"Burning books and hiding emperors …" Chu Kuangren muttered with a mocking look on his face. "Unknown lands? In my opinion, they should change their name to the Shameless Lands. "
Emperors were the pinnacle of cultivation, and the birth of every Emperor was accompanied by endless glory. Their deeds should have been passed down to the world, revered by future generations, and pointed out the direction of cultivation for future generations.
However, these so-called unknown lands had sealed away the glory of the Emperors for their own selfish desires, causing future cultivators to only know about Emperors, but not what it meant to be an Emperor.
It was the Heavenly Dao's shackles that no one could become an Emperor during the Era of Dharma's End.
By burning books and hiding emperors, the unknown lands had created a cage for future cultivators. The future generations were trapped in this cage, unable to see the glory of an Emperor, not knowing what an Emperor could do, and not knowing how to become an Emperor …
"The Shameless Lands?"
"Haha, that's a good name."
The divine predictor was stunned for a moment before he laughed out loud. He looked at Chu Kuangren with a strange look in his eyes. "Even in the Era of Great Battles, it's still extremely difficult to become an Emperor. However, the unknown lands have the Emperor's Inheritance in their hands, so an Emperor should be born from them."
"But Young Friend Chu, you're an exception. I hope to see you slap the faces of the Unknown Lands. Let them know that even if they burn their books and hide their emperors, and make everyone ignorant of them, there are still people who can break out of their cage and become emperors!!"
The divine predictor was the best fortune teller of the current generation. He had long predicted that the chance of becoming an Emperor would be firmly controlled by the unknown lands in this Era of Great Battles, but now, an unfathomable anomaly had appeared.
Things were developing in an unexpected direction.
This made the divine predictor very interested. He himself did not have a good impression of the unknown lands, so naturally, he was happy to see this happen.
"With me, Chu Kuangren, in this world, who would dare to become an Emperor?!"
Chu Kuangren laughed and his figure turned into a stream of light, disappearing into the distance as he flew towards the Empyrean Peak.
…
Black Warrior Domain, Empyrean Peak.
After the empyrean walker Ling Xiao of the Nine Cloud Rapture set up an arena here, this place became a gathering place.
Countless sky-prides came from all directions.
Even the Sages were paying close attention to this place.
The Empyrean Peak was filled with people.
At the peak of the mountain, there was a person standing proudly.
This person's black hair draped over his shoulders, and his figure was straight. He held a black spear in his hand, and it was as if he and the spear had fused into one. An incomparably sharp aura circulated around this person, as if it could pierce through the sky!
He was the empyrean walker who had set up the arena, the empyrean walker from the Nine Cloud Heaven of the unknown lands … Ling Xiao!
Its name was Soaring Firmament, its spear was called Soaring Firmament, and its aura was as if it wanted to soar above the nine heavens!
"This person is Ling Xiao. He is indeed extraordinary. I heard that he has been in the world for three months, but the number of geniuses who have been defeated by him is in the double digits. His battle strength is even more terrifying than ordinary Sages."
"Are all empyrean walkers this insane?"
"I really don't know how those so-called Unknown Lands nurtured them. It's too unbelievable."
"All this while, we thought that the most powerful forces were the Sage Orthodoxies. Who would have thought that there were so many so-called Unknown Places hidden in this world."
Around the Empyrean Peak, countless people had gathered. Looking at Ling Xiao on the peak, they could not help but discuss among themselves.
At that moment, a ray of green sword gleam flew through the sea of clouds and stopped before Ling Xiao. It transformed into a young man dressed in green, surrounded by fine strands of sword qi.
The man stared at Ling Xiao and said coldly, "So you're the one who set up the arena here and challenged all the empyrean walkers?!"
"That's right, it's me."
Ling Xiao grinned at the man in green before him and said, "With such sword qi, if I'm not mistaken, you're Li Fuping, the empyrean walker from the Dark Moon Tower. Am I right?"
"You have a good eye."
Li Fuping said calmly, admitting that the man was right.
The long sword at his waist was unsheathed with a clang, and a strand of sword qi flew past Ling Xiao. He said, "Then, let's fight."
"Don't be hasty. It's just the two of us. It's not fun enough."
Ling Xiao laughed.
As soon as he finished speaking, a giggle came from the distant sky. A woman in red leaped into the air. Her beautiful and charming face attracted the hearts of many male cultivators present.
"It's her, Feng Yaorao."
"She's the empyrean walker from the Thousand Flower Valley. She's here too."
"It's not just Feng Yaorao."
After Feng Yaorao appeared, there seemed to be a flash of starlight in the sky. A ray of sword gleam flew over and turned into a young man in black.
His sword qi was extremely mysterious, not much weaker than Li Fuping's.
The ground shook.
A burly man walked up the Empyrean Peak with a majestic gait. Every step he took caused the ground to shake. His aura was majestic.
"Oh, Ye Xin from the Big Dipper Palace and Guo Shan from the Immovable Palace."
Ling Xiao read out their names one by one.
Another figure leaped into the air. His entire body was filled with a domineering and scorching battle intent as he stared straight at Ling Xiao.
"Zhan Long from the Battle Cloud Realm. How have you been?"
Ling Xiao said calmly.
Now that four empyrean walkers had arrived, the surrounding audience was extremely excited. They started discussing excitedly.
"Six. There are six empyrean walkers here now. If they were to fight, I wonder how intense it would be."
"According to my observation, the empyrean walkers have at least the combat strength of a Sage. They're very terrifying."
"Who else? Who else is coming?!"
Although most of the empyrean walkers were not Sages, they possessed combat strength that was on par with Sages. Moreover, empyrean walkers had been in the limelight recently and had become the hottest topic in Firmament Star.
Hence, the scene before them could be described as the grandest event in the world.
Buzz!
Ripples appeared in the void.
A young man in white walked out of the void. This young man's aura was like the clouds in the sky, ethereal and unpredictable.
"Oh, here comes another tough one."
Ling Xiao looked at him. "Sir, please tell me your name."
"Xue Zheng from Ethereal Rapture."
The young man in white, Xue Zheng, smiled faintly.
"Oh, so you're an empyrean walker from Ethereal Rapture."
Ling Xiao nodded slightly.
At this moment, there was a sudden flash of golden light in the distant sky. Amidst the golden light, a carriage flew over. Everywhere it went, a road made of golden bricks appeared in the void. It was glorious and grand.
"A road made of golden bricks. Someone from the Gold Family is here."
Ling Xiao looked at the carriage and said.
"It's the empyrean walker from the Gold Family, Jin Bujue!"
A deep voice came from within the carriage. A man wearing a robe made of golden silk, a golden belt, a golden crown, a golden ring on his finger, and a golden longsword hung on his waist walked out.
The crowd could only feel the dazzling golden light before them.
"How can I miss out on the empyrean walkers' challenge?"
A young man in gray came over. His body exuded a strange gray aura. Everywhere he went, the plants withered and died.
Looking at him, the crowd frowned. They instinctively felt repulsed.
"Which empyrean walker is this?"
"Tsk, this aura, he's definitely from the Sacred Palace of Death."
All the empyrean walkers took turns to enter the arena.
Each of them had an extraordinary aura.
The surrounding crowd was extremely excited to see this.
"Haha, most of the people are here. Let's see who's the number one sky-pride in this world!!"
Ling Xiao laughed. With his black spear in hand, his spirit soared!
As soon as he said that.
"Number one? Who else could it be other than me?! "
An indifferent voice came from the clouds.
Following that, a loud rumble was heard. It was as if something was coming at them from the sky!
A magnificent ancient sword descended from the sky and landed right in the middle of the crowd. Majestic sword qi swept out from the blade of the sword, sending the empyrean walkers flying a thousand feet away from the force of the sword qi!
A white-robed figure descended and landed in front of the crowd.
The crowd's emotions reached its peak at that moment.
"He's here, Chu Kuangren is here!!"
