Chapter 1

Dong dong dong~

Vast and low-pitched booming sounds rang out like drumbeats, as if space-time was trembling, or the heart of an unparalleled existence was beating.

Formless and intangible void rippled in layers, and the rushing light streams converged between heaven and earth, gradually transforming into a profound and far-reaching jade road.

Divine light intertwined, like a golden bridge spanning between existence and non-existence.

A figure walked slowly from above the golden bridge. With each step, the vast heaven and earth of the cave trembled and surged, and a brilliant and mighty aura covered the sky and the earth.

In that instant, the heavens and the earth seemed to dim, and everyone's attention was drawn to this figure.

"That is..."

In the Ruohai Spirit Field, Yang Jian stared at the long sky. A dragon-shaped vertical紋 between his eyebrows glowed, allowing him to see a corner behind the divine light.

Gold-carved dragon-patterned boots, plain yellow dragon-tendon belt, and a divine sword that seemed to be surrounded by dragons.

A crimson imperial robe with the shapes of mountains and seas and the shadows of stars, and indifferent, emotionless eyes beneath the twelve-column冕旒.

His steps could not be described as dragon strides and tiger steps; it was more like he was trampling the heavens and earth under his feet. His aura was heavy and majestic, and between lowered eyes, divine might was like a prison, like an abyss.

Within the cave, hundreds of beasts were terrified. All living beings with opened spiritual awareness, regardless of their cultivation strength, felt a shudder from the bottom of their hearts.

"This, what kind of divine power is this?"

Gongyang Yan clutched the big flowered donkey tightly, his heart in a panic.

In the past twenty years, his cultivation progress could be described as astonishing. He crossed several thresholds in succession and cultivated various divine powers. Compared to back then, he was more than ten times stronger.

But at this moment, just by feeling that aura, his mana actually had a tendency to lose control, as if his mana was terrified and submitting.

"Imperial Extremity Dharma Body, heaven-shattering sword intent... This is, Long Xingyi!"

On the Dao platform intertwined with raging fire, Zeng San's pupils shrank, and he had already recognized the person walking on the golden bridge.

It was none other than the uncrowned king of the Great Zhou for ten thousand years, the Great Zhou太子 whose talent and understanding were rumored to be even greater than his father's, and who had long cultivated the supreme Imperial Extremity Shocking World great divine power.

Yu封禁’...What use are the few 毛神 you arranged? I can destroy them with a flip of my hand!"

On the golden bridge, Long Xingyi walked with his hand on his sword, seemingly looking up, but giving people the feeling of overlooking all things:

"If these are all your tricks, I'm afraid you won't be able to turn the world upside down."

His tone was calm as he walked forward slowly.

Long Xingyi's eyes were calm. The reappearance of the five-colored divine light was of great importance, so naturally, he couldn't ignore it. For the past twenty years, he had been paying attention to the changes in the world.

For nearly forty thousand years, the Jingye Si had been laying the groundwork generation after generation. In addition to the existence of the Great Zhou cartography, although he couldn't claim to know the Great Zhou world like the back of his hand, very few things could escape his deliberate investigation.

The so-called gods that had appeared in various places in the world in the past twenty years were all within his grasp. The reason he hadn't acted was that he was waiting for this Hongxuan Daoist to show himself.

"These gods are indeed his work!"

Zeng San's brow furrowed, and the suspicion in the depths of his eyes deepened.

If these gods were him, then the purple aura he had glimpsed with the Celestial望气术...

"In that case, should I thank you for showing mercy?"

On the Dao platform, An Qisheng shook his head and smiled: "If it were that simple, why would this Zhang司主 seek him out so desperately, and still take action even after being defeated several times?"

The True Spirit Seat Chart was the culmination of his cultivation, outwardly displaying various gods and inwardly containing various Daos. If the Dao existed, the gods would not perish.

If he could really destroy them with a flip of his hand, why would he go to so much trouble?

"太子..."

On the Dao platform, feeling the gaze cast from beneath the sky, Zhang Fengfu's throat蠕动ed, wanting to speak but stopping.

He had also tried to capture those gods, but those gods gathered and dispersed without form, seemingly existing and not existing. Even if he personally took action, he would return empty-handed.

If that weren't the case, he wouldn't have tracked this Hongxuan Daoist for more than ten years, to the point of being trapped and having to send a message for others to rescue him.

"There may be experts who suddenly appear in the world, but there are definitely no gods and immortals without a root!"

After arriving in the cave, Long Xingyi stopped, looking directly at the Daoist sitting cross-legged in the great sun: "Rumors are never without cause. I would like to know, who exactly are you that Zhuge is creating momentum for you?"

Suddenly appearing in the world, without a root.

This situation could barely be accepted by ordinary people with limited access to information, but for Long Xingyi, who controlled the strongest intelligence organization in the world, it was not so.

Living between heaven and earth, whether it was cultivation or anything else, there were traces to follow.

If things were abnormal, there must be demons!

This Hongxuan Daoist came from a small sect, his understanding and talent were mediocre, but he was reborn in a day and was able to surpass Zhang Fengfu's ten thousand years of cultivation.

This could no longer be explained by a mere lucky encounter.

For the past twenty years, he had been sitting quietly in the imperial court, using great divine powers to peer into the past and present, and browsing the years. He had faintly discovered something unusual.

"Hmm?"

An Qisheng's heart stirred, his smile faded, and he said lightly, "Who does Your Excellency think I am?"

Heaven and earth were like a net, and all things were within it. Every move had feedback. Anyone who embarked on an unusual path would inevitably be noticed.

An Qisheng was well aware of this, but this Great Zhou太子 seemed to have other ideas in mind...

"Since the Divine Era Laws were spread throughout the world, myriad spirits have risen together. Before this dynasty, there were countless strong individuals and geniuses among the myriad races. There were many outstanding people, but there were not many who could truly be called unparalleled..."

Long Xingyi spoke calmly, without joy or anger, not like he was talking to a great enemy, but more like he was discussing the Dao with a friend.

On the Dao platform, An Qisheng's eyes moved slightly, even less anxious: "I would like to hear the details."

"太子..."

Zhang Fengfu deeply exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, his mind沉凝ed, and began to circulate his mana, warming his nearly exhausted body.

"During the Divine Era, the Divine Emperor passed down the laws to the myriad races, and cultivation flourished. The human race rose up, and reached its peak before the Great Xia Dynasty..."

Long Xingyi stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes沉凝ed: "Apart from the few who were born before heaven and earth and could not be described, the 太祖 believed that there should be ten people who were unparalleled experts born after heaven and earth.

Therefore, the 太祖 listed the Ten Kings of Divine Powers. If someone could really ‘shatter the heavens’, it must be among these ten!"

"Ten Kings of Divine Powers."

An Qisheng remained noncommittal, but Zeng San's heart stirred. These two both had the inheritance of the Kings of Divine Powers in their hands.

"The 太祖爷 once discussed the world with various strong individuals. The first one he listed was the leader of the seven great saints of the demon race, the one who held the 'Heavenly Demon屠圣'. This one was ruthless in killing, and took action much more often than the others. Of course, he also died early."

As he said this, Long Xingyi shook his head slightly: "That one had a strong character, and even when he cultivated to the Great Saint, he still did not transform into human form. I think even if he had not died, he would not show himself in human form..."

"Heavenly Demon屠圣?"

An Qisheng felt something. Long Xingyi did not stop, and continued: "And the one who held the first of the Ten Great Divine Powers, the one who could be called the first among the ten, and even the first throughout the ages, that old Buddha of Sumeru, seems to have not passed away, so Your Excellency naturally cannot be him.

Five-colored divine light, vast long river, Dingyi Dragon-Shape Three Three Style, and Imperial Extremity Shocking World can naturally be ruled out one by one..."

Long Xingyi's tone fluctuated, sometimes high, sometimes low, but this was not intentional on his part. Rather, some words would disappear once they were spoken.

Those who knew would know, and those who did not would never be able to glean this information from the words of others.

"太子殿下 seems to highly praise that old Buddha of Sumeru, but the first throughout the ages is an overstatement."

Before An Qisheng could speak, Zeng San seemed unable to help himself and interrupted Long Xingyi, saying in a deep voice:

"Master Confucius辟道开宗, Confucianism is a prominent school of the world. Even if that old Buddha is extremely strong, he is only a follower of the tail end of seeking sagehood. How can he be compared to someone who 辟道?!"

"Old Master Zeng, you are mistaken."

Zeng San had never met Long Xingyi, but Long Xingyi recognized him. Hearing this, he was not angry, and still said lightly: "The two Kongs were listed side by side back then, the five-colored divine light was no match for the Seven Treasures妙树, and the vast long river was naturally no match either..."

"That is not necessarily true!"

Zeng San shook his head, seemingly having great aversion to that old Buddha, or perhaps it involved his ancestral master, and he had to argue:

"That old Buddha was indeed extremely strong, but how does he compare to the Supreme Sage? The five-colored divine light came from his sect, as did the Heavenly Demon屠圣, the Dingyi Dragon-Shape Three Three Style, and the Divine Ghost Eight Arrays Diagram. Even the Imperial Extremity Shocking World seems to be related to him! Half of the Ten Great Divine Powers may be related to him. If we are talking about first place, it should be him!"

"Hahaha."

Hearing this, Long Xingyi sneered:

"Strength and weakness have always been clear. If something is lacking, it is lacking! Back then, the Seven Treasures妙树 broke the Dingyi Dragon-Shape Three Three Style first, and then broke the Heavenly Demon屠圣 within ten days. The five-colored divine light existed until the last dynasty, but no one knew about it. But that Great Xia先圣, the Ancestor of Earth Immortals, also disappeared from then on. Why bother to say more about victory or defeat?"

"太祖爷 compared himself to those nine, which had the suspicion of gilding. This太子 does not care, why should Master Zeng care about these passing clouds? True strength and weakness have nothing to do with ancestors, only with oneself!"

Having said this, Long Xingyi said no more. He suddenly raised his head, and a brilliant divine light burst out from his indifferent eyes, shooting straight at the斗牛 constellation:

"Although Your Excellency presents himself with five colors, it is likely a false appearance! If you are truly among these ten, I can suspect that you are that ‘Great Xia先圣’ ‘Ancestor of Earth Immortals’!"

Rumble!

The sound waves cascaded down, like ten thousand thunders exploding.

It was as if someone had touched forbidden words.

The earth-shattering roar that erupted in an instant spread throughout the entire cave. Amidst the rumbling echoes, it seemed that everything in existence would be destroyed along with this space.

Outside the cave,蟠龙城 shook violently. The residents of the city were all startled and suddenly looked up. They saw dark clouds rolling in over the long sky, with lightning flashing and thunder running.

An indescribable aura of肅殺 pressed down, and the city was in an uproar.

"Great Xia先圣!"

Zhang Fengfu suddenly opened his eyes, looking at the Dao platform in the raging fire, his heart filled with suspicion: "How is that possible?!"

Zeng San was also completely moved. His primordial spirit trembled, and the injuries he had tried so hard to suppress almost boiled over.

Great Xia先圣, Ancestor of Earth Immortals!

Legend has it that before the Great Xia Dynasty opened, a divine man descended from the sky, enlightened Da Yu amidst the endless flames of war, and opened the first truly unified imperial dynasty.

He passed down the laws to the world, and all his disciples were unparalleled heroes. Even in ancient history, they had shone with indelible brilliance.

This Daoist?

How is that possible!
