In the era when his original body lived, there were also countless peerless geniuses whose talents were no less than Ye Fan and others.
It’s just that Emperor Huang Tian is too extraordinary, almost invincible, and overshadows the brilliance of others.
He understood that if it were any other era, these people would inevitably become the protagonists of the era, and even reach the pinnacle.
However, in that era, because of the great changes in heaven and earth that changed the world's pattern, the dark turmoil swallowed up everything and buried countless peerless geniuses.
“The former ten-time champion? As expected, we have arrived at the ancient underworld, and this is also the black prison of the ancient underworld!” Yang An said.
According to what he knew, the strange creatures in the ancient underworld once imprisoned the greatest geniuses of countless eras.
The strange creatures did this because they wanted to subdue these geniuses and use them for their own purposes.
Even Cao Yusheng, who is Duan De's original form, is lurking in the underworld. In addition to looking for the Jade Rabbit, his biggest goal is to save these geniuses.
At this moment, the two men looked ahead. There was an endless and deep area in the distance. The pitch-black prison was integrated with the earth, and the prison door stained with black blood had already been opened.
Countless creatures had disheveled hair, hunched bodies, and staggered as they walked with blood-stained shackles.
These creatures were once unrivaled geniuses of different eras, but now they are trapped in the black prison.
Through the open black blood prison door, you can see the deepest part of this black prison, just like the reappearance of the ninety-nine levels of hell in mythology, and many other figures can be vaguely seen.
The time of existence of these strange creatures cannot be traced back. They have been entrenched in the ancient underworld for a long time, and no one knows how many epochs have passed.
In every era, a group of peerless geniuses will appear in the heavens and all worlds, and many of them are imprisoned in the ancient underworld.
Judging from the scale of the Black Prison, countless peerless geniuses have been imprisoned here over the countless years, spending endless years in misery like the walking dead.
The cage made of black blood and dark matter was dead silent. There was no sound and no sign of any living creature.
These once peerless geniuses were imprisoned in cages, waiting for death in loneliness.
Over the long years, the heavens have decayed, the world has decayed and collapsed, all life is gradually dying out and heading towards its end.
These imprisoned geniuses are also weakening, their vitality is gradually drying up, their hopeful eyes are beginning to dim, and their past glory has long been buried by the rolling river of time.
Under such circumstances, no matter which era the genius is from, they will eventually become lifeless and lose their former fighting spirit.
After all, no one in the world can resist the passage of time, let alone the years of loneliness.
Even those who were once peerless geniuses, faced with strange and terrifying torture, have already thrown themselves into the arms of strangeness.
Once they choose to turn to the weirdness, they will be eroded by the weirdness and eventually turn into weird creatures.
In fact, the strange creatures were not a huge race long years ago, but just a group of creatures parasitized by strange things.
As long as one is eroded by the weirdness, he will eventually become a weird creature. This is why the ancient underworld has spent countless years imprisoning so many geniuses.
After all, the weird clan also needs to keep developing and expanding their power. These geniuses from many eras are likely to give birth to the strongest ones, which is their best choice.
Seeing these once peerless geniuses reduced to zombies, Yang An's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
If conditions permit, he would naturally want to destroy the Black Prison immediately and rescue all the peerless geniuses.
If these geniuses are cultivated, their future achievements will certainly not be too low, and they will also become the sharp edge that pierces the weirdness.
But such an approach is totally unrealistic. The power of the ancient underworld is beyond imagination, and there are even powerful Immortal Emperor-level warriors sleeping there. With his current strength, it is naturally impossible for him to overthrow the underworld.
Moreover, their purpose of coming to the underworld this time was not for the Black Prison, but to find Duan De's real body.
Things must be prioritized and there is absolutely no room for unnecessary complications.
"It's so weird, I'm not mistaken, countless geniuses of our time are imprisoned here." Duan De said angrily.
Anyone who sees such a scene, seeing a genius of his generation being imprisoned like this, suffering in darkness and loneliness for many years, would be very angry.
Moreover, among these geniuses, several of them are his good friends.
“Don’t act rashly. Your original body has been dormant in the ancient underworld for many years. It is obvious that you are familiar with the situation here. Your original body must have its own plans.
Don't forget the purpose of our trip. We came here to find your real body!" Yang An reminded.
According to what he knew, after Duan De's real body had been dormant in the ancient underworld for many years, he would indeed overthrow the ancient underworld in one fell swoop in the future, so there was no need for them to do anything unnecessary.
After hearing Yang An's reminder, Duan De finally calmed down a bit. He began to try to communicate with his original body and wanted to establish a connection with it.
After stepping into the ancient underworld, he had felt that the connection had become very strong. According to his speculation, the original body must be in the ancient underworld and had sensed his arrival.
Under Duan De's guidance, the two returned to the Samsara Path. The empty Samsara Path was intermittent, consisting of one broken continent after another.
The two of them moved forward quickly, and the path of reincarnation began to undergo new changes, as some living creatures began to appear.
To be precise, they can no longer be called living beings, but only corpses or shriveled skeletons.
They seemed to be weathered, skinny, bony, and very close to death, with only a faint soul fire not extinguished deep in their skulls.
If they wanted, these skeletons, like the walking dead, would completely fall apart with just a little external force.
After walking for a while, the two came to a dilapidated building, and Duan De finally stopped.
He already had a clear feeling that his real body was hidden near this building.
"You're finally here. I thought it would take you some time to get here!"
A faint voice sounded, as if confiding the difficulties it had gone through over the years.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"What are you doing? You want to establish contact with me, so why are you reluctant to show up?" Duan De said.
“It’s not that I don’t want to, I just finally discovered some secrets and I can’t leave the ancient underworld easily.
Besides, it is inconvenient for me to show up in the ancient underworld, so we can only meet here!"
As this voice sounded, a figure who looked like a fat Taoist priest appeared, his body covered in dark blood. Between his torn clothes and armor, one could see his wounds that had not yet healed. He was obviously in a very miserable state.
"Quasi-Immortal Emperor? As expected, Duan De's original body has been practicing for countless years, and his strength can be considered extremely strong!" Yang An thought to himself.
The first moment he saw the fat Taoist priest, he already felt the Taoist priest's level of cultivation.
The embarrassed figure in front of him was Duan De's real body, and also Emperor Huang Tian's good brother, Cao Yusheng, who had survived from the ancient times of immortals to the present.
After countless years, Cao Yusheng finally cultivated to the realm of Quasi-Immortal Emperor. Such aptitude can only be regarded as average, and is not even as good as the Ten Crown Kings and others imprisoned in the Black Prison.
After all, as the brother of Emperor Huang Tian, Cao Yusheng had a strong man like Emperor Huang Tian to guide him, and he barely reached the realm of Quasi-Immortal Emperor, which was indeed somewhat disappointing.
However, this situation is ultimately compared to a peerless genius like Ye Fan. If it were an ordinary creature, the Quasi-Immortal Emperor would already be an unattainable destination.
After the strange and powerful men in the ancient underworld fell silent, Cao Yusheng was able to lie dormant here, probably because he had broken through to the quasi-immortal emperor.
Otherwise, the Immortal King’s cultivation would have long been lost in the ancient underworld.
"What did you discover? Did you find the little rabbit? And why do you keep in touch with me?" Duan De asked impatiently.
His journey was extremely difficult and he lived for countless years before he finally saw his true self.
He had too many doubts and too many misunderstandings, and he wanted to know the answers to them all.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Why are you still so impatient? This is the ancient underworld. Do you know how difficult it is to explore some secrets?" Cao Yusheng complained.
"Cao Yusheng, have you forgotten? You are me and I am you! The reason I am impatient is because you are impatient too!" Duan De continued.
"That's exactly what happened! But don't worry, after spending so much time, I not only successfully infiltrated the ancient underworld, but also found some clues.
I have always wanted to establish contact with you, mainly because I sensed that the strange power has revived again, and the great catastrophe of the heavens and the worlds is about to come."
As Duan De and his original body Cao Yusheng complained to each other, the situation about the ancient underworld was constantly being revealed.
According to Cao Yusheng, when Emperor Huang Tian attacked the ancient underworld, he not only dug out a section of the reincarnation path with his own hands, but also buried a large number of strange and powerful people.
Since then, the strength of the ancient underworld has plummeted, and the few strong men who survived by chance have also fallen into a deep sleep.
And he took advantage of this great opportunity to infiltrate the ancient underworld from then on.
His goal is the same as Emperor Huang Tian's. Emperor Huang Tian wants to use the ancient underworld to resurrect the people of the past, but ultimately fails.
He was also looking for a way, placing his hope in the ancient underworld, hoping to find the former Taiyin Jade Rabbit here.
During this period of time, while the strong men of the ancient underworld were in a deep sleep, he had dug out most of the ruins of the ancient underworld.
Finally, he did find some clues, but just when he thought he was about to succeed, he sensed that a strange power was beginning to revive.
Several powerful men who had fallen into deep sleep in the ancient underworld gradually showed signs of waking up. (End of this chapter)
