multiple eras.

In fact, this is also related to the fact that the Four Dark Emperors often reaped the benefits of the heavens.

Every harvest marks the destruction of civilizations across the heavens.

Daluo Heaven.

In an ancient and simple palace, people gathered together.

The Primordial Immortal Emperor, seated at the head of the table, looked at the crowd and said: "Everyone, the darkness in the heavens has now been completely quelled, but the darkness beyond the heavens has not been quelled."

"In this situation, darkness could return at any time, so we must not let our guard down."

After saying that, the Primordial Immortal Emperor looked at everyone and said, "In the end, the four outposts are just the tip of the iceberg of the strange race's power. The real darkness is not that simple."

After hearing what the Primordial Immortal Emperor said, everyone nodded solemnly.

Everyone knows that true darkness is not so simple.

"Now that you have reached such a height, the next step is to become an emperor and step into the realm of the end of the road."

When the Primordial Immortal Emperor got to this point, he said in a solemn tone, "The path to becoming an emperor is extremely difficult. At this point, you can only rely on yourself."

“Yes, we understand that too,” Lingbao Tianzun nodded in response.

He was certainly aware of the difficulties Emperor Cheng faced.

"I wonder why the Primordial Immortal Emperor has returned this time?" the Moral Celestial Venerable inquired. "Could it be for the Emperor's sake?"

"That's only one aspect. When I sensed that there were strange emperors in the heavens, I knew that no one could stop them in their current state, so I rushed back."

"Actually, this is also to lure the snake out of its hole. If I don't move, the Immortal Emperor of the strange race won't dare to move at all."

The Primordial Immortal Emperor was somewhat helpless. Since that battle, those strange Immortal Emperors had stopped appearing and had all retreated to the plateau.

"So I wanted to test whether the Strange Immortal Emperor would cause trouble once I left."

At this point, the Primordial Immortal Emperor looked somewhat helpless.

plateau.

That doesn't make any sense at all.

The idea of ​​carving through the plateau is also unrealistic.

Even the Celestial Emperor found it difficult to penetrate the plateau.

Only those who belong to the strange race can enter the plateau.

As for forcibly breaking in, only that pollen empress could do it.

However, this was entirely a bizarre trap deliberately set by the progenitor.

Otherwise, even the Pollen Queen would have difficulty reaching the plateau.

Of course, the Primordial Immortal Emperor was unaware that, in the original timeline, Huang Ye had a seed plan to enter the plateau.

After learning about the special characteristics of the plateau, no one wanted to go there.

"I wonder how the Emperor is doing now?"

Lingbao Tianzun asked the question that everyone most wanted to know.

Upon hearing Lingbao Tianzun's question, everyone looked at the Primordial Immortal Emperor, their eyes filled with curiosity.

We hope to get concrete results.

From his rise to the present, the Human Emperor has influenced countless people and events.

Everyone present had some connection to the Emperor.

Even though the Human Emperor has left the heavens, his legend will live on forever.

"The Human Emperor".

The Primordial Immortal Emperor fell silent.

He was also unaware of the Emperor's condition.

Even the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, who became a sacrificial deity, did not know the specific details of the Human Emperor.

After the first battle, the Human Emperor disappeared without a trace after killing several progenitors.

"Where has the Human Emperor gone?" Ye Fan asked in confusion.

"Yes, the Desolate Emperor once traveled back in time and searched through ancient and modern times, but he could not find any trace of the Human Emperor. It felt as if he did not exist in ancient history and had completely disappeared."

After pondering for a moment, the Primordial Immortal Emperor replied, "According to what the Desolate Heaven Emperor said, the Human Emperor is very likely located in an unknown ancient history."

"That unknown ancient history may be related to that person on the sacrificial path."

Based on the speculation and practice of the Desolate Emperor, he believed that ancient history was not so simple.

Seeing is deceiving.

There may have been history before the creation of the world.

This endless world may have been restarted.

It may be related to that being on the sacrificial path.

With his death, all the ancient history was buried and completely disappeared.

The Emperor has disappeared without a trace.

Everyone was puzzled by this answer.

However, even the Primordial Immortal Emperor did not know the whereabouts of the Human Emperor, let alone them.

Especially after Ye Fan learned that the Bitter Leaf was proposed by the Human Emperor, he became even more eager to find the Human Emperor.

"What is the situation at the front now?" Lingbao Tianzun asked.

"The situation is not optimistic, but a certain special balance has been achieved," said the Primordial Immortal Emperor.

In terms of combat strength, they are far inferior to the strange races.

Their side only had the Desolate Heavenly Emperor and the Greatly Crippled Flower Powder Empress.

It's just barely maintaining the status quo; a fragile balance exists.

If another bizarre progenitor were to emerge, this balance could be disrupted at any time.

Upon hearing what the Primordial Immortal Emperor said, everyone was shocked. It turned out that the Immortal Emperor was not the end.

Above the Immortal Emperor, there is another realm: the Sacrifice Dao.

According to the Primordial Immortal Emperor, once the path is completed and one is sublimated, that is the realm of sacrificial rituals.

"Pollen Queen?"

Everyone was curious.

We can find out who this person is from the words of the Primordial Immortal Emperor.

The Pollen Empress also appears to be a powerful figure who has reached the pinnacle of her spiritual path.

Indeed, besides the heavens, there were other magnificent worlds.

Such powerful beings can be born in the same way.

“Yes, the Pollen Empress was born in the Celestial Realm,” said the Primordial Immortal Emperor. “As for the Celestial Realm, it was an extremely glorious world, but it has now declined.”

"Actually, it can't be called a decline. It's just that the current Heaven only has two Immortal Emperors in charge and one powerful sacrificial expert who is recovering."

"The Celestial Emperor of Heaven has now formed an alliance with us."

The Primordial Immortal Emperor briefly explained the situation in the heavens.

After listening, everyone understood why Heaven had inexplicably sent a helping hand this time.

It turns out that the two sides have formed an alliance to fight against the darkness together.

"I see." Everyone suddenly realized.

I understand the situation of Heaven.

"Alright, I'm also getting ready to leave," said the Primordial Immortal Emperor.

Now he wants to see if the rats make any move.

He made a special trip back to the heavens to lure out the rats.

It was all to prevent those rats from hiding on the plateau.

"I am waiting for your arrival and looking forward to your growth."

The Primordial Immortal Emperor smiled and addressed the crowd.

As he finished speaking, the Primordial Immortal Emperor glanced at the heavens.

Even in the Great Luo Heaven, the Primordial Immortal Emperor still had a panoramic view of all the heavens.

"I'm a little reluctant to leave, but unfortunately the darkness has not yet subsided, and nothing is settled." After saying this, the Primordial Immortal Emperor did not linger but chose to depart.

As everyone watched, the figure of the Primordial Immortal Emperor became increasingly indistinct until it disappeared completely.

At the very end of an extremely distant era.

On a plateau, Chen Zhao and his companion arrived at this place.

This plateau is vast and boundless.

It is full of vitality, showing the vibrant growth of all things.

This plateau is far removed from all worlds and the boundless primordial universe; it is a pure land created by humankind.

Chen Zhao was surprised when he arrived at this plateau.

This place is clearly the eerie plateau that will later become known.

He knew that this eerie plateau would one day become a true source of calamity.

However, Chen Dong has not yet reached the level of the Sacrifice Path; he is still in the realm of the Immortal Emperor and has not even achieved the ultimate ascension.

Chen Zhao was very curious about this Chen Dong.

After all, this person is the source of all the ominous and strange occurrences.

Even after his death, he caused the greatest darkness and turmoil in the world.

On this plateau, there is a small courtyard

In this small courtyard, beside a lake, a strange lotus flower is growing, emitting a delicate fragrance.

This lotus flower is not actually very strong; it is just an ordinary lotus flower. However, it is slowly evolving over time.

Clearly, this is a lotus flower that has been enlightened by the Celestial Emperor, so it has undergone a transformation that is unimaginable to ordinary people.

"Please," Chen Dong said with a smile.

Then the two of them stepped into the small courtyard.

This little courtyard is so ordinary, yet so extraordinary.

The reason it feels ordinary is that this little courtyard is just like an ordinary farmhouse.

The reason it is so extraordinary is that every item in this courtyard was created by the Celestial Emperor.

In the future, it will become a creation above the sacrificial path.

Even the plateau beneath our feet will transform from a Celestial Emperor's Daoist abode into a Daoist ritual site.

Later, after being stained with ashes, it became an eerie plateau with a quality surpassing that of a sacrificial altar.

In that courtyard, there was a stone table with a zither on it, and it was a stone zither.

This stone zither seems to have been created entirely by nature; it is truly extraordinary.

In a corner of this courtyard, there is a flower.

After the flower withers, it turns into seeds and then grows again, as if undergoing some kind of special cycle.

Who could have imagined that this flower would one day give rise to a priest?

This made Chen Zhao feel somewhat emotional.

Almost all the rituals are related to this person.

In fact, from a certain perspective, if one had no connection with it, one would not have been able to embark on this path at all.

After all, it's the realm that comes after the path has been traversed and elevated.

Or rather, the path of sacrifice.

This is the path that Chen Dong walked alone.

It's quite normal that this road has special characteristics.

For ordinary people who have no connection with Chen Dong, embarking on this path would be extremely difficult.

This is also why all the sacrificial beings in the trilogy are related to Chen Dong.

Next to the stone table was a stove, obviously used for making tea.

No one could have imagined that this furnace would later be used to burn corpses.

"Please sit down," Chen Dong said.

He then started boiling water using the stove next to him.

After speaking, Chen Dong took out tea leaves and began to brew tea.

Judging from Chen Zhao's tea-brewing technique, he was very skilled.

Clearly, Chen Dong was also a Heavenly Emperor who loved drinking tea.

Indeed, the tradition of drinking tea has its origins.

"please."

Facing the cup of tea on the table, Chen Zhao didn't stand on ceremony, picked it up, and took a small sip.

"Good tea."

For some reason, he felt that this tea was somewhat similar to the tea of ​​enlightenment.

The taste is very similar, but there are some differences; this tea is of a very high grade.

But after that taste, Chen Zhao only felt extremely bitter.

It was as if he had gone through a hundred tragic cycles of reincarnation.

All of his relatives and friends died tragically.

In the end, he was all alone in the world; all his enemies were dead.

This cycle of reincarnation was so unusual that it stirred a bitter feeling in Chen Zhao's heart.

so bitter.

It felt as if I was experiencing Chen Dong's life.

"Fellow Daoist, what kind of tea is this?" Chen Zhao asked.

“I bred this myself,” Chen Dong said with a smile.

"After I had wiped out all the Immortal Emperors in the world and destroyed all the hostile forces, I discovered that there were still people like you in the world."

Chen Dong's smile was somewhat cold as he continued, "Fellow Daoist, you must be a being who does not belong to this era."

"What purpose do you have in rising to this era?"

"Breaking through the realm," Chen Zhao said succinctly.

This is his main purpose: to break free from constraints and achieve ultimate transcendence.

“I see, just as I expected,” Chen Dong said.

"We have both reached the end of the Great Dao. But we all know that this is not the true end. Above this realm, there are other realms."

"Do you believe in reincarnation, fellow Daoist?" Chen Dong asked.

"Isn't the path you've taken the path of reincarnation?" Chen Zhao said after a moment of silence.

This person is walking the path of reincarnation, yet still questions the reality of reincarnation.

Perhaps he questioned the existence of reincarnation, and therefore chose to take the path of sacrifice when he reached the end of his path and was about to be sublimated.

“They are all dead. I want to resurrect them, but I don’t know whether to resurrect them or beings that possess their memories.”

At this moment, Chen Dong seemed a bit off, as if he were talking to himself.

"This"

Chen Zhao felt somewhat helpless. Before becoming a priest, Chen Dong had gone half-mad.

Are the initial symptoms already appearing?
"Those relatives and old friends are like a fragment in the long river of time to me, having lost the original meaning that ordinary people can feel."

Chen Dong returned to normal at this point, speaking in a desolate tone.

"I don't know what's wrong with me. Maybe it's because I'm on a different level of life and I can no longer find that feeling of being moved."

"I just want to go back to those days and live quietly with my relatives and friends over there."

At this point, Chen Dong's mental state became unstable again.

But it returned to normal the next moment.

"Perhaps I'm not strong enough," Chen Dong muttered to himself.

"If I can break through the existing constraints and reach another realm, perhaps I can truly find everything I once had."

From Chen Dong's words, Chen Zhao sensed a strong obsession!

This powerful obsession drove Chen Dong to continue on the path of cultivation, ultimately leading him to the path of sacrificial rituals.

Chen Dong's mental state is now somewhat unstable; he may have truly reached the point of being half-mad.

As for whether he could reach the pinnacle of his spiritual path, Chen Zhao knew that it was certain.

"Why don't we explore together how to achieve transcendence at the end of the road?" Chen Dong invited.

This is the only remaining being at the end of the road in the infinite universe besides him.

Moreover, this person's identity and background are extremely mysterious.

These are people who don't belong to this era.

Perhaps discussing philosophy with him could inspire him to explore his own path, truly reach the pinnacle of his journey, and attain a higher realm.
