I am the first emperor of the ancient times

In the hazy space and time, Ying Hao and the Black Emperor had arrived at a cycle of reincarnation. At the end of the cycle of reincarnation, there was a vague sinkhole!

The sky was shrouded in darkness, filled with a chilling atmosphere. It was a terrifying sight, with an invisible pressure gathering as if it could appear at any moment.

As the person and dog walked forward, the sinkhole was revealed in its entirety. The sinkhole stretched downwards at a very steep angle, its bottom unseen, making people feel uneasy.

Moreover, the entire pit was shrouded in an eerie fog, within which were inexplicable strange rules and ominous power.

The pit walls were covered with terrifying sights: ancient corpses lay by the roadside, and the remains and broken bones of powerful and indescribable creatures were scattered all over the ground.

"Great Emperor Haotian, is this the Heavenly Emperor's Burial Pit? Could Wushi possibly be here?" the Black Emperor asked.

Upon first setting foot here, it had some doubts, but it wasn't certain.

Having fought against many Heavenly Emperors in the Heavenly Court for many years, he had seen the Heavenly Emperor's Burial Pit, but he only observed it from afar and never came into close contact with it.

But now, as it drew ever closer, he was absolutely certain that this was the Heavenly Emperor's Burial Pit, one of the eerie bridgeheads.

It was still somewhat puzzled: if the Great Emperor Wushi really hadn't died, where was he hiding?

Now that the Jade Emperor has brought him here, could it be that Wushi is hiding here?

“That’s right!” Ying Hao replied.

This place is the burial pit of the Heavenly Emperor. Before this, he only knew that Wushi was in this place.

However, the Heavenly Emperor's Burial Pit is also extremely vast, and Wushi was able to hide within it, concealing himself from the strange race, which naturally requires special methods.

He only knew that Wushi was in this place, but he did not know Wushi's exact location.

However, now that he has the Emperor's corpse and the broken bell, he can use the residual aura on them to find the exact location of Wushi.

The next moment, the emperor's corpse on the Black Emperor's body actually moved. It slowly got up and opened its eyes.

In an instant, the Black Emperor froze on the spot, like a clay or wooden sculpture.

What's going on? Why is the corpse of the Emperor of No Beginning rising up? It seems incredibly excited.

Immediately afterwards, a figure appeared, seemingly traversing through time and space.

He had thick black hair and wise eyes that seemed to see through everything.

Upon seeing this figure, Black Emperor became even more excited, and tears streamed down his face.

The reason for this was that he was absolutely certain that the figure that appeared was none other than the Great Emperor Wushi.

"Great Emperor, you are indeed still alive! The Jade Emperor was right!" The Black Emperor wept.

In the past, when he was a child, it was this human powerhouse who took him in and raised him.

Throughout its years of following Wushi, this human emperor never suffered a defeat, sweeping aside countless opponents and even winning the respect of the Dark Forbidden Zone.

However, when faced with the pursuit of the strange race, the emperor managed to send it away with great difficulty. When it returned to the battlefield, only the broken bell and the emperor's corpse were left behind.

It thought that Wushi had completely perished, but unexpectedly, the Jade Emperor brought it to this place and it actually saw Wushi again.

"Don't cry, I'm just faking my death!" Wu Shi whispered, comforting Hei Huang.

But the more he said that, the more heartbroken the Black Emperor became, and tears streamed down his face.

Seeing this, Wu Shi stopped comforting Hei Huang and looked at Ying Hao with a look of surprise.

"Great Emperor, you are indeed alright!" Wu Shi said with a smile.

He and Ye Fan had long suspected that the Jade Emperor had not perished. In that battle back then, they faced three bizarre progenitors, and the Jade Emperor risked his own life to send them away.

If the Jade Emperor were to truly perish at the hands of the three mysterious progenitors, he would absolutely not let them off the hook.

After that, the mysterious progenitors did not search for their whereabouts, which is enough to show that the three progenitors did not deal with the Jade Emperor.

Now, just as they had guessed back then, the Jade Emperor has once again reappeared in the world.

However, while he was not puzzled by the fact that the Jade Emperor was still alive, he was curious about why the Jade Emperor could walk in the world.
Given the importance the Mysterious Clan places on the Jade Emperor, his appearance would inevitably attract the pursuit of the Mysterious Ancestor.

But the Jade Emperor just swaggered into the Heavenly Emperor's Burial Pit without anyone noticing his movements.

"It's been many years since we last met. Congratulations on your advancement together, fellow Daoist!" Ying Hao replied with a smile.

He was naturally very pleased to see familiar faces again in such a short time, and to see that everyone had made progress.

He saw through Wushi's state at a glance; Wushi had made considerable progress since their last separation.

Compared to ruthless individuals, Wu Shi's foundation was slightly weaker, having only just reached the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm.

Of course, this is only in comparison to ruthless individuals; Wushi himself has already made significant progress.

Seeing that these familiar people had made progress naturally made him very happy, which showed that his past efforts had not been in vain.

"I was able to make some progress thanks to the Great Emperor. It's a pity that although I faked my death in the Burial Pit, I ultimately did not reach a higher realm," Wu Shi said with some regret.

He himself was based on the Great Dao of Time, and after faking his death, he lay dormant in the Heavenly Emperor's Burial Pit.

Moreover, he also switched to cultivating the Great Dao of Space, hoping to eventually become "one of their own" among the strange race.

This is also the direction he is striving for: to change his identity and find an opportunity to get closer to the end of the mysterious plateau.

Unfortunately, it was precisely because of this, because of the change of repair schedule, that he wasted a long time.

Otherwise, given his potential, the longer he accumulates experience, the greater his chances of rising to even more powerful realms.

Now, he has yet to break through, but he has met the Jade Emperor once again, and he feels great regret.

Upon hearing Wu Shi's words, Hei Huang suppressed his emotions and listened silently as Wu Shi recounted everything about himself.

As for Ying Hao, he was also deeply moved. Wu Shi had experienced far more hardships than Ye Fan and Ruthless Man along the way.

“Fellow Daoist, do not be anxious. I have made some gains over the years that can lend you a helping hand!” Ying Hao said.

He naturally understood Wu Shi's current state; Wu Shi's luck was indeed worse than Ye Fan's and the others.

Without the Bridge of Life and Death, Wu Shi needed to fake his death to rebuild his cultivation and evade the pursuit of the strange race, so his foundation was indeed somewhat inferior to others.

If this had happened before, even if he had already embarked on the path of sacrifice, he would not have been able to help Wushi.

After all, if Wushi were to advance further, he would also reach the realm of sacrificial rites, and what Wushi lacked was his own foundation.

Fortunately, he happened to possess an item that perfectly met Wushi's current needs.

If this item were given to Wushi and allowed to comprehend it carefully, it would surely help Wushi replenish his own foundation.

Wu Shi's talent is in no way inferior to Ye Fan's and Ruthless Man's. As long as he makes up for his own shortcomings, he can definitely reach a higher realm.

Moreover, with the help of this item, Wushi's progress might even surpass that of the Ruthless One by a few points. (End of Chapter)
