"This can be a good deed, a reminder to the immortals of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths." The Burial Master's eyes flickered, and the Great Dao rippled, conveying a message to the immortals.
In the distance, the immortals received the message from the deceased and clasped their hands in a gesture of respect.
"An ancient artifact? It seems to be related to an emperor?" The True Dragon, the Lord of the Forbidden Zone, and others were all taken aback.
But upon closer reflection, it seems to make perfect sense.
"Both the Otherworld and the Burial Realm contain ancient artifacts of origin."
"Not only the life essence of all races within the realm, but even their cultivation paths are deeply connected to their respective ancient artifacts of origin!"
"As everyone knows, the Otherworld is an extremely prosperous realm, and the Burial Ground is also a first-class realm!"
"The origin of the ancient artifacts must be extremely profound to have created such a region!"
"It's related to the emperor, so it makes sense."
The immortals were all discussing what that ancient artifact of origin was.
Is it from the era of imperial decline?
Which quasi-Immortal Emperor forged it?
"At the end of the Immortal Era, the alien realm conquered the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, searching the Eight Desolations, all in order to find a seed. It seems that they intended to use it to unlock the ancient artifact of the alien realm's origin?" the Immortal Monk King pondered.
“That’s true!” Old Horned Ant shook his head and said, “But how come the key to the ancient artifact from another realm is with us?”
"Who cares if it exists! Killing the Immortal King is the key!" The second-best in the world was full of murderous intent.
"We must not be careless either," Immortal Golden Daoist said solemnly. "That foreign land enshrines an ancient artifact of origin, which is unknown in age. What if it can actually be used..."
Upon hearing this, Cao Ya smiled and said, "It's alright! It's just an object; it won't cause any trouble."
"We still need to be cautious," the Lord of the Forbidden Zone warned. The existence of the Origin Artifact had once intimidated the supreme giants of the Boundary Sea, and even the Emperor Light Immortal King, and should not be underestimated.
Cao Ya nodded, still calm and collected, which made the immortals somewhat anxious, fearing that the World Dao Ancestor might have underestimated his opponent and something bad might have happened!
"Don't be impulsive!" the female Kunpeng said. As a teacher from a different generation, her words carried more weight in Cao Ya's eyes than those of a Celestial King!
"Teacher, please don't worry. I've made some calculations based on cause and effect and fate... Hey, those so-called ancient artifacts of origin aren't anything special." Cao Ya chuckled.
In fact, he didn't use the principles of cause and effect or destiny to calculate it, since he already understood the situation of the [Perfect World] universe.
Originating from an ancient artifact, it came from a fallen quasi-immortal emperor at the edge of the boundary sea, harboring mysterious intentions.
That "Hongdi" left his mark on both of the ancient artifacts from which he originated.
The reason why the Immortal Kings of the Otherworld and the Burial Domain have studied for at least dozens of eras but have gained nothing, and have not even noticed the divine consciousness imprint of the "Hong Emperor" is mainly because the essence of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor far surpasses that of the Immortal King, like clouds and mud.
In reality, apart from the emperor of the Fallen Emperor Era, no one else has ever been able to set foot at the end of that Boundary Sea!
Even the Emperor Guangxianwang could only sigh in vain.
Therefore, no one knew about the existence of those quasi-Immortal Emperors and the corpse of an Immortal Emperor.
At best, he had some vague understanding of the era of the fallen emperors, but it was not thorough enough, and it even aroused the suspicion of many immortal kings who believed that the era of the fallen emperors might be a fiction and not a real ancient history!
"Is it also an ominous artifact?" Shi Hao's heart stirred as he thought of his Great Luo Sword Embryo.
"That ancient artifact is far inferior to your Great Luo Sword Embryo," Cao Ya said in a nonchalant tone.
The Great Luo Sword Embryo was forged by the Corpse Immortal Emperor using scraps from the Three Incarnations Copper Coffin. Tracing its origins, it may be connected to the Dao of Sacrifice.
The ancient artifact of origin is a quasi-immortal emperor artifact, which is not even as good as an immortal emperor artifact, let alone a great Luo sword embryo.
However, the Great Luo Sword Embryo's essence is too high. Ordinary Immortal Emperors cannot withstand the heavy pressure of their destiny, and accidents will occur, leading to their demise.
Therefore, the sword embryo in Shi Hao's hand has never shown its true power!
Only when Shi Hao breaks through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level will the initial unsealing process begin.
Having ascended to the highest level of the heavens as an Immortal Emperor, Shi Hao, with his abilities, was able to completely master this Great Luo Sword Embryo!
"This ominous artifact is so powerful?" the Thunder Emperor asked in surprise.
There have been countless rumors about the Great Luo Sword Embryo not only in the Chaotic Ancient Era, but also in the Immortal Ancient Era and earlier.
The founders of the Immortal Realm system perished long ago!
Every ancient history book will dedicate a great deal of space to this major event.
"Perhaps it's even more powerful than I thought!" Cao Ya said.
"Shi Hao, you should strive to break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm as soon as possible... Well, even Quasi-Immortal Emperor isn't enough. Even if your combat strength is unmatched among those of the same level, you still need to become an Immortal Emperor to subdue the Great Luo Sword Embryo!"
Shi Hao rubbed his forehead and gave a wry smile.
The World Dao Ancestor really thinks highly of him! He's only on the verge of becoming an Emperor Light Immortal King, not even truly stepping into that realm yet, let alone a Quasi-Immortal Emperor. And yet the World Dao Ancestor has already set his sights on him as an Immortal Emperor!
"Haha, Shi Hao, keep it up! With your comprehension, breaking through the King realm and becoming an Emperor is not an exaggeration." The female Kunpeng laughed, very optimistic about Shi Hao.
She herself is confident that she can attain the Immortal King realm, but she is only hovering at the level of Supreme Immortal King and Giant. As for the Supreme Giant, it depends on her future fortune. As for Quasi-Immortal Emperor, she can forget about it.
"You are outstanding! And with the guidance of the World Dao Ancestor, you have a chance to break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm," Meng Tianzheng said, very pleased.
Even if he went back tens of thousands of years, he would never have imagined that the two cultivators from the Eight Regions of the Lower Realm would actually reach this point!
"Don't feel pressured, we're all here," the Lord of the Forbidden Zone said gently.
"Yes." Shi Hao nodded emphatically; he would not let people down.
"Haha, two emperors in one realm! Even the era of fallen emperors couldn't compare!"
Because of Cao Ya's existence as a "quasi-Immortal Emperor," the immortals were not in a tense mood.
How could an ancient artifact, the origin of a quasi-immortal emperor's weapon, possibly defeat a true powerhouse of this realm?
As for the immortal kings and immortals of other realms... let them handle that!
Although the enemy outnumbered them far, the immortals were confident that they could fight two or three enemies at a time!
Furthermore, Shi Hao was also present, and even the supreme giants of the alien realm would find it difficult to withstand Shi Hao's sword strike!
Even if the three members of the Boundary Sea Group arrive, Shi Hao can still withstand them head-on!
With these two powerful beings around, the immortals had no choice but to relax.
Compared to the heaviness of the ancient times, it was worlds apart.
However, the thought of the deep-seated hatred from the past fueled their anger.
Those blood-stained executioners deserve to be killed to appease public anger!
They were indeed resurrected, but many other immortal masters, such as the Immortal King of No End, the Immortal King of Six Paths of Reincarnation, and the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, perished as a result.
The number of human cultivators who have passed away is countless!
How can we forget the blood debts of the hundreds of millions of people slaughtered during the invasion of foreign lands?
"That burial master is quite powerful; he is an Emperor Light Immortal King," Cao Ya murmured.
The burial master, the butcher, the fake medicine seller, and the chicken farmer are all at the level of Emperor Light Immortal King.
The names of the four great heroes are very famous and their power is known throughout the world!
Of course, in front of Cao Ya now, even the Emperor Light Immortal King appears weak.
He considered whether to remind the owner of the hidden dangers of the ancient artifact and repay the owner's kindness—although he was fully aware of it even without the owner's warning! But the other party was unaware and still did so... that kindness was indeed genuine.
"The Burial Master is an ancient artifact, but it cannot be completely trusted! It can be used as a reference to understand the path of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, but one should not become too involved. Caution is paramount!"
"This kind of object likely has an owner..."
Cao Ya still pointed to the burial site.
Deep within the burial mound, the deceased, his expression solemn, muttered to himself, "Is there really a problem?"
For him, it all began with this ancient artifact.
Despite countless years of in-depth analysis, nothing was found. Moreover, after advancing to the Emperor Light Immortal King level, he could occasionally faintly sense the fluctuations of supreme divine power within the ancient artifact of origin...
Unlike the immortal kings of other realms, the Burial Master also had some reservations about this ancient artifact of origin.
But to simply abandon it... that's impossible! Although the burial ground has developed and can reproduce on its own, the importance of the ancient artifact has declined, but the path to becoming a quasi-immortal emperor for the burial kings still requires reference to this artifact.
However, we need to be more careful from now on.
"You want to go to the other world through this road... I'm afraid it won't work!" said the Burial Master.
That abyssal storm not only prevented the immortal king from crossing realms, but also blocked the immortals of the nine heavens and ten earths.
Despite being the Emperor Light Immortal King, the Burial Master is still in danger when facing the chaotic and disorderly Heavenly Abyss!
“Simple.” Cao Ya smiled slightly, took a few steps forward, and casually pointed his finger at Tianyuan.
"Hiss." Cao Ya's fingers were like white jade, exuding an immortal aura, flowing with nine-colored rosy light, mysterious and condensed.
The next second, under the watchful eyes of the immortals and the heroes of the Burial Ground, Cao Ya pointed a finger down, and the sky collapsed and the earth shattered!
"Rumble!!" The violent sound shook the entire world. The nine-colored light was invincible and actually opened up a passage in the torrent of laws!
"What?!" The expert in the Burial Grounds was horrified.
That is a Quasi-Immortal Emperor?
"I can't withstand this finger strike; I'll definitely die!" The Burial Master held his breath.
His imperial radiance was utterly insignificant compared to the divine light, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
"The power of a quasi-Immortal Emperor is unprecedented! Only someone with such great supernatural abilities could leave an indelible footprint on the dike of the Boundary Sea."
The burial master was amazed, having witnessed the Quasi-Immortal Emperor's move firsthand; how fortunate he was!
He started contacting chicken farmers through various channels.
However, it is not easy to do this across the Boundary Sea. Even with the power of Emperor Light Immortal King, it is very difficult and will take time.
"A quasi-Immortal Emperor!" The immortals of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths exclaimed in admiration.
That single finger gesture was like the creation of heaven and earth, shaping the universe and the starry sky. No matter what level of immortal king you are, you must bow down!
"This finger strike contains elements of void, time, cause and effect, and sword intent."
Shi Hao stared intently, memorizing the Daoist rhyme emitted by Cao Ya, and constantly pondering it.
Even if the methods of a quasi-immortal emperor are not necessarily suitable for him, he can still gain insights by analogy.
In particular, Shi Hao already knew all the methods of the World Dao Ancestor.
Of course, the reverse is also true.
The only difference is that their priorities are different.
"The Emperor of Immortals, unparalleled in all the heavens..." Shi Hao murmured to himself, lost in thought.
"Gentlemen, on this journey to the foreign land, we will pay for our blood debts with blood!" King Kunpeng roared, flying into the passage.
"Let's go!" True Dragon, Second in the World, Immortal Golden Daoist, Lord of the Forbidden Zone, and others all headed straight for the foreign realm.
"In the past, the ancestral spirit fought its way in and out of a foreign land seven times, but ultimately disappeared!"
"This time, we must utterly defeat the foreign lands and wipe out all the executioners!"
The original Emperor Guan Qi Wang, Lei Di, Nu Kunpeng, and others were all brimming with fighting spirit.
Their immortal artifacts and immortal king artifacts were also trembling, as if they wanted to drink the blood of their enemies!
The destruction of the Immortal Ancient Realm was devastating, with heavy casualties and blood staining the sky red... Today is the day to retaliate against the alien realm!
"Fight!" Meng Tianzheng, Shi Hao, and the ancient immortals also charged into the alien realm.
Cao Ya ended up at the back, but he wasn't in a hurry. With the strength of a quasi-Immortal Emperor, his position didn't affect his ability to make a move.
"The alien realm is doomed!"
"Heh, they deserve it, they're from another land!"
"Throughout the entire Boundary Sea, there is no place where the sins are more heinous than those of the alien realm; they are simply too numerous to count! From ancient times to the present, at least dozens or even hundreds of planes have been slaughtered by the alien realm!"
The kings' eyes burned with anticipation, eagerly awaiting the fall of the foreign land.
If they hadn't heeded the instructions, they would have all wanted to take action!
"Can an ancient artifact from another realm withstand the Dao Ancestor of the World?" the Burial Master asked remotely.
Through that passage, the immortal cultivators of the Burial Grounds witnessed the shock of the alien realm!
"Who goes there? Hmm, it's you guys?!"
The immortal king of the alien realm who was guarding the Heavenly Abyss had just noticed the commotion when he suddenly stood up and saw a passage connecting the two realms, from which a large group of immortals flew out!
They're all acquaintances in some sense!
"Heh, so it's you who's in charge here? I remember, the collapse of billions of miles of territory in the Great Crimson Heaven and the sudden deaths of trillions of lives were your doing, weren't they?"
The dragon narrowed its eyes and revealed its true form: a divine dragon that appeared out of nowhere, its whiskers fluttering, its scales reflecting a cold light, and with a flick of its tail, it struck the immortal king.
"A true dragon? You've really been resurrected?! But do you think you're my match?" The Immortal King sneered.
Both are powerful Immortal Kings, so who is worse than the other?
However, he cultivated extensively during the Chaotic Ancient Era... and most importantly, he deeply studied the ancient immortal techniques of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!
Although he lacked the most supreme supernatural powers such as the Ten Fierce Treasures, the inferior, middle, and superior treasures had all been plundered by the foreign lands. With his talent as a Celestial King, he had long since seen through those ancient immortal techniques, and there were no secrets in his eyes.
Under such circumstances, in a battle between experts of the same level, even those from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths would be at a disadvantage!
But after being reborn, after five thousand years, how could the immortals be completely unaware of the three extraordinary paths of the Creation Law, the Law of Using One's Body as a Seed, and the Law of Chaos?
Furthermore, the foreign lands only obtained a small portion of the immortal techniques and treasures.
In a true life-or-death battle, a one-on-one duel, the immortals are in no way inferior to the immortals and kings of the foreign lands.
The more skilled ones can even fight against overwhelming odds, or even turn the tables!
For example, female Kunpeng and Thunder Emperor can annihilate ordinary Immortal Kings from other realms! Even if a supreme Immortal King were to arrive, the question of who is stronger or weaker would only be answered after a battle!
Of course, seeing all the immortals from the nine heavens and ten earths arrive, even the Immortal King dared not try to stop them.
"True dragon, I will spare your life! When all the kings of my realm gather, I will come back to kill you!" The immortal king roared, startling the boundless mountains and rivers of the alien realm. The immortal aura rose throughout the eight wastelands and six directions.
He then prepared to leave immediately.
"Snap." However, Cao Ya, who was the last to walk out of the passage, only waved from a distance, and the Immortal King was horrified to find that he was constantly shrinking.
That immortal physique and the eternal Dao could not resist, and seemed to fall silent.
"The Elixir of Immortality!"
In the end, this immortal king was captured by Cao Ya and turned into a pill.
"This kind of Great Pill is useless." Cao Ya shook his head and casually tossed it away. The Immortal Great Pill flew out, breaking through the void, flying over one star sea after another, and landing in the ancient land of origin in another realm, where there was a golden temple!
