Chapter 437

I learned it was merely a Primordial Spirit imprint, and that it had forgotten its past, so I ceased all communication with it and paid no heed to its warnings.

I continued deeper into the Ultimate Ancient Land, and at its very core, I encountered the true source of darkness across all realms.

A corpse...

A Dark Immortal Emperor!

It appeared partially damaged, as if sealed here, its body saturated with dense dark matter—precisely these substances eroding all realms.

To uncover what had happened in the past, I wielded great divine power and discovered this corpse was still alive.

The storm that had destroyed the Immortal Realm...

Was caused merely by this corpse's breathing, and such power made my scalp prickle.

Simply because this corpse was too strong—it was undoubtedly a true Immortal Emperor, and even its ruined remains were this terrifying; it was easy to imagine the power it held in its prime...

What terrifying might it would possess!

Moreover...

I learned why the Four Dark Emperors had sacrificed all realms—they sought the Immortal Emperor Scripture.

They eroded another realm and summoned dark lifeforms to offer as sacrifices to this corpse-Emperor, and this was the reason the Four Dark Emperors invaded all realms!

But regarding this corpse...

I felt no great fear, for I knew that though alive, it clearly could not move freely.

Thus, it posed little threat to me; moreover, since the profound meanings of the Immortal Emperor Scripture were here, I chose to remain and capture the Immortal Emperor Scripture.

To cultivate beneath the eyelids of this corpse!

And as time passed...

This corpse awoke, seeking to incite a dark chaos to draw forth life, promising to grant me the Immortal Emperor Scripture and aid my ascension to Immortal Emperor.

I refused outright—even if it meant offending an Immortal Emperor, I did not care.

The dead are dead; rest in peace!

Moreover, facing the threat of this corpse-Emperor, I plainly told it to rest, for it was already dead.

Even if not dead, it was no different from death.

And this...

Clearly enraged the corpse.

It unleashed Immortal Emperor power to forge a quasi-Immortal Emperor black dragon, and even manifested various Ten Fiends.

But I was now a half-step Immortal Emperor—how could I fear a quasi-Immortal Emperor? Thus, I defeated all the quasi-Immortal Emperor Ten Fiends and neutralized this corpse's tactics.

And this only made me even less afraid of the corpse-Emperor, for its available tactics were too few.

If this was all it could do...

Then I had no reason to fear it, especially since I was confident I could become an Immortal Emperor and needed no fear of this corpse.

Though dead, one still remains an Emperor...

You and I are Emperors—yet our bodies perish, our Dao ends.

This was the corpse's threat; then, due to its own limitations, it fell silent, and I did not care.

If you have the ability...

Then kill me!

After responding, I once again entered seclusion, contemplating my own path to Immortal Emperor, and as time passed, my strength continued to grow...

Even...

I underwent another transformation.

Yet at the final threshold, I chose to halt, for I sensed that if I pressed further...

I would very likely perish and lose my Dao—my accumulation was insufficient, the opportunity to become an Immortal Emperor had not yet arrived; but fortunately, I had already found my own path!

To forge a new system...

And to study invincible techniques!

Thus, I once again endured arduous cultivation, targeting these two directions to further refine myself.

Meanwhile, the live comments erupted:

"Tsk, such is the might of an Immortal Emperor—merely breathing, and it obliterated the Myriad Worlds!"

"Though I've seen it before, watching it again still shocks me—Road's End Immortal Emperor, worthy of the title Supreme of the Myriad Worlds, worthy of the name Infinite Multiverse!"

"So that's why Emperor Huang Tian went to protect the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands! No wonder the Immortal Realm shattered like that—I thought, with Emperor Huang Tian guarding it, how could the Immortal Realm still rot?"

"It's understandable—after all, the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands are the homeland; the Immortal Realm was merely a dwelling. Your own home matters most. Besides, if not for Emperor Huang Tian's protection..."

"The Nine Heavens and Ten Lands would've been gone long ago—after all, if the Immortal Realm is this bad, the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands must've been destroyed!"

"The Three Emperor Returns have halted—they can't advance further, likely because the corpse-Emperor's presence prevents them from approaching the Ultimate Ancient Land!"

"Sigh, the corpse-Emperor really screwed over the Three Emperor Returns—why did they go play the coward? Now the Three Emperor Returns have to beg for help and even fall into despair!"

"Those who learn from me live; those who imitate me die? Wow, did the corpse-Emperor leave this? I don't quite understand it, but it somehow feels incredibly prestigious!"

"What's hard to understand? 'Those who learn from me live' simply means: learn my ways, my cultivation path, and you'll grow better!"

"'Those who imitate me die' means blindly copying and following my path—that leads only to death. It's telling you to learn adaptability!"

"Wow, the final chapter of the Original True Interpretation is here? If this were released across All Major Realms, it'd be fought over to the death—no Sovereigns would dare stand still!"

"So that's why Emperor Huang Tian left only the Five Great Secret Realms and no other cultivation systems—he intended to leave a path for future generations!"

"So they could transcend themselves, create their own systems, like the Three Emperor Returns of One Leaf Shrouding Heaven!"

"Pity not everyone can create their own system like Emperor Huang Tian—One Leaf Shrouding Heaven's Emperor wasn't inferior, just lacked an opportunity!"

"Not inferior? Sure, but only 'not inferior'—at best, they'd reach Immortal King level, yet that's insufficient against the Weird Clan's Immortal Kings; at minimum, they need quasi-Immortal Emperor!"

"Thus, Emperor Huang Tian's method is clearly superior—it better filters and ultimately produces the Three Emperor Returns!"

"Tsk, look how anxious that rotten wooden box is, constantly urging Emperor Huang Tian to leave, yet Emperor Huang Tian simply won't listen, letting the Corpse Immortal Emperor keep striking it with lightning!"

"Here he comes, the Corpse Immortal Emperor has appeared once again, and this time from Emperor Huang Tian's own perspective; truly terrifying beyond compare, worthy of being the First Emperor of All Heavens!"

"What a pity, an Immortal Emperor who once held all living beings in his heart was turned into this by the Dark Immortal Emperor; truly, one cannot blame the Corpse Immortal Emperor for holding a grudge, for he was too humiliated!"

"Six, Emperor Huang Tian's courage is truly immense, sitting right beside the Corpse Immortal Emperor to cultivate, secretly capturing Immortal Emperor runes; if this were me..."

"Even if I coveted Immortal Emperor scriptures, I would choose to stay far away from the Corpse Immortal Emperor, after all, this is an Immortal Emperor!"

"Great skill breeds boldness; isn't it precisely because of his peerless genius and courage that Emperor Huang Tian reached this realm? If he were afraid..."

"Then he would not be Emperor Huang Tian!"

"Six, has Emperor Huang Tian gotten carried away? That was merely a sliver of the Corpse Immortal Emperor's might, yet he actually believes there is no need to fear the Corpse Immortal Emperor?"

"To be honest, Emperor Huang Tian is indeed too arrogant; this also lays the groundwork for the future ambush by the Great Luo Sword Fetus, after all, who can tolerate someone mocking them to their face?"

"Haha, thinking of the arrogant Emperor Huang Tian now, who will soon suffer a setback, I can't help but want to laugh; truly, whoever shows off first will meet misfortune!"

"Tsk, Emperor Huang Tian's state of mind is truly impeccable; knowing he cannot break through, he decisively gave up, unlike the Old Man of World Destruction, who insisted on trying!"

"Awesome, Emperor Huang Tian's comprehension is truly heaven-defying; he found his path so quickly, and found it precisely; no wonder his genius is unmatched through the ages!"

"......"

As Emperor Huang Tian entered the Ultimate Ancient Land...

The audiences of the myriad worlds undoubtedly sighed with emotion; now they finally understand why Emperor Huang Tian left only the Five Great Secret Realms of the Heaven Covering Method, for this phrase..."

"Those who learn from me shall live; those who resemble me shall die!"

And the facts undoubtedly proved that Emperor Huang Tian's approach was correct; it was precisely this action that created the Three Emperors of One Leaf Heaven Covering, allowing them to rise!"
