A human cultivator shouted loudly, his joy and excitement evident in his voice.
Although his body was covered in blood, even caked in dirt, the joy and shock in his heart were undeniable.
"It's Lu Ze! A cultivator from the Sacred Sun Holy Land!"
A saint son exclaimed in surprise, revealing the identity of the human cultivator carrying the ancient tablet.
On the towering Heavenly Palaces, countless gazes turned towards this cultivator named Lu Ze.
His words had been too attention-grabbing.
The appearance of an ancient emperor, and the claim that humans have emperors...
Had he discovered something?
And what of the ancient tablet he carried on his back?
"How could humans have emperors? The King Ancestor once said that humans could never produce an Extreme Dao Emperor. Stop spouting nonsense!"
The black giant tiger scolded angrily, its expression dark.
It had come bearing the decree of the King Ancestor. Just moments ago, it had said humans had no emperors, and everything was a deception.
Now, this human cultivator was shouting about the appearance of an ancient emperor, claiming humans had emperors.
Was this not a slap in the face, not only to him but also to the ancient kings behind him?
"Lu Ze, don't panic. Tell us everything that happened,"
The Supreme Master of the Sacred Sun Holy Land stepped forward, bringing Lu Ze before the six of them, speaking kindly.
Lu Ze had once been an inconspicuous disciple of the Sacred Sun Holy Land. This time, he had come to the holy city, but he didn't even have the qualification to enter the Immortal Palace.
So, under the gaze of the six supreme leaders of the human factions, he felt a surge of pressure, his heart trembling, and he couldn't help but swallow nervously.
But after calming himself, he began to recount his experience.
"To report to the Supreme Master, this is what happened:
A few days ago, when I first arrived in Sacred Sun City, I met an old Daoist outside the city.
He told me he had great fortune to bestow upon me. At first, I didn't believe him…"
As Lu Ze spoke, the sequence of events slowly unfolded before everyone.
It turned out that after receiving the "immeasurably valuable" treasure map from Duan Yunsheng, Lu Ze immediately set off towards the marked location.
When he first arrived at the destination, Lu Ze was filled with excitement, feeling that a great opportunity awaited him.
However, when he arrived, he found two cultivators holding their own "priceless ancient scrolls."
These two cultivators looked frustrated, claiming they had been tricked by a shabby old Daoist and had ended up at this location.
The so-called "priceless ancient scroll" was nothing but a scam, and there was no treasure here at all.
It was at this point that Lu Ze realized he had been deceived.
Disheartened, he was about to leave, but something held him back.
After all, the terrain marked on the ancient scroll seemed to match the surroundings perfectly, and it felt extraordinary.
What if there really was some treasure hidden here?
With a sense of curiosity, Lu Ze decided to venture alone to the towering sacred mountain in the center, surrounded by countless peaks.
And that's when he was shocked.
Because there was indeed something unusual atop the sacred mountain!
At the foot of the mountain, there was a brilliant light, dazzling and radiant, as though an ancient cave was rising and falling.
Lu Ze hurriedly approached, only to discover it was the entrance to an abandoned source mine.
The ancient mine, which had likely been abandoned for countless millennia, was full of the marks of time, with the tunnels blocked by massive boulders.
The radiant light was emanating from the cracks between the stones.
Excited, Lu Ze quickly cleared the boulders, hoping to uncover the source of the divine light.
But before he could find its origin, he unearthed an ancient tablet!
The tablet was several men high, magnificent and imposing, with a distinct aura of antiquity emanating from it. One glance revealed its extraordinary nature.
This tablet had likely been erected in this place many eons ago, its surface covered in dust.
At the same time, an overwhelming aura, as if capable of shaking the heavens and the earth, emanated from the deep recesses of the mine, causing the tunnel to collapse once more!
Lu Ze was filled with fear, quickly carrying the tablet out of the mine, though suffering significant injuries in the process.
But when he wiped away the dust on the tablet and read its contents, his body trembled violently, his gaze filled with an indescribable shock!
The contents of the tablet shook him to his core.
Perhaps, just perhaps, humanity really did have emperors in their history!
…
After hearing Lu Ze's account, there was a moment of silence within the Immortal Palace.
Everyone's gaze was fixed on the ancient tablet behind him.
What could be recorded on this tablet that had caused Lu Ze to react so strongly?
The Supreme Master of the Sacred Sun Holy Land immediately acted, bringing the tablet before him.
In an instant, all eyes were glued to the tablet!
The ancient tablet exuded the aura of ancient times, its surface covered in the wear of countless millennia.
Etched upon its face were simple yet powerful strokes, forming an image!
In the center of the image, there was a terrifying creature with eight arms and three heads!
The creature was surrounded by brilliant divine halos, as if it were a god.
In a trance, the onlookers seemed to see, in an era long past,
a terrifying being roaring towards the sky, looking down on all beneath it. With a single roar, even the stars in the heavens trembled, and the earth shook with endless reverberations!
Everywhere in the image, there were bodies, seemingly slaughtered by this being, with blood flowing like rivers.
This terrifying creature stood amidst the thousands of corpses, like a demon lord from hell.
Yet, this terrifying being was kneeling on the ground, trembling as it bowed continuously before a nearby coffin.
The coffin was ancient, its material unknown, floating in the void, radiating an incomprehensible brilliance.
Blood flowed from the countless corpses on the ground, all converging towards the center, flowing into the coffin, an eerie and mesmerizing sight.
It seemed to conceal an unparalleled god within, and even though it was only depicted on the tablet, the mere image sent chills down one's spine!
A being so powerful, kneeling before an ancient coffin—was it trying to resurrect the being sealed within?
"Divine aura!"
The Supreme Master of the Celestial God Sect gazed at the tablet, his expression moved, even his eyes revealing a trace of joy.
Because on the coffin depicted in the image, he sensed a divine aura, akin to that of a god!
An unparalleled god!
This was the very foundation of the Celestial God Sect, the supreme existence they worshipped and revered.
For a moment, the Supreme Master of the Celestial God Sect even felt an impulse to kneel, to bow before the coffin in reverence.
But in the next moment, his motion to kneel was abruptly stopped, his face turning pale, his gaze filled with shock, as if he had seen something utterly unbelievable!
The ancient tablet seemed to possess a spirit, its image shifting, revealing a new scene.
In this new image, a human powerhouse, enveloped in endless divine halos, descended from the heavens.
He stood on the clouds, surrounded by auspicious light and strange phenomena, exuding an unparalleled aura. His appearance was veiled, impossible to discern.
Beside him, the ancient character for "Emperor" was engraved, marking this human powerhouse's identity!
An ancient emperor!
Above his head floated an ancient bell, dripping with mysterious yellow energy.
He made a move, standing high in the sky, his palm descending toward the terrifying being below, as well as the ancient coffin beside it.
The simple strokes of the image could never capture the true scene, but they depicted the supreme power of this human emperor, displaying his might in full force!
It was impossible to describe the aura he exuded.
With a single strike, the stars trembled, the vast earth quaked, and the entire landscape was shattered!
The terrifying being, akin to a demon lord, tried to resist, but it couldn't even rise, completely suppressed by the force of the emperor's strike, kneeling and motionless!
A glowing, jade-like hand descended from the heavens, containing power beyond imagination, unstoppable, crushing everything in its path!
The terrifying being was reduced to ashes by the aftermath of that single strike.
Even the coffin, which possibly contained an ancient god, was shattered to dust!
With just one palm, everything was crushed, everything was suppressed!
No more terrifying demon-like beings, no more ancient coffins with gods inside—everything turned to ash, erased from existence forever!
