No entity, not even a True Immortal King, could offer any resistance before a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.
The difference between this world and the original Perfect World was something only those who had visited both could truly comprehend.
Beyond that, even if a traverser arrived in this world, unless they, like Fang Ming, had researched the destructive power of each realm, they would likely mistake it for the original Perfect World.
The true Immortal Emperors of this realm would, in all likelihood, have a vast disparity in power compared to Quasi-Immortal Emperors.
Following this line of reasoning, Fang Ming was almost certain he was no match for this world's Corpse Immortal Emperor.
Even a weakened Immortal Emperor, when transported to the original Perfect World, would fall short of even the original Quasi-Immortal Emperors. However, they would at least be equivalent to a supreme giant of the original Immortal King realm.
Fang Ming, with his peak Immortal King cultivation, was naturally no match for such a being.
However, dealing with the Corpse Immortal Emperor was actually quite simple. At this moment, the Corpse Immortal Emperor's primordial spirit and physical body were not yet reunited, and he was still in slumber. As long as he was not awakened, Fang Ming could ensure he remained in slumber forever.
There was no need to confront him directly.
Fang Ming explained his solution to the Desolate Heaven Emperor.
"What? The Corpse Immortal Emperor suppressed himself? In a distant era, he separated a portion of his primordial spirit and his physical body."
"Therefore, as long as his primordial spirit and body are not reunited, there is no danger?"
Upon hearing this, the Desolate Heaven Emperor's eyes widened. He had never imagined that dealing with a true Immortal Emperor could be so simple.
Fang Ming nodded.
He knew that in the Perfect World's original storyline, although the Corpse Immortal Emperor was a true Immortal Emperor, his state was not right.
Not only was his body contaminated by the power of dark blood, but he had also separated a portion of his pure primordial spirit and sealed it in a rotten wooden box.
In this manner, he separated his body and primordial spirit, suppressing them individually!
In the original storyline, the Corpse Immortal Emperor only regained his full Immortal Emperor power because his primordial spirit and body merged!
Therefore, to deal with him, one simply needed to prevent their fusion!
It was that simple!
Even more coincidentally, the artifact containing the Corpse Immortal Emperor's pure primordial spirit, that rotten wooden box, was with the Desolate Heaven Emperor.
It was just that the Desolate Heaven Emperor himself was unaware, and the primordial spirit within that rotten wooden box had not yet regained its consciousness.
When Fang Ming explained the situation, the Desolate Heaven Emperor was indeed greatly surprised.
He had no idea that a portion of a true Immortal Emperor's pure primordial spirit resided within the rotten wooden box he carried with him at all times.
Given the gravity of the situation, compared to the matter of the Immortal Emperor, the Hong Emperor and the World-Ending Elder could be dealt with at any time.
The Desolate Heaven Emperor and Fang Ming, using their boundless magical power and divine abilities, awakened the pure primordial spirit within the rotten wooden box.
Before being corrupted by the dark blood, the Corpse Immortal Emperor was actually of good character.
It was only after being contaminated by the dark blood that he turned wicked!
This portion of pure primordial spirit was, in fact, the Immortal Emperor from before being corrupted by the dark blood power, possessing an entirely opposite personality to the Corpse Body deep within the Ultimate Ancient Land.
He was a venerable senior.
After the primordial spirit within the rotten wooden box was awakened,
The Desolate Heaven Emperor and Fang Ming vaguely saw, within the wooden box, what appeared to be a divine palace, and a humanoid being seated within it.
He was enveloped in true Imperial Dao laws, laws exclusive to the Immortal Emperor realm, incomparable to those of a few Quasi-Immortal Emperors.
Upon being awakened and hearing Fang Ming and the Desolate Heaven Emperor's plan,
The primordial spirit within the rotten wooden box adopted a rather pessimistic attitude.
This being spoke, "Juniors, even if you do not bring me to the Ultimate Ancient Land."
"You will not be able to avert a catastrophe in the Sea of Realms!"
"It is because my suppression methods from back then are gradually failing, and the attraction of my physical body is growing stronger."
"Even if you do not actively bring me to the Ultimate Ancient Land to merge with the Corpse Body, I will eventually be pulled there and forcibly merged."
"At that time, a true Dark Immortal Emperor will appear!"
The Desolate Heaven Emperor frowned and said, "Is this process irreversible? Where in the Sea of Realms can one avoid being pulled by him?"
The Desolate Heaven Emperor had thought they had found a solution, but he hadn't expected that, according to the explanation from the rotten wooden box, even if he didn't go to the Ultimate Ancient Land, they could not escape the calamity.
It was just that compared to active fusion, the time would be greatly prolonged!
But the Sea of Realms would ultimately face a catastrophe!
The primordial spirit within the rotten wooden box replied, "No matter where one is located in the Sea of Realms, they cannot escape the attraction of my Corpse Body, and fusion will occur sooner or later."
"Juniors, you had best achieve true Immortal Emperor status within this time frame, so that you can contend with me, corrupted by darkness, otherwise..."
Fang Ming interrupted, "What if your primordial spirit is not in the Sea of Realms? Would there still be an attraction?"
The primordial spirit within the rotten wooden box paused, then said, "Juniors, are you suggesting bringing me to the Upper Above? To evade fusion?"
"I feel that even if I were in the Upper Above, I would not escape the attraction of my Corpse Body."
"Moreover, my Corpse Body is blocking the entrance to the Upper Above."
The primordial spirit's words were very clear.
Putting aside the question of whether one could escape the attraction even in the true Upper Above.
The Corpse Body itself was blocking the passage to the Upper Above, so how could one enter the Upper Above? It was likely that before even entering, due to being too close to the Corpse Body, one would be forcibly merged by him!
Wasn't this like a lamb walking into a tiger's den?
At this moment, the Desolate Heaven Emperor also reacted. He looked at Fang Ming with anticipation.
Fang Ming smiled, "Senior, I am not referring to the Upper Above, but a martial arts world called Tian Long."
"I can guarantee that once you go there, Senior, you will no longer be attracted by the Corpse Body!"
"Please accompany me."
Desolate Heaven Emperor: "..."
Primordial spirit within the rotten wooden box: "..."
Fang Ming and the Desolate Heaven Emperor then took the rotten wooden box and went to the vicinity of the teleportation array where Fang Ming had initially descended.
Fang Ming said to the Desolate Heaven Emperor, "I will now take this Senior's primordial spirit to a remote small realm, thereby averting a catastrophe for the Sea of Realms."
"You need not worry about the Corpse Immortal Emperor anymore."
After speaking, Fang Ming entered the teleportation array.
...
Shallow Sea Region.
In the boundless void sea, there exists a world.
The Tian Long World!
This fictional world is composed of one sun and eight major planets!
That is to say, it is only the size of a solar system!
In this fictional world, the sun initially accounts for 99.86% of the total mass of the solar system.
In this fictional world, 99.86% of the energy is contained within the star, the sun!
Among the eight major planets, the third planet, Earth, has a volume and mass that is one-thirty-millionth of the sun.
On Earth, many continents have not been developed and are sparsely populated.
Only in the Far East of the Eurasian continent are there countries like Song, Dali, and Liao.
All these countries belong to the cold weapon era.
