I am the first emperor of the ancient times

Chapter 239 Farewell to the Desolate Emperor!
"Fellow Daoist is truly remarkable, having broken through to become an Immortal Emperor in such a short time!" Emperor Huangtian exclaimed.

He was born in the Immortal Realm. Although he had been fighting against the strange progenitors, he had always been aware of the changes in the Immortal Realm.

He also paid close attention to the major battle that took place not long ago.

Ying Hao was unexpectedly powerful. Not only had he broken through to the Immortal Emperor realm in a short period of time, but he had also killed two Immortal Emperors in succession.

Even when facing the bizarre progenitors, it unexpectedly blocked the methods of the two bizarre progenitors.

Ying Hao's talent and the weapons he used to deal with the strange progenitor amazed him.

If it weren't for his special circumstances, he would have loved to communicate with Ying Hao in person.

However, given his current situation, he has no choice but to communicate with Ying Hao in this way, transcending time and space.

He was already trapped by the strange progenitor, and even the sword strike he just unleashed was barely a forced attack.

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. You bear everything alone and fight against terrifying beings. You are far more extraordinary than I am!" Ying Hao said.

With the help of the Chaos Bell, a supreme innate treasure, he could indeed contend with powerful sacrificial cultivators.

Compared to everything the Desolate Emperor did, it was nothing but a drop in the ocean.

According to his speculation, the current Desolate Emperor is already fighting against the strange progenitor, and there is more than one of them.

It was precisely because of the existence of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor that the strange race attracted a great deal of attention.

Without the invincible Desolate Emperor, these later generations would have had no chance to grow, and might have even ceased to exist long ago.

"No need to be polite. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know the true strength of the Strange Clan!"

"Fellow Daoist, your talent is extraordinary. If you can advance further, we will also have hope of victory," said the Desolate Emperor.

For so many years, he has been fighting against the Oddity Progenitors, but he has faced the three Oddity Progenitors alone.

Even when facing such an opponent, he always believed that this was not the limit for the strange race.

On that ancestral plateau, the strange race must have other ancestral-level powerhouses.

Today, it was Ying Hao's intervention that attracted the other three strange progenitors.

This also confirmed his guess that there were indeed more than three, but as many as six, the progenitors of the strange.

Six bizarre progenitors—what a terrifying force that is, almost enough to drive anyone to despair.

However, Ying Hao's appearance has given him hope.

Ying Hao has already broken through to the Immortal Emperor level in a short period of time, which is enough to prove his talent. With such talent, breaking through to the Sacrifice Dao level is probably only a matter of time.

If Ying Hao can break through, and with that incredible giant bell, they will have a chance to win.

He was confident that as long as he could buy time, he could kill several of the progenitors and join forces with Ying Hao to wipe out the strange clan.

“Fellow Daoist is mistaken, the secrets of the Strange Clan are far more than this!” Ying Hao said.

He was well aware of the Desolate Emperor's plan; according to the Desolate Emperor's idea, it was simply to wait for another priest to appear.

With the two priests working together, as long as they can restrain some of the ancestors for the Desolate Emperor, the Desolate Emperor will be able to kill the rest of the ancestors.

This plan is indeed feasible, but it is all based on the premise that the Mysterious Clan only has six Mysterious Ancestors.

But he knew that there were more than six strange progenitors!

"Is what you're referring to, fellow Daoist, about the ability of the Strange Ancestor to be resurrected?" asked the Desolate Heaven Emperor.

During his battle with the progenitor of the supernatural, he had acquired the ability to kill the progenitor, which was the source of his confidence in pacifying the supernatural.

But in the process, he also discovered something terrible.

Even if the monstrous progenitor is killed by him, he can still be resurrected in that plateau.

"The Strange Race doesn't just have six progenitors, but a full ten!" Ying Hao explained. In fact, no one would have imagined that the Strange Race had ten progenitors.

It was precisely this flawed judgment that led to the devastating failure.

Those were a full ten progenitors, ten powerful sacrificial cultivators.

Throughout history, how many Immortal Emperors have been born in all the heavens and myriad realms? The number of Immortal Emperors hasn't even reached ten, let alone those who practice the Dao.

At this moment, the Desolate Emperor fell silent, shocked by everything Ying Hao had explained.

He thought that six strange progenitors were the limit for the strange race, but he did not expect that there were as many as ten strange progenitors.

With such a disparity in strength, let alone having one more Priest, even having one more Priest would probably not be enough to resolve the situation.

"Actually, there's no need to worry about the ten strange ancestors. Given enough time, there are people in the Immortal Realm who can grow to the level of the Sacrifice Dao!"
"The reason why the strange race was able to revive is because of that plateau, which is equivalent to the sacrificial path," Ying Hao continued.

The people he mentioned in the Immortal Realm were Ye Fan, the Ruthless Great Emperor, and the Beginningless Great Emperor, among others.

Ten strange progenitors are nothing; once these people also grow up, they will be able to deal with the strange progenitors.

However, the mysterious progenitor is not important; the plateau behind him is the most important thing, the place where an invincible powerhouse above the path of sacrifice buried himself.

After that supreme expert died, the plateau collapsed, and his ashes polluted the plateau.

Then, ten beings came to that plateau, were stained with ashes, and became the strange progenitors.

The reason why the Occult Progenitor was able to be resurrected is because consciousness had already been born on that plateau, and that is the source of the Occult.

That plateau already possessed the great power of the sacrificial path.

Upon hearing Ying Hao's explanation, the Desolate Emperor was completely numb.

The fact that the Strange Clan had ten progenitors was beyond his expectations.

Today he finally learned the truth about the strange race; it was all because of that plateau, because of that supreme powerhouse.

The plateau is the origin of the strange race, where a will has been born and the power of the sacrificial path has been attained.

He understood that if he wanted to completely eliminate the strange phenomena, the power of the sacrificial ritual alone was no longer sufficient.

Of course, what surprised him even more was Ying Hao's understanding of the strange race.

He didn't know why Ying Hao knew all this; in his opinion, Ying Hao probably had secrets he couldn't even imagine.

However, he did not delve into the matter. Everyone has secrets, and besides, this matter was a good thing for all the worlds.

"What are you going to do next?"

After a moment of contemplation, the Desolate Emperor finally calmed the turmoil in his heart.

The true strength of the Mysterious Clan is indeed too great, but for all the worlds, knowing this in advance is always better than being unprepared.

What he's worried about now is how Ying Hao will deal with this next.

With his help, Ying Hao and the others have returned to the Immortal Realm, but the Strange Ancestor will definitely not let this go.

If the monstrous progenitor were to attack again, he would surely be fully prepared, and I doubt he would have another chance to strike.

When that time comes, Ying Hao will have to face the strange progenitor alone.

“Since we know he’s coming, why don’t we turn the tables on him? However, we’ll need your help with this!” Ying Hao said with a smile.

He knew that the Occult Ancestor would not give up easily and would definitely want to know the secrets about him.

He has now established contact with the Desolate Emperor and has already made plans for his next actions.

"What do fellow Taoists mean?"
