Chapter 247

Boom—

One day, a vast and lofty aura suddenly surged into the sky, instantly sweeping across the Nine Provinces and spreading at extreme speed throughout the myriad heavens and worlds.

Within the Nine Provinces, the supreme ancestral gods in secluded cultivation were instantly awakened, turning their gaze beyond the world, their eyes flashing with a hint of excitement.

Xi Emperor!

This thought arose in their minds, and streaks of escape light shot up into the sky, heading toward the void beyond the realm.

In the Chaos beyond the realm.

Feng Yi stood silently in the void, gazing at the ancient city cosmos before him, his qi slowly circulating, continually drawing upon its power.

"Brother Fuxi."

Shennong stepped forth from within the void, endless light of life enveloping the four directions, as if turning the entire void into a land of creation.

Evidently, Shennong has now restored his cultivation to the Sovereign Realm.

"Finally, it has begun!"

A gentle fire-light appeared, like the light of civilization, the flame of hope, transforming into a tall figure—none other than Suiren.

"The final battle—I can't wait any longer!"

At this moment, another figure emerged from the void, his muscles like coiling dragons, wielding a heavy stone axe—none other than Pangu.

Following them, Xuanyuan, Zhuanxu, Diku, Yao, and Shun—the five sovereigns—appeared in succession.

Thus, aside from Nüwa, who does not appear in the world due to special circumstances, all the sovereigns of the Nine Provinces have gathered here.

And not long after the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors appeared, experts of the Nine Provinces emerged one after another, including many supreme ancestral gods and ancestral gods, and even the existence of sovereigns; Xiao Chen was among them.

Everyone gazed excitedly at the figures of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, especially the central Fuxi, whose eyes showed a reverent expression.

These ancestors are the foundation of the Nine Provinces' current prosperity!

Pangu and the others came to Feng Yi's side, turning their gaze to the ancient city universe before him, sensing the vast aura within, and a hint of understanding flashed in their eyes.

Suiren spoke first, his tone solemn: "Fuxi, have you really decided?"

Hmm.

Feng Yi nodded, his voice calm: "Only the final step remains; I now have absolute certainty, no need to wait any longer."

As he spoke, Feng Yi's inner aura twitched slightly, and a faintly lofty aura surpassing that of a sovereign emerged, shaking Suiren and the others' hearts and minds.

Haha, good!

Sensing Feng Yi's unfathomable aura, Pangu burst into loud laughter and declared boldly: "Since it's so, let's begin; I've long wanted to thoroughly deal with those birdfolk in the One True Realm."

Hmm!

Good!

It's long overdue!

Voices of agreement rose up one after another, and Suiren, Shennong, Xuanyuan, Zhuanxu, and the others nodded as well, with no one objecting.

They had long understood Fuxi's plan, and now they naturally knew what they should do.

Hum

The moment the sound faded, Feng Yi and Pangu, along with the other Nine Provinces' sovereigns, suddenly burst forth with brilliant divine light that pierced past, present, and future.

In a blur, with Feng Yi at the center, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, including Pangu, seemed to become a single entity, merging together into an illusory hand that blotted out the sky.

That hand pierced the river of time and space, smoothed over its rifts, thoroughly linked past and future, and altered the changes in the rules of all realms.

The river of time and space surged; a special ripple swept through all realms, penetrating every corner, causing the rules of all realms to begin restoring to the ancient primordial era.

Among all realms, the hidden sovereigns seemed to sense something, their spiritual awareness violently shaken, instantly perceiving the change in the rules of all realms.

After an unknown amount of time, the hidden sovereigns' hearts filled with incredulous ecstasy.

The rules of all realms returned to normal, no longer lacking, able to accommodate sovereign-realm powerhouses, allowing sovereigns to endure forever in the world!

They no longer needed to rely on special places to hide themselves; they could freely wander the illusory realm.

What happened?

Boom—

Before many sovereigns could investigate the source of the change, a tremendous roar suddenly sounded, and an ancient aura akin to that of the primordial wilderness swept through all realms, instantly stirring their hearts and minds, giving rise to an uncontrollable yearning deep within.

With their divine thoughts penetrating all realms, the sovereigns seemed to have discovered something, their eyes revealing an undisguisable greed.

"The Origin Source Land."

In the Chaos beyond the realm.

With the complete penetration of past, present, and future, and the retrieval of their own past and future, the rules of all realms returned to their original state, as concepts originating from past and future flowed back onto Pangu and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

In an instant, their auras underwent subtle changes, becoming ever more lofty and unfathomable.

Feng Yi only felt countless new insights arise in his mind and spirit—these were the Great Dao insights of the sovereign Fuxi, granting him deeper realization and understanding of the sovereign realm.

Although, given his current cultivation and realm, these insights did not bring him a fundamental improvement, they did add much to his Dao accumulation, making his future path ever clearer.

After a while, having absorbed the Dao insights from past and future, Feng Yi gazed at the ancient city universe before him, his mind and spirit merging with it, and he pointed a finger forward.

Hum

Divine light rose from the ancient city universe, shooting straight toward the chaotic void ahead, transforming into myriad heavenly holy objects that emitted an ancient, weathered aura.

Heaven-Reaching Death Bridge, Nine-Faced Heavenly Stele, Nine Ancient Lamps, Ninety-Nine Layers of Stone Steps, Chaotic Land Heavenly Palace, Stone Key, Three Sovereigns Mirror, Five Emperors Pagoda

Thud

The moment the heavenly holy objects gathered, it was as if some kind of trigger had been pulled, and endless visions appeared throughout all realms, as if traversing the cosmic primordial, condensing the primordial essence of heaven and earth, and returning everything to the original Hongmeng Chaos.

A vast, ancient aura emanated from the heavenly holy objects, instantly sweeping every corner of all realms, penetrating every temporal node of past, present, and future, as if the entirety of all realms were being reenacted.

In an instant, endless showers of light rained down everywhere across all realms, with flowing brilliance and auspicious multicolored rays, shocking all living beings.

At this moment, myriad ages and realms seemed like a great dream; all realms appeared illusory, and even the myriad living beings were merely illusory figures in a dream—only the gathered heavenly holy objects were truly real.

Gazing at the heavenly holy objects before him, Feng Yi exchanged a glance with the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, simultaneously circulating their auras to draw forth the essential power contained within.

Hum

A hazy Dao's resonant hum rang out, and all the heavenly holy objects shed their original ordinariness, bursting forth with sacred and brilliant divine light, emitting a mighty aura, and began to rearrange and combine.

Instantly, the Chaotic Land Heavenly Palace merged with the ninety-nine stone steps, becoming a ladder to heaven; endless clouds and mist surged around it, and at its end lay the mysterious world transformed from Fengyi's ancient city cosmos.

However, between the end of the steps and Fengyi's ancient city cosmos lay a huge heavenly chasm, as if separated by a vast distance in spacetime, containing a terrifying aura that cuts through spacetime; even Emperors cannot pass through.

Just then, the Heaven-Piercing Death Bridge fell upon this boundless heavenly chasm, connecting its two ends, forming a bridge to the other shore spanning the sea of bitterness, as if continuing the road of hope for all beings.

The Nine-Faced Heavenly Steles fell respectively at various points on the stone bridge, turning into stone steles, like road signs marking the way, recording all the secrets of this road, and also resembling towering tombstones burying the former supreme Emperors.

The Nine Ancient Lamps sat upon the beams of the Heaven-Piercing Death Bridge, shining in concert with the Nine-Faced Heavenly Steles, shedding specks of soft light that illuminated the path forward for all beings.

The Three Sovereigns Mirror and Five Emperors Pagoda emitted a hazy divine light, dispelling the mist on the ladder to heaven, while also reflecting the secrets of this road.

And at the road's end, the aura of Fengyi's ancient city cosmos shifted; within it, the power of the Nine Great Spacetime Samsara Systems flowed and directly transformed into a hazy, vague mysterious source land.

Even true Emperors cannot see clearly what lies within that hazy, mysterious source land; they can only faintly sense an opened gate there, from which specks of primordial divine light spill forth—like the source of all realms, the terminus of the Great Dao, even containing the supreme mystery above Emperors, causing their hearts and minds to yearn, utterly unable to restrain their desire.

Among the myriad realms of heaven.

When the heavenly holy objects gathered and constructed the Primal Source Land, a mysterious aura pierced through the heavens, instantly drawing the attention of powerhouses everywhere.

In the Primordial Heavenly Realm, each Stone Person King instinctively looked toward the direction from which the undulation came, seeing those heavenly holy objects, and seeing that mysterious world like the source of all realms.

"Unique True Realm?"

"Such a mysterious aura must be that transcendent, worldly‑detached Unique True Realm, almost invisible!"

"The Emperors of Kyushu have actually opened the gate of the Unique True Realm!"

"It turns out that when the heavenly holy objects gather, they can indeed pierce reality and illusion, opening the gate of the Unique True Realm; and Kyushu's heavenly steles, the nine lamps, and the ninety-nine stone steps of the alien world are each one of those heavenly holy objects—no wonder Kyushu and the alien realm have been locked in endless conflict!"

"Xi Emperor truly lives up to being the most powerful existence in the heavens; he can actually open the gate of the legendary Unique True Realm."

At this moment, throughout the myriad heavens, whether the lofty Stone Person Kings or ordinary Ancestral Gods, all cultivators felt a shock from the depths of their hearts.

After all, according to rumor, the Unique True Realm is the supreme world above the heavens, the source of everything; if one could enter it, attaining the Emperor's realm might not be such a luxury.

However, although many Stone Person Kings in the myriad heavens burned with desire, they dared not make the slightest move, merely watching silently.

After all, standing before the heavenly holy objects now are figures emitting terrifying auras; their leader, having once suppressed Emperors, can be called the current strongest existence in the heavens, Xi Emperor.

The Stone Person Kings only thought that after Xi Emperor and the others entered the Unique True Realm, this gate would not close, and they could also seize this chance to enter.

At the same time, in every hidden place of the myriad heavens, Emperors likewise gazed with fiery eyes at that hazy, illusory world upon the heavenly holy objects.

Sensing the primordial order contained within that world, as well as a faint aura of the Great Dao surpassing Emperors, many Emperors' hearts gave rise to unprecedented greed and desire.

Even many Emperors within the Unique True Realm themselves could not restrain themselves, beginning to unite and prepare to break through the barrier to the Illusory Realm.

Primal Source Land!

That mysterious world is absolutely the legendary Primal Source Land, the initial ground of the Unique True Realm, and the birthplace of all myriad heavens including the Unique True Realm itself!

According to rumor, whoever masters this Primal Source Land can master the Unique True Realm, master the myriad heavens, master all Emperors, and become Emperor of Emperors.

I never expected the Primal Source Land to actually exist, and it is even stronger and more unfathomable than the legends.

At this moment, many Emperors finally understood the age‑old scheme of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors and the like.

It turns out they were aiming for the legendary Primal Source Land, seeking thereby to control the Unique True Realm and become its master—no wonder they back then refused to enter the Unique True Realm.

Thinking of this, each Emperor could not help but be shocked by the grand scheme of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

At the same time, their hearts also gave rise to boundless joy.

Although the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors have built the road to the Primal Source Land, truly mastering it still depends on whether these Emperors of theirs agree.

Even the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are merely making wedding clothes for these Emperors; ultimately it will be these Emperors who enter the Primal Source Land, become its masters, and command the myriad heavens.

With thoughts turning in their hearts, seeing the figures of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors standing before the Primal Source Land, these Emperors did not act directly but temporarily suppressed their inner desire, began to extend their divine sense through the heavens, and linked with one another.

The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors gathered together—far beyond what one or two Emperors could handle.

Moreover, they were not even certain whether this Primal Source Land was real, and thought it better to let the other Emperors probe it first.

In the extraterritorial void.

Including Xiao Chen, the Kyushu powerhouses likewise looked with shocked expressions at the reassembled heavenly holy objects, and at the mysterious world at their end.

I never imagined that after the many holy objects of Kyushu gathered, such a tremendous change would occur, directly opening the gate of the Unique True Realm and unveiling this legendary world.

After a good while, Xiao Chen came to his senses and instinctively muttered: "Is this the Unique True Realm? The Ancestral Dragon Village originates from this world—I never thought that after the heavenly holy objects gathered, they would directly open this world!"

"Unique True Realm? Perhaps!"

Then, a familiar voice sounded in Xiao Chen's ear, making him start.

He turned his gaze, seeing beside him a figure like an ordinary Ancestral God, his eyes slightly dazed, and he instinctively said: "Little Stone Emperor."

"Hehe."

The Little Stone Emperor's face showed a hint of a smile, and he softly said: "Xiao Chen, little friend, we meet again!"

"You"

Xiao Chen shook his head violently, somewhat doubtful, and said: "Senior Little Stone Emperor, you didn't fall."

Glancing at the distant figure, the Little Stone Emperor's tone carried a hint of feeling: "Naturally, it was Dao Friend Xi Emperor who lent a hand, allowing me to avoid self‑destruction; I never imagined Dao Friend Xi Emperor would have such a grand scheme."

"Grand scheme? Do you mean the Unique True Realm?"

Xiao Chen blinked, about to ask further, when the Little Stone Emperor spoke: "It has begun."

"Huh?"

Xiao Chen followed the Little Stone Emperor's gaze and saw, led by Xi Emperor, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors step forward directly toward the mysterious world atop the ninety‑nine stone steps.

The aura of the heavenly holy objects is immensely mighty; even kings cannot approach, yet the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are no ordinary beings—taking a few steps, as if crossing spacetime, they have already passed the ninety‑nine stone steps and entered that mysterious world.

Boom

As the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors entered the Primal Source Land directly, the heavens roiled; a vast aura surged from the infinite distance, shaking the myriad heavens.

The many Emperors could not stay seated!

The present Primal Source Land not only contains the primordial aura from the heavenly holy objects, but also harbors the Dao principles and aura of the Nine Great Samsara Systems constructed by Fengyi himself; for the Emperors of this realm, this is a higher‑level mystery of realm, its attraction far surpassing that of the Primal Source Land created by the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in the original work, leaving them utterly unable to command their own hearts and minds.

Originally, these Emperors still wanted to see if any mishap would occur, or they were waiting for the remaining Emperors to go and probe.

But who would have thought that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors and others would actually enter without hesitation, appearing utterly impatient.

At this moment, how could these Emperors still have the mind to continue waiting?

Not to mention anything else, once the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors mastered the Primordial Source Ground, even obtaining the Great Dao mysteries contained within that surpass the Emperor realm, achieving the realm above Emperor, how could these Emperors still have a way to survive!

After all, their worldview differs from that of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and they have long been in a state of mortal enmity.

Boom—boom—boom

In the astonished gazes of the myriad Stone Person Kings, terrifying auras swept forth from all the hidden places of the All Heavens and Myriad Worlds, each one far surpassing the King realm.

At this moment, the entire All Heavens and Myriad Worlds trembled, an extremely terrifying aura permeated heaven and earth, making all Kings feel utterly oppressed, even giving rise to a feeling of horror.

They first discovered that within the All Heavens and Myriad Worlds there actually existed so many Emperors, even giving a sense of absurdity that there were more Emperors than Kings.

At this moment, many Kings felt that their worldviews had been refreshed.
