Unparalleled Figures Hidden in the River of History

"It just so happens that there are no rivals left in this world. I feel very uncomfortable wasting time here. Since there is a new challenge, let's take it!"

Wang Mingyuan stood atop the ancient star of creation, surrounded by chaotic energy, his eyes as deep and unfathomable as an abyss.

He has made his decision to travel to the strange world to rescue the Great Emperor Wushi.

However, he did not set off immediately.

Although the Great Emperor Wushi is dangerous, since the other party is fishing, there shouldn't be too much of a problem for now.

The Emperor, the Undying Emperor, and the Heaven-Mending Immortal—these three joined forces to set a trap, hoping to lure him into it. Therefore, the Great Emperor Wushi should not perish directly before they achieve their goal.

The other party will likely maintain this dangerous state, wearing down Wang Mingyuan and forcing him to enter the strange world as soon as possible.

After all, from the other party's perspective, Wang Mingyuan was powerful, but not to an exaggerated degree. At most, he was just a Chaos Body Emperor.

They are very powerful, but even the Emperor and the Undying Emperor have seen such figures before.

In the mythological era, wasn't there a chaotic being who, before even attaining enlightenment, nearly killed the Boundless Heavenly Venerable at his peak?
Very powerful, very special. Once you become an emperor, you will be at the level of a Heavenly Emperor, but that's about it.

Compared to these ancient relics that have accumulated over hundreds of thousands or even millions of years, they still fall short.

However, it's best not to let such a person grow up, otherwise they will become a very dangerous opponent.

Therefore, this approach is appropriate now.

Now that it's confirmed that Wang Mingyuan has a connection with Emperor Wushi, and that their relationship seems to be fairly good, then let's put some pressure on Wang Mingyuan.

If Wang Mingyuan continues to push forward with this state of mind and talent, especially with the boldness and methods of releasing the Great Dao Scroll, achieving the status of a Mortal Immortal is practically a certainty.

First, eliminate him, then plunder all his achievements for your own use.

This strategy is very likely a consensus reached tacitly between the Immortal Emperor and the Emperor.

Although the Immortal Emperor may not even know of the Emperor's existence, these two ancient beings who survived from the mythological era naturally share a common interest in dealing with newcomers.

Wang Mingyuan saw through all of this.

But he was not afraid.

He decided to go to the strange world, but not impulsively rush there immediately.

He needs to prepare, to make arrangements, and to ensure that the heavens and earth remain stable after he leaves.

Moreover, Emperor Wushi was no ordinary person, and Wang Mingyuan was confident in him.

Emperor Wushi would not die so easily.

So he convened another unique meeting on the ancient star of creation.

Within the Dao Palace, all the powerful figures gathered.

Lingbao Tianzun, Yan Di, Huang Di, Gai Jiuyou, Qilin Guhuang, Wanlong Huang, Chuanying, Ning Fei... all these beings who stand at the pinnacle of humanity are present.

Young prodigies such as Ye Fan, Xia Jiuyou, Ji Zi, the Holy Prince, and Ye Yishui were also prominently featured.

As the being with the closest relationship to the Great Emperor Wushi, the Black Emperor was also invited to attend the meeting.

Although his current cultivation level is at the peak of the Great Sage realm and has touched the Quasi-Emperor realm, making him one of the weakest among those present, his connection with the Great Emperor Wushi has earned him a place in this gathering.

Wang Mingyuan looked around at everyone and spoke in a deep voice.

"A major problem has arisen in the strange world; the Great Emperor Wushi may perish."

I decided to go and help him.

After he finished speaking, the Dao Palace fell silent.

Before anyone else could react, Black King immediately lost his temper!
"what?!"

Black King suddenly stood up, his dog eyes wide open and his fur standing on end.

His greatest obsession over the years has been the Great Emperor Wushi.

He followed the Great Emperor Wushi for many years and witnessed firsthand the invincible being's sweeping glory across the world.

After the Great Emperor Wushi entered the strange world, the Black Emperor waited, searched, and hoped.

He implicitly acknowledged that the Great Emperor Wushi was dead.

Because from ancient times to the present, it seems that no ancient emperor or great ruler has survived; they have all died.

Those supreme beings in the forbidden zone survived by severing their own lives; they are not truly alive.

Knowing that the Great Emperor Wushi is still alive is, of course, a pleasant surprise.

But the news I heard was that the Great Emperor Wushi was about to die, which drove me crazy.

"Woof woof! How is that possible!"

Black Emperor's voice trembled, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was on the verge of madness.

"The Great Emperor is invincible, how could he possibly be critically injured and on the verge of death? Who in the world can rival him?!"

"Who did this? I'm going to kill him!"

He unleashed a violent aura, and the pressure of a quasi-emperor spread out, causing the entire Dao Palace to rumble.

He was really anxious, so anxious that he lost his mind.

Wang Mingyuan glanced at him calmly.

That glance contained no oppressive force, no supernatural power; it was just a simple glance.

But Black Emperor felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over him from head to toe, suppressing all his mania, anger, and murderous intent.

He shuddered and came to his senses.

"Sit down." Wang Mingyuan's voice was calm, yet brooked no argument.

Black Emperor gritted his teeth and finally sat back down. His body was still trembling slightly, but he was no longer agitated.

He knew that among everyone present, only Wang Mingyuan had the ability to save Emperor Wushi.

No one else is qualified.

Wang Mingyuan continued, "In the strange world, the Great Emperor Wushi was severely injured by the combined forces of the Undying Emperor and the True Immortal of Mending Heaven."

Moreover, there are subtle traces and shadows of a third party behind this.

These words shocked everyone present.

Immortal emperor?

This name holds a supreme position among all the ancient races.

He was the emperor revered by all races in ancient times, and the first emperor of the ancient era.

At the end of the mythological era and the beginning of the primordial era, the Immortal Emperor appeared out of nowhere, proving himself as an emperor with the body of a pure-blooded phoenix and ruling the world.

His achievements were extraordinary, and more importantly, he lived too long.

From the end of the mythological era to the ancient era, then to the primitive era, and now to the post-primitive era.

Every era lasts for millions of years.

An existence that has lived for over two million years—this is beyond everyone's imagination.

In normal circumstances, no one can live that long.

Only someone who has severed themselves could do so, but such a person cannot be found within the restricted area.

Wang Mingyuan had previously subtly promoted this in Baiyujing.

The Immortal Emperor never severed his own life or sealed himself away.

He also ambushed the aging Fighting Saint Emperor and successfully ambushed the Supreme Emperor...

All these circumstances indicate that this being was truly extraordinary, having lived for millions of years.

Even a pig that has lived for over a million years is extremely terrifying, let alone a former emperor who once ruled the world.

The Immortal Who Mending the Heavens is equally terrifying.

That was the supreme being in the Heaven-Mending Realm, who commanded many supreme beings and had once fought against the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths—a true immortal living in the mortal world.

Facing two such opponents at the same time, just learning about their backgrounds is enough to send chills down one's spine.

The Holy Prince's eyes widened in astonishment.

His father was the Fighting Saint Emperor, the last emperor of the ancient era, who was ambushed by the Immortal Emperor in his later years, leading to his premature death.

The Holy Prince's hatred for the Immortal Emperor was deeper than anyone else's.

But he also knew that the Immortal Emperor's power far exceeded his imagination.

Upon hearing that the Immortal Emperor was still alive and was an enemy of the Great Emperor Wushi in a strange world, the Holy Prince clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

Wang Mingyuan remained calm and continued, "Based on my speculation, there should be another person behind this."

Because the Immortal Emperor didn't just go to the Strange World recently; he had been there for over a hundred years.

The Great Emperor Wushi has clashed with these two more times than once or twice, and his recent sudden severe injury must have involved unexpected factors.

Wang Mingyuan did not hide this speculation.

Everyone remained silent.

The atmosphere inside the Dao Palace was extremely heavy.

After a long while, Lingbao Tianzun spoke.

"Fellow Daoist, what do you plan to do?"

He was saved by Wang Mingyuan and had absolute trust in Wang Mingyuan.

But he also knew that the strange world was not a benevolent place; there were true immortals, an immortal emperor who had lived for two million years, and a third party hiding in the shadows.

Wang Mingyuan's trip there is likely to end badly.

He was even psychologically reluctant to let Wang Mingyuan go.

He preferred that Wang Mingyuan remain in this world, complete his rebirth, and gradually become an immortal.

It was one thing for others not to know the path before, but now most of the methods for those who have achieved the status of Great Emperor and continue to undergo Nirvana were summarized by Wang Mingyuan.

With such resources at his disposal, others might not be able to succeed on this path, but Wang Mingyuan is certain to succeed.

Rather than taking risks now, which have a high probability of leading to death, it's better to proceed steadily, step by step, to reach the top, and then sweep away everything.

Wang Mingyuan said calmly, "I have made up my mind to go to the strange world and save the Great Emperor Wushi." "But before I leave, there are some things that need to be arranged."

His gaze swept over the crowd, and he said in a deep voice, "The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths cannot be thrown into chaos because of my departure."

Someone needs to be here to oversee things, someone needs to protect them.

Lingbao Tianzun stood up, and the four killing swords hummed.

"Rest assured, fellow Daoist, I will guard the heavens and earth while you are away."

Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang also stood up: "We will also do our utmost to protect the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."

Gai Jiuyou, Qilin Ancient Emperor, Wanlong Emperor, and others all expressed their willingness to protect this world while Wang Mingyuan was away.

Wang Mingyuan nodded and looked at Ye Fan.

Ye Fan stood up, his holy body radiating golden light, his aura vast as the sea.

"What are your orders, Heavenly Emperor?"

Wang Mingyuan looked at him with deep eyes.

No one else noticed, but Wang Mingyuan did.

Among the most outstanding talents of the golden generation present, Ye Fan has gone the furthest.

He was not only flawless in blood, but also comparable to the great emperors of his time.

They are even capable of attempting to attain enlightenment and become a Great Emperor.

In fact, over the years, there have always been top geniuses in the entire universe trying to achieve this, and Ye Fan has gone the furthest among them.

If Ye Fan becomes a Great Emperor, he will also directly become a Heavenly Emperor-level figure.

Among the many ancient emperors and great emperors present, only Lingbao Tianzun has now reached this realm.

It can be said that once Ye Fan takes this step, he will immediately become a top-tier figure.

Among the golden generation, Ye Fan was the most outstanding one.

At the same time, Ye Fan also has Ye Yishui behind him. With the innate holy body and Dao embryo, no matter whether anyone before him becomes an emperor, he can smoothly become an emperor.

Achieving the title of Great Emperor directly equates to the Heavenly Emperor level.

"You are the most likely successor to me, so you must work hard after I leave!"

Ye Fan clasped his hands in silence, then walked closer to Wang Mingyuan and silently punched him in the chest.

"I will!"

"It's alright, even if you can't, your son and daughter can!"

The moment those words were spoken, the previously serious atmosphere immediately relaxed, and some people around couldn't help but laugh.

After all, Ye Fan has not only had Ye Yishui with him over the years, but also had a child with the Ji family.

The descendants born to Ji Ziyue possess the Primordial Spirit Saint Body, an extremely terrifying physique, and are known as near-immortals.

It can only be said that the Ancient Sacred Body is also an all-purpose tool.

When combined with any constitution, the offspring will be terrifyingly strong.

Wang Mingyuan then looked at Xia Jiuyou, Ji Zi, the Holy Prince, Ye Yishui, and others.

"You are the same. This era is your opportunity."

After the two realms merged, the rules of heaven and earth became more perfect, and becoming an emperor was no longer a pipe dream.

"The coexistence of multiple emperors isn't too difficult. With the several Great Dao Scrolls I've published, coupled with your innate comprehension and talent, taking a few more steps forward on this path shouldn't be a big problem."

"I hope that when I return from this strange world, you will all be emperors."

Everyone clasped their hands in unison: "We will certainly live up to the Heavenly Emperor's expectations!"

Wang Mingyuan finally looked at the Black Emperor.

Black King's eyes were red-rimmed, and his voice was hoarse.

"Heavenly Emperor, the Great Emperor... is he really still alive?"

Wang Mingyuan nodded: "He's alive, and thriving, though he's seriously injured."

“I will go and rescue him and bring him back.”

Black Emperor's tears finally flowed.

He was a dog, but he was more loyal and devoted than many others. The Great Emperor Wushi was the most important person in his life, someone he was willing to follow with his life.

"Heavenly Emperor, I beg you, you must save the Great Emperor!"

Black Emperor knelt on the ground, his voice choked with sobs.

"My life now belongs to the Heavenly Emperor!"

Wang Mingyuan waved his hand: "I don't want your life."

"Your living well is the greatest reward you can give to the Great Emperor Wushi."

He stood up, and chaotic energy surged forth.

"The meeting is over. After I leave, everything will continue as usual."

"Everyone, wait for me to come back."

The brief meeting ended just like that.

Wang Mingyuan remained alone in the Taoist temple, sitting cross-legged on a futon.

Above his head, the magnificent Xuanhuang Pagoda of Heaven and Earth slowly rotated, with nine-colored divine light descending.

Within his body, chaotic energy surged, and various magical techniques and laws intertwined.

He was making final preparations.

Going to a strange world is no small matter. There are three immortal beings in the mortal realm, each an ancient relic that has lived for hundreds of thousands or even millions of years, and each possessing earth-shattering abilities.

Although Wang Mingyuan is confident, he is never arrogant.

He needs to enter the strange world in his strongest form and needs to be fully prepared.

The Heaven and Earth Exquisite Xuanhuang Pagoda has become a celestial artifact; it is one of his trump cards.

His chaotic body has already undergone three rebirths; this is his second trump card.

He possesses the inheritance of the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King, the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques, the Grass Character Sword Manual... This is his third trump card.

But that's not enough.

Wang Mingyuan closed his eyes, his consciousness sank into his sea of ​​consciousness, and began to deduce the final step of the Battle Immortal Realm.

He had already touched the door.

Once you push him aside, he becomes a War Immortal.

Prove the Dao through battle, and become an immortal through killing.

The first being in history to directly transform into a War Immortal in the mortal world.

"Almost there."

Wang Mingyuan muttered to himself.

"We still need a little more accumulation, and we still need a little more opportunity."

"The strange world may be the key to that opportunity."

He opened his eyes, his gaze sharp as lightning.

"Emperor, Undying Emperor, Heaven-Mending Immortal, you want to kill me?"

"Then let's go."

"Let's see if you kill me, or if I step on your corpses to ascend to the realm of the War Immortal."

Wang Mingyuan stood up, took a step, and disappeared into the Dao Palace.

The next moment, he appeared at the summit of the Ancient Star of Creation.

Beneath the starry sky, the figure of the Chaos Emperor stood tall and straight like a pine tree.

His gaze was fixed on the direction of the strange world.

There, his enemies reside.

There, too, lay his opportunity.

"Emperor Wushi, wait for me."

Wang Mingyuan said in a low voice.

"I am coming."

Chaos surged, and nine-colored divine light soared into the sky.

The entire starry sky trembled.

Everyone knew that the Chaos Emperor was leaving.

He was going to a strange world to rescue the Great Emperor Wushi and to confront the three immortals of the mortal realm.

This is an unprecedented war.

A great battle that will determine the fate of the nine heavens and ten earths.

Under the starry sky, many supreme figures silently gazed in that direction.

At the same time, Ye Fan's golden aura was so intense it seemed to overwhelm the heavens, and he was extremely nervous because Wang Mingyuan had given him some private instructions before leaving.

Tell him the oldest and most special secret.

Even with his current cultivation level and strength, he still felt some pressure.

"Fellow villager, you're putting me a little too much importance on this!"

In the blink of an eye, Wang Mingyuan unleashed a punch that pierced through the heavens and earth, creating a channel filled with endless chaotic energy.

He glanced back at the heavens and the earth, then took a step and vanished. (End of Chapter)
