Eternal Holy Emperor

Chapter 1196 - 1083: Primordial

The path ahead was broken, but Ye Chen continued to stride forward.

In an instant, everything changed. Whether it was the five senses or the six senses, all that could be perceived was an endless darkness, vast and boundless, without a glimmer of light.

Beyond the darkness, there was nothing else left.

Ye Chen felt as if he was about to fall eternally into endless darkness, unable to leave, unable to transcend, completely trapped within.

He uttered a soft shout, the Dao Divine Ability surged through his limbs and bones, the Holy Blood boiled, and the small figure of the Primordial Spirit between his brows shone, transforming into a sun, trying to illuminate all darkness and return to the light.

But it did not work; the surroundings were still pitch black, and not even the Primordial Spirit sun could shine a bit of void.

All there was, was endless darkness, and all light had disappeared.

Ye Chen’s heart and mind were sinking into it, unable to transcend, unable to surpass, forever falling within.

What on earth was this all about?

Was he destined to fall eternally into the darkness, never able to transcend for eternity?

He felt a sense of helplessness in his heart, for the first time in his past and present life, he felt so helpless.

Perhaps the choice of the path was wrong, and there was no road ahead, just endless darkness, unable to move forward anymore.

But turning back, there was no road back, surrounded by endless darkness, was there anything left?

Ye Chen did not believe in all this and continued to stride along the dark path, even if he could not see anything, relying only on his intuition to move forward boldly.

His five senses and six senses were stripped away; he couldn’t sense anything, not even a sound in this hollow void, so silent.

If one’s will was not strong enough, one would probably go insane.

Yet Ye Chen just kept moving forward, step by step, walking an unknown distance, unaware of how much time had passed.

Perhaps a day, perhaps a month, perhaps a year, perhaps a hundred years, a thousand years, ten thousand years had passed.

He forgot the passage of time and did not feel the burden of age.

He just kept walking, driven entirely by the will of his heart and mind.

It seemed a very, very long time had passed.

A hundred years?

A thousand years?

Who knows, as time was immeasurable, knowing only until a certain moment, Ye Chen had become numb, his heart and mind deeply quieted, when his body autonomously moved forward, suddenly, there appeared a dim light.

Yes, it was light, although faint, like a candle flame, yet in the endless darkness, it was so notable, so dazzling, illuminating everything, like a lighthouse in a dark sea, guiding the path forward and awakening Ye Chen from numbness.

"Is that the end of the darkness ahead..."

Ye Chen’s voice was hoarse, not knowing how many years it had been since he last spoke, but his physical energy remained, his speed accelerated, rapidly traversing, crossing tens of thousands of miles in an instant.

However, that light appeared not far away, yet seemed infinitely distant, like the edge of the world, separated by an infinite distance, visible but unreachable.

But Ye Chen did not show a hint of despair, he still moved forward steadfastly and quickly through the days.

That point of light continuously brightened, evidently drawing nearer and nearer.

Finally, one day, Ye Chen truly arrived in front of the light, discovering that it was in fact an ancient gate, an open ancient gate.

The light that illuminated and guided in the darkness was shining from the other side of the door; compared to the endless darkness, it was so striking.

With almost no hesitation, Ye Chen passed through the gate, entering the other side, suddenly facing an endlessly vast, ancient Great World, boundless and inexhaustible.

It was even larger than the Ten Thousand Domains, with the Heavenly and Ten Thousand Paths complete, the Heavenly Dao flawless, causing Ye Chen’s Ten-layered Heaven Level to boil, appearing spontaneously, incomparably radiant.

There were magnificent sun and moon rivers and mountains, precious species and beings, True Dragons, and Undying Phoenixes.

He realized this was the Mythical Era.

He had returned to the Mythical Era in the Tongxuan Land.

This was the peak and most prosperous era in history, unparalleled in its grandeur and strength, surpassing ancient and present times, witnessing many Primordial Species, with Kings presiding, and the Great Emperor’s Palace floating at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Dome, everything appeared immensely powerful.

Ye Chen frowned, wondering if he had traversed from the Tongxuan Land, crossing the endless darkness, through ancient and present, back to the previous epoch?

He couldn’t help but suspect this, as he walked along the road behind, continuing onward, ultimately crossing the River of Time, returning to that most prosperous and glorious Mythical Era.

Ye Chen traversed the mountains and Great Mountains, running between Heaven and Earth, everything appeared so real, even able to absorb the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth from the Mythical Era, so rich and pure, with a clear sense of the Heavenly and Ten Thousand Paths.

It could be said, this was an unparalleled era for cultivation.

Yet Ye Chen frowned, although it seemed like he had traversed back to this era, no beings encountered along the way seemed to notice him, and when he actively rushed forward, he passed through them without collision.

What does this mean, did he actually come to the Mythical Era, or for some reason, is he merely an observer in this epoch?

Eventually, he began to watch coldly, and felt the apocalyptic qi mechanism coming, realizing that perhaps soon, the grand destruction of myths would begin.

Sure enough, shortly thereafter, the grand destruction descended.

Heaven and Earth trembled, the cosmic barriers were torn apart, and gigantic scale-armored claws covered the sky, causing heavens to collapse and Earth to tear, heavenly stars trembling down, turning into meteors.

The ten suns in the sky fell one after another, some even being shattered alive, losing their light, plunging the Primordial Land into complete darkness.

The Mythical Era sank into a grand destruction.

And in the supreme heights of the Heavenly Dome, the supreme Emperor’s Might erupted, with Mythical Emperor and Emperor awakening, engaging in the strongest Emperor Battle against the Alien Race, affecting wide areas.

The World Tree towering in the starry sky swayed, trying to stabilize the Great World Heaven and Earth, but ultimately was severed at the waist and withered.

Ye Chen was not part of this era; all of these events could not truly affect his existence.

He saw in the distant starry sky, Heavenly Emperors and Kings coexisting, charging into the Chaos Sea for a decisive battle against the Alien Emperor and King.

Among them, there was the infinitely towering Heavenly Burial Tablet, and a magnificent, unparalleled, Golden Immortal Body supreme existence...

In the final trance, he saw the deepest part of the Alien Race Universe, where unexpectedly stood a mysterious ancient temple, floating at the cosmic center, emitting an eternal immortal brilliance.

In the ancient temple, vaguely visible, there existed a supreme presence beyond comprehension, motionless, eyes penetrating ancient and modern, observing everything in the Sealing Universe, always gazing coldly at the grand destruction of myths.

Vaguely, it seemed he heard, that all spirits of the Alien Race, whether Kings or the lowest beings, were bowing towards the direction of the ancient temple, constantly chanting a special name—

Primordial!
