Chapter 426 Looking Back at My Hometown
The battlefield above the heavens gained a brief period of peace.

Those eerie immortal emperors retreated to the eerie plateau and temporarily ceased harassing the heavens.

With some free time, Xiao Ping'an decided to return to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

He wanted to check how things were going over there, so he wouldn't go astray.

Based on the timeline in the original text, Ye Qingxian should be about to be born.

In the original text, this extraordinary woman, who was hailed as having the greatest talent for cultivation throughout history, was personally obliterated by the mysterious progenitor before she could even grow up.

Even if the Desolate Emperor and the Leaf Emperor joined forces, they could not revive him.

Finally, it was placed on the sacrificial altar that it was barely revived.

Before leaving, he sensed the special state of the Immortal Emperor.

I took a look along the river of time.

He was also surprised to discover the Lotus of Eternal Reincarnation.

For a moment, he couldn't tell which one was the mother.

However, relatively speaking, the Immortal Emperor seems to have a stronger aura, more like the mother plant.

The Lotus of Eternal Reincarnation in Meng Tianzheng's hand was more like a seedling.

After reflecting on his experience there for a while, he left.

He carefully made his way down to the lower realm.

Of course he has to be careful.

After all, he was a Celestial Emperor who had registered in the strange plateau, so he had to be careful to avoid revealing his hometown.

He deliberately underwent multiple time-space shifts, using the urn to conceal his presence, and completely disappeared from everyone's sight.

Then he slowly returned to his hometown.

This time, he returned via a different route.

He did not descend upon the Boundary Sea, but instead descended upon the Ultimate Ancient Land.

At this time, after Emperor Bone left, the Ultimate Ancient Land was temporarily taken over by Dark Emperor Bone.

Surprisingly, this place has become somewhat vibrant under his control.

Of course, the so-called vibrant life is not real.

Because he was here, he actually raised some dark creatures for those peerless geniuses to use for training.

He even deliberately used the dark essence within his body to corrupt some people, hoping they would also study how to utilize this dark essence.

It is hoped that they, like the Burial King in the Burial Domain, can break free from the darkness and become true Immortal Kings.

It should be noted that among all the heavens and the myriad realms, the Burial Kings of these Burial Domains are quite famous.

Because they truly reached the realm of Immortal King through strange substances, and then broke free from it.

Therefore, this Dark Emperor Bone Bro is very interested in this question.

At this time, he was not interested in Earth, nor was he thinking about replicating the success of the Desolate Emperor and the Leaf Emperor.

Because Ye Fan had not yet truly grown up at this time.

Although he has already become a powerful Immortal King, he is still a long way from becoming a powerful sacrificial master.

At this moment, what Dark Emperor Bone Bro most wanted to cultivate were those Dark Immortal Emperors.

Or rather, it's about cultivating a king to be buried.

On this day, Xiao Ping'an, who suddenly descended upon the Ultimate Ancient Land, emitted supreme Dao fluctuations.

A terrifying aura instantly shook the entire Ancient Land.

The numerous dark creatures trembled with fear upon sensing that terrifying aura.

When Xiao Ping'an first arrived, he thought that the darkness had invaded again.

In the blink of an eye, he understood what had happened.

Looking at the numerous dark creatures, he nodded in satisfaction.

It seems that this Dark Emperor Bone Bro has quite a few ideas.

He really wants to become a master of nurturing skills.

In the original text, during the Holy Ruins era, the Dark Emperor Bone Brother occupied Earth, constantly switching between the Great Wilderness and technological civilization, hoping to cultivate super strong individuals like the Desolate Heavenly Emperor and the Leaf Heavenly Emperor.

Now, Xiao Ping'an was surprised to find that this Dark Emperor Bone Bro had actually started playing with dark cultivation techniques.

They deliberately corrupted some of the creatures in this world, intending to cultivate them into Burial Kings.

Furthermore, they captured some dark creatures from other worlds to give to the absolute geniuses of this world for practice.

The terrifying ancient land was forcibly turned into a training ground by the Dark Empire.

Emperor Bone is still fighting on the battlefield of the heavens. I wonder if Emperor Bone knows that his dark clone has done so many crazy things.

This Dark Emperor Bone Bro is still very aloof; he's different from that Emperor Bone Bro.

Xiao Ping'an had once dealt with Dark Emperor Bone Brother, but this Dark Emperor Bone Brother wasn't as enthusiastic as Emperor Bone Brother. He merely nodded and exchanged a few words.

Xiao Ping'an then left.

Only after sensing that terrifyingly holy aura vanish in an instant did the dark creatures rise to their feet.

Their faces were filled with shock.

These dark creatures had, of course, heard some things from the Dark Emperor, Bone Bro.

Of course I know that terrifying aura of an immortal emperor.

The numerous dark creatures had no idea who it was. Only those creatures in this world that had been deliberately corrupted vaguely guessed that it might be Xiao Ping'an who had returned.

However, they dared not mention Xiao Ping'an's name casually.

After all, Xiao Ping'an is already an Immortal Emperor. If anyone dares to mention him, he will know instantly.

The thought of Xiao Ping'an returning from the battlefield of the heavens filled many powerful figures with disbelief.

Rumble.

Whether in the Immortal Realm or the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, all emitted earth-shattering ripples of the Great Dao after sensing Xiao Ping'an's aura.

The World Trees in the two worlds are at different levels: one is at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, and the other is at the Immortal King level.

They were filled with gratitude towards Xiao Ping'an.

Upon seeing Xiao Ping'an return to this world, they all emitted waves of excited divine sense.

Countless cultivators stared in shock at the distant point of light.

Amidst the endless light, a majestic and imposing figure slowly emerged.

As Xiao Ping'an's figure materialized, the Immortal Realm and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths trembled violently.

To everyone's astonishment, the World Tree was actually cheering.

Endless celestial light blotted out the sky and covered the entire world.

To everyone's surprise, a supreme and majestic aura emanated from the area, causing all of them to tremble and feel an urge to submit.

Even a Celestial King cannot compare to this person's aura.

That immense aura reminded everyone of the dark invasion of the past.

However, the light emanating from this person was so sacred and peaceful, without any malice.

Moreover, everyone felt that aura was very familiar.

People quickly realized that it was very likely that the Overlord had returned.

As endless purple light surged forth, the long river of time manifested itself, swirling around.

His figure seemed to span the past, present, and future, as if he had stepped out from the long river of time.

Within the forbidden zones of various holy lands and aristocratic families, beams of divine light shot into the sky.

They flew towards that figure on their own initiative.

They had already sensed it; it was Xiao Ping'an.

The Celestial Emperor has returned.

To everyone's surprise, the Ancestral Star of Overlord Body suddenly erupted with an incomparably mysterious radiance.

One after another, streaks of purple divine light pierced through the world's barrier, flying outwards towards the mysterious shadow.

"Ancestor!"

“Ancestors!”

In a daze, everyone heard exclamations of surprise.

People looked at the Fourth Ancestor, who had become a mortal immortal, and confirmed that this person was Xiao Ping'an.

The four immortals born on the ancestral star of the Overlord Body are Xiao Yun Gui, Xiao Moling, Xiao Fu Yun, and Xiao Dong.

They looked at Xiao Ping'an with eager eyes.

Not long after, the Great Phoenix, Xiao Tianhuang, the Little Phoenix, Xiao Xingyao, and Xiao Xuanyuan all flew over.

Xiao Tianchu and Xiao Shentong, having also become immortals of the mortal world, flew to Xiao Ping'an's side.

These have become the descendants of the Immortals of the Mortal World, and are Xiao Ping'an's most outstanding descendants.

Of course, Xiao Ping'an was also surprised to find that his family had produced two outstanding descendants: Xiao Xian, who possessed the Chaotic Body, and Xiao Yishui, who possessed the Innate Overlord Body Dao Embryo.

Xiao Yishui actually married Ye Xian, the Chaos Body from the original story.

Ye Yishui, who possesses the innate sacred body, married Xiao Xian, a member of her family who possesses the chaotic body.

Xiao Ping'an looked at these outstanding descendants and was very satisfied.

"It seems that you have all been very diligent in your cultivation while I was away."

"I never imagined that so many people have already become immortals in the mortal world."

Although Xiao Yishui and Xiao Xian have not yet become immortals of the mortal world, given their special physiques, it is almost a certainty that they will become immortals of the mortal world in the future.

Today, the Great Phoenix, the Little Phoenix, and Xiao Tianhuang, these three descendants with phoenix blood, have undergone multiple transformations in their bloodline after becoming immortals in the mortal world.

They have reached or surpassed the level of the Ten Ancient Fiends. Their strength is extremely formidable.

Xiao Yungui, Xiao Xuanyuan, Xiao Moling, Xiao Xingyao, Xiao Dong, and Xiao Fuyun inherited Xiao Ping'an's incomparably pure Heavenly Tyrant Blood.

Their talent for cultivation is also astonishing.

Those who can successfully navigate the path to immortality in the mortal world can all be considered exceptional geniuses.

If they successfully transform into Immortal Kings in the future, they can all become powerful figures at or above the level of the Ten Ancient Fiends.

Yes, the Azure Sky Tyrant Blood is indeed that powerful and domineering.

With their current strength, becoming a Celestial King shouldn't be far off.

They are probably still accumulating experience and preparing for a breakthrough, aiming to become powerful beings at the level of Immortal Kings.

If that's the case, after cultivating for a while longer, he can reach his peak state and be qualified to challenge for the Quasi-Immortal Emperor title.

Xiao Ping'an carefully examined the bodies of these descendants and was very satisfied.

"Once you become Celestial Kings, you can go to the Heavenly Battlefield for training."

"There are countless paths of civilization evolution in the heavens. You will grow faster there and may reach a higher realm in the future."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Fighting against darkness and the bizarre is everyone's inescapable responsibility.

As descendants of the Immortal Emperor Xiao Ping'an, they share the same attitude towards darkness and the bizarre.

As Xiao Ping'an's descendants, Xiao Ping'an would not raise them to be delicate flowers in a greenhouse. They should be tempered and endured hardships.

You can't let them grow into bean sprouts in a greenhouse.

Xiao Ping'an could certainly protect some of his descendants, but he really didn't want them to become like bean sprouts.

"Ancestor, do you know what the situation is like on the battlefield of the heavens now?"

"It's alright. The enemies on the Heavenly Battlefield have temporarily retreated. The ones fighting there are basically Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperors and Dark Immortal Kings."

"The war there has temporarily come to an end. I have taken some time to return here and will stay for quite some time, perhaps ten thousand years, perhaps tens of thousands of years."

"I'll also give everyone some pointers on their cultivation!"

Upon hearing Xiao Ping'an's words, everyone's faces lit up with surprise and delight.

After all, this ancestor always came and went in a hurry.

It's rare to have such a long opportunity to get together like this.

"Ancestor, what is your current strength?"

"How far have you progressed in the Immortal Emperor realm?"

How far am I from the legendary realm of sacrificial cultivation?

Everyone was very curious about Xiao Ping'an.

They knew that Xiao Ping'an was very strong and cultivated very quickly; he was already an Immortal Emperor.

But now that they know there are even higher realms, they also hope that Xiao Ping'an can break through to the next level.

They all looked at Xiao Ping'an with curious eyes.

Seeing the curious expressions on the faces of his many descendants, Xiao Ping'an nodded.

"I have indeed already become an Immortal Emperor."

"Now they have already come a long way in the Immortal Emperor realm."

"The Immortal Emperor realm is roughly divided into four minor realms, and I've now reached the fourth realm."

"That is, the great tyrannical dragon that people describe among the immortal emperors."

"However, there is still a long way to go before the ritual is successfully completed."

"At least for now, if I were to try the ritual, I feel the chances of success are slim, and I need more time to mature."

These were all his own descendants, and Xiao Ping'an did not hide anything from them.

Everyone was shocked after hearing this.

They knew their ancestor was very strong, but they never expected him to have reached this point.

Ordinary people would naturally not know so many secrets, but as Xiao Ping'an's descendants, they had long been exposed to these secrets.

They were very excited to hear that this ancestor actually had the opportunity to reach the Sacrifice Dao realm.

They also hoped that Xiao Ping'an could become someone like the Desolate Emperor.

"There are too many powerful members of the strange races now, making it very difficult to deal with them."

"To completely eliminate them is not something that can be accomplished overnight."

"I am accumulating and refining my skills now, hoping to become stronger in the future."

Only with sufficient strength can one truly turn the tide.

"The reason why those dark and eerie invasions, as well as other eerie invasions, are now is because the powerful members of those eerie races also want to train their troops and select the more outstanding members to advance."

"So you shouldn't be idle either. If you have the chance in the future, go and train with those powerful dark beings."

"You don't need to worry about the Heavenly Battlefield collapsing."

"As long as the Desolate Emperor and the Pollen Empress are still here, as long as I and those Immortal Emperors are still here, we will firmly hold the line of defense."

"There will never be a dark and eerie incident like last time, where someone took advantage of a loophole and invaded this world."

Xiao Ping'an carefully observed the entire world and, in the blink of an eye, saw through everything that had happened since he left all these years.

It was deduced almost instantly.

Over the years, the Immortal Realm and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths have become increasingly prosperous, and the number of peerless geniuses has increased.

More and more powerful individuals are embarking on the path of immortality in the mortal world.

Nowadays, there are more and more powerful beings becoming immortals in the mortal world.

Xiao Ping'an even observed that the Ruthless Great Emperor and his brother had actually become Immortal Kings.

They also observed Ye Fan's astonishing transformation, how he had undergone ten transformations and reached the pinnacle of immortality.

Now he has become a Celestial King.

Xiao Ping'an couldn't help but marvel at Ye Fan's strength.

Ye Fan truly lives up to his reputation as the protagonist of the original story. Despite being suppressed by so many powerful figures, he still managed to stand out in the end.

Moreover, it has reached a state that no one else has ever reached.

In today's world, there are also some originally ordinary geniuses who, step by step, have laid an incredibly solid foundation in the Dao and have actually achieved a breakthrough by overtaking others.

A typical example is Li Ruoyu.

Now, Li Ruoyu has also embarked on the path of immortality in the mortal world.

Of course, Xiao Ping'an also discovered some surprising things, such as the Peacock King, the Crimson Dragon Taoist, the Azure Dragon King, and the Crow Taoist.

These supporting characters who died early in the original story have now grown up, become emperors, and embarked on the path of the mortal world.

It seems that the butterfly effect caused by Xiao Ping'an is still very significant.

In particular, he generously imparted numerous cultivation techniques and secret arts to everyone, and even published the theory of the Red Dust Immortal Transformation.

It seems that some people are not without the opportunity to reach a higher level.

Given enough opportunities, they too can shine brightly.

The current Emperor Wushi is performing exceptionally well on the battlefield of the heavens; his performance is truly astonishing.

He has already reached the peak of the Immortal King realm and has begun to attempt to break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.

The trio from the original story, the Ruthless Empress and Ye Fan, have now become powerful Immortal Kings.

Their success was entirely within Xiao Ping'an's expectations.

After all, they are the three Heavenly Emperors in the original text.

As for the ruthless empress's brother whom he had saved by chance, this was beyond Xiao Ping'an's expectations.

Hua Wuque, the ruthless empress's brother, now looks almost exactly like Ye Fan.

Apart from the difference in their primordial spirit aura, they are almost identical.

Even the ruthless Empress believed that if her brother's memories were injected into Ye Fan's body, then Ye Fan would also be her brother.

This is probably why the Ruthless Empress and Ye Fan have such a good relationship.

Hua Wuque also treated Ye Fan as a younger brother.

It was destined that Hua Wuque would also grow into a Celestial King, and he would become a Celestial King after successfully transforming from a Mortal Immortal, making his strength extremely astonishing.

Then Xiao Ping'an thought of the Emperor.

Someone once said in the original text that Ye Fan was a flower similar to the Emperor.

Looking at the Emperor's behavior at the top, Xiao Ping'an felt that what he said might actually be true.

The current Emperor Venerable is also at the peak of the Immortal King realm, and may break through to the realm of Heaven and Earth at any time, just like the Great Emperor Wushi.

The performances of the Heavenly Man Gu Tuo and the Azure Lotus Immortal King were also astonishing.

They were also at the peak of the Immortal King realm. When Xiao Ping'an returned, he saw that they had already given birth to a faint wisp of Quasi-Immortal Emperor light.

The Azure Lotus Immortal King was truly saved by Xiao Ping'an.

Without Xiao Ping'an, the Azure Lotus Immortal King in the original story would have been nothing more than the Azure Emperor who died young.

Due to Xiao Ping'an's influence, by a twist of fate, the Azure Emperor reconnected with his former Dao Fruit and became the Azure Lotus Immortal King.

He is both the Azure Emperor and the Azure Lotus Immortal King.

They are essentially one person.

Thinking that he might follow closely behind and become a Quasi-Immortal Emperor like the Great Emperor Wushi, Xiao Ping'an felt very satisfied.

It felt like I had personally nurtured the Azure Lotus Immortal King, which gave me a great sense of accomplishment.

They even hoped that this Azure Lotus Immortal King would one day become the Azure Lotus Immortal Emperor.
