The Great Ruler: Starting from the Dark Ages

Chapter 179 Changing Emperor Bone's Fate
The two strange Immortal Emperors remained expressionless when they saw Emperor Bone Brother charging towards them with the Great Luo Sword Embryo; their faces only held a mocking expression.

The sword energy was vast and could annihilate everything in the world, but clearly, those of the same realm were not included, let alone the two strange Immortal Emperors who had attained enlightenment long ago.

The two strange Immortal Emperors dodged the attack, and one of them, a rat, exclaimed in amazement:
"Not bad, it's passable, not disgracing the name of the Immortal Emperor, but that's about it."

Emperor Bone snorted coldly and raised his sword to attack the two strange Immortal Emperors once again.

This battle lasted a long time, and Emperor Bone's Great Luo Sword Embryo almost turned the entire region upside down.

But those two strange immortal emperors kept dodging.

Seeing that all his efforts had been in vain, Emperor Bone cursed angrily:

"You cowards! You neither fight nor retreat, what is the reason for this!"

Seeing Emperor Bone's anger, the two eerie Immortal Emperors laughed even more unrestrainedly:

"Why should we risk our lives to fight you when we can take you down without lifting a finger?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Bone's expression grew increasingly gloomy. For some reason, he felt that the Great Luo Sword Embryo in his hand was becoming heavier and heavier.

Until a feeling of dizziness came over me.

He looked down at his wound; the once bright red imperial blood was now tinged with black lines and exuded an eerie aura.

"The aura emanating from this wound... why is it so strange?" Emperor Bone frowned slightly, clenched his fists, looked at the two strange Immortal Emperors, and roared:

"You scoundrel! You think you can control me?"

Sensing Emperor Bone's anger, the two eerie Immortal Emperors laughed even more unrestrainedly.

"Hahahahahaha."

In fact, neither of the two strange Immortal Emperors expected that there would be such an arrogant Immortal Emperor in the heavens, who was completely unprepared when he was comprehending, truly showing no respect for anyone.

But it was precisely this arrogance that gave them an opportunity to take advantage of them.

At this moment, the Rat Immortal Emperor looked at Emperor Bone Brother and said:

"Before us, you either submit or die."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Bone snorted coldly, his eyes growing even colder:
"You are simply not qualified!"

Taking advantage of the moment when the two strange immortal emperors were laughing, Emperor Bone suddenly sprang up, wielding the Great Luo Sword Embryo in his hand, and actually severed the arm of one of the strange immortal emperors.

"what!"

The Rat Immortal Emperor roared in pain, clutching his severed arm and rapidly pulling himself away.

Meanwhile, another strange Immortal Emperor on the side did not hesitate and immediately attacked Emperor Bone Brother.

Emperor Bone took the blow head-on from the strange Immortal Emperor, but then raised his hand and swung his sword again.

Upon seeing this, the eerie Immortal Emperor hurriedly dodged away, but was ultimately affected and let out a painful scream.

Emperor Bone, clutching the wound gushing forth imperial blood, desperately tried to stop the erosion, and angrily cursed at the two strange Immortal Emperors:
"A bunch of filthy creatures, you don't even dare to face my sword, how dare you talk about submission! If you face me one-on-one, you will only face death!"

As soon as the words were spoken, both of the strange Immortal Emperors turned cold.

“Don’t kill him. I want him to be corrupted and become a lackey of my clan. I want him to watch himself decay little by little, to watch himself gradually descend into darkness, and to stifle his former self.”

"That's what the Rat Immortal Emperor said."

His thoughts were extremely cruel. He had already guessed that Emperor Bone was not a native of the heavens, so he had another cruel idea.

That was to allow the corrupted Emperor Bone to run back to the lower realm, ultimately making him the murderer who destroyed everything.

"Come and fight!"

Emperor Bone, wielding the Great Luo Sword Embryo, once again charged towards the two strange Immortal Emperors.

Even though he had only recently attained enlightenment and even though he had strange injuries, he still refused to die with resentment.

His sword aura grew increasingly fierce.

This battle was fierce, causing chaos and upheaval, with blood raining down.

Gradually, Emperor Bone was no match for him.

They were struggling to cope with the attacks of the two strange immortal emperors.

"If only I had stabilized my realm back then... if only I hadn't been so arrogant..." One thought after another arose in Emperor Bone's mind.

But in the end, as a long spear pierced his chest, tearing out a large amount of blood, Emperor Bone Bro was finally defeated.

His body flew backwards and only stopped after a long time.

At this moment, he finally saw clearly the dilapidated graves and the nameless bones in the sea of ​​blood.

Perhaps today, I will become one of them.

"Submit, or die." The Rat Immortal Emperor asked again, his condition also extremely poor, almost being cleaved in two by Emperor Bone Brother.

"You... are not worthy." Emperor Bone Bro said the same thing again: "I never thought I would be defeated by you. It's ridiculous."

It seems that Emperor Bone Brother really doesn't have much time left.

Seeing this, the Rat Immortal Emperor snorted and walked over: "I like people with such a tough personality, but the tougher they are, the more I like them to live a humiliating life."

The Rat Immortal Emperor approached, forcing out a drop of dark primordial blood essence:

"I'll give you something nice."

He looked at Emperor Bone indifferently, as if everything was already set in stone.

But he didn't see at all that Emperor Bone Brother's hand holding the Great Luo Sword Embryo had already quietly risen.

Just as that drop of dark primordial blood was about to merge into Emperor Bone's body, sword energy surged at that moment.

The Rat Immortal Emperor was actually cleaved in two by force!

split into two!
Even his primordial spirit was cleaved in two, dimming instantly and nearly perishing!

The Rat Immortal Emperor hissed, completely unprepared for the sudden outburst from the already dying Emperor Bone Brother.

The other strange immortal emperor beside him was also in a daze; all of this was too bizarre.

But Emperor Bone was the one who was most shocked.

Because that sword strike wasn't actually wielded by him!
In other words, someone has come to help!
"Thank goodness, we didn't fail at the last minute." Xu He finally arrived on this battlefield.

The Great Dao Sword in his hand still exuded terrifying power, causing the three Immortal Emperors present to feel a terrifying killing intent.

At this moment, the two strange Immortal Emperors also realized what was happening and immediately asked:

"Another unfamiliar face? Could it be that several Immortal Emperor-level figures can really be born in this lower realm?"

It should be noted that even in the heavens, beings at the Immortal Emperor level are extremely rare.

However, two more appeared in the lower realm.

The newly appeared one is clearly stronger.

They are even stronger than them.

The two strange Immortal Emperors were on guard, and Emperor Bone Brother was also puzzled, but Xu He walked towards Emperor Bone Brother as if no one was there.

"It wasn't easy, it wasn't easy at all." Xu He breathed a sigh of relief.

Emperor Bone is currently being corrupted, but not at its core; in other words, there is hope for salvation.

Without hesitation, Xu He immediately unleashed imperial light, a gentle yet powerful force that burned away all the darkness.

"Who are you, fellow Daoist?" Emperor Bone asked curiously, looking at the suddenly appearing Xu He.

He had ruled over all the heavens for countless years and had never seen Xu He, yet Xu He seemed to know him intimately.

Most importantly, it is Xu He's strength.

With a single sword strike, he cleaved one of the strange Immortal Emperors in two, nearly killing him on the spot.

You have to understand, even in his prime, he couldn't have accomplished something like this with a single sword strike. He had indeed considered taking advantage of the Rat Immortal Emperor's momentary lapse in vigilance to unleash a sword strike and take him down with him.

Emperor Bone Brother was unsure of the power of this sword strike, but Xu He's sword strike almost accomplished the task.

Therefore, his curiosity about Xu He reached its peak.

"Don't ask any of this nonsense. Open this box and you'll know everything." Xu He said, handing the rotten wooden box in his hand to Emperor Bone.

Emperor Bone was initially somewhat skeptical and wanted to say something, but the moment he touched the rotten wooden box, his expression changed instantly.

His imperial aura surged at this moment.

He reached out and opened the rotten wooden box, inside which was a broken body and a shattered primordial spirit.

The next moment, the broken body and primordial spirit transformed into a beam of immortal light, instantly merging into Emperor Bone Brother's body.

In an instant, Emperor Bone's body began to glow, and an even more domineering Immortal Emperor's aura swept across the sea of ​​blood.

“This is…” One of the strange Immortal Emperors coldly watched this scene.

"There's something strange about that box!"

In the brief moment of contact, it was actually repairing the already dying Emperor Bone Brother.

What alarmed them even more was the shared aura, which meant that this kind of repair could not be restricted at all.

Even without a solid foundation, one can begin to possess one from this very moment!

Who exactly is this new person?

"Does Your Excellency truly wish to become an enemy of my Strange Clan?" one of the Strange Immortal Emperors asked.

He could vaguely sense that Xu He's strength was above his own.

He continued to patiently guide him:
"With your strength, you are welcome to join my strange clan. Many people have chosen this bright path, and history will prove that they made the right choice."

Upon hearing this, Xu He simply shook his head silently.
"My hands are stained with too much of your clan's blood; no one can tolerate me."

"How could that be? If you're worried about being rejected by my clan for killing someone, I can handle that myself." The eerie Immortal Emperor was quite confident.

In his view, having Xu He join the strange clan would both strengthen the clan and prevent the current disaster, achieving two goals at once.

"Really?" Xu He raised an eyebrow.

"Really," the eerie Immortal Emperor said, patting his chest.

Upon seeing this, Xu He smiled:
"It seems that the Strange Clan is truly magnanimous. I wonder if they will still tolerate me after I killed two Strange Immortal Emperors."

As soon as the words were spoken, the eerie Immortal Emperor's expression froze, replaced by boundless rage.

"You scoundrel, you're too arrogant! Do you think I'm just playing around with you?" the eerie Immortal Emperor roared.

Xu He merely snorted coldly upon hearing this:

"If it weren't for waiting for him to recover his strength, I wouldn't bother talking to you."

As soon as Xu He finished speaking, Emperor Bone Brother beside him was enveloped in a surge of blood energy, and he swung the Great Luo Sword Embryo toward the Rat Immortal Emperor.

Xu He does indeed possess the ability to fight two strange Immortal Emperors single-handedly.

However, this level of warfare cannot afford to be distracted. If it spreads to Emperor Bone, or if the Weird Clan reinforces its troops again, Xu He's efforts will be in vain.

Currently, Emperor Bone Brother has recovered to his peak condition, and even shows signs of further improvement. He is now in a state sufficient to save his life and even kill one of the strange Immortal Emperors.

Xu He looked at the rat immortal emperor.

He had already been severely injured by Emperor Bone Brother, and just now he was cleaved in two by Xu He.

Although he has recovered for some time now, this world is definitely not as complete as Emperor Bone's recovery.

"You scoundrel! I'll kill you!" Emperor Bone Brother swung the Great Luo Sword Embryo, severing the Rat Immortal Emperor's arm once more.

This attack was fueled by his rage, and the sheer power of his sword energy surprised even Xu He.

Having been holding in a lot of anger, now is the time to explode.

The rat immortal emperor felt pain and truly felt deathly energy permeating his body, so he fled in panic.

Meanwhile, seeing his companion about to perish, another strange Immortal Emperor's expression turned cold, and he immediately went to provide support.

But just as he took his first step, an even more powerful sword aura slashed down.

It is even more powerful than Emperor Bone's sword energy.

"Take one step away, and you die." Xu He held the Great Dao Sword and spoke with extreme arrogance.

Seeing this, the eerie Immortal Emperor's expression grew even more gloomy, and he looked at Xu He and said:
"Do you truly intend to become an enemy of my strange race?"

Xu He remained silent, but his sword aura grew even more fierce.

The eerie Immortal Emperor flashed his sword energy and coldly snorted:

"Do you know that my strange race is blessed by heaven, immortal and..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xu He interrupted him:
"Immortal and indestructible, is that it? So what if the plateau can revive you?" Xu He's tone was icy: "So what if you can be revived?"

He took a step forward, holding the Great Dao Sword and pointing it at the eerie Immortal Emperor:

"Every time you are resurrected, I will kill you once."

"We will continue to fight until no one in the world dares to claim supremacy, until the plateau is destroyed and the ancestor dies."

Xu He's words were calm, yet they seemed to contain boundless power, like a thunderclap.

For some reason, the strange immortal emperor standing before him would have only met with ridicule and sarcasm in the past for such arrogant words.

But when faced with Xu He, he couldn't even muster the thought of refuting him.

He was struck dumb, frozen in place as if by lightning.

What arrogance! To slaughter until no one in the world dares to claim supremacy, to slaughter until the plateau is destroyed, and the ancestor's life is over.

It's one thing for others, but the strange Immortal Emperor could just laugh it off and then take their lives.

But now, his strength is clearly inferior to Xu He's. Moreover, this person knows that Gao Yuan can revive the strange race and also knows about the strange ancestor. How dare he be so arrogant?

The Mysterious Immortal Emperor could sense that Xu He before him was indeed an Immortal Emperor.

But what gives this person the confidence and ability to say such things?

"You...you...you..." The eerie Immortal Emperor gasped for breath, unable to shake off the overwhelming fear for a long time.

At this moment, Xu He's eyes were filled with golden light, and his blood energy began to surge, as vast as the starry sky.

“In the past, I only killed a few strange immortal kings and dark quasi-immortal emperors, and I always felt that something was missing.”

Xu He, carrying the Great Dao Sword, walked step by step toward the eerie Immortal Emperor.

With each step Xu He took forward, the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood beneath his feet would boil once more.

As a result, this entire realm began to present a scene even more terrifying than darkness and eeriness.

The sky seemed to collapse and the earth cracked, with lightning flashing and thunder roaring, as if the entire heavens were responding to Xu He.

Xu He continued walking forward, ignoring Emperor Bone Brother who was chasing after the Rat Immortal Emperor.

"Now I understand. The ants I killed in the past were too weak, not qualified at all, and not enough to prove anything to you."

Seeing Xu He closing in step by step, the eerie Immortal Emperor roared:

"What do you want to do!"

Xu He drew his sword, pointing it at the head of the eerie Immortal Emperor:

"Today, I'll use your head as a sacrifice for my flag!"
