Sword World.
Lu Yun and the others described the many rumors they heard in detail. The Iron Crown Old Man and the other two were not completely satisfied and sighed.
“Why did we come back? If we had known earlier, we would have stayed there for a while longer.”
The fat old man complained.
Many battle scenes were spread over after countless mouths. Even so, everyone was incomparably shocked and emotional when they heard it!
He single-handedly swept through nearly a hundred Emperor experts!
What kind of combat strength was that?
The skinny old man was secretly speechless. “Desolate Martial is truly fearless. He even killed many experts of the Heavenly Court behind the Blessed Heaven World.”
Before the Green Lotus True Body left the Sword World, he had discussed a lot with the Iron Crown Old Man and the other two and they mentioned the existence of the Heavenly Court.
The fat old man a.n.a.lyzed, “Desolate Martial is fearless and might have the backing of an incredible expert like the Fiend Lord.”
Lu Yun said, “Emperor Desolate Martial became famous in a single battle and shocked the ten thousand races. He’s probably the expert with the highest chance of becoming a Great Emperor in this generation.”
“Not necessarily.”
The Iron Crown Old Man shook his head. “It’s not that simple to become a Great Emperor.”
“Desolate Martial has the strongest combat strength, but he might not be able to become a Great Emperor. To be precise, any peak Emperor expert in the medium chiliocosm can take that single step forward.”
“At the very least, Demon Empress Blood b.u.t.terfly has a high chance of becoming a Great Emperor.”
The fat old man lamented, “The two of them are Dao Companions. Notwithstanding Great Emperors, the two of them can probably do whatever they want in the medium chiliocosm if they join forces.”
“It’s truly unexpected.”
The skinny old man sighed. “I thought that Demon Empress Blood b.u.t.terfly was already a peerlessly ruthless person. Who would have thought that there was someone even more ruthless behind her!”
Yu Lan asked, “The two of them are so powerful. Do they have a chance of becoming Great Emperors at the same time?”
“Impossible!”
The Iron Crown Old Man shook his head. “You guys haven’t entered the Emperor realm and don’t understand the reason. Throughout history, only one Great Emperor can be born in every era. There has never been a situation of two Great Emperors standing side by side!”
“As long as a Great Emperor is alive and his imprint is not destroyed, no one else will ever be able to become a Great Emperor.”
As though he had thought of something, the fat old man looked at the eight Peak Masters of Sword Peak and asked, “Has there been any news of Su Zimo recently?”
Lu Yun and the others’ expressions darkened as they shook their heads.
The Iron Crown Old Man had a conflicted expression. “Su Zimo possesses the bloodline of the Grade 12 Creation Green Lotus and comprehended nine peerless divine powers at the Perfected One realm. It’s unprecedented.”
“If he’s given enough time, he will definitely have a chance to become a Great Emperor in the future…”
“However, experts like Desolate Martial and Die Yue are too dazzling in this generation. I’m afraid a Great Emperor will be born before he even grows further.”
A strange black hole floated in the vast and endless starry skies.
The battle in the Great Wilderness caused a huge commotion in the medium chiliocosm.
Only that strange black hole was silent and isolated from the world.
In the black hole, there was a Path to Heaven. At the end of the path stood a gigantic pitch-black stone pillar.
Surrounding the stone pillar were 18 Grotto-heaven Kings.
Three of them sat at the front and were peak Kings who were taking turns refining the pitch-black stone pillar.
280 years had pa.s.sed.
Monkey King Scarlet Sea had long made up his mind that he would not hesitate even if he had to spend thousands or even tens of thousands of years here!
The Great Emperor Weapon itself was secondary.
Most importantly, there was a high chance that the inheritance left behind by Great Emperor Combat was hidden in the Great Emperor Weapon.
The Taboo Mystic Cla.s.sic, the Combat Totem!
The person trapped inside also possessed the bloodline of a Grade 12 Creation Green Lotus and was a rare utmost treasure.
Inside the pitch-black stone pillar.
More than a hundred years ago, Su Zimo and Monkey had already obtained the inheritance of the Combat Totem.
Monkey entered the blood pool containing the Connected Arms Sanguine Ape bloodline and received the baptism inheritance.
As for Su Zimo, he sat in front of Great Emperor Combat’s tomb and comprehended the secrets of the Grotto-heaven.
Actually, back in the Land of Day and Night, he had a chance to advance further and step into the Grotto-heaven realm the moment he entered the Paradise Void realm!
However, after weighing the pros and cons for a long time, Su Zimo did not take that step.
His Dao Fruit had not been cultivated to the perfected realm.
Furthermore, he had a bold and even crazy thought!
Up till this point of Su Zimo’s cultivation, with the help of the Creation Green Lotus body, he was able to cultivate the Immortal, Buddhist, Fiend and Demon Daos. In fact, there was no conflict in his body with the four Dharmic Daos and they all became his creation.
In terms of the Immortal Dao, the Taboo Mystic Cla.s.sics he had were the Three Pure Ones Jade Manual and the Zenith Heaven Sword Cla.s.sic. For high-grade cultivation techniques, he also had the Exalted Mystic Spirit Big Dipper True Sutra and Void Thunder Manual et cetera.
In terms of the Buddhist Dao, the Taboo Mystic Cla.s.sic he had was the Prajna Nirvana Sutra. Apart from that, he had many secret skills such as the Great Vajra Wheel Seal and the Great Mount Meru Seal et cetera.
In terms of the Fiend Dao, he had the Taboo Mystic Cla.s.sic, the Heaven Burial Sutra.
In terms of the Demon Dao, he had the Mystic Cla.s.sic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness imparted to him by Die Yue as well as the newly cultivated Combat Totem. In fact, he inherited secret skills of the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger and Black Tortoise Sacred Beasts as well.
There were nine peerless divine powers synthesized in his Dao Fruit!
At the very least, at the Perfected One realm, he was already incomparably powerful and unparalleled!
Su Zimo was prepared to advance to the Grotto-heaven realm.
However, he was not only going to condense a single Grotto-heaven—he was going to condense five of them!
Immortal Grotto-heaven, Buddhist Grotto-heaven, Demon Grotto-heaven, the Zenith Heaven Sword Tomb and the Yin Yang Grotto-heaven!
In terms of the Fiend Dao, he only cultivated a single Taboo Mystic Cla.s.sic and it was relatively weaker in comparison.
Coupled with the Zenith Heaven Sword Cla.s.sic, it formed the Zenith Sword Tomb that represented the Fiend Dao!
He had developed this thought back in the Land of Day and Night.
If he could condense five Grotto-heavens the moment he advanced to the Grotto-heaven realm, his combat strength would definitely increase exponentially and reach an extremely terrifying level!
Since ancient times, no one had done this.
That was because it was impossible.
The power required to condense five Grotto-heavens was way too immense.
His Dao Fruit had synthesized nine peerless divine powers and had been cultivated to a perfected state. The power released could only help him condense two Grotto-heavens at most.
It was simply impossible to condense five Grotto-heavens.
When Su Zimo found out that this was the tomb of Great Emperor Combat, he thought of a solution.
Now that he had acc.u.mulated for more than a hundred years and the time was ripe, he caught the opportunity to enter the Grotto-heaven once more!
Boom!
This time round, Su Zimo no longer hesitated.
The Dao Fruit flew out of his glabella and exploded under the channeling of his spirit consciousness, erupting with an extremely terrifying power that tore through the void instantly, blasting out a gigantic black hole that reached the heavens!
Su Zimo’s eyes widened and were bloodshot. With the help of his spirit consciousness, he tried his best to control the immense power and gradually split the black hole in the void into five!
Apart from releasing a terrifying power, all the Dharmic Daos that were originally fused into the Dao Fruit were released at that moment.
Su Zimo divided the Dharmic Daos rapidly and sent the Dharmic Daos representing the Immortal Dao into the first Grotto-heaven.
He fused the Dharmic Daos that represented the Buddhist Dao into the second Grotto-heaven.
The first two Grotto-heavens absorbed almost all the power released by the
Dao Fruit and gradually stabilized.
However, because he did not have enough strength to support the remaining three Grotto-heavens, they were already showing signs of collapse!
