Chapter 287

【I once wished to guide them onto the path of the strong, yet they all merely followed in my footsteps】

【In the end, none of them stepped out onto a path that belonged to themselves】

【Therefore, in my despair I also came to understand one truth, and that is that what is truly strong is the person】

【Not precious techniques. Even if I taught my disciples the True Dragon Precious Technique, the True Phoenix Precious Technique, and other heaven-defying divine arts, they would still only walk along following my back!】

【Therefore, I needed to teach a heaven's pride who was inherently invincible, not a heaven's pride piled up with precious techniques】

【Later, I waited bitterly for another epoch, and finally at the end of the Chaotic Ancient Epoch, I awaited my ninth disciple, whose name was Shi Hao, also known as Huang】

【I placed great hopes on Huang...】

【I knew he had been implanted with the Zhe Xian Curse】

【But in my view, this was not a bad thing—on the contrary, it was a good thing. So long as Huang could endure through the Zhe Xian Curse, what in this world could still cut him down?】

【Thus, under my guidance, Huang endured through the Zhe Xian Curse by his own strength, rendering it useless ever after】

【But this was not the end...】

【Because after learning of the terror of darkness at the Sea of Boundaries, and with the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths being eroded by darkness】

【I placed great hopes on Huang...】

【I knew he had been implanted with the Zhe Xian Curse】

【But in my view, this was not a bad thing—on the contrary, it was a good thing. So long as Huang could endure through the Zhe Xian Curse, what in this world could still cut him down?】

【Thus...】

【After drawing from the previous experience】

【This time I did not pass down the great law that Huang wanted, but instead led him to step out onto a path that belonged to himself. I wished to forge a true invincible existence.】

【Because what I needed was a Transcender!】

【Under my guidance】

【I used the Zhe Xian Curse to temper him. If he could endure through it, he would become the most powerful Escape Unity Realm cultivator in the world, and possess the most powerful Dao foundation】

【And in the end, Huang did not disappoint me. He endured through the Zhe Xian Curse by his own strength, rendering it useless ever after】

【But this was not the end...】

【Because after learning of the terror of darkness at the Sea of Boundaries, and with the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths being eroded by darkness】

【Therefore, a crazy idea arose within me, and that was to actively be eroded by darkness, so that I would possess the ability to resist, or even ignore, darkness】

【Thus, I borrowed the erosion of dark true blood upon Huang, and Huang likewise did not fail my expectations...】

【He successfully withstood it!】

【His flesh was, to a certain extent, immune to the erosion of dark matter. I believe that so long as he kept resisting dark matter, one day he would be able to ignore darkness】

Hiss!

At this moment, with the life of the Forbidden Zone Master laid bare, the audiences of the myriad worlds were undoubtedly filled with admiration for him.

After all, looking across the entire Perfect Great World, how many could possess such grand ambitions like the Forbidden Zone Master, and moreover take action for it, even at the cost of their lives!

Even

Even in the endless years after death...

He still strove to pacify the darkness, and in one breath took in eight disciples in succession!

Such a mindset and grand ambition undoubtedly won the respect of countless audiences across the myriad worlds. Even the mighty of the myriad worlds and the supreme beings of each realm could not help but regard him with solemn respect!

At the same time, the bullet comments exploded:

"Damn, isn't the Forbidden Zone Master being way too humble? If that kind of talent only counts as decent, then aren't the rest of them a bunch of trash? Excessive humility!"

"Oh? The Forbidden Zone Master is actually friends with Dark Liu Shen? That's something I didn't expect. It seems the Forbidden Zone Master's help to Emperor Huang Tian also has a bit to do with Dark Liu Shen!"

"Say what you will, the Forbidden Zone Master is truly a man among men. To pacify the darkness upheaval, he directly followed those faint footprints from the Emperor Fall Era into the Sea of Boundaries!"

"What a pity, although the Forbidden Zone Master was a giant among Immortal Kings, wanting to pacify the upheaval was still unrealistic. He couldn't even reach the Ultimate Ancient Land. How lamentable!"

"The Sea of Boundaries is truly terrifying. No wonder they say True Immortals entering the Forbidden Zone are certain to die. Even the Forbidden Zone Master, a giant among Immortal Kings, nearly died there upon entering!"

"If a True Immortal-level existence were to enter, no matter how extraordinary your talent, you still couldn't escape death!"

"Tch, they're all transformed into forbidden zones, so why is the gap so huge? Look at the Forbidden Zone Master—he transformed into a forbidden zone to pacify the upheaval..."

"Now look at those supremes from Shrouding the Heavens with a Single Leaf. They still have the nerve to talk about the emperors and sovereigns of yesteryear. They aren't even fit to carry the Forbidden Zone Master's shoes—truly contemptible!"

"Sigh, the Forbidden Zone Master still perished. He couldn't even preserve his flesh, only a skull and a lingering obsession remained, wanting to forge an invincible being!"

"Holy crap, every disciple of the Forbidden Zone Master is extraordinary. It's no exaggeration to say each of these disciples has the talent of an Immortal King, the potential of a giant!"

"What a pity, all these disciples perished. None of them listened to advice, stepping onto that path too early, and as a result all died. Wouldn't properly cultivating to become Immortal Kings have been better?"

"Some were courting death, some had no choice. Like the Forbidden Zone Master's last disciple Qing Yue—she wanted to live too, but the battle of Immortal Ancient forced her to go!"

"Therefore, she undoubtedly perished. There was no helping it—after all, when the nest is overturned, how can any egg remain whole?"

"That's right, the Forbidden Zone Master was right. Although his disciples' talents were extraordinary, their future achievements would at most reach the Supreme Giant realm. How could that be called transcendence?"

"Therefore, what he needed to cultivate was a heaven's pride who walked his own path and was inherently invincible, not a heaven's pride piled up with precious techniques, walking in his footsteps!"

"Here he comes, it's really Emperor Huang Tian. He's the Forbidden Zone Master's ninth disciple. No wonder the Forbidden Zone Master protected him so much later—it's because of the disciple identity!"

"Hiss, the Zhe Xian Curse? What's going on? How did Emperor Huang Tian get hit with the Zhe Xian Curse? He's only at the Escape Unity Realm right now. How could he possibly withstand the Zhe Xian Curse?"

"Right, you must remember that even the Kun Peng of the Ten Evils realm was killed by the Zhe Xian Curse. The current Emperor Huang Tian is only at the Escape Unity Realm—he absolutely can't withstand the Zhe Xian Curse!"

"Damn it, the Zhe Xian Curse couldn't have been planted on Emperor Huang Tian by those remnant immortals from the Immortal Palace, right? Judging by the nature of those remnant immortals, they would really make a move on Emperor Huang Tian!"

"Perhaps, but no need to worry too much. Even an Immortal King's ambush couldn't kill Emperor Huang Tian, so a mere little Zhe Xian Curse likewise couldn't possibly kill Emperor Huang Tian!"

"Damn, isn't the Forbidden Zone Master being way too crazy? He actually sees the Zhe Xian Curse as a good thing, something to use to temper Emperor Huang Tian. Isn't he afraid Emperor Huang Tian will be done for?"

"If he's done for, that's Emperor Huang Tian's fate. After all, it wasn't the Forbidden Zone Master who actively planted it. Since it's already planted, naturally he has to gamble once and grind away the Zhe Xian Curse!"

"Awesome, Emperor Huang Tian actually endured it. With only Escape Unity Realm cultivation, he withstood the Zhe Xian Curse—and that's a curse even True Immortals can't withstand!"

"Holy shit, has the Forbidden Zone Master lost his mind? Look how scared he made Emperor Huang Tian—he actually wants Emperor Huang Tian to actively erode darkness, and he really did it?!"

"Six six six—the key is that Emperor Huang Tian really pulled it off. This scene has truly overturned my understanding!"

"Impressive. No wonder even Emperor Huang Tian was scared out of his wits. The darkness that the Immortal Domain avoids in terror, the Forbidden Zone Master actually wants Emperor Huang Tian to actively come into contact with it—there's no one else like him!"

"Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the future invincible Emperor Huang Tian was forged. After all, tempered by the Zhe Xian Curse and the true blood of darkness, only then is the foundation truly profound and solid!"

"......"

Super Beast World.

"The Forbidden Zone Master is truly admirable!"

"Not only is his own strength formidable, he also harbors great ambitions. Even after perishing, he still never forgot!"

"For this purpose, he successively took in eight disciples, each one extraordinarily gifted, reaching the peak of True Immortal, but regrettably none of them ultimately managed to become Immortal Kings!"

Huo Huo Linfei's group was full of emotion.

At this moment, they only felt that the Forbidden Zone Master was worthy of respect, and even felt an inexplicable pang of heartache for him.

After all, the eight disciples he painstakingly cultivated—in the end, not a single one rose to prominence. Let alone surpassing him, they didn't even reach his realm!

Honkai: Star Rail World.

"This is what a genius is!"

At the Dark Space Station, Herta, hailed as a genius girl, was utterly shocked. Those eight disciples taken in by the Forbidden Zone Master, whether male or female...

far surpassed Herta in terms of talent. This made her unable to help exclaiming in wonder, feeling that she was nothing but a clown!

And she still dares call herself a genius girl...

Look at that young lady of the Jin Wu clan, look at that Qingyue Fairy—what kind of genius girl is she?

"This is truly mad!"

On the other side, Void Star God was somewhat embarrassed.

No matter how he thought about it, he never imagined that the Zhe Xian Curse, which could easily annihilate him, was actually used by the Forbidden Zone Master as a tempering for Emperor Huang Tian, forging a supreme foundation!

And that Dark True Immortal who had horrified him even through the screen—he actually used it to temper Emperor Huang Tian as well...

These scenes overturned his understanding far too much!

Not only him...

Destruction Star God Nanook, Elation Star God Aha, Preservation Star God Qlipoth, and even Erudition Star God Nous, the numerous Star Gods were all shocked to the extreme!

Aha couldn't laugh anymore...

Erudition Star God Nous gathered all knowledge related to madmen, yet found none more mad than this!

The Forbidden Zone Master's various actions not only overturned their understanding but also refreshed their worldview, making them feel that all of this was so unreal!

And if even the Star Gods were like this...

There was no need to mention the strong ones from other worlds—each and every one of them was dumbfounded, only feeling that the Forbidden Zone Master was terrifying!

A certain Shrouding the Heavens World.
