"call!"

A gentle breeze blew by, and fallen leaves fluttered everywhere. The first thing the four quasi-emperors saw when they entered the courtyard was the tree standing in the yard.

There was a deck chair under the tree, swaying gently in the breeze. The ground was covered with fallen leaves, but not a single leaf fell on the deck chair.

"Is this the place where the Great Emperor's lineage is passed down?"

The demon race's quasi-emperor frowned slightly and said.

"Just a tree, a dilapidated courtyard, and the Emperor would be here?"

"Could they have been tricked by those two humans?"

As he was about to climb down from the big tree, the Quasi-Emperor of the Star Clan stopped him, pointed behind him, and all four of them looked out of the courtyard.

Despite being separated by only a wall, they could no longer sense the saints and great saints who had followed them, and even the entire capital city seemed to have turned into a painting before them.

There's a strange sense of unreality about it.

"This is……"

The demon race's quasi-emperor trembled.

"We have entered a small world that is independent of the world, which is probably the place where that great emperor practiced his magic in his lifetime."

The Quasi-Emperor of the Star Clan said with a solemn expression.

"Nothing here should be touched lightly. This is the Great Emperor's dojo; every single artifact may conceal a great terror."

"Something feels off there."

He pointed to the deck chair under the big tree and frowned.

"Let some people in."

Then he spoke, and the other three quasi-emperors all nodded. Then dozens of saints and great saints walked into the courtyard with excitement.

"Everything in this yard belongs to you."

The four quasi-emperors spoke, and then watched as these Saint Realm experts excitedly ran off to various places in the courtyard.

A vampire saint took a liking to the ginseng fruit growing on the tree and reached out to pick it, but the branch moved slightly to avoid his reach.

He was slightly startled.

"This tree has developed sentience, but it is not strong."

The four quasi-emperors watched this scene and said something.

The tree possessed a spirit, but it only had the cultivation of a Saint, and was no match for this Blood Clan Great Saint.

The Great Sage of the Blood Clan also realized that the tree was not strong. His gaze sharpened, and he used his immense blood energy to create a giant hand that forcefully reached for the ginseng fruit.

Suddenly, a voice rang out.

"The banyan tree takes its form, the bodhi tree its name, yet it bears the ginseng fruit. It seems you have also found your own path."

The simple words made the vampire saint who stepped forward to pick the ginseng fruit freeze, and also made the four quasi-emperors' expressions change.

A shadowy figure stood with his back to them under the big tree; they could only see a white-clad figure, seemingly commenting on the fruit on the tree.

"It's just a memory."

Emperor Hongfu took a deep breath and said.

Although it's just a photo, this is the Emperor.

The next moment they saw the vampire saint disappear under the tree, and another fruit appeared on the treetop.

They were all horrified by what they saw.

The image has disappeared, or perhaps it never existed in the first place; it is merely a remnant of memory that remains here, yet it can easily obliterate a Great Sage.

"dragon!"

On the other side, several saints who had jumped into the pool exclaimed in surprise. When they looked again, they saw the pool water churning, and several golden figures appearing and disappearing.

"hold head high--"

A dragon's roar echoed in everyone's minds, and a terrifying being that only appeared in mythology came to mind for all of them.

Dragons!

"Another photo has appeared!"

Suddenly, a great sage pointed to the side of the pool, his expression trembling.

At the edge of the pool, another figure appeared, holding fish feed and slowly scattering it into the water.

"Everyone says that carp that leap over the Dragon Gate can ascend to become dragons. What about you?"

He said that he saw something in the pool, and a smile appeared on his face. Then the people in the pool disappeared without a trace.

There was some extra fish bait in the pond.

"Get away from that pool!"

One of the Great Sages exclaimed in horror, and a group of Sages and Great Sages quickly moved aside.

No one dared to make a move in the courtyard after that. They stood beside the four quasi-emperors, looking around with fear on their faces.

"Is this the Emperor's method?"

The quasi-emperor of the Burial Clan took a deep breath and said.

"A single image could probably kill us. I wonder how powerful he was in life, and which human emperor he was."

The group fell silent.

"Does the human race have an emperor who raises dragons?"

The words of the quasi-Emperor Hong Fu broke the silence, and everyone shook their heads.

"It is not recorded in historical records, perhaps there are some historical omissions, or perhaps this courtyard existed even earlier."

"In the era when mythical beasts such as dragons and phoenixes still existed."

"This is no ordinary human emperor; he is very likely an ancestral emperor of the human race."

They said that even the four quasi-emperors felt a strange sense of dread standing in this courtyard, and the ancestral emperor of the human race was such a terrifying existence.

Those are supreme beings comparable to dragons and phoenixes.

"We shouldn't touch anything in this courtyard. Let's go take a look at this pavilion instead."

"The Quasi-Emperor of the Star Clan spoke, then glanced at the still-living Saints and Great Saints, and slightly focused his mind."

"You can all come together, but remember, do not touch anything in the library. If you die, you deserve it."

The group of people took a deep breath as they looked at the library in front of them and went inside.

The library is not large; you can walk through one floor in just a few steps. They can clearly see the books on the shelves and their titles.

《大唐异闻录》

A sage stared at the books on the bookshelf before him, slightly lost in thought.

The Tang Dynasty—wasn't that a dynasty that emerged after the human race split into nine provinces? Could it be that there was a place called the Tang Dynasty even before the human race existed?

"Annotations on Body Refinement, a book for the Body Refinement Realm?"

Not far away, a great sage was also bewildered. After concentrating for a long time, he couldn't help but reach out and take out the book.

Everyone around him was watching this scene.

"Yes, I can take it!"

They were deeply shocked.

Indeed, there are nine paths to the Great Dao, but only one of them has emerged, and there is still a glimmer of hope.

Then everyone started picking up the books in front of them.

"Tiger Fist, this seems to be a cultivation method created by a Core Formation Realm cultivator. Is the Great Emperor also interested in these?"

"The Essentials of Tree Planting" is a book about everyday techniques.

"The Romance of the Seven Kingdoms, that's a novel, right?"

……

Everyone was stunned.

There are no imperial texts or scriptures here, only ordinary books that they wouldn't even glance at if thrown in a garbage dump.

"Let's take another look up."

A group of people went up again, passing through each floor, and everyone went from excitement to silence, and finally to numbness.

"Is this truly the Emperor's collection of books?"

The demon race quasi-emperor held a book titled "Eighteen Points to Note on Cattle Raising," his face even showing a hint of anger.

Is this the lineage of the Great Emperor?

"This is... the Imperial Scripture?"

Suddenly, a voice rang out, and everyone's expression changed as they looked toward the source of the sound.

The Great Sage stared blankly at the book in his hand, his face filled with horror.

Everyone looked at the book in his hand, and three words came into view.

The Ice Emperor's Manual!
