Chapter 2558

The starry sky was in turmoil, boiling as if heaven and earth had been overturned.

Sun, moon, stars, the end of the Dharma, life—three thousand great Dao appeared alternately, shining upon each other, various phenomena arising and fading, even the gates of chaos above the nine heavens flung open, celestial essence raining down from the sky, scattered and dazzling, each drop of celestial essence falling to the earth forming a celestial holy land, benefiting all beings.

Above the nine heavens, faint and fleeting images appeared—like a ruined palace, like a collapsed abyss, and like the various legends of the highest heavenly court—

All these phenomena, unprecedented, never before seen.

This golden age of enlightenment far surpassed any era's phenomena, far exceeded, everything causing people to involuntarily become immersed.

Within that gate, is it the scenery of the immortal realm?

Why is it so shattered?

The emperors focused their minds, held their breath, silently watching this scene—the golden age giving birth to the Forbidden Zone Emperor, all historical emperors about to break free from their cages, once again descend to the mortal realm, truly reaching the golden age they had longed for countless years, here seeking the Dao, stepping onto the path to immortality.

The Great Sun Forbidden Zone.

"It's him————"

"That person's child."

Jiang Ding gazed long at the familiar figure within the tribulation of becoming emperor, finally showing a hint of realization—all cause and effect linked together.

Within the thunder, a handsome and valiant man held a Fang Tian Hua Ji, the blade's sweep tearing the heavens, breaking the endless sea of clouds, the tribulation of becoming emperor before him as insubstantial as paper, the imperial crown in the sky already condensed and formed, landing on his head, crowning him.

The immensely heavy crown, whose terrifying weight had crushed countless generations of invincible beings in the starry sky, was as light as a feather on his head, as if it should be so, with no excess weight whatsoever.

This is a human being, very clearly.

The human heavenly Dao is favoring him, favoring this ultimate victor, the human heavenly Dao being an extremely practical heavenly Dao.

Moreover, this human is too beautiful, this beauty carrying an otherworldly taste, absolutely not a trait the original human race should possess, the original blood humans do not look like this—this yin, otherworldly, splendid taste is more like, more like—

Phoenix.

The True Phoenix Immortal Clan, and moreover, the pure-blooded True Phoenix Immortal Clan, the most noble of its kind.

As this thought arose, threads of cause and effect exploded and appeared in sequence, following the cause and effect granted by the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang in the past, manifesting before the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's face.

"Interesting."

"Interesting—you died, yet your angel investment still draws the old, continuing, falling upon your child, truly a man of faith, fellow Daoist."

Jiang Ding Zi spoke to himself.

He gently plucked the threads of cause and effect, from that youth who long ago intruded into the Great Sun Forbidden Zone, consumed a piece of the Tai Shang Da Ri Immortal Elixir of Deathlessness, and departed—this youth named Ye Xian, who had some civilian blood on him, his talent and aptitude counted as top-tier, thus earning his investment.

However, in the end, Ye Xian still failed, unable to become the Forbidden Zone Emperor of the present age.

Angel investment has always been thus—high risk, high return, loss being commonplace.

The Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang is also not one who cannot afford to lose; after suffering a loss, he did not think of taking vengeance on his kin, and thereafter paid no further attention to this matter.

Yet he did not expect that the heavenly Dao and cause and effect of the golden age would be so complex, that he had not anticipated today's scene.

The threads of cause and effect were plucked, spanning vast stretches of time, revealing one scene after another—within them, all kinds of love and hatred, entanglements, had already passed, only a few scenes unfolding before the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang.

The first scene: a human youth named Ye Xian being hunted and killed by the True Phoenix Immortal Maiden.

The second scene: Ye Xian slew the dragon immortal maiden who was the fated Dao partner of the True Phoenix Immortal Maiden, while the True Phoenix Immortal Maiden merely watched coldly, taking no action.

The third scene: Ye Xian and the True Phoenix Immortal Maiden both gravely wounded and dying, pursued to the ends of the earth, about to perish.

Before death, both burned their own Dao essence, transforming it into a final blessing that flowed into a golden egg, sealing this golden egg.

Within it, Ye Xian's essence contained a large quantity of undigested source of the Tai Shang Da Ri Immortal Elixir of Deathlessness.

This is the final cause and effect.

This golden egg, bearing the blood of humans and the Phoenix clan, should not have been born—humans and the Phoenix clan have clear reproductive isolation, theoretically making offspring impossible.

Yet it was born.

This golden egg is none other than the later Forbidden Zone Emperor of the Golden Age, Ye Huang!

"Forbidden Zone Emperor of the Present Age,"

"Indeed extraordinary."

Jiang Ding gazed upon the towering figure in the nine heavens, speaking to himself.

The talent of this Forbidden Zone Emperor of the Present Age needs no doubt—rising in the golden age, he cut down all heavenly pride, forging a path entirely his own.

This path is named Chaos.

Embracing a hundred rivers, devouring myriad Dao, then returning to one, the Chaos Dao encompasses all, devours all, myriad laws do not add to the body yet the body possesses all laws under heaven, a path of extreme moderation, yet in certain hands extraordinarily powerful, a single Chaos Heavenly Wilderness Ji suppressing an entire age.

His talent, even in the most barren cosmic age, could achieve Forbidden Zone Emperor, without any doubt, capable of partially reversing cosmic cycles, creating the great trend of heaven and earth.

He walks the Chaos Dao, bearing a striking resemblance to his forefather's Hundred Forged Dao Body, also counting as inheritance.

Within the nine heavens, as the Present Emperor's Crown slowly descended, landing on the head of the black-haired, fluttering handsome youth, the three thousand Dao returned to one, infinite power added to his body, the various phenomena in the sky gradually calming, the tumultuous river of ancient time returning to order, the river of time flowing within its designated channel, no longer overflowing at the slightest provocation.

Heaven and earth became orderly once more.

The emperors' shackles all vanished for a time, freedom restored once again.

Yet for a moment, no emperor dared to take the lead, the boundless starry sky remained still, still to an eerie degree, without a single ripple.

Everything, everything, was merely because of that figure in the nine heavens.

Terror to the extreme surged from within the nine heavens, suppressing heaven, earth, and the star rivers, suppressing every corner of the starry sky—the Forbidden Zone Emperor of the Present Age, beloved by the heavenly Dao, possessing supreme authority, his might extraordinarily fearsome.

That alone would suffice.

But even more terrifying is that such a terrifying existence is necessarily undying in its first life!

Such a powerful forbidden zone being, beloved by the present heavenly Dao, endowed with infinite power, and furthermore destined to be undying—who could not feel immense dread, who could dare to face it alone and not be defeated?

It can be said, there is none!

No one at all!

This Forbidden Zone Emperor of the Present Age is truly the number one person under heaven, the strongest in the boundless starry sky, an invincible under heaven without any prefix!

Just one person, and he presses the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang and the historical emperors into silence, daring not to speak.
