The skeletal humanoid was secretly shocked. This was truly a genuine Quasi-Immortal Emperor?! He seemed even more powerful than the one from the era of the Fallen Emperor!
"What's so great about the Heavenly Court? Can it help me advance to Immortal Emperor? Since it can't, why should I bother?" Cao Ya sneered.
The Heavenly Court, which rules over all the heavens, has power and responsibility.
Given Cao Ya's personality, if he were to do something, gaining immense power and becoming famous throughout the land would be a piece of cake. However, he would also do his best to fulfill his corresponding responsibilities.
For example, the division of interests, upward mobility, the interests and resources of ordinary people, fairness and justice... these are all things that can give people a headache. Although Cao Ya has led such affairs in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, he also feels mentally exhausted.
Even now, Meng Tianzheng, Shi Hao, and others are still leading the new order of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!
But these are all part of the Heavenly Court; how can the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths be enough?
Putting aside other matters, we should at least bring the Immortal Realm, the Burial Ground, and other major realms under our control.
Just thinking about the workload of ruling so many planes made Cao Ya want to back down.
As the owner of this world's homeland, he can do his best to guide it onto the right path and help it develop better.
But Cao Ya really wasn't in the mood for other realms.
Everyone should just mind their own business.
Therefore, establishing a heavenly court was never one of Cao Ya's options.
These are the real worries for Cao Ya. As for the dark blows he will suffer after establishing the Heavenly Court... Cao Ya doesn't care. Who isn't a Quasi-Immortal Emperor?
Most importantly, the Heavenly Court, which governs all the heavens and gathers the vital energy, is indeed of great use.
But it wouldn't be of much help to Cao Ya.
To be precise, the Creation Law and the Law of Using One's Body as Seed don't actually require much luck.
It's not some ancient or chaotic method.
Cao Ya's main cultivation system consists of two parts: the Creation of Realms Method and the Method of Using One's Body as a Seed. The Chaotic Ancient Method and the Immortal Ancient Method are relegated to the back.
Therefore, from any perspective, it is impossible for Cao Ya to build a Heavenly Court and exert his power over the Boundary Sea!
Of course, Cao Ya would eventually have to come and smash that bone-crowned humanoid figure.
The same applies to the Bone Staff; it cannot be left in the Boundary Sea area.
Both of these ancient artifacts contain profound darkness, but it has not yet fully erupted.
But even occasional outbursts can stir up the black mist at the edge of the boundary sea, causing waves to surge in.
"Besides, I'm going to the Boundary Sea afterward, straight to the end, to attack the Fallen Quasi-Immortal Emperors... one of them is Emperor Hong! Before that, I'll destroy his two Quasi-Immortal Emperor artifacts, which will also lighten his burden."
Their overall combat strength is indeed at the limit of the six-star peak, incredibly strong.
Even when fighting against opponents of the same level, Cao Ya will not be careless and will be extremely cautious.
The enemy, in particular, has four Quasi-Immortal Emperors! They have all attained enlightenment for countless years and studied the Corpse Immortal Emperor for many eras. Their attainments in the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm are profound, and they should not be underestimated.
The strongest World Destroyer was at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, and was almost at his limit.
In addition, we must also be wary of the Immortal Emperor with corpses within the Ultimate Ancient Land.
The original Immortal Emperor's consciousness has perished. The one that exists now within that Emperor's body is a will that has been reborn after being infected by the black blood. It is completely different from the previous one and is an evil being through and through!
Although the original consciousness of the Corpse Immortal Emperor restricted his imperial body before his death to prevent it from harming the Boundary Sea, his new consciousness was also imprisoned.
But times have changed, and a fallen quasi-immortal emperor is stirring up darkness again. No matter how vigilant we are, how can a quasi-immortal emperor detect the methods of an immortal emperor? Subtly, it is gradually eroding the initial arrangements of consciousness, and the time to completely escape is actually not long.
Of course, this is based on the time scale of the Immortal Emperor. Otherwise, normally it would still be calculated in units of ten thousand years, which is an endlessly long time.
"Being able to forge two quasi-immortal emperor artifacts, the strength of the Hong Emperor is beyond doubt."
Indeed, it is not true that the more weapons a cultivator forges, the more powerful they become.
However, even if one reaches the level of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, no matter how much rare and precious materials or divine resources one collects, it is not guaranteed that one can forge artifacts of this level.
It is necessary to instill the imperial way of a quasi-immortal emperor, inscribe supreme immortal runes, and guide the origin!
This is also a process for Quasi-Immortal Emperors to re-examine their own Dao principles.
Emperor Hong's actions clearly demonstrate that his mastery of the Great Dao is unparalleled.
The other two Quasi-Immortal Emperors were by no means weak, and the Old Man of Annihilation was even stronger!
Therefore, Cao Ya decided to destroy Hongdi's divine weapon here to weaken its combat power.
Incidentally, he pondered the profound mysteries of the Bone Crown and White Bone Staff, and analyzed the flaws in the Hongdi Dharma.
Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.
Cao Ya can indeed relax a bit when dealing with Immortal Kings and True Immortals because his combat power is far superior.
However, facing multiple quasi-Immortal Emperors... we must be very careful.
"Boom!" The bone-crowned humanoid figure, whose face was obscured, exuded an aura of imperial power that was extremely terrifying.
The white bone staff in its hand also exuded the essence of the ultimate path, shaking the river of time.
"Darkness is the final destination for all living beings! No one, among all living beings, can defy it!"
The bone-crowned humanoid spoke in a ruthless tone, yet with an air of arrogance.
It was as if the mortal world was not worthy of its attention.
"Who do you think you are? Even if Emperor Hong were here, he wouldn't dare to be so arrogant!" Cao Ya sneered.
“Hmm, you know…” The bone-crowned humanoid seemed surprised.
Logically speaking, even if the overlord within the Boundary Sea is a super genius who rises against the heavens and breaks through the King to become an Emperor, at most he can only sense the special nature of the Origin Ancient Artifact and the threat at the end of the Boundary Sea, but it is impossible for him to learn the name of the Hong Emperor!
The Old Man Who Destroys the World, the Hong Emperor, and others have all erased their deeds from ancient history.
They only need to stay at the end of the Boundary Sea, ponder the profound mysteries of the Great Dao of the Corpse Immortal Emperor, and then go with the flow to use darkness to reap the rewards of all the heavens. Why expose too much?
Even the ancient artifacts of origin, apart from those few quasi-immortal emperors, no one knows the secrets behind them.
However, at this moment, the World Dao Ancestor exposed his deception...
The shock that the Bone Crown Doll felt was indescribable!
Who exactly is this person? Could he be related to Di Luo?
But wasn't that Quasi-Immortal Emperor killed long ago? The Bone Crown and the White Bone Staff, both under the control of Emperor Hong, drank the Emperor's blood and underwent unknown evolution!
With all four emperors alive, how could any one of them possibly have a backup plan to escape?
"What is your relationship with Di Luo?" the bone-crowned humanoid asked menacingly.
Cao Ya raised an eyebrow, laughed, and said, "Oh, it seems you can't hold back anymore."
The skeletal humanoid said cruelly, "Once I kill you, I'll search your soul and refine your spirit, then I'll know everything."
After speaking, it brandished the white bone staff, and the two quasi-immortal emperor artifacts merged into one, unleashing unparalleled battle power!
The heavens trembled under the divine power of the bone crown and white bone staff, and countless stars teetered on the brink of collapse.
This is the first time since the fall of the Emperor that a battle between Quasi-Immortal Emperors has taken place across all ages!
Even with Cao Ya's great magical power to separate the inside from the outside, a certain Daoist charm still caused a sensation in the Boundary Sea!
"That's... the aura of an emperor?!"
Countless overlords, giants, and supreme giants of the world gazed into the distance towards the foreign land, their faces filled with utter astonishment.
They have been wandering in the Boundary Sea for countless years. Perhaps their cultivation has improved and they have reached the peak of the Immortal King realm, but they are still clueless about becoming Quasi-Immortal Emperors.
As a result, a mysterious emperor appeared behind the dam.
No! More than one! It seems like there are two... or three?
Many celestial kings found it unbelievable.
When did quasi-Immortal Emperors start appearing in droves?
Even during the era of the fallen emperors, there was only one recorded instance of this!
"I've heard that there is a World Dao Ancestor originating from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, whose power is boundless... Could one of them be him? And who are the other one or two?"
The Celestial Kings couldn't understand it, but that didn't matter anymore. The most urgent task was to rush back to the dam and travel to the foreign lands, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, to find out what was going on.
If I could witness the clash between quasi-immortal emperors, I would gladly die on the spot!
That was their greatest pursuit over countless years!
Thus, within the boundary sea, a long-awaited wave of return occurred.
Of course, the Boundary Sea is vast, and a single wave can be a world. Although the number of Immortal Kings accumulated since the beginning of time is considerable, it is still just a drop in the ocean when placed here.
However, the Celestial King is powerful enough to sense things even across thousands of planes.
However, no one took action. Attracted by the Quasi-Immortal Emperor, they all suppressed their impulses and temporarily put aside their old grudges.
"Unfortunately, we went too far back then, and now the journey back is far too long." They felt a little regretful.
"Whoosh!!!" However, several figures, unstoppable, sped across the Boundary Sea at a speed unimaginable even to Immortal Kings.
The butcher, the fake medicine seller, and the chicken farmer—the three strongest overlords of the three great seas—naturally wouldn't want to miss the battle against the Quasi-Immortal Emperors!
"According to the message I received from the Burial Master, the World Dao Ancestor is a true Quasi-Immortal Emperor."
"But other auras..."
Chicken farmers are also confused.
Suddenly, she felt a pang of regret. If she had known, she would have stayed in the burial ground like the deceased.
"Perfect timing. I'll go back and check on the chickens I raised back then, see if they've thrived." The chicken farmer smiled slightly.
The "chickens" she raises are actually mythical birds such as phoenixes!
Perhaps there is already a Celestial King, who knows?
"The Immortal Realm... it's time to go back." The butcher's thoughts were completely different from those of the chicken farmer.
He was born in the Immortal Realm and was the strongest genius of a certain era. Due to darkness and misfortune, he was forced to leave. Even after the misfortune dissipated and the Immortal Realm regained its peak, he dared not return. At most, he would occasionally gaze at his homeland from afar in the Boundary Sea.
The butcher knew very well that behind the darkness lay an unpredictable existence capable of causing the fall of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor. How could he, a mere Emperor Light Immortal King, possibly stand against such a power?
But a new Quasi-Immortal Emperor has been born, and it is said that he is a being from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths...
"Moreover, I'm pretty sure that two of the auras belong to the Dark faction!"
The butcher's eyes were cold and dark. He could never forget the destruction of eras and the heavy casualties.
Just for this reason alone, I have to go back!
He can't defeat the Ominous Source in a one-on-one fight, but with the Quasi-Immortal Emperor World Ancestor... Emperor Light Immortal King, he should be able to serve as a deputy and assist the World Ancestor, right?
"I can't do it alone! There are also people who bury the deceased, sell fake medicine, and raise chickens!"
The butcher knew how powerful those three were; they were no weaker than him.
They are all top-tier overlords of the Boundary Sea!
"The World Dao Ancestor... Oh, him! I vaguely remember him!"
On the other hand, the person selling fake medicine actually had a deeper understanding of the Dao Ancestor of the World than the butcher from the Immortal Realm or the chicken farmer from the Burial Ground.
He was called "the fake medicine seller" because his soul was split off, and a single strand of his soul entered the world's divine medicine and immortal elixir. He was nourished in the most spiritually beautiful place in the universe. Later, he followed the chosen one of great destiny, observed the trajectory of the person of destiny, perfected his own path, and sought the dawn of the imperial road.
Back then, the number one spiritual root in the eight regions of the lower realm contained his soul essence, but it was not exposed.
Among the spiritual treasures that Shi Hao later obtained, there were also lurking souls of those who sold fake medicine.
He also had a direct conversation with Shi Hao.
After all, Shi Hao's experience of "using his own body as a seed" and becoming an immortal in the mortal world surprised the fake medicine seller.
As the original body, the experiences of those divided souls will not be transmitted to him indefinitely, since even the great supernatural powers of Emperor Light Immortal King will be blocked across the Boundary Sea.
However, from time to time, I can still learn about many experiences of split souls and gain some insights.
Thus, the fake medicine seller was shocked to discover that, apart from the World Dao Ancestor, the "Wilderness" in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths seemed to be about to break through to become an emperor.
"Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, is it really that powerful?"
Thinking of that willow tree deep in the border sea recently, even those selling fake medicine can't help but twitch at the corner of their eye.
"According to the name used in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, she should be called Willow God? The ancestral spirit of the Immortal Ancient, reborn through Nirvana? She is becoming more courageous with each setback, and is about to enter the level of Emperor Light Immortal King."
"And that little tower..."
Even the seller of counterfeit medicine couldn't figure out the origin of that little tower.
But both Liu Shen and Xiao Ta were extremely fierce, making even the mighty Emperor Guang Immortal King feel troubled.
"They even claimed it was a treasure belonging to one of the three thousand great figures from the Upper Realm... Hah, how laughable!"
The person selling fake medicine scoffed.
The true origin of the small tower may very well point directly to the era of the fallen emperors!
Otherwise, in the three thousand provinces, even those at the first level of the Escape Realm could be called "Supreme." What could possibly make him take notice?
"Yes, for countless years, we haven't been able to set foot at the edge of the Boundary Sea, and we don't know what's there or what's inside. Furthermore, we haven't figured out the reason for the collapse of the Imperial City."
"Perhaps, going back to the rear of the dike and traveling to the great realms such as the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the Immortal Realm, the Burial Ground, and the Otherworld will yield different results."
The speed at which counterfeit drugs are sold has accelerated; with a single step, a whole world can be left behind.
Even so, it is still very far from the dam.
Only by sensing from afar, through the fluctuations of the supreme divine way, can one perceive the battle situation in the distance.
In a secluded area of the border sea, a willow tree took human form, its peerless beauty vanishing in a flash.
At the same time, a dilapidated small tower disappeared along with the willow tree.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"
Not to mention the unusual events within the Boundary Sea, even the kings of the Immortal Realm couldn't hold back and descended to the mortal realm one after another, joining the powerful figures of the Burial Ground to watch from the desolate borderlands.
"An imperial treasure!!!"
Upon seeing the humanoid figure with a bone crown and a white bone staff, no Celestial King could remain calm.
"The World Dao Ancestor is indeed the one who broke through the King and became an Emperor!"
All the immortals and Buddhas from all directions were completely focused on their work!
Even the immortals and immortal masters who were still fighting in the other realms had their divine senses paying attention to the clash between the World Dao Ancestor and the Ancient Artifact of Origin!
This is arguably the most eye-catching battle in the world right now!
The power of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor extends throughout the eight wastelands and crushes the six directions; even the supreme giant, the Immortal King, must bow down.
Each side has a strong belief in the power of their own faction!
"World Dao Ancestor, do you require my assistance?" the Burial Master inquired, his tone revealing a hint of eagerness.
A quasi-Immortal Emperor artifact... If only I could exchange blows with it...
Of course, if he were to face it alone, he would be completely crushed by the ancient artifact of origin!
Below the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, there is no possibility of ever being able to rival a Quasi-Immortal Emperor!
"Haha, thank you, but no need. Just watch the battle carefully. If you can break through to Quasi-Immortal Emperor, that would be the best!" Cao Ya laughed.
"The Burial Master deserves to be executed!" The bone-crowned humanoid looked over with a cold gaze, almost extinguishing the Burial Master's imperial aura.
