In the distance, there is a magnificent expanse of ancient trees, each one golden in color, as if cast from gold. The golden flowers and leaves paint the entire sky with a golden glow.
"Want to look around? This is my first time traveling to an alien planet," Yunhua asked with great interest.
Before the ruthless young woman could answer, a figure appeared in the distance, carrying a large amount of ancient wood of the Five Elements, which he used the True Fire of the Sun to refine into five-colored crystals.
This is a one-armed old man, dressed in a blue robe, with a Taoist-like demeanor, tall and slender, with a refined appearance, without a trace of worldly air, and a natural, ancient feel.
On the broad mountaintop, the one-armed old man was stacking the five-colored crystals he had refined together to build a small five-colored altar.
The Five-Colored Altar is small, no more than three meters long, but it consumes a lot of Five-Colored Crystals. Most of them are no bigger than pigeon eggs. It is unknown how many Tree Kings were cut down to collect them.
The appearance of Yunhua and the ruthless man attracted the old man's attention. The old man turned around and looked at him, his eyes dull and expressionless.
"He shouldn't be alive." The ruthless young woman's eyes were sharp, and she saw through the one-armed old man's true nature at a glance, though she was still very puzzled.
"I think I know who he is. He is the Sun Emperor, no, perhaps it should be said that he is the divine consciousness of the Sun Emperor." The moment Yunhua saw the one-armed old man, some memories of these things surfaced.
"The Sun Emperor? A deity?" The ruthless young woman was also somewhat surprised. As one of the two Sun Emperors who led the rise of the human race in the ancient era, she knew about him. After all, there are still some places in the Big Dipper with temples and beliefs dedicated to the Sun Emperor.
"Returning to one's homeland, not to be buried in a foreign land..."
At this moment, a voice like a curse echoed continuously from the mountaintop, as if it came from ancient times, seemingly never to stop. It carried the great regret of not being able to return to one's homeland, and the intense homesickness could not be quelled even by the mindless thoughts of the gods.
Who will bury me in my homeland?
Before the five-colored altar, the ancient chant continued to resound. The divine incantation of the Sun Emperor did not utter a word, but the voice rang out clearly and incessantly, desolate and far-reaching.
The five-colored altar had already taken shape, but the divine will of the Sun Emperor was no longer sufficient. He transformed into the Dao and returned to the world. Without the main divine will, he could no longer even be considered a ghost, merely mechanically repeating everything from the past.
Looking around, one sees countless five-colored altars being built, and sadly, the construction continues unabated. It is unknown how many hundreds of thousands of years it would take to build so many five-colored altars.
"Ugh..."
Upon seeing this, Yunhua sighed, bowed deeply to the forlorn old man before him, and said in a resounding voice, "Yunhua, a descendant of the human race, is willing to respectfully escort the remains of the Holy Emperor back to his homeland."
His voice wasn't loud, but it was like a divine sound that resounded throughout heaven and earth. The previously unconscious obsession of the Sun Saint Emperor suddenly opened his eyes wide, shooting out two dazzling beams of divine light, like two torches, which shot into the sky. He was temporarily awakened and stared intently at Yun Hua.
He reached out a giant hand, instantly cracking the earth until he reached the core of this ancient star, where he retrieved a sealed stone coffin.
In a final burst of fervor, the Sun Emperor regained a sliver of self-awareness. With utmost respect, he lifted the stone coffin and transformed into a streak of light, hurtling towards Yunhua.
The stone coffin entered Yunhua's sea of consciousness, where it floated and sank. Yunhua drew upon the essence of chaos to nourish the damaged divine thoughts of the Sun Saint Emperor.
"Is something wrong? Why did you do this?" The ruthless young woman was somewhat puzzled by Yunhua's behavior, but she was also concerned about Yunhua's physical condition.
"I'm fine, but we need to bring the Sun Emperor's stone coffin with us on this trip. The Emperor shed his last drop of blood for the human race, and I can't let him be buried in a foreign land. The Emperor was too tired, and he needs to rest. Let him return to eternal peace, and the descendants of the human race should not disturb him any longer."
Yunhua and the other stepped onto the five-colored altar and struck in several pieces of divine source, causing the altar to shine brightly.
A small Bagua diagram appeared, its runes flashing, opening the gate to the starry sky. With a loud bang, five-colored divine light shot into the sky, shaking heaven and earth. The two instantly disappeared into the Bagua star gate.
"Returning to one's homeland, not to be buried in a foreign land..."
The mournful words still echo throughout the world!
They traversed the universe, crossing countless galaxies. After an unknown amount of time, they finally encountered an ancient star inhabited by life once again in the desolate cosmos.
In the vast and brilliant star field, a large purple star radiates divine light, fixed at the end of the eternal void. All the stars in the entire star field revolve around that ancient purple star.
The two appeared in the star field centered on that large purple star and immediately sensed an unusual aura. It was one of the birthplaces of the human race, the homeland of the human holy emperor. The Great Emperor's array patterns covered the void, stabilizing and protecting this ancient star.
The ancient star Ziwei, vast and boundless, stands in the starry sky, giving one an incomparably magnificent feeling. Looking from high above, the ancient star's land is boundless and limitless, with towering mountains reaching into the clouds, imposing and awe-inspiring. A mighty river leaps for tens of thousands of miles, and there are many immortal lands, their spiritual energy soaring into the heavens—this is a magnificent world.
Chapter 118 The Holy Emperor Returns to the Sun God Cult
"We've arrived at the Ziwei Ancient Star! It's truly beautiful!" Yunhua exclaimed in admiration as she gazed at this bright pearl in the dark universe, feeling the uplifting spirit of humanity emanating from it.
"The ancestral planet of humanity? There must be many powerful individuals there." The ruthless man rarely showed any anticipation.
"Let's go to the Sun Holy Cult first! After all, it's the Sun Holy Emperor's homecoming, so their participation is only right." Yunhua led the ruthless man towards the Ziwei Ancient Star, heading towards the area that possessed power comparable to that of the sun, which should be the Sun God Cult.
Eastern China, the ancestral home of the Sun God Cult.
A massive and ancient city rose from the ground, its walls hundreds of feet high, imposing and majestic, thick and ancient. Countless years have passed, yet it still exudes a faint golden light, as warm and gentle as the sun.
The walls bear deep marks of swords, knives, and axes, bearing witness to the vicissitudes of history and recording the great battles that have existed through the ages.
The Sun God Cult has existed since ancient times. Although it lost the suppression of the Imperial Weapon, it is still incredibly glorious and is the first-class holy land cult of the Ziwei Ancient Star.
The worship of the Sun Emperor, which draws homage from countless star fields, spreads throughout the Eastern Divine Continent. Everyone takes pride in joining the Sun God Cult, and every household worships the Sun Emperor. The intense power of faith permeates the skies above the ancient holy city.
"Yun Hua, a cultivator from the Big Dipper, is here today to escort the coffin of the Sun Emperor back to his homeland. I humbly request the Sun Emperor's presence." Yun Hua respectfully held up the stone coffin and shouted loudly towards the Holy City.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!~~~~"
The bell tolled nine times, its sound echoing throughout the holy city. These nine tolls were reserved for times of great significance. The Holy Lord of the Sun Holy Church and his elders also heard Yun Hua's voice. They felt the pulsation at the source of their bloodline and were overjoyed, tears streaming down their faces.
They quickly flew into the air and took their positions, followed by a large group of people who knelt down in unison and shouted, "The unworthy descendants of the Sun Holy Church respectfully welcome the Holy Emperor home!"
After saying this, thirty-two saints quickly flew out, with the Sun Saint Lord leading the way. They took out the funeral regalia of the Great Emperor and then together escorted the Holy Emperor's coffin back to the Holy City.
Once inside the Holy City, the Sun Emperor's divine consciousness seemed to clear somewhat. After absorbing all the faith power above the Holy City, he personally carried the Holy Emperor's stone coffin back to the Sun Holy Church.
Upon seeing the divine presence of the Sun God Emperor, the members of the Sun God Cult immediately knelt on the ground and wept in unison. "Welcome back home, Holy Emperor Ancestor!"
The one-armed old man in blue robes seemed not to hear, focusing only on placing the stone coffin in the Temple of the Sun God before turning away.
He looked at them.
“I am not the Holy Emperor, and I am far inferior to him. I am merely his obsession. This is the Sun Emperor Tower, which is somewhat damaged. You have sent me divine materials, and I will repair it completely. I will then leave it to you to suppress your fortune. Afterward, I will take the stone coffin to the North Sea for burial.”
The Sun Emperor took out a broken nine-story imperial tower from the stone coffin. Three stories were broken, but the imperial weapon and deity were undamaged and could be easily repaired.
"The Emperor Tower! The Sun Emperor Tower! That's wonderful! Quickly prepare the immortal gold and divine materials and send them over. The Emperor Ancestor wants to repair the Emperor Tower." The Sun Saint Lord looked at the Sun Emperor Tower with tears in his eyes. Without the suppression of the Emperor Weapon, the Sun God Sect could never be considered an imperial power. Today, it can finally be perfected.
Soon, a sage took out nine different kinds of immortal gold from ten directions, and the shimmering immortal light filled the place, which showed that the divine sect had a rich foundation.
The fact that the Sun Saint Emperor God intervened to repair the Sun Emperor Tower was an unparalleled opportunity, and not only the members of the Sun God Sect, but also Yun Hua and the Ruthless Man stared intently, hoping to glean some insight.
The Sun Emperor held a warm sun in his hand. Although it seemed warm, it was only because the Sun Emperor's boundless control isolated the temperature that would instantly burn the quasi-emperor's capital.
The Sun Emperor selected several types of immortal gold and threw them into the sun. In an instant, the supreme immortal gold, which even sages would need to refine for several days, turned into liquid and was mixed by the Sun Emperor into an immortal gold alloy. He continuously infused it with imperial laws, allowing it to combine with the sun's holy power.
He then took out the Sun Emperor Tower and gave the Immortal Gold to the Tower Deity to devour. Soon the Tower was fully restored, and the supreme power, enough to destroy the heavens, spread out, but was blocked by the Holy Emperor, who restored it to calm. He then directly outlined the Sun Emperor Array in the Sun Holy City, suppressing the array eye of the Tower's defensive core.
"Alright, now that the Holy Emperor can rest in peace, let's give these remaining immortal gold and divine materials as a token of gratitude to these two who escorted the Holy Emperor home. And then we will pass on the Sun Emperor Scripture to you."
The Sun Saint Emperor deity threw the remaining few units of immortal gold into Yunhua and Ruthless Man's sea of consciousness, then unleashed two beams of divine light, transmitting the complete Sun Emperor Scripture to the two of them.
At this time, the holy masters of various major religions and holy sites also rushed to the Sun Holy City to pay homage to the Holy Emperor and send him off for burial.
"This Sun Holy City is actually protected by an Imperial Array! I can even sense the Imperial Weapon hidden within that array, poised to unleash earth-shattering power at any moment. Could it be that the Holy Emperor is not dead?" the Palace Master of the Human King Hall said cautiously.
“Be careful what you say! The Sun God Cult is not something we can fight against now,” said the emperor of the Ziwei Divine Dynasty.
"The Sun Emperor has returned home, and the Imperial Tower has also returned. When will our Human Emperor return? The Human Emperor's Seal is nowhere to be found," the somewhat dejected Holy Master of the Taiyin Divine Sect wept.
Some of the various religious factions were shocked by the current strength of the Sun God Cult, while others abandoned certain ideas.
"Emperor, various religious forces outside are requesting an audience. I wonder if you would be willing to see them?" the Sun Saint Lord said with some helplessness.
"Then let's meet them. I can sense the strong desire of one of them." Although the Sun Emperor was a little surprised as to why someone had such a strong desire to see him, he still prepared to meet him, after which he would go to the North Sea.
Soon, the holy leaders of various religious forces arrived at the Temple of the Sun and met the one-armed old man in blue robes who exuded imperial power.
"Greetings to the Holy Emperor of the Sun, may the Holy Emperor live forever, may the Holy Emperor be immortal." The crowd seemed to have rehearsed this, although they were momentarily distracted upon seeing the Holy Emperor of the Sun.
"I am not the Sun Emperor, I am merely his obsession. What business do you have seeing me?"
"Holy Emperor! Do you have any news of my clan's ancestor, the Taiyin Emperor? Now the Emperor's army has not returned, and the descendants of the Divine Sect are unfilial, causing the Divine Sect to be in grave danger. I am ashamed before my ancestor!" The Taiyin Holy Lord said with tears in his eyes.
"I am merely a person with incomplete memories and an obsession. I only know that Taiyin entered the path of immortality in her later years, but the outcome is unknown."
"Alas, thank you for informing me, Holy Emperor. I hope that the Emperor Ancestor has entered the Immortal Realm and ascended to immortality," said the Holy Lord of Taiyin, his voice filled with dejection.
"The Human Emperor was kind to me back then. If you can send me divine materials, I will forge a quasi-Emperor Divine Weapon for you." The Sun Saint Emperor was somewhat worried. Although he protected the human race, he also knew the darkness in people's hearts. Without the protection of an Emperor Weapon, the Taiyin Divine Sect would be a highly sought-after prize.
"Thank you, Holy Emperor. My sect will deliver it immediately," said the Holy Lord of Taiyin happily.
Ten days later, the Taiyin Divine Sect sent over several blocks of immortal gold, which were refined by the Sun Saint Emperor into a replica of the Human Emperor Seal. This quasi-Emperor weapon, flowing with rich Taiyin Saint Power, was infinitely close to an Ultimate Emperor Weapon, and contained a great deal of Ultimate Divine Power.
This is enough to show that the Sun Emperor's achievements are astounding. He uses the power of the sun to evolve the power of the moon, and uses the laws of the moon to forge quasi-emperor weapons. The Emperor's understanding of the transformation of yin and yang is extremely profound. He is truly worthy of being the Emperor of the human race.
In recent days, various forces have come to admire the Holy Emperor's demeanor, but unfortunately, they have not been able to see him.
Once everything is arranged, the Holy Emperor will travel to the North Sea Eye to suppress it with the Fusang Divine Tree.
Chapter 119 Burying the Holy Emperor in the North Sea
On this day, the Holy Emperor God lifted the stone coffin and transformed into a golden light, heading towards the North Sea. Behind him, the members of the Sun God Cult and the Holy Lords of various major forces followed closely, with Yunhua and Ruthless Man also following closely behind.
The ancient star of Ziwei shines above the North Sea.
Here, all was pitch black, with surging, dark waves stretching to the heavens, scattering the clouds and creating a deafening roar.
Upon arriving at this unknown place in the North Sea, an invisible wave of solar holy power emanated, pointing the group in a direction.
The Holy Emperor's divine will crossed the void, and guided by the Holy Power of the Sun, passed through a mysterious realm. Everyone hurriedly followed, and suddenly a peaceful and serene pure land appeared before them.
This is a mysterious sea area, where an ancient island sits in the dark ocean, teeming with life.
This place is the legendary Valley of Dew, where even the Black Ocean cannot penetrate an inch. The island is full of life, with ancient herbs everywhere, and various fragrances wafting in, making one feel as if baptized, with pores opening up.
In the center of the island stands a golden ancient tree, shrouded in divine light, its branches laden with dazzling golden leaves, densely packed and swaying gently like stars falling from the sky.
That is the legendary immortal tree, which accompanied the ancient sun emperor throughout his life. Although the holy emperor has passed away in the primordial era, he has finally returned to this place today to accompany the Fusang tree.
Although the divine tree was no more than six zhang tall, everyone felt it was more majestic than a mountain.
It possesses a unique aura, with golden solar holy power flowing, as if opening up an ancient universe and evolving into three thousand realms, surrounded by golden mist, displaying a myriad of phenomena.
A thunderous roar echoed, and above the six-zhang-tall golden Fusang divine tree, an ancient palace appeared, hazy and indistinct, as if shrouded in clouds or in another world.
"Who can bury me in my homeland..."
A desolate voice echoed softly as the one-armed Holy Emperor, driven by his unwavering resolve, carried the stone coffin toward the Fusang Divine Tree.
During this process, the old man in blue robes was surrounded by endless solar holy power and landed in front of the Fusang Divine Tree. He seemed to have lost his soul, and his whole body was in a daze, without any fluctuation of mental power. He stood there like a wooden stake.
Wow...
The Fusang Divine Tree swayed, its golden leaves rustling and scattering strands of solar essence that surrounded the one-armed old man in blue, seemingly welcoming the Holy Emperor's return.
Countless rays of divine solar power were channeled into the old man in green robes by the Fusang Divine Tree, washing away the taint of divine thoughts and allowing the Holy Emperor of the Sun to return.
"Who am I? Who am I...?"
The Holy Emperor, fixated on his own thoughts, asked himself a question. His eyes grew clearer and clearer. Suddenly, he raised his head and picked up the stone coffin.
"I am the only one who reigns supreme in the nine heavens and ten earths. I have swept across the three thousand realms and reversed the six paths of reincarnation. I am - the Holy Emperor of the Sun!"
The Holy Emperor, still clinging to the stone coffin, spoke slowly. His overwhelming imperial might rose up, seemingly shaking the entire star field. The vast black North Sea was filled with towering waves, and the clouds in all directions collapsed.
At this moment, the entire Ziwei Ancient Star sensed a terrifying imperial might. Those who came with him, whether they were genuinely seeing him off or had ulterior motives, all knelt on one knee to withstand that pressure.
Tanggu, bathed in divine light, has been unsealed today. This island seems to have come back to life, displaying a magnificent spectacle that shakes the entire star field. The Holy Emperor, clad in flowing blue robes, stands alone beneath the divine tree, his gaze lost in thought, looking upon the world with endless vicissitudes in his eyes.
Finally, he arrived at Fusang, placed the stone coffin on the ground, slowly pushed open the coffin, and looked inside.
boom!
The aura of an ancient emperor burst forth, causing towering waves to surge across the entire North Sea and dispersing all the thick dark clouds in the sky!
This is an extremely terrifying aura. When the Holy Emperor is enraged, his divine power can penetrate through the past, present, and future, suppress the three thousand worlds, and reverse the six paths of reincarnation!
"The Holy Emperor passed away, but his body disappeared. Who moved it? It was that old bird, the Undying Emperor." The Holy Emperor said angrily, looking at the five-colored divine phoenix aura that was about to dissipate into nothingness in the stone coffin.
Inside the stone coffin, there was no corpse of the ancient human emperor, only a human skin, radiating golden light, as if it had just been peeled off, with a few drops of golden imperial blood on it, as dazzling as a sun!
"The Undying Emperor! He disturbed the Holy Emperor's corpse!" This revelation was so shocking that everyone looked at each other in disbelief.
"The Undying lineage, my Sun God Cult will fight you to the death!" the Sun Saint Lord said with extreme warmth.
"The Undying Emperor is not dead, yet he devoured the Holy Emperor's corpse. How is that possible?" Some people found it hard to believe that the Undying Emperor from the early Primordial Era could actually live to the early Desolate Era.
"This seems like something that old scoundrel, the Immortal Emperor, would do," Yunhua said, based on his newly emerging memories.
"Why? Why is the Undying Emperor doing this?" the ruthless man asked, somewhat puzzled.
"The Undying Emperor never died. He hunted ancient emperors in their later years, bathed in the blood of emperors and underwent a nirvana transformation, living life after life and embarking on an alternative path to immortality in the mortal world. However, compared to others who lived their own lives, his transformation was filled with the stench of corpses. He went from being an invincible, proud, and sacred phoenix to a carrion-eating vulture."
"Become an immortal? Are there immortals in this world?" The ruthless woman didn't care about the despicable method of becoming an immortal used by the Undying Emperor; she only cared about the rumors of immortals because she had devoured the essence of the Kings' Bodies, so she was not much different from the Undying Emperor.
"Yes, there are outstanding individuals in this world who can ultimately rely on their unparalleled talent to ascend to the path of immortality, such as the Emperor, the Tribulation-Crossing Celestial Venerable, the God Emperor, the Undying Celestial Emperor, and so on." Although Yunhua was also surprised, she still shared the information from her memory.
