The Immortal Emperor Reborn: Accompanying My Child on the Extraordinary Journey

Chapter 126: The truth about external forces

The heavens, a vast expanse of heaven and earth, shrouded in clouds and mist, overflowing with spiritual energy. Yun Che stood atop a suspended island, overlooking the magnificent scene below, his heart filled with awe.

“Is this really the heaven?” Yun Che muttered to himself, his eyes filled with wonder and curiosity.

Ever since entering the Celestial Realm, Yun Che had been experiencing its differences every day. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth was so dense it was practically liquefied, and all sorts of miraculous phenomena and creatures appeared endlessly, truly eye-opening. However, as he gained a deeper understanding of the Celestial Realm, he also gradually began to feel the pressure and challenges it presented.

"Yun Che, what are you daydreaming about?" A clear and pleasant voice came from behind him. Yun Che turned around and saw a woman dressed in a colorful feathered dress walking towards him. It was his good friend and confidante, Meng Li.

“Mengli, you’re here.” Yun Che greeted her with a smile. “I was just marveling at the wonder and beauty of the heavenly realm.”

Mengli smiled slightly, her eyes gleaming with wisdom. "Yes, the Heaven Realm is indeed a magical place. However, the competition here is far more intense than in the world of cultivation. If we want to gain a foothold here, we must put in more effort."

Yun Che nodded, deeply agreeing. He knew that while he possessed considerable strength in the world of cultivation, he was only just starting out in the celestial realm. He needed to work even harder to find his place in this world of powerful individuals.

At this moment, a sudden roar could be heard in the distance. Yun Che and Meng Li exchanged glances, both sensing something was amiss. They quickly dodged and flew towards the source of the sound.

Soon, they arrived at a battlefield. They saw a group of black-robed monks engaged in a fierce battle with a group of celestial monks. The black-robed monks were powerful and ruthless, clearly not to be trifled with.

“Where on earth did these black-robed monks come from?” Yun Che frowned.

Mengli looked solemn: "I don't know either. However, they are very powerful, so we must be careful."

Yun Che nodded, and in a flash, he joined the battle. His strikes were as fast as lightning, and with a flash of sword light, he instantly killed several black-robed monks. However, the black-robed monks were numerous and powerful, and they soon fell into a difficult battle.

At this moment, a black-robed monk suddenly soared into the air and attacked Yun Che. In his hand, he held a long sword as black as ink, and the sword exuded a chilling aura, clearly a powerful magical weapon.

Yun Che snorted coldly, and instead of retreating, he advanced head-on. With a single swing of his longsword, it collided with the black-robed monk's. With a resounding clang, sparks flew and a surging wave of energy erupted from the point where the two swords met.

Yun Che felt a surge of immense force, and his body involuntarily took several steps backward. He was secretly shocked, knowing that the strength of this black-robed cultivator should not be underestimated.

At this moment, Mengli suddenly shouted, "Yun Che, be careful!"

Yun Che's heart tightened upon hearing this, and he quickly looked up. He saw a black-robed monk had appeared behind him without him noticing, stabbing his longsword towards his back.

Yun Che was horrified and quickly dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding the attack. However, just as he dodged the attack, he felt a sharp sword energy rush towards him. He looked up and saw another black-robed monk swinging a longsword towards him.

Yun Che steeled his resolve, deciding not to hold back. Spiritual energy surged within him, and with a single swing of his sword, he met the black-robed monk's attack. With a resounding "crack," Yun Che's sword slashed the black-robed monk's sword in half.

The black-robed monk was horrified and quickly retreated. However, Yun Che followed him like a shadow, pursuing him relentlessly. With a single swing of his sword, he struck the black-robed monk's neck.

The black-robed monk was unable to dodge and was beheaded by Yun Che's sword. His body fell powerlessly, and his blood stained the ground red.

The other black-robed monks were all terrified upon seeing this. They knew they had faced a formidable opponent. However, they did not retreat, instead attacking Yun Che and Meng Li even more frantically.

Yun Che and Meng Li fought side by side, facing the crazy attacks of the black-robed monks, they were not afraid at all. Their figures flashed, swords flashed, and they continuously killed the black-robed monks.

However, the number of black-robed monks was too great, as if they were endless. Although Yun Che and Meng Li were powerful, they gradually felt exhausted.

At this moment, a black-robed monk suddenly soared into the air and attacked Yun Che and Meng Li. In his hand, he held a huge axe, which shone with a dark light, clearly a powerful magical weapon.

Yun Che and Meng Li exchanged a glance, both realizing the strength of this black-robed cultivator. Not wanting to be careless, they quickly joined forces to meet the enemy.

With a resounding "boom," Yun Che and Meng Li collided with the black-robed monk. A surge of wind and dust rose, and the entire battlefield seemed to tremble with shock.

When the smoke and dust cleared, Yun Che and Meng Li were both severely injured, and the black-robed monk was also in poor condition. His clothes were torn and his body was covered with wounds, clearly having suffered considerable trauma.

However, the black-robed monk did not retreat. He laughed wildly and brandished his axe, attacking Yun Che and Meng Li again.

Yun Che and Meng Li gritted their teeth and joined forces once again to meet the enemy. They knew there was no escape now. Only by defeating this black-robed monk could they possibly survive.

After a fierce battle, Yun Che and Meng Li finally slew the black-robed monk. However, they paid a heavy price. Yun Che's left arm was severed, blood gushing out; Meng Li's chest was also lacerated with a deep wound, blood staining her clothes red.

They supported each other and struggled to stand. Looking at the corpses of black-robed monks scattered across the ground, they felt no joy at all. They knew this was just the tip of the iceberg. There were many more black-robed monks watching them from the shadows, waiting for the opportunity to capture them all.

At this moment, a celestial cultivator suddenly flew over. He looked at Yun Che and Meng Li, his eyes filled with admiration and gratitude. "Thank you both for your help. If you hadn't arrived in time, we would have been in great danger."

Yun Che and Meng Li nodded slightly in response. They knew this was not the time to be polite. They needed to recover their strength as quickly as possible to face the next challenge.

Seeing this, the celestial cultivator didn't say anything more. He took out a bottle of healing pills and handed them to Yun Che and Meng Li. "This is a healing pill. Take it first. After you recover some strength, we'll discuss countermeasures together."

Yun Che and Meng Li accepted the pills and nodded gratefully. They knew this was not the time to be polite. They needed to recover their strength quickly to face the next challenge.

After taking the pills, they began to circulate their spiritual energy to heal their wounds. Time was running out, and they had to race against time to recover their strength.

After a period of healing, Yun Che and Meng Li's injuries finally stabilized. They stood up and looked at the corpses of the black-robed monks scattered on the ground, their hearts filled with emotion.

“Where exactly did these black-robed monks come from?” Yun Che asked again.

Upon hearing this, the Celestial Realm cultivator said solemnly, "These black-robed cultivators are not actually from the outside world. They are composed of cultivators who are dissatisfied with the cultivation world. They intend to achieve their own ambitions by subverting the order of the cultivation world."

Yun Che was horrified upon hearing this. He had never imagined that these black-robed cultivators would actually be composed of cultivators from the world of cultivation. This reminded him of his own experiences in the world of cultivation, and the intrigues and deceptions of the past seemed to resurface before his eyes.

"Then why did they choose to take action in heaven?" Mengli frowned.

The celestial cultivator explained, "There's actually a secret passage between the celestial realm and the cultivation world. This passage can only be discovered by powerful cultivators. These black-robed cultivators have apparently found this passage. They intend to use it to bring the chaos of the cultivation world into the celestial realm."

Upon hearing this, Yun Che’s eyes gleamed with determination: “Then we absolutely cannot let them succeed!”

The celestial monk nodded and said firmly, "That's right! We must join forces to completely eliminate these black-robed monks!"

Yun Che and Meng Li exchanged a glance, each seeing the determination and courage in the other's eyes. They knew this was no time for hesitation. They had to stand up and fight the black-robed monk to the death for the peace and tranquility of the heavens!

In the days that followed, Yun Che and Meng Li began to travel around the heavens, constantly searching for the traces of the black-robed monks, trying to capture them all.

However, the black-robed monks were like ghosts, their whereabouts elusive. They always appeared at the most unexpected moment, bringing fatal blows to Yun Che and Meng Li.

Although Yun Che and Meng Li were powerful, they gradually felt exhausted and powerless. They knew that this was not the way to go. They had to find a more effective method to completely eliminate these black-robed monks.

So, they began to inquire about the news in the heavens, hoping to find some clues that would help them find the lair of the black-robed monk.

After some inquiries, they finally got some useful information. It turned out that the Black Robe Monk's lair was hidden in a mysterious forest in the heavens. This forest was full of dangers and opportunities, and it was a place that many monks dreamed of.

Yun Che and Meng Li were overjoyed upon hearing this. They knew that as long as they could find this forest, they would likely be able to find the black-robed monk's lair.

So, they set out towards the mysterious forest. Along the way, they encountered many dangers and challenges. However, with their unwavering faith and immense strength, they overcame them one by one.

Finally, one evening, they arrived at the entrance of the mysterious forest. The forest was shrouded in mist, resembling a fairyland. However, they knew that beneath this beautiful exterior lay countless dangers and opportunities.

They took a deep breath and stepped into the forest. Along the way, they moved forward carefully, fearing to disturb the creatures in the forest.

After some exploration, they finally arrived at a clearing deep in the forest. Standing in the clearing was a huge black palace, carved with all sorts of strange patterns and runes, emitting an evil aura.

“This is the lair of the black-robed monks!” Yun Che looked at the palace, his eyes gleaming with determination.
