I am the first emperor of the ancient times

"What the Emperor says is exactly what I want to say. I will continue to stay on the Bridge of Life and Death and strive to advance further as soon as possible!" the ruthless man said.

All along, she had been pursuing the realm of sacrificial arts. She knew the powerful foundation of the strange race, and only by entering the realm of sacrificial arts could it be put to use.

Unless one reaches this level, they will be unable to exert their influence in battles against the strange race.

This place is an ideal place for cultivation. If he were to return to the myriad realms, he would still need to be constantly on guard against the strange race.

Now, the strange race will never set foot here, so she can continue to accumulate power.

Moreover, under the guidance of the Jade Emperor, she seemed to have gained some insight and had already touched the bottleneck of this realm.

Among them, Ye Fan had already broken through, and she was not to be outdone, wanting to take that step as soon as possible here.

“In that case, fellow Daoist, you only need to wait for my good news!” Ying Hao replied.

The ruthless person's current state is also very delicate, and he is only one step away from the path of sacrifice.

In his view, the ruthless person had already accumulated enough foundation, and it was only a matter of time before he could break through. However, this would ultimately take some time.

The reason why ruthless people are allowed to stay here is because the Bridge of Life and Death is extremely suitable for them.

Most importantly, the Phoenix Rebirth, a supernatural power controlled by the ruthless person, is also extremely consistent with the true meaning of the Bridge of Life and Death.

In his opinion, continuing to train on the Bridge of Life and Death was the best choice. Perhaps when they met again, the ruthless man would have already reached the Sacrifice Realm.

In the following time, he discussed the specific details of the plan with the ruthless man and did not rush to leave.

Three years passed in the blink of an eye, and on this day, Ying Hao finally heard a familiar voice.

"Ding! Rewards have been issued. Please check them yourself!"

Upon hearing the system notification, a smile appeared on Ying Hao's face.

The reason he had to stay for this period of time was because of the system's mission.

Even though he has already achieved the path of sacrifice and no longer needs the essence blood of the Ancestral Witch, the essence blood of the Ancestral Witch is still a good reward, not to mention there are as many as twelve drops.

Moreover, although he couldn't use the essence blood of these ancestral witches, others could.

Moreover, he originally had a plan that happened to require a large amount of Ancestral Witch essence blood.

Immediately after bidding farewell to the ruthless man, he took a step forward and returned to the mortal realm from the Bridge of Life and Death.

Upon returning to the mortal realm, he discovered that Chu Feng and the others were not there. In an instant, he understood the whole story.

During the time he was away from the mortal realm, Chu Feng and the others did a very good job, constantly developing the Heavenly Court.

With Ye Qingxian in charge, the Heavenly Court expanded at an extremely rapid pace, developing into one of the top powers in the mortal realm.

At this rate, it probably won't be long before the Heavenly Court has the opportunity to unify the mortal realm.

However, it was precisely because of the rapid expansion of the Heavenly Court that it attracted the attention of the Strange Clan, leading many of the Heavenly Court's powerful figures to the Yin State.

This continent is the one most severely eroded by the mysterious forces, and it contains the Soul Light Cave.

As for the location connected to the Soul Light Cave, it was an area he was extremely familiar with, and also the Soul River, one of the four strange bridgeheads.

Now, Ye Qingxian, Chu Feng, and the others have all entered the Soul Light Cave and entered the Soul River.

At this moment, his perception has transcended time and space, penetrating deep into the River of Souls.

As soon as he entered, he sensed several auras colliding, indicating that a great battle had broken out in the River of Souls.

Amidst the clashing auras, he sensed a familiar one, an aura that did not belong to Ye Qingxian and the others. The next moment, he took a step forward and arrived within the River of Souls.

However, this time he did not show himself, but instead observed everything from the shadows.

Deep within the River of Souls, several figures appeared and disappeared, exuding a terrifying aura; they were none other than the Celestial Kings of the Strange Clan.

Facing these figures were Ye Qingxian and Chu Feng, among others, but it was a massive figure among them that attracted his attention the most.

This figure was arrogant and extremely ferocious, roaring incessantly at the Soul River Immortal King.

Behind this dark figure, there was another person on his back, whose appearance was obscured.

That familiar aura came from the shadowy figure and the person behind it.

"It really is it!" Ying Hao muttered to himself.

Looking at that arrogant figure, he subconsciously smiled.

The figure was none other than the Black Emperor, and the person behind the Black Emperor whose appearance was obscured was the corpse of Wushi.

However, he saw through the problem with the corpse of Wushi at a glance. Although there was still Wushi's aura on its body, it was obviously just an empty shell.

In other words, Wushi did not perish; this corpse is merely an illusion, and the real Wushi is not here.

Looking at the River of Souls now, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Countless years have passed, and this place has actually been restored to its original state.

The mysterious race has a truly profound foundation. After years of recuperation, not only have many immortal kings appeared here, but even the former bridgehead has been restored to its original state.

At the same time, within the River of Souls, several figures slowly moved forward, constantly approaching the Black Emperor and Ye Qingxian.

"This is the essence of the River of Souls! Why don't you all retreat at once?" one of the strange creatures, resembling a white crow, kept shouting.

However, the Black Emperor and his companions were not afraid at all when facing the five strange immortal kings.

Countless ages have passed, and the Black Emperor has reached the realm of Immortal King, wielding the Broken Bell of No Beginning. Naturally, a few mere Immortal Kings cannot do anything to them.

Realizing they were no match for the strange immortal kings, they fled in panic, while the Black Emperor led Ye Qingxian, Chu Feng, and the others to continue their pursuit deeper into the territory.

The next moment, at the end of the River of Souls, a voice resounded in all directions.

"Where do you get the guts to venture into the River of Souls?"

The voice was ethereal and indifferent, as if devoid of any emotion.

As this voice rang out, all the heavens and myriad realms trembled, and an extremely terrifying scene appeared in the void.

That was a scene of billions of lives lost, corpses floating for miles, blood staining the earth, a scene of world destruction and the collapse of the universe.

Like the wrath of the supreme god, the entire River of Souls trembled incessantly, as if the end of the world was imminent.

At the end of the River of Souls, a pair of blood-red eyes appeared, like two blood moons hanging high in the sky, coldly watching Chu Feng, the Black Emperor, and the others.

Immediately afterwards, a figure emerged from the depths of the River of Souls, revealing its true form.

This figure had a humanoid torso and eight heads, appearing and disappearing in the mist, and its aura far surpassed that of those eerie immortal kings.

In an instant, the heavens trembled, and an inexplicable aura permeated the air, making all realms fall and collapse.

Throughout the heavens and everywhere in the world, all living beings felt this and could not help but tremble.

On the Soul River side, countless creatures knelt down, bowing and worshipping. (End of Chapter)
