The Eternal God Emperor Begins from the First Realm Breakthrough

Chapter 19 The Queen Arrives
Tongming River is a major river in the Eastern Region. It flows along the edge of Tianmo Ridge and eventually flows into the East China Sea.

There are countless wild aquatic beasts in the river, including some at level five and even level six.

Two figures stood by the river, releasing only a little bit of holy power, which made the entire Tongming River completely silent, and all the wild beasts instinctively remained quiet.

Tianmo Ridge is right in front of them, only separated by a river. With the cultivation level of the figure in the brocade yellow emperor robe, he can cross it in one step.

However, it was this step that made the powerful and virtuous female saint empress, who had conquered the five regions and killed her way through the wilderness, hesitate for a long time and was unable to take the first step.

Even the old man in Confucian robe beside her was surprised to see her hesitant for the first time.

"The Queen specifically summoned me to the border of the Eastern Territory. Why did she stop here when she was almost there?"

Chi Yao came back to her senses from her memories, temporarily clearing her mind of the image of the sixteen-year-old boy in white, and the domineering aura of the emperor that dominated the world returned to her.

"Emperor Wen, do you still remember that three hundred years ago, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky of the Eastern Territory. It was suspected that a great sage from the ancient race had broken through to the realm of the wilderness, which caused the wild beast tribes outside the five regions to invade the human territory?"

The old man in Confucian robes stroked his long beard, wondering why Empress Chi Yao suddenly brought up this matter.

Compared to Empress Chi Yao, who rose to power only a few hundred years ago, his title of "Emperor Wen" is much older, and his every word and action reveals his shrewdness and foresight.

"Of course I remember. That time, the Queen personally took action, storming into the wilderness and slaying eight Beast Kings. Since then, the Savage Beast Tribe has never dared to invade the Five Realms of Humanity again. Over the years, the Five Realms have expanded their territories, also drawing on the remaining power of the Queen's battle three hundred years ago. Does the Queen mean that we are here for the ancient relic that caused the strange phenomenon back then?"

People only know that Empress Chi Yao killed eight Beast Kings in a row eight hundred years ago, but Emperor Wen knew more. He knew that in that battle, although Empress Chi Yao traveled all over the wilderness of the five regions, she was unable to find the ancient relic who had broken through the realm. The other party disappeared as if it had evaporated from the earth. Even the rulers of the four wildernesses did not know his true identity, let alone his whereabouts.

"Yes and no."

Chi Yao said lightly, looking towards Tianmo Ridge with a deep gaze.

On the Tongming River, the sky is blue and quiet, and the wind is calm.

There was only a light white rain between heaven and earth, falling on the vast river surface.

"For the past three hundred years, that ancient relic that achieved breakthrough has vanished without a trace and has never been seen again. This is completely unlike the behavior of a Great Sage-level Beast King. I can only think of two possibilities for how they could have endured for three hundred years."

"Firstly, the strength of that ancient relic has not yet reached its peak level, and it is dormant only to return to the world in its peak form in the future.

The ancient relic species contain the ancient chaotic power within their bodies. If the chaotic power within the ancient relic species that breaks through the realm is strong enough, hundreds of years will be enough for it to climb to the peak level of the Great Sage, or even approach the level of a god.

“Almost godlike?”

Emperor Wen couldn't help but be shocked. He was the number one Confucianist and Taoist in Kunlun Realm. He had been cultivating his spiritual power for thousands of years and his spiritual power had reached the sixty-ninth level. He could be said to be one of the most powerful beings among the great saints, but he didn't dare to say that he was close to being a god.

Looking around the world, perhaps only the person in front of us has some qualifications to be compared with God.

If such an invincible beast king really appeared among the wild beast tribe, the current good situation of the Kunlun Realm would be gone.

Eight hundred years have passed. Many powerful people, such as Yuanfa Daozu, the Nine Emperors and the Three Queens, have either died of old age or left Kunlun and disappeared. In the vast Kunlun world, the only one who can be relied on now is a woman, an old man.

"Ancient species with bloodlines that level are extremely rare. The possibility is only 10% to 20%. I am more convinced of the second possibility."

"Perhaps that ancient relic didn't become an invincible and savage beast king, but was instead subdued by a being more powerful than himself. For three hundred years, it has been cultivating alongside that powerful being. That would explain everything," Chi Yao replied. This speculation didn't ease Emperor Wen's anxiety; instead, it only intensified his worry.

An ancient relic in the Great Saint realm is already enough of a headache, and if a mysterious strong man who can subdue it appears, the situation may really get out of control.

"Although Kunlun is vast, it has been under the surveillance of the chessboard of heaven and earth for many years. What kind of existence could hide from everyone, and from the chessboard of heaven and earth? Could it be that the gods of the Middle Ages are still alive and have been resurrected in this day and age?"

Chi Yao shook her head and continued, "Eight hundred years ago, during the chaos of Shengming, the Crown Prince died, the Emperor disappeared, and all the ministers of Shengming were either dead or surrendered. The whereabouts of those who escaped were generally known to the court, but there was only one person. After that day, no trace of him was left in the world. I secretly sent people to investigate and searched the entire Kunlun Realm, but I couldn't find his whereabouts."

"The more we investigate, the more suspicious things become about him. It's as if he appeared out of nowhere, leaving only a brief presence in history for a dozen years before quietly disappearing. No one knows where he came from, and no one knows where he went."

At Empress Chi Yao's current level of cultivation, there are very few current events in the Kunlun Realm that can confuse her. This mystery that has troubled her for eight hundred years is at the forefront of them.

"I think Emperor Wen knows that man. He was the Prince's Grand Tutor of the Shengming Central Empire, Chen Wudao."

"Chen Wudao?"

Emperor Wen frowned and searched his mind carefully before he remembered the name that he should not have forgotten. He suddenly felt a sense of fear in his heart.

A saint with spiritual power has the ability to remember everything he sees, let alone him?
How could he almost forget such a person who holds a high position in the Shengming Central Empire?

There is only one explanation, that is, there is a mysterious power in the world that is erasing all traces of that person, and the objects of erasure also include other people's memories of him.

"Now that the Queen has mentioned this, I'm even more surprised by how unusual that person is. I haven't had much contact with him, only encountering him a few times when I was lending him the sacred book of the Founding Father of Confucianism."

"Now it seems that his spiritual power is far superior to mine. He may have reached the legendary divine realm."

Chi Yao's face was solemn, and she said in a deep voice, "The divine power left by the Xumi Saint Monk a hundred thousand years ago has been exhausted. Even with the Heaven and Earth Altar as a supplement, it can only buy the Kunlun Realm another ten years. At this critical juncture, there is no room for error."

"Even if he really is a god, we must go and meet him. If he's a friend, that's all that matters. But if he's an enemy... there's no choice but to fight!"

There is only one battle!
Emperor Wen felt the resolute will of Empress Chi Yao. She was only a great sage, yet she dared to call herself a god of war. The so-called nine emperors and three queens eight hundred years ago were far from her. Perhaps only the Thousand Bones Empress who killed gods before becoming a god a hundred thousand years ago could be compared with her.

"Even if we have to fight, where can we find him? Since the Queen summoned me, she must have already made up her mind."

"It's natural."

Chi Yao waved her sleeves lightly, and a scholar in white appeared in front of the two of them. She was not a space cultivator and could not capture objects out of thin air. The reason she was able to carry a living person with her was because of the time and space treasure in her hand.

As soon as the scholar in white appeared, he saluted the two of them.

"Luo Xu pays homage to the Empress and Emperor Wen."

Luo Xu is the dean of the Eastern Domain Holy Academy in the Wu City Academy, the leader of the emerging Luosheng clan in the Eastern Domain, and the most outstanding person in the Kunlun Realm two hundred years ago, leading an era.

He has an inseparable connection with Tianmo Ridge, or the Luo River outside Tianmo Ridge. It can be said that it is the Luo River and the person by the Luo River that made him what he is today.
