We agreed to go to Taishan Sect and you will pull the coffin for me.

Chapter 379 Dark Invasion
Lu Heng's mind raced. He remained silent, gazing into the endless chaos. He glimpsed a magnificent sea of ​​realms, where the remnants of countless worlds floated and sank. At one end, the Eternal Great Realm hung high, which should have been immortal and radiant, but now it was stained with dark spots.

Originally suspended above the Boundary Sea, obscuring all things in time and space, that sword light that had dominated for eternity was now softly resonating, as if it were resisting some existence and had no time to pay attention to anything else.

He carefully sensed it and breathed a sigh of relief. The dark erosion had begun, but the strange plateau deep in the Evil Land had not yet recovered. Not to mention the progenitors, even the dark beings at the end of the road had not appeared. There were only a few people who were restrained by the Desolate.

"I see, it's the prelude to the grand ceremony."

Lu Heng seemed to be deep in thought. In each era, before the Great Sacrifice, the Evil Land would send its dark creatures to invade, both to spread the seeds of darkness and to oppress the native world, so that countless heroes would be born.

Like the previous Eternal Realm, although it was extremely prosperous, it was still too comfortable. Despite the emergence of numerous Heavenly Emperors and True Immortals, their actual potential had not been fully unleashed, and they did not even meet the standards of the Great Sacrifice. This is why the Dark Erosion was used to force and exploit them, so as to reach the benchmark of prosperity.

This practice is somewhat similar to that of a livestock farm.

"The Strange Plateau is rootless and barren. All dark creatures are transformed from the creatures of the primordial heavens. Therefore, the Strange Plateau did not destroy the primordial heavens, but used them as a breeding ground, repeatedly harvesting and continuously transforming dark creatures."

Lu Heng sighed. This world was indeed hopeless, starting all over again with each era. How could it compare to the accumulated foundation of the strange plateau over countless eras?

Even if one finally manages to ascend to the rank of Immortal Emperor after countless hardships, the strange plateau can send out ten of them at once, and above that, there are ten more Primordial Ancestors, making it almost impossible to escape the cycle of reincarnation.

He looked towards the other end of the Boundary Sea, where three terrifying Quasi-Immortal Emperors stood, their dark aura vast and boundless. These supreme giants looked down upon the heavens, occasionally glancing warily at the sword light that had dominated the ages.

Surprisingly, the three dark beings did not attract sword light when they stepped into this boundary sea. It is unknown whether this was due to their being fallen beings born from the boundary sea, or whether the ancestor of the strange plateau intervened to restrain them.

Lu Heng concealed his aura, and the Eternal Gourd above his head suppressed everything, so the three Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperors did not notice him.

He observed the three people from afar and felt a sense of familiarity. His thoughts drifted through the river of time, allowing him to glimpse events from the end of the previous era.

Lu Heng pondered, "It's actually these three people."

On the other side, the three Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperors, unaware of Lu Heng's presence, looked down upon the Primordial Heavens and the Eternal Great World, exchanging whispers among themselves: "We've finally found that person's birthplace after all these years. It's been hidden so deeply that if it weren't for the sudden surge in the level of beings in this world and its extreme prosperity, we probably wouldn't have been able to discover it."

"Remember our mission: we've returned primarily to prevent his birth!"

As the dark mist dissipated, the three beings revealed their true forms: two men and one woman, all in human form. The aura they exuded was unparalleled, almost suffocating.

Brilliant runes swirled around their bodies, the dense patterns indicating that their Daoist techniques were extremely profound, making them powerful individuals with invincible potential.

A man, clad in celestial golden armor, carrying a large halberd, with a full head of silver hair, possessed an intimidating presence, his pupils as sharp as blades.

An old man with red hair and a robust physique held a snow-white measuring ruler in his hand. He possessed an invincible aura, as if he could measure the heavens and destroy all enemies.

The last woman was beautiful, in her thirties, and wore a long gold dress that resembled armor. She exuded nobility and had a captivating gaze.

She possessed outstanding beauty and, as a quasi-Immortal Emperor, naturally exuded a unique aura. Coupled with her extraordinary appearance, she appeared exceptionally refined.

Indeed, these three were powerful figures from the future who unexpectedly entered the battlefield at the end of the last era, during the battle between the Desolate Heavenly Emperor and the Four Quasi-Immortal Emperors, the Old Man of Annihilation.

But before the three could deal with the Desolate Emperor, Ye Fan, the Empress, and Wu Shi, the trio, followed closely behind and went against the flow of time to block them.

"Judging by the time, it's about time." Lu Heng frowned slightly. Ten thousand years ago, Ye Fan and the others had already advanced to the peak of the Immortal King realm. If the darkness were to invade and bloody battles were to rage, they would easily become giants, or even the strongest Immortal Kings. They were probably only half a step away from becoming Quasi-Immortal Emperors.

The arrival of the three Dark Ancestors will push the trio's potential to its limit. Fortunately, their main task is to go back in time to kill Huang and deal with Ye Fan and the others at will, which prevents them from being killed.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the wonders of time and space are truly astounding."

Lu Heng clicked his tongue. The dark creatures, in their efforts to prevent the birth of the Desolate One, had overlooked the unexpected turn of events involving Ye Fan and his two companions, making them a prime example of losing both their wife and their army.

Then he seemed to be deep in thought. The three Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperors were in a hurry to return to the past. It seemed that Huang was playing guerrilla warfare in the chaos, restraining the strange progenitor, which brought great pressure.

If I'm not mistaken, three progenitors have been revived so far.

"The invasion of darkness is so swift; I wonder what the situation is like in the Eternal Realm."

With a thought, Lu Heng remotely probed into the Eternal Realm and instantly gained insight into everything.

Originally, the Eternal Realm was vast and boundless, with countless beings rising up on one continent. Now, a small part of it has been torn apart, turning into an independent dark domain.

The two sides, one large and one small, divided the heavens and each occupied their own territory, with their armies facing each other at the front lines.

On the main battlefield, the Immortal King is the commander, the True Immortal is the general, and the Supreme Being is the soldier.

The dark forces are all under the command of the three quasi-immortal emperors, and can be described as having a cloud of immortal kings and countless true immortals rising up.

On the other hand, the Heavenly Court only has a dozen or so Immortal Kings. The strongest are Emperor Zun, Duan De, and Ye Xiaju, who have also reached the level of Immortal King giants. Next are Jiang Su, Wang Bo, Divine Silkworm, Divine Emperor, Divine Child, and others. That's right, even the Divine Emperor has been revived from the dead silence, but he is still struggling and under great pressure.

Fortunately, Lu Heng glanced around and found that familiar faces such as Gai Jiuyou, Chaos Jade Emperor, Jiang Ming, and Xiao Song had not perished. Although they were seriously injured and only managed to survive after taking the Longevity Elixir, they still had a glimmer of hope to maintain their lives.

Even so, it is enough to demonstrate the cruelty of the dark battlefield.

"Huh? Where did Ye Fan, Wu Shi, and the Empress go?"

Lu Heng's thoughts shifted, and he grasped the secret of heaven. His gaze fell on the rear of the Eternal Great Realm. In a bustling universe that covered the sky, in the original Ziwei Supreme Terrace, the three figures sat cross-legged, their auras unstable, with wisps of strange origin rising, almost falling into darkness.

Over the past 100,000 years, after breaking through to the Immortal King realm, Ye Fan and the other two quickly became Immortal King giants, thanks to their unparalleled foundations. At this point, their accumulation on the Immortal Path in the Mortal World was basically exhausted, and they began to explore the path to becoming an Emperor.

Unfortunately, without much pressure, no matter how reckless you are, the progress is minimal.

Seventy thousand years ago, a sudden invasion of darkness struck, nearly killing many of their old friends. This enraged the three, who then slaughtered their way through the darkness, charging into the army seven times and slaying three or four giants.

Because of his overconfidence, he recently attracted the attention of the Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperor, who struck him with a palm. The three of them perished on the spot, with only a wisp of his essence remaining intact. However, his condition was not good, and he seemed to be about to fall into darkness.

Perhaps the three Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperors, seeing the three's extraordinary talent, took pity on them and attacked them, not completely obliterating them, leaving them with a sliver of life. But if they successfully undergo Nirvana, they will only have one path to take: accepting the corruption of dark power.
