Chapter 2397: The Hunting Begins, the Emperor’s Tomb

The Supreme Youths and ancient prodigies were all furious!
They were clearly treated like prey. What kind of existences were they? When had they ever been treated like this?
They had always been the ones hunting others. When had they ever been hunted like this?
This was especially so when the demons were openly targeting them. To be precise, they were targeting all the major races of the Central Plains, not just the humans.
In truth, to the demons, the various races of the Central Plains were basically the most important targets for their extermination.
It was just that the order in which these targets had to be eliminated was not quite the same.
At the moment, the humans were of course the priority, but the other races were also within the scope of the elimination target. Their Supreme Youths and ancient prodigies had a chance to advance to the King Stage.
This was a huge problem for the demons. They could not be allowed to continue growing like this.
These enraged Supreme Youths and ancient prodigies spontaneously organized a counter-hunt. Instead, they began to hunt down the top experts of the demons.
Both sides were top-notch existences. Although they were not in the King Stage, the battle situation was very, very tragic.
It could even be said that it was far more tragic than the battle of the King Stage.
Under such circ.u.mstances, the demons suffered heavy losses. Many of the casualties were even the leaders of the demon race.
However, the demons did not stop. This was because the demons that were killed were all existences who had no hope of breaking through to the King Stage, and the people they had killed were all experts of the various races of the Central Plains who had hope of breaking through to the King Stage.
Even two for one was a very cost-effective ratio.
Everything was to buy enough time for the true Supreme Youths demons to eliminate the opponents they had to face.
In these ten years, the war situation was extremely tragic.
Another piece of news began to spread throughout the Central Plains.
In a secret realm of the Central Plains, there was an Emperor’s inheritance. Whoever could obtain this Emperor’s inheritance would have a chance of breaking through to become the first Emperor.
For a time, the world was in an uproar.
This was especially true for those Kings. Everyone had cultivated to this stage, so they naturally hoped to have the chance to become Emperors.
They were unwilling to give up halfway.
For a moment, the entire world seemed to be covered up by this news.
On this day, in the skies above the Central Plains, an enormous tomb appeared before everyone.
This tomb was hidden in a special s.p.a.ce, and it would only appear in the Central Plains at specific times.
“There’s the aura of an Emperor in it!”
Some Kings could sense the aura of an Emperor from it, and it instantly attracted the attention of countless Kings.
This tomb was very vast, but everyone could see that the tomb was not man-made, but naturally formed.
This was a true tomb of an Emperor because only Emperors could seize the fortune of heaven and earth. They were loved by heaven and earth. Only when they died would the laws of heaven and earth automatically form a tomb for them.
This tomb, which was obviously evolved from the Heavenly Dao, clearly had an Emperor buried in it.
For a moment, many Kings began to move. Even many half-Kings made their moves.
Chu Yunfan also received this news and finally came out of seclusion.
After ten years of seclusion, Chu Yunfan’s strength had increased by another level. After consuming the Brahma Fruits again, his strength had soared again. There was a world-shaking change, and he smoothly broke through to the peak of the late King Stage.
With his current strength, even if he encountered a peak King, there was nothing to be afraid of. Even if he could not defeat the other party, he could still retreat.
He could be considered to have the ability to protect himself!
“The hunt is finally about to begin,” Chu Yunfan muttered to himself.
He had also received news from the Grand Commandant before this.
Without a doubt, this was the beginning of the hunt that the Grand Commandant had mentioned.
Finally, after many years of planning, the humans’ counterattack and revenge were finally about to begin.
Chu Yunfan finally understood why this plan took decades.
This was because it involved the tomb of an Emperor.
That was the burial ground of an Emperor. Many of the laws and Heavenly Dao involved were not something that a King could understand.
It was naturally not easy to use this tomb to set up a killing array. Perhaps for the past few decades, the humans had been in a pa.s.sive state of being beaten up. The King humans rarely made a move, so they set up this killing array.
“It’s time to end this!” Chu Yunfan said lightly.
After receiving this news, Chu Hongcai and the others were eager to go to the Emperor’s tomb, but they were stopped by Chu Yunfan.
He knew what this tomb meant. It was a deadly trap.
Although their cultivation progress was very fast and they had already reached the peak of the early King Stage in the past 20 to 30 years, they were half a step away from reaching the intermediate stage. However, they had not reached it in the end.
Only Tang Siyu had reached the intermediate King Stage. However, at that moment, Tang Siyu had already gone to Serene Immortal Mountain to guard it. She was not in the Flying Celestials.
Chu Yunfan did not let them go with him because he had another purpose. He wanted to leave some seeds for the humans.
After all, this battle was abnormally dangerous. Even with the killing trap set up by this tomb, it was unknown how many difficulties they would encounter if they wanted to kill all the demon experts.
Not to mention, there were also experts from other races eyeing them covetously.
It was even possible that he would encounter an accident.
Naturally, he could not let the entire humans’ strength be buried in this killing trap.
Thinking of this, Chu Yunfan left behind some backup plans like the Flying Celestial Founder. Then, he rushed straight to the looming Emperor’s tomb above the Central Plains.
In just a moment, he had already arrived at the Emperor’s tomb. Just as Chu Yunfan had expected, this was an alternate dimension.
It was an alternate dimension formed naturally by the Heavenly Dao. It would only appear in front of people at specific times. Most of the time, it would drift in the spatial turbulence and would only appear in front of everyone once in countless years.
At this moment, the entire Emperor’s tomb was extremely lively.
Chu Yunfan saw that the Emperor’s tomb was surrounded by endless white bones. These white bones piled up into mountains. From afar, it looked like a confluence of white bones.
It was a shocking sight.
These white bones faintly emitted an astonishing pressure. They were actually the bones of many experts who had died.
