Chapter 1030: Chapter 1028: Finally Waiting for You
The familiar sound penetrated here, just as the essence of reincarnation descended, disregarding space and distance, silently infiltrating this place.
The attacks of dozens of alliance powerhouses all returned to their original positions in this moment.
Everyone was shocked.
What kind of method is this?
Only Bai Yisheng, Demon Emperor, and Zi Ji knew that this was reincarnation.
Finally, the old Taoist man chuckled and uttered the first words since the war began: "You’ve lost."
He has not yet arrived.
But the attack already penetrated here, and the divine might of the contemporary Great Emperor also invisibly descended in this moment.
Very powerful.
As a contemporary Great Emperor, he blends with the Heavenly Dao, gaining the recognition of this land, mastering all things in the world.
Absolutely invincible in the human world.
Across the distant lands, the Human Clan cultivators inexplicably felt the stirring, subconsciously looking towards the direction of the Ancient City.
Next, the figure of Chen Pingping appeared in the high sky.
Compared to his former self, his physique is more robust, his blood vitality is vigorous and especially astonishing, a pair of pitch-black eyes, as if they could see through the heavens and earth, see through everything.
If you combine indifference with awe-inspiring power that transcends time, the two distinctly different temperaments are blended together in him, not awkward but rather harmonious.
He walked step by step.
The world sometimes trembles, sometimes it is silent.
Life forms across hundreds of thousands of miles shivered at this moment, as if they were about to kneel.
"Senior Brother!" Zi Ji exclaimed with joy.
"You are being naughty," Chen Pingping replied.
"..."
Indeed!
If it weren’t for being naughty, how could one have fought from the Netherworld?
Is this what humans do?
Sigh!
His words made a group of Netherworld powerhouses feel aggrieved and also very shocked.
In the past, when they saw Chen Pingping, he was just in the Saint Realm, yet how long has it been since then? He has already verified the Tao and become an Emperor, truly frightening.
If the realm could be enhanced this easily, wouldn’t the human world be filled with Great Emperors?
Chen Pingping looked at the Human Emperor: "Bai."
Bai Yisheng nodded, appearing very calm on the surface but inwardly quite resentful, you verified the Tao, but what about me?
A few ten thousand years have yielded no progress!
Yet, the Northern Demon Emperor is truly calm, he plans to forge a different path, to choose an alternative way, avoiding Chen Pingping, after all, he is a demon.
Humans and demons are different.
Chen Pingping walked calmly, greeting old friends one by one, then looked towards the Ancient City, not attacking these people, a simple glance was enough.
The true battlefield is deep within the Ancient City.
He could sense that the old Taoist man’s life origin is very weak, nearing exhaustion, he may fall in the next moment.
After a few steps, he reached the deepest part of the battlefield.
Seeing the three Heaven Emperor Realm, the first one was the undying bird, who captured that kind of undying power when verifying the Tao.
Never seen it.
It was considered a first meeting.
The second was a Goddess from the Divine Clan, a true Goddess, exceedingly beautiful, unmatched in countenance, with a graceful and alluring figure, pearly white teeth, fair skin, a head full of smooth hair with divinity shimmering within, Taoist marks were faintly visible.
That face was exceptionally exquisite, truly perfect, comparable to Wen Yuqing.
Motionless, like a snow lotus, elegant and noble in temperament, free from a speck of dust, making one feel unattainable, inspiring awe.
The third was Alien Race?
Its true form, Chen Pingping couldn’t discern, only seeing a mass of chaos, radiating brilliance.
The three Heaven Emperor Realm each had their merits, their strength unfathomable.
Yet they were blocked here by the dying old Taoist man.
Now, the old man’s life origin was about to dry up, and this heavy responsibility would naturally fall on his shoulders as the contemporary Great Emperor.
Very burdensome.
But the old Taoist has guarded the alliance for countless years, securing time for the Human Clan without complaint or regret, what right does he have to say these words?
Chen Pingping thought of his mentor, in times past, there were always some lovely people, who sacrificed everything for the survival of the Human Clan, even sacrificing their own lives.
Thinking of this, he solemnly paid respect to the old man: "Junior Chen Pingping pays his respect to Senior."
"I have always been waiting for your mentor, but she never entered the Ancient City, even though she reached the city gates..." the old man weakly said: "Later, I understood, your mentor did not enter the Ancient City because she hadn’t found her own path, nor had she found the path for the Human Clan, now... your mentor is gone, but she fulfilled her wish, having found that path."
Chen Pingping remained silent.
"You are very excellent," the old man continued: "I have seen so many Human Emperors, their beliefs firm, incredibly powerful, willing to sacrifice their lives to defend the survival and dignity of the Human Clan, but they ultimately couldn’t achieve greatness."
"Why?" Chen Pingping couldn’t understand.
Throughout the history of the Human Clan, there were so many excellent Human Emperors?
None managed to catch your eye, old man?
The old man spoke: "The cultivation isn’t right."
The cultivation world has Three Thousand Tao, each can verify the Tao and aspire to the Heaven Emperor Realm, but not every path’s upper limit can truly reach the utmost.
It can also be understood that such a path is merely a path, unable to derive mighty power, unable to evolve into the power of order.
Therefore, although they are strong, they can’t condense a God Grid and achieve divine enthronement.
The old man has been guarding here since the day the Ancient City was born, the first person he wanted to wait for was Wenliang.
But after the Investiture of the Gods shattered, Wenliang chose self-destruction, preserving the last sliver of hope for the Human Clan.
He was right.
The second person to wait for was Wen Yuqing.
A person who condensed the power of faith from an empire, possessing the God Grid, only needing to continue to achieve divine enthronement.
Unfortunately, besieged by seven Gods at the Dead Sea, her body and spirit were extinguished, even the last cycle of reincarnation broken.
The third came unexpectedly...
Also the one he holds in highest regard.
Emperor Slaying in the Saint Realm.
Slaying God Grid in the Saint Realm.
With the Heavenly Dao’s calamities, slaying Gods.
This kind of battle accomplishments, no Great Emperor in history could achieve, perhaps only the legendary Sword Immortal and the first generation Human Emperor could compare?
"Is my cultivation okay?" Chen Pingping asked.
"It’s just the beginning, the path you must walk is longer than your mentor’s, the places you must go also destined to be farther than your mentor," the old man advised: "So, you must not aim too high, you must walk grounded, eventually you will witness the summer flowers and winter snow."
"Yes!" Chen Pingping listened earnestly, his face solemn.
Hey!
After saying these, the old man sighed lightly: "That poor child."
Countless years of reincarnation, such torment is not something anyone can bear, she ultimately failed.
And he also never got to see Wen Yuqing.
"I will find a way to resurrect my mentor," Chen Pingping said, his face resolute.
The old man shook his head, saying nothing more.
At this moment, the undying bird said coldly: "Boy, you are very arrogant! Do you think we are doomed?"
Chen Pingping opened his eyes wide: "Submit or... perish..."
Straightforward words, calm in tone.
Yet the words were so domineering, far more than the old man.
Submit?
This statement, the old Taoist wouldn’t dare say, but you, a young brat dare propose?
And want them to die?
The undying bird laughed, words filled with coldness: "Did you see the situation clearly?"
