While in Battle Through the Heavens, one can pre-appoint oneself as an emperor.

Chapter 435 The Hills of the Northern Wilderness

In the following time, Qin Tian accepted the order and set off to travel around the Great Thousand World. He had been in charge of posting Great Thousand Posts before, so he was quite skilled at this kind of work and there was nothing to worry about.

Meanwhile, Chen Xiao directly used the False World and True World to bring back the group of juniors who had left the Great Thousand World to study abroad.

In the blink of an eye, the main hall was filled with a large group of beautiful women.

Chen Xiao, Chen Lin, and Chen Chen stood out conspicuously among them.

The three brothers' memories were sealed, and they suddenly arrived in a completely new world. Their faces were full of vigilance as they constantly looked around, especially at the figure sitting in the main seat.

Chen Xiao chuckled, raised his hand and waved it, breaking all the seals in their minds. A flood of memories rushed into their minds, causing the three brothers to hiss softly.

Instead of paying attention to them, Chen Xiao turned his gaze to Chen Xi and the other women, who seemed to be there for sightseeing.

"Qingyue, you four sisters should go and pay your respects to your mother first."

"Qingtan, Lin Jing, you don't need to rush back. I have already informed Lin Dong that he can stay in Zixiao Palace for a few more days. It won't be long before it gets very lively here."

The women responded in unison, bowed again, and then went off happily, chattering away.

"Luo Li, please wait a moment. I have something to tell you. We'll leave together with Chen'er later," Chen Xiao said to Luo Li, who seemed a little confused.

"Yes, Uncle Chen." The latter nodded in agreement and obediently stood aside, but his gaze toward Chen Chen carried a hint of hostility.

The three Chen brothers had now fully regained their memories.

Chen Xiao and Chen Lin swayed and a copy of themselves appeared beside them, like a clone.

However, their main bodies and their clones exude two completely different and powerful auras.

One type is rooted in the same origin as the world, while the other is out of place in the world and seems to be subtly rejected by it.

Chen Chen is somewhat special; he has two clones, three Chen Chens, and three different auras. The only thing they have in common is that each one is incredibly powerful.

Seeing this scene, Chen Xiao and Chen Lin both had a hint of envy on their faces.

When they were preparing to leave, Chen Xiao taught them a modified version of the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones Divine Power. Unfortunately, time was limited. They started cultivating it a few years earlier than Chen Chen, but they only managed to cultivate a clone.

In contrast, Chen Chen seemed to have an innate talent in this area, making rapid progress. In just a few years, he cultivated two clones, enabling him to travel through the other two worlds in the Chaos.

Of course, while they might feel envious, they wouldn't have any other thoughts about it.

Anyway, once they cultivate a third clone, their father can still let them experience that world they've never been to before.

"Alright, don't dwell on it yet, I'll take care of it for you later."

Upon hearing Chen Xiao speak, the three brothers finally became serious.

(Please remember 1219.m.k.com for the fastest chapter updates.)

Now that their memories have returned, they naturally know what time it is.

"There are less than three years left until the final sealing of the evil god of that day. This time, it will be a decisive battle between the Great Thousand World and the extraterrestrial evil race. I won't set any hard requirements for you. Just don't embarrass your mother."

"Xiao'er, Lin'er, you two will stay in Zixiao Palace from now on. Chen'er, you can finish what you haven't finished before in these three years," Chen Xiao said, looking at his three sons.

Chen Xiao and Chen Lin had previously come to Daqian to train, and being older and more resilient, they hadn't changed much in other aspects besides their strength after leaving Daqian and returning.

Chen Chen, however, was completely different from when he left. All his impetuousness had been washed away, and he had become calm yet still sharp, which pleased Chen Xiao greatly.

The three brothers nodded in agreement, then stepped aside and looked at Luo Li on the other side.

Noticing Luo Li's expression, Chen Chen couldn't help but smile awkwardly, his eyes darting away.

Over the years, although he didn't flirt with other women, he would occasionally make some flirtatious remarks, and every time, he would get beaten up by Luo Li.

Chen Chen, a native whose strength was sealed, was no match for Luo Li, an extraterrestrial demon whose strength was not sealed.

At that time, Chen Chen felt confused and secretly tried many underhanded tricks to kill Luo Li. Although they all ended in failure, he still felt a little guilty when he thought about it now.

"Luo Li, you will definitely gain something from your trip to the Tai Ling Ancient Clan. Three years from now, the Great Thousand World will undergo a major reshuffle. The stronger you are, the greater the benefit to the Luo Shen Clan."

In the original timeline, Luo Li trained in the Ancient Sacred Abyss and successfully obtained one of the thirty-six peerless divine abilities, the Tai Ling Tong Tian Guang. Finding this divine ability was the only hard requirement for the Tai Ling Ancient Clan's Holy Maiden competition.

Because of Chen Xiao's arrangements, Luo Li has not yet received this opportunity, which is why Chen Xiao sent her to the Tai Ling Ancient Clan.

Perhaps, as she walks along, she will by chance obtain the light of the Supreme Heaven?

Anyway, fate is unpredictable; everything depends on destiny.

Luo Li nodded slightly, without the slightest doubt.

The Northern Wilderness Hills are located in the central part of the vast world.

In those ancient times, there once existed a vast and boundless supercontinent called the Northern Wilderness Continent.

However, the Northern Wilderness Continent in ancient times was not only not barren, but could be considered one of the most prosperous and powerful regions in the world.

However, at that time, the extraterrestrial evil race invaded the Great Thousand World, and the Great Thousand World suffered repeated defeats. At the critical moment, the Immortal Emperor stepped forward and formed the Great Thousand Alliance with countless beings, forces, and races of the Great Thousand World, forming the Great Thousand Palace to jointly resist the extraterrestrial evil race. Only then did the trend of defeat gradually come to an end.

Later, the extraterrestrial evil race fought a decisive battle with the Great Thousand Worlds. The Immortal Emperor and the Heavenly Evil God fought on the Northern Wilderness Continent. In that battle, this super continent was shattered, and the remaining area became the present-day Northern Wilderness Hills.

The great battle ended with the sealing of the Heavenly Evil God, and the Northern Wilderness Hill was sealed off by the direct descendants of the Immortal Emperor, the "Tomb Keepers," prohibiting all outsiders from approaching.

Of course, even the most powerful beings wouldn't dare to venture into such a dangerous place, so no one would want to come here.

Only when the once-in-a-millennium "Great Thousand Covenant" arrives will the former Great Thousand Palace issue the Great Thousand Invitation, inviting the many Heavenly Sovereigns of the Great Thousand World to gather at the Northern Wilderness Hill and jointly activate the seal left by the Immortal Emperor to erase the life imprint of the Heavenly Evil God.

"Is this the Northern Wilderness Hill?"

.

Two streaks of light tore through the spatial turbulence and broke through layers of gale-force clouds, revealing a shattered continent in sight.

That continent was ravaged and dark red, and even from a great distance, a terrifying and tragic aura could be faintly felt rising from it.

The two streaks of light withdrew their spiritual light, revealing their figures. They were none other than Chen Chen and Luo Li, who had come from the Tai Ling Ancient Clan and the Maha Ancient Clan.

At this moment, Chen Chen was gazing at the ruined continent with a hint of curiosity, clearly quite interested in this legendary battleground between the Immortal Emperor and the Heavenly Evil God.

Luo Li, standing to the side, nodded solemnly, her gaze towards the Northern Wilderness Hill filled with apprehension. She could vaguely sense that some extremely terrifying aura remained on this shattered continent.

Even with her current strength, she felt a tremor in her heart and an indescribable sense of terrifying pressure from that aura.

"It's a terrible place. It's hard to imagine how brutal that battle must have been. Fortunately, with Uncle Chen here, the evil god won't be able to cause any trouble that day."

Chen Chen nodded slightly. Regardless of whether others acknowledged it or not, the Great Thousand World was now less wary of the extraterrestrial evil races because of his father.

After all, his father had already proven that he had at least reached the level of an Immortal Emperor when he made a move against the Moci Ancient Clan last time!

Therefore, even when facing the Heavenly Evil God, all living beings would think that, in the worst-case scenario, Chen Xiao could seal the Heavenly Evil God again!

As the two were talking, their expressions suddenly changed, and they looked up into the distance. There, the fierce gale was torn apart, and several figures of light streaked out, each radiating powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, clearly indicating the strength of a Heavenly Sovereign.

Clearly, as the time drew near, top experts from all corners of the vast world were rushing here.

Even though Qin Tian had relayed Chen Xiao's original words, no one would really cower in fear. After all, those who could cultivate to such a level were not fools. They could all foresee that after this decisive battle, the landscape of the Great Thousand World would undergo earth-shattering changes.

What role one can play in the world at that time will likely be related to how much effort one puts into this decisive battle!

Therefore, this is a great opportunity to compete, and we must seize it!

The several Heavenly Sovereigns in the distance naturally noticed Chen Chen and Luo Li. After a quick glance, a look of awe appeared on their faces. They bowed respectfully from afar before transforming into streaks of light and descending towards the Northern Wilderness Hill.

Chen Chen was already used to this kind of scene. He returned the greeting from afar before flying away with Luo Li.

Arriving high above the Northern Wilderness Hills, the two looked down and were both slightly taken aback.

On the desolate land, there stood solitary graves, each a mountain-shaped tomb, stretching endlessly to the horizon!

"These are all powerful figures who perished in that ancient war—" Luo Li said solemnly.

Chen Chen also looked solemn, with respect rising in his eyes.

Those who could be buried here must have been not unknown people in life. The sheer number of tombs shows the terrible price the world paid in that ancient war.

These powerful individuals sacrificed their lives to protect the world, and they deserve the respect of their descendants.

call out!call out!

Just as Chen Chen was sighing, two gray lights suddenly shot out from a distance and appeared in front of them a few breaths later, revealing their figures as two middle-aged men dressed in gray robes.

These two individuals were rather thin and expressionless, but judging from the faint fluctuations of spiritual energy emanating from their bodies, they were also at the level of a Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign.

"Greetings, Young Palace Master Chen Chen, and Saintess Luo Li." The two gray-robed men bowed stiffly to the two, their voices hoarse.

Chen Chen's gaze swept over their chests, where mountain tombs were embroidered, appearing lonely and desolate. His eyes immediately flickered, and he realized their identities.

These two are the guardians of the tombs in this northern wilderness hill!

Legend has it that these tomb guardians are direct descendants of the Immortal Emperor. After the Immortal Emperor's fall, they remained in the Northern Wilderness Hills to guard the seal.

In terms of strength and foundation, even the five ancient clans are probably no match for these tomb guardians.

However, they strictly adhered to the rules and never stepped out of the Northern Wilderness Hills!

Of course, their staying in the Northern Wilderness Hills doesn't mean they're out of touch with the world. The tomb keepers are perfectly aware of major events such as Chen Xiao's existence, the founding of the Zixiao Palace, and even Luo Li becoming the Holy Maiden of the Tailing Ancient Clan in the past two years.

Facing the two, Chen Chen politely returned their greetings with clasped hands.

"Please come with us."

The two tomb keepers remained indifferent, only showing a strange fluctuation when their gaze swept over Chen Chen, as if there were some unusual aspects to Chen Chen besides his identity.

However, they didn't say anything more and turned to head into the depths of the Northern Wilderness Hills.

Chen Chen and Luo Li followed immediately.

The layers of tombs swept past their feet. After about ten minutes, the two tomb keepers slowed down and then descended.

Chen Chen looked down from the light and saw a huge black plaza appear on the ground.

On the black plaza stood rows of enormous black pillars, their surfaces weathered and worn. But as he drew closer, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Because, at this moment, he realized that they were not black pillars, but huge bronze coffins standing upright!

These bronze coffins, like enormous nails, were firmly nailed to the black square, and a strange fluctuation seemed to emanate from them.

Chen Chen's gaze swept over the bronze coffins, their locations appearing in his mind, interconnected with each other. Then, an array diagram radiating boundless terrifying power slowly appeared in his mind.

He took a deep breath and finally understood.

It turns out that these bronze coffins were the sealing array left behind by the Immortal Emperor!

So it is said that—

That day, the evil god must have been sealed deep within this black plaza beneath his feet!

Without lingering, the two gray-robed tomb guardians who had led the way landed and descended towards a hilltop beside the black plaza. At the top of the hill stood a colossal black palace, like a primordial beast.

Chen Chen and his companion landed in front of the giant hall. As soon as they looked up, they saw three large characters that were as powerful as a coiled dragon.

Zixiao Palace!

Aside from Chen Chen and his companion, there were also some Heavenly Sovereign experts around looking up at the palace. At their level of strength, they could vaguely sense the danger emanating from it.

The feeling was as if the palace itself were alive!

"This Zixiao Palace is a peerless sacred artifact, the original treasure of the Great Thousand Palace. It can roam the void, and in terms of power, it ranks among the top ten in the Great Thousand World. It is not inferior to the ancestral pagoda of the Futu Ancient Clan or the Maha Yin-Yang Bottle of the Maha Ancient Clan. Later, Qin Tian and others from the Great Thousand Palace joined the Zixiao Palace, and the Great Thousand Palace was also brought over and slightly modified by my father," Chen Chen explained to Luo Li beside him.

Although Luo Li had already met Chen Xiao, Qing Yanjing, Cai Lin, Xun'er, and others, and had gained their approval, she still hadn't touched upon many of the secrets of Zixiao Palace.

Luo Li nodded slightly, keeping it in mind. She exchanged a glance with Chen Chen and then stepped inside.
