251 – The Emperor Battle Returns! The Way to Acquire the Chaos Body!

“He has suppressed the Innate Emperor Flame, huh… I just don’t know what use this Innate Emperor Flame has that could make the Incinerating Heaven Emperor go to such lengths.”

Wang Ping looked at the content simulated by the Life Simulator and silently pondered in his heart.

The Incinerating Heaven Emperor, in order to obtain the Innate Emperor Flame, used the head of another great emperor as the main component to set up an array and even ambushed the Innate Emperor Flame.

For such a figure to expend so much effort and calculation, it surely wasn’t a simple matter. Hidden within it was an opportunity that would be of immense benefit to even emperors.

If the simulated Wang Ping could uncover this secret, his combat strength might undergo another transformation.

Besides, breaking through to the quasi-emperor level was also a possibility.

As Wang Ping was deep in thought, the text simulation continued.

【You suppress the Innate Emperor Flame, intending to refine it. As a result, you find that you are completely unable to refine the Innate Emperor Flame. However, this is also very normal. After all, the Innate Emperor Flame is something even the Incinerating Heaven Emperor needed an array to wear down.】

【Even after ten thousand years, when you meet Ye Chen again, the Innate Emperor Flame still hasn’t been worn down and reverted to its pure origin of fire.】

【After considering, you decide to return to the Taiyi Emperor Palace first to think about how to handle the Innate Emperor Flame.】

【But just as you are about to leave, an anomaly occurs. At this moment, a powerful emperor’s pressure suddenly appears in the Large Universe, and a terrifying dark aura spreads out.】

【This attracts the attention of countless powerful cultivators, all of whom are somewhat shocked and even frightened. Even the quasi-emperors are extremely wary. As for the great emperors, they all look towards the Source of Darkness direction and narrow their eyes.】

【The appearance of the emperor’s pressure and the spreading dark aura signify that a dark emperor who has fallen into the Source of Darkness is about to emerge, and will also bring about a dark turmoil.】

【It’s just unknown why the Incinerating Heaven Emperor, who is about to emerge, is so furious and suddenly coming out.】

【You also feel this powerful emperor’s pressure and are extremely shocked. After all, this is something that never appeared in previous simulations, an unusual event.】

【Soon, you think of the Innate Emperor Flame and the Incinerating Heaven Emperor, guessing that it is probably the Incinerating Heaven Emperor who is about to emerge. After all, you have acted on the Hell Ancient Star, broken its restrictions, and suppressed the Innate Emperor Flame. This has smashed the Incinerating Heaven Emperor’s chessboard and sought to seize his treasure, which he cannot tolerate.】

【Immediately, you unhesitatingly put away the Taiyi Emperor Tower, preparing to directly escape using the talent effect of the golden talent: Teleportation.】

【However, you underestimated the means of the Incinerating Heaven Emperor. You discover that the space around the Hell Ancient Star has long been sealed, and your golden talent: Teleportation cannot be used.】

【This makes your heart sink, knowing that you are in trouble. Immediately, you flee into the depths of the starry sky, intending to escape this area.】

【At this moment, a blood-red and black emperor’s Dao fruit phantom appears in the entire Large Universe, and the entire universe seems to turn scarlet, with terrifying flames brewing.】

【Obviously, this is a precursor to the appearance of a great emperor. You have seen this scene before, except those emperors were not as high-profile as the Incinerating Heaven Emperor.】

【However, you still don’t care about anything else and continue to flee away from the Source of Darkness. At this time, a cold voice rings out, stating that you, a junior, stole his things and still want to run, which is too presumptuous.】

【Then, the emperor’s pressure of the Incinerating Heaven Emperor directly presses towards you, and a giant flaming palm large enough to cover the galaxy grabs towards you.】

【Facing the emperor’s pressure, you feel extremely uncomfortable, and facing the giant flaming palm large enough to cover the galaxy, you have no ability to resist.】

【In response, you can only sigh, realizing that only the incarnation of Emperor Tianyu can save you. Just as you think this, the incarnation of Emperor Tianyu appears, blocking this terrifying strike.】

【The clash of the two emperor auras shocks the Large Universe, astonishing numerous powerful cultivators who didn’t expect to witness the scene of a dual emperor battle in the era of declining magic.】

【Seeing that the incarnation of Emperor Tianyu has intercepted him, the Incinerating Heaven Emperor steps on the galaxy and looks down at the incarnation of Emperor Tianyu, coldly saying, ‘Tianyu, do you really think just an incarnation can battle me?’】

【The incarnation of Emperor Tianyu coldly replies that since the Incinerating Heaven Emperor has chosen to fall into the darkness and become a hound of darkness, he shouldn’t emerge. If he does emerge, he should be prepared for his fall.】

【The Incinerating Heaven Emperor laughs in anger, saying that even the true body of Emperor Tianyu isn’t qualified to speak to him like this, let alone a mere incarnation daring to be his enemy and trying to destroy him, which is utterly ridiculous…】

Subsequently, the avatars of the Incinerating Heaven Emperor and Emperor Tianyu began to battle once more… However, the Incinerating Heaven Emperor is not an ordinary emperor; he is a mighty emperor with formidable strength. Even if the true body of Emperor Tianyu were to come, it might not be able to defeat him, let alone just an avatar.

For this reason, even you can feel that the power of Emperor Tianyu’s avatar is rapidly weakening and will eventually be shattered…

Other quasi-emperors and even emperors witnessing this scene are quite surprised by Emperor Tianyu’s combat prowess. After all, this is the Incinerating Heaven Emperor, a powerful emperor second only to Emperor-level figures. That an avatar of Emperor Tianyu can contend with him is truly unexpected and also indirectly suggests the combat strength of Emperor Tianyu’s true body.

However, the spectators shake their heads, believing that Emperor Tianyu’s true body must come to stop the Incinerating Heaven Emperor. They are also very surprised and puzzled, curious about what a mere Heaven Supreme like you could have done to break the great formation set by the Incinerating Heaven Emperor and provoke such fury…

Furthermore, some emperors have been moved by the Heavenly Emperor Flame sealed by the Incinerating Heaven Emperor years ago. That is a Heavenly Emperor Flame… Back then, the Incinerating Heaven Emperor resorted to a shameless sneak attack and killed another emperor for it. Even though these emperors are not fire element cultivators, the flame is still highly beneficial to them. Therefore, some emperors are contemplating whether to get involved in this great battle and capture you…

At this moment, two terrifying auras suddenly descended. These two auras were none other than the true body of Emperor Tianyu and Yu Daoyi.

Evidently, Emperor Tianyu successfully rescued Yu Daoyi from the Ghost Demon Sea. The fate of Tianyu and Yu Daoyi altered because of your intervention…

After Emperor Tianyu appeared, he retrieved his avatar and began fighting the Incinerating Heaven Emperor, unleashing terrifying combat strength and showing no signs of being at a disadvantage, which was astonishing…

Yu Daoyi, on the other hand, came to your side, shielding you from the residual waves of the deadly battle, alleviating your pressure. Otherwise, even with the protection of the Taiyi Emperor Tower, you would have been under tremendous stress…

The battle between the two emperors escalated, expanding its reach… In the end, the ambitious emperors, seeing the arrival of Yu Daoyi, suppressed their thoughts…

After all, Yu Daoyi has long been famous and possesses formidable combat power. Even ordinary emperors cannot easily defeat her. Hence, giving up the idea of intervening seemed wiser… Otherwise, if they anger the Incinerating Heaven Emperor, Emperor Tianyu, and Yu Daoyi, and the trio attacks them as a third-party force, it would be a big problem…

Just as all sides abandoned their thoughts, not wanting to take advantage of the situation, nor having interest in helping Emperor Tianyu repel the Incinerating Heaven Emperor and making an enemy of the latter, the voice of a strong cultivator from the Immortal Palace rang out…

The strong cultivator from the Immortal Palace coldly declared that if the Incinerating Heaven Emperor continued to stay outside, causing suffering and death to billions of living beings, the Immortal Palace would take action to kill him. Therefore, the Incinerating Heaven Emperor had two choices: either return to the Source of Darkness or die…

The appearance of the Immortal Palace stirred all parties, and the Incinerating Heaven Emperor’s expression froze, looking towards its direction…

Afterward, the Incinerating Heaven Emperor sneered, stating he would like to see what capabilities the Immortal Palace had to make such a claim. Then, under the astonished gaze of all sides, he chose to fight Emperor Tianyu to a standstill and unleashed terrifying divine abilities towards the direction of the Immortal Palace…

This scene enraged the strong cultivator from the Immortal Palace. Subsequently, celestial light appeared, directly tearing apart the Incinerating Heaven Emperor’s attack and, without diminishing, struck towards him…

Faced with the strong counterattack of the Immortal Palace, the Incinerating Heaven Emperor’s expression changed, swiftly defending himself… However, he ultimately underestimated the strength of the Immortal Palace. After being struck by the celestial light, he bled across the starry sky and suffered severe injuries…

Nonetheless, the reaction of the Incinerating Heaven Emperor was not slow. The moment he was injured, he fled back to the Source of Darkness…

The many cultivators in the Upper Realm did not expect the Immortal Palace to be so mighty. Without appearing in person, they severely wounded the Incinerating Heaven Emperor with a single strike. For a time, all forces in the Upper Realm were immensely wary of the Immortal Palace…

Emperor Tianyu then glanced in the direction of the Immortal Palace before coming to your side, taking you and Yu Daoyi away to the Taiyi Emperor Palace…

“I really didn’t expect Emperor Tianyu to return so timely; I thought this time I was going to lose again…”

Wang Ping looked at the simulated text content, thinking secretly in his heart.

However, this Incinerating Heaven Emperor is indeed quite rash, daring to directly attack the Immortal Palace, doing something other emperors did not dare to easily attempt…

Of course, the Immortal Palace is also probably quite apprehensive of the Source of Darkness…

After all, the Incinerating Heaven Emperor fell to darkness, becoming a dark emperor, possibly establishing some connection with the Source of Darkness…

Therefore, the Immortal Palace would not easily kill the Incinerating Heaven Emperor, fearing that provoking the Source of Darkness might result in dire consequences…

Otherwise, with the foundation of the Immortal Palace, killing the Incinerating Heaven Emperor would be an extremely simple matter…

The gap between an emperor and a quasi-immortal is really too vast…

Not to mention, there is also the emperor-king between them…

Although the emperor-king is also at the emperor level, only with a different title, he is definitely much stronger than a regular emperor…

“However, are Emperor Tianyu and the Incinerating Heaven Emperor both top-tier Great Emperors below the realm of the Emperor? This designation has now become clearer. Speaking of which, the curse on the people of Chi Village originates from the Incinerating Heaven Emperor, the old ancestor of the Scarlet Clan. If I eliminate the Incinerating Heaven Emperor… will the curse on the Chi Village people disappear?”

After Wang Ping sighed, he thought of another matter.

Even though it is unclear why the other Great Emperors did not bring curses when they fell into the Source of Darkness, and only the Scarlet Clan suffered curses after the Incinerating Heaven Emperor fell, Wang Ping believed that if he could eliminate the Incinerating Heaven Emperor, the Heavenly Dao might revoke its curse on the people of Chi Village.

Of course, eliminating a top-tier Great Emperor like the Incinerating Heaven Emperor is not simple. Only if Wang Ping also steps into the level of a Great Emperor could he have a chance to achieve it.

“Speaking of which, the Heavenly Dao has a problem. The Heavenly Dao curse was unsolvable for me before, but if I bring the people of Chi Village to the Taiyi Emperor Palace, with Emperor Tianyu’s abilities, he should be able to suppress it.”

Wang Ping’s eyes flashed as he thought secretly, planning to try it in the next simulation.

If it is feasible, Wang Ping would immediately have the strong figures of Taiyi Emperor Palace descend to the Lower Realm to rescue the people, just like in this simulation, bringing all his old friends from the Lower Realm to the Upper Realm.

Afterward, Wang Ping calmed his thoughts and continued to gaze at the screen.

【After returning to the Taiyi Emperor Palace, Emperor Tianyu expressed his gratitude for the information you provided. Without your intelligence, he wouldn’t know how long it would take to find out his daughter’s location and rescue her. Being in a place like the Ghost Demon Sea, if it was delayed, it could end in tragedy, forever separating them.】

【Yu Daoyi also expressed gratitude along with Emperor Tianyu and was quite curious about you. After all, your talent and performance were too astonishing, and you even had the means to predict the future.】

【Although you feel indebted to them, you couldn’t express it in this simulation, so you simply accepted their gratitude, indicating that they had also saved you and there was no need to be so polite.】

【Next, you took out the jade stone, hoping that Yu Daoyi would help you elevate your Spacetime Dao Body and Origin-Breaking Divine Eyes to the level of Small Success Dominion.】

【Yu Daoyi naturally agreed to this.】

【In a flash, two thousand years passed. During these two thousand years, Yu Daoyi continually aided in your cultivation, successfully helping you to develop your Spacetime Dao Body and Origin-Breaking Divine Eyes to the level of Small Success Dominion, significantly boosting your combat power.】

【After completing your training with Yu Daoyi, she went into seclusion. Her essence was injured and couldn’t be healed in a place like the Ghost Demon Sea, but it could be stabilized in the Taiyi Emperor Palace.】

【Although the Taiyi Emperor Palace didn’t have miraculous herbs that could heal such severe essence injuries for someone of her level, it could at least prevent further deterioration and allow some recovery.】

【As Yu Daoyi went into seclusion, you pondered the matter of the pureblood phoenix essence at the quasi-emperor level. Unfortunately, Huang Yin and Huang Qing were too young, even in the golden age, to meet the conditions.】

【You thought you might either stop the Nine-Star Pavilion Master’s plan in the future, giving Huang Qing and Huang Yin enough time to grow to the quasi-emperor level, or go to the Fourth Minor Universe to request some essence from the Phoenix Clan.】

【Speaking of the Phoenix Clan in the Fourth Minor Universe, you were puzzled. They were too low-key, even with pureblood phoenixes like Huang Qing and Huang Yin born, they didn’t show any interest, pretending not to see.】

【Clearly, something might be amiss or secretive with the Phoenix Clan in the Fourth Minor Universe for them to ignore the existence of Huang Yin and Huang Qing.】

【Although you were curious about the Phoenix Clan’s secrets, you had no interest in exploring them now. Your current priority was to become stronger.】

【Next, you found Emperor Tianyu and brought out the Taiyi Emperor Tower, informing him about suppressing the Heavenly Emperor Flame.】

【Emperor Tianyu was full of emotions, saying the Incinerating Heaven Emperor would never have expected a Heavenly Venerable like you to break through his restriction. That restriction was terrifying, difficult even for a Great Emperor to break. Forcing it would turn the formation into a devastating flame array.】

【Although such an array couldn’t defeat a Great Emperor, it could delay them long enough for the Incinerating Heaven Emperor to appear and kill the Great Emperor.】

【This is why many powerful figures knew there was a great secret on the Hell Ancient Star but didn’t dare to act against it. As for the Emperor-level figures who could ignore the Incinerating Heaven Emperor, either they didn’t care about the secret, or they had long disappeared.】

【Emperor-level figures were far rarer than Great Emperors and were mythical beings typically unseen.】

【When Emperor Tianyu mentioned Emperor-level figures, his expression subtly changed.】

【Seeing this, you knew Emperor Tianyu thought of the Emperor of Destruction. However, you had no intention to inquire at this moment. Instead, you addressed the main issue, asking if Emperor Tianyu knew the purpose of the Heavenly Emperor Flame, prompting such a great effort from the Incinerating Heaven Emperor.】

【After contemplating, Emperor Tianyu informed you of a rumor. Allegedly, existences like the Heavenly Emperor Flame and the Heavenly Emperor Water are very special, related to the Heavenly Dao, and are darlings of the Heavenly Dao. Upon their birth, they possess power capable of contending with Great Emperors. Some strong individuals speculate they are special beings created by the Heavenly Dao to suppress dark disturbances.】

After all, the strong in the Upper Realm are quite self-centered, mostly seeking to become immortal. As a result, even if the dark turmoil greatly harms the Upper Realm, many emperors would choose to ignore it…

If there were no Dark Emperors emerging in a dark turmoil, the emperors would naturally suppress it effortlessly. However, if a Dark Emperor emerged, many emperors would choose to turn a blind eye…

This is because the impact of an emperor’s battle is too great, and it does not benefit them. They might even get stabbed in the back by their enemies…

Listening to Emperor Tianyu’s explanation, you remain silent, understanding the meaning behind his words. Cultivators are too selfish to unite for the greater good, preferring to dominate within their own nest. The Heavenly Dao feels these powerhouses are unreliable, so it creates beings like the Innate Emperor Flame to help suppress the dark turmoil in the Upper Realm…

At the same time, you also guessed the reason for the Heavenly Dao’s hatred towards the Incinerating Heaven Emperor and the curse on his descendants — perhaps because he ambushed and suppressed the Innate Emperor Flame…

While you were silent, Emperor Tianyu revealed the truth. During a large dark turmoil a hundred thousand years ago, the Innate Emperor Flame fought against the darkness. Then, the Incinerating Heaven Emperor and a friendly emperor chose to join the battle…

However, something unexpected occurred. The Incinerating Heaven Emperor ambushed the Innate Emperor Flame, suppressing it, and also killed the friendly emperor, severing his head to use it as a formation base to seal the Innate Emperor Flame…

After that incident, the Scarlet Clan was cursed by the Heavenly Dao and oppressed by other forces, especially the family of the ambushed emperor, who hated the Incinerating Heaven Emperor and the Scarlet Clan, wishing to annihilate them…

Unfortunately, due to the fall of the ambushed emperor, his clan was targeted by rival forces, vanishing from history first…

After hearing Emperor Tianyu’s story, you couldn’t help but sigh, surprised by what had transpired. The Incinerating Heaven Emperor was even more ruthless than you had imagined, and no wonder the Scarlet Clan received such special treatment, cursed by the Heavenly Dao…

Soon, you thought of another matter. Since the Innate Emperor Flame is so special, having suppressed it yourself, would you also be targeted by the Heavenly Dao…

Regarding your concern, Emperor Tianyu shook his head, expressing uncertainty about whether you would be targeted by the Heavenly Dao. This answer made you hesitant about whether to release the Innate Emperor Flame. After all, it was evidently a hot potato, likely to cause trouble…

Seeing your indecision, Emperor Tianyu, after some contemplation, suggested that the Heavenly Dao of the Upper Realm might have issues. If you could refine the Innate Emperor Flame, you might not encounter any problems. It is rumored that refining the Innate Emperor Flame could yield a physique superior to the Scarlet Flame Sacred Body, comparable to the Spacetime Dao Body…

At this, you felt puzzled. If these were the only benefits, the Incinerating Heaven Emperor wouldn’t have caused such a stir…

Emperor Tianyu smiled, stating that it was just a rumor. In reality, another rumor claimed that collecting the nine Heavenly Dao beings — gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, light, and darkness — could, through some means, grant the legendary Chaos Body. Of course, this was just a legend, as no one had managed to collect the nine Heavenly Dao beings, and the rumor might be completely fabricated…

You were shaken by Emperor Tianyu’s words, making connections in your mind. The Nine-Star Pavilion Master might have obtained the Chaos Body by seizing the nine Heavenly Dao origins and using the Devouring Immortal Demon Body or some other means…

It suggested that both the Nine-Star Pavilion Master and the anomaly might possess the Chaos Body, though you doubted that the anomaly’s Chaos Body was complete or as powerful. A Chaos Body formed from the origins of countless talents in a golden era could not compare to the Nine-Star Pavilion Master…

After all, he was a ruthless person who seized the origins of the Heavenly Dao and created the Ten Forbidden Lands, probably possessing the true Chaos Body…

As you were overwhelmed by these thoughts, Emperor Tianyu added another sentence, warning you not to underestimate the Emperor Flame Body, comparable to the Time Dao Body. To become an Emperor-level figure, one needs to meet several criteria…

First, your cultivation must reach the peak of the Emperor realm; second, you must possess a powerful physique like the Time Dao Body, Space Dao Body, or Destruction Dao Body, and develop it to the Great Perfection level; third, you must comprehend the true meaning of the Heavenly Dao at a Great Perfection level…

In other words, with the Emperor Flame Body, the Incinerating Heaven Emperor was qualified to advance to an Emperor-level figure, having a significant advantage in future battles for immortal fate…

Hearing Emperor Tianyu’s explanation, you felt a bit awkward. Due to the Life Simulator, you had encountered three quasi-immortals and witnessed two Chaos Bodies, including the Nine-Star Pavilion Master’s complete Chaos Body, causing you to overlook physiques like the Time Dao Body and Emperor Flame Body…

Indeed, you may be extraordinary, possessing the Spacetime Dao Body and the Origin-Breaking Divine Eyes, and having faced many formidable foes, but this doesn’t mean such physiques are weak. They are equally powerful and, when held by top-tier emperors, their significance becomes even more profound…

You learned a lesson, refraining from being overly picky and recognizing that the Chaos Body should not be your only standard of competition…

Next, you ponder the matter of the Innate Emperor Flame. If you could refine it, the benefits would be immense. If the legends are true, you might even attempt to seek the nine Heavenly Dao beings and form the Chaos Body…

After all, the Chaos Body might surpass even the seven-colored talent, a physique that the current Life Simulator cannot replicate. It’s likely that only after the Life Simulator’s optimization could it possibly generate such a physique…

However, you have a long way to go before optimizing the Life Simulator again, and it’s impossible to obtain the Chaos Body through it in the near future. Therefore, if you could obtain it through the resources of the Upper Realm, it would be highly advantageous…

Yet, you quickly sighed, realizing you were daydreaming. After all, the Innate Emperor Flame, targeted and suppressed by the Incinerating Heaven Emperor for so many years, remained immensely powerful. You were merely lucky in seizing the opportunity to suppress the Innate Emperor Flame, but it nearly cost your life, provoking the Incinerating Heaven Emperor…

Though Emperor Tianyu intervened, blocking the Incinerating Heaven Emperor and severely injuring him, it made you realize how dangerous this entity was. Not to mention, even if you possessed it, refining it would be difficult…

Upon considering other unknown and potentially powerful Heavenly Dao beings, you realized that obtaining them was a fool’s dream…

“Even if you become an emperor, you might not be able to collect all the Heavenly Dao beings. Besides, there are some specific methods that Emperor Tianyu mentioned, which you don’t know. Those are likely secrets known only to the Nine-Star Pavilion Master.”

“The Nine-Star Pavilion Master, someone who is nearly immortal… If you want to get secrets from him, it’s nothing short of a fool’s dream. Unless you can completely conceal your identity, join the Nine-Star Pavilion, and try to become a high-ranking member to extract those secrets.”

“However, this is clearly impossible to achieve. Unless you obtain a very special seven-colored talent, there is a slight chance you can deceive everyone.”

“Therefore, after much thought, you realize that instead of focusing on refining the nine Heavenly Dao beings, it’s more reliable to aim for acquiring a seven-colored talent that can plunder others’ physiques.”

“With that, when the anomaly gets a low-grade version of the Chaos Body, you can use this seven-colored talent to plunder it.”

“Of course, you soon think of an alternative. This method is to try letting Lin Yuanyuan drain the anomaly completely and then transfer the extracted essence to you.”

“For a moment, you think that cooperating with Lin Yuanyuan seems worth a try. As a result, your mind becomes more active, planning to attempt this in the next simulation.”

“However, you soon get discouraged. After all, your cultivation level has already reached the peak of the Heaven Supreme Realm. It’s impossible to enter that secret realm again.”

“Unless you make a drastic decision to downgrade your cultivation to the half-step Supreme level, only then can you enter the realm to contend with the anomaly.”

“However, directly downgrading your peak Heaven Supreme Realm cultivation to half-step Supreme is too costly, causing you significant pain. For a moment, you regret not thinking it through earlier.”

“If you had thought of it later, you could have waited until the golden era began to do this, without having to prematurely challenge the Supreme Heavenly Path.”

“After all, the Supreme Heavenly Path is a one-time opportunity. If you challenge it early, there are no rewards left for subsequent attempts. Even if your cultivation improves to the initial stage of the Origin Supreme realm, you can’t elevate directly to the peak Heaven Supreme realm again.”

“So many secrets exist… Now I understand more about the Chaos Body. Emperor Tianyu really is like an encyclopedia.”

“Perhaps I should chat more with Emperor Tianyu to inquire about all the secrets of the Upper Realm.”

Wang Ping couldn’t help but marvel in his heart as he looked at the simulated text.

Of course, although he said so, without obtaining the related items, revealing these secret explanations is impossible.

Certain matters must be encountered before they can be conveniently inquired about. Aimless questioning won’t yield anything.

Wang Ping then continued to stare at the screen.

“Next, you plan to self-seal, hoping to bide your time until the golden era to execute your plans.”

“Before self-sealing, you also left some instructions to the Supreme servant, asking them not only to lead Ye Chen and others in their cultivation but also to find Lin Yuanyuan and bring her to the Taiyi Emperor Palace.”

“In the blink of an eye, nearly a hundred thousand years passed, and the golden era arrived. Upon emerging, the first thing you did was choose to self-abolish your cultivation, reducing it to the half-step Supreme level.”

“This left Emperor Tianyu utterly baffled, unable to comprehend why you would commit such a foolish act. After some thought, you decided to reveal certain matters. These included the anomaly’s scheme against prodigies within the secret realm and the grand plan of the Nine-Star Pavilion Master.”

“Hearing your words, Emperor Tianyu was extremely shocked, somewhat doubting their authenticity. However, he eventually chose to believe you and began contemplating how to thwart the Nine-Star Pavilion Master.”

“You have no idea what Emperor Tianyu will do next, choosing instead to develop low-key, at most accepting a few disciples.”

“Eventually, as you remembered, the Immortal Palace opened. You successfully made it to the third round, entered the secret realm, and chose to step inside.”

“This time, when you stepped inside, you were no longer as solemn as in previous simulations, feeling remarkably calm.”

“After all, although your cultivation was reduced to the half-step Supreme level, your comprehension of 30% of the Heavenly Dao’s true essence was real, not to mention your Spacetime Dao Body and Origin-Breaking Divine Eyes had achieved small success. Coupled with those talents, you were confident that you could beat the anomaly to a pulp.”
