The Great Ruler: Starting from the Dark Ages

Chapter 185: Immortal Emperor War
The red and black barrier blocked out the sky, and countless painful faces appeared on it, wailing out in agony.

These are the wronged souls of the Red-Haired Immortal Emperor's life of slaughter.

This move had killed too many who stood in his way in the past, and he believed that Xu He would become a wronged soul in the future.

But at this moment, Xu He showed no fear whatsoever.

The moment his fist struck the dome, the crimson-black barrier above it shattered instantly, like a mirror suddenly crashing to the ground and breaking into countless pieces.

Wherever the golden light passed, everything turned to ashes.

The countless wronged souls on the crimson-black barrier also cried out in pain at this moment, and were purified.

Xu He took a step, and the world trembled.

His back resembled a great dragon, and his entire body stood tall and straight. The arm that threw the punch still radiates an immortal imperial light.

There are no fancy doctrines or methods, only a fighting spirit that is simple to the extreme and pure to the extreme.

At this moment, the red-haired Immortal Emperor, witnessing the shattering of the crimson and black barriers, felt a tremendous tremor in his heart. His all-encompassing attack had never been so easily broken before.

He has always believed that this move cannot be easily broken by anyone other than the progenitor.

But Xu He did indeed succeed in one strike.

"No wonder he was so arrogant just now, it turns out he really has the strength to back him up." The Red-Haired Immortal Emperor sneered. Of course, he didn't think that Xu He's strength had reached the level of the progenitor.

However, he still harbors some concerns.

Did he really only cultivate for 500,000 years?
If it's true, then we absolutely cannot let it continue to develop!

Otherwise, the consequences will be dire!
"You dare to be distracted in front of me?" Xu He's voice suddenly rang out, and the next moment, an incomparably domineering imperial aura spread out.

The golden fist light reappeared, sweeping across the land with overwhelming force.

Xu He appeared behind the Red-Haired Immortal Emperor, and unleashed the Heavenly Emperor Fist once more. The Red-Haired Immortal Emperor only heard the sound, and while he trembled in pain, the Emperor Fist was already upon him.

"boom!"

Heaven and earth trembled, laws were disrupted, and the universe shook.

The Red-Haired Immortal Emperor struggled to dodge the punch, using countless techniques to create clones to avoid the attack, but the Emperor's Fist ruthlessly obliterated all the clones.

Even its own body was pierced through the head by this Emperor's Fist, and its body flew backward.

No matter how much he struggled, he was completely immobilized, as if nailed to the void.

Xu He calmly withdrew his fist, watching the red-haired Immortal Emperor's body fly backward, transforming into a shooting star that pierced through countless stars.

Wherever it goes, the world is ablaze.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. If anyone could see it, they would be astonished that the once mighty Red-haired Immortal Emperor was reduced to a mere clay chicken or earthen dog by this single blow.

"Next, it's your turn." Seeing that the red-haired Immortal Emperor, who had transformed into a shooting star, was still piercing through the stars, Xu He turned his gaze to the green-haired Immortal Emperor.

Xu He's figure shifted behind the Green-Haired Immortal Emperor in the next instant.

Sensing the terrifying aura, the Green-Haired Immortal Emperor reacted instantly, widening his stance and continuously putting on defense.

But he was ultimately too late.

His body was also punished by the Heavenly Emperor's Fist. Compared to the Red-Haired Immortal Emperor, he was lucky enough to avoid most of the damage, only losing most of his body.

Its body pierced through several stars before stopping.

He was much better than the red-haired immortal emperor who was still cosplaying as a meteor.

The Green-Haired Immortal Emperor, having regained his footing, did his best to repair his injuries.

Its body was imbued with the essence of an immortal emperor, the origin of darkness, and endless green fur that covered the entire sky.

"Just who is this person?" The Green-Haired Immortal Emperor felt the burning pain from his wound, which was still stimulating his nerves.

"Such strength could not possibly belong to a newly enlightened person. Could it be a figure from several eras ago who has crossed the river of time to arrive?"

The Green-Haired Immortal Emperor secretly pondered, looking at Xu He with eyes full of awe.

Xu He's body still stands tall in the sky.

His imperial aura and blood energy still lingered, vast and boundless, like a boundless ocean.

The surrounding mountains of corpses and seas of blood seemed somewhat laughable under this overwhelming aura of blood, like a frog at the bottom of a well looking at the bright moon.

Xu He took a step, approaching the Green-Haired Immortal Emperor step by step.

But at that moment, the red-haired Immortal Emperor, transformed into a demonic shadow, pounced and unleashed his terrifying offensive power, attacking Xu He's back.

This incredibly powerful strike could severely injure an unsuspecting Immortal Emperor at any time.

Unfortunately, Xu He was destined not to be Emperor Bone Brother.

Xu He's body surged with domineering blood energy, and the moment this blood energy appeared, it instantly condensed into a huge barrier around him. Its defensive power was so strong that even an Immortal Emperor could not get an inch in!
Xu He turned his head slightly, looking at the red-haired Immortal Emperor who had ambushed him from behind, his eyes somewhat cold:

"You think I'm some kind of Emperor Bone Bro? Completely defenseless?"

Xu He's words were laced with sarcasm towards the Red-Haired Immortal Emperor.

Since the Red-Haired Immortal Emperor had sensed the sarcasm in the voice, he didn't know what Xu He meant by "Emperor Bone Brother" or who he was.
He had no intention of asking further, but then he saw that Xu He seemed to be gathering something in his hand.

A sword hilt seemed to appear in the void.

Then, the sword itself appeared.

It was an extremely ethereal, somewhat hazy longsword.

Yet it was also extraordinary, exuding a power of law and the power of the Great Dao, and it did not belong to the heavens, but was like something completely new that had suddenly appeared.

The Great Dao above transformed into runes, flashing continuously, seemingly magnificent, yet bringing him endless death.

Upon seeing this sword of the Great Dao, the red-haired Immortal Emperor felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and something came to mind.

"It's you...it's you!"

Seeing the terrified expression on the red-haired Immortal Emperor's face, Xu He smiled slightly and nodded:
"Yes, it's me."

The Great Dao Sword in his hand had been fully condensed. The Red-Haired Immortal Emperor had already seen Xu He's movements clearly. He slightly raised his hand, clearly intending to split himself in two!
escape!
This was the only thought in the Red-Haired Immortal Emperor's mind.

Without the slightest hesitation, he quickly withdrew, and the next moment, his figure appeared outside of billions of planets.

But his escape did not bring him any hope of survival.

Above the dome, a huge sword blade appeared and suddenly slashed down from the sky.

It felt like the heavens were about to be split in two!
The heavens trembled, and the universe shook.

Cracks appeared in the sky and earth, as if someone had created the world.

The red-haired immortal emperor, whose strange and ominous red hair was completely burned away at this moment, was split in two, and even his primordial spirit was completely and smoothly cleaved apart.

If he hadn't been a Celestial Emperor-level expert with an extremely tenacious life force, he would probably have already perished.

Even so, the Red-Haired Immortal Emperor was now in a state of extreme panic. This attack was too powerful; it almost killed him.

That was just a single sword strike; throughout countless ages, he had never seen such a heaven-defying figure.

But it was precisely these unfamiliar laws and the Great Dao that made the Red-Haired Immortal Emperor even more certain of the newcomer.

"How did your strength rise to this level?" The Red-Haired Immortal Emperor abandoned his original tattered physical body and used his primordial spirit power to continuously reshape a new physical body.

He was certain that Xu He before him was the person recorded in their clan's records who had wreaked havoc in the Boundary Sea countless ages ago.

It seems that he single-handedly killed two Dark Immortal Emperors of their clan.

However, those two were not among the strongest Immortal Emperors. If they were divided into three tiers—upper, middle, and lower—they would only be at the lower tier.

According to the two Immortal Emperors, Xu He was very strong and suppressed them throughout the entire process, but they were not completely without the ability to fight back.

Judging from this, even if Xu He was able to kill him at that time, he must have been a mid-level force.

Of course, this was also partly due to the two strange Immortal Emperors exaggerating their own abilities to save face.

The reason why the Red-Haired Immortal Emperor had this suspicion was that Xu He, with his own strength, with a punch and a sword, had almost killed him, an Immortal Emperor who was approaching the top level.

This person's strength is definitely at the peak among Immortal Emperors!

"Run!" the red-haired Immortal Emperor shouted to the green-haired Immortal Emperor, "He is that person from a long time ago."

At first, the Green-Haired Immortal Emperor was somewhat confused, but gradually he came to understand, and even his gaze towards Xu He carried a hint of fear.

"You...who are you?"

Xu He held the Sword of the Great Dao, a slight smile appearing on his face.

How could you not remember me?

"The kill order has been in effect for so long, and you still don't know who I am?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the Green-Haired Immortal Emperor's pupils constricted sharply, and he realized what was happening at that moment:
"It's you...it's you!"

Xu He held the Sword of the Great Dao in his hand, his face still calm and composed.

However, his aura was constantly rising, as if to prove his strength and also to show that he was worth being hunted by the strange race.

Xu He's imperial might was too overwhelming; even the two strange immortal emperors found it difficult to withstand its suppression.

Before him, it seemed that all emperors were false emperors, and only he alone remained immortal.

This thought is terrifying.

Even the Red-Haired Immortal Emperor and the Green-Haired Immortal Emperor found it difficult to cope.

It should be understood that those who have cultivated to this level are all protagonists of several eras, these strange immortal emperors, and even inheritors of the ancestral consciousness.

It's unbelievable that I can feel fear and awe towards a person now.

A once-in-a-lifetime sight!

Seeing the two eerie Immortal Emperors trembling involuntarily, Xu He silently raised his sword, unleashing an immeasurable and sharp aura:

"I'll ask you one more time: Did you see two brutes and a stunningly beautiful woman?"

Xu He's relentless pressure had no effect; instead, it enraged the two strange immortal emperors.

The Green-Haired Immortal Emperor laughed loudly: "Hahahaha...Why should I tell you?"

As an emperor, he possessed his own majesty, overlooking the world for eternity. Even in defeat, he could not be humiliated.

The Green-Haired Immortal Emperor was well aware of the consequences of his actions, but so what? It was nothing more than death.

So what if someone dies? It's not like they can't be brought back to life.
If all else fails, we can always resurrect and fight again!
"You seem quite concerned about those people, but let me tell you, they all face certain death, including you!" the Green-Haired Immortal Emperor roared.

"Offending my people will only lead to death. Death and darkness are the end of everything! This will not change because of anyone!"

"Many years ago, there was a woman in the heavens who defied the heavens just like you, but what was her fate? Her blood was spilled on her ancestral land. What can you use to fight her now?"

The Green-Haired Immortal Emperor roared, trying to use this to resist Xu He's oppressive aura.

However, Xu He's aura became increasingly fierce, as if a storm of sword energy was sweeping around him.

In an instant, a lot of hair was shaved off the Green-Haired Immortal Emperor, and the flower knife was changed.

Green hair flew everywhere, while the Green-Haired Immortal Emperor had his skin torn open, and strange, ominous black blood flowed from his wounds.

Xu He's eyes were icy cold; he knew who the Green-Haired Immortal Emperor was referring to.

Pollen Emperor, the founder of the pollen system.

A powerhouse at the Sacrifice Dao level can be considered to be a figure standing at the highest level in all the heavens and myriad realms.

He fought a bloody battle on the plateau single-handedly, but unfortunately he was outnumbered. Perhaps even the Pollen Emperor never imagined that the ancestors of the plateau would only have two hands.

Even if only a portion of them were to fight against him, the Pollen Emperor's strength was already formidable.

The three of them, Huang Yechu, Huang Yechu, and Huang Yechu, were also extremely strong in later generations. It can only be said that the difference in strength was too great, and it was too difficult to turn the tide.

If the numbers hadn't been so disparate, perhaps the battle wouldn't have ended so tragically.

"I don't think there will be any disaster in offending your strange clan. I have heard this sentence for hundreds of thousands of years. On the contrary, I feel refreshed and invigorated.

Xu He recalled every dark creature that had said such words to him.

Without exception, they all died.

After the war, Xu He's strength improved by leaps and bounds once again.

After a moment, Xu He seemed somewhat sentimental, as if he had truly foreseen something:
"I feel as if I am seeing a new life."

“One day, I will overturn the plateau, restore life and vitality to this world, and make these heavens no longer your strange race’s vegetable garden and breeding ground.”

"Eternal night? I don't believe it. One day, the sun will rise as usual, which means the night will end and the day will begin."

Xu He's voice carried a sense of vicissitude. Even though the difference in strength between him and others on the plateau was too great, as long as someone was there and heard Xu He's words, they would believe him without hesitation.

Heaven and earth seemed to be confirming this point. Even deep in the heavens, even in unfamiliar laws and great principles, even in areas where most of the land was being eroded by strange forces and covered by ominous and ominous intent.

It continues to vibrate at this moment, as if in response to Xu He's words.

Even more so, the river of time reappeared, engraving Xu He's words one by one. The rolling river of time carried Xu He's words throughout the heavens, resonating through the past, present, and future.

All of this made the two strange Immortal Emperors feel somewhat terrified.

If someone else had uttered such arrogant words, they would have only been laughed at, but when Xu He said them, they resonated with heaven and earth and echoed through the long river of time.

Could it be that this person's resolve is truly that strong?
Could it be that this person will rise to prominence in the future and become a figure like that mysterious woman, capable of stirring up the winds and clouds in the ancestral land?
Or perhaps, even more so?
The two strange Immortal Emperors dared not think any further at this moment, fearing that they might actually foresee that scene.

But by this moment, Xu He had already come to his senses.

The feeling of refreshment he had just experienced gave him a sense of breakthrough.
