Chapter 2528: Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang Departs

The Great Sun Forbidden Zone.

Half-asleep, half-awake, the forbidden zone was undergoing a slow descent into slumber, its lifespan's passage greatly slowed, a process that would gradually continue for two million years until complete dormancy.

"The Dao!"

"There is hope—"

In the twilight's glow, a youth in blue robes whispered.

A spirited, upward surge, like the innocence of a youth, reappeared upon him once more—this was the form of dreams and ideals, tangible and visible, no longer illusory.

Over these sixty million years, the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang had done many things.

He had spent a full five million years of his lifespan deducing the Dao, exploring internal and external integration of the Tai Shang Da Ri Dao lineage with the broader immortal Dao system, sparing no cost in any aspect, allowing himself to pay a great price to reserve lifespan for consumption in the Golden Great Age.

Integrating the wisdom of the world's outstanding talents over sixty million years, the ancient emperors would occasionally awaken to serve as beasts of burden, pouring heart and blood for many years, until finally achieving some results.

"The《Annihilation of Laws Solar Immortal Scripture》—"

Jiang Ding gazed upon the primordial ancient scroll within his soul, silent and deep.

This primordial ancient scroll remained in the form of nine characters, unchanged and unevolved, yet many changes were clearly discerned—additional structures, some interfaces—these changes enabling connection with the《Three Thousand Weak Waters Immortal Scripture》, 《Tai Shang Da Ri Attendant Immortal Scripture》, 《Fate Calculation and Immortal Dao Science Scripture》, and others, without conflict, barely achieving a one-plus-one-equals-two effect.

In the sixtieth million year, the Wu Jin Kong Kong began to manifest.

The Weak Water Immortal Dao system, the Black Blood Dragon Emperor Immortal Dao system, the Lunar Yin Immortal Dao system, and others merged with the Tai Shang Da Ri Immortal Dao system, without major conflict, thereby significantly elevating the immortal Dao productivity of this era!

Know that whoever bears the title of Emperor must have achieved extraordinary distinction in some aspect or along some great Dao direction; the forbidden zone ancient emperors, in this specific aspect, cannot compare.

For example, in the case of Weak Water, a specific heaven-earth spiritual substance, the Weak Water Ancient Emperor possesses supreme mastery, while the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang can only look up to him in this regard.

The Tai Shang Da Ri Sword Dao can simulate the effect of Weak Water, but only through brute force, and professionally falls short.

The Weak Water Immortal Dao system can exist within the Tai Shang Da Ri Immortal Dao system without conflict, meaning the upper limit of the Tai Shang Da Ri Immortal Dao system in this aspect has been raised, usable raw materials have increased, and the synthetic pathways available in the immortal Dao industry supply chain have expanded.

This is the enhancement of immortal Dao productivity!

For some forbidden zone ancient emperors, the enhancement of immortal Dao productivity is merely more heavenly materials and earthly treasures, some wealth—but for the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang, it is not the same.

Completely different!

The Solar Ancient Emperor once said, the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's talent and ability are mediocre.

This is not intentional belittlement; this human sage emperor is an elder, of extremely ancient existence, having seen many forbidden zone ancient emperors, interacted with them, and this statement is an objective fact.

Yet, among forbidden zone ancient emperors, how could there be any truly mediocre ones?

Moreover, do not say—the so-called mediocre talent of the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang can just as easily thrash any ten-character ancient emperor, leaving them despairing, unable to look up to his back.

This is precisely the direction in which the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang excels!

Among forbidden zone ancient emperors, the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang excels in slaughter, in education, and in nurturing the immortal Dao industry!

This is his Dao!

If the upper limit of the Tai Shang Da Ri Immortal Dao Industry system is raised, immortal Dao productivity significantly enhanced, and the numbers of immortal Dao industry R&D talents and production talents in the system are greatly increased—

Then the Dao of the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang will likewise be significantly enhanced!

This is what makes people fearful.

No forbidden zone ancient emperor is easy to deal with; once he finds the path suited to his own Dao, once he clarifies his own path to immortality, countless heavenly prodigies and countless heroic lords of Shen Zhou will fall into fear and despair.

Now, the budding of the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's path is growing.

"Golden Great Age!"

"The paths of the emperors! This sovereign can no longer wait—"

Jiang Ding spoke in a low voice.

Time flowed like water, and the Great Sun Forbidden Zone gradually sank into complete silence, once again vanishing entirely into the Wu Jin Kong Kong, disappearing from observation in the long river of ten thousand ages.

At this moment, the Wu Jin Kong Kong suddenly relaxed, some intangible pressure vanished.

The old monster that had long suppressed the entire era finally ceased to gaze upon the present world, departed this era, and simultaneously, this marked the end of the second six-million-year reign of the present age's great emperor, with at most ten thousand years of lifespan remaining before its conclusion.

Beneath the Wu Jin Kong Kong, in the Ziwei Star Domain, only one existence remained.

—

The Devouring Ancient Emperor!

This extremely minute being, who ought to have suppressed an era, finally, after the departure of the forbidden zone ancient emperors, blossomed with his own radiance.

"Old thing—"

"This emperor will forever remember today."

The Devouring Emperor spoke calmly.

Hum!

The End of the Dharma Dao slowly descended upon Shen Zhou, bringing terrifying pressure, plunging the entire Wu Jin Kong Kong into chaos and turmoil, causing the immortal Dao to collapse and fall.

Golden rays burst forth behind him, thread by thread, like light beams, like swimming snakes, spreading across countless worlds.

These golden beams were each a powerful member of the Golden Consuming Dao Ant clan, each commanding a vast army, with each powerful Golden Consuming Dao Ant kneeling before the emperor.

"Emperor!"

"Issue your command!"

The voices of the powerful rang out resonant and forceful, like two pieces of immortal gold colliding, piercing clouds and splitting the sky.

"Go,"

"Slay all, the human race of the Wu Jin Kong Kong!"

"Slay these ants, let the entire Wu Jin Kong Kong run red with blood, let the blood seas surge and churn!"

The Devouring Ancient Emperor roared.

Terrifying killing intent and fury, accumulated for a full sixty million years, thickened and settled time and again, until now forming a near-abyssal black resentment.

In truth, from the standpoint of reason and benefit, it ought not to be so.

The Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang left behind a complete remnant of the immortal Dao industry system; though many immortal Dao industry talents had already been poached, the foundation and the vast majority of mid-to-low level immortal Dao talents remained, and with slight cultivation, they might not fail to erupt in great immortal Dao productivity for the use of the Golden Consuming Dao Ant clan.

This is a hidden safeguard left behind by Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang.

However, the Devouring Ancient Emperor does not care about these at this moment.

He only wants the human race of Wu Jin Kong Kong to die, he only wants the citizens of the immortal sects to die! All of them! Kill until blood flows like rivers, clean and thorough, he wants the human race of Wu Jin Kong Kong to be exterminated in this era!

"Yes!"

"Emperor! As you wish!"

Countless Golden Dao-Eating Ant clan beings roared forth.

This heaven and earth suddenly blazed like a fierce sun, one beam after another spreading toward Wu Jin Kong Kong, passing through the super transmission array and landing in one star field after another, one world after another, bringing hell and death to the human beings in those worlds.
