Perfect World: Ten Crowns

Chapter 513 Reencounter with Emperor Gu
"Father, what have you discovered?"

Upon hearing Xia Sheng's words, Xia Ming asked curiously.

The journey to the Star Ruins Sea was quite an ordeal for the Dao Ancestors, but now their father is saying that they are going to have a real battlefield. What exactly is that? Could it be the Dark Clan?

"Let's go."

Upon hearing this, Xia Sheng didn't say much, but simply nodded.

Over the course of three hundred years, he did not merely sit idly by. In addition to refining his imperial weapon, he also created several avatars that ventured into the vast outer realms.

Firstly, to find Luo and Digu; secondly, to search for strange traces.

And sure enough, he actually made a discovery.

In this unknown land, shrouded in darkness and mist, one after another dark creatures stood around black altars, chanting, offering sacrifices, and praying. Powerful beings were placed on the altars, and a vast amount of cultivation materials glowed together.

If any living being were here, they would be utterly astonished.

The four major plateau outposts—the River of Souls, the Floating Soil of the Four Extremes, the Ancient Underworld, and the Burial Pit of the Heavenly Emperor—have all converged here, with no fewer than five or six Dao Ancestors alone.

It can be said that the entire dark race that roamed outside the boundary has gathered here.

Boom!

In an instant, a super-large rift opened in the chaotic void, severing the passage of time and blurring the flow of history. Then, one terrifying creature after another rushed out from it, bathed in imperial light, their auras terrifying, each carrying an ancient and unchanging aura, both frightening and horrifying.

They were all strange Dao Ancestors; a rough count revealed that there were fewer than twenty of them!

Compared to the five or six Dao Ancestors in the arena, these twenty-odd people were more composed and looked down on everything from a higher position.

Furthermore, the leaders were all carrying terrifying forbidden artifacts, emanating endless imperial power. They were all terrifying level-one weapons, overwhelming all living beings in the universe!

"Greetings, Your Excellencies!"

Immediately, all the beings at the four outposts paid homage, even the five or six Dao Ancestors from beyond the realms were extremely respectful, their strength was no match for these people.

Because this group of strange Dao Ancestors all came from that ancient plateau.

“During the last great battle, the ancestors were very angry.”

At this moment, a strange Daoist ancestor from the plateau spoke, his eyes cold as he looked down upon all living beings.

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room felt a chill in their hearts, and an indelible fear surfaced in their minds.

In that battle millions of years ago, four Lu Jin perished, two of whom were eternally forgotten. It was so terrifying that when the news reached the plateau, it triggered an unprecedented earthquake.

In the blink of an eye, only three Celestial Emperors remained on the plateau. How absurd!
As a result, more than one of the progenitors was resurrected, activating imperial power to once again illuminate the two great paths of red and silver.

However, the other five vacant positions are not so easy to fill. You should know that even the progenitors of all the strange things are healing their wounds from the Great Dao. They wish they could drain all the dark matter from the entire plateau. How could they have the spare energy to care about other things?

Therefore, even if millions of years pass, it will only mean that a new emperor has been born.

He was a veteran, enigmatic Dao Ancestor with formidable strength, only half a step away from becoming an Immortal Emperor. Because he had presided over the sacrifice of a great realm and made indelible contributions to the plateau, he was specially chosen by an ancestor to advance to the rank of Emperor.

This greatly excited the other Daoist masters on the plateau.

Who can resist the temptation of becoming emperor?
"There are still four spots available, but according to the ancestor's decree, sacrifices must be made to the heavens, and the four who have made the greatest contributions will be chosen as emperors."

The other Dao Ancestor of the Plateau had deep, dark eyes and a cold expression, emanating a power that could overwhelm all other Daos.

Upon hearing this, all five or six Dao Ancestors present were deeply moved.

In fact, the moment they touched the darkness, they lost the possibility of being promoted to emperor normally. Throughout the ages, no one has been able to break this forbidden curse.

To become an emperor, one must fill the vacant positions of the ten supreme beings.

Now, four of them have been released, how could people not be excited? However, the second half of the words of the Highland Dao Ancestor made everyone in the room feel cold, as if they had been doused with cold water.

It should be noted that since the great battle tens of millions of years ago, when the Seven Emperors of Heaven emerged and defeated all the beings at the end of the road, the entire realm has become a forbidden zone for strange creatures.

It's not that no strange Dao Ancestor has tried to enter, but all of them have been extinguished.

To ask them to sacrifice themselves to the heavens is tantamount to sending them to their deaths.

"No need to be afraid, the lords are already on their way."

At this moment, a highland Dao Ancestor spoke, his imperial eyes deep and mysterious.

Confined by the level of the teleportation array, the supreme beings could only travel from the plateau. As for them, they were merely the outposts for attacking the heavens.

“In fact, one of the adults is already incredibly close to this area.”

Another Taoist master from the plateau added that he came from the Heavenly Emperor's Burial Pit.

At the end of the silver road, although he perished back then, he was not forever silenced. With the help of an ancestor, he was revived and his cultivation was restored to its peak.

According to his intuition, that person should be not far away and would arrive soon.

"Stop! Hmm, we've spotted a big fish."

In another world, Xia Sheng, who was traveling at high speed, suddenly stopped.

He was originally heading to that strange area, the place where the four outposts converged, where more than forty strange Dao Ancestors were enough for the younger generation behind him to fight.

However, Xia Sheng's other clone suddenly received an urgent distress call.

"Digu, he's being hunted down."

After ascertaining the identity of the person seeking help, Xia Sheng immediately took action and changed direction without hesitation.

Compared to dozens of Dao Ancestors, beings at the end of the road are the real big fish.

Of course, he didn't let the other side off the hook either.

Swish!
An imperial sword appeared, which Xia Sheng handed to his eldest son. He then looked at the Footprint Emperor, Willow God, and several leading figures from the heavens, his eyes radiating an incomparably dreamlike light:
"Go ahead and hold them off for a while. I'll be there shortly."

Including the Dao Ancestors of the Heavenly Realm, this group of Dao Ancestors were the elite of the elite. More importantly, as the method of reflecting reincarnation became more and more perfect, almost everyone had a substitute death talisman.

As long as they are not destroyed into eternal silence, they can be revived from the eternal land behind them.

This is also a major contingency plan created by the emperors of Heaven over thousands of years.

"Follow the law!"

Immediately, guided by the Emperor Sword, the Dao Ancestors set off and embarked on the real battlefield.

As for Xia Sheng, he narrowed his eyes slightly and headed in another direction.

Soon, hidden in the void, he arrived and saw Emperor Bone.

Behind him, a supreme being was in pursuit; it was none other than Silver Road End, wielding a silver spear, unleashing his tiger-level combat power, which caused the heavens and the ages to boil.

However, after seeing the scene inside, Xia Sheng was speechless.

No wonder the Silver Road ended here, chasing Emperor Bone all the way to this place.

The reason is that under Emperor Gu's feet was a silver imperial bone, a spoil of war from the past. How could anyone tolerate stepping on someone else's imperial bone in front of them?
"Don't panic, Lao Gu, I'm here to help you!"
