"The Ancient Heavenly Reincarnation Emperor's successor has appeared!"
An old woman with snake eyes spoke in a cold voice that could make the scalps of her listeners tingle.
In his hand, he held a rune that shone with divine brilliance.
“That's why I called everyone here.”
Another tall old man with a pair of goat-like horns on his head said in an Immortal-like tone.
However, his voice had a cold tone.
The other old man nodded and said with a cold expression, “It looks like the prophecy is true! He is here to retrieve the reincarnated remains of His Heavenly Majesty. I never expected it would take long! I always thought that the slave seal was just an ancient rumor because no one could prove or deny its existence.”
“I never thought it would really materialize now! It's unbelievable.”
Speaking of which, an old man with an eagle beak said with a grim expression as he felt an absolute suppression from the bottom of his soul.
The runes on his arm were burning, as if stamped on it, and no matter what he tried, he could not remove them.
It had not materialized in thousands of years, and it made them feel that the existence of the slave seal was just a rumor they did not need to notice.
They all had the same confidence to this day, they were shocked because this was the first time they had sensed the existence of runes.
The absolute power of oppression that befell their souls could easily dictate their life and death.
It was the effect of the slave seal, which could be used to suppress everything!
The slave seals were planted deep within their bloodlines and passed down from generation to generation until they reached them.
After knowing the truth of the matter, they were shocked, furious, and full of disbelief!
The only thing they wanted to do now was to .. massacre the Successor of the Ancient Heavenly Reincarnation Emperor.
[TL/N: The Ancient Heavenly Reincarnation Emperor, His Heavenly Reincarnation Majesty, and His Heavenly Majesty are all titles for the same person in the context of the chapter currently translated. His Heavenly Majesty is a common word used for an Ancient Heavenly Emperor.]
How powerful were their ancestors?
Even the Tribe with the True Dragon bloodline that now controlled the Ancient Eternal Continent had to be polite before their ancestors, however…
Who would have thought that their ancestors would be oppressed by the Ancient Heavenly Reincarnation Emperor and the slave seals implanted in their blood and souls?! All of that was just to preserve the opportunity that Heavenly Majesty left behind for his successors from generation to generation!
Now that his Heavenly Majesty's Reincarnation Successor appeared and approached them, they couldn't help but be vigilant for the first time in eternity.
After all, no one was willing to give up on a stranger they had never met before, and dedicate everything to him.
Who wants something like that?
Retard, maybe.
It was for this reason that they all gathered in haste to discuss the matter. No matter what method they had to use, they had to make sure that His Heavenly Reincarnation Successor died as soon as possible.
“The Enlightenment Platform of His Majesty Heavenly Reincarnation is controlled unanimously by our great family now! Thousands of years had passed, so who would be willing to let go? There was even a saying that His Heavenly Reincarnation Majesty might have left a nearby Cultivation Ground, hiding the treasures and inheritances of countless Venerable Majesties ... "
"Perhaps, that Successor is the key to that Cultivation Place!"
The faces of the old men brightened as they discussed the Cultivation Residence and planned to take the opportunities that were within.
The reincarnated relics of His Heavenly Majesty should belong to them, they believed.
What the heck is the Successor that appeared out of nowhere now? How dare he covet their treasure?
“The reincarnated Successor of His Heavenly Majesty must have come from the outside world, so he shouldn't be that old right now. According to our agreement with the old monster outside, the strongest one who can enter from outside will, at most, be in the False God Realm. ”
“That means, His Heavenly Majesty's Reincarnation Successor will not be outside of the False God Realm. As long as he dared to come here, he would definitely be buried here. ”
The parents planned with a grin on their faces and imagined a happy ending.
True, it might not be possible for them to personally take action and slaughter 'bastards' because of their slave seals, but that did not mean they could not send others to deal with him.
Once the time came, they would form a Confinement Formation and then wait for the so-called Heavenly Majesty Successor to walk towards his death!
After all, they had been affiliated with countless other races of the Ancient Immortal Continent, so it would not be difficult for them to find someone in the True God Realm, or even the God King Realm, to capture their target.
“Supervise all unfamiliar faces, especially those coming from the outside world! I'd rather kill the wrong person than let the right one get away.”
The old freaks began to give orders to their subordinates and placed the entire city of ruins under martial law.
Only by killing His Heavenly Majesty's Successor would they have a chance to be free.
[explosion!]
Immediately, Spiritual Qi surged in the sky and the atmosphere turned terrifying as everything spread out in all directions.
Awe-inspiring auras appeared high in the sky one after another, and began to examine all the suspicious figures in their region and surroundings.
At the same time, a large group of natives united near the ruins and formed a Confinement Formation under the command of their Elders to trap someone.
……
'What's going on? Did they find us?'
Ye Ling, who had secretly slipped into the ruins with Chi Ling and Yin Mei, showed a drastic change in her expression.
He sensed some powerful auras flashed above them as their overwhelming Spiritual Sense swept out in all directions with the intention of collapsing everything onto the ground.
Their sudden movements surprised him.
If he wasn't brave enough, and had never experienced many disasters before, he wouldn't be able to remain calm now.
Right now, Ye Ling would retreat if she did not have enough guts.
“Why are there suddenly so many powerhouses? What are they looking for?"
Chi Ling asked with a frown.
The figures that passed through them were at least in the True God Realm, so if they did not use special means now, they would all die tragically.
"I don't know! Maybe because of me? Is our existence revealed? But we hid ourselves so well that it was impossible for anyone to find us! Could this be all a coincidence.”.
Ye Ling asked with a puzzled expression.
For a moment, he forgot his identity as the Successor of the Ancient Heavenly Reincarnation Emperor.
It was the old turtle inside his pendant who showed a cold and attentive expression as he realized something.
“It looks like they will catch someone..”.
Yin Mei suddenly said with a worried expression.
Ye Ling also started to worry after seeing his expression, and could not help but turn her face towards him while smiling and saying, “We may be thinking too much, Yin Mei! It might just be a coincidence, and it might have nothing to do with us.”
Yin Mei shook her head and did not say anything, but the worry on her face did not diminish.
Of course, he was not worried about Ye Ling — he did not care about what he said.
The sudden appearance of so many powerhouses, including those in the True God Realm and the surroundings, made him think about Gu Changge when he saw that they were looking for someone!
After all, he knew very well what Gu Changge was doing right now! It was highly likely that he had slipped into the depths of the ruins long before them.
So...could Gu Changge's actions be revealed? He wonders.
Are the natives angry at Gu Changge's actions and looking for him now?
Yin Mei could not help but worry about him.
By the way, if Gu Changge died here, then his restraint would probably disappear, and it would be a pleasure for him, but for some reason, he couldn't help but worry about Gu Changge.
Specially? Gu Changge had instructed him to provoke the relationship between Ye Ling and Chi Ling in secret. After Ye Ling slipped into the ruins, she should have waited for the critical moment, and then 'accidentally' attracted the attention of the powerhouse hidden in the ruins to catch them.
Such an order would be tantamount to telling him to go kill himself! If he was not careful, then there would be a great possibility for him to lose his life.
After all, once he pulled the powerhouse and exposed their tracks, he would also fall into a dangerous situation, but since Gu Changge ordered him to do so, he had no choice but to follow through.
He was an indifferent and heartless man, so why couldn't he stop worrying about him?
'Ye Boi, listen carefully! Those people must have come for you…'
Just then, the turtle in Ye Ling's pendant spoke up and made Ye Ling freeze in place.
They come for him?
What does that mean?
Ye Ling's head was buzzing and she felt dizzy for a moment.
'Heavenly Majesty left many good things for you, but he also left the test for you! There are guards guarding the remains left behind by His Heavenly Majesty, so if you don't pass the test, you won't just get bullshit, either, but there's also a chance you'll end up six feet underground here.'
The old turtle explained.
Ye Ling's head nearly exploded as she listened to his explanation, and she couldn't help but curse him, 'Why didn't you tell me about it before? Didn't you try to kill me by telling me about it just now? What is wrong with His Heavenly Majesty? Couldn't he leave that opportunity somewhere where I didn't need to go through the hardships to get it? Didn't you just send me to the path of hell?!'
Of course, you are, he only complained with words because he was shameless to the point where he would forget the fact that he had taken the inheritance of Heavenly Majesty and received many opportunities because of him.
Right now, he was like a man riding a tiger, and had no choice but to keep walking.
Yin Mei noticed the changes to Ye Ling's skin, and felt relaxed in her heart.
'It looks like those people came for him ...'
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, the three of them continued forward. Compared to before, they were more cautious and hid all their traces while avoiding the figure in the sky.
Ye Ling knew that the Enlightenment Platform left for her by the Ancient Heavenly Reincarnation Emperor was made from Reincarnation Stone, which was an extremely magical material.
The Reincarnation Stone contained the Laws of the Time Realm and Reincarnation, and it was a known fact that the Power of Time was the strongest attribute ever.
'Now, your only chance to conquer the Enlightenment Platform is to find His Majesty's Cultivation Residence containing his legacy ...'
The old turtle in the pendant started teaching Ye Ling how he could find the Cultivation Residence and enter it.
Otherwise, with Ye Ling's current strength, he wouldn't be able to compete with the — Platform Guard Ye Ling would have to find a way to gain the approval of the Guard first.
This was his only chance to pass the examination.
What the old tortoise did not know was the fact that the so-called Guardians were a race subdued and enslaved by His Heavenly Reincarnation Majesty, and were unwilling to give up no matter what!
Ye Ling gritted her teeth after listening to his words, and an explosion of perseverance surged in her heart.
'I have to go there! How will I take revenge on Gu Changge if I can't?'
'He is the true Successor of the Taboo Inheritance!'
Endless strength and confidence surged in Ye Ling's heart as she recalled the face of her greatest enemy, Gu Changge.
[TL/N: Ye Ling is kind, ngl.]
……
Gu Changge hid himself in the Void after leaving the mausoleum, and decided not to appear.
Thanks to the corpses of the Heavenly Geniuses buried within, he was able to upgrade his Buddhist Base, and even obtain many rare talents.
He reached the Middle Stage of the God King Realm in one move!
Gu Changge felt that he could even compete with an actual Sacred Realm cultivator now. If he could sneak attack them, then it would not be difficult for him to slaughter them with a single move as well.
This was only Gu Changge's initial estimate of his abilities.
After all, the rulers of the Sacred Realm could destroy the stars just by raising their hands, and that was because they could control the Laws of Nature. The cultivators under the Sacred Realm would be thoroughly oppressed by the rulers of the Sacred Realm, without the ability to retaliate in any way.
Even the mighty Young Master in the God King Realm would not be able to compete with a true Saint Realm master.
The reason he was able to slaughter the Sacred Realm master was because he had gained control over the powers outside of his current territory before.
Right now, his real Cultivation Base placed him in the Early Stage of the False God Realm, which was something that the other younger generation could not achieve at this stage, and that was why Gu Changge did not intend to make any further breakthroughs.
If he were to reveal a Cultivation Base unimaginable for his age, then he would definitely attract the attention of the ancient old fogies hiding in their coffins.
They had lived through countless eras, so what kind of genius had they not seen yet?
Gu Changge reached the Early Stage of the False God Realm at his age, with his talent, was still quite acceptable, but anything beyond that ...
He did not want to put himself in the spotlight and bring unnecessary trouble into his path.
After all, he was different from the other young geniuses.
He followed the path of the 'Eternal Demon', so the Cultivation Base he obtained through the [Heavenly Immortal Dao Codex] was simply to confuse the public. Even if one were to investigate his Origin, they would not be able to find any anomaly with him since he did practice the orthodox [1] [Codex Heavenly Immortal Dao.]
[1: Cultivation novels usually have two paths: orthodox and unorthodox.
The orthodox path was the one followed by the majority where they obtained cultivation arts, sat in meditation, absorbed Spiritual Qi from the atmosphere around them, and enhanced their Realm.
The unorthodox path is the one followed by the minority who do not follow the sane route, and take the crazy route for quick profit. These were people who indiscriminately slaughtered people to increase their understanding of the Dao, purifying the fetus into pills, cannibalizing whatever they could, turning people into Human Cauldrons, etc.
Unorthodox cultivators were generally considered the trash of society and favored by the rest of the world, and were slaughtered wherever they were found.]
[Immortal-Devouring Demonic Art] was his true foundation, but who beside him knew about it and its true strength?
His enemies?
All his enemies who had witnessed his true strength were already in the underworld.
'By the way, I won't have any trouble finding Ye Ling through the trail left behind by Yin Mei, but it seems like something is troubling the entire ruins of — could it be that the trail of Ye Ling was found?'
Gu Changge, who was walking through the Void, could not help but frown.
At the same time, he felt that he might have overestimated Ye Ling's abilities.
Why was the trash found so quickly?
If he were to die here, how would he continue to blame his head?
'No, these creatures seem to be searching aimlessly, and don't seem to know what they're looking for.'
But soon, Gu Changge saw something different and narrowed his eyes.
Speaking of which, only a few knew about the fact that Ye Ling was the Successor of the Ancient Heavenly Reincarnation Emperor.
There was no one else but him and Yue Mingkong, was there?
Even if Ye Ling was kicked in the head by a donkey, she would not be foolish enough to reveal such a secret to anyone.
'This destruction definitely had something that the Heavenly Reincarnation Emperor had left behind for Ye Ling, but according to the usual routine, there must have been a test or something prepared for his successor...is this a test for Ye Ling?'
Gu Changge quickly thought of this possibility, and tried to guess if he was right.
[Humbling!]
Void rumbled and spatial ripples spread out in all directions. At the same time, Gu Changge saw a being in the Heavenly God Realm looking for something nearby.
The creature stepped into the Void and walked swiftly.
Sweetheart! Even a Sacred Realm master would not be able to sense the presence of Gu Changge, let alone the weak in the Heavenly God Realm, so Gu Changge could not help but tut-tut in his heart.
Sure enough, Void Talent is indeed tyrannical. No wonder it was said that the Ancient Slaughter Emperor with Void Talent had almost managed to kill a True Immortal.
For those with Void Talent, traveling through the Void was as easy as a fish swimming in the water, or a tiger in the forest.
Of course.this was the most basic use of the Void Talent.
"Who…"
Suddenly, the tall creature that was searching through the stone carvings in the mountains and forests felt a chill descend onto its back, and felt its soul freeze; it could tell that someone was staring at it, and that fact scared him.
It would twist its head, but find the spatial ripples coming from the Void in front of it. Immediately after, he saw a white-clothed man come out of the Void with a relaxed expression.
“Sst! Don't make a sound, or you'll die.”
Gu Changge said with a smile.
In the next moment, a crack appeared in the space in front of him, and began to expand.
"You…"
The tall creature was stunned for a moment and then terrifying runes began to form in its eyes.
Sweetheart! In the next moment, it was instantly engulfed by the expanding crack with no time to react, and disappeared with an expression of shock and fear.
Gu Changge also turned around and disappeared into the Void.
Everything resembled an illusion, and no one noticed the sudden disappearance of a master of the Heavenly God Realm from the — world as if evaporating into thin air.
Those Heavenly God Realm creatures were like stones thrown into the sea, which became silent without much ripples.
“Where is this? You who?"
[Humbling!]
[On a mountain in a different world.]
The tall creature was thrown to the ground in front of Gu Changge. It looked at Gu Changge in horror and continued to shout as if it had discovered the most terrifying existence it could encounter.
It was a Heavenly God who could look down on True God ants and even slaughter an entire city by flipping his hand, but in front of the person in front of him, he did not even have the ability to respond. A moment ago, it was outside, and in the next moment, it appeared in a completely different dimension.
This scared him.
What kind of terrifying ability is this? Even those in the Sacred Realm might not be able to do something like this!
It was impossible to do something like this with just the power of Heaven and Earth, so he wondered if the other party controlled the Spatial Domain?
It felt shivering down to his spine upon reaching that conclusion.
The young man in front of him, who was clearly from the outside world, was terrified!
Gu Changge was worried that the creature would produce too many sounds and attract other creatures, so he brought it to his Inner World. After his strength increased, the ability of the Inner World to accommodate existences and other things also increased.
Holding a Heavenly God within it was not a problem for the Inner World.
"I want to know a few things."
Gu Changge said.
"What's? I'll let you know if I know the answer.”
The tall creature hurriedly complied with fear.
Here, he could not feel the aura of others, and felt like an ant under the gaze of Heaven, humble and insignificant.
“No! I'm used to finding information myself.”
Gu Changge said that and then directly chose to search through his soul.
A pitch-black light appeared on his palm, and split into thousands of fine black threads before covering the creature's forehead.
'It turned out to be an order from the Family Elder! I never thought I would find such an interesting secret.'
'Sheel of slaves, Your Majesty's Heavenly Reincarnation Cultivation Place.the treasure hunter rats did not disappoint me.'
After a while, Gu Changge ended the suffering of the creature with a strange smile on his face.
