No one knew what era the Undying Heavenly Emperor was born in, because he was already a legend during the archaic era, the only deity in the hearts of all races.
What kind of people would his subordinates be? Just thinking about it made one's scalp go numb. They were divine generals that descended from the ancient heavens, yet the three of them were fighting against such an existence!
"Screw you, do you really think we are still in the legendary era? So many years have already passed, your bones should have long rotted away. So what if the divine patterns carved by the Undying Heavenly Emperor are so amazing? Even if you meet the weapon of a vicious great emperor, you will still be turned into dregs! "Duan De spoke viciously. One of his arms was torn off, dripping with blood. It was a tragic sight.
The old blind man was even more miserable. Just now, he bore the brunt of the attack, and a black claw gouged out a large hole in his chest. The hole went straight through, almost splitting him into pieces.
The ancient Heaven Devouring Devil Jar trembled, and the void immediately caved in. A black hole appeared, devouring black light and absorbing spiritual essence from all directions. Then, it aimed at the creature fighting against Ye Fan.
On the battlefield, two figures fiercely clashed like two streaks of lightning. They were so fast that others couldn't see them clearly. They were ferocious and tyrannical, powerful and terrifying.
Ye Fan was extremely shocked. Today, he entered a divine shell, yet he didn't immediately shatter the other party. One could see just how powerful that creature's physical body was.
"Worthy of being a subordinate of the archaic Heavenly Emperor, truly like a divine general descending into this world!" This was Ye Fan's evaluation.
The only thing that made him feel at ease was that the one fighting against him had lost all magical force and only had a withered body to use. Just like him, he could only fight with his physical body.
This withered body was pitch-black and withered. A dragon, an Hou, a human, and a phoenix stood side by side in a row. It was indescribably strange, and on every single head was a pair of cold and gloomy eyes.
A black divine ring revolved around it. This was what it relied on the most, able to neutralize fifty percent of Ye Fan's power. Otherwise, it would still be inferior to the ancient divine shell and would be suppressed.
Hong!
The Heaven Devouring Devil Jar trembled, and the aura of an ancient great emperor pervaded the air. This creature released a mournful cry that was as sinister as a malicious spirit. This type of sound made one's hair stand on end.
It jumped up and turned into a streak of black light before leaving. How tyrannical was the Heaven Devouring Devil Jar? It was an Extreme Emperor Armament. Even though it had yet to awaken, the aura it gave off was enough to intimidate everyone.
"Still want to leave?" Ye Fan rushed over, piercing through his divine ring and twisting one of his arms. In the end, his physical body was superior to his opponent's.
"Crack!"
The arm that was as black as dry firewood was broken. It was as heavy as if it was forged from divine gold. An ordinary cultivator wouldn't be able to pick it up.
A mournful cry sounded. This creature rushed into the sky, feeling extreme fear towards the Heaven Devouring Devil Jar. It wanted to break free and escape.
However, his movements were too great. He rushed in front of Wu Shi's dao platform. Normally, this was a restricted area. Without a supreme emperor jade in hand, all creatures had to stop here, or else they would inevitably die.
Boom!
A waterfall of primal chaos descended, interweaving with an expanse of great dao patterns. It crushed him into powder on the spot, turning him into an expanse of black ashes that scattered in this place.
The three of them were stupefied. Great Emperor Wu Shi's aura devoured mountains and rivers, his divine might unrivalled. The dao patterns here were unimaginably powerful, yet this body was destroyed just like that. There was no suspense at all.
Ye Fan's entire body was drenched in cold sweat. Even his divine shell was not enough. Even after reaching the saint realm, he couldn't resist a strand of dao patterns here. The two words Wu Shi could indeed crush the ages.
The blind old man and Duan De both released muffled groans. Black light was invading their bodies, entering their flesh and blood. It was difficult to remove. Their entire bodies became pitch-black, and the situation was far from good.
"I've been hunting geese my entire life, but in the end, I've been caught in the eye. I've finally encountered a fierce character in the tomb. This is an archaic corpse poison, and it's extremely difficult to remove it." Duan De's entire body was drenched in cold sweat.
The blind old man's face was also pitch-black. Even a powerful person like him couldn't resist it. His body was almost dried up, occupied by a decaying aura.
"Isn't there still the Medicine King?" Ye Fan pried open the pitch-black arm that he had torn off and took out a fragrant old medicine. It emitted a hazy light.
"I really can't accept this. It wasn't easy to obtain a rare medicine king, yet I have to eat it now." Duan De grimaced in pain.
"If you don't want to eat it, then give it all to me." The blind old man bit off half of the medicine with a few chomps. He choked until his eyes rolled back, and he forcefully swallowed it down.
"Motherf * cker, you old thing, you're like a cow chewing on a peony. You're recklessly wasting natural resources." Fatty Duan was anxious. He did everything he could to snatch the other half, and he also bit it down in a few bites.
It had to be said that the rare medicine king had a divine effect. Not long after entering their stomachs, it turned into a divine liquid, causing their bodies to blossom with dazzling divine splendor. It was as if two small suns were burning, quickly evaporating the black gas on their bodies.
The two's bones continuously crackled. Their bodies were quickly recovering, flickering with precious light. At the same time, their bodies became even more youthful and full of vitality.
"Medicine king ah, one stalk in our hands is equivalent to having another life. We have to think of a way to pick all of the stalks on the dao platform." Duan De was about to drool.
The blind old man frowned and said, "Something isn't right. Just now, that creature's vitality was clearly extinguished, like a ghost corpse. Even the divine medicine is useless for him, and there is no way for him to recover his vitality. However, why is he fighting over it so recklessly, not hesitating to step foot into this forbidden land?"
"Could it be that he wants to give it to an even more powerful ancient lifeform that is still alive?" Ye Fan said.
When these words were spoken, the three of them all broke out into a cold shiver. They deeply felt the power of that nine-headed creature. It almost made Duan De and the others die. Was there still a living existence?
After a period of silence, they could only hold the Heaven Devouring Evil Jar, ready to activate it at any time to suppress and kill all creatures. As long as they felt that something wasn't right, they would kill it first!
The ancient tomb was tall, and endless chaotic energy poured down. It was difficult to advance, and climbing up was extremely difficult. There was even less of a need to talk about flying. The space in front of the dao platform was restricted.
"No matter what, I have to go up and get to the bottom of this. Otherwise, I won't be satisfied!" Ye Fan said in a low voice.
The three of them walked around the altar and observed it carefully. They wanted to see where was the most suitable place to go up. When they arrived in another direction, there was a blazing expanse. There was a pile of divine source blocks in front of them, and the brilliance was dazzling.
"A living creature has broken free. It … shouldn't be nearby, right?"
"It's so close to the dao platform …"
"Yi, there are words here."
In front of the cracked divine source, they discovered a line of ancient words carved on the stone wall: Gu Tianshu is willing to guard Great Emperor Wu Shi's tomb for the rest of his life.
"Gu Tianshu … Isn't this an unrivaled saint from seventy to eighty thousand years ago?!" The blind old man was shocked. He had some understanding of some of the powerful figures in the history of the north.
"It's him …" Ye Fan was stupefied. Back then, when he entered Mount Purple for the first time, he discovered several dozen names at the entrance. Among them, the strongest was Gu Tianshu, and his imprint was even greater than Divine King Jiang Taixu's.
Gu Tianshu, an ancient saint, found this place and was willing to guard Wu Shi's tomb. This was truly shocking.
"There are traces of battle here!" Duan De shouted. The imprints were very clear. The ripples from the battle struck the stone wall, but they still hadn't dispersed. It was shocking.
After the three of them observed, their expressions all changed. This was a battle between saints, and it actually happened here. It was unimaginable.
"Looking at these traces, it should have happened two thousand years ago." The blind old man stroked the stone wall and came to this conclusion.
"Today, I fought with the Sacred Battle Ape and lost. Since he came with the emperor jade, I allowed him to pick three medicine kings and leave." It was still Gu Tianshu's engravings, and they clearly appeared on the stone wall.
The three of them were all shocked. They looked at each other and paled. These words revealed too much.
"Two thousand years ago, Gu Tianshu was still alive. He lived until now. If news of this gets out, it will definitely shock the world!"
"The Sacred Battle Ape must be the Western Desert's Victorious Fighting Buddha. He actually entered the Ancient Emperor Mountain!"
What exactly happened? An ancient saint from seventy to eighty thousand years ago, Gu Tianshu, was still alive now. The Divine Origin Liquid he used to seal himself could only be refined by great ancient emperors. Could it be that Wu Shi was still alive?
However, why did he say that he was willing to guard Wu Shi's tomb for the rest of his life? Was the great emperor on the dao platform really dead?
The Victorious Fighting Buddha on Mount Meru had come here before. This was beyond their expectations. That was the Great Sage, and his magic power was monstrous!
At the same time, Ye Fan finally understood why the large black dog had said many times that he hated monkeys the most. Two thousand years ago, the Victorious Fighting Buddha had come here and most likely dealt with him.
After a careful search, there were no more traces. Gu Tianshu had long disappeared, and his whereabouts were unknown.
Boom!
The endless waterfall of chaos cascaded down. All of the bones in Ye Fan's body creaked. He climbed up with difficulty, wanting to ascend the dao platform.
This place formed a small world, and the dao platform seemed to rise into the Nine Heavens, lofty and majestic.
The blind old man and Duan De were in the golden sacred region that Ye Fan had opened up, and they worked together to activate the Heaven Swallowing Demon Jar, blocking the chaotic waterfall and the patterns of great dao.
Otherwise, even someone as powerful as the Saint Shell would be crushed into a bloody pulp. This was not a place that humans could set foot in at all. It could kill ancient saints!
Boom!
The surroundings were a vast expanse of whiteness, and chaos surged like a magnificent army charging over, pressing down on Ye Fan so much that it was difficult for him to move. He was almost unable to hold on any longer.
What was even more terrifying was that great emperor formation patterns had appeared, and they were densely imprinted in the void like a spider web, cutting off the path ahead.
If not for the Heaven Swallowing Demon Jar, even if a saint came, he would have died dozens or hundreds of times. This was a true flawless emperor pattern, the Wu Shi Killing Formation!
Apart from the ancient great emperors themselves, their weapons and formation patterns were the strongest, and they were what the later generations wanted the most. Emperor weapons and emperor patterns were on par, and if one could comprehend a corner, they could run amok in the world.
And now, with the appearance of the Wu Shi dao pattern, even the Great Sage of the human race would have to die with a grievance. There was no suspense at all.
It had to be said that the ruthless great emperor looked down on the past, present, and future. Without the three of them activating it, the devil jar had already sounded on its own, resisting the formation that could kill the ancient deities.
"No, if this continues, we will still die!" the blind old man said.
The Heaven Swallowing Demon Jar shocked the past and present, and it was impossible for it to be destroyed by the Wu Shi dao pattern. However, when the two clashed, it was not something they could withstand.
Even if the devil jar protected them, it would not work. Two ancient great emperors were indirectly fighting across time and space, and no one could withstand the fluctuations produced!
Ye Fan placed all six emperor jades on top of his head, but it still could not calm the Wu Shi formation. Now, with every step up, the power would double.
"There are still 81 steps, and we can at most go up three more steps. This … is not something that can be resisted by humans. How powerful is the ancient emperor?!"
They were close to despair. The flawless formation pattern had only opened up a corner, and even using the Heaven Swallowing Demon Jar to open up a path wasn't enough. If they persisted, they would be killed alive.
"The blind old man kowtows to Great Emperor Wu Shi. Now that the human race is facing a great calamity, please wake up and save the human race, quell the chaos, and suppress the myriad races." The blind old man knelt down seriously.
Ye Fan held the snow-white skull in his palm, then took out the crescent jade pendant, and said, "I seek an audience with Great Emperor Wu Shi."
"Rumble!"
Then, something shocking happened. The huge waterfall of chaos retreated, and the dense Dao patterns also became blurry.
"It's … because of the crescent jade pendant!" Duan De exclaimed.
Finally, they climbed up step by step and came to the dao platform. In the center of the dao platform, there was a majestic figure sitting with his back facing them. His thick black hair cascaded down like a waterfall.
From being the enemy of the entire world, to the entire world being silent! The sorrow of the ancient great emperors was the loneliness of the ages, and the loneliness of a lifetime.
The female sage's skull in Ye Fan's hand was crystal white, and a strange power flowed through it. At this moment, the Moonfall sank and landed on the skull, and a faint but emotional wave spread out.
"I … just want to follow your footsteps, even if I can only look at you from behind for the rest of my life."
The weak spiritual imprint trembled slightly. The female sage had passed away for tens of thousands of years, but this imprint was still unwilling to dissipate. This was the wish that she held onto until her death.
