Chapter 216 My son truly deserves to be called the chosen one, a potential emperor!
Deep in the underworld,
The Corpse Emperor, the Prison Suppressor Emperor, and other supreme beings sat around in the hall, the atmosphere so heavy it seemed as if water could drip from it.
The underworld system was created by the Underworld Emperor.
Only those who came after them knew how profound and bizarre this system was.
Those inherited methods, those restrictions buried deep underground,
Everywhere exuded an unsettling atmosphere.
They were terrified that the Underworld Emperor had left some hidden tricks.
How could a strategist who has lived for several eras not leave himself a way out?
The way that "founding master" looks right now... who knows if he's just faking it?
Who knows if he's fishing?
[Fifth inductee: Yao Xi, Holy Maiden of Yao Guang Holy Land!]
[Sixth nominee: Kitahara...]
The selection process for the Heavenly Curtain was still ongoing, but everyone's attention was drawn to the Jade Pool Holy Land.
A series of oppressive auras emanated from afar.
The Western Emperor Tower, suspended above the sacred land of Yaochi, emitted a series of humming sounds.
However, it could not stop so many powerful Emperor-level experts from spying on it.
Those gazes were like knives and swords, as if they wanted to peel off Duan De's skin to see how many secrets were hidden inside.
until--
when--!
Deep within the Purple Mountain, a bell tolled softly.
The bell tolled softly, yet it seemed to strike the hearts of everyone present.
Is the Great Emperor Wushi really still alive?!
Those unbridled prying forces were shattered by the sound of the bell and retreated into their own folds.
In his mind, Ye Fan's hand, which was gripping Duan De's neck, froze in mid-air, his mind blank.
What is that?
This fatso is actually the reincarnation of the Great Emperor?
He looked down at Duan De, whose eyes were rolling back in his head and whose tongue was almost sticking out, and his worldview was shattered.
Moreover—the Source Emperor? The progenitor of the Source Celestial Master lineage?
Wouldn't I then be the great-great ...
Isn't this a joke?
Duan De was also stunned by the message coming from the sky.
Those names flashed through his mind, each one so familiar that it made his heart race.
A fleeting look of reminiscence crossed his face, but he quickly suppressed it.
"Why--"
He suddenly twisted his neck, breaking free from Ye Fan's grasp, straightened his collar, and instantly switched to that smug, lewd expression on his face:
"That's right! I'm not pretending anymore! I'm laying my cards on the table!"
He raised his head, pointing his nostrils at Ye Fan:
"I am your ancestor! Let me go, you unfilial grand-disciple!"
"I believe the Black Emperor is an ancient emperor, but I don't believe your nonsense!"
Ye Fan was so angry that his face turned green:
"Stop talking nonsense and give me back my body!"
He was already somewhat convinced.
But seeing Duan De's demeanor, that bit of confidence vanished instantly.
He raised his fist, ready to punch that smug face.
Suddenly,
The entire sea of consciousness was filled with golden light.
When Ye Fan opened his eyes again, the lewd fat man had disappeared without a trace.
[The tenth entrant: The Stone Emperor, Lord of the Undying Mountain!]
[Teleportation initiated!]
The selection of the ten finalists brought an unparalleled shock to the world of Shrouding the Heavens.
But the actual time spent is only a moment.
As the cold voice fell, ten golden beams of light, piercing the heavens and earth, descended from the sky!
The beam of light was as thick as a mountain peak, its golden light dazzling, and the figures of the ten selected individuals instantly disappeared into the world of "Covering the Sky".
The sky, stretching across the heavens and earth, was also divided into ten scenes.
Everyone's gaze was fixed firmly on the sky.
The ten selected individuals who were teleported to the prehistoric world this time were all quite lucky.
They mainly appear in the core areas of the primordial wilderness.
The spiritual energy was astonishingly abundant, the immortal aura was at its peak, and various great Dao lineages suppressed it from the sides, so there were not many ferocious beasts.
Some landed nervously and cautiously, while others were knocked over by a surge of high-level spiritual energy before they could even get a firm footing.
Many of the selected participants with weaker cultivation levels actually broke through their cultivation realms on the spot.
Duan De was among them...
Outside the sacred site of Yaochi.
A large, black dog with shiny fur and wearing floral shorts looked at Duan De, who was excitedly waving his arms and legs in the sky, and felt nothing but envy, jealousy, and hatred.
"That bastard!"
Black King bared its teeth and pawed at the ground:
"If I hadn't triggered the contingency plan left by the Great Emperor, he would have been captured and dissected for research by those supreme beings from the forbidden zones long ago!"
It stared longingly at the ethereal world shrouded in the sky.
My mouth is watering!
"Such a powerful place must have many important figures."
So many important figures, their burial goods after death... I'm afraid they even had quite a few imperial weapons!
That bastard got off too easy!
Beside him, Gai Jiuyou, with thinning hair and forehead wrinkles that could trap flies, gazed at the sky with a complex expression.
There was envy, but also a sense of solemnity.
The celestial realm, becoming an immortal—that is the lifelong pursuit of countless people.
But he felt that he was destined to be without a chance.
"The emergence of this celestial canopy, whether it is a blessing or a curse, remains to be seen."
He spoke slowly, his voice aged and worried:
"The supreme beings of each forbidden zone have awakened, and I fear... another dark upheaval is about to begin."
But he couldn't stop it; he could only do his best.
When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it.
"Black Emperor, what do you know about Daoist Duan De?"
Gai Jiuyou also developed a strong interest in Duan De's identity.
"Heh, this guy?"
Black Emperor looked on with disdain:
"I never expected this old monster to be hiding so well. Nine Heavens Venerable? Underworld Emperor? He's obviously no good! When he returns, he'll be the first one I deal with!"
He spoke fiercely, but his eyes never left the sky.
Beiyuan, the royal family.
At this moment, everyone was jubilant and overjoyed.
Red lanterns hung throughout the mansion, guests arrived in an endless stream, and gifts piled up like mountains.
"The Ruthless Great Emperor, the Tribulation-Transcending Heavenly Venerable, the Stone Emperor... My son was chosen to enter the Primordial World along with them, which proves that my son is indeed the chosen one and has the potential to become a Great Emperor!"
Wang Chengkun, the head of the Wang family, stood in the center of the main hall.
His face was flushed, and he was shouting at the top of his lungs, as if he wanted the whole world to hear him:
"When he returns, he will surely make further progress, and may even reach the Great Emperor realm!"
"Hmph, a Great Perfection Holy Body? A useless physique destined to never become an Emperor. In the end, it probably won't even be worthy of carrying my son's shoes!"
Previously, Wang Teng was defeated by Ye Fan at the Yaochi Grand Gathering, and his Dao Heart was shattered.
Devastated,
This caused him to lose face, and the entire Wang family's prestige also plummeted.
He wished he could tear Ye Fan to pieces, but unfortunately, the brat escaped every time he sent elders to surround and kill him.
This time,
Wang Teng's selection for the Primordial Era is a huge honor for him!
Inside the Wang family's villa,
The Crane Taoist, however, was not so excited.
He was Wang Teng's mentor, having lived from the era of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor to the present day, and had witnessed the rise and fall of too many prodigies.
Wang Teng was the one he had his eye on.
Both in terms of qualifications and background, they perfectly align with the Dao of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor.
But ever since he was defeated by Ye Fan, the boy has been despondent, which makes him feel uneasy.
He seems... a bit useless.
Wang Teng was indeed eager to pursue the Tao and persevered through setbacks when he was young.
But he paved the way for everything, and things went too smoothly, which was contrary to the way of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor.
That's why I'm unable to get over my inner demons for so long.
"Primordial Wonderland..."
The Crane Taoist gazed at the sky and murmured to himself:
"Hopefully, that place will provide you with ample opportunities for growth. This is an opportunity that even the Great Emperor wouldn't dare to dream of..."
