After leaving the spatial interlayer, Zhang Bairen went directly to the Dark Kingdom.
Then, they captured the Dark Elf clan who had been exposed on the spot.
“You have sensed the ether, and I have sensed you.”
"The dark elves, barely clinging to life, now who is the hunter and who is the prey?" Zhang Bairen's mental power, enhanced by the power of the phoenix, enveloped all the dark elves.
In the blink of an eye, it was all over in a second.
"The dark magic of the dark elves, and dark matter technology."
Sure enough, they all had the literal meaning of the concept of darkness. Zhang Bairen gained a lot of knowledge from Malekith's mind.
This is the magic and technology of the Dark Elves, and also their ancient heritage upon which they depend for survival.
Dark magic, in particular, borrows power, which aligns with the basic premise of the Marvel universe.
However, this power was not borrowed from Dormammu, nor from Mephisto.
Instead, it borrows from one of the oldest gods, the god of the underworld, Sithon.
This is one of the oldest ancient gods in the world, just like Gaia.
God of Black Magic, God of the Underworld, creator of the Dark Book, source of Chaos Magic, and one of the four cornerstones of the world.
Asgard, the Aesir, were connected to Gaia in the earliest history.
The Dark Elves, surprisingly, were no weaker and could be associated with Sithon.
No wonder, that dark power could change the basic form of the Infinity Stones.
No wonder the Dark Elves harbor ambitions to plunge the universe into darkness.
If it can be connected to Sithon, then it becomes somewhat understandable.
However, the Dark Elf race had already begun to weaken long before the war with Bor began.
For tens of thousands of years now, no one has regained mastery of dark magic.
That's why these stray dogs abandoned dark magic and turned to studying dark technology.
In other words, it's dark matter technology.
The Dark Elves' stealth technology was so advanced that even Asgard couldn't detect it. This was because the Dark Elves' ships were hidden within the dark matter plane.
Furthermore, the Dark Elves' black hole grenades are also manufactured using dark matter technology.
This technology is somewhat similar to the Dark Dimension technology of Super God Academy, but there are also slight differences.
However, there are also similarities.
The Dark Elf gift pack was quite a surprise to Zhang Bairen.
Unexpectedly, this unexpected gain was so substantial.
But if you think about it carefully, it's actually quite normal.
For example, Earth can be considered the core of the universe, with Infinity Stones, magic, technology, gods, ancient gods, and various background settings.
Asgard has the Aesir gods, Gaia's background, and the World Tree's background.
The Dwarven Kingdom can mass-produce artifacts, using neutron stars as forges.
The Frost Giants' Kingdom is home to the Casket of Ice, the Ancestor of Ancient Giants, and various other giants.
The realm of fire giants is home to the eternal flame, Surtur, and the legacy of divine artifacts.
It can be said that any of the Nine Realms is an extraordinary country with an extraordinary foundation.
Although the Dark Kingdom has fallen into decline and been destroyed, its inherent strength should not be underestimated.
"Unfortunately, the basic science and technology system has been destroyed, and the ability to conduct research and development has been lost."
The Dark Elves have dwindled to just a few dozen people, and they rarely dare to show their faces in public.
Furthermore, Asgard's surveillance and the Dark Elves' arrogance meant they were neither capable nor willing to cooperate with other forces.
"That's why the Dark Elves have never been able to recover," Zhang Bairen muttered to himself.
The power of the Dark Elf's mind was fixed and transformed into a fire of the mind.
The Fallen Heart Flame combined with the Phoenix Flame burned the last remaining members of the Dark Elf race to death.
Taking all the Dark Elves' legacy with him, Zhang Bairen returned to the Kunlun Dimension.
Go out and become a top expert surpassing the Heavenly Father level, bringing back various divine artifacts, treasures, and resources.
Now, he is ready to ascend the throne and become emperor.
Faced with Zhang Bairen's powerful return, the third Jade Emperor, who was still at the level of the Heavenly Father, was not angry at all, but instead breathed a sigh of relief.
His competitors were too outstanding, which put him under a lot of pressure.
Now it's all good; he can resign from the Jade Emperor's position and focus on his cultivation.
Inside the Lingxiao Palace, the Jade Emperor, clad in emerald green armor, retrieved an ancient wooden whip from the void and tossed it to Zhang Bairen.
"This is the God-Slaying Whip, a symbol of the Jade Emperor, made from a branch of the World Tree."
From now on, I'm entrusting it to you.
In addition, the succession ceremony of the Jade Emperor of the Celestial Clan needs to be held solemnly.
Three days from now, you will officially ascend the throne.
"At that time, try to invite as many people as possible to attend the ceremony," the third Jade Emperor began.
“Alright, I can invite my friends from Asgard, as well as my friends from the Dwarves.”
"If we need someone to keep things in order, we also have some powerful friends from parallel universes who can come over in person." Zhang Bairen caught the God-Slaying Whip and curiously swung it a couple of times.
"Parallel universes? There are no dimensional demons, are there?" the Third Jade Emperor asked.
"How is that possible? Dimensional demons cannot enter the real universe; they are my counterparts from another world."
"This is my special talent; I can sense different versions of myself," Zhang Bairen replied casually.
This situation, while unexpected by the three Jade Emperors, was not unacceptable.
After all, even the lineage of the Sorcerer Supreme knows the situation of the multiverse, so there's no reason why the Kunlun Immortal Clan wouldn't know.
Moreover, the Kunlun dimension itself is not in the normal universe. Parallel worlds and dimensional spaces are already quite familiar to the Kunlun Immortal Clan.
"Your counterpart from another world? Are they also from the Kunlun Immortal Clan?" the Third Jade Emperor asked curiously.
"No, they are not the Kunlun Immortal Clan."
"I have a different identity in each world, you'll find out then," Zhang Bairen replied with a smile.
"Alright, I'm already looking forward to it." The third Jade Emperor shrugged and didn't delve any further.
"Speaking of which, you trust me so much, why don't you test my strength?" Zhang Bairen looked at the Third Jade Emperor with great curiosity.
"There's no need. If you wanted to sit on the Jade Emperor's throne, you could have challenged him long ago."
I know you; you and I are both people with extremely high self-esteem.
"Without absolute power, one would not utter the words of ascending to the throne." The third Jade Emperor said, sitting on the steps.
"Yes, your analysis is correct."
"I have no reason to deceive you." Zhang Bairen also sat down, and the two sat on the same level, looking at the somewhat illusory sunset.
"To be honest, you are so outstanding that it puts a lot of pressure on me."
As you probably know, I wear armor, unlike the Lord of the Immortals.
However, I don't have the raw power of a Celestial Lord.
If I possess the power of the Heavenly Father, like the previous two Celestial Kings, I too can wear magnificent robes and sit upon the throne.
But I didn't. Even if it was just one step away, it was an extremely important step.
If you can reach the level of the Heavenly Father, then my Kunlun Immortal Clan can truly stand tall!
"In the end, it's strength that matters in this world," the Third Jade Emperor said in a deep voice.
