The beginning of the story: Tracing back to the empress, my qualifications to be the emperor

"The curse of the underworld, Red Hair is unknown, why would it come to me at this time?"

The emperor was shocked. Mu Wushuang was clearly at the peak of his powers. Could it be that the underworld had been eyeing him for a long time?

At the same time, on the other side of the starry sky, somewhere deep in the underworld, some terrifying existence seemed to have revived. Endless resentful souls were wailing, countless evil spirits were flying, and rushing in this grand hall, blood and fire soaring into the sky!

On the other side, teams of ghost soldiers were crossing the border, commanded and led by practitioners of the source technique who had fallen into an ominous state.

These ghost soldiers were summoned from various ancient places of life, and now they can only be regarded as ancient corpses, not very powerful. But once they enter the underworld, it will be completely different. Many ghost soldiers will be awakened from their previous life’s combat power. At that time, it will be terrifying!
It seemed as if an endless killing calamity was rising, with tens of millions of lives crying and wailing. A huge blood mist was rising, and everything was red.

In the blood mist, skulls are floating up and down, and corpses of gods and demons are floating in the air; these are all virtual bodies, but they give people a very real feeling.

"I don't know the beginning, I don't know the end. At the end of reincarnation, everything will come to an end. The underworld is the destination of all souls!"

Amidst the blood mist, a skinny figure sat cross-legged, motionless. His sallow skin was shriveled and wrapped around his bones. His body remained in this position and he slowly opened his eyes.

"The ominousness has long been destined, and everything is a disaster for longevity. In the mythological era, His Majesty the Dark Emperor pioneered immortality, used the source technique to find the destiny of heaven and earth, and buried his next life. Let us test the method, observe the reincarnation seal, and build the road to longevity."

Deep in the dark underworld, whispers like wailing sounded and echoed in all directions, causing blood mist to surge, resentful spirits to roll, and coffins to roar.

With a bang, the coffin was opened and a tall figure walked out. He was covered with red hair and stepped out from the depths of the temple like a demon.

There was a magic lamp burning on each of his shoulders, including the top of his head, emitting a heart-pounding red light. It seemed like the presentation of some ancient magic. The human body has three lamps, symbolizing the original yang energy, two on the shoulders and one on the top of the head.

But what was strange was that the three lights of this creature were a strange scarlet color, as if they were soaked in endless blood and darkness, and inside them one could see the wailing of one creature after another.

"The successor of the Dark Emperor's Dao..."

The tall demonic figure sneered, and his eyes suddenly turned bright red like blood. He became ferocious and terrifying all of a sudden, with red hair all over his body moving without wind, and he looked extremely ferocious.

Three lights flickered, and a shadow was reflected in the firelight. It was a Divine Source as big as a human body, with a red-haired claw sealed inside, exactly the same as those dug out from some ghost mines in Beidou!
"The descendant of the Dark Emperor who has embarked on the path of enlightenment through the source art, what a vigorous body you have. Although I don't know why I have never sensed your presence, everything is destined!"

At the side, the creature with a sallow and dry body, dressed in ancient clothes, opened its mouth in an extremely eerie voice.

In his body, there was half of the reincarnation seal remaining!

This seemed to be some kind of alternative immortality technique that had been passed down from ancient times to the present day, but it was eerie and filled with an ominous feeling.

The Seal of Reincarnation is an ancient method used in the mythological era to prove immortality. It is closely related to the Hades Emperor who has left his name through the ages.

As early as the mythological era, all the supreme beings had devoted themselves to study and contemplation for a considerable period of time, which had caused more than one unrest.

However, in that era, some people tested the law and eventually suffered the consequences, and nothing happened after that.

The Hades Emperor, who was the best at this, has disappeared. Some people think that he is dead and has completely disappeared, but only those who know him know how terrifying he is. He has never died, but has been reincarnated in the mortal world and will eventually return.

"Go and bring back the descendant of the Hades. Let him be baptized and accept the existence of the end of reincarnation with all his heart. He will become a part of the underworld..."

The red-haired monster whispered, and three lights burned brightly. With a wave of his hand, the figures in the burial pit in front stood up with all their strength, letting out a low roar, their eyes gradually turned blood red, and they were wearing armor and holding sharp weapons, and their ends could not be seen at a glance.

These are ancient powerful men who died and were led into the underworld. Their corpses were raised over a long period of time, and after being blessed by the Lord of the Underworld, they had this kind of underworld blood and were given an alternative will.

Seven layers of immortal power intertwined between the red-haired monster's palms and fingers, sealing off the world and opening up thousands of source sky patterns, connecting to the starry sky, and laying out a map with stars to form a huge celestial star gate.

The path of source arts is a polluted and ominous road. No matter whether one sets foot on it or lives in old age, one is destined to be entangled with the underworld and it is difficult to escape.

As the only one who could embark on the path of enlightenment in the source art and follow the footsteps of the Underworld Emperor after the ancient times, Mu Wufang's breakthrough attracted the attention of the underworld.

Mu Wushuang had expected this. As early as the moment he became the Source Heavenly Master, he asked the Green Lotus Emperor Soldier God to deduce the slight throbbing feeling in his heart. Now that he has embarked on the path of becoming a Source Master and achieved the state of great harmony between heaven and earth, this feeling has become incomparably strong after he took the initiative to release the suppression of the Sun Emperor Tower.

The burial places of gods and demons were all absorbed by the power of the innate Bagua and became the Kun land of one of the Qiankun lands, becoming increasingly vast.

Mu Wushuang stood between heaven and earth, with silver-gold flames surging, turning every red hair into ashes. At the same time, his mind moved, and his own Holy Demonic Embryo physique, which was inherited from an unknown great holy body in his later years, also began to mutate.

Under the combined influence of the Source Curse and the Holy Body Curse, Mu Wushuang's entire body was wrapped in dark red whirlwinds and yellow blood hair. It was extremely weird, as if a demon from hell had been resurrected, very terrifying.

"It seems that I am destined to be entangled with the underworld from now on."

Mu Wushuang destroyed all the ominous fluctuations and revealed a hint of inexplicable color. There are some areas in the world that once you set foot in, you can't escape. You will sink deeper and deeper and lose your way back. Even the ancient emperor may not be able to have a good end.

Master Yuan Tianshi's later years were miserable. He saw many ominous things. Disappearing from the world meant turning him into a red-haired creature. From then on, he lived in a daze and lost his mind.

At his current level, if it was just a simple source curse, he could still solve it, but this dual curse of holy body and source magic would be difficult to completely resolve, at least before he achieved enlightenment.

"The real underworld has long since dissipated. What remains now is just a bunch of dead rats hiding in the shadows."

"In the past, the Hades Emperor opened up the underworld, but he never thought that it would become the biggest source of troubles in the world; Changsheng, who has driven generations of powerful people crazy, is still pursuing the path of the ancient method of becoming an immortal."

The Emperor said this. Although he was a disciple of the Emperor, he did not know much about the mysterious Emperor of the Underworld and the Underworld.

"Ancient method of becoming an immortal..."

Mu Wushuang whispered that in the underworld, apart from the Hades, perhaps only the Corpse King had formed a complete reincarnation seal. This method was very strange. In the original timeline, Duan De, also known as the Hades, spent a long time collecting nine reincarnation seals and became an immortal in the mortal world.

“Emperors and kings of every era have studied immortality and ancient methods, but most of them chose another path, which is to fight their way up to the fairyland from the mortal world and become immortals with supreme power. This is now considered a crack in the path to immortality.” Taichu whispered in a leisurely tone.

Becoming an immortal is what the powerful have been pursuing throughout the ages, and it is also a beautiful vision of immortality. However, as mythological eras change, the gods are reduced to ashes, the gods are destroyed, the emperors decay, and the ancient emperors are turned into a handful of earth.

These eras have passed away one after another. The vast starry sky and the flow of hundreds of millions of years are nothing. No one can resist it. No matter how brilliant and charming you are, there will be a day when you will reach the end of your life.

A trace of vicissitudes flashed across Zhang Bairen's eyes. He remained silent, and it was unknown what he was thinking about.

Mu Wushuang was moved and fell into deep thought. In this world, in the more ancient times, there was the reincarnation path and the ancient underworld. After the rise of the ancient and desolate emperor, they all disappeared and would not reappear until the future.

Perhaps this period of vacuum is the best time for his growth, and he will not be affected by various strange forces.

"It's time to speed up..."

He sighed quietly, following the timeline of the original novel's trio of Ye Fan, Henren, and Wu Shi, which was not his style.

He must grow up as quickly as possible like the beast baby in the ancient times, so that he can dominate his own destiny in the great changes in the future.

Mu Wushuang buried his complicated thoughts deep in his heart. The first priority now was to break the hand extended by the underworld, let them feel the pain, and buy himself a few years of peaceful development.

He took a step and appeared on the ancient star of the divine domain in the outside world. The next moment—

Boom!

At this moment, a loud noise was heard from outside the domain, and nine stars appeared in a line, forming a crack in the starry sky, opening the celestial portal and revealing endless blood on the other side.

"Oh my god, what happened? There is such a change outside the domain. Nine stars are aligned and a portal has opened? Is it the gods who are taking action?"

On the ancient star, some creatures screamed, filled with awe and fear.

Manipulating the stars as chess pieces and smelting the starry sky as a portal, such methods are undoubtedly terrifying existences in the realm of saints. Saints can destroy planets, and the method of turning an entire starry sky into a gate to heaven can only be performed by a great saint at least. It is too shocking.

Behind the star gate, a cold and resentful voice was heard. It was a monster covered with strange red hair. Its eyes were cold and greedy, as if it wanted to swallow Mu Wushuang whole.

"At the end of reincarnation, everything will come to an end. The underworld is the final resting place of all souls!"

"If you are the descendant of the Hades Emperor, don't go to the underworld now? When will you go?"

Rumble!
The iron hooves shook the starry sky, as if a torrent of steel suddenly surged, and the murderous aura of the bloody conquest instantly swept across the vast sky. A team of iron cavalry rushed over, shouting and roaring, with a strong momentum. They were fierce and murderous, and each ancient beast was covered in iron armor, with a cold metallic luster, all of them were ancient species.

The knights were ferocious and powerful, all wearing ghost masks, and each of them had a strong aura of death.

There were seven figures, each one was very terrifying, with the smell of blood and bones all over their bodies. They had crawled out from the pile of dead bodies, and the smell of death was terrifying.

Even, he could not feel any life waves, as if he came from the underworld, had been dead for countless years, and now was summoned back to this world.

"Emperor Lu, we are back again..."

One of the seven riders spoke, and his voice was like two pieces of iron plates rubbing together, sharp and piercing, causing small bumps on the skin and making the whole body uncomfortable.

The fluctuations of spiritual will coming from his immortal platform made people understand that they were not corpses, but had signs of life.

"The Seven Heroes of Chaos? Unfortunately, I am not Chaos!"

Mu Wushuang's eyes were cold as he saw through the identities of the seven people. The stars in his eyes disappeared, and the trend of the universe expanded. In an instant, the source sky pattern connected most of the starry sky.

The starry sky seemed to have life. He tapped the void with his right hand, turning the world into heaven and earth, the great trend into the universe, making the sun, the moon, the stars and the rivers appear. Thousands of silver waterfalls fell from the sky, covering a vast expanse of white. The Great Wilderness Prisoner's Sky Hand instantly killed one war slave after another from the underworld.

At the same time, meteorites flew in from outside the domain, forming a star rain that shone with immortal light, and in an instant it seemed to penetrate the past, present and future.

"What a mysterious method! The Dark Emperor who created this method was definitely a man of extraordinary ability. He is the only one who has created the source technique and achieved enlightenment. He is even rarer than the Ancient Emperor."

The emperor was amazed. The Source Art was a mysterious and unpredictable path. He had just embarked on this path and yet he had such great power. It was really amazing what a stunning scene it would be when he could achieve enlightenment in the Source Art. It was really arousing.

It can be said that the source art is endless. With the help of the trend of heaven, earth and stars, one can evolve one's own Taoism and make the world change according to one's own will. The Hades Emperor who opened up this path can be said to be amazing. It is definitely a Taoist school that can be proud of all the ancient and modern times.

In the most terrifying light, terrifying Dao patterns burst out, fragments of laws filled the sky, and the divine chain of order penetrated all obstacles and impacted here, forming a huge storm.

The universe exploded, the stars fell, and it became dim and dim, disappearing and disintegrating.

Blood rained down from the place of collision, the armor of the seven demon knights shattered and flew everywhere, figures fell to the ground, there was chaos, and large amounts of dark blood flowed.

"Black blood...they are actually bleeding this kind of blood!"

Some people trembled, felt a headache, and a trace of fear appeared in their eyes.

In just a moment, the war slaves of the underworld suffered heavy losses. Except for the Seven Heroes of Chaos who were still surviving, all the others were wiped out.

"You are not qualified to take me to the underworld!"

"Interesting. You have such a high level of cultivation after just entering the realm of the source art. You, who have inherited the Dao of the Dark Emperor, deserve to enter my underworld!"

Behind the star gate, the red-haired monster was moved. He could of course see that Mu Wushuang had not used any killing magic before. He was only able to achieve such great power by using his own source art realm and driving the power of heaven and earth. It was truly amazing.

The blood lamp on his shoulder swayed, and a wisp of fire flew out, scarlet and sticky. After falling out of the domain gate, it turned into seven red stars, forming a formation and directly suppressed it.

"An ancient creature comparable to a half-step Quasi-Emperor!"

The emperor's expression changed. This red-haired monster was so powerful that it had reached the level of half-step quasi-emperor.

Next to him, in the depths of the star gate, a withered figure stood up. His skin was sallow and his eyelids drooped, covering his eyes. However, he exuded a terrifying aura, which was even stronger than the red-haired monster. He was definitely a strong man comparable to the true quasi-emperor level.

boom!
The Immortal-Slaying Gourd and the Sun Emperor Tower appeared at the same time, and two streams of extreme aura roared out, directly resisting the seven falling red stars. The Divine Phoenix Danced with the Golden Sun, and its power surprised the two people behind the star gate.

"The Immortal Slaying Gourd and the Sun Clan's Imperial Tower actually fell into your hands!"

The red-haired monster was surprised. The quasi-emperor who had destroyed the Sun Royal Family in the underworld had never seen this imperial tower, but now it appeared in the hands of the descendant of the Underworld Emperor?
And the gourd that was broken in the ancient war between gods was also repaired by him?
Buzz!

The Immortal-Slaying Gourd glowed, and Mu Wushuang activated it directly, reviving the Extreme Emperor Soldier and launching a peak attack together with the Sun Emperor Tower. The ultimate divine power emerged like an overwhelming force, and the Flying Immortal Sword destroyed seven red stars in an instant, directly chopping the giant hand off.

Immediately afterwards, the two divine weapons trembled, and their power became even greater. They directly opened the star gate and sent out extreme energy towards the underworld behind them, instantly destroying the sky and the earth, sweeping through entire palaces and turning countless war slaves into ashes.

……

In the divine realm, everything came to an end. Mu Wushuang held the Immortal-Slaying Gourd in his hand and with the Sun Emperor Tower hanging above his head, he stood tall in the sky.

“God! It’s God who is performing a miracle!”

"Someone has offended the majesty of God. The omnipotent God has taken action to kill all offenders!"

The people of the God's Realm all bowed their heads in worship, fearing the one true God in heaven. Even though some of the gods understood what had happened and that the so-called gods of the God's Realm had long since perished, they still bowed their heads in worship!

As for the old god from before, it seemed as if this person had never existed and was forgotten by everyone, and this happened in just a moment.

And this is the rule of this world, the strong prey on the weak, and whoever holds power is destined to be the winner.

Mu Wushuang smiled meaningfully, released a mighty divine power, and took over the entire divine domain.

The divine might roared across the entire divine realm. Everyone bowed down and shouted "there is only one true God". The elder gods were even more excited and rushed to the sacred mountain to meet him.

On the central sacred mountain, Mu Wushuang met with a group of old gods and sat in the center to handle all matters. The statues of the old gods were all replaced with his appearance. All spirits worshiped him, and the power of faith was smoothly transferred, turning into a torrent surrounding him.

Different from the previous Lord of the Divine Realm, he did not choose to refine it into his body, but simply used blessings, still relying on external objects to nourish himself, only I am eternal.

From this day on, the statues of gods in the divine realm were unified. People no longer respected the old gods, but the Taoist gods. Some people also chanted the title of the god as 'Changshi Wanfa Tianjun', while others called him 'Taihao Tiandi', all of which were transformed into pure wish power.

"Such a divine realm, if it is united with my Starry Sky Divine Kingdom, will immediately undergo a great transformation..."

In the starry sky composed of the power of faith, Mu Wushuang sat quietly and thought. Before, he fought in the ancient roads of the starry sky, cut off the ancient roads of various races and refined them into the starry sky kingdom, and converted the saints and creatures of various races into slaves.

Now, if he could integrate the divine domain into the starry sky divine kingdom and merge the two into one, then the power of faith accumulated in the divine domain for countless years would completely belong to him, which would also be beneficial to him.

But before that, it must obtain the approval of the Zhuxian Formation Diagram, otherwise it will shake the divine realm and inevitably cause chaos.

……

On the other side of the starry sky, in the underworld.

"Damn it!"

The red-haired monster roared, countless years of hard work were destroyed, and all the corpse slaves raised here were turned into ashes by the ultimate divine power!
What's worse is that some sleeping beings were also awakened, roaring, and were about to break free from their restraints, causing chaos inside the underworld.

Compared to these, the heaviness on their bodies that requires them to sleep for a hundred years to repair their injuries is just a small matter.

"The descendant of the Dark Emperor, the Daoist master who became an emperor..."

The creature with sallow skin whispered as he looked at the severed half of his body. His breath was extremely unstable and his expression seemed a little distorted.

This attack was the one with the heaviest losses in tens of thousands of years, except for the era before the beginning of time.

The only consolation was that they had a better understanding of the only descendant of the Underworld Emperor since ancient times, and they no longer had only a vague sense of him as before.

The universe is so vast that even an emperor-level cultivator would find it difficult to monitor the entire universe, let alone them.

This time, they have also locked down the identity of the Heir of the Dark Emperor. (End of this chapter)
