Chapter 449 The Creation of Heaven
The Boundary Sea is vast; even for a Celestial King, it would take a long time—tens of thousands of years—to walk from one side to the other.

All of this is because the Boundary Sea is not calm. In the past, in the boundless mist, all kinds of storms and waves were raging, and the deeper one went, the more dangerous it became.

Even a Celestial King might not be able to withstand the waves at the deepest part of the Boundary Sea and cross the sea to the other side, let alone a True Immortal.

Only a Quasi-Immortal Emperor can truly cross the sea to the other side, ignoring the waves and passing through the air in a short time.

But now, a pool of imperial blood has been spilled on the seabed of the Boundary Sea. In that dark abyss, the golden imperial blood is dazzling and exudes an eerie aura.

Gu Tuo knew that the owner of this pool of imperial blood was definitely an unparalleled being capable of crossing the Boundary Sea, but it had been killed and fell at the edge of the Boundary Sea.

"I can't imagine the chaos that would ensue if it came ashore!"

Gu Tuo gazed at the pool of golden blood, feeling a surge of relief. He knew that a great calamity had silently struck many years ago, but it had been averted by a peerless figure.

They couldn't detect it because that person was incredibly powerful, annihilating all living beings crossing the sea; only a few people in all the worlds could perceive it.

"But who annihilated such a powerful being? Was it a true Immortal Emperor?"

Gu Tuo's face showed a look of sudden realization. At this moment, he was somewhat excited, because he felt that the Heavenly Emperor of the past might have returned, otherwise no one could have done it.

At this moment, Qi Zhe remained silent on the dam. He still remembered the words of surprise spoken by Master Meng in the Kunlun Mountains, and couldn't help but feel that it was not Huang's work.

"Perhaps not. On that day, Master Meng sat in the darkness and exclaimed in surprise, suggesting that it wasn't that person who had returned, but someone else who had made the move."

Qi Zhe's words were tinged with sadness, which shocked Gu Tuo, who was standing not far from him. At that moment, Gu Tuo turned his head sharply and said in disbelief:

"There are still Celestial Emperors in this world?!"

He found it unbelievable, because the ancient books of the Immortal Realm recorded that only two people throughout the ages had achieved the title of Immortal Emperor.

The source of the past calamity was a true Immortal Emperor. Ancient records in the Immortal Realm state that an accident occurred after he broke through to the Immortal Emperor level, which became the source of the turmoil.

However, the opponent was killed by the Desolate Heaven Emperor back in the Chaotic Ancient Era. If the Desolate Heaven Emperor doesn't take action now, then who else can kill a Quasi-Immortal Emperor in the Boundary Sea?
Gu Tuo was puzzled. Even he found it unbelievable and couldn't imagine who had made the move. He felt that everything was not simple and involved a great deal.

Qi Zhe didn't say it directly. He only felt that the Celestial Emperor of the Heavens had made a move, but he didn't know exactly who it was, since he only knew of two people.

Then Qi Zhe spoke up: "Now that the Boundary Sea has dried up and there are no more winds and waves, it is no longer as dangerous as before. Perhaps we can set foot in it."

At this moment, Qi Zhe felt that the Boundary Sea was ready to be entered. The endless darkness and mist of the past had dissipated, and there were no world-destroying storms. It was just the right time to set foot there.

"Ok?"

Gu Tuo was taken aback at first, but then he realized that the Boundary Sea was no longer dangerous and had dried up, making it a good place to set foot.

He then nodded and said, "That's good too. We can really investigate further and perhaps find the answer."

After discussing for a while, the two prepared to set off. They dared not touch the pool of imperial blood in the distance, and chose to bypass it and head towards the depths of the Boundary Sea.

As soon as they stepped into the Boundary Sea, the two of them almost instantly sensed an extremely tragic aura, with various Immortal King auras surging within it.

"It was incredibly tragic; countless lives were lost there!"

At this moment, the two were extremely shocked. The mere aura emanating from the depths of the Boundary Sea had spread to this side, making them both feel a sense of danger.

"Where in the heavens are there so many Celestial Kings? They must have come from some strange place, sharing the same lineage as that pool of blood, and possibly having various connections with it!"

Qi Zhe whispered, knowing full well that there weren't many Immortal Kings in this realm; they had all perished long ago, and most of them definitely came from the supernatural. Gu Tuo's expression grew serious upon hearing this. He could imagine that if a Quasi-Immortal Emperor and many Immortal Kings were to descend upon the world, all the fragments of the Immortal Realm would be destroyed.

However, this did not stop the two from moving forward. Qi Zhe and Gu Tuo, under the pervasive aura of immortal kings, soared through the air towards the depths of the Boundary Sea, and several days passed in the blink of an eye.

The two of them moved extremely fast, traveling a great distance in the calm sea, but in terms of distance, it was less than one ten-thousandth of the distance traveled.

The Boundary Sea is too vast. Even without wind and waves, it would take a Celestial King tens of thousands of years to cross it. Even if the two of them spent millions of years, they would still find it difficult to reach the other side.

Even so, both of them discovered that a lot of Emperor's blood had been spilled on the seabed, the golden blood shimmering and scattered all over the place.

"It's unimaginable that the Quasi-Immortal Emperor was perhaps blasted apart, his blood splattering across the entire Boundary Sea, spreading from the edge all the way to the depths of the Boundary Sea!"

Gu Tuo found it unbelievable; the scattered bloodstains were somewhat shocking. That quasi-immortal emperor from an unknown place might have been blasted apart by a single blow in the sky above the boundary sea.

"True Immortal Emperor's methods—he could kill the opponent with a single thought!"

There were no broken corpses or bones, only pools of imperial blood scattered everywhere. Both of them felt that someone had made a domineering move in the past, and with a single strike from a distance, the Quasi-Immortal Emperor was shattered to pieces.

"It's so enchanting," Gu Tuo sighed softly, then his whole being was filled with fighting spirit. He longed for this realm and wanted to climb it.

Although Qi Zhe did not speak, he felt the same way and then silently continued forward in the sea, searching everywhere.

As time passed, the two ventured deep into the Boundary Sea for over a month, traversing a vast distance, yet still gained nothing.

As the second month passed, the two finally found a clue. They found a stone tablet in the Boundary Sea with a few brief instructions on it.

"Above the heavens."

The inscription on the stone tablet states that this great chaos was quelled by the heavens, simply because the person who erected the tablet had fought alongside the Desolate Emperor and intervened to quell the chaos out of consideration for their past relationship.

But now the heavens are in grave danger, about to be sacrificed, and have no more power to protect the heavens. This realm needs someone to step forward.

However, Heaven also bestowed one last gift upon all the heavens: the one who erected the monument said that if any celestial king from this realm came here, he could travel all the way to Heaven.

They will bestow a truly great fortune, creating a Heavenly Emperor position for all the heavens, which can propel the Immortal King's Dao Fruit to the Dao Ancestor realm.

If a Celestial King is willing to bear the consequences, this realm can be preserved temporarily, waiting for this grand ceremony to pass before a new era begins.

Qi Zhe was somewhat puzzled by the "Heavenly Emperor's Position." He knew about this matter; after the three Heavenly Emperors departed, someone went to the heavens to take away this fortune.

Gu Tuo was somewhat shocked. He finally understood who had quelled the war and was also astonished by the Heavenly Emperor's throne, unable to imagine what kind of destiny it was.

"Brother Gu, do you intend to take the throne?" Qi Zhe turned his head, stared at Gu Tuo, and asked, somewhat curious about Gu Tuo's thoughts.

"Only a Celestial King can go to the Heavenly Realm, which I do not have the ability to do now. However, if I have the opportunity, I would not mind striving for this fortune for future generations!"

Gu Tuo didn't care. As a genius of the Immortal Realm, his talent was unparalleled throughout history, and he didn't care much for the Heavenly Emperor position.

"If there is a throne for the Heavenly Emperor, then I will sit on it myself." Qi Zhe nodded upon hearing this, and at this moment he prepared to leave.

Seeing this stone tablet made him decide to stop walking; he knew he couldn't go to heaven and should return now.
