Chapter 29 Ancient Star's Predecessor
Moreover, and most importantly, this immortal abode world played a crucial role in his plans.
He certainly wouldn't bring Jiang Ling here casually, after all, this was his secret base since his resurrection.
The main purpose of bringing Jiang Ling here was to use his power to achieve some ulterior motives.
Thinking of this, the Emperor stood up, his eyes becoming more determined, and his aura becoming stronger. His vast divine power caused the Immortal Path world to continuously crumble.
The next moment, he formed a hand seal, transferring the energy from Jiang Ling's original Dao and his own divine power into the depths of the Immortal Path.
"Um?"
Seeing the Emperor's actions, Jiang Ling looked puzzled.
But the next moment he understood why the Emperor had done this.
The fluctuations generated by the convergence of the two fundamental forces caused the Immortal Path to shatter over a large area.
"That is..."
After the line was broken, a deep, dark ancient cave appeared, with the entrance emanating chaotic energy and immortal laws.
Jiang Ling couldn't understand why such a change had occurred on the path to immortality. This path to immortality had long been proven to be a failure.
Theoretically speaking, the ultimate fate of this path is complete annihilation, shattering into chaos.
Seemingly sensing Jiang Ling's doubts, the Emperor continued, "The Primordial Ancient Star, like the Flying Immortal Star, is an ancient star originating from the chaotic era!"
The human realm today originates from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths of the Chaotic Ancient Era. Many ancient stars, and even some chaotic small worlds, contain relics from that era.
As one of the few powerful ancient life-bearing stars in the human world today, the Primordial Ancient Star naturally has an extraordinary origin, but no one knows exactly when it can be traced back to.
Jiang Ling didn't believe that the Emperor was simply explaining the origin of this ancient star; she was certain that the ancient star of life had a past unknown to others.
"The predecessor of the ancient star was related to a person!" the Emperor said.
"Who is it?"
Jiang Ling felt a sense of unease and quickly asked.
"The Desolate Heavenly Emperor!"
"This was once his homeland; in the distant past, it was called the Wasteland!"
The Emperor spoke, then turned and walked towards the Chaos Cave.
Jiang Ling's pupils contracted as she instantly realized that, according to the Emperor's statement, the entire Primordial Ancient Star, including the surrounding ancient life-bearing stars, was the Lower Realm Eight Regions during the Chaotic Ancient Period.
Among the eight realms below, the only one that could move the Emperor's heart, besides the personal factors of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, was the Void God Realm of the Chaotic Ancient Era.
Although the Void God Realm was shattered during the Chaotic Ancient Era, if the Emperor is truly related to the Eternal Calamity, it means that there are other Eternal Calamity substances in the sealed Lower Realm Eight Domains.
Ultimately, the calamity of immortality is nothing more than a group of people who have already failed but are still unwilling to accept defeat, and a lingering obsession remains in the world.
That lingering, unwilling obsession will drive the host to reclaim his physical body; the Emperor's current actions are clearly influenced by the Calamity of Immortality.
"I never imagined that the once mighty emperor who dominated the heavens and the earth would become a pawn in someone else's game."
Jiang Ling laughed loudly, her laughter filled with sighs.
"A pawn? Who in this world dares to use me as a pawn!"
The Emperor paused, then spoke.
"The world is foolish, foolishly hoping that the gates to the immortal realm will open on their own. How laughable and ignorant!"
The Immortal Realm is no longer the Immortal Realm it once was. To enter, one must rely on oneself; the same applies to achieving immortality!
After speaking, the Emperor strode forward, about to enter the Chaos Cave.
In today's universe, and even in the Immortal Realm, there are far more supreme beings than in the forbidden zones.
With his strength, entering the Immortal Realm wasn't impossible, but he didn't want to just enter the Immortal Realm like that.
The true immortals who achieve enlightenment in the Dharma-ending Age are fundamentally different from those who achieve enlightenment in the Immortal Realm after receiving injections.
Since his second incarnation, he has been determined to achieve the supreme foundation of the Dao by sacrificing blood to the universe and using the origin of all living beings in the universe.
By using the origin of the entire universe to achieve self-realization, one can quickly ascend to the realm of immortals in the mortal world and obtain an unparalleled foundation for the Dao.
Of course, it is undoubtedly very difficult for someone at the Supreme Realm to seize the origin of the universe, requiring a long period of time to continuously refine the origin of the universe.
Even though he had been preparing for this matter since he attained enlightenment, his hasty actions still leaked the news, ultimately leading to the collapse of the Heavenly Court.
However, he did not give up his idea of refining the origin of the universe and continued to secretly make plans.
Even if Jiang Ling discovers his identity and plans, it won't stop him.
In his eyes, although Jiang Ling was strong, in this world where immortality was impossible, she could only exist for tens of thousands of years at most, which would not have much impact on his plans.
As for Jiang Ling leaking the news that he was still alive, he wasn't worried at all.
Because time will fade everything, and the supreme being inside the forbidden zone wouldn't believe he's still alive.
Even if the supreme being inside knew that he was still alive, it wouldn't change anything.
With tens or hundreds of thousands of years, given his current foundation and talent, he would probably have become a true immortal by then. Who in this world could be his enemy?
Therefore, after the Chaos Cave leading to the Desolate Realm appeared, he gave up the idea of continuing to fight Jiang Ling.
"boom!"
Jiang Ling made her move, time reversed beneath her feet, and she unleashed the Annihilation Fist.
Having undergone the Great Cleansing of Chaos, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, having lost their Mandate of Heaven and the substance of immortality, entered the Age of Dharma Decline, and the dark matter retreated.
For many living beings, such a vast expanse of heaven and earth presents both a crisis and an opportunity.
Without interference from external enemies or the hidden dangers of dark matter, as long as someone provides guidance, we can still return to the glorious days of the Immortal Ancient Era.
Like gold being sifted from sand, even though this universe remains incredibly cruel, there will always be those who eventually reach the realm of immortality.
In the original trajectory, following the Emperor, the Immortal Emperor successfully embarked on this path.
However, he was not a native being of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and had no sense of belonging to the current universe, so he devoted his life to returning to the Immortal Realm.
Otherwise, with his talent, in this cruel and degenerate age, he might have become the first immortal being to recognize the passage of time.
The Emperor's entry into the Desolate Realm through this Chaos Cave may very well bring about unpredictable changes.
What Jiang Ling feared most was that he might bring out ominous and strange substances from the secret realm.
He was determined to change the current environment of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and naturally could not allow those strange substances to reappear in the world.
Therefore, although he himself was interested in the desolate secret realm inside the Chaos Cave, he still had to prevent the Emperor from entering the Chaos Cave or destroying it, so as not to let the strange substances that might exist inside leak out.
boom!
Faced with Jiang Ling's bombardment, you used the same trick again, transferring all the energy he unleashed into the Chaos, causing the Chaos Cave to expand considerably once more.
"Damn it!"
Seeing the Chaos Cave grow larger, Jiang Ling's expression also turned grim.
That chaotic cave cannot last forever; as long as he holds off the Emperor, the chaotic cave will close automatically.
However, it was because of their supreme laws that the Chaos Cave was able to persist for so long.
"Thank you, fellow Daoist!"
As the Emperor spoke, he strode into the Chaos Cave.
Standing at the entrance of the Chaos Cave, Jiang Ling's eyes flickered. After the Emperor's aura entered, it completely disappeared, and even he could not detect it.
Moreover, as time goes by, the Chaos Cave is slowly closing.
