The Eternal God Emperor Begins from the First Realm Breakthrough

Chapter 257: Measuring the Sea, Seventy-Two-Story Tower
The North Sea of ​​Kunlun Realm is vast and mysterious, and the adjacent Northern Territory is said to have been extremely prosperous in ancient times.

Zhang Ruochen was ultimately unable to withstand the attacks of the four women and returned to the Kunlun Realm.

Chi Yao and the Golden White Tiger stood on Zhang Ruochen's left and right. The outline of a huge island gradually emerged on the vast sea in front of them.

The God-killing Island is the ancestral home of the God-killing clan and the location of the Taoist temple of the Supreme Lord of the God-killing Island.

Three figures landed outside the God-Falling Island. The light curtain of the formation outside the island opened an entrance, and the Thousand Bones Queen walked out of it. She had the Infinite Sword hanging on her waist and a smile on her face.

"Zhang Ruochen, Grandfather has been waiting for you for a long time. Please follow me."

Zhang Ruochen cupped his fists towards her and said with a smile, "It's a long journey back from Jiannan Realm. To avoid unnecessary trouble along the way, Yaoyao and I deliberately concealed our presence. That's why we're a little late in getting back. We're sorry to have kept Grand Master and the Empress waiting for so long."

The Thousand Bone Empress felt the unfathomable aura of the Dao from Zhang Ruochen and knew that she had been surpassed by him and left far behind. She couldn't help but feel emotional. It was no wonder that her grandfather valued him so much. The first-grade divine Dao was indeed extraordinary.

"You'd better save these words and say them to your grandfather in person. He has been looking very serious lately. I think he called you back this time for something very important. You should be mentally prepared." Empress Qiangu reminded.

Zhang Ruochen had anticipated this before coming here, and he had prepared himself mentally for this. He held the philosophy of "the sea embraces all rivers", and his Dao heart was naturally extremely strong. It was no exaggeration to say that he remained calm even when a mountain collapsed before his eyes.

"Thank you, Empress. Please lead the way."

Silence filled the air as the Thousand Bone Queen brought Zhang Ruochen and his party to the ancestral land of the Shenyun clan.

There is only time and space ahead. All matter disappears and turns into a colorful sea of ​​light. Everything in the sea of ​​light is between reality and nothingness.

The Lord of the God-Falling Island stood below the sea of ​​light, with white hair and beard, looking vigorous and energetic, with the demeanor of a great master.

"Ruochen, you're here." He smiled and looked at Zhang Ruochen and his group.

Zhang Ruochen bowed respectfully to the Lord of the God-Falling Island. "Greetings, Grand Master. It's Ruochen's fault that I haven't returned to Kunlun Realm to visit you in such a long time."

The Lord of the God-Falling Island smiled and waved his hand, "Young man, it never hurts to venture out a little. Besides, the Immortal Forbidden Zone is filled with powerful people and famous teachers. If you cultivate there, your progress will be much faster than if you stayed in the Kunlun Realm."

"If this wasn't a matter involving the eternal secrets of the Kunlun Realm, I wouldn't have asked Chi Yao and the others to bring you back."

Zhang Ruochen's expression was somewhat solemn. He looked at the Lord of the Fallen God Island and asked, "What is the eternal secret of the Kunlun Realm?"

The Lord of the God-Falling Island showed a look of reminiscence on his face. He sighed softly and began to tell the story.

"As you know, when the Kunlun Realm was facing a critical moment, the Xumi Saint Monk transcended the vast river of time and chose you and Chi Yao. He gave you the virtual and real scrolls of the Thirty-Three Heavens cultivation method left by the two Great Venerables, hoping that you would surpass the Great Venerables in the future and support the future of the Kunlun Realm."

"Whether 'Thirty-Three Heavens' will succeed, no one knows the answer. To increase the probability of success, the holy monk activated the foundation accumulated over eons in the Kunlun Realm, hoping to cultivate a genius who can achieve the first-grade holy will and completely reverse the decline of the Kunlun Realm."

"Under the planning of the holy monk, with the help of the sages of the Kunlun Realm throughout the ages, and with your own persistence, we have now achieved the world's best, the Wuji Divine Way."

"The facts prove that the decision made by the Holy Monk and us back then was not wrong. You are the one who can change the future of Kunlun Realm and even the entire universe."

Zhang Ruochen deeply admired and respected the Holy Monk Xumi, the Lord of the God-Falling Island, the Great Venerable Acala, and even the sages in the history of the Kunlun Realm.

The holy monk used his body as a boat to send him to Taichu. The sages of Kunlun Realm from all generations cleared away obstacles for him in the long river of time and escorted him all the way.

Without their help, Zhang Ruochen would never have achieved what he has today.

"Ruochen will never forget the Kunlun Realm's cultivation, nor will he forget his origins in the Kunlun Realm. Grand Master and the Saint Monk have placed great hopes on me. Unfortunately, my cultivation is still too weak, far from having the ability to change the universe. The Kunlun Realm also needs the support of Grand Master, the Dragon Lord, and the Empress. Ruochen is unworthy of Grand Master's praise."

"Brother Chen, how long have you been practicing? Among your peers, no one has a higher level of cultivation than you. With time, you will definitely be able to grow to the height that the Supreme and the Holy Monk expect." Chi Yao comforted him.

"But I'm worried that I don't have much time left to cultivate peacefully." Zhang Ruochen's eyes showed worry. He said, "During my time cultivating in the Changsheng Dao Sect, I've heard the founder discuss the Dao and talk about many catastrophes. The Dao Master himself said that the universe is only one or two eons away from entering the Age of Great Destruction."

"Only one or two epochs are left." It was the first time Chi Yao heard this news, and her heart was shocked.

Empress Qiangu was also shocked when she heard this.

One or two kalpas is not too long for powerful people of their level of cultivation.

This is just the lifespan of a superior god. Is it possible that a massive catastrophe is going to come so soon?

The Lord of the God-Falling Island maintained a calm expression and said calmly, "Since it comes from the mouth of the Immortal Daoist Master, I believe that even if there are deviations, they will not be too big. We really don't have much time left."

"Ruochen, today I will no longer hide anything from you. Whether it's the Great Venerable or the sages of the Kunlun Realm, they left behind methods to help you cultivate into a First-Rank Saint Will. Their purpose, besides the prosperity of the Kunlun Realm, is more importantly to help you resist the great calamities and find a way to break them."

“If the First-Rank Divine Dao achieves the ancestor, there will inevitably be unpredictable changes, and perhaps a way to resolve a large number of disasters will be found.”

Zhang Ruochen smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "It's not easy to break through to the ancestral realm. People like Haotian and Tianmu have practiced for a long time, but they are still lingering in the semi-ancestral realm."

"People like Haotian, Tianmu, and Fengdu Emperor are not ordinary people. They have the potential to become ancestors at any time. In this era, the rules of heaven and earth have changed, and the difficulty of breaking through the realm has become easier. The possibility of them breaking through the realm of ancestors in the future is very high. Of course, the time left for them is not much."

"Ruochen, you have cultivated to the first rank of divine way. Your talent is naturally unrivaled throughout history. No one can surpass you. If there is only one person in the world who has the hope of achieving the ancestral realm in a short period of time, who else can it be but you?"

The Lord of the God-Falling Island pointed to the colorful sea of ​​light behind him and said, "This sea is called the Sea of ​​Quantity. It shares the same origin as the Sea of ​​Separation and Hatred. It was left behind by the ancestors of the God-Falling Clan, the ancestor of time and space. It contains endless creation and vast energy."

"If you refine the sea of ​​​​volume, you will be able to reach the realm of the ancestor in a short time."

"The ocean of energy left by the ancestor of time and space?" Zhang Ruochen looked at the colorful ocean in front of him. The vast power in it made him feel awe, as if he was facing a true ancestor.

"This is a treasure left to the Shenyun Clan by the Ancestor of Time and Space. How could I possibly lay my hands on it? Grand Master can refine it himself, or have the Empress refine it. If you two reach the Ancestral Realm, you can also find a future for the Kunlun Realm."

The Lord of the God-killing Island smiled and shook his head. "Even if Qingchan and I break through to the Ancestral Realm, what good will it do? We still can't change the fact that a large number of calamities are coming. There is more than one Ancestral Realm in the Longevity Forbidden Zone. Have they found a way to deal with the large number of calamities?"

"The great terror of the universe is the great calamity. Before the chaotic ancient times, although the battles in each era were exciting, they were only limited to the strongest people in their respective eras. Since the chaotic ancient times, those powerful ancestors have felt the threat of the impending great calamity, and this is why they panicked.

Even immortals like Mingzu have begun to step out from behind the scenes. In the chaotic ancient times, they cultivated great demon gods, ushered in a bloody era, cursed your Zhang family's Lingyanzi and Kongyinxue with the death curse, killed the twenty-four gods, and cursed the saints. It seems crazy, but in fact, it is all preparation for the arrival of a large number of disasters.

"In this era, everything has been brought to the fore. The Forbidden Zone of Immortality, the Forbidden Land of Desolate Heaven, the Eternal Heaven, and one immortal after another have stepped onto the stage. If it were so easy to find a way to break through the massive calamity, do you think they would choose to step into the public eye?"

Zhang Ruochen pondered this carefully and came up with the answer, "With the cultivation strength of immortals, even if they want to fight each other, they only need to support their own spokespersons. The temporary victory or defeat will not have much impact on them. Just like the great demon god and the celestial demon in the chaotic ancient times."

The Lord of the Fallen God Island nodded and sighed, "Yes, if there were no life-or-death threats, there would be no need for immortals to fight each other to the death. Perhaps they could even become good friends."

Zhang Ruochen quickly regained his composure and looked at the God-Falling Island Master quietly. After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, "Grand Master knows so many secrets. I'm afraid his identity is not as simple as I see it."

The Lord of the God-Falling Island met his eyes, and the air around them instantly became dead silent.

After a long moment, the Lord of the Fallen God Island finally let out a laugh, breaking the delicate atmosphere. "Refine the Ocean of Quantity and ascend to the Ancestral Realm. In the future, the legacy of the Kunlun Realm's predecessors will fall upon you. I no longer need to hide these secrets."

"The Sea of ​​​​Limited Volume was actually given to me by the Ancestor of Time and Space across the long river of time. You are the controller of time and space, the third generation of the time and space heir. Naturally, you know that the first generation of time and space controller is the Ancestor of Time and Space. The Sea of ​​​​Limited Volume was originally a gift from the Ancestor of Time and Space to the descendants of time and space along the long river of time. It should have been handed over to the hands of the Xumi Saint Monk, but the Saint Monk left it to you. The Saint Monk believes that leaving the Sea of ​​​​Limited Volume to you will have a greater role."

"The Great Acalanatha was also involved. Many of the secrets I know were told to me by the Great Acalanatha."

Zhang Ruochen was deeply shaken, unable to recover for a long time. "Great Master, Holy Monk, it turned out to be them..."

……

Zhang Ruochen stayed in the Ocean of Quantity to cultivate, using the vast quantitative force within it to impact Xiao Yan and even Dayan.

Chi Yao and the Golden White Tiger also stayed on the God-Falling Island to practice.

The Lord of the God-Falling Island walked out of the place of inheritance accompanied by the Thousand Bones Empress, looked up at the vast starry sky, and seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.

"Qingchan, Grandfather has had too many concerns and experiences in his life. I don't know if this decision is the right one."

The Thousand Bone Queen was confused and didn't understand the deeper meaning. She thought the Lord of the God-Falling Island was worried about Zhang Ruochen.

He comforted her, "If even the founder of the First Rank Divine Way couldn't find a way to deal with the massive calamity, then it's unlikely anyone else in the world would be able to come up with a solution. Grandfather has done everything he can, so there's no need to worry too much. Even if the massive calamity really comes and the world is destroyed, Qingchan will always be by Grandfather's side."

A smile appeared on the face of the Lord of the God-Falling Island. He said nothing more and just looked at the starry sky.

The chaotic fight among the ancestors of Tianhuang and the intertwined order of the ancestors of the Temple of Destiny naturally could not be hidden from him, the ancestor who was at the peak of the Tianshijizhong realm.

But he did not move, did not take any action, and just watched everything happen quietly like a bystander.

He was also aware that the Second and Fourth Confucian Patriarchs were heading to the Temple of Destiny.

It's ridiculous that billions of years of planning and tens of thousands of yuan of accumulation are no match for the Taoist sect of longevity that has only emerged for tens of thousands of years.

Even though he released the Hongmeng Black Dragon from Mount Buzhou, this great battle between ancestors that affected the course of the universe was still tilting towards the Changsheng Taoist sect.

What made him even more fearful was that the Taoist Changsheng still hadn't taken action until now in this battle, and it was obvious that he was on guard against him.

If he took action, the Taoist Master Changsheng might expand the killing plan against the Ancestor of the Underworld to include him as well.

"Who are you? The reincarnation of Pangu or the return of Queen Wa?"

"But it doesn't matter anymore. Since chaos is bound to happen, let's make it even more chaotic. Only with chaos can I have a chance of success."

……

The battle at the Temple of Destiny has moved outside the Forest of No Return.

It was the Second Confucian Ancestor who used the chess formation of heaven and earth to move all the powerful people away.

Niangniang Shiji teamed up with Feng Caiyi, Tianmu, Fengdu Emperor and other gods in hell to suppress Lei Gong by dismembering and beheading the gods.

Candeng, Afuya and the Second Confucian Ancestor join forces to fight the Corpse Nightmare and the Hongmeng Black Dragon.

Candeng, who has grown hair, has an incredibly strong fighting power. He is not on the same level as the Corpse Nightmare and the like. He should have participated in the battlefield of the Nether Ancestor, but for safety reasons, he was invited by Chen Ping to the Temple of Destiny to fry fish.

The second Confucian ancestor was also extraordinary. Although he was the ancestor of the ninety-fifth level of spiritual power, he had already reached the pinnacle of the ninety-fifth level and was only one step away from the ninety-sixth level.

Afuya has integrated two lives and her strength is equally impressive.

When the three of them joined forces, the Corpse Nightmare and the Hongmeng Black Dragon were no match at all and were beaten back step by step.

The battle between the five ancestors started from the Wugui Forest to the Santuo River, all the way to the Wangming Bone Ridge, and reached the top of the Netherworld Purgatory.

The eighteen levels of the Netherworld Purgatory are like eighteen large worlds, thick and deep, with the power of the Netherworld Ancestor remaining inside.

The corpse nightmare held the Zhou Ding in his hand, drawing on the power of the Nine Dings to block Afuya's arrow, but was immediately hit in the chest by Candeng's halberd and thrown out.

He tried to borrow the power of the Underworld Ancestor from the Netherworld Purgatory, but after some attempts there was no response. Only then did he truly accept the fact that the Underworld Ancestor was also experiencing a great war.

"Candeng's strength is terrifyingly strong. We can't fight any longer, otherwise we will be in real danger of dying today." Shi Yan wanted to retreat and planned to abandon the Hongmeng Black Dragon and escape alone.

But just as the thought came to mind, there was a sudden movement in the Netherworld Purgatory below, and the endless dark light boiled up almost instantly.

The corpse nightmare was overjoyed, but immediately realized something was wrong.

These dark lights did not help him, but instead burst out with a powerful attraction, trying to suck him in.

The Santuo River shook violently, and the eighteen levels of the Netherworld Purgatory slowly flew up as if they had been summoned by something, and the terrifying suction force devoured everything around them.

Candeng took the Second Confucian Ancestor and Afuya back to a safe area, and at the same time used his magical powers to cut off the retreat of the Corpse Nightmare and the Hongmeng Black Dragon.

The two could only watch helplessly as they were swallowed into the netherworld purgatory.

Outside the Kunlun Realm, the Ghost Gate stands tall and majestic, blocking the sea of ​​stars.

But at this moment, a great force descended, like an invisible giant hand, severing the connection between Ghost Gate and this world, and forcibly pulling it away.

After the Ghost Gate was taken away, the next moment, a flowing figure appeared in the starry sky.

The ancestor of time and space had a rather grim expression on his face, and he immediately sensed that the Netherworld Purgatory and the Ghost Gate were both approaching the direction of the Longevity Forbidden Zone.

He also sensed the Sword Pavilion and the Netherworld Dungeon, which had long lost their sensitivity.

These four artifacts together form a complete seventy-two-story tower, which is the number one artifact in the war galaxy that he refined with all his energy and resources.

"What does he want to do? Is he trying to rebuild the seventy-two-story pagoda?"

The Ancestor of Time and Space could no longer remain calm. The Taoist Immortal already had tremendous combat power. If he could get the help of the seventy-two-story tower, he would be truly invincible under the Yuanshi.

If it is really the return of Queen Nuwa and the rebirth of Pangu, with the seventy-two-story tower in hand, Yuanshi may not be able to gain the upper hand in the home turf of the War Galaxy.
