Chapter 1355: Emperor Arrives at Beidou

Chapter 1357: The Human Emperor Arrives at Big Dipper

The Human Emperor has revived, reappearing in the world! His form was tall, his voice majestic, shaking the world. All heavens trembled, the souls of all living beings resonated, and the stars across the sky seemed poised to fall.

This was an awe-inspiring power, unprecedented in history. The Human Emperor stood tall and imposing, his black hair cascading over his shoulders, his eyes reflecting the solitude of ages.

All the Saints knelt in deference. This was an irresistible aura of majesty, like ants facing the bright moon, or mortals before a deity, inspiring an innate reverence.

As they prostrated themselves, their hearts pounded, their emotions like raging tides, unable to calm down. They simply couldn't believe they were truly in the presence of the Human Emperor.

This was a figure from eons past, whose legends permeated the entire universe. He surpassed all ancients and contemporaries, unmatched in his generation, having ushered in the glorious era of humanity.

His scriptures expounded upon the most fundamental secrets of heaven and earth, and to this day, they remain the most renowned foundational scriptures of the human race. Even later Great Emperors drew upon and referenced them.

Especially his combat prowess, which truly astonished gods and made immortals weep. Unrivaled and solitary through the ages, he fought across the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands without meeting an equal, and walked the path to immortality in lonely solitude.

"Greetings, Human Emperor!" It was unclear who spoke first, but everyone in the entire starry sky shouted in unison, their voices rising and falling, reverberating across the cosmos, a continuous chorus of reverence.

"How many Emperors and Sovereigns, past and present, have turned to dust..." The Human Emperor gazed towards the distant starry expanse, a hint of loneliness in his supreme majesty.

Everyone was deeply moved, infected by this emotion, and for a moment, they found themselves unable to speak.

This was not the true Lunar Emperor, but merely a wisp of his true spirit's will, a momentary awakening, manifesting in the human realm, yet capable of suppressing all the myriad ways of the heavens.

People found it hard to imagine what kind of majesty and presence the true Human Emperor would possess if he were to appear!

In this place, heaven and earth were silent, the Great Dao ebbed and flowed, and all the rules and order of the cosmos were trampled beneath his feet. Only the Lunar Emperor was the sole presence in heaven and earth.

Wisps of dao traces intertwined and wailed, and all the paths revered by mortals trembled in his presence!

The Human Emperor, with a hint of sorrow, his gaze sweeping across millennia, instantly comprehended everything before him. With a soft sigh, he acknowledged that countless ages had passed, and this was no longer his era.

The human-faced ghost lamp beside Ye Fan dimmed. In the Human Emperor's presence, even dragons would coil, and phoenixes would crouch. All divine artifacts were suppressed.

The Lunar Emperor was a god-like man, heroic and towering, his black hair flowing freely, displaying the majestic bearing of his youth. His eyes could see through everything.

He stared, lost in thought, at an artifact within Ye Fan's body. Others didn't know, but Ye Fan understood: the Human Emperor was looking at the broken green copper cauldron.

At this moment, the green copper block emitted a faint glow without leaving Ye Fan's body, enduring immense pressure and autonomously resisting the Human Emperor's might. It was precisely for this reason that only Ye Fan remained unbowed.

The Human Emperor stood in the starry sky, radiating an aura that would chill even the Great Saints of all heavens, filling everyone with awe and emotion. Even the Dao Protectors prostrated themselves.

Although Ye Fan did not kneel, he still performed a great salutation. This was a show of respect for the Human Emperor, an admiration for his supreme achievements, and an act of reverence.

"Has it reached another crossroads? Will anyone attain immortality in this era?" The tall figure murmured to himself, causing the entire cosmic starry sky to rumble and tremble because of him.

The Dao Protectors were greatly alarmed, and the Saints trembled in fear. The Human Emperor spoke of attaining immortality, declaring this great era, this period in time, a crossroads!

His gaze was profound as he looked towards the Big Dipper Starfield, then he took a step and departed directly.

"Human Emperor!"

All the Saints cried out, but he showed no reaction. With a single step, stars shifted, as if tens of thousands of years had passed.

His speed was astonishingly fast; he traversed the cosmos directly, vanishing from this starry region in an instant, heading towards the Big Dipper Starfield.

He was no longer merely a divine thought; he now possessed wisps of the majesty of ancient Great Emperors. The divine powers he could unleash surpassed all common sense, making even Great Saints struggle to gaze upon him.

The Human Emperor transformed into a streak of immortal light, piercing through the void, like an ascended immortal. Even the Dao Protectors were shaken, silently bowing in farewell.

It was truly too fast; time seemed to reverse, the river of time appeared to be in chaos. "Ascending to the heavens in a blaze of light" was insufficient to describe the grandeur of this moment.

The Blood Buddha dimmed, its host gone. The Hegemon was terrified, his face pale, utterly devoid of color, as he stared blankly at the Human Emperor's departure.

From beginning to end, the towering figure never spared him a glance, nor did he pay attention to the blood altar, leaving the young supreme of the Sky Hegemon Bloodline feeling utterly hollow inside.

The aura of the ancient Great Emperor vanished. The starry sky returned to tranquility, and the flow of the Dao became normal again, no longer suppressed.

It was unknown how much time had passed, but people awakened, and then erupted in a clamor. This place became a scene of immense excitement. Witnessing the manifestation of the Ancient Lunar Emperor today was incredibly shocking for them.

"The Human Emperor has gone to the Emperor Burial Star! Something significant must be happening there. If we could perceive it, perhaps we would witness a miracle!"

No one could remain calm; all were restless, eager to rush to the other side of the starry sky immediately.

The Emperor Burial Star: over the years, countless experts from various starfields had arrived, constantly contending, all awaiting the opening of the Path to Immortality.

Upon approaching this great star, one could feel a terrifying aura, vastly different from other planets, inspiring awe in even ancient Saints and striking fear into the hearts of all gods.

No one had ever dared to act recklessly here, for this was the burial ground of ancient Great Emperors, concealing too many secrets, and the Path to Immortality also began here.

Today, an unexpected event occurred.

A vast divine sense emanated from the depths of the starry sky, impartial and calm, fearless and unafraid, sweeping across the entire ancient star.

"Who... who is this? Even an unparalleled Great Saint wouldn't dare to probe every corner of this star, yet he actually dares to do this!"

People were astonished. Were there still such individuals in this era? So reckless, were they not afraid of enraging the ancient and mysterious existences within the seven great life forbidden zones?!

The divine sense swept across the Emperor Burial Star, and then a heroic and magnificent man descended from the sky, appearing on the ancient land of life in the Big Dipper Starfield.

"Who is this person? So incredibly powerful!" The ancestral kings of myriad races and the Saints from beyond the domain all trembled. They stared at the horizon, focusing on this powerful divine sense, feeling an inner alarm and profound dread.

This powerful fluctuation sent shivers down the spines of all the Saints, chilling them to the bone.

The Human Emperor descended upon the Big Dipper Starfield, appearing on the ancient star he had been separated from for countless ages. He had traveled from the ancient starry path, moving with effortless grace, as if the distance was negligible.

His aura permeated the surroundings, the divine might of an ancient Emperor, unsurpassed in the world. It wasn't deliberately exerted but flowed naturally, astonishing everyone!

"Who is this... has he returned from the Immortal Realm? How can there be such a person in this era!"

"Who is he? How can he be alive until now?!"

Whether it was the Primordial Forbidden Zone, the Undying Mountain, or the Immortal Mausoleum, the Divine Ruins, and others, existences within all the great life forbidden zones were awakened, uttering majestic voices filled with questions.

"He... is strikingly similar to a legendary ancient Human Emperor, from an extremely distant past."

"The Human Emperor — Lunar! It's him, it's truly him. Haven't you long since passed away in the river of time? This isn't fair!"

Within the forbidden zones of life, several ancient existences were greatly shaken, simply unable to believe any of it. No one knew their thoughts, despite having themselves endured until the present, they were still astonished by the Human Emperor's appearance.

Several supreme-level existences reacted as if facing a formidable enemy, strands of immortal radiance spilling from their eyes as they closely watched every move of the Human Emperor!

"That's it. Just like the Great Accomplished Holy Body, after his divine thought was purified, it ultimately awakened a wisp of his true spirit's will from a previous life."

Someone in the forbidden zone whispered, and the tense atmosphere eased considerably.

The Human Emperor gazed down upon the world with disdain, the eons flowing through his eyes. He stood towering between heaven and earth, taking a single step, mountains inverted, vast seas receded, and he reached everywhere.

All the people of his era had perished, everything had turned to dust. Returning to this star today, his emotions were myriad. Even the Human Emperor, facing this eternal desolation, felt a pang of sadness.

To the surprise of all Saints, he did not go to the seven great forbidden zones. Instead, he transformed into a streak of immortal light and descended upon the Western Desert, appearing before a magnificent colossal mountain.

Here, Buddhist light steamed, and the power of faith was like an ocean, illuminating all directions. It was the vast Mount Meru!

The sun and moon trembled, the stellar rivers paled. The Human Emperor ascended to the summit of Mount Meru, facing several ancient Bodhi trees and standing directly before the magnificent Great Thunderclap Temple.

"Dong..."

The sound of the bell resonated softly, spreading throughout the Western Desert and echoing across the sky, as if piercing through time and space from ancient eras.

Mount Meru trembled, the Great Thunderclap Temple shook, and the entire Western Desert glowed with intense Buddhist light, as if ancient Buddhas of all heavens were manifesting, creating a sky-shattering phenomenon.

"Could it be that the Buddha has reincarnated? Why are there such grand phenomena, Buddhist light everywhere, and chants resonating all around?" Even ordinary mortals were startled, feeling a profound intuition.

The Human Emperor ascended Mount Meru, approaching the innermost ancient grounds of Buddhism, an event rarely seen throughout history, causing a great stir across the entire Western Desert.

An immense pressure radiated outwards, flowing down from Mount Meru. All the Buddhist statues in ancient temples across the Western Desert began to glow, letting down strands of pure faith power like ribbons. All the statues of Bodhisattvas and ancient Buddhas revived, as if imbued with life.

"So that's it." The Human Emperor nodded, having grasped the essence of the Buddhism founded by Amitābha Buddha. He murmured, "Amitābha Buddha was indeed impressive."

As soon as these words were uttered, heaven and earth shook, all four directions trembled, the great bells in all ancient temples boomed, the light of faith soared to the sky, and Buddhist power permeated the air, shaking the world.

Whether on Mount Meru or in other ancient temples, numerous old monks and Buddhist disciples trembled. Who, throughout history, had dared to speak in such a manner?

This was like an elder evaluating a promising child, making them truly tremble with apprehension.

Buddhist chants reverberated deafeningly. In temple after temple, Buddhist light ignited. Old monks, disciples, and all others prostrated themselves, unable to resist bowing and worshipping towards Mount Meru.

At this moment, from the most mysterious ancient ground of Mount Meru, chaotic mist overflowed, and an ancient artifact flew forth, radiating immortal brilliance, soaring towards the supreme Human Emperor.

It was precisely the supreme Buddhist artifact—the Demon-Subduing Pestle!

This was a weapon personally forged by Amitābha Buddha the Great, the highest holy relic of Buddhism, capable of subduing demons and devils and suppressing three thousand great worlds.

"The precious pestle is awakening on its own. Is it targeting this mysterious supreme being?" Numerous ancient monks trembled. This had never happened before.

In the past, the Demon-Subduing Pestle had only awakened once on its own, when the Buddha's demonic shell, Sakyamuni, rebelled against the Great Thunderclap Temple. But even then, its might was not as overwhelming as it was today, threatening to destroy the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands.

The divine entity residing within the Demon-Subduing Pestle had completely revived, without any reservation—an event unprecedented in three hundred thousand years!

This astonished and moved everyone. The aura of an ancient Great Emperor permeated the air, as if Amitābha Buddha the Great had been reborn, leaving all divine monks and Buddhist disciples stunned.

However, to everyone's shock, the Demon-Subduing Pestle trembled, stopped before the Human Emperor, and actually bowed like a person, as if seeking forgiveness.
