Chapter 2725

The powerhouses of the Fifth Golden Great Era discovered a terrifying matter.

The terrifying black hand at the peak of the starry sky reappeared, emitting an indescribable aura, stirring the winds and clouds of heaven and earth, countless stars, sometimes suddenly disappearing.

However, not long after, this pair of terrifying black hands would reappear again.

Each time the terrifying black hand reappeared, its impact on the boundless starry sky would grow greater, and its duration would become longer, before gradually fading away.

During this process, certain things in the universe gradually faded away.

The Twelve Zhiri Golden Immortals hung high in the heavens, eternal and immortal, unaffected by worldly joys or sorrows; even the slightest things in the mortal realm could not affect them in the slightest.

But now, everything has changed.

Numerous celestial immortals, earthly immortals, human immortals, disciples, and other powerful beings from the Twelve Golden Immortals' Dao lineage emerged from the celestial holy land, spreading the Dao throughout the heavens, transforming all beings—humans, medicines, ghosts, gods, spirits, and all other sentient creatures—into disciples, passing down the Dao lineage, imparting immortal arts; for a time, the immortal Dao flourished greatly in the boundless starry sky, all spirits bowed their heads, moved to tears.

At the same time, breaking the poverty of the boundless starry sky, the blessed lands and treasuries everywhere opened wide, releasing one magical treasure and suit of armor after another, elixirs and talismans, and even renowned war immortals such as golden men, mechanical azure dragons, and the Weak Water Tianhe were taken out, continuously flowing into the boundless starry sky, the aura of war and great calamity filling the heavens—

Moreover, the ever-manifesting visions of the Yanluo Netherworld, with earthquakes and surging, howling yin winds, crowds of shadowy figures, where the immortal venerable's immortal army, which sleeps there to wage war across the boundless starry sky, lies in eternal slumber, generation after generation of immortals who have exhausted their lifespans—

The celestial army of the Immortal Venerable's heavenly court has revived again—

The boundless starry sky is shrouded by an inexplicable terrifying calamity aura, causing hearts to tremble with dread.

The variables of the boundless starry sky have never been this intense before.

Time flowed slowly, unnoticed, over two million years passed.

Boom—

On this day, accompanied by a tremendous roar from heaven and earth, that pair of terrifying black hands vanished; in their place appeared a dim yellow expanse of heaven and earth, within which misty and indistinct, chaotic air currents swirled, seeming near yet not near, far yet not far, as if separated from the boundless starry sky by a thin membrane.

It was also like the space between two massive celestial bodies drawing near, where space and time were squeezed together, forming a cavity.

On this day, only a few powerful beings saw, within that dim yellow cavity, a white silhouette gazing, silent for a long, long time.

Twelve beings of different appearances stood nearby, heads bowed, daring not to speak.

And it was from this day onward that vast numbers of Golden Immortal Dao lineage powerhouses were forged into an army, gathering here, and moreover, a nameless mighty force appeared, pushing the stars to this place to forge an immortal pass, suppressing this place.

Tai Shang Da Ri Tian Shu.

Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang withdrew his hands, which had been probing the timeline of the Fifth Golden Great Era, his eyes filled with utter calm.

Because he had already found the answer.

Before the earthly immortals, one ancient emperor after another, cultivators of the Feathered Ascension Emperor Realm, focused their minds and held their breath; many gazed at the vortex-like dim yellow cavity before the earthly immortals, within which faintly spread a temporal aura not belonging to this era, the imprint of the Great Dao, the essence of the Dao—everything entirely different from the present age.

"The timelines of the two Golden Great Eras are converging, triggering some temporal layer conflicts."

"This place is the temporary buffer zone where balance has been achieved."

Jiang Ding smiled slightly, looked at the crowd, and pointed at the cavity: "Inside is extremely fragile, only able to accommodate beings below the Supreme; if we can occupy this place, observe the timeline of the Fifth Golden Great Era within, then we can completely open the path to the Fifth Golden Great Era within a million years."

Jiang Ding smiled slightly, looked toward the crowd, and pointed at the cavity, saying: "The interior is extremely fragile, capable of containing only beings below the Supreme level. If we can occupy this place and observe the time of the Fifth Golden Great Age within it, then we can fully open the path to the Fifth Golden Great Age within a million years."

"—it doesn't matter; even within seventy or eighty million years, we can still grind it out through sheer persistence."

"Let this task be given to the newly born young Dao friends; we only need to provide logistical and research support."

"Let this task be given to the newly born young Dao friends; we only need to provide logistical and research support."

Numerous ancient emperors and Feathered Ascension Emperor Realm cultivators felt a slight stir in their hearts, then their faces turned solemn.

Within this temporal cavity, is the first collision between beings of this era and those of the Fifth Golden Great Era; even if limited to beings below the Supreme, one can still perceive the signs, see the differences between the two immortal Dao civilizations, or—【34】 —their strength or weakness.

In this temporal void, it is the first collision between the present era and the cultivators of the Fifth Golden Great Age; even if limited to beings below the Supreme, one can discern the signs and perceive the differences between the two Shi Dao Wen Ming civilizations—or perhaps, their strength and weakness.

If one side collapses within the temporal cavity, defeated and unable to reform, then what follows will be terrifying!

"Yes, Sword Master!"

The crowd replied in deep voices.

Their bodies trembled slightly, yearning.

Although all are forbidden-zone ancient emperors, their Dao hearts long tempered, at this moment they find it hard to control themselves, for the opportunity brought by a strange Golden Great Era is too great, possibly allowing them to advance further.

Especially the Qingniu Ancient Emperor and a series of Yin-Yang Dao beings; from existing materials they inferred that the cultivators who attained the Dao in the Fifth Golden Great Era might have followed the Yin-Yang Dao; once the Fifth Golden Great Era's attainment of immortality from hundreds of millions of years ago is erased, the Yin-Yang Dao will inevitably usher in a great flourishing!

For example, the Qingniu Ancient Emperor, who was once one of the Nine Great Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperors, later gradually fell behind, entering the second echelon; the higher one climbs in the immortal Dao, the more difficult it becomes; he once thought his inexhaustible foundation and talent could carry him forward indefinitely, but he only reached the height of the Five-Character Immortal Scripture before realizing this was his limit.

The Qingniu Ancient Emperor only after entering the Earthly Immortal Realm could barely enter the Four-Character Immortal Scripture, and even then struggled to progress.

The Yin-Yang Dao had already reached its limit in the Seventh Golden Great Era, entering a dead end.

Now, in the Fifth Golden Great Era, the Yin-Yang Dao might perhaps find a new path.

Now, within the Fifth Golden Great Age, the Yin-Yang Great Dao may perhaps enter a new path.

"Let us study again the ancient scroll you obtained, the principle of reversing heaven and earth"; this might be the path of that Deriving Law Immortal Venerable Dao friend—"

Jiang Ding smiled at the crowd, then plunged back into research.

Before the revival of the myriad emperors, Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang believed his probability of achieving a breakthrough in the One-Character Immortal Scripture in one leap was twenty-nine percent; even without any Golden Great Era master, with only himself as an Earthly Immortal in the observable universe, he still had a twenty-nine percent chance of attaining immortality.

Now, in exploring the Fifth Golden Great Era, after obtaining partial immortal Dao materials from it, this probability increased by several points, making him feel enthusiastic and energetic.

The Tai Shang Da Ri Immortal Dynasty army below the Supreme immediately completed reorganization and formation, then immediately set out, stepping into the temporal cavity.

These exploration forces naturally included the young Daily Sword Cultivators, Immortal Sect Cultivators, and numerous young cultivators.

They wore excellent equipment, had mastered battle formations to perfection, entered cautiously, carefully exploring everything within this temporal cavity, and meanwhile measured the Fifth Golden Great Era's rule data, spiritual energy data, spatial data, etc., transmitting them to the rear, to be handed over to the Immortal Dynasty Academy of Sciences overseen by the myriad emperors.

These incomprehensible immortal Dao data will enable these ancient emperors to obtain much intelligence about the Fifth Golden Great Era.

They wore excellent equipment, their battle formations honed to perfection as they entered, carefully exploring everything within this temporal void, and at intervals measuring the Fifth Golden Great Age's rule data, spiritual energy data, spatial data, and so on, transmitting it to the rear, where it was handed over to the Immortal Dynasty's Academy of Sciences presided over by numerous ancient emperors.

These incomprehensible Shi Dao data would grant these ancient emperors much intelligence about the Fifth Golden Great Age.
