Perfect World: Ten Crowns

Chapter 425 Entering the Forbidden Zone of the Immortal Realm

"We've returned to the days of imperial decline."

On an ancient continent, a solitary figure appeared, wearing a dragon crown, with flowing black hair and an indescribable loneliness in his eyes.

Upon reaching this point, Xia Sheng instantly understood everything.

He arrived once again in the era of imperial decline.

But this time, it seems a little different from the past.

In my mind, a sacred chant arose, and observing the passage of time, I saw the cycle of yin and yang, the passage of time and space, and the creation of heaven and earth.
The laws of the past and present!
Undoubtedly, this is an invincible Dao technique that can transcend the river of time and space and appear in different worlds.

Does it belong to the Emperor?

A flurry of thoughts raced through Xia Sheng's mind.

This kind of magic is not difficult to learn; it blends like water, as if it were born for him.

Chi!
Then, he activated his magic power, and a vast sea of ​​space appeared behind him, flowing downstream along the river of time and appearing in other eras and timelines.

Soon, Xia Sheng traveled from the early years of the Emperor's Demise to the late years of the Emperor's Demise.

He saw a young man rise to prominence; that was Shi Hao, who, like himself, had experienced eight reincarnations in the Dharma-ending Age and ascended to immortality from the mortal world.

Then, he looked up slightly and saw a burly man in another vast realm. In an instant, he confirmed the man's identity.

Butcher!

"What the hell? How did you end up here?"

Looking at the young emperor who appeared before him, the butcher was filled with disbelief. A figure from an ancient era had actually come into reality from the legend.

Xia Sheng opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but found that his figure was dimming. Although it did not disappear, it became weaker and weaker, and even his primordial spirit felt tired.

Is this the result of the passage of time preventing our progress?

He muttered to himself, knowing that his time in this era was running out.

Then, under the butcher's gaze, Xia Sheng continued walking downstream along the river of time, wanting to return to his own era.

Rumble!
The Great Dao trembled. At this moment, in the ancient times of the Underworld, the Immortal Era, and the Chaotic Era, countless eras and epochs saw kings looking up at the long river of time.

Which celestial king is so bold as to dare to cross the river of time?

However, that person was too blurry; apart from a few of the strongest individuals, no one could clearly see his face.

"Hmm? Something's blocking the way!"

However, as the end of the chaotic era approached, Xia Sheng discovered that there was an inexplicable obstacle in front of him, preventing him from returning.

Is it cause and effect, or something else?

Suddenly, he felt a chill in his heart and began to think of a solution.

His return to the Imperial City was an inexplicable event in itself.

It is highly likely related to the era in which the Emperor lived, coupled with the illumination of the ancient artifacts of origin. However, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth is now preventing him from returning. He cannot remain in the past forever, can he?

At this moment, Xia Sheng's magical power was rapidly depleting, and he even felt an immense pulling force dragging him upstream along the river of time.

"To live in the past forever? I refuse!"

Looking at the present world so close at hand, Xia Sheng felt a sense of powerlessness.

He believed there must be a solution.

Despite the use of various artifacts such as the rotten wooden box, the Creation Emperor Disc, and the Taihao Sword, they could not prevent the fate of returning to the past.

"There's only one item left."

Xia Sheng's gaze was firm. He separated an avatar from his body, and the flow of Yin and Yang energy concealed the secrets of heaven, stealing the sky and changing the sun. All the restraints on his body were instantly removed.

Without hesitation, he went straight to the present day.

As for the Yin-Yang incarnation, it was pulled back to the past by a great force, returning to the era of the fallen emperor, and sat cross-legged above a blue sky.

"Meet the Emperor!"

The world instantly erupted in jubilation, with countless races flocking to pay homage and bow in reverence.

"May all be well."

The Emperor opened his eyes, his immense majesty tempered with a hint of spiritual light.

That was Xia Sheng's primordial spirit consciousness.

"what is this?"

When the emperor spoke, his state of mind was extremely unusual.

He returned to the present world, while a wisp of consciousness simultaneously existed in the past, like two parallel lines that could never intersect. The past and the present coexisted.

Even Xia Sheng was shocked at this moment, showing a surprised expression.

The transformation of Yin and Yang, with two different time and space existing simultaneously, what kind of strange thing did he cultivate?

"What happened, fellow Daoist?"

At this moment, the three funeral kings approached simultaneously, looking as if they had seen a ghost.

In their eyes, Xia Sheng disappeared for only a moment before suddenly returning, and even the dark matter on his body had dimmed considerably.

Upon hearing this, Xia Sheng remained silent for a long time before finally giving a slow reply.

"It's as if I've traveled back to the past."

He concealed certain things, such as the method of traversing the past and present, which is a true quasi-immortal emperor method, or even an immortal emperor method, and naturally cannot be spoken of to outsiders.
"This is unbelievable!"

Even Lin Ping shook her head, utterly shocked, after hearing the story.

The coexistence of the present and the past transcends the understanding of the realm of kings.

It even extends to the realm of "emperors".

However, Xia Sheng's realm did not break through, and he still stood at the pinnacle of giants.

After pondering for a long time without finding an answer, Xia Sheng could only bid farewell to the three of them.

His injuries are severe, and we must be careful, otherwise he might really die.

However, Xia Sheng was somewhat frustrated on his way back.

The trip to the Burial Realm nearly killed him, he lost his Yin-Yang Incarnation, and even his Emperor's body disappeared. It was truly a huge loss.

What can an incarnation that only exists in the past do?
"Perhaps, we can give it a try."

However, just as he left the Burial Realm and saw the outside world, a flash of inspiration struck Xia Sheng, and he had a bold idea.

"I'm going into seclusion, and I don't want anyone to disturb me."

Soon after returning to the Imperial Court, he immediately went into seclusion to repair his body.

At the same time, in the ancient era, the Emperor's eyes became even clearer.

Xia Sheng's true form has not disappeared; he is still in this world, repairing his damaged body.

He observed this ancient world solely through a wisp of will, from the perspective of an avatar.

"The art of the past and present!"

Then, the Emperor let out a soft sigh, recalling the scene from not long ago. Runes emerged one after another, and scrolls condensed, eventually transforming into a majestic chant, ancient and sacred.

Then, the Emperor rose and headed upstream along the river of time.

Since his present and past selves cannot be separated, he must go to an even more ancient era to seek the Dao fruit.

One day, when he has accumulated enough power, the two will merge and he will surely be able to break through the King Realm and enter the legendary Quasi-Immortal Emperor Realm.

The first stop was before the era of the fallen emperor, to pay homage to that legendary emperor.

Click, click, click!

However, as the Emperor departed from his original position, the pressure he faced became increasingly heavy.

Finally, when he arrived at the earliest era of Xia Sheng's reincarnation, which was when that Emperor Yuan went to the depths of the Boundary Sea, he could no longer bear it and had to stop and rest.

The closer they got to that emperor, the heavier their steps became.

After a long while, the Emperor rose again and headed towards an even more ancient era.
One day, I will meet that emperor.

The past is changing.

In this lifetime, fifty thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Boom!

On this day, Xia Sheng suddenly opened his eyes, his body radiant and his primordial spirit flawless, as he returned to the peak of his life.

At this moment, he sensed that the Emperor was still on his way. He had seen many laws and techniques, and his understanding of the Great Dao was becoming increasingly profound, which in turn affected his physical body.

It can be said that Xia Sheng's cultivation speed is increasing exponentially, which is an unexpected bonus.

"The past cannot be changed; the key lies in the present."

Xia Sheng muttered to himself, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. He looked up at the sky and murmured, "Let's go, it's time to settle that matter."
