Chapter 1138
Chapter 1138: This is a day of despair, only one skull remains
The palace was majestic, with buildings stretching as far as the eye could see. The current Emperor of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty, full of sorrow, gazed over the vast territory, his fists clenched beneath his dragon robe.
At such a critical moment, how can I easily leave?
These are the people and territories of the Emperor.
The ancestral land of my Yuhua Immortal Dynasty is in the Big Dipper Star Field, enduring since ancient times. Must we abandon it today, leave our hometown, and journey far away?
He couldn’t bear to let go of everything. An unforeseeable crisis was about to descend, and the entire Big Dipper Star Field would turn to dust and ruin, even the Kun Ji Universe would be annihilated.
The Emperor Yuhua naturally understood all of this, perhaps even more than anyone else, but he couldn’t let go of the people and the homeland of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty.
The Yuhua Immortal Dynasty was the oldest and most ancient force in the Big Dipper Star Field, founded by the first Dao-building expert after the Great Extinction, Empress Huang Yu, also known as the founder of the dynasty.
In the Big Dipper Star Field, Empress Huang Yu had extraordinary significance. In the eyes of countless cultivators and beings, she was undoubtedly the rightful first empress, surpa.s.sing all other emperors. After ascending the throne, she generously preached to the generations, leaving behind Dao laws.
Even during the era when other Dao-building experts dominated the world, carrying out the will of the heavens, they didn’t dare to disrespect Empress Huang Yu.
In their eyes, she was a pioneer who opened up a path for cultivation during the most challenging times, when it was almost impossible to achieve Dao-building expertise.
Those Dao-building experts in later generations actually had to bear her debt of grat.i.tude.
Your Majesty, now is not the time to hesitate. The forces that should leave have already gone. Those that remain in the Big Dipper Star Field are few now. As long as the foundation of my Yuhua Immoral Dynasty remains, there will be a day of resurgence. Everyday we stay in the Big Dipper Star field is one more day of crisis. I hope Your Majesty will no longer hesitate.
When the Big Dipper Star Field is destroyed, nothing will exist anymore. Everything will become history. At that time, what else will there be to worry about…
Below the imperial palace, a group of ministers knelt, their faces filled with sorrow, pleading with the Emperor to leave.
They all knew the Emperor Yuhua’s current concerns and worries.
If the ancestors are still here at this time, that would be good…
The Emperor lamented, referring to the first Emperor of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty, who was also the disciple of Empress Huang Yu.
He doesn’t want to bear the blame of a fallen nation, even though he cannot prevent all of this. But now, as the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty carries its heritage and departs for foreign lands.
It signifies abandoning and severing all ties with the homeland and its people. In the eyes of everyone, he becomes the weak and cowardly king who abandoned his people and his doomed nation!
This was to be nailed to the pillar of shame and left to stink for ten thousand years.
Boom!!!
Suddenly, a dazzling golden light burst forth from the depths of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty, like a radiant shower of light filling the sky. There were holy and terrifying fluctuations in that place.
This is……
The ministers in the imperial palace, as well as the Yuhua Immortal Emperor, were all stunned, staring with wide eyes at the deepest part of the palace.
That was the forbidden area of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty, where even the old ancestors could not easily approach.
Everyone speculated that it was the closed-door cultivation site of the ancient ancestors of the Dynasty. But whether there was an old ancestor inside, no one knew for sure.
Since the Empress Huang Yu became Dao-building expert, there had been no cultivator who reached the same level in the subsequent generations.
The strongest were only quasi-emperors, approaching that level but ultimately unable to reach it.
Could it be that the old ancestor has awakened…
The Emperor Yuhua and others were extremely shocked, simultaneously surprised and excited, their gazes fixed on that location.
This is not the aura of the quasi-emperor…
Emperor Yuhua is heading in that direction, how could a Dao-building expert suddenly appear…
This is not the resurgence of imperial weapons, but the aura of a peerless emperor. How is this possible? Didn’t the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty recently produce a Dao-building expert?
And that is after the era of great destruction, a distant past. How could this happen now?
At the same time, in the Big Star Field, in some of the forces that had not yet moved away.
The powerhouses who had awakened were in shock, their faces changing dramatically, as they gazed intensely in the direction of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty.
The brilliance there was too intense, as if a pillar of light had torn through the sky, broken through the universe, overshadowed the Eight Desolates, and was unbelievably terrifying.
In the current North Star Region, there were no true Dao-building experts.
Only in the forbidden zones of life, where ancient existences with weakened life forces resided, and those who had self-severed, could be found. However, their strength was still far from that of true Dao-building experts.
Of course, quasi-emperors were a different matter before them.
Not only in the Big Dipper Star Field but also in the vast and boundless Kun Ji Universe, there was almost no presence of Dao-building experts.
In other star fields, some quasi-emperors, or ancient beings who had self-isolated felt this fluctuation at the same time, their expressions changing fiercely, finding it hard to believe.
After many years, in the depths of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty, the imposing aura of an emperor suddenly rose. It was vast and majestic, causing countless cultivators and beings in this universe to tremble and bow in reverence.
How could there be a Dao-building expert in this era? It’s definitely not the resurgence of imperial weapons but a true, vigorously alive Dao-building expert…
It’s not a sudden emergence of Dao-building experts. Could it be that they have been sealed using secret techniques or other means, avoiding the Five Decays of Heaven and Man?
All the powerhouses were shocked, a.s.sociating the event with the founder of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty. If that were the case, could there be hope for the Kun Ji Universe?
It’s impossible. Even if there is a Dao-building expert, let alone an immortal figure, it probably won’t change anything. The Kun Ji Universe is too weak compared to other ancient universes…
In other ancient universes, the number of Dao-building experts is often in double digits, while we only have one.
Many powerhouses smiled wryly , and the faint hope that had emerged in their hearts shattered. They didn’t believe that the revival of a Dao-building expert at this moment could change anything.
However, they still turned their gaze towards the Big Dipper Star Field.
Boom!
A divine light soared into the sky, as if a seal had been broken. Everyone saw the figure of an exceptionally beautiful woman in phoenix attire standing above the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty. Her divine body was dazzling, naturally emanating an aura that shook the heavens and the earth.
It seemed that even this universe could not accommodate her real body.
Empress Huang Yu, it is indeed her figure.
How did she manage to live from that distant era to the present…
It’s unbelievable. The first emperor in history has actually appeared at this moment.
Is this really the figure of Emperor Huang Yu?
Everyone was in awe, and the ripples in their hearts could not be calmed for a long time.
After all, she was the first to achieve the emperor’s throne after the era of great extinction, carrying the bloodline of the immortal phoenix.
Her talent was terrifying, and her true form was an immortal phoenix. If it weren’t for being born in the wrong era, achieving the emperor’s realm would not have been so simple.
Before the great extinction, all Dao-building experts were obliterated, and the traces of cultivation in the world disappeared.
Yet she managed to forge a path through it all. Such achievements and grandeur were enough to make countless people in later generations admire and respect her.
…
While the Kun Ji Universe was still in awe and disbelief at the appearance of Emperor Huang Yu, in the distant depths of the universe, the chaos exploded. Radiant light, sharp as blades, tore through the cosmic tunnels, and a ma.s.sive upper realm army approached.
The terrifying aura, sweeping across the heavens and the earth, and the majestic flow of time, filled everyone with fear.
Ancient and weathered warships, adorned with blood and bones, plowed through the sky, rapidly approaching the Kun Ji Universe.
Even though there were many crises encountered along the way, some chaotic seas boiled and rioted, drowning many armies, it was difficult to hide the terrifying magnitude of this force.
After all, the upper realm was the center place of the heavens and the myriad realms. There were too many ancient realms, and each universe was far older than the Kun Ji universe.
Rather than saying that the upper realm was attacking the Kun Ji universe, it was better to say that those universes were colliding with the Kun Ji universe, and the acc.u.mulated power was being crushed.
I have already sensed the aura of the Epoch Tree. It is indeed not far from that universe…
On the ancient warship, a background figure spoke with intense excitement, staring at the vast chaos ahead. He felt the aura of the natural laws emanating from it.
This aura made him feel comfortable, as if every pore on his body wanted to stretch and greedily devour that energy.
We must seize the Epoch Tree at the earliest opportunity. Once our true ancestor achieves immortality, our clan will become the top clan in the upper realm!
The Epoch Tree must be ours.
On the warship, other terrifying figures stood, not necessarily ancient beings, but even the weakest among them were quasi-emperor’s at their peak, with surging life force.
They looked into the distance, exuding a terrifying aura like a vast sea, confident as the vanguard exploring the way. Although there were signs of a sacrificial mission, it didn’t diminish their confidence.
According to their perception, this place was extremely remote from the center of the upper realm, and the universal Dao laws here were incredibly deficient. Despite the Epoch Tree growing here and slowly repairing the cosmic environment, it would take a long time before these universes could nurture a sufficient number of powerhouses.
In other words, the strongest beings in these universes would not exceed a certain level, and their numbers were limited.
Rumble!!!
Soon, the ancient warship continued its relentless advance, lighting up countless brilliant runes like a torrent, breaking through the chaotic atmosphere, tearing apart the cosmic barriers, and creating a pa.s.sage that directly connected to the Kun Ji Universe.
The terrible vanguard army of the upper realm had finally arrived!
This was a terrifying force that made the Kun Ji Universe tremble. The pressure was so intense that the rules of heaven and earth were on the verge of shattering. Stars collapsed one after another, exploding into a universal dust storm.
The ancient warship was too ma.s.sive, like an ancient continent descending from the sky, forcefully tearing through the spatial barriers and arriving in this realm.
The figures of cultivators and creatures covered the entire scene, densely packed. Some wielded heavenly knives and swords, while others rode fierce and savage beasts, forming a torrent that sent shivers down the spine. At a glance, there seemed to be no end in sight.
This was only the vanguard; the terrifying main army that followed was even more terrible, capable of overwhelming any universe.
The Dao rules of this universe are pressing down on us, but it’s only to the extent that it can withstand the existence of Dao-building experts. However, once the true ancestor arrives, one person can suppress this entire universe…
Hahaha, the Epoch Tree unexpectedly appears in such a place. Isn’t it waiting specifically for us to descend and harvest it?
The terrible figures standing on the ancient warship laughed heartily when they sensed the level of the Dao laws in this universe. They were completely at ease, not worried at all about any threat this universe might pose to them.
With a sweep of their divine consciousness, they acted arrogantly, openly displaying their aura as Dao-building experts, covering the vast expanse and not hiding anything.
According to their information, they controlled the ancient warship and were swiftly heading towards the location of the Big Dipper Star Field.
Along the way, they ignored the star fields they encountered, not deigning to acknowledge them or wasting any time.
While the Kun Ji Universe posed no threat to them, the forces following behind were no weaker. There might even be terrible figures arriving, so they needed to seize the Epoch Tree as quickly as possible.
Outside forces have arrived…
This day has finally come. How can one resist such a force? Just the aura of the Dao-building experts revealed so far is no less than four!
In many star fields, the forces that had produced Dao-building experts activated their imperial artifacts at the first sign of danger, preparing to resist.
However, what made them despair was that just the revealed auras of Dao-building experts on this ancient warship numbered four, not to mention the quasi-emperors and the ma.s.sive army following behind in this universe.
In the records of the Kun Ji Universe, it was impossible for two Dao-building experts to appear simultaneously in the same era due to the restrictions of the heavenly environment.
However, today, four Dao-building experts appeared at the same time, and just the emanation of their aura was enough to shake the entire universe.
Before Dao-building experts, all cultivators and beings were like ants, unable to resist. Even if quasi-emperor’s activated their imperial artifacts for full recovery, they would probably be shattered.
For the Kun Ji Universe, this day was absolute darkness, akin to an apocalyptic day.
All cultivators and beings saw no glimpse of hope, only darkness and despair in their hearts.
At this moment, in the depths of the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty, divine light shone, and a sacred light rain fell. The divine body of Empress Huang Yu appeared, standing tall in heaven and earth, exuding the aura of a Dao-building expert.
However, the Emperor Yuhua and others who had rushed to the scene were stunned when they saw this scene, filled with astonishment and disbelief.
A Dao platform was situated there, with only a crystalline skull as a jade!
The colossal divine platform emitted light, and large Dao runes surrounded it, intertwining with faint chaotic energy.
Contrary to their expectations, there was no figure Empress Huang Yu here. Instead, there was only a skull, emitting a weak spiritual imprint, arousing the stored Dao-avatar that seemed to convey an emotion… and a pursuit?
