I, the Chaos Being, joined the chat group at the start.

The lonely old man, Gai Jiuyou, asked, "Who is your ancestor, young friend?"

Descendant of the Demon Emperor: "A lotus blooms across the eternal blue sky! The Azure Emperor!"

The lonely old man Gai Jiuyou: "..."

Wudang Wang Ye: "Alright, it's a game between acquaintances!"

Xu Yi: "A gathering of acquaintances!"

The lonely old man, Gai Jiuyou, said, "I am indeed that person... but I am no longer at my peak."

Gai Jiuyou sighed softly. Having lived for over nine thousand years, his vital energy had long since dried up, and his body was decaying, making it difficult for him to regain his peak combat power.

The emperor's lifespan was only a little over ten thousand years. He lived happily for nearly ten thousand years, but his lifespan was running out.

Moreover, the injury he suffered back then has not healed; instead, it has worsened.

In order to preserve his life, Gai Jiuyou chose to deliberately drop his cultivation level, and the five secret realms dispersed from their fused state, now roughly equivalent to the combat strength of a Great Sage.

Because if one chooses to regain their peak combat power, they will die completely after the battle, exhausting their life force.

In fact, this state is similar to the Supreme One's self-inflicted death, both of which involve choosing to fall in realm. However, Gai Jiuyou does not need to devour life essence, and can prolong his life by falling in realm.

Eastern Wilderness God King: "Senior, is it really you?"

The lonely old man, Gai Jiuyou, asked, "Who are you?"

Eastern Wilderness God King: "Jiang Taixu of the Jiang family!"

The lonely old man Gai Jiuyou said, "So it was you. I thought you were dead. You haven't appeared for thousands of years. What a pity for such a peerless genius."

Eastern Wilderness God King: "Uh..."

Jiang Taixu's smile froze.

Black Emperor: "Alright, you're making it sound so mysterious. So, who exactly is Gai Jiuyou?"

The Black Emperor truly didn't recognize Gai Jiuyou; it was still sleeping ten thousand years ago.

Holy Maiden Didou: "This senior is the first peerless expert to break through to the Great Emperor realm since the Azure Emperor!"

Black Emperor: "Nonsense! In the post-ancient era, even a saint is hard to come by. To become an emperor? Especially since the Azure Emperor's Great Dao suppression is still in effect!"

Saintess Didou: "So it failed."

Black Emperor: "To break through to the Great Emperor realm, you must at least reach the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor, complete the final leap, the Great Dragon Enters the Immortal Platform, and the Five Great Secret Realms merge into one. Once you reach that level, you can attempt to break through to the Great Emperor realm!"

The lonely old man, Gai Jiuyou, asked, "You seem to know a lot about this?"

Eastern Wilderness God King: "Senior, you may not know this, but Fellow Daoist Black Emperor is the pet of the Great Emperor Wushi."

The lonely old man Gai Jiuyou: "!! So that's how it is, no wonder. Back then, I spent more than a thousand years cultivating to the peak of the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor. In my final leap, I stepped halfway into the Emperor Realm, but unfortunately I was knocked down and suffered a Dao injury."

Black Emperor: "Six, he's a ruthless person! To be able to break through to the Emperor Realm in this environment is impressive."

The suppression of heaven and earth in the post-ancient era was terrifying. In particular, the Great Emperor Wushi's research into the secrets of becoming an immortal triggered a taboo, which further intensified the suppression of heaven and earth. The ancient era officially entered the post-ancient era.

Under such circumstances, the difficulty of attaining enlightenment was immense, far greater than in any previous era.

The lonely old man, Gai Jiuyou, asked, "Young friend Jiang, why have you disappeared for so many years without any news?"

Eastern Wilderness God King: "I am ashamed. Four thousand years ago, in order to further my cultivation, I went to find the magic weapon of my ancestor, Emperor Hengyu, the Fire-Separating Divine Furnace, hoping to comprehend the Emperor's Dao. Therefore, I went to Purple Mountain and was trapped inside for four thousand years. I only recently came out."

The lonely old man, Gai Jiuyou, said, "So that's how it is. It's so complicated."

Holy Maiden Didou: "Senior Gai has joined the group. Young Master Xu Yi, are you feeling any pressure?"

Wudang King Ye: "What, could it be that this Senior Jiuyou is even more powerful than Brother Yi?"

Black Emperor: "Isn't that obvious? He's at the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor, and his final leap will put him halfway into the Emperor realm. Even though he failed, his strength is still comparable to that of a Supreme Being in a Forbidden Zone. He might even be able to fight to the death of a Supreme Being."

Gai Jiuyou: "Not at all. I am already nine thousand years old, my blood and qi are depleted, and my life force is dwindling. In addition, due to the effects of my Dao injury, I no longer possess the strength of a Quasi-Emperor. At most, I can exert the strength of a Great Sage. I am no longer suitable for combat and can only be considered as clinging to life. By the way, who is Fellow Daoist Xu Yi?"

Eastern Wilderness God King: "The Great Sage of the planet beyond the stars, not yet thirty years old, a young and outstanding talent, is my dearest friend!"

Xu Yi: "Great Sage? I'm not."

Holy Maiden Didou: "Don't be modest, Young Master Xu Yi."

Descendant of the Demon Emperor: "Indeed, no need to be modest. Your strength is evident to all. You are my strongest opponent in the future!"

The Holy Maiden of Miaoyu Nunnery said, "Young master, the capable should not shirk their responsibilities."

Xu Yi: "I really am not!"

Black Emperor: "Old Master, this excessive modesty is arrogance."

Wudang Wang Ye: "Is it possible that Brother Yi wasn't being modest, and that Brother Yi has broken through again?"

Eastern Wilderness God King: "Impossible, he's only just become a Great Saint, another breakthrough would be..."

Di Dou Saintess: "Yes, we are at Young Master Xu Yi's house. If he breaks through, there will definitely be unusual phenomena."

Xu Yi: "I've managed to break through to the Quasi-Emperor realm by sheer luck!"

Imperial Saintess: "?"

Descendant of the Demon Emperor: "?"

Black King: "Woof woof woof!"

My favorite drink is animal milk: "Wow!"

The Holy Maiden of the Myriad Desires Hermitage: "!!! Young Master, you are truly amazing!"

Eastern Wilderness God King: "? Huh??"

Xu Yi: "It's alright, isn't it!"

Eastern Wilderness God King: "Very good, very good!"

Gai Jiuyou: "So, can I be considered a quasi-emperor who is not yet thirty years old?"

Eastern Wilderness God King: "Yes."

Gai Jiuyou: "Defying the heavens!"

Didou Saintess: "Stop chatting, let's meet at the Great Dao Space Martial Arts Arena instead."

Gai Jiuyou: "?? What is this?"

Eastern Wilderness God King: "Is that so, senior..."

Jiang Taixu gave an explanation.

……

The Great Dao Space Martial Arts Arena.

The vast white jade square stretches as far as the eye can see, with an endless universe in the distance, planets dotting the sky, and countless stars shining brightly.

Jiang Taixu, Yao Xi, Yan Ruyu, Hei Huang, Xu Yi, Wang Ye, Ying Zheng, Keisha, Luo Feng, and others appeared together.

"A real breakthrough?" Jiang Taixu took a deep breath, his eyes filled with shock.

"Well, it's alright. You broke through like that." Xu Yi smiled warmly.

He put it simply: what happened in the outside world was but a lifetime in the vast dream of eternity, nearly 20,000 years.

To be honest, Xu Yi is still feeling the effects of his previous life, and he has a strong urge to run straight to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Zone and embrace the ruthless man.

“Strong, Young Master Xu Yi, please protect me for the next ten thousand years!” Yao Xi said earnestly, with a charming smile.

"You're too kind, you can do it too," Xu Yi replied.

At this moment, a white beam of light appeared, and a slender figure walked out from within the light.

A woman dressed in a snow-white long dress and wearing a veil appeared.

The woman was beautiful and noble, with a pure and holy temperament; she could only be admired from afar and not profaned.

Her long, glossy black hair reached her waist, and her skin was as smooth as ice and as delicate as jade.

Her slender, long legs were faintly visible, and her tiny waist was breathtakingly beautiful.

This is the Holy Maiden of the Heaven-Mending Sect!

"Fatty girl!" The little one exclaimed instinctively, his eyes wide open.

……

P.S.: Requesting votes. I changed a group member.

Chapter 85 Yuechan the Fat Girl, Sun Wukong's Birth

Yuechan appeared in the Great Dao Martial Arts Space. It must be said that as a saintess, her temperament and beauty are unparalleled in the world.

However beautiful the saintess may be, to Little Dot she is just a fat woman.

"Wow, hello fat girl."

The little one greeted everyone with bright eyes, looking very happy.

Upon hearing the words "fat woman," Yuechan frowned, revealing her displeasure.

However, given the current unclear situation, she maintained a calm and indifferent expression.
