Uncle Liang said, "The ancient war lasted for a long time and spanned almost the entire ancient era. During it, countless human cultivators risked their lives to save the masses from calamity, creating a tragic tale of the human race's golden age. "
"The Primordial Nine Races were way too strong. In the primordial era, when the ten thousand races were established, they dominated Tianhuang Mainland! Under the lead of the Primordial Nine Races, the hundred races joined forces and the human race retreated repeatedly. The territory they occupied became smaller and smaller and could be devoured by the hundred races led by the Primordial Nine Races at any moment … "
"The destruction of the human race was imminent!"
Although they already knew that the outcome of the ancient war was a great victory for the human race, everyone could not help but feel nervous when they heard that.
Uncle Liang took a deep breath of air and said in a deep voice, "In this chaotic world, the Human Emperor appeared and reversed the collapse of the heavens! He suppressed the four regions and three seas almost singlehandedly! He killed the emperors of the hundred races and severed the fortune of the Primordial Nine Races. He swept through Tianhuang Mainland and everywhere he passed, everyone bowed down! "
"Dragon Emperors of Dragons and Protoss Divine Children? All of them had to die in the face of the Human Emperor! Some descendants commented that the hundred races submitted to the birth of the Human Emperor! "
Many cultivators opened their mouths in shock and could not calm down for a long time.
"The outcome of the ancient war was the defeat of the hundred races and they were almost wiped out. The Primordial Nine Races suffered heavy losses as well and hid in their own corners of Tianhuang Mainland, rarely appearing in the world. These nine regions are known as the Nine Great Forbidden Lands. "
When he heard that, Su Zimo shuddered.
He had once heard Demoness Ji mention the nine forbidden grounds. It was said that any living being that entered them would definitely die.
At this moment, the doubts in Su Zimo's heart were finally resolved.
The origin of the nine forbidden grounds was the Primordial Nine Races that once dominated Tianhuang Mainland!
From what Uncle Liang said, if not for the birth of the Human Emperor in the ancient era, the human race would not have been a match for the Primordial Nine Races.
The Human Emperor had long left but the legacy of the Primordial Nine Races was passed down.
Suddenly, Su Zimo thought of something terrifying.
If the Primordial Nine Races were to appear once more in this generation and descend upon Tianhuang Mainland from the nine forbidden grounds, who would be able to stop them if the human race no longer had a Human Emperor?
This kind of worry was rather groundless.
Su Zimo had only thought of that because of the appearance of the Palace Lord of Blood Crow Palace.
Su Zimo shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
Uncle Liang continued, "From then on, the human race prospered. The Ancient Era came to an end, and we entered this era. "Today, no one knows the name of the Human Emperor, but because he ruled over the ages and suppressed the world, the human race called him the Human Emperor. His descendants all call him the Eternal Human Emperor!"
"Because of the appearance of the Human Sovereign, the Hundred Races were destroyed and the Ancient Nine Races disappeared without a trace. An era came to an end. Therefore, the Ancient Era was also known as the Era of the Human Sovereign."
The Eternal Human Emperor!
Uncle Liang continued, "Ever since the ancient era, time has passed and the world has changed. Generations of emperors have appeared in Tianhuang Mainland. However, none of them dared to call themselves the Human Emperor nor did anyone have the right to be conferred the title of eternal!"
Hearing this, Su Zimo slowly exhaled, only these words echoing in his mind.
The title of the Human Emperor was well deserved!
Tang Yu said, "The Human Emperor's Palace was the Human Emperor's resting palace back then and it contained his inheritance. Ever since the Human Emperor left Tianhuang Mainland, the Human Emperor's Palace has only appeared seven times. A total of seven people entered the Human Emperor's Palace and left behind their footprints. Every single cultivator that came out was reborn! "
"Among the seven, three of them were conferred the title of emperor. The other four were the strongest paragons of that era. Unfortunately, they died midway and did not manage to reach the final step."
It was impossible for the path of cultivation to be smooth sailing.
Even cultivators with heaven-defying talents would encounter many tribulations and nobody could guarantee that they would be able to survive them safely.
Tang Yu said, "In the eyes of the descendants, if the other four of the seven cultivators who left their footprints in the Human Emperor's Palace did not die midway, their future accomplishments would definitely be conferred the title of emperor!"
"What's in the Human Emperor's Palace?"
Su Zimo could not help but ask.
Tang Yu chuckled bitterly and shook her head. "Apart from the seven cultivators who left their footprints in the Human Emperor's Palace, no one else knows about that."
Uncle Liang said deeply, "Legend has it that each of the seven people who left their footprints in the Human Emperor's Palace received a different inheritance. For the three of them who were conferred the title of emperor, one of them became an Immortal Emperor, one a Buddhist Emperor and the last a Fiend Emperor. "
Tang Yu looked at Su Zimo and suddenly asked, "Fellow Daoist Su, are you interested in the Human Emperor's Palace's inheritance?"
Su Zimo did not reply and remained silent.
Tang Yu said, "Only a single person can enter the Human Emperor's Palace and leave behind their footprints. If you want to fight for the Human Emperor's Palace's inheritance, you'll definitely encounter many of the strongest cultivators in the ancient battlefield. "
"Furthermore, those cultivators are definitely at eight meridian Foundation Establishment. Right now, you …"
Tang Yu did not continue.
In her opinion, Su Zimo was indeed strong and could even fight against eight meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
However, it was unrealistic for him to suppress the other paragons and enter the Human Emperor's Palace.
No matter what, Su Zimo was only at seven meridian Foundation Establishment right now.
The difference between seven and eight meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivators was way too great!
Furthermore, some super sects had Sealers watching from the sidelines.
Not all Sealers could be baited and killed by Su Zimo.
Su Zimo might be able to deal with a single Sealer, but what about two or three?
"Is Elixir Yang Sect prepared to go?"
Suddenly, Su Zimo asked.
"We're not going,"
Tang Yu shook her head decisively. "I can almost predict that the area beneath the Human Emperor's Palace will be filled with blood and corpses. Who knows, there might be many innocent sects that will be dragged in just to watch the show! "
"We have many ancient books of Elixir Pool Sect on us and we can't afford to lose them. I won't let Elixir Yang Sect take the risk,"
Su Zimo nodded. "I'll take a look at such a rare occasion but I won't participate."
At that moment, Su Zimo lied.
Tang Yu more or less understood Su Zimo's temperament and knew that he would not change his mind easily once he made up his mind.
Tang Yu did not try to persuade him and merely reminded, "If you notice anything amiss with the situation, leave immediately. Don't get dragged in."
"Thank you,"
Su Zimo cupped his fists and bowed.
"Actually, the Human Emperor's Palace has another attraction for Foundation Establishment Cultivators,"
Suddenly, Uncle Liang said, "Legend has it that after eight meridian Foundation Establishment, there's a final spirit meridian that can be unlocked – nine meridian Foundation Establishment! Nine is the limit and that's why nine meridian Foundation Establishment is also known as Extreme Foundation Establishment. "
When he heard that, Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat.
That was the feeling that he had.
When he unlocked his seventh spirit meridian, he did not feel that it was as difficult as others described.
Su Zimo guessed that it might have something to do with the purity of his spirit energy.
Up till this point of his cultivation, he had never consumed an elixir that was impure.
"Legend has it that the Human Emperor was the only one who managed to unlock the illusory ninth spirit meridian!"
Uncle Liang continued, "Of course, that's only a legend. After all, throughout history, apart from the Human Emperor, no one else has been able to unlock the ninth spirit meridian. Even the seven cultivators who left their footprints in the Human Emperor's Palace did not manage to do so. "
"Therefore, some people want to enter the Human Emperor's Palace to search for the secrets of Extreme Foundation Establishment."
