The Great Ruler: Starting from the Dark Ages

Chapter 16 The Emperor of Heaven Reigns Over the World
Life is like a white horse stepping on snow. When you look up suddenly, the geese outside the eaves have written hundreds of human characters, and the green pines in front of the steps are covered with thousands of layers of moon frost.

The plants and trees in the world go through hundreds of cycles of withering and flourishing, but to Xu He, it is just a bright candle burning out on his desk.

A hundred years of time pass in the blink of an eye.

Xu He finally walked out of the temple and basked in the sunshine greedily. A hundred years was nothing more than a blink of an eye for Xu He, who had reached this level of cultivation.

Only this warm, drowsy spring light made Xu He feel alive.

"Old man, get up before you become a Taoist." Xu He walked up to the Great Sage Liyang and pushed him gently.

During these hundred years, the incense offerings at the Heavenly Emperor Temple have never ceased, and pilgrims have come in an endless stream, making the Great Sage Liyang seem less lonely.

"Your steps are becoming less and less silent." The Great Sage Li Yang rubbed his eyes and was frightened when he saw Xu He, who was restrained in front of him.

In the past, he could always feel the soul-shaking extreme pressure, but now, Xu He gave Li Yang the feeling of being a complete mortal, without any realm at all.

If it weren't for the unfilial words and the annoying look, Li Yang would have really thought it was a prank.

"Hasn't become emperor yet?" Li Yang looked up at Xu He.

To be honest, he was very anxious and couldn't wait to tell his old friend:

"My Disciple Who Has the Great Innate Holy Body and the Taoist Embryo" - The story of "My Disciple Who Is the Great Emperor".

As anxious as an old man who is eager to have a child and urges his wife to get married.

"Hmph, Lao Deng." Xu He raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you want the chance to become a Quasi-Emperor?"

"Yes." The Great Sage Liyang changed his expression, smiled, and stretched out his hand.

It is said that when one person succeeds, everyone around him will benefit. Today is the day to fulfill that promise.

Xu He raised his hand, and a jade box as big as a disk appeared in his palm: "Inside it are the experiences I have gained along the way as a Quasi-Emperor, as well as some medicinal pills and a bottle of blood essence. If I really run into trouble, that bottle of blood essence will allow me to descend briefly."

"If you can't break through to the Quasi-Emperor realm, then I'll have no choice but to find you an immortality elixir."

"Take care of yourself." Xu He reminded.

Li Yang was stunned. He felt as if Xu He was explaining his final affairs. His heart tightened and he quickly asked Xu He from behind, "Where are you going?"

Xu He stopped and looked at the endless stream of pilgrims: "I wonder if people still remember me after a hundred years?"

As soon as the words were spoken, a golden avenue was constructed, spreading out bit by bit.

Countless people looked at the Golden Avenue, recalling past memories and exclaiming, "Golden Avenue! Is the Emperor of Heaven on his way?"

"I can feel that the Emperor of Heaven has become stronger again! Just how strong has he become?"

Even if it was just a golden avenue, they would want to kneel down at this moment.

"Could it be that the Emperor of Heaven has already become the Emperor?"

"Where is he going? That direction is... Emperor Burial Star!"

More and more people were excited, even trembling. The place the Emperor was going to was the Emperor Burial Star. Was he going to the Holy Land? Or was he going to pacify the restricted area?
Someone shouted:

"The Emperor of Heaven is mighty. At worst, he can sink the Eastern Wasteland!"

Different from the excitement of the starry sky monks, almost at the moment when the golden avenue fell into the Emperor Burial Star, countless monks soared into the sky.

What a joke! If you don’t live in the Eastern Wilderness, you can talk without any worries. If you really want to unleash your ultimate imperial power, the entire Burial Emperor Galaxy will be shattered!
Unlike the other cultivators who escaped, Xu He walked along the Golden Avenue step by step. The entire Eastern Wilderness was shaking, and countless cultivators in seclusion were forced to come out and look at the sky in horror.

The dazzling golden avenue, the strong imperial power, the Emperor Xu He just stood there, as if all the laws were impressed by him and all the people were worshipping him.

From the golden avenue descended streams of divine grace, like waterfalls, illuminating the entire Eastern Wasteland. Xu He stood there, his majestic figure blazing and brilliant, like a sun hanging in the sky!
Countless people bowed down in worship, and when they looked up again, Xu He's figure had turned into a streak of light, and only the imperial power of the Golden Avenue remained.

Taichu Ancient Mine is an extremely ancient and mysterious restricted area. According to legend, Emperor Huangtian once mined here. Since ancient times, not many people dared to set foot here.

Now Xu He's Golden Avenue has been paved, and it seems as if there is no one in the area.

The ancient mine is shrouded in chaotic aura, making it difficult to see clearly.

"It's too dark." Xu He said lightly.

The next moment, his energy and blood exploded, the supreme imperial power spread, and golden light shone brightly, illuminating the entire Taichu Ancient Mine and unveiling its mysterious veil.

"Does the Human Emperor want to destroy the Taichu Ancient Mine?" An extremely cold voice came from the depths of the Taichu Ancient Mine. Now Xu He's actions showed absolutely no respect at all.

"The Emperor and the King cannot be insulted. Don't go too far."

The two consecutive voices ignited the vitality of the Taichu Ancient Mine. Countless people felt blood coming out of their ears and noses and their souls trembled when they heard the voices.

In the restricted area, all the supreme beings were restraining themselves. Even if Xu He's actions were a little excessive, as long as he didn't actually make a move, the supreme beings would never attack.

They are all old foxes who have been around for thousands of years, and no one has noble moral character, otherwise the Stone Emperor and the Lord of Reincarnation would not have dragged on and waited for the other to reach the highest level first during the turmoil.

Everyone has only one purpose for committing suicide: to become an immortal, or to not want to die.

If that's the case, they will definitely not take action.

After not seeing each other for a hundred years, they could all clearly sense that Xu He's strength had increased a lot. Perhaps if several supreme beings came together and reached the utmost sublimation, they could defeat him. But the question was, who was willing to be that supreme being who reached the utmost sublimation?
What's more, there are so many variables involved. If we fail to fight it out, wouldn't it be a huge joke?

Countless people in the outside world have held their breath, and some cultivators even hate their own weak strength that prevents them from escaping to the edge of the universe.

"Give it to me!" Xu He stretched out his left hand, and the surging blood and energy rushed into the cave along with his voice.

Everyone came to their senses. Was this dignified Heavenly Emperor now blatantly robbing? Or was he targeting the Supreme Beings in the restricted area?
The restricted area was silent, and all the supreme beings were weighing the pros and cons, and the final result was a compromise.

Not long after, a Taichu Life Stone as big as a washbasin flew out, flowing with rosy light and overflowing with fairy energy.

Xu He opened his hand and put it in his pocket, then stretched out his right hand.

"What do you mean? Are you going to force us to fight?" A supreme being in the restricted area was furious and was about to attack.

"Youngster, don't go too far!" There was also a supreme being who unleashed the imperial pressure.

Xu He's face was calm and unperturbed.

The two imperial powers only lasted for a cup of tea and eventually dissipated. Neither of the two supreme beings wanted to take the initiative to attack.

"There's an old saying in my hometown: You can't go to a friend's house empty-handed, and you can't return from a stranger's house empty-handed. Give me another dollar and I'll leave."

Xu He extended his right hand again.

Things have come to this point. Although the Supreme Being in the Taichu Ancient Mine wanted to riot, he finally restrained himself.

Another Taichu Life Stone as big as a washbasin flew out.

Xu He took it, turned around and left. Before leaving, he looked back and smiled: "Xu will come again another day."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu He walked away on the golden avenue, leaving behind the furious Forbidden Zone Supreme.

Watching Xu He's receding figure, some people felt uneasy, yet also somewhat expectant: "Will the Emperor of Heaven be traveling through the entire restricted area?"

Someone beside him immediately retorted, "Has anyone ever walked through the entire restricted area in one day? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
