The Heavenly Emperor of Chu

Chapter 17 Another Standoff
"How is this possible? The Gluttonous Supreme has fallen?"

"With just one move, the Taotie was completely destroyed? Is this really not a lie?"

"Unbelievable! Could it be yet another extraordinary figure comparable to an Emperor?"

The fall of a supreme being, a tragedy that shook the world, would be a momentous event in any period of ancient history.

But today is completely different. An ancient venerable who has reached the pinnacle of enlightenment and regained his former invincible Dao fruit cannot even withstand a single sword strike from the new emperor of the future. This is simply too astonishing.

At this moment, the many supreme beings, looking at the majestic figure standing proudly in the mythical battlefield, were all speechless for a moment.

They originally thought today would be a fierce battle, and that the new emperor Taotie and Taotie might both be severely injured, allowing them to reap the benefits.

Unexpectedly, things developed in a way that far exceeded their expectations.

Just as the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone was filled with fear, the hazy figure from the Mythical Battlefield made its move.

With a single step, a golden path lifted him up, surrounded by the Four Divine Beasts, and radiant light illuminated the universe. Celestial music echoed from the heavens, making him appear as if a celestial emperor were on a journey.

"The new emperor has just slain a peerless enemy on the mythical battlefield, displaying boundless divine might. Where is he headed?"

When powerful beings from the universe saw Chu Tianshu's grand and ostentatious departure, they were immediately filled with doubt.

In particular, he was carrying a blood-stained supreme imperial weapon, and his killing intent pierced through the universe, causing the heavens and earth to turn upside down.

Soon, a powerful figure recognized the direction Chu Tianshu was heading: the infamous Burial Emperor Star in the human realm—the Ancient Star of the Big Dipper.

"That direction? Is it the ancient Big Dipper? Could it be that the new emperor is still not willing to let this go?"

"No way! The new emperor is so domineering, is he really not afraid of those beings from the forbidden zones coming out in full force?"

"Hmph! How could a mere insect from a forbidden zone be a match for the new emperor? Don't you see that even the Taotie Supreme, a descendant of the true dragon, was no match for the new emperor's sword?"

Across the universe, numerous powerful figures once again focused their attention on the ancient star of the Big Dipper, sparking heated discussions.

However, most people are not optimistic about Chu Tianshu's actions, believing that he is too domineering and may attract the combined attack of the Supreme Beings of the Forbidden Zone.

On the other side, regardless of what the cultivators speculated, Chu Tianshu didn't care and continued to charge towards the ancient star of the Big Dipper.

In the desolate and dim cosmos, a dazzling pearl hangs in the sky. The entire star displays five colors, resembling a colossal five-colored altar.

At the same time, this star also exudes dozens of supreme Daoist charms, all of which were deliberately left behind by the Daoists of the past.

The Ancient Star of the Big Dipper, also known as the Burial Emperor Star, was created by a mythical celestial being who slew a nascent chaotic body.

He used his still-developing chaotic body to build a massive immortal array, hoping to use it to attack the path to immortality and break into the immortal realm.

It is obvious that this mythical celestial being failed, and the celestial array did not achieve his goal.

However, later supreme beings deduced that the path to immortality would appear on the ancient star of the Big Dipper countless ages later.

Therefore, the life-forbidden zones that were originally scattered throughout the universe all gathered together on this life-bearing star.

For this reason, the ancient star of the Big Dipper was also known as the "Burial Star of Emperors".

Suddenly, a vast and boundless golden light descended from the heavens, reaching the sky above the ancient Big Dipper star.

Divine light, shining billions of miles, illuminated the entire dark and desolate universe. The vast laws of the ultimate Dao, like a boundless ocean, instantly submerged this ancient star.

Immediately, a majestic figure descended from the ends of the earth, step by step, landing in the Reincarnation Sea of ​​the Eastern Wilderness.

In the boundless sea of ​​reincarnation, the waves surge and roll, and the waves bloom one after another, crushing time and space.

"The human emperor, the Taotie Supreme, has already fallen at your hands. What are you doing in the Sea of ​​Reincarnation?" A cold voice rang in Chu Tianshu's ears as soon as he entered the Sea of ​​Reincarnation.

Immediately, a supreme divine thought manifested itself, and a terrifying extreme pressure instantly spread out, confronting Chu Tianshu from afar, as if they were about to start a fight at the slightest disagreement.

"not enough!"

Chu Tianshu held the blood-stained Purple Cloud Sword, his eyes indifferent.

"Although I have already killed the Gluttonous Supreme, he was born in the Sea of ​​Reincarnation after all, and you have an inescapable responsibility for that."

Upon hearing this, the manifested supreme divine consciousness roared, "Human Emperor, do not push your luck! Do you really think my Samsara Sea is afraid of you?"

"If you really force us to emerge from the world, even if you have overwhelming power, you should know the principle that many ants can kill an elephant."

"You must understand that the Sea of ​​Reincarnation is not the only forbidden zone for life in this world. If you really reach that point, you will surely perish prematurely!"

Chu Tianshu scoffed, his face showing disdain. "That's good. I just hadn't had enough fun killing people. Why don't you all come out together and let me taste the bitterness of defeat?"

It wasn't that Chu Tianshu was arrogant, but rather that he was well aware of the personalities of these supreme beings in forbidden zones.

These supreme beings in the forbidden zones are like hyenas in the mortal world, only knowing how to bully the weak and fear the strong.

If you act with overwhelming strength, they will naturally behave with their tails between their legs and dare not show the slightest disrespect.

But if you show even the slightest sign of weakness, they will immediately swarm you and devour you completely.

Chu Tianshu has just attained enlightenment, holds the Heavenly Heart Mark, and is in harmony with the myriad paths of heaven and earth. His strength is increasing every second, and he is far from reaching his peak.

To expect the other supreme beings from the forbidden zones to emerge and join forces to kill Chu Tianshu is simply wishful thinking.

Even if he did have this plan, it would be in his later years when his health and vitality were declining.

Upon hearing this, the Supreme God on the other side immediately fell silent, the scene of Chu Tianshu killing the Taotie Supreme just now still vivid in his mind.

It would be absolutely impossible for them to be born now and fight this peerless warrior.

With this in mind, the supreme beings in the Sea of ​​Reincarnation began to secretly discuss the matter.

"Don't be impulsive. This person is currently riding high on his momentum and carries the power to slay the Taotie. If we really fight, we will definitely suffer losses."

"Indeed. At this moment, he holds the Heavenly Heart Mark, and the myriad paths of heaven and earth greatly amplify his power. If a fight breaks out, it is inevitable that several fellow Daoists will be lost, which is really not worth it."

"That's right. Don't forget what our purpose is in lying in wait here. We must not let a mere brute ruin our path to immortality."

"Hmph, the human emperor has bullied me too much. When he is old, I will definitely avenge him."

On the other hand, Chu Tianshu did not take the initiative to make a move.

On the one hand, he is currently in the prime of his life, and few supreme beings dare to emerge and fight him, so he cannot achieve much success.

On the other hand, after a long period of time, the human race has finally had a ruler who has attained enlightenment once again.

At this time, the power of the ancient races had not yet completely declined. Chu Tianshu had to completely defeat the ancient races and bring them down to the mortal realm during this period, laying a solid foundation for the future prosperity of the human race's great emperors.

It should be noted that during the reign of Emperor Ye, although the entire human race had risen to prominence, the records of the early ancient times were vague and unclear, even less so than those of the Primordial Era and the Mythological Era.

Chu Tianshu was certain that in the early stages of the Desolate Ancient Era, those human emperors must have paid an unimaginable price for the rise of the human race in later generations, which is why there are so few records of those emperors in the early Desolate Ancient Era.

From both a moral and logical standpoint, this is not the best time to start the decisive battle.
