Chapter 2565

All the forbidden zone ancient emperors could not believe what they saw before their eyes for a moment.

The Devouring Ancient Emperor, the Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor, even if he attained the Dao in an era close to the Golden Great Age, was not as impoverished and difficult as in ancient times.

But the Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor is the Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor!

Such an existence, even if fighting against the current era's ancient emperors, could remain undefeated for dozens of moves—how could it possibly be slain in a single strike by another Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor?

This result caused all the Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperors to shudder in shock.

At this moment, the Devouring Ancient Emperor of the Golden Consuming Dao Ant clan was fluttering chaotically in the hand of the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang, like a bird in a cage, headlessly colliding everywhere; though not dead, it was more humiliating and terrifying than death—a Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor actually reduced to being captured, truly a fantasy.

"No!"

"Tai Shang Da Ri, you old thing!"

"Kill————"

The Devouring Ancient Emperor still roared, even burning his immortal soul and immortal body, transforming into a golden thread that shattered the Dao's barrier, drilling toward the fingers of the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang, hoping to pierce through and return to his own Golden Consuming Dao Ant clan army, yet it was like striking against the Five Finger Mountain—futile and ineffective.

In this tiny space of five fingers, at this moment it became a spatial rift of the degenerate age, space nearly infinite; no matter how far the Devouring Ancient Emperor flew within the palm, to outsiders it appeared as slow as a snail's crawl, struggling weakly and powerlessly, shocking to behold.

After struggling for a long time, the Devouring Ancient Emperor finally knew fear.

"Senior Tai Shang Da Ri!"

"Please forgive this junior's unintentional offense! You and I are fellow travelers on the Dao, we can mutually support each other and jointly ascend the path to immortality————"

The Devouring Ancient Emperor pleaded aloud, all his arrogance and ambition vanished.

This might be path dependence.

Back in that era, he survived through such pleas, later even advancing to Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor, becoming one of the strongest heroes of heaven and earth.

"Indeed, Fellow Daoist Devouring Ancient."

"We still have a chance to cooperate."

Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang spoke indifferently.

In his palm, layers of twilight light flickered faintly, distorting space and time, instantly sealing the Devouring Ancient Emperor who felt great unease, like an insect trapped in amber.

Immediately, Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang swept his sleeve, raising a fierce wind that sucked in the entire Golden Consuming Dao Ant clan, storing them within his sleeve, accompanying the Devouring Ancient Emperor.

After everything was done, heaven and earth fell into extraordinary silence, so quiet that a falling needle could be heard.

Death-like stillness.

Numerous Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperors stared fixedly at the blue-clad youth, maintaining the joint immortal formation, no one willing to break away alone, forming a vast and terrifying pressure that faintly opposed Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang.

This even included the Solar Ancient Emperor and other human forbidden zone ancient emperors.

Clearly, the current Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang is too terrifying, already sufficient to overwhelm any single Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor, faintly establishing himself as a hegemon.

"No!"

"Not to such an extent."

The Undying Ancient Emperor had been deducing something, and at this moment suddenly said: "The Eight Characters Immortal Scripture alone cannot confer such advantage; this Devouring Ancient was personally cultivated by him, follows the same Dao, and launched a sudden sneak attack, instantly piercing Devouring Ancient's Dao core, instantly causing defeat."

"If it were ordinary battle combat, it would not come to this!"

"Treat him as the current era's Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor."

The voice of the Undying Ancient Emperor was faint, spreading to all present Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperors—not just words, but a series of causal deductions, capable of reverse reasoning and verification, with various factual evidence as foundation.

This Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor indeed observed heaven and earth minutely, discerning part of the facts.

Among these, there must be his deep contemplation of the Eight Characters Immortal Scripture, penetrating to the marrow, allowing advancement to the Eight Characters Immortal Scripture within at most decades—his talent shocks ancient and modern times.

"Tai Shang Da Ri Fellow Daoist, truly extraordinary————"

"Instantly advancing to the Eight Characters Immortal Scripture, we all admire deeply.

L

The Undying Ancient Emperor, Qingfeng Beidou, Huangyan Longhuang, and other Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperors whispered in low voices, congratulating, their auras merging into one, their might like mountains and seas, forming an immortal formation seemingly more terrifying than facing current era Forbidden Zone Great Emperors, emitting ultimate terrifying power.

Clearly, facing the human forbidden zone Sword Emperor, the Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperors felt pressure, unwilling to maintain more mutual defenses, to form a stronger immortal formation.

As for this momentum, whether it is genuine or deliberately feigned to intimidate, no one knows.

"No need for this."

"You elders, though aged and declining, yet possess infinite potential, serving as excellent whetstones for the human world's sword, I will not let you die here worthlessly."

Jiang Ding glanced faintly at the various emperors, saying: "First, the Boundless Starry Sky, one-third of its star fields belongs to me."

Boundless Starry Sky, one-third of the star fields centered on the Extinction Law Star Field.

This is a vast star territory that makes one hold their breath, covering at least over a million star fields' space, with the abundance of the Golden Great Age's produce, sufficient to form many ladders to immortality.

"Very well."

The various emperors exchanged glances, said.

Only decades— they can wait, all old scores can be settled later, not quarreling over present trifles, let alone one-third star territory, even half would do?

"Second,"

"The human emperors may prioritize choosing starry sky territories, territorial regions————"

Jiang Ding looked toward the Solar Ancient Emperor, Lunar Ancient Emperor, and Qingfeng Beidou and other six human forbidden zone ancient emperors.

"Haha!"

"Hahaha! Good lad!"

The Solar Ancient Emperor stared for a moment, then laughed loudly: "Old man, I truly did not misjudge you!"

He immediately consulted with the human forbidden zone emperors for a moment, then sent a mental transmission to Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang, informing each of their results.

"Human forbidden zone emperors, the starry sky territories will be one-third of the Boundless Starry Sky, and the location may be freely chosen."

"I only have these two points,"

Jiang Ding spoke indifferently: "Fellow Daoists, what do you think?"

At this moment, Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's pressure spread in all directions, while the six great human forbidden zone ancient emperors withdrew from the emperors' immortal formation, instead merging their pressure into Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's pressure, jointly forming a vast and terrifying deterrent force against the emperors, making many forbidden zone ancient emperors feel breathless.

Many forbidden zone ancient emperors looked toward the star map.

As expected, the most essential, most prosperous, and most suitable star domains for the corresponding Dao have all been seized by the emperors of the human forbidden zones, such as the Sun Star Domain and the Yin Star Domain and other essential regions; geographically, they are even mutually complementary corners, the imperial road connecting all directions—any human ancient emperor in distress from any side can be swiftly reinforced, giving them a natural and tremendous advantage in transportation and terrain.

If, on this foundation, various star domain grand formations were further arranged, it is feared that a single forbidden zone ancient emperor could hard-resist several forbidden zone ancient emperors in their lair without defeat!

This is the terror of geographical advantage.
