Humans, starting with chat groups, rampage across the heavens.

Chapter 82 The Past of the Ruthless Emperor!

"Ancient texts record that this is a powerful physique that can be traced back to the ancient times, to the first great emperor of the human race, the Taiyin Saint Emperor."

Vivi spoke softly.

"Oh?"

"So this young lady is a cultivation genius?"

Ye Fan looked at Jiang Tingting with some surprise and said.

"This physique is indeed very powerful, but if one cannot be guided onto the path of immortality, those who possess this physique generally do not live past the age of twenty."

Vivi spoke slowly.

"what?"

Ye Fan's expression froze instantly.

Old Man Jiang, who was standing nearby, also heard Weiwei's words. Shocked, he immediately knelt down in front of Lu Chen and the others, saying, "Please, esteemed immortals, save my granddaughter."

Seeing this, Weiwei looked at Lu Chen and said, "Junior Brother, the Taiyin Physique is also a top-tier physique among humans. Why don't we bring this little girl to the Yaochi Sacred Land?"

"It is indeed feasible."

"In that case, why don't we call Elder Yun and the others out and ask them?"

Lu Chen nodded, and then used a secret method to contact the two elders, Yun Dai and Yun Xia, who were secretly protecting them.

These two elders, as protectors of Lu Chen and his companions, generally do not appear unless Lu Chen and his companions are in a life-or-death crisis, unless Lu Chen and his companions take the initiative to contact them.

Soon, Elders Yun Dai and Yun Xia appeared at the inn.

"What's wrong?"

"They tried to contact us using secret methods, but what trouble did they encounter?"

The two elders looked at Lu Chen and asked.

"Elders, please look—"

Lu Chen recounted Jiang Tingting's situation to Elders Yun Dai and Yun Xia. Their eyes lit up, and they immediately went to Jiang Tingting's side to examine her using the bone-touching method.

"Indeed, it is a Yin-type constitution!"

A moment later, a look of surprise appeared in the eyes of Elders Yun Dai and Yun Xia.

"Could it be that Heaven is truly blessing our sacred Jade Pool?"

"Such extraordinary physical qualities have been discovered by us one after another!"

At this moment, Elder Yunxia seemed to have thought of something and turned to Old Man Jiang, asking, "What is your relationship with the Ancient Jiang Family?"

"The ancient Jiang family?"

Old Man Jiang shook his head with a puzzled look and said, "Replying to the Immortal Master, I have never heard of the Ancient Jiang Family, but my father did say before he died that he came from a very large family."

"What is your father's name?"

My father's name is Jiang Zhe.

Old Man Jiang spoke truthfully.

"Kang Chul?!"

"You're actually Jiang Zhe's son?"

Elders Yun Dai and Yun Xia were both somewhat surprised upon hearing this.

They had indeed heard of the name Jiang Zhe; he was an elder from the ancient Jiang family who lived in the same era as them.

However, they later heard that Jiang Zhe had failed in his power struggle with the rest of the Jiang family and had been ousted from the family.

I never expected to meet Jiang Zhe's descendants here today.

What saddened them even more was that Jiang Zhe's cultivation level was no less than theirs back then, yet he did not pass on his cultivation method to his son.

After exchanging pleasantries, Elders Yun Dai and Yun Xia decided that Elder Yun Dai would take Old Man Jiang and his granddaughter Jiang Tingting back to the Yaochi Holy Land, while Elder Yun Xia would remain by Lu Chen's side to protect them.

Mr. Jiang and Jiang Tingting naturally had no objections to this.

Soon, only Lu Chen, Ye Fan, Weiwei, and Xiaonannan remained in the small inn.

Then Lu Chen and the others began to take stock of what they had gained that day.

First, there are those spirit weapons. Don't be fooled by how fiercely the cultivators are fighting over them; these so-called spirit weapons are actually...

They don't even qualify as top-tier soldiers.

Lu Chen didn't really understand why the Azure Emperor was collecting so much junk.

So that when future generations dig up their graves, they won't leave empty-handed?

Isn't that incredibly thoughtful?

Regardless of what the Azure Emperor was thinking, Lu Chen directly divided the spirit weapons he, Ye Fan, and Weiwei had collected into three portions, one for each of them.

The little girl is just a decorative item now, she has no rights, so we won't divide her up.

After distributing the spirit weapons, Lu Chen took out several items he had robbed from Duan De.

They are the Longevity Locks, relics of Emperor Xiang Yufei's previous life, which have the function of stabilizing the soul and resisting curses.

The Neptune Bead Bracelet is said to aid in meditation and spiritual enlightenment when worn.

There is also the powerful divine weapon, the Space Hairpin, which can tear through the void and can also be used for storage.

There is also a Heavenly Demon Lamp, a king-level divine weapon once used by the Heavenly Demon Body.

In addition, there is an ancient imperial decree.

If this thing is taken to the Primordial Ancient Mine, it can be exchanged for a Primordial Life Stone.

In some ways, the value of this ancient imperial decree is higher than that of the other items combined.

All I can say is that Duan De, that fatso, does have quite a few good things on him.

Lu Chen kept only the Ancient Emperor's Decree for himself, gave the Longevity Lock and Space Hairpin to Ye Fan, and the Sea God Pearl Bracelet and Heavenly Demon Lamp to Weiwei. Little Nannan still didn't get any.

All I can say is that the pendant has no say (ω).

Ye Fan was initially embarrassed to accept it, after all, Lu Chen had already given him too much.

However, after Lu Chen said that he would need to help next, he put it away.

Afterwards, Lu Chen tossed the piece of green copper to Ye Fan as well.

Ye Fan examined the copper piece with curiosity and noticed that some rust was about to peel off. So he used his divine power to remove all the rust and reveal the original appearance of the copper piece inside.

It looks like a broken fragment of an object, but upon closer inspection, one discovers an indescribable charm that exudes an endless sense of antiquity and vicissitude.

Just as Ye Fan was staring at it, the green copper piece suddenly transformed into a stream of light and entered the sea of ​​bitterness within Ye Fan's body.

Ye Fan hurriedly checked the situation of the Bitter Sea, only to find that the green copper plate had pushed aside the golden pages of the Daoist scripture that were originally in the center of the Bitter Sea, firmly occupying the central position.

"this----"

Ye Fan stared in disbelief at the scene, then quickly looked up at Lu Chen and asked, "Brother Chen, what exactly is this green copper sheet?"

"How could you just barge into my sea of ​​suffering without my permission?"

"Fragments of a Celestial Artifact"

Lu Chen spoke with a faint smile.

"What?"

"Is this a fragment of a celestial artifact?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan stood up in shock.

"This is Central Plains Green Copper!"

After being reminded by Lu Chen, Weiwei remembered some things.

"Central Plains Green Copper?"

Although Ye Fan had been cramming on a lot of knowledge these past few days, he still couldn't grasp the secrets involving top-tier treasures.

According to the law.

"This green copper is a treasure of the Central Plains. It is said that there was indeed a very secret rumor that the Azure Emperor not only stole the Desolate Tower, a treasure of the Eastern Wilderness, but also the green copper of the Central Plains."

"I can't believe this rumor is true!"

Vivi was also somewhat shocked at this moment.

The powerful figures from the five holy lands and aristocratic families made such a big fuss, but in the end, they not only failed to find the Desolate Tower, but they also missed out on the Green Copper.

Thinking of this, Weiwei couldn't help but feel sorry for those five powerful figures.

However, it was just a moment of silence.

"That thing is incredibly precious."

"It's not safe for Brother Chen to keep such a treasure with me. Why don't you keep it with you for now?"

Ye Fan immediately spoke up.

"Don't worry, as long as you don't take it out casually, no one will know that you have it."

Lu Chen spoke with a faint smile.

"Can----"

Ye Fan knew that once Lu Chen made a decision, he would not change it, so he didn't say anything more.

"Speaking of which, this Azure Emperor seems to really enjoy robbing people of their things, with this Desolate Tower and Green Bronze."

Ye Fan clicked his tongue and said.

"The Desolate Tower was indeed stolen, but this Green Copper can't really be considered stolen."

Lu Chen chuckled and spoke.

"Oh? Could it be that this green bronze belongs to the Azure Emperor himself?"

Hearing Lu Chen say this, Ye Fan asked curiously.

"The original owner of this green bronze was naturally not the Azure Emperor, but this thing has been with the Azure Emperor for at least tens of thousands of years, if not millions."

Lu Chen spoke calmly.

"Millions?"

"Wait! I remember you said before, Brother Chen, that even a Great Emperor-level expert can only live for tens of thousands of years at most?"

"How can the Azure Emperor live for so long?"

Ye Fan asked with a look of surprise and doubt.

Weiwei, who was sitting next to Lu Chen, was also somewhat surprised.

Regarding the Azure Emperor, the emperor who lived the most recent time, Weiwei had read many rumors about him, but she had never heard of the Azure Emperor living for so long.

"This question involves the origins and background of the Azure Emperor."

Lu Chen didn't hide anything and slowly explained, "Looking at all the ancient emperors and celestial beings from the mythological era to today, the Azure Emperor's origins are definitely the most unique among them."

"Because the Azure Emperor was actually an immortal divine herb that took human form and eventually cultivated itself into an emperor!"

"The elixir of immortality has materialized?!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan and Weiwei were both extremely shocked.

They never imagined that the Azure Emperor would have such an origin!

Lu Chen continued, "This Azure Emperor was originally an immortal lotus, nurtured by millions in the Immortal Transformation Pool of Central Continent. A large part of the reason why the Azure Emperor was able to successfully transform is because it was rooted in this green copper piece and absorbed some of the Dao essence within it."

"I see!"

"Then this Azure Emperor is indeed legendary enough."

Ye Fan nodded knowingly.

"By the way, if this green copper piece is a fragment of a celestial artifact, how did it break like this? Who could possibly shatter a celestial artifact?"

Ye Fan then asked another question that had been bothering him.

"Even immortal artifacts are not necessarily indestructible."

Lu Chen slowly spoke, "The original body of this green copper piece is the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, a celestial artifact. This Immortal Ascension Cauldron was forged by the Heavenly Emperor, the ruler of the Heavenly Court during the mythological era, using the power of the entire Heavenly Court."

"As can be seen from the name, the purpose of the Emperor in forging this immortal artifact was to become an immortal. Moreover, it was not just him who wanted to become an immortal, but to lead everyone in the entire Heavenly Court to ascend to immortality together."

"Unfortunately, some unexpected events occurred later, the Emperor's plan failed, and a war broke out in the Heavenly Court that ended the mythological era."

An epic battle.

"The Ascension Cauldron was shattered during this great battle by several powerful Heavenly Venerables working together."

Hearing about the secrets involving the mythical Celestial Venerable, Ye Fan was filled with shock.

However, Lu Chen's next words shocked Ye Fan even more.

"Ye Zi, do you know where the Emperor forged this Ascension Cauldron back then?"

Seeing the ambiguous smile on Lu Chen's face, a bold idea flashed into Ye Fan's mind.

"Brother Chen, you're not going to tell me that the Emperor's Ascension Cauldron was forged on Earth, are you?"

"That's right!"

"It's the Kunlun Mountains of Earth."

Lu Chen chuckled and said, "Earth was once a planet with an incredibly prosperous cultivation civilization, seemingly no less advanced than Beidou today."

"It was because the Emperor drained all the spiritual energy on Earth in order to forge the Immortal Cauldron. Not only Earth, but also the spiritual energy of the planets nearby was completely drained. It was in this way that this immortal artifact was forged."

"So this is why there are no cultivators on Earth today?"

Ye Fan took a deep breath, calmed his complicated emotions, and spoke.

Not entirely.

Lu Chen shook his head slightly and continued, "After the Emperor forged the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, millions of years have passed, and the spiritual energy on Earth has actually recovered considerably."

"Until the time of the Feathered God Dynasty, which was over 100,000 years ago, the Feathered God Dynasty was extremely powerful. One of the emperors of the Feathered God Dynasty used the power of the entire dynasty to collect most of the fragments of the Ascension Cauldron, wanting to recast the Ascension Cauldron on Earth, the place that gave birth to it."

"So, the Earth has been ruined by these people again?"

Ye Fan interrupted, his tone tinged with resentment.

Lu Chen nodded and continued, "Since not all the fragments of the Ascension Cauldron had been collected at the time, the Feathered Divine Dynasty decided to use a blood sacrifice to recast the cauldron."

"Therefore, the Feathered Divine Dynasty began to capture people of all races with high cultivation aptitude and send them to Kunlun Mountain on Earth for blood sacrifice."

"Until they learned about two children, a boy and a girl, in a small town, they kidnapped a very talented boy."

"My child, you left behind a little girl of ordinary talent. From this point on, the deepest seeds of destruction for the Feathered Divine Dynasty were sown."

"Years later, that ordinary little girl, driven by the desire to avenge her brother, created the astonishing 'Devouring Heaven Demon Art' with her extraordinary talent. She devoured the essence of countless geniuses, rising to power and causing fear and bloodshed among the world. In the end, this ordinary little girl attained the Dao and became an emperor, revered by the world as the 'Ruthless Great Emperor.'"

"After that, the Ruthless Great Emperor destroyed the once glorious Feathered Divine Dynasty with a single palm strike. Then he went to Kunlun Mountain on Earth and angrily smashed the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, which was almost fully repaired, to pieces with a single palm strike."

Just as Lu Chen was recounting the deeds of the Ruthless Great Emperor, the little girl sitting in Lu Chen's arms had a complex and meaningful look in her eyes at some point.

"The Ruthless Emperor!"

"What an impressive name!"

"To rise from a mere mortal to become an emperor, I think this ruthless emperor's experience is even more legendary than that of the Azure Emperor."

Ye Fan clicked his tongue in longing and sighed.

I've had acute gastroenteritis these past few days, so Chapter Two will have to wait a bit.
