Chapter 2507

The endless starry sky fell silent.

From blooming flowers to fiery oil, the dazzling false golden age reached its peak—peak immortal Dao civilization collapsed in an instant, countless worlds plunged into barren desolation.

Looking down from the high heavens at each great and minor thousand-world.

The entire world had not a trace of green, the earth cracked everywhere, rivers dried up, many places turned into deserts, oceans revealed dry seabeds.

The world was utterly still, even wind sounds were extremely rare, the four seasons no longer distinct.

The four seasons, part of heaven and earth's flowing rules, but now the source of heaven and earth is lost, even the four seasons no longer exist—each world in the endless starry sky is a lifeless desert.

They're all dead!

All life is dead!

All life has been devoured by the blood basins of the historical emperors—plants, animals, cultivators, spirit beasts—everything swallowed whole, nothing left.

In this heaven and earth, amidst the scarred Purple Wei Star Domain, only one life remains.

A single black demon tree piercing heaven and earth stands alone in the starry void, looking in all directions with no living companion, only it remains.

Blood-Flesh Demon Extreme Emperor.

The historical emperors departed, did not devour him, kept their promise, and even allocated him resources for a nine-character immortal scripture experiment as agreed.

The forbidden zone emperors were especially tolerant and magnanimous toward emperors.

"Success or failure, in this one move!"

The Blood-Flesh Demon Extreme Emperor let out a low roar.

During these sixty million years, as the busiest emperor of the present age, he carried out the Dao of the forbidden zone emperors, rebuilt immortal Dao miracles one after another—undoubtedly a great fortune, allowing him to iterate his immortal scripture to the ten-character level, achieving the strongest beneath the forbidden zone emperors.

Boom—

The endless starry sky surged with wind and cloud, the three thousand great Dao rolled forth mightily.

Countless rules manifested—life Dao, fate Dao, earth Dao, and others closely tied to his blood Dao blossomed in sequence, rules illuminated, undergoing endless changes, the mysteries of the Dao contained within, the source of the universe flickering therein.

For a spirit with the talent of a forbidden zone emperor, this is the path to the supreme.

How long passed is unknown.

Crack!

Innumerable star arrays shattered, heaven collapsed and earth split, the blood-flesh demon tree rooted between stars trembled, countless thick branches snapped, earth and star seas overturned, innumerable mountain-like roots were uprooted, how many broke unknown, this heaven-piercing, earth-penetrating bloodthirsty demon tree nearly snapped and collapsed.

Defeated.

He failed, did not achieve the forbidden zone.

Despite possessing such heaven-shaking fortune, attaining Dao in the false golden age, gaining the chance to observe the emperors' paths, accumulating profound foundations, he still could not take this step.

This step of the forbidden zone is the current limit of the endless starry sky, the supreme beings!

In history, no forbidden zone emperor has ever died outside of time, hailed as invincible beings beyond the golden age, with extraordinarily strict demands on talent—without such talent, even sitting on countless fortunes is useless.

This blood-flesh demon tree is extremely weak, unwillingly gazing at the endless starry sky Dao.

"Golden Age!"

"Golden Age————"

The Blood-Flesh Demon Extreme Emperor screamed, countless branches danced wildly.

From this heaven and earth he saw his own limit, an insurmountable barrier.

The chance to attain Dao lies in the Golden Age, must be in the Golden Age, and only in the Golden Age can he become a forbidden zone emperor, weave a root network to bury many forbidden zone emperors, pave a glorious path to immortality, just as the forty-five true immortals once slaughtered each other in chaotic battle.

In the past, he was not the strongest, his talent not the best, yet he successively slew the Kaiyang Immortal Maiden, the Yueyin True Immortal Maiden, and others, laughing last!

The Golden Age, then, was likewise.

With such unwillingness, such desire, the present emperor's figure gradually faded, vanished into the endless starry sky, returned to his slumbering world, slept in the long river of ancient time.

Heaven and earth trembled, at that time the emperor's crown shattered, causing chaos in the endless starry sky, then gradually calmed, all returned to the ordinary.

With the last life departing, the entire endless starry sky fell into utter silence.

Heaven and earth turn, time flashes.

In the passing moments, ten million years have elapsed.

Without the emperors' cruel plunder, countless worlds in the endless starry sky are recovering; within worlds, faint greenery has begun to appear, winds stir between heaven and earth—though slight, this means the four-season rules have begun to restore, the world again flows and cycles.

Once the world begins to flow and cycle, life and spiritual energy will follow.

This means countless worlds in the endless starry sky have become suitable for life's habitation—only ten million years, making one lament the tenacity of heaven and earth.

At this moment, as the signal of heaven and earth's recovery spreads, countless ancient emperor secret realms dormant in the starry void begin to tremble.

Immortal Sect·Nine Ling Domain.

In the darkness, a void gate opened on the mother star; citizens of the Immortal Sect wearing spaceship attire and magical implements cautiously stepped out, their feet once again touching the mother star's thick earth.

"Mother star————"

Many Immortal Sect citizens' eyes reddened, they could not help but shed tears.

They are naturally the citizens who retreated to the Immortal Sect emperor secret realm in the past, having reproduced there for seventy million years, so long that history is nearly forgotten—if not for the secret realm's formation spirits constantly reminding and teaching, they would almost have forgotten the name Immortal Sect.

Likewise in the past, a group of citizens urgently retreated to the spiritless universe and survived.

But without spiritual energy, they could not transmit the Immortal Sect's immortal Dao technological civilization, long since assimilated by the spiritless universe's Immortal Sect, unable to complete historical transmission.

"Vacuum————"

"Wind sand, storms————"

"Solar radiation Dao poison, soul-absorbing wind, soul-devouring evil————"

In the Immortal Sect citizenry, a citizen holding a magical treasure silently watched lines of text scroll across the instrument—this world has just begun to recover life, extremely unsuitable for habitation; to survive in such a perilous environment at least requires a Nascent Soul cultivator, otherwise it is certain death.

The mother star has still not recovered to the degree of sustaining civilization.

Throughout heaven and earth and the starry sky, remnants of the emperors' power linger, especially the forbidden zone emperors'—today's sunlight still retains the might of the Sun Emperor's immortal technique; prolonged exposure causes life to Daoize, turning into pure spiritual matter that flies to the nine heavens.

The wind retains the might of the Undying Emperor's immortal technique; when the wind blows, life's soul and spirit scatter.

The residual aura of the Nine-Leaf Sword Emperor lingers in the plants; an ordinary-looking shrub can instantly transform into a life-devouring fiend, and no animal or plant capable of surviving in such a harsh environment is harmless—all are extremely dangerous, with even Nascent Soul cultivators merely meeting the basic survival threshold, unable to act recklessly.
