The Heavenly Emperor of Chu

Chapter 120 Emperor (3K10K)

The Longevity Celestial Venerable's words were like a thunderclap from the heavens, instantly causing the supreme beings in many forbidden zones of life to tremble in fear.

"Wha, what?"

"Lingbao Tianzun?"

"Didn't he fail in his transformation? His body still lies lying in the starry sky."

"Fellow Daoist Changsheng, are you joking?"

The crowd could hardly believe that an ancient celestial being who had passed away in the long river of time would return again; this completely overturned their understanding.

But the four swords of Zhuxian hanging in the sea of ​​stars and the boundless and unparalleled Dao of Intercepting Heaven all signify that the Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, who has been asleep for millions of years and has the reputation of conquering immortals, has returned.

The overwhelming power shook the universe, making these supreme beings from the forbidden zones tremble with fear, and the sharp killing intent made their primordial spirits feel a stinging pain.

Clearly, this Lingbao Celestial Venerable's strength far surpasses theirs, having entered an unbelievable realm, which is why they have this feeling.

Why would the Celestial Venerable Lingbao go to such lengths?

Many supreme beings in forbidden zones were puzzled. It was rumored that Lingbao Tianzun had lived several lifetimes in reverse, and his offensive power was comparable to that of only a handful of Dao-proving individuals throughout history.

What kind of opponent could Lingbao Tianzun possibly be so serious about?

In the Immortal Mountain.

The overwhelming killing intent instantly awakened Fuxi and Nuwa.

Fuxi's expression changed. This power was far stronger than his own. He immediately used the Great Dao of Heavenly Secrets to deduce its origin.

"Lingbao Tianzun?"

A short while later, Fuxi suddenly opened his eyes, his tone full of doubt.

"Is Fuxi truly the Lingbao Tianzun himself?"

Nuwa's expression turned solemn. She could also sense the vast power deep within the universe, which was definitely far stronger than her own.

But didn't Lingbao Tianzun pass away long ago in the mythological era?

How could it possibly reappear in the world?

Judging from this action, it seems that he has encountered an unimaginable enemy and is going all out from the start.

"I'm not sure. Perhaps Lingbao Tianzun's return is related to that Heavenly Emperor."

Fuxi shook his head and guessed.

Aside from the mysterious Taiyi Heavenly Emperor, he truly couldn't think of anyone else who could possess such means to bring back a mythical celestial being who had already passed away.

"The Supreme Heavenly Emperor?"

Nuwa murmured to herself.

Before attaining enlightenment, although she knew of the name of the Supreme Heavenly Emperor, she did not pay much attention to it.

After all, a long period of time had passed since the passing of the Supreme Heavenly Emperor.

After she attained enlightenment, Nuwa learned that the legendary Taiyi Emperor had not died, but was constantly transforming in the human world.

Even in his later years, Fuxi killed the legendary supreme deity revered by all races.

"Who is that person confronting Lingbao Tianzun?"

Nuwa gazed at the distant sky and vaguely saw a figure in black. He stood quietly in the starry sky, without revealing any aura, just like a mortal.

"I don't know. There's too little information to deduce his whereabouts."

Fuxi shook his head. Although the Great Dao of Heavenly Secrets is powerful, it is impossible to create something out of nothing or deduce it out of thin air without a medium.

"No matter what, as long as the two of them start fighting, the figure in black will inevitably reveal a trace of his aura, and his identity will become clear at that time."

Fuxi did not dwell on it too much, but instead focused his attention on the depths of the universe.

……

the other side.

In a star field deep in the universe, the Celestial Venerable Lingbao, upon discovering the mastermind behind the array, unhesitatingly unleashed the Four Swords of Immortal Slaughter to construct an unparalleled killing array.

Crimson swords materialized within the formation, carrying boundless killing intent, transforming into a vast sea of ​​blood that swept towards the figure in black.

Wherever the killing sword passed, the sky was torn apart, all paths collapsed, and endless strange phenomena such as mountains of corpses and seas of blood appeared in the heavens, moving the world to tears.

At the same time, the black-clad figure who was setting up array patterns deep in the starry sky was suddenly awakened by the commotion of Lingbao Tianzun.

"what?"

"Lingbao Tianzun? How could he have returned against all odds?"

A hint of surprise appeared in the eyes of the figure in black. In the past, when he ruled the starry sky, he had also been to the ancient star of the Heavenly Soldiers and witnessed the Immortal Platform of the Spirit Treasure Celestial Venerable, which was about to be destroyed.

He witnessed the abilities of several Heavenly Venerables at the Heavenly Soldiers Ancient Star, attempting to save Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, but most of his efforts were in vain.

He also intervened at the time, protecting the last wisp of Lingbao Tianzun's primordial spirit.

However, as time went by, Lingbao Tianzun not only failed to defy fate and return, but his primordial spirit continued to dissolve.

I thought that after millions of years, the primordial spirit of this Lingbao Celestial Venerable would have long since vanished into the past.

Unexpectedly, after being silent for millions of years, he was able to return against all odds, and his cultivation level had even improved.

The figure in black waved his hand, unleashing a dazzling beam of celestial light that illuminated the boundless star field, instantly dismantling the Lingbao Celestial Venerable's methods.

"what?"

Lingbao Tianzun's pupils suddenly contracted as he stared in disbelief at the black-clad figure opposite him.

He hadn't held back at all in his attack, but unexpectedly, that figure effortlessly neutralized his power without even causing a ripple. "Who exactly are you?"

Lingbao Tianzun roared, and his mighty celestial power shook the starry sky and spread throughout the human realm.

Such strength would have taken them very far on the path to immortality, and they would certainly not be an ordinary person in ancient history.

Since his return against all odds, Lingbao Tianzun has learned about many famous ancient emperors and celestial beings of later generations.

However, the person who just made that move did not display his true Dao, clearly intending to conceal his identity.

Lord of the Underworld!

This was the first thought in Lingbao Tianzun's mind, after all, this Underworld Lord was the greatest source of the corpse calamity in the mythological era.

During his efforts to quell the corpse calamity, he attempted to expose the Lord of the Underworld and eliminate the source of this chaos, but he was ultimately unsuccessful.

It's not impossible that they might continue to commit such heinous acts as refining the human realm.

Lingbao Tianzun's eyes were filled with murderous intent as he stared intently at the black-clad figure opposite him, but he did not make the first move.

He could sense that the black-clad figure was far stronger than him, but because he was afraid of revealing his identity, he had not used his full strength just now.

He didn't even use his own ultimate technique or forbidden killing move.

For a moment, Lingbao Tianzun's eyes were filled with apprehension.

On the other side, the figure in black did not answer Lingbao Tianzun's question. Instead, he kept thinking to himself, "Who exactly helped Lingbao Tianzun return to the world?"
As for the claim that Lingbao Tianzun returned independently, that is absolutely impossible.

Someone must have intervened and pulled Lingbao Tianzun out of his despair.

"Who is it?"

"It disrupted my plans!"

The figure in black was equally furious. A Heavenly Emperor-level being who had suddenly returned had inadvertently uncovered his plan.

He originally intended to embed the array patterns deep into the world during an era without a Heavenly Emperor-level being in charge, and for this reason, he deliberately chose this time period.

But who would have thought that Lingbao Tianzun would defy fate and return, disrupting all his plans?

The person who secretly helped Lingbao Tianzun return especially ignited a nameless anger within him.

"Humph!"

"You cowardly rat, today is the day you die."

Seeing that the figure in black was slow to respond, Lingbao Tianzun grew impatient and immediately manipulated the Zhuxian Sword Formation, unleashing a series of sharp sword energies that rushed towards the figure in black.

In an instant, sword energy soared into the sky, unleashing unparalleled power and carrying the power to slay immortals, as it struck the figure in black.

"Hey!"

"It seems things won't end well today."

The figure in black sighed inwardly. His actions had already been discovered by the Celestial Venerable Lingbao. If he didn't eliminate him, he might never have the chance to set up array patterns again.

After all, although he was strong, the array patterns he set up could not be hidden from a Heavenly Emperor-level being.

Boom boom boom!
The next moment, a unique Daoist aura burst forth from the figure in black, as if the supreme power of the Emperor had awakened.

The myriad paths of heaven and earth resounded endlessly, and one after another, the laws of the Great Dao hung in the sky, creating endless wonders above the heavens.

At this moment, the black-clad figure's aura suddenly changed. All the laws of heaven and earth bowed down beneath his feet, and his vast aura engulfed the mortal world, as if he had transformed into an unparalleled emperor.

He stood atop the starry sky, as if heaven, earth, gods, and ghosts were all bowing down to him, a sight that was terrifying to the extreme.

In an instant, the changes deep within the universe shook the entire human realm, causing countless living beings to tremble.

"Emperor?"

"How is that possible? Didn't the Emperor perish on the path to immortality?"

"Can anyone tell me if this is true?"

All living beings gazed at that figure at the pinnacle of the universe, and the shock they felt was beyond words.

A peerless emperor who had long been acknowledged to have fallen has now reappeared in the mortal world after millions of years.

This figure was definitely not a manifestation of heaven and earth; the aura that commanded respect from heaven, earth, humans, gods, and ghosts was incredibly terrifying, making people unable to resist bowing down at his feet.

"Emperor!"

"He's really not dead?"

Inside the Immortal Tomb, the Celestial Venerable of Longevity looked at the terrifying figure in the sky and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

This power was too terrifying, far exceeding the mythological era. Even across endless time and space, the Eternal Celestial Venerable couldn't help but feel a sense of suffocation.

"So my initial guess was right!"

The Celestial Venerable of Immortality murmured to himself, for the Emperor's figure standing at the pinnacle of the starry sky was indeed real, the very Emperor who had once "fallen" at their hands.

Long ago, he had a vague feeling that the Emperor had not perished. Now that the Emperor has reappeared in the world, it confirms the conjecture of the Eternal Heavenly Venerable.

"Millions of years have passed, and the Emperor has not only not severed himself, but his strength is far more terrifying than in the mythical era. Could it be that we have really gone down the wrong path?"

A voice filled with resentment emanated from the mouth of the Celestial Venerable of Immortality.

As an ancient celestial being from the mythological era, he naturally knew that in order to verify the path to immortality, those ancient supreme beings had verified one path after another, and many of them had paid the price with their lives.

The first to be verified was the Tribulation-Transcending Celestial Venerable's ability to communicate with spirits through a corpse, and his return. Unfortunately, it seems that only the Tribulation-Transcending Celestial Venerable succeeded in this feat.

The second path is the path of transformation. The one who went the furthest was Lingbao Tianzun, but even Lingbao Tianzun, who lived four lifetimes in reverse, died in the starry sky, and after that, no one dared to follow this path again.

The third option was to attack the Path to Immortality and use it to enter the Immortal Realm, but the Heavenly Court's attack on the Path to Immortality also failed.
