Reborn Shang Zhou, angry at the sage Nuwa at the beginning

Chapter 2302

One was black and traceless, while the other burned with golden flames, like dancing sparks, and landed directly in Chu Fan's hand.

The black communication talisman was written in blood: "Darkness has not yet been extinguished, chaos is about to awaken, and a mystery lies hidden beneath Zhenxuan Mountain."

On the golden communication talisman was a line of ancient and vigorous seal script, carrying the scorching aura of a human emperor:
"Chu Fan, my disciple, hurry to the ancient tomb in Tangyin. The primordial chaos has awakened, and only the power of you and me, the human emperors, can suppress it—Emperor Xin."

"Emperor Xin!"

Chu Fan's pupils contracted sharply. The golden communication talisman in his palm was scorching hot, and the pure power of the Human Emperor resonated with the humanistic essence within him.

"Master... he's still alive!"

then,

When Chu Fan first learned the power of humanity, he was in a secret chamber on Zhenxuan Mountain.

Having encountered the remnant soul of Emperor Xin, they learned that this ancient human emperor did not perish in the Battle of Muye, but rather died suppressing the disturbances of the primordial chaos.
Sacrificing oneself to the battle,

He sealed his remnant soul, along with a portion of the Human Emperor's power, in the Tangyin Ancient Mausoleum, guarding the first line of defense of the Zhenxuan Mountain seal.

Mo Ying took the black communication talisman, and lightly touched it with the shadow power swirling around his fingertips, but was instantly repelled by a strange force:

"This power is neither evil nor the power of any race from the Three Realms; rather, it seems to be a forgotten ancient power. And Lord Di Xin's communication talisman..."

He looked at the golden talisman with awe in his eyes, "The Emperor's Fire is pure and immaculate, and is by no means a forgery."

Xuanzang sat cross-legged, silently reciting scriptures, golden Buddhist power enveloping the two communication talismans.
After a moment, he said, "The power of the black talisman is of the same origin as chaos but is purer. Buddhist power cannot purify it, but Lord Di Xin's power as the human emperor can suppress this strange aura, which shows that his cultivation has already surpassed that of the ancient times."

Shui Ling frowned and said, "The foot of Zhenxuan Mountain and the Tangyin Ancient Mausoleum are thousands of miles apart. Why would Lord Di Xin send us to the ancient mausoleum? Is there a connection between the two secret realms?"

Chu Fan gripped the two communication talismans tightly, a resolute glint in his eyes: "Master would never speak without reason. Mo Ying, you infiltrate the underground of Zhenxuan Mountain to investigate. Qing Yao and Zi Han, come with me to Tangyin Ancient Mausoleum to pay our respects to Master. Xuan Zang and Shui Ling, stay on the mountaintop. If there is any unusual activity, immediately send a message using the Heart-to-Heart Seal!"

"As ordered!"

Everyone responded in unison and immediately split up to take action.

Located in the heart of the Central Plains, buried deep beneath the Taihang Mountains, the Tangyin Ancient Mausoleum is the core of the imperial mausoleums of the ancient Shang Dynasty.

The moment Chu Fan and his companions stepped into the ancient mausoleum after passing through layers of spatial and temporal barriers, they were immediately enveloped by the rich aura of the Human Emperor.

The stone walls on both sides of the mausoleum path are covered with sacrificial runes from the Yin and Shang dynasties, and eternally burning bronze torches illuminate the darkness ahead.

In the tomb chamber at the end,

A figure dressed in a black imperial robe with dragon patterns sat cross-legged, surrounded by golden imperial flames, within which the faint phantoms of countless common people could be seen.

It was Emperor Xin.

His hair and beard were all white, but his face was ruddy. His eyes, when they opened and closed, seemed to hold the movement of the sun, moon, and stars. When he saw Chu Fan arrive, a relieved smile appeared on his lips.

"Master!"

Chu Fan stepped forward and bowed, and Su Qingyao and Ye Zihan also bowed in greeting.

Di Xin raised his hand, gesturing for the three to rise. His voice was deep and resonant, like a bell: "Chu Fan, nine hundred years have passed. You have grown into a human emperor capable of protecting the Three Realms. Now, the primordial chaos has awakened, and the seal beneath Zhenxuan Mountain has been broken. The root of all this must be traced back to ancient times." He slowly rose and walked to the stone coffin in the center of the tomb chamber. The coffin was covered with the same creation god runes as those on the stone gate of Zhenxuan Mountain.

"Back then, the Creator God sealed the source of chaos at Zhenxuan Mountain, but left a hidden danger—the source of chaos needs the power of the Human Emperor as a guide to be completely suppressed."

"At the end of the Yin Shang Dynasty, the primordial chaos stirred for the first time. In order to protect the Three Realms, I gave up the throne and sacrificed myself to the formation, hiding my remnant soul and the fire of the Human Emperor here, which resonated with the seal of Zhenxuan Mountain."

"Who sent that black communication talisman?" Su Qingyao asked.

A cold glint flashed in Di Xin's eyes: "It is the lingering will of the Lord of Chaos. Back then, the Creator God sealed not only the origin of chaos, but also a wisp of the Lord of Chaos's remnant soul."

"The Dark Demon God is merely a pawn he manipulates, with the aim of depleting the essence of the Three Realms and breaking the two seals."

"Now my Human Emperor's Flame is gradually weakening, and the seal of Zhenxuan Mountain will not last much longer. We must gather the power of the ancient Human Emperor and the power of the contemporary Human Emperor to strengthen the seal again."

He raised his hand and waved, and a bronze token flew out of the stone coffin and landed in Chu Fan's hand.

The token was inscribed with the three characters "Seal of the Human Emperor," and it was surrounded by the power of humanity that originated from the same source as Chu Fan.

"This is the Human Emperor Seal of the Yin Shang Dynasty, containing the Human Emperor's Fire that I have cultivated throughout my life. You need to fuse your own human power with the token in order to control the complete power of the Human Emperor. However, this process is extremely dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will be devoured by my power."

Chu Fan gripped the Human Emperor Seal tightly, feeling the surging power within it, a resolute glint in his eyes: "For the sake of the Three Realms, this disciple is willing to give it a try!"

Ye Zihan immediately set up a spacetime barrier, and Su Qingyao used her Tai Chi power to protect Chu Fan.

Chu Fan sat cross-legged, pressing the Human Emperor Seal to his brow. His own power of humanity clashed violently with the Human Emperor's Flame within the token—

Golden flames instantly engulfed his entire body!

The thoughts of countless ancient ancestors and the battle spirits of the Yin and Shang dynasties flooded into Chu Fan's mind. He seemed to see the magnificent scene of Emperor Xin ruling over all races and sealing the formation.

"Hold fast to your original intentions!"

Di Xin spoke in a deep voice like muffled thunder, personally guiding the power, "The power of the Human Emperor originates from the faith of all people and returns to the peace of the Three Realms!"

Three hours later,
The golden flames around Chu Fan gradually subsided, and the Human Emperor Seal merged into his palm, resonating with the Origin Crystal. The seven-colored light intertwined with the Human Emperor's fire, forming a dazzling light curtain.

He slowly opened his eyes, golden light flashing within them, and the power of the Human Emperor emanating from his body was several times stronger than before.

"It's a success!" Su Qingyao breathed a sigh of relief.

Di Xin nodded, his expression grave: "Now, we should head to Zhenxuan Mountain. Mo Ying is probably already in danger."

When Chu Fan and his companions returned to Zhenxuan Mountain, the mountaintop was already in chaos.

The ground cracked open, spewing forth black energy. Shui Ling and Xuanzang were struggling to resist the chaotic power overflowing from the cracks.

Meanwhile, Mo Ying's shadow power teetered precariously above the crack, clearly unable to hold on any longer.

"Master, Qingyao, Zihan, come with me!"

Chu Fan roared, and the Human Emperor's Flame erupted, enveloping the four of them in a golden light barrier as they flew straight towards the underground of Zhenxuan Mountain.

In underground space,
The massive stone gate was half-open, the runes were dim and lifeless, and the dark figure was trapped by a strange suction force, its body swaying precariously.
