Primordial Era: Becoming the Great Emperor of Humanity from the Start

Chapter 224 The True "Great Freedom of Other Transformation"!

Emperor Ye arrived riding on a cauldron, ultimately slaying his opponent and displaying unparalleled prowess, leaving countless powerful figures in awe.

Even An Lan, the Immortal King, was unwilling to fight a powerful figure like Ye Tiandi, and was filled with apprehension towards him.

Fortunately, Emperor Ye was not a powerful figure in this timeline. If he were to attack the Immortal King An Lan, it would inevitably trigger a backlash from the River of Time.

This is actually somewhat similar to Jiang Heng's situation. Jiang Heng does not belong to this space-time and cannot interfere with anything in this world.

Otherwise, it would not have been difficult for Jiang Heng to suppress and kill An Lan, who was merely an immortal king.

The Immortal King Anlan also knew this, so he did not attack Ye Tiandi. He only wanted to cross the Heavenly Abyss and descend to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Jiang Heng had already returned to "Perfect World" from the endless space-time continuum, and his gains this time were considerable.

However, Jiang Heng doesn't have time to digest these gains right now, because the real show is about to begin, which is also extremely important to him.

At this moment, the Desolate Emperor was in a very special state. He looked at the desert and stared at the battlefield, but his eyes were somewhat empty, as if he was lost in thought.

Jiang Heng looked at the Desolate Emperor and found that his empty eyes seemed very deep, as if they could absorb a person's soul.

This is a dream of returning to the ancient immortal era, a divine journey through the vast void. The soul of the Desolate Emperor seems to have left his body, as if flying through one time and space after another, wandering among the countless heavens throughout the ages.

In Jiang Heng's eyes, immortal energy was rising from the head of the Desolate Emperor, transforming into flowers. On one of the flowers on the left, a small figure sat cross-legged, as if sitting in the past.

On the flower in the middle, there is a small person sitting cross-legged, but he is locked by a primordial energy and it is difficult for him to break free.

In addition, the Great Dao Flower that formed on the right side, now that it has bloomed, actually revealed a slightly blurry figure, very indistinct, with its light and shadow uncertain.

The tiny figure was blurry, sitting cross-legged on the flower of the Great Dao, as if looking down from the future, revealing endless mystery and creation.

"The Great Freedom of Others is beginning to show signs of progress. I've been looking forward to this moment!" Jiang Heng murmured to himself, his face full of excitement.

For Jiang Heng, the battle at Diguan was an unparalleled opportunity, not only because he was able to witness Ye Tiandi, a quasi-immortal emperor.

This is because during the battle at the Imperial Pass, the Desolate Emperor will touch a drop of blood from the River of Time, thus manifesting his power at the level of a Celestial King.

This drop of blood originally belonged to the Desolate Heaven Emperor. It was one of the billions of drops of essence blood that were scattered in the river of time when the Desolate Heaven Emperor fought against the Corpse Immortal Emperor.

This drop of essence blood cultivated to the realm of Immortal King in an unknown era, and once followed Emperor Ye Tian through the river of time, eventually arriving in this space-time.

When this drop of blood is awakened, the "Great Freedom of Others" will manifest on the body of the Desolate Emperor.

For Jiang Heng, who also cultivates the "Great Freedom of Others" technique, seeing the Desolate Emperor use this technique in person was naturally something he was extremely looking forward to.

Even though the Desolate Emperor had not yet reached the True Immortal realm, and even though his current "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Technique" was still somewhat ambiguous.

But for Jiang Heng, even if it's just a glimpse through a tube, even if he can only see part of the mystery, it will still be an unparalleled opportunity.

Under Jiang Heng's expectant gaze, a blinding light rose from the walls of the Imperial Pass, and the Desolate Emperor couldn't help but let out a low roar.

Within the body of the Desolate Emperor, a drop of blood appeared, a dazzling and piercing blood bead, emerging from his body.

At that moment, the blood began to spread, as if it were about to transform into a vast sea, unleashing boundless power that shook the Imperial Pass and the Great Desert.

Jiang Heng's gaze pierced through the void and descended upon the Desolate Emperor, clearly seeing the Desolate Emperor's current internal condition.

The drop of blood expanded within the Desolate Emperor's body before rapidly shrinking, dripping onto the Great Dao Flower above his head and flowing between the three flowers.

The first flower, like a tiny person from the past suddenly opening their eyes, is all the more mysterious.

The second one, the little figure that was locked by the primordial energy, struggled violently and actually gained freedom from the shackles. The primordial energy enveloped him and became his guardian, but he was not comfortable.

The third flower, as the blood droplet rolled over it, made the blurry figure sitting cross-legged on it clear, shaking heaven and earth.

With a roar, the Desolate Emperor's black hair flew wildly. He suddenly looked up, his eyes becoming empty, as if he had become a different person.

In addition, several reincarnation seals appeared on his body and all moved to the top of his head, evolving the profound meaning of reincarnation.

Suddenly, several reincarnation seals spun violently, enveloping the three little figures together and then merging them into one.

Finally, the drop of blood seeped into the body of the only tiny figure, and then rushed into the body of the Desolate Emperor.

A boundless, sacred light erupted, and the Desolate Emperor's body burned fiercely, like a war god reborn from the ashes, resurrected from countless years ago.

Then, the divine light shone again, as if it had connected with the future once more. With supreme divine power, it descended, and the Desolate Emperor appeared so dazzling at this moment.

Emperor Ye, riding on the cauldron, soared into the sky and stood at the crack in the river of time, gazing silently into the distance, no longer uttering a word.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Emperor Ye's gaze lingered on the void where Jiang Heng was for a moment.

Jiang Heng seemed to sense something as well. In fact, when Jiang Heng traveled through layers of time and space to watch Ye Tiandi's battle, Ye Tiandi should have already discovered some clues.

After all, he was a supreme expert at the quasi-Immortal Emperor level, whose strength was even above Jiang Heng's. It was normal for him to be able to discover a trace of Jiang Heng.

At this moment, after that drop of blood merged with the three little figures, the Desolate Emperor changed. He absorbed the Reincarnation Seal, which entered his true body, making him completely different.

The Desolate Emperor's aura became incredibly sharp, his pupils suddenly became piercing, no longer empty, and the light he emitted was like a celestial sword, making it impossible for anyone to look him in the eye. Runes flowed across his body, threatening to crush this world.

The Desolate Emperor leaped out of the Imperial Pass without using the teleportation array, leaving everyone stunned.

"Who claims to be invincible? Who dares to boast of being undefeated? Not even in the era of imperial decline!"

The words of the Desolate Emperor were sharp and carried a sense of vicissitude, as if an emperor had come from ancient times, witnessed the changes of the world after his revival, and questioned the heavens.

At this moment, the Desolate Emperor was no longer the same Desolate Emperor as before. The "Great Freedom of Others" was now truly operating within the Desolate Emperor.

Although the drop of blood from the unknown era originated from the Desolate Emperor, at this time the Desolate Emperor had not yet reached the supreme realm of the Immortal Emperor.

Naturally, the Desolate Emperor could not bring back the billions of drops of essence blood lost in the river of time, thus enabling him to achieve his unique true self.

The current Desolate Emperor is actually using the "Great Freedom Technique of Transforming Himself" to transform into eternity and become an unparalleled powerhouse in an unknown time and space.

Jiang Heng no longer cared about Ye Tiandi; at this moment, all his attention was focused on Huang Tiandi.

He constantly sensed the changes in the power within the Desolate Heaven Emperor's body and observed the supreme mysteries revealed by the "Great Freedom of Others Technique".

To other living beings, the current state of the Desolate Emperor is very special, but if asked to explain why, they are not really clear about it either.

Even Ye Tiandi, a quasi-Immortal Emperor, could see the abnormality in Huang Tiandi, but he could not understand the "Great Freedom of Others Technique".

Only Jiang Heng, who also cultivated the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Technique," could comprehend the supreme mysteries from the Desolate Heavenly Emperor at this moment.

At this moment, there is nothing to say about the battle between the Desolate Emperor and the Immortal King An Lan; the Desolate Emperor undoubtedly had the upper hand.

The Immortal King An Lan's strength is not bad, but unfortunately, he not only encountered the Desolate Emperor, but also the "Great Freedom of Others Technique".

Under Jiang Heng's gaze, the Desolate Emperor shone brightly, illuminating the sky and unleashing an unparalleled aura, possessing an invincible momentum.

The Desolate Emperor stood still, without moving, but above his head, a platform appeared, a drop of blood light flashed, and a person emerged from the platform, rising from a seated position.

The person descended, a weapon appearing above his head, forged from nine kinds of immortal metals, with the primordial energy of all things hanging down; it was none other than Emperor Ye Tian.

The "Great Freedom of Others" technique allows one to transform into another's body and borrow the fruits of another's path, achieving freedom through transformation. This ability was displayed at this moment by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor.

The Desolate Heavenly Emperor used the "Great Freedom of Others Technique" to create the Heavenly Emperor Ye, which completely suppressed the Immortal King An Lan.

This was not the end. Above the head of the Desolate Emperor, chaotic mist surged once more, and a Dao Platform appeared.

On this altar, a person still sits cross-legged, a drop of blood flashing with light, the mark of reincarnation flowing.

Then, this person also stood up and walked down from the platform. He was majestic and imposing, with an aura that seemed to encompass the world and look down on the long river of history. He wanted to ask the world, who could rival him?

The person's face was blurred, and above his head appeared a tower with nine stories, exuding an aura of primordial chaos.

At this moment, the one that the Desolate Heaven Emperor transformed into was also a Quasi-Immortal Emperor. Although this Quasi-Immortal Emperor was nameless, his aura and strength were incomparably powerful.

"As expected of the Great Freedom Technique created by the Desolate Heaven Emperor, it truly possesses unimaginable power!" Jiang Heng muttered to himself.

At this time, the Desolate Emperor had not yet truly created the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Technique." He had only awakened the power of that peerless powerhouse from an unknown era because of that drop of blood.

Even so, the Desolate Emperor still managed to conjure two peerless powerhouses with the power of that drop of blood, which was nothing short of terrifying.

This is like Lao Tzu's "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones" supernatural power. Originally, your opponent was of equal strength, but suddenly they become three opponents of equal strength. How can you fight them?

Moreover, Jiang Heng could see that the manifested body of the Other Transformation Great Freedom Method was not merely a facade.

For example, the Ye Tiandi that was created by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor at this moment, although his strength was only at the Immortal King level, was exactly the same as the Ye Tiandi.

The same imperial artifact, the same methods of conquest—this was no different from the descent of Emperor Ye Tian, ​​a being at the Immortal King realm.

To borrow someone else's method and manifest their body—what an incredible, heaven-defying ability! It's simply beyond everyone's imagination.

Jiang Heng then realized that compared to the Desolate Emperor, his use of the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Technique" was far too crude.

Although Jiang Heng has cultivated the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Technique", so far, he has only used the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Technique" to differentiate billions of essence blood and scatter them in infinite space and time.

When he actually fought his opponent, Jiang Heng relied more on the Emperor Fist and the Nine Secrets, and basically did not reveal the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Technique".

This was certainly to deceive the Heavenly Dao and Dao Ancestor Hongjun, but more importantly, it was because Jiang Heng had not cultivated the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Technique" to a high level.

If one's cultivation is insufficient, and one rashly uses it when facing a powerful opponent, it will not only be useless, but may even backfire.

Now, it's as if the Desolate Heavenly Emperor is personally demonstrating the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation" to Jiang Heng, and Jiang Heng naturally benefits greatly from it.

He transforms into freedom, he transforms into eternity, he transforms into time, he transforms into reincarnation, he transforms into all the strong beings of the past, present, and future.

The supreme power manifested by the true "Great Self-Transformation Dharma" would deeply shock even Jiang Heng.

"Unfortunately, this is not the complete 'Great Freedom of Other Transformation' yet!" Jiang Heng thought to himself.

At this moment, the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation" was essentially taught to him by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor from another time and space.

This makes the "Great Freedom of Others" incomplete and not belonging to the Desolate Heaven Emperor, thus it also has certain flaws.

Only when the Desolate Heavenly Emperor truly perfects and creates the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Technique" can this technique be truly perfected and become an invincible technique.

This will have to wait until the Desolate Heavenly Emperor goes into seclusion in the Ultimate Ancient Land to study the Immortal Emperor's scriptures, expand his own Great Dao, and deduce the Invincible Law.

Only then can we truly innovate from the ground up, starting from the very source. Only through various transformations and evolutions can we achieve true success.

When he truly succeeded, the Desolate Emperor discovered that the unparalleled and invincible method he had created was, in the end, the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Method" that he often used.

This is because the "Great Self-Liberation Dharma" is very special. It is developed from the source and its creation process is like a phoenix rising from the ashes.

Only after undergoing numerous major transformations can the true secrets be revealed and the ultimate sublimation achieved; only then can true success be attained. Jiang Heng, however, lacked this kind of tempering.

After becoming an Immortal Emperor, Huangtian Emperor underwent countless trials and tribulations throughout time and space, and was baptized by the long river of time. Only then did Huangtian Emperor bring the "Great Freedom Technique of Others" to its ultimate form, making it an unparalleled and invincible imperial technique.

Speaking of which, although Jiang Heng had also reincarnated to the Dragon-Han Great Kalpa through a drop of blood, he did not comprehend the profound mystery of the "Great Self-Transformation Dharma".

Perhaps only by undergoing a slow transformation and reaching the ultimate sublimation, like the Desolate Emperor, could Jiang Heng truly evolve his own "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Technique".

However, for Jiang Heng, fortunately, he has a peerless powerhouse like the Desolate Emperor as a reference, so he won't encounter a situation where he can't see the road ahead.

Just like now, seeing the Desolate Emperor personally demonstrate the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Technique," Jiang Heng's understanding of this technique has once again reached a new level.

When the Desolate Emperor was developing the "Great Freedom of Others" technique, even the Immortal King An Lan was bound to be brutally beaten.

Even when Yu Tuo, the second immortal king from another realm, joined the attack, he was still suppressed by the Desolate Heaven Emperor using the "Great Freedom of Other Transformation Technique".

However, the battle between the three unparalleled powerhouses inevitably caused a tremor in the Heavenly Abyss, which then began to collapse.

The heavens trembled, and a crimson light poured down from the top, an overwhelming force of order and the rules of the heavens.

The Heavenly Abyss was not formed naturally, but rather it is the manifestation of numerous supreme rules and a gathering place of traces of the Great Dao. The power of the Heavenly Abyss's collapse is truly terrifying.

Even supreme powerhouses of the Immortal King level are unwilling to bear the terrifying power after the collapse of the Heavenly Abyss.

Even though they had suffered heavy losses, the two immortal kings from the other realm were unwilling to retreat. Immortal King Anlan even extended a large hand.

The alien realm has been plotting for countless ages to enter the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, all for the sake of unlocking the key to the ancient artifact of origin.

As An Lan's large hand moved forward, it became a bloody mess, with finger bones exposed. When it finally passed through the Heavenly Abyss, the white bones were a terrifying sight.

The giant hand continued to expand relentlessly, its terror boundless, instantly blotting out the heavens and earth. It struck the Imperial Pass, causing it to collapse, and this era officially came to an end.

All of this was ordained by fate. The destiny of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths had long been predetermined, and the Desolate Emperor was powerless to change anything at this moment.

But soon, something happened that made the Desolate Emperor's eyes widen in horror: the Immortal King's hand finally descended upon Sin Province and seized it in his grasp.

Sin Province is not only the place where the descendants of the Seven Kings of the Borderlands live, but it can also be said to be the hometown of the Desolate Emperor, and it is also the place where Huo Ling'er lives.

Although the Desolate Emperor wanted to stop the Immortal King An Lan, the power of that drop of blood was about to be exhausted, and the Desolate Emperor no longer had the power to be invincible.

The heartbroken Desolate Emperor could only watch helplessly as the Sinful State was taken back to the alien realm by the Immortal King Anlan, and there was nothing he could do.

Jiang Heng also fell silent. Everyone knew that the Desolate Emperor's life was extremely miserable, but no one could truly empathize with him.

At this moment, watching the Desolate Emperor roar incessantly, Jiang Heng unconsciously clenched his fists. He would never allow such a thing to happen.

In the primordial world, Jiang Heng repeatedly succeeded in his schemes, forcing Dao Ancestor Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao to compromise.

But Jiang Heng knew in his heart that all of this was only temporary, and the terrifying power of the Heavenly Dao and Dao Ancestor Hongjun had not yet been revealed.

If one day, the Heavenly Dao and Dao Ancestor Hongjun suddenly launch an attack, and Houtu Ancestral Witch is captured like Huo Ling'er, how heartbroken will Jiang Heng be?

Only power! Only invincible power can prevent all tragedies from happening and truly control one's own destiny.

At this moment, Jiang Heng secretly vowed to complete the breakthrough. Only in this way would Jiang Heng have the means to confront the Heavenly Dao and Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

The Immortal King believes that the key to unlocking the ancient artifacts of origin lies within the Sin State, which is why he spares no expense to capture the Sin State and bring it to the alien realm.

However, the key to unlocking the ancient artifact of origin is not actually in the Sin Province, but rather on the Desolate Emperor at this moment.

That mysterious flame can imitate all the great Daos of the world. It is the soul of the Emperor's Flame of that Quasi-Immortal Emperor from the era of Emperor's Fall, belonging to the Dao Flame of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

This mysterious flame is the key to unlocking the ancient artifact of origin, but the Immortal King An Lan could never have imagined this.

In fact, even if one could open the Origin Artifact of another realm, the Origin Artifact was nothing more than a white bone scepter refined by the Hong Emperor.

The power of that bone scepter was indeed formidable, quickly corrupting a group of people in the alien realm and turning them into immortal kings of that realm.

It can also grant some of the most outstanding figures in the Immortal Kings a special blessing to help them break through and become supreme giants.

However, to think that one can become a quasi-Immortal Emperor level powerhouse simply by relying on the White Bone Scepter from the Ancient Artifact of Origin is a bit of a pipe dream.

After Huo Ling'er was captured by the Immortal King An Lan along with the Sinful State and taken back to the alien realm, she was not immediately killed by the powerful figures of the alien realm.

Ten thousand years later, the alien realm attacked again, and a woman was surrounded by a strong aura of flames, burning fiercely, with black flames scorching the sky.

Outside the woman's body, the cries of the True Phoenix and Vermilion Bird, formed from black flames, were heard; this was none other than Huo Ling'er after her corruption.

However, at that time, Huo Ling'er's primordial spirit was already imprisoned in a dark cage, and she was no longer the original Huo Ling'er.

Meng Tianzheng, the master of the Desolate Emperor, was also in the Dark Cage. Perhaps it was for this reason that the Desolate Emperor explored the Dark Cage.

With the Immortal King Anlan and Yutuo retreating to another realm, this era has officially ended, and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths have thus entered the Dharma-ending Age.

After the great battle at the Imperial Pass, the heartbroken Desolate Emperor returned to the mortal realm, but on the way, he was cursed with the Immortal-Breaking Curse by a remnant immortal from the Immortal Palace.

The terror of the Immortal-Breaking Curse goes without saying. Kunpeng, a powerful Immortal King and one of the Ten Fiends, died under the Immortal-Breaking Curse.

But for the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, the Immortal-Breaking Curse was not a death calamity, but rather an opportunity, a means for him to hone himself.

By chance, the Desolate Emperor came into contact with the Dark True Blood and tempered his own Great Dao, making his Great Dao even stronger and smoother.

He then used the Immortal-Slaying Curse to refine his body, making it nearly perfect, until the Immortal-Slaying Curse became ineffective against him.

Ten years of arduous cultivation led to the attainment of an ultimate state; twenty years spent in the mortal world, experiencing all aspects of life, refining the mind and breaking through attachments, and enduring the flames of karma.

He then reversed his path, seeking nothing from heaven and earth, his myriad thoughts consumed his Dao, and without the cleansing of heaven and earth, he became the supreme being, but this also left behind hidden dangers.

Instead of seeking the Great Dao of the Outer World, he burned away all thoughts and broke the five-hundred-year curse of the Supreme Being, becoming the youngest Supreme Being in history.

At this point, the Desolate Emperor had already begun to forge his own path, which was of great reference value to Jiang Heng.

Then the Dharma-ending Age truly arrived, and the Desolate Emperor tempered himself in the Heavenly Furnace, refining all laws and truly comprehending his own Dao.

At this moment, the Desolate Emperor opened the secret realms within his body, including the Dao Palace, the Four Extremes, the Dragon Transformation, and the Immortal Platform, truly creating the Heaven-Covering Cultivation System.

Jiang Heng had been silently observing all of this. For him, the cultivation system of the world of "Covering the Sky" was also the foundation of his cultivation.

Witnessing the Desolate Emperor create this system is equivalent to witnessing the true nature of the Shrouding the Heavens cultivation system at its source.

Only by tracing back to the source can one see the true essence of the Great Dao! At this moment, Jiang Heng unconsciously experienced a surge of insights, gaining a clearer understanding of his own Dao.

Jiang Heng's transformation became faster and faster, steadily advancing towards the level of a quasi-Immortal Emperor, with each step taken with extreme firmness.

Jiang Heng has now figured out the path ahead; all he lacks is the tempering of time, and in "Perfect World," time is the one thing Jiang Heng has no shortage of.

After creating the cultivation system of Shrouding the Heavens, the Desolate Emperor did not advance rapidly. Instead, he split his Supreme Body, did not rely on the Heavenly Dao, and retreated to cultivate anew, returning to the Supreme Realm.

The Immortal-Breaking Curse thus became completely ineffective, and at this time, the Desolate Heavenly Emperor also began to come into contact with the Immortal Realm, where he witnessed many powerful beings at the True Immortal level or above.

But because of this, the Desolate Emperor was attacked and killed by Immortal King Ao Sheng, thus beginning his extraordinary feat against the heavens.
