Report

The crescent moon was dyed in blood and laid on the ground. It was called the Crimson Moon Cave, a land of extreme yin and gentleness. Even the Great Sage Lords had to make a detour around it. It was an extremely terrifying land.

The dark sun sank below the mountain. It was called the Fallen Sun Ridge, a land of extreme yang that could burn everything in the world. Even the Emperors had to avoid it. It was one of the most dangerous places in the world.

Just seeing one was enough to shock the world. Two existed at the same time. It could be said to be an extreme demonic land since ancient times. It was rarely seen in the world.

Emperor Heng Yu was refining an extreme weapon in such a place. It was unimaginable. Anyone who heard about it for the first time would be shocked.

"Is that Emperor really so powerful?" Ye Fan was dumbfounded.

This was the absolute beginning forbidden zone. The Crimson Moon Cave and the Fallen Sun Ridge accompanied each other, making it even more powerful. The Jiang Emperor's actions were truly shocking.

"Of course. How many Emperors have there been since ancient times? The founder of the Jiang Clan was world-shaking and represented the extreme realm of the human race."

Ye Fan was lost in thought. Such a character was indeed famous. It was unbelievable that he dared to come to the Absolute Beginning Ancient Mine to refine weapons.

For countless years, the Great Sage Lords and Emperors had entered but never left. Even the Eastern Barren Divine King couldn't extend his life here.

Yet, this Emperor used the absolute beginning forbidden zone as a place to refine weapons. How glorious was this? Unfortunately, time passed like water. They couldn't see such a shocking character.

"Why would he refine a weapon here?"

Old Sabre Honcho said, "Emperor Heng Yu's cultivation is unparalleled. The entire Eastern Barren is under his control. Naturally, he wants to refine weapons in the best place. Even the absolute beginning forbidden zone can't do anything to him."

"As long as he doesn't enter the ancient mine, this forbidden zone can't harm him. Legend has it that he was a person with great luck and obtained a divine phoenix bone. If he wants to refine it into a Peak Dao weapon, he needs a special place. Only Fallen Sun Ridge fits the requirements. "Li Desheng's expression was one of fascination.

"Divine phoenix bone?!" Ye Fan was shocked.

Legend had it that pure-blooded phoenixes were comparable to immortals and didn't exist in this world. How could he not be shocked when Emperor Heng Yu obtained such a thing?

"That is just a rumor. There is no such thing as a Divine Phoenix in this world." The Jade Lake Saintess shook her head and said, "The Heng Yu Heavenly Emperor obtained the Scarlet Phoenix Blood Gold. This kind of divine item is almost as valuable as the Divine Phoenix Bone."

"There is no Godly Phoenix in this world, but there is a divine item like the Phoenix Blood Gold." Yao Guang nodded.

Phoenix Blood Scarlet Gold, something that was rarely seen in thousands of generations. It was brilliant and dazzling, scarlet red like phoenix blood, beautiful to the extreme. There were innately divine phoenix patterns on it.

The value of such a divine item was immeasurable. If it fell into the hands of a Great Emperor, it would definitely become an extreme weapon.

Fallen Sun Ridge was rumored to have been formed when the Son of the Heavenly Sun fell to the ground. It was a land of extreme Yang and extreme hardness.

Phoenix Blood Scarlet Gold, blazing with extreme yang, indestructible, tough to the extreme. If one wanted to turn it into an extreme dao weapon, Fallen Sun Ridge was undoubtedly the best choice.

"Boundless Celestial Being, what does the Scarlet Phoenix Blood Gold look like? Have you seen it before?" Ye Fan asked Yao Xi and the Jade Lake Holy Daughter.

The two stunning beauties looked at each other in dismay. This kind of thing only appeared once in tens of thousands of years. Who would be able to see it? Otherwise, why were there only a few extreme dao weapons in the Eastern Barren?

A Great Emperor could only make one extreme dao weapon in his lifetime. It was not only because it was too difficult, but also because the divine item needed was hard to find. It was difficult to gather such materials even if one searched the entire Eastern Barren.

"Now, only the Jiang Family's direct descendants have seen the Scarlet Phoenix Blood Gold. It has been four to five thousand years since that extreme dao weapon appeared," Yao Guang Saint answered.

"Heng Yu Great Emperor is too terrifying …" Ye Fan could only sigh.

The Scarlet Moon Cave and Fallen Sun Ridge existed side by side. It could be said to be the most dangerous place in the ancient times, but he used it as a sacrifice weapon. It was unimaginable.

It was obvious that Fallen Sun Ridge lacked yang energy and was sucked dry, resulting in an extreme dao weapon forged from the Scarlet Phoenix Blood Gold.

"Heng Yu Great Emperor is so elegant. If I had such cultivation …" Ye Fan was in a daze.

"If Daoist Priest has such divine might, what do you plan to do?" Yao Xi looked at him expectantly.

"Of course … to create an immortal dynasty."

He almost spilled the beans, but he changed his words halfway. In fact, what he really meant was that he wanted to visit the Great Sage's land and take a look at their ancient scriptures. He wanted to test the power of their extreme dao weapons.

"Let's leave quickly. We can't stay here for long." Old Sabre Honcho's expression was solemn.

Ye Fan's group of six moved away from the Scarlet Moon Cave and slightly closer to Fallen Sun Ridge. They prayed in their hearts that no misfortune would befall them. Otherwise, no one would be able to save them.

The cold moonlight elongated their shadows. Li Desheng's Netherworld Eyes emitted an eerie light. He nervously scanned the surroundings, feeling as if something was lurking in the dark.

"Don't be so alarmed. You're making us jumpy too." Old Sabre Honcho glanced at him.

"I really feel that something is wrong. It's like there's a pair of eyes peeking at us in the dark, but we can't see its figure." Li Desheng was restless.

"There's no need to think too much. As long as it doesn't appear, we'll treat it as nothingness." Yao Guang's expression was calm.

The six of them scanned their surroundings as they moved forward. In this evil land where the sun and moon intertwined, one wrong step could cost them their lives.

"Why is the moon so bright tonight? It's not a full moon." Old Sabre Honcho muttered.

"There's indeed something strange. The moonlight is like ripples on water, and the ground is silvery white." Yao Xi also nodded.

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan suddenly stopped and looked up. "Something's wrong!"

"What did you find?" Jade Lake Saintess asked softly.

"It's not the moonlight that's brightening. There's something wrong with the Scarlet Moon Cave." Ye Fan frowned and looked at the blood moon not far away.

Yao Xi was puzzled. "There's nothing wrong with the Scarlet Moon Cave. How could it be the problem?"

"Let's go further away. If there's no other way, we'll enter Fallen Sun Ridge. In any case, it doesn't have enough Yang energy. This Scarlet Moon Cave is very unsettling," Ye Fan said in a deep voice and led the way toward the ruins.

The others guessed that Ye Fan must have learned some profound Genesis Techniques. Perhaps he had obtained some bits and pieces left behind by a Yuan Taoist Master. Seeing him like this, they naturally followed.

Not long after, the sound of sand rising and falling could be heard. The Scarlet Moon Cave glowed red like a surging tide. Blood-colored ripples appeared and swept up some sand.

"This is … the Scarlet Moon Tide!" Ye Fan's expression changed drastically.

He turned into a shadow and rushed toward Fallen Sun Ridge as if avoiding a snake or scorpion.

Seeing this, the other five used their respective techniques and rushed toward the ruins.

Li Desheng was the slowest and lagged behind. The blood-colored tide swept over in an instant. He cried out in fear, "No!"

The blood-colored ripples were very gentle, but they exuded a terrifying aura. Li Desheng's expression changed drastically. He gritted his teeth and summoned a God's Will from his Dao Palace to block behind him.

"Swoosh!"

Without a sound, the God's Will turned into a puddle of blood. He fell into the ruins with a pale face. It was too dangerous. If he hadn't been decisive at the critical moment and abandoned a God's Will, he would have been gone.

"This …" Everyone was shocked.

Ye Fan's expression was solemn. "This is the Scarlet Moon Tide. It gushes out from the Scarlet Moon Cave and can melt all things. It is impossible to resist. The softest can break all laws."

The Scarlet Moon Cave was clearly visible. There was a blood-stained crescent moon on the ground that attracted the moonlight in the sky. The red tide was like water, sweeping through the void.

"We should thank Heng Yu Heavenly Emperor. If he hadn't destroyed Fallen Sun Ridge and caused Yin and Yang to rise, we would have been dead." Ye Fan observed from the ruins.

"Scarlet Moon Cave and under Fallen Sun Ridge, could there be something …" Old Sabre Honcho muttered to himself.

"Old Master, don't talk to yourself. Once you talk, something bad will happen. It will definitely become reality." Li Desheng said with a sobbing tone.

The six of them walked forward. They only had one thought, and that was to leave the forbidden area of absolute beginning. At the same time, they prayed that Heng Yu Heavenly Emperor had dealt with Fallen Sun Ridge.

These ruins had long since decayed. The walls were in ruins, and a light touch would turn them into dust. Even the stone pillars were the same.

In front of them was a peaceful scene. The ruins had turned to dust, and with their minds, they could see a blurry black sun on the ground.

It was only a few hundred zhang in radius, much smaller than the Scarlet Moon Cave. After more than a hundred thousand years, there was still not enough Yang energy.

What surprised them was that there was an ancient building beside the black sun. It was towering and hadn't collapsed. There was an inscribed board with the two words "Heng Yu" engraved on it.

"This is Heng Yu Heavenly Emperor's weapon sacrificial ground." The others were shocked and carefully observed.

This was not an archaic ruin, but an ancient building left behind by Heng Yu Heavenly Emperor. Legend had it that he spent several years alone in the forbidden area of absolute beginning to refine extreme weapons.

This was his residence in the past. Even though it was covered in dust, it still stood tall and had dao rhythms circulating around it.

What kind of spirit was this? When others entered the forbidden area of absolute beginning, they would tremble in fear and even the emperor's corpse would be buried, yet he lived here in seclusion for several years.

The others didn't say anything, but they all made the same choice and walked towards the ancient building. The former residence of Heng Yu Heavenly Emperor might have some unusual things left behind.

This building was built from enormous Origin Stones and was extremely grand. It gave people a feeling that the great dao was like the heavens and unreachable. This was Heng Yu Heavenly Emperor's "dao".

"So many corpses …" The others' expressions changed.

They were blocked by the building just now, so they couldn't see it. Now that they got closer, they discovered that on the other side of the ancient building, there were corpses piled up into a small mountain.

Even though more than a hundred thousand years had passed, these bones were still flickering with specks of light. There were more than a hundred of them, and most of them were humanoid, but they clearly weren't humans.

"These bones are all shining, so one can imagine how terrifying their strength was. Heng Yu Heavenly Emperor was too terrifying, worthy of being one of the strongest humans since ancient times."

He alone killed so many terrifying creatures. If news of this got out, it would definitely shake the world. Judging from these corpses, they were definitely peak existences.

"This …"

The six of them were all stunned. Running into Origin Ancient Mine to unleash a massacre, only an ancient great emperor would dare do this!

"Heng Yu Heavenly Emperor is too shocking!"

"Slaughtering here, over a hundred in one go, these are all peak experts! Even their bones are flickering!"

"Everything was for the sake of an extreme dao weapon …" Old Sabre Honcho sighed.

The ancient great emperors were extremely talented. They established ancient scriptures that had been passed down to this day, bringing prosperity to several Great Sage's lands.

Apart from this, every single great emperor would think of ways to leave behind an extreme dao weapon. It was because this was equivalent to an extension of their life, able to display their unmatched divine might.

From a certain perspective, extreme dao weapons were even more important than ancient scriptures!

"For the sake of refining 'phoenix blood gold' into an extreme dao weapon, Heng Yu Heavenly Emperor truly displayed his emperor's might!" Yao Guang's holy child sighed with emotion. His current life's goal was to become a great emperor.

"What kind of weapon was refined from phoenix blood gold?" Ye Fan asked. He didn't know much about Jiang Family's matters.

"Divine Sun Furnace!" Jade Lake holy girl replied.

"What?!" Ye Fan was shocked.

"Don't tell me you're thinking about that broken furnace of yours?" Old Sabre Honcho took a puff of his pipe.

Ye Fan smiled embarrassedly and took out the Li Fire Divine Furnace. Although the one inch tall furnace was sparkling and translucent, it was crooked like a squashed persimmon.

Although it had recovered a lot, it was still full of potholes. It hadn't completely recovered.

"Don't think too much about it. How could Jiang Family's extreme dao weapon be lost outside? Besides, apart from being a bit sturdy, there's nothing special about this broken furnace." Old Sabre Honcho said.

"The Divine Sun Furnace hasn't appeared for four or five thousand years, the world has almost forgotten its appearance." Yao Guang's holy child said.

"How frightening is an extreme dao weapon?" Ye Fan asked.

"Unimaginably frightening. The stronger the caster's divine power, the greater the power they can display. At the peak, they can display the supreme divine might of a great emperor." Old Sabre Honcho answered.

They didn't stay here. While talking, they entered the ancient building to see if Heng Yu Heavenly Emperor had left anything behind.

Ye Fan was shocked. Didn't that represent the strongest divine might of the human race?! It could easily sweep the world and meet no worthy opponents.

"Unfortunately, an extreme dao weapon consumes too much divine power. Ordinary people can't use it." Jade Lake's holy girl shook her head and said, "After all, it's an exclusive weapon of the Desolation Heavenly Emperor."

"If someone of the same level wields an extreme dao weapon, what kind of effect would it have?"

Yao Guang's holy child smiled and said, "Just take the Divine Sun Furnace as an example. In the past, Divine King Jiang Taixu fought against a peerless figure of the Central Prefecture who was not weaker than him. Once the Divine Sun Furnace appeared, his opponent was annihilated."

"That's too frightening …" Li Desheng felt a chill down his spine.

"The Divine King of the Eastern Wasteland is too far away from us. It's impossible to guess. Just take the Great Sage Lords as an example. If they use an extreme dao weapon, they can easily kill an invincible almighty," Jade Lake's holy girl answered.

"Unfortunately, the extreme dao weapons of your Great Sage Lands can't be used. They're all used to suppress the so-called 'resources'." Old Sabre Honcho shook his head.

"You know about this …" Yao Guang's holy child's eyes flashed with a golden light.

Yao Xi changed the topic and said, "The seventh bandit, Tu Tian, and the Green Flood Dragon King joined hands and took out a weapon of the Extreme Path, almost causing our Yao Guang's Grand Elders to suffer grievances. Moreover, that wasn't a complete weapon, so the might of the Extreme Path was evident."

Ye Fan knew about it. He had seen it with his own eyes. After the Peacock King stopped the Yao Guang Holy Lord, Tu Tian and the Green Flood Dragon King joined hands and used an earthen jar. It almost killed the Yao Guang Holy Land's old antiques.

"That's an ancient demonic jar — Devouring Heaven. Unfortunately, it lacks a lid and can't display the extreme dao's power." Old Sabre Honcho shook his head.

At this time, they had already entered the ancient building. The main hall was very old. It was tall and spacious, giving off a feeling of endless Dao.

There were many ashes on the ground. It was pitch-black. They moved separately and began to search.

Ye Fan used the observation method and looked around the main hall. Suddenly, he was shaken and his heart was beating wildly.

The observation method could clearly understand the great secrets of the mountains and rivers. It could also find the source and distinguish objects.

At this moment, he felt his eyes burning. There was a dazzling object that was even more resplendent than a real sun. He couldn't look straight at it.

"Could it be the divine source?" Ye Fan was so excited that he couldn't control himself.

Beside the ashes, there was a pitch-black stone. It was only the size of a fist. The divine light was so dazzling that it made his eyes tear up.

Ye Fan quickly put away the observation method. Otherwise, he was worried that this divine object would burn his eyes blind.

This origin stone was extremely ordinary. If he didn't use the observation method to examine it, he wouldn't be able to see anything.

"This is simply a divine sun. It's so resplendent that it's unbearable. It must be the divine source!"

Ye Fan walked over and wanted to pick up the black stone. However, he was shocked. He actually didn't pick it up the first time.

"Clang!"

The black stone fell to the ground, causing the entire hall to tremble.

This … was only the size of a fist, yet it weighed over ten thousand jin!

Everyone looked over. The black stone surface was shaken, and a bit of it actually peeled off. A dazzling scarlet light shot out. It was brilliant like a rainbow and extremely dazzling. There was no way to look at it directly.

"Phoenix blood scarlet gold!"

"Heavens, it really is phoenix blood scarlet gold!"

Several people cried out in alarm at the same time.

Ye Fan exerted force, grabbing the black stone in one go. He took a few steps back. The stone surface wasn't the divine source, but rather the phoenix blood scarlet gold that only appeared once in a thousand generations!
