I picked up the scattered attributes

Indeed, on his way here, he had already witnessed the frequent chaos in the world.

In some remote areas, gods and demons have already declared themselves kings, displaying an attitude of being far removed from the emperor's reach.

There are also star regions ruled by Emperor-level beings. Although they are nominally still part of the God Kingdom, the beings living in those star regions do not consider themselves citizens of the God Kingdom at all. In fact, they even respect the Emperor-level being as His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor!

For an Emperor-level being, this is easy.

Although these were all just underhanded maneuvers, they did indeed prove that as His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor's lifespan was coming to an end, more and more people were developing different ideas.

The fact that two Emperor-level beings challenged the Heavenly Emperor one after another undoubtedly shows that in their hearts, the Heavenly Emperor is no longer as invincible as before!

"If I could live again, I am confident that I could wipe out all those evil spirits and restore a bright and clear world to the world."

The old man exhaled, then shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, time waits for no one."

Feng Xia could tell that he really didn't care much about his own life or death.

For a moment, he didn't know how to start the conversation.

Should we tell this peerless Heavenly Emperor that in the future, a great war will break out, the world will be turbulent and unpredictable, the stars will weep blood, the Heavenly Pattern Divine Kingdom will come to a complete end, and after that, there will be a darkness that lasts for fifty million years?

He suddenly felt that it would be too cruel to say these things out loud.

"I don't care about ascending to immortality, much less about so-called eternal life."

Just then, the old man continued, "Even Emperors can only live for two million years. This may be cruel for a Great Emperor, but it may be a good thing for all living beings. Otherwise, if the older the being, the stronger they are... then what hope would future generations have to rise to prominence?"

Feng Xia fell silent once again.

When he first started out, he had concerns about the eternal lifespan of the innate deities.

Emperor-level power, eternal lifespan...

If such a group of beings were to seize control of the orthodoxy of heaven and earth, it would only bring endless darkness and despair to future generations!

"With me here, those innate gods and demons dare not make any moves, and the world will be at peace for two million years."

"Therefore, the number of strong individuals in this era surpasses that of any previous time, but similarly, with so many emperors living in the same era... not one of them can surpass me!"

"If I weren't on my deathbed, they wouldn't even have had the courage to challenge me!"

His words carried a strong sense of disappointment and frustration.

Feng Xia fell silent again.

He had little interaction with this Heavenly Emperor; even in the past two million years, they had only met occasionally.

But he could sense that the other party had truly given and considered too much for this universe, for all living beings and races!

“However, Mr. Holy Spirit.”

Suddenly, the aged Heavenly Emperor paused, his gaze falling on Feng Xia's face, a hint of amusement in his eyes, and a touch of inquiry: "Are you from the future?"

Feng Xia's pupils contracted.

He had never mentioned his background, but the other party had revealed it to him without his knowledge.

Before he could answer, the aged Heavenly Emperor continued, "Back then, the Nether Emperor mentioned you to me, and that's how I learned of your existence. Back then, the Imperial Advisor observed the stars and saw that the divine kingdom's fortune was dim, with hidden crises lurking, and it could collapse at any moment."

"Although I had been emperor for more than 200,000 years at that time, and my country was prosperous and my divine way was flourishing, in fact, the divine kingdom was still in a precarious state. After all, there were too many remnants of the ancient times, and the divine kingdom at that time was far from being able to eradicate them."

"However, with the arrival of the Nether Emperor, fortune suddenly soared, and destiny changed course... Sir, don't you think that's amazing?"

"So that's where it's from..." Feng Xia suddenly realized.

The concept of destiny is indeed ethereal and unpredictable, yet it also has a real existence.

His advice to Emperor You was actually unintentional.

However, with the addition of the Nether Emperor, the fear of the divine kingdom among many innate gods and demons has increased by more than one or two levels.

The innate gods and demons dared not make any moves, and the divine kingdom suddenly had an opportunity to develop.

In the hundred thousand years that followed, one emperor-level being after another was born, truly solidifying the Heavenly Pattern Divine Kingdom's reputation as a divine kingdom and the sole ruler of all the heavens and myriad realms!

According to popular belief, Emperor You saw the potential of the Heavenly Pattern Divine Kingdom, which is why he chose to invest and join in advance.

But in the eyes of this Heavenly Emperor, things were far from simple.

Feng Xia's advice, though seemingly unintentional, was in fact like an invisible hand that shifted the trajectory of fate!

"Back then, Emperor You demonstrated a divine power to me. Only today have I begun to understand part of its true meaning. It is a divine power that does not belong to this era; it is an unparalleled divine power from the future!"

……

Chapter 1244

"Your failure to become an immortal is perhaps the greatest loss in this world."

After a long silence, Feng Xia said, word by word, "If you become an immortal, you will be invincible under heaven, suppressing the world, and no one will dare to claim supremacy!"

Just as he had predicted.

This Heavenly Emperor is exceptionally handsome and talented. If he hadn't been delayed, he might have qualified to challenge the Immortal Realm a million years earlier.

"But if I were to focus solely on cultivating to become an immortal, perhaps this world would cease to exist."

His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor's gaze was bright and unwavering: "Holy Spirit, you may not know this, but the cultivation system created by my master has already spread throughout the world. Some exceptionally talented young people have used it to cultivate and become gods, mastering power no less than that of gods and demons! All of this has already made some innate gods and demons feel the crisis."

Not all innate gods and demons are as powerful as the Nether Emperor or the Ancestral Dragon.

Some weaker innate gods and demons may only have the power of a celestial god or a god lord.

Then, the beings who cultivated themselves into gods had the power to threaten them!

There are also the descendants of the innate gods and demons, the God and Demon races. Although they are also beings born after birth, the God and Demon races have always been irreconcilable with other races. They have always been proud of their bloodline, and those with noble bloodlines are powerful!

The reason why all the races in the heavens are weak is because they are the lowest of beasts, with base blood flowing through their veins.

The emergence of the cultivation system broke the tradition of bloodline nobility.

Neither the gods nor the demons will tolerate this!

"At that time, if we cannot unite everyone to resist the slaughter by the innate gods and demons, even if I can cultivate to become an immortal, all the races in the heavens will be wiped out by the innate gods and demons, and in the end, all that will be left is devastation."

"Your master?"

Feng Xia keenly grasped this key word.

This peerless and elegant Heavenly Emperor actually had a master who was unknown to anyone!

“Mr. Holy Spirit, although my master created the cultivation system, giving all races the right to become stronger, he himself… only lived for thirty-six years.”

Feng Xia was taken aback.

Thirty-six years?

In the era when gods and demons ruled the world, countless wars caused most mortals to have short lifespans and die violent deaths.

However, due to the abundance of vital energy in the world, it is quite normal for ordinary people to live for two or three hundred years if they can die peacefully in their sleep.

Thirty-six years is certainly an early death!

Especially considering what His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor said, it was his master who... created the cultivation system that brings blessings to all generations!

How could someone like him die so young?

Only now did the old Heavenly Emperor's eyes dim: "Back then, all the races of the heavens were under the rule of gods and demons. Those who were lucky might have been slaves, while those who were unlucky could only become food. That was the golden age of gods and demons, but it was a dark age for all living beings... Then one day, flames suddenly descended from the sky, illuminating the darkness that had shrouded the world for billions of years!"

He waved his hand, and a magnificent scene unfolded in his field of vision.

"At that time, I was not yet born, and my teacher was still a boy."

"The flames were imprinted with the patterns of the Great Dao and echoed the cries of all living beings. This gave him a profound understanding, allowing him to create something from nothing... He created the Heavenly Patterns and established a cultivation system for beings born after death."

Feng Xia looked at the scene and suddenly his body trembled: "This is... that time!"

In that scene, all living beings and races were ragged and emaciated. Suddenly, flames illuminated the darkness, illuminating this incredibly dark era!

The flame of hope was thus sown.

However, Feng Xia saw that behind the starry sky, beyond the void, on the river of time, two figures were fighting a great battle!

That was his first direct confrontation with the Lord of the Gray Mist!

The battles at that time were extremely dangerous; if Feng Xia had been careless, he would have perished in the river of time.

That flame that ignites the darkness is his divine power, the wrath of all living beings!

On the earth, the vast majority of ancient people trembled, thinking that the gods and demons had become angry again, which was why such an amazing phenomenon had occurred, and they were afraid that the wrath would befall them.

But among those people was a thin boy with bright eyes, watching the flames falling from the sky.

As if sensing something, he suddenly sat cross-legged on the ground, and a strange Daoist aura emanated from his body.

After an unknown amount of time, a booming sound came from his body, and a divine wheel slowly rose up!

That divine wheel was similar to Feng Xia's divine wheel, displaying a dark gray color and a chaotic state.

Dao Yilun!

This was the first time Feng Xia had ever seen someone else activate the Dao Yi Divine Wheel!

"The human body possesses secret realms. Opening these realms reveals the divine wheel, allowing one to enter the path of cultivation!" The young man uttered a long chant, then laughed, "The foremost of all secret realms, governing all human body secret realms, is... the Dao One Secret Realm!"

His laughter was barely noticeable amidst the chaos.

No one knew that the cultivation system that would influence countless generations to come... would be created at this moment by such a young man!
