Chapter 90: Engaging the Weird Ancestors of the Shi Wai Gao Yuan, Amidst the Long River of Time
Under the purification of holy light, Shi Hai Xian Di finally awakened from the Darkness.
He also realized the sins he had committed over these years.
He had intended to protect a World, yet who would have thought he would become the greatest Dark Source of this realm.
Unprecedented guilt arose in the heart of Shi Hai Xian Di.
He bowed deeply toward Qin Hao and said, "Many thanks, Senior, for helping me awaken from the Darkness. If not for you, I do not know how much longer I would have wallowed in the Darkness and how much damage I would have caused to this World."
Shi Hai Xian Di felt the aura on Qin Hao, which was like an abyss, and felt only incomparable power.
He guessed that the other party must have broken through to a realm above Immortal Emperor.
If it were not a realm above Immortal Emperor, it would have been impossible to save him from the Darkness.
Shi Hai Xian Di paused and asked, "May I ask how to address you, Senior?"
Qin Hao looked at Shi Hai Xian Di and said, "I am the Lord of the Heavenly Court—the Heavenly Emperor."
Qin Hao did not hide his origins.
"The Outer Heaven Court?"
Shi Hai Xian Di said in surprise, "Does Senior come from the World above God Above?"
He looked toward the rift above; that was the World of God Above.
In the eyes of Shi Hai Xian Di, the World of God Above was incomparably powerful.
Otherwise, he, the first Immortal Emperor to open up the heavens and earth, would not have been so easily plotted against and corrupted.
Shi Hai Xian Di did not understand the World of God Above.
However, he guessed that since the World of God Above had such Weirdness as the primordial black blood, there must also exist powerful forces of light to contend with it.
Perhaps this Heavenly Emperor was a force fighting against that Weirdness.
Qin Hao shook his head; he stood with his hands behind his back, also looking toward the World of God Above.
His gaze traversed the void, looking directly at that Weird Shi Wai Gao Yuan.
"I do not come from the World of God Above; I come from the Great Primordial World."
Qin Hao was contemplating the feasibility of pacifying the Weird Source of God Above, the Shi Wai Gao Yuan, at this time.
The Weird Clan was extremely evil, immortal and indestructible; even if killed, they would resurrect in the Shi Wai Gao Yuan.
Therefore, to end the Darkness and end the Weirdness, one must completely annihilate the Shi Wai Gao Yuan.
In the end, Qin Hao temporarily abandoned this decision to wage war on the Shi Wai Gao Yuan and pacify the Guiji Yi Shi.
He must completely unify the entire Great Desolate World; everyone, including Dao Ancestor Hongjun, must be under the rule of the Heavenly Court.
At the very least, they must reach a cooperative alliance.
Qin Hao did not worry about the Saints; his only worry was Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
To wage war on the Shi Wai Gao Yuan, it would be necessary to use a great deal of power, for that World was not weak.
What if Dao Ancestor Hongjun took this opportunity to steal his home base?
However, having descended into the Perfect World this time, he did not know if that old fox Dao Ancestor Hongjun would appear.
Shi Hai Xian Di did not know the Great Desolate World, but he guessed it must also be a powerful World.
He was not surprised; there was a World above God Above, so there must surely be powerful Worlds elsewhere.
Shi Hai Xian Di pondered for a few seconds and immediately said to Qin Hao, "Your Majesty, I wish to join the Heavenly Court; is that possible?"
As the strongest being in this realm, Shi Hai Xian Di was most worried about the Fate of the living beings of this realm.
Yet he was also very clear that, at least for now, the living beings of this realm had little power to resist the Weirdness from God Above.
As an Immortal Emperor, he had been directly corrupted by the primordial black blood and could hardly resist; how could others?
At least for now, he was already the strongest being in this realm.
Relying on his own power alone, it was difficult to contend with the Weird Source from God Above.
Therefore, Shi Hai Xian Di did not hesitate and directly chose to join the Heavenly Court.
With the Heavenly Court as a backer, he would have a chance to contend with the Weird Source and protect the living beings of this realm.
Shi Hai Xian Di felt immense guilt for this realm at this moment; if not for him being corrupted by the primordial black blood, this realm would not have suffered Dark Turmoil time and time again.
He only wanted to properly guard this realm and protect its living beings.
Qin Hao nodded at Shi Hai Xian Di and said, "Very well. You join the Heavenly Court, and you shall guard this realm and protect it."
Qin Hao also saw the wish of Shi Hai Xian Di, so he ordered Shi Hai Xian Di to guard this realm.
He tapped the center of Shi Hai Xian Di's brow, imparting various methods to him.
These methods could allow Shi Hai Xian Di to break through his own realm and become a more powerful expert.
And just as Shi Hai Xian Di joined, he also received a notification of an increase in Qi Luck.
Shi Hai Xian Di bowed in gratitude again and said, "Many thanks, Your Majesty, for bestowing the Great Dao upon me."
Shi Hai Xian Di was exceptionally grateful to Qin Hao.
If not for the Heavenly Emperor, he would still be fallen into the Darkness, life or death unknown, harming the living beings of this realm.
If not for the Heavenly Emperor, he would not know when he would have the chance to glimpse the realm above Immortal Emperor.
Just as Shi Hai Xian Di was about to say something more, he suddenly saw two Weird Immortal Emperors from God Above launching a sneak attack on Qin Hao.
He hurriedly called out, "Your Majesty, be careful!"
Qin Hao turned to look at the two Weird Immortal Emperors surrounding and attacking him, and struck out with a palm.
These two Weird Immortal Emperors were directly blasted apart by his palm.
But these two Weird Immortal Emperors felt no fear; instead, they uttered harsh threats before exploding.
"Has another invincible expert appeared in the lower realm? It does not matter; we will return soon to end your life."
The Weird Immortal Emperors were not afraid of death at all, because of the nature of their Weird Clan.
Even if killed, they will be resurrected within the Shi Wai Gao Yuan.
The most terrifying aspect of the Weird Clan is that they are undying and inextinguishable.
Countless powerful opponents, unaware of this characteristic of theirs, were ultimately ambushed to death.
In fact, during the wars between the Weird Clan and other races in the God Above, the other races even held the advantage at one point.
Regrettably, relying on resurrection time and time again, the Weird Clan ultimately ground down all living resistance in the God Above.
In the end, the world of the God Above completely devolved into a backyard kept by the Weird Clan.
A small sacrifice every epoch, a great sacrifice every multiple epochs.
Throughout countless epochs, it was not as if no one had reached the realm of Sacrificial Dao to wage war against the Weird Gao Yuan.
Yet, facing the ten Ten Great Ominous Ancestors of the Weird Gao Yuan, they ultimately fell short of success.
And from then on, to prevent the birth of any powerhouse in this world capable of threatening the Weird Clan, whenever a Quasi-Immortal Emperor appeared in the heavens.
The Weird Clan would appear to ambush and kill them, directly sacrificing them.
Perfect World is the Perfect World beneath the God Above.
Perfect World actually belongs to the lower realm of the God Above.
The Weird Clan has always kept a close watch on this world, preventing the birth of an Immortal Emperor existence.
Eventually, Shi Hai Xian Di became an emperor, and two Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperors took advantage of Shi Hai Xian Di's unstable foundation to directly pollute him, developing him into a spokesperson for the Weird Clan.
Now, seeing the appearance of Qin Hao, this Weird Immortal Emperor wanted to strike again to ambush, kill, or pollute Qin Hao.
Regrettably, Qin Hao was too powerful and slapped them to death with one palm.
Yet even so, this Weird Immortal Emperor was not afraid.
Because they would eventually be resurrected within the Shi Wai Gao Yuan, the ancestral land of the Weird.
"Return?"
Qin Hao let out a soft shout and said indifferently, "Naive."
The rules of the Great Dao ground down these two Weird Quasi-Immortal Emperors, and at the same time, ground down their Fate Line.
In the long river of Fate and Time and Space, they were directly erased.
Past, present, future—all traces of their existence and all traces of their fate were completely erased.
If they could still be resurrected after this.
Then they would truly be formidable.
And just as Qin Hao was erasing these two Weird Immortal Emperors of the Weird Clan.
Above the God Above, the Shi Wai Gao Yuan.
This is a plateau forgotten by Time and Space and the Great Dao, seemingly not existing in time, nor existing on any timeline.
This is a forbidden land filled with Nothingness and Destruction, permeated with Darkness and weirdness.
In this forbidden land, all laws are extinguished; even the most terrifying power would turn into void.
Even if the Great Dao were to fall into it, it would be eroded by the Weird Darkness.
Nothingness, grand, transcendent, eternal, mottled.
Terrifying, boundless black mist shrouds this plateau; one cannot see any manifestation of rules or the true face of order.
This is the ancestral land of the Weird Clan, where the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors of the Weird Clan slumber.
Throughout countless epochs, it is precisely from here that one great sacrifice after another has been launched.
The God Above became a kept territory of the Weird Clan, and the world beneath the God Above was likewise tainted by Darkness.
And just as those two Weird Quasi-Immortal Emperors had the traces of their existence erased, one Weird Ancestor after another woke from their slumber.
Their bodies were shrouded in black mist, covered in long hair, stained with black blood, and carrying an ominous aura.
Every drop is primordial black blood, capable of polluting everything in the world.
Shi Hai Xian Di was polluted by such a drop of primordial black blood, ultimately falling into Darkness and becoming the source of Darkness in the lower realm.
The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors stood upon the Shi Wai Gao Yuan; the void cracked, the rules wailed, the chains of order collapsed, and the Dao patterns dissipated rapidly.
With every breath they took, there was Darkness and ominousness, eroding the entire world.
This is too terrifying; they are the source of ominousness and Darkness between heaven and earth.
Even the long river of Time and Space in the void feared them and bypassed them.
At this moment, the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors sensed that the two Weird Quasi-Immortal Emperors had been obliterated, and a premonition of disaster arose in their hearts.
For powerhouses like them, such a premonition is absolutely not groundless.
One Weird Ancestor spoke, "Two Quasi-Immortal Emperors have fallen; they have truly vanished and cannot be resurrected again."
This Weird Ancestor acted to evolve the rules, wanting to resurrect these two Quasi-Immortal Emperors.
Regrettably, it had no effect.
"I can feel that the traces of their existence have been directly erased, and all memories concerning them are disappearing."
A Weird Ancestor discovered a truth that shocked them.
That is, the entire Weird Clan has already forgotten the existence of these two Quasi-Immortal Emperors.
And if it were not for the formidable strength of the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors, perhaps they too would gradually forget the traces of these two Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperors' existence.
Of course, there is a mysterious will erasing this segment of their memory; perhaps before long, they too will forget these two Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperors.
This made even the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors unable to sit still.
For so many years, the Weird Clan has dominated the heavens, looking down upon billions of living beings.
What have they relied on to keep all the living beings of the God Above world in captivity?
The Weird Clan's greatest reliance is that the Weird Clan is undying and inextinguishable.
Even if the Weird Clan is killed, they will eventually be resurrected within the Shi Wai Gao Yuan.
Relying on the characteristic of being undying and inextinguishable, with the ebb and flow of strength, the Weird Clan eventually dominated the God Above World.
In this world, if one wishes not to become a sacrifice for the Weird Clan, there is only one choice: join the Shi Wai Gao Yuan and become a member of the Weird Clan.
"I had a dream. I dreamt that a peerless enemy descended, the Shi Wai Gao Yuan collapsed, and we all died in battle."
A Guiji Yi Shi spoke gloomily.
At his level of cultivation, dreams are already omens, omens of the future.
The Guiji Yi Shi present all repeated a few words.
"A peerless enemy?"
Of course, there were also arrogant Guiji Yi Shi who were disdainful. He spoke, "A peerless enemy? Throughout endless ages, how many brilliant and talented monsters have been born, emerging suddenly, wanting to flatten the Shi Wai Gao Yuan? Unfortunately, aren't we still the victors in the end?"
Through eternal epochs, the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors have sat high above the Shi Wai Gao Yuan, looking down upon hundreds of millions of living beings.
They sacrifice this world time and time again without a second thought; living beings are merely sacrifices, and even Immortal Emperors are just slightly stronger sacrifices.
In the eyes of the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors, Quasi-Immortal Emperors and Immortal Emperors are not even different.
Only existences above the Immortal Emperor level will make them take a second look.
Yet, even those above the Immortal Emperor level have been killed by them throughout the endless ages.
Brilliant and talented monsters rise suddenly, facing dangers all the way, defeating all enemies, finally walking before them, and then being killed by them.
The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors have been invincible in this heaven and earth for too long, so long that they have become lonely.
"Even if it is a peerless enemy, so what? It is nothing more than grinding away another existence above the Immortal Emperor level."
There was once the Flower Pollen Empress, who was brilliant and talented and created an entirely new system; she ascended above the Immortal Emperor level and fought her way into the Shi Wai Gao Yuan alone.
But was she not also unable to defeat the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors, eventually dying and dissipating?
In the view of the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors, the living beings of God Above are just like a group of ignorant fools.
Clearly, as long as one embraces Darkness and joins the Weird Clan, one can be undying and inextinguishable.
Yet there is always such a group of people who do not know how to live or die, vainly attempting to challenge their majesty and pacify the Weird.
A Guiji Yi Shi still spoke with caution, "Let us join forces to calculate who this enemy in the prophecy is. I want to see who can end my clan."
The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors look down upon all living beings and view the heavens with arrogance, but they are also very clear that they are not the strongest.
Their current strength is merely thanks to the legacy of an unknowable and invisible powerhouse.
The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors have initiated blood sacrifices epoch after epoch, all to break through their own realms and move closer to that unknown powerhouse.
Now that a Guiji Yi Shi has had a dream that reflected a future enemy, they must be on guard.
If possible, they will strike now to kill this future Great Emperor.
The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors strike, reflecting the River of Time, wanting to find that enemy.
A terrifying and peerless aura fills the space between heaven and earth.
Finally, a figure with their back to all living beings appears in the River of Time.
A life of solitude, back to all living beings, cutting off eternity alone.
He supports all living beings with one hand, destroying the Darkness.
Who claims to be invincible, who speaks of never being defeated, the Emperor Fall Era does not want to see it!
Almost instantly, the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors felt a sudden inspiration in their hearts, sensing the call of Fate in the dark.
The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors spoke a name in unison.
"Huang!"
The future peerless enemy of the Weird Clan—Huang.
The existence who will destroy the Weird Clan and end the Darkness—Huang.
The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors reflect the River of Time, exploring the future.
Based on the Causality of two Weird Quasi-Immortal Emperors, they deduce the Causality.
They did not deduce the existence of the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court, but they did deduce their fated opponent—Huang.
"Huang, our future enemy?"
The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors look at each other.
"Then let us take advantage of the time before Huang rises to erase this future enemy."
The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors prepare to join forces to erase this future Great Emperor directly within the River of Time.
And that figure with his back to all living beings, who cut off eternity alone, finally turns around.
He makes no movement, yet he is like a towering mountain peak, supporting the firmament, the sun, and the moon, impossible to climb.
His face is calm as water, yet his eyes hold brilliant radiance.
He Transforms into Freedom, He Transforms into Eternity, He Transforms into Reincarnation.
Huang Heavenly Emperor from the future watches the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors silently, colliding with them in the River of Time.
Almost in an instant, the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors feel it in their hearts.
It is almost impossible for them to erase this future Great Emperor within the River of Time.
And at this moment, Qin Hao also senses the River of Time.
Huang from the River of Time and the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors are colliding from afar.
Qin Hao says indifferently, "The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors, the source of the Weird?"
He slaps his palm toward the River of Time, striking at the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors.
This ordinary palm strike is condensed with his 1,500 Great Dao.
Great terror!
Great terror!
The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors leave the River of Time rapidly the very moment that Covering the Sky giant palm descends into the River of Time.
However, the giant palm that was Covering the Sky pierced through the River of Time, continuing to descend in pursuit of the Ten Great Ominous Ancestors.
The palm of the Great Dao finally struck the Shi Wai Gao Yuan, leaving behind a massive palm print and triggering tremors throughout the Shi Wai Gao Yuan.
Within the River of Time, Huang and Qin Hao stood facing each other from afar; he bowed to Qin Hao and then vanished.
Qin Hao sighed softly and said, "It is still not enough!"
The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors are not terrifying; what makes things thorny is the Shi Wai Gao Yuan, or rather, that unknowable and invisible existence.
After pondering for a moment, Qin Hao decided to play it safe for now.
He would fully integrate the entire Great Primordial World, break through his own strength to its peak state, and then go to wage war on the Shi Wai Gao Yuan.
He set up an Immortal Execution Sword Array around the world rift.
This Immortal Execution Sword Array is the number one killing formation in Honghuang, which Qin Hao learned from Tongtian Jiaozhu.
It is just that, without the Immortal-Slaying Sword now, it cannot fully unleash the complete power of the Immortal Execution Sword Array.
But it is already enough, should any more Immortal Emperors of the Weird Clan rush out from the world rift.
Then the Immortal Execution Sword Array will kill every single one that comes.
Qin Hao gave another instruction to Shi Hai Xian Di, saying, "You shall guard this place; if there is any situation, you may seek reinforcements from the Heavenly Court."
Shi Hai Xian Di spoke in awe, acknowledging the order.
In his eyes, the Heavenly Emperor is his second parent, and his strength is astonishingly powerful.
Shi Hai Xian Di only wishes to atone for his sins now, so he is naturally very willing to guard this world.
After Qin Hao finished his instructions, he turned and left.
In the land of the Shi Wai Gao Yuan, waves of weird and ominous aura erupted one after another.
The Ten Great Ominous Ancestors wore grave expressions; facing that palm of the Great Dao that suddenly appeared in the River of Time, they all sensed danger.
"Reflecting the future, is the future Great Emperor of our Weird Clan not Huang? Then what exactly was that giant palm that appeared at the end?"
"Is it a protector of Huang's Dao?"
