Amidst the horrified gazes of countless terrified people, a living True Immortal, illuminating the ages, descended, standing in the void.
This young man was handsome and majestic, his demeanor exuding the aura of a lion and a tyrannosaurus. His eyes were like daggers, giving him the bearing of an undisputed overlord.
"What is this?""The Emperor, he actually..."Everyone looked up, their eyes filled with bewilderment and disbelief.
No one had imagined things would turn out like this!
For countless ancient dark ages, the Emperor had not achieved a breakthrough, remaining before the Immortal Gate. Yet, now, he had broken through so suddenly. Although the Emperor had previously stated that he would break through in the next era, and the Immortal Gate would open as a result, the current timing was too sudden, still making it unimaginable and incredible.
"Heaven and Earth respond to the calamity; this era is pushed to the next generation." Standing in the void, with a surging aura, the Emperor calmly declared, "All Saints fought for the Immortal Gate, perished, and opened a new era. Thus, the next era is born. I, as prophesied, have become the True Immortal of this age, no longer hindering future generations!"
Everyone's hearts trembled. They had simply thought they would have to wait until the next era. But now, was this not truly the next era? Everyone had fallen; the Great Saints, and even all Heavenly Emperors, had perished one after another. How could this not be the end of this era and the beginning of the next? Their battle to open the Immortal Gate had perfectly aligned with the Emperor's prophecy, inadvertently advancing the change in another way. Although their direct attempt to open the Immortal Gate failed, in a sense, they had succeeded. However, this kind of success was horrifying, terrifying, and utterly unacceptable to everyone!
"We..."Everyone was stunned, goosebumps breaking out all over their bodies.
"It seemed like a victory, a victory granted to us, but ultimately, it was a defeat!" Their faces filled with sorrow, their words trailed off.
Lord Youshan was stunned, his body trembling, his face filled with disbelief, utterly convinced. He looked far up into the sky, "Lord of Reincarnation, could this, too, be part of your scheme?!"
He suddenly recalled that saying:In the adult world, there are no dreams.
In the live broadcast room, all the netizens were chilled to the bone. No one could have imagined this scene; it was truly astonishing.
"The Emperor is truly terrifying!""How could he suddenly become an Immortal out of nowhere?""I fear it's the Emperor's secret scheme! Too terrifying!""Could it be that all of this was part of his plan? Even Lord Youshan's various backup strategies?""When asked about opening the Immortal Gate in the next life, the Emperor's answer... In reality, he had already foreseen Lord Youshan's actions at the beginning of the battle and stated the outcome! Unfortunately, even someone as clever as Lord Youshan couldn't grasp the true meaning! A complete defeat, all potential rebellions suppressed, and an opportunity to open a new era!""That's just too terrifying!""The battle of wits between these two absolute geniuses is simply spectacular!"
In the sky, illuminated by endless divine light, the majestic Immortal God gently extended a hand and pressed down, saying, "All the destinies of this era have come to an end."
Across the entire land, all remaining Great Saint beings perished without exception, one after another, leaving no sound behind. Death was instantaneous.
The land was silent, filled only with skeletal remains and mountains of blood-stained bones. A mournful breeze swept across, as if passing through the divine tombs of heroes, a tragic and desolate atmosphere permeated the air, thick with the lingering essence of countless lives.
"Heaven is understood by the heart.""Earth is perceived by the heart.""The path is created by the heart."
The Emperor gazed down upon the entire blood-stained land, like an ancient being who had achieved enlightenment and returned to the mundane world, now reascending his imperial throne. His voice was calm and unhurried: "This is the order of the gifted world. Your hearts perceive heaven, observe earth, and pave your own way; this is what it means to be gifted. The universe is my heart, and my heart is the universe. What is called 'talent' is the study of the mind."
His voice slowly resonated throughout the Six Paths and Reincarnation; every living being of that age heard it. Countless people in streets and homes, with complex expressions, looked up at the sky,
"Today, everything resumes.""The old enter the underworld; the new ascend the Immortal Gate."
As these words fell, the entire world trembled. The blood-soaked era of the Dark Immortal Path drew to a close, and the curtain of a new era was slowly rising.
The Underworld.The Yellow Springs Road was overflowing. Never before in history had there been such a moment, nor such an immense number of top-tier powerhouses reincarnating, filling the path to the brim. The Yellow Springs Road was congested.
Black and White Impermanence were maintaining order.
Some could not help but weep in sorrow, singing and laughing wildly, disheveled like street beggars: "Do not wait till old age to study the Buddhist Way; lonely graves often hold the young. On the Yellow Springs Road, there's no old or young; at the Bridge of Forgetfulness, kin are sundered!"
Others had cold expressions:"Though we lost this battle, we have no regrets!""The Immortal Gate was opened in the end, but not as I wished.""The Emperor's power is not just heaven-defying; his schemes are also flawless. Since we all died in this life, aren't we now in the next? Our defeat was not unjust!"
Granny Meng, observing from a distance, also had an unsettled expression and couldn't help but exclaim, "Too many, simply too many! All the ordinary Heavenly Emperors and even Great Saints of this entire era... an old era has truly passed."
The Underworld's personnel were stretched thin.
"I wonder how the Lord will arrange them?" Black Impermanence's face was also unsettled."Will these rebellious beings be continuously suppressed in the Avici and Scorching Hells, suffering endlessly?" White Impermanence murmured, "But the Hells might not be large enough."
Although they were reluctant to say it, the law could not punish the multitude. The sheer numbers were too overwhelming.
Later, even all ordinary Heavenly Emperors were incited to participate.
If all these people were cast into hell, who would then enter reincarnation? The entire world, losing these top-tier gifted individuals, would face a severe regression.
But if the Emperor did not punish them? How would justice be served? How would the order of Heaven and Earth be established?
"I don't know," Granny Meng, also very clever, sensed the difficulty of the situation and couldn't help but say, "His Majesty's grand strategies are beyond our conjecture. He will surely find the best solution! To punish these sinners for their grave crimes of conspiring against reincarnation and disrupting the order of Heaven and Earth!"
Granny Meng turned around and looked towards the Hall of Reincarnation, her face filled with adoration.
Lord Youshan was indeed formidable. All history began with the "Godless" and ended with the "Godless," forming a perfect cycle. But the Emperor was even more formidable. He had declared from the beginning that he would become an Immortal in the next era, and indeed, at the end of the battle, after destroying one era, he became an Immortal in the next, creating an even more perfect cycle.
"This is Lord Youshan's shortcoming; powerful as his schemes were, they lacked that final touch. Otherwise, how could the title of 'Emperor' belong to His Majesty, the Lord of Reincarnation?" With a face full of admiration, she respectfully stepped into the Hall of Reincarnation.
Footsteps echoed!
Granny Meng walked into the magnificent and vast Hall of Reincarnation, gazing at the supreme, grand, and immense being seated upon the imperial throne, who, after this battle, was now the peerless True Immortal, invincible in this age. She couldn't help but bow respectfully and say, "Your Majesty, the sinners have entered reincarnation. How should they be dealt with?"
