Great Wilderness.

As soon as this name appeared, all the forbidden areas in the Extreme Imperial Realm turned their gaze toward Changsheng Tianzun, in the direction of the Immortal Mausoleum.

Because they were all shaken by the three words: Great Desolate Emperor.

They were also astonished that Changsheng Tianzun dared to openly praise his true name.

"Longevity Tianzun, how dare you..." The Ancient Golden Emperor took a deep breath and looked at him with disbelief.

These short three words were taboo—absolutely forbidden to speak in this desolate age.

In this era, history before the Ancient Era has long since blurred, damaged, and fragmented.

No one truly knows what transpired before the Ancient Era, nor why the Immortal Ascension Road was severed.

But who are these beings?

They are former Great Emperors—figures who have lived for countless centuries, slaughtered themselves for the sake of Immortal Ascension, and have long slumbered in the forbidden lands of death.

They are among the few who still retain a sliver of knowledge about that prior epoch.

Longevity Tianzun smiled lightly. "Don't be so tense. How many epochs has it been since the Great Desolate Emperor disappeared? If he were still alive, with his temperament, he would have personally emerged to quell the black disasters we launched before."

The Golden Ancient Emperor, Wanlong Ancient Emperor, and other Extreme Emperors were visibly shaken by these words.

"You mean to say," the You Ji Dao Emperor asked solemnly, "that Huang Na and those other peerless existences who shook the past and present have all fallen on the Immortal Path?"

Longevity Tianzun nodded faintly. "Of course they have."

The Extreme Emperors all looked at one another in astonishment.

At that moment, Longevity Tianzun laughed and said, "Enough of this. The Immortal Ascension Road has reopened. This time, we will launch the most powerful black disaster in history—plundering the essence of life, becoming emperors again, and stepping onto the Immortal Path!"

"Now that the grand trend has been completed, it is time to unleash extreme evil."

Upon hearing this, many of the Extreme Emperors nodded in agreement.

Dare to ask the heavens—are there immortals?

This question has echoed in the hearts of countless Great Emperors since time immemorial.

Perhaps in this golden era, the answer will at last be revealed.

"Then let us begin," said the Lord of Shenxu coldly.

Boom!

In an instant, the seven Forbidden Lands of Death trembled simultaneously.

Cracks split open from the seven regions, including Shenxu, the Immortal Mausoleum, and the Ancient Mine of the Primordial Age.

One by one, the Dao Emperors, exuding rotten and deathly auras, stepped out of these forbidden zones.

On this day, the black catastrophe of the Extreme Path descended once more.

Across all the realms, the rankings connected to the Supreme Sage Emperor World had reached their conclusion.

The powerhouses of the heavens and worlds did not have to wait long.

From the rankings of all the heavens and myriad realms, the seventh world finally began to reveal its image.

For some reason, the screen was entirely gray.

In this gray world, it was nothing but an empty void.

Here, there was no time, no space, and no matter.

It was as if this place was the origin of all realms—the source of the great river of existence.

No words could truly describe this domain.

No river of time, no laws of the Great Dao—none of it existed here.

Amid this void, a terrifying being with long crimson hair, flowing black blood, and exuding an aura of strange and ominous terror, lay silently.

He merely lay there, and it was enough to deliver an indescribable sense of overwhelming pressure.

It felt as though all realms and heavens were nothing but mere dust in his grasp.

A single drop of his blood could annihilate eternal Immortal beings with ease.

Rot and corruption blanketed this terrifying and invincible existence.

At the moment this image appeared, all the powerhouses across the heavens and realms drew sharp breaths.

Though the figure did not move, simply lying there, all felt an unprecedented terror rising in their hearts.

"This is…?"

In the World of the Universe, Shen Lian's expression changed as he stared at the image.

From beginning to end, his demeanor had remained calm, but now, for the first time, his expression turned solemn.

That blurry, unseen face of the mysterious figure released a pressure unlike anything he had ever encountered.

This pressure even surpassed the nameless existence on the far side of the Boundary Sea, with whom Shen Lian once battled across time and space.

Just by this alone, the rank of this world had already far exceeded all previous ones.

Suddenly, the image on the heavens' ranking screen changed.

That invincible, terrifying figure—wrapped in rot and death—self-immolated.

He placed his remains into a stone jar, sealed the jar into a three-layered copper coffin, and then buried the coffin upon a plateau.

Thus ended the era of that unparalleled powerhouse.

Countless years passed.

Suddenly, a thunderous rumble shook the skies.

In the boundless chaos, a bolt of Chaos Divine Thunder crashed down!

The plateau where the copper coffin was hidden collapsed, and the coffin containing that fearsome being re-emerged.

The ashes inside the stone jar scattered into the winds.

Time moved on.

No one knew how many ages passed.

Then, six Great Ancestors appeared upon that plateau.

They discovered the secret of the three-layered copper coffin and were contaminated by the ashes, gaining strange and formidable powers.

These six ancestors are based on three-layer copper coffins, creating sarcophagi in addition to their ancestral land. In this land, these six ancestors are eternal immortals who can never die and can be resurrected infinitely! With the ability of infinite resurrection, they dominate the earth, and to advance their cultivation, they launch a dark invasion to destroy the gods and sacrifice the common people, attempting to summon the fallen ominous powerhouse. A catastrophe of the heavens and the world is upon us! Countless strong men fall into this catastrophe. A barrier between Immortal World and God is shattered in this chaos.

At the end of the world sea, in the endless darkness, the huge figure who had once fought with Shen Lian across the years watches this scene. A look of struggle suddenly appears in his dark eyes, but soon, this struggle is overwhelmed by the darkness in his eyes. The huge figure lays down again, falling into the calm darkness.

In the picture of the ranking of the heavens and the world, time flows rapidly, and gray-white pictures flash quickly. Often before anyone can take a closer look, the picture has already flashed by. The Immortal Ancient Era arrives, where immortals come to the world, endless longevity, and immortality—an age of prosperity in cultivation! In the chaotic era, the world changes drastically, and there is no more Immortal Ascension. Only one Great Desolate Emperor, suspected of Immortal Ascension, leaves behind the immortal "Desolate Heaven Tower."

The era changes again and comes to the ancient era. In this era, the rules of heaven and earth are lacking, and no one can ascend to immortality. Countless people spend their entire lives wondering if immortals truly exist. "Dare to ask, God, is there an immortal?" Countless practitioners of power, before sitting down, raise their heads to ask the sky, laughing miserably. In this era, the strongest practitioner is the Great Emperor! There can only be one Great Emperor at any given time, and after becoming an emperor, one gains the imprint of the Heavenly Heart, the rules of the emperor's way, and is honored throughout the universe. However, despite the Great Emperor's invincibility, their lifespan is only tens of thousands of years. Every Great Emperor seeks the way of immortality, fighting the path of Immortal Ascension, searching for the possibility of Immortal Ascension for the world.

Alchemical Great Emperors, Demon Emperors, and others fall on the road of Immortal Ascension from generation to generation, composing countless bloody tragic songs! Until one day, some Great Emperor-level powerhouses calculate that the Immortal Ascension Road will open in the future, enabling ascension to the Immortal Domain, but their life force will be exhausted. Therefore, they choose to cut themselves off and fall back to the Great Emperor Realm, becoming the ultimate emperor. They seal themselves in the Immortal Source to prolong their lifespan, and the self-proclaimed land of the Supreme Emperor becomes the forbidden land of death.

With time, when some extreme emperors can no longer maintain their lives, they launch the extreme black disaster, absorbing the essence of life from major life planets to sustain themselves. The extremists, once protectors of all living beings, eventually fall into demons. The era that once belonged to them has passed, and the original intentions they once adhered to are gone. Immortal Ascension becomes their only obsession.

"The thirty emperors of all ages—how many saints and sages are lost to the dust? The real Great Emperors... all died." Countless people sigh.

When the Jidao Emperor launched the Jidao Black Disaster, had a Great Emperor been alive, they would have desperately suppressed it. But the Jidao Emperor was also an emperor in the past. The screen keeps accelerating.

"Who stands at the peak of the Immortal road, when Wu Shidao turns to emptiness?" The Starry Sky Great Emperor suppressed the Undead Mountain turmoil, the Hengyu Great Emperor suppressed the Taigu Chu Mine turmoil, and the Wu Shi Great Emperor suppressed the world's extreme emperors. As emperors, they protect the living beings of all races and save the people from destruction.

"Oh? This is our world?" A leaf in the world of Shrouding the Heavens. Having walked out of the forbidden area of Death, he looks at the picture on the ranking list of the heavens and the world with surprise in his eyes. At the beginning, when the picture on the ancient golden list was played, they couldn't understand it. But as the screen continues to play and time flows backward, they finally recognize that this is their world being shown.

"Humph, Wu Shi, Xingxing, Hengyu!" You Ji Dao Emperor looks at Wu Shi Great Emperor and other beings flashing across the screen, and a cold light flashes in his eyes. Wu Shi was the enemy in their hearts. Shaking his head, he stops thinking about it. Whether it is Wu Shi Great Emperor or Hengyu Great Emperor, they belong to the past. Today, they are the rulers of this world.

The next moment, they cannot help but think of the image of the Immortal Immortal King entering the world in the Xiangu Era. "Xiangu Era... there are immortals! There really are immortals! The Immortal Ascension road is not false!" Thinking of this image, many extreme emperors' eyes fill with ecstasy, and they laugh joyously, tears streaming down their faces. For thousands of years, they slashed themselves and sealed themselves in the Immortal Source, waiting for the opening of the Immortal Ascension Road. Today, the ancient golden list's images confirm it: immortals really existed!

"This time, the road to Immortal Ascension opens again. I've waited a thousand years; it's bound to be Immortal Ascension!" The Lord of the Ruins, the Immortal Emperor, Wanlong Ancient Emperor, Dapeng Ancient Emperor, and others laugh with excitement.

"Everyone, let's get started!"

The next moment, they transform into several streamers, sweeping toward different star fields. A catastrophe begins! This time, the extreme black disaster is far more destructive than ever before! Now, seeing the hope of Immortal Ascension, these extreme emperors are completely insane!

The screen's flow slows down as the original gray and white picture becomes clear.

In the blink of an eye, the final images appear. Nine gigantic dragon corpses, like the Immortal Great Wall stretching for thousands of miles, drag an ancient bronze coffin and slowly move through the starry sky. The nine dragon corpses are all 10,000 meters long, connected by thick black iron ropes that stretch into the dark universe behind them, holding a bronze coffin. The giant rope is thick, long, and strong, with a cold black light.

The bronze coffin is simple, unadorned, with some vague ancient patterns. Full of the vicissitudes of years, it has drifted through the universe for an unknown time.

Kowloon pulls the coffin.

In this dark, icy universe, the nine dragon corpses and the giant bronze coffin, connected by thick black iron cables, are a shocking sight. Eventually, the nine dragon corpses bring the coffin to a place called the Northern Dipper Star Field.

A young man in modern clothes stumbles out of the coffin. The original gray and white picture is now completely bright and clear.

"Ye Heishou! The person in this picture is you!" Outside the forbidden area of Death, the big black dog pats Ye Heishou on the shoulder, excited.

Ye Heishou is stunned. He didn't expect this ranking of the heavens and the world to broadcast the picture of his arrival in the Northern Dipper Star Field.

"Uh... what if it's me?" Ye Heishou touches his nose, sighing.

"Ye Heishou! With your head, I really don't know how you've survived this long!" The big black dog is speechless, then says, "Haven't you seen it? Those who appear on the ranking screen are usually the sons of destiny, the ones who reshape the world for an era! This means you're likely one of our destined sons!"

"So what?" Ye Heishou smiles bitterly. He looks up at the endless universe. The powerhouses in the extreme imperial realm of the seven Death forbidden areas have emerged, causing a slaughter across the sky. The endless star fields have turned into a Shura field, and the life essence of each creature is absorbed by these extreme emperors. Within hours, the entire Star Territory is covered in corpses.

Even though Ye Heishou, now a top fighter in his generation, has made a great name in this ancient era, he is still no match for the extreme emperor realm.

If you don't become an emperor, everything is empty.

The big black dog is stunned, then, like a furious furball, his face becomes depressed. He looks at the extreme emperors causing the slaughter and mutters to himself, "If my human race still had a Great Emperor, how dare these extreme emperors be so arrogant?"

The picture of the heavens and the world continues. That young man, Ye Heishou, Dou Tianjiao, War Saint, steps on Wang Teng's immortal posture and fights against his old enemy, the Cangtian hegemony! Finally, the picture reaches the present day in Shrouding the Heavens!

The birth of the major Death forbidden areas, and the extreme emperors, are broadcast live by the ancient gold list! In an instant, the heavens and the world are in an uproar!
