The Immortal Realm entered the Nether Sea Era. In the mid-Nether Sea Era, the four current great overlord races, the Jiuyou Bo Clan, the Ancient Emperor Clan, the Ancestral Dragon Hall, and the Heavenly Horn Ant Clan, were chosen by the Emperor Ruins. At this time, the first great avatar of Emperor Kunpeng Immortal retrieved the shattered body of his second great avatar, reformed it, and passed down the Kunpeng Body Technique.
By the end of the Nether Sea Era, the four great powers and races had already accumulated some strength. Emperor Fire Demon of the Fire Demon Palace and Emperor Xie Yue of the Xie Yue Immortal Cave left the Immortal Realm and entered the Emperor Ruins. It was also at this time that the second great avatar of Emperor Kunpeng Immortal, having mastered the Kunpeng Body Technique, wielded the Chaos Desolation Halberd and waged war throughout the Immortal Realm, solely to attract attention and create an opportunity for his first great avatar to infiltrate the Emperor Ruins.
However, it was a pity that the second great avatar failed. His head was jointly severed by the ancestors of the current four great overlords and sealed away completely!
*Dong dong dong~~*
The pulsating frequency of that blood-red light cluster grew faster and faster, shattering the smoke-filled territory.
*Huala la~~*
Suddenly, from the thirty-thousand-zhang skeletal remains, a sound like torrential rain poured down. Everyone choked, and as the sound spread, a layer of dim, gray gas cascaded downwards, enveloping the thirty-thousand-zhang bones. It was like a curse flowing within the Immortal Realm's Sea of Boundaries.
While such a curse would not have a significant effect on those present, as each possessed supreme treasures for defense, why did this curse, originally an ill omen from the Immortal Realm's Sea of Boundaries, suddenly appear on the Ancient Star Path and on these skeletal remains?
"To investigate, we must enter that blood-red light cluster. Lord Supreme said that the Chaos Demon Ape was sealed by his own hands," Emperor Mieshi Immortal murmured involuntarily.
"Let's set them aside for now. We shall enter together, so we can look out for each other and quickly locate the Chaos Demon Ape. We will then await Lord Supreme's arrival!" Emperor Guyuan Immortal turned and glanced at Suzaku, Kunpeng, Yuwen Chengdu, and Gao Chong, saying.
"The seal has already been broken?" At this moment, a surprised voice rang out. Instantly, all the Immortal Emperors present turned their gaze towards the figure emerging from the spatial passage.
It was a man, with an ordinary appearance and flowing black hair. He wore a white long robe, seemingly unstained by dust.
"Luo Changsheng!" Emperor Kunpeng Immortal uttered each word, his expression becoming tense.
Luo Changsheng!
The grandson of Emperor Luozun Supreme!
One of the overlords of the Desolate Era!
A formidable enemy of Emperor Kunpeng Immortal's true form!
Having left the Immortal Realm at the end of the Desolate Era, Luo Changsheng had already controlled eighty-nine Imperial Destinies. Now, the Nether Sea Era had ended, and the Era of Emperors had passed for eons. Just how powerful was he now, no one knew.
"Greetings, Emperor Luo!" Emperors Mieshi, Guyuan, Tianjiao, and Zulong Immortal respectfully saluted like servants. Behind them, Emperor Zhenlong Immortal, Emperor Tianhuang Immortal, and Emperor Xuanyou Immortal also hastily bent their waists. They had never seen Luo Changsheng before, nor had they heard the elders mention him. The fact that he could command such solemnity from the four elders indicated the immense power of the being who had appeared.
"You are merely an avatar and are not qualified to speak to me!" Luo Changsheng glanced at Emperor Kunpeng and Suzaku, his disdainful gaze then shifting to the thirty-thousand-zhang skeletal remains of the Chaos Demon Ape.
"The seal has been broken. Follow me in and slay the Chaos Demon Ape!" Luo Changsheng said softly. Above his head, a nine-story exquisite pagoda floated, shielding him from the cursed ill omen.
"We obey your imperial decree, Immortal Emperor!" The four elders, Mieshi Immortal, bowed respectfully, each producing a supreme treasure.
"Kunpeng, let's see how long you intend to hide!" Luo Changsheng did not look at the first avatar of Emperor Kunpeng Immortal but spoke towards the east of the Ancient Star Path. Then, with a single step, he strode towards the blood-red light cluster.
"Let's go!" Emperor Guyuan Immortal glanced at the several Immortal Emperors behind him and spoke. Instantly, all the beings began to ascend the thirty-thousand-zhang skeletal remains, their supreme treasures resisting the terrifying ill omen, creating chaotic energies like that of the primordial chaos. Soon, only the first avatar of Emperor Kunpeng Immortal, Suzaku, Yuwen Chengdu, and Gao Chong remained.
"Let's go!" Suzaku spoke. The four beings also conjured their supreme treasures and walked towards the blood-red light cluster. Half an hour later, all the beings stood on the giant ribs, gazing at the powerful, vigorous blood-red light cluster. Luo Changsheng calmly extended a hand, and the blood-red light cluster split into two, revealing the space enclosed within. He stepped in, followed by the other Immortal Emperors, Emperor Guyuan and the others, in sequence.
Yuwen Chengdu exchanged a grave look with Gao Chong. Gao Chong shook his head slightly and then followed Suzaku's footsteps into that space. With a shift, the scene before their eyes changed. It was an ancient battlefield, littered with white bones, with fragments of immortal treasures scattered everywhere. The dried blood was wrinkled like the very wrinkles of the earth.
*Rumble rumble!*
Suddenly, all the beings who had stepped into this world were enveloped by a layer of blood-red light. Abruptly, Emperor Mieshi Immortal vanished. *Dong dong dong*, several more figures disappeared. Yuwen Chengdu was about to speak when he and Gao Chong were pulled away from their original positions. The moment they could see clearly again, they were in another realm. Here, besides them, there were no other beings.
"Suzaku said that Emperor Luozun Supreme, in order to conceal the seal of the Chaos Demon Ape, had set up many protective formations back then. What just happened must have been the random dispersal caused by those formations," Gao Chong said solemnly, looking at the scene before him. So many years had passed, yet those formations were still functioning normally.
"Let's go!" Yuwen Chengdu spoke. The two of them identified a direction and walked forward. Along the way, they encountered the changes of the four seasons, as well as the sun, moon, and stars. Except for the absence of any living beings, it was not much different from the Immortal Realm. After a day, they found an immensely large fist imprint within a shattered mountain peak, which still emanated a faint killing intent.
"Judging by the size of this fist imprint, it somewhat aligns with the palm bone of the thirty-thousand-zhang skeletal remains. It must have been left behind during the battle of the Chaos Demon Ape. In the Immortal Ancient Era, after such a long time, one can still perceive the flowing Imperial Might!" Yuwen Chengdu stood at the edge of the fist imprint, sensing the changes in the Imperial Might.
"General Yuwen, what is this?" Gao Chong called out to Yuwen Chengdu, holding a white fragment. This white fragment resembled the bone of a living being, yet also a fragment of an immortal treasure.
"It seems that the battle back then was quite significant. Let alone the Immortal Ancient Era, even the overlords of the Nether Sea Era were far more powerful than the current overlord Immortal Emperors. That battle must have been earth-shattering and awe-inspiring!" Yuwen Chengdu caressed the white fragment.
