Infinite transcendence began with Covering the Sky.

Chapter 347 Azure Sea Overwhelms the Galaxy

In the dark sky, stars are broken and fragmented, with shattered pieces of the underworld continent floating among them, and rotting ancient corpses everywhere.

The gatehouse, shattered by a single blow, still retains a certain degree of integrity, which would have been impossible had it not been erected by the Supreme Being.

The powerful palm print remains on the gate tower, shattering the dark plaque in two. Now, only one character remains, exuding an undying imperial might.

"It seems that the gates of the underworld were destroyed in the past, and the cultivators left and abandoned this place," Yan Ruyu said softly.

She was also shocked at this moment. Even though she was far away, she could feel the traces left behind and realize who had made the move.

Among the few imperial weapons in the Eastern Wilderness, the Western Emperor Tower is undoubtedly one of the rarest to appear, but it has in fact displayed its supreme imperial might when it intimidated all the ancient races.

At this moment, Yan Ruyu discovered an aura that shared the same origin as the Western Emperor Tower, and was shocked to realize that the person who had shattered the gates of the Underworld was the Empress who had attained enlightenment in the ancient era.

There is no doubt that this has never been recorded in the ancient history of the Eastern Wilderness. Even the Yaochi Holy Land may not know about it, and even if there are speculations, they may not dare to be certain.

"It is indeed the Western Emperor."

Qi Zhe stood at the bow of the ship, staring at the huge palm print on the gate tower in the distance. He was suddenly filled with inexplicable emotion and thought about the origin of Wushi.

The stone horse, standing behind the two, transformed into a small foal. Hearing this, it asked in confusion, "The Western Emperor has taken drastic measures against the Underworld. Something must have happened!"

The underworld is a sacred place in the heavens and earth that cannot be touched at will. It has been the subject of endless legends since ancient times and is said to be the final resting place of all spirits.

It is known that the Heavenly Court has been gone for countless ages, but the Underworld has existed for a long time. Over the years, it has secretly visited various ancient stars, and no one knows how terrifying it is.

Later generations all said that there was a King of the Underworld in the netherworld, who was known to be able to rival the Emperor. Even the descendants of the Heavenly Court said that the King of the Underworld was only one or two moves behind the Emperor.

Such terrifying figures lurk in the underworld, and even the current emperor might not dare to cause them trouble, because a major battle would surely cause the heavens and the earth to collapse.

However, the Western Emperor fought a great battle right up to the gates of the underworld, suggesting that there must have been a deep secret behind that battle, which explains why Shi Ma was puzzled.

Qi Zhe remained silent upon hearing this, then said, "The Queen Mother of the West had a poignant love story. Her husband was originally a Great Accomplished Holy Body, and they were born together in the same lifetime."

"It's a pity that the man was afflicted with a curse from the underworld in his prime, and he was unable to resist the strangeness. Even the Western Emperor, as the Great Emperor, was powerless to help him and could only personally help him to be freed."

"At that time, the two had a son. Before his death, the holy body said that if the child could not become an immortal, he would establish a heavenly court again, and high hopes were placed on him."

"After the great battle between the Western Queen Mother and the Underworld, she returned to the Eastern Wilderness and established the Yaochi Holy Land, sealing that child and causing him to be born only after many tens of thousands of years."

Qi Zhe's voice was deep, causing Yan Ruyu, who had been lost in thought, to stir slightly. She couldn't help but whisper, "It's the Great Emperor Wushi!"

The origin of the Great Emperor Wushi is actually a mystery in the Eastern Wilderness. The Yaochi Holy Land has kept it a secret from beginning to end, and even if people have guesses, it is difficult to verify.

However, once the constitutions of the Western Emperor and his wife are known, the outcome of the Great Emperor Wushi as the only Holy Body Dao Embryo in ancient history is beyond doubt.

Qi Zhe nodded upon hearing this and said, "After Emperor Wushi attained enlightenment, he once besieged the underworld because of his parents, causing him to live in seclusion for tens of thousands of years."

"I imagine there are traces of him here, and looking back, perhaps I see those tragic scenes, and he left behind a vow to keep his parents alive."

Yan Ruyu remained silent upon hearing this. When the truth of ancient events buried in history is revealed, the results are often astonishing.

As the son of the Western Emperor, the Great Emperor Wushi was not hindered by the laws of the Dao and broke the legend that there could not be two emperors in one family many years ago.

Despite his strong will and high hopes placed on him by his father, he only wanted to resurrect his parents and ultimately did not establish a Heavenly Court again, embarking on the path to immortality alone.

"How difficult it is to keep one's parents alive. I think if he had followed his father's words, he might have already become the true Heavenly Emperor," Yan Ruyu sighed at this moment. "The Heavenly Court has been scattered many times throughout the ages. Becoming an immortal is still more realistic." Qi Zhe shook his head repeatedly upon hearing this, knowing that it was not that the Heavenly Court was evil, but that the karma was too heavy.

Yan Ruyu's ancestor, the Azure Emperor, was also an extraordinary man. Thirty thousand years ago, he wanted to establish a Heavenly Court for the Demon Race, but unfortunately, he later inexplicably gave up.

The name "Heavenly Court" seems to be cursed. Many powerful figures throughout history have tried to establish it, but most of them failed halfway through and never even got close to it.

The two powerful figures, Emperor and Netherworld Lord, joined forces to establish the Heavenly Court with great supernatural powers. After a brief period of glory, it eventually collapsed.

The Immortal Emperor attempted to establish a heavenly court in the early ancient times, but unfortunately he had to give up later, leaving behind only a legend of an ominous heavenly court.

Later generations of powerful figures also tried to emulate this, but most failed. Those who did not become emperors and establish a Heavenly Court were destined to collapse, but those who did become emperors were all said to be doomed.

All this is because the position of the Heavenly Emperor is not one that can be easily attained. It is the position of the cause and effect of all living beings, and to sit on it means to carry the burden of all living beings.

They can hold on a little in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, but once it comes to the Immortal Path, even emperors will collapse, and even quasi-Immortal Emperors and those who claim to be emperors will be dragged into the burial pit.

At this moment, Qi Zhe didn't dare to say anything more. With a flash of his eyes, he steered the warship around the ruins and headed towards the dark sky in the distance.

"laugh!"

Just as Qi Zhe was taking action, a figure suddenly appeared out of thin air beneath the distant gate tower, with thousands of chaotic energies showering down from its head, and a large bell swaying.

He seemed to be a manifestation of the past, standing in front of the gatehouse, sighing incessantly, as if recalling painful memories, so much so that he was reluctant to leave for a long time.

"What the hell!" Shi Ma exclaimed softly as he looked back, startled. Even Qi Zhe was taken aback and couldn't help but frown and remain silent.

The other party's features were so obvious that even Qi Zhe, who had never seen him before, could guess who he was and knew that it was a surviving image of the Great Emperor Wushi from countless ages ago.

“No wonder the underworld has never returned; there is an indelible mark left by the Great Emperor Wushi here,” Yan Ruyu said softly.

But the next moment the other party disappeared, vanishing like a bubble. There was no trace of the emperor in front of the gate tower, only the dark sky remained.

"Clang! Clang!"

At that moment, a sound rang out from the gate tower, and the half-destroyed underworld plaque slowly fell, plummeting into the depths of the dark universe.

Qi Zhe was taken aback when he saw this, and then used the "Soldier" secret technique to retrieve it. As soon as he touched it, he felt the icy coldness, which almost froze his soul.

"Hiss! The principles within have long been obliterated, but this palm print still retains divine power, which even a quasi-emperor would find difficult to control!"

Qi Zhe was shivering from the cold and could only summon the Imperial Cauldron to put it away. He looked thoughtfully at the plaque floating inside the Imperial Cauldron.

This thing must have been left behind by the Underworld Lord. Although its Dao principles have been erased, the palm print on it was left by the Western Emperor in anger.

"It's still somewhat useful." Without hesitation, Qi Zhe put away the plaque and left the ruins, tearing through the void and heading into the distance.

According to Yan Ruyu, this place should not be far from that lotus pond. After crossing the ruins, there is a sacred land where a large star rises and falls.

"Swoosh!" When Qi Zhe tore through the void once again, he saw a vast blue sea that covered the Milky Way, with endless green lotuses taking root in it.

At this moment, the sun, moon, and stars are all floating in the sea, and the blue lotus flowers are like the Jianmu tree that blocks out the sun. At the center, a huge star is scattering thousands of celestial rays.

"We've arrived!" Yan Ruyu exclaimed excitedly upon seeing this.
