Chapter 131

The Corpse Emperor laughed miserably!

From corpse to emperor, one cannot deny he was extremely special, a peerless powerhouse following the Nether Emperor, naturally possessing his terrifying aspects.

He had also once looked down upon the myriad ages, ruled the Underworld, and watched generation after generation of Taigu Royals and Great Emperors meet their end.

And now.

He too had reached the end, unexpectedly defeated by the Wushi Great Emperor after returning to his absolute peak.

"What a pity... unable to see the Immortal..."

The Corpse Emperor coughed up large mouthfuls of blood, his physical body collapsing and shattering, and could no longer reassemble.

In this final moment, he ultimately still harbored regret; twice an emperor, he had lived through incomparably long ancient years, yet ultimately still fell halfway.

However, all of this had completely lost its meaning.

Finally.

"Boom!"

The Wushi Great Emperor's Forbidden Chapter Secret Technique erupted, Heavenly Emperor Level might blooming to the extreme!

The Corpse Emperor was thoroughly suppressed and killed; he let out a loud cry, his body split into five pieces, blood splattering the Nether Soil.

His Primordial Spirit also could not escape, was seized, and after an investigation was thoroughly shattered.

Like the Suppressing Prison Emperor, the Corpse Emperor likewise perished!

At this moment, Ten Thousand Dao orders manifested between Heaven and Earth, boundless Blood Rain fell, the Great Dao roared, the Star Universe trembled, as if seeing off these two Provers of the Dao who once reigned supreme beneath this Xing Kong.

The Outside World.

The Heavens and Myriad Domains, countless Saints nearly petrified, shaken to the utmost!

Because they sensed this aura of desperation pushed to the extreme, as well as that brilliant Immortal Light reflecting across half the Universe.

Tens of thousands of years have passed; since the Void Great Emperor, a Flawless Great Emperor once again clashed with an Extreme Sublimation Imperial Path Supreme and suppressed and killed him, like a myth!

The other side of the battlefield.

The Chaos Monster, besides being shocked and terrified, also killed its way into a frenzy, and had long since suffered severe injuries.

He roared loudly, spraying a mouthful of essence blood onto the Heaven-Reaching Nether Treasure, making a desperate deathblow.

This black, lustrous, and crystalline Nether Artifact resembled a Treasure Wheel; at this moment it slowly rotated, manifesting Corpse Mountains and Blood Seas, suppressing toward Gu Xuan's Dao Body, accompanied by tens of thousands of Great Dao Symbols.

Instantly, this piece of Nether Soil became like a quagmire, slowing Gu Xuan's movements, and various Dao Talismans flickered, power peerless, absolutely capable of injuring a Great Emperor's body.

However.

The Chaos Square Vessel above Gu Xuan's head flew out, crashing forward, and all the Great Dao Runes shattered completely.

Even the Heaven-Reaching Nether Treasure trembled violently, flying backward.

Two weapons nearly connecting to the Immortal met; ultimately victory and defeat were decided, and of course this had a great deal to do with their users as well.

The next moment, Gu Xuan took a step forward, time and space seemingly reversing, striking down with a fist to suppress and kill the Chaos Monster.

"Boom!"

The monster's body split into five pieces; whether limbs, chest and abdomen, or brow center, all were pierced through, leaving several finger holes, and then exploded with a boom into smithereens.

Only a single pitch-black Primordial Spirit shot skyward, hooking the Heaven-Reaching Nether Treasure, wanting to flee this battlefield.

But ultimately it could not succeed; captured alive by Gu Xuan, studied through and through, then slapped to death with a palm, turning into flying ash, never to reassemble again.

This is another method of forming a Chaos Body, gathering the myriad bloods of the world, fusing them into one, achieving chaos, creating Immortal Blood.

But if one could truly walk to the end, for instance truly swallowing and devouring Wushi's true blood, perhaps one could also achieve success.

This has the subtlety of different paths leading to the same goal as Gu Xuan's method of forming a Chaos Body in this life, merely the Chaos Monster's road was filled with cruelty and bloodiness.

In the world, some roads always intersect; one cannot speak of which is higher or lower, merely they occasionally meet together.

Up to this point.

The Three Supremes of the Underworld have all been struck down and killed!

This God War can be called shocking and world-shaking, fierce and peerless, yet the time was not long, one could even say it was very fast.

In less than ten moves, the battle was already declared over.

Gu Xuan and Wushi both, through searching the enemies' Primordial Spirit memories, learned that in the Underworld's earlier years, there were still the Longevity Heavenly Venerate, Yama Emperor, Source God, Source Ghost, and other Supremes.

Of course, Gu Xuan had long known of this, just not this thoroughly.

One can say, in a certain past era, the entire Underworld was quite flourishing, fully seven or more Imperial Path Experts.

However.

Many years later, the Longevity Heavenly Venerate left the Underworld, entering the Immortal Mausoleum Forbidden Zone of the Beidou Ancient Star; thereafter, no matter how the Underworld's Supremes invited him, he was unwilling to return.

Perhaps he ultimately did not approve of the Underworld's concept of fusing myriad bloods to forge a Chaos Body, or perhaps he glimpsed a strand of the Underworld's future blood-colored curtain call; the entanglements and causes within are difficult to fully recount...

As for the Source God and Source Ghost, these two Supremes were quite special, fond of eating the immortal treasures within source stones.

Therefore, they too early on entered the Taichu Ancient Mine.

The above three Supremes all left the Underworld as early as the era when the Xi Huang Mu suppressed the world.

And the Wushi Great Emperor also discovered no traces proving they also participated in the sneak attack and murder of his father.

And regarding the last Supreme, the Yama Emperor, he did participate in this action, but was heavily struck by the Xi Huang Mu in the past, suffering not light injuries.

Coupled with this person's era of existence being too ancient, his Blood Qi was inherently insufficient; ultimately he died in the Underworld, sitting in meditation and passing away.

All of the above were searched out by Gu Xuan and Wushi from the Primordial Spirits of the Suppressing Prison Emperor and others, and can also be counted as a kind of shocking secret news, fundamentally unknowable by the world.

And right at this moment.

"Boom!"

The Beidou direction suddenly transmitted a terrifying fluctuation, as if a Supreme was about to appear, the aura astonishing.

Gu Xuan and Wushi both had cold, sharp eyes, turning their heads to gaze toward that Xing Kong.

Even though they were in the Underworld's Hun Dun Mi Jing, they saw which Forbidden Zones emitted the movement.

The Taichu Ancient Mine and the Immortal Mausoleum Forbidden Zone!

Needless to say, this is most likely because the Source God, Source Ghost, and Chang Sheng Tian Zun sensed the fall of their former fellow Daoists, hence this reaction, as if they were coming to reinforce.

This is understandable.

Rabbit dies fox grieves, things hurt for their kind, and after all they are their fellow Daoists; the Chaos monsters are even more the same kind as the Source God and Source Ghost.

Even further, although they did not participate in the sneak attack on Wushi's father, they once hibernated in Di Fu, and there is a certain possibility they would incur Wushi Great Emperor's displaced anger, and then face liquidation in the near future.

But in the end, the Immortal Mausoleum Forbidden Zone and the Taichu Ancient Mine still quieted down; a Supreme's demonic voice rang out, seemingly persuading each other.

And the Source God, Source Ghost, and Chang Sheng Tian Zun also ultimately did not appear in the world.

Not to mention, every Forbidden Zone Supreme is extremely selfish; unless absolutely necessary, no one would break the seal and emerge, for the loss would be too great!

And even if they came to reinforce, it would already be too late; the highest probability is they would only end up staking their own Imperial lives.

……

Gu Xuan and Wu Shi looked toward the Beidou Star direction, waited a moment, and did not wait for new opponents to arrive, so there were no extra complications.

They cleaned the battlefield, collecting one by one the weapon fragments left by the Zhen Yu Emperor and the Corpse Emperor, and also suppressed the Tong Tian Ming Treasure.

Thereafter, they stayed another three days in the Hun Dun Mi Jing of Di Fu.

The two delved deep into this vast and boundless Ming Tu world, seeing many ancient and mysterious things; even Gu Xuan was somewhat surprised.

"At the end of reincarnation, all will fall curtain; Di Fu is the destination of all living beings……"

This saying has spread in the world since ten thousand ages past, corresponding to the legendary Ancient Heavenly Court.

Now it seems, it is perhaps not empty words.

The previous God War had incomparably violent fluctuations, tearing open the vast Ming Tu, revealing the terrifying scene within.

Those were boundless Ming Jie things: deep red thick blood rivers, countless ancient coffins.

Even more were corpses of all shapes and kinds, some as large as stars, some undying like Divine Gold, all of terrifyingly ancient vintage.

Continuing deeper into Di Fu, they also saw several steles, ancient to a terrifying degree, fundamentally impossible to verify what era they were from; the characters on them were hard to recognize, transcending the category of Imperial script.

Finally, through a stele they could read, the two learned some shocking secrets.

Di Fu's people once excavated undying divine corpses, Imperial Path Figures, belonging to before the Mythological Era, believed to originate from the incomprehensible Chaos Ancient years.

Such divine corpses totaled at least three unearthed; the Corpse Emperor belonged to one of them, and later actually went from corpse to Emperor, proved the Dao a second time, creating a miracle!

The other two, unfortunately, were both incomplete, ground away in the great war between Di Fu and the Outside World in ancient history.

In the deepest heavy ground of Di Fu, in a grand Zhen Yu Dian, Gu Xuan and Wu Shi sat cross-legged discussing the Dao.

Gu Xuan studied the Tong Tian Ming Treasure thoroughly, then gifted it to Wu Shi.

This weapon was mainly forged from Dark Immortal Gold, and fused multiple Immortal Golds; it can be called undying, rare even among Extreme Dao Imperial Weapons.

And within it a deity had long since been born, only to be thoroughly suppressed after the battle.

In a certain sense, it was like the Supremes of Di Fu, also one of the accomplices in Di Fu's organization plotting to harm Wushi's father.

Wushi Great Emperor blasted out the strongest Divine Rules, dissolving the deity within the Tong Tian Ming Treasure, and thoroughly shattered this weapon, which could be considered settling this karma.

Gu Xuan watched all this, his gaze always calm; he understood Wu Shi's action — were it him, he would inevitably do the same.

Afterwards.

Wu Shi wanted to give all the Dark Immortal Gold, as well as the portion of Dragon-Pattern Black Gold he had previously collected, entirely to Gu Xuan.

And he himself actually intended to keep not a shred.

Obviously, this was his immense gratitude to Gu Xuan for helping him avenge this great enmity; some divine materials and immortal materials barely counted as a thank-you gift.

"No need for this; now I have no use for these, rather you need them more."

Gu Xuan declined politely.

Because obviously speaking, Wu Shi had just become Emperor recently; the Immortal Gold he found was merely the divine essence within Chaos Stones.

While Gu Xuan's Chaos Square Vessel had long since fused the nine great Immortal Golds, nearly connecting to Immortal.

Finally.

Under Wu Shi's insistence, he still accepted a small amount of Dark Immortal Gold, to later fuse into the Chaos Square Vessel.

And the vast majority of the other immortal materials were still returned to Wu Shi, to further enhance the undying nature of his Wushi Bell.

……

"Senior, you mean the Ming Emperor created the Tribulation-Crossing Heavenly Merit, and now reincarnates life after life in the mortal world?"

In the Zhen Yu Ancient Hall, Wu Shi's face was somewhat moved, a strange brilliance flashing in his eyes.

Because during the Dao discussion, he had once asked Gu Xuan if he knew of the Ming Emperor.

And Gu Xuan naturally knew these secret hearsays; combining his own knowledge, he roughly recounted them to Wu Shi.

"Tribulation-Crossing Tian Zun Cao Yu Sheng…… nine lifetimes reincarnation to become Immortal?"

"Ming Zun, accepted Di Zun as disciple, Yuan Di……"

Hearing these great ancient secrets of the Ming Emperor one by one, even Wushi Great Emperor could not help but be somewhat dazzled and lost in spirit.

In this Great Universe, there truly are extraordinary people emerging in succession!

Ming Emperor, Di Zun, Undying Heavenly Emperor, Ruthless Great Emperor, and the Holy Emperor Gu Xuan before him, etc. — whichever one, all qualify as pioneers on the Immortal Path.

Even strong as he, Wu Shi, the first Innate Holy Body Dao Embryo to prove the Dao in history, with talent unprecedented and unmatched, does not dare be arrogant.

Of course, realizing this point will not affect his Dao Heart.

After all what he lacks is merely time; given time, he too will inevitably reach that step, even surpass predecessors.

This is Wushi Great Emperor's transcendent confidence, and he indeed has this capital.

Finally.

After three days passed, Gu Xuan's this Dao Body dissipated, transforming into light rain and temporarily fusing into the Chaos Square Vessel.

Because he is still in the midst of metamorphosis, state unstable.

Although strictly speaking, his Dao Body's duration far exceeded three days, it still had some impact on his main body's transformation.

Wu Shi would also bring this journey of conquering Di Fu to an end.

He did not engage in a great slaughter here.

It was just that in the previous terrifying God War, at least ninety percent of the Yin Soldiers and Yin Generals were wiped out, buried within those supremely violent Supreme fluctuations.

The remainder were merely those who had seized the opportunity slightly earlier, escaping into the starry sky outside the Hun Dun Mi Jing, luckily surviving a calamity, yet many still suffered heavy injuries, showing how terrifying this great battle was.

He summoned the sole remaining Great Sage-level Yin General, ordering him to gather the remaining Yin Soldiers, not to bring disaster to the world.

And Wu Shi had long since repaired that Underworld Dragon Vein Great Array, re-arranging the layout of this place.

This granted the array true life, equivalent to him being personally present here; as long as he did not die, unless one could defeat him, the Great Array fundamentally could not be broken open.

Without a Dao achiever, having lost Imperial Path experts, Di Fu was equivalent to having declined; it was impossible to defy a Current Era Great Emperor's will. That Yin General agreed with fear and trembling, bowing his head, not daring the slightest disobedience.

From this point on, Di Fu thoroughly reached its curtain call!

Even the Wushi Great Emperor felt somewhat dazed, as if it were not quite real.

A generation of Di Fu, roaming the universe for ten thousand ancient years, a truly immortal major power that could rival the Ancient Heavenly Court, was thus pacified by him and the Saint Emperor, heading toward decline.

Of course, after countless years, if the Nether Emperor recovers from the Tribulation-crossing Heavenly Merit, re-establishes Di Fu, everything will be different; winds and clouds will surely rise again!

But that was already no longer something Wu Shi could concern himself with.

……

When he walked out of the Hun Dun Mi Jing, the whole world shook violently!

For three full days, the many Supreme Races and major powers across the universe tightly watched this region of the starry sky; sect treasures like the Source Heaven Divine Eye did not relax in the slightest.

Everyone desperately wanted to know the ultimate result of this battle.

And — how the Wushi Great Emperor himself fared, and so on.

Although in the gaps when the Dragon Vein Dharma Array shattered, the world saw some traces of light and shadow.

That was the Wushi Great Emperor unleashing boundless divine might, raising a hand to suppress a Taigu Emperor within.

Even more people saw, beneath the Chaos Square Vessel, the faint appearance of a generation's Saint Emperor's figure!

Compared to the former, the latter scene was even more shocking.

Could it be that the Saint Emperor truly participated in this battle, together with the Current Era's Wushi Great Emperor pacifying the Di Fu organization?

Or was it merely the deity contained within the Chaos Square Vessel, reappearing his divine might and majestic bearing?

It is only a pity that Di Fu's Underworld Dragon Vein Killing Array can be called magnificent; in this level of Supreme-level God War it never completely collapsed, still locking down this heaven and earth, and isolating most prying.

Even the powerful Divine Sense of Forbidden Zone Supremes could only probe a general idea.

But finally.

Three days later, the Wushi Great Emperor's appearance, carrying a certain special Qi mechanism, announced the final result of this God War.

The Wushi Great Emperor slaughtered several Supremes of Di Fu, thoroughly pacifying this Forbidden Zone!
