I bear witness to immortality in the human world.

Somewhere in the void.

Yan Wang and Wu Ming walked side by side for an unknown distance before slowing their pace. Yan Wang looked around and nodded slightly, saying:

"Let's do it here."

As soon as he finished speaking, he casually waved his hand.

In an instant, the void rippled open, the turbulent currents receded, and a power that appeared out of nowhere suddenly emerged. It was a power completely different from the laws of nature, the essence and root of the world's existence, and the primordial power that only the Immortal King Realm could master!
As soon as the power of origin emerged, it displayed a power that the power of laws could not match: the creation of things from the void.

A colossal peak filled with molten lava rose from the ground, growing and spreading in the void, forcefully splitting open this emptiness. With another wave of the Flame King's hand, the burning lava peak instantly cooled down, all the flames disappeared, and then at the summit, a pavilion rose from the ground, and a simple square table quietly materialized.

"please."

Yan Wang smiled and invited Wu Ming.

Wu Ming returned the greeting with a cupped hand, and then walked together with the Flame King toward the mountain peak.

His gaze swept over the mountain that had sprung from nothing, and countless thoughts raced through his mind. Although he had inherited the legacy of the Thunder Emperor and the Black Emperor, knew the path from the initial realm to the king realm, and had some understanding of the power of origin, this scene before him was the first time he had witnessed the application of a kind of power of origin.

This is indeed a great power that transcends the laws of nature. The power of the laws is far from being able to contend with it. If an Immortal in the initial stage wants to contend with such power, the only way is to wield a supreme treasure. After all, the essence of a supreme treasure contains a trace of the power of an emperor. Even if an Immortal in the initial stage cannot bring it to its full potential, it can still use its status to resist King-level Immortals to a certain extent.

In addition,

Wu Ming possesses more than one supreme treasure. Both the Thunder Eye and the Demon Subduing Diagram belong entirely to him and are under his complete control due to the arrangements of the Thunder Emperor and the Black Emperor. This is the source of his confidence in facing the King Realm Immortals. Even if he cannot defeat them, he can still protect himself. Moreover, the Flame King in front of him does not seem to have much hostility.

After Yan Wang and Wu Ming took their seats on the mountaintop, Yan Wang smiled and waved his hand, conjuring a pot of wine. The wine was filled with a rich, fiery aura, and a strange fragrance permeated the surrounding area.

"These are some rare treasures I obtained from the depths of the void. They were refined and brewed using the essence of fire to create Heavenly Fire Wine. Apart from the Wind King forcibly taking a jar from me, no one else has tasted it. Fellow Daoist, please have a taste."

King Yan spoke with a smile.

While pondering Yan Wang's intentions, Wu Ming picked up the teacup. The wine in the teacup was golden-red, like lava, and it did indeed emit heat, but the heat was not high, and it would have no effect on an immortal being.

After drinking the wine, Wu Ming immediately felt a heat spreading from his abdomen, and a wisp of scorching energy instantly permeated his entire body. His body, after transforming into an immortal form, became slightly stronger after being enveloped by this scorching energy.

"Good wine."

As he experienced the effects of the wine, Wu Ming's eyes lit up slightly.

The Immortal King's move was indeed extraordinary; the effect of this cup of wine was probably equivalent to a hundred years of his cultivation.

He has now achieved immortality, but only at the initial stage. His immortal power has not yet been cultivated to its peak. When he reaches the peak of the initial stage, he should be at least two or three times stronger than he is now. However, all of this still requires time to accumulate.

"Hahaha, I have collected this wine for hundreds of thousands of years and only managed to brew six jars. Fellow Daoist, you have just entered the Immortal Realm. Drinking this wine will surely bring you many benefits. However, the first cup of this wine is the most effective. After drinking one jar, that will be about the limit. It should save you thousands of years of hard work before the 'calamity' arrives."

Upon hearing this, King Yan immediately smiled and spoke.

Upon hearing this, Wu Ming finally stopped moving.

Calamity.

The calamity that led to the fall of the ancient emperors is about to strike again. He only knew this from the projections left behind by ancient emperors like the Black Emperor and the Thunder Emperor. Ordinary immortals probably wouldn't know this, but for an ancient immortal king like the Flame King, some of whom have lived since ancient times, it's not surprising that they know about the calamity. However, the Flame King's last few words, when put together, surprised Wu Ming. It seemed that the Flame King had prepared this 'Heavenly Fire Wine' specifically for him to aid his cultivation. Could the Flame King also be part of the Black Emperor's scheme?

Seemingly sensing Wu Ming's confusion, Yan Wang smiled and no longer concealed anything, saying directly:
“In ancient times, I received guidance from His Majesty the Black Emperor.”

"I see."

Wu Ming was no longer surprised and looked at Yan Wang, saying, "So, fellow Daoist already knows all of the Emperor's arrangements?"

Yan Wang shook his head and said, "I am unaware of the Emperor's arrangements. I only know that the Emperor once said that when the calamity is approaching, if someone obtains his inheritance and attains immortality, then that person will be the key to this world's survival through the calamity."

At this point, Yan Wang was also carefully observing Wu Ming.

He didn't know what the Black Emperor's plan was, but he had no doubt about the Black Emperor's arrangements, because having experienced the ancient calamity, he knew how terrible the invasion and calamity of the Asura Demon Realm was, even the Emperor would perish!
Millions of years have passed since ancient times. If a new emperor were to be born in the world, he might consider it. However, no new emperor has been born in the world for millions of years. It is impossible for these immortal kings to stop the cataclysmic calamity of the Asura Demon Realm. Therefore, he can only place his hopes on the arrangements of the ancient emperors.

The moment the Black Emperor Palace appeared, he was jolted awake from his seclusion and began to observe it in secret.

After seeing Wu Ming walk out of the Black Emperor Palace and attain immortality, he knew that Wu Ming was arranged by the Black Emperor. Although he did not know how Wu Ming would resist the calamity when he had just entered immortality and the calamity was approaching, he had no other choice but to trust the Black Emperor and do his best to help Wu Ming.

After listening to Yan Wang's words, Wu Ming remained silent for a moment before saying:
"What about the other Immortal Kings? Do they also know about this?"

"They probably don't know everything, but it's only a matter of time."

Yan Wang shook his head and said, "I am not the only one who knows about the Emperor's arrangements. Feng Wang also knows about this matter. Now that the calamity is approaching, it is of great importance. The others will find out sooner or later. With our current strength, we cannot withstand the calamity. Therefore, no matter what arrangements the Emperor makes, we can only continue on our way."

Wu Ming cast his gaze into the depths of the void, as if he could see the world, the Asura Demon Realm on the other side of the world, and countless demons rubbing their hands together, already preparing to invade this realm.

He then averted his gaze and looked at the Flame King before him.

He had thought that after entering the Immortal realm, he would need to rely on the Eye of Thunder and the Demon-Subduing Diagram to contend with these Immortal Kings and have the power to protect himself in front of them, but now it seems that he doesn't need to.

The Flame King and the Wind King had both received guidance from the Black Emperor and were considered his own people. As for the other Immortal Kings... whatever their intentions, they would not act recklessly as the cataclysmic calamity approached.

For him, this is also a good thing.

This means that during this final period, he can cultivate peacefully and even receive some assistance from many immortal kings such as the Flame King and the Wind King. At the very least, he can exchange ideas and discuss the Dao with them to elevate himself.

"So, as the one destined for this calamity, you should already know about the Emperor's arrangements?"

Yan Wang looked at Wu Ming with expectant eyes.

Compared to Wu Ming himself, he placed more hope in the arrangements and backup plans left behind by those ancient emperors. After all, although Wu Ming's current strength is not weak, and with the possession of supreme treasures, he can even protect himself against these immortal kings, this strength alone is far from enough to stop the cataclysmic disaster.

"We do not yet know the full picture, but with the world-ending catastrophe imminent, I will do everything in my power."

Wu Ming responded to Yan Wang.

Yan Wang looked at Wu Ming and, seeing Wu Ming's calm expression and composed tone, nodded slightly. He then said with a touch of emotion, "In that case... this calamity will depend on you, fellow Daoist. If you have any needs, please feel free to ask, and I will do my best to assist you."
