Chapter 149: Gu Yuan… the Walking Immortal Medicine!
Meanwhile, the Burial Emperor Star Domain was in a full boil.
If we say that Gu Yuan's earlier one‑fist blast of the Half Saint only caused a small‑scale quake within the top circles of the major powers.
Then now, Gu Cangsheng erased the entire Yun family with a single finger.
Moreover, the news that a single snap of his finger rendered an Extremal Imperial Soldier obsolete spread across the entire star domain like a premature dark upheaval, causing all top powers to boil.
The rumor, like a plague, spread at an incredible speed, reaching Donghuang, Ximo, Nanling, Beiyuan, Zhongzhou…
"Did you hear? The Yun family in Beiyuan is gone!"
"What? The Yun family? That ancient clan that has been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years? How could that be!"
"It's absolutely true! The venerable ancestor of the Yun family, wielding a fully revived Extremal Imperial Soldier, was reduced to nothing by a mysterious strongman with a single finger!"
"Sss… it doesn't stop there! That person, even across countless distances, erased the entire Yun family with a single finger!? This… this is the Great Emperor's hand!"
"Indeed! It's definitely a living Great Emperor! Moreover, one of the strongest Great Emperors of all time! To clash with an Imperial Soldier bare‑handed and snap it out of existence with a finger—such power is unheard of!"
"Heavens! In our era, a new Great Emperor has been born! Is the Golden Great Era truly about to arrive?"
For a moment, cultivators across the Burial Emperor Star Domain fell into a complex mix of fear, awe, and excitement.
The Great Emperor is the end of the cultivation path, the supreme of the mortal realm, the very synonym of invincibility.
In an era, only one can achieve enlightenment.
Now, a new Great Emperor has emerged, meaning the Burial Emperor's order will be completely rewritten!
All dark upheavals in this era must stay low‑key!
To avoid being purged!
Major holy sites and dynasties hurriedly recalled their disciples abroad, and sent envoys bearing lavish gifts to Donghuang, attempting to meet the new emperor and seek protection.
They fear that a slip could make them follow in the Yun family's footsteps.
Compared with the outside world's clamor and panic,
the nine great life forbidden zones of the Burial Emperor Star Domain now fell into a strange deathly silence.
Primeval Ancient Mine, Undying Mountain, Burial Heaven Island, Underworld…
These taboo places, existing since the mythic ages, have buried more than one ancient emperor and Great Emperor.
At this moment, they seemed to awaken from an eternal slumber.
Dozens of ancient and terrifying wills slowly intertwined in the deepest parts of the forbidden zones.
"It's the Great Emperor's aura… no doubt… and among the Great Emperors, it's considered a strong one…"
Deep within the Primeval Ancient Mine, amid a massive divine source wrapped in immortal light, a vague figure drifted, emitting a weary yet weighty divine thought.
"Erasing an Extremal Imperial Soldier and a Quasi‑Emperor pinnacle with a single finger… such methods are undoubtedly those of a Great Emperor, but… why is the aura on him so strange? It belongs to no Dao of our era."
Atop Undying Mountain, beneath an ancient tree entirely black, bearing humanoid fruits, another will shrouded in endless death aura coldly replied:
"His Dao is powerful, so powerful that even we feel our hearts race; perhaps it's an ancient monster left from the immortal ages, revived in our time."
"Not just him…"
Within the Immortal Mausoleum, a massive ancient tomb cracked open, releasing an even colder divine thought,
"You… haven't sensed that little fellow by his side?"
At those words, all wills fell into a brief silence.
Moments later, waves of uncontainable greed and desire erupted thunderously throughout the forbidden zones.
"That little fellow… the life essence within him… simply… simply ten thousand times more vigorous than the legendary True Dragon Immortality Pill!"
Beneath the ruins of the Divine Ruins, a pair of golden eyes snapped open, like two suns piercing endless darkness.
"That's not life essence! That's… Immortal! It's the breath of longevity! Every inch of his flesh, every drop of his blood contains the immortal Dao principles! His bones even surpass Imperial bones, reaching a level beyond our comprehension!"
"An immortal body—this is a supreme immortal body from the Immortal Realm! If we can devour… refine it… we not only can mend the Dao wound from our self‑severed blade and return to the pinnacle, but also… glimpse the mysteries of the Immortals!"
"The Path to Immortality! This is the true Path! Waiting ten thousand ages, breaking through the Immortal Gate—both are nonsense! As long as we eat him, we can become Immortals!"
Greed, like a wildfire, instantly ignited the long‑frozen hearts of all the forbidden‑zone Supremes.
They are the ancient emperors and Great Emperors of old, who once ruled the world invincibly for an era.
But for longevity, they were willing to sever themselves once, fall from the Imperial Dao realm, become the source that sparked the dark upheaval, and have barely clung to life until now.
They waited for ten thousand ages, just to await the opening of the Path to Immortality.
Now, a temptation even greater than the Path to Immortality has vividly appeared before them.
How could they not go mad?
As for the newly emerged Great Emperor…
Though powerful, with so many Supremes joining forces and even sparing no effort to ascend, what does he amount to?
Contemporary Great Emperor?
It's merely that they are unwilling to clash head‑on with him during the Great Emperor's pinnacle.
Yet before the lure of longevity, becoming Immortal, and regaining the pinnacle, any risk is worth taking.
"Everyone, what are we waiting for?"
In the Sea of Reincarnation, towering waves rose, and several unparalleled domineering wills swept out.
These immortal treasures unseen in ten thousand ages are right before us! Must we keep waiting until we sit and transform within the forbidden zones?
"Join forces! We, the forbidden‑zone Supremes, unite! Together we hunt this beast!"
"Exactly! As long as we kill that Great Emperor beside him, that immortal body will be ours! Then we can discuss how to divide it."
"Fine! I, Primeval Ancient Mine, agree!"
"Undying Mountain, agree!"
"Immortal Mausoleum, agree."
…
In a brief moment, a terrifying covenant capable of overturning the entire universe and making myriad spirits wail was quietly achieved between the Nine Great Life Forbidden Zones.
They decided to jointly dispatch nine Ancient Emperors and launch in advance the most terrifying dark turmoil in history!
The goal is not to devour all beings to prolong life.
But rather… to hunt down that Supreme Immortal Medicine walking the mortal realm!
