The Great Ruler: Starting from the Dark Ages

Chapter 117 Chaotic Body King Bo (Two Chapters Combined)

Regardless of which of these two conjectures is right or wrong, true or false, countless emperors throughout history have ultimately failed to enter the realm of immortals.

The primordial spirit of the Immortal Realm Supreme did not last long either. It was extremely decayed. Its primordial spirit was eroded and barely managed to survive for a moment before finally turning into a stream of light and disappearing.

Lingbao Tianzun silently put away the blue flesh and blood, explaining to everyone that he wanted to bury him in peace. Only he himself knew that this was to prevent the tragedy of the Emperor from happening again.

"It seems that a calamity of corpses has broken out in the Immortal Realm, and the situation in the myriad realms is even worse than we imagined," Xu He said to the group.

Originally, only Lingbao Tianzun and Xu He had ideas about the Immortal Realm, and Duan De also had some understanding of it.

However, neither the Azure Emperor nor the mysterious new emperor knew this. They had only heard about the matter of the Celestial Venerable Lingbao slaying the immortal corpse, and only after seeing it now did they have some speculation.

Xu He has not concealed anything.

In his view, the people around him were indeed exceptional individuals, and knowing about this matter might not be a bad thing; it could even become an excellent asset.

"Why would the Heavenly Emperor know so many secrets?" the mysterious new emperor asked at this moment. "But does the existence of a single Immortal Realm Supreme corrupted by darkness prove anything?"

"We haven't even seen anyone at the True Immortal level, who knows what happened?"

The mysterious new emperor looked towards the vast hole at the edge of the universe, where endless gales carrying chaotic energy blew in, causing his beautiful hair to flutter wildly.

As soon as the words were spoken, Lingbao Tianzun and Qingdi and the others all turned their gazes toward the new emperor.

There was a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

Perhaps these are all normal reactions, and there is no right or wrong.

Among the people present, Xu He had saved the lives of Lingbao Tianzun and Qingdi, while Duan De sincerely believed that Xu He was the one he should wait for.

This mysterious new emperor, however, has remained low-key since taking the throne and has not had much interaction with the other emperors.

But they could all sense that this mysterious new emperor was extremely powerful, not only in his attitude but also in his strength.

"Please don't misunderstand," the mysterious new emperor said hastily, glancing at the extremely hostile emperor.
"The Immortal Realm is always linked to becoming an immortal. Which of us cultivators doesn't want to become an immortal?"

"Does the Heavenly Emperor intend to destroy all our efforts over millennia with just a single sentence? I doubt that's convincing enough."

These words did indeed ease the tense atmosphere to some extent.

The supreme beings also fell silent at this moment, unsure of what to say.

“Indeed, a person who can defy the heavens and live twice is not enough to convince you with just a little evidence at the moment.” Xu He looked at the mysterious new emperor and spoke calmly.

The new emperor narrowed his eyes and looked directly at Xu He, his voice somewhat cold: "What else does the Heavenly Emperor know? Why not tell me everything?"

"A chaotic body unlike any other in the world, whose remaining primordial spirit can live another life, is nothing short of a miracle." Xu He's words carried a hint of disbelief.

However, this incredible detail was interpreted as a different story by Lingbao Tianzun and Dujie Tianzun.

In the mythical era, a true chaotic being once appeared. His rise terrified countless people, and in the end, a Celestial Venerable chose to intervene and prevent him from reaching the peak Quasi-Emperor realm.

That battle of gods was truly unprecedented.

The Chaos Body died, its body transformed into the Burial Emperor Star. The Celestial Venerable did not discover the Chaos Body's origin, but instead passed away after being severely injured.

Xu He said that the new emperor was that person's remaining primordial spirit reborn.

The identity of the person before them was about to be revealed.

Chaotic King Bo.

"It's you! To survive that battle and become an emperor in this lifetime, with your Chaotic Body... truly a physique unparalleled throughout the ages," Duan De said, looking at the new emperor.

The other supreme beings also expressed their own feelings.

Aside from being shocked by Wang Bo's miraculous return, they were also terrified that Xu He knew the secrets.

This terror not only permeated the lives of the supreme rulers, but also lingered in the heart of the new emperor, Bo.

They were indeed surprised by the secrets Xu He had revealed in the past, and shocked by his extraordinary abilities. However, those secrets had been exposed to the world to some extent.

Some clues can still be deduced, but there are very few people in the world who can do such deductions, even including the supreme beings of all ages.

Duan De's past lives were truly known only to him.

Now there is one more: the Chaos Entity that has been resurrected after death.

The new emperor's expression froze, his eyes flickering as if he were deep in thought.

After a long pause, he said, "It seems the Heavenly Emperor does indeed know many secrets."

He was certain that no one would know about his remaining dormant primordial spirit, otherwise he would not have lived to this life and would have been erased by the Heavenly Venerable long ago.

But how did the Heavenly Emperor find out?
“Heavenly Emperor, I believe you. I will believe you even if there was no corpse calamity, but…” The new emperor Bo paused, “Can you tell me how you know this?”

"You have too many rumors and too many secrets to know."

In these two lifetimes, Wang Bo has rebuilt his cultivation and risen from the path of the emperor. He has already heard all the rumors about Xu He's rise and the endless secrets that have made him feel strange. Therefore, he has never questioned or even challenged the authority of the Heavenly Emperor.

"When it comes to secrets, probably no one in the world knows more than you. Whether it's the carefree Heavenly Venerable of the Reincarnation Sea, the Suppressor of Hell in the Underworld, or everything in the Phoenix Nest... you even know about the historical records of the Ancient Heavenly Court and things before the Mythical Era."

As soon as the words were spoken, all the supreme beings fell silent.

They all knew about these things, but when the old stories were brought up again and one secret after another was laid out in front of everyone, it was truly chilling.

How did the Heavenly Emperor find out?

Chaos King Bo continued speaking without pausing:
"In terms of extraordinary cultivation and methods, he could find the Tribulation-Crossing Celestial Venerable who buried himself, bring the Spirit Treasure Celestial Venerable back to life, and make the Azure Emperor reappear in the mortal world."

“Heavenly Emperor, you know too much, and your strength is too great. You are also completely aware of my affairs. This can no longer be explained simply by knowing secrets.”

Before he finished speaking, the Supreme Beings all turned their gazes to Xu He. They had never expected that Wang Bo, the Chaos Body, could grasp so many key points in his words.

At this moment, several emperors were drawn into deep thought by Wang Bo, mainly because Xu He had acted too mysteriously.

It is unknown how he started out. The earliest record appears in the Big Dipper, where a minor cultivator was being hunted down by a holy land.

The innate sacred body and Dao embryo are almost comparable to the chaotic body. Such a heaven-defying physique is accompanied by extraordinary phenomena of heaven and earth at birth.

If one were born in the Big Dipper constellation, the spiritual energy of the celestial realm of the Burial Emperor Star would likely be completely drained.

Even the names of his parents were unknown. When the Heavenly Emperor appeared in the Big Dipper, all his interpersonal relationships were zero, and no information could be found.

It's as if I suddenly appeared in this world.

"Heavenly Emperor, you are too mysterious." Several supreme beings exclaimed at this moment.

They also wanted to know the origins of the Heavenly Emperor, to unveil this veil of mystery, or at the very least, to understand why the Heavenly Emperor knew so many secrets.

“If the Heavenly Emperor is unwilling to speak, we naturally do not have the power to force you to speak, nor do we have the intention to do so,” said Lingbao Tianzun.

"The Heavenly Emperor rose from the Burial Emperor Star, fought on the Ancient Star Road, and established his Dao in the Ziwei Star Region." Chaos Body King Bo said slowly, "But when I set foot on the Ancient Star Road and searched for the Burial Emperor Star and the Ziwei Star Region, I never heard of any earth-shattering phenomena in the past 100,000 years."

There were minor anomalies, but they were not worthy of the prestige of the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo.

"Moreover, in the past 100,000 years, I have never heard of any sacred body or Dao embryo," Wang Bo continued. The only Dao embryo that has ever appeared was that of a holy maiden from a certain holy land in the Eastern Wilderness.

But that was more than six thousand years after the Heavenly Emperor's Holy Body had reached its full potential.

"It seems you've been asking around about me quite a bit," Xu He said to Wang Bo with some emotion.

His mind was indeed meticulous, and his behavior was extremely cautious. In both lifetimes, he never flaunted his abilities, nor did he ever reveal the aura of his Chaos Body.

Even with Xu He's extraordinary perception, he still had doubts when he attained enlightenment.

"You flatter me, Your Majesty," Wang Bo said.

“My home is indeed not the Ziwei Star Region, nor the Burial Emperor Star. Its existence is insignificant, and more than 99% of the cultivators in the universe have never paid attention to it.” Xu He was telling the truth. Those cultivators who rarely cared about Blue Star were almost all at the Great Emperor level.

"However, I haven't set foot in my hometown for a long time." Xu He's eyes were lowered, and he had also thought about going back to his hometown to take a look.

However, by the time he truly rose to prominence and was able to traverse star systems, several hundred years had already passed.

Everything had changed, and later he truly embarked on the ancient road to the stars, step by step, punch by punch, completely crushing all enemies in front of him.

Looking back, darkness and turmoil had already arrived.

When he reached the summit and gazed at the blue planet from the ancient star Mars, the great array there activated on its own, accompanied by fluctuations in causality.

At that time, Xu He felt helpless, and he also thought it was because Ye Fan was afraid that his early appearance would have irreversible consequences.

But now, Xu He has a different idea.

Ye Fan has not appeared in the world for nearly 100,000 years.
Perhaps that causal law wasn't because of Ye Fan, but because of himself.

The reason for all this may be revealed someday in the future, which will prove Xu He's idea.

"Of course, the people there are very simple and honest, but I don't want you to disturb my hometown. There are no sacred treasures there."

As soon as the words were spoken, all the supreme beings nodded in agreement.

They were only interested in the Heavenly Emperor's origins; as for any divine treasures...
There are really not many divine treasures in the world that would interest an emperor, especially since every emperor here today has lived at least two lifetimes.

Even immortal elixirs might not be of any interest to them.

Seeing the several supreme beings nod, Xu He continued, "As for why I know so many secrets?"

Xu He smiled and said, "That's because I once saw an ancient history book, which recorded many extraordinary people and anecdotes from the Immortal Ancient Era to the present."

"Of course, the events before the Chaotic Ancient Era are not described in great detail, and the events after the Chaotic Ancient Era can only be described in general terms. Only the events of the Post-Desolate Ancient Era are described in more detail."

"Although there are many loopholes and some inconsistencies, it is certain that its creator must be an extremely skilled person."

These were truly heartfelt words; Xu He could swear on his life to the great road.

But the group of supreme beings before them clearly did not think so.

Even though Xu He's expression was incredibly sincere, showing no sign of lying, his remarks were truly unprecedented.

What mysterious supreme powerhouse? Is he so powerful that he can see through the grudges between some celestial beings? Does he know all the truth and falsehoods in the story?

This is obviously impossible.

Although they didn't believe it, the supreme beings had no other choice. If the Heavenly Emperor was unwilling to speak, could they really force him?
"If you don't want to believe it, then so be it," Xu He sighed, not expecting the others to believe it anyway.

Just then, a sudden sound rang out, stirring up the thoughts of the group.

"I believe."

Xu He raised an eyebrow, looking at the source of the sound with some surprise.

Several supreme beings also looked over.

At this moment, the Chaos Body King Bo was deep in thought with a serious expression.

He spoke after a long pause:
“I believe this; it reminds me of a rumor.”

“Some people have lived from ancient times to the present, truly achieving immortality in the mortal world, witnessing and inscribing one ancient history after another with their own eyes, and are known as…”

"A witness to the past and present!"

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone was startled.

Witnesses of the past and present—could there really be someone who can witness the past and present?
Although it was hard to believe, the supreme beings still pondered at this moment, especially Duan De.

When he heard about witnessing and recording one ancient history after another, his mind was struck as if by lightning.

He remembered that, seemingly during the chaotic ancient era, in the primordial imperial city, he saw a face emerge from the lower reaches of the world's long river, and then a person walked out.

That person was unparalleled and possessed extraordinary heroic spirit.

Holding a nine-colored cauldron, from which primordial chaos and the primordial energy of all things cascaded, it appeared as small as a bowl, yet was as vast as the universe.

It truly breathes in and out the sun, moon, and stars.

At that time, the imposing man did not back down in the face of the immortal king from another land, but instead said things like "I'll kill you before I go back."

Duan De's mind was in a state of confusion.

He couldn't quite remember whether he had witnessed this scene firsthand.

Or perhaps you heard this from someone else.

Duan De held his forehead, as countless fragments of memories surged within him, crashing against his mind like waves crashing on the shore.

He can no longer remember many things, as if something is preventing him from recalling them.

But he eventually remembered a crucial piece of information.

The imposing figure who rode the cauldron seemed to bear a striking resemblance to his friend Shi Hao.

He wouldn't misremember this, nor would he forget it.

At that moment, he looked up at Xu He and tried his best to superimpose the three faces together, and he actually succeeded.

"Is he the majestic man from later generations who rode the cauldron?" Duan De looked at Xu He.

Connecting their physical characteristics, their long hair cascades down like a waterfall, and their eyes gleam like cold lightning.

Xu He forged the Nine Cauldrons, which seems to be related, but what doesn't fit is that the other person's cauldron is somewhat different. It is absorbing and exhaling the primordial energy of all things, and it seems to have been forged using the primordial energy of all things as a carrier.

Moreover, the man seemed to dislike his cauldron, and walked around on it.

It felt as if the Imperial Weapon had done something to wrong him.

Moreover, Xu He's imperial weapon seems to have been mostly used as a sword from beginning to end, and has become a continuation of the Great Dao and life. Even if it is used less, it will not be as he has seen.
