The peerless black hand that covers the sky

Chapter 1090: Born with red hair, an ominous end awaits!
"This is something I do not wish to see. I must seize a glimmer of hope for the world, transcending all constraints, even if..." Lingbao Tianzun murmured, "This is difficult, and it will require an endless price..."

"Great virtue of the Heavenly Venerable." The young man sighed, expressing his admiration and gratitude for the life of the Heavenly Venerable Lingbao.

He fought his entire life, never letting his guard down for a moment.

First, in the mythical era when corpses were rampant, there were endless battles, and they wished they could drag all the Heavenly Venerables who had transcended tribulations out of their graves and kill them.

Once again, during the era of Ye Fan's rise to power, he faced off against this protagonist of the era, and with a single sword strike, he wiped out all the results of his plastic surgery.

Later, the mastermind behind the mysterious progenitor surfaced, and the ancient overlord ravaged the world. He fought for all living beings, slaying the life master and burning the soul contract, severely injuring the master of the Soul River, who had to use "Nine Springs" to make a comeback.

Today, the journey continues, he is still fighting, and his sword points towards the path of evolution!

"I wouldn't call myself a great virtuous person; I'm just standing on the shoulders of many outstanding individuals."

Lingbao Tianzun shook his head, "Although these outstanding individuals are also the masterminds behind the chaos in the human world."

"They themselves offered the ropes that would hang them, to sharpen my sword!"

He said, "Only through memory infusion can it be shared... It's clear that it was originally done by that destiny master."

"Perhaps it was my desperate struggle back then that moved him."

"De-reincarnation, de-spiritualization, and freely bestow your wisdom, Dao fruits, and realms upon everyone, so that everyone, no matter how mediocre, without heaven-defying comprehension or unparalleled physique, can still have the same insights. Everyone is like a dragon, and education is for all!"

"This is my heart, forged into my sword, which struck him, almost taking him away to eternal silence... but it was just a little short, and I failed."

"Hovering on the edge of life and death, I think the impression must have been very deep... In the end, he took the path that followed, manipulating the memories of all living beings and playing tricks."

"He used underhanded methods to achieve what I wanted to do... My intentions were good, but they were distorted."

"However, his original intention was bad, but in carrying it out, it created the conditions for me to one day wield a sword and cut through the barriers and constraints between paths."

"Most beings possess multiple evolutionary paths, which are intricate and complex, and their minds are both split and reconciled. While evil thoughts may arise in this process, it is also a case of fighting poison with poison, leaving room for a turning point."

"Fate plays tricks on people, that's just how it is."

"When the tide of this era reaches its peak, that will be the moment I draw my sword!"

Lingbao Tianzun's eyes grew brighter and brighter, shining with an unbearable sharpness, as if they could pierce through endless time and space and cause and effect, striking a peerless mastermind, the culprit who caused this era to rush headlong into madness!
……

"Well."

In the deepest part of all human realms, at the core of the cycle of reincarnation, a supreme being, whose form is indistinct, stands there. As if sensing something, it turns its head in a daze and takes in the entire human world.

I don’t know when it started.

The flames that burned here, the fire of the vast sky, the flames of the ancient universe, were extinguished silently, leaving behind only a perfect placenta, flowing with an unfathomable aura, vast and boundless. Even the beings who performed the ritual would convulse and feel their souls about to shatter if they approached it.

Before the placenta, a smile gradually spread across the face of the supreme being, "It's almost here...it's coming..."

……

Time flows like water, surging and turbulent.

It doesn't stop for anyone, it forges ahead relentlessly.

The era of the Supreme God, which began with the Supreme God illuminating all worlds and guiding all beings onto the "path of pursuing dreams," has spanned three million years.

Such a period of time would not have been significant in the past; it would have been negligible, if not insignificant.

In the past, which of the celestial kings didn't sit and watch the mortal world for thousands of years, looking down upon the human realm?

But this era is different!

It can be said that, like the Ancestral Court Era, although it was short-lived, like a fleeting moment, it still shone with a brilliance that made people dare not look directly at it!
Because an emperor will emerge from the human realm!
A true emperor who belongs to all living beings of this era!

Immortal Emperor!

This is a crucial marker and milestone!
Moreover, this wasn't just one or two people, but a whole group!
The world is filled with a misty atmosphere, making the whole world mysterious and hazy.

The celestial light shone, and the misty aura turned purple, supreme and noble... but in a moment of distraction, it changed again, turning black in an instant, evil and eerie!
This is the aura of the Immortal Emperors attaining enlightenment in this era, a continuous process that creates this scene.

The clamor of the world is like cheering, yet also like wailing.

"He actually... became an emperor, paving the way for this era."

An ancient relic, having traversed the ages of progenitors, overlords, Dao masters, and supreme gods, whispered, "Incredible!"

"Yes, who could have imagined that a group of mentally unstable and crazy cultivators could actually reach the end of the road?" A reclusive Celestial Emperor sighed, his voice carrying a hint of disbelief.

The Demon Ancestor reforged the world, preserving many things. Although the Ancestral Court era was buried under the dust of time, those Immortal Emperors gradually revived and returned in the era of the Main God.

However, times have changed, and they can no longer stir up much trouble.

Not to mention that when the Dao Lords of the ancestral court revealed their true colors, even the heavens became a joke, turning into a dark chapter in the history of many Immortal Emperors, and they were manipulated at will.

Even in this era, it is not something that these remnants of the old era can stir up trouble. The beings above the sacrificial path are elusive and active, striving for transcendence. How could any Tom, Dick, or Harry be able to cause trouble?

This is a ship for the new era!
It carries all living beings, its destination unknown.

The great figures of the old era found it difficult to adapt; their paths and traditions, thrown into the tide of this era, did not even make a ripple.

after all.

Is the Golden Elixir method not effective? Or is the Bloodline method inadequate? Or is the Secret Realm method unusable?
Why would someone choose the lineage and inheritance of an ordinary Immortal Emperor?
Even with the best reputations from heaven, pollen emperors and pollen roads are nothing in this era, let alone anything else!

"...It is somewhat understandable that beings of this era can become quasi-immortal emperors."

The ancient Immortal Emperor's emotions were turbulent and he could hardly calm down. "After all, the methods they cultivated were too powerful and had boundless potential, which could support the birth of Quasi-Immortal Emperors. However, because their evolutionary path was too strong, it was difficult for them to expand and innovate further, and they had no chance to become Dao Ancestors."

"But, Immortal Emperor..."

"Ha, Immortal Emperor!" someone chuckled self-deprecatingly. "We should have known during the most glorious moment of the Ancestral Court that the Immortal Emperor was no longer an unattainable achievement!"

"If one doesn't create new laws and pave new paths, is it really impossible to become an Immortal Emperor? The Ancestral Court has already proven with facts that this is not the case!"

"The Main God Calendar can be said to have inherited many achievements from the Ancestral Court era... Heh, those Dao Lords might even be changing their appearance and stirring up trouble in this era!"

"If in the past there was still the hurdle of becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, filtering out countless beings in the world, with only one in a trillion being able to leap over the dragon gate, then in this era of memory empowerment and realm borrowing, what obstacle is there that cannot be overcome?"

"The rise of Immortal Emperors is simply a matter of course!"

"Even becoming an Immortal Emperor is just the beginning; the Dao Sacrifice is the pinnacle!"

"The laws created by those Dao Lords and the paths trodden by those overlords... will all shine in this era, bringing unprecedented brilliance and splendor!"

The ancient Celestial Emperor spoke, his voice tinged with sorrow and sighs, a sentiment born of being left behind by the times. "Brilliant? Glorious?"

Then, someone said in a strange tone, "But why do I feel like I'm seeing a lament and desolation, blood, fire, decay and decay..."

"Within the 'main god', resentment is overwhelming, distracting thoughts are rampant, and chaos reigns."

"In the human world, all sorts of inexplicable and bizarre things appear, indelible, and even resurrected."

"All of this seems to be foreshadowing something, which makes me uneasy."

"Furthermore, in the end, are the 'main god' and those behind-the-scenes manipulators, using methods like memory infusion and severing my enlightenment, truly acting in the best interests of all beings? Or do they have other motives?"

"Now, one Immortal Emperor after another is being born in the world, just like a fruit tree that has grown and borne fruit, and it is time to harvest it!"

"Don't forget..."

"Back then, how did the ancestral court perish... At its peak and most prosperous moment, the true colors were revealed, and all the worlds of humanity were wiped out in one fell swoop!"

These words startled the ancient immortal emperors who were exchanging words, and they could not calm down for a long time.

They experienced firsthand how the ancestral temple was destroyed, and they felt it deeply!

The world was heading towards great destruction. The Dao Lord revealed his true face and fought with the Overlord. In the end, there was even a being that seemed to be above the Dao of Sacrifice, and a final showdown was made. Unfortunately, they could not see those final developments and could only learn about them from clues.

"Indeed... the more glorious the event, the more devastating the eventual destruction."

Countless Celestial Emperors resonated with this sentiment: "This era is destined for great change, prepared specifically for the beings of this age."

"It seems that they want to verify something, to achieve something... to the point of being extremely vigilant, eliminating and destroying all variables."

"We, the veteran Immortal Emperors, have experienced the rise and fall of the ancestral court and participated in the exploration and development of the sacrificial rites by the Dao Lords."

"Although those Dao Lords all had more than one trick up their sleeves, and the data and results they provided were either half-true or incomplete..."

"But their success proves that there was nothing wrong with their approach."

“If we follow their path and explore new frontiers, then the path of worship is not without hope.”

"The results of it?"

“Some fellow Daoists tried to delve into this, but as they delved deeper, they ended up… with red hair growing on their bodies and becoming completely muddled!”

"Finally, one night, a fierce wind blew, and accompanied by red fur, it mysteriously disappeared!"

"Whether they are dead or alive, there's still no answer. They've been neither found alive nor dead!"

At this point, even a powerful immortal emperor felt a sense of sorrow and sympathy.

Do they really want to remain remnants of the old era and refuse to board the ship of the new era?

of course not!

It was out of desperation, because there was no other way out!
Whoever dares to jump around will reach the end of their life, grow red hair, and have an unfortunate old age!

I don't know which powerful person did this, but they were too ruthless, too cunning, and too shameless!

"Alas, perhaps we shouldn't have forced things at this time, or even been active... Looking at the frenzied atmosphere of this era, I suddenly feel a little scared, a little terrified."

A creature at the end of the road murmured, "I'm afraid, I'm worried, whether this madness will spread, whether it will infect us, and whether even we will eventually be unable to escape, unable to stay out of it, and unknowingly be turned into that shape? In the end, we'll be worse than dead!"

Suddenly, the place fell into a deathly silence; all the Immortal Emperors who had been discussing the matter were speechless.

Because this touched on their hearts, touched on their hidden worries, and was what they were most worried about and most afraid of deep down!

As the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer.

The Immortal Emperor is powerful, but in this era, how different is he from a mortal in the face of those unparalleled masters?
Even if it dies, it won't make a ripple!
Do we have any other options?

Another immortal emperor sighed.

"Perhaps...there is."

At this moment, someone spoke up, their voice hesitant, drawing many glances.

"Fellow Daoist, do you have a solution?"

The emperors were moved.

"A solution... well, it's not really a solution, but it's a solution."

The emperor murmured, "There's a hint of escapism in it."

He said.

"Since everyone is worried about living a life worse than death, why not choose death? Going crazy or going insane are things for the living to worry about, not the dead."

"If we choose to disappear, we may be able to avoid this calamity... After the storm has passed, returning by remembering the past would be the best course of action."

"..." The powerful figures were speechless.

What kind of solution is this?
But, after calming down and thinking about it, I feel... there's some truth to it?
Lying flat and laid out, as a dead person, there shouldn't be any trouble, right?

“This method… is a bit passive, but it is indeed feasible.” Someone hesitated and said, “However, if you can’t forget about it, someone has to keep thinking about it.”

"That's easy to explain."

The Celestial Emperor said, "With the sweeping tide of this Godhood era, we can... if we can't win, we can join."

"We may not live on, but we can let future generations live on, let our successors live on, let our memories live on..."

"In fact, have you fellow practitioners really not been doing anything behind the scenes amidst the tide of development in this era?"

"For example, what if one were to transform one's memories and skills, replicate and imprint them, and throw them into the tide of the times, making them part of the source of initiation of memories for all beings?"

"While the paths of evolution are indeed different, the path we have pioneered is far inferior to the Bloodline Method, the Golden Core Method, the Secret Realm Method, and even to the paths left behind by those Dao Lords and Overlords..."

"But with our superior understanding of the Immortal Emperor realm, we can grasp everything. It's not difficult for us to tinker with various cultivation skills, combat techniques, or even study the mysteries of the lower levels of the ultimate evolutionary path. We can get away with it..."

"Thus, living an alternative life within the self of others, adapting to the development of the times, seeing if there are any opportunistic opportunities, and what kind of fruits one can steal..."

The Immortal Emperor's detailed explanation created a very subtle and... awkward atmosphere.
