Man is covering the sky, the system is perfect

Above the heavens, the laws of the path to immortality had not yet fully subsided, and specks of purple blood petals drifted down, carrying a mysterious and desolate beauty.

Faintly, a trace of chaotic sword energy streaked across the void, as if telling the story of the earth-shattering battle that had just taken place.

Apart from that, there was no other sound; the deathly silence was unsettling.

However, the entire universe was in an uproar at that moment!

Within the various forbidden zones of life, beings that have slumbered for millennia have awakened, their divine thoughts intertwining in the realm of the illusory gods, stirring up an invisible storm.

The shocking discovery of the connection between the Holy Body lineage and the Immortal Realm left all the powerful figures in a state of turmoil.

"The Holy Body lineage has died protecting humanity and all races in the universe throughout history, and they deserve this title!"

There was a sense of awe at the ancient existence, and the voice carried a rare reverence.

"Guardians? Were they also Great Accomplished Sacred Bodies who protected the Primordial Ancient Realm back then?"

The supreme beings in the forbidden zone couldn't wait to question Zhang Bairen, this old monster who had lived from the mythical era to the present, perhaps possessing unknown secrets.

Within the Realm of the Void Gods, divine thoughts intertwined like a surging galaxy, and those ancient beings from forbidden zones appeared particularly restless at this moment.

They vaguely sensed that they had touched upon the veins of the Immortal Realm, a crucial clue leading to immortality.

The tragic scenes of the fall of the Celestial Venerable of Immortality and the passing of the Immortal Mother at the speed of light still echo in my mind.

Especially the Eternal Celestial Venerable, an ancient being who fought against the lineage of the Great Accomplished Holy Body for countless years, ultimately met with misfortune on his path to immortality, which inevitably makes people think of some kind of karmic retribution.

This one has retaliated against the Holy Body lineage the most.

"Does this mean that anyone who opposes the lineage of the Great Accomplishment Holy Body will be severely punished by the Immortal Realm?"

This thought took root in the minds of many supreme beings in the forbidden zones, bringing with it an unspeakable fear.

But soon, more rational voices emerged.

"It shouldn't be that simple a reason. Even if the Immortal Realm is powerful and domineering, it shouldn't be like this."

A normal confrontation with someone from the Great Accomplishment Holy Body lineage shouldn't have resulted in such severe consequences.

They comforted themselves with these words, because strictly speaking, all six forbidden zones of the Eastern Wilderness had clashed fiercely with the lineage of the Ancient Sacred Body.

Cases of mutual fighting resulting in death have occurred more than once or twice over the long course of history.

If the Immortal Realm truly punishes all those who oppose the Holy Body, then those within the forbidden zones will likely be without exception.

Furthermore, that supreme being just now also personally stated that the Holy Body lineage can be killed but not humiliated.

If it were just a normal confrontation with the Great Accomplished Holy Body, or a confrontation with someone from the Holy Body lineage, then the outcome and the blood on each other's bodies would be normal and there would be no insult.

Like the lineage of the Great Accomplishment Overlord Body, they not only killed the Great Accomplishment Holy Body who suppressed the dark turmoil, but also refined the Great Accomplishment Holy Body's body into weapons.

At the same time, he always kept the precious blood left on the body of the Great Accomplished Holy Body by his side, and would drink a sip whenever needed.

Furthermore, they have been suppressing the Great Accomplishment Holy Body lineage for many years, so the karmic ties between them are quite significant.

Among the many Great Accomplished Sacred Bodies that confront the forbidden zones, the Martian Sacred Bodies are the most intense and domineering.

He had fought fiercely with the ancient emperor who had slashed himself in the Primordial Ancient Mine on the ancient star of the Big Dipper many times, causing stars to fall and the world to lose its color.

Those were earth-shattering battles. The Martian Holy Body, with its invincible power, shattered stars with its fists and trod through the void, fighting against the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone to the edge of the universe.

Ultimately, after both sides paid a heavy price, a delicate agreement was reached.

After the world was at peace, the Martian saint chose to travel to a foreign land and eventually passed away on Mars, leaving behind an immortal legend.

This agreement laid the foundation for the relationship between the Holy Body and the Forbidden Zone in later generations, and also curbed the Dark Turmoil to a certain extent.

In the ancient era, nine Great Accomplished Saint Bodies emerged one after another, each possessing unparalleled combat power.

They protected humanity, quelled unrest, and became beings both hated and feared by the supreme beings of the forbidden zones.

Every forbidden zone in the living realm has been clashed with the Ancient Sacred Body.

If the Immortal Realm were to truly pursue the responsibility of opposing the Holy Body, then practically no one in the forbidden zone would be qualified.

However, upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that those who truly stained the Great Accomplished Sacred Body with blood were mainly the Undying Taoists of the Undying Mountain and the mysterious force of the Underworld.

The Immortal Taoist once ambushed a Great Accomplished Saint Body cultivator and caused that cultivator to die on the Sacred Cliff.

For countless years, no one dared to claim his body on the sacred cliff, until finally the Great Emperor Wushi came to pay his respects and offer sacrifices.

Of course, Emperor Wushi also suppressed the Immortal Daoist inside the Sacred Cliff in the past.

The feud between the Underworld and the Holy Body lineage is even more extensive.

The underworld needs to forge a chaotic body, absorbing the most powerful blood of ten thousand kinds, and the sacred body is one of them.

At the same time, because the sacred body's qi and blood are extremely strong and yang, they specifically restrain the underworld.

As a result, the underworld and the Holy Body lineage have always had a great feud.

The father of the Great Emperor Wushi was cursed to death by the underworld.

Even the subsequent lineage of the Holy Body has been cursed by the underworld.

In this round of celestial retaliation, the Immortal Daoist was instantly defeated by an unparalleled being on the path to immortality, and the Underworld also suffered its fiercest attack.

Today, countless star systems are still immersed in boundless yin energy, telling the story of the devastating revenge.

However, the Immortal Realm's revenge seemed to have ended there, without escalating further.

This situation made those in the restricted area feel both reassured and slightly uneasy.

What exactly are the criteria for judging the Immortal Realm? This is a mystery they have not yet fully understood.

Faced with the persistent questioning from the supreme figures in the restricted area, Zhang Bairen could only shake his head.

This definitely touched on a blind spot in his knowledge.

"I'm not very clear on this aspect,"

Zhang Bairen readily admitted it.

"In my time, the world had collapsed, and most of the traditions had disappeared."

The Guardians' lineage must date back to a very ancient period; there are few records of it from our time.

Zhang Bairen's words revealed a deep sense of helplessness.

As an old monster who has lived from the age of mythology to the present, he has witnessed too many rises and falls, but it is precisely because of this that he understands that too many secrets of the universe have been submerged by the river of time.

The truth of a lost era may lie hidden in these fragmented legacies.

The connection between the Guardians and the Immortal Realm may be deeper than anyone imagines.

However, these things are impossible to verify now; they can only be said by the Immortal Realm.

They themselves had no way to verify this elsewhere.

The purple blood on the path to immortality gradually stopped, and the last trace of the chaotic sword energy also dissipated into the void.

Discussions across the universe have not ceased, and the connection between the Great Accomplished Sacred Body and the Immortal Realm has become the most intriguing mystery of this era.

In the Realm of the Gods, Zhang Bairen gazed at the endless starry sky, his eyes deep and profound.

Even in this moment of utter silence, some people are still rushing forward.

Becoming an immortal is the ultimate goal of all cultivators throughout history.

Now that this goal is right in front of us, no one can bear the pain of missing this opportunity.

However, the people who rushed in this time were none other than the Fighting Saint Emperor and the Human Demon.

"Two newly emerged unconventional paths to enlightenment?"

Within the forbidden zone and the Void God Realm, many figures' eyes flashed as they noticed the difference.

"They're the younger brother of the Fighting Saint Emperor!" "And the Demon Human who caused endless slaughter and chaos in the Primordial Era—how did they end up like this?"

The practitioners felt a difference in surprise and awe.

The ancient city still stands there, having endured many changes and upheavals, yet it remains simple and unadorned.

The golden-armored general stood guard there alone, the ancient mirror casting its light upon both of them.

"They are all descendants of the ancient primordial world, and there is no dark matter within them. They may enter my realm!"

The words were unremarkable, simply and directly allowing people to enter.

In an instant, the slightly quiet and restless world came alive once again.

While many cultivators were surprised, the initial shock had subsided, leaving only the old man, the demon, and the Victorious Fighting Buddha looking bewildered.

In fact, they reached the stage of alternative enlightenment in the shortest possible time in order to suppress the darkness and turmoil.

After all their hard work to get to this point, they discovered that in the end, they weren't even needed.

Not only them, but Gai Jiuyou and Chuan Ying, who were already in the Immortal Ancient Small World, also sighed in silence.

At this very moment, he was complaining about Wang Mingyuan in that corner of the world.

"If you killed everyone by yourself, what are we supposed to do?"

"At least leave us a few so we can hone our skills!"

They were all complaining and sighing.

However, the overall feeling was relaxed and very composed.

Just now, when they killed the Great Completion Body, they made a move.

Before he could gain any further insight, Wang Mingyuan had already defeated the rest of the group with a few punches and kicks.

At this moment, six black holes still floated above Wang Mingyuan's head.

That was the ultimate, sublime version of the Six Paths Reincarnation Heavenly Technique that he demonstrated.

Within the Azure Heaven Overlord Body, Xuanming was swallowed into his body and completely refined.

The origins of the other two bodies were sealed within a mass of immortal energy and left aside.

At this very moment, his realm and strength throughout his life are still rising, breaking through at an astonishing pace, beyond everyone's expectations and imagination.

Even within Zhang Daoyuan's body, a divine embryo condensed during this time.

At this moment, the origin of the Chaos Body gradually disappeared from his body and was severed by Zhang Daoyuan.

No, it wasn't severed, but rather he was further sublimated from the Chaos Body.

The Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, Thunder Emperor Treasure Technique, Kunpeng Treasure Technique, and True Phoenix Treasure Technique that he combined have not yet been fully digested.

He is making further progress.

In that extremely short process just now, it can be considered as a rebirth and sublimation.

Other ancient emperors and great emperors would need tens of thousands of years of accumulation to take this step.

Wang Mingyuan was different; he absorbed more than ten of the most top-tier figures in the shortest amount of time.

By turning their accumulated knowledge into our own, we can skip this step directly.

Even the Immortal Emperor's transformation was nothing more than this, and it wasn't even as exaggerated as Wang Mingyuan's.

The people in this world watched Wang Mingyuan's transformation with visibly twitching faces.

His level of attainment and cultivation is truly beyond human imagination.

"A second-generation Chaos Body?"

"You've lived a second life?"

Gai Jiuyou had lived a second life, so he had some understanding and speculation about Wang Mingyuan's condition.

But Wang Mingyuan's attitude and actions of living a second life were very different from what he had imagined.

Shouldn't such an attempt be made when one is about to die or when one's lifespan is almost over?

Wang Mingyuan had just reached the peak of his life.

Instead of stopping, he went even further than his peak and reached a new peak.

Having just achieved the status of a Great Emperor, he underwent a rebirth within the Great Emperor realm, transforming an even stronger divine embryo from within the divine embryo.

Isn't that a bit outrageous?
"I have been studying and observing the Devouring Heaven Demon Art and the Undying Heaven Art of the Ruthless Great Emperor."

It also incorporates the scriptures of other great emperors and ancient sovereigns, thus providing a certain level of understanding in this area.

I can say that I'm standing on the shoulders of giants, so I was able to take this step very quickly..."

Wang Mingyuan was neither arrogant nor self-deprecating.

He spoke these words in a calm and ordinary manner, words that would make countless ancient emperors and kings envious and jealous.

"Your talent..."

Even Gai Jiuyou, the most outstanding and stubborn guy, has always wanted to challenge Qingdi to a PK when Qingdi was at his peak.

At this moment, he was completely convinced by Wang Mingyuan and sighed with regret.

I have never seen such a heaven-defying figure as Wang Mingyuan, who, with an ordinary mortal body, achieved the Chaos Body while becoming a Great Emperor.

Then, after becoming an emperor, he learned the secrets of the Chaos Body in the shortest possible time.

They even went a step further beyond the Chaos Body, achieving a mysterious and unimaginable constitution and physique.

This level of achievement, this speed of breakthrough.

It's truly despair-inducing.

Even though the Ruthless Great Emperor was stunning throughout the ages, he wasn't this outstanding or this domineering back then.

Wang Mingyuan, however, remained indifferent.

Just as he was about to speak, a thought suddenly struck him, and he turned his gaze to the outside of the path to immortality.

At the location of the ancient star Ziwei, a loud cry shook the galaxy.

The next moment, the life essence of the entire ancient Big Dipper star was completely devoured by the tiny infant.

The gleaming Undying Heavenly Blade flashed in the void, about to strike down.

At this moment, on the path to immortality, Wang Mingyuan nodded slightly to the many figures in the Immortal Ancient Small World.

"I scared the penalty area out of their wits this time, they probably won't dare to come in."

"Let's wait a little longer for this trap. If someone who meets the criteria is willing to come in, then let them in."

"As for me, I'll go back to fishing. Fishing is fine too!"

Before the words were even finished, an unprecedented divine light suddenly burst forth from this world.

Amidst the astonished gazes of countless people, Wang Mingyuan, who had achieved enlightenment in the shortest time and broken the record of the entire cultivation world, rushed through the passage and returned to this world.

A punch was thrown from across the starry sky, and the Undying Heavenly Blade trembled violently, cracking open with countless fissures, from which flowed countless streams of five-colored blood, just like a person.

Then, in the next moment, it deliberately cleaved through the void and disappeared.

"The Chaos Emperor?!"

"He's returned again. He's become an immortal, he's come back?" (End of Chapter)
